The student, JoshuaStraus, was hit in the face with aplate of soap and shaving cream.The assailants, who wore garbagebags and masks, put up postersfrom Women Against Pornographyand took 56 LCB posters valued at$1 apiece.The posters, printed on highquality paper, depicted AdolpheWilliam Bougereau’s paintingVenus and Cupid along with thewords “Veni, vidi, veni”, a play onCaesar’s “I came, I saw, I con¬quered." and information aboutthe costume ball. Straus had sold 44 of the posters in the two hoursthat he had been sitting in the CobbHall foyer. He said he sold themequally to men and women.Straus said, ‘‘What we’re doingis not violent. I don’t think it’s inthe same category as rape."Straus said he was shaken by theincident and he had to wash out hiseyes several times over a period ofhours because of chemicals in theshaving cream.Steven Silver, a spokesman forthis year's LCB sponsor, PeerPressure Enterprises, said that hethought the incident was unfortu¬nate.‘Whoever did this must knowthat things have changed." Silversaid. He said that efforts had beenmade this year to make the ballless pornographic and that theplanners of the event have madeefforts to avoid sexism. Straus said that it was a mistakeby the group that one of the otherLCB posters and an ad placed inThe Maroon only depictedwomen."All events will be omnisexual."Straus said.Silver said that members of Uni¬versity feminist organizations hadattended early planning meetingsfor the ball where it had been de¬cided that the nature of the eventwould be changed in certain re¬spects.The LCB will take place this Sat¬urday April 12 at 9 pm in Ida NoyesHall.

University fined fornuclear safety faultsBy David GlocknerFor the third time in the past twoyears, the Nuclear RegulatoryCommission (NRC) has cited theUniversity for alleged violations ofradiation safety regulationsLast month, the NRC proposedto line the University $2400 for themost recent alleged violations,which stem from an incident lastOctober in which a University re¬searcher received an overexpo¬sure to neutron radiationDuring one three-month period,the researcher received nearlythree times the amount of body ra¬diation permitted annually byNRC regulations, and more thanhalf of the annual allowableamount of hand exposure. Themedical effects of the exposure arenot certain, according to amember of Northwestern Univer¬sity’s radiation safety office, al¬though prolonged overexposuremay result in cancer or cell muta¬tions. The NRC said in a press re¬lease that the incident “should notresult in any medically detectableeffects." Only one person was ex¬posed to the excess radiation andhis name was not released by theNRC or the University.According to the University’swritten response to the NRCcharges, the overexposure oc¬curred when the researcher un¬derestimated the amount of radia¬tion that he would receive by-rearranging an array of radiationsources used in an experiment.The researcher, who has 25 yearsof experience with radiationsources according to University,was studying the possibility ofusing californium-252 as an alter¬native to radium in cancer thera¬py-The NRC made eight specific al¬legations against the University,which Vice President for Spon¬sored Programs Cedric Chernickresponded to in a letter to the NRC.Below is a brief summary of thecharges and the University’s re¬sponses :1.That the University permittedthe overexposure to take place. The University does not denythat the researcher was overex¬posed to radiation, but it maintainsthat the overexposure * resultedfrom the researcher's miscalcula¬tion It contends that the re¬searcher's estimates of radiationwere plausible and that the re¬searcher was highly experiencedin working with radioactive sub¬stances.2. That the University learned ofthe overexposure on September 10.1979, but did not report it to theNRC until October 2. 1979. al¬though it is required to notify theNRC within 24 hours of learning ofa violationThe University states that be¬cause of discrepancies in the pro¬cessing of film on the researcher'sradiation protection badge, it didnot know for certain until October2 that the overexposure had takenplace at which time it notified theNRC. However, the University didlearn on September 10 that overex¬posure might have taken place.3. That the University did notproperly evaluate potential radia¬tion levels before allowing the ex¬periment to proceed, and that itfailed to promptly notify the re¬searcher of his overexposure, andthat as a result he continued his ex¬periments for three days after theUniversity learned of his possibleoverexposure.The University claims that theresearcher did conduct an evalua¬tion of the potential radiationlevels, and that officials ‘ repea¬tedly" attempted to inform him ofhis possible overexposure by leav¬ing messages to call them and vi¬siting his office.4. That the University did notobtain the approval of its radiationhazards committee before permit¬ting the acquisition and use of fourradiation sourcesThe University argues that for¬mal approval was not required be¬cause the new sources were re¬placements for sources used inpreviously authorized experi¬ments.5.

But Zonis empha¬sized that he believed further stepswere needed, that any positive ac¬tion by Iran was some time off. andthat the US would make a seriousmistake if it used military force tofree the hostages.“I think it is important not to ex¬pect any abrupt change."

But the US must be carefulnot to take action which does unifythe Iranian people,” such as mili¬tary action or mining of their har¬bors," Zonis said.Zonis believes that the mining ofIran’s harbors would have a long¬term negative effect on our rela¬tions with all the countries in thePersian Gulf area. Military actioncould endanger the lives of the hos¬tages, and draw the Soviet Union Iran are good: Zonisinto the conflict, according toZonis. The Carter AdministrationIras made clear, though, that it hasnot ruled out the military option.Zonis urges the cooperation ofUS allies in cutting off trade andcomunications with Iran. That co¬operation has always been difficultto achieve due to Japan’s andWestern Europe's large depen¬dence on Iranian oil. but that maynot be as much of a problem any¬more. according to Zonis."Now, they (our allies* can af¬ford to stop using the Iranian oil,’said Zonis. “The cutback in Iran¬ian production has made it easierto live without (their supply). Iranhas done itself in by dimishing itsweapon in this way. There are alsolarge reserves in each (allied'country, and since it takes three months for the tankers to arrivefrom Iran, there would be an addi¬tional period of time before the ef¬fects would be felt.

His attempt to leave Romaniawithout official authorization appears to bea consequence of official discriminationagainst him because his family is regardedas politically suspect. His father was amember of the Romanian palace guard andfought with the royal troops against the Rus¬sians until he was captured at Stalingrad.Because of this, Preda was reportedly re¬fused entry to University. He applied forpermission to emigrate in 1977 but his appli¬cation was refused and he was dismissedfrom his job. He was captured by the Yugos¬lavians after swimming across the Danube,returned, and sentenced. At this time AI hashad no replies to their appeals to RomanianAuthorities.William Cannon, vice-president for busi¬ness and finance, has announced the successof the University’s energy conservation pro¬gram last year.

