The"Calvert family" of today at the U of C attempts to maintain that tolerance and to offer warmthand acceptance to all.At Calvert House people ask many questions. They do not ask about Sunday Mass obligations;they ask the meaning of Mass and worship, They do not ask what truths are to be believed; theyquestion the significance of faith and what it does to an individual and a community. They do notask what the sex of a minister ought to be; they ask what Christian ministry is and how it can bestbe accomplished. The question is not what Calvert House can do for a person, but how a Calvertperson might live the Gospel and therefore help the University discover its riches.„ , PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIESPrayer Group....

Gale JohnsonGrads to Teachin Econ CoreBlaming staff shortages which resultedfrom large enrollments and the departure offour faculty members last year, the eco¬nomics department decided this summer touse graduate students to teach certain un¬dergraduate courses this year.Graduate students will teach some sec¬tions of the economics “core” courses, ac¬cording to economics department chairmanD. Gale Johnson. These four courses, eco¬nomics 200-3, are required of all undergrad¬uate economics concentrators. Economics200 and 202 are also popular electives forstudents in other departments.Students registering for some of the corecourses this year will have to choose be¬tween a large section of the course, taughtby a faculty member, and one limited to 25students but taught by a graduate student.The graduate student teachers will be su¬pervised by a faculty member, Johnsonsaid.The number of undergraduate economicsconcentrators has grown by 300 percent inthe past decade, while the number of facultyin the department has remained stable.There are now about 225 economics concen¬trators.This influx of students has swelled classesin the department in recent years. The staff¬ing situation became even worse last spring,when two of the four department facultymembers reached their decisions to leave atthe end of the year only after it was too late to hire replacements for the coming year,Johnson said. These late departures, com¬bined with the continued large enrollment ofundergraduates, prompted the departmentto offer sections taught by graduate stu¬dents as an alternative to even largerclasses, according to Johnson.Johnson said that he hoped the use ofgraduate student teachers would not be¬come a permanent feature of the depart¬ment. The only other department in the Col¬lege which makes extensive use of graduatestudents is the mathematics department.The four faculty members leaving the de¬partment were Donald McCloskey, AndrewAbel, Nicholas Kiefer, and Dennis Carlton.Students Hurt inSummer AttacksAugust 30A third-year student in the College wasstabbed several times as she struggled toescape an apparent rape attempt in theearly morning hours of Saturday, August30.According to a police report of the inci¬dent, the victim had been accompanied byfriends to the corner of 54th Place and Uni¬versity Avenue after leaving Jimmy’s. Shethen walked west alone along the alleywaybehind the Lutheran School of Theology.Soon after turning north onto Greenwood, atabout 1:35 a.m., she was grabbed by a manwho tried to force her into some bushes infront of a home on Greenwood. Immediate¬ly, the woman screamed and the man beganstabbing her. Neighbors awakened by thescreams came to their windows and severalcalled the Chicago Police. Scared as thelights came on in nearby buildings, the as¬sailant fled.When Chicago police arrived on the sceneat 1:40, the attacker was gone. Because theyjudged the woman’s wounds too severe towait for an ambulance, the officers rushedher to Billings Hospital in their squad car.The victim was treated for wounds in herback, right forearm, and abdomen. She isnow recuperating at home.No suspect has been apprehended in thecase.The victim described her attacker as a20-30 year old black male, between 5’6” and5’9”, and with a dark complexion. Policehave not been able to compile a more de¬tailed description. — Edgar ArredondoJuly 23A University student was robbed at gun¬ point in her apartment on the 5400 block ofSouth Ellis at about 4:45 in the afternoon.She escaped a rape attempt by leaping fromher second-floor window. The woman suf¬fered a broken hip in the fall.Shortly after the incident, police arrestedWilliam Taylor in the gangway of a nearbybuilding. The arrest was made after a resi¬dent of the building trapped Taylor in thegangway and called police. Taylor wascharged with armed robbery and home in¬vasion.Grad Student DrownsAndreas Papastavridis, 30, a graduatestudent in the department of physics,drowned July 15 while swimming withfriends near the Point. His companionscalled authorities after they noticed that Pa¬pastavridis was missing. The accident oc¬curred at night.Papastavridis was a leader in the studentrevolts against the Papandreov governmentin Greece and had spent six months in aGreek prison for his activities. He is sur¬vived by a wife and a child, both inGreece.College Names HallNew Admissions DeanThe College got a new admissions directorthis summer when Dan Hall, former Direc¬tor of Financial Aid at Northwestern Uni¬versity, was appointed Dean of Admissionsand Aid in the College. Hall began work inJuly.Hall replaces Fred Brooks, who resignedas Director of Admissions and Aid lastspring. Brooks is now the admissions direc¬tor at Vassar College.When inteviewed shortly after acceptinghis new post, Hall declined to comment onthe need for specific changes in the Col¬lege’s admissions programs. However, hedid emphasize the importance of achievinga more balanced male-female ratio and in¬creasing the number of minority students.Hall’s new title indicates a strengtheningof the position of the College’s chief admis¬sions officer. As Director of Admissions andAid, Brooks reported to Loma Straus, Deanof Students in the College, who in turn re¬ported to Dean of Students in the UniversityCharles O’Connell. But Hall, as Dean of Ad¬missions and Aid, will report directly toO’Connell. Grads to Payfor ‘Substantial’ ChatsStrained by a large number of graduatestudents and a small faculty, the Committeeon Human Development decided this springto enforce a rule requiring doctoral candi¬dates to pay a fee for “substantial” consul¬tation with their faculty advisers.According to Committee chairman Miha-lyi Csikszentmihalyi, such consultation willinclude “evaluating papers, proposals, ordissertation drafts.”The rule requires Ph D. candidates in theCommittee to register for at least onecourse in the autumn quarter if they want toconsult with their academic advisers anytime during the coming year. The graduatestudents affected by the rule will be those inthe Committee who have completed their re¬quested cousework but are still working ontheir dissertations.The Committee on Human Developmentnow has 106 graduate students and nine full¬time faculty. Twenty-two other facultymembers are associated with the Commit¬tee on a part-time basis. Forty-two of thegraduate students were registered forcourses before the announcement of the newregistration policy.A University policy states that any stu¬dent using faculty time must be registeredfor a course, but this policy is apparently notstrictly enforced by any other department.The stringency with which the Committeewill enforce the rule is not yet clear; Csiks¬zentmihalyi said in a letter to The Maroonthat the Committee's “policy concerningregistration is not that different from otherdepartments,” because exceptions will bemade according to “individual circum¬stances.”Fall Enrollment RisesAn intensive effort to contact enteringstudents over the summer led to an unex¬pected rise in the size of this Class of 1984,according to Dan Hall. Dean of College Ad¬missions.More than 30 students above the numberexpected last spring will enroll in the Col¬lege this week. Hall said. The increase haskept on track plans for an expansion of theCollege.This year's entering class now stands at734.

Gray even¬tually hopes to increase the size of the Col¬lege from 2700 to 3000.Most College administrators werepleasantly surprised at the increase of 39students during the summer. The jumpcame not because the College made new of¬fers of admissions, but because the office ofthe Dean of Students made an effort to callstudents who had neither accepted nor re¬jected offers of admissions, to try to con¬vince them to come. In addition, the Dean ofStudents office attempted to contact allstudents who had accepted offers of admis¬sions to see if they had any late questions.Special effort was made to reach studentswho had showed uncertainty about atten¬ding by not sending in their housing deposit.“There was no difference in the admis¬sions rate,” said Hall, who took over asDean of College Admissions at the beginningof summer. “The difference came in thehold rate. This year 41 percent of thestudents offered admissions have accepted,while last year only 39 percent accepted.That’s greatly due to the effort made by theDean of Students’ office.”In addition to the first-year students, 97transfer students will enroll this week, downslightly from the 103 who enrolled last year.The new class will resemble the class of1983. There will be 490 men and 244 women,a ratio of slightly more than 2-1. Bruckner Calls it QuitsD.J.R. Bruckner, the University’s Vice-President for Public Affairs, will resignJanuary 1, 1981. His office directs the Uni¬versity’s public relations effort.Bruckner refused to give any reasons forhis departure or disclose his future plans. Areport in Kup’s Column in the September 17Chicago Sun-Times said that Brucknerplanned to return to writing, but Brucknerwould say only that “Kup knows more than Ido.”Bruckner, a former reporter for the Chi¬cago Tribune, came to the University in1972. No replacement has yet been named.Food Comesto CampusThe number of campus eateries will growby one next week when Morry’s Deli opens abranch in the University Bookstore.Morry’s reached an agreement with theUniversity this summer to provide counterservice just inside the Bookstore’s new 58thSt. entrance.

After weeks of seeing nothingbut asphalt, smelly CTA buses, and crowdedblocks of dirty brick buildings we all startlonging for the great outdoors: trees, grassypastures, rolling hills, or a body of clear,blue water.

The Indians knewit for its wild onions. Before white settlerscame, Chippewa, Ottawa, Sauk, Miami,Winnebago, and Potawatomi all inhabitedthe southwestern shores of the lake.As soon as traders and manufacturersrealized the geographical advantage of thearea, they immigrated in droves, but fewhomesteaders followed. The federal govern¬ment put the land of Hyde Park Township upfor sale, but there were few takers.There were good reasons not to buyland south of the Chicago River — two inparticular were swamp and mud. SamuelEllis’ 200 acres between 35th and 39thstreets were affectionately known as “themud farm”. A brave man named Dr. Eganenvisioned a rambling Irish estate in HydePark, complete with man-made hills andimported Irish trees, but his dream boggeddown in the mire.But as Chicago swelled so did the suburb’spopularity. The city had only bare rudi¬ments of a sewer system, so typhoid andcholera ran rampant; the sheer number ofinhabitants on unpaved streets made thecity a year-round mudhole, and the influx ofmoney brought with it prostitutes, gam¬blers, and thieves. By the 1850’s people withmoney were building homes outside thecity.The first suburbanites moved north, thenothers moved south as far as the IllinoisCentral could take them. Hyde Park wasstill beyond the tracks though.In 1853 a man with money and foresight,Paul Cornell, bought 300 acres between 51stand 55th streets, and deeded sixty to the ICwith their promise to build a passenger sta¬tion there. Three years later they did, at53rd, and in no time Hyde Park Center was athriving community.Planning attracted wealthy residents.Cornell wanted Hyde Park Center to have asystematic street plan with decorativeparks, a hotel, a church, and most impor¬tant, some sort of non-industrial institutionto unify the neighborhood and provide asteady population. This had been done suc¬cessfully in Evanston with NorthwesternUniversity.Hyde Park Center was incorporated in1861. Under Cornell’s leadership residentsbuilt paved streets, sidewalks, and a sophis¬ticated system of drains and sewers thatfreed the marshy land from the vicissitudesof Lake Michigan and rid the area of sum¬mer’s intolerable mosquito population. The main basin at the Columbian ExpositionUnion mobilization. A large Union Armytraining camp surrounded a prisoner of warcamp on the lakefront between 31st and 35thstreets.Throughout the war immigrant workersflooded into the city and land values contin¬ued to rise, especially in peaceful HydePark. After the war many Union soldierstook their mustering-out pay and their wivesto build homes in Chicago’s suburbs.In 1870 Chicago had without doubt thestrongest economy in the country, but thecity itself stood on a ramshackle foundation.Almost everything, sidewalks and all, wasbuilt of wood, a mark of its boom-towngrowth.In the summer of 1871 only two and a halfinches pf rain fell. One Sunday evening, Oct.8, a small fire broke out just southwest ofdowntown. The fire spread and spread.Within 24 hours, the city from Taylor to Ful¬lerton, 2200 acres in all, had burned, leaving100,000 homeless. Many Chicagoans savedthemselves by spending a cold night in thelake. Amazingly, the fire took only 250lives.The conflagration was seen as far away asLake Geneva, W isconsin, so it is no surprisethat Hyde Park residents felt blessed bytheir salvation. It is also no surprise that thesuburbs grew still more popular. During thenext ten years, as Chicago rose from itsashes, Hyde Park Township’s populationquintupled.Growth and AnnexationThe 70’s and 80’s saw expansion of wealthand great advances in the quality of life inHyde Park Center. Better sewers and afresh water system were installed. Streetswere improved and streetlamps added. Butthe growth brought problems too. , now a lagoon in Jackson Park.collar commuters and blue-bloods in HydePark Center had no desire to pay for landfillson Lake Calumet; nor did the blue collar wor-kersinthe south appreciate their neigh¬bor’s attempts to ban liquor in all of HydePark. Hyde Park Township was designateda ‘village’ in 1872, but it was already split¬ting up.In the late 1880’s the trouble came to ahead. Hyde Park Center residents foundthemselves forced to subsidize the verycommunities that were fouling their air andwater, while the industrial communitiesfound their growth checked at every turn bystodgy Hyde Park Center.One popular solution would have dividedthe village into three: Hyde Park, South Chi¬cago, and Pullman. Others felt Hyde ParkVillage should be made a city. But the an¬nexationists won out.Chicago had every reason in the world towant Hyde Park Village. Through annexa¬tion, it could tax the rich homeowners aswell as the industries, gain large amounts ofunclaimed land that it could later sell, andby annexing Hyde Park Village, Chicagowould more than double its size, making itthe second largest city in the nation, thusgaining political power. With the ChicagoTribune behind them, the annexationistsswept forward. On June 28, 1889, the entirearea of Hyde Park Village became the southside of Chicago.Hyde Park Center residents had fearedmany aspects of the change; loss of theirgood independent school system, repeal oftheir temperance laws, corrupt city offi¬cials, and the mere approach of the brawl¬ing, noisy city. Most of all, they feared HydePark as a community would simply vanishinto the megalopolis.Some, (and eventually most) of their fears proved correct. But annexationbrought many advantages to residents, in¬cluding better police and fire protection,and funds for an even better water system.(As technology improved, water systemswere rebuilt about every ten years.)Surprisingly, Chicago barbarians did notoverrun Hyde Park as feared, but rathertreated the area as a special enclave amidthe hustle of the big city.Washington and Jackson Parks werecarefully maintained for swimming, boat¬ing, and promenading in the warm months,with ice skating and sleighing in the winter.Gardens in the grand European style gracedevery fairway and, in pre-lawnmower days,sheep cropped the lawns.Hyde Park seemed only to grow betterduring this time. Its population of artisans,merchants, and professionals continued togrow, while rising land values insuredagainst industries or tenements. Culturaland social life flourished in local symphon¬ies, play houses, dance halls and libraries.Hyde Park had feared death before thecity, but actually found rebirth. The oldmoney had had its day, but now a tremen¬dous influx of new money, talent, and cre¬ative energy sifted through the city intoHyde Park. The city planners were thinkingbig — in 1891 they unveiled plans for theWorld’s Columbian Exposition.Meanw-hile an odd company of Baptists, aChicago merchant, and America's greatestrobber baron were searching for a place tofound a Baptist University to serve theWest.Hyde Park’s Greatest MomentIt is debatable whether the Exposition of1893 benefited the community or blighted it,but one thing is certain: it was the greatestspectacle Chicago had ever seen. For thatone year, Hyde Park was the center of theworld.The Exposition, commemorating the400th anniversary of Columbus’ discovery ofthe New World, was billed as, “an interna¬tional exhibition of arts, industries, manu¬facturers, and products of the soil, mine andsea.” This was putting it mildly. It took twoyears to set up; thousands of laborers livedin tent camps in Jackson Park and along theMidway, together with sculptors, artists,and architects. 650 acres of land were land¬scaped, and W’ooded Island created. The ICraised its tracks to their present level andpurchased forty-one new locomotives tohandle the crowds. The Elevated, alreadyserving the north side, extended its tracksdown 63rd street to the fair, ending on thesecond level of the Transportation Buildingthere. Millions of dollars were invested inhotels, apartments, and boarding housesand stores in Hyde Park. The quiet littleHyde ParkTownship covered anarea greater thanChicago itself. In1886 Hyde ParkCenter had 4,750residents, but HydePark Townshipboasted 50,000. Thearea to the southalready housed thegreat steel mills ofthe Midwest; to thewest the Union StockYards wereestablished duringthe War; and thesouthwestern sec¬tions were still rural.Needless to say,each community hadvery different in¬terests. The w'hiteBy Philip MaherFrom 1830 to 1900, while Chicago grew fas¬ter than any city in the world, Hyde Parkcarefully cultivated an atmosphere of dig¬nity, aloof from the noise, filth,, and perils ofthe brawling metropolis. Despite the arrivalof the city at its gates, Hyde Park today re¬tains its calm splendour. The neighborhoodis a tribute to the love, artistry, and wealthof the Victorians. Unfortunately the draining cost HydePark its placid streams too. All that re¬mains of one willow' lined creek is a few wil¬low trees in the alley between Kimbark andWoodlawn.War and Peace and FireThe Civil War made business boom in Chi¬cago. The city’s industrial might and top-notch railroad system made it the hub ofHyde ParkHistoryfrom mud to majesty12 The Chicago Maroon, Friday, September 26, 1980 PhotoscourtesyUniversityofChicagoArchivesJFirst scoffed at as “Ferris’s Folly,” the original Ferris wheel became one of the Exhibi¬tion’s most popular attractions.neighborhood of Woodlawn became denselypopulated during the fair.“The City White”, as the Exposition wasdubbed, received its name from the plasterof paris-like material it was built from. Ahodge-podge of Neo-Classical and variousethnic designs dominated the architecture.The Electricity Building was a favorite,featuring a model “all electric house.” whilethe Cold Storage Building helped introducethe manufacture of ice to the world. AWoman’s Building, designed by Sophia Hay¬den, honored women’s culture and held aforum for women’s rights.Most spectacular though was the originalFerris Wheel, invented by Mr. Ferris him¬self. He was at first denied concessionrights, but finally allowed to build the wheelon the Midway after the Fair had opened.His wheel, no longer “Ferris’ Folly”, stolethe show.It stood 264 feet high. It carried 36 carseach as big as a trolley — each held 60 pas¬sengers for a grand total of 2,160 riders onthe wheel at once. The fair admitted about300,000 people a day, and most of them rodethe Ferris Wheel.When the fair was over, planners arguedabout what to do with the City White, buttheir problems were solved one cold night inJanuary when the entire thing caught fire.Only a few exhibits were saved. One, theFine Arts Building, made of brick, was re¬constructed nearby as the Museum ofScience and Industry.The wealthy Wrigley family bought theNorway Building and moved it to the shoresof Lake Geneva, as did the Chandler familywith the Ceylon Court. Japanese Tea-Houses remained on Wooded Island until the30’s, while the Nina, Pinta and the SantaMaria (replicas from Spain) slowly rottedaway in the yacht harbor at Jackson Park.That large gold statue in Jackson Park isLady Columbia, who used to stand at thenorth end of the lagoon by the ExpositionAdministration Building.After the fire, all Jackson Park and the Midway stood in a dismal mess until 1901,when the city bulldozed it all over with anew layer of topsoil.With the end of the Exposition, HydePark’s boom economy immediately col¬lapsed, while at the same time the nationslipped into a major depression. The hastilybuilt flats in Woodlawn were for the mostpart abandoned throughout the 90’s. HydePark resumed its sleepy, quiet demeanor.The neighborhood could have died a natu¬ral death then, as did so many in Chicago, ifnot for a development that had been largelyignored amid the fanfare of the Exposition.That is, the University.The American Baptist Education Societyhad long been considering a university toserve the western U.S., and they wanted it inor near a city. Chicago was west of the Hud¬son, and the financial, commercial, and cul¬tural center of the country. All the Baptistsneeded was some land in or around Chicago,and some cash.Meanwhile the oil magnate John D. Rock¬efeller was looking for philanthropic ways toprotect his earnings. He was considering en¬dowing a college, when the Baptist ladersGoodspeed, Harper, and Gates got a hold ofhim with their idea for a full university.After some persuasion he agreed to put upsix hundred thousand if they would put up amillion, which they quickly did.At the same time Marshall Field, whoowned twenty acres of swampland in HydePark, offered to give the University half ifthey would buy the other half. The Universi¬ty had a home.The first students attended their firstclasses one week before the dedication ofthe fair, in 1892. The University spared noexpense to get the best faculty, and its repu¬tation soon spread before it.The school brought Hyde Park a stablepopulation of faculty, students, and mainte¬nance workers, while attracting talent andmoney from around the world. This com¬pleted Paul Cornell’s vision, and broughtHyde Park to the beginning of the twentiethcentury.The Chicago Maroon, Friday, September 26, 1980 13O(utsotuditoL‘Tifrvt 0LM4 04 Ae//l&s/u4<4#4 tfiusj.ERLANGERCla-u$i<- JS95wtitit ncvr ciasstc tntftixtx tins 100%puttivtoy „ ^tiaristrvfya^ttincti^prnfui-t^ ufuvmf^imalfttilkWtuxa4j) the dassic aii natunx vu/rafenti frftw&fryrTwtotiStkc4. xtrtot jorcttt unusually wto* iftirnatitw_ r a subtle xceni purr yeast 4*4 cnptd&tis **co*uwnu, ifpo4 fieri 0* absct utt finest w W*« *CONTENTS 12 f-l OZ * BEERc 1980 Jos Schlitz Brewing Company Milwaukee WlSURVIVINGin the Urban JungleIt never occurred to me as I left my dormone night last February that walking to afriend’s place at 7 p.m. would be a risky situ¬ation. Besides, I never thought I would bemugged.Yet as I turned the corner of 54th St. andEllis Ave. that night and saw a suspiciouslooking man ahead of me, I knew my luckhad about run out. After I crossed the street,the man followed me, pulled out a gun, anddemanded my wallet and jewelry. He thenordered me to walk down a dark, desertedstreet — 54th Place — but luckily, at thatmoment, a car approached us, scaring awaymy assailant and saving myself from poss¬ibly being raped or something worse.The incident just described really hap¬pened and is not so uncommon in HydePark. Although the area’s crime rate isviewed by some as “the lowest in Chicago,”the facts are well known to any Universitystudent: muggers and rapists are as much apart of Hyde Park as the gargoyles on top ofCobb Hall.Unfortunately, the victims of a largenumber of crimes are University students,many of whom have never been exposed tobig city life before. Though many crimesoccur in particularly deserted sections ofthe neighborhood, they remain for the mostpart unpredictable. Moreover, the targets ofthese assaults are even less predictable;males, females, blacks, whites are all vul¬nerable.Campus activities and city events providea much needed diversion from studying andsuch activities should not be avoided be¬cause of students’ fears about crime. Thechances of becoming the next crime victimcan be greatly reduced by using commonsense and by following a few simple rules.Also, transportation and safety servicesprovided by the University and campus po¬lice are intended to benefit students andshould therefore be used.Here are some safety precautions and ser¬vices that students should be aware of:The Minibus Service Running from 6 pmto 1 am everyday, the minibuses are Univer¬sity-owned and provide free night-timetransportation to all dormitories and manyUniversity buildings. The buses follow fourroutes and leave from Regenstein on thehour and half-hour. Route maps can bepicked up at the Bookstore, Reynolds Club,the Bursar’s Office, the Student ActivitiesOffice, and many other places on campus.Besides these buses, the University runsthree bus routes in the morning and eveningwhich students must purchase tickets for.These buses run through Hyde Park anddown to South Shore. Tickets and routemaps are available at the locations listedabove.Finally, the University runs a ShorelandShuttle. Umbrella Coverage The University willhave a car follow a student walking to anylocation in the campus area. Students needonly call campus security, either from awhite security phone, or at 753-2211. Theonly restriction is that students must be sureto walk the right way down one-waystreets.University Emergency Phones Thewhite phones located around campus areemergency phones directly connected to theUniversity police. Between 56th St. and 60thSt., and Cottage Grove and the I.C. tracks,there is one on every corner, as well asmany other locations north of 56th St., andeast of the I.C. tracks. If you are beingchased, just picking up the phone and notspeaking will alert security to send a car tothe area, usually in less than one minute. Astudent who sees suspicious persons or signsof a crime occurring should also pick up thenearest white phone. The phones can also beused to contact security if someone is ill orinjured and needs to be taken to the hospital,or for non-emergency situations, such as getting into a locked University building.Whistles Students should always carryand use police whistles to alert the policeand nearby residents to trouble. You shouldalways blow your whistle if you see a crimeoccurring. If you hear whistles blowing,blow your own whistle, or if you are near aphone, call 911 or University security at753-2211, or pick up a white security phone.Whistles are sold at Reynolds Club and atlocal banks.Walking patterns Use your commonsense here — stay out of alleyways and de¬serted areas at night, and walk in groups atnight if it is possible. The lakefront is nice,but try to avoid it after dark, especiallyafter the park closes at 10 pm. As it getslater in the year, fewer people use the lake-front, and therefore it becomes more dan¬gerous, so keep this in mind.South of 60th St. University security is vir¬tually non-existent. If you must go downthere after dark, driving is the best way,walking in groups the next best. Tai SamYon is a very good and very popular Chinese restaurant on 63rd St., but walking there,even in a group, is not a good idea afterdark.Transportation There are three means ofpublic transportation between Hyde Parkand downtown: the Illinois Central (I.C.)commuter trains, the elevated trains (theEl), and city buses.Of the three, the I.C. is the safest, thequickest, and the most expensive. The twostations nearest campus are at 57th St. and59th St. Because the 59th St. station is a stopfor both local and express trains, while the57th St. station is served only by local trains,you are likely to have a shorter wait for atrain at the 59th St. station. However, thatstation was the site of three rapes last year,and may not be as safe as the 57th St. sta¬tion. Apart from its cost ($1.15 one-waydowntown), another disadvantage to theI.C. is that it goes no further north than Ran¬dolph St. in the Loop; if you want to go up tothe North Side, you will have to pay again totake a city bus or the El.The El is the least safe way to get in andout of Hyde Park. Two El lines serve theSouth Side — the Jackson Park-Howard lineand the Lake-Dan Ryan line. The JacksonPark-Howard line is the closest to campus;its nearest stop is on Garfield Avenue abouta mile west of campus. The Lake-Dan Ryantrain stops at Garfield and the Dan RyanExpressway, several miles farther west onGarfield Ave. To reach either station, takethe 55th St./Garfield bus — either stop issafe to walk to. Two precautions can in¬crease your safety while taking the El; donot travel alone, particularly at night, and,when possible, take the Dan Ryan train in¬stead of the Jackson Park-Howard Whenreluming from the city on either line, makeabsolutely sure that you are on a “B” train,otherwise you will overshoot your stop. Thecost of a trip downtown on the El is 70 cents -60 cents for the fare and 10 cents for atransfer.City buses are relatively safe and cheap,if you have time to wait for them. The mostconvenient bus to take downtown is the Jef¬frey Express, which provides non-stop ser¬vice between the Hyde Park-South Shorearea and downtown.Apartment security Doors and windowsshould be locked at all times, especiallyback doors, which are sometimes left openfor ventilation. There have been incidentswhere residents have been raped or robbedinside their apartments because of unlockeddoors or windows. When entering yourapartment, have your keys in hand to avoidunnecessary loitering outside.One last word — have fun exploring Chi¬cago ... but remember to do it with cau¬tion.

Sooner or lateryou’ll find yourself with a problem or ques¬tion that demands the attention of a Univer¬sity administrator. Whether it’s a computermistake on your registration form, a re¬quest to leave the housing system, an ideafor an individualized major, a complaintabout an unfair grade, or a plea for funds foryour student group, something will driveyou to seek the help of a member of theUniversity’s bureaucracy. We can’t solveyour problems, but we can give you an in¬troduction to some of the administratorsand officials who deal most directly withstudent affairs:Hanna Holborn Gray, President of theUniversity You’ll get your chance todisco dance with Gray this fall at her annualbash in Ida Noyes Hall, and you may catch aglimpse of her at a few Orientation func¬tions, but you’re not likely to see her againsoon. Running a famous university is a time-consuming job, and so she has little time forstudent affairs, except those whichare so important only she can deal withthem. To see President Gray, you must firstspeak to F. Gregory Campbell, her specialassistant, who will usually refer you tosomebody else. Campbell also coordinatesGray’s calendar, so you must tell him far inadvance about any functions at which youdesire a Presidential presence.Charles O’Connell, Dean of Students inthe University Virtually every decisionconcerning student life passes through hisoffice, from admissions to financial aid tohousing to disciplinary action, even thoughO’Connell may not have first or final say inthese decisions. His office is also responsi¬ble for overseeing student activities. AField Guideto UniversityBureaucratsBecause O’Connell has so many respon¬sibilities and is sought by many people, andyour odds of reaching him about a trivialmatter are slim. O’Connell is an associateprofessor in the Humanities Collegiate Divi¬sion.Jonathan Z. Smith, Dean of theCollege His middle name is Zittell, and hecoordinates undergraduate academic pro¬grams at the faculty level. Students aren’tlikely to talk to him about their particularacademic plans, but he is accessible — bothas a dean and as a teacher of religion — tostudents with general questions and con¬cerns about their education.Lorna Straus, Dean of Students in theCollege Straus’s office deals withacademic problems affectingundergraduates. Straus can help you withextraordinary registration problems andcurricular questions your advisor can’tanswer. If you’re transferring or droppingout, she’ll likely meet with you to see if shecan change your mind. Her office also deter- List and academic probation, and offerssuggestions to student organizations. Strausis a popular biology teacher.Edward Turkington, Director of Stu¬dent Housing Want to change rooms withsomeone in another dorm? Get out of yourmeal plan? Paint flourescent orangeelephants on the wall of your room? This isthe man you’ll have to see. You’ll also get tosee him if you are caught blowing up toiletsor at some other harmless dormitory prank.Turkington administers the residentialhousing system, and in addition to the tasksdescribed above, his office also helps ar¬range interhouse social programs.Paul Ausick, Assistant Dean ofStudents Ausick is O’Connell’s assistantand the man you’ll probably be referred toin your quest to see the Dean of Students.Ausick can provide assistance in amultitude of areas, particularly to studentsand student groups snarled in the Universi¬ty’s red tape. Ausick is also one of several“duty deans” on call to aid students who areattacked or who get in trouble with thepolice.Jonathan Kleibard, Vice President forCommunity Affairs Kleinbard's job is tooversee the operation of the University’ssecurity force and to serve as the Universi¬ty’s liason to community groups andbusinesses. He’s the man you should talk toabout problems with the campus securityforce, and he’s also one to whom requests tosee Gray are often referred. The Universityhas a long history of playing an active rolein Hyde Park and nearby communities,dealing with housing, crime, urban renewal,and the like; much of this activity is coor¬dinated by the Community Affairs office. Riley Davis, Director of Student Ac¬tivities Davis runs the Student ActivitiesOffice (SAO), which provides support ser¬vices to student groups. Davis and hisassistants (Irene Conley, Libby Morse, andGunta Irbe) take care of room reservations,and equipment and can give advice on star¬ting new groups and planning activities forexisting ones. The SAO also sponsors its ownactivities from time to time.Dan Hall, Dean of Admissions and Aidin the College Financial aid is an essen¬tial part of life for many students thesedays, and Hall’s office has the sometimesunpleasant job of telling students how much— or how little — money they’ll have to liveon. All the different aid programs forundergraduates — from scholarships andgovernment grants, to loans, and workstudy — are administered through theFinancial Aid office. Hall is new here thisfall, a transfer from Northwestern Universi¬ty, where he was Director of Financial Aid.Jeff Elton, Student Government Presi¬dent Elton is the first two-term StudentGovernment president in recent Universityhistory, and is familiar with the intricaciesof both the administration and studentorganizations. He’s the person to go to withquestions about student government ser¬vices like refrigerator rental, the housingreferral list, the student food co-op, and fun¬ding for student groups.Stephanie Browder, Student Om¬budsman Browder, a student, can helpyou figure out who in the administration youshould go to with a particular problem orquestion — if you see her before you startknocking on administrators' doors, you maysave a lot of time. Browder is also the per¬son to go to when you're hopelessly tied up inred tape, or when you feel that you’ve beengiven the shaft by administrators, pro¬fessors, or others around the University.Her office is on the second floor of Reynoldsciub. :Saturday, October 4,10:00 a.m.Ida Noyes Parking Lot(in case of rain: Ida Noyes Gym)Furnished with Hyde Park’s finestrecycled merchandiseThe Chicago Maroon, Friday, September 26, 1980 19LAWYER REPRESENTING LABOR UNIONAND COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY NEEDSPART-TIME SECRETARY, 5 HOURS A DAY.5 DAYS A WEEK; MINIMUM SKILLS RE¬QUIRED.

