I’m ashamed of some ofthe things the university has done with itsresearch.”Seren, who left Argonne in 1961 over con¬cern about the potential dangers of nuclearpower and has said he regrets working onthe Manhattan Project, said he would like tosee the University completely divested ofDOD funds.Cedric L. Chernick, vice-president anddirector of the office of sponsored programs(OSP), called Seren’s view “very simplis¬tic” for failing to distinguish between basicand applied research. Chernick said that theUniversity does not knowingly participte inprojects directly related to weapons devel¬opment. All eleven DOD grants are de¬signed. according to Chernick, as basic re¬search and have no specified militarypurpose as far as he knows. As for the moral implications of acceptingDOD grants, Chernick said, “Its difficult todetermine which piece of research would beapplicable to military purposes... Let’s saysomeone discovers a new drug to cure somedisease, but at a certain level the drug be¬comes toxic. The government comes alongand says ‘We’d like the University to findout how much of this drug a human beingcan take.’ Now you may say that they’replanning to use this information in warfarebut you might also say that they’re trying toestablish safety standards for the drug.”“I’m not saying one should be amoral(about accepting grants) . . . One should bevery considerate of what . . . one is doing inhis research.”Sidney Lens, peace activist and author ofthe book The Military-Industrial Complex,agreed that “there is no Chinese wall be¬tween basic research and military re¬search.” Lens, however, cites this as evi-Tum to Page 4Norton GinsburgCIA recruits hereAlthough there are no officialplans as yet, it seems likely thatCIA recruiters will be protestedwhen they come to campus onNovember 20.Turnbull said sne hoped thesame coalition which is pro¬testing the Navy recruiterwould be involved indemonstrating against the CIArecruiter.Coatsworth is also in favor ofsome protest against the CIArecruiters. He asserted thatboth the Navy and the CIA areresponsible for killing andrepressing people.A CIA employee who wouldnot give her name, said theagency “is interested in almostany undergraduates or grad¬uates.” In response to aquestion of whether the jobs theagency was looking to fill in¬cluded covert intelligence, thesource replied, ”1 suppose itcould.”She refused to comment fur¬ther and said other questionswould have to be referred to a“Mr Jones” on Monday.

CarolynMcClean on Thursday, November8.The protest, according to EmilyTurnbull of the Spartacus YouthLeague (SYL),will take place inHutchinson Court from noon to 1:30pm and consist of picket lines andspeeches.McClean said that the Navy is in¬terested in “primarily seniors withjust about any kind of degree.”“We have a lot of different typesof jobs,” she said.The planned demonstration“doesn’t bother me one way or theother,” she said.As of Wednesday, no student hadmade a request to see McClean.McClean said if there are no re¬quests made, she will not come tocampus.“This is my standard operatingprocedure,” she said.ProtestTurnbull expects the demonstra¬tion to go on even if McClean doesnot show up. Turnbull said it wouldbe a victory for the demonstratorsif no student asked for an interviewwith McClean.Adam Przeworski, professor ofpolitical science, and John H.Coatsworth, associate professor ofhistory, have endorsed the demon¬stration.Przeworski said he does not ob¬ject to the naval recruiter’s right tocome on campus, but he feels that“it is a good opportunity to under¬stand what they’re about.”Coatsworth said that the Univer¬sity should not allow the recruiterson campus. He suggested that stu¬dents interested in the armed ser¬ for November 8office’s policy of allowing any em¬ployer with “needs for the kind ofgraduates we have” to set up a re¬cruitment date.As to the demonstration, “peopleare free to express their atti¬tudes,” she said.The brochure of the career coun¬seling office includes a statementof official University policy re¬garding recruitment:“Listing of these job opportuni¬ties and arrangement of interviewsdo not of course constitute Univer¬sity endorsement of particular em¬ployers or positions.”The brochure describes the re¬sponsibility of the office as “pro¬viding communications betweeneducational institutions, businessconcerns, and government agen¬cies, and our students interested inemployment with these agen¬cies.”The brochure also states “If thestudent indicates interest in an in¬terview with . . . these employers,we endorse the students right tohave an interview.”Protest of recruiters on campusis not new to the University. In No¬vember of 1967. approximately 500people, including more than 40 fac¬ulty members protested the pre¬sence of three Dow Chemical Com¬pany recruiters on campus.The Dow representatives weresponsored by the placement officeof the Graduate School of Business.The demonstrators objected toDow on the grounds that the cor¬poration produced most of the na¬palm used in Vietnam.Then Dean of the College WayneC. Booth agreed to the principle ofthe students’ right to protest, butnot their right to interfere with theactivities of the recruiters.The protest was peaceful. And bya vote of almost 10 to 1, 100 of theprotestors affirmed the right ofbusiness students to invite andspeak freely with whomever theychose.Career Counseling’s Julie Monsonvices could see the recruiters offcampus.“It is more important to defendhuman values than to defend theirright to recruit,” he said. “Theydon’t need our defense.”Some coalition members haveexpressed extreme anger that theNavy “would dare set foot on thiscampus”. The SY’L has also calledattention to the U.S. Naval base atGuantanamo Bay, Cuba “as alaunching base for U.S. imperial¬ism’s bloody invasions of CentralAmerica.”Other members of the coalitioninclude the Progressive Union, theInternational Socialist Organiza¬tion, the New American Move¬ment, (NAM) and the Revolu¬tionary Communist YouthBrigade.RecruitingJulie C.

Stu¬dents. faculty and campus workers shouldbe incensed that these representatives of themost powerful and vicious armed forces inthe world dare to set foot on this campus!1500 people were outraged last Springwhen Robert McNamara’s efforts at geno¬cide and imperialist economic strangulationwere rewarded by the U of C administrationas “international understanding.’’ The de¬monstrators rightly saw McNamara as re¬sponsible for U.S. imperialism’s dirtiestwar — Vietnam. This same outrage shouldbe directed against the U.S. military and itsrecruiters, for they are the executors ofMcNamara’s orders. The rapacious prose¬cution of the war in Vietnam, the mining ofHaiphong harbor, the systematic shelling ofcoastal villages and nocturnal sorties of ter¬ror against the civilian population — this isthe work of the U.S. Navy and its officercorps. And when the bourgeoisie is not ac¬tively waging such wars for “democracy,”the Navy advises and equips butchers likethe Chilean admirals so they can murder30,000 workers and leftists. The Navy cur¬rently runs the U.S. military base at Guan¬tanamo, which since its establishment hasbeen used as a launching base for U.S. impe¬rialism’s bloody invasions of Central Ameri¬ca and which is now maintained as a basefor provocations against the Cuban de¬formed workers state like the 1963 Bay ofPigs invasion and Carter’s recent mock in¬vasion.The Spartacus Youth League has initiatedunited front demonstrations at U of C andNorthwestern to oppose the presence ofthese imperialist hitmen, around the de¬mands: NO TO THE DRAFT! NAVY RE¬CRUITERS OFF CAMPUS! U.S. OUT OFGUANTANAMO! As the ruling class seeksto reimpose the draft and morally and mili¬tarily rearm for yet another imperialist warit is crucial for students, faculty andworkers to demonstrate their opposition tothe U.S. war machine. Not one soldier, notone penny for the imperialist army!At the recent Midwest Conference againstthe Draft, held at Northwestern Oct. 19-20,only the Spartacus Youth League fought fora revolutionary socialist perspective offighting both the draft and the very exis¬tence of the bourgeois military. The armyand navy are the heart and soul of the state,the guarantor of the bourgeoisie’s rule. Vol¬unteer or drafted there can be no such thingas a “good” capitalist army. But the confer¬ence voted to establish yet another pro-cap¬italist, single issue, “Anti-draft" coalitionwhich includes such right-wing, racist orga¬nizations as the Libertarians (presumablyMidCard would let the fascist German-American Bund, which opposed the draft inWWII also be members!), to pressure thecapitalist politicians in 1980. But even if thepoliticians are afraid to vote back the unpo¬pular draft now, you can be sure they willimpose it after the elections. The U.S. bour¬geoisie needs a reliable army, and a volun¬teer army with a large component of blacksand poor will have little interest in supress-ing strikes and ghetto rebellions, or invad¬ing Latin America or Africa for the bour-geiosie. The only way to end imperialistwars is through socialist revolution!When the SYL raised its politics and pro¬posed to demonstrate against Navy re¬cruiters and ROTC at Northwestern No¬vember 9, supporters of the “Democratic”Socialist Organizing Committee (DSOC),who helped organize the midwest anti-draftconference and who support a strong U.S.“national defense”, initiated a witchhuntagainst us. They have attempted to get usdriven off campus and out of the PSC as“disrupters." And the NU administrationhas threatened to arrest anyone at the de¬monstration who can’t produce a NU ID!The spectre of communism and a militantdemonstration are enough to send the NUadministration and its back-handed sup¬porters in DSOC into a frenzy.At the U of C Political Forum recentlysponsored a phony “debate” between Rep¬resentative Paul McCloskey and NU profes¬sor Charles Moskos over the best way togrease the skids for the draft with “nationalservice.” The Political Forum even invitedmembers of the military to campus on Sat¬urday, Oct. 20 to lead workshops on “mili¬ tary service!"

