According to Stuart Sha-pira, chair of the Subcommittee onHousing, “there seems to be a gen¬eral feeling of isolation, especiallywithin different dorm complexes.We have proposed that an indepen¬dent group on campus be estab¬lished to foster interaction be¬tween houses and dorms.”In the course of developing theRoundtable, the subcommitteewent to the Inter-House Council(IHC) for student feedback on theRoundtable proposal. Shapira saidthat the proposal was met with en¬thusiasm. Before continuing plansof actually implementing Roundt¬able, IHC set the precedent for aRoundtable prototype.John Vail, next year’s IHC presi¬dent said that “IHC started a pro¬totype of Roundtable called theProvisional Allocation Committee(PAC) before the idea of Roundt¬able was passed.” PAC is set uplike the proposed Roundtable.Shapira said that PAC has beenmeeting for the past two weeks.“PAC of IHC has been fostering dorm interaction of a small scale,”said Shapira. PAC has a smallbudget compared to what is beingenvisioned with Roundtable. A fewstudy breaks between certainhouses have been planned.“Roundtable envisions a larger-scale budget on the order of $15,000to fulfill the need on campus to en¬hance housing interaction,” Sha¬pira said.Given the current economic con¬dition of the University, it has beensuggested that room rent con¬tracts be increased next year totwo dollars per quarter, or six dol¬lars per year. This would amount to approximately $12,000 annually.The remainder of the budget wouldbe supported by pre-existing Hous¬ing funds.The only link between IHC andRoundtable would be the IHC vice-president chairing Roundtable.IHC vice-president Michael Aron¬son said, “Before the IHC wasdoing, for example, ten things verypoorly. Now the IHC will concen¬trate on issues and do five thingswell and let Roundtable concen¬trate on the monetary issues anddo five things well.”c ontinued or, page lb PHOTO BY ARA JELALIANRoundtable participants (left to right) Manuel Garreton,John Coatsworth, Lubosh Hale (moderator), Gidon Gott¬lieb, and Louis GoodmanSharp US competitive edge urgedBy Steve ShandorA committee of the Business-Higher Education Forum, formedof leading industrialists and nineuniversity presidents, has issued areport calling for a coordinated ef¬fort on the part of business, gov¬ernment and universities to im¬prove America’s competitive edgein the international market. Titled“America’s Competitive Chal¬lenge: The Need for a National Re¬sponse,” the report stresses the need “to enter into new coopera¬tive alliances” in order to helpAmerica regain its superiority “inthe commercial application of sci¬entific discoveries and technologi¬cal advances.”Nancy O’Fallon, Assistant Vice-President for Research Programsat the U of C, thinks that the kindsof issues raised by the report arebeing addressed by the Universityand particularly at the ArgonneNational Laboratory. O'Fallon said that much of the business-con¬tracted research done at Argonnenow is short-term, involving an¬swers to specific questions put tothe researchers by industry. TheLaboratory is looking to more ex¬tensive interaction, O'Fallon said,and eventually would like to have apartnership with business forlonger-term research.The committee members blameshort-sighted business objectivesand misguided government fund-Wirszup calls for educational mobilizationBy Michael ElliottU of C Mathematics professorlzaak Wirszup v/ill appear beforethe HUD-Independent Subcommit¬tee of the Senate AppropriationsCommittee next Tuesay to testifythat the United States must beginan “educational mobilization” inscience and mathematics.This testimony is the latest in aseries of Wirszup’s attempts toawaken the government to what hesees as the degeneration of theUnited States educational systemin mathematics and science, anear-collapse that threatens theability of the US to remain eco¬nomically and technologicallycompetitive in the world. Wirszupfirst reported this conclusion,which has touched off a nationwidefuror like that following the Sput¬nik launch, after completing in De¬cember of 1979 a detailed study ofcurrent Soviet secondary educa¬tion literature.Wirszup cites startling statis¬tics, such as the drop in literacywhich moved in the past 15 yearsthe US from 18th to 49th place ofthe 152 member nations of the UNin percentage of literacy, and the80 percent drop in qualified mathteachers during the past decadethat caused one half of all elemen¬tary and secondary science andmath teachers to fill positions forwhich they were not qualified, hav¬ing less than 18 college credits inscience and math. During the same period of time,Wirszup points out, the USSR hascompletely revolutionized both thepractice and theory of science edu¬cation, increasing both the accessof science and