The foliowing is Nicho¬las's preliminary text for the address.The Aims of Education address has pre¬viously been delivered in Mandel Hall. Thatbuilding is now being renovated and en¬larged. I think it will be a great delight toaudiences, performers, and professorswhen it is finished, but in the meantime,standing before you in Rockefeller Chapeladds, by accident, the exaltation of the pul¬pit to my very mortal words.An aim of education? Some aims of educa¬tion? No. The aims of education. I do feel theneed for divine guidance.What more can I tell you about the aims ofeducation? Someone has no doubt alreadyleft you with the impression that we, at TheUniversity of Chicago, know what educationreally is. And, you have been told, you po¬ssess the intellectual capacities to benefitfrom it — capacities, you are subtly remind¬ed, manifest in your choice of university.Am I now to tell you why you are here? Ifany of your parents thought you did not al¬ready know what the aims of your educationare, it might cause them serious misgivings.They must now surely be aware that thereare cheaper, safer, more comfortable waysof finding out what you are doing than at¬tending The University of Chicago.I think you know why you are here, andthe reasons have to do primarily with intel¬lectual aspirations you have for yourselves.Those are good and proper reasons, and 1will trust you not to give them up no matterhow you are challenged, no matter how yourmotives are questioned by your parents, byyour classmates, or — w'orst of all — byyourselves.It is not a secret that members of the fac¬ulty of this university are often in disagree¬ment with one another about everythingfrom the uses of Vitamin C to the interpreta¬tion of the Quran. Although all of us havescholarly specialties and do not often pro¬nounce on one another’s fields, we all havein common a strong professional interest ineducation so anyone’s statement about theaims of education is inevitably subject todispute. You will have plenty of opportuni¬ties to participate in this controversy;whether you need to begin doing so while you are in the midst of placement examina¬tions and trying to learn the names of thepeople in your house is a legitimate ques¬tion. I can think of at least one justificationfor situating this occasion so early in youracademic careers.Although I have every reason for feelingconfident in you, I know that some of youwill drop out. A few will leave forever;others will take off a year along the way toreconsider the direction of your work andlives. If you do so, you will probably feel thatyou have made the right decision, but 1 alsoexpect you to find that being out of schooland away from the University is not as grat¬ifying as you had expected it to be. I think Ican rely on a nagging inward discontent totrouble you because I think I can rely on TheCollege to spoil the world for you, if only justa little. I set myself the task of initiating thatdiscontent so that, even if you drop out to¬morrow, you will never be perfectly freefrom it.Although all of us have scholarlyspecialties and do not often pro¬nounce on one another’s fields, weall have in common a strong pro¬fessional interest in education.As much as I would like to, 1 will not beable to settle the aims of education tonight.It is an honor simply to be asked to inaugu¬rate the discussion of these central issues inyour collegiate life. But I hope that I mayactivate the germ of a troublesome thoughtyou probably already have — a seed ofdoubt that will ruin some piece of under¬standing about the universe you have hither¬to been willing to regard as self-evident. Iam not trying to impart any particularknowledge or to persuade you of any partic¬ular opinion. But I would like to help upsetsome way of thinking that has alwaysseemed to you obvious and unambiguous, soas to initiate an infection of critical scrutinyfrom which you may never recover.If 1 am successful, then you will be perpet¬ ually troubled by a faint mental itch thatwill remind you continuously that nothing isas simple as it is made out to be, and theremust always be a better way of thinkingabout it. If I am not successful, you shouldnot consider yourself immune; one of mymore able colleagues will inoculate you withthe virus and you too will experience life¬long discomfort whenever you encountersettled ideas. As a medium for conveyingthis mental disquiet to you, I shall say some¬thing about the immodest topics of humannature and individualism.IAnthropology, as few of you will come toknow in detail this year, is my "discipline.”"Discipline” is an unusual word: it may beused, in different contexts, to refer to themethod, the content, and the aims of educa¬tion.With respect to method, discipline impliesrigor and orderliness. You can and do learnmany things on your own; the advantage ofbeing taught lies in the teacher's ability tolead you in a systematic progression by or¬ganizing a syllabus and conducting classesin a disciplined way. From this meaning,the sense of its use in such expressions as"The University Disciplinary Committee”may be deduced — but that is only a paren¬thetical observation; I imagine that none ofyou will have any occasion to be concernedwith that manifestation of University disci¬pline.With respect to the content of education,discipline refers to the various fields ofstudy or subjects that are taught in a univer¬sity. Since disciplines in this sense areusually institutionalized in departmental fa¬culties, we are often inclined to think ofthem as solid and enduring bodies of knowl¬edge that are imparted more or less ade¬quately and reliably by conscientious in¬structors. One of the aims of education onmy list is to substitute for this "glacial”image of the discipline an "oceanic” one:far from being ponderous, frozen, and grind¬ing inexorably forward at an infinitesimallyslow rate, the fields of study in the Univesityare fluid, they lap gently on some shoreswhile pounding high over others, they aresusceptible to the tidal pull of fashions, butthey may nevertheless bear skillful naviga¬tors in a consistent direction. Thus, at thisUniversity, you cannot expect to enter intoyour notebooks any eternal truths, but onlythe best and most recent provisional ap¬proximations arrived at and reported to youby the provisional approximators them¬selves.As an aim of education, however, a disci¬pline can give you something in which per¬manent confidence can be vested: this is thehabit of mind or of analytical thinking thatis commonly referred to as "disciplined .”The mental discipline necessary to deal withthe heterogeneous and novel problems weperpetually inflict upon ourselves throughcontinuous enquiry will be of more enduringvalue than most of the substance you learnin your courses. This form of discipline canbe acquired in any of the undergraduateprograms available at this University. Inmentioning that my discipline is anthropolo¬gy, I do not mean to claim any special intel¬lectual privilege for it. But I want to drawyour attention to the particular, more or lessdistinctive method of enquiry that anthropo¬logists use.I am not an anthropologist of the stonesand bones persuasion. I am what is called asocial or cultural anthropologist. My col¬leagues in prehistory study human beingsby examining the residues they leave be¬hind, and my colleagues in physical anthro¬pology’ study human beings through the im¬pressions they make of themselves in theirflesh and bones. Social anthropologistsstudy human beings by studying peoplebeing human, that is. people living with oneanother, carrying out their mundane lives,making families and communities, having children and dying, and — most important— making all of these activities meaningfulto themselves.We refer to such study as "fieldwork,”which is a piece of jargon that means goingand living with a group of people for a suffi¬ciently long time and on terms of sufficientintimacy to be confident that we know howthey do most of the ordinary and extraordin¬ary things they do and how- they make senseof those things. Since, for the most part, wehave lived all our lives this way, anthropolo¬gical "fieldwork” sounds like the simplestand most obvious method of enquiry con¬ceivable.Needless to say, there is a catch: The peo¬ple whom we have lived with all of our livesand the meanings we have learned to attachto their pattern of life seem so perfectly"natural” that we find nothing much to en¬quire about. Therefore, a rule of thumb inprofessional anthropological training is thatthe novice must undertake a prolongedperiod of fieldwork in a society that is dif¬ferent from his or her own, a society inwhich the pattern of meanings is quite unfa¬miliar and where one’s "common sense”understandings prove to be of little value.I think I can rely on The College tospoil the world for you, if only just alittle.People in such societies do not usuallyspeak English, so the process of learninghow they live their lives and constitute theuniverse for themselves often begins bylearning to speak and think in their lan¬guage. Those of you who were not born inthe United States and whose native lan¬guage is not English will have had some ex¬perience in such an initiation, although youhave most likely not previously regarded itas anything as fancy as a "method.”All of you will learn something aboutvarious methods of the social sciences thisyear, and you will soon know that there aremany more easily replicated procedures forgaining grounded knowledge than thoseused by social anthropologists. But anthro¬pology has something special to contributeand those of you who take "Self, Culture,and Society” — otherwise known by the an¬cient and apparently ineradicable name of"Soc. II” — will learn much more about itbefore the year is overIf "anthropology” does not evoke ar¬chaeology or human evolution, then it isusually the image of an inquisitive eccentricin a pith helmet and khaki walking shorts in¬terviewing near-naked people with otherpeoples' bones thrust through their noses.The people whom I work with mostly live invillages in India; many of them can readand write, and. literate or not, they are theinheritors of an ancient civilization that setsthe terms of their daily lives just as our civi¬lization does for us. Although many of thesepeople are, by our standards, very poor,they have aspirations and a knowledge ofthe world quite comparable to our own. Inother words, this is no isolated tribe in themountain fastnesses of New Guinea.IINevertheless, village life is decidedly li¬mited. Agriculture is the main source oflivelihood, and the alternatives mostly re¬quire life-shortening forms of physical exer¬tion. Education offers one of the few waysout of the grinding labor and perpetual inse¬curity of most village occupations. For thefortunate few who survive the examinationsystem and whose families can afford thecost of college, there is the prospect of a sal¬aried job with an income that does not de¬pend upon the weather.The hardships that a village family mustendure to obtain a higher education for a sonor daughter make your University of Chica¬go tuition look paltry. Under these condi¬tions, a blatantly careeerist attitude towardThe Chicago Maroon, Friday, September 26, 1980-23college education — which we look uponwith such disapproval in “Aims of Educa¬tion” addresses — is at least intelligible andperhaps even forgivable. A young man witha penchant for literature but high examina¬tion scores in math and science will enroll ina scientific curriculum. Not only is a sciencedegree more valuable on the job market, butthere is also a chance at engineering ormedicine, which are lucrative as well asprestigious occupations.Is all of this beginning to sound a little fa¬miliar? Are you thinking of what we oftenrefer to by the rather vague expression“family pressure”? Your situation and thatof a student just beginning work at a univer¬sity in India are not at all alike. As soon aswe pursue the comparison in an anthropolo¬gical way, from within each social and cul¬tural setting, the appearance of similarityevaporates.In America, it is a premise of higher edu¬cation that each student must choose forherself or himself what course of study tofollow'. It is not accidental that the years oflife normally marked out for college encom¬pass the time when a person attains his orher “majority” — a quaint expression forofficial adulthood, which is also sometimescalled “the age of discretion,” that is, theage at which one must begin making inde¬pendent decisions and bearing full responsi¬bility for them.Of course, most of you have been makingindependent decisions for a long time al¬ready, and most of you chose The Universityof Chicago in an explicit or implicit under¬standing with your parents and othermembers of your families that “the choiceis yours.” Nevertheless, you may feel thatyou are carrying a burden of expectationsfrom your family, and if you do not go on tolaw school or divinity school or whatever,you have thwarted those expectations. Butin the end, it is you alone who must make thedecision about what to study and what workto pursue in life because, as we are fond ofsaying, “it is you and nobody else who isgoing to have to live with it.”The situation of an Indian student couldnot be more different. He must approach al¬ternatives of curriculum and career withthe knowledge that everyone in his family isgoing to have to live with those choices forthe rest of their lives. In the case of a poorfamily staking everything on the educationof the brightest son, they may expect thelion’s share of their future income to derivefrom his earnings. For a boy who mighthave been admitted to an engineering col¬lege to study art instead would be an act ofshameless selfishness, a betrayal of the peo¬ple who cared for him when he was a help¬less infant, of his brothers and sisters, andof his own descendants. Thus, it is not sur¬prising that the father, and perhaps a fa¬ther’s brother or other senior relative, of anew student in India would accompany himon his first visits to the university. And if anofficial asks a question, it is someone of theolder generation who answers it, while thestudent sits silent. After all, it is not his deci¬sion — it is hardly even his education. He isfirst and foremost a vehicle for his family.We are tempted to think of this as a tem¬porary state of affairs. If India were not sopoor and if financial insecurity were not aconstant threat to families, there would bemore freedom of choice for students. Butthis is a very American way of looking at thematter. There is a good deal of evidence thateconomic well-being strengthens ratherthan weakening the family system I havebeen talking about. In general, the better offa family is, the more comprehensive are itscollective decisions. The supposition thateconomic development will make Indiamore like America is one of those ethnocen¬tric mistakes that have misguided the de¬signers of our foreign policy since the end ofihe Second World War.24-The Chicago Maroon, Friday, September IIIWe will need to carry our anthropologicalcomparison a bit further to understand whyotherwise intelligent Americans might per¬sist in making so fundamental an error. Sofar, I have talked about the situation of malestudents in India. Now I must tell you aboutthe women. I am not eager to open up thissubject because I fear it may lead to stillmore misunderstanding of India. So I begyou to hear out the whole matter beforejudging it.Outside the very small minority of highlyeducated and prosperous families, girls aresent to universities to improve their mar¬riage prospects. A high-ranking civil ser¬vant or a doctor — the kind of person youwould like your son to be — must have aB.A. or M.A. for a wife. If this sound to youlike a mockery of the aims of education, Iwould ask you to consider to what extent ed¬ucation in our own society is pursued withthe objective of securing a desirable stan¬dard of living. An uneducated wife in India,on the average, will wind up married in apoorer family and engaged in an unendinground of mostly menial domestic toil. Inso¬far as we seek education in order to avoiddreary, mindless labor, we cannot hold our¬selves superior to those Indian families whohope that higher education will obtain moreagreeable lives for their daughters.Whether or not they have jobs outside thehome, marriage seems to be the inevitablefate of women in India. A double standardthat American women recognize as familiarseems to be at work. But, here again, I musturge extreme caution; we have alreadyseen how' deceptive the surface appearanceof familiarity may be. Recall that the per¬sonal autonomy we expect to exercise inmaking the decisions about our life’s workdoes not exist for Indian males. Consider toothat the Prime Minister of India is a woman,and that women have had a few of the mostimportant positions in Indian public lifeever since that country gained its indepen¬dence in 1947.There is a double standard for the sexes inIndia, but it is not the same as the doublestandard in this country and needs to be un¬derstood separately. If you ask youngwomen in an Indian university whether ornot they want to get married, you will findthat their wishes pretty much correspond tothe general expectation, and that the pros¬pect of remaining either single or childlessis appalling to most of them.Americans begin learning to bealone in the first months of life.Where we are accustomed to hear“I” and “my” in America, “we”and “our” are more commonlyheard in India.IVIt is on the subject of marriage itself thatthe largest differences between Americanstudents and their Indian counterparts openup most distinctly. A newly married couplein India is not expected to break out and setup housekeeping on its own; rather, it is au¬tomatically and without question included inthe family of the groom’s father. If thegroom has elder brothers, they will havebeen married earlier and their wives andchildren are also part of the same family.These families go on adding members bymarriage and birth and may become quitelarge before it is considered necessary tobreak them up into smaller componentsbased on single married couples.It is almost as difficult in India to findyoung men who do not wish to take theirbrides into their father’s houses as it is inthis country to find young people who wouldprefer to live with their parents after mar¬riage. Young women, who must normally26, 1980 change families when they are married, fre¬quently these days express a preference forearly separation from the parental family,but even so they are often quite ambivalentabout such a split: the larger family offersthem advantages that may outweigh eventhe vexation of an imperious mother-in-law.I mention these facts about Indian familiesnot because I think you need to know them,but to illustrate the naturalness that life andwork in large collectivities seems to possessthere, which is quite comparable to the nat¬uralness we attribute to the wish to be onone’s own.One of the foundation stones on which theIndian family rests is what we call in En¬glish “the arranged marriage,” in whichspouses are selected by parents and otherclose relatives. The old ideal that bride andgroom have their first glimpse of one an¬other only on their marriage day is occa¬sionally violated in modernist circles, butmost decisions about marriages are stilltaken by people other than those who will bemarried to one another. Whatever we maythink about the merits of the joint familysystem, Americans cannot help bridling at.the idea of someone else selecting a spousefor them. Love, mutual caring, and personalcommitment are indispensible precondi¬tions to marriage from our point of view,and — far from establishing their love in ad-The supposition that economic de¬velopment will make India morelike America is one of those ethno¬centric mistakes that have mis¬guided the designers of our foreignpolicy since the end of the SecondWorld War.vance — Indians commonly require thatyoung people not even know' one another be¬fore they are married.Students from India in the United Stateshave been questioned so often and so incre¬dulously about arranged marriages thatmany of them have developed a stock ofready answers about respecting theirparents, trusting their judgment in mattersof such far-reaching consequences, and soon. What they might well say, but do not, isthat if we Americans selected our spousesas carefully as we select our major appli¬ances, with an eye to the future as well asthe present, we might lead happier lives.In India, I have often found myself on theopposite end of questions about marriageand the family? Why, in America, is the di¬vorce rate so high? Is divorce not a terriblething for children? Truthful answers tothese questions must acknowledge that ro¬mantic love is seldom the basis for life-longattachment, and when it exhausts itself, ifthere is not something firm beneath it, afamily is destroyed. Injured adult lives aresomewhat easier to heal than those of chil¬dren swept in the wake of divorce. But theidea that someone else might make a betterjudge than onesself about one’s own spouseis unthinkable. Our system of marriage ar¬rangement is based on a conception of indi¬vidual liberty that is fundamental to our en¬tire society.Having one’s marriage arranged by puta¬tively wise elders is, unfortunately, also noguarantee against a mismatch. The divorcerate among Hindus is very low in part be¬cause most of them think that there is no not isolated, together with their children,within the four walls of an individual dwell¬ing. If husband and wife quarrel, whichmost of them do often enough, there areother people nearby to console each of themand to show their children love during theirparents’ temporary neglect.In fact, people in India most often feel welland happy when they are going about theirdaily lives and activities surrounded by allof their closest relatives, with children con¬stantly underfoot, noisy and rarely repri¬manded, and brothers’ wives to cook andserve food to ten or twelve people at a sit¬ting. We may take delight in such groups atan occasional family get-together, but mostof us would find it stifling to live this way allthe time.In the course of my own life and work inlarge Indian families I have sometimesbeen seized by the almost panicked feelingthat I had to get out for a while, to havesome peace and quiet. Although my Indianfriends have generally respected my need tobe alone, it is quite difficult for them to un¬derstand. The solace we seek in privacythey are accustomed to find in the midst ofother people.The roots of the differences between us goback a long way into the history of the twosocieties as well as into the earliest experi¬ences in life of contemporary Americansand Indians. If two or three centuries ofAmerican individualism make a topic ofstaggering proportions, then two or threemillenia of the history of Indian collectivismmake an awesome one. Although I cannottouch such histories now, a few general ob¬servations about growing up in America andIndia will carry my anthropological com¬parison one last step.VAmericans begin learning to be alone inthe first months of life, sleeping in their ownbeds in their own rooms, and amusing them¬selves as far as possible. The early years oflife are marked by several momentous“firsts”: the first smile of recognition, thefirst tooth, the first solid food, the first un¬supported step, the first word, the first indi¬cation that the diaper can be done awaywith, the first dressing of onesself, and soon. We celebrate these milestones on thecourse toward individual autonomy asachievements of importance, and no matterwhat Dr. Spock says, each one is typicallyrichly rewarded as a sign of developmentalprogress. Failure to continue the regularprocess of detachment from dependency onthe parents is a foreboding of serious dis¬order. We have all been taught, right fromthe beginning of our lives, that good thingsare to be had for being first and for doing iton our own long before we entered schooland the other environments in which compe¬tition for achievement is consciously spon¬sored.Infancy in India is quite a different mat¬ter. A child is with its mother constantly,astride her hip while she works, cuddled toher bosom while she sleeps. Cribs with barson the sides are considered repulsive andplaypens useless. If the mother needs to puther child down for a time, there is usuallysomeone else more than happy to pick it up.The child is given its first solid food in a cer¬emony at about the sixth month, after thefirst teeth have erupted, but this is not aweaning ritual; mothers often continue tonurse their children until they are two yearsold. Of course, such children must also eatThe discovery of our own culture is one of the most valuable gifts of aneducation; only after making this discovery is it possible to understandthat we are as we are not because it is eternaly ordained by God or na¬ture.such thing as Hindu divorce, although theyare well aware that Muslims and Christianspractice it, and some know that the modernlaw courts can do it for anyone. However,the stability of most marriages in India, re¬gardless of religion, is protected by a host ofother social arrangments, chief amongwhich is that individual married couples are some solid food, but that is not considered areason to deny either mother or child thesatisfaction of nursing. Infante learn to walkwith support and encouragement from theirmothers and older brothers and issters, butjust because they can walk does not neces¬sarily mean that they should. When the bur¬den of a growing child gets too much fof the... you will be troubled by a faint mental itch that will remind you thatnothing is as simple as it is made out to be.mother, a big sister gets the privilege of car¬rying it around while she plays. Toilet train¬ing is carried out with little self-conscious¬ness and none of the ornate praising andshaming that accompany this traumaticpassage in our society; the child learnswhen it learns, and rarely can anyone saywhat that age might be, for it is not a mo¬mentous event. If any precocity is especial¬ly rewarded, it is in smiling, laughing, andshowing affection.The practice of good scholarshipand science requires continuousself-critical attention, but not nec¬essarily doubts about one’s self.'There are, of couse, darker moments intypical Indian childhoods that I have saidnothing about, and childhood in America ismore than just a forced march through thestages of development. I have tried simplyto lay out some of the principal differencesin hopes that they may help us understandthat while we Americans might find that theappeal of a large, warm, embracing humancollectivity wained rather quickly, there arepeople in the world who would prefer not tolive in any other way.Most Americans are likely to think that itis “perfectly natural’’ to be excited andhappy when a child takes its first step, re¬cognizes the letters of the alphabet, or tiesits shoelaces. We think it is not a kindness to“baby” a child excessively. It needs to be¬come an independent and autonomous indi¬vidual if it is going to make a place for itselfin the world. Love and work — which weoften regard as the two most important con¬stituents of a life — must both be found out¬side the family in which one is raised, andone must walk on his own two feet to findthem. If a person fails at one or the other, heor she can go home for a while to recuperateand make a fresh start, but the start must bemade elsewhere, “on your own,” as wesay.VIWhere we are accustomed to hear “I” and“my” in America, “we” and “our” aremore commonly heard in India. It mayseem paradoxical to you, but I think theyoung Marx glimpsed the fact that whenthere is less stress on individual achieve¬ment and more shared responsibility, thereis much more scope for each person to bejust him- or herself. While the appeal of aMuch about ourselves that we con-side “perfectly natural” is in fact“perfectly cultural.”more socialized humanity is undeniable, wemust nevertheless acknowledge that indi¬vidualism, which we nurture so carefullyfrom the earliest days of life, has rewardedus splendidly in the arts, in scientific accom¬plishments, a high standard of scholarship,and unprecedented material welfare. But,there are no unmixed blessings, and, if I slipinto my Indian disguise for a moment, Iwould be obliged to say that it has taken atoll in our personal lives, in our capacity fordelight in living and working with other peo¬ple. Our commonweal is very individualisticand our hell, in Sartre’s vision at least, isother people.Consider the particular areas of achieve¬ment that interest us most — science andscholarship — which are quite obviously col¬lective products. Much of what we euphe¬mistically call the ‘literature” of the socialsciences consists of critical refinementswrought by one person on the work of an¬other. There would be no “fields” ofChaucer studies or Balkan history as weknow them if there were not groups of schol¬ars, each of whom has a competing interpre¬tation of the subject. The discovery of thestructure of the DNA molecule is the mostbaldly told story of “collaboration” — an¬other euphemism — in the modern laborato¬ry sciences. I call it collaboration because of the interdependence of the several scientificskills involved, not because of the predatoryspirit in which some outstanding scientistsentered it.The practice of good scholarship andscience requires continuous self-critical at¬tention, but not necesaarily doubts aboutone’s self. There is nothing in human naturethat requires us to feel driven to a competi¬tive demonstration of personal worth. Al¬though the wellsprings of individual curiosi¬ty are somewhat murky, the ceaseless questfor the truth that curiosity impels is morethan sufficient to carry forward original en¬quiry, whether we do it individually or col¬lectively.Very occasionally, important work maybe motivated by a sense of righeous outrageprovoked by some eminence propoundingarrant nonsense. But, in the more usualcase, there is a great self-contained rewardin thinking some new thought, discoveringsomething that no one ever knew before, or— equally important — finding meaning inwhat had previously been unintelligible, orinterpreting what had hitherto been myste¬rious.The most prevalent modes of ourthought have been based on the ac¬ceptance of one’s self as the stan¬dard of normalcy, one’s religion asthe touchstone against which allelse is superstition, and one’s un¬derstanding of the universe as thescientific one. Such ways of think¬ing . . . shrivel the intellect.However, most of us are not so simplyconstituted; the intrinsic gratification oloriginal achievement is not quite enoughWe also want to be the first and the bestwhich, as we painfully learn, can only be accomplished individually, and — in one of tntironies of individualism — can only be recognized socially. The irony arises not onlyfrom the fact that successful individualismcan hardly exist without collective acknowl¬edgment, but also from the appalling lack olsatisfaction such acknowledgment providesthe individual once it is past. However, mypoint here is simply to call attention to thelimits of the inward sense of purpose in anindividualistic society.Few of us could very long tolerate the sub¬mergence of our selves entailed in a trulycollective pattern of life and work; we arecreative individuals, not parts of some ma¬chinery. That is the way we are culturallyput together, and that is the way we live andwork. It does no good to grieve over such asorry state of affairs, or to conjure up fanta¬sies of some grand socialist reeducation torestore our lost humanity. But it can help usgain a perspective on ourselves, and per¬haps even a sense of humor, if we occasion¬ally stand where we can look in and see our¬selves as others might. Afterall, who looksfunny depends on who is doing the looking.The discovery of our own culture is one ofthe most valuable gifts of an education; onlyafter making this discovery is it possible tounderstand that we are as we are not be¬cause it is entemally ordaind by God or na¬ture.“Human nature” is an expression we aretoo inclined to use. Behind it there is oftenan unconscious resistance to examining itscontents for fear that we will only find a stillgreater burden of personal responsibility.What I have tried to show you is that muchabout ourselves that we would like to acceptas “perfectly natural” is in fact “perfectlycultural.” Anthropologists have been sayingsomething like this for over a century now,and it may seem that there is little need forme to go on quite so long about it yet again.But the force of ethnocentrism seems irre¬pressible; in recent years, for example, anew group of “naturalists” has discoveredthat biology is really very American — it isour genes, it seems, that are “selfish.” Donot be surprised to find a justification for the The Blue Gargoyle Vegetarian Food Serviceannouncesits Fall quarter 1980 opening!^<• invite vou to join u- for lunch -tartin^ September 29th from 11:30 to 1:30Monday through Friday.

Such ways ofthinking, although they are still most usual,shrivel the intellect; they close out the ques¬tions that most need asking, they restrictthe horizons of our understanding, and —most dangerous of all — they degrade peo¬ple who are different from ourselves to lessthan fully human status, as we recently didto the Vietnamese, as the Kampucheans arenow doing to their non-Khmer peoples, asthe godless Soviets are doing to the MuslimAfghans, and as the Muslim Iranians aredoing to us.The people whom we have livedwith all our lives and the meaningswe have learned to attach to theirpattern of life seem so perfectly“natural” that we find nothing toinquire about.You cannot live in a perpetual turmoilabout what is right and wrong or correct orincorrect.