What I do notunderstand are the statistics which thegraduate student in economics, JorgeSelume, sent to the Maroon. Numbers in thiscase represent only a relative truth,understandable only by those who daily dealwith it. I would like to relate one of my per¬sonal experiences when I visited Chile twoyears ago.Upon arriving in Santiago with a very badcold, I was taken to the Emergency area ofone of the main hospitals in that city. Sincethis happened on a Sunday night, the doctorsuggested taking a chest X-ray the next dayin another hospital to rule out the diagnosisof pleuritis. This test could not be performedon the premises, because “this is only anemergency pavilion.” On Monday, I went toanother hospital, where I did part of my stu¬dent training and worked some 13-14 yearsago. When my turn came to be seen by theRadiology Department, I was told “we aresorry, but since we have been out of filmlately, we cannot give you an X-ray; we onlygive radioscopies nowadays." Perhaps forMr. Selume this doesn’t mean much,because this statement — unfortunately —was given without numbers, and I, as a pa¬tient was not told that:a) in a radioscopy, as opposed to an X-rayfilm, no information gets photographed;b) in a radioscopy, the exposure time isapproximately ten times longer than that ofa regular X-ray picture. Since he seems toknow something about numbers, he candeduce too that a radioscopy is less safethan an X-ray film. We can also deducesomething about the kind of medical ser¬vices given to the Chilean population. As amedical technologist graduated from theUniversity of Chile about 13 years ago, Idon’t recall ever having seen situations likethe one I went through. Moreover, Iremember quite clearly that the provision ofpublic health services was a good exampleof an advanced system of socializedmedicine.As for the rest of the numbers given byMr. Selume, I can add that my friends werecomplaining about the high cost of registra¬tion in the “public” schools. He is right tosay that “no elementary school, no highschool and no university has been trespass¬ed to the private sector.” But what he islacking is the information about the pro¬hibitive cost of what used to be an almost en¬tirely FREE public educational system.One more fact that I observed (and I say“fact,” not “percentage”), is the increasingnumber of people of all ages begging in thestreets of Chile. And this sign of poverty isaccompanied by another augmentedplague: prostitution, not only of adultwomen, but now of girls of pre-adolescentage.So, Mr. Selume, your statistics might bequite approrpiate to help you pass a coupleof courses at the University of Chicago, butit certainly does not reflect “a betterunderstanding of the real situation in Chile"(the quotation is your own wording).Since I have family living in Chile, andsince I have known a specific case in whicha Chilean student of economics at thisUniversity served as an informer to thePinochet regime, plus the fact that the ma¬jority of the Chileans in the School of Economics are engaged with the currentgovernment of Chile. I request to have myname withheld.another graduate student,but not in economics.name withheld by requestDefendingChile’s peopleTo the Editor:On Oct. 26 the Maroon published a letterfrom Mr. Jorge Selume, graduate student ofeconomics, under the title “Chile Defense”.I think that the Maroon chose a title which,at the very least, was ambiguous.All Chileans in one way or another defendChile. Also, the Latin American countries,as well as the rest of the world, appreciateand admire the Chilean people. But certain¬ly it is one thing to defend Chile, and some¬thing else to defend Pinochet’s dictatorship.In this sense, to criticize the massive andpersistent violations of human rights perpe¬trated by the military junta does not implyan attack on the people of Chile. On the con¬trary, such criticisms show a spirit of soli¬darity and brotherhood sought by the widestspectrum of individuals and organizationssuffering Pinochet’s nightmare.Anybody can discuss Ms. Mahaffey’sstatements and figures, as Mr. Selume did.But what is beyond discussion is Mahaffey’sstand in favor of the Chilean people. Her of¬ficial visit and research in Chile last year,and the documented report she delivered toDetroit’s City Council were motivated bythe desire to know the conditions of socialwork and social welfare under Pinochet’srepressive government. Mahaffey alsowanted to learn in what ways the US govern¬ment and multinationals were responsiblefor the fascistic policies carried out by themilitary junta; how the monetary measuresof the “Chicago Boys” are linked with thedictatorship, and what possible conse¬quences those measures would have if ap¬plied in this country. That’s why theMaroon’s title, “Chile Defense” was not ac¬curate or fair, if one then interprets Ms. Ma¬haffey’s criticisms of the junta as beingequivalent to attacks on Chile. On the con¬trary, in her position as a Detroit Council-woman, and former president of the Nation¬al Association of Social Workers, Mahaffeyhas been on the front line of solidarity withthe Chilean people.It has been so hard to excuse or explainPinochet’s crimes and dictatorship thateven the US government tries to dissociateitself from a regime the American officialshave called a “pariah", although it was theUS government and multinationals thatcreated it. Even more telling, it is the sameeconomic advisors of the Chilean junta atthe U. of C. that refuse to be linked to Pin¬ochet’s murders and repression, arguingthat their advice is just technical, “apoliti¬cal”, an argument that is singularly diffi¬cult to believe.As for Mr. Selume’s letter, I want to ask,first, why didn’t he provide his sources of in¬formation, as Mahaffey did? Second, whatcomprises the military junta’s concept andfields of “social services" as compared withthose of Allende’s government? Third, whatwas the amount of money corresponding toAllende’s 27.9%, and Pinochet’s 53.8% ex¬penditure in social services respectively in1973 and 1979, compared to the total amountof money used by both governments? Thesequestions are important on two accounts: onthe one hand, it is the stated goal of the juntaand the “Chicago Boys” to reduce the role ofthe government in the economy, and there¬fore the size of public expenditure. On theother hand, the kind of economic construc¬tion presented by Mr. Selume can be mis¬leading. I can say, for instance, that I gave60% of the money in my wallet to the RedCross, while my aunt only gave 30% of hers,without realizing that she had four times asmuch money altogether. Of course nobodycould say that I gave more money in realterms, than my aunt did — as somebodywho doesn’t know economics, or who wantsto deceive would do. Finally, what would bethe figures used by Mr. Selume related notonly to the years 1973 and 1979, but also tothe years comprising Frei’s, Allende’s, andPinochet’s governments?The reason for these questions is not a plotagainst Mr. Selume’s precious time, but2 — The Chicago Maroon — Friday, November 2, 1979 In defense ofBy Gidon D. RembaThe recent controversy over the publicshowing of two X-rated films by a campusdormitory has provided an opportunity forsome feminists to express their views onwhat they consider the deleterious social ef¬fects of such films. Mr. Ken Wissoker, in anopinion piece in the Oct. 19 Maroon, has of¬fered us the essentials of the anti-porno¬graphy case. I believe that the argumentshe marshals are unconvincing, based asthey are on erroneous assumptions and falseanalogies.Mr. Wissoker’s main thesis is that porno¬graphy is “an outgrowth and perpetuationof the same attitudes which lead to rape,”since it “represents women as willing ob¬jects whose purpose is to give pleasure tomen.” These attitudes, he asserts, promotethe belief in men’s “power to dehumanize,use and discard” women. The similarity be¬tween rape and pornography, in his view,would be that both “objectify” women andhence (sic!) “dehumanize” them.Now the act of rape does indeed reflect anattitude of dehumanization and of abusivepower towards women. But it is much, muchmore. It is a violent act, perpetrated bythose who are undoubtedly prone to physicalviolence and crime in other respects: it is, Ibelieve, the product of a disturbed mind.Mr. Wissoker’s first fallacy is in believingthat rape is an essentially sexual crime. Forif it is mainly a form of sexual aberration orsexual disturbance, then its root causes areto be sought specifically in the sexual atti¬tudes of the society which produces the ra¬pist. But clearly it is not a particular sexualorientation which per se leads to acts ofrape. For if this were so, one might expectthose who are exposed to pornographicfilms and literature, and who generally sub¬scribe to the sexual attitudes which they em¬body, to be especially prone to committingrape, or at least to condoning it. We wouldreadily expect one who enjoyed viewing ra¬cist anti-black films to be especially proneto lynching blacks, or at least to supportingracial segregation and, where “necessary”,physical assaults on black individuals. Sincethe analogy of thought leading to action doesnot hold in the case of the “pornographic at¬titude” and rape, we must seek the causes ofthe latter elsewhere than in the former sex¬ual attitude.Mr. Wissoker admits that those whoviewed the films shown on campus probablynever have and never will rape anyone.What, then, distinguishes those who viewpornographic films and who have little pro¬clivity to rape a woman, from those peoplewho in fact do? If Mr. Wissoker’s analysis iscorrect, it would not be a certain sexual atti¬tude, which on his opinion both rapists andnonrapists favorable to pornography share.Consequently, the implication of his positionis that anyone who has ever ogled a Playboyor reveled in a Penthouse is potentially, atleast, a rapist: if only his conscience were tocease restraining him, he would move fromthe passive intellectual and perceptual de¬humanization of women in the viewing ofpornography, to their active physical abuse.What his view amounts to is a conception ofthe rapist as ultimately a “pomographer”,who cannot bridle his impulses, or who hasnever learned to. He is, more speciously,simply a man, like yourself or myself, whois however willing to act out in reality whatyou or 1 only permit ourselves to entertain insexual and cinematic fantasy.I am well aware that Mr. Wissoker doesnot assert the above statements explicitlyand that he would prefer to deny them. Butsimply to invite him to be more precise andtrustworthy. If he ever succeeds in persuad¬ing us through economic figures that Pino¬chet’s regime is by far the best for the Chi¬leans, then only one question would remain.Why doesn’t Pinochet allow free elections,so that the Chilean people can elect him overevery other candidate, leftist or rightist, tobe “El Supremo”, once and for all? Certain¬ly the answer will not come from the econ¬omists (the “Chicago Boys” can rest inpeace), but from the military junta’s psy¬chiatrists and creditors.Primitivo Rodriguez Osegueragraduate student in history(a free lance “wet brain”)pornographyas they are entailed by his understanding(or misunderstanding) of the relation be¬tween rape and pornography, he cannotdeny these implications without abandoningthe viewpoint which spawned them.In fact, the rapist’s sexual attitudes differradically from those of the producer of por¬nography and of his viewers. The rapistdoes not believe, as the pornographer does,that sexual activities between consentingadults are in themselves enjoyable and mor¬ally acceptable. For he does not believe thathe needs anyone’s consent for the skewedand perverse expression of his “sexuality”.Nor does he adhere to any discernablemoral standards, applicable to all persons,as to which activities are morally accept¬able and which morally reprehensible.Let us return for a moment to Mr. Wis-soker’s analogy between racism and what Ihave called the pornographic attitude. In hisarticle he claims that while there is a “largedifference” between “saying degradingthings” about black people and lynchingthem, there is nonetheless an analogy be¬tween the way such racist comments pro¬mote lynchings and that in which porno¬graphy ostensibly encourages rape. Onewho enjoys a photograph or film of awoman’s body purely as an object of sexualpleasure is, in Mr. Wissoker’s eyes, as guiltyof dehumanizing, racist-like attitudes as isone who displays racial contempt and bigot¬ry towards blacks. Apart from trivializingthe true causes of rape, the difference ofcourse is that while the racially prejudicialmilieu of the South did indeed directly fostersuch acts as lynching and the entire phe¬nomenon of slavery, the primary social con¬text of the rapist is not sexist mass society.It is rather that subculture where violence,robbery and murder prevail, in which indi¬viduals take what they want, whether it bematerial objects in a store window, orwomen, for the expression of their resent¬ment and desire for sexual brutality.I do not wish to deny the obvious fact thatrape involves a clear and very prominentsexual component. On the contrary, I wishonly to show that the sexual component issecondary to the desire to commit violence— violence specifically aimed at women.The difference is a subtle one; but it be¬comes significant when we seek the cause ofrape. If, as I am arguing, it is basically aviolent crime which employs sex as itsmeans and women as its objects, then whatmust be eradicated is not the objectificationof the female body, but the violence and lackof respect for others’ bodies and propertywhich prevails to some extent in society at large, and in a far greater measure in thefamilies and subcultures which produce theperpetrators of rape. Were the male seg¬ment of society to alter completely its viewof women, refusing to regard them as ‘sexobjects’ — so long as nonsexual violence be¬tween people remained, so would rape, evendespite the absence of pornography. Forthere would always be those deranged indi¬viduals who perceived themselves as havingbeen “hurt” by a girlfriend or mother, andwho transferred their anger to women as awhole, regarding the toleration of violenceper se in such a society as granting them li¬cense to act on their hatred. It is the acts,not merely the attitudes, which we condonethat determine just how far it is permissibleto allow one’s emotions to surface as behav¬ior.I do not believe that the sexual objectifica¬tion of women is the ideal attitude in male-female relationships, and would find it high¬ly distressing if men related to women, andwomen to men, only as sexual objects andnot as persons. But sexual objectification is,I believe, an intrinsic part of healthy, re¬spectful, loving relationships between menand women. It can be found as well amongmany women vis-a-vis men, and notwith¬standing the increasing confidence ofwomen today, and the existence of Playgirl,has not “yet” created the female rapist.When taken alone, it is not pernicious or sin¬ful (as your mother wanted you to believe)or conducive to physical violence and moraldecay (as Mr. Wissoker and Co. would likeus to believe). It is, at worst, a preoccupa¬tion with one aspect of what can be a fullermultifaceted human relationship. Thosewho adhere to it exclusively surely miss outon much in interpersonal relations; butthere is nothing intrinsically wrong withsuch a one-sided relationship, just as it is not“wrong” to choose to savor the physical tex¬ture of a painting or sculpture, as an art ob¬ject, to the detriment of its color and style.In human relationships one may objectify aperson by being interested in that personprimarily for physical/sexual reasons, yetstill treat him or her with respect. Manypornographic films and magazines do justthis, containing as they do no physical vio¬lence and existing for the erotic pleasure ofsexually liberated adults.There is, then, a basic fallacy inherent inthe view of pornography’s detractors. In ig¬noring the metaphorical character of theirslogan — “pornography is violence againstwomen” — they take it far too literally, as¬suming that the difference between porno¬graphy and rape is purely one of degree.Both, they think, are manifestations of oneand the same violent essence: only one isperceptual and representational, and “leadsto” or “promotes” the higher and more dan¬ gerous form of violence that is physical —much as seemingly innocuous “soft” drugswere thought to encourage their users to“graduate” to more harmful “hard” drugs.Just as heroin addiction is not the result of asociety tolerant of marijuana, so rape is notthe product of a society tolerant of porno¬graphy.The most serious flaw in the anti-porno¬graphy movement is that it regards allforms of explicit sexual materials as violentsimply because men and women are depict¬ed as viewing each other exclusively in sex¬ually objectifying ways. As a result, a veryuseful and important distinction is ob¬scured: that between violent films, televi¬sion programs and literature — which in¬cludes a most repugnant subclass of violentpornography — and nonviolent films and lit¬erature, whose subject when erotic is sim¬ply sex for its own sake. Given Mr. Wis¬soker’s view, one cannot even draw thisdistinction with regard to films in general orwith regard to pornographic films in partic¬ular. When we employ the terms “violence”and “pornography” in such metaphoricallyslovenly and undiscriminating ways, wepreclude the possibility of seeing the depic¬tion of violence, both sexual and nonsexual,as the morally contemptible attitude.In conclusion, I should like to point out amuch overlooked aspect relating to the po¬litical character of the anti-pornographymovement. When an inherently liberal andliberating movement such as feminism be¬comes radicalized, it sometimes turns in anironic full circle, becoming a reactionary so¬cial force. Such conserving and even reac¬tionary tendencies can now be discerned inthe views of the anti-pornography move¬ment of today. We have only to look at thosesegments of society which support, and evenattempted to join, the anti-pornographymarch through New York's Times Squareon October 20: anti-abortionists, anti-homo- Opinionsexuals, and people who generally supportconservative social causes whose aim is todeny or limit individuals’ personal and so¬cial choices. According to the New YorkTimes of Oct. 21, a female college studentwho participated in the march explained:“There are a lot of feminist issues I wouldnot agree with — I am against abortion —but this anti-pornography move I fully sup¬port.” How strange indeed that the feministmovement has all of a sudden struck a re¬sponsive chord with this otherwise unsym¬pathetic young woman! It is apparent thather opposition to both abortion and porno¬graphy is the sort of connection that thesefeminists find most unwanted: how strangethen that they remain oblivious to the con¬servative appeal which their anti-porno¬graphy movement possesses. The day is notfar when Ms. Gloria Steinem, who took partin the march, will be flanked by Mrs. PhyllisSchlafly, leader of the nationwide anti-E.R.A. crusade and protector of the “disin¬tegrating American family”, who togetherwill cry in moral outrage: Down withsmut!In addition, a group from the “MoralityAction Committee”, a group of fine upstand¬ing citizens from Middle America who de¬test moral corruption, particularly if it in¬volves carnal delight, tried to join themarch, carrying a banner which read:“Protect Our Children.” (One wonders whattheir children would be doing in TimesSquare to begin with.) To quote the Timesagain: “Several organizers of the marchtold members of the group that becauseProtect Our Children’ was the slogan usedby the anti-homosexual movement led byAnita Bryant, that banner and their groupcould not take part in their march.” Finally,the Times reports, “a man holding an anti¬abortion, anti-homosexual poster was tack¬led by three of the women marchers, whograbbed the sign and ripped it up.”To be sure, the liabilities of a politicalmovement cannot be judged solely by thetypes of political organizations and individu¬als it attracts. Indeed. I have suggested thatthe existing anti-pornography drive bejudged on the speciousness of its argumentsand rationale, as well as the lack of discrim¬ination displayed in the selection of the ob¬jects it attacks. But the approval and sup¬port of conservatives and of those opposedto the hard-won social and sexual freedomsof the past decade — some of which are stillbeing tenaciously fought for — is perhaps in¬dicative of the social implications of thisnew movement.Gidon D.

