Special EditionThe Chicago MaroonviVolume 92, No. 5 The University of Chicago ©Copyright 1982 The Chicago Maroon Tuesday, December 7, 1982Freshman dies after fall at Woodward CourtBy Margo HablutzelWoodward Court residents werestunned following the accidentaldeath of an Upper Wallce fresh¬man shortly before midnight Fri¬day.Lisa Good, a pre-law studentfrom Iowa, was at a private partyon the fourth floor of Upper Rick-ert when she fell through an openwindow at the west end of the hall¬way. According to eyewitness re¬ports, Good walked down the corri¬dor, stopped to look into abathroom where a number of stu¬dents had gathered, and continueddown the hall to sit in a window atthe end. While nearly fifteen stu¬dents watched, she fell through thewindow and landed headfirst on aconcrete service ramp some fivestories below. Her death was in¬stantaneous.Although Good had been talkingwith a group of students just beforeshe walked down the hallway, no¬body was near her when she fell.After receiving a call from anundetermined source, security po¬lice called the Fire Department.The FD then sent an ambulancewhich arrived within 10 minutes ofthe accident. Edward Turkington,dean of student housing, who wascalled by the resident heads oncall, arrived around midnight andsaid that when he arrived Goodwas in the ambulance. She wastaken to Billings Hospital emer¬gency room where doctors pro¬nounced her dead of massive braindamage.When he was informed of Good’sdeath Turkington called Dean ofStudents Charles O’Connell, whocontacted Good’s parents in Iowa.Good’s roommate was hystericalafter the accident and has gone toher sister’s home on the North Sidealong with Good’s boyfriend, whowas described as “seriously de¬pressed.’’ Turkington said that theUniversity is trying to be “as help¬ful and supportive as we can underthe circumstances.’’ Immediately following the acci¬dent, rumors and conflicting infor¬mation circulated through the dor¬mitory. An early story said thatGood had fallen out of a window inUpper Wallace, and since her roomfaces into the courtyard many peo¬ple assumed that she had falleninto the courtyard. The UpperRickert window opens over a con¬crete ramp from the basement thatextends to 58th St.Another account said that the window was closed at the time andhad given way when Good leanedagainst it. However, the windowwas fully opened and the screenswhich had been in place at the be¬ginning of the year had been re¬moved.Turkington said that the Admin¬istration plans to “look at theissue” of the missing screens butadded that “the problem is not ex¬clusive to Woodward Court. We putscreens up and they are frequently taken down by students.”He added that students at Wood¬ward Court, Pierce Tower, and theShoreland have been reprimandedin the past for “hanging and sit¬ting” out of the windows.Turkington said that there are noimmediate plans to put up re¬straining bars, but said that “wewill take a look at the physical con¬ditions and see if there is some¬thing we might want to do.”Turkington also commented onrumors that Good was intoxicatedat the time of her fall, saying that“she may have had something todrink” but that it could not be con¬firmed. At least one keg of beerwas at the party, in violation ofUniversity regulations and statelaws prohibiting the possession orconsumption of alcohol by personsunder 21 years of age. Turkingtonnoted that the party was a privateparty and added that it is veryhard, practically and legally, to po¬lice the actions of students in theresidence halls.••The question of students whodrink is a problem at every institu¬tion that I know of,” he said. “Wedo plan to reexamine what we do. simply because (in these circum¬stances) we ought to.”In light of Northwestern Univer¬sity’s new, highly stringent alcoholpolicy, stemming from an incidentin which an intoxicated studentwas killed while trying to do push¬ups on Sheridan Road, a number ofU of C students have speculatedwhether the University will Cghtenits alcohol policy. So far, no actionhas been planned, since alcoholwas not confirmed as a factor inGood’s death.There is no evidence to suggestthat Good committed suicide, assome radio reports have speculat¬ed. According to Turkington.Good's death was “a terrible, trag¬ic accident.”Good is survived by her parentsand a younger sister. Jennifer. Thefuneral is this afternoon in Oska-loosa. Iowa. A memorial servicewill be held Wednesday night at 7p.m. in Bond Chapel. BernardBrown, dean of Rockefeller Chap¬el. will officiate, and the residentheads of Upper Wallace are parti¬cipating in the