Evans wasforced into a runoff by Toni Preck-winkle, and Harold Washingtonswept the 4th and 5th Wards on hisway to an upset victory in the Dem¬ocratic mayoral primary.With all of the precincts exceptthe 43rd reporting by Thursday,Bloom had received 14,111 votes,burying second-place finisherFrank Bacon with 2719 votes. Sev¬enth Ward Alderman Joseph Ber¬trand received 2627 votes, JosieBrown Childs was fourth with 955votes, Richard Julius LeVert wasfifth with 9868 votes, LindberghNorris finished sixth with 4656votes, Elliott A. Matthews, Sr.,who had thrown his support toFrank Bacon after withdrawing,got 245 votes, and Robert J. Moonreceived 211 votes in finishingeighth.In commenting on his resound¬ing victory, Bloom said he was“very pleased with the vote total,especially in precincts south of theMidway.” He said that the resultsproved that “blacks for Washing¬ton can still vote for a white aider-man because he can do a goodjob,” noting that this contradictedthe racially polarized results of themayoral race. Bloom, who credit¬ed his initial victory in 1979 to stu¬dents, again credited students witha significant role in his re-electionvictory. He said he received morethan 90 percent of the student vote,which had increased due to the in¬terest in Tuesday’s elections.In the upcoming general electioncampaign. Bloom said although hiscampaign machinery will be dis-° mantled to a large extent, severalmembers of his campaign will work for Washington in the upcom¬ing municipal general electionagainst Bernard Epton.Epton is a former Hyde Parkresident, where he represented the24th District in the Illinois GeneralAssembly. Epton is trying to be¬come the first Republican to winelection to the mayor’s office sinceWilliam Hale Thompson was re¬turned to the mayor’s office in1927.Bloom will also campaign forToni Reed Preckwinkle in the up¬coming election, and added thatthe issue of representation for theward will become “clear-out” nowthat the number of candidates hasbeen reduced. Preckwinkle hasbeen endorsed by the Independent Voters of Illinois-Independent Pre¬cinct Organization.In the 4th Ward, incumbent Al¬derman Timothy C. Evans appearsto have been forced into run-offwith results in from 60 of theward’s 61 precincts. Evans had re¬ceived 9396 votes, or 46.1 percent ofthe total. To be elected, a candi¬date needs a majority of the vote.Preckwinkle received 4797 votes,or 23.5 percent. Michael WayneSmith was third with 3389, MauricePerkins finished fourth with 1520,Betty B.

It has been described assuperfluous, ineffective, and ajoke.Vice-President Mike Aronson, under fire for his negative state¬ment about IHC in an article inTuesday’s Maroon, asked thegroup repeatedly, “Does anyonehave anything positive to say aboutIHC?” No one answered him; how¬ever, out of 22 representatives whocould be reached Wednesdaynight, at least half felt IHC couldbe saved.The current movement to dis¬band IHC started last Friday at ameeting of a subcommittee to theCouncil of Dorm Presidents whichfocuses on housing problems. One subcommittee member, ShorelandPresident Jim Poueymirou, said,“We discussed the problems withIHC, what it was created to do,what it did, and what it failed to do.The unanimous decision of thepresidents of the dorms was thataction had to be taken with regardto IHC.”Poueymirou attended Tuesday'smeeting and explained to the asse¬mbly why he felt it should disbandHe maintained that IHC has donenothing of importance for studentsin housing since 1971 w’hen it eli¬ minated maid service in the men'sdorms. IHC, he said, was original¬ly created in 1965 as a crisis-solv¬ing organization. At that time, thegroup worked successfully to foundcoed dorms. Should a major crisisarise today, Poueymirou believesanother group, the Council ofDorm Presidents, could easily andeffectively deal with it. This coun¬cil was formed three years ago bythen Director of Housing.

Re¬cently, this committee has beenlooking into the stress problems ofundergraduates here. Straus saidthat faculty members have beenincreasingly concerned with the“negative effects (of stress) onhow people learn and what peoplelearn.”The intensity of academic lifehere is reflected in the amount oftime students are in class Afterfour years at the University of Chi¬cago, an undergraduate has com¬pleted the equivalent of five yearsat Harvard in terms of classtime.This year, the delay of AutumnQuarter until after late JewishHigh Holidays and the abandon¬ment of Winter Weekend arethought to have added to the inten¬sity of the academic environment,bringing proposals such as thenine-week quarter or a readingperiod to the forefrontcontinued on page 16 are registered for the draft beforethey can receive federal financialaid. At the same time, two-dayhearings began before the HousePost-Secondary Education Sub¬committee concerning the effect ofthe draft/aid law which is due totake effect July 1.Representative Paul Simon (D.,Ill.) headed the hearings which fo¬cused on the Department of Educa¬tion rules requiring colleges anduniversities to verify compliancewith the registration law beforehanding out federal financial aidchecks.The administrative burden ofverifying aid applicants' registra¬tion placed upon the University bythe proposed measures would be“considerable” according toEleanorBorus, associate directorof College Aid. University officialsfrom around the country have alsovoiced complaints concerning theprobable need for the hiring of twoto four more employees to handlethe massively increased paper¬work that would result from theDepartment of Education's plansKip Cheroutes, legislative assis¬tant to Schroeder, said yesterdaythat Schroeder’s proposals wereaccepted favorably by both Demo¬crats and Republicans. He added,however, that “the real problem"is the bill’s being referred to theArms Services Committee“This committee is rather tun¬nel-visioned and it is to getting thebill approved by them that we aredirecting our attention now .” U of C President Hanna Gray is¬sued a statement last Novemberopposing the Law's implementa¬tion Students who have begun toapply for 1983-84 federal grantsand loans are already being askedwhether they have registered forthe draft. The action coincides witha flurry of Congressional activitywhich includes bills to repeal, ap¬propriate. and strengthen the law .“Everybody got caught up in thisbig rush to punish the kids whoweren’t registering without think¬ing about the burden it would placeon universities.” Schroeder wasquoted as saying in the ChicagoTribune.Because of the number of univer¬sities expressing opposition to thedraft/aid law. congressional ob¬servers say a bill like Schroeder'shas a good chance of passing Pas¬sage of Schroeder's bill wouldallow for more time to consider thelaw and perhaps for finding an al¬ternative to registration verifica¬tion by the universities and col¬leges."The honest reason that we areadvocating the delay is to stall thewhole thing so that the Court willeventually knock it out,”Cheroutes said. “At any rate, if thelaw does take effect July 1, schoolswould have to do a tremendousamount of backtracking in order toverify draft registration of thosestudents who have already ar¬ranged federal aid for next year.That would be too unreasonable,”he said.AMAKELATE NIGHTSGREAT NIGHTSATMOREY'SDELIFROM 7:00 PM - 10 PM• Hot, jumbo -j 59Pastrami sandwiches JL• Jumbo Turkeysandwiches• Jumbo ItalianSausage sandwichesCOME TO MORRY’S• Great Food• Incredible low prices• Fantastic savings• Friendly serviceMORRY’S LATENIGHT SPECIAL“BEST BUY IN TOWN” THE CENTER FOR URBAN STUDIESPUBLIC AFFAIRS PROGRAMandCOMMITTEE ON PUBLIC POLICY STUDIESPresents a Lecture byCUSHING DOLBEAREFounder and Director of theNational Low Income Housing CoalitiononLOW INCOME HOUSINGMonday February 28, 19833:00 p.m. - Pick 421 Does the End ofthe Term Mean theEnd of Your HospitalInsurance Protection?Short Term Hospital plan providesfast low cost "interim'' coverage ifyou're in between jobs, or recentlygraduated.It offers a choice of 60, 90, 120,or 180 day protection.

Imported by Martlet Importing Co., Inc., Great Neck, N.Y. © 1982.NewsLevine speaks on the liberal and martial artsBy Darrell WuDunnDean of College Donald N. Levine willspeak on “The Liberal Arts and the MartialArts’’ Sunday in order “to throw out a chal¬lenge to the students of this community toengage in a sustained and focused debateabout the character of liberal education inour time.”Levine’s talk at 8:30 p.m. Sunday is thelast in this quarter’s Woodward Court Lec¬ture Series.The lecture will be divided into two parts.The first will cover “the evolution of liberalarts in the West and martial arts in theEast,” Levine said. The second part willraise points about the libearal arts today,using the martial arts as a “model” for clar¬ifying these points.Also covered will be different kinds oftraining programs, the relation of liberaltraining and utilitarian training, and themoral value of liberal education.Levine said there is “a debate raging na¬tionally, among educators and other signifi¬cant elements of the national public, aboutthe proper character of collegiate educa¬tion.” He expressed the hope that this uni¬versity regain its voice on that question and“enter more vigorously into that nationaldebate.”“I do believe that we have at the Universi¬ty, a larger number of faculty who areknowledgeable and thoughtful about thisquestion than at any other university in theworld, and probably a larger number of stu¬dents disposed to think about the problemhere than anywhere else as well,” Levinesaid.“I believe that the time is ripe for an ef¬fort to elicit their views and join them in aseries of stimulating and creative discus¬sions,” he added.In that context, “the martial arts seem tome to provide a useful paradigm for one im¬portant way of thinking about the characterof liberal education — one that focuses onthe development of competences,” he said.Levine has been studying the martial artsfor the past few years. He holds a brown beltin Aikido and hopes to earn his black belt sometime during his tenure as dean.Levine admitted that comparing the liber¬al arts to the martial arts is rather unortho¬dox. “As one of my colleagues quipped,That is like giving a lecture on the topic:Lincoln — man and car,’ ” he said.Levine said that he will argue that the twoare related in origin (the culture of ancientGreece), and in certain “parallels in the de¬velopment of their traditions in EasternAsia, and Western Europe and North Ameri¬ca, respectively.” He also said the two arerelated in their aims — “the cultivation ofhuman excellence, and the construction of aworthy life.”“The heart of my talk will explore boththe parallels and the contrasts between theprinciples of the ‘martial arts curriculum’and those of the liberal arts curriculum as Iam inclined to view them,” he said.Donald Levine Rapist pleads guilty,gets 45 years in jailSouth Side resident Steven Jackson plead¬ed guilty to five counts of rape, four countsof armed robbery and one count of theftWednesday. Four of his rape victims wereHyde Park women.Referred to by police as “the preppy ra¬pist,” Jackson would approach his rape vic¬tims in the vestibules of their apartments,and force them to take him into their apart¬ments. Prosecutor Joan Corboy said thatthe 25-year-old Jackson “looked like hecould be a college student.”In July, 1981, Jackson allegedly commit¬ted one of the rapes while free on bond forIm two armed robbery charges. After being ac-0 cused of that rape in February, 1982, Jack-son was again placed on bond.Judge Swain sentenced Jackson to 45years in prison.Security, Housing find campus vandalism hard to controlBy Rachel ShteirAlthough the University of Chicago ad¬ministration says that incidents of vandal¬ism and theft have decreased within thepast several years, unreported accountsseem to remain a problem, because of thenonchalant attitude of both students and ad¬ministration.The recent theft of three prints fromReynolds Club was unknown to Securityfour days after their alleged removal. Whenasked if he was aware of the disappearanceof the prints. Director of Security DavidO’Leary responded negatively, adding thathe felt no responsibility for a theft which hadgone unreported to the department.O’Leary estimated that $10,000 is spentannually on repairing acts of vandalismwithin the housing system Hesitant to spec¬ulate on the causes of vandalism, O’Learywould only say that he believed vandalismand theft are not a significant problem at Uof C because he felt their occurence is lowerthan at other schools in the nation.Connie Holoman, director of StudentA-ACTIVEBUSINESS MACHINESSales - Service - SuppliesTYPEWRITERSADDING MACHINESELECTRONIC TYPEWRITERS& CALCULATORS- Same Day Service -10% DISCOUNTTO STUDENTSVisa/MC1633 E. 55th St.Comer of 55th & Cornell752-0541 1 enjoy my contactLenses made byDr. Kurt RosenbaumOptometristKimbark Plaza1200 E. 53rd St.493-83725309 S.