They wereall there, the deans, the faculty, the admin¬istration. “Come with us, come on,” theysaid.She was firm. “No. Each year the GreatPumpkin rises out of the most sincere quad¬rangles in the world. Look around. There’sno hypocrisy here. Nothing but sincerity asfar as the eye can see.”“You blockhead,” Reneker roared, look¬ing sickly, dressed up as a boat person.“How can you waste your Halloween in the Shoreland, Hanna and Charlie waited in the teacher's scorn. That's nothing compared toquadrangles. And waited. And waited.The gang returned. “What a way to spendHalloween,” J.Z. said.“You think you’re so smart,” Hanna re¬torted, “just wait until the Great Pumpkingets here!”But J.Z., Rock n’ Roll, and the rest of thegang just walked away laughing.“All right, where is he?” Charlie said.“He’ll be here,” Hanna replied.“I hope so, I have my reputation to pro¬tect.“Just look around. Nothing but sincerityfor as far as the eye can see.” Hanna ges¬tured all around the quads, from the Admin¬istration Building to Kent, Eckhart toHarper, Stuart to Cobb. “Just think, Char-lip, when the Great Pumpkin rises out of theads we’ll be here to see him. What's that?. ? Is it . . . ?Chris Persans ^ There was a stirring behind the C bench.w s /msrjleas were lost on her ears.

Whethertis nobler to await the Pumpkin or go outand stuff my face?” Finally he decided tojoin her, and followed her trail out to thequads, to await the Pumpkin.So they sat and waited. And waited.

Uh oh. I said if.One little slip like that can cause the GreatPumpkin to pass you by.“Oh Great Pumpkin, where are you?”Day dawned and the Turk went out anddragged Hanna to bed. Later that day J.Z.came into her office.“Well, Hanna, another Halloween hascome and gone.

Another Halloween had come andgone.The Chicago Maroon - Friday, November 2. 1979 - 3Raymond Bowen, Near East scholar, dead at 76Raymond A. Bowman, professor emeritusin the Oriental Institute, died Monday, Oc¬tober 29. He was 76.Teacher and scholar, Bowman was one ofthe world’s leading authorities on Aramaic,the ancient Semitic language which was theimperial tongue of the Persian Empire andthat spoken at the time of the New Testa¬ment. Bowman devoted his life to the studyand translation of that language along withBiblical Hebrew and Ugaritic, a languageclose to Hebrew but written in a stylesimilar to cuneiforms.Shortly before his death, he completed hissecond volume of translation of Aramaictexts from Persepolis, the ancient capital ofPersia It will be published by the Institute. Bowman was also an English stylist, and hiscommentaries on the Biblical books of Ezraand Nehemiah are considered among thegreat Biblical commentaries.Although a productive scholar, Bowmanis also remembered as a bouyant teacher,and in teaching the Biblical Hebrew coursehere for over thirty years, he taught or ex¬amined many present members of the facul¬ty.Norman Golb, professor of Near Easternlanguages and civlizations said, “I learnedmore from him than from anyone else howto study an ancient Semitic text with preci¬sion and care. It was his devotion to thewords and letters of a text which pointed theway for me to study ancient Hebrew andother Semitic texts. “He was a very fair person and a princeamong scholars,’’ Golb said.Both Bowman’s house in Hyde Park, andlater his retirement home in Harvard, Il¬linois, were filled with Aramaic tablets andthe sounds of scores of roller canaries, someof which were trained to sing.Bowman earned his doctorate from theUniversity in 1935, after earningundergraduate and graduate degrees fromNorthwestern University, and joined thefaculty the same year. In addition to theOriental Institute, he had appointments inthe Near Eastern, New Testament, and ear¬ly Christian literature departments. He waschairman of the Near Eastern departmentfrom 1962 to 1968.-A.P.Local Kennedy campaign beginsBy Chris IsidoreEven before Mayor Byrne’s endorsementof Senator Edward Kennedy for President,two separate groups, one on campus, theother a community based group, formed towork for his election.According to leaders in both groups, theorganizations may soon coordinate ac¬tivities, but as of yet they have little contactwith one another, and have different objec¬tives.The campus organization, which is still inits early stages with only 15 students now ac¬tive, is now trying to contact other campusorganizations for endorsements and sup¬port. It plans to hold forums in the future to“spell out how Senator Kennedy stands onthe issues.” They also plan a student voterregistration drive, and are trying to arrangefor political science students to receivecredit for working on the campaign.Jim Osborn, a second year student who isthe head of the campus organization, hopesfor a wide range of support on campus. Hedoesn’t expect the ties between SenatorKennedy and Robert S. McNamara tobecome an issue here. McNamara, whoseties to the Kennedy family weredemonstrated by his presence at the an¬ nouncement of Kennedy’s campaign com¬mittee last Monday, was the center of con¬troversy on campus last spring. More than1600 students and faculty protested when hewas given a peace prize for internationalunderstanding.“I was one of those people who stood outthere and protested,” said Osborn. “But Ithink that there are too many other impor¬tant things which Kennedy has to offer toconcentrate on these ties" I don’t believethat the ties are even that strong betweenTeddy and his brothers’ advisors, so I don’tthink that will become an issue (here).”The next scheduled meeting of the cam¬pus organization will be Tuesday night inthe Ida Noyes Library. Those interested cancontact Osborn at the Shoreland in Rm 1134.Local political activists have also becomeinvolved in the campaign. IndependentDemocratic State Central CommitteemanSam Ackerman has convened a group ofSouth Side activists who are working to fieldindependent convention delegates commit¬ted to Kennedy. Even though the RegularDemocratic Organization appears ready tobreak with tradition and field delegatescommitted to Kennedy instead of uncom¬mitted delegates, Ackerman’s group isready to run their own slate.“We intend to field a group of delegates and alternates regardless of who else is inthe field,” he said.If the Regular Democrats field their ownKennedy delegates, the Kennedy vote couldbe split, giving Carter a chance in the firstdistrict. Carter did not run in the citydistricts in 1976, but the Illinois Carter —Mondale committee plans to run delegatesin all districts this time.“We have had people coming to us wan¬ting to work for Carter in all city districts,”said Mike Keptner of Illinois Carter — Mon¬dale. “The response here has been muchbetter than ever imagined, even after themayor’s announcement.”Ackerman said that he was not surprisedby the Byrne endorsement, but that some inhis group, “were a little surprised that theorganization won’t run uncommitteddelegates this time.”Ackerman’s group includes Fifth WardAlderman Larry Bloom, Fifth WardDemocratic Committeeman Alan Dobry,and Timuel Black, candidate for StateRepresentative in the local 22nd District. Allare independent Democrats. Those interest¬ed in working in the first congressional dis-sional district group should contact Acker¬man’s secretary, Arlien Rubin, during theday at 263-4287, or Ackerman in the eveningsat 268-1356.Defense grants -Continued from Page 1dence that the University should separateitself from military research of all kinds.“Some scientists like to fool themselves.They tell themselves there’s no connectionbetween what they’re doing and what thePentagon wants done . . . but the connectionis clear.”At stake, according to critics of DOD re¬search on campus, is the University’s intel¬lectual integrity and the scientists’ right toknow the ultimate purpose of their re¬search.Only one, Victor Barcilon, professor ofgeophysical sciences, said he had anydoubts about the DOD’s motives in fundinghis research. Barcilon’s grant is sponsoredby the Office of Naval Research (ONR), aDOD subsidiary, and is titled “InverseProblems in Geophysics.” The money isbeing used to study the internal structure ofthe earth after earthquakes. Asked why theONR would pay him to examine this subject,Barcilon replied, “Your question is one Ihave often wondered about... to tell you thetruth I don’t know what their idea is. It maysound preposterous, but I think the Office ofNaval Research is the most likely to sponsorpure research.”Barcilon said he thought that grants fromthe ONR’s sister organizations, the ArmyResearch Office (ARO) and the Air Forceresearch branch, are more likely to bedirected towards specific military applica¬tions. Six of the eleven DOD grants are spon¬sored by one of these two groups.Floyd J. Gould, Hobart W. Williams Pro¬fessor in the Graduate School of Business,and the recipient of an ONR grant to con¬duct mathematical research, said he wouldbe “amazed” if his investigatibn could beapplied to warfare-related purposes. Healso pointed out that several non-militarysciences, such as statistics, have been ad¬ vanced by ONR-sponsored programs.Using economic principles, Gould defend¬ed the DOD research agencies, saying thatif they were eliminated, the NationalScience Foundation (NSF) would have a vir¬tual monopoly on government grants. This,he said, would politicize the grant-awardingprocess and lead to a decline in the range of“acceptable” research topics.Chemick said that the University does notattempt to find out what the armed forceseventually do with research performedhere. Such a process, he said, would requirea much larger staff than his office now has.In any case, according to Chernick, if theuniversity began to discriminate againstDOD grants, the government could sponsordefense research through the NSF or anyother federal agency.Glantz, who is now a professor of medi¬cine at the University of California at SanFrancisco, criticized both of Chemick’spoints. He denied that the cost of trackingdown military uses of basic research wouldbe prohibitive, and termed Chernick’s rea¬soning “a typical bureaucratic response.”As for defense research funded through ci¬vilian agencies, Glantz was skeptical thatmany people would be deceived. He cited anexperiment he conducted wherein studentswere given both DOD and NSF grant de¬scriptions and asked to distinguish betweenthe two. The experiment showed, Glantzsaid, that the students were able to identifythe DOD grant in eighty-five per cent of thecases.Glantz said he thought academic institu¬tions are “fairly well compromised” notonly by DOD grants but by their dependenceon government grants in general. “It’s got¬ten to the point where ... a facultymember’s career can be undermined if hisresearch interests aren’t within the areas designated as priorities by the govern¬ment.” While he doesn’t believe that Uni¬versities should stop all military research,Glantz said he would like the government toconduct more of this research in its own la¬boratories.Actual purposesA study conducted at Stanford in 1971 byDr. Stanton A. Glantz and Norm V. Albersrevealed “great differences” between whatacademic researchers believed the purposeof their work to be and the actual purpose,as outlined in the DOD’s Defense Documen¬tation Center (DDC) forms. Although mostinvestigators described their projects aspurely scientific in their grant proposals, al¬most every corresponding DDC form listeda specific military aim for the project.The grant proposals for University con¬tracts are filed in the OSP but are not avail¬able to the public. Chernick said that theproposals are the “intellectual property” ofthe principal investigators and contain con¬fidential information on the investigators’salaries.The Stanford study also showed that mostgrants are proposed to the DOD by the prin¬cipal investigator rather then vice versa.This led many researchers to believe thatthey were working on projects with no rela¬tion to military goals. However, Glantz andAlbers found that since the DOD receivesfour to ten times as many grant proposals asit can fund, the department can select thosewith the most relevance to its objectives.Seven of the eleven principal investiga¬tors were available for comment. All saidthat the grants they received were to theirknowledge strictly for basic research andmost didn’t believe that any military usecould be made of the results they were likelyto achieve.4 _ xne Chicago Maroon — Friday, November 2, 1979 News BriefsHavighurst honoredRobert J. Havighurst, professor emeritusof education and human development, willreceive the first Brookdale Award for socialand behavioral research in gerentology atthe Gerentology Society’s annual meeting inWashington, D.C., November 25.The award, which carries a $20,000 sti¬pend, honors Havighurst as ‘the pre¬eminent social scientist in the field. But healso exemplifies, in his personal instance,the kind of life that gerentologists are seek¬ing to create — a long and continuingly pro¬ductive life.”Havighurst is approaching his 80th birth¬day. In the last year he has completed a newedition of his textbook Society and Educa¬tion as well as a study on the productivity of70-year-olds. In the late 1940s he introducedthe first social science course on aging to beoffered by an American university.Juvenile Courtvolunteers soughtThe Organization of Black Students (OBS)is again sponsoring a volunteer drive in con¬junction with the Cook County JuvenileCourt. During a campus visit this month,Joan Watson of the Juvenile Court spokewith students about the program. Watsonsaid that volunteers were needed for at least8 hours a month to work with youths asfriends and role models. Watson stressedthe importance of a volunteer’s commit¬ment, pointing out that it is necessary to beconsistent and that the volunteer should ex¬pect resistence to his efforts from the youthand his family. Those interested in thischallenging project should contact Charles(Tony) Knight at the OBS office, third floor,Ida Noyes Hall.