We wouldhave to throw outour lectures fordiscussions, shiftthe whole focus ofour activity fromthe practice ofscholarship to thepractice of dialectic.By Frederick FooteAmerican society is like a mythical beastthat feeds on its own flesh. It is held togetherby no common goal except a commonly-heldwish to escape from society and be free. Be¬cause of this, our society rapes, murders,and exploits itself with a fierce, proudseriousness; it devours itself without regret.Under such conditions, it is not surprisingthat our forms of education present incon-Essaygruities which don’t simply jar, but whichactively bedazzle us, like the brilliantstrange lines of some painting by Pollock.Let us examine the prevailing view of edu¬cation which we find in our own College. Weare taught that knowledge consists of the re¬membering of a fact that has been discov¬ered and recorded. We are taught that thisknowledge is found in books, and in lectureswhich are audible books. Intellectual excel¬lence is held to be a mastery of the contentof books, and an ability to reduce the argu¬ment of a book to its essence and to compareit to that of other books. It follows that thestudent’s time should be occupied with at¬tending lectures—that is, with listening tobooks—and with the solitary study of a verylarge number of...books. In our College, infact, this preoccupation with books hasreached exceptional proportions. The texthas become a God, the object of an obses¬sion. The most trivial details of our lives at¬test to this. Vast shelves of books are ar¬ranged like icons along the walls of ourapartments. The eye of the passerby is be¬guiled by glimpses of these great ranks ofvolumes which we have read and forgotten.In our classrooms each new problem ismade the occasion for a crushing new read¬ing list. God forbid we should miss anythingthat anyone has ever written! Every after¬noon, we find ourselves is train to the li¬brary,Bent double, like old beggars undersacks, Knock-kneed, coughing likehags, we curse through sludge¬carrying bags, even suitcases, filled withsmall square fetishes, we enter the templeto perform our customary obeisance andsacrifice to the new Baal.It is impossible to describe these beha¬viours in a serious way: they can only seemcomical. But they are signs of serious prob¬lems.The prevailing view of education identi¬fies intellectual activity with studying andcommenting on books. This view gives riseto several developments. First, the studentstarts to believe that intellectual life is con¬nected with some activities and not withothers; he begins to see study as somethingthat stands apart from ‘ real life.” Becauseof this, his thought becomes focussed on res¬tricted parts of his experience. He divideshimself into two impoverished halves: anacademic half, which is filled with booksand thinking, but which lacks the immedia¬cy of actual experience, and an experientialhalf which drones on unenriched by reflec¬tion. At the same time, the emphasis on soli¬tary study and lectures encourages him toadopt a slavish state of mind: he comes tobelieve that wisdom is attained by submis¬sion to authority. Once this principle of au¬thority is established, the intellectual be¬comes powerless before the authority of thespecialist expert. But except for questionsthat are confined to the narrowest spheres,the specialist is an inadequate authority, be¬cause his need to maintain his expertise pre¬vents him from pursuing other disciplines.Further, the rising intellectual is aware ofhis dependence on the specialist, and seesthat he cannot be independent unless he be¬comes a specialist himself. If he takes thisroute, however, he ceases to have access toviews that span a wide range of disciplines.His thought, conceived in isolation and with¬ in the confines of a narrow subject-area, canno longer address the multi-faceted prob¬lems of society. Through this process, the in¬tellectual becomes isolated from societyand its universal concerns, and becomes in¬capable of acting as a critic of society. Whenthis condition of the intellectual becomesgeneral, it actually poses a threat to cul¬ture. Under these conditions, general truthsno longer have anyone to know them, andconsequently decline, and the thought of so¬ciety drowns in minutiae. Common knowl¬edge ceases to exist, and the bonds of cul¬ture weaken accordingly.Such are the consequences of this doctrineof education: the alienation of the intellectu¬al from the events of his own life, his remo¬val and isolation from society, and the gen¬eral fragmentation of the life of the mindand of common culture.The prevailing view states that excellencein the use of the mind is the same as being ascholar. Accordingly, it is held, the task of acollege is to create scholars. But from soci¬ety’s point of view this is senseless: it ac¬cords neither with the wishes of students norwith society’s needs. The vast majority ofthe students in our College wish to enter oneof the professions: they intend to devotetheir primary attention, not to books, but tothe problems and ideas of living people.Further, this intention is in agreement withthe needs of society. In order to maintainour civilization, our first need is, not forscholars, but for competent managers of so¬cial institutions. In our College, we are sub¬ject to a certain kind of training. We aretaught certain facts; we are taught how tomaster a text, how to summarize its argu¬ment, how to ‘‘compare and contrast.”These are the activities which we performover and over again, and at which we ac¬quire proficiency. The problem with thisprocess is that these activities are not per¬formed anywhere except in schools! If oneis not planning to spend one’s life in schools,it is a waste of time to practice them. In¬stead, we should learn the skills that will en¬able us to make a contribution in the widerfield of the life of society.We should learn to speak clearly andgrammatically, in complete sentences,avoiding the use of fashionable barbarisms.We should learn to write a readable essay that expresses our own view of a humanproblem. Finally, we should learn to followa question fruitfully in discussion, with allthe patience and rigor which this activitydemands. These skills are hard to learn.They do not descend on us like the HolyGhost, and they do not arise spontaneouslyfrom within, just from finding ourselves inan intellectual environment. Education isbenevolent coercion; a student learns onlywhat he is explicitly trained to learn. Thistraining consists of the practice of an intel¬lectual exercise until it becomes a habit. Isthe student trained, by lectures, to listen?Then he will learn to listen—and nothingmore. Is he trained, by reading, to recitechemistry? Then he will learn to recitechemistry—and nothing more.If he is to learn to speak, to write, to dis¬cuss, then he must practice these skills. Theeffective teaching of these skills would re¬quire a full-scale shift in the kinds of educa¬tional activity we pursue. We would have tothrow out our lectures in favor of discus¬sions, to abandon all attempts to master asubject-area, and to shift the whole focus ofour activity from the practice of scholarshipto the practice of dialectic. This would be adifficult task. But if we neglect this task, oureducation will never be what it should be. Itis the possession of these skills, and not themastery of a subject-area, which will ad¬vance our careers and permit us to partici¬pate effectively in the decisions which aremade in society. Further, the practice ofthese skills has a unique effect on the mind.By practicing these habits in speech andwriting, we guide our thinking into paths ofclarity, order, tolerance, and rationality. Ifwe fail to learn these skills, it seems, we arewasting our time as students. But how doesthe philosophy of education which is beingcriticized, the Cult of the Book, promote theteaching of these skills, how does it evenallow for such instruction? It sweeps thesegoals aside in its quest for scholarly superi¬ority, for the ability to recite.This criticism does not suggest that un¬dergraduates should not read. Certainly weshould read, but we should not read all thetime, and we should regard the text as ameans, not as an end. We should not read inorder to learn the content of our books; weshould read in order to use our books asfocal points for the practice of speech, dis¬cussion, and the writing of original essays.Our present educational structures encour¬age the student to regard the book as an endrather than as a means. These structuresshould be replaced by the discussion and theoriginal essay, structures that emphasizethe learning skills.The prevailing view of education is a “scholarly” view. It tells us that knowledgeis the remembering of facts, and that wis¬dom is the ability to recite accepted factswithout end. The appropriate objects for theintellect are the book and the lecture; theappropriate attitude for the student is pas-sivitv and acceptance.The view which challenges this account isa “dialectical” view. It states that the men¬tal activity called “knowing” is not the abili¬ty to recite, but a sense of conviction that isso strong that we are unable to doubt thetruth of the idea that is in the mind. Thisview tells us to exercise our capacity fordoubt, in order to identify those truths thatwe definitely know. Because we must doubt,the activity of first importance is question¬ing. The appropriate objects for the intellectchange accordingly. Instead of books andlectures, which address us only indirectlyand do not respond to our questions, wemust confront living, responsive objects:We must confront directly the lives andopinions of our fellow men, and seek to en¬gage them in a dialogue. In adopting thisview, we leave our passivity behind us, andadopt an attitude that orients us towards ac¬tion and exploration; we become minds thatare on the attack against the problems ofour situation.Let us inquire of ourselves: which of thesetwo views comes closest to the idea we haveof ourselves in our best moments? Which isthe better image of the persons we wouldlike to be? If we are to call ourselves intel¬lectuals, we must surely demand that the in¬tellect should enjoy the widest possiblescope, the most direct experience of theevents of life, and the greatest opportunityto take an active role in its encounter withthe world. These are the ends that are pro¬moted by the “dialectical” principles enu¬merated above.Three skills have been identified as endsof education: the ability to speak fluently,the ability to write readably and originally,and the ability to pursue a problem in dis¬cussion. To these three habits of mind, theprimary aims of our schooling, we may nowadd a fourth: the habit of questioning. Col¬lege education should encourage the studentto confront reality in an active, independentway. This can only occur when the studentlearns to regard every statement he hearsas a stimulus to question. It is impossible toask a question without assuming a spirit ofaction and independence, just as it is impos¬sible to accept authority without feeling thepassive indifference that spells the sleep ofthe mind.In this essay, the “scholarly” view of edu¬cation has been simplified. In some re¬spects, our College departs from this pic¬ture. Essentially, however, our education inthe College is of a scholarly nature. Let thereader ask himself: in how many of hisclasses does his teacher do most of the talk¬ing? (The answer ought to be: none.) Howmuch of the time which he sets aside for“serious intellectual work” is spent in dis¬cussion with other people, rather than instudying by himself? (Most of it.) Howmany questions does he ask in his classes?(As many as he can fit in without interrupti¬ng another student.) In the papers he writes,does he express his own view, or does heonly comment on what someone else haswritten? The answers to these questions willshow whether his education has a scholarlyor a dialectical spirit.This distinction applies to the psychologi¬cal tensions which we experience in the Col¬lege. One reason for the noteworthy absurdi¬ties of College life (primal scream, costumeball, angst-ridden-gargoyle T-shirt, etc.) issurely that we feel oppressed by the burdenof a scholarly training which we simply donot want.This essay proposes that we substitute thediscussion for the lecture as our basic exer¬cise, and the question for the text as our end.Our stressed and uncertain society cries outfor a generation of intellectuals who willconfront its problems directly, who will pur¬sue fearless enquiry, who will show societythe truth about itself and heal its discon¬tents. Will we be up to this task? Will our ed¬ucation prepare us for the active role wehave to play? These are the questions whichthis essay raises for discussion.Frederick Foote is a fourth-year student inthe College.4—The Chicago Maroon, Friday, April 11, 1980We should not read in order to learn the content ofour books; we should read in order to use our booksas focal points for the practice of speech, discus¬sion, and the writing of original essays.Letters to the EditorVisiting FellowsTo the Editor:Your editorial comment on the VisitingFellows Program leads me, as Chairman ofthe Committee, to feel that both you andyour readers might be helped by a clearerstatement of the purposes and the limits ofthe program itself.First, the program was established tobring to the University visitors who mightnot ordinarily come here under the auspicesof the many academic and cultural groupswho bring speakers and performers to theQuadrangles. We have tried to extend themeaning of public policy as far as we couldand will continue to broaden and vary it.Second, we have been emphasizing ex¬tended stays on the Campus and direct andvaried involvements with College studentsand undergraduate life. A two-day visit iswhat we generally try to shoot for. Theremay well be numerous people in the publicarena who would be willing to arrive in Chi¬cago on a lunch flight, deliver an afternoonlecture, and take a dinner flight back home.That is not what we have been looking for.Third, the above factors mean that wework with an extended list all the time.There have been upwards of three to four in¬vitations out at any given moment. The rec¬onciliation of the schedules of the very busypeople we invite with our own academic cal¬endar means that we have several invita¬tions w’hich have been outstanding for al¬most a year and a half, and wrhich we stillhope wdll be accepted at some future date.To make the names public before accep¬tances have been received would create allkinds of confusion, disappointment, andpossibly even embarrassment.The Committee, and particularly the stu¬dents who have been willing to give time toserving on it, have presented w'hat all of usbelieve is a remarkable variety of names,ethnic identifications, and the appropriatenumber of sexes, not to mention ideologicalconvictions and commitments to variouscontroversies. From the perspective of theprogram the only thing that is homogeneousabout the list of visitors thus far is the factthat they all had the time to make extendedvisits to the Campus and fit us into theirschedules. Yet I think it seems to all of usthat giving up the demand for extended timewould turn the program into another lectureseries which would be indistinguishable inquality from the many fine such programsthat already exist and draw their share ofinterested audiences. We are still trying formore than that in the interest of a genuinelyunique contribution to undergraduate life at the University.As we have continued to say in our an¬nouncements of the program, suggestionsfrom the University community are morethan welcome and will all be presented tothe Committee.Barry D. KarlProfessor of HistoryChairman, Visiting Fellows ProgramHarvard facultydefend HarbergerTo the Editor:Professor Harberger has now decided todecline an offer to become Director of theHarvard Institute for International Devel¬opment (HIID). The debate which precededthat decision included some charges whichwe believe are unfounded. The undersignedmembers of the Harvard faculty and of theHIID have therefore agreed to join in the fol¬lowing public statement:Although we differ about the suitability ofArnold Harberger as Director of the Har¬vard Institute for International Develop¬ment (HIID), we do not question the sinceri¬ty of his opposition to the unconstitutionaland repressive practices of the Pinochet re¬gime, as expressed in a letter in the WallStreet Journal on December 10, 1976. Thisletter, responding to opposition to the awardof a Nobel Prize to his colleague, MiltonFriedman, stated:Mr. Friedman and I are deeply dis¬turbed by the breakdown of Chile slong tradition of democracy andfreedom. We profoundly oppose au¬thoritarian regimes, whether fromthe right or left. That is why we haveconsistently maintained a distancebetween ourselves and the govern¬ment of Chile and have repeatedly-condemned publicly and privately, itsrepressive measures.Some of us differ with Harberger in our as¬sessment of the appropriate means of de¬monstrating our opposition to the Pinochetregime, but there is no difference of princip¬le between the position stated in Har-berger’s letter and our own.Harvard University ProfessorsStephen K.

I find it offensive in the ex¬treme to be forced to walk past such an ex¬hibition of the degrading symbolization ofwoman. It is an assault upon my integrity asa woman student besides being highly dis¬tasteful. Furthermore, I have found my ownreaction shared by a number of associates.In a response more political than personal,then, I demand that the crude and offensiveposturing of Infinity Productions not be al¬lowed to continue in Cobb Hall.Perhaps, though, this is only a more bla¬tant exposure of this institution’s underlyingattitudes towards women. The LasciviousCostume Ball this year is being advertisedas a sensual rather than a pornographic af¬fair. Male conceptions of sensuality seemrarely to appeal to the feminine populationAccording to The Maroon report some non-pornographic flicks will be interspersedamong the traditional fare this year.

By Sunday April 6. the Peru¬vian Charge’d’affairs in Havana reportedthat nearly ten thousand people were within the embassy compound. This is a heterogen¬eous group composed of people coming fromall the social strata of the Cuban society;common laborers, professionals, students,housewives, and children, both blacks andwhites.This large number of people is crowdedinto a relatively small, unsheltered arealacking basic sanitary facilities, with a li¬mited amount of food and insufficient medi¬cal care. Although President Fidel Castrohas given permission for them to leave thecompound and go home, most of the refu¬gees are afraid to leave for fear of possiblereprisal, and instead are anxiously awaitingan opportunity to leave the country.This unprecedented event in Latin Ameri¬can history calls for the attention and actionof all those concerned with basic humanrights throughout the world. These ten thou¬sand individuals have committed a desper¬ate attempt to gain political freedom andbetter living conditions. W'e must not ignoretheir plight, but rather put pressure on theinternational community to rescue thesehelpless individuals, by making appeals tothe Organization of American States, theUnited Nations, the International RedCross, the Department of State, and to Pres¬ident Carter.Felix E.