She justifieda large proportion of vandalism within thehousing system as an effort on the students’part to make their rooms more homey.“Mostly you’re talking about students tak¬ing couches and rugs from the lounges. Theysee it as borrowing, not stealing."Holoman did concede that tampering withelevators was a large problem. She said itwas often difficult to catch the vandals,especially in the case of inter-house destruc¬tion.According to Holoman, the procedure fordisciplining vandals consists of a verbalwarning followed by house probation, and fi¬nally, a transfer to another house. Othermethods of dealing with vandals is billing agroup of students for the damages in orderto discourage individuals. Holoman feelsthis has only limited success.Students appear to be divided into twocamps of thought on the issue vandalismand theft. Many said that they had commit¬ted acts of vandalism or theft during their University careers. Several students, how¬ever, expressed disgust at their fellow stu¬dents’ disrespect for University property.Those who confessed to having either sto¬len or defaced University property pro¬fessed to no fear of retribution from the Uni¬versity. They also seemed to feel thatentering locked buildings was relativelyeasy.Associate Dean of Students Ed Turkingtoncited influence of alcohol, frustration, andfun, as the three major reasons for vandal¬ism. He stated that in any large institution,students become frustrated in their at¬tempts to deal with it, and feel that theymust strike back in another manner.One confessed vandal agreed, saying thathe had stolen from the University to punishit for problems he was having. Although hestated he realized the act itself was imma¬ture, he said it was human nature to steal.“I think anyone will take anything that’s notnailed down, provided it means little enoughto the owner and enough to them.” he said.BEER SPECIAL OF THE WEEKLOWENBRAULight or Dark $219Jtm 6 packpack-12 oz.Not icedIMPORTEDLIEBFRAUMILCH$19819 MReg. 2.89 750 MLFROM PORTUGALISABEL ROSE$298Reg.3.69 750 MLGIN OR VODKASPECIALReg.7.99 $g98 1.75 Ltr.

It is mostoften associated with the films it shows on campus (off of which it makesmoney) and perhaps with housing and food surveys taken in recent years, theresults of which we have yet to hear.We have not seen or heard of any constructive changes or suggestions madeby IHC for the residents of student*housing. We see little value in the activitiesfor which the council prides itself — profit-making films tfor what end?), andMonte Carlo night where B-schoolers rake in winnings from playing poker allevening.Leave the films to campus film organizations, which are devoted to that ser¬vice. Leave Monte Carlo night and other such large-scale events to the StudentGovernment Activities Committee. IHC should have serious goals of its own topursue.When a Greenwood resident brought a complaint about mailbox keys to thecouncil, he maintains that he was brushed aside. This is a concern of the stu¬dents, and it seems typical of IHC to dismiss the matter so casually.One representative of the council says that the importance of IHC lies in Itsbeing another channel for student complaint. As we see it, the more channels,the easier it is to pass the buck.If a single IHC representative has no confidence in the council, his complaintsare worth consideration. If two or more have complaints, the matter should cer¬tainly be discussed. If virtually half the representatives and two executive of¬ficers feel that the council should disband, then a reorganization of IHC is calledfor. ■We are not advocating that IHC disband. We urge council members to attendupcoming meetings and not to ignore the suggestions made by those memberswho care enough about the organization and its rotting image to come forwardand speak.If the council approached their own responsibilities and student concernsseriously, and if the administration provided support for the council’s programs,the council could become a viable, respected organization, and not a burden tothe rest of the student bodv.CTu if, l&itisr^-r“m mNaff-KEITH HORVATHPros of 9-week quarter anyone *i' take a vacation HeavenOi C student should he Caught onio> mg hmiselr rottiei bum *-thinking and lefleeting.I ndoubtedly. ni;tn\ students willdo so. but isn’t this exactly the kind of relax¬ation of academic pressure which the Coun¬cil is looking for0 ll not. they would do bet¬ter to siinph i educe the workload and leavethe calendar alone.)With all due respect to students of both ca¬tegories. the value of a reading period isprecisely that those who are sincerely wor¬ried about the quality of their education areperfectly free to think and reflect, catch upon back assignments, or get a head start onstudying for finals, while those who are not.or are already abreast of their workload,may relax and pursue other pleasures,□early, those students who pressured theirprofessors for early exams last quarter en¬joyed all the benefits of the latter option,while those who utilized the time to avoid re¬ceiving a grade of "incomplete” fa substan¬tial number according to ,the Maroon arti¬cle) took full advantage of the former. Inboth cases, the students have been greatlyrelieved of academic pressure.Obviously. I could not assure anyone thathe/she would necessarily obtain a better ac¬ademic experience on these accounts. Non¬etheless, the benefits 1 have outlined shouldnot be overlooked, and many students maywell find (to Mr. Rabieh's unfortunate dis¬may) that they do indeed sw ing (he balanceof their decisions in favor of a pre-examreading period — even if it means they mustalso endure a nine-week teaching quarter.Douglas ShapiroStudent in the CollegeTo the editor: bySince student questionnaires and student-faculty forums are indeed to follow the Col¬lege Council’s recent proposal of changes inthe academic calendar, then there is littleneed for Mr. Rabieh to have so valiantlypredicted their outcome ;r his letter to theIfaroon last Frtdtey, and I myself further¬more. should have little doubt that I will notbe the last to voice mv opinions on the mat¬ter. With this in mind. I do not expect thefollowing letter to be definitive. I simplyhope, instead, that it should dispel any mis¬conceptions which Mr. Rabieh’s letter may-have created by the aforementioned hastyliberties it has taken w ith the opinions of thestudent body.Mr. Rabieh asserts that the proposedchange to a nine-week college calendarwould be "soundly rejected” by a vote of thestudent body. He argues that such a changemust necessarily either decrease theamount of material covered in each course,or increase the rate at which the material ispresented, either of which may serve to di¬minish what Dean Sinaiko calls the "overallacademic experience” of students in the col¬legeUndoubtedly, the shortening of the teach¬ing term as suggested will force one or bothof these results to occur. What is not so cer¬tain, however, is that the first of these will•'lessen the quality of education in the Col¬lege” or the second’ augment academicpressures to sufficiently outweigh the ben¬efits of a reading period before exams.I would like to suggest simply that thesebenefits be considered under a view slightlyless colored than that provided by Mr. Ra¬bieh, who has all but denied their existence.He claims not only that a shorter quarter To the editorwould iimit the students' opportunities to I read withmake full use of the faculty, but further- in last Tuesdimore that students would abuse the time of disbandmentany reading periods by vacationing and oth Rumors of 1erwise neglecting their educational alms. standing, theFirst, as to “the college’s most valuable zation.

To disband overnight an organizationthat has served the students of the Universi¬ty since 1965 would be a mistake, and mostregular IHC members realize this To abol¬ish the IHC a two-thirds vote of the IHCmembership would be needed. In spite ofMr Poueymirou’s efforts to pack the lastmeeting with his supporters, a test vote re¬vealed that he had far less than two-thirdssupport at that meeting for disbandment.The motion will come up for a final vote atthe next meeting on Tuesday, but f. expect itto fail by a considerable margin. Then, ho¬pefully, the IHC will be able to get back tothe business of representing the interests ofthe students in the University of ChicagoHouse system,Robert G. HesterSecretary of the Inter-House Councilecutive council), claims that the IHC is notnow spending its money on any worthwhilepurpose. That simply is not the case, IHChas, for instance, scheduled a Monte Carlonight for the beginning of the SpringQuarter. It has budgeted several hundreddollars for prizes, food, and equipment forthis event, and it will be open to dents.The IHC has. in fact, already begun to pur¬chase prizes and rent equipment for thisevent.The principal goal of the Inter-HouseCouncil, according to its constitution, is "toprovide an experienced and respected rep¬resentative assembly for the considerationand resolution of questions of interest to thestudents of the University of Chicago Housecommunity.” It certainly has not outlivedits purpose, A student forum comprised ofrepresentatives from each house is stillneeded to provide student input into housingmatters and to provide a place to which stu¬dents, through their IHC representative,may bring any questions or problems theymay have relating to the House system. Anorganization such as IHC is also needed topromote interaction between houses. It isone thing to suggest changes in the IHC tohelp make it a more effective organization,but it is quite another to call for its disband¬ment. Some have, paradoxically, pointed tothe present healthy financial state of theIHC as a reason for its disbandment. Thesepeople, in general not active members,seem to hope to gain control of its money fortheir own organizations and friends.