For three and ahalf quarters, the Maroons dominated agame that was marred by a total of fourteenturnovers and 175 yards in penalties. It wasnot until the Pioneers completed a despera¬tion ‘Hail Mary’ pass with only a minute andeleven seconds left in the game that Grinnellwent ahead for good. The game was high¬lighted by the Maroons’ outstanding defen¬sive showing, which consistently shut downthe Grinnell attack and did not allow a scoreuntil there were just under seven minutesleft to play.Chicago drew first blood late in the firstquarter. Taking the ball at their own 27, theMaroons bulled their way to the 45 yard linewith five consecutive running plays. Onthird and long, Grinnell defender Scott Suterinterfered with Maroon receiver Jeff Fore¬man, giving Chicago a first down on theGrinnell 41. On the next play, quarterbackBill Sanderson hit tight end Byron Trott on ahook pattern at the 26 yard line. Not arguingwith success, Chicago came back with thesame play, but this time Sanderson wentdeep to Foreman in the end zone as the Pio¬neers were rushing in to cover Trott. Fore¬man’s kick was good and the Maroons led7-0 with 1:04 left in the first period.The second quarter belonged to theMaroon defense. Sanderson, a freshmanwho was filling in for injured quarterbackDo Kim, had trouble finding his backs andreceivers, and the resulting turnovers keptthe Maroons in poor field position for mostof the quarter. Early in the quarter, onfourth down and inches, the Maroonsstopped Grinnell back Mark Kohlman as hetried to push his way through the middle ofthe line. Chicago’s only offensive threat ofthe period came on a jazzed up Sanderson-to-Foreman-to-Trott pass play that put theball on the Grinnell 18. The threat disap¬peared on the next play, however, whenSanderson fumbled on a pitchout while hewas being tackled and Grinnellrecovered. During the third quarter, Grinnell beganto get its running game on track, but theMaroon defenders were always able to comeup with the big plays when they had to. Latein the quarter, with the ball on the Chicago30, Grinnell quarterback Tom Hanseterfound an open receiver behind the Chicagocornerbacks. An excellent tackle at the goalline saved the touchdown but Grinnell hadthe ball on the one foot line, first andgoal.Hanseter’s sneak attempt on first downfailed to penetrate the tough Chicago line,♦and the Pioneers drew a five yard penaltyon the next play. On second down, the Grin¬nell tailback tried to sweep right, but Chi¬cago’s Jim Coy broke into the backfield anddropped him for a loss. Third down foundthe Pioneers eleven yards short of the goalline. Hanseter dropped back to pass, but theblitz was on, and Maroon linebackers MarkKosminskas and Jim Maranto forced anearly throw, which fell five yards awayfrom the nearest receiver. A Grinnell fieldgoal attempt on fourth down was wide to theright and the Maroons took over on theirown twenty.The Maroon offense was unable to get on-track at all during the second half. This waslargely due to the inexperience of the Chi¬cago backfield. With the exception of NickFillipo. who was playing with an injuredankle, none of the Maroon backs had everhandled the ball in a college game. Sanders¬on was 9 for 21 passing on the day, whichisn’t at all bad, but he also threw six inter¬ceptions. In addition, the Maroons lost 4 of 7fumbles. In all, Chicago committed fourteenturnovers (Foreman also had a pass inter¬cepted), a figure which would bury almostany team. Nonetheless, the ChicagoMaroons went into the fourth quarter lead¬ing Grinnell 7-0.The Pioneers finally got on the scoreboardmidway through the final period. The Grin¬nell drive began at their own four yard line,after the Grinnell punt returner decided tomake a fair catch at that point. On the nextplay Kohlman carried to the eleven. On sec¬ond down, the Pioneers threw the ball deepdown the left sidelines, incomplete. Then, onthird down and 3 to go, Grinnell sent their“To who? To Who?” That familiar high-pitched shout could be heard around StaggField once again last week. Barry DeSilvaand his University of Chicago soccer teamhad returned for their preseason soccercamp.The squad, coming off a disappointing4-6-1 campaign last year, began a daily 12-minute run and workouts twice a day onSeptember 15. They will continue the campuntil September 28. The 16 players havebeen working on intensive stretching and awide range of drills. DeSilva has beenstressing the development of staminathrough drills rather than running, and alsoemphasizing fatigue training to preservethe players’ fundamental skills when theybegin to tire during games.DeSilva will use a counterattacking gameplan, which means that the team will try tomaintain a strong defense while endeavori¬ng to strike quickly on offense. The scoringburden will once again fall upon sophomoreTodd Silber, who led the team in scoring lastseason, and junior Soo-Hyun Chin. Both playon the front line. At left wing, senior DeanCarpenter will most likely be the starter. Right wing remains a qustion mark becauseKim Hong vacated the slot when he graduat¬ed.The midfielders are a source of worry forDeSilva. Last year, he maintains, the mid¬fielders took about half the season to learnthe system before they began to play well to¬gether. However, the loss of three of lastyear’s freshmen, bringing to six the numberof freshmen lost over the last two years, hasresulted in DeSilva’s having to start over inthat area. Among the corps of halfback-hopefuls are senior co-captain Andy Satin,senior Zbig Banas, (the class elder states¬man), newcomers Todd Talishek, a junior,and sophomores Yoon Son, Andy Szpur, andDave Hyman.At fullback will be senior co-captain LouSegall and junior Cy Oggins (all-conferenceas a freshman). Oggins will probably stay inthe sweeper position he has held for twoyears, but the outside fullbacks presentmore question marks.Another source of worry is the goal¬keeper. DeSilva said last week, “Our fatedepends on goalkeeping. We can stay withany team if we have a goalkeeper.” The student body around the right side and forthe first time of the afternoon, a Grinnellrunner was past the Chicago linebackers.After the Pioneer tailback turned thecorner, it was open field all the way, 89yards for a touchdown. The PAT was goodand the score was tied, 7-7.Not to be outdone, Chicago fresman RogerMcCann returned the kickoff the length ofthe field to put the Maroons back on top,13-7. Grinnell took the Maroon kickoff attheir own 37 and got nowhere, punting afterthree plays. Chicago took the punt at their30, and on first down, Sanderson tried toforce a pass through three Pioneers to Fore¬man. The ball was batted enough times toconfuse a volleyball player before a Grinnelldefender came down with it. Once again, theChicago defense rose to the occasion, andthe Pioneers were unable to come up with afirst down in four attempts. The Maroonsgot the ball back on their own thirty-fourwith less than three minutes to go, and in¬stead of trying to kill the clock, they cameout passing. Sanderson was sacked on sec¬ond down, and a third down pass fell incom¬plete. On fourth down, the Maroons puntedthe ball to the Grinnell 25.With time running out, the Pioneers cameout gunning. A completed pass gave themthe ball on the 34, but a sack on the next playput them back to the 24. Then, on third andlong, Hanseter put up a long pass down theleft sidelines that was caught and run in fora TD. Their prayers answered, the Grinnellfans watched the extra point go over thecrossbars, and the Pioneers led, 14-13.To add insult to injury, the Pioneers inter¬cepted a Maroon pass with less than a min¬ute remaining in the game and returned itfor the game’s final score.Despite the loss and all the turnovers, firstyear coach Larsen had much to be pleasedwith in the Grinnell game. Besides the out¬standing defensive showing, the Maroonsexhibited great line play, with standoutsDave Fialkowski and Greg Servatius consis¬tently opening up the holes. The runninggame was much improved over last year’s.The backs hit the holes hard and fast, com-Turn to page 2 9KickersHope forComebackfifth year coach was expecting a three-waybattle for the goalie spot between sopho¬more incumbent John Condas, freshmanPedro Dago, and sophomore Stagg ScholarLarry Mendelsohn.DeSilva says that the team could reachthe NCAA Division III playoffs if it retaineda nucleus of four or five freshmen eachyear. He says the program has taken off atChicago in the last three years as he has cutabout 20 players in each of those seasons,but he has not been able to hold on to all ofthe players he placed on the team.At any rate, the team is expected to con¬tend with defending champion Lake Forestfor the 1980 Midwest Collegiate Athletic Con¬ference championship. It will mark the thirdstraight year the Maroon team has been acontender. Some noteworthy games on theChicago schedule this year are home con¬tests against Notre Dame at 4:00 p.m. on Oc¬tober 28, Wheaton at 2:00 p.m. on November5, Northwestern on October 8 and the Home¬coming game against Loyola at 10:00 a m.on October 11 The Maroons will also travelto St. Louis for an October 19 game againstWashington University, a final four team inDivision III last year.28 The Chicago Maroon, Friday, September 26, 1980KickersContinued from page 2 8ing up with 143 net yards. Once quarterbackKim is back in the lineup, and once the backsfind the handle of the football, the Maroonsare going to have an offense that will mea¬sure up to their defense.On the minus side, the squad is extremelyshort-handed. The defensive secondarylacks speed and the kicking game sorelymisses the toe of the graduated Scott Jan¬sen. Anyone interested in coming out for theteam, especially freshmen, is strongly en¬couraged to contact coach Larsen.The Maroons won’t be back in town untilOctober 11.MulvaneyReplaces MetcallBy Mike OcchioliniMary Jean Mulvaney was named interimdirector of athletics for the University onMonday by Dean of Students Charles OConnell. Mulvaney will continue to serve aschairman of the department of physicaleducation and athletics, O’Connell said.She replaces former athletic director JeffMetcalf, who resigned this summer for un¬disclosed reasons.Mulvaney’s appointment was ac¬companied by a reshuffling of respon¬sibilities within the athletic department.Although Metcalf was nominally in chargeof both men’s and women’s athletics duringhis tenure, he devoted much of his time tothe men’s programs, leaving Mulvaney toguide women’s sports. Under the new in¬terim structure, however, Mulvaney willact as the head of both the men’s andwomen s divisions of the department.Reporting to Mulvaney will be footballcoach Bob Larsen, who has been namedassociate chairman for men’s athletics, andwomen’s softball coach at Kirby, who willserve as associate chairman of women’sathletics. The change results in addedresponsibilities for Larsen and Kirby,although they still retain their coachingduties.Dan Tepke and Rosalie Resch, associatechairman of facilities and intramurals,respectively, will continue in their presentpositions, Mulvaney said. The fourassociate chairmen will meet weekly withMulvaney to discuss the University’sathletic programsMulvaney believes that the interim struc¬ture will improve communication within theathletic department and reduce the separa¬tion of the men’s and women’s athletic pro¬grams. “It has really been a merged pro¬gram as far as facilities and policies, butthere has been this problem of looking divid¬ed, and the structure will alleviate that pro¬blem.”O’Connell said that Mulvaney’s appoint¬ment was not made a permanent onebecause of the possibility that a facultycommittee’s evaluation of the departmentscheduled for later in the school year mightrecommend further changes in the struc¬ture of the department. After the report isissued, a permanent director will be ap¬pointed, O’Connell said.IM Deadlines Nearing GOING HOME FOR THANKSGIVINGWEEK-END?

Likemy other friends, though, she’s made herexplanations. Certain facts and traits havebecome associated with her. They’ve builtup a semblance of Greta which surroundsGreta and rivals her, making her seem in¬telligible. What Greta and her friends havetold you about her (and what you’ve toldback to them) covers her like a second skin,apparently substantial. But her skin, hersemblance, is actually trivial. It amounts tonothing more than Greta’s social character.Her social character is useful mostly as anitem in someone’s fat appointment book, asa temporary feature of a stylized habitat. Itis a point of reference in a social contextmade nearly meaningless by constant flux.Whoever she is, though. I’ve relied onGreta since I came to U of C two years ago— relied not on her public performances buton a Greta who seems distant from these.The imperturbable, private Greta keepsherself safe from the rush of events, thoughthe public Greta concerns herself withthem; the private Greta contemplates, thepublic only makes decisions. One is furtiveand mysterious; the other feely circulates.Predictably, the much more visibe, moreunderstandable Greta of classrooms andbus rides offers less in the way of wisdomand sympathy than does the Greta whohides. Though one studies, the other knowsmore, and will admit to what she knows ifasked by someone who shares her interest inthis sort of knowlege — intuitive, enigmatic,yet substantial.I first met Greta with her friends atPierce when I was visiting the College, butbefore I’d decided to enroll. They were anenergetic and impressive group, not forwhat they had in common but for their manydifferences. Their differences seemed to in¬tensify in mixed company, generating end¬less controversy. As they herded together towatch the sunset, attacked their salads sin-gle-mindedly, went to the movies, toured theLake, they did it with the argumentative,hectic air of competing philosophers. Theytalked, ontologized, and talked.But Greta only watched, stabler and morethoughtful, reluctant to join in even thoughthe issues they discussedclearly interested her./ u She loaned the giddy*• eggheads dignity,seeming moreskeptical andmaturethan they were. Whirlwind visit or not, I wantedto know her.So I found myself in Greta’s room on thelast night of my stay. Her door was coveredwith notes from her friends, who seemed toreach her so easily, and with paraphernaliaso colorful and complicated that it seemedshe — surrounded with these insignia of herlife — must be, also.Inside, it was cluttered and dark. Gretasat in a chair, her hair falling sternly butgracefully down her back. She was tall,slow-moving, discreet and inquisitive. Dur¬ing my nervous attempts to arrange myselfin a chair, she waited. Her regal calmnessguided me. Finally positioned, I got up thecourage to engage Greta’s big brown eyes ina straightforward, if slightly unsettling,gaze.The Eskimo quality of her face puzzledme. The obscure serenity of it prevented mefrom making snap judgements. It also mademe more nervous. Overcome with social in¬decisiveness, I wished that Greta wouldtame me. And unobtrusively, she did, ask¬ing me a series of questions somewhat in-audibly.What were they? It’s hard to recall. Butthe charm of her questions was the way theygently woke me to ideas I had had but notbeen conscious of before. Greta hadn’tknown about them any more than I had, yetshe had instinctively led me to them. Andshe left me alone with them after leadingme, not wanting to bully me with too muchmotherly instruction.After I returned to New York, Greta and Ibegan corresponding. In a few weeks, I de¬cided to go to another, more liberal school,bringing a mild reproof from Greta couchedin a reference to Rousseau. I read her ad¬vice on the train as I rode to work that sum¬mer, and dreamed my way through my let¬ters as I wrote them to her. Writing tosomeone I didn’t know well as strange; to doit, I had to invent her, and my own news alsotook on a half-imaginary character. I likedthe enchantment Greta cast on my life. Thesights and sounds of suburban New York —letters — became exotic even to me,because of her.Installed in Providence, I wonderedwhether or not I ought to have chosen Brownover Greta and her school. The glories of in¬stitutionalized permissiveness began topale. This was especially true on the nightwhen I trudged home from my shift at thelocal McDonald’s to find my roommateholding the phoneout sleepily, herpatrician V A proliferations bulging inside her nightgown.Greta’s voice crept tentatively from thereceiver, for no good reason, she said, ex¬cept to say hello. I felt, suddenly, how ter¬ribly small and rainy Rhode Island was, andhow my progress there seemed doomed tosubterranean excesses.Not very easily, and not entirely_forGreta’s sake, I transferred, and spent myfirst winter here worrying, drinking tea, andsuffering from academic over-eagerness.Periodically I would emerge from my atticor from Harper Library and call Greta up.We met a few times, with fanfare at first,but were eventually disappointed by a nebu¬lous something that got in the way of ourfriendship. The people we had become in ourletters didn’t exist in the flesh; we hadn’t ex¬pected ourselves to be what we were. Iwasn’t buoyant or brilliant enough, andGreta, I thought, had become a quasi-partic¬ipant in a game of collegiate social conven¬tions which I loathed (though I didn’t loatheGreta). We had each come down to earth.During lunchtime conferences at the BlueGargoyle, I would struggle to convey mythoughts to her. I had my troubles doing it. Ihad my troubles conveying my thoughtseven to myself, so it wasn’t strictly Greta’sfault. My thoughts, assailed by unreason¬able doubts, simply wouldn’t form for me.She would listen attentively until I felt mywords consuming me and then gave themonologue up. (Alas, I always offeredmonologues.) She seemed to think I was toosolitary, but I refused to reform, no matterhow many pensiye and soulful looks she sentacros the tabletop.With spring, the weather broke, as did mypatience with drudgery : excessive and mo¬notonous schoolwork, spiritual confinement,turmoil repetitiously served up. During anocturnal walk, Greta and I discoveredducks paddling in the soggy Midway; itseemed like a hopeful sign to us. The returnof the ducks meant that we, too, could beginto move about more freely, and to abidemore happily with each other’s unsuspectedquirks.In June we said goodbye with a sense ofoptimism. After considerable toil andstrain, Greta had graduated, and I — thanksto Lipton’s — had survived my sophomoreyear.Our adventures this past year includedthe following.Early winter. We go to the Loop for a po¬etry reading, stopping first to have dinnerdowntown. In the restaurant, we sit in abooth that overlooks the sidewalk and thethrongs passing across it. We indulge in ai¬mless talk; Greta complains about her job, Iair my petty concerns. Tiring of this, Iswitch my attention to the men and womentrotting up the street. They inspire me;Greta catches it. I watch the movement oftheir gray coats, elegant and military, andwonder what is harbored in the coats.Admiration turns to silliness as Greta andI ask each other: Which of these people areprofessional grownups? And do they enjoyit? Most of the grownups turn out to bewomen with crisp coiffures and duskily ex¬pensive boots. Their faces — noses, cheeks,all — have been cajoled and polished intostony brilliance. Not like my mother at all.Not like me. Will I ever be a grownup? I askGreta wistfully. She answers, Molly, wouldyou really want to be one? The wind roars the street, leaving every hair on every pro¬fessional grownup’s head untouched. Gretasmiles, purses her lips, finishes eating heromelet. The grownups stylishly depart onerrands of high significance.Midwinter. I am in trouble with the per¬son I am living with. She awaits me in hersitting room while I dally on the stairs. It isSunday. I don’t want to be bothered withher. Her complaint (unspoken, but obvi¬ous) : I don’t want anyone but myself in myhouse. Let’s please pretend you aren’t here.Mine: My room is always cold; can’t she doanything about it? Of course, she won’t. Iknow very well that she’ll never hear meout. I will have to move. How I hate thisplace.I force myself to keep the appointment,and sit down at a safe distance from herchair. Her tiny poodle yaps. I avert my eyesfrom fate. She begins to lecture me aboutmy responsibilities, with the icy charm thatonly a Southerner can simulate.Miraculously, the doorbell rings, and themeager January sun flings its rays atGreta’s face as she stands, smiling, on thestoop. “Here,” she says, holding out a paperbag. “I made bread, and I thought youmight like some.” She turns to leave.I panic, caught between them — the friendand the enemy.Early Summer. I am sitting on Greta’sporch with Greta and her roommate, eatingdinner. Greta is about to move to the NorthSide; I am about to go away for a week.McDonald’s is below us. The air is dense andhot.We eat various vegetables, and finish upwith a salad that has threads in it. “Wheredid you get these threads from?” I ask.“Your couch?” The threads are crab’smeat, Greta replies. I bring out pink icecream, and we giggle over it. We giggle overalmost everything. When it gets dark we goinside to sweat in the living room.I plot the birthday party that I’m going togive for my mother during my visit home.We think of unusual birthday entertain¬ments: live fish hidden in towering aspic,unannounced tadpoles in stews, snow atlunch, kittens presented at dinner in atureen. Scrambled eggs served in a largetrough (“Mom will have to act her age,” Iexplain). We digress and digress. Gretastretches out in her nice blue dress, abruptlyolder and more sophisticated than I hadever imagined she was.Last week. I talk to Greta on the phone.She is dissatisfied with her new job and herNorth Side apartment. I am having night¬mares, I tell her — my friends are animalscreeping about my room and trying tofrighten me. I don’t think I like them verymuch. Her voice lowers as she makes sym¬pathetic sounds. Are you expecting toomuch of them? she suggests. I admit that Imay be.It seems as if she is calling from a distantplace; I try to force her closer, but don’t re¬ally succeed. We agree to go to a movie nextweek, but the prospect seems unreal, re¬mote. I’m reminded of another time whenshe came to my room and sat in my chair.We talked, in our murky, intimate, comfort¬able way. When she left, I felt the mystery Ialways feel about her and about some of myother friends. When we hung up, I felt itthen./30-The Chicago Maroon, Friday, September 26, 1980CLASSIFIED ADSCLASSIFIEDClassified advertising in the ChicagoMaroon is 75 cents per 30 characterline.

He has a medical degree, is ascholar of the history and philosophy ofscience, and has a particular interest incybernetics. He is also, in case youweren't yet aware of it, quite possibly thebest-known science-fiction author notwriting in English since the days of JulesVern.Return From the Stars and Tales ofPirx the Pilot are the two latest of hisbooks to appear in this country. SinceLem first began publishing in the earlyfifties, he has come out with close totwenty science-fiction novels andshort-story collections ranging frommetaphysical science-fiction thrillerssuch as The Investigation, to the anticrobot epics of The Cyberiad, to thecosmi-comic travel journals of IjonTichy, explorator extraordinary of thecosmos, known as The Star Diaries.However, it was only in 1970, that Lemfirst appeared on the Americanscience-fiction scene with an English/ersion of the 1961 novel, Solaris,followed in 1973, by The Invincible. Thatthese first encounters between Lem andis American public were in factiranslations of French and Germanversions of the original Polish gives someindication of the great distance betweenthe American science-fiction communityand its Iron-Curtain counterpart. The gapquickly began narrowing, however, withMemoirs Found in a Bathtub, alsoappearing in 1973, as a direct translation.With three more novels appearing thefollowing year, Lem was truly launched,and since then English translations of hiswork have appeared regularly. As aresult, his reputation as a writer of wit,style and intellectual rigor has not ceasedto grow, and his position as one of thepillars of 20th-century science-fiction isundisputed in any language. Now, tenyears after Lem's American debut, we 'are presented with two of his earlierworks in Return From the Stars (1980)and Tales of Pirx the Pilot (1979), givingus an even dozen of this multi-facetedauthor's books and characterizing —insofar as such a thing is possible with,the Renaissance-man Lem — two poles ofthe wide and varied Lemian world.. In translating Lem's later works first,the vagaries of international publishing Stanislaw Lemhave led to a slightly skewed perceptionof Lem. Return From the Stars, though itappears to us in America in 1980 on theedge of a new decade of science-fiction,and, to our eyes, as Lem's latest work, isactually one of his first major novelswhich appeared in Polish nearly twentyj years ago. And so, with an ironic twitsti which Lem himself surely appreciates,1 the situation around which the book isbuilt — a time-constriction-astronautreturning to Earth 140 years after leavingit, forced to deal with the alien worldi which was once his own — parallels the| fate of the book itself. Now, twenty years! later in our world, Return seems slightlyout of context, both in terms of Lem asj he has appeared to us over the past teni years, and against the expandingboundaries of science-fiction. As such,Return appears in a slightly lessfavorable light than it deserves,particularly for those already familiarwith Lem, for it seems that there is| nothing "new" here, that he has merelygone back to his earlier style of TheInvestigation and Solaris, and, knowing| his possibilities, there is a slight twingeI of disappointment. The disappointment,! however, is purely due to circumstanceand none of this is to say that Return isnot well-written or thought-provoking, forit is those things and more. Return is! definitely characteristic of the moreserious, more purely philosophical Lem of the early novels, and were it but forthat alone, it would be a welcomeaddition to the Lem canon. That it alsohas style and subtle humor simplyconfirms its value.Return is a "conventional"science-fiction novel in that its centralthemes are those of time-travel andutopia, evoking Wells' Time Machine andHuxley's Brave New World, though withmore psychological depth than theformer, and considerably morecompassion than the latter. Hal Breggereturns from a ten-year mission toFomalhaut to find himself a stranger inhis own world where close to a centuryand a half have passed since he left it.Meantime, the world has evolved (ordisintegrated) into a pleasure-seekingutopia where all of man's aggressiveinstincts have been bred out of him bythe mysterious process of "betrization."Bregge, of course, has not beenbetrizated, and how this affects hisattempts to deal with the world as it nowis, and especially how it affects hisrelationships with women, from the heart! of this novel. Around this core, Lembuilds his brave new world that has suchthings as gleeders, rasts, calsters, and! ubiquitous robots in it. Some of thei funniest moments in the book — forhowever weighty Return From the Stars: may be, the novel does have a number ofi humorous parts — result from Bregge'sconfrontations with these novelties; theyare also some of the most disquieting,reinforcing his isolation in a world he can| no longer interpret, because he no longershares a frame of reference withhumanity as it has become. Lem deals; here not with the cosmic, but with theearthly, indeed the intensely personalproblem of a man trying to cope in aI world which has changed beyond belief;: a world where the very fabric ofhumanity has altered, and he must bel forever alien. Is this progress? Is itworth it? These are the basic questionsReturn proposes, and Lem returns to in| his other novels. In the final analysis, we! have no assurance of Bregge's survival; on this new Earth, for Lem is not one tomake things easy for us by coming upwith neatly-tied answers to convenientlysoluble problems. Return remains as! open-ended as the questions it presents.Tales of Pirx the Pilot gives us atotally different side of Lem, though one! no less characteristic. In theirforeshadowing of the particularcombination of antic humor andphilosophical questioning characteristic ot the later Lem of the Star Diaries andThe Cyberiad. These five stories of thelate fifties and early sixties come close,1 than Return From the Stars to whatmakes Lem a unique voice inscience-fiction. The hero of these storiesis a space-pilot, like Hal Bregge, butpilot-trainee Pirx is a quite different sortthan the protagonist of Return, closer tobeing an alter-ego of the Ijon Tichy ofStar Diaries but with less panache, andmore bumbling. As in Return, the themesof these stories are for the most partthose of conventional science-fiction, setI in a time when space-cadets are asi common as air-force cadets now, andtourists visit the Moon the way travelersI today visit the Grand Canyon. KlutzyPirx first appears in these stories as little| more than a foil for the action — the; simulated moon-flight of "The Test," thespecial missions of "The ConditionedI Reflex" and "On Patrol" — adventures! for which he is selected by his superiors! either for his special talents or his1 particular expendability. We are neversure for which reasons and neither is he.Pirx is not a space-hero, but a ratherordinary guy who flies space ships for aliving and isn't particularly bright. Butas the stories progress, we find Pirx| developing into an increasingly complex! character, and in "Terminus," the lastand longest of the stories, Lem treatswhat is perhaps his quintessential theme1— the relationship between man and! robot. We see a Pirx of unexpected depthand intelligence as he weighs theimplications of a machine endowed withI intelligence by man, and considers theextent to which it is responsible for itsactions.In this collection of early stories we see; how the comic Lem emerges and blendswith the familiar, more serious Lem.The reputation of Lem as thinker andentertainer is further strengthened bythese two books, in spite of the years theyhave spent in the publisher's time warp.We see the early Lem as he is today; an: intellectual with a sense of humor andstyle who does much to debunk setnotions about a much-misunderstoodgenre often patronized as mere "lightreading." In showing us that,science-fiction has the capacity to be bothentertaining and mind-teasing, Lemsituates this flexible medium at the newfrontiers of literature, and shows it to be! the genre of choice in dealing with theserious problems which technology andprogress force upon us as they meet withevery-day humans and every-day life.Confluence: RecallingNorthern Oregon, Cascade Head,Late SummerThere are limits here;As if the land out of some coldSeason turned, with white spraysOf laughter and catastrophe,To a new cause; if, wakedOne morning, lifting off what has coveredYou, moving to theWindow pale and stiff as an old dancerIn the ashes and light, you found yourselfAble finally to say Invitation.