Block,president of the Hyde Park Historical So¬ciety. Mrs. Block was recently honoredby the Illinois State Historical Society forher book Hyde Park Houses, an InformalHistory, 1856-1910. The book is publishedby the University of Chicago Press and isavailable at all local bookstores.The Maroon regrets the error and weapologize to Mrs, Blockthe grey city journalTaking the College to taskby Lisa von DrehleThe Dean's Student Task Force on Educa¬tion in the College is a name which has ap¬peared in The Maroon several times butwhich still remains unclear to many peopleon campus. Recent conversations with TaskForce members and with Jonathan Z. Smithhave helped to clear up the mystery behindthe Task Force and to point out some prob¬lems in the College which they hope to dis¬cuss.David Shute, a Task Force co-founder,began with an explanation of what theTask Force is actually about. "We aretrying to bring the educational ideals of U ofC into reality. There is a gap between rheto¬ric and practice which needs to be bridged.We are not necessarily concentrating onfinding new ways to do things but on con¬structive criticism of the way things arebeing done now." He cited an example ofone problem which he sees in the Collegenow: "There are more graduate studentsteaching here now than there were fiveyears ago and yet the Admissions Depart¬ment still refuses to acknowledge this. Witha little more effort from the faculty, with alittle more effort from the students and theadmin, situations like this could be avoided,or, at least, more honestly presented."Shute, a third year student in the college,founded the Task Force along with fellowthird year student Larry McNally. Bothwere participants in the Little Eleven col¬lege conference which took place in Phila¬delphia last winter, and both returned toChicago with a desire to implement some ofthe policies which they had discussed at theconference. "Chicago was the only schoolthere with a meaningful curriculum but Irealized that we must be careful to avoid toomuch self-congratulation. There is a realneed to examine the curriculum and seewhere change is needed."To do this they have devised a two-partformat. This quarter will be spent on under¬standing the rhetoric which underlies theCollege curriculum. All Task Force partici¬pants are reading from the same bibliogra¬phy of philosophical and educational worksand meeting frequently to discuss the con¬cepts which these works have in commonwith the U of C curriculum. "Next quarter Task Force members Adam O'Connor, Jerome Marcus, Ken Wissoker, Michelle White, David Shute, and (seated) Ralph Snyderwe are going to start comparing this rheto¬ric with the reality at U of C. Then, inSpring, we are going to publish a report onour findings which will be distributed allover campus. I think that if we can come upwith reasonable complaints that they will be treated reasonably."When asked what sort of feedback he hadgotten from the College Shute replied,"Most of our dealings have been with DeanSmith and we have had no problems withhim. When I originally presented the idea toAn insider's view of the Task Force//i by Adam O'Connornsider" is a risky appellation; we like to believe that no one isan insider and that no one need be an outsider. Anyone who^ comes to discuss with us is a member. Still, since it takessome time for individuals to understand the Task Force and sometime for the Task Force to understand individuals, a commitmentof time as well as intellect is necessary.I came to the Task Force by way of another group, and to thatgroup by way of complaint. A friend, bludgeoned by laments fromacquaintances, arranged for us to complain together, certainly todiscuss and perhaps to act. Our complaints were often touched offby minor events like hearing R. M. Hutchins's name associatedwith "crap" by a football coach or some other illiberal trifle. Mr.Hutchins seemed evident only in slogan form, and more profoundeducational thinkers seemed not at all evident. Apparently, theUniversity was promoting particularly unintellectual students inthe College publicity. Students were graduating with Bachelors ofBusiness Administration, and the Core seemed more irksome thananything else.The group we formed discussed at great length and with dedica¬tion, but instead of coming up with answers, our questions multi¬plied. We sought to limit our inquiry by discussing only the scienceCommon Core, but found we had too many firm beliefs, too widelydivergent to admit of any resolution.hy can one be exempted from the science Common Cores andnot from the others? Doesn't this mean that while we have fu¬ture philosophers, historians, critics, sociologists and econo¬mists in the Cores that deal with those fields, we have only non-sci¬entists in the science cores? Should a physics course be composedof students who have had calculus and others who haven't? Canphysics be taught around a table rather than in an auditorium? Cana student in the sciences discover something new about Newton? Isscientific knowledge more cumulative than that of the Humanitiesand the Social Sciences? Can original texts be used in sciencecourses? Can any original science be done in the Core? This ismerely a barrage, and this is only one question, but I want to com¬municate the difficulty of these discussions.I joined the Task Force hoping that more minds and official con¬nections would improve the discussion and perhaps enable some action. Unfortunately, and inexplicably, our number has shrunk tothat of the old group. It is likely that many who came to our prelimi¬nary meetings were frightened oft at first by too little organization,and later by too much. Yet it is out of appreciation of the difficultyof the questions we are asking, and the fruitlessness of random dis¬cussion and debate, that I helped to design an elaborate structurefor Task Force discussions.A more frightening explanation for the lack of participation in theTask Force is that the great majority of College students are satis¬fied with the education in which they are participating. Maybe themanstra "It's better than Harvard," while true, has preventedthem from seeing that it may well not be good enough.Even in conversation one finds a lack of order and cohesion in oureducation. I suspect that if everyone reads the Meno, everyoneshould be able to discuss it. It would be good if people emergedfrom the Humanities Core knowing what a syllogism is, as well as astanza. Biology majors shouldn't give pre Darwinian explanationsof evolution, adducing Darwin. I wonder if discussing relativity orthe singularity would be more in the spirit of physics than learningthe breadth of the smallest crater on the moon.I have found members of the faculty who are sincerely concernedwith the undergraduate education, and they are reflective and wor¬ried. If students wish to participate in discussions only if they willbe rewarded by a grade, the undergraduate education will continueto be less than it could be./don't expect our to be implemented. As I learn moreof the University's history, the more I appreciate that it hasrun more according to accident than plan. Seeing College en¬rollment expansion touted in Sunday supplements makes me sus¬pect that the College will go the way of money despite a student orfaculty report. It has been suggested to me that the Task Force isbeing humored, and I'm not ready to provide arguments to the con¬trary.With or without effect, forcing oneself to investigate and definewhat one is doing is a worthy activity. Students and faculty here arealways explaining the usefulness of the apparently useless, and lbelieve this discussion and report will be worth the time and theeffort regardless of how much or how little they "accomplish." him he was very encouraging." Shute addedthat Smith's involvement is not very deep"but it does give us more freedom."UWen Wissoker, another Task ForcejrC member, spoke less about the nature of• ™ the Task Force than about the particu¬lar issues which it is examining. He cited inparticular two main weaknesses in Chica¬go's curriculum: the conflict of divisionaland college loyalties among faculty and theproblem of maintaining a strong CommonCore program.Wissoker said that he would like to seestructural changes in the organization of theCollege. "The say of the College faculty canbe overridden by the divisions. Where the di¬visions have too much power it is to the det¬riment of the unity of the College and theCollege program. For example, both Brax¬ton Ross and Charles Oxnard became headsof divisions without ever having taught inthe college." Wissoker questioned the prac¬tice of putting someone in a decision makingposition who had no experience with his con-stiuency. "This is wrong. The people who doa lot of work for the college generally aren'tpart of the decision making structure." Asan example of this, he cited the practice ofhiring new faculty: it is completely up to theindividual divisions to hire whom theyplease. The college acts merely as a rubberstamp to approve their appointment. "Theyhire people for their specialties and don'tthink about their general skills, skills whichthey will need to teach in the college and,particularly, in Common Core." One way toimprove this situation, he suggested, wouldbe to have the College make some hiringrecommendations and then have the divi¬sions act on these recommendations.Shute, too, spoke of the problem of divi¬sional and college conflicts: "Most TaskForce people would put the blame on the or¬ganizational structure of the University.They have put people in important policymaking positions who are often not motiva¬ted for the good of the College but by divi¬sional or departmental considerations."continued on page 2JI ask Forcecontinued from page 1Problems with the Core program alsoarise out of the strength of the divisions.Wissoker outlined some of these: "Depart¬ments and divisions have their emphasis ongraduate research so they are happy whensomeone will take on any permutation of aCore course. This sometimes results in Corecourses only being offered as long as a par¬ticular professor is interested in that subjectand then disappearing from the scene."Wissoker cited "Urban Structure and SocialPolicy," a short lived Soc Sci Core coursetaught by James Coleman and TerryClark.ean Jonathan Z. Smith said that studentinput to curriculum evaluation is vital:"They are consumers of curriculumand they have a perspective of it which thefaculty doesn't. The faculty have designedthe components of the system but they don'texperience it."However, he added that he did not thinkany major changes were needed. "I don'tsee any sense in changing the college'spriorities. I am not hearing anyone any¬where suggesting that the building blocks ofour curriculum should be changed."What I do think we need desperately is tobe sure that our language about what we aredoing bears some relationship to the reality.And that suggests one or two things — eitheryou change the language or you change thepractice." Smith sees the most importantaspect of the Task Force to be one of discus¬sion, to start formulating questions whichcan be debated and, perhaps, acted upon."The more people that ask questions themore sense that there is life in the oldbeast."When asked about his role in the TaskForce, Smith stressed his essential non-in¬volvement. "I provide practical and moralsupport, but I do not sit with them and haveonly met with them twice, at their invita¬tion." "I don't think that it will emerge with anychanges in requirements but I do think thatit will emerge with our being able to statewhy something is a requirement and why itis important. I think that right now the TaskForce has to be part of the articulation ofwhat kind of an education we want. Do theparts of it relate well, do they produce theeducation we want, does our language aboutwhat we're doing relate to the reality? Iwould imagine that they could raise thesequestions at all levels of the curriculum."Smith was encouraging about the role ofthe Task Force. "If they can identify eightor nine concerns and we can say, well, twoor three of them are worth working on rightaway ... we ought to get closure on them bythe quarter following completion of the re¬port. Providing they've got something worthdoing, and I presume they will, I am readyto listen."In the meantime, the 15 or so students thatcomprise the Task Force continue with theirexamination of the curriculum. They haveplanned a number of events towards thisend, and also encourage students to come totheir meetings. On November 20th Profes¬sor Weintraub will lecture on "Educationand Culture." At least six additional, out¬side lecturers are planned throughout thecourse of the year. The Task Force alsoplans to sponsor some specific discussionson topics such as "Being a physics major atU of C". Anyone will be welcome to join inand share their views on their U of C educa¬tion. Wissoker mentioned that he hoped tohave these organized some time duringwinter quarter.There is still room for more student in¬volvement in the Task Force. Both Shuteand Wissoker stressed that the Task Forceconsists of participants, not members. Any¬one is welcome to attend the meetings, "Thetasks that need to be done are more impor¬tant than the people involved." For more in¬formation stop by the Task Force office inGates-Blake 416 between 11—1 on Tuesdayand Wednesdays, or call Dave Shute at753-3751.Steve Diklich, Brenda Wilde, Laura Brankowska, David Kropp and Joe Levine appear inCourt Studio's current production, The FantastiksNot so Fantasticby Marie BreauxCourt Studio is currently presenting TheFantasticks, a clever twist on Shake¬speare's Romeo and Juliet with the parentsplanning the feud to make the two childrenfall in love. This musical comedy leaves theaudience laughing and humming "Try toRemember that Kind of September". I wishthat I could say that this apparent success isa product of Ellen Martin's direction, oreven that the play succeeds despite its(many) flaws, but the truth is the play suc¬ceeds because of its faults.Watching the audience during the showand listening to their comments afterwards,I received the distinct impression that theywere laughing because this was one of theirall-time favorite plays (it has had maybeeight billion runs since it first opened nearBroadway in 1960). They must have thoughtit was "cute" to see Court Studio try to stageit. The same principle creates the humor ofyour little brother's Mick Jagger imitations,Bugs Bunny's Wabbit of Seville, and Mr.McGoo's Hamlet.Court Studio made a difficult selection inchoosing to produce The Fantasticks. Whenthis play first opened in 1960, its humor, the¬atrical devices, and characters were allfresh and innovative. Twenty years fromnow, theater history may cite this play as anexample of the conventions and devices soprevalent today. But the television exposureof Chevy Chase's stunts, Steve Martin'ssongs, Carol Burnett's neurotic mothers,and Saturday Night Live's comic sketchesmake this play seem a feeble imitation of the genre of humor that in fact imitates it.If the audience's laughter relies upon anostalgic memory of some former perfor¬mance of The Fantasticks, then the ama¬teurishness of the production plays a keyrole in its success. Any apparent profession¬alism would welcome comparisons to thefirst performance of simply conjuring upfond memories. In this respect, Court Studiois successful: actors can be seen walkingbackstage after they exit; the grey tint usedto age Joe Levine's hair turns slime-greenunder the spotlight; and the supportingactors outshine the leads.This weakness of the lead characters isthe most serious flaw in the production.Lara Brankovska and David Kropp arecompletely incompatible as "star-crossedlovers." Lara's character should be asticky-sweet, dream-filled 16 year old, buther voice belongs to one of the great dramat¬ic roles in the Chicago Lyric Opera and notin a happy go-lucky adolescent romance.David's problem is the opposite. He fits hisrole perfectly, but he cannot sing. He singson key, but like Bill Murray's impression ofJoe Nightclub, every song has the samesound.The vitality that the supporting actorsbring to their roles does much to alleviatethis production's leading flaw. So if you, likemost of last Sunday's audience, are a big fanof The Fantasticks, by all means go to CourtStudio's production. It runs until November11, and the curtain rises at 8:30 on Fridayand Saturday and 7:30 on Sunday. Ticketscan be bought at the Reynolds Club box of¬fice.