Together, they areswaying with Jesse Jackson to “We ShallOvercome,” feeling the pain of the civilrights wars their parents fought, yet savor¬ing the moment of final victory which theyfeel is at hand.Now picture the 20 percent of Chicagoansliving below the poverty line for whom victo¬ry is not at hand, the million or so blacks inthe ghetto, and the disenfranchised poorwho, if they are at the McCormick rally atall, are there as the hotel workers emptyingthe ashtrays, picking up used glasses andserving cocktails.The 4000 bouyant revelers who crammedinto the Washington rally to celebrate theirpeople’s “day on the mountaintop” (as oneof the speakers put it) formed the bestdressed, most affluent political gatheringsince Ronald Reagan’s inaugural ball.These blacks — and 95 percent of the peoplethere were black — are what my grandfa¬ther would call “Baltimore Blacks”: that is,the breed of blacks who migrated from the south very early, settled in places like Bal¬timore, and became wealthy very fast.Now picture what these Kenwood andGold Coast blacks want from Harold Wash¬ington. That became evident at about 12:30Wednesday morning. Richard Daley had al¬ready conceded and the confident, buoyantcrowd circulated from ballroom to ballroomhugging each other and making party chat¬ter. Suddenly a rumor sw'ept through thehotel that Byrne was about to concede, fol¬lowed closely by another rumor that she hadconceded. Everyone rushed into the oppres¬sively hot main ballroom and crushedtoward the stage, which Jesse Jacksonmounted. “We want Harold!” the crowdchanted for several minutes as balloons fellfrom the ceiling and people kissed eachother in jubilation. Finally, Jackson quietedthe crowd somew'hat and began preaching.“Let us join hands, and bow our heads inprayer. We are taught, in all of our ways, wemust acknowledge God. He will erect ourpathways. We come tonight in celebrationwith heavy hearts and tear-stained eyes.We’ve come a mighty long way. We’ve comefrom slaveship to championship. We’vecome a mighty long way. From disgrace toamazing grace. W’e’ve come a mighty longway. We made the determination to turn toeach other and not on each other. We’vecome a mighty long way. From DuSablefounding the city, to Harold Washington sav¬ing the city. We’ve come a mighty long way.From heavy hearts, bowed heads. We’vecome a long way. Until a man can expresshimself now. We’ve come a mighty longway.”“Happy birthday, Martin Luther King. Akid in the projects can be somebody now.Happy birthday, Martin Luther King. Youdidn’t live and die in vain! Happy birthday,Martin Luther King.” “Lord, I want to thank you for this manyou’ve sent in our midst, blood of our blood,flesh of our flesh, spirit of our spirit. Let thisbe a holy city. A place where men andwomen and boys and girls can respect eachother. Lord, thank you for letting us haveour children back. Thank you for letting ushave our families back. Thank you for let¬ting us have our self-respect back. ThankYou. Thank You. We shall overcome...” Andthe crowd began singing “We Shall Over¬come” which people all around changed to“We Have Overcome.”Jesse Jackson’s prayer captured the feel¬ings of those people at the rally who formthe core of Harold Washington’s support.This was a victory celebration on a muchlarger scale. In the hearts and minds ofthese successful blacks, Washington’s victo¬ry represented the final hurdle towardequality, and this rally became a victorycelebration capping the entire civil right'smovement. Mayoral politics were ignoredTuesday night. On the contrary, politics nolonger had a place in the new world thesepeople, at least momentarily, seemed to be¬lieve.Of course, Mayor Byrne did not concedeat 12:30 and Washington did not come outand greet this ecstatic crowd. It would beanother hour and a half before he camedown. By then, much of the crowd had left.And sensing that he had to remind those thatwere left that he was a man and not a God. apolitician and not a saviour, a Washingtonand not a Martin Luther King, he spokeslowly and wearily. He discarded thepreaching tactics he’d used so often in thepast three months. He stressed the eleven-point political program that had been thenuts and bolts of his campaign. But it was tono effect; his audience lost interest when hestarted talking politics. Some of them even began singing “We Shall Overcome”again.It may come as a shock, then, when Wash¬ington’s most ardent supporters find that heis not the spiritual savior, but, at heart, aregular democratic organization politicianwho inherited his father’s South Side pre¬cinct in 1954 and stayed loyal to the machineall the way until Mayor Daley’s death in1977.And it may come as a shock to the poorblacks who formed the mass of his supportto find that his black skin does not make himone of them. Washington was born to a pro¬fessional family (his father was a lawyer)and he went straight from Roosevelt Uni¬versity to Northwestern Law School to livein and represent upper-middle class HydePark.And it may come as a shock to whitevoters when they learn that Chicago blacksare not a monolith, and that upper-middleclass blacks, like those Washington is likelyto bring into City Hall, have a lot more incommon with upper middle class whitesthan they do to poverty-ridden members oftheir own race, and that the racially cen¬tered coalition will fall apart when it comestime to make hard, economic decisions.The election of Harold Washington is notthe dawn of a new era, as the people atMcCormick Inn believed, nor is it a signalthat people are going to make an extra ef¬fort to love each other, as Walter Jacobsonwistfully predicted early Wednesday morn¬ing, nor is it a shift of power to the disen¬franchised minority voters in the ghetto. In¬stead, it is the election of a moderatelyliberal Democratic politician who happensto be black and who, because of a set of tre¬mendously misconceived expectations thatlinger around his cause, faces a series of im¬possible tasks.InterviewHoltzman speaks on elections, ERA, and ReaganBy David BrooksElizabeth Holtzman is a born zealot: total¬ly committed and uncompromising, and ex¬traordinarily intelligent, but humorless andalmost without human features. She is oneof those people with a complete faith in therightness of her causes, and the unusualability to become religiously devoted to anabstraction, such as justice or equal oppor¬tunity. As an advocate and a worker, I can’timagine anyone 1 would want more on myside.Henry Miller used to say that these re¬markable people who are completely devot¬ed to causes either have no personal prob¬lems or choose to ignore them. Holtzmanholds her cards close to her chest, and heriron self-control sometimes comes off asveiled antagonism or childish obstinacy.Small talk and other pleasantries seem lostupon her. I left the interview with a pro¬found respect for her abilities but feelingdrained, as if I'd just come from a funeral.Maroon: Let me ask you first if you havebeen following and have any thoughts on ourmayoral election?Holtzman: I just don’t think it would be ap¬propriate for me to comment about an elec¬tion I just don’t know very much about.Maroon: In this mayoral election Byrne hashinted that her opponents have “ganged up”on her because she is a woman runningagainst two men. W’hen you ran againstJacob Javitz and Alphanse D’Amato in therace for New York senator in 1980 did younotice that type of behavior?Holtzman: I don't know that they gangedup. Obviously, the two of them had a majori¬ty of the votes. The campaign in which theissue of my being a woman was raised notjust implicitly but explicitly was my cam¬paign for district attorney, during which myopponent ran a radio commercial with awoman’s voice saying, “Liz Holtzman is avery nice girl and I might even like her formy daughter but she wouldn’t be a verygood DA.” The feeling behind that was thata woman can’t be a district attorney, whichis a tough, executive job. I was surprisedthat that kind of campaign could be run in1981 in New York and I think it had somekind of impact. Even my traditional sup¬porters came up to me in that race and said. “I don’t think the DA is the right job for awoman.”Maroon: Once you were elected did peoplepretty much accept you?Holtzman: Yes. I was pretty much accept¬ed. Obviously there are still problemswomen candidates encounter, especially inrespect to fundraising, also treatment in thepress — they’ll deal more with a woman’spersonality than with what she’s done. Andif a woman speaks on women’s issues theseare considered to be minor issues or secon¬dary issues.Maroon: When you were a member of Con¬gress did you notice that there was an old-boy back-slapping comeraderie that it wastough for you to get into?Holtzman: I think I had a strong record asan effective member of Congress. I foundthat doing my homework, being reasonablewith people, and working hard meant that 1could get quite a bit of legislation through,and I did.Maroon: What about the struggle to extendthe ERA? Was that a particularly toughissue?Holtzman: It was a very difficult fight. Partof the reason we won it was because peoplerespected the fact that if I said there was aconstitutional basis for it, they would re¬spect my judgment, and that only comesfrom doing your homework, and having peo¬ple recognize that you're not the type of per¬son who says things that are frivolous. Itwas a very well-organized, bi-partisan bat¬tle with a lot of grass-roots support. I don’tknow that the fight w as as well organized onthe state level as it was in Congress.Maroon: Why do you think ERA failed?Holtzman: Primarily because of the cam¬paign of lies that was w aged against it. Youhave to beware that the campaign of lies isgoing to have some impact, and I think onthe state levels there wasn’t enough time orthere wasn’t enough sophistication to win.Maroon: It sounds like in Congress you weredealing with a more discerning group —people who could weed out the lies from thetruth.Holtzman: Don’t idealize it.Maroon: Were you impressed with your col¬leagues there? 1Holtzman: There were more than I thought who were serious, hardworking and intelli¬gent. But is that a majority of the peoplethere? That’s a different question.Maroon: Are these people going to giveERA another chance?PHOTO BY ARA JELALIANElizabeth Holtzmanloltzman: I think time itself will bring>bout the ratification of the amendment.,lore than half of married women workiow. And any woman who goes out andforks faces discrimination, whether it’s intension plans, promotions, the kinds of jobs,alary or whatever, and she’s not going to belappy about that.daroon: Haven’t a significant portion ofromen been working for some time — ateast since World War II?loltzman: No. The numbers are really dra-natically increasing, especially amongnarried women.daroon: Comparing the movement for civilights for women to the blacks civil rightsnovement, the blacks seem to have hadnore success legislatively.loltzman: They had a constitutionalimendment to start on.daroon: Having been in both movements,ire there bases of comparison? Are therehings one group did better?loltzman: I haven't thought about it enougho give you a fair comparison.Vlaroon: How high is ERA right now on theist of priorities for the liberal movement?loltzman: Obviously justice is somethingwithout which we can’t live. We can't ignore■estrictions which are unfair — discrimina-;ion, bigotry, prejudice — and eliminating that has to be a priority of the society,whether it’s liberal or other groups. I thinkit's part of a broad scale effort to try to pro¬vide a decent life for all Americans.Maroon: Do you think that the DemocraticParty is, as some have said, running on oldand stale ideas?Holtzman: I think the Democrats have somerethinking to do. I don’t believe that you canjust write a program and let it operate on itsown It has to be carefully monitored. We’vehad a long history of attack on the notionthat federal spending is bad. 1 think Demo¬crats have to shift that around, because peo¬ple do believe that the government is thereto help them 1 think the Democrats have toaddress the notion that government is hereto stay, and that we w ant it to work well, andwe want it to be humane, and we w ant it tobe fair.Maroon: If the people really believe this,what happened in the election of 1980?Holtzman: You had immense inflation. Youhad disillusionment with Jimmy Carter.There was no mandate for Ronald Reagan.Democrats don’t have to be ashamed of say¬ing that we need a government that’s goingto be effective, that can make a difference inpeople’s lives. People want to have a gov¬ernment that’s going to protect their envi¬ronment. that’s going to take care of theirproblems in old age, that’s going to ensureequal opportunity, that’s going to keep usout of war. We don’t have to pander to somenotion that Reaganism is what the Ameri¬can people want.Maroon: Given the 1980 election and the fail¬ure of ERA. would you say the Americanpeople have been fooled’? That there’s some¬thing wrong with the democratic process?Holtzman: Things have been shifting sincethen. Look at Reagan’s jobs program. He’sgoing to take credit for these kinds of ideasHe’s putting aside his “evil government" asa matter of expediency He has embracedthe concept that the government should bean employer of the last resort Obviously notin the fullest sense, but he has embraced theconcept If he gets the support of the Ameri¬can people in 1984 it will be because he hasmoved away from the ideas he used to getelected.The Chicago Maroon—Friday, February 25, 1983—5Potato Hot Breads SaucePlus the bountiful Freshtastilcs Pood BarWe now have all you can eat Breakfast BuffetSat. & Sun.