The assumption that paintingis extinct also illustrates some art critics'unfortunate ignorance of Artists and paint¬ing.To understand anything about what dis¬tinguishes Artist from artist involves be¬lieving in something that has to do with thedifference between an individual doingwhat he wants/desires/needs to do, and theperson flying to the Nazca Valley taking pic¬tures of pre-Inca carvings of the great godViracacha to incorporate into his next proj¬ect because a recent issue of the NewYorker announced that pattern painting is"in." The difference is important.To understand anything about painting isto know that the challenge, beauty, andmystery of painting will continue to make itan irresistible form of human expressionuntil something steals away our canvases,brushes, and paints.My commitment to this undertanding ofArtist and painting attract me to JoanSnyder, an artist unassociated with anyschool, whose work indicates an interest inboth form and content. About painting,Snyder says: "For me, when I started topaint, it was like I was speaking for the firsttime. I mean, I felt like my whole life, I hadnever spoken. I had never been heard. I hadnever said anything that had any meaning.When I started painting it was like I wasspeaking for the first time. And that's howimportant painting is to me."Nineteen of Snyder's paintings are on dis¬play at the Renaissance Gallery. Ranging inshape from one foot squares to 6' x 12" horizontal rectangles, the majority of the canvases approach the larger dimensions.While all of her work is done in oil and acrylic, she also uses chicken wire, cheese cloth,fabric, papier mache, twigs, and thread.The paintings represent a decade of the artists' life (1969 1979), and an even largerspan of the artists' emotions. We are givenSnyder's feelings about nature, womanhood, motherhood, time, space; and alwaysimplicitly, if not explicitly, her ideas aboutlife in general, about painting in particular.Many of the paintings on display illustrateSnyder's desire to relate painting to music."Symphony II" (1974) is one such example.Like many of Snyder's works, Symphony 11is a large horizontal rectangle divided byvertical and horizontal lines, creating a grid See Who You Really Are"Symphony II," 1974"Vanishing Theatre,” 1974network. Squares of color butt, blend, andviolate each other, resembling the harmon¬ies and discords of a symphony, if not thepeculiar relationship of order and chaos inlife. The concept of time, relationships be¬tween clarity and ambiguity, the concreteand the abstract, are constantly explored inthe formal elements of Snyder's work.The grid system contributes to the disec¬tion effect, as does the size of the canvas —which often extends beyond the periphery ofa viewer's vision, physically preventing the-viewer from seeing everything at once, in"Symphony II," Snyder pushes the viewer; further away from a single impact imagej through the juxtaposion of dominant red,black, and gold hues that fight for the eye'sattention.Like a musical symphony in which a de¬velopment of musical themes and variationoccurs over time but is never available to! the listener all at once, so too the Snyderj symphony presents competitive sectionsj not obtainable all in one moment.While most artists take advantage of theimmediate impact a single full-frontalimage has on a viewer, Snyder usuallyforces her audience to approach her paintsin parts. This difference is most clearly no¬ticeable in any attempt to recall a Snyderpiece after you walk away from it. Unlike alot of contemporary art that establishes asingle image so strong you need only closeI your eyes to re-establish it, Snyder's worksJ can't be brought back in totality, only inj parts. Like the part of a melody you re-j member when the rest of the song is as for-i gotten as the title.Considering Snyder's fascination with the! temporal and communicative elements ofpainting, it's not surprising that some of herother works establish a relationship between brush strokes and words, betweenpainting and narrative. "Vanishing Theater" (1974) is one such work.Perhaps the most interesting, if not themost disturbing piece in the show, "Vanishing Theatre" is a canvas divided into three"acts." In the upper left corner a programannounces the content of the piece: "Part l.Lament W words. Part II. VanishingTheatre/The Cut. Part III. Take yourclothes off lady and let's see who you really are."Below these words is "part one": a largepink breast above seven rows of angry presemantic brush strokes.In "part two," which dominates thecanvas spatially as well as visually, a gi¬gantic vaginal cut protrudes a menstrualblood red canvas. The wound oozes ou¬tward, despite an apparent attempt at closing it with thread. A heart of black fur andsmears of black paint surround the bulgingcut.In "part three" we see another Snydergrid work, this one ordered and harmonized; offering a resolution after the climatichorror of part two.The personal and artistic depths Snyder iscapable of reaching are most apparent ifone views "Welcome to This Land MollyFink" (1979) with active consciousness of | "Vanishing Theatre." How could one per¬son possess such strong contradictory emo¬tions about childbirth? Snyder's ability torecognize and express these disparate feel¬ings permit her the highest position amongfemale artists expressing uniquely femininefeelings.Molly Fink is the name of Snyder's daughI ter. As much as "Vanishing Theatre" isangry, painful, hostiel; "Molly Fink" iswarm, comforting, and optimistic. A largewarm pale green canvas is scattered withvertical objects, sometimes made of twigs,other times cloth. They reach upward, sug¬gestive of growth and the potential for goodness and life that only an infant possesses.Snyder's choice of theme reflects sensitiv¬ity, honesty and imagination. Her expression of these ideas oncanvasis skillful. Youhave one more day to experience it.LETTERS"Where We Are Now (Who Are We Anyway?)," Vito Acconci,1976AcconciTo the Editor:At the conclusion of Dan Schulman's ar¬ticle on the Vito Acconci exhibit, (greycity, April 4), I liked the way that he con¬textualized the retrospective installationin the larger frame of the museum as terri¬torial space, where the forces of revolu¬tion, desire, liberation, and the marvelousdo battle with the insipid and retrogressive(The Decorative Impulse exhibit). Mostpeople when they visit museums tend tocompartmentalize and serialize the dif¬ferent shows contained therein as isolatedentities, each existing in their own priva-tistic vacuum, or at most merely adopt thestance of the normative neofascist socio¬biologist, who emptily attempts a quantifi¬cation of the different spaces within themuseum into an escalating, competitivequest for territory. One example whichquickly comes to mind is the petitbour-geois office brat bitching that the accou¬trements and square footage in his cubiclearen't on par with that of a colleague whooccupies a parallel rung on the echelon ofnothingness.The lived space generated by Vito's ex¬hibit will always be exponentially more ex¬pansive than a thousand acres of thecreamed chipped beef passed off as "art"elsewhere in the gallery, no matter howmuch geographical space they occupy.For what Acconci has accomplished isnothing short of a deterritorialization; tocite Gilles Deleuze from Anto-Oedipus,"the person who excapes causes otherescapes, and marks out the land while deterritorializing himself — an active pointof escape where the revolutionary machine, the artistic machine, the scientificmachine, and the schizoanalytic machinebecomes part and parcel of one another."— C. Barnard HohnerRevolutionTo the Editor:Marx once said, I believe, that great revolutionary movements often take their in¬spiration from the past. If this is true, thenCurtis Black and Ken Wissoker's article onthe anti-draft rally in Washington (greycity, April 4) proves them to be revolu¬tionary leaders of great stature. I suspect,however, that the revived popularity ofdropping acid (although now "in a moresocial way," whatever that means) wasnot quite what Marx had in mind.The only clear impressions I get of theWashington rally from the article arethese: progressives of all stripes and con¬cerns don't like the draft, which is greatbut hardly a new revelation; and thatMessrs. Black and Wissoker thought thewhole thing was a real high (except forhaving to sing 'The Great Mandala"),which is good for them but of doubtful stra¬tegic use. I'm sure that Michael Harring¬ton, Ben Chavis and the rally's other lead¬ers are worried about more frighteningthings than the proper 1960's songs to singor the socially-conscious way of usingLSD, but I am not sure, from the article,that Messrs. Black and Wissoker are — al¬though they do mention that we live in "afalling empire." I think that real political,economic and social collapse would de mand a rather more thoughtful strategy(to say the least) than Messrs. Black andWissoker's hope that "we can reassureeach other that we are not alone." This isnecessary, of course; but is it adequate? Ifholding the rally on a rainy day can dimin¬ish revolutionary fervor, I wonder how itwill hold out under real revolution and re¬pression.I don't mean to ridicule the crucial roleof solidarity in any movement for socialchange, but I think there is more to it thangetting high on togetherness. Messrs.Black and Wissoker's own description ofthe rally shows it to have had a widely dis¬parate leadership with one common end —stopping the draft — and a fairly homoge¬nous following — white college students;the attempt to make it out to have beenMoratorium Day, Woodstock, and the Oc¬tober Revolution rolled into one is embar¬rassingly naive. If Messrs. Black and Wis¬soker really want to go through with thevery messy business of social revolution, Ihope they are prepared for somethingmore formidable than being "with allthese people who believe in good things,"or more uncertain than a recap of the Six¬ties.M. David SamsonFourth-year studentin the CollegeBlack and Wissoker respond:1. While the idea of a demonstration isto indicate that large numbers of individu¬als are committed and together on an issue— the content of this demonstration — thewords, speeches, slogans, banners, andbuttons — helped raise it to a politicallevel. Meaning not just a lot of people be¬seeching or threatening the government,but presenting a program as an alterna¬tive. We thought that one of the best pointsof the demonstration was precisely that in¬stead of opposing the draft on moral oranti-militarist grounds, speaker afterspeaker named the cause of the problemas the capitalist system, thus turning to apolitical analysis and away from "we canchange the world with love and flowers."The demonstration was also impressivebecause it was against the draft before thedraft, and against the war before the war.The number of women who were there aswomen, and the number of minorities, wasstrong. Thus we thought the demonstrationwas significantly different from the six¬ties, and tried to convey this difference inthe article.2. On the other hand, this was only a de¬monstration. We were calling on Congressto reject certain measures which they areconsidering now, which is what the situa¬tion calls for. This is quite unrevolution¬ary, and judging the gathering and its par¬ticipants on the basis of what would berequired to make a revolution is beside thepoint.3. To take acid out of one part of the artide, when it was only there as an illustra¬tion of the differences from the sixties, andblow it up to the main feature of a letterwhich was otherwise attempting to bringup political concerns, seems to us dishon¬est. (By dishonest we mean perpetuating asilence by claiming life to be somethingdifferent than how it is actually lived onthe ground, which is, after all, where weall live.) A large amount of acid, to saynothing of pot, is consumed in Hyde Park.But for some reason, like sex (and sexualpolitics), it remains a taboo subject for thenewspaper. If it is a part of many people'slives, why not talk about it and be honest,rather than perpetuate someone else's lie.We don't write the paper for our moms anddads — we expect aware people here to beable to deal with "controversial" subjects,whether they are involved with them ornot, and not blow them up out of proportion. If politics is something which reallydeals with life, then parts of culture, ineluding drugs and music, which have avital role in expressing, nurturing, and developing what people think as a group,cannot be ignored. If the author wished toread a pure "news" account of the events,he could have read Richard Kaye'sMaroon article in the same issue.

From years of experience and extensive training he has learned how to teach.Yet first and foremost, Ellis is a player, a reed virtuoso andan exquisite improviser. Fans can hope to hear Ellis' sax teatured sometime during the concert.Concerned with the lack of situations like those from whichhe learned, Ellis founded the workshop in 1976, and it is now-'art of a small renaissance of big bands and jam sessions. While it welcomes musicians of differing capabilities, theworkshop is composed in the main of serious, experiencedmusicians of a very high caliber. Guitarist Herb White takespart,, and AACM veterans John Jackson and Marvin Sparksanchor the brass.The workshop is actually an extended big band; since any¬one can participate, there are often ten or more trumpetersand a long line of reed players. The added punch of quantityprovides a driving propulsion to the band's hard-hitting repertoire; these musicians play because they love to play, andtheir enjoyment is infectious.