service. Everyoneis welcome to attend. .it keeps comingback to Lisa’Lisa GoodRevenue shortages force cutsBy William RauchThe University’s unrestrictedbudget is being cut because the an¬ticipated unrestricted revenue forthis year is almost $4 million lessthan was earlier predicted.President Gray announced thatthe first step in reducing expensesis to put a freeze on non-faculty hir¬ing. Non-faculty vacancies will notbe filled as they arise except forextraordinary reasons or unless anoffice with a vacancy can fill it andstill remain within its reduced bud¬get.Faculty salaries, financial aidprograms, library acquisitions,and “selected programs and initia¬tives of special promise” will notsuffer from the budget cuts, Graysaid.Gray said that the revenue lossesare expected in three categories.Tuition income will be down$400,000 because of a drop in gradu¬ate enrollment, especially in theHumanities and Social SciencesDivisions. Cash investments aredown $1.5 million because of lowercash balances and falling interestrates. Indirect cost recovery in¬come, which is reimbursementfrom the government for expenses arising from work done under fed¬eral grants, will be $2.2 million lessthan anticipated. The decline in in¬direct cost recovery funding is na¬tionwide and currently being in¬vestigated.Gray said that the average annu¬al growth of the University’sunrestricted income will probablybe 5.5 to 7 percent in 1983-84. Since1979 unrestricted income hasgrown 13 percent.Gray said that the Universitywill act to increase unrestricted in¬come but that the University’slong-term stability and funding ofcurrent priorities depends on bud¬get cuts. She said that “actiontaken now will have a positive im¬pact for next year and beyond.Without such action, the problem(of declining revenue) would bedoubled for 1983-84 and after.“We are seeing a decline in an¬ticipated unrestricted revenue, adecline that indicates a slowing offuture growth as well, and that re¬quires us to take measures now toreduce expenditures. Several ofour peer universities are embark¬ing on the same course,” Graysaid.All University offices and deanshave received new budget targets for the rest of the academic year.Gray said that “somewhat dif¬ferent combinations of cost reduc¬tions” will help offices meet theirtargets. For instance, she said thatreductions in Computation Centercharges, to go into effect Jan. 1,will lower expenses for officeswhich have high computing ex¬penses. Following Lisa Good’s death,many Woodward Court residentsstruggled to cope with the tragicloss. As word spread throughoutthe dormitory, many reacted withshock, disbelief, and horror. Manystudents who had been at theUpper Rickert party and those whohad known her were almost hys¬terical, and even those in otherparts of the building were veryupset."I heard a crash,” said one stu¬dent who had been at the partyuntil a few minutes before the ac¬cident. “I thought that they hadjust gotten rowdy and thrown thekey out the window.”“I saw people just walkingaround,” one resident head saidthe next day.A, resident added. “Everyonewas a zombie, just walking aroundor sitting and staring. We were try¬ing not to think about it, but youcouldn't help it.”Many students stayed upthrought the night talking andcomforting one another. Severalwomen who were at a hall party onRape suspect caughtBy Robin KirkThe arrest of a would-be pursesnatcher resulted in the suspect’sadmission of two recent Hyde Parkrapes last week. Both victims wereUniversity undergraduates.Bryon Thompson, 18, of 5202 S.Cornell, was arrested outside of hishome Nov. 29 at 9:15 p.m. after aspecial investigative team wasalerted by residents who heard awoman scream. Thompson, who fitthe description of the rapist givenby the two students, made his ad¬mission later at police head¬quarters.Both rapes were committed atknifepoint in the early morning. On Nov. 19, the rapist approached onestudent and forced her from thestreet to an area behind the build¬ing at 5220 Hyde Park Blvd. Fourdays later, he followed another stu¬dent home and trapped her in thevestibule of her apartment in the5400 block of Hyde Park Blvd.Based on information given bythe two women, police called in aspecial gang crimes unit to inves¬tigate the area Nov. 24. AfterThompson was arrested, one of thevictims made a positive identifica¬tion in a line-up. The secondwoman is scheduled to view thesame line-up later todayThompson is currently beingheld on $100,000 bail. the second floor of Lower Wallaceformed an escort service for guestsof their party and the Upper Rick¬ert party who