Each symbol forms a part of aculture's interpretation of itself. And inthe modern world, each particular artifactor text is perhaps ideologically overdeter¬mined: the product of a cultural hegemonyin which a variety of political and socialideas reside. Blatantly ideological textsare easy to find and interpret. What ismore elusive are those artifacts of popularculture which reflect a more diffuse cultur¬al hegemonic. For this we may turn to comicbooks.Comics exist within popular cultural dis¬course, interpreting America for a largelyprepubescent, predominantly male audi¬ence. Superheroic characters are sometimerole models, resolving the conflicts of lifein physical, and hence allegorical, fashion.Only in comics can one find a single charac¬ter which serves as an interpretive symbolfor the hegemony of America over the pastforty odd years: CAPTAIN AMERICA.1941. World at war and little doubt as towhere American sympathies lay. The dis¬tinctions were simple: the evil GermanNazis and the inscrutable warlike Japa¬nese were Bad Guys. America — still unit¬ed despite Depression, a self-proclaimedbeacon of liberty and truth — was theGood Guy. The simple opposition is perfectfor the two-dimensional world of comics.Enter Captain America, a red, white, andblue superman with the chain mail andshield of a Christian Crusader, the bucca¬neer boots of a privateer or frontiersman,the form of a Greek god, and the conscious¬ness and spirit of sixteen million fightingmen.So his publishers — Timely Comics —hoped, and the instant success of JackKirby’s new superhero bore out the factthat they had created a symbol with imme¬diate relevance. The blond-haired, blue¬eyed man exuded only pride and confi¬dence in the American ideals he embodied.He appeared throughout the war, fightingfierce and demonic manifestations of Na¬zism, such as the Red Skull and BaronBlood. He fought stereotypical Japanesewith B-movie accents. The enemy was de¬fined and hideous. Cap was beautiful,strong, acrobatic beyond possibility, andcourageous. He was right, they werewrong, and the audience saw it was true.Captain America's alter ego was SteveRogers. A sickly, skinny kid, he was in¬furiated by newsreels depicting FortressEuropa. He attemped to enlist in the army,but was rejected. Chance, however, leadshim to become the subject for ProjectSuper Soldier. Military scientists devel¬oped a serum which transformed the sicklyRogers into a one-man fighting machine:“the first of a corps of super agents.’’ SoCaptain America is born, and the assassi¬nation of the scientist by a Nazi spy as¬sures that Captain America will fightalone.Thus, to fight the Nazis, the U.S. militarydecided to create a race of supermen — inessence, to defeat the enemy by realizingan element of its fascist ideology. But lestwe fear that Cap was no better than hiscounterparts he offered the followingwhen a Nazi fifth columnist exclaimed thathe was not human: “That's where you'rewrong! I’m totally human! But I'm fightingfor a cause...a dream! And that makes allthe difference!’’ It was the elusive conceptof Liberty, the cornerstone of the Ameri¬can hegemony, which set him apart. Andwhether or not this distinction is valid tothe critic is unimportant: the text sold. Theculture appropriated the symbol and ac¬cepted its presuppositions.This new symbol was significant not onlyas a microcosm of American values and re¬actions, but as a collective expression. AsJim Steranko wrote in his history of thecomics:Those that were critical of his two-dimensional character failed to 25 February 1953* 15th Year!asua #134grasp the true implication of hisbeing. Captain America was not anembodiment of human characteris¬tics but a pure idea. He was not aman but all men; not a being but acumulative god that symbolized theinner reality of man. He was theAmerican truth.After the war was over, Captain Ameri¬ca continued to appear monthly, fightingcriminals and conspirators. His momentumlasted into the beginning of the 1950's,long enough for the character to imitatethe excessive nationalism and paranoiathat was beginning to creep across theAmerican landscape, manifested in theHouse Un-American Activities Committee.The flag-draped Crusader was starting todefeat aspects of the liberty he was sup¬posed to represent. Still, without a foreignwar, Cap was to fade away.Marvel Comics brought Captain Americaback in 1964, and in so doing, rewrotesome of his history. The postwar Cap hadtoo much McCarthyism for the new liberalsensibilities of Johnson’s America, so itwas explained that Cap had been frozen inice in 1945. In recent years Marvel hascompleted the explanation: The “CaptainAmerica of the 50's’’ was actually, welearn, another man who idolized Cap andreproduced the secret serum to becomehim. Unfortunately his imperfect formulademented his brain, causing him to see con¬spiracy in everyone, especially blacks andother minorities who didn’t share hisAryan qualities and narrow-minded ideo¬logy.As America reevaluated its past, so didCaptain America. Nonetheless, the Cap ofthe 60 s had basically the same fightingaction appeal as before. The liberal and li¬berating qualities of the Marvel heroes(sensitivity, inability to organize one'slife, witty repartee in battle) notwith¬standing, Cap was still basically a reac¬tionary symbol of American military THEM I PRAY THAT I'M EQUAL TO THE TASK,&H&ZAL ' THIS LAMP OP OURS MAY HAVE9&BH SOME HARD TtMfsS, AMP MAY0S ITirmr*m** t ?KASM'T ALWAYS LIVED UP TO THE PROMISEw Of TM6 POUMOfNS FATHERS,../■T.eUT AMERICA ATITS &e6T HAS ALWAYSSTOOP FCK The fts&HTSOF MAH AMP AiSAiNSTTHE RULE OFTVRAhTs![Jf AMP IF AMSFiCAMEsrPS A MAMVO STAMP PCS;HER PRtMOPie*TO BATTLE TM£FORCES OF TYFAMMY-'TW€M,ASper ts myWITHERS, I SMALLt 16 THAT MAM!Issue #255power, reappearing as the Vietnam Warfestered and grew.Then in the late Sixties comics began toreflect popular culture even more closely,and certainly more consciously. Marveltitles carried POP ART labels, endeavor¬ing (successfully) to capture the trendy in¬tellectual market. Soon political protestand drug use were featured, and while thecomics still resolved each conflict with atriumph for morality, moderation, andclean living, ambiguities began to appear.Captain America, the American Truth,began to come into contact with enemies ofa different ilk than the high tech supera¬gents and monsters of Hydra, AIM. the Se¬cret Empire, and other modern incarna¬tions of the old pulp formula. He began, asdid America, to confront street crime, po¬verty, and ghettoes.Someone recognized that Cap was aproblematic symbol — white, male, blond,a military man — so they added a partnerto the act to balance the reactionary formof their symbol. Moreover, the text need¬ed to reach those formerly dispossessedelements of American culture which liberalconscience had just discovered. Thepartner was the Falcon, and he was black.Suddenly Cap was no longer slinging hisshield and doing acrobatics in subterran¬ ean superspy scenarios, but chasing racke¬teers and extortionists through the streetsof Harlem. The Falcon, with standard supermusculature and also a pet falcon, doubledduring the day as Sam Wilson, SocialWorker. So Cap was articulated in the newwhite liberal discourse, embodying a newpolitical hegemony and an awareness thathe, alone, was an incomplete reflection ofthe real diversity of America.The rebuilt symbol was now fighting notsimply for America, but for a vision ofAmerican which specified liberty, equali¬ty, and justice for all. He was no longer theAmerican Truth, but the American Dream.Not what was, but what should be. It was abattle that Cap. and the average Ameri¬can, believed could be fought within thesystem. Then the system drifted fartherfrom the ideal, and Cap was further de¬fined.The conflict between Dream and Realitycame into play in 1974 in the wake of Wa¬tergate. The Secret Empire, an organiza¬tion of cloaked villains, reappeared underthe direction of “a new Number One."They were linked to the Committee To Re¬gain America's Principles (CRAP), headedby a man named Quentin Harderman.