His first book of poems,Bucyrus, was published in the states,while the more recent ones, Turns andCrossing were published in England.John has also edited an anthology called24 Modern British Poets, and has atranslation of modern Swedish poets,done in collaboration, about to come out.He is presently teaching at Notre Dameand spending summers writing poetry inEngland.All of us were surprised at seeing JohnMatthias for the first time. Since he wasfrom Notre Dame, perhaps we expected aburly, Irish footballer. John is tall, butgaunt, with thinning brown hair, and longbony hands that punctuate and conduct hispoems as he reads. John was, as one of theclass would later write, "here to teach useach and all to whack out decent poems."After class each Friday, all would adjournto Jimmy's to talk of politics, the weather,and very often, poetry.The official interview also occurred atJimmy's on a rainy Thursday. John wouldnot let me use a tape recorder, so I wrotehis words on the paper I had with me —backs of poems and translations fromLorca. With his pen. I have taken most ofmy questions out of the interview; not thatI didn't ask them, but I didn't write themdown.JOHN : Poetry begins with a realization,a sense when you are very young of Ianguage having a non-utilitarian use. You begin liking things — words, phrases — be¬cause they hold you, they are more thanwords have been before. Slowly you findthat people don't only use language forpractical purposes, the realization of whatDavid Jones calls the gratuitous elementof language which is different fromAuden's description of "frivolous" lan¬guage. You recognise that there is a cer-Tin language which is both gratuitous andessential. The recognition of this languagecomes to you even before you learn towrite. This quasi-incantitory, musical, nu¬minous language. You want more becauseit feeds you.There were single phrases with incanti-tory power, things I would mumble to my¬self when I was very young. My father toldme stories, one about a man named "oldJohn Rumpright" and I would mutter thename over and over to myself. It was per¬haps my first line of poetry.After the recognition of this incantitory jlanguage comes the even greater recogni¬tion that it is infinitely extendable and at¬tainable. You begin to make conscious at¬tempts to implement the second type of :language.You can do this by learning craft: asmuch as you can, every available tech¬nique. Here is where as a teacher I feel l ;can help. I part through my example, myexcitement. AYt is not just craftsmanship;it is content, imagination, any number ofvariables that you can't teach. But, without technique you've got all this stuff in¬side that you can’t get out. Technique isthe liberating faculty.Eventually there comes a time when youbegin to distinguish between self-therapy and the objective character of the artifact.(What do you mean by the objective char¬acter of the artifact?)A poem can be therapeutic for the writeror for the reader. But first the poem com¬municates form. Essentially readers go toart for a formal stimulation and a formalsatisfaction. What is exciting is the waythe poem orders and shapes the emotions.How it creates an experience that is not areplica of anything else but is uniquely ofthat poem, of that form. When you begin torealize that the poems are not just for youbut are for Them, then they take on this objective character, then they become a me-j dium of exchange.And the more you realize the objectivej character, the more you realize the tradi-! tion. It impinges on you. You begin to realize your obligation to it. Like when Zhivagofelt the blood of all the Russian poets flowing through his veins.I don't really believe Rilke's notion thatto write good poetry you must be the sortwho would die if you could no longer write.There are all kinds of ways to get thepoems written. Poetry can be an obsession. An absence of this obsession does notkeep you from writing good poems and is alot healthier. Yet if what matters is poetry,if you are going to be obsessive about it, ithen the problem is how the hell do you doit?My solution is to get as many leaves aspossible, and to go to England where I'm| not obliged to sit on committees, where Ican think and write. And go to pubs alot |too. One thing that is essential to the writ jing of good poetry is having the time to 1hang around in bars, drinking and talking. Sadly, it's difficult to convince grant com¬mittees of this.(What is a poet?)To be a poet is to have a commitmentwhere truth scarcely exists apart from theshape it takes in poems, apart from theway one moves toward truth in the shapingof the poem.(How do you make your poems?)When Ed Dorn was here someone askedhim that and he quoted Johnson sayingthat there are three ways to write: either itcomes out whole and you don't touch it, orsmall and you expand it, or huge and youcut it down. It happens all three ways forme. A few short poems come out whole anddon't need revision, but I don't write shortpoems much. Occasionally one is strange¬ly graced.Mostly my poems begin with a buzz or ahum, a little nonverbal thing. Then a wordor group of words will associate to the buzzand more words wi.ll form around that.Sometimes the buzz will suggest some¬thing as formulaic as the Lermentovcycle.I work simultaneously on a typerwriterand a pad. I write a bit then work and workon it then put it in the typewriter and at thesame time I'm drafting what comes next.I don't usually find l need to revise thewhole because revision is continuous in thecreation. I move very slowly; each bit ismore like fastening a link in the chain. Bythe end it is whole because the tamperingis constant.(What do you feel is poetry's function in so¬ciety?)continued on pg. 11A Short StoryThe Varieties of Religious ExperienceBy Angelo Restivo1. In Case of EmergencyIt starts with a coincidence, usually. Youare walking around — downtown, probably— and just as you hear a low-flying super¬sonic airforce test plane fly overhead, younotice the sign: "BOMB SHELTER INSIDE." Of course, from then on, you rarely hear those planes, but you can't help no¬ticing the signs, the ominous signs, on allthe buildings.Then you find yourself Tn an elevator andyou are staring at the lighted numbersabove the door. You feel a slight rumble;your eyes dart away nervously. You dis¬cover the button: "IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, PRESS."Then you discover that your favorite littie neighborhood restaurant has prominently displayed a rather ugly little yellowsign, with cartoon figures in grotesque postures, and another message: "FIRST AIDFOR CHOKING."By now, of course, you have becomehyper perceptive: "IN CASE OF FIRE,USE STAIRWELL"; "FOR POLICE AS¬SISTANCE PLEASE PULL"; "DANGEROUS CURVE AHEAD."Then, someone tells you about heart-boings. You've never heard of them."Heart boings!" he says. "You know,you're walking down the street and yourheart is acting normal, da DUM da DUMda DUM; suddenly you feel a terrifyinghesitation, then . . . buh-da-buh da-buh-daDOOM!" "My God," you cry, "What do yodo?" "Well, you can always find a place tosit down for a minute — a park bench, atenement stoop; the curb, if you're reallydesperate."Finally, you look up, and though thereare no discernable clouds, the sun seemsvaguely obscured. And the sky seems topress down around you, the air is heavyand dark and refuses to yield forth its sustenance no matter how deeply youbreathe. In panic, you look for a sign — butfor this emergency, none has yet been devised. 2. SensualityLacan's definition of the phallus: thatwhich passes between mand woman in thesexual act, but which neither can totallypossess.We are intrigued by Lacan especially be¬cause he has uttered phrases that no one ihas thought possible: "the undiscovered jcontinent of female sexuality/' for examp !le, which comes to mind as we stagger jj from the moviehouse showing In the j| Realm of the Senses, as we recall the se- j: vered penis brandished by Woman Trium- j! phant. Freud knew of the phallus only — he j’never knew her eyes.You sit in a dim cafeteria drinking coffeeI from a styrofoam cup, and what you first !notice about the woman sitting along in thenext booth is not her hair falling forward j! as she leans toward the book, nor her lips j| slightly parted in a spif conscious half- i| smile, nor her body hidden in layers ofj clothing and disappearing beneath thesterile tabletop. It is the mysterious recog |nition. She casually looks up from her bookand turns her head towards you. You blink jand look briefly away, then glance at heronce more. She waits a split second, then jlooks down at her book, her fingers picking •i at the second-from the top button of her iblouse. Later, of course, you tell jokes, jbrush thighs. Your fingers explore the button, until slowly the layers are strippedaway and you feel the unfathomable !breathless sighs on your neck as the wavesof her body lap against you in obscure or :gasm.This uncharted geography — how vainly Ido we, no longer children, look for its jmaps! At eight, we found discarded magazines in the alley, grainy photographs thatonly hinted of hills, valleys, deltas. Attwelve, we discovered the island of Rapa,where at nightfall lithe women swaythrough groves of banana trees and beckonwith curved, uplifted fingers. Perhaps theclosest we came was at thirteen, our awk¬ward fingers sliding up a thigh, moving toward Atlantis, and with a slight shiverwe thought there's nothing there.3. Country/Western"Batter my heart . .I don't know, I guess you could say we're jhappy. People say we make a good couple.You know, she acts crazy now and then,but hell. It goes away. It comes and it !goes.Like the time we went to Nashville. It !was one of those times when, you know,she'd been jumping around the house like jshe had some kind of itch or something,until it got to the point where we were hating each other, and I said "There's only jone thing to do: go to the Grand Ole Opry."She said, "Yes, that's where they singabout men being men and girls being |girls." And so we thought everything 'would be so simple, like Tammy singing |"Stand By Your Man," singing the words ,like she was praying; and every time shesang "Stand by your man, and show theworld you love him," all the redneck mensat back smiling and secure while the girlsstood bv their men and ran their fingersaround the hair at the napes of their realmen's red necks. Then she said, "Let's goto a motel,” and I said, "Okay," and so wefound a cheap one, and we did it, and afterwards she said, "It almost worked." I punched her in the mouth. I thought she'dhate me for it, and maybe she did exceptshe said, "My real man," and we got allhorny —. I remember the biood runningdown my belly — and we did it again.Then we left. I started telling her stories,like Marlon Brando did in Last Tango inParis, only mine weren't as good becauseI'm no Marlon Brando. I said, "When I wasa kid I had a little puppy and when shegrew up I couldn't understand thosestrange moods she got in and when itseemed she didn't care about me at all,and then one day she was in one of thosemoods and I let her out and the last l saw ofher she was running away in a pack offierce looking men-dogs." "No, no!" shecried. I said, "The thing with my cousinAnnie started after she went to Bonanzaand got ptomaine poisoning. Or maybe be¬fore, when she rolled her two hundred-some pounds around in my bed and said,'Well, cuz, show me you're a man!' Butthen she went home — she had her folks'basement with a separate entrance — andbegan eating and eating until she couldn'tget through the doors." "No, no!" "Yes,and she begged her folks to widen the door— 'A garage door,' a neighbor suggested —but her folks were embarrassed to haveher lumbering around outside so theydidn't; they just knocked out a couple of interior walls and brought her trays threetimes a day." "No, no!"So during the drive home she becamemore and more wigged out, and when wegot home I said, "There's only one thing todo: cocaine." "Yum," she said. Then weout Tammy on the stereo and took off ourclothes. "I don't hate you any more," shesaid. She put on the sheer stockings andthe spiked heel shoes. "I just want you tofeel pain for me." So I lay down on thefloor and she tied my arms to the legs ofthe sofa. "You thought you had me cor¬nered, didn't you?" she said. And then,"My man."continued on pg. 19The Chicago Literary Review, September 26, 1980—5 CutOutbyBarbaraJonesHoguHow to Cope with It,The Draft:An Interview with a Draft CounselorSince January of this year, whenPresident Carter proposed a program toregister all of the nation's nineteen andtwenty-year-olds for a draft, anti-draftgroups and coalitions have beenorganizing an attack against what manybelieve is both a new effort to bring backa full draft and also a full-fledgedattempt at militarizing the country. Thehigh point of the current anti-draftmovement took place on March 22nd,when more than thirty-five thousandpeople gathered in Washington in hopesof keeping Congress and the Senate fromapproving Carter's plan. Nevertheless, inJune of this year — while campuses weresafely emptying out of their students —the Senate passed Carter's registrationplan requiring those born in 1960 and 1961to fill out registration forms at thenation's post offices.In the interests of informing students,young people, and anyone else concernedabout the implications of a new draft andthe consequent militarization ofAmerican society, the Chicago LiteraryReview tracked down Marian Neudel, adraft counselor and attorney withMidwest Committee on MilitaryCounseling. Ms. Neudel has had a busycareer in academia and in communitywork. After studying at Radcliffe shewent on to do sociology at Brandeis, asemester of Divinity at Harvard, andthen four years of Islamic studies here atChicago before getting her law degree.She has worked as an editor for theChicago Defender and ran a legal aidoffice in a Puerto Rican neighborhood onChicago's North-West side. In addition todoing counseling and organizing workwith Midwest Council, Neudel works foran environmental agency of the federalgovernment.Interviewed about the draft in herHyde Park apartment, she spoke of thecurrent anti-draft movement, her workas a draft counselor, and the U.S.military. At the time of the interview,Neudel was not able to comment on theSelective Service's recent statistics onregistration, which had yet to come out.Those statistics, which claimed thatninety-three per-cent of those required toregister did register, contradictedseveral reports, including an independentBoston Globe study, which claimed thatnearly thirty per-cent of those who shouldhave registered did not. Neudel saidrecently, as have others in the anti-draftmovement, that she is highly suspiciousof the Selective Service's figures. "Itcould be just a mistake on their part,"said Neudel, "but their figures just don'tadd up", ven contradicting census figuresfor young men born in 1960 and 1961. Thefollowing is a question-and answerinterview with Neudel. The interview wasconducted by "Rupert Birkin."Question: What's the current state ofregistration?Neudel: The registration was from July21 to August 2, and that was for men bornin 1960 and 1961. Now that that's out ofthe way there's not going to be anotherregistration until the first week ofJanuary, and that will be for males bornin 1962. After January there will be acontinuing obligation to register for menborn after 1962 as they turn eighteen,which means that within thirty days oftheir eighteenth birthday they'resupposed to register.Question: What sort of people are comingto talk with you at Midwest Committeefor Military Counseling's office? Are youseeing a large number of people rightnow?Neudel: Things are a bit quiet at themoment. We're anticipating a little lullbetween now and December, and afterthat we expect to see more people as a Draft Attorney Marian Neudel| result of the pressures of each newj registration. We see a lot of people whowant to know what it means to register,what obligations it places them under,! what's likely to happen to them if they do| register, and if they don't. We get a lot ofi people who don't have a lot of experienceto draw on in dealing with registration.I They're very young, and Vietnam jsancient history to them. World War Two| is pre history. They sort of vaguely hear• things and don't know how to sort them! out, so there's a lot of confusion and; misinformation. A small proportion of: people come in who hope to at leastassure they will never have to fight in a| war like Vietnam.Question: What reasons are you hearingj from people who have decided not toregister? Are you getting people withthought-out political responses?Neudel: We don't hear a whole lot ofcoherent politics, although there areexceptions to that. There's mostly aninstinctive dislike of war on the part ofthe people we talk with. A dislike ofviolence, of the military lifestyle, of thekinds of wars that they feel the UnitedStates has been involved in in the last! twenty or thirty years. There's also afeeling that any war we'd be likelhy toget involved in now would be forpurposes that they couldn't see gettinginvolved in.Question: What has been the reaction ofpeople in the anti-registration, anti-draftmovement to the Boston Globe's recentreport that more than twenty-five per cent of those who should have registeredhave not? What does this mean in termsof the selective service's efforts to findnon-registrants?Neudel: Most people I know areextremely pleased by the Globe's report.Frankly, I was just ecstatic, particularlysince those figures are probablyconservative. That's because they'rebased on an estimate of the populationthat should have registered as given bycensus figures. Those figures ae probablytoo small, so in fact the proportion ofnon-registrants is most likely larger. It'sencouraging in a lot of ways. It meansthat what the anti-draft movement hashad to say about registration hasprobably gotten to a lot of people. It alsomeans that undoubtedly a lot of peoplehave just decided on their own, withoutgetting advice or information, thatregistration is not for them. Of course italso means that the usual number ofpeople, out of confusion ormisinformation, just never got around toregistering. At the same time that it'sencouraging, it's also something that aperson who has decided not to registershould keep an eye out for. On the otherhand it means that there are more peoplefor the government to try to catch.Presumably, it means that it will beharder for the government to catch anyindividual. On the other hand, I think thatthe public non-registrants — thosenon-registrants who have made a point ofpublicly and openly not registering,usually before a large number of people— may be in more danger than if theSelective Service had been moresuccessful with registration. Thegovernment might just get mad at thelousy turn-out and want to makeexamples out of them.Question: How do you think the SelectiveService will handle non-registrants,assuming they wish to find them?Neudel: Well, first off, I want toemphasize that what I'm about to say ispurely speculative, based on a number offactors; partly on the Vietnamexperience, partly on some knowledgethat some of us have on the workings ofthe federal courts and the federal lawenforcement systems, and partly onpolitical instinct. First of all, I don't thinkanything is going to happen until afterthe November elections, because it'shard to imagine any measure ofenforcement the government could take which wouldn't be bad politics on oneside or the other. If you bust too manypeople, you make the left wing angry,and if you bust too few you get theright-wing upset — better if you don'tbust anybody for awhile. Second, I thinkeverybody but the very public non¬registrants will get a second chance toregister. Anybody who just stayed homewill probably get a letter saying, "Wehaven't heard from you, all is forgiven ifyou sign up. . ." Possibly even a thirdchance in some cases. That would beperfectly in keeping with what happenedall the time during the Vietnam War. insome cases the option may be tied tovery strong encouragement to go into thearmed forces and all will be forgiven.Third, I think the very publicnon registrants almost certainly will beprosecuted.Question: Aren't there tremendousdifficulties involved in counseling peopleabout registration? Do you have to walksomething of a tight rope between beingvery sympathetic to resistance, evensupporting it, yet wanting to give theperson being counseled the hard factsI without pushing your own views across?Neudel: Yes, the whole counselingj process is a little schizoid now and then.i We believe it is extremely important toj remember at every step that it is theperson being counseled who will have to"I'd say we now are at thestage that it took the Viet¬nam anti-draft movementthree years to get to."j take the consequences of whatever! decision he finally ends up making, and1 that the rest of us, at best, can onlyI supply information and support andclarification. But at the same time, thedraft counselor has his or her ownviewpoint on all of this. Not all draftcounselors advocate resistance. Manyjust hope as many people as possible willbe damaged as little as possible by thedraft. But whatever viewpoint you take,on the one hand, you have to avoid hittingthe counselee over the head with it, andon the other hand you can't conceal it, atleast not effectively or for very long. Itends up working its way into subtlethings you do during counseling if you'renot careful. I've always believed verystrongly that one should come out andsay at some point to the counselee, "Thisis what I believe. . .", or "I'm ferventlyWhere to Go for Advice, OrganizingMidwest Committee on Military Counsel¬ing (MCMC)202 South State StreetChicago, III. 60604tel. 939 3349Once the Midwest Committee for DraftCounseling, this organization was an im¬portant part of the national anti-war move¬ment during the Vietnam War.

It took that movementabout seven years to get to that point. I'dsay we now are at the stage that it tookthe Vietnam anti-draft movement threeyears to get to. Part of the reason for thisis that we're working with some of thesame people as before. This is one of thethings that encourages me a lot. Also, thecurrent movement does have a verybroad spectrum of different ages,different experiences, different ethnicbackgrounds — it's much lesswhite-collar, middle-class male this timearound. That's enormously encouraging.And because we have a lot of old handsaround we don't spend so much timereinventing the wheel. We're not at thestage where the Vietnam anti draft wasat its most enormous, but I think we'rewell on the way to it.Question: What do you think is the bestreason for opposing the latestregistration and draft drive?Neudel: Essentially, this registration isalmost a referendum on the foreignpolicy that President Carter has beenfollowing. It's a foreign policy which has(much more blatantly than I can recall inother political campaigns, which issaying a lot) been oriented to gettingCarter elected, nominated. It's pure,gross electioneering politics on the partof Carter. It's furthermore a foreignpolicy that in its long-range implications— if it can even be said to have long-termimplications or that it's even a policy,and I'm not sure you can say that — is asat least as frightening as anythingReagan could come up with it. Carter hasbeen playing around with our nuclearweapons policy in ways every bit asthreatening as what Reagan or Bush hasbeen talking about. This registration ispart and parcel of that whole policy.Question: So you don't think Carter is allthat different from Reagan on an issuelike the draft?Neudel: Well, Reagan says he's opposedto a peacetime draft. If I thought he wasin favor of peacetime I'd find thatcomforting.Question: Can one attack the registrationand draft movement without coming toterms with the inadequacies of thepresent military system? Doesn't theanti-draft movement have to deal withthe idea of economic conscription, thefact that it's the poor who seem to befilling the military's ranks?Neudel: Any anti-draft movement has tocome to terms with the problems ofpeople in the armed forces. That's absolutely essential, and that was one ofthe great mistakes of the Vietnamanti-draft movement — we didn't do that,and the Gl anti-war movement and thegeneral anti-draft movement were keptapart for far too long. But I don't thinkit's true that the all-volunteer army hasfailed, as we're always being told. Thefact is that it hasn't been tried. And whenyou talk about economic conscriptionyou're not talking about anybodydragging a person into the army, you'retalking about the civilian economyshoving the person in. That is the point atwhich it has to be criticized. Quie asidefrom that, military pay is grosslyinadequate. There are probably a quarterof a million military families that are onfood stamps or are eligible for stamps.Overseas it's particularly bad, given thefluctuations in currency. Militaryfamilies are literally living quite close tostarvation overseas, and it's a problemwhich has been going on for the last threeyears.In addition to that, the military does alot of its recruiting by promising thepeople who need it most (but who areleast likely to get it in the civilian world)an education. They like to promise aneducation, job training, educationalbenefits after service — all the kinds ofthings which people like to think are partof the Veterans Administration becauseafter World War Two and Korea therewere such benefits. Nowadays there arenot. Most of the people who enlist in needof those things — non-whites, non-highschool graduates, working class people,those whose educations were somehowlacking — are not going to pass the testsi to get into these fancy technicali specialties that can be parlayed intocivilian jobs. These people will probablyj end up in combat or infantry-related• work which has no counterpart incivioian industry — so far anyway, thank| God. They'll come out — at best — as| unemployable as they went in. And given| that non-whites get an enormous! percentage more of bad discharges thanl whites in the military, they may comeout in worse shape than when they wentin.

By no means exhaus¬tive, the list is meant to touch on the bet¬ter, more relevant books which have comeout about the War and the Draft.The DraftChance and Circumstance: The Draft, TheWar, and The Vietnam Generation byLawrence M. Baskir and William A.Strauss (Knoph)Essential reading for anyone interested orinvolved in the current anti-draft move¬ments. Baskir and Strauss cover the rangefrom "deserters" to "evaders,""avoiders" to exiles," and confronts theproblem of amnesty. A pointed analysis ofthe Selective Service system and the manyremarkable ways in which the lucky, theclever, the rich and the privileged managed to keep the draft board hounds awayfrom the door (the actor George Hamilton,for instance, received a hardship defer¬ment because his mother lived in his Hol¬lywood mansion and relied on his $200,000income for support). This is a scrupulous¬ly-researched study, with a section on"The Next War" which is of particularcurrent value.Your Rights and The Draft by KennethLasson (Pocket Books)Rushed to press after President Carter'spro-registration address, this skimpy 60-page book by a law professor at the Uni¬versity of Baltimore shows signs of want¬ing to make a quick buck off panickynineteen and twenty-year-olds. It is, how¬ever, the most recent guide to the work¬ings of the draft and the Selective Servicesystem, and its easy question and-answerapproach is very readable. Anybodyseriously thinking of countering registra¬tion and the draft should probably readand inquire more deeply elsewhere.The End of the Draft: A Proposal for abol¬ishing conscription and for a volunteerarmy, for popular resistance to militarismand the restoration of individual freedomby Thomas Reeves and Karl Hess, withprefaces by Sen. Mark Hatfield andGeorge McGovern (Random House)An absolutely superior extended attack onthe draft system, with fine emphasis on theconnection between a draft and an overlymilitarized society. Reeves and Hess offerserious arguments that go far beyond sim¬ply opposing a draft for individual freedomreasons. They show how a volunteer army,if whole-heartedly tried and financiallysupported, is in actuality the more desirable national defense.Why the Draft?: The Case for a VolunteerArmy edited by James C. Miller (Pen¬guin)What can one say about a book whose jacket cover includes glowing words from Mil-ton Friedman and John Kenneth Gal¬braith? It may be mind-boggling, but itmost likely says something about thestrange bed fellow issue the draft really is, ! an issue which ropes in Republicans andDemocrats, Socialists and Libertarians.| The writers here summarize the argu-! ments for and against the draft, and weighalternatives on the basis of equity, feasibil¬ity, national tradition, social balance anddemocratic ideals. All conclude that con¬scription in whatever form is inequitable,for it places a special "tax in-kind" onthose forced into service. The volunteerarmy gets their vote because it's lowest inactual cost. Examining the cases of Bri¬tain and Canada, which already have vol¬unteer armies, they call for an immediateraise in military pay with improved mili-'tary living conditions.APhilip CaputoThe WarGoing After Cacciato, by Tim O'Brien.(Avon Books)This outstanding first novel by a VietNam veteran and former editor of Plough¬shares magazine is a hallucinogenicchronicle of a platoon's search for anAWOL comrade. It won the National BookAward for fiction in 1978.A Rumor of War, by Phillip Caputo.| (Avon)A Rumor of War is Caputo's personal,often harrowing account of how and why, he joined the Marines in the mid-Sixties,I his experiences in combat in Viet Nam,and his disillusionment with the war.Sideshow, by William Shawcross. (Ban-j tarn)A carefully researched, impeccably do¬cumented history of U.S. involvement inCambodia, beginning with the secret"Breakfast" bombing missions in 1969 andcontinuing through the installation of LonNol and the almost complete devastationof the countryside by American bombs.OH.

Suddenly shefinds herself lodged between a "pink handwith bitten nails grasping her right arm,"and a "black hand with a long dialed watchand thong bracelet pulling at her leftelbow." She is momentarily caught in the"soldier's embrace" of the title story inSouth African Nadine Gordimer's latestcollection.In the twelve short stories of this vol¬ume, Gordimer dexterously balances apervasive South African milieu with aunique world of her own creation. Gor¬dimer portrays the tensions of modernSouth Africa with great intensity, but theindividual struggle of each of her charac¬ters is never lost in the background of thisanimated picture. Character and settingboth retain their distinct attributes but arenever disconnected from each other.In the title story we are initially swept upwith the rejoicing crowd; we recognize thepolitical situation Gordimer is dealingwith and identify the embrace as an ex¬pression of hope for unity. Yet graduallythe embrace emerges as a personal sym¬bol for the narrow limitations of the atti¬tudes in which the protagonist and her hus¬band have trapped themselves. At first thetone in which the story is told seems to besympathetic but through a series of ap¬parently small events, the fear, self-pity,ancT~rationalizations of the protagonistbegin to show. The story neatly uncoversthis woman's growing insecurity as the po¬litical changes in her country threaten toexpose the hypocrisy of the life she and herhusband have led as white liberals: liberalenough to appease their consciences butnot so liberal as to threaten their comfort¬able way of life. The couple make a greatshow of being different from those whites ANovel ofSouth Africa, - 4:AMJA■ W ■wm -v- mwho had supported the colonial war andthose "many ordinary white people whohad lived contentedly" under the colonialgovernment without questioning its ac¬tions. The underlying character of their at¬titudes, however, becomes apparent particularly in their reluctance to unde standtheir black servant. The story is about selfdeception as much as inability to adjust tochange. Like many in this volume, itachieves great complexity without flamboyant prose or lengthiness.In "You Name It" Gordimer effectively Nadine Gordinerworks the opposite way, developing a character whom we initially feel little sympathy for but eventually come to respect. Theprotagonist of this story is a woman whohas long kept the real identity of herdaughter's father a secret. This womanbriefly fills us in on the events surroundingthe birth of this daughter: her affair, herhusband's conviction that the child is his,her continual yearning for the lover whohas left her. She deserts her husband andtakes a job, but eventually returns to him.Always the secret of her daughter's "iden¬ tity" plagues her. By the story's end, how¬ever, she comes to realize that she has deceived herself more than her husband. Shehas refused to see that her husband's af¬fection and care for the child has made thechild his: that although he is not her parentby blood, he is the child's father.Gordimer is a good story teller. A few ofthese stories, however, fall short of theoverall quality of this volume. "Siblings"seems to hint around a number of impor¬tant themes such as self-destructivenessand adolescent sexuality but never quitegoes anywhere with them. The overly obvi¬ous symbolism in "The Termitary"creates such a top heavy division betweenwhat the story actually seems to be tryingto say and the way that it is said, that theflow of the story is interrupted. But eventhese are redeemed by Gordimer's strongsense of atmosphere.Of her first stories published almostthirty years ago, The London Timespraised Gordimer's ability to use a setting"That may be unfamiliar to some readerswithout obtruding the background or mak¬ing compromises in reducing its influ¬ence." This remains an outstandingcharacteristic in her work today. A Sol¬dier's Embrace is both a social statementabout a specific place at a specific time,and a universal portrayal of some of themore unhappy facets of life.AShortStoryNow, six months after his death I sawJordon again in a dark room, flickering infront of my projector, Jordon walking through the gutter, kicking the leaves,looking up to me to say "Winter is com¬ing," mouthing the words widely, knowingmy film is going to be silent, Jordan againin black and white and vest and greasy hatlooking tired and drowsy and ready fordeath but not expecting anything but moredays, more life, more locations, crossingleft, crossing right, leaning on the chapel,crawling through the quadrangles, disappearing and appearaing like TV witches,like Endora and Samantha and Sirena,popping from here to there to there (andthere), standing undera a tree, meditatingin the grass, holding a stick like a dopepipe, looking unworried by the flux sweep¬ing him around the park, shaking the treesand moving the cars, unworried by hisframe by frame imprisonment, his hairnever disturbed by the scene changes, theexposure differences, the bleached outfront of "The Medici", the too dark shot ofthe "Admin" building, Jordon in hisbleached world glowing with miscalculated f-stop, shaking his fist, shouting silently"I hate this place", double exposed on agraduate student juggling apples, Jordonagain with Tammy, Kali and Dolores,three of his women, waltzing in complicated box steps, Jordon smiling, saying something, kissing Kale while juggled applescircle his head; Kali smiles and Tammysmies and Dolores closes her eyes, and thethree grab Jordon by his legs and push himtoward the sky, lifting him until his head iscut out of the frame while the graduate stu¬dent bows and disappears replaced by adifferent shot of Jordon, Jordon on Jordon,Kali and Tammy and Dolores holding Jordon, superimposed on Jordon, disappear¬ing with Jordon, fading out to reveal thenew shot of Jordon alone, kicking leaves inthe gutter, looking up to me to say "I'mtired, let's go", mouthing the words widelyknowing I'm not ready to quit, but sudden¬ly Kali walks into frame, her clotheschanged from summer dress to jeans andhalter, and her hair is tied back and as shewalks toward Jordon the frame fades towhite.Jack Helbig A Poem About PassionYou might bring roses — darkyellow — to draw the roomclose around; long stems,her hands wet, bloodwelling on her thumb.

We ll godeeper still: drifting,downward & out.— Sara PlathThe Chicago Literary Review, September 26, 1980—9MacDonald: F athoming ConnectionsBy Deborah ThorpThe World's Fattest Dancer. The Sia¬mese Sextuplets. The Lady Pitcher. TheMosaic Hunchback. These are a few of thecharacters who round out the rogue's gal¬lery in Cynthia Macdonald's most recentcollection of poetry, (W)holes. Fittingly,the book's epigraph is from the womanwho was best known for her own preoccu¬pation with freaks, flaws, and other aber¬rations, Diane Arbus: "Nothing is ever thesame as they said it was. It's what I'venever seen before that I recognize." Yet,in Macdonald's hands the same subjectmatter is less shocking, more human, andpossessed of a certain humor which Arbus'seemingly dispassionate lens never cap tured. (W)holes central subject is notfreakishness, but rather isolation. Theworld she delineates is full of unexpectedreversals, cataclysmic flip-flops andthings which are exactly the opposite ofwhat they seem. Freaks, therefore, areemblems of isolation and victims of the un¬expected, the embodiment of our worstfears. But since their flaws are knownquantities, they are subject to the sameterror of the unknown, and their conditionis decidely human.As evidenced by her past books of poet¬ry, Amputations (1972), and Transplants(1976), Macdonald is preoccupied with severence, subtraction, reduction of thingsto their component parts, and with tryingto fathom the connections between thoseseemingly disparate parts. In "FrancisBacon (1561 1626; 1910- ), The inventorof Spectacles, Is the Ringmaster", theidentities of the philosopher and the con¬temporary painter merge by virtue oftheir shared name, as though the poet's re ¬medy for isolation is a pair-bonding whichspans four centuries. But what this con¬glomerate Bacon commands is a circus ofself-contained sense organs: All Mouth,All Eye, and All Ear. Each part yearns todo what the other is solely equipped for.For example, the ear wants to sing like itsmother, the mouth:But All Ear, only receptive, made nomore soundThan a windless wind tunnel.So too, the poet only commands parts, ar¬ranges and rearranges them, and seeksconnections between them.Macdonald's subject matter may' seemto lean toward the macabre, but her relent¬less wit and her continual puns deliver the material from morbidity without robbingit of any of its power. Her technique of pun¬ning, as the title illustrates, is central toher notion of the nature of reversals, of appearance being undercut or turned about-face by reality. The humor of many of herimages relies on our own notions of what isludicrous. There is something absurdabout the fat dancer who . . .. . . stands in the lake of her fat,Lean as the center pole in the maintent.And then she is off, pirouettingsharply,Pleating the air with the needle ofHer toe . . .Yet, it is not a cruel portrait, nor is thedancer pathetic. A woman who pleats theair with the needle of her toe is not to bepitied, even if Nureyev ends up in tractionfrom lifting her, as he does in this poem. Itis her isolation which makes her a sadcharacter:And though her public adores andAdorns her with flowers or, sometimes,Emeralds and tourmalines,No one can nibble a kiss.Likewise, many of the poems in(W)holes express a similar tragic isolation. Edvard Munch, whose pain is publicly revealed in his art ("his public secret"),must conceal his love of Grieg's music("his private secret")."No one would notice as heBled through his gloves onto thecanvasThat he hummed "The Violet WhoLoved the Shepherd."And Florence Nightingale, as a means of staving off chaos and disarray, futilely arranges her "parts", straightens the bowson her drawers and the strings of her cor¬selets, because "Death comes from disorder". A man who loves birds is afraid toventure outside because "limbs may fallon you" and the birds may "splat droppings on your head". The fear of disorder,of the unknown or the unexpected, threadsthrough these poems, as does the suffocating isolation of merely living.The second part of (W)holes, a longpoem entitled "Burying the Babies", turnson the same themes. Borrowing from suchdiverse sources as Love and Will, themovie Lifeboat, one of her son's gradeschool compositions, and the letters ofLouisa of Tuscany, Macdonald spins a narrative around the quotations which bindsthe disconnected parts. Elegant and spare,it moves forward in steps of narrative,quotation, narrative, so that What aWoman of 45 Ought to Know seems as richa source as Gertrude Stein's How to WriteThe artifice of this poem is more apparent.Its bones show But because the structureis transparent, it is all the more convincingin its interior logic. As Macdonald is busilyshuffling the parts, her voice is assertivein its lack of certainty:Dehydration, I guess, the holding on isPainful, as the air is painful, and I donot thinkI can let go. It is time.To look at the boxes. To check thebabies.This poem, like the others, is both funnyand desolate, and speaks of the samebrand of despair: the futility of protectingagainst the unknown and the immutabilityof isolation.Harried?