were unable or un¬willing to go home alone.Saturday afternoon. WoodwardCourt resident heads met with Ed¬ward Turkington. dean of studenthousing, and Herman Sinaiko,dean of students in the College.That night the Woodward Courthouses held meeting in which resi¬dents were given a factual accountof the accident and were encour¬ages to ask questions and talkabout their feelings. Residentheads asked that students who feltthey needed to talk or who knew ofsomeone who was having a diffi¬cult time to contact a resident heador resident assistant.Although she had only been atthe University for a few months,Lisa Good had made several closefriends. Her resident heads saidthat she was somewhat shy. butfriends said that Good was well-known and well-liked in LowerRickert, where her boyfriend lives.Following her death, one residentcompared Lower Rickert to “amorgue.”A resident in another housespoke of how Woodw ard Court resi¬dents were reacting. “We try totalk about other things,” he said.“But it keeps coming back toLisa.”“I sat on my bed (that night),just staring at the wall,” said afriend who had been in Good'sFrench class, and recalled thatGood had a “wicked sense ofhumor.”Some students have discussedestablishing a memorial in Good’shonor, and most of the WoodwardCourt houses voted to send cardsand flowers to her family. Butmany residents still cannot over¬come the shock of that night“She was only a first-year,” onesaid over and over. “She was onlyeighteen.”The CommunityLocal state rep seeks Republican nod for mayorBy Cliff GrammichBernard Epton, a state representativefrom the 24th District, announced last weekhis intention of running for the Republicannomination for mayor of Chicago. Epton, aHyde Park attorney, is serving the last daysof his term as a state representative, a posthe has held for the past 14 years.In his candidacy for the mayor’s office,Epton stated that his first priority, as hestated it has been for his tenure as a staterepresentative, is improvement in educa¬tion. A close second priority is the reductionof crime. Epton also stated that he wouldalso deal with employment in Chicago asmayor, but added that the mayor is not ableto do as much as other officials in differentlevels of government to alleviate this prob¬lem. In dealing with these problems, Eptonemphasized that he could act only as fiscalresponsibility allowed him to, noting that asmayor he would try to hold the line ontaxes.As a state representative, Epton foughtfor the abolition of the state sales tax, whichhe called the worst type of tax. He voted forthe institution of the state income tax whenformer Governor Richard Ogilvie proposedit. As a representative, Epton asked for theabolition of the state sales tax and the do¬uble of the state income tax to make up forrevenue lost from the abolition of the salestax.Epton also supported a limit on thenumber of terms a mayor could serve.Epton said that if the President of the Unit¬ed States should have a limit on the numberof terms he could serve, he believed that theMayor of Chicago should also, adding thatno mayor should have “a life-long tenure”on the mayor’s office.Epton stated thai he would like to see Chi¬cago operate under a two-party system Heblamed the media for portraying an imageof Chicago as a Democratic town and a “Re¬publican wasteland,” adding that Chicago “belongs to the people, not the DemocraticParty.” Epton stated that he hopes to put aslate together to run with him, but said hehad not done so yet, as his candidacy wasonly a week old. He said that he hoped theBernard Epton seeks Republican nomin¬ation for mayor.Republican party would back some candi¬dates in the non-partisan aldermatic elec¬tions, and added that he would support allcandidates the Republicans backed in cityelections, no matter where his loyalties forthe mayoral race lie.In running as a Republican candidate,Epton will attempt to become the first Re¬publican mayor elected since William HaleThompson was re-elected mayor as a Re¬publican in 1927. The Republican candidatehas not run a close race since BenajaminAdamowski lost to Richard J. Daley by150,000 votes in 1963. Eight years earlier,former Fifth Ward Alderman Robert Mer-riam, as a Republican candidate, ran aclose race against Daley. Merriam and Ada¬ mowski had at one time been consideredDemocrats. When asked if this factor couldhave enhanced their mayor chances, Eptonstated that Merrian and Adamowski weremavericks and backed whom they felt werethe right candidates and issues, be they Re¬publican or Democrat. Epton stated that hehas done the same, noting