The Committee successfullytarnished Cap’s good name, and the SecretEmpire converged on the White House in anattempt to assume control.The cover of issue 175 announced thatCap would face “The deadliest Man-Men¬ace of all!”. Inside, Cap defeated the min¬ions of the Empire and their superheroMoonstone. Finally, “Number One,” hisarmy defeated, ran into the White House.Cap tailed and felled him, and removed hismask. The audience cannot see his face,but can see Cap exclaim “Good Lord!You!”, to which the figure replies “Exact¬ly! But high political office didn’t satisfyme! My power was still too constrained bylegalities!” and shoots himself. Thus, thedeadliest man-menace is obliquely re¬vealed. (Nixon, if you haven’t figured itout yet.)The implications of the scene were car¬ried through in successive issues. As a re¬sponsible cultural symbol, Captain Ameri¬ca combined descriptive and proscriptiveelements. He was a collective America, buthe was also its highest ideals. Now, hisfaith and trust in America's institutionsand leaders had been destroyed, just as ithad been for every white liberal Ameri¬can. So the symbol did some soul-search¬ing, shed his costume, and became Nomad,the man without a country.He returned to his old identity after ayear or so. The Falcon left. But the new for¬mula was set. The American Reality wouldalways fall short of the American Dream.It was Captain America s responsibility tofight for the dream — the cultural pro¬scription — against the reality — the cul¬ture itself.Shield-slinging patriotism was notenough. The enemies were no longer easilyidentified by racial stereotype. Thingswere not always as they seemed. It re¬mained for Cap — the interpretive symbolof the cultural hegemonic — to resolve thecomplexities and preserve our ideals.Today the Captain America stories fol¬low this new paradigm. Appearances aredeceptive. Ideas are used to manipulate.The power of ideas impinges upon, directs,and always alters reality. In issue #264 wefind Cap in a strange America where Ken¬nedy is still President. Then suddenly real¬ity shifts and the Falcon as Sam Wilson isshining Cap’s shoes in a newly racistcountry. Then Cap finds himself 8 years oldat a carnival. Suddenly, a Nazi parademarches by, celebrating its rule of theUnited States. What’s happening is that aman named Morgan McNeil Hardy has hooked up four tetepaths to a brain aug-menter and has set out, through this ampli¬fied psychic power, to restructure realityas he sees fit. He wants to recreate theideal America. Unfortunately, each of thefour has their own dream. One hatesblacks. Another longs for Nazi Germany.The third is a young boy. The fourth is ablack woman who eventually leads Cap¬tain America to the augmenter, while theforms of reality shift rapidly as the tele¬paths compete.In the final scene Cap confronts Hardyand the four in his machine. Hardy at¬tempts to restructure Captain America outof reality, but in so doing finds he must de¬stroy everything. The power of the ma¬chine reverts and kills him. Huh? What?You see, the black woman in the machinebelieved Captain America and America tobe the same. To destroy the supreme sym¬bol is to destroy the culture. Cap deliversthe eulogy: “Oh Hardy...if only you’d rea¬lized that ideals...even the highest ideals— can’t be forced upon people from with¬out. Men (sic) must be free to choose...”The implications of the text are twofold.First, the power of the mind — ideas — canrestructure reality. Moreover, as all therealities switched, only Cap noticed some¬thing wrong. He fought the racist and Nazirealities. Only he could see through theconstruction because he, as the physicalmanifestation of the ideological hegemonyof America, is more powerful than any sin¬gle political/social idea. Only a multivocalidea made real can defeat another ideamade real. Only a superman can defeat aNazi.The Cap stories nowadays often bringhim into conflict with the realities ofAmerica. In #267 he fights Everyman, whoembodies the frustrations of the dispos¬sessed, the underclass which must exist ina capitalist society. In defeating him (wasthere a doubt?) Cap defeats not the under¬class, but rather, it seems, demagogueryand the manipulation of ideas. He wins be¬cause his ideas include freedom of choiceand justice, where possible, for all. Themodern American political discourse ispresumed, accepted, and educated into theaudience.Captain America has slowly recognizedthe diversity of the culture he representsand interprets. He, or his creators, haverealized that the dream and the realitywill never be one, but still think the fight isa good one. Of course, all of this develop¬ment does not negate the form of the sym¬bol and its inherent political implications.Many of the ideas have changed. But he isstill a white male, born of military power,dedicated at least in part to the system.He is a symbol which fosters an interpreta¬tion of America defined by those whoshare his form.2—FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1983—THE GREY CITY JOURNAL, * ... . . ...

Whatever it isthat holds our attention, it must bethoroughly engaging. Such acquiescentparticipation on our part indicates that weare holding back, or at least tempering,our critical attention — viewing such an ar¬tificial happening demands a kind of pa¬tient, well-meaning receptiveness in orderto experience and understand. Going tothe ballet we are often distracted by theactivity of assembling together, our socialand cultural self-consciousness piqued bythe charged (and well-dressed) atmo¬sphere. In some sense the distractionserves to prepare us for the uncommon¬place, the artistic ‘form'. If so, the art astradition can be said to dictate and eveninclude the more mundane aspects in whichit is to be received.I sat in the gallery for last Wednesday’sAmerican Ballet Theatre performance, theuppermost section of the Auditorium,where the main spotlight is located, andthe dusty cobwebs dangle quite close tothe rickety wooden seats. I’m not surewhat effect my pecuniary limitations hadon my enjoyment of the program, but I doknow that any self-consciousness I mayhave felt was thoroughly mitigated by myrelentless fascination. And if the disparitybetween the focus before and during theperformance is any type of measure of itsintensity, ABT is certainly capable of somehighpower mechanics.STUDENT THEATERcontinued from page 3asking himself why ne believes that. Ed¬vard wants to know why Star Trek isn’tart. “After all,” he says, “There are 72episodes, 72 variations on a theme, eachexplored within strict thematic and forma-tic guidelines.”Keith Fleming's play, Reading in theDark, which was directed by Steve Dia¬mond, is a more difficult play to keep in¬teresting than its companion one-act. It is aplay with only two characters, a playabout imagery as much as about people.Mr. Fleming has crammed his play withrich images and reminiscenses. These areoften fascinating and very beautiful. How¬ever, many of these things must be said byone character or the other, in long para¬graphs. Word has been circulating sincelast weekend that, “(Reading in the Dark,)was good, but just too long.” I disagree.Length is not the question. Ability to fasci¬nate is the question. If the monologues inthe play seemed long, it was because theyweren’t heartfelt. The play did lose its ten¬sion at times, but it was tighter, more con¬trolled, more energetic than EdvardMunch.Reading in the Dark comments primarilyon how people relate to each other. But itdoesn't really tell a story and Gimpy andEmilyn don’t behave very differently atthe end of the play than they do at the be¬ginning. The play doesn’t exactly leadanywhere. Instead it provides a windowinto the behavior of two strange collegestudents.Both of these students are rather bi¬zarre. Emilyn enjoys reading in the dark,sitting silently with a skeleton in her lap,and trying not to care one way or the otherif her friends see her or not. There is nodefinite border between her dreams andher waking life, or so she says. She is com¬pulsively horny, yet repulsed and regret- Balanchine's “Theme and Variations”worked like a kaleidescope, where a finitenumber (26) of individual dancers com¬bined and recombined in what seemed tobe an infinite number of shapes and pat¬terns. One dancer, or grouping of dancers,would act as a pivot point of sorts, and asothers moved around, with, and throughthem, the whole pattern alternatelyfanned-out or gathered-in, producing apleasing symmetry of sequin-like shapes.The individual movements were cleanand simple; what might have seemed ex¬aggerated on the scale of a single dancerful at her sexual excesses the morningafter. Her moods are unpredictable. Sheagrees to Gimpy’s visit one moment, thentells him she doesn't care what he does aminute later. She is at times affectionateand physical, yet she brutally ignoresGimpy’s most aggressive attempts to im¬press upon her how bad he feels.Although both Stephanie Bacon andJohn Hildreth as Emilyn and Gimpy are au¬dible and competent in their roles, I feelthat both of them lack a commitment to thecharacters they are trying to portray. Ms.Bacon is blessed with a voice which has thevocal fragrance of marmelade or honey.She is generally interesting to listen to be¬cause of this distinctiveness of voice. Shedoes not however live up to the reputationGimpy paints for Emilyn. The essential andirritating truth about Emilyn’s character isthat she is at once fascinating and cruel. Soshe compels men like Gimpy to pay atten¬tion to her and to hope that she’ll returntheir affection even as she rejects their in¬terest by avoiding them, asking them tojump out of windows, or pretending theyaren't in the room when they come tovisit.I think the cruel side of Emilyn is inade¬quately explored by Ms. Bacon. She is softand pleasant in her delivery of most lines.She lacks a certain power, both of attrac¬tion, and of scorn and disinterest whichwould make Gimpy’s treatment of hermore plausible. She is though quietly mag¬netic in the way she speaks. There is a sortof mysterious Victorian charm about her.She speaks of her pain and regret in theplay with complete conviction. These mo¬ments could stand to be magnified, buttheir quietness may be what makes thembelievable. If there were some way tomagnify this without destroying its innatetruthfulness, her performance might be en¬hanced.John Hildreth as Gimpy is best when heportrays Gimpy at his most zany and joy¬ful. I felt as if Mr. Hildreth was having agood time when he joked with Emilynabout old times and jumped up and down worked compositely to integrate the sepa¬rate movements — we viewed the dancersas one, one so that individual movementsseemed more expressive of the wholeteam of any individual. The line of a singlearabesque was seen in relation to the lin¬ear pattern of the entire group. Colorswere grey-green, tutus were classiclyshaped, short and upturned, and a kind oftasteful, unostentatious glitter pervadedcostumes, backdrop, movements. Of coursethe music was Tchaikovsky, but it wasstrong in sentiment without ever becomingdisturbingly sticky. Perhaps the type ofon the mattress in Scene 6, and especiallywhen he was drunk in Scene 4. Scene 4 wasfor me a high point in the play. Mr. Hil¬dreth is hysterical to watch and to listen toas he sways uncertainly on a stepladderand tumbles to the floor after Emilynbumps him. His voice takes on