When a film opens with atow-truck (from "Martin Bor-mann's Super Service") barrel¬ing down a desert highway tosome song or other about Hitler,you just know it's not going to beyour average porn flick. In fact,it's hardly a porn flick at all, sortof an unrestrained Tex Averycartoon. Crude, violent and vul¬gar, this Wagner-and-Spike Jonesepic also features some of themost inventive cutting seen in along time, and some good (if ex¬aggerated) parodies of Psycho,The Thirty-Nine Steps, etc. alongthe way.

The reading isthe third in a series sponsored bythe Zabel Lecture Committee.Hass's poetry does not explode.His tone is calm, subtle and state¬ly. In "Sunrise" Hass says that"It is not the fire/ we hunger forand not the ash./ It is the stillhour,/ a deer come slowly to thecreek at dusk,/ the table set forabstinence, windows/ full of flow¬ers like summer in the provinces/vanishing when the moon's half¬face pallor/ rises on the dark flaxline of hills.” Hass's poetry satis¬fies us in the same way that thesight of a deer at dusk and the ris¬ing of the moon does. Althoughhis tone is at times melancholy, there is richness and joy in the deepstillness Hass creates.Hass's language is characterized by unusual assciations of words. In"Sunrise" he says that "From there we all walk slowly to the sea gath¬ering scales/ from the cowled whisper of the waves,/ the mensural poly¬phony," What does he mean by "cowled whisper"? How can a whisper,which is a sound, have shape? How can it be hooded? A hood suggests acontainer, an enclosed area. A whisper that is shaped like a cloak couldhold many voices. With this correspondence between sound and shape,Hass gives a physical presence to the voices of the polyphony.The problems presented in many of Hass' poems are resolvedthrough the sustaining power of physical things. In "Child NamingFlowers" he writes of the terror of childhood, of the fear of darkness, ofthe horror of quarreling parents.But respite is found in nature: "one clear pure peach/ in a painting byGeorgia O'Keeffe. It is all the fullness that there is in light./ A towheescratches in the leaves/ outside my open door. He always does." In"Sunrise" it is the deer and the window full of flowers that answers ourfears and yearnings. When word, thought and discussion begin to losetheir meaning in "meditation at Lagunituas," it is the physical pre¬sence of Hass's lover that provides meaning. "I felt a violent wonder ather presence/ like a thirst for salt, for my childhood river/ with its is¬land willows."Hass has published two volumes of poetry: Field Guide (1973) andPraise (1979). Field Guide won the Yale Series of Younger Poets Awardin 1973. Hass grew up in San Francisco, attended St. Mary's College andStanford University, and now lives with his wife and three children inBerkeley. — Phoebe Zerwickthe grey city journal, Friday, November 2, 1979—3YEARBOOK '80needsPhotographers,Productionists,Typists,Writers,and Candlestick Makers.GENERAL ORGANIZATIONAL MEETINGTuesday, 6 November7:302nd Floor Ida Noyessome editorial positions open,food and drink available!Special offer for University of Chicago students...Take the ChicagoTribune for$1.25 a weekand we’ll give you theshirt off our back!Order a pre-paid, seven-day Chicago Tribunesubscription for the full school year and we II pro¬vide the additional coverage of a Chicago TribuneT-shirt.

Folkdancers will hold their17th International Folk Dance Festival thisweekend, November 2, 3, and 4. The weekend event is the largest of its kind in the Midwest, and draws a large number of dancersfrom all over the country. During the weekend there will be workshops in which threevisiting instructors will teach dances ofMexico, Macedonia, and Bulgaria. Theinstructors for this year's festival areNelda Drury, Atanas Kolarovski and TomRoncevTc.Nelda Drury studied dance in MexicoCity, and has taught the dances of Mexicoand other Latin American countries atmajor folk dance camps across the country,and overseas, most notably in Japan. Shenow teaches at San Antonio College anddirects a performing group based there.This group, the San Antonio CollegeDancers, will perform at an ethnic musicand dance concert in Mandel Hall on Satur¬day, November 3 at 8 p.m.Atanas Kolarovski grew up in the town ofDracevo in the region of Skopje, Yugosla¬via. He comes from a family of musicians,and had ample opportunity to observe andparticipate in the dances of the Serbs, Al¬banians, Gypsies and Slav Macedonianswho lived in the Skopje region. After WorldWar ll Atanas joined "Tanec", the Mace¬donian National Dance Ensemble, and eventually became lead dancer and choreographer for this group. Atanas made hisfirst tour of the US in 1964, awakening inter¬est in Macedonian music and dance aroundthe country. He has returned countlesstimes since, and continues to give work-From UK:Gang of 4by Renee SarackiThis band is composed of four impas¬sioned and sincere young men, who makestrange and fascinating new music and puton a show almost equal to The Clash for in¬tensity. The Gang of Four recently complet¬ed their American tour and have just re¬leased an album in England (available atSounds Good on Broadway and on Ashlandand also at Wax Trax on Lincoln) titled En¬tertainment. Both the album and the tourcombine to make The Gang of Four one ofthe best new groups around today.The group combines rock, reggae andfunk in a way that is totally innovative. Theyutilize dub production techniques in whicheach instrument comes across individuallyand distinctly. Their songs contain little orno melody, but occasionally lead singer JonKing picks up a melodica and plays beauti¬ful melodies. In this sense, The Gang ofFour are truly anti-pop. The rhythm in thegroup is maintained by bassist Dave Allen,who plays a reggae-type bass with manynotes; and drummer Hugo Burnham, whopumps our steady funk rhythms. At thecenter of these disparate elements is AndyGill's arhythmic guitar, which is bothchoppy and repetitive, coming in and out ofsongs with little or no regard for the beat.Entertainment is the name of the group'sdebut album. This title confronts the old,worn-out motto that rock 'n' roll should beescapist music; music to play when youwant to forget your troubles and have fun.A constant theme of the album is the con¬flict between lust and love. "DamagedGoods", one of the best songs on the album,is an irrepressible dance tune which con¬tains the chorus, "Sometimes I'm thinkingthat l love you, but I know it's only lust.Your kiss so sweet, your sweat so sour."These sentiments are echoed in "Contact,"in which the speaker is upset becausehe/she can't put his/her romantic ideas oflove into practice in the bedroom. While"Damaged Goods” may be the most accessible song on the album, "Love LikeAnthrax" is their masterpiece. It starts outwith Hendrix-like guitar feedback whichleads to Jon King singing the main lyricwhile Andy Gill simultaneously speaksabout the difference between lust and love.The singers come together at two points, diverge, and then end together. Andy Gill endshis recitation with the sentence, "l don't shops in major folk dance centers all overthe country.Tom Roncevic is a graduate of DuquesneUniversity in Pittsburgh, where he was amember of the Duquesne U. Tamburitzians.He has also performed as lead dancer andinstrumentalist with several other Balkangroups, more recently, Tom studied folkloreand ethnomusicology at the University ofSofia, Bulgaria, and did research in Bulgari¬an folk dance. He presently instructs twochildren's folklore groups, and serves as as¬sistant director to the newly formed "Ense¬mble Svadba" in Pittsburgh while continu¬ing work on his dissertation.There will be a mini workshop, at whichall three teachers will give a short presenta¬tion, on Friday at 8:00 p.m. at Ida Noyes. OnSaturday and Sunday there will be work¬shops at 9:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., and 2:30 p.m.,as well as culture sessions with the same in¬structors at 4-.00 p.m. Saturday night therewill be an ethnic music and dance concert inMandel Hall at 8:00 p.m., followed by adance party at Ida Noyes.The concert promises to be excellent thisyear. There will be two instrumentalgroups, and four dance groups. The instru¬mental groups are the Popovich Brothers,the best known of the local Chicago tam-buritza bands, and the Clemente HighSchool Band, which was very well receivedat last year's festival. The dance groupsscheduled to perform are Nelda Drury's SanAntonio College Dancers; Balkanske igre, alocal Balkan group; the Dennahy IrishDancers, one of the best groups performingtraditional Irish step dances and jigs; andthe Rabai Hungarian Dance Ensemble.Post-punkKing, Andy Gill and Dave Allen.think we're saying there's anything wrongwith love, just don't think that what goes onbetween two people should be shrouded inmystery".Television images abound in the artworkof the cover and guitarist Andy Gill stressesthe importance of the mass media — andespecially television — in the formation ofpopular opinion. He states that many of thesongs on Entertainment "are concernedwith ideas received. The premise is thatpeople's ideology is received and condi¬tioned through what they're taught — andtelevision is a major teaching element in theway people's thought is constructed".While this may make the group sound likethey just graduated from art school, theydispel this notion when they perform. UnlikeTalking Heads, live they are a dynamicband; they are probably as exciting towatch as any group performing today. Vi¬sually the group is nondescript: only JonKing stands out in a flowing blue tunic. Theyare not another cool and trendy punk grouponly into fashion. Once the music starts,however, they are instantly mesmerizing,blowing away the supposedly "energeticand vital" Buzzcocks. Andy Gill and DaveAllen run wildly across the stage bumpinginto Jon King, who is dancing madly, flail¬ing both his arms and legs. He is such a sex-pot that Mick Jagger better quit soon unlesshe wants some stiff competition in the fu¬ture.All the songs of the band are great dancetunes and The Gang of Four is a great danceband. The Gang of Four is one group thatwants to show that rock 'n' roll is not just funbut entertainment, and live they prove thatentertainment can be both challenging andfun.the grey city journal, Friday, November 2, 1979—5NEW!

Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci: written by Ber¬tolucci, Giuseppe Bertolucci and Clare Peploe;photographed by Vittorio Storaro. With Jill Clayburgh,Matthew Barry, Alida Valli and Thomas Milian.In an interview a few years back, Bertolucci mention¬ed in passing that the earliest memory he has of hismother is seeing her from the basket of a bicycle withthe moon right above her. Now, in his latest film, Luna,the moon is used as the chief imagery in his explorationof the mother/son relationship.The Oedipal relationship is a particularly Bertoluc-cian obsession. It's present, in varying degrees of inten¬sity in all of his films: the hero's entanglement with hisaunt in Before the Revolution; the son verifying thelegend of his dead father in Spider's Stratagem;Marcello's rejection of his father in The Conformist;Brnado's father-surrogate for Maria Schneider in LastTango; and most recently, Olmo's attachment to hismother in 1900. Luna, however, marks the first time hedevotes an entire film to the treatment of the topic. It'sas if Bertolucci has decided to resolve once for all hisown Oedipal feelings.On one level, Luna is an allegorical account of theresolution of Oedipal conflict: it details the battle bet¬ween Mother and Son. Its drama — from the son'switnessing of the primal scene to his final extractionfrom the Oedipal trap — follows an inexorable, Freu¬dian logic. The initial betrayal is the source of anxietyfor which both mother and son have to pay apsychological price until they find the proper solution.In the meantime, the monumental struggle betweenthem provides the impetus of the film.In the prologue, or the son's witness of the primalscene, which takes place over a meal, we see the mothercaressing the infant son, feeding him honey and dotingon him. In another room, grandmom plays lulling musicon the piano. The father enters into the scene. He slitsopen the fish he has brought with him. The mother goesto him. They start dancing the twist with the fatherthrusting a fish suggestively. All this time, we'resurveying the scene from the baby's point of view. Sud¬denly, grandmom bangs a discordant chord. The baby,feeling neglected, cries and runs towards her while trip¬ping over a basket of yarn. A string of yarn is wrappedaround him, tying him to the primal scene. Bertolucci'selaborate mise-en-scene here, replete with obviousFreudian symbols, emphasizes elements — meal,honey, dancing, yarn — which will resurface later on inother moments of Oedipal conflict. The mother,Caterina (Jill Clayburgh) is an American opera singerwho flees with her teenage son, Joe (Matthew Barry) toItaly, the root of her music career, right after her hus¬band's accidental death. The death (which, significant¬ly, occurs after breakfast) throws them together (At thecemetery, she and her son are huddled together in alimousine while curious outsiders pry in.). In Rome,Joe, neglected by Caterina, falls in with a bad crowd. Ata birthday party for Joe, Caterina discovers himshooting up heroin. The drama of the story intensifies asboth she and Joe try to get to the root of the problem.Bertolucci makes it clear that images from the primalscene are the cause of Joe's anxiety. Heroin'sresemblance to honey may have led to his addiction. Atthe birthday party, Caterina's dancing the twist and thespectacle of the food certainly must have triggered off inhim memories of the scene and of abandonment. Thesolution Caterina tries here is an ordinary one — get adoctor.But it fails as both go deeper into their struggle. Eachis involved in a homosexual episode: Joe dances to se¬duce his man; and Mom lets herself be seduced. Sinceshe can't communicate with her own son, Caterina losesthe will to sing for others. This time, after a romanticmeal prepared by Joe, she tries a more drastic ap¬proach. She gets him a fix; and when Joe's anxiety ref¬uses to subside, she masturbates him to sleep.It's a sad and desperate gesture on her part; it's also aturning point. She goes to Parma to seek advice from themaestro who has taught her how to enchant others withher voice. The maestro can only return her questionswith a Mozart aria — a solution as futile in dealing withher son as her own singing. She and Joe travel aroundParma where she had spent her student days. By now,she is more confused and her feeling for Joe has turnedinto sexual obsession. At a roadside inn (again after ameal) she rejects the advances of a man and lusts afterthe boy. This overt sexuality, in contrast to the earliermaternal concern, confuses and alienates Joe further.He can't respond to his mother's urgings to enter her.(Bertolucci's mise en-scene here leaves no doubt as tothe nature of the symbolic act.) He withdraws again.And, now, Caterina tries the final solution — revealing toJoe the identity of his real father.Joe's search for his father requires a return to the pri¬mal scene. The re emergence of the real father is hardly Mother and son exchange knowing gl*unexpected.

Any actress who plays her must looklike both the Madonna and the whore. She also has to bewilling to let her psyche be explored and exploited byBertolucci. (As Brando did in Last Tango. Clayburgh isprobably the only actress today who can fill the bill. Theonly other I can think of is Liv Ullman who was Bertoluc¬ci's initial choice). She delivers an extraordinary perfor¬mance that ranges from low comedy to high drama. It'sperformance that complements Bertolucci's stylistic in¬tentions.Bertolucci has said that with Luna he is experimentingwith a new kind of dramaturgy — one that means incon¬sistency, incoherence, and contradiction. This may betrue: the film often disgresses for no apparent reason, itsometimes introduces marginal characters to enhancethe drama of the moment; it frequently shifts tone in themiddle of a scene; and the motivations of the main char¬acters are largely determined in archetypal Freudianterms. But the seeming disintegration of the narrative isheld together by the logic of the situation — the inexora¬ble thrust towards the resolution of the Oedipal conflict.We may be dismayed by the excesses of the characters,by the enormities of their acts, and by the self-indul¬gence of the director; yet the pull of the story, like that ofthe moon, is irresistable. Luna may turn out to be, asBertolucci hopes, a key film of the 80's. In the meantime,perhaps other images will haunt Bertolucci and demandto be expanded into exhilarating works of art throughthis new dramaturgy.f Brian reviewed Four fine film fest filmsby Gary BebermanTonight the 15th Annual Chicago International FilmFestival starts. Sometime after 6:45 a band will marchdown State St., fireworks will flash in the sky, and 17days of movies will commence. I know maybe four peo¬ple going to any of the events. That's no surprise. Overthe last four years, I have only seven acquaintances whoattended; there definitely is a pattern.Part of the reason for this stampede is provided by thefestival itself. The schedule published in last week'sReader is full almost to the brim with un¬known films by unknown directors. The descriptionsdon't enlighten or encourage us much either. Look at theone for Best Boy, "Heart-tugging documentary of thefilmmaker's retarded cousin. Sensation of the N.Y. FilmFestival" — tearjerker.The Film Festival does not seem much of an alterna¬tive. How can you tell whether anything is good before¬hand? Well, you can't, unless you always agree with theReader reviewers. Of the 14 preview screenings offered,I attended four at random. The following contains mycomments on them. You decide what your chances areof seeing a good movie.Best Boy (1979, U.S.A.), directed by Ira Wohl. Satur¬day, November 3, 7 pm, at the Biograph Theater, andSunday, November 4, 9 pm, at the Village Theater. Actu¬ally, that quote from the schedule is accurate but inade¬quate. The subject is Phillip, or Philly, Wohl and hisfamily. Philly is 52 years old, claims to be 16, and thinkslike he is much younger. The family has stopped grow¬ing emotionally as Philly has mentally; his 72 year-oldmother remains dependent on his presence; and his fa¬ther appears to resent it. His handicap makes him vul¬nerable to being an object of aggression.Because they love him, Philly's family decides to sendhim to school. Being very active and amiable, he accli¬mates himself immediately. The film follows his in¬creasing separation from his family and the mature re¬lationships that result.This is Wohl's first effort at feature length and he willprobably go far in any area of film he chooses. Techni¬cally, Best Boy is excellent. The film is taken fromscenes of everyday life, but it moves smoothly like it hasa narrative. The compositions are clean and simple;small changes in the frame carry much significance.Not Everything that Flies is a Bird (1979, Germany inEnglish), directed by Borislav Sajtinac. Tuesday, No¬vember 6, 7 pm, at the Village and Sunday, November11, 9 pm, at the Varsity. This one's not so good. It's ananimated feature centered on a guy and his wife whomove into their first home, a shack. The man has lots ofdreams, which make up most of what we see; he is bigon death and suffering. Elements of the dreams carryover into the "real" awakened periods, providing forcomic interludes.The interludes aren't very comic, though. She threa¬tens him, he pleads with her — that's it. The dreamsscream out that they contain meaning, but it hides well,and the relationship binding them together is equallyelusive.Sajtinac shows proficiency in animation techniques,moving from Monty Python style sketches to Mutt & Jeffcharacterizations to basic 2-D representations and vary¬ing degrees of reality within this artifice of life. Evenjust looking at the movie can be very entertaining, butsaturating the issues of reality versus spontaneity withhome life gags and symbols makes them either too ob¬scure or cerebral to grasp fully.You Are Not Alone (1978, Danish with subtitles),directed by Lasse Nielsen and Ernest Johansen. Sunday,November 11, 6 pm, at the Varsity and Friday, No¬vember 16, 9:15 pm, at the Village. This story about lifein a boys' school has two plot lines. The primary one de¬velops the love between a student, Bo, and the princi¬pal's son, Kim. The other follows an uprising in theschool; the principal expels one student for posting nudepictures and most of the others walk out in protest.This format raises issues that affect all young people:sexual awakening, developing a voice in society, inte¬grating one's self into a group while accepting one's dif¬ferences from it. The story moves nicely, but thesethemes are not well-developed. The narrative asks sim-plistically, "Will Bo sleep with Kim?" rather than "Whydoes (not) Bo sleep with Kim?" The images yield no an¬swers though they are pleasant to look at.Two definitive statements arise at the end. First:there is room in a revolution for everyone. Then, somemovie-within-a-movie self-consciousness intrudes,yielding the second: through art we live out our fantasies.Siberiada (1979, Russian with subtitles), directed byAndrei Kontchalovski. Saturday, November 17, 9:15 pm,at the Village, 3V2 hours cover three generations from asmall Siberian town; they're great, too.The first half is a folk tale. Two families feud, but without conviction; it's just part of what holds the communi¬ty together. A madman builds a road towards heaven,but he'a accepted; some mystical spirits seem to watchover the town. This is a compact community with simplenotions on life, none of which are affected by WW I or therevolution. When someone commits an injustice it is avenged.The murder of Alexei Ustyuzhanin's father goes un¬avenged for many years. When Alexei returns from WWII, in the film's second half, he tries to rectify this withan unconventional tool. Rather than kill the man, heplans to technologically develop the town; we enter amelodrama. The mystic protection fails to political ac¬tions, which are equally uncontrollable. Characters ac¬cept fully neither their traditional, nor their present-daycommitments, but are frustrated by the conflict betweenthem. The town is eventually saved from literal destruc¬tion by taking on a technological life. However, theimage presenting this, a burning pillar of oil, is one ofself-destruction and self-consumption. The peaceful bal¬ance that made Siberia unique and safe is lost.The story is simply told, but the film is incredibly com¬plex. Although few people appear, all of whom are tied tothe town, they are part of an intricate network of com¬mitments to the town, people in the town, and the state,which grows more complex with the growth of the out-From Not Everything that Flies is a Birdside world. Visual compositions are simple, but symbolsare carefully chosen and inconspicuously placed. Refer¬ences to previous generations continually appear, creat¬ing the conflict between an undeniable past and a com¬pelling present. The movie is beautiful any way you lookat it.Of these four, two are great, and the others are easierto sit through than many that Doc shows. But, not all ofthe films are as unknown as these. John Huston's newmovie Wise Blood, which is based on a Flannery O'Con¬nor story, will be shown, as will the latest by JeanneMoreau, Adolescent; Maxtmillian Schnell, Tales fromthe Vienna Woods; and R. W. Fassbinder, In a Year with13 Moons.Special interest items include evenings with GeorgeCukor, Coleen Moore, and Karen Black. There are col¬lections of animated shorts, T.V. commercials, and spe¬cial effects film clips. They even have the first featureby the worrran who wrote The Vegetarian Epicure, AnnaThomas; it's a gothic thriller called The Haunting ofM.So, there is a lot of potentially good stuff going on, andit's accessible. The Biograph is at 2433 N. Lincoln, twoSiberiada, a complex film from the USSRblocks away from the Fullerton L stop. You find the Vil¬lage at 1548 N. Clark, the corner of North and Clark. Un¬fortunately, the Varsity is lost somewhere in Evanston,1710 Sherman, and is where George Cukor will appear,but only that and one other film are unavailable else¬where (it is two blocks from the L stop at Davis).The movies cost $3.50 each, which is cheaper thanmost features, and you can buy tickets in advance at theFestival HQ, 415 N. Dearborn, live or by mail, or at theFestival Store, just north of the Biograph. Or you canbuy tickets at the Theater box offices.A 24 hour hot-line exists with all the information on theday's screenings, 644-5454.