Past thedoorway into the next room a scruffy,jeans-clad student sits cross-legged onthe dusty floor, completely absorbed in azoology text. Around the corner of thenext stack, a familiar face; one of thecollege advisors browsing among bookson skiing. The selection of books atPowell's is as eclectic as its clientelle.With at least half a million volumes,(including the stock of the warehousedowntown on Wabash) this ratherdishevelled place is a paradise for theavid bibliophile.While Powell's prefers to deal inacademic areas, it carries a wide varietyof books beyond including mysteries,science fiction, and children's literature.Particularly strong areas are the majorforeign languages; carrying somewherenear thirty-thousand volumes in Frenchand forty-thousand in German. Thoughnot the best, the fiction selection is pretty well as Ethiopia. This is definitely theplace to come if you're looking for eithermore general histories or somethingmore specific such as Church and Statein Yugoslavia Since 1945.It is easy to spend an afternoon atPowell's just wandering up and down theaisles among the unpacked cartons andunshelved piles of books that flank thestacks. Glass cabinets house some of therarer volumes yet left on open shelvesare such interesting antiques as a 1901edition of George Eliot's complete works.One finds a certain humor in thehodgepodge of fiction that producesseemingly paradoxical but somehowappropriate combinations of books suchas Erica Jong's Fear of Flying next toSamuel Johnson's Journey to the WesternIsles. While you may not find exactlywhat you're looking for in this particularassortment, (loosely arranged inalphabetical order) who are bound to findsomething interesting like a paperbackcopy of The Golden Ass of Apuleius,billed as “one of the world's most ribaldclassics,” or some of Ellen Glasgow'searly work.Powell's is, according to onesalesperson, “known for its messiness,”yet most seem to agree that theadvantages of the incredible selectionand fast turnover more than compensate| for any inconvenience. The prices paidfor books bought (almost anything excepttextbooks unless they're “absolutelycurrent") are reputedly among thehighest in the city. This is a fun place foran extended browse and excellent formaking unexpected discoveries. If you'relucky, you might even find somethingworth taking from the carton of freebooks occasionally lefj outside the door.O'Gara's, 1311 East 57th.Monday-Saturday. 9 a.m.-lO p.m. Sunday2-10The oldest bookstore in Chicago andhome of Lady Jane Grey, the “mosteducated cat in town," O'Gara's is clean,The “most educated cat in Hyde Park1good. The Theology section is currentlyundergoing expansion and some recenthousekeeping has improved thepsychology section. Also notable are thesections of Business History, LiteraryCriticism, Feminist Studies, and thesciences.The shelves housing volumes aboutvarious countries such as England andGermany are numerous enough to bedivided into different historical periods.It seems that nothing, (or very littleanyway) has been excluded in this areaof the store which gives distinct places toScandinavia and the Low Countries as quiet, and very organized. Begun in 1882by the Woodworth family, this large oneroom store houses the ancient and themodern, the trashy and the erudite.While Mr. O'Gara prefers not to taketextbooks because he doesn't want tohave to “put up with boring stuff allyear," O'Gara's will buy “everything" inthe Humanities and Social Sciences.There's always an interesting displayin the windows of this establishment;currently a very rare, 1584 first edition ofan Italian book by one Rafaello Borghiniand a book called Design and Tradition ofthe Japanese Storehouse among others. A case near the counter across from thedoor holds a number of cloth boundclassics which appear to be in excellentcondition. To the left of the door is asmall case devoted to books about pets.Rows of books stock the shelves whichline the entire store and reach all theway to the high ceiling. Several aisles ofshorter stacks extend the length of theroom; everything clearly labeled andeasy to find. O'Gara's never seems to beeither deserted or crowded and althoughthe atmosphere is very businesslike, it isstill a place where some prowling willresult in interesting and absorbingdiscoveries.According to Mr. O'Gara, the store'sgreatest strength in scholarly areas isAmerican History in which they stockthousands of titles. This selection drawsmany collectors from outside Hyde Park.Also large are the psychology andSociology sections. At O'Gara's you willfind a place for law, sports, and poetry aswell as a fairly complete selection ofShakespeare and Elizabethian Drama.You can buy a copy of the Official StarTrek Cooking Manual, (containing suchtantalizing recipes as “Captain Kirk'sfavorite Hungarian Goulash") and moreusual volumes like the Complete GreekCookbook. There is also a shelf of bookson wines.Paperback fiction is arranged indouble-stacked rows covering the backwall. This large selection is a variedmixture containing mostly populareditions of both classics and best sellers.Cloth bound fiction is found under avariety of other categories and prominentEuropean authors such as Stendhal havesmall sections of their own. Mr. O'Garalikes to stock not only those volumespertaining to the scholar's work but also“fun books" and other such “vices of theacademic community." Therefore,although he has a tremendous historydepartment, since “Lots of historiansread Agatha Christie,' he also carries afairly large mystery selection. You canbe pretty sure of finding at leastsomething by any mystery writer youmight be interested in, whether it's RexStout or Ian Flemming. Two shelvesdouble-stacked are devoted exclusively toWesterns, while a low table toward theback holds several rows of science fictionvolumes.One other specialty of O'Gara's is afine selection of Art and Photographybooks usually in beautiful condition. Avolume of fine prints by Julia MargaretCameron is available for one fourth ofthe original price. Biographies of artistsas well as books like Jansen's History ofArt, and Kenneth Clark's Civilization fillan entire aisle. If you collect books oncollecting or would like to look throughold, bound copies of Harper's magazine,this is the place to come.The Phoenix, Reynolds Club basement.Monday Friday; 9:30-8 Saturday, 11:30-5It may take the average phoenix fivehundred years to regenerate itself, butthis one has done it after twelve.Formerly the Student Co-op, The Phoenixis now in a new location across the hall.It is a place definitely worthinvestigating because not only does thisnon profit, student run, establishmentbuy and sell used course books, but italso carries a wide assortment of otherused books, new records and games.This long, somewhat narrow room iswell-lit, open, organized, and yet relaxed.You'll find all kinds of books here,classics and best sellers, and a goodselection of volumes in French. Amongother things, the Phoenix will usuallyhave some books for at least fifty percentof all classes. These books are acquiredthrough students who have sold theirunwanteds and the efforts of the bookmanager who haunts the used bookwarehouses with the course lists for eachquarter. According to manager DebbySwartz, you're likely to find many of thebooks you need for the core courses,particularly since these are the booksstudents tend to get rid of. The coursebooks are now being mixed with the otherbooks in the same areas so if you'relooking for a particular biology text, forexample, you would go to that section and look under the author's name. Or,you can ask the staff — they're quitewilling to help.One unusual thing about The PhoenixBookstore, is that along with books, italso carries records. With a largeselection of Classical, Popular, Blues,Jazz, Folk and Women's Music, theprices here are cheaper than otherneighborhood stores. The Phoenix is alsoable to special order any record you wantat the regular price, in fact they takeabout fifty special orders a week (theseorders take two to three weeks fordelivery).On the shelves against the wall to theleft of the door, is another special featureof the store — its stock of games. Youcan get a number of bookshelf wargames here and choose from a largeselection of “role playing and fantasy"games like “Dungeons and Dragons" or“World of Greyhawk." You'll also find anumber of books and manuals aboutthese games. The Phoenix will becarrying the miniatures that go with thegames as well as the various dice. Youcan also special order any game.Beginning this year, The Phoenix willalso carry paper supplies such as typingpaper, notebook filler, graph paper, pens,and pencils. You'll definitely want tocheck out the lower prices here.As already mentioned, The Phoenix isa non profit establishment, and thereforemost of the earnings go back into thestore. It's a small but well-stocked placeand don't let the faculty membersbrowsing through the game section foolyou — they really are only looking forsomething for their kids.NEWThe Book Center, Harper Court. 9 6— 12 The Chicago Literary Review, September 26, 19801Monday-Saturday. 8:45-5 Sunday.Owner Jack Mosoff has a lot ofinteresting things to say about theimportance of maintaining private,independent bookstores. In the samelocation for fifteen years, he has learnedthe tastes of the large Hyde Parkcommunity and tries to carry thosethings that the people in the area want,not push those books that the chaint bookstores automatically promoteanywhere. The cards placed in the booksand removed at purchase help him tokeep track of those things that people buyso that he can reorder the volumes indemand and weed out those things people; aren't interested in.The Book Center is a fairly smallplace, carrying somewhere between fourand five thousand titles. But although thestock may be limited, it is of a versatilenature. You'll find everything from "howto" books to the classics and psychology.Until now the store has carried mostlypaperbacks but beginning in the fall, itwill carry a full line of cloth boundvolumes. You can special order bookshere; an order usually takes from sevento ten days.The Book Center's mystery section is' ; the best around, stocking very completeI lines of many excellent writers such as! Dorothy Sayers, Georges Simenon, andRaymond Chandler as well as popularfavorites like Agatha Christe. There isalso a very strong section of sciencefiction for the sci-fi buff.Mr. Mosoff likes to make sure that hestocks "the old standards no one wants togive any space to anymore, like TheCount of Monte Christo and Of Mice andMen." He says he carries "good trash,"or "beach reading;" authors like SydneySheldon. There's a section of books classified as reference; a combination ofbooks like guides to plants and nutritionand catalogues of various kinds. Thestore has an adequate selection ofcookbooks, many of the standards suchas Joy of Cooking are in hardback.Books given prominent positions on thefront racks are mostly new and popularbut they must also have some"redeeming value". Thus a more recentnovel might be shelved along the backwall with the rest of the fiction if it is notworthy of the front position. This is thekind of store where you can find a littlebit of everything. Among those subjectsalready mentioned, sections worthy ofnotice are those on Black History andLiterature, Drama and Photography.You're always sure of getting a copy ofThe New York Times here, as well as theChicago papers and The ChristianScience Monitor. If you're struck by adesperate longing for some good verse,the Book Center carries Doctor Seuss.It's an orderly place and while it's not aseccentric as many of the other stores, itis easy to find quickly whether or not thebook you want is in stock.The Seminary Co-operative Bookstore,5757 University. Mon-Thurs., 9:30 6:30,Fri. 9:30-5, Sat., 11-4.While it isn't necessary to comeequipped with a ball of string in order tofind your way out of this labyrinth,before you actually enter you may wantto stop and pick up a copy of the storemap from the shelf near the doorway.You might also want to make sure tobring a watch because for theenthusiastic book-looker, this is yetanother place where one tends to losetrack of time. Housed in roughly fourbasement rooms, the Seminary Co-opcarries somewhere around 32,000 titles inboth the Humanities and Social Sciencesas well as a number of course books andan excellent selection of scholarlyjournals.The first thing you'll see as youdescend the stairs which lead to thisunderground mine are two large casesdisplaying various new titlesrepresentative of the Co-op's stock;things such as The Evolution of CultureIn Animals, and Comperidum of GeneralSociology. "A store like this can onlyexist where there's a big market forserious books," says salesperson KenWissoker, and this store is quite seriousindeed. Especially strong in History,Linguistics, and Theology, theAnthropology, Philosophy and LiteraryCriticism sections are also quiteextensive. One can find all of the OxfordClassical Library here as well as theentire line of Penguin classics. History isdivided into specific sections ofgeographical locations and in some casessubject matter such as "Art History" or"Classical Civilization." One entire shelfis occupied by Marxist Studies. Newtitles are on the low table toward thefront of the store.The store is a cooperative which meansthat it is consumer owned and "exists toserve its membership." By purchasingstock (at ten dollars a share) you canbecome a member and receive severalbenefits. Members get a ten percentdiscount on all books, share whateverprofit the store makes during the year,(last year this was about fifty cents pershare) and may special order any book inprint. Members also have the option tocharge books when then need not be paidfor until the fifteenth of the monthfollowing that in which they werecharged. Whenever you wish to withdrawyour membership you may sell back yourstock for its full original value. The Co opcurrently has somewhere around eightthousand members.Some professors order their class textsthrough the Seminary Co op, particularlythose profs teaching Philosophy,Anthropology, Political Science, and, ofcourse, Theology. The store attempts tomake available those things that peoplewant but are hard to get hold of (forexample, Mircea Eliade's memoirs inFrench). Because of the indications givenby requests for special orders and thehunches of the manager, the SeminaryCo op can stay aware of those works of current importance in the areas that thestore stocks, particularly in the SocialSciences. In a recent weekend, fortycopies of a new book entitled TheStructural Reader were sold. The Co-opis also able to stock many reference andobscure language books that other storeshave no market for.You won't find any "beach reading"here, but you can get a cloth bound copyof several Gertrude Stein books. The newfiction stocked is that which seems to beworthwhile or important. So, while youcan find Joyce Carol Oates's new bookhere and also Truman Capote's, youwon't find much from the best seller list.There is a fairly large Women's Studiesselection as well as full shelves of bookson Gay Studies and Music.The Literary Criticism is divided intotwo sections, books written by or about asingle author go under "specific," andthose about literary types, styles,periods, etc. are put into the sectionmarked "general." The store hasrecently expanded both this section andthe Literature section, and while theselection may seem small in comparisonto some of the other areas, it is acomprehensive, adequate representationof important fiction. Actually, theselection is more extensive than itprobably appears to be at first glancedue to the intricacy and compactness ofthe winding shelving arrangement.The music (or whatever) of WFMTunobtrusively fills the air, but basicallythis is a quiet place. The decor is justbooks, books, books (over forty majorsections) and the clientelle seems to belargely University of Chicago people,although it's known to attract"outsiders." The London Times LiterarySupplement is sold here as well as TheVillage Voice and a number ofspecialized academic journals such asJournal of Caribbean Studies, variousuniversity publishing journals, and leftistpublications such as MarxistPerspectives and Gay Left, a Britishmagazine. The staff is knowledgeable,and as the store's particularidiosyncrasies become familiar, you will jprobably even find a certain pleasure in jjust rambling through the dense,maze-like architecture of the shelves,examining whatever happens to lookinteresting.Stavers, 1301 east 57th. Mon.-Fri. 10-10, ISat. 10:30-6, Sun. 12-6.This is a place with a unique andunchanging character. You can get anEnglish-Russian Physics dictionary here jor a Tintin comic book but you won't find janything second rate in this small and peaceful store.Don't let the plastic wrapping inhibityou from taking a good look at anythingyou might be interested in. OwnerHelaine Staver wants it to be clear thatyou can open anything. The store carriesmostly titles in the Humanities and theSocial Sciences, but you'll find afirst-rate, carefully stocked mathdepartment which contains some moreobscure, hard to get texts. Stavers hasone of the best juvenile sections in thearea with some beautiful picture booksand imported comic books. There is asection devoted to Americana with someintriguing books about Native Americansand the Old West. A small mysterysection carries, among other things, thePenguin Crime Series. The wall of fictionstocks a small but interesting selection ofdurable paperbacks. You can be sure offinding most of the important classics.An extensive selection of books aboutfilms and film scripts themselves ishoused on one low shelf, for the most partolder movies. In fact you'll rarely findanything extremely recent here unlessit's a particularly scholarly work. Thestore stocks the Loeb Classical Libraryand other collections like the CambridgeMedival History. The large classicssection is organized by subject so thatliterature and histories are foundtogether in the appropriate section. Thismakes for interesting browsing. Booksrelating to various countries areorganized in a similar way so that under"Russia" one might find a book aboutStalin's regime and a collection ofcritical essays on the work ofDostoyevsky.One unusual area of Staver's is it's fineselection of paperback art books. It isprobably the only store in the area tocarry a full line of Dover books. A largegroup of other glossy paperbacks coversa wide range of topics from DaVinci toPersian Miniatures to Mondrian. A stereoprovides quiet music and the trafficoutside can barely be heard. Thedownstairs location contributes to theremoved from-the street atmosphere.The Times Literary Supplement and theNew York Review of Books, as well asthe daily London Times, are always onsale.The University BookstoreA place that probably everyone oncampus becomes quite familiar with, theUniversity Bookstore is, of course, morethan a textbook supplier. A lot ofremodeling has been going on here andalthough much of it will be completed bythe beginning of the fall quarter, a fewsections will still be cramped.continued on pg. 19Abbie Hoffman autographing books at the Harper Court Bookstore in 1967.The Chicago Literary Review, September 26, 1980—13The Universityof ChicagoPlleaiumMuhicumMotet ChoirryiubitimsJkonA&j lltf 4n<ugh 'W&httckj io,hL&inqian MaJ! ~ 5S& $, Urwunf<£}/^or An CaJL ; 153 • lci3fo&reu 5M±JL- *W' £ fo* 12;ir £ L'ifI *Evsyone must ri'Aud^icJu r "NWelcomeUniversity of ChicagoVirA_ % *» •« «»o □BLP)Ci 183u_1QivJVLlif. 611b'j escapeU of C Outing ClubFall CalendarIndian/' Duties Hike.

Chile is acountry whose economic life is, like that ofmost other Latin American nations, domi¬nated by large North American corpora¬tions; thus, celebration seemed in order in !the Autumn of 1970 when the election of Dr. 'Salvador Allende, a socialist, as president |held out some promise that Chile might |embark on the long and difficult road to |self-determination. But the rejoicing con¬cealed what many knew to be serious flaws jin Allende's Popular Unity coalition. A imotley assemblage of socialists, commu- inists, and other assorted progressives, its jconstituents differed on as many things asthey agreed. They lacked a strong politicalmandate and faced a hostile and reaction¬ary congress, a somewhat languid trade junion movement and the American cor¬porations.Most initiatives by the Allende government fell prey to incursions from hostilepolitical and economic quarters, not theleast of which were covert efforts by theCIA, International Telephone and Tele¬graph and Henry Kissinger to "destabi¬lise" the political and economic reconstruction of Chile. On September 11, 1973, abloody military coup installed General Au-gusto Pinochet as president, leaving Allende murdered and three years of work inshambles.The ensuing wave of repression was oneof the most brutal in the world's recent history. Thousands of Chilean dissidents ofevery kind — feminists, communists, socialists and trade union leaders — were ar¬rested, tortured and killed. As Pinochet jmopped up political opposition he turnedthe economy over to a coterie of conserva¬tive economists who had earned their jstripes at the University of Chicago under jmonetarist avatars Milton Friedman andArnold Harberger. Their program hingedon the enticement of big foreign capital,and Pinochet's decimation of the trade |union movement was to deliver the prostrate labor force which would make investment in Chile attractive. But Pinochet was not satisfied withmerely annihilating domestic opposition.Manifesting a paranoia characteristic ofdespotism, he set about eliminating exiledpolitical leaders as well. In a series of macabre anniversary celebrations for thejunta, Pinochet's secret police force,DINA, carried out assassination attemptson prominent opponents of the right wingregime somewhere in the world each September following the coup. In Septemberof 1974, liberal Chilean general CarlosPrats and his wife Sofia Prats were mur¬dered in Argentina, and a year later Christian Democratic leader Bernardo Leightonwas seriously injured in an assassinationattempt in Italy.On September 21, 1976, DINA brought itsitinerant death squad to the streets of theUnited States. That morning Orlando Letelier, former Allende cabinet ministerand Chilean Ambassador to the UnitedStates was driving to work at Washington's Institute for Policy Studies. Seatednext to him was his friend and colleague atIPS Ronni Moffit. In the back seat wasMoffit's husband Michael Moffit, an econ¬omist who was working on a pamphlet withLetelier. As they made their way downEmbassy Row a Cuban nationalist working for DINA, riding in a car not far be¬hind, detonated a bomb which had beenplaced under Letelier's seat. The blast toreLetelier's legs off, killing him almost instantly. A piece of shrapnel killed RonniMoffit. Michael Moffit escaped with minorinjuries.The assassinations made headlines allover the world and shocked the Washington diplomatic community. But it was onlyafter two years of inexplicable delays thatAmerican born Michael Vernon Townley,a DINA agent with a history of CIA connec¬tions, was identified as the head of the assassination team and extradited to theUnited States. Agreeing to turn state's evidence, Townley pleaded guilty and wasgiven a light sentence in exchange for histestimony which led to conspiracy convic¬tions of two right wing Cuban nationalistswho had helped Townley plot the murdersand a perjury conviction of a third. VirgilioPaz and Jose Suarez, who had actually helped carry out the assassination, werenot caught.Assassinatin on Embassy Row by JohnDinges and Saul Landau relates the wholemonstrous story for the first time, fromj the planning and execution to the subsequent cover-up and trial, in it we are takenthrough the nether worlds of the CIA,! DINA and the Cuban nationalist terror orj ganizations who regularly assist DINA; with "operations" in the United States,i The report is based on an investigationwhich was conducted independently of thej Justice Department's. The amount of ae| tailed information that the authors havej amassed is staggering. They have wovenhundreds of hours of tedious trial testimony and information from undisclosedj sources into a lively and riveting narrative. The authors' proximity to the eventsthemselves furnished them with the knowledge, sensitivity and sources which thegovernment lacked. Landau was a friend1 and associate of Letelier and Ronni Moffitat IPS and Dinges a well-connected correspondent for the Washington Post in Chileat the time of the assassinations. The factthat the government's investigation saw fitto ignore many of the important and prom¬ising leads with which the I PA researchersj provided them makes the publication ofI this report all the more significant.The jacket blurb's claim that the book| "reads like fiction" is entirely justified. In¬deed, reading it coufd be as enjoyable asany spy thriller were it nor for the fact thatthe story is all too true. Like a good novel,it is replete with fervid dialogue and extensive character development. Sadly, someof the latter is more perplexing than illu¬minating. In profiling Orlando Letelier,they alternate between efforts at makinghim out to be bigger-than-life and tableauswhich highlighted his human shortcomings. We see a man who, for all his socialistideals, held a sexual double standard whenit came to extra marital affairs and whohad led the life of a professional economistand policy maker whose career had actually demanded little heroism from himprior to his imprisonment by Pinochet. Efi forts to describe Michael Vernon Townley,leader of the assassination team, also left j me a bit cold. Townley was an Americanj expatriate who was working for DINA, ahired murderer who routinely carried outorders to kill. The authors’ attempts to un-| derstand him almost seemed an attempt tomake his behavior reasonable, even if onlyin accordance with its own demented logic,j It reminded me of Hannah Arendt's at; tempt to understand Adolph Eichmann.! Some readers may find this an enlightenj ing intellectual or moral exercise, but fori me it is a bit much.More attention should have been devotedto Ronni Moffit. Because she was not thetarget of the assassins, she is not givenenough credit for her important contribu¬tions and for the risks that she took. Moffitwas, until shortly before the bombing, asecretary at IPS and had just been appointed its fundraiser. I suspect that if theunintended victim has been a high statusmale, more copy would have been devotedi to her both in this book as well as in otheraccounts of the murders.Dinges and Landau spend as much of thebook on the aftermath of the killings as onthe plot leading up to them, and for goodreason. What happened after the assassi-| nations was as revealing as what had comebefore. Although the information needed toissue indictments was already in the handsof one government agency or another atthe time of the killings, no action wastaken for two years. The lethargic federalprobe which culminated finally in the trialof the three Cubans encountered more"unusual obstacles" than can be explainedas bureaucratic snafus. Most noteworthyhere was the role of George Bush, thendirector of the CIA, who withheld knowl¬edge he had about the presence of DINAagents in the United States at the time ofthe bombing. The hack phrase "obstruc¬tion of justice" springs readily to mind inconnection with Bush's behavior.The book's greatest strengths are that itdraws connections between bits of evi¬dence eschewed by other accounts, andthat it reminds us of the large measure ofjustice remaining to be done. So far, onlypart of the hit squad has been brought totrial. Perhaps because of the informationmade public in this book, more action willbe taken.The Chicago Literary Review, September 26, 1980—15HP Professional Calculators.Because the most critical timeinyour professional careeris right nowLSPOSIT--RIC Ask any professional about Hewlett-Packard calculators.

Life After Dark"The whole trouble started with a party.People were dreaming that they werehungry, but hungry inside; they were notunderstood and the police broke it up."— RoheimPeople say he is unproductive, profli¬gate, wasting his time for God knows-whatfulfillments; even he can't say exactlywhat it is that causes him — at ten thirtyevery evening — to shower, change, waikto his car, every night, no matter what hisinvolvements, obligations, goals, plans forthe future. He neglects them all, wants tobecome a blank tablet upon which will beinscribed this or that person's instant, vi¬sceral reaction.As he walks to his car, the teen-agedgirls across the street say something. Hecan’t hear them. Finally, when his engineis running, he hears one yell, "She wants tomarry you!" He smiles, looks in the rear¬view mirror.Driving past rows of tenements, hethinks of that scene in Taxi Driver: thestreet is steamy and voluptuous, and fromnowhere a ganc of kids appears, running inslow motion towards the car, yelling obscenifies muted by the rolled-up windows;an egg splats against the windshield, andthen whoosh! the world is blurred as waterfrom a fire hydrant crashes the wind¬shield, then falls like a curtain.A woman is standing at a stoplight. Hecatches her eye for an instant. She reminds him of someone. He rememberswhite sheets, a bright room at dawn, manyyears ago opening his eyes for the firsttime to someone lying next to him; he remembers the curious finality of it as hethought," It's done." Now, tonight, heknows that there is always something to bediscovered, around the corner, down thecorridor. He knows this.He parks the car. A group of teen agedguys is in front of a building. He thinks ofthe taxi driver again: "You talking tome?" He imagines his car surrounded byglittering slivers of glass, his windowssmashed, tires slit. He gets out of the car.He locks the door.He cuts through a dark alley, turns acorner into a long corridor at the end ofwhich a woman is in cage taking money.He pays her. As he walks up the stairs, theinsistent low bass notes slowly becomefleshed out with music. He walks throughthe doorway.A face flashes before him."Do you like to dance?" it asks."Yes," he replies.

A large portion of one roomhouses what might be the most excitingand complete selection of fiction in thecity. Something by almost any author onecan think of is shelved here and, in fact,this collection of fiction (both hard andsoft bound) is so extensive that any briefdescription of it must be superficial.From classics to current novelists, theU.C. bookstore carries five differentpaperback editions of Anna Kareninaalone, and a representative selection ofIris Murdoch's work which doesn't seem The University of Chicago Bookstoreto be so readily available elsewhere. It isa tremendous collection of fine books(with a few bits of trash hidden amongthe rest) and it is important to add thatthis selection covers a very widegeographical territory. The poetrysection, likewise, offers an extensivechoice of major and not so major poets ina variety of editions.The Psychiatry section housed all along the north wall is the other major strongarea of this store, also worth takingparticular notice of are the Dance, Musicand Literary Criticism departments. Theselection of reference books, althoughtemporarily condensed during theconstruction, is exceedingly valuable tothe student. Composed of both basics likeTurabian and Fowler as well as volumesused in more specific studies, themanagement recognizes the importanceof maintaining this area of stock. Thebookstore has a good relationship withthe University Press and carries most, ifnot all, of the books that the presspublishes. The History and Medicaldepartments are soon to be expanded.A glance at the numerous tablesholding newly published work makes itclear that this is a place that keeps upwith the currently published work inmajor academic fields as well as avariety of popular fields such as runningmanuals (which, by the way, aren'tselling like they used to) and cookbooks.Most major recent publications seem tofind their way to these tables whetherthey are money-makers or not. The storecarries almost anything for which thereis some kind of demand (except astrologyor gothics) and is willing to special orderany book "in the world."The Draft Story continued from pg. 7that they're more likely to end up ascombat casualties. This was certainlytrue in Vietnam, where blacks werecombat casualties in numbers about fourtimes their proportion in the UnitedStates population.As for women, the lesbian incident wasan interesting one. I found it reallyremarkable in that it appeared in thenewspapers in the same week as a reportwhich stated that female recruits in theirfirst term in the military are leaving theservice, in numbers about fifty-one percent, without finishing their first terms.Other sources in the army command,although they weren't willing to bequoted directly and not willing to givenumbers, said they thought a lot of thosewomen left because of sexualharrassment. I've seen statistics on rapeof military women by military men, andit's much higher than civilian rapefigures, which are high enough. On top ofthis, we're treated to the spectacle ofmilitary women in California having tointroduce testimony as to theirresponsiveness to heterosexualintercourse to prove that they are fit formilitary service. Which suggests whatmilitary service is expected to be forwomen.The matter of gay people in themilitary is a very serious issue, for anumber of reasons. One is that beinghomosexual — and that doesn'tnecessarily mean having committedhomosexual acts, but being, or having•ever been, homosexual — is grounds fordischarge from the armed forces.Committing a homosexual act can begrounds for a less-than-honorabledischarge. In addition, it sometimesserves as the grounds for considerablephysical violence. It can be downrightdangerous, particularly on shipboard.Particularly in the Marine Corps and insome branches of the Army. Beingheterosexual, of course, is not necessarilyprotection against this. Every now andthen there are witch hunts, very similarfrom those in the fifties, in which oneperson is arrested as homosexual and isasked to name everyone he knows who is,or who he thinks might be, homosexual.In the Navy particularly, as witnessed bythis incident in California, it happens allthe time. It happens very frequently tomen in the military, and only recentlyhas it happened to women. A lot ofhomosexuals, however, have troubledealing with the fact that the exemptionfrom the military one can get as ahomosexual comes under "medicalunfitness". It's an army regulation, and it's essentially one of the things whichcan make you flunk your physical. A lotof gay people believe on principal thathomosexuality is not a sickness, andtherefore on principal don't like the ideaof putting it forth as if it were. It's anawkward position to put themselves into,because I do believe very strongly that agay person is definitely better off notbeing in the armed forces, regardless ofthe grounds on which he or she gets out.Question: Can you tell the story you told| before the gay man who had such terriblej trouble convincing his draft board that hej was gay?Neudel: Oh, yes, that was during thei Vietnam War. It involved a young manI who was homosexual and who didn't; want to go into the army for a number ofI reasons. He figures the way to do it was| to be quite direct about the whole thing,; so when it was time to fill out all of hisj forms he put down that he washomosexual. His draft board indicatedthat it didn't believe him, so he had apsychiatrist write a letter and essentiallysay the same thing. But his draft boardstill didn't believe him. So finally, insheer frustration and since his inductionorder was right around the corner, hehad photographs taken of himself withanother guy in flagrante delicto, which hemailed into his draft board. He got his4 F discharge, and very shortlythereafter he was indicted for sendingobscene material through the mail. Themoral of the story, of course, if that ifyou're going to do something like that,hand deliver it.Question: What about the military'smethods of recruiting?Neudel: I used to do legal aid work in aPuerto Rican neighborhood, and therewas a recruiter right down the blockfrom me. He did all of his recruiting inSpanish, and he didn't even know if anyof these young men spoke any English;he never bothered to find out. But hepromised them all sorts of fancytechnical specialties which one could getinto only by passing tests in English!And unfortunately, if they flunked thetests, which they very frequently did,they were still in the army, and theynaturally ended up in combat infantry,it's a common ploy. I could go on forhours and hours about recruitingscandals. Every year there's a scandalabout it and Congress investigates and abunch of people get court marshalled andtwo or three offices in one city get shutdown for awhile. After there's a fuss,things quiet down, but a year later we gothrough the same thing with a new I branch, a new city, and anotherCongressional committee. Nothing cleansj up the basic problem, which is that,given the rate of pay in the military, the■ only way to get recruits is by lying. Mostrecruiters operate the same way as used; car salesmen, and should be given thesame degree of trust.Question: Finally, what would youradvice be for those who haven'tregistered, taking into consideration thedifferent types of non registrants thereare and the fact that your advice will| have to be rather generalized?Neudel: First, to those who have publiclystated that they aren't going to register,the strongest advice I can give is to tell| them to get in touch with a support groupof some kind. Publicly resisting authorityj is scarey. It's difficult even for peoplewho have spent twenty or thirty years oftheir lives making hard, difficult, serious,life-long decisions. For eighteen-ornineteen-year olds, making a decisionabout registration will very likely bemaking the first important decisionthey've ever had to make. Nobody shouldhave to make such a decision in isolation,in a vacuum. There are support groupsout there, there are a lot of people in thesame situation, and so nobody has to dothis alone. At Midwest Committee forMilitary Counseling, and at a number ofother organizations around Chicago,we're available to talk with you and toput you in touch with other people in thesame situation. We'd love to hear fromyou.For those who have decided to lie lowand just see what happens, I want toemphasize a few things. Although it's asmall risk, there is an element of risk inchoosing to "sleep through registration."As I said earlier, I think it’s likely thatsuch a person will get a second andperhaps even a third chance, but there'sno guaranteeing that. There's noguaranteeing that the law enforcementmachinery won't at some point somehowbecome irrationally vindictive and justsort of chew up everything in its reach.And anyone who has chosen not toregister and not to publicize that decisionin hope of avoiding any'risk is making abad bet and ought to probably go andregister. Anyone who is willing to livewith that element of risk and decide whatto do in the event that things do getdifficult, more power to you. If any suchperson wants to call us at MidwestCommittee for advice, we always keepthings confidential. Under nocircumstances would anybody's name berevealed.The Chicago Literary Review, September 26, 1980—19confidence, to:BANKofAIAn Equal8*«IK Of AMtntCA NT4SA WE** 8f R f 01 B&i- tISfeSiS, t% ■Where your career goes in the future hasto do with where it begins righstart out at the world’s leading banway ahead of the game.It isn’t a game at all, of course.