a plaintive,nasal quality as he struggles confusedly toargue with Emilyn’s version of pastevents. His laughter is contagious. He isalso excellent at playing the drunken per¬son who projects other concerns onto trivi¬al events. I felt his agony when he stum¬bled about looking for his shirt in Scene4.Mr. Hildreth is not as exciting as the hurtlover in Scene 5. Somehow the enormity ofhis pain and of his gutwrenching attack onEmilyn’s personality doesn't register asstrongly as it should.In any event, Mr. Fleming’s play is gor¬geously written. The same applies to Mr.McGrath’s work, although Mr. McGrathdoesn't allow himself as much freedom toindulge his imaginings. Both of these playsare grab bags of small truths which the au¬thors seem to have been wrangling overfor some time. This is perhaps the best rea¬son to see the plays. For all their quirki¬ness, they keep reminding us of thingswe’ve thought and felt, but haven’t both¬ered to write down or remember.I wouldn’t wish it on anyone to missthese two one-act plays; not because theyare brilliantly-rendered, but because theyare live theater acted in and directed bystudents. My recent intensive associationwith the theater has dimmed my enjoy¬ment of movies because they simply don’thave the immediacy of the live event. Stu¬dent theater means tension because thetheater is small, the actors are people weeat with every day, and because we aren’tallowed to sit back and feel confident thatthe show will run smoothly. The showwon’t run smoothly. We’re living on theedge with the people who are sweating itout on stage. That’s what makes the expe¬rience so exhilarating. Go see ConcreteGothic's One-Acts.I counterpoint established between the lyri¬cal violin and the almost mechanized preci¬sion of the movements, accounts for thecomplexity usually not associated withTchaikovsky. Perhaps it was the spatial,geometric complexity which was overlaidupon the music like a Byzantine mosaicupon a ground of gleaming gold. Whateverthe explanation — the seemingly endlessvariety of patterns, the dynamic yet cohe¬sive force of the group as a whole, the pu¬rity and definition of the dancers’ move¬ment and line — visually, texturally, thepiece had high resolution.An estuary is that part of a body ofwater where the tide meets the current ofa stream. Lynne Taylor-Corbett’s “Es¬tuary” was inspired by a young poet’s re¬flections on his impending death. The pieceitself did not so much flow, or move for¬ward, as it held its place, strong and per-serviering. Movements were arranged tocreate different spatial settings: a widediagonal bearing downstage left; smallercouplets like vortices engulfing the wholestage; an uneven line gradually settling onthe right, the protagonist (Patrick Bissell)usually weighting the end. These arrange¬ments carved out the space to describe thetopography like a map describing theocean’s floor, eventually coming back toyet never overcoming the former shapes.A screen of spotted shadows playedupon the surface of the stage. Pulses ofgreen, gold, red, and violet-blue coloredthe backdrop and were reflected in thecolors of the dancers’ simple costumes.Partners often did not face one another.The man gently but firmly pulling thewoman by her upper arms into a soft turn;the woman swivel-turning the man’s head,which then fell softly onto her; one pullingthe other’s inert torso along; the man’soutstretched palm being brushed againstby a passing woman’s cheek: the sixdancers danced in couples yet each seemedquite alone. They as easily gave into asthey manipulated each other, never pos¬ing any type of struggle. The music byRalph Vaughan Williams intensified thestained-glass-like colors of the set with asparse yet emotionally translucent ar¬rangement of sounds. Movements werebig and quiet: soft upper torso dives, to tohip undulations, swelling body rolls, one-palm-over-the-head crawl strokes. Likethe motion of alluvial waters, the motionof the piece was spiritually reassuring, therecurrant shapes reinforced by the pas¬sage of time, inevitable and unstoppable.The final work, Twyla Tharp’s “PushComes to Shove”, abruptly changed thetone of the evening. In a playful preludeset to ragtime, one male dancer with ablank bowler and two femals without,teased and cajoled each other, passing thehat between them, in a movement routinereminiscent of vaudeville. Once the self-important performers were introduced,the setting was switched, and we werelead trippingly into the dignified coursingof a Haydn symphony. All the classical ele¬ments of movements, unison, symmetry,technical flourishes, were present andcompetently executed. But so were theiropposites, inserted without trepidation inthe immediate context. The result was agentle but insisting parody: the bowlerwoven ironically through the typicallynymph-like corps; facial expressions re¬vealing rather than masking the dancers’alternating feelings of competitivenessand frustration; the intricate spatial pat¬terns upset by conspicuous deviations, or,once established, dancers breaking offabruptly and arbitrarily, as if meaning toinsult the beauty they had just created.The movements were primarily of classi¬cal ballet’s vocabulary; the moves howev¬er, were jazz-influenced, and punctuatedevery expression wiuth an added empha¬sis on focus, tihe flexibility of the torso,and especially timing. The piece provokedoutright laughter at times, as the bur¬lesque treatment was quite effective. Yetit is not easy to accept such treatment if itis thought of as self-caricature, especiallyif one is absorbed so thoroughly by thepreceding works, as I was. I can laugh atmy expecting or associating certainstereotypical movement with ballet; I canlaugh at my generally taking traditionalmovement so seriously; but I can manageto laugh at dancers making fun of dancers,or of dance tradition, only if I sense no con¬demnation. And on that point I am not to¬tally convinced.4—FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1983—THE GREY CITY JOURNALSee your Josten’s representativePLACE: University BookstoreDATE: Wed., March 2nd & Thurs., March 3TIME: 12:00-4:30SOPHOCLESSophocles’ANTIGONE...in a new translation byDavid Grene & Wendy O’FlahertyNow through March 20Wednesday-Saturday, 8:00Sunday, 2:30 & 7:30753-4472Visa/MC/AmExDining Discounts with Mallory's Restaurant. 241 5600CJC Students just $3 on Wed Thurs Sun with "Student Rush"COURT^THMTREUniversity of Chicago 5535 S.

There’s just too much to keep upwith, and it seems like most of the newstuff isn’t really worthwhile anyway. SoI’ve decided to take a look back, to a timethat many of you might still remember(Men at Work, anyone?) and at an arbi¬trary list of ten of my favorite recordsfrom last year.The Individuals, FieldsA friend recommended this record to me,describing it as “the best album of 1982.”I figured that he was exaggerating —after all, he comes from Hoboken, New Jer¬sey, which just happens to be the band’shome town. But after subsequent repeat¬ed listenings I have to admit that I don’tdisagree. It’s true that I can hardly claimto be objective after falling in love withtheir bass player Janet Wygal at firstsight of the album’s back cover, but Iwouldn’t let something like love get in theway of my analytic faculties (ha!). You re¬ally have to be on your feet dancing tofully appreciate much of the album. Notthat there isn't substance to their musicbeyond the beat, but parts of the albumare so irresistibly danceable that resistingseems like a crime. The music has a sponta¬neity I’ve rarely heard in pop music — ithas a jazzy feel even though it doesn’tsound like jazz, and that makes it very ex¬citing to me. These guys are terrific musi¬cians and vocalists. Unfortunately, thealbum is on the tiny Plexus label and isnext to impossible to find around here, butit’s well worth the effort.The Waitresses, Wasn’t Tomorrow Wonder¬ful?People tend to dismiss the Waitresses asjust another silly novelty band (“I KnowWhat Boys Like”), but they’re wrong to doso. Chris Butler, the group's guitarist andsongwriter, writes some of the wisestsongs I’ve heard in ages, and he does sowithout compromising the music, which isfresh and danceable.' (As you may haveguessed by now. I do like to dance.) Thisband has more personality and intelli¬gence than a hundred Adam Ants, and thisrecord does a good job of capturing theirvibrance. What’s more, this album canserve as a counselor of sorts for your trou¬bled relationship. The characters of thesongs like “No Guilt” and “Go On” faceand find answers to the hard questions ev¬eryone goes through when breaking up.With what other album can you dance yourway to better emotional health?Lou Reed, The Blue MaskLou Reed's happy now, and in rock androll, “happy” is generally considered tobe synonymous with “boring”. The BlueMask is far from boring, though — self-as¬sured, maybe, but definitely not boring.Lou sounds more comfortable than beforebut no less convincing; if anything, hesounds more honest and real. Emotionjumps out of the grooves — this album is agreat cure for the “syntho-pop alienation”blues, and I hope 80’s music picks up thehint.Mission of Burma, Vs.Mission of Burma are the best thing tocome out of Boston since baked beans, andthis album proves that their earlier EP was no fluke. They are the masters of what Iwistfully refer to as “bash” music — musicthat purges you of all your anger and frus¬tration as you dance with the wall as yourpartner. But you don’t have to hurt your¬self to enjoy this music. You just have tolike loud dissonant guitars, jerky thrash¬ing drums, and jarring screaming vocals.This is not an album for late night romance,but it’s great for enraging the neighbors.Translator, Heartbeats and TriggersTranslator appeals to my sappy side, al¬though their music is not what I’d expectfrom a bunch of wild-eyed dreamers. Theymove so effortlessly from a light, sixties-ish pop song to one bordering on “bash”that after a while it’s easy not to noticethe change. It’s amazing how they can singlyrics like “When I am with you I feelhappy” and not sound silly or banal. It’sgreat to hear sappy music that isn’t just anaural sleeping pill.The dB’s, RepercussionThe dB’s play pop with a capital P. Nottypical mindless ear candy, mind you, butthoughtful songs that are also delightfullytuneful. The band has a black humor that iseasily missed in the sweet harmonies but isreally endearing. Hum along to songsabout suicide, failed love affairs and be¬trayal, and have a great time doing it.Marshall Crenshaw, Marshall CrenshawMarshall plays pop too, a bit more mind¬lessly than the dB’s but no less endear¬ingly. If it weren’t for his brother Robert’spunchy drums pushing the songs to theirlimits and for his own canny pop sensibili¬ties, Crenshaw might have become the newChristopher Cross, making AM-perfect,disposable (but still pleasing) ditties. Luck¬ily, the music is too quirky to be dispos¬able, and it sure is a lot of fun to listen toand (dare I say it?) dance to. Sometimesit’s good to get off of your intellectual highchair and admit that a little mindless funcan be as good for the soul as Plato. The dB’sThe Embarrassment, TheEmbarrassmentEPThese guys are from Wichita, Kansas,but they’ve probably got more fans inNew York than in their home state. In con¬cert they look like a bunch of nice boysfrom the cornfields, but in a few songsthey quickly shed that image. They playan