Opera star(Jill Clayburgh) takes her son (Matthew Barry) to Rome after her hus¬band's sudden death. The absence of afather figure and the exoticism of anunfamiliar culture trigger a psychological crisis in the son—in the form ofOedipal conflict. The delinquent son istransfixed by the magic of his mother;and the concerned Mom tries hard tocope with the situation, coming closeto the precipice of incest. The two trekthrough northern Italy groping for res¬olution. It finally comes when the son,following the leads of a vaguely remembered primal scene, finds his realfather. In a marvelously staged finale(at the famous Caracalla), the fatheracknowledges both his son and his responsibilities. The primal slap, bes¬towed on the son, restores the balanceof the family. And the moon, a harshmistress at the outset, now beamsdown on the three, giving them herblessing. Bertolucci treats the searchon a very personal level, wrenchingexcruciatingly revelatory perfor¬mances out of Clayburgh and Barry.His camera, guided by the master cin¬ematographer Vittorio Storaro, movessensuously and with intense involvement, making Bertolucci the third par¬ticipant in this intimate drama. Tonight at 6:45 and 9:30 in Quantrell.Doc; $1.50— TSSleeping Beauty (Walt Disney, 1958): Averitable masterpiece. This animationis among the most sophisticated anddazzling to leave Disney studios. Itsimagery moves from epic to pastoralromance without serious conflict andelicits both beautifully. The evil witchis terrifying, drawn with deep, threatening colors subject to irrational,blaring explosions. In addition, thestory is possibly Disney's most ma¬ture. The sentimentality normallyfound in his films is reduced by creat¬ing vulnerable characters and bycracking subtle jokes about the well-known tale (e.g., Sleeping Beauty con¬fesses to her animal friends that shealways wakes up when her dreamlover is about to kiss her).

Ritchie elegantly shows aman lose his integrity and individuali¬ty as he works to lose an election.That's right, lose. Robert Redfordplays a clean cut, affectionate, andbusinesslike social crusader who runsfor Senator his own way; he has noplans to win. Despite his protests to hiscampaign manager, or even becauseof these protests, he increasingly ignores public needs and develops onlythe persona the public wants. Ritchie'sstory moves slowly and continuously,never simplistically pointing a finger,but instead pointing out how this lossnaturally and inevitably occurs. Saturday at 7 and 9:30 in the Law School Au¬ditorium. LSF; $1.50. — GBLadies and Gentlemen: The RollingSlones (Roltin Binzer, 1972) : Due solely to its exceptional subject, this 88minute/14 song concert documentarystands—with the exception of Woodstock—a cut above the comparablefilms I've seen. Still, it's not great: because the camera centers upon Jaggertoo heavily, the film becomes tiresomedespite its brevity. Attention to Watts'face in close up or Richards' posingsin profile (to name only two examples)could have varied and thus improvedthe whole. Instead, Jagger dances,claps, prances, and croons. Since hisconstant motion makes him a difficultsubject, the cinematography seempoor. What's worse, the filmmakers—obsessed with the dynamic nature oftheir subject—extended the MOVEMENT! principle to the editing roomand ensured that as soon as a novelimage came onscreen, a cut was made to something else. As long as concertfilmmakers fail to realize that the qua¬lities of a good film differ from those ofa good concert, we'll be watching concert documentaries that only fans canenjoy. Tomorrow at midnight at Quan¬trell. Doc; $1.50. — DMNewsfront (Phillip Noyce, 1978): Begin¬ning with the end of World War II andending with the beginning of televi¬sion, this Australian film focuses onthe newsreel industry and on thenewsreel makers' private lives. Unfortunately, the film shares one ofnewsreel's most serious limitations:lack of development. Director PhillipNoyce alternates actual clips with dramatic scenes, accompanying themwith annoying shifts between blackand white and color. The result? A potpourri of colors, charactes, andthemes which hold together as well asa poorly spliced newsreel. Someknowledge of the Australian politicalscene might enhance one's enjoyment,but I doubt it. Sunday at 7:15 and 9:30in Quantrell. Doc; $1.50 — MWAn Evening of Silent Comedy: A threehour selection of silent comedy shorts,with authentic piano accompaniment.Even the folks at Doc couldn't tell uswhat all of the films will be, but we areassured that all the staples of thegenre will be adequately represented .Chaplin, Keaton,, Langdon, Lloyd,Charlie Chase, and Laurel and Hardy,as well as the ubiquitous Keystones.The selection varies from the mostaesthetic (Chaplin) to the sleaziest ofall, Laurel and Hardy. Among theothers are a few well worth seeing: aKeaton, minor, but well representative of his spatial insurgency; aHarold Lloyd short that features hisbrilliant technical invention and orchestration of gag upon gag; and onecentering upon Charlie Chase, as interesting for the home grown surrealism of Leo McCarey's scripting and direction as for Chase's own first classmugging and a very funny dance se quence.

Steiner's career began, in the early twenties withformal training under Clarence Whiteand has included fashion and advertis¬ing work as well as photography criti¬cism and cinematography. The cur¬rent show divides his work in two:photographs made, roughly, from 1920to 1935; and those taken from 1960 to1979. As Steiner's statement admits,the later photographs are less formalbecause, also according to the artist, ittook some time to “escape" the teach¬ings of White. Yet one prefers thestrong earlier works to the partly abstract and generally more personallater works because, along with for¬malism, subject matter also got lost inthe shuffle.

He manipulates asubtle and sophisticated variety intone and dynamics to enhance his har¬monically complex improvised lines.His tone is all his own — it ranges fromfluffy, feathery, fat, to hard edged; heburns at high tempos, and his slowerrenditions allow a very direct emotion¬al expressiveness. Altoist BunkyGreen took the other route — widelyexposed through his work with CharlesMingus, Freddie Hubbard, CannonballAdderly, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, andSonny Stitt among others, he droppedout of the music scene in the early se¬venties to discover and develop hisown music. Originally strongly in theCharlie Paker mold, he has developeda very personal extension of that tradi¬tion.

Halsted, tonight through Sunday at 8, $3,977 1739.by Jeanne NowaczewskiThe performing arts — dance, drama, andmime — are fragile, ephemeral creations.They need a small, protected space in whichto be, and a few hours of someone else'stime in which to communicate their exis¬tence. Even the best performances are subject to the erosion of time; after the eventwe find we are only left with a few memoriesof one or two stellar moments and a generalfeeling of satisfaction. Every performanceis in a sense a heroic offering. But if oblivionthreatens even the best performers, it certainly endangers amateur productions; in¬deed, probably we all have sat in a darktheatre and implored a sweet Lethean sleep 1to steal over us even as some such produc¬tion plods toward its seemingly unreachableend.I did not wish for such release during theMetamorphosis Mime Ensemble's presentation of director Claire O'Donnell's adapta¬tion of Ovid's Metamorphoses. Although theperformers manifested more ardent enthu¬siasm than pure talent the troupe is new, thebrevity of the performance bespeaks the 'group's modesty, and from it a few good mo¬ments emerge. *Claire O'Donnell's adaptation is morethan mere pantomime. Occasional narrationaccompanies a scene, the performers Jspeak singularly or chorally in certain instances, and music accompanies and even initiates some of their actions. The presen¬tation's strength resides with the individualstories that are told of Daphne, Jupiter,Echo, Narcissus, Arachne, Minerva, andIcarus. The other movements, "the creationof the world,' "the four ages," and the con¬cluding "Pythagorean images," symboliz¬ ing mankind's existence without gods, areredundant and unimaginative. The entireensemble of 7 seems crowded on the small !stage; movements interesting at their in¬ception don't have the space to develop.O'Donnell gives a few splendid arrangements of bodies in the individual scenes; the * wood nymphs who solicit Narcissus and thepond (made up of four performers, one ofwhom "reflects" Narcissus' adorations) areespecially effective. The comedy is delicateand sometimes subverted by the self-con¬sciousness of certain performers, but at itsbest, it is the show's greatest pleasure. Un¬doubtedly, Judith Belkin, who plays both loand Icarus, is the star of the show, easilymobilizing her gamine face into the bewil¬dered, ingloriously cowish beloved and theself indulgent, incautious young air man.She is so in control of her body, every movement is uncontrived and graceful and shecan devote her energies to effective charac¬terization. None of the other performers yetpossess this mastery of the body, althoughSusan McGrath as Cupid and Echo has anappealing franticness and Clair Romano asArachne displays steady dignity.The few images — the weaver turnedspider, the young boy-bird plummeting —are memorable and fascinating becausethey are formed by human bodies and faces,and formed in silence. The audience under¬stands the meaning of the story, or thepower of the displayed emotion, visuallyand emphatically; vague stories are nowsymbolized in my mind by these energy-charged bodies on a stage. I'd much ratherwatch a few sweating bodies like these in asmall storefront theater, even though theysometimes miss their mark, than sitthrough the pastiche parade that playsnightly at McCormick, or Water Tower, orthe other glittering theater palaces of Chi¬cago. Halcyon Repertory Theatre is to bethanked for sponsoring this new Metamorphosis Mime Ensemble; let's hope the company continues to explore and polish its abil¬ities.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGOpresentsA SPECIAL WOODWARD COURT LECTUREsponsored byTHE EMILY TALBOT FUND andTHE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISHEUDORA WELTAREADINGS FROM HER FICTIONWEDNESDAY.