mathematics edu¬cation to the masses and the quali¬ty of its teaching. Whereas, 75 per¬cent of American high-schoolfreshmen now complete their sec¬ondary education, 98 percent of So¬viet students do. Whereas less than10 percent of US high school stu¬dents take one year of physics andless than 20 percent take one yearof chemistry, all Soviet studentslzaak Wirszup must take five years of physicsand four years of chemistry.According to Wirszup. Sovietstudents finish five years of biolo¬gy and geography, three years ofmechanical drawing, and 10 yearsof workshop training. Further¬more, the Soviet Union is movingaway from the mind-numbing, re¬petitive memorization that hascharacterized much early mathe¬matical training in both the US andthe USSR. Relying on a little-no¬ticed 1959 French study thatshowed the learning of geometryto be far more complex and flex¬ible than previously believed, theSoviets have introduced a ten-yearcourse in geometry that gives stu¬dents a far clearer conception ofspatial relationships, which Wirs¬zup will believes is essential tomany areas of technical designand engineering.According to Wirszup, this re¬form, which has been underwaysince a directive issued from theEighth Five-Year-Plan of 1966,was seen as nothing more thanpropaganda by most Western ex¬perts. But the Soviets have taken itvery seriously, creating a systemthat keeps every student in schoolthrough secondary level, guidingthem into a course of study corre¬sponding to individual ability andensuring a large pool of well-trained, educated laborers.Of course, there are questionsabout how effective the Soviets have been in implementing theirgoals, Wirszup says. It is easy tomanipulate outside perceptions ofa secretive, totalitarian society,and what is being accomplished inurban schools may not be accom¬plished in their rural counterparts.According to Sovietologists in theRand Corporation, the Russianschool in the countryside is littlebetter than the one-room school-house of American frontier days.And even if the Soviets are suc¬ceeding in creating a nation oftechnical wizards, they will stillplay a terrific social price. Onlyone in 10 students go on to universi¬ties, (the rest go on to vocationalschool or directly into the laborforce) and there are simply notenough positions requiring techni¬cal or professional expertise in theeconomy to accommodate the fivemillion secondary school studentswho graduate each year.The Soviet Union is able to spendmuch time training students inscience and mathematics becauseit ignores the humanistic disci¬plines. History is restricted to aquick sketch of the founding anddevelopment of Communism. Lit¬erature is restricted to a one-yearRussian literature course whosetypical writing assignment mightbe nothing more than a parrotingof a Marxist hero storv.Continued on page ing for the recent decline in Ameri¬ca’s technological competitivene¬ss. “Since I960." the report states,“the proportion of industriallyfunded (research and develop¬ment) devoted to basic researchfell from eight percent to four per¬cent.”Concerning federally funded re¬search, the report notes. “The USgovernment spends substantiallyless than governments of other in¬dustrialized nations on projects tostimulate industrial developmentand growth.”To improve this situation, thecommittee recommends that “thecentral objective of domestic poli¬cy for the remainder of the decademust be to improve the ability ofAmerican industry and Americanworkers to compete on an interna¬tional scale.” The committee goeson to say that bolstering US com¬petitiveness can be achieved onlythrough “the collaboration of allsegments of society — govern¬ment. business, education, andlabor — as well as individual citi¬zens.”In order to revitalize America'sworkforce, the committee suggests“a coherent, comprehensive na¬tional displaced worker programmodeled after the GI Bill with itseducational ‘vouchers.’ ” Such aprogram would be funded “jointlyby employers, employees, and thefederal government.”The committee places its grea¬test stress on improving the quali¬ty and kind of university researchprograms, though. The memberssuggest that industry provide fi¬nancial assistance to universitiesfor the purpose of renovating or re¬placing obsolete equipment. Thecommittee advises that equipmentproblems in general could be alle¬viated if there were a system of“specialization by institution(with) shared facilities, and ar¬rangements with local indus¬tries.”Continued on page 18Contacts for Sale!What Is A Bargain?The 4 questions most frequently asked about contact lenses are:1 How Much Are Your Lenses72 How Much Are Your Lenses73 How Much Are Your Lenses74 How Much Are Your Lenses7What is really more important, the lowest price, or the best fit¬ting lenses?