that he has nevervoted a straight-party ticket, nor does he in¬tend to do so now.As a state representative, Epton statedthat he has disagreed with Republican gov¬ernors when he felt they were in the wrongand sided with Democratic legislators togain legislation on which they both agreed.Epton as a Republican candidate will try tounite Republicans in Chicago and create astronger party force.That Republicans in Chicago need to bedrawn out can be attested to by OwenPulver, current Fifth Ward RepublicanCommitteeman. Pulver noted that the FifthWard is lacking sixty Republican electionjudges, and he feels that the addition ofthese judges would guarantee that Republi¬cans in the ward would get their opinions ex¬pressed in elections. He stated that the job isideal for college students, requiring only oneday’s work and providing pay. Judges willbe needed in the primary election on Feb. 22and the mayoral general election on Apr.12.In Democratic mayoral politics, the city’s50 ward committeemen voted to endorseMayor Jane Byrne in her bid to win re-elec¬tion as mayor. Thirty-three voted yes to thequestion as to whether Byrne would be slat¬ed. Sixteen voted either present or no, whileone was absent. Fifth Ward CommitteemanAlan Dobry, a supporter of US Rep. HaroldWashington’s mayoral campaign, voted no.Party Chairman Ed Vrdolyak had wanted toagree to the endorsement of the mayor by avoice vote, but Dobry, on a motion secondedby Eighth Ward Committeeman JohnStroger, a supporter of Cook County State’s Attorney Richard Daley’s mayoral bid,forced a roll call vote. At present, the Demo¬cratic primary appears to have three can¬didates; Byrne, Daley, and Washington.In the Fifth Ward aldermanic race, fourcandidates have announced their intentionsto run. Current Alderman Larry Bloom willrun for re-election. Fifth Ward Committee¬man Alan Dobry will probably supportBloom’s candidacy. Frank Bacon, a SouthShore resident, has won the backing of theCitizens for the Democratic Party. JosephBertrand, the current Seventh Ward Aider-man, has been re-districted into the FifthWard and he will run for the office of FifthWard Alderman. Josie Brown Childs, aSouth Shore resident, is the fourth candi¬date. Childs had asked for the endorsementof the Citizens for the Democratic Party.HP residents cheercops after arrestA University of Chicago security officerand two Chicago detectives received an un¬usual accolade after arresting a suspectedthief at 5601 S. Drexel Friday afternoon: al¬most two dozen Hyde Park residents nearbyapplauded and cheered.U of C Officer David Norenburg and De¬tectives John Mulvay and Paul Bertucci hadchased the suspect, Robby Vaughn, 19, ashort distance before the arrest was made.Vaughn, on probation for auto theft, wascharged with burglary in the theft of a bat¬tery from a parked car. The area has had anumber of thefts from parked cars recent¬ly-“People came out of their apartments andoff their front porches and clapped for theofficers and praised them,” Area 1 propertycrimes unit Sergeant John Ward said, ad¬ding, “The response was unbelievable. It’snice to see that type of response from resi¬dents.”5234 S.

Thoughshe had no self-serving reason to be kindto me or her other friends, she gave ev¬erything of herself that she had to spare.In her room, where many evenings werespent, you knew that whoever you wereor wherever you had just been did notmatter if even anyone she knew caredabout you. She was more than “one ofthose friendly people” that you meet atfraternnities or private parties. Theclose friendships that she formed whileshe was here were made instantaneous¬ly. She took those who knew her right in¬side of her, and very quickly learned Lisa Goodwhat would make us laugh or feel bet¬ter.Lisa knew how to take the dullest cir¬cumstances that Hyde Park had to offerand create a good time. Her room wasfilled with countless relics of Americathat she knew how to make amusing.Whether she was chanting alone to thewords of Blondie records or just discus —the beauteous qualities of James Dean orthe Adam Ant poster on her ceiling, herwords alone seemed somehow cuddly.Ironically, she died wearing a button thatread simply “I’m so bored with theUSA.” She was not bored by it (exceptperhaps for the state of Iowa); it madeher laugh that the greatest land in theworld loved to surround itself with junk.But the buttons she had handed out to herfriends that read “I am loved” havetaken on some sort of supernatural quali¬ty, as has every picture of Debbie Harry,whose facial expressions bear a remark¬able resemblence to Lisa’s.