intelligent brand of (it was unavoid¬able) dance music that has more in commonwith the dB's than with the Foreigner/Jour-ney/Styx territory they come from. Theyaren’t afraid to offend either, as the leadsinger’s explicit onstage gestures during“Sex Drive” (which unfortunately is not onthe EP) demonstrate. The sound of the EP israther poor for the money, but where elsecould you find a song like “Elizabeth’sMontgomery’s Face?”XTC, English Settlement I know they’re not in vogue anymore,but I can’t help myself — I really like XTC. Ithink they get better with every album:somehow they smooth out the rough edgesto their sound without becoming any lessinteresting. Like Translator they're reallyjust a bunch of angry young saps, and theyseem more confortable with their sappi¬ness on this album than on their previousones. It's great to hear them rally againstsexism, racism, war, guns, and selfishness— few people anymore are willing to be“naive” enough to believe in causes.Tonio K., La BombaSample lyrics: “I hear Mars needswomen/ Maybe you should apply/Don’tworry about me baby/Have a good time.”Sure it's Heavy Metal, but you’ll be laugh¬ing too hard to notice.' / / / /' / / / / l/W /■//////*7/////////////by Paul MoliicaThe Fall, A Part of America, There in1981,(Rough Trade America)The Fall play the blues — a hemorr¬haged, Manchester version of the blues.They call it “country ‘n’ northern,” but it’seven more — it’s tribal! it’s lusty! it’s loud!it’s Faulkneresque! It’s also troubling andpainfully, painfully obscure. Betweentheir studio records and their liner-noteessays, it has always been hard to tellwhether this band means to be musical,verbal, comic, obscene, or something elseagain.A Part of America suppresses these am¬biguities, by presenting the band straight¬forwardly as performers. This documentstheir 1981 U S. tour, with refreshing newversions of their recent material. My fa¬vorite of the eight tracks here is “OlderLover,” a chant fixed on a marvellous,snake-charmer guitar line; like some greatjazz pieces, it’s atmospheric while notdropping into background noise. Amongthe other selections...“Totally Wired” and“Lie Dream of a Casino Soul” were splen¬ did singles that have translated nicely intolive performances; “Hip Priest” (per¬formed in Chicago) thumps and whinesalong expressively; and the two newsongs have a lot of meaty feedback onthem. A very attractive record — the onlydrawback is that it features none of thegreat early songs, like “Fiery Jack” and“Psycho Mafia.” (For those, you shouldseek out Early Years: *77- 79, available onI.R.S.)Robert Wyatt, “Shipbuilding” b/w “Memo¬ries of You”, “Round Midnight” (RoughTrade 12” single)It isn't likely that you'll hear a more poi¬gnant single than this one all year. “Ship¬building” was co-written with Elvis Costel¬lo. and it captures a Fabian's view of theFaulkland Islands war. The productionhere duplicates the effective jazz pianoand drum setting of his previous singles.On the B-side, there are two, spare rendi¬tions of old jazz classics — Eubie Blake's“Memories of You”, and TheloniousMonk's “Round Midnight.”Dead Kennedies Plastic Surgery Disasters(Alternative Tenticles); “Bleed For Me”b/w “Life Sentence" (Ait. Tenticles. 7” sin¬gle)Dead Kennedies are modern-day evan¬gelists of anarchy. The underlying philoso¬phy of their work is that everyone shouldthink for themselves and accept responsi¬bility for their actions. They are not at alltimid about their beliefs: they never lose achance — in concert, on vinyl, or in print —to communicate them. They can be as dog¬matic as some of their favorite right-wingtargets (the police, the armed forces, thereligious right, etc.), but their best songsare the ones that cut the other way: “Cali¬fornia uber Alles” lampooned the JerryBrown “mellow regime”, “Holiday in Cam¬bodia” rubbed Pol Pot in liberals' noses,and “Nazi Punks Fuck Off” condemned vio¬lence and conformity in the hardcorecrowd.Plastic Surgery Disasters is only theirsecond album in six years. (They also hadan EP in 1981, In God We Trust. Inc.) Writ¬ er/vocalist Jello Biafra remarked in aThrillseeker fanzine interview thatthey've "had trouble making friends withthe studio,” and it was this syndrome thathurt their first record. By trying to tran¬scribe their concert performance intovinyl, they had virtually no use for the stu¬dio except as a giant tape recorder; ev¬erything came out sounding the same.More attention is paid to production thistime, to considerable advantage. All ofthe songs on the first side are in the old,trademark, fast-mutant-heavy metal styleof their previous records. “Well-Paid Sci¬entist” and “Terminal Preppie' are goodsongs (but rotten tities). Side two dips intoStooges/MC5 heavy-sonic psychedelia —some songs even feature drawn-out, fu¬sion-styled guitar solos. This stuff mightactually appeal to non-punkers: FrankZappa fans, maybe.In preference to their LPs. I've alwaysliked DK singles for their directness andpugnacity. “Bleed for Me,” the A-side oftheir current 7” release, is on the album.“Life Sentence” is about grade-grubbingcollege students who care for nothing buttheir test scores and their careers. It'spretty noxious; buy a copy, and annoyyour pre-law friends with it.Hi Sheriffs Of Blue (Jimboco. 12” EP)This is a repackage of two, year-old sin¬gles by a band currently making its careerin the “Loisaida”, N.Y.C., no-wave scene.These are guaranteed to be the lowest fi¬delity recordings you'll find on the modernmarket. They were done this way on pur¬pose — in an effort to duplicate the am¬biance of old delta and urban-styled blues,everything was channeled through one(maybe two) microphones. What getspicked up is a snare drum, an electric gui¬tar (played through a sour amplifier) andsome cold-syrup-influenced vocals. Themost appealing thing about this packageis its bold effort to capture (aurally) themyth of the Loisaida — bohemian artisticcreation in the shadow of decay. Person¬ally, I take it as a form of vinyl black come¬dy — unsettling and entertaining within itslimited scope.THE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1983—7PROSE POEMS BY KEITH FLEMINGMOSQUITOES HEARAN OLD MAN TALKINGBeing old works unevenly. The veins ofbright yellow birch leaves are stillpumped with the green blood of spring.My hands might swim for a thousand yearsif not beached in the dry season of myblood. And my mind... yeah, I should cutmy head off and stick it on one of theseyoung necks I see everywhere. Then Icould, like, take advantage of being old.See, I used to be in convertibles when itcame dusk. We headed where the lightwas....Now the dusk smokes in black fromchimneys where they’re incinerating peo¬ple. Now I sit on my stoop and get bit. Yep,I’m the reek of meat to the skeeters...leastI still sweat.WE MUST BE WATCHEDWe've got to have communes. We can'tjust go on double dates when we feel likemixing! No, we've got tremendous possibi¬lities here. We need models...communeswhere people watch us and don’t let ournoses sniff the sleeping gas of the Sundaypaper. Communes where we are not al¬lowed to congeal our blood with the stupi-fication of American breakfast syrup.Where we are guided, always guided,back to the mangoes in the Chinese gro¬cery store, back to the bicycle path of thegirl who loves the beach and no one elsebut the blue absolutely blue blue sky!It's time we all got put on a strict allow¬ance. There should only be enough moneyin the world to buy one used Prokofiev re¬cord per year.WHAT WE MEAN BY BOHEMIANSomeone who lets his shirt taste wine.Who knows flowers thrive in the richsquishy earth of a newly-filled grave.Whose feet know the softness of warmworms in summer puddles. Whose tongueis panting-wet as a dog's. Who knows the spirit of music never flies in the New Yorksteak-breath atmosphere of an operahouse’s Mink Floor, but moves instead forboys wandering down a strange avenue atnightfall where the streetlights are smoth¬ered in bright growing leaves and a child’spiano practice tinkles out from one of theunlighted third story windows gone perb-lind in the twilight.LETTER FROM A LEPER...and you wonder why I am not hungry(...unbelievable....) Is it really beyondyour conceiving that someone this summermight have had an illness? And I mean anillness of the face? Or can you honestly tellme it never occurred to you I might havebeen a leper in July?Only windows came near this face. Atthree in the morning...when I pressed itstender discolorations to the screen andbreathed in what I could of the air all blos¬ soms out there where — where / should betravelling! In slippers slapped on summer-naked feet, on the romp to the girl’s apart¬ment down there where you get the smellof seaweed in your nostrils.But I stayed locked up. And I stayed uplate. Birds and all that racket they startchirping in the middle of the night wouldhave been pointless were not for my in¬somnia’s audience. I gave things audience.Processions of box cars rumbling the nightfreight out to where the switch yards oilthe rails with green lights. Empty owl ser¬vice city buses, for Christ sake, rollingaround radiance like sun-infused coralreefs.... Sure I let myself out eventually —in a cowl of fresh dark.Fresh dark. I suppose you know all aboutthat bleak-orange loneliness like the com¬ing on of streetlights one by one relumingon down the avenue, a double row of lone¬liness so long to look at, illuminatingstraight into the dusk without finding anypeople, blurring itself into streaks downby the end of the world, four blocks away,by a haunted elementary school probably, with blunt iron palisades pacing around ablacktop where leaves just give up andfloat on their backs in puddles sludgy asblood though it isn’t anywhere near fall.But maybe this isn’t romantic enough....PRAYERS NOT PHONECALLSThe bohemian is distinguished by hisshortness of breath. Inwardly he’s alwaysrunning, panicked, his feelings beat him upand could only find relief in the uprootingof trees, in the shaking of their crowns at’the sky, at God, at any other who dares toexist uncreated by him.Needless to say the bohemian cannotmake phone calls — only prayers.NIGHT DRIVINGNow it is night on the turnpike, and theysay it is my turn to drive the automo¬bile....1The automobile is a large tank of dark-green gasoline, with a sparkle of openroad moonlight (our gas cap — we lost it).In the dark-green gasoline a crocodile issubmerged: scales softened and combust¬ible in the sloshing tank. The crocodile’stail is bruised — furious! — from the pitch¬ing of the tank’s greased floor. Its clawsonly roll it as on fountain pens...aroundand a-slam! around and a-slam! againstthe four walls of the sweet-smelling tank.(The automobile throbs from the sputter¬ing of its snout).2The rear-view mirror has a way of goingblack — on the turnpike, when I am at thewheel. We have become the last car. Thestars in the windshield’s warped glass areheadlights of the lost cars (so easy to loseyour way if you roll down the windows,admit wind which streams through theblond hair of the dead boys).I must stay in my safety belt. I must notlet my hands tingle from the radiation ofthe speedometer. This automobile is darkwith sleeping friends and I must steer us inthe gentle curves of planets.<^C <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< BRUNCH5537 KMSARK 2E13710 SUNOAV 2/27 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<■ 1 l I.