As a child, I hadasked my father if there was anything atall interesting west of the Hudson Riverand he responded by saying that no one re¬ally knew what was on the far side of theGeorge Washington Bridge, but if therewas anything of note out there we certainlywould have heard about it. Whatevermight be there, he said, could not be as in¬teresting as, say, downtown Brooklyn onColumbus Day. So, I came to Chicagothinking that it would be a nice place to getan education, but a lousy place to visit.My desire to be amused in Chicago, Isoon found out, was complicated by an¬other factor: the University refused toview itself as social director to a tribe ofbored, near aboriginal undergraduates.This is not to say that the campus wasn'talive with all manner of things to do. It isto say that no officer of the University feltthat the school had an obligation to amuseand entertain its students. The problemwith a paternalistic government, we aretold by John Stuart Mill, is that by takingthe role of benevolent parent, it robs theJoel Snyder, Associate Professor on theCommittee on Art and Design, has recently been named Chairman of the committeeon General Studies in the Humanities. citizenry of the capacity to govern itself.And the problem with a university thatprovides entertainment and a structuredsocial life for its students is that it robsthem of ability to engage the world. Inorder to find entertainment, the worldmust first be entertained.In those days, undergraduate men werehoused in Burton-Judson (sophisticatedsecond, third and fourth year studentslived in apartments) and undergraduatewomen lived in Kelly Foster-Green and, ifmemory serves, in Gates Blake. Therewas a strict policy of gender separation en¬forced by the University that extended tothe outright ban upon entertaining personsof the other (opposing?) gender in one'sroom. There was some talk of gender mix¬ing in the fraternities, but most of us as¬sumed that anyone who belonged to a fra¬ternity would, ipso facto, fail to know howto take advantage of such freedom. At anyrate, socializing was necessarily commu¬nal under the regulations that existed, andthis, by itself, provided enough incentive tolook around for places to visit and things todo. I have always liked to walk alot, and onone of my earliest strolls through the Bur¬ton-Judson neighborhood I found a bar at63rd and Cottage Grove called McKie's. In¬cidentally, 63rd and Cottage Grove wasthen styled "Sin Corner" by the downtowntabloids — THE sin being the aforemen¬tioned gender mixing. On Thursday, Fri¬day and Saturday evenings, McKie's fea¬tured jazz. But not just jazz. Each week anew group would perform on an elevatedstage in back of the bar. The performersincluded Billie Holliday, Miles Davis, JohnColtrane, Thelonius Munk and Blues Mitchell. No second raters ever appeared atMcKie's. The cost of admission was theprice of drinks — which I usually limited totwo bottles of beer at a dollar each. I figured that McKie's couldn't be the onlyplace around that had such an incredible hold on jazz performers and by keepingmy eyes opened, I found that there was an¬other place, the Sutherland Lounge, at 47thand Drexel that accommodated smallgroups as well as big bands like the CountBasie and the Duke Ellington Bands. TheSutherland was more expensive thanMcKie's; it had a two dollar cover chargeand a one dollar minimum drink charge.Shortly after finding the Sutherland, Ifound the Regal Theater (which, I seem torecall, was at 45th and Lake Park) thathad the best blues and rock that l haveever heard. It was quite a world that l wasin. During the week I would take my lumpsin class from Richard McKeon and NedRosenheim and Hans Morganthau and onweekends I would lift my spirits with acouple of dollar's worth of spirits and someinspired music.By the winter quarter of my first year, Ihad made some other discoveries. The Chi¬cago Symphony Orchestra, reputed to bebetter than the New York Philharmonic,and led by Fritz Reiner, had late matineeperformances that cost $1.25 for students.For the same $1.25, the CSO often threw ina soloist. These included Nathan Milstein,Isaac Stern, Dietrich Fisher Dieskau, NewYork's own Leonard Bernstein and Sviatoslav Richter. My CSO afternoons weresensational. I would take the 1C to VanBuren, walk over to the Art Institute andsample the art. I found that the Art Insti¬tute had one of the great print collectionsin the world because it had Harold Joa¬chim, the greatest print curator in thecountry, if not the world. To my astonish¬ment, I learned that the Art Institute actually wanted people to look at its prints. So,I would walk into the print room, ask, say,tor the Durer holdings, and sit for an hourwith a fistful of majestic prints. Then Iwould look at some of the marvelous hold¬ings in photography, assembled by HughEdwards, slide past El Greco and Monet on my way out and hop across the street tohear Reiner et al. As far as I have everbeen able to determine, there is no othercity in the world that provides such easyaccess to such major visual and auditoryfeasts.By the spring quarter, I reasoned that ifall this was available to me just by walkingor getting onto a train, there must be othertreasures available at some slightlygreater expenditure of effort. And, ofcourse, there was. There was, and is, theCook County forest preserve system thatincludes Palos Park. I used to horsebackride through Palos on Sunday morningsand I found out later that horseback ridingthrough a snow covered forest is hard tobeat, especially when the only other livingthings around are foxes, beaver and deer.And I found the Brookfield Zoo that is oneof the best zoos in the country and is openevery day of the year.My last discovery was the neighborhoods of Chicago. Chicago is a city of turfs— ethnic communities that continue to beexotic in their own ways. The late MayorDaley's Bridgeport-Canaryville neighbor¬hood is about fifteen minutes from campusand it adjoins a wonderful Lithuanian com¬munity that is loaded with wonderfulchurches and restaurants. Over my eightyears as an undergraduate and graduatestudent, I got to know many of Chicago'sneighborhoods and I continue to visitthem.It came as quite a shock to me, about tenyears after coming here, that l had startedto refer to myself, in public, as a Chicagoan. I had made myself into a Chicagoan.This city pulsates with activity. UnlikeNew York, it does not hawk its wares. Itmust be probed and discovered. Stayingawake in Chicago is easy to do. The realtrick is to falling asleep. Unfortunately,many visitors to the city have masteredthat trick to perfection.the grey city journal—Friday, September 26, 1980— 5rClassicalby Peter T. DanielsIn proper University of Chicago fashion,let us begin with the cerebral and proceedto the practical: the faculty of the MusicDepartment is a remarkable one. TheChairman, Philip Gossett, is an editor ofthe project to publish the works of Giu¬seppe Verdi in a scholarly critical edition— a joint venture of the University of Chi¬cago Press and Verdi's original publisherin Italy, Ricordi. Robert Marshall is a con¬tributor to the new edition of the works ofJ. S. Bach. Howard M. Brown is one of themost distinguished musicologists in theworld, specializing in Renaissance music.Editions by all of them have been per¬formed in Chicago, including at the LyricOpera. Rose Subotnick investigates thephilosophy of music. Three distinguishedcomposers work here: Easley Black¬wood, Shulamit Ran, and Ralph Shapey.And numerous fine performers are asso¬ciated with the University, as both teach¬ers and conductors. And whom do theyteach and conduct? You to whom this list the remodeled Mandel Hall. The musicwill be Beethoven's, featuring the Mass inC and the Fifth Symphony. The Orchestraordinarily performs once a quarter (andvery well, too), but plans are up in the airbecause Mandel Hall is not available.Nonetheless, its conductor, Barbara Schu¬bert, is planning to present works by threetwentieth-century masters, Nielsen, Stra¬vinsky, and Britten, among others,through the year. She urges all instrumen¬talists to come to the auditions, as all oldOrchestra members will be reheard, andthere's no telling what instruments will bein special demand. No great proficiency isrequired, since the Symphony exists forthe purpose of giving experience and plea¬sure to both players and audience. Re¬hearsals are Wednesday evenings.A second, smaller instrumental ensem¬ble is the Chamber Orchestra, led byJeanne Schaefer. While this is primarily astring orchestra, the Fall quarter programincludes Beethoven's First Symphony, re¬quiring a full complement of woodwindplayers. Auditions for this group are some¬what more stringent — applicants are ex- Optionsporary music — often featuring the latestworks of its director — leavened with oneof the^eminal classics (Webern is a favorite); rare indeed are the opportunities tohear the newest music such as are afford¬ed by the CCP. Once a year they give aconcert sponsored by the Fromm Founda¬tion. Paul Fromm is a wealthy Chicagoanwho has devoted his fortune to the cause ofcontemporary music, commissioningcountless works and, equally important,seeing that they get performed. He is especially fortunate in the resources availablein the CCP, which includes any number oflocally and nationally prominent perform¬ers. Admission to CCP concerts is usuallywithout charge but by ticket that must beobtained in advance. Watch for their post¬ers. Fromm also underwrites perfor¬mances of music by the Department's stu¬dent composers.Another professional concert series thatdoesn't cost anything is the weekly organlecture-demonstrations given by the Uni¬versity Organist, Edward Mondello, inRockefeller Chapel on Tuesdays at lunch¬time. Typically, one work will be per- offers from small groups to perform forlunch-hour crowds. This year performersfrom outside the University will be heard,as well as groups giving early music andsome folk music.The finest in professional chambermusic is also available at the University ofChicago. The Music Department'sChamber Music Series this year bringstwo string quartets, one pianist, one flutist,and one unspecified ensemble. England'sGabrieli Quartet will perform Mozart,Beethoven, and what seems to be the localpremiere of Britten's Third Quartet. TheNew York Quartet, formed in 1976 at Juil-liard, brings Haydn, Ravel, and Bartok'sFifth. Peter Serkin, in his first appearancehere in five years, and Paula Robison(with Ruth Laredo) have not yet an¬nounced their programs. ''Music fromMarlboro'' will send us a group of theiroutstanding young performers who havebeen working together under the tutelageof a master chamber player, such as Ru¬dolf Serkin; sometimes one of these seniorpersonnel joins the group. Details will beavailable later, from Zita Cogan at the I|IA Special Piece for Non-Punkers,Anti-Rockers, and Disco-Hatersof opportunities is addressed.First: for individual study, the MusicDepartment administers the Swift MusicStipend, which is available to any musicmajor (graduate or undergraduate) or anyother student who participates in a Depart¬ment-sponsored performing organization.Applicants must audition for the StipendCommittee, and competition is intense.The stipend pays for up to 50% of the costof private lessons, either voice or instru¬ment.There are practice rooms now in theReynolds Club Basement, and they willshortly move to the Department's newhome in Goodspeed Hall (59th and Ellis).Second: groups encouraging studentparticipation: If you can sing, even a little,try out for the University Chorus. Thisyear the Chorus welcomes a new director,Rodney Wynkoop, who comes to us fromYale, succeeding the inimitable JamesMack. The tryouts, he emphasizes, are in¬tended not to weed out incompetents but tolet him know what he has to work with. Hehas planned an ambitious schedule, including two appearances in the Fall quarter: aprogram of "Music on the Death of aFriend," in November, and a Service ofLessons and Carols, in December. Re¬hearsals are Tuesday evenings, 7:30 to10:00.These concerts will be given in associa¬tion with the Choir of Rockefeller Chapel,where Mr. Wynkoop is also the new Music/ Director. The Choir is a small professionalorganization that provides the music forSunday morning services at the Chapel(non-denominational); they are also sche¬duled for major concerts, including the an¬nual Messiah performances that continuedfor so many years under the retired Direc¬tor, Richard Vikstrom. The Choir re¬hearses Wednesdays, also 7:30 to 10:00.The Chorus will also join the UniversitySymphony Orchestra, in February, in agala concert celebrating the reopening of pected to perform either a sonata or a con¬certo part and to sight-read — but there isa payoff, in that professional coaches workwith the violin and cello sections at re¬hearsals; the effect is of group lessons ormaster classes.Third: old and new music: Howard M.Brown is the director of the Collegium Mu-sicum, a small group of instrumentalists,vocal soloists, and choristers, who special¬ize in music of the early Baroque and be¬fore. They generally appear twice aquarter, in one small-scale concert (fea¬turing solo singers and viol or recorderconsorts) and one larger one, with majorchoral works. Specialists in various ar¬cane instruments, and regular singers, areneeded.The New Music Ensemble, also led byI Barbara Schubert, presents concerts ofcontemporary classics (with John Cagerepresenting about the midpoint of therange of avant-gardism there represent¬ed) performed by the same sort of peoplewho participate in the other organizationsmentioned.Audition information and more on sche¬duling and repertoire of the above organi¬zations will be available at the Music De¬partment (temporarily housed inLexington Hall, on the east side of Univer¬sity Avenue between 58th and 59th Streets;telephone 753-2613). It is noteworthy thatthese are not exclusively student organiza¬tions; faculty, staff, and other communityresidents are welcome to participate aswell. These Department activities repre¬sent an important link between the Univer¬sity and its neighbors.To return to new music performances,we now come to the first professional orga¬nization we can cite, the ContemporaryChamber Players, directed by Ralph Sha¬pey. This ensemble, heard approximatelyonce a quarter in the University and fre¬quently on tour elsewhere in the country,specializes in the left wing of contem-6 Friday, September 26, 1980—the grey city journal formed (with the spectators clusteredaround the organ console) and discussed,with emphasis on the unique qualities ofthe organ, a classic American-style instru¬ment built by E. M. Skinner in the late1920's, which was remodeled a few yearsago into something approximating a Ba¬roque one. Mr. Mondello also performs formal recitals on evenings during the year.This season we will be fortunate, as well,to have a visit from the premier French or¬ganist, Marie Claire Alain.Also at Rockefeller Chapel — but impossible to miss anywhere in the area — is theCarillon housed in the Rockefeller ChapelTower. It is played Wednesdays at lunch¬time, and for Sunday services and Univer¬sity special events. Whenever the bells, thesecond largest set in the world, are beingplayed, the carilloneur's room is open tothe public. (It's near the top of the tower,which is a lot higher than the tremendously high nave roof lets it appear.) RobertLodine, the Carilloneur, is indisposed dueto an accident; his assistant, Wylie Craw¬ford, continues the performances.There's another set of bells on campus,in Mitchell Tower atop the Reynolds Clubat the 57th Street corner. This is one of thehandful of peals on this continent adaptedfor the ancient English mathematical rec¬reation of Change Ringing, celebrated inDorothy Sayers' The Nine Tailors. Whenthe ringers are ringing, Saturdays atlunchtime and Monday evenings, they wel¬come the curious and the intrigued, andoffer the opportunity of joining them in try¬ing to produce all the premutations ofseven tones (at one ringer per bell). It'snot music, but it's fascinating (andnoisy).Downstairs in the Reynolds Club NorthLounge, there will be free chamber-musicconcerts every Thursday at 12:15. Theseprograms are coordinated by BarbaraSchubert, and while the schedule for Fallis pretty much filled in, she welcomes Music Department. The cost of the seriesticket — $15 (student), $22 (faculty/staff),$25 (others) is minuscule. There are per¬haps 300 series tickets still available. (Ifthe series are fully subscribed, there willbe no further single seats for sale.)Ms. Cogan is also planning a specialchamber series to be given in the new,smaller hall within Goodspeed Hall. Shewelcomes suggestions concerning talentedyoung professionals who might be invitedto appear here.An additional form of audience partici¬pation will be available this year: Mr.Wynkoop is planning occasional "singalong" presentations, open to anyone without any preparation at all; the works willbe the Requiem, by Faure and Brahmsand Haydn's Creation. The annual Christ¬mastime Do It-Yourself Messiah in Or¬chestra Hall is lots of fun (3000 singers!)and free with the ticket you write in for.Margaret Hillis conducts.Still another form of audience participation involves humming hit tunes — whichyou can do after attending one of theBlackfriars' performances of classicBroadway musicals. These tend to be highon enthusiasm, middling on talent (withsome delightful exceptions), and low onbudget; the stretching of the imaginationthis last requires certainly contributes tothe fun of their presentations. Avoid, bythe way, the touring musicals — even RexHarrison in My Fair Lady, due this year —that play the Arie Crown Theater. Thereis not one good seat in the place, whichcould be a hangar for C-5A's. And DC-10's.The Blackfriars also give satiric shows atorientation time (and other suitable occasions during the year), and are always onthe lookout for new participants and newscripts. This is a tradition that goes back tothe turn of the century, when the then all¬male group would bring in real Broadwayproduction people to put on extravaganzas.-This provides a graceful opportunity tosegue into non-University local groups:the Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Companyprovides one or two production of shows ayear by their eponym bearers. They haveat times been the finest G&S performancesI've ever seen. They usually are lookingfor chorus members in the Fall for Winterappearances.Often appearing at International Houseis the Chicago Ensemble, a recently-formed odd combination of artists whogive some less frequently heard works.The Chicago Chamber Orchestra givesseveral concerts a year, all free, in the au¬ditorium of the Museum of Science and In¬dustry. They play all over the city, andperform Handel's complete Water Musicsomewhere in Chicago every year. Musicof the Baroque is a highly-acclaimedchoral and orchestral ensemble providingBach, Handel, and their contemporaries ina series duplicated on the North and SouthSides of the city.Before coming to Chicago's Big Two pro¬fessional organizations, I should mentionsome other well-received groups: the Chi¬cago Chamber Choir and William FerrisChorale and the Fine Arts Quartet all haveconcert series. There are free concerts atthe Public Library Cultural Center, theDame Myra Hess Memorial series, everyWednesday at lunchtime. This, of course,barely scratches the surface.The Lyric Opera of Chicago is this city'sanswer to the Metropolitan. Well, SanFrancisco. Or, more like Santa Fe. It's likethe Met in sometimes relying on big-namestars like the ubiquitous, but fading, Lu¬ciano Pavarotti or, more happily, AlfredoKraus, Jon Vickers, Placido Domingo, Ju¬dith Blegen, and Carol Neblett to carry theshow. It's like San Francisco — well, be¬cause opening nights are broadcast. It'slike Santa Fe in repertoire size. This yearthey're down to five productions, in partbecause of uncertainties in labor negotia¬tions. The highlights include Don Giovan¬ni, Lohengrin, and Verdi's early Attila (inthe local edition). It's a far cry from the1920's, when Mary Garden brought Carusohere, or even from the Lyric's early daysin the 50's that saw Maria Callas's Ameri¬can debut, and many others'. Neverthe¬less, it's still the only grand opera in town,and it is still the great society showplace.It's expensive, and frequently sold out, butevery so often everything works right, andyou get something magnificent like thePeter Grimes and Meistersinger of a fewyears ago.Other, smaller opera companies arefound regularly in Chicago, and either giveseveral successful productions or don't.They should always be taken advantageof.Finally, the Chicago Symphony Orches¬tra. A few years ago, Time magazinecalled them "the sine qua non of orches¬tras," and the management plastered thatcurious phrase all over its advertising fora season. (What they meant, of course,was "ne plus ultra.") It is, indeed, a veryfine orchestra; but I can't suggest in goodconscience that you go to hear Sir GeorgSolti conduct it. I find that he gets enor¬mous excitement and very little music outof the music; the city's greatest culturalloss was when Carlo Maria Giulini left usfor Los Angeles — and a contract forbid¬ding him to conduct any other Americanorchestra for three years. Save your pen¬nies — the Gallery seats are normally $8 —and pick a favorite work or two. Openingnight, the first weekend in October, isMahler's Eighth Symphony, featuring theundisputed world's best chorus, the Chica¬go Symphony Chorus, Margaret Hillis,founder and director. It is doubtless soldout, but it presumably was chosen partlyto inaugurate the new Orchestra Hallorgan (if not, they're still using an electronic monstrosity). We can be proud thatEdward Mondello was instrumental in getting a pipe organ back into Orchestra Hall,by refusing to serve on the selection com¬ mittee if it was to pick an electronic one.CSO concert tickets are sold this way:most of them go as series during the sum¬mer, but whatever tickets are left go onsale one month before the concert date, bymail, and three weeks before, at the boxoffice. Friday afternoons are almostalways available, but Thursday and Satur¬day nights sell out quickly.In previous years, a student organiza¬tion, "Friends of the Symphony," organ¬ized visits to Mandel Hall by the CSO, andalso an informal lecture-demonstrationseries featuring the Symphony's first-chair soloists. Similar things are beingplanned; watch this space.Speaking of Orchestra Hall reminds usof the finest concert hall in the country, ifnot the world: the Auditorium Theatre.This is an architectural as well as anacoustical masterpiece (designed by LouisSullivan and Dankmar Adler, respective¬ly, possibly with ornamentation by FrankLloyd Wright), which has been the home ofthe Chicago Symphony and the ChicagoOpera, but now sadly has no regular ense¬mble. It is rather the site of the most di¬verse recitals, concerts, dance programs,and popular performances, and pricestend to be quite reasonable because of theenormous size of the place. (A few yearsago I heard Dietrich Fischer Dieskau singMahler songs — perfectly — from the ut¬most gallery, for two dollars.)Another good buy is the Allied Arts pianoseries, occupying a long string of Sundayafternoons in Orchestra Hall and pres¬enting both world renowed and up and-coming performers. Just keep an eye onthe various impresarios' publicity.The best way to keep in touch with the city's cultural affairs is the guide sectionof Chicago magazine. Everything is listedthere — classical and popular music,opera, dance, theater, arts, museums, res¬taurants — in great detail. While the arti¬cles are sometimes less than thrilling,there are usually good ones on politics andon local eating, among other things. TheReader has a classical music listing sec¬tion, somewhere amongst the folkjazzb-luesrocketc ones. They also have severalmusic critics worth reading.Chicago magazine started out as, andstill contains, the program listings forWFMT (98.7 FM and 1450 AM), usuallyreckoned the finest classical music stationin the country and the first "super sta¬tion," heard across the nation by cable.Virtually every American symphonybroadcast is transmitted here, and the SanFrancisco Opera. Countless Europeanbroadcasts are received through WFMT,including some live from Bayreuth. TheBBC supplies much music. Just down thedial (97.1 FM) is WN IB, a sort of top fortyclassical station; almost all their advertis¬ing time is used to sell their program list¬ings, which are almost the sole support ofthe station. The city's Board of Educationstation, WBEZ (91.5 FM), is the local Na¬tional Public Radio outlet. The only otherplace on the radio to find classical music isthe University's WHPK (83.5 FM), whichis currently revising its broadcastingschedule and intends to devote about athird of its programming to classicalmusic. Thanks to a professor's bequest afew years ago, it now holds the city's sec¬ond largest collection (after WFMT) ofclassical records. Frustratingly, the oneexception to the FM rule is that the Metro¬ politan Opera's Saturday afternoon broad¬casts (where is Milton Cross now that weneed him?) are heard here only on WGN-AM, in dismally atrocious sound.Broadcast opera may, though, some¬times be found in simulcast on Channel 11(PBS, locally) and WFMT. They presentfilmed operas, as well as the Live fromLincoln Center, Live from the Met, andGreat Performances (maybe one musicprogram a month) series. Also on TV isNBC's new series (here on Channel 5) ofLive from Studio 8-H (whence Toscaniniused to broadcast). PBS also has, thoughthere's no telling from week to week whenChannel 11 might schedule it, Evening at(Boston) Symphony and, in the summer,Evening at Pops.Those of you who are lucky enough to behere in the summer (people always say un¬iversities are nicest in the summer, whenthe students are all gone) can go to freeconcerts in Grant Park four times a eek(two programs) featuring an excellent or¬chestra — with distinguished conductors(Leonard Slatkin, of St. Louis, particular¬ly) and soloists, as well as pops concertsand a dance program each summer, plusthe annual 3rd of July extravaganza fea¬turing fireworks and Sousa. (This year300,000 people came.) You can also, for $4,sit on the grass (bring a picnic) at Ravinia,the Chicago Symphony's summer home.More money buys a seat inside the open-air pavillion or the enclosed concert hall;chamber and recital programs are alsofeatured, as well as popular concerts.To get back inside the house with theelectronics, those who prefer to controltheir own programming should knowwhere to buy records. The Student Co-op inthe basement of Reynolds Club has a smallbut interesting selection of records in stock(they'd rather keep Zemlinsky's Quarteton hand than eighteen versions of Bolero)and can order anything you want; period¬ically they have special sales on particularlabels, which they then stock in profusion.Nonesuch and Odyssey are most oftentreated that way. In a basement at thecorner of 55th and Hyde Park there's aused record store; you never know whatyou might find in their small classical sec¬tion, and they'll relieve you of your un¬wanted discs (in good condition) for mod¬est payment. Spin-lt, on 57th nearBlackstone, has a very small classicalstock, and doesn't handle it very well(when Elly Ameling was here a few yearsago, they featued her records in an ad, butdidn't get in any quantity or selection ofthem).For major classical record browsing andpurchases, try first Sounds Good on Broad¬way just south of Belmont on the NorthSide; the staff there are especially helpful.Rose Records on Wabash south of Adams(in the Loop) claims to be the world's larg¬est record store. Their selection is enor¬mous, but the store i^ congested and thestaff tend to be brusque. Both stores,owned by the same company, have weeklysales on major labels. Rose Records upstairs, though, is not to be missed: that'swhere they keep the budget labels and,more importantly, their classical cut-outs.Whereas most stores ship discontinueditems back to the factory to be ground upand turned into pop records, Rose just setsthem upstairs and slashes the price. Inparticular, with the change in ownership ofLondon Records, hundreds of discs by An-sermet, Munchinger and Kertesz havebeen deleted from the catalog, and theseworthy performances can now be grabbedcheap.Lastly, if you can't afford even cheap re¬cords, betake yourself to the third floor ofRegenstein Library, exchange your ID fora headset, and enjoy your selections fromthe University's own record collection.So we end where we began, with the lifeof the mind, the hallmark of the Universityof Chicago — a place where there's anawful lot of music for you both to hear andto make.the grey city journal —Friday, September 26, 1980— 7I- ~ * f « ‘ -V /*«>#» 4 * > * c * I • ~ I i t ' \ I » I3fL'."ftmI PLANTS ALIVE!in Harper Court5210 Harper Ave.667-2036 10-6 except Sunday 11 -5]W:Being one of country’s pioneer plant shops — certainly Chicago’s first —has led us to the sources of hundreds of kinds of specimen plants — allthe popular, easily maintained varieties, and increasing numbers of moreexotic but house-adaptable kinds — and to learn (and to communicatewith you) about what grows and looks best in your particular setting.Come in to browse and discuss (10-6 daily, 11-5 Sunday) and if you finda plant, or plants irresistable, you'll find the prices attractive too.IDA NOYES HALLNOW OPEN!Memberships on sale for $2 duringStudent Activities Night.

Well knownand respected for the exhibits of paintingand sculpture at the Bergman Gallery onthe fourth floor of Cobb Hall, the Renais¬sance Society is extending its scope to in¬clude a wider community of interests. Ex¬ercising the same rigorous criterion forselecting films as it does in selecting its vi¬sual art exhibits, the Renaissance Societywill present important works of cinemaeach quarter; works which would other¬wise be unavailable locally. By organizingthe films in a series format and providingprogram notes, the Renaissance Societyhopes the experience will be informativeas well as entertaining. Included in thisseries: Breathless, 1959; A Woman Is AWoman, 1961; Vivre Savie, 1962; Con¬tempt, 1963; Band of Outsiders, 1964;Alphaville, 1965; Pierrot Le Fou, 1965;Masculine-Feminine, 1966.by Andrea Staskonski-HvolbekJean-Luc Godard is not only the mostimportant director to come out of theFrench New Wave, he is considered a keyfigure in the history of cinema. Like theother New Wave directors, Truffaut, Ri-vette, Rohmer, and Chabrol, Godardbegan his career as a critic and receivedhis cinema education at the CinemathequeFrancaise, an archive which held contin¬uous showings of its entire ecclectic collec¬tion. Here in the early 1950's they discov¬ered Hollywood's films from D.W. Griffithshorts through the most contemporaryproductions. Looking at the films enmasse, the young critics detected values inwhat had previously been dismissed as en¬tertainment for the masses. Writing in theCahiers du Cinema they initiated a schoolof criticism based on the twin concepts ofpolitique des auteurs and film genre. Poli¬tique des auteurs singles out the directoras the guiding sensibility of a film whosepersonal stamp is identifiable even in aHollywood studio production. Film genre,a set of conventions and expectations afilm shares with others of a particularkind, e.g., westerns, provides the contextfor the director. (Andrew Sarris later pop-ularied "auteur criticsm" in the U.S. andthe Doc Film Group continues the tradi¬tion.) Simultaneously, Andre Bazin wasdeveloping his theories of moral realism inthe pages of Cahiers.With these theories in mind, the NewWave critic-turned-director set out tomake films which would more obviouslybe personal communication between thedirector and the audience. However, im¬mersion in film history precluded the pos¬sibility of making film naively; thesedirectors could not freely invent film formas Griffith had done. Every move wasmade with full cognizance of the languageof film narrative as it had developed. Thisself-consciousness about the forms andstructures of the film medium characteriz¬es the New Wave and sets their films apart from those of their predecessors. While Iwould not argue, as others have done, thatthe New Wave signals the origins of modernism in cinema, its arrival is indisput¬able once the French critics turn to thescreen. Susan Sontag elaborates:. . . Godard is a deliberate"destroyer" of cinema .. . Hisapproach to established rulesof film technique like the un¬obtrusive cut, consistency ofpoint of view and clear storyline is comparable to Schon-berg's repudiation of the tonallanguage prevailing in musicaround 1910 when he enteredhis atonal period or the chal¬lenge of the Cubists to suchhallowed rules of painting asrealistic figuration and 3-Dpictorial space.Godard's particular formulation of NewWave concerns was influenced by his years as a student of ethnology at the Sor-bonne. In the late 1940's in an atmosphereheady with Sartre's Existentialism, Mer-leay-Ponty's Phenomenology, and investi¬gations into Saussure's linguistics, Godarddeveloped what James Monaco, in TheNew Wave, calls or "existential semio¬logy," i.e., the reaffirmation of the self byconfronting the plethora of languages thatconfound us — writing, film, popular art,billboards, packaging, advertising, and soforth. Understanding how these languagesinfluence our perception we can begin toreaffirm the Self — our source of imaginetion and love, our instincts.Anticipating Christian Metz's work onfilm and language Godard grappled withthe problem of film as media — an inter¬mediary between the viewer and what isviewed — which has a maker. The politicaland ethical implications of the cinema arecrucial issues for Godard. "At the cinema,we do not think," he says, "we arethought." We are gripped, fascinated,overwhelmed, possessed. We do not just watch. Our glance is guided and ourthoughts, perhaps, as well. Conventionalcinema presents a window on the world, aseamless vision which carries us alongwith the characters through the story su-pressing awareness of this "reality" asconstructed. Because the camera is notmerely a recording apparatus Godard be¬lieves the filmmaker is under moral obli¬gation to make his/her presence known.The radical narrative techniques Go¬dard employes are the outgrowth of hisethical concerns. His critics may questionwhether he has any narrative technique,but telling a story is not his goal. Godardisn't interested in craft in finely finishedaesthetic objects for relaxed consumption;his films are demanding essays. As Brechtsought to get his theater audience to main¬tain consciousness of his vehicle (thestage) Godard breaks his narrative intofragments or tableaux as a deliberate de¬vice to distance the audience from thecharacters and the action to prevent un¬conscious involvment. Cutting out thesmooth transitions Godard refuses a set ofconventional causal relation. Denied illu¬sory realism Godard offers the viewer thepossibility of glimpsing moments of truth— moments of fully alive existence.Jean Collet argues that the key to Go¬dard's oeuvre is the dialectic between fic¬tion and documentary. Fanatically insis¬tent on realistic filming conditions Godarduses only the light available from naturalsources, records the sound directly (henever filters out background noise) andalways shoots on location (only A WomanIs A Woman had studio scenes). In fact, hisfilms have such a strongly rooted senseof place — sensitive to the sights andrhythms of the streets and cafes of Paris —that they appear to be documentaries. Yethe never films in the cinema verite mode.According to Godard, "Beauty and truthhave two poles: documentary and fiction.You can start from either one. My startingpoint is documentary to which I try to givethe truth of fiction." Cinema is the artwhich captures the fleeting moment, thelook, that totally attentive moment whenthe actor is, when necessity and freedommerge. "The important thing is to beaware one exists. For 3/4 of the time duringthe day one forgets this truth, whichsurges up again as you look at houses or ared light, and you have the sensation exist¬ing in that moment. That," says Godard,"is the goal of all my films."The starting point for Godard's radicalcritique of cinema was far from the intel¬lectual world which informs his critique.The impetus for his work lay in his person¬al experiences. Godard deeply felt, as dothe heroes of his films, that something waswrong with the society. Outsiders all ofthem, they recognized the lack of love, theimpossibility of love, the impoverishmentof conventional modes of understandingthe world. They noticed the increase ofprostitution: physical, intellectual, andspiritual, but none of them understandswhy. In his first feature film Breathless,1959 we see the word POURQUOI writtenin cigarette packs on the wall . . Askingwhy, articulating the context of the hero'suneasiness characterizes Godard's earlyfilms.SUBSTITUTE TEACHERSNEEDED midwest(f^B population centerA LICENSED NON-PROFIT MEDICAL ANDAll subjects.