In aseparate action, she was also named chairof the newly created House Select Commit¬tee on the Chicago World’s Fair.On the commission, Currie succeedsformer Rep. Susan Catania as permanentchair. “Under Susan’s leadership,” saidCurrie, “this Commission dealt with majorconcerns in the lives of women and theirfamilies today, from child care to teenagepregnancy, from infant mortality to equali¬ty of pay for equal work.”“We will continue her work,” Currie said,“and I am honored to follow her — and ourfirst chair, Esther Saperstein — in thispost.” The Commission was established bythe General Assembly in 1967.The 10-member World’s Fair Committee— six Democrats and four Republicans —was also named today. “This select commit¬tee,” said Currie, “will hear bills dealingwith the proposed 1992 Fair, but its largerrole may well be in holding oversight hear¬ ings and helping to guide the promotion ofthis Fair in directions that will benefit resi¬dents of our state and city. Certainly, I willwork to involve and inform the public atevery step of the process.” Another south¬east side legislator, Rep.

USC is one of thefirst schools to use the OpticalScanning Computer AssistedRegistration system, which letsstudents determine their fallschedules before leaving school forthe summer, instead of having theschool notify students duringvacation. Most students andadministrators liked the system, butthe director of registration said thatstudents needed to remember thatthey had to show' up at theirappointments — fewer than 60 percentof students did each day.Cheerleader boosThe father of a black University ofPennsylvania student who was notchosen for the school’s cheerleadingsquad is questioning the methods usedto decide who makes the squad and who does not. The morning that thestudent heard that she was not chosenfor the squad, her father called theschool’s sports information office toask about the nature of the decision:The Cheerleading co-captains, a whitewoman and a black man, said thatthey did not feel the squad was biasedin any way, citing the number ofblacks at the tryouts and currently onthe team.Tuition Riot“Two, four, six, eight, we can’tafford to graduate!” was one ofseveral slogans chanted by angry MITstudents as they protested against theschool’s tuition increases. In a“Spontaneous Tuition Riot”Congressman Bruce A. Morrison, whograduated from MIT in 1965, said thatfederal and state governments shouldassist MIT in providing equaleducational opportunities by focusingon ability, not need, and that the draftregistration law should be repealed inits entirety. The rally was alsosupported, in absentia, by Sen.Edward M.

The Council, however, has yetto come to some agreement on the form thatthese fees might possibly take. Rumors arestarting to circulate that some type of newfee may be instituted as early as next fall. Inlight of the ambiguity of the present situa¬tion, I would like to raise a few points.(1) When the administration states thatfees would not affect current students, howare “current students” being defined? Arecurrent students all those currently in resi¬dence at the U of C or only those currentlyunregistered? What about students whotake a leave of absence from their studies?What about the possibility of retroactivepayments?(2) If the administration is intent on im¬posing fees (for revenue or other reasons),then it should demonstrate its good faith byintroducing specific reforms, such as theprovision of office space, the development ofa research institute or institutes, expandedopportunities for teaching in the College, etc., so that fees are, to some extent, com¬mensurate with services received. These re¬forms should be in addition to granting ad¬vanced graduate students the same rightsand privileges as all other students at thisuniversity. (Privileges include the use of thelibrary and student health service, access tostudent housing and student health insur¬ance rates, plus the ability to borrow moneythrough the university and to defer studentloans.)(3) It would only be right and proper if fu¬ture classes were informed of any new poli¬cy before acceptances of admission aremailed out. That way, students could makean informed decision as to whether or not toattend graduate school at this or any otheruniversity.Finally, it should be noted that higher edu¬cation throughout the nation today is beingrun more and more in accordance withshort-term financial considerations ratherthan longer-term academic interests. It isclear in these hard economic times — Rea¬gan’s budget cuts notwithstanding — thatsome of the ideals of graduate educationmight have to be compromised. But it ispainful to see educational opportunities attop institutions being based less on meritand more on the individual’s ability to pay.The still more dangerous trend is that manyof the ideals of graduate education are gra¬dually being abandoned by those who con¬sider themselves economically hard-nosed,if not economically enlightened.The Chicago MaroonThe Chicago Maroon is the official student newspaper of the University of Chicago.