WLUPisa back¬ward, heavy metal station which occasionallyblesses its listeners with a token punk song like999's "Homicide" or The Clash's "I Fought the Law."Local celebrity for the heavy-metal mongoloids isSteve Dahl, who, with his anti disco campaign lastsummer, single-handedly set Chicago race relationsback several years. Vying for the title of top DiscoJockey with Mr. Dahl is Sky "Scum" Daniels, a flaming hypocrite whose supposed love of the new wave andpunk rock only expresses his eagerness to jump on theband wagon of anything currently trendy.WLUP's latest rival in the most obnoxious stationsweepstakes is WMET. While WMET lacks the Loop'spretentions and its hypocrisy, its playlist offers nobreak from the heavy-metal of a Led Zeppelin, a BadCompany, or any other remnant from the stoneage.In contrast to these two stations stands WXRT andChicago's premiere new wave disc jockey, Bobby Ska-fish. WXRT draws from all sources of rock 'n' roll andis not dominated by ten or twelve heavies which appearon every FM playlist. WXRT disc jockey Bobby Ska-fish is one of the most important people in the Chicagonew wave scene and it was his unabashed support ofsuch new groups as The Specials and The Pretendersthat has helped these groups become so popular in Chicago.Bobby Skafish came straight to WXRT in Chicagoafter a brief stint in Indiana as a professional disc jock¬ey. Once in Chicago it didn't take long for Bobby's tastefor such groups as The Clash, The Sex Pistols, and theRamones to manifest itself on the radio. In addition tohis regular slot, Bobby acquired a Sunday night showcalled "Foreign Exchange," an hourly show dedicatedto playing imported music. In his hands the show be¬came about half punk and half avant-garde, spacemusic. Later, with new program director NormWinters, Bobby got "The Big Beat," an hour long showdedicated solely to the new wave. "The Big Beat" currently plays on Fridays from 11 pm to midnight.Not only was Skafish instrumental in getting this newmusic heard on Chicago radio but he and WXRT alsoco sponsored many punk and new wave shows in Chi¬cago. He was, therefore, also responsible for bringingnew groups to Chicago. Given his position and positiveinfluence on the Chicago music scene, I approachedhim at The Specials concert earlier this year. Skafishwas very pleasant and open to talking about his feelings on radio, WXRT, rival stations and the new wave.A meeting was arranged for a Saturday night at Neo onClark, where Bobby was guest disc jockey for thnight.kafish is a tall, skinny young man with short,curly brown hair and intense, spacey eyes whichtried to take in everything all at once. He woreblack slacks and a real cool black buckle shirt.Later he chose a Secret Affair button (from his bag ofbuttons which he brought along with him) and put it on.What follows is a portrait of a man both guarded andout going but above all a man genuinely dedicated togetting new and interesting music heard and seen inChicago.When did you first realize that you wanted to become adisc jockey?Maybe about my sophomore or junior year in collegebut I really didn't have the confidence to try it yet untilmaybe l was a senior in college. So I did it one year am¬ateur.Where did you go to college?Indiana University at Bloomington, Indiana.Did you grow up in Indiana?Uh, Hammond, yeah. Do you know where that is?Not really.Well, Hammond gets all the Chicago radio stations. Itgets all the Chicago TV stations. It's in the extremenorthwest corner of the state. In other words, part ofHammond borders on Illinois. My cousin Jimmy(Jimmy Skafish of the Chicago new wave group, Ska¬fish) is from East Chicago and I'm from Hammond.After your amateur stint in college did you comestraight to Chicago?No, not yet. There was uhh . . . The first people whohired me professionally were at a record store in Ham¬mond called S and J Stereo. They got the idea of takingwhat was a square radion station, like beautiful musicor something, and brokering out a couple of hours anight with a rock show. The owner had a record storeso he thought it would move a lot of albums. A guynamed Mike Green recommended me for the job and Idid that for six months. And l finally had to get out of it... at the same time I was sending some demo tapes to WXRT ... but I had to get out of it becausshow which I liked but then I had to sell atime and to make all the commercials. Andvertising time is just not me. I'm not a sales|not really acclimated towards that type of thit speeded up my quitting the show early. | wstayed a little longer but actually it was goothen I got... I gave a month notice, okay?the end of six months. But like one day in mythey fired me and confiscated my albums jreal pissy. It taught me a lesson right off ththat is that it's a dirty business. Anyway, soweeks later I got a job at XRT from demo tabeen sending in.When was this around? Mid-70's?I started at XRT on November 20, 1976.What kind of show did you start off with?It started off being one night a week Theshow, on a Saturday night and then it graduabe maybe two nights a week. And then fullnight show and then 10 pm to 2 am; later 9 pmand now it's 7 pm to 11 pm.What kind of music did you play then?I tried to play the best records that were i|There were less good records in there then tnow. And even something good that came outIn other words, the first two Jam albums we duntil recently. You know what I mean? DittoClash. So it was like that.Did they play The Ramones right away, at allNo. The first Ramones album added was theeissued after l started working there whichthird, Rocket to Russia.When did you first want to do specialized sh"Foreign Exchange" and "The Big Beat?"Well, actually it predates my arrival at WXRTworked at this place, WFLM in Crown Point, Inwas like a 3,000 watt station. Even then I wasThe Dolls, The Dictators. Stuff like that. Iwords, that kind of music I was sort of . . ycwhat I'm digging at? Before the big, "punk expI was playing Patti Smith at Crown Point and thI got to WXRT, I played, you know I definitelyfor that stuff, Patti Smith, David Bowie, Rox. . . uh, whatever would be in there. Then rightthat time . . . you know I would like to think frinfluence but, whichever, we started adding soner music and then things got even considerablyonce Norm Winters came to be the program dirmean, not to fault John Platt (the previous diitoo extremely. He was alright in a sense but hmuch more pro-new wave and has much more obackground than Platt,len / first arrived in Chicago in 1978,about a week or two searching for somethtenable on the radio. And then I disc"Foreign Exchange." How did that startPlatt recommended that "Foreign Exchange"but the thing with "Foreign Exchange" was theto play a lot of goofy music, you know . . .Yeah, space music.You know what I mean. So Norm was smart emsay, hey later for the ex space player from GeneThe Psychedelic Tangerines and all that stuff. Ijust to make it a new wave show. So that'(pause) Did you see The Jam?Yeah.Where? At the Park West?Uh huh.I didn't see them either night. I was workirnights. Hear they were too loud.Sorta, but I like it loud. What song did you firthat hooked you onto punk? Like for me, i guess"Anarchy in the U.K."Oh, l can't get that specific though, I really can'1ing this time The Pretenders' "The Wait" co,and Skafish leave the Neo office for a secondcheck out the dance floor.) Anyway, I couldn'one thing. I tell you though the first time I he("The Wait") though, I really dug it. I knew Ithis group. Maybe for you it was directly beingaround by a record like "Anarchy in the U.K."me it was more of a natural progression of stuibeen into like Bowie and Roxy and Mott the lEno and Iggy and all that stuff that just sort of sbeing punk, you know that type of thing.A lot of kids eighteen and nineteen missed thatthey missed The Dolls, they missed The StoogtThe Dolls, yeah really.They missed other good groups too because theheard them, unless you were from New York orwhere The Dolls and Stooges were local groithey played around a lot. You ended up listeBlue Oyster Cult, Styx, and Foreigner.

You see I was really forcing myself to listen to itbecause I really like rock 'n' roll especially old rock 'n'roll which my thirteen year old brother turned me onto.And I thought why can't stuff sound this good today?And when punk finally came around it reminded me alot of the old rock 'n' roll.What do you think about other radio stations in Chicagolike WLUP for instance? What can WXRT do to combatthe widespread propaganda that the Loop is responsible for every day?We can't combat it on their level but if we do, well, peopie will naturally gravitate, the people will tendtowards that and sort of even blot out the other radiostations and what the Loop does. See I'm not thatbitchy about other radio stations 'cause I just don'tfucking listen to them. And what I've heard just seemsto be a bunch of this master race, white music of justone loud band after another. Of Molly Hatchet to BlueOyster Cult to Joe Jackson (for token "new wave"),then back with some Cheap Trick then into Hendrixand Cream (and you know it's just absurd becauseHendrix would be the only black guy you'd hear at all).And it's just a bunch of shit and it sounds so repetifive... uring this time Bobby and I exchanged Sky Dan-dels anecdotes. One of the managers came intohhe office to tell Bobby that his cousin Jimmymight be dropping by and to ask about how manypasses he should leave at the door. After this brief in¬terruption we resumed our talk and began talkingabout meeting "Rock 'n' Roll $tar$" and about whatthey had to say.Don't you view it as a real learning experience to meetthese people who you consider to be heavy in what theydo? Do you know what I mean?Yeah.That's the way I look at it too. Even Bob Geldof (of theBoomtown Rats) I learned a lot from, seriously. Imean what you learn would be a different type of thingthan you pick up on from Joe Strummer but in it's ownway very valid.I think his view of himself as a pop star is pretty ton¬gue-in-cheek, which is really cool.Yeah, l agree.How do you feel about the media's attempt to makepunk palatable for the masses? Like Debbie Harry ison almost every TV variety show these days and shecomes on so sweet and nice.I know what you mean but it's kinda like we got whatwe wanted. Two years ago everyone bitched and saidthere's no exposure for this stuff and so now it's exposed, now you see all kinds of, you know, misfits and Idon't mean that in a good way buying these records and going to Debbie Harry concerts you know andthat's just the way it goes.I guess it's just the price you pay for success.I wouldn't let it bother you; I don't let it bother me.The music is still good I guess but it becomes commercialized and mass marketed.Well let's put it this way, Joe Jackson or Blondie mightbecome big commercial hits but this group that's play¬ing now, The Cockney Rejects — this ain't gonna be abig hit. So there's different levels of things, I think andthat's the way I look af it. When a group sells out orbecomes boring that doesn't really bother me eitherbecause there's always twenty more new interestingbands. In other words, at the point where The Clashstart to bore you then you pick someone else thatyou're enjoying more. That's the way I look at it. Justlike when Devo first came out I thought Devo was cooland then by the second time around it became less in¬teresting, less cool. B-52's when I first checked themout, although I didn't go hog wild about it, I thought itwas cool. You sort of tire of that for a while. I thinkthere's enough going on within new wave, I think one ofthe very basic premises of new wave would be thebasic premise of change ana not, you know, that ifsomeone fails you. That's okay as there are alwaysgoing to be plenty more good bands around. That's theway I look at it. Another thing to realize is when youtalk to these groups and they say stuff like, Joe Strum¬mer for instance says mods are shit, or Bob Geldof say¬ing the ska thing is going to be here today gone tomorrow. That's their own ego talking more so than eventheir own common sense, I think They don't want tothink anyone's going to be replacing them as kingpin.How do you feel about groups like The Clash putting outa great popular album and people knocking it left andright and calling it a sell out?Do you like that album?Yeah.It's alright by me. I mean not song in song out, butthere's enough on it. I like it. Sure. Yeah I know whatyou mean. It's actually predictable, those kinds ofcycles. Someone's a street-hero one day and, then thenext day they say, "Hey, he's sold out 'cause now theyhave a piano-piayer on stage." It's so trivial.t do you think a radio station or WXRT shouldto the people who listen to it?I can almost just talk about XRT, rather thanjust talk about what a radio station should do.You see it all depends on how they set their goals. Weset our goals to be eclectic in the most basic degree.Drawing from many sources. I think what our goalshould be is to keep in mind the idea of being eclecticand versatile. Covering a lot of bases and trying to dothe best of each of the genres the best way we can. Imean it's easier to get in all different kinds of rock thanit is to really get deep, deep, deep into reggae or deepinto jazz. In certain areas it's easier than other. Forone, like in reggae, we can't keep up the way that, say,some people can because the best reggae records areimport records that we just don't get. Rock is the easi¬est thing for us to keep up on in a real detailed styleand, I would say, blues we can do well because most ofthe great blues is already made right here in town. Ourgoal is I think to be progressive for the time that you'rein. In other words, to play what they call "progressiverock," to play "Roundabout," you know what I mean?Yeah maybe nine, ten years ago it was considered hotshit but now it's just like an old song, in other words, toplay The Specials when it's an import or even when itjust comes out domestically to play it and not to beatsome Jethro Tull song from ten years ago to the groundin 1980.How important do you think a sense of history is to rock'n' roll and to an understanding of it. I mean, it reallybothers me when kids think Sid Vicious did the originalversion of "C'mon Everybody" and "SomethingElse."In a way, I don't necessarily blame kids for thatthough, l think each generation is entitled to have itsown heroes. Knowing about the past in rock 'n' ro>l hasenriched my life, I'm sure it's enriched your life but Idon’t think it's an absolute necessity.For a final question, I wonder how important you thinkradio is in Chicago. It seems to me that it has a reallybig influence on the youth in this city — much morethan in, let's say, New York or Los Angeles.Well, I've been to New York, twice you kow for a grandtotal of eight or nine days so I can't really say.