Ellis AvenueCalculator Department, 2nd Floor753-3303Mastercharge and Visa accepted10 Friday, September 26, 1980—the grey city journalNo NukesIsGood Nukesby Jeff MakosNo Nukes is a great piece of propaganda. For almost two hours we have afront row view of some of the most popularentertainers of the Seventies singing andplaying for a cause — solar energy and anon-nuclear future. For almost the firsttime since the late Sixties, we hear musi¬cians speaking out intellegently on anissue that affects their listeners, ratherthan facelessly grinding out the kind ofmellow pap that has dominated popularmusic during the Me Decade. For a whileit seems that the kind of connection thatonce existed between mass artists andtheir audiences on issues of political signi¬ficance could happen again, although thistime on a question that can cut acrossparty lines. Unfortunately, this piece ofpropaganda No Nukes is also a pro¬blematic and flawed work of art.The film is a documentary of the con¬certs given by MUSE, Musicians Unitedfor Safe Energy, in New York City in September of 1979. Formed and headed by ar¬tists like Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt,Graham Nash, and John Hall, MUSEhoped to organize a series of shows featur¬ing big-time rock, folk, and funk acts whonot only supported an anti-nuke position,but who would also perform free in orderto raise money to support grass roots anti¬nuke organizations throughout thecountry. Performances during a five-con¬cert series, from which the film is compiled, featured James Taylor, CarlySimon, Bruce Springsteen, and others besides the founders of MUSE. The film pres¬ents these artists' performances as well asbackstage scenes, audience reactions, tootage from MUSE organizing sessions, aswell as from an outdoor rally held duringthe day in Battery Park.We first get scenes from outside Madis¬on Square Garden, comments from peoplein the crowd as well as police workingcrowd control that present different opinions on nuclear energy as well as the con¬certs themselves. Comments like "I'monly here to see Bruce," "Nukes are hereto stay," and "I'm against nuclear power"present the basic problem facing the ar¬tists (and the film itself, as it were): Howto present a convincing argument to an audience that is splinteed in its political out¬look, who really only have the music of theindividual artists to unite them. The firstfew performers set the ditferent themesthat the filmmakers are trying to getacross.The first number is "Mockingbird" doneby James Taylor and Carly Simon, both ofwhom became heavily involved withMUSE, and the artists that representedthe largest possible audiences that couldbe influenced by the concerts and movie,next to Springsteen. They are also presented as the new age father and mother figures, seen at various times commenting onthe possible genetic affects nuclear reactors and their misuse in the country couldhave on their own children. This scene, aswell as performances by Crosby Stills andNash and a group performance of "TheTimes They Are A'Changin' " hearkenback to the Sixties, reminding us of aformer time of unification between artistsand audiences, as well as pointing out thevalidity of statements made by artists that attempt to do more than speak to personal,individual concerns.This connection to the past made, thenext sequence of artists we see are allyounger, all oriented to the Seventies,from the angst of Jackson Browne to theprofessionalism of The Doobie Brothers.Browne is the spiritual son of the CrosbyStills brand of folk rock, and his perfor¬mances of "Running On Empty" and "Be¬fore The Deluge," while more works ofanalysis and reflection than a Dylanesquecall to arms, (the ghost of Dylan's workhaunts the movie), still reflect the newerform of persona! longings for a communitythat are at the heart of the best Seventiesrock. Even the Doobies, while borderingon their own brand of formulaic dreck, stillrock out: The filmmakers emphasizing theyounger members of the group as well asthe older longhairs, focusing on the sym¬bolic communities that rock groups repre¬sent at their best.For the first two thirds of the movie weare presented with a powerfully directedfilm, strongly emphasizing the personalcommitment of the artists as well as theartistic unity of their performances. Thetension between the older artists interestsin presenting a cause to be concernedabout and the younger artists expressionof how this cause affects even the most isolated and introverted member of the audi¬ence is kept alive through performancesby diverse acts as Bonnie Raitt and GilScott Heron. We also see these people com¬menting on their involvement with MUSE,speaking out to the press, or just mixingbehind the scenes. This sense of a sharedpurpose is reinforced by scenes from theMUSE organizing sessions as well as ex¬cerpts from a film shown to the audiencesduring breaks in the show, a film whichfeatures scenes from old Army trainingfilm about the "wondrous sight to behold"of an atomic explosion, and scenes fromother anti-nuke rallys. As James Taylorrocks in the background with a very effective protest song "Stand Up and Fight,"the artist/audience connection is keptalive. The message constantly repeated istwofold: One, pop music can still be usedas a unifying force on issues of greaterconcern than mere entertainment, andtwo, that artists are people too, and are notleaders so much as representatives of thedesires and aspirations of their audiences.So far so good, but then we get theSpringsteen segment.It was surprising to everyone whenSpringsteen announced that he was throwing his support to the MUSE group. He isthe least overtly political performer in thefilm, and his three numbers almost consti¬tute a film within the main film: TheBruce Springsteen Story within the politi¬cal show. He presents a new song, "TheRiver," that is a more depressing look atthe themes of working class alienationthan he presented on his album "Darknesson the Edge of Town." He then performsan old song, "Thunder Road," whichsegues into part of an encore rendition of"Quarter to Three" which features Springsteen doing his fake collapsing on stagebut reviving again routine, songs that emphasize his position as Youth Spokesmanas well as Great Performer. Springsteen istremendous, and the sequences capture The Boss contemplates the end of the world.his energy and abilities, but he really hasnothing to do with the restof the film, andit is here that the problems in the filmbegin to seriously stand out.Up until this point the camerawork hasbeen the quality seen in most rock docu¬mentaries: the cameras are placed at theperformers feet and sides, and whateverthey can capture is what they get, and theresults are mostly sloppy but authentic.No Nukes is closer to Woodstock and thatmovie's free-floating camerawork, as opposed to the care and suggestive work ofMartin Scorcese in The Last Waltz. Theentertainers in No Nukes are all shot inabout the same fashion: fairly evenlydivided between closeups and long shots,and all emphasizing the interaction amongthe musicians, with members of Taylor'sband playing with Browne, and vice versa.Springsteen, however, is presented as aseparate entity, and is the occasion for thebest camerawork of the movie. As "TheRiver" begins, a song emphasizing thebrooding romantic side of Springsteen'swork, the camera stays at foot level, shoot¬ing the singer with one white light behindhim and the rest of the screen deep blue.The light is beautifully used to representthe moonlight scenes that are the recurring feature of Springsteen's nightoriented tales, and also suggests a connection with the sunlight images used by theother MUSE artists, creating an op¬portunity for developing a symbolicassociation between the younger Springsteen fans and the other, more issue-oriented artists. But this connection isnever developed, and instead we get thecrowd pleasing scenes of the encore,scenes that are exciting in themselves butcompletely dissipate the energy that hasbeen so carefully developed and directedin the earlier parts of the film. It is as if thefilmmakers really didn't know what to dowith this completely non political performance in the context of the anti-nukestatements, and finellv iust presented the best of the performance to get the Springsteen fans into see the rest of the show. ButSpringsteen Is so powerful that he makesyou forget what has gone before, and whenthe film cuts from a wildly cheering Brucecrowd to a MUSE board meeting, the allimportant connection between the olderartists and a younger audience is missed,and a chance is blown. Although the filmsoon moves to scenes from the large andenthusiastic Battery Park rally,something is missing, and the unity suggested by the earlier scenes is somehownot complete, the energy lessened.The connection could have been there, aswell: Jackson Browne is the Californiaversion of Springsteen, both artists represent the generation that grew up in thewake of the Sixties, and Browne and Spingsteen even performed together at theMUSE concerts. The exclusion of this tootage was a serious mistake. While the edu¬cational and radicalizing effect that "NoNukes" could have on some kid who buys aticket blitzed out of his mind and comingonly to see "The Boss" is a open-endedissue, the chance for a complete connection is missing in "No Nukes." While theconcert itself is shown to be a successfulgathering of disparate musicians over animportant issue of social concern, somehow the unity remains fragile, tentative,and — at least as shown by the filmmakersthemselves — unsure of how a connectioncan be made between the younger andolder audiences.Still, No Nukes is a good film and important film, for the problems it raises aswell as for the answer it attempts to present. The rock audience may be too splintered to ever have the kind of unity thatNo Nukes tries to suggest is possible,but it is an effort of serious merit, and is agood and admirable attempt to broadenthe anti nuke ranks. If it had been moreaware of itself, more aware of what thefilm itself could do, more assured as apiece of art, it would have been an evenbetter piece of propaganda.the grey city journal— h riday, September 26, 1980— 11Five reasons why the ChicagoTribune hitsUniversity of Chicago students where they liveEntertainmentTake a break from thebooks with the exciting,entertaining ideas you'llfind every day in Tempo,Friday in Weekend andSunday in Arts & Fun.ADMITONE SportsGet more than just thescores, with the Tribune scomprehensive coverageof athletic events — skiingto basketball, prep to pro.One-third off onTribune door delivery.One-third off on Tribune door delivery.Now, for a limited time, students canget the Tribune delivered daily andSunday for only S1.50 per week — that's1/3 off the retail price for a full schoolyear.

NeumanFamily Collection at the National Galleryof Art, Washington, D.C. Considered to beone of the finest private Americancollections of 20th century art, theNeuman collection originated in 1948when Neuman, a Chicago businessman,traveled to Europe and made his first artpurchase from Pablo Picasso. That thispreviously unexhibited Chicago-basedcollection would open for public view inWashington before Chicago is certainly astatement about something. And that"something" concerns Chicago'sAmerican city status; which is usuallydesignated as "second" on thecomparative levels of population andtheatre; often even lower on the level ofart.One can feel a small amount of sadnessfor the Art Institute for having lost thecoveted opportunity to be the premiereexhibitor of a collection as impressiveand complete as the Neuman supposedlyis; especially since the Art Instituterarely initiates an important show butoften supplies other museums theartworks to do so. The Post-Impressionistexhibit originally organized at the RoyalAcademy of Arts in London (shown thissummer at the National Gallery inWashington) borrowed heavily from theArt Institute. So did the Museum ofModern Art, New York, when it staged thissummer's Picasso extravaganza.Undoubtedly other museums have reliedon the Art Institute, whose Western ArtCollection is not so complete as that ofeither the Metropolitan Museum, NewYork, or even the National Gallery ofWashington, but provides more in-depthand distinctive coverage of certainperiods; including the FrenchImpressionists, the Flemish School, andold Italian painting.But the sadness one might feel for theArt Institute suffering second (thecollection will be on display here inFebruary) in the Neuman collectionproceedings doesn't last for long. Manyof the Museum's exhibits within the lastyear indicate that they are not only notinterested in anything NEW (leave thatto the Museum of Contemporary Art theymust mumble), but they have perhaps lostinterest in art altogether. The galleryspace has been allotted again and again when will they get rid of thepaperweights?to objects more closely resembling itemsin the Marshall Field's Home FurnishingSection than to products of less functionalcreative inspiration.Not that an impenetrable barrier existsbetween craft and art; it does not. Butthe Museum's particular shows havedone little to elevate craft to art, much tosanctify bourgeois materialism byelevating collecting to art.The most obvious examples of this arethe Rubloff and Rosenwald Glasscollections, both of which occupy thestrategic gallery spaces at the end ofGunsalus Hall on the first floor — youmust pass both rooms to get to the 20thCentury and Primitive Art Collectionsfrom the main entrance.The Rubloff Collection has been in thesame space for over a year and thusappears to have established itself as apermanent exhibit. It consists of shelvesfull of paperweights, a cordial glass, anda doorknob or two. Most of the objectsare from France, all labeled (for theviewer's discriminating eye) either"rare", "very rare", or "extremelyrare". No matter what the relativeclassification, all of them are stupid.Especially the one in the center of theroom which claims to be the world'slargest paperweight. Rather than viewthe exhibit directly, you might walk overto the Hallmark Store at the Hyde ParkShopping Center, they have a reasonableRubloff facsimile in the window. Similarpaperweights are also on sale inabundance at the Art Institute MuseumStore.Even less interesting then the RubloffCollection is the Rosenwald GlassCollection. Consisting of 232 pieces ofrare glass that generally dates from the16th through 18th century, the exhibit isbasically an historic catalogue of whatwealthy people drank their wine from.Other exhibits that focus on thetraditional ornaments and embellishedaccutrements of the rich include therecent Sumptuous Velvets from thePermanent Collection exhibit, as well asthe John Henry Belter and the RococoRevival show to open in November. WhileBelter is known as "America'scabinetmaker," his work hardly suggestssuch a humble epithet. The ornatefurniture that Belter manufactured in the19th century was among the mostexpensive furniture available at the time,not to mention its monetary worth now.A perhaps more plebian utilitarian exhibit is the Spanish Tradition of NewMexico and Colorado show that closesnext week. The show consists of 65 nativeAmerican Indian textiles, includingembroideries, floor coverings, andwall-hanging-like pieces of woven cloth.The works certainly exhibit finecraftsmanship but one can't help butwonder what the point is. Perhaps toremind us that killing the Indians andforcing them westward then giving theirland to Rubloffs who build buildings andcollect paperweights didn't destroy theIndian appreciation of simple things thatwe always knew they had; and wantedmore than land and paperweightsanyway. Guilt appeased.Another exhibit that includes utilitarianart IsHawaii: The Royal Isles. The showalso includes artifacts, paintings, printsand drawings, with the overall thematicintention being to trace the Hawaiian his¬tory from monarchy to statehood. Butrather than be a history - either of art orculture en general — the show remains onthe level of a travel bureau promotion. Ineluded in the show is a film supposedly ofHawaii. But it's so superficial it could bejust about any warm, sandy, surrounded-by-beaches location. The exhibit is partial¬ly funded by the United Airlines — purvey¬ors of the only nonstop flight from Chicagoto Hawi'i.As the Art Institute continues to lose itsart space to covertly commercial exhibits,discretionary viewers should continue toavoid such shows. Spend the time insteadin the Glore Print Study Room, the 20thCentury Painting and Sculpture, and all ofthe other marvellous permanent collec¬tions that existed before the current Art institute Curator Powers That Be, and shallexist long after. If you want to see new art,go to the Museum of Contemporary Art; orcheck out the small galleries around thecity.

Share Vr.the grey city journal —Friday, September 26, 1980— 15Unreeling Cby Jeff MechanickEach year the University of Chicago sends out aplethora of catalogues, brochures, and informationbooklets to prospective students. These publicationstend to stress the quality of the education offered atthe University, the number of Nobel Prize winnerswho have been associated with it, the resources ofour massive library, and, finally, the cultural op¬portunities awaiting the student on campus andaround the city of Chicago. Among the culturalhighlights pointed out are the excellent museumsand art galleries, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra,and the wondrous Chicago architecture. However,one cultural opportunity which awaits the studentboth on and off campus has been consistently over¬looked or understressed. This is the opportunity offilmgoing.Indeed, the Chicago area offers an enormousamount for the potential filmgoer, with somethingfor nearly every taste. In addition to two superbfilm groups right here on campus, the city of Chi¬cago is host to several other nontheatrical film or¬ganizations, a few revival theaters, numerous first-and second-run movie houses, and a yearly interna¬tional film festival. And for the adventurous, nearbyEvanston andHomewood boast an excellent student film group atNorthwestern University and two other revival the¬aters. In this country, only the New York and LosAngeles areas offer more.ON CAMPUSA fair percentage of the area's offerings is avail¬able right here on campus, with over 100 films slat¬ed for Autumn Quarter alone. What's more, all ofthese can be seen for little more than S20.Doc FilmsThe older and larger of the two regular campusfilm groups is the Documentary Film Group (DocFilms), which also happens to be the oldest student-run film society in America (founded circa 1932).The moniker is misleading, since but one documen¬tary film is scheduled for Autumn 1980. In spite ofthis, the schedule is a fascinating array of films —new and old, American and foreign, popular and es¬oteric. Their overwhelming schedule of 82 filmsoffers something every day of the week, nearly allquarter long.Mondays and Wednesdays feature a series enti¬tled "Masters of the Melodrama," which focuses onthree key directors in that oft-maligned genre. Thefirst is D.W. Griffith, whose films can be sometimesgrating in their lapses toward Victorian preachi¬ness, but which are generally redeemed by theirlyrical beauty and brilliant editing. Eight films,spanning the years 1916-1924, are included in theseries. Among these are two of his greatest works,Intolerance and Broken Blossoms; conspicuouslyabsent, however, is his finest expression of themelodrama, Way Down East. The second directorunder study is John Stahl, directing in sober black-and-white at the height of the studio era. Sevenfilms, covering the years 1932-1947, are included.Particularly recommended is Leave Her To Heav¬en, where Gene Tierney attempts to gain her hus¬band's attention by killing off various members ofher family. Finally, the series shifts to DouglasSirk, with a double bill of his remake of MagnificentObsession and John Stahl's original providing ancellent transition. Sirk is possibly the American cinema's least appreciated director of any stature,probably because the melodrama is one of the leastappreciated genres. Nevertheless, his films — char¬acterized by beautifully lit compositions in baroquecolors and by characters beset by the psychologicalills running rampant in the cinema of the late For¬ties and the Fifties — have influenced a number ofsubsequent directors, particularly Ranier WernerFassbinder. Of the eight films representing theyears 1943-1956, two of his finest works, All ThatHeaven Allows and the already mentioned Magnifi¬cent Obsession, are included. Inexplicably present,however, are two very atypical Sirk films: Hitler'sMadman, a wartime propaganda film much in theJeff Mechanick is a member of Doc Films.16 —Friday, September 26, 1980—the grey same mold as Fritz Lang's Hangmen Also Die; andShockproof, more a film noir than a melodrama. Asan introduction to the series, Doc will present a freescreening of Nicholas Ray's Bigger Than Life at7:30 p.m. on Sunday, September 28. The film will befollowed by a brief talk by Frank McConnell (Pro¬fessor of English at Northwestern University andreputedly a very entertaining lecturer), entitled"Melodrama in American Film, or That's NoLady."In contrast to the somewhat flawed, if ambitious,Monday and Wednesday series, Tuesdays feature anearly flawless introduction to the work of one of thescreen's greatest directors, Fritz Lang. His is a cinema of stark composition, of light and shadow, andof lurking doom — a sinister, fatalistic universe.The series covers both his German and Americanperiods and consists of fourteen films. It begins withLang's vision of the future and one of his few op¬timistic films, Metropolis. The series then proceedsto cover all four of Lang's Dr. Mabuse films — Ma¬buse being to Lang's world what Jefferson Smith orLongfellow Deeds are to Capra's. Next comes hisTeutonic two-parter, Die Niebelungen, with the nat¬uralistic Kriemhild's Revenge providing a fascinat¬ing contrast to the expressionistic Siegfried. Final¬ly, the series concludes with seven of his Americanfilms. Three of these — Fury, Woman In The Win¬dow, and The Big Heat — are unmistakable master¬pieces, and a fourth, You Only Live Once, is an ex¬cellent, subtle progenitor to Bonnie and Clyde.Meanwhile, Thursdays and Sundays feature a pot-Dourri of foreign films — 20, to be exact. Includedare three screen classics: Francois Truffaut's spir¬ited hommage to the American film noir, Shoot ThePiano Player (in a newly available Cinema Scopeprint); Weekend, one of Jean-Luc Godard's bestfilms before going off the political deep end; andone of the most beautiful, touching, and profoundfilms, Jean Renoir's La Grande Illusion. Of noteamong the other entries: last year's Grand Prizewinner at the Chicago Film Festival, Angi Vera(making its first Chicago appearance since then);Ermanno Olmi's masterful epic, The Tree Of Wood¬en Clogs; two films about maladjusted nuns, Mi¬chael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's hauntingBlack Naracissus, and Jacques Rivette's deliriousThe Nun; two excellent early efforts by Claude Cha¬brol, Leda and Les Bonnes Femmes; two infre¬quently shown early Bergmans, A Lesson In Loveand athe infamous Summer With Monika; and Mar¬cel Ophul's documentary on the turmoil in NorthernIreland, A Sense Of Loss.Rounding out the week is an impressive mixtureof popular films on Fridays and Saturdays — of-times preceded by "surprise" cartoons. And speak¬ing of cartoons... the weekend schedule actually begins on thefirst Wednesday of the quarter (Oct. 1), with 98 min¬utes of sheer, animated delight, Chuck Jones's TheBugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie. Included on theweekend are five of the most renowned films of thelast year-and-a-half: 10, a superb comedy by thebest comic director of the past two decades, BlakeEdwards; Apocalypse Now, despite numerousflaws, the best and most entertaining of the recentwave of Vietnam movies; Being There; The BlackStallion; and Coal Miner's Daughter. (Two others —All That Jazz and Kramer Vs. Kramer — are on tapfor Winter.) Then there are two of last year's betterkept secrets: Nicholas Meyer's delightful sciencefiction romance, Time After Time; and Alan J. Pa¬kula's comedy of life after marriage, Starting Over.Several older American films are also present: twoclassic expositions of the gangster film, HowardHawks's Scarface and Raoul Walsh's White Heat;possibly the best American film of the Seventies,Franklin Schaffner's Patton, which features excep¬tional performances from George C. Scott and KarlMalden and a terrific Francis Coppola script; aThanksgiving double bill of two of Hollywood's fin¬est musicals, The Band Wagon and Singin' In TheRain; Sean Connery's last James Bond film, Dia¬monds Are Forever; and visions of America presentand future, Robert Altman's overrated Nashvilleand Woody Allen's hilarious Sleeper.Problems with Doc, then, do not really lie with theschedule, but with the conditions under which theyscreen films. Quantrell Auditorium (Cobb 209), al¬though clean, is somewhat lacking in comfort, has arather small screen and has in the past featured ancity journal inadequate sound system. However, a new, fairlyexpensive sound system has recently been installed.And the screen, if small, is at least quite lumine¬scent and suitable for Cinemascope(widescreen) screenings. Doc does have a verycommendable policy of showing Cinemascope filmsonly in their original Cinemascope aspect ratio,rather than butchered TV-shape prints all too prevalent on college campuses today.Admission to Doc shows is $1 on Mondays throughWednesdays and SI.50 on Thursdays through Sun¬days. This includes double bills; however, the mid¬night shows on Fridays and Saturdays have sepa¬rate admission ($1.50). Better yet is a series pass,good for admission to all 82 movies, for $10. Thereare a limited number of these available and theyare usually snatched-up within the first few days ofthe quarter, so be forewarned.Law School FilmsThe other regular film group on campus is LawSchool Films (LSF). In contrast to Doc, LSF ismuch narrower in focus — concentrating its atten¬tion on big star, A-budget Hollywood movies of theThirties, Forties and early Fifties. Only an occa¬sional pre-Thirties (none this quarter) or post-Fif-ties (one) film is screened. LSF is a fairly newgroup, whose screenings have been opened up to thegeneral public only within the last few years. Filmsare shown primarily on Thursdays and Saturdays,with fourteen slated for this quarter.Their Autumn schedule is a dazzing array of Hol¬lywood's finest. Represented are some of Hol¬lywood's greatest directors (including HowardHawks, Alfred Hitchcock, Ernst Lubitsch, andGeorge Cukor) and some of its greatest stars (in¬cluding Garbo, Bogart, Cary Grant, and KatherineHepburn). The schedule begins appropriatelyenough with the American cinema's most majesticfilm, Gone With The Wind — a film done terrible in¬justice on the small screen, chopped-up by commer¬cials. Other schedule highlights are: one of thescreen's greatest screwball comedies, Hawks's Bringing Up Baby, ward; two of Lubitschcomedies, Ninotchkabest of the Astaire/Ivens's Swing Time;hour, Duck Soup.

The seats are comfortable, the screen islarge, and the sound system is good. In fact, an evenlarger screen and better sound system are sche¬duled for installation in the near future. Addition¬ally, all films except Gone With The Wind are ac¬companied by a cartoon or live-action short.Finally, LSF has in recent years brought to campusseveral prominent figures in American film —among them, Frank Capra and Andrew Sarris. An¬other is promised for this year.Admission to all Law School films is $1.50. Aseries pass, good for admission to all fourteen films,is available for $5.50.Other Campus ScreeningsBesides the two regular campus film groups andtheir considerable offerings, several other organi¬zations on campus tend to show films from time totime.Foremost among these this quarter is the Renais¬sance Society, which has scheduled a series of earlyGodard films on Saturday evenings. The series in¬cludes Breathless, Contempt, Alphaville, and sever¬al other films — among them Godard's greatestwork, Pierrot Le Fou. Admission is free, and thefilms will be shown in the screening room of the Uni¬versity Film Study Center, Cobb 425. Unfortunatelythe room holds only about 30 people. However, inorder to accommodate as many people as possible,there will be at least two screenings per evening.(See Godard story)Other campus film groups which will undoubtedlyalso schedule films during the quarter are: theMen's Crew Team, showing in either Quantrell or inKent 107; International House, unfortunately showing in a very uncomfortable auditorium, Internaion-al House Assembly Hall; and various dormitories,in either Quantrell or Kent. In particular, Chamber-lain House has been known to schedule a pornogra¬phic film or two. Admission for films shown by thesevarious groups is likely to be $1.50.S„ ALIVEneater goes revival on October 3. OFF CAMPUSIf you find the campus offerings for a particularevening unappealing, or if you just feel like gettingoff campus, there are plenty of other films to seearound the city on any given night. The ChicagoReader, published every Friday and availablearound campus, is the best single source for discov¬ering what's playing throughout the Chicago areaon any given week. For more long-term planning,most of the nontheatrical film groups and the reviv¬al theaters put out monthly or quarterly schedules.These may be obtained at the cinemas themselvesor by requesting one by mail.Off-campus film viewing is generally more expen¬sive than on-campus offerings. In addition to thetransportation costs, admission can range fromunder $2 for some of the second-run movie houses to$4.50 for some of the first-run houses. The nontheatrical organizations and the revival theaters usuallyfall somewhere in-between. However, with a littleforesight, the off-campus/on-campus difference canbe greatly reduced. Many of the nontheatricalgroups, revival theaters, and first-run houses offersome sort of discount card or ticket. Two of these —Rose Tickets and Plitt Tickets — can be purchasedright here on campus at the Reynolds Club Box Off ice. Others may be purchased at the respective cinemas.Nontheatrical’ 1 '. J_' ' ' ' '■ * ' ' ' —' ' ' ' V—The Midwest Film Center of the Art Institute,Jackson Blvd. and Columbus Drive, besides pos¬sessing a very pretentious title, is the area's most"prestigious" nontheatrical film group — or, atleast, it receives far and away the post press. Forexample, Gene Siskel, local area film critic, oncewrote that the Art Institute is "the single greatestsource of quality films in Chicago." That remark, Ibelieve, says more about Mr. Siskel than it doesabout the Art Institute. The latter is a classic ex¬ample of manic, Jekyl-and-Hyde programming.For, despite a schedule far too heavily weightedtoward foreign "art" films, the Art Institute has onoccasion come up with some very worthwhile pro¬gramming. For example, it is just bringing to closea lengthy and excellent retrospective of fifty yearsof Japanese cinema's best films (many of whichhave been little seen in this country). Also, it wasthe sight for the Chicago engagement of the Syberberg's monumental Our Hitler. Finaily, it is one ofthe few outlets in Chicago for experimental and underground cinema. All too often, however, the ArtInstitute has come up with series which have struckme as colossal wastes of time — for example, aseries of films on newspapers last spring, and apoorly programmed one at that — or as terribly in¬complete — for instance, a "series" of John Fordwesterns recently which featured only his four mostoften seen ones. Nevertheless, although their pro¬gramming leaves something to be desired, their fa¬cilities for screening are quite good and they are theonly place in Chicago to provide program notes witheach screening. Admission is $2 and discount ticketsare available with subscription as member. Theirpolicy of charging twice for films on a double bill isquite annoying.Much less heralded and working with far less re¬sources is Facets Multimedia, 1517 W. Fullerton. Al¬though they also manage to bring their share of ob¬scure foreign films to Chicago — for example, anupcoming group of six recent Czech films — Facetscovers a greater amount of classic American films,•has biannual science fiction festivals, has broughtdirectors like Nicholas Roeg to Chicago, and hashad Chicago premieres such as John Huston's ex¬cellent Wise Blood. Two series on the horizon are arock film festival in 35 mm (to include a Sex Pistolsconcert film, D.O.A., and a rarely seen film byRoeg, Glastonbury Fayre) and an extensive Paso¬lini retrospective. Unfortunately, although theirschedule is often superior to the Art Institute's,their facilities are definitely inferior. The seats areuncomfortable, the screen is small, and the soundsystem is somewhat inadequate. Also, there is anunconfirmed story about a woman falling throughthe floor at Facets. Admission is $2.50, and RoseTickets are good for two admissions.the grey city The third major off-campus nontheatrical filmgroup is the A&O Film Board at Northwestern Uni¬versity, 1999 and 2145 N. Sheridan Rd., Evanston.Here we see the opposite extreme from the Art In¬stitute: their schedule is heavily weighted towardAmerican and British films, with a general dearthof foreign films. Prime-time weekends tend to be anundiscriminating list of every moneymaking film inrecent memory. However, late night weekendshows feature such audacious box office failures asWinter Kills and Cuba. Meanwhile, their Sundayseries this quarter features a look at the Americanmusical, with examples as diverse as Tin Pan Alley,Brigadoon, and Godspell on tap. And the weekdays.. . well, they're an indescribable hodgepodge ofAmerican and British esoterica, highlighted bythree notable films by Powell and Pressbuger (TheSpy In Black, Pursuit Of The Graf Spee, and One OfOur Aircraft Is Missing) and one by Powell himself(The Lion Has Wings). Admission to all films, in¬cluding double bills, is $1.50. Series tickets, good for10 admissions during the current quarter, are $10.Revival HousesFar and away, the best of the Chicago area reviv¬al theaters is the Sandburg Theater (Dearborn andDivision), which may be the best commercial the¬ater of any kind in the Chicago area. It is clean, hasextremely comfortable seats, an adequate sizedscreen, and a terrific mixture of foreign and Ameri¬can films, all in crisp 35 mm prints. The currentschedule includes some very creative double bills(for example, Aguirre, The Wrath Of God and Apo¬calypse Now), several films rarely shown in 35 mm(for instance, Sam Fuller's China Gate and Billy'sWilder's Kiss Me, Stupid), a couple of Chicago the¬atrical premieres (most notably, Fassbinder'scross between Wild Strawberries and La Cage AuxFolles, In a Year Of Thirteen Moons), an appear¬ance by director Arthur Penn, and a iSzz film festival combining classic jazz films and appearancesby local area jazz talent (including Von Freeman).Particularly recommended are: Sergio Leone'srarely shown "spaghetti western," Dick, YouSucker (also known as A Fistful Of Dynamite);George Cukor's masterpiece, Travels With MyAunt; Charles Laughton's frightening Night Of TheHunter, which features Robert Mitchum in his mostbizarre role as a psychopathic preacher; and a rarechance to see the entire John Ford cavalry trilogy(Fort Apache, She Wore A Yellow Ribbon and RioGrande) in 35 mm. Programs are generallychanged every two or three days. Admission is $3,with discount cards available at the box office.Two other area revival theaters are the ParkwayTheater, Clark St. and Diversey Blvd., and the Var¬sity Theater, Sherman Ave. and Church St., Evan¬ston, both owned and programmed by the sameWest Coast-based theater chain, Landmark TheaterCorp. The Parkway schedule is a good mixture ofpopular and cult movies, both American andforeign. Much of it is commercially safe pro¬gramming, and the daily-changed double and mul¬tiple bills don't make sense (for example, Lord OfThe Rings and Allegro Non Troppo, whose onlycommon characteristic is the fact that they are bothanimated features). Furthermore, some of theirprogramming (for instance, Marx brothers and Be¬atles evenings) tends to repeat itself over a periodof time. Nevertheless, the Parkway on occasion fea¬tures an unusual item or two — although the currentschedule features less of these than usual — and, atleast, all screenings are in 35 mm. Most recom¬mended this time around are: a rare 35mm screen¬ing of Otto Preminger's Advise And Consent andAnatomy Of A Murder (Oct. 1); a series of eight di¬verse samurai movies; and a Worst Film Festival,including the monumental stinker Plan Nine FromOuter Space. The screen at the Parkway is adequate; however, the seats are a bit uncomfortable.The Varsity Theater should really be called "Park¬way Annex North Shore," since it basically featuresthe most popular films from past and present Park¬way schedules. Programs, however, are changedfour times a week, rather than every night. The seatare as uncomfortable as the Parkway's and there isa tremendous noise problem from people waitingoutside for subsequent shows, so be advised not tocontinued on p. 2 8journal—Friday, September 26, 1980— 17D Bigger than LifeQ Sunday September 287:30 p.m.Quantrell AuditoriumFI FREELM followed by a lecture byC FRANK MC CONNELL^ professor of Englishat Northwestern University“Melodrama in American film,or that’s No Lady”Refreshments will be servedafter the lecture18 —Friday/ September 26, 1980—the grey city journal10th Floor Hyde Park Bank BuildingVeal Marsala $8.96Fresh Rainbow TroutCrabmeat Stuffing $7.95BAR LUNCH DINNER241-5600 Visit the ColonelKentucky Fried Chicken1513 E.

Cane was pouring beer down hischest, to facilitate the tanning process, andscreaming at the top of his lungs some wildand loathsome gibberish about wanting toget back to "sweet home New Jersey" — itwas then that I knew we were croaked,that we had blown our one chance to makethe perfect deal go down and that we nowwere hurtling full tilt into the dark heart ofthe American dream, without any way ofgetting out of these things twice as theMinnesota sage once said. We had failed tofind Rock in Chicago.Oh, we had heard the music all right. Inthe two months since we had blown into themid-american wasteland with the topdown on our rented '69 chevy with fuelieheads and a pair of mags that would havemade Trenton the rubber capital of theworld, we had covered every inch of thistank town searching for the sound, the newbuzz, the kind of magic that sets you free,with a backbeat you can't lose it, the kindof rock and roll that motivates your soulmakes your knees freeze and your bladderspatter makes you go in out and all about,the kind of music that comes from the col¬lege of musical knowledge. But all wefound was .... But this is getting ahead ofourselves.The first thing to remember about thecity of Chicago is that it is definitely amajor city for all kinds of music, from newwave to disco to blues bars and folk clubs.There are small and sweaty clubs in whichyou can hear talented but unknown localbands, and there are huge cavernous hock¬ey rinks in which you can hear the huge-cavernous sounds of huge cavernousgroups like Led Zep, and Ted Nuge, toname but two well known artistes who usehigh decible glottal feedback roars togalvanize their collective audiences. Theconcerts are easy to get to and easy to gettickets for — if you want to wait out in thecold in some alley somewhere overnight.The problem is the clubs, which all requirethat you show proof of being over 21, andusually require a picture I.D. This is a factof life in Chicago, and you better face itnow and make the best of it. For manynewcomers to Hyde Park, the various concert halls will be your only shot at rockheaven for a while."But this is getting off the point, themain thread, the MOTHERLODE!" Canescreamed and reached for the blotter. Hewas hallucinating badly now, and while Iam a drug-free man, his left side was be¬ginning to look like a bad strip of brokenasphalt on the Garden State Parkway.Still, he had a point: What were those largehalls like? What was their essence, theirinner being? Cane went into a long strangerap. . .Chicago Stadium: A cavernous, steel gird¬ed monstrosity that is not a particularlygood place to see a basketball or hockeygame, much less a music concert.Chicago Amphitheatre: Smaller and morecompact than the Stadium, it is still anenormous ancient arena designed forprizefights, convention floor battles andcattle shows. The Amphitheatre is only ashort taxi ride away from Hyde Park, butgood luck in finding a taxi after the con¬cert.The Aragon Ballroom: Also known as theAragon "Brawlroom", it is a mediumsized concert hall with unreserved seating.In 1979, a number of predominant "NewWave" acts performed here, but the pastyear has seen a return to booking acts of the head-banging heavy-metal kind popu¬lar with Chicago-area adolescents thatwear "Loop" t-shirts and whose sole socialstatement consists of "disco sucks". TheAragon concert experience begins withseveral hours of waiting outside in a sidealley before the doors open in order to get agood seat. You are then herded inside bystaff goons who act as if their previous em¬ployment had been at Altamont. Inside theacoustics are poor and the lines of sight notmuch better if you are not up in the veryfront since the seating consists of foldingchairs on the floor. However, the castlemotif interior and painted stars on the ceil¬ing that go back fifty-odd years when theAragon really was a dance ballroom,should keep you amused for awhile.Uptown Theater: Just down the streetfrom the Aragon and run also by JAMproductions ( a disreputable organizationfor several reasons) but a completely dif¬ferent experience altogether. It is a medi¬um sized concert hall (that really i\a con¬cert hall, unlike the Aragon) that is typicalof halls in other cities, such as the Palladi¬um in New York. The sound is generallyvery good and the seats are reserved al¬though usually over-priced. People whohave performed here include BruceSpringsteen, Roxy Music, Bob Marley, theGrateful Dead and the Kinks."Madness, this is madness, exterminatethe brutes.. ." Cane was too bad off to con¬tinue, and as he tried to blow a version of"Blinded by the Light" in half steps on abroken coke bottle, I knew I had to takeover. Where else had we been? What plea¬sure palaces were beyond the horizon?Speaking of The Horizon, Rosemont'sanswer to the Stadium, not much could besaid. Larger and cleaner and more subur¬ban than the other major city rock halls,The Horizon seemed to be in a good position to become the major rock hall in thecity. But it's very, very hard to get to,Rosemont being a suburb out near O'Hareairport, and the new Hyde Parker —unless you have a car — will probably haveto miss such faves as Jackson Browne andJethro Tull.grey city journal The Auditorium Theater is probably themost beautiful theater in the city, as wellas the most perfect acoustically. For awhile in the early Seventies, however, thisfamous concert hall played host to such lu¬minaries as Humble Pie, Alice Cooper,and the J. Geils Band. Once the fans start¬ed setting the ancient wooden seats on firewith their encore lights, the managementsensibly took this wonderful hall out of therock arena. Still, every once in a while apop concert — someone like Paul Simon orAl Jarreau — will be presented at the Audi¬torium, and whoever the act you should gosee the place Better yet, go see the balletthere instead. . . but this is a rock articleand the Editor says to Keep On The Point,and since its crank time on the low road asdeadlines draw near, I'll let Cane takeover and tell you about some of the smallerhalls. Oh, I also forgot — don't ever go seea rock or soul show at the Arie Crown, theacoustic monstrosity found in McCormickPlace. This is so bad I completely lost thememory of the Jeff Beck concert that I al¬most heard once in the hall.Tuts: Probably the best new wave club inthe city. No seedy dive is this, the club wasjust renovated this past year and it is spa¬cious with a good size dancefloor. Most im¬portantly, Tuts features bands on the cut¬ting edge of rock n' roll in New York,London and locally, more often than anyother Chicago club. An unhealthy trendhas been happening at Tuts in recentmonths where bands have been coming onas late as 2:00 and 2:30 a.m. Cover is $5.Open until 4 A.M. and 5 A.M. on week¬ends.Park West: A young, large rock night-clubthat unfortunately resembles a crossbreed between a Northside singles bar anda suburban version of a Las Vegas nightclub. The tackiness of the Park-West — thechrome, plush carpet decor, the wall oflights at the back of the stage that blink onand off to he taped music, not to mentionthe two drink minimum which at $2.75 athrow adds another $6 to the $8 12 you willhave to pay to get in — may stir sentimen¬ tal yearnings for the Aragon. Yet the Park-West is very comfortable, the sound sys¬tem is excellent, and the variety of actsoffered is unmatched by any other club inthe city — from the Undertones to WeatherReports, from James Brown to JacksonBrowne, from Iggy Pop to Henny Young-man. Yet the The Parkwest is invariablyan expensive outing and many find theplastic atmosphere not worth the price."Okh uthreyg gabbagabba frazimrazim. . . " Cane was close to complete in¬coherence now, the thought of the ParkWest having driven him into a spastic ragethat made Joe Cocker look like a qualudefreak in the middle of the latest Fass¬binder snooze epic. Cane had once beeninto new wave, but had given it upafter he had been turned down for the jobof lead punk with the Trouble Boys, eventhough he had worked hard to cultivate anamazing resemblance to Lenny Kaye. Butthere were clubs that were alright. Neo'sand O'Banions are definitely must sees.These are the oldest punk rock new wavedance bars in the city, and since you probably will go to one of these at some pointI'll mention them here. Don't expect to seereal punks here cause those guys left townwith the Sex Pistols. These places aregreat to dance in, though, and this is whatit is all about anyway. The less hip you are,the better as far as I'm concerned, and thiscounts for pseudo punks as well as forpseudo-hippies. Neo, in fact, is great be¬cause it is completely tacky and vulgarand just a bit bordering on plastic, whichbefits its old past as a disco.If all this rock is too much for you, youcan try any number of blues bars in thecity, though you will probably end up at ei¬ther the Wise Fools, which is the bestNorth side Lincoln avenue blues club, orthe Checkerboard, on 43rd, where everyUniversity of Chicago undergraduate canlearn the fine art of slumming in the ghettoand feeling cool about it. If you just digblues, then the Checkerboard — on a goodnight when Buddy Guy or Junior Wellsdoesn't show up drinking or just plainbored - is a fine place. Biddy Milligans is aplace farther north that sometimes fea¬tures hot artists like Albert King. Theseare the big name blues acts, and you'llhave to learn your way around the other,but equally fine, bluesmen. In fact, go seeSon Seals sometime before he decides toleave the city. He grabs a predominantlywhite crowd when playing up north, but heis the logical successor to B.B. and AlbertKing and he deserves every bit of successhe gets.Or try some folk if you will, places likeThe Earl of Old Town, or Somebody Else'sTroubles. Or for jazz, hit the Jazz Show¬case. Just remember that nobody will letyou in because you are too young. . . . Thetape deck went flying out the window, savagely thrown by Cane in the grip of afrenzied glue flashback that had twistedhis frontal lobes into the shape of the At¬lantic City boardwalk. . ."Free Springsteen from himself!" Cane roared his premonitions of danger louder and louder aswe rolled on down towards the big muddy,waist deep in the primal ooze of the creep *ing musical wilderness that we had encountered But soon it was all over, andCane sat in the back seat, curled up in thefetal position and clutching the cover ofPatti Smith's "Easter" like it was the lasthand of friendship in a world gone wild. . .In other words, go out and hear whatever music you can, and support local bands.Go see the big groups when you feel theneed, but open your ears to homegrownblues and folk and jazz. Take care of yourhealth, get plenty of rest.20 —Friday, September 26, 1980—theWiT"The University Campus Ministersinvite all new students toDinner at the UniversityReligious CentersSunday, Sept. 28, 5:00-7:00 P.M.Calvert House (Catholic) 5735 University Ave.Hillel Foundation (Jewish) 5715 Woodlawn Ave(Call 752-1127 to make a reservation)Bishop Brent House 5540 Woodlawn Ave.(Anglican)Baptist Student Union at CornellCornell Baptist Church 5001 S.

In HydePark, there is only the Medici. Ihave probably eaten at the Medician average of three or four times aweek over the last five years, and itssingularity has often made it a preferred alternative, even on nightswhen they don't have it all together,or when I am tired of being there somany nights in a row. It's comfort¬able because it never seems likegoing out to a restaurant: it's some¬where between "going out to din¬ner" and eating at home.Two people can get a mediumpizza and coffee for about $3.00 perperson, including tax and tip. Thepizza is not as sublime or intricate asEdwardo's reconstructed copy ofGiordano's stuffed pizza. Medicipizza is as inconsistent as its ser¬vice. Sometimes it is thick, puffy,and delicious — as good as any pizzain the city. Other times it is over¬cooked or limp, the cheese rubbery.But one goes to the Medici to be inthe Medici — not in search of the ul¬timate pizza. No beer or wine isserved, you may thank the Universi¬ty, but you can bring your own; cor¬kage fee 25c per person.The Berghoff is definitely one ofthe ten best restaurants in the city ofChicago, and the only good one leftin the Loop. Designed like an old Ba¬varian dining hall on the main floor,as well as having smaller sizedrooms in the basement, The Bergh¬off has absolutely the best Germanfood in the city, as well as having thefastest service in the world. Thewaiters are among the highest paidwaiters this side of the Iron Curtain,and usually give their best whenthey are most rushed. Between sixand nine p.m. on most nights youwill have to wait a bit for seating,but when you get a place you will beable to order great dishes like theHungarian Goulash or the Wien-erschnitzel or a number of other spe¬cialties. And the best thing about theplace is that the prices are very in¬expensive for a good restaurant:from four to six dollars a meal, andthat includes the best dark rye inChicago as well as the best creamedspinach in the universe. The bestdessert is the cheese cake, but thestrawberry shortcake comes a closesecond. The Berghoff is close to theEl and the I.C., located at 17 W.Adams, right off State street. No res¬ervations are required, and dress iscasual but neat — no torn jeans.Mon-Sat 11 am-9:30; for info call427-3170. FoodWhen you start to get sick of theMedici and the fact that the serviceis horrible and that everyone aroundyou is in your Friday afternoonScience Lab or else works at theCTS, when the pseudo-hippie moodmusic that they play as backgroundsound at Eduardo's makes you re¬gret that you ever threw away yourcopy of Led Zep III, when even thejoys of Nicky's begins to wear off,then Gino's — East or West — isyour place. While West is located onever popular Rush Street, East canbe found close by off Michigan, andmay be a better bet on a weekend be¬cause it is much larger than West.The pizza, while not as thick as theGiordano/Eduardo's kind, is stillvery, very good, with a wonderfullayer of meat sauce on top of a softbut not soggy crust. Gino's is definitely one of the finer places to eatwhen you can get up north, and besure to carve your name into thewall near where you sit — it's okay,everyone does it.

Noreservations needed, but expect towait.,The Creperie is a very intimatebut informal place on North Clarkstreet, where things are not usuallyvery intimate or informal. Crepesare the thing here, and for a reason¬able price you can choose from a va¬riety of meat and vegetable dishes.The chicken and spinach-mushroomcrepes are among the best, but thedelicacy of the north side is the choc¬olate dessert crepes which will placeyour taste buds in a place very closeto Nirvana. Reservations are notneeded, but it's suggested that onweekends you get there a bit early,because the place will be packed.The best way to get here is to takethe Clark street bus, but the Broad¬way will take you within a block ofThe Creperie if you miss that Clark.This is a very good place to go eitherbefore or after going to a film at theParkway Theater, which is about ablock or two south of the restaurant.Bring your own wine, though, be¬cause they don't always serve thebest. Or even the cheapest. All in all,a very fine place to spend an eve¬ning. A word fromgrey city staffstomachsGertie's is not 6 restaurant. This isan ice cream parlor, probably thelast true ice cream parlor in thewestern hemisphere, and the onlyplace in Marquette Park that I amgoing to write about ... all the otherplaces are too good to reveal to youscreaming hoardsof over-intellectual type who don't care about Chicagoanyway, so I won't tell you aboutthem. But Gertie's, this is heaven ina double dip dish. Take the 55thstreet bus to Kedzie and walk to 57thand you've got it made. Try the Trip¬le Tummy Buster if you can handleit — it once had one and I was in acoma for a week, and it was one ofthe best weeks in the last two years,everything felt like chocolate chip.Plus, it's next door to the Colony the¬ater where you can see first runmovies for some outrageously lowprice.The Hyde Park Coffee Shop. Howcan I describe countless hours spentdrinking coffee as the waitressbrought us our French Dip sand¬wiches while the sun began to rise onanother Hyde Park day? How can Itell you about the countless heartbreaks, drug overdoses, intellectualarguments, bad vibes, talks aboutsex and life, about school and thepast and the future, about existenceitself? This is the one place that ev¬eryone discovers for themselves, ineffect recreating anew the Coffeeshop as each new Hyde Parker usesthe tacky booths and bad food as abackdrop to the continuing late nightdrama of life in at the University ofChicago. The place is open 24 hours— a fact to make it the existentialcenter of the community. The eggsare great after staying up all nightwriting a paper; the French Dip isamazing after drinking all night atthe Tiki (which deserves a review allits own). I met one waitress in hereonce that didn't even know what wason the menu ... all in a night's workat the Coffeeshop. Needless to say, Ilove this place and I think everyoneshould and no doubt will go here anumber of times during their stay inHyde Park. Located at the corner of53rd and Hyde Park Boulevard, andyou won't need reservations. Valois is the greatest, finest, mostchic, most devastatingly haute co-ture place that you will ever find inHyde Park. Of course, you will haveto completely change your definitionof chic, but that's okay, because thecops and senior citizens and 53rdstreet burnouts don't even knowwhat chic means, and don't care,and for that matter neither shouldyou. After you stand in line in thisrestaurant, which is really a cafete¬ria, and sample their chicken pot pieor baked chicken or the ever popularham or even just a salad or two, youwill realize that the true power elitein Hyde Park, the denizens of what¬ever subculture this tank town has tooffer, eat regularly at Valois. Valois... the name inspires fond memoriesof nights spent on the French Ri¬viera, of early morning hours spentsipping expresso with PrincessGrace, talking of Caroline and herproblems with Junot, sharing a Gi-tane before jumping out the balconywindow as Prince Ranier comesthrough the door with a sawed offshotgun screaming something inSpanish, still breathing as I walkedaway . . . and remember, it's pro¬nounced "Valoize." Don't blow it.Valois is located on 53rd near theShort Stop Co-op, and is open forbreakfast, lunch and Dinner,i/de Pa/'A corSTAUFE E Ribs 'n' Bibs — 53rd and Dorchester.Even if you have never liked barbecued spare ribs before, give these atry. The ribs are nice and meaty, thesauce is some of the best you'll everfind, and they are almost alwayswell prepared. The sandwiches areall good, though you can do betterthan their Bronco Burgers. Thechicken is more Expensive thenneighboring Harolds, and someclaim not even as good. But if youlike barbecue sauce on your chicken,the extra money is worth it. The onlydisadvantage is the price. You canfind many cheaper meals in HydePark. Only pick up or delivery areavailable, and the delivery usuallytakes an hour or more.

Will fares go up? down? Sideways?Who knows? Neither the weird people in Washington nor the wonderful ones in WallaWalla to be sure. Who cares? Well, you do — or should. Because up is more likely thandown and if you buy your ticket now for future travel you protect yourself in most casesagainst any future fare changes. Just don't change your departure flight, for if you do,you'll have to pay the fare prevailing the day you make the change.Meanwhile another good guess as to WHAT'S NEXT is that as a result of jet fuel priceincreases there will be drastic cutbacks in the frequency of service and number of seatsavailable on many routes.

The smooth, voluminousvoice easily filled the large room. TidemanGlassglied, drama coach extraordinaire,was giving his last performance, and itwas requiring all the skills he had amassedin his half-century of keeping the millionsamused. For many years the voice of TheMumbler, a famous radio character. Tideman now felt reduced to a lesser part in alurid script as he shuffled to the far side ofhis walnut desk, escaping the eager pur¬suit of Paul Clinton, his youngest pupil.Through broad arched windows, the ever-active eyes Of the former Mumbler brieflyglimpsed the well-groomed parade of On¬tario Avenue pedestrians several floorsbelow his fashionable studio in the venera¬ble Beaux Artes building. It was fittingthat these happy people striding down themain boulevard of America's toot capitalshould be ignorant of his terror, people hehad regarded as nothing more than ornaments of his success, of no greater or lesser value than his well-cleaned windows orwell polished parquet. It was also fittingthat Paul, of late Glassglied's pride andjoy whose youthful blonde majesty Glassg¬lied had taken considerable pains toparade before other aging pariphiliants,should now threaten an ignominious anddissonant end to Glassglied's well-modulated career. Paul was an aspiringactor, one of many — along with the elderly and portly matrons to whom Glassgliedwas more kin than he cared to admit andless kind than he cared to have known —who provided quite a tidy sum for retire¬ ment years. But Paul didn't often pay, andhe didn't pay nearly as often or as much tohis teacher as his teacher paid to Paul.And as untutored as he may have been, thepupil had greater native ability to give aperformance than did the instructor.Paul's fired delft blue eyes raced aroundthe elegantly empty room searching forsomething, anything with which to finishthe gruesome job which he resolved to ac¬complish, in a rare display of tenacity forone of those young men who seem ofgreater promise than production. Glassg¬lied hoped the incensed protege would notfind the lengthy shears which were lyingsomewhere about. These shears, in fact,were the instruments of his first contactwith the brawling boy who now bore doom.With the scissors Glassglied had oncecarefully clipped a photograph out of a yel¬lowed section of one of those questionablenewspapers nurtured by the questionablesubculture towards which he paid quiet al¬legiance. In the midst of the tabloid, the ar¬cadian form and aryan face, though dis¬torted into the vulgar positions of an inexperienced boy on-the-make, caughtthe dimming eyes of the all too experi¬enced pedophile. Paul was something special: the matrician patrician. The wellmuscled back now arched over a largetable and grasped the soon to be called"fatal" instrument. After a few wellturned declarations, Glassglied wouldhave shown a stream of crimson down hisbloated shirtfront had this not alreadybeen the garment's hue. The powerfulyoung man slashed away at the strugglingolder man and soon the younger's black undershirt grudgingly displayed the life'sblood which his teacher was unable to re¬veal. The shouted abuses came as swiftlyand as surely as the swipes of the blade."His voice is already straining," thoughtthe master at the end — it gave him no lit¬tle satisfaction.26,, , Fr'day, September 26, 1980—the grey city iournal. i ft 4 • » « ■ i V •-Texas InstrumentsSlimline Business Analyst -11financial calculatoruuith statistics andneuu Constant fTlemory ” feature.INTEREST RATE PEIPERIOD.Enters or computes periodicinterest rates.NUMBER OF PERIODS*Enters or computes the numberof compounding periods.PROFIT MARGIN.>Compute item cost, sellingprice, and gross profit margin.PRINCIPAL/INTEREST/-Splits a loan payment intoprincipal and interest.MEMORY.,Convenient, 4-key memory forstorage, recall, sum to memory,and exchange memory withdisplay.

AresMAA: Your latest LP, "Gradually Going Tor¬nado," was a fine continuation of the sound of"One of a Kind," except that Jeff Berlin, yourbassist, now does vocals. When did you decideto change from a more instrumental sound toone with vocal parts?BB: Actually, we never made a decision to bean instrumental band. We always consideredthat the quartet could use or not use anythingelse it might like at any time. Where we comefrom, it's iust an open-ballgame. You canplay off or use whatever you like at any par¬ticular time. Touring is harder, of course.We're reluctant to make anything too essen¬tial which we can't take on the road. But ob¬viously, Jeff's on the road with us and he'salways wanted to sing, so that's great. We'vealways wanted singing anyway.MAA: It seems that the song "Age of Infor¬mation" on the new LP expresses the senti¬ments you conveyed at your concert last yearwhen you dedicated "Beelzebub" to all thoseAmerican housewives listening to Linda Ron-stadt on their kitchen radios. How about lis¬tening to some Bill Bruford?BB: / know what you mean. It's nice to be onthe radio, but it's hard. Radio is really tightthese days. You got Billy Joel and Linda Ron-stadt. It looks that for the next two yearsyou're going to get heavy metal importedfrom England.MAA: Oh God.BB: So I'll catch you in a couple of years'time. Because a band like us, obviously, is notgoing to be allowed on the airwaves if that'sthe direction of American music.MAA: I thought dinosaur rock had died.BB: It's very big in England, this heavymetal business. It's the thing. Very passe,simplistic, a macho kind of thing. Very childish in a way. I don't know, maybe I'm gettingold. I just assume that the people who want tolisten to our music are very similar to the peo¬ple in the band. I just assume that they want Bill Brufordto bring their own brains to the concert, too.It's just an assumption that if we're adults,you're adults also. I'm out of that fascist rock,Nuremberg Rally kind of rock.MAA: It seems that all your life you've beendoing music which is thought provoking, hon¬estly. I've always liked the multi-dimension¬ ality of it. It's not just somebody poundingaway at you.BB: Yeah, it's carefully arranged. We feel wecover a broad, characterful of things. For example, there's no relationship between "Palewell °ark" a simple tune based on piano,and say, "Gothic 17," which is a manic, ma-Unreeling Chicago’s Filmcontinued from p. 17sit near the entrances.Admission to both theaters is $3. A dis¬count card, good for admission to both the¬aters, is available at either box office.Trying to duplicate the success of theParkway and the Varsity, the neighbor¬hood Hyde Park Theater, 5232 S. Harper,has also decided to go the revival route, be¬ginning October 3. Their first 30 programschedule (programs changed three times aweek), marked by no less than 20 pro¬grams lifted directly off recent and cur¬rent Parkway and Varsity schedules andcontaining none of the Parkway's moredaring entries, reeks of such desire. How¬ever, the theater does have the advantagesof being right in the neighborhood and ofhaving an admission of only $2.50, so per¬haps it is doing a service for people whofind the Parkway schedule attractive.Also, since it is not owned by the same the¬ater chain, and since this is, after all, onlytheir first schedule, maybe future sched¬ules will be more interesting. (Incidental¬ly, the one highly recommended film onthe current schedule is John Milius'sbreathtaking The Wind And The Lion onOct. 26 28.) Nevertheless, even if theschedule improves, the theater itself willalso have to be improved before movieviewing at the Hyde Park Theater be¬comes a pleasurable activity. The floorsare extremely sticky and grimy, the radia¬tors whistle in the winter, the theater isoften filled with screaming neighborhoodkis, and TV shows have been known to em¬anate loudly from the vicinity of the proj¬ection booth.Finally, if you have a car and want to seeParkway/Varsity/Hyde Park-style programming in a very different locale, thereis the Homewood Theater at Dixie High-28 — Friday, September 26, 1980—the way and Ridge Road in suburban Ho¬mewood. Admission is $2.50.xHrst and Second Run HousesIf you are interested in current cinemaand are not willing to wait a month or two,there are numerous first-run movie housesaround the area. Generally these range inprice from $3.50 to $4.50, with Plitt or Rosediscount tickets often accepted. Somefilms tend to play in only one area theater.Among these are, most notably, foreignfilms, which tend to open at the Biograph,Lincoln and Fullerton, the Cinema, 151 E.Chicago, and sometimes at the ThreePenny (across the street from the Bio¬graph). Also there is the long-running mid¬night classic, The Rocky Horror PictureShow, playing every Friday and Saturdayexclusively at the Biograph. More often,however, films will open in several placesaround the area. In these cases, film viewing pleasure can be enhanced by matchingthe type of theater to the movie. This alsoenables you to learn your way around theChicago area. Films like Halloween, for-example, are best seen in suburban shopping mall theaters along with a bunch ofscreaming teenagers. Two of the best arethe Ford City, 79th and Cicero, which alsofeatures the best popcorn of any area theater, and the Evergreen (98th and West¬ern, Evergreen Park), which also acceptsRose Tickets. On the other hand, films likeApocalypse Now are more suitable forlarge, clean, comfortable Near North theaters with large screens and good soundsystems. Two especially recommendedare the McClurg Court, 330 E. Ohio, whichhas an incredibly large, curved screen andaccepts Rose Tickets, and the Esquire, 58E. Oak, which has very comfortable seatsgrey city journal and accepts Plitt Tickets. With theMcClurg Court, however, be advised not tosit near the entrances, which lack doorsand are often filled with noisy filmgoerswaiting for the next show. Meanwhile,films like The Blues Brothers are most appropriate in large, grimy Downtown the¬aters like the Chicago (175 N. State) or theState-Lake (across the street). Both ac¬cept Plitt Tickets. Finally, "little" filmslike My Bodyguard are best seen in littletheaters like the Water Tower, 835 N. Mi¬chigan, in the Water Tower ShoppingCenter on the 2nd floor, which also acceptsPlitt Tickets except on Fridays and Satur¬days. If you go there, be prepared for theadded bonus of numerous trailers beforethe show (last time, I saw six). The WaterTower, however, does have a good policyof barring (potentially annoying) childrenunder age 6.On the other hand, if you are interestedin current cinema and are willing to wait amonth or two, there are several excellentsecond run movie houses around the city.These show double bills of recent moviesat bargain prices (usually under $2). Mostrecommended are the Village, North andClark, and the Bryn Mawr, 1125 W.. BrynMawr.Of course, if you're willing to wait eyenlonger, there's always Doc Films, whjch ischeaper yeti, albeit in. 16 mm.The Chicago Film FestivalFinally, in addition to all the year roundfilm offerings, Chicago hosts a yearly internatifenal film festival. This year it willbe held on November 7-26, at several areatheaters (to be announced). For further information, call 644 3400. cabre kind of story. A story about a manic,maladjusted kid in an attic. It's not to me onetype of music necessarily. It's just an Englishband going through a whole lot of Englishtrips.MAA: What have you been listening to late¬ly?BB: Well, I’ve always been listening to TonyWilliams on the drums. He's fantastic. He'swhat people should be like. I've got a style onthe kit, but when it comes to American drum¬ming Tony Williams just eats the whole worldup.MAA: Where did you pick up John Clark onguitar? I recall going to the concert last yearand asking myself, where's Allan Holds-worth? (former U.K. and Bill Bruford gui¬tarist)BB: He was a friend of Allan Holdsworth's.He was working with Allan at the time. Allanwouldn't play any more. He always wants tokeep the back door open. He's kind of on theoutside.MAA: He just prefers to be in the studio, stayloose?BB: Yeah, he just doesn't want to tour. Hewants to stay at home. So, he sent John Clarkover for the gig.MAA: Oh, he was great.BB: It was a bit of luck since there are notmany people in England who could do orwould want to do the job. Clark has that English sort of guitar style which is an Englishsort of thing, and is quite nice.MAA: Anyone who knows your work wouldsurely ask you how you make that thrashing,really sharp sound?BB: You're referring to an old cymbal whichI used to have and is no longer with me. A bastard cymbal which had ugly parents.BB: It made a peculiar noise for about ninemonths and then it died the death.MAA: You were in some of the best bands ofthe 70's - Yes, King Crimson, U.K. and nowyou're in one of the better bands of the 80's.Do you still see the artists you worked with inthe past?BB: Yes, often. I see Robert Fripp all thetime. I see Steve Howe, Chris Squire. Ihaven't seen (Jon) Anderson for awhile. It'snot a big music scene in London anyway, somostly the musicians live quite on top of eachother. Lots of competition, rivalry. Obviouslyvery understated in an English way. In Lon¬don, nobody would dream of competing orbeing seen to compete. It would be far too infor a dig. But, huh, they're nice people, most¬ly. I've been lucky to play with some mostimaginative musicians. They've got quite aninteresting point of view. Though chops wise,the English by and large, don't have nearly asmuch ability, technically as Americans. Butthey usually put their ability to quite imagina¬tive use, I find. Quite often, more so thanAmericans.MAA: How do you find American audiencesversus European ones?BB: Much more enthusiastic. Generally,much more buoyant, keener and excitedabout the whole thing. I'm much morepleased to have you.MAA: There's always been that myth aboutthe Europeans being much more into progres¬sive music.BB: In a way, they are. But they're muchmore fashion conscious which America is not.It takes much longer for conservative, oldAmerica to switch its musical tastes. It's likea great, big beast switching very slowly fromLinda Ronstadt to Billy Joel. That took twoyears while England is very quick. It has afashion every six weeks and you're either inor out of fashion. And if you're not even play¬ing the fashion game, like we're not, then theydon't even know what to do with you at all.You go on and play, and they don't know howto respond. Because the newspapers dictatehow they're going to respond while in Ameri¬ca it's radio.MAA: You think you were fever in the fashiongame?BB: In England? Oh yes, in the early 70's twas very fashionable. I was bees knees; fash¬ion boy conscious. But now that type of music,or what I do, is not that popular. I'm now outof fashion; they don't know what to do withme. It's very sweet, cute.MAA: How long do you plan on playing?BB: As long as possible, I'm going to try tomake the name Bruford synonymous withquality; be it a concert or an album._FIVE MAGAZINES YOU'LL GIVEHIGH MARIS IN THE 1980$.Our publications aim to make this decademore abundant.