Reviewing incidents in recent months, we mustquestion why the University acts as it does towards the unions, and what effectsthe University’s attitudes towards the unions may have on its workers and theirjob performances in the future.In January, the campus security officers voted to replace Local 200 of theIllinois Confederation of Police as their negotiating representative. The securityofficers selected Local 710 of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters astheir new negotiating arm. While Local 710 does represent other securityworkers at other locations, the University questioned the legality of Local 710representing University security. The administration maintained that as otherTeamsters locals represent other types of workers at the University, Local 710was prohibited by the National Labor Relations Act from representing securityofficers.Perhaps Local 710 should not represent other security workers at other loca¬tions as it does now, and perhaps it is indeed prohibited by the National LaborRelations Act from representing University security officers. Nevertheless, theofficers are still working without a contract, as they have done since Feb. 1, andeven if the NLRB rules in favor of the security guards and Local 710, the Univer¬sity may follow the example of the Starzl case and call for a hearing to deter¬mine if it is really in the wrong. The University may decide to keep securitywithout a contract and fight the issue in court, in what may be an effort to keepTeamsters from gaining a stronger bargaining position at the University.In April, the administration reached agreement on a new contract with itsregistered nurses six weeks after the nurses’ previous contract expired. Theextended negotiations were preceded by another set of long negotiations to dealwith wage adjustments fo the nurses.While some defense for the University may be made in the above cases, therecent Starzl case most clearly indicates the administration’s attitudes towardsits employees. As reported in the Maroon last Tuesday, the administration be¬lieves it needs a hearing to determine what the faculty union has already discov¬ered: that the NLRB has ruled in favor of Regina Starzl in her quest to recoverher former position in the Lower School. While the University maintains thatshe really is needed as a high school counselor despite her extensive educationas a lower school counselor, no explanation has been given as to why the facul¬ty’s “freedom of speech” was seemingly impaired in the latest contract, theissue which originally led to Starzl’s “involuntary transfer,” by which the Uni¬versity has been found guilty of “unfair labor practice.”The University, through its desire for a “hearing” in the Starzl case, follows apattern in delaying negotiations with the security guards and extending negotia¬tions with the nurses. Apparently, the University believes that if a problem isdelayed long enough, it will disappear, and the employees will submit to theUniversity’s desire for short-term economic gains as the University gains theupper hand on its workers. Such tactics may indeed give the University short¬term economic gains, but the future may see a demoralized work force through¬out the University which could cause more harm than short-term gains can everrepair.The possible institution of continuous reg¬istration fees, while a relatively minor issuein the total educational picture, is neverthe¬less important to us students. If new policiesare being considered, the students’ best in¬terests should be kept in mind at all times,for we are the party most affected. Hopeful¬ly, final decisions will be made fairly andreasonably and with the students’ expressedapproval.Julia W. RaithGraduate Student in the Social SciencesSG coveragelo the editor:Let us hope that the “media is not themessage.” This hope came to mind after Iread the Maroon last week. Although we(SG) had a very productive meeting lastweek, and though SG has not misspent stu¬dent funds, and I felt like we had not metand that anyone who is in SG must be awashin a variety of slushfunds - needed to attendStudent Conferences in Paris or Antiguaperhaps or wining and dining Hanna at theRitz.First of all, most of the past SG spendingproblems reflected the miscommunicationamongst the officers and chairpeople - nottelling anyone when ads were placed etc. Itis a problem that can, is and will be dealtwith. SG obviously will spend money to ef¬fectively pursue its projects, services andgeneral activities, but this means spendingmoney efficiently too.What upset me more was the total lack ofcoverage of last week’s meeting. At least SGhas some kind of “mission.” It has seemedthat the Maroon has had little concern withmission, service; journalistic, information¬al or otherwise.This is not the space for an article butbriefly we elected new Finance Committeemembers, discussed Committee Chair Ap¬pointments, the SSA problems and theRoundtable proposal. Most notably, we passed the following resolution:The University of Chicago StudentGovernment supports the efforts ofSSA Ad Hoc Committee on Handicap¬ped Access and calls upon the admin¬istration of the University to seriouslyconsider and to implement effectivemeasures in