It is no easyaccomplishment, considering that hiscast includes Hart Crane, ScottFitzgerald, and Sinclair Lewis, to namejust a few. By organizing the people andevents so effortlessly, Cowley creates athoroughly engrossing account of howradical movements affected writersduring the Depression.For anyone familiar with Cowley'sother books, such as his most recent, -ASecond Flowering or And I Worked at theWriter's Trade, his new book is not somuch concened with literary figures perse as with the radical movements thatattracted them during the early years ofthe Depression. Cowley, as the newlyappointed literary editor of The NewRepublic in 1930, was a "privilegedwitness of great events." Early in the'30s, he recognized that he would neverbe totally committed to the Communistor any other radical cause, but that didnot prevent him from suggesting his ownreasons for why writers like himselffound the radical movement soattractive:I would never be more thana fellow traveler, and yet Iwas an ardent one at thetime, full of humility, thedesire to serve, and immensehopes for the future. Becauseany disaster seemed possiblein that strange year (1932),so did any triumph. Suddenlythe range of possibilities had q.widened and deepened, as Ehad the picture of our 2relation to history. It was as uif we had been walking for uyears in a mist, on what Sseemed to be level groundbut with nothing visiblebeyond a few yards, so thatwe became preoccupied withthe design of things close athand — friendships, careers,love affairs — and then as ifthe mist had blown away toreveal that the level groundwas only a terrace, thatchasms lay on all sides of us,and that beyond them weremountains rising into thegolden sunlight. We could notreach the mountains alone,but perhaps we could mergeourselves in the workingclass and thereby help tohuild a bridge for ourselvesand for humanity.In his book, one senses that Cowley wasmost of all committed to reporting all thefacts, both good and bad, about theradical movements. While denigratingthe organization of the Communist Party,he is not unwilling to give the Partycredit for supporting Richard Wright andClifford Odets when they were fledglingwriters. He also seems to admire thosewho, unlike himself, were willing to go towork for a pittance at The New Masses,the organ of the American CommunistParty. On the other hand, for writers likeCowley who struggled during the '20s, theDepression was a relatively comfortabletime because they didn't have to worryabout money. There were many jobsavailable in Hollywood, and some foundjobs on magazines. It was therefore moredifficult for them to give up theirconfortable, middle class lives to themovement, because they had something this was his dangerous visit to HarlanCounty, Kentucky, during a bitterminers' strike, and a march toWashington with the Bonus Army todemand money from the government.Cowley, as well as others like him, wasattempting to make sense of this vastlychanged world through the radicalmovement.In what almost seems like a flashbackto the '20s, Cowley went to visit Scott and *Zelda Fitzgerald during the early '30s. Atthe time, Fitzgerald was working onTender Is the Night, and talking toCowley seemed to be a release for him:" 'Sometimes I don't knowwhether Zelda isn't acharacter that I createdmyself. And you know, she'scuckoo, she's crazy as a loon.I'm madly in love with her.Excuse me for a moment,I'm thirsty tonight.' "As the night wore on, Cowley realizedthat Fitzgerald was not thirsty for waterbut for gin (as Fitzgerald drunkenlyadmitted to him an hour later). In thisbrief portrait, as well as in others,Cowley casts a sympathetic eye on thosein the literary world less fortunate thanhimself.Cowley is equally at ease writing aboutHart Crane, another troubled writer ofthe '20s. We read an almost first-handaccount of how Crane committed suicideby jumping overboard on his way back tothe U.S. from Mexico. Cowley's first wifePeggy saw it all happen, and wrote to herex-husband about it. To Cowley, bothFitzgerald and Crane exemplified writerswho were victims of the '20s and whocould not possibly adapt to themovements of the '30s.When the offices of The New Republicmoved uptown from Chelsea in 1935, itheralded a change of a way of life inCowley's eyes for both him and thenation. Even the Communist Partyseemed willing to compromise andaccept members on their own termsrather than by Russia's rigid rules of theearly '30s:". . . In 1936 I said toEdmund Wilson, 'It seems tome that the comrades areacting more sensibly thesedays.' Wilson said, 'I likedthem better when they werecrazy.'

The bookis one of four selections in this year'sIllinois Short Fiction Series.Plains Songby Wright MorrisHarper & RowNearly all of this short novel iswonderful. Morris' natural attentiveprose tells the story of generations ofAtkins women. Remarkably strong, theyare nonetheless formed by accidents andobligations — most of which are (like themen these women marry) inferior tothem. Beginning with Cora, an innocent,stoic girl going West with a husband whois a stranger to her, the families spawnonly daughters. But each one is heroic,matchless in her flaws as in her charms.Morris follows them all, with theirunfolding responsibilities, to the dawn ofWomen's Liberation, when he seems tosurrender intelligence to surges ofdogma. Still, nothing compromises theindividual records of his women. Bysheer character, they accomplish whatno platform can, and under Morris' handthey make Plains Song immortal.Malcolm Cowleyto lose.In fact, during his narrative, it seemsthat Cowley led a charmed life during the'30s. There was his successful secondmarriage, and a long summer inTennessee with Allen and Caroline Gordon Tate, writing Exile's Return(1934) about American expatriots of the'20s in Paris. Cowley gleefully reportshow most critics at the time thought hisbook was inconsequential and would notlast. In stark contrast to activities likeSelected Short Subjectsby Molly McQuadeLocal Menby James WhiteheadU. of Illinois PressFor those unfamiliar with JamesWhitehead's verse, Local Men may comeas a shock. Throughout it, a personacasts its spell over narrative, insisting onitself even while seeming to denyself-consciousness as an artistic strategy.Read several times, the poems have amonopolizing effect: they push you into alocalized spot (the persona's territory)offhandedly, and without asking consent.Stiff and stark as they seem, the poemsexert quite a strength — a recognizableone, close kin to the poetry of Berryman(to whom one of Whitehead's poems isdedicated), Edgar tree Masters, and E.A. Robinson. By force of the personaruling the poems, a world, howeverimperfect, is built. Because of thepersona, consistent yet complex, theworld stands intact.In Whitehead's case, the persona giveslaconic and down-to-earth hints of itself.It is usually realized in the third person,and is pervasive even when secondary characters come to light. Uniting the"local men" of the volume, it makesobservations in the spirit of sheriffs, firefighters, smalltime farmers, loafers —and poets.The Gasoline Warsby Jean ThompsonU. of Illinois PressNo jacket blurb could call this firstcollection of stories brilliant or exotic,but they're refreshingly modest andexact.

She deals withquestions of decency — how people oughtto be treated, and what happens whenthey aren't.

For Cowley, theLeague typified the apathy felt by many jother groups in the latter part of the '30s. !The left-wing writers who had invitedLewis had no regard for him as a writer !but merely wanted him to become theirchampion. Recently, he had published ItCan't Happen Here, an anti fascist novel,and this, along with his status as a NobelLaureate, made him a desirable figure.Apparently, Lewis was not the fool theytook him for, because he said at thedinner:"Boys, I love you all, and awriter loves to have his latestbook praised. But let me tellyou, it isn't a very good bookI've done better books —and furthermore I don'tbelieve any of you have readthe book; if you had, youwould have seen I was tellingyou all to go to hell. Now,boys, join arms; let's all ofus stand up and sing, "StandUp, Stand Up, for Jesus."The boys and girls stood upembarrassedly. Horace (Gregory) and I made ourway to the door withoutsaying good night to theguests of honor."The dinner seemed to be but one of-thewarnings that the dream was shatteringin the latter part of the '30s. With theevent of the Spanish Civil War and theRussian Purges, writers as well as othersin the movement came to the realizationthat their models should not always berevered. As Cowley writes in his finalchapter, everyone in his crowd alwaysassumed that their cause would betriumphant, but that assumption was fastfading under the day-to-day stress ofliving. The fascists in Europe wereincreasingly threatening, and it seemedas if another World War was at hand.For Cowley, the dream did not shatter;it faded. However, he was not unaware ofthe tremendous loss of his associates.Throughout his book he remains anobserver first, participant second.Cowley's book is so crammed withfirst-hand reports that one has to respecthis judgement. His memories of thetimes are so vivid that it's hard tobelieve Cowley recalls them after fiftyyears have passed. The book is clear,concise, and fascinating, and doesn'tsuffer from the disjointedness of his lastbook — And I Worked at the Writer'sTrade.

How to Think About God—A Guide for the 20th Century Paganby Mortimer Adler MacMillanWindow display in Wabash Ave. bookstore.Lnassigned Readings Continuedthe grey city journal, Friday, April 11, 1980 — 11DavidMiller Greener Grows Our Grassby Martha Rosett"How did you happen to get this job?""I married a city girl," was Alfred Herb-ster's typically atypical reply.Actually, Herbster had just received hisforestry degree from the University of Illi¬nois at Champaign when the University ofChicago was looking for a Superintendent ofGrounds and Transportation. Herbster applied, got the job, and for the past 16 yearshas been the driving force behind landscapearchitecture projects at Chicago."I'd rather have you talk about the plantsthan about me," he said. Our interviewbegan when I walked into his office and he,seizing his coat and scarf, propelled meright back outdoors. "Let's walk around,"he said.We paused briefly just outside the build¬ing. "That's an Euonymus, isn't it?" heasked, pulling down the slender twigs of anearby tree, "what species?"Without waiting for an answer he ex¬plained that he uses a variety of Euonymus !species all over campus. These plants re- jquire little maintenance and no special Icare, and though they are susceptible to |scale insects, a relatively inexpensive and jinoffensive pesticide provides satisfactory jcontrol.Pest susceptibility is a major considera¬tion in landscape planning. Effective, inof¬fensive pesticides are rarely available.Plants with pest problems are difficult andexpensive to maintain, both in terms of pes¬ticide cost and of time devoted to monitoringthe condition of the plants.Elm trees are a good example of plantswith a pest problem. Originally the Chicagocampus was shaded by indigenous oaks. Asthese died out they were replaced by elms, Iwhich do not grow naturally in the sandy jlake shore soil: twenty-five foot square iholes were filled with black earth in which toplant the elms.When Herbster was hired, the campus hadmore than 300 living elms. Then Dutch elmdisease was accidentally introduced toAmerica on the East coast. As elm bark bee¬tles, the disease vectors, migrated wes¬tward, Herbster fought vigorously againstthe beetles and their fatal fungus.Elm bark beetles belong to a family ofbeetles that live in tunnels they bore just be¬neath the bark of trees. Each species has a jparticular fungus associated with it; beetles I ! carry the fungus spores and start fungus"gardens" in their tunnels. Although they| feed on the fungus, no+ on the tree itself, the•combination of tunneling and fungus growthgirdles the tree and eventually kills it.Herbster's control program is broad: alate winter spray kills off adult beetleshatching in the spring; sick trees are prunedand infected branches are removed so thatthe whole tree will live; if necessary, abadly diseased tree is sacrificed so that itwill not serve as a source of infection forother, healthier trees.Individual trees may get a VIP treatment.One particularly beautiful old elm in theback yard of the President's house showedsigns of disease — dropping yellowed leavesin midsummer — so Herbster used a fungi¬cide injection, benomyl, which can success-• fully fend off Dutch elm disease. Fungicideinjections are a last resort: the benefit of thefungicide is increasingly offset by thewounds made in the tree's trunk for each in¬jection treatment.For some trees such a trade-off is worth¬while. Herbster waved his hand towards thependulous twigs of the President's elm, saying proudly, "Buds look good this year — notthat that means anything," he added hasti¬ly, as though to avoid a jinx. He smiled andsaid he expected to be able to save thetree.His record is good. About 100 of our elmshave survived the disease that denudedcampuses and parks across the Northeast.Herbster's good management shows inanother example of a campus plant that hehas helped survive: the grass. Herbster hadspecialized in turf-grass management. LynnBender, U of C's Landscape Architect, saidthat the University's lawns used to look ter¬rible all summer. Herbster established aroutine policy of allocating money forsprinklers whenever new landscape proj¬ects are planned; now the campus staysnicely green all through the growing sea¬son."I think the campus's attractive qualities! are largely his doing," Bender said of Herb| ster.As official Landscape Architect, Benderdescribes himself as "the University Planner." His job involves planning building renovation and reconstruction, as well as working on initial designs for landscaping.Where Bender's work leaves off, Herbster's takes over. Herbster's job is to imple ment Bender's designs, but he does not dothis blindly; the two men take walks together, analyzing project sites and decidingwhat plants would be appropriate, where toplace them, and what outside factors to consider.An example of an outside factor is some¬thing called "people pressure." Studentsare particularly notorious for cuttingcorners, giving a new twist to Milton Friedman's statement that "people vote withtheir feet." Bender says that the best way todecide where to put paths is to see wheregrass gets worn away by people cuttingacross lawns.Yet, once paths are laid, new trails inevit¬ably appear, and obviously there must be alimit to the number of paths built in deference to people's whims. There is also a limitto the feasibility of re-locating existingpaths. One strategy for discouraging short-cutting pedestrians is a careful choice ofplant specimens.At the southeast corner of Eckhart Hall,robins gather each spring in the five—origi¬nally three—hawthorn trees. Herbsterplanted hawthorns there to prevent peoplefrom killing the grass by constantly cuttingacross the corner. He supposed that a fewthorny trees would be adequate incentivefor people to stay on the sidewalk.But three was not enough, nor was four:Herbster noticed that people were actuallygoing the long way around inside, betweenthe trees and the corner of Eckhart. Onemore tree took care of that, completing thecurrent five tree stand and eliminating"people pressure" problems in that spot.Usually Herbster discourages pure standsof trees. Planting a variety of species helpsensure that no single disease or pest willwipe out all specimens at once. To replaceshade trees as they die off, Herbster plants arandom assortment of hardy, native species: ash, maple, oak.Along the avenue running north fromHarper Library is an exception to the ran¬dom, mixed-species planting pattern ofshade trees. The original landscape plan setout a row of honeylocust trees: tall, jagged-twigged trees with picturesque seed pods.Now some of these trees are becoming hol¬low and dying of old age. Herbster pre¬serves the original row by replacing dyingtrees with young honeylocusts.Aside from this row, he discourages use ofhoneylocust. An insect pest called the mimoAl Herbster, Lynn Bender, and the Presidential elm.12 — the grey city journal, Friday, April 11, 1980 j sa webworm has recently spread to Chica-| go, and rather than engage in a potentiallyI expensive or futile battle, Herbster believesin cutting his losses and using other speciesfor new plantings.Recently he has put in stands of ginkgoes.Ginkgoes have had a bad reputation scandalous, in a sense: male and female flowersare on separate trees and the female trees,when fertilized, are notorious for their ob¬jectionable and odorous fruit.Nurseries, using techniques of vegatativepropagation, can now offer pure selectionsof male trees for landscape use. Males donot produce fruit and only cause problemswhen planted near females.Most of the small, bushy trees lining themain quadrangle are hawthorns or Cornel-lian cherry dogwood. The dogwood, thoseyellow fluffy-flowered bushes now blossom¬ing all around campus, are hardy enough towithstand Chicago's winter and still pro¬duce a good show of blooming in earlyspring. The dogwood bushes are easy tomaintain, an obvious advantage in any| large scale landscape plan, and they are at-I tractive year-round.The Morton Arboretum in Lyle, Illinoisprovided several of the older hawthorns oni campus. One, the specimen at the south endof the walk in front of Rockefeller, has the| distinction of being the most-photographed| tree on campus and was once featured onthe cover of the Tribune magazine.Because they are native, hawthorns haveno trouble withstanding the climate; theyare essentially pest-free and — close rela¬tives of apples, cherries, and roses — theyhave attractive blossoms. WashingtonThorn is the species now most commonlyprovided by nurseries for planting oncampus, but many of the older hawthornswere collected in the wild and are unidentifi¬able; Illinois has more than 1000 differentvarieties of native hawthorns.During each period of the blooming sea¬son, fresh herbaceous flowers are plantedalong the walk leading to the AdministrationBuilding. A trustee of the University, Ferdinand Kramer, donated funds for the flow¬ers in memory of his wife, StephanieKramer, who was Chicago's Landscape Ar¬chitect in the 1950's. Her specialty was de¬signing plantings utilizing flowers.Between the original landscaping, and 16years of Herbster's knowledgeable caretak¬ing, the University of Chicago has a particularly beautiful and well-groomed campus."Most of what is done on campus now is justgood maintenance," said Bender; thoughHerbster has re located some specimens tomore appropriate locations.Regenstein has the distinction of harbor¬ing the only beech tree on campus. Original¬ly the beech was on the main quadrangle,but eight years ago Herbster decided itwould do better in a new location. It nowstands on the west lawn of Regenstein,where it has enough space to spread its hori¬zontal branches, and enough sunlight to develop a good foliage color in summer. Beechtrees are showy, and are best appreciatedas single specimens rather than as one of acrowd or in a mixed planting.Several years ago a student did a forestecology study on the U of C campus. If ecolo¬gical productivity can be measured in squirrels, Chicago comes out a winner. "On a peracre basis, he discovered that squirrelswere denser here than in an oak forest,"Herbster chuckled. But the squirrels are toobold now, he said. Students feed them, anddiscover that squirrels cannot always tellwhere food stops and fingers begin. Thesquirrels apparently manage to keep wellfed: "Squirrels here gain weight in thewinter," Herbster said.It would be facetious to adopt squirrelpopulation level and condition as a measureof sound landscape planning and mainte¬nance.

Larsen, who will also serve asan associate professor of phsycial educa¬tion, was the athletic director and defensivecoordinator at Carroll College in Waukesha,Wisconsin before accepting his new posi¬tion.Larsen accepted the job, which he decidedto apply for in early February, primarily be¬cause he wanted to coach at a small, liberalarts college, preferably Division III. “The area high school coaches to find out whichdesired players are still available and he ishoping for success this spring in the recruit¬ing battles.According to Coach Larsen’s game philos¬ophy, Maroon fans should be seeing a morewide-open style of play next year than theyhave in the past. He plans on using a spreadalignment to use more of he field than otherMaroon teams have done in the past. Pass¬ing will be a greater part of next year’s at¬tack.This week Coach Larsen has been tryingBy Darrell WuDunnIn a preseason interview, coach ChuckSchacht had said that the success of hisbaseball team would depend heavily on thepitching. With two impressive pitching per¬formances by Ralph Hruban and Joe Kinczellast Saturday, the Chicago Maroons seem ontheir way to a fine season. In the openingday at home, the Maroons swept both endsof doubleheader from Chicago State Univer¬sity with scores of 8-1 and 6-1.Due to the poor weather conditions thisweek, the Maroons’ scheduled games atWheaton, Illinois Benedictine, and Lewiswere all cancelled.In the opener of Saturday’s doubleheader,Chicago jumped out to a quick lead. AfterChicago State failed to score in the top halfof the first inning, Maroon centefielder PaulHarris led off with a single. After stealingsecond, Harris scored on Scott Jansen’s longtriple. After the bases were loaded with aninfield single by first baseman Byron Trottand a walk to catcher Don Ciciora, Jansenwas forced home when Brian Weberwalked.After the Maroons added another run inthe second inning, Chicago State brought ina relief pitcher to start the third. The new'pitcher proceeded to walk six of the firsteight Maroon batters. When the inning wasover, Chicago had scored four runs on justone hit to increase its lead to 7-0.Chicago State finally scored in their halfof the fourth as Hruban had not allowed a hitin the first three innings. A Chicago Stateplayer reached first base on an infield hit,took second when Hruban’s pick off throwwent astray, and scored on a long double.The Maroons scored once more in the bot¬tom half of the fifth to finish out the scoring.With flawless relief by Jim Maranto in thefinal inning, Hruban chalked up the victory,allowing just two hits.TJie second game did not go quite assmoothly as the first, but the Maroons stillrouted the opponent. Chicago State’s leadoff batter reached second on a grounderthrough the legs of Dean Carpenter at sec¬ond. After being bunted over to third, therunner scored on Joe Kinczel’s wild pitch.But that was the only run Chicago Statewould score in the game.The Maroons did not score until the thirdinning when Bill Jankovich, playing right-field for an injured Jeff Foreman, singled tolead off. Three consecutive singles byHarris, Carpenter, and Jansen knocked inJankovich and Harris, and Chicago took thelead 2-1.The Maroons added two more runs in thefourth when Harris tripled home Jon Win-kelreid and scored on Carpentei’s RBI sin¬gle.The scoring was completed in the bottomof the sixth when Harris hit an inside-the-park homerun deep into left center fieldwith Dave Callans on base.Pitcher Joe Kincel registered a completegame victory. The Maroon ace allowed onlytwo hits and struck out three batters, al¬though he did give up four walks.Paul Harris starred with the bat in thesecond game going 3 for 4 with a single, atriple, and a homerun, scoring three times,and batting in three runs. Carpenter also hitwell with two hits and two RBI’s.Defensively, the Maroons played well in Sportsthe first game, but had some problems inthe second game, committing five errors.The two wins on Saturday puts theMaroons’ record at 2-0. With four rain outsalready this year, the team is well into itsschedule with only tw'o games played. Thislack of experience will certainly make to¬morrow’s doubleheader vs. Division I Uni¬versity of Illinois — Chicago Circle eventougher than it is already. The Maroons playat home again against Concordia TeachersCollege on Monday at 3:00 pm at StaggField.WHPK featuresCoach LarsenNew University of Chicago football coach,Bob Larsen, will be featured in an interview'on WHPK’s Sports Saturday tomorrow after¬noon at 3:00 p.m. on 88.3 FM. Also on tomor¬row’s show' will be interviews with severalChicago White Sox including manager TonyLaRussa in addition to the professional, col¬legiate and intramural sports roundup. proper emphasis on sports made this an at¬tractive place to look at.’’ Larsen’s immedi¬ate goal is to get as many players out forfootball from the campus as possible. Hewould like to hear from people who eithercame to the University to play, however de¬cided against participation, or players whohave played here, however since stoppedplaying for some reason.Larsen’s coaching philosophy is that hewould like to get everyone who is out for thesport to play in some capacity, whether it bekickoff teams, goalline defenses, or shortyardage situations.Coach Larsen believes that the fact thathis offensive and defensive backfields areweak should aid in his recruiting of fresh¬men who are looking for a chance to playright away. Larsen has been calling Chicago to meet the players (he had a team meetinglast night for that purpose) and work on re¬cruiting He will think about his coachingstaff in a week or two. University of ChicagoDirector of Athletics Jeff Metcalfe com¬mented on the appointment of Larsen. “I’mdelighted and I’m confident that he will do asuperb job. I think he’s a man who thorough¬ly understands us and division III. and thetype of student w'e hav here. I believe he willbe sensitive to a situation where studentsenjoy playing football, but are also fullycommitted to their educational goals.”The 48-year-old Coach Larsen took hisHartford High School (Wisconsin) teams tosix conference titles and four runner-up po¬sitions in 14 years. He compiled a 77-23-3 re¬cord there, before being named interimcoach at Carroll in 1977.From the pressboxFees rise, but are still better than mostBy Howard SulsBelow is the new schedule of fees for nextyear for the Athletic Facilities. Director ofAthletics Jeff Metcalfe explained the costincrease is due to a number of factors, in¬cluding soap, energy to do towels, the highnumber of towels being stolen, cage atten¬dance, office help costs, locks, cleaning, etc.The Physical Education department sub¬mitted a recommendation to the Board ofAthletics of fee increases, which was for themost part accepted.Before getting all riled up, it should benoted that fees have not gone up in fouryears, over which period of time costs wereconsistently underestimated at a loss tousers of the facilities. The differential costsof lockers between the Field House and theother gyms should help to reduce demandfor lockers in the Field House.Something to be remembered is that ourfees are still much lower than those at otherschools, while we enjoy a much greateraccess to more facilities. It is not uncom¬mon to hear of large state universities withonly eight handball courts, or no lockers andtowels for students, or separate facilities forvarsity athletes and much lower quality, ifany, facilities for other users. Also, otherschools charge higher fees, or have fees hid¬den in student fees.In this world, you get what you pay for.Examine the situation in terms of Compara¬ble facilities in the area. The University hasan eighth mile indoor track, a quarter mileoutdoor track, four handball courts, twelvesquash courts, including Bartlett saunas,two pools (whatever their quality may be),indoor tennis courts, six indoor basketballcourts, one of the finer weight lifting train¬ ing rooms around, and multi-purposerooms. Equal facilities in the private sectorwould cost a great deal of money. It is notuncommon to pay a few hundred dollars inmembership fees and court fees at a privateclub. Meanwhile we have better facilitiesavailable for only five dollars.One thing that is troublesome, and that isthe great number of no-shows for the hand¬ball and squash courts. Unfortunately, thedepartment cannot afford to monitor thecourts to make sure people are showing up. Stories of people showing up. checking offtheir name and leaving, are not to be doubt¬ed. It is unfair to everyone that this shouldoccur with no one being penalized. A muchbetter solution would be to charge a mini¬mal fee for courts, say one or two dollars,out of which someone could be paid to goaround and make sure the courts are beingused, with violators losing court privileges.This would most likely insure less no-showsat no cost to the Physical Education Depart¬ment, and at a minimal cost to all.PROPOSED FEES 1980-1981Locker Passes and Athletic FacilitiesPassesPermanent Locker Pass — Athletic Facilities PassBartlett Gym & Ida Noyes Hall (Temporary Lockers)Proposed1980-81 1979-1980Registered Students 1FacultvStaff* *Spouses of Students*Alumni & Alumni Spouses*Faculty & Staff Spouses* $17.00 $12.00$70.00 $50.00$70.00 $50.00$50.00 $50.00$90.00 $50.00$70.00 $50.00Permanent Locker Pass -Henry Crown Field HouseRegistered Students $27.00Faculty $80.00Staff* $80.00Spouses of Students* $60 00Alumni & Alumni Spouses* $100.00Faculty & Staff Spouses* $80.00 Registered Students $10.00 $5.00Spouses of RegisteredStudents $10.00 $30.00Faculty $45.00 $30.00Staff $45.00 $30.00Faculty & Staff Spouses $45.00 $30.00Affiliates-Faculty & Staff $45.00 $30.00Post-Doctoral $10.00 $5.00Alumni & Alumni Spouses $65.00 $40 00Patrons $250.00 $150.00Retired Faculty $20.00 $15.00*— when lockers are available.

Can I continue to exercise on asprained joint?The terms “strain” and “sprain” (as instrained or sprained ankle) tend to be ap¬plied to injuries in a relatively inconsistent,Ask Dr. Stulbergimprecise and, therefore, confusing way. Inpart, this imprecise use reflects the fact theterms do not describe an exact anatomic ab¬normality. Most commonly, strain indicatesan injury to a muscle and implies a tearing,to some degree, of the muscle fibers. Asprain is an injury to a ligament. Sprainsare graded in severity by the extent towhich a ligament is thought to be torn, e.g. acomplete tear of a ligament is said to be agrade 3 sprain. Ligaments are thick, fibrousstructures which are located about jointsand function to keep joints stable. When lig¬aments are torn or stretched, joints becomeunstable and may give out <as in knee orankle ligament injuries) or may dislocate(as in finger ligament injuries).Ligaments exert their stabilizing effectwhen joints are stretched to the limit oftheir norma) motion. If a joint is kept fromreaching the limits of its normal motion, theligaments around the joint will not bestressed or stretched. Thus, if a ligamenthas been injured or is missing, one way toavoid the consequences of that ligament in¬jury is to prevent a joint from reaching thelimit of its motion, e.g. with a splint orbrace.When a sprain occurs, a ligament hasbeen torn to some degree. This tear is asso¬ciated with some bleeding and, consequent¬ly, swelling. The objectives in treating asprain are: (1) to obtain as much comfort aspossible; (2) to promote healing of the liga¬ment in such a way that the stability of a joint will be retained. The amount of swell¬ing which occurs shortly after a sprain is areasonable indication of the severity of theinjury. If there is relatively little swelling, itis usually reasonable to treat the injuryyourself. If the swelling is more marked, orif the pain seems out of proportion to rela¬tively mild swelling, the injured joint shouldbe examined by a physician and, perhaps,x-rayed. In my opinion, sprains, if signifi¬cant ones, which are promptly and aggres¬sively treated may result in very little delayin return to athletic activity. However, if, asis often done, sprians are treated casually,e.g. with an ace bandage and rest, then evenminor sprains can become nagging and per¬sistent sources of discomfort and a pro¬longed hindrance to the resumption of fullactivity.Initially, treatment should be aimed atminimizing swelling and placing the injuredjoint in a position for optimum ligamenthealing. If swelling is controlled, discomfortw ill be lessened and rehabilitation exerciseswill be possible to initiate early. Swelling isbest controlled by elevating the injuredjoint constantly (especially the first 24hours after injury), appying ice to the in¬jured joint, and immobilizing the joint. Acompression bandage may be useful butwill probably really only be helpful if it alsoimmobilizing. Splints can often be con¬structed which, once applied, provide botheven compression and effective immobiliza¬tion. These splints can often be w-orn whileparticipating in sports. The joint should beimmobiiized in a position that puts the leaststretch on the ligament. Thus, in a commonankle sprain, the best position for the ankleis w’ith the foot at a right angle to the shin.Crutches may be a good idea for a couple ofreasons. Putting weight on the injured jointmay (1) cause pain and (2) may cause theligament to be stressed. The more securethe immobilization, the more comfortableand secure weight bearing will be. Taping is a reasonably effective way of immobilizinga joint. However, it is probably best not toapply tape to a freshly sprained joint. Swell¬ing may occur and cause the tape to pull theskin, causing blisters. Once the swelling hassubsided, however, taping can be safelycarried out.Exercises to gain muscle control andstrength should be started as soon as thepain has subsided enough to permit them.Isometric exercises (contracting the mus¬cles without moving the joint) can be start¬ed while the joint is immobilized. Resistiveexercises with weights can be started assoon as the swelling has subsided. It is veryimportant that all muscles around the in¬jured joint, especially those resisting themotion which produced the sprain be strongand functioning effectively before full activ¬ity is resumed. If an exercise program is notcarried out and the swelling is simply al¬lowed to subside before activity is resumed,the joint will feel unstable or weak, andreinjury is a real possibility.It might be advisable to wear a splint orbrace for athletic activities, even if an effec¬tive rehabilitation program has been car¬ried out, if the sprain was particularly se¬vere or if the joint has been sprainedfrequently in the past. A program of earlyand effective exercise and well plannedbracing or splinting will often allow a returnto a very significant level of atheltic activityin a suprising short period of time.These recommendatons are appropriatefor the usual well built, properly condi¬tioned University of Chicago student or staffmember. There are, however, occasion in¬dividuals whose ligaments are so bizarrethat rehabilitation is impossible, For theseindividuals, who, according to all publishedaccounts, work, play and suffer theirsprains only in the offices of the “Maroon,”the proper treatment is to: Cut if off andsend it to me for a look. Take two aspirins,and send me ten dollars.22—The Chicago Maroon, Friday, April 11, 1980tA—von, i ii im« «Kbo» H ,nooib»v, yyb JifO on I Women closeundefeatedBy Nancy FloresThe final meet of the indoor season lastquarter threatened to be the toughest of theseason for Chicago’s women’s track team.Two Division I schools. Lake Michigan Col¬lege and Chicago State University, alongwith Beloit College. Eureka, and ConcordiaTeachers College attended.As expected, Lake Michigan and ChicagoState made a clear sweep of the springingevents; the 60M., 200M., and the 400M. withthe exception of state champion SandySocha who placed second in the 400M. event.However, neither Lake Michigan nor Chica¬go State had the strength to dominate. Onceagain the University of Chicago womenshowed their consistency, depth and powerby placing or winning in every other event ofthe evening, thus smoothly defeating theother five teams; Chicago 139, LMC 114,CSU 60, BC 22, CTC 20, and Eureka 18, to endtheir indoor season undefeated.The 5,000 m. run, 4x200 relay, and the milerelay were highlights of the evening as CindiSandborn smashed the school record in the5,000 by almost 20 seconds, with ChristiNordheilm close behind to take second. Thefirst 4x200 relay of the season composed ofElizabeth Baker, Hope Sirull. Casey Kerri¬gan and Carole Petersen ran well taking apromising third. The excitement as Chica¬go’s mile relay team of Vicki Powers. BeckyRedman, Alison O’Neill, and Kathleen Res-tifo, made a dramatic comeback againsttLake Michigan only to lose it in the last 100meters.In the field events Becky Redman, andKaren Jensen took first and third, respec¬tively, in the high jump. Redman alsoplaced first in the long jump, while NancyFloers, and Ginger MacDonald took fourthand sixth. Laura Uerling, in only her secondcompetition, took sixth in the shot putamongst a field of relatively seasonedthrowers, setting a new indoor record.Vicki Powers, in her last indoor competi¬tion for Chicago did exceptionally well byplacing in the 60 M. hurdles, in the 1,500, andas a member of the mile relay team.