California 338-7737Joyce Carol Oates: Cruel Eye on Academiaby Richard KayeWise bookstore clerks are said to clearaside a permanent place on their tablesfor the latest Joyce Carol Oates book,and, huff-huff, here we have Ms. Oates'snewest novel, which, in case you lostcount somewhere towards the start of herbrilliant and uncannily prolific writingcareer, is Oates's twenty-eighth book.Now Joyce Carol Oates has written somevery fine novels (particularly good arethem and Wonderland), and of coursethere is no reason on earth that a produc¬tive author cannot also be worth reading.Look at those Victorian authors, look atHenry James, look at any number ofgreat and busy writers. It's just thatUnholy Loves, like the last three novelsby Ms. Oates, would never have gonepassed the mail room of a majorpublishing house if Joyce Carol Oates didnot have such an exalted reputation. IfOates, who is perhaps our finest exampleof the novelist as an embodiment of theprotestant work ethic, enjoys spending allof her time at her typewriter, then goodyfor her. But Unholy Loves is a mess of abook, and it's way too full of Joyce CarolOates's thinly veiled goody-goodyness.Some of Oates's finest short storiestake place in University surroundings(the moving and very original "In theRegion of Ice," or the stories in TheHungry Ghosts), but here Oates usesacademia as just a hunting range whereshe can take easy shots at those she hascreated to be morally reprehensible.When aging and blithering Albert St.Dennis, an English poet of some stature,is invited to Woodslee College to beDistinguished Professor of Poetry, all of the academic heavies on campus come toroost in celebration. And whereas in thepast a better Oates would have dealt withthe petty feuds and intricate alliances ofacademics with some subtlety, evendelicacy, here Oates is all heavy-handedin her attack. The entire novel is really astring of awful parties where this pro¬fessor or that dean comes and gets slosh¬ed, insults the host, picks a fight, andsomewhere during the evening drops abanal remark about Yeats or James.There is Alexis Kessler, hancfeome musicprofessor who is bedding Bridgit Stott,second-rate novelist in residence, whoherself is eyeing the elderly St. Dennis,who, . . . and on and on and on, until oneis reminded of Donald Barthelme'sdismissal of Oates as "Jackie Suzanne ata slightly higher level." It's a statementwhich is unjust to Oates's very realtalent, but in Unholy Loves it sometimessticks.Oates has never been concerned withwriting finely crafted sentences, andwhen she wrote her huge, ambitious,naturalistic novels such as Do With MeWhat You Will, very few critics couldcomplain that Oates seemed unconcernedwith composing a simple, marvelouslyconceived sentences. Theodore Dreisernever wrote a single beautiful line in anyof his novels, but the cumulative effect ofa Dreiser work could be awesome. Andwhen Oates turned out novels which dealtmagnificently with huge pieces ofAmerican life — the Detroit riots inthem, the medical profession inWonderland, the law in Do With Me WhatYou Will — it somehow seemed picky andirrelevant to criticize her for treating Joyce Carol Oatesraw experience in an inelegant fashion.Unholy Loves is about the intellectuallysophisticated but basically corrupt, a not-j so sophisticated theme when it's con-1 veyed with Oates's hurried (and grating)1 breathlessness:"The day had begun, hadn't it, with an; 8:30 A.M. emergency meeting at theuniversity, so many hours ago, a smalli lifetime ago, the Romance languagesdepartment in a state of chaos, the head: of the department in a fierce struggle1 with some of his senior men, threats of violence, threats of actual murder,emergency meeting at 8:30 A.M. insecret, and what had he done afterward?. . luncheon with the Dean of Men . . .The hours, the hours. Falling asleep hehears Alexis Kessler's music. He hearshis friends voices uplifted. They are hap¬py together, he has made this miraclepossible. His guests, his miracle. Continu¬ing miracle."There's an astonishing amount of thissort of huff-huff-huffing in Unholy Loves,and before long one yearns for the firm,cruel hand of an assertive editor.But the failure of style in Unholy Lovesis much less annoying than Oates's easymoral posturing, her over explicit andfrequently melodramatic way of cueingthe reader in on the ethical weaknessesof her characters. Miserable facultywives rush from living rooms to throw upin bathrooms, nearly every party ends ina pathetic, outrageous fight betweenfaculty members, and everyone in thebook indulges in a ceaseless gossipythinking or chatter. One cannot be quietlydestructive and exist in Unholy Loves —; one has to appear at a party or a lecture,and then publicly disintegrate.D. H. Lawrence once warned readersabout the danger of authors who "do! dirt" to their characters, and OatesI clearly missed the advice. What's sadabout all this is that Joyce Carol Oatesonce wrote some very remarkable anddistinctive novels and short stories. What! is even sadder is that Joyce Carol Oatesprobably knows this, and — don't holdI your breaths, folks — will most likelykeep huff-huffing and turning work outanyway.Rootless Cosmopolitansby Katy SchlegelIn Between the Sheets is a collection ofshort stories by Ian McEwan. The titleadequately suggests the focus of thecollection, but its baldness is misleading.Each of the seven stories is a quiet anddisturbing tale; quiet because with wordsMcEwan can call to mind the noiselessimages that carry emotions, like apainter, and disturbing because in themost even-handed of these stories thoseemotions rise up frightening, absurd, andyet hopelessly familiar.The characters that people thesestories are rootless cosmopolitans whoselives hold apparently little form and lessmeaning. Sexual encounters suggest aninarticulate goal, a hope that physicalcommunication can make life a littlewarmer.In every story the reader is led into themind of a character to watch itsworkings, while the character watcheshis surroundings. The movement iscontemplative, gathering momentumfrom an accumulation of thoughts andresponses. Life is recorded with the kindof care one often finds oneself rejectingbecause of the pain it inspires. However,these stories aren't altogether grim.Though McEwan clarifies unhappiness,he also plays with words, and makes hisstories funny.Two out of the seven stories involvedistinctly "human" relationships inwhich one of the pair is not human. In thefirst of these, entitled "Reflections of aKept Ape," a pet ape laments his fall instatus from the lover of his owner to herroommate. His mistress is the authoressof a pulpy best selling novel, and thestory is his account of her difficultywriting another novel, of his inability toaid her with her writing block, and hisconcomitant despair.He recalls the happier days of their lan McEwancourtship, before he was banished fromher bed to the room upstairs, "shecounting my teeth with her ball pointpen, I searching in vain for nits in hercopious hair . . . my fascination with herendearingly useless toes." When they| first became lovers the ape recalls theywere "a little dogged bymisunderstanding largely due to myassumption that we were to proceed aposteriori. That matter was soon resolvedand we adopted her unique 'face to face,'an arrangement I found at first, as Itried to convey to my lover, too fraughtwith communication, a little too'intellectual.' "If only he could please her as he oncedid, he thinks, if only she would love himfor his soul rather than for his exoticbody. He is the rejected lover, hisfeelings are more profound, he is thenobler of the two — and he is obviouslythe better writer.The second story, "Dead as TheyCome," reveals its title's meaning in the final scene when the main character, anextravagantly successful businessman,strangles his lover in bed. His lover isHelen, a mannequin with whom he issmitten upon sight in a posh departmentstore window. He kills her in a fit ofjealousy, believing that she has betrayedhim by having an affair with hischauffeur. At the start of theirinvolvement the businessman is delightedby the mannequin. He finds he can talkwith her more easily than with anyone hehas ever known. "My ideal conversationis one which allows both participants todevelop their thoughts to their fullestextent, uninhibitedly, without endlessdefining and refining premises anddefending conclusions. Without everreaching conclusions. With Helen I couldconverse ideally, I could talk to her." Shedoes not try to interfere with his cooking,she watches him with silent appreciation.But his suspicions about Helen's liaisonwith the chauffeur begin to grow, and hefinds her silence cold. When he brings thematter up he realizes that she "wasgazing woodenly at her hands." When hestorms out of the room she does not lookI up. Broken and enraged, he is led by hisanguish to the final act.It may seem decadent to callabnormality normal, and to treatnarcissistic and misogynistic traitsi humorously. At other times, writers have! told of a man who took a statue into hisbed because human women disgustedhim, but Pygmalion’s statue became awoman. But in McEwan's stories thereare no rewards or punishments, onlythose pleasures or disappointments thataccompany any involvement between twopeople."Psychopolis," the last story in thebook, shows none of the bizarrecharacteristics of "Reflections of a KeptApe" or "Dead as They Come." It isabout a young Englishman's stay in Los ! Angeles, beginning with his encounterwith a woman who inexplicably requests! that he chain her to his bed for theweekend — a request he obliges. It ends; with a small farewell party for him atwhich he plays a Bach sonata, badly, onj his flute for his friends. Throughout thei story the young man's depression andanxiety grow, until he finds himself withhis friends at dinner (including thewoman of the bed-bondage incident).Disagreement turns to frenzy as theguests fight over feminism, Christianity,1 Communism, guns, and the American) Way. Argument comes to an uglyconclusion when one of the guests shootsthe host with a gun that is supposedly: loaded. He has removed the bullets, itturns out, but the company is shocked atlast into careful politeness, a politenessreinforced by the rigid strains of thepoorly-played Bach sonata. As the playergoes through the music with the jumbleof the events just passed and the lunacyof Los Angeles in his mind, "the vastfragmented city without a center, withoutcitizens, a city that existed only in themind, a nexus of change or stagnation inindividual lives . . . picture and ideacrashed drunkenly one after the other,discord battened to bar after bar ofimplied harmony and inexorable logic,"he cannot go on playing. When he stops,however, he finds his friends respondingwith unsuspected warmth, clapping as ifhe were a virtuoso, offering himimaginary flowers."Overwhelmed by nostalgia for acountry I had not yet left, I could do no; more than put my feet together and1 make a bow, clasping the flowers to my| chest."Emotion draws the reader into a new! view of these lost and despondent people.They suddenly seem much like himself.In this way, the stories break out of their; decadence.Unassigned Readings and Other Guilty Pleasures Compiled by Richard Kaye and Molly McQuade,with the staff of the Chicago Literary Review.the grey city journal, Friday, November 2, 1979—9DOC FILMSFriday November 2THE EXORCIST7:00 and 9:30and at MidnightRuss Meyer's SUPERVIXENSSaturday November 3Walt Disney'sPIN0CCHI02:30,7:30 and 9:30and at MidnightSUPERVIXENSIMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