BrownDean of the ChapelThe Chicago Maroon—Friday, February 25, 1983—15Reps debate over IHC futurecontinued from page oneAt present, the Council ot Dorm Presi¬dents meets only twice each quarter. “Wedon’t meet without a reason.” BroadviewPresident Steve Langkamp said. Pouey-mirou pointed out that the group works di¬rectly with the housing staff, and consists ofonly 11 members who always “show up" formeetings.Attendance does appear to be one majorproblem for IHC. Out of 38 seats on the coun¬cil only 28 are filled by members in goodstanding. Eleven out of the housing system’s34 houses are not represented at this time.Several of these houses did send representa¬tives to Tuesday’s meeting, but IHC officersdenied them voting privileges until theybring notes from their Resident Heads asthe IHC constitution requires.Poueymirou expressed concern that someIHC representatives are taking his effortsas a personal insult. “We are against the or¬ganization as a whole,” he said, not any indi¬viduals in particular.Both Anderson and Secretary Robert Kes-ter voiced displeasure with Poueymirou’sactions. “Poueymirou is not ethical,” Kes-ter said. The two are upset that Poueymirouand the other dorm presidents did not con¬tact them about disbanding IHC, but insteadwent directly to house representatives. “Iunderstand there's been quite a bit of intimi¬dation and arm-twisting of representa¬tives,” Kester said.Former IHC President Jim Campinellawas also surprised and dismayed at thethreat to IHC. “This is just as silly an orga¬nization as SG (Student Government) butnobody is running around saying ‘let’s dis¬band SG,’ ” he said.Anderson does not agree with Pouey¬mirou’s assessment of IHC’s performance. He considers IHC a viable organization andbelieves that although IHC can be bypassedin some instances, it still serves a legitimatepurpose for students in housing. He citedseveral examples of IHC’s activities.First, when Snell residents complainedthat the walkway from Hull Gate to theirdoorway was dangerously dark at night,IHC convinced security to have the light inthe biology laboratory archway left on allnight. Snell representative Lisa Beckermansaid, “The more channels that studentshave for problems with housing the bet¬ter.”Second, IHC is now7 working on two otherhousing-related projects. It intends to havesmoking and non-smoking areas marked offin the dining halls at Pierce, Burton Judson,and Woodward Court, and it will investigate possible ways to foster more regular busservice betxween the Shoreland andcampus. “A lot of students have missedclasses because of late buses,” Andersortsaid.Third, IHC has received permission tohold a Monte Carlo night gambling party atIda Noyes in mid-April. Funds for the partywill come from the $2000 surplus which IHChas accumulated over the past two years.Prizes may be donated from local busin¬esses. “Monte Carlo night has been put onthe back burner until we’re sure were goingto stay in existence,” Anderson said.If IHC does survive Tuesday’s meeting, asAnderson believes it will, Kester says thefirst item on the agenda will be a vote to re¬call Aronson. Kester and Anderson believeAronson has compromised his status as vice-president by working actively againstthe council.While many members agree with Ander¬son that IHC should be reformed and not dis¬banded, many do not. Several representa¬tives said their houses consider the IHC ajoke and have instructed them to vote for itsdemise. One representative said, “The bestreform for IHC would be to disband it andturn over its responsibilities to the council ofpresidents. Trying to modify IHC would belike beating a dead horse.”After watching her fellow IHC representa¬tives argue for two hours Tuesday, Treasur¬er Beth Prine said, “This is what we doevery week. We get nothing done, and I’man officer.” Prine says she will vote to dis¬band unless some major reforms aremade.Washington triumphantcontinued from page oneIn the 4th Ward, incumbent Alderman Ti¬mothy C. Evans appears to have beenforced into run-off with results in from 60 ofthe ward's 61 precincts. Evans had received9396 votes, or 46.1 percent of the total. To beelected, a candidate needs a majority of thevote. Preckwinkle received 4797 votes, or23.5 percent. Michael Wayne Smith wasthird with 3389, Maurice Perkins finishedfourth with 1520, Betty B. Booker was fifthwith 501, Excell Jones was sixth with 348,Muhuri Fahara finished seventh with 285,and Ronnie Terry was eighth with 162.Smith’s public relations director, HaroldLucas, charged that there was vote fraud inthe election, and said that he did not knowwho Smith would back in the 4th Ward run¬off. Lucas charged that there was “ghost voting, chain voting, and intimidation ofworkers, especially north of 47th St.” Hefurther said that the Smith campaign re¬ceived no help from either the US attorney’soffice or the Cook County State’s Attorney’soffice in dealing with the problems of votefraud.“Our vote total does not reflect our truesupport in the 4th Ward community,” hesaid, adding that Evans totals were “inflat¬ed” but that this problem will be correctedin the future as Smith’s forces “will bestronger” and able to deal with fraud prob¬lems.Lucas, in commenting on the choices forthe run-off, said that neither Evans norPreckwinkle will be able to fill the “vacuumof leadership” caused by the “schism” inthe ward between, the northern and theProfs, students discuss 9-week quartercontinued from page one“We re not in the business of making thisa party school,” Kishlansky said, but thefaculty believe that students should have“time to reflect upon what they are doing ortake a break from what they are doing.”The most discussed proposal at the meet¬ing was that for a nine-week quarter. Undersuch a proposal, nine full weeks would be de¬voted to teaching, with some combination ofa holiday in the middle of the quarter and areading period at the end or just a one-weekreading period at the end. Regarding theidea of a reading period, Kishlansky said,“Everyone is in favor of a reading period asa philosophical notion, but no one knowswhere it’s going to come from.”A fourth-year student in the College saidthat “cutting a week off of class time. . istrivial,” but most students disagreed. Ashow of hands revealed that only nine of thesixty-or-so students assembled wanted anine-week quarter.Another idea which Straus and Kish¬lansky presented was that of introducingmore Monday-W’ednesday one-and-one-half hour classes. This would give students thechance to get away for a longer weekend byeliminating most Friday afternoon classes.Straus and Kishlansky discounted the notionthat this proposal, if implemented, wouldturn the U of C into a “suitcase campus.”The two professors said that it would beimpossible for the University to cut down onthe number of required courses in order toeliminate some of the stress. The Universitycould accomplish this de facto, however, if itwere to grant credit for courses more easily,based on Advanced Placement test. Givingstudents a wider range of courses fromwhich they can fulfill the requirementsmight also help to reduce the stress. Thepossibility of increasing the number ofcourses which may be taken on a pass-nopass basis was also raised. Kishlansky saidthat the steering committee will be lookinginto all of these.One idea which apparently is not up fordiscussion is that of a two-semester year.When one student said that he didn’t under¬stand why the College isn’t on a two-semester system, Lorna Straus admitted, “We don’t know either.” W’hen the subjectcame up later in the meeting, though, Strausstated, “We have been instructed that that(the idea of a semester system) is not a sub¬ject for discussion.”Straus and Kishlansky closed the meetingby discussing the seriousness of the prob¬lems which the current system creates.They noted that the number of student visitsto psychiatric offices for serious stress prob¬lems has increased, as has the number ofstudents dropping out of the College forstress-related reasons. Evidence also existsthat prospective students often choose to goto other schools because of the stressful en¬vironment here. All of these factors will beof importance when the College Councilcomes to a decision on the proposals of thesteering committee, they said.The results of Wednesday’s meeting withthe representatives of the College CouncilCommittee will be the main topic of discus¬sion at the next meeting of the Student Gov¬ernment Assembly, Tuesday in Stewart 106at 7:30 p.m. All Assembly members areurged to attend. southern ends, as the IVI-IPO and the Regu¬lar Democratic Organization compete forpower. Neither Evans nor Preckwinklewere available for comment on the chargesof Lucas or their strategies in the run-offcampaign.Harold Washington won both the 4th and5th Wards in his successful bid for the Dem¬ocratic mayoral nomination. Washingtoncombined a strong turnout of black supportfor him along with somewhat strong supportalong the north lakeshore wards to defeatMayor Jane Byrne and State’s AttorneyRichard M. Daley.The latest counts for the 4th Ward showedWashington with 17,761 votes, to Byrne’s3093 and Daley’s 1941. In the 5th Ward,Washington garnered 17,533 votes, whileByrne received 3085 votes and Daley 2331votes. In 5th ward Hyde Park precincts,Washington won all but the 24th, 33rd, and38th, which Daley captured.Should Washington follow Chicago’s long¬standing tradition and win the general elec¬tion as the Democratic candidate, a scram¬ble could develop for his congressional seat.Two top contenders could be State RepLarry Bullock and State Rep. Carol MoseleyBraun. However, Washington would have agreat deal of influence in determining hissuccessor.PublicationnoticeThe Maroon will publish threemore issues prior to the Universi¬ty’s spring break.

A re-cap of quarterfinal action:Salisbury/Vincent vs. Greenwood — Inthe midst of a round of upsets, Salis¬bury/Vincent stunned a strong Greenwoodteam, in a surprisingly even game. Everytime the Warshaw-Peterson connectionbegan to click, Bill Marton and Pat Endobrought up the Salisbury boys with a fury.The game was close throughout the first halfand into the second.