Salaa Aaaoclala (rat 947 0453)Kan Waatar Salaa Aaaoclatalrat 947-0557)10—the grey city journal, Friday, November 2, 1979From Genesis to Revelationby Melanie Deal"Punk in London" is a documentary by German film¬maker Wolfgang Buld. Made in 1977, it chronicles an al¬ready waning social-political-musical movement fromthe viewpoint of an outsider. The analytical Germanmind tries to examine, categorize and define a dyingaesthetic in its last feeble stages of life. The cameramoves relentlessly through London, seeking out thedingy clubs and cellars where punk music began, andferreting out the hopefuls and hangers-on who still clingto its crumbling ideals.Beginning with stylized credits (a woman spraypaint¬ing the titles on a brick wall), the film lasts nearly twohours, with, often, overlong glimpses of diverse knownand unknown bands: two unintelligible songs by X-RaySpex, with sullen lead singer Poly Styrene uneasilyspeaking to the camera afterwards, proving she has hor¬rible enough teeth to qualify for punk stardom; a bouncyset by the cute and suited Jam in a miserably over¬crowded club; a brief glimpse of the Boomtown Rats(who can hardly be considered a punk band) in asteamy, body-filled cellar closely resembling Dante'sInferno; several unmemorable songs by transvestite(now reportedly transsexual) singer Wayne County; andassorted glances at less commercially successful groupslike the Lurkers, Adverts, and Killjoys.Unfortunately for many viewers, Buld attempts to tieall these scenes together with voice-over narration inGerman. One can often tell what he's talking about, how¬ever, from the images on the screen, and one picks up anoccasional phrase like "der X-Ray Spex" that gives aclue to the identity of the next group or subject to be ex¬ amined.Buld talks not only to band members but also tovarious managers and roadies, insiders who have aclear view of the movement and it trajectory. He ques¬tions them from behind his camera in a thick Germanaccent. Sadly, it is from these conversations that theviewer learns that almost three years ago, when thisfilm was made, the general opinion was that the punkmovement was dead, co-opted by the commercialpowers that be. "The New Wave is just like the OldWave," one person laments, echoing the sentiments of"White Man in Hammersmith Palais" by the Clash:Punk rockers of the U.K.They won't notice anywayThey're all too busy fightingFor a good place under the lighting.The new groups are not concernedWith what there is to be learnedThey got Burton suits. Ha, you think it's funnyTurning rebellion into money.(1978 Nineden Limited)One young guitarist chats to the camera while watchingtelly with his mum and dad. Ironically, the Boomtownrats appear on the screen and he accuses them of sellingout, while obviously envying their success.Buld cannily saves the best for last: a Clash concert ofsix or so songs — an apparently early show, with a rela¬tively unenthusiastic audience. The most astonishingfeature of this scene is bass player Paul Simonon inBowiesque get-up, complete with dyed hair. He looks like the last incarnation of glitter rock, an effete an¬achronism in the world of punk political awareness. Un¬fortunately, the camera is so enamored of Joe Strum-mer that it remains trained on him even throughout"Hate & War," sung entirely by Mick Jones. Neverthe¬less, it is a close-up look, both onstage and backstage, ata band no one can see enough of.The most striking scene of the film comes about half¬way when the camera tracks down the Stranglers. In re¬sponse to the filmmaker's questions, one band memberstands poised on a wooden staircase, vehemently declin¬ing the group's cooperation for the film. Not only is thescene visually stunning, with the figure obliquely block¬ing the stairs, but his angry words ("We don't want tosell records in Germany. Go home and listen to Germanbands") recall all the seemingly lost defiance and integ¬rity of the early punk movement. The viewer leaves thefilm with more respect for the Stranglers than for themany groups who willingly participated.In his efforts to remain wholly detached, Buld oftenseems merely foolish and intrusive, trying to analyse auniquely British experience as a cultural outsider. Theaudience, seeing through his camera, shares his dull andplodding, almost painful, failure to grasp exactly whatthe punk movement was all about."Punk in London" will be shown Saturday, Nov. 3 andSunday, Nov. 4 at 8 p.m. at Chicago Filmmakers, 6 W.Hubbard (just north of the Chicago River), 329-0854. Ad¬mission is $2.00. The film is worthwhile as a social andhistorical document, if not as a musical experience(although the Jam and Clash sets are good). Take afriend who understands German.Talking Heads at Aragon brawlroomby Nets EricksonTalking Heads gave a brief but excellentshow last Friday at the Aragon Ballroom.Appearing with them were two other NewWave acts, the A's and the Cramps.The A’s, from Philadelphia, play reason¬ably straight rock 'n' roll with vocal har¬monies, good lyrics, accomplished musi¬cianship and an entertaining stage manner.One song in particular stood out in their per¬formance: "After Last Night", which istheir current single. It's a well constructedsong with a memorable hook. For an Aragoncrowd, the A's were received favorably.In the annals of strangeness, the Crampsrate near top. This may explain why theCramps finished their last set under a bar- ^rage of garbage and catcalls. The Cramps*call their music "voodoo rockabilly", andmthey bear out the weirdness of their concep- gtion in their appearance and songtitles "IpWas a Teenage Werewolf", "Human Fly",and "Garbageman". As far as looks go, thelead singer, Lux Interior, resembles amanic Eraserhead, and Bryan Gregory onlead guitar sports an extremely bizarrep§roxided, wrap-around hairdo. TheCramps use no bass player, so the rhythmicchoices are taken care of by Ivy Rohrshach,who looks like an Orphan Annie gone street,on rhythm guitar; and the unctuous NickKnox on drums. The Cramps are of thethree-chord, high energy, comic book punkelement of the New Wave.Nobody would deny that they are an inter¬esting act, least of all one U of C B-schooler uwho joined the Cramps unannounced on 5stage. His antics were not appreciated by 2Lux Interior, who showed his disdain by gwhipping the student with his mike cord.Lux proceeded to aid the student's exit bypushing him off the stage.Talking Heads walked onto the fully litstage and began, appropriately, with "Ar¬tists Only." This band, with their art schoolbackground, portrays the narcissistic trendof the 70's more than any other rock act.They are best described as America's an¬swer to England's Roxy Music, who theycite as a major influence. However, TalkingHeads eschew Roxy Music's eleganzo andlyrical romanticism for a more spartan,minimalist approach to life and music.Common things in life such as air, cities,mind, and paper serve as song titles on theHead's latest album, Fear of Music. Thisalbum, while being innovative, borders onpretention. Its simulated corrugated metalcover art, designed by keyboard player andsecond guitarist Jerry Harrison, the Africaninfluenced "I Zimbra" which utilises a HugoBall poem for lyrics, and the atypical topicsof the lyrics are provocative, yet at the same time they are self-consciously stilted.It's ironic that Talking Heads, the pre¬mier art rock/intellectual rock act, ap¬peared onstage at the Aragon Ballroom, better know as the Brawlroom. The Brawlroomis generally populated by lowlife unsophisti¬cates, and while they were out in force to seeTalking Heads, they were given competitionby an unusually large number of college stu¬dents, many from this university. The ap¬peal of Talking Heads transcends thesesocio-intellectual differences becausetheyutilize the conventions of traditionalrock music, while they assume the avant-garde role by delving into unexplored areasO! rock music and inventing new elements.The concert seemed to be intended to pro¬mote the band's new album (their third)with all but three songs being featured fromit. Talking Heads played only two songsfrom their first album ("New Feeling" and "Psycho-Killer") and four from their sec¬ond ("Found a Job", "Stay Hungry", "TakeMe To the River" and "Artists Only").The performances of all the song s wereexcellent. The evening saw David Byrne,singer, songwriter and lead guitarist, in fineform as his unsettling, quavering vocals andhis trebly, ratchet-action guitar playingaided in creating the distinctive sound ofTalking Head's music is more angularlyrhythmic than melodic. This contradictiondevelops tension which is increased byJerry Harrison's synthesizer and guitarlines. The Eno influence shows through withthe eerily unique contributions of the synthesizer. The drummer, Chris Frantz, drivesthe music along, building intensity.Unfortunately, the band's virtuosity wasiost on a major part of the audience, sincethe stage waS at floor level and only those inthe front rows were able to see the band. The neuroses caused by urban life pro¬duce tension and anxiety. Talking Headsevoke this feeling in their music and lyricssuperlatively. The ordering of the songs am¬plifies this feeling. But Talking Heads don'tleave their audience uptight. In the lastrifle-like salvo of notes from Byrne's guitarduring "Psycho-Killer," (the last song ofthe show) their tension is strikingly re¬solved.Talking Heads played two more songs astheir encore. In their current hit, "Life Dur¬ing Wartime," they seem to refer to U of Cwhen they sing, "This ain't no party, thisain't no disco, this ain't no foolin around."The Al Green number "Take Me To TheRiver" followed, suggesting a cleansing remedy for these symptoms.It was a tight show from a worthwhileband who are expressing their ideas onurban life for young moderns.the grey city journal, Friday, November 2, 1979—11Wilde ideasEditor:Where did your reviewer of the 'Wilde Night'with Vincent Dowling pick up the absurd idea thatWilde had converted to Catholicism in his dyingdays? The performance last Sunday did contain areading of a few lines from De Profundis in whichWilde waxes lugubrious about suffering, redemp¬tion and Jesus Christ. But Wilde's image of Christas a romantic poet, epicurean saint and sympaticofellow-martyr is not much more than a literaryconceit. His real deeper feelings came through inother ways. Dowling gave us a good example —Wilde on his deathbed is L'Hotel D'A'sace in Paris,grimacing at the wallpaper and exclaiming, "Oneof us has got to go!"It is an exemplary life, but it's slander to suggestit was ever a religious one. What did come throughDowling's performance was a life of much moreintegrity to self-professed ideals of art, life, self-knowledge, and to the ambition of tasting the fruitof every tree in the garden of life, than its liver hadever intended.Jawj Greenwald.Reader:Lisa von Drehle took her information from Hes-keth Pearson's Oscar Wilde/His Life and Wit, abook recommended to her by Vincent Dowling. Ni¬cholas Rudall has stated that he believes the bookis reputable; Abbe Chack, who has studied Wilde'slife, has always read the Wilde did convert, but sheadds that the conversion may still be doubted.However this may be, I doubt our statement con¬stitutes slander. We attempt to be accurate, but weknow we often aren't, and we don't think of ourstatements as the final word . Thankfully, neitherdo our readers.Thank you for reading and writing.David Miller ** Rocks and stars **by Sharon PollackPart of being a student here is making oneself comfortable withthe buildings, the language, and the mannerisms of the people thatmake up the university. We come here and walk through the corri¬dors, sit in the'classrooms, and gaze at the ceilings. We becomepart of it, as it becomes a part of ourselves. The neo-gothic archi¬tecture is overwhelming; the buildings so much larger than we are.They demand that we look up their tall spires, realizing the great¬ness of the structures, and recognize our own impotence. We searchfor a way to make the space our own. We want to be a part of it; tofeel comfortable amid all the great buildings; chock full of thegreat ideas.How abrupt the change in atmosphere, stepping out of the C-Shopand into Hutch Commons. I look at the huge chandelier, the oakpaneling, and the portraits of all the great men who have made theuniversity. They seem so right looking down on us, as if they havefinally found their true resting place. They are so serious, so self-satisfied as they survey the students sitting below them. We knowsome of their names, as we aspire to be like them, because weyearn to feel as comfortable here as they do.Above the cash register, there is a picture of a woman. It wasyears before I noticed her, and I've often thought about her. Herface peers out from behind a dark background. Her hair is pulledback, and she wears a black dress. She is very plain. Her face isunsure, as if she were asking a question. She seems not quite awareof the fact that someone, for some reason, had painted her portrait,and placed it among those of the great men.I wonder if she feels silly sitting there. As women here we areoffered a remarkable privilege: the opportunity to become a greatman. There are no great women. There have never been any greatwomen. If we saw one, how would we know to recognize her? All thethings that are worth doing, that need to be done, that make a dif¬ference in the world have been done by men. What the various pro¬fessions are, what people are like, what the history of the world is,and what the great ideas are: all this has been decided by men. The history of mankind is just that, and human nature seems toonly describe men. Take, for example: "war is an integral part ofhuman nature." When men say things about men (or women forthat matter) it is called objective. When women say things it iscalled subjective, and therefore not serious, not academic.And so the women continue to walk down the halls lined with thepictures of the great men, looking down on us, pressing their objec¬tivity on us. We try to make sense of them, forcing ourselves tospeak their language, further their ideas, try and make them ourown. Yet we are like the woman whose face peers out of nowhere,the space not designed to accommodate her, the language unable toarticulate her thoughts, no images to adequately represent her. Shesits approximated, like a school marm. She is somebody's proj¬ection of what a great woman must be.As women, we are newcomers to the university. It may have beenthe home of our father's father, but never that of our mother'smother. The structures, the language, the images were created toarticulate male experience, which is presumed to be normative.We are allowed to be part of the university if we accept its assumptions and its language as our own. But because we are new, becausewe are outsiders, we can study these assumptions as somethingoutside of ourselves. We can study their origins, question their pre¬mises, and analyze their methods. We can discover why and howthe language came to be that of the great men, and why there havebeen no great women.Of course, there is such a thing as a successful woman. We havemany such exceptions at the university. The women who havemade themselves comfortable with the history of the great men.They are "as smart as the men."Underneath the picture of the woman, the exception, the anamo-ly, the women sit trying to speak to each other, groping to under¬stand the tools of learning not made to fit our hands, the languageour tongues, and the buildings our bodies. We aspire to one day bean anamoly, gazing furtively out of a dark background, amid thepictures of great men.12—the grey city journal, Friday, November 2, 1979 O'Dees IMg%ms in the £<wp•Come in to see our fine selec¬tion of Quality Brand-NameUniforms for Professional Menand Women•Coordinating Tops, Skirts, andPants as well as Dresses, Suits,Lab Coats, etc.•White Shoes - Clinic and Nurse-mates/Day lites17 H.

The gamewas the first and only night game of the sea¬son and the only game to be played on artifi¬cial turf. The field at South Bend was quitefast and well suited to the Notre Dame styleof play.It proved to be a running game with bothteams exhibiting great quickness through¬out. The first half was very close and bothteams played extremely well. Chicago andNotre Dame both had good scoring chancesin the first half but neither team could con¬vert and the half ended in a scoreless tie.Notre Dame registered the first score with about fifteen minutes gone in the sec¬ond half. Notre Dame could not retain theirlead for long as Maroon right wing KimHong intercepted a pass from a Notre Damefullbakc to his goalkeeper. Kim outran theball, dribbled around the goalie and put theball into an open net. The Irish scored thewinning goal when Jim Sabitus headed acorner kick past Maroon goalie JohnCondas. Condas was a doubtful starter rightup until game time with an injury that hesuffered in practice Monday afternoon. De¬spite this, he played very well in net for theMaroons. Notre Dame’s last goal came withless than four minutes left in the contest,again scored off a comer kick.Even though they were outscored in thesecond half, the Maroons played fine soccer and were very much in the game through¬out. The second half was as even as the firsthalf and the Maroons may have even held aslight advantage, expecially in the earlierpart of the period. The Maroon players wereunanimous in their praise of the NotreDame team, noting that this was definitelyone of the best teams that they have facedall season. Some veterans commented thatthis Notre Dame team may not have been asgood as the one that they nearly beat lastyear.The loss now puts the Maroons record at4-5-1 overall, with one game remaining.They will try to even their record as theyconclude their season against Wheaton, nextWednesday in an away game.SportsIM reportB’ridge and Upper Wallace Splashby Mark ErwinThis past week was a big one for intramu¬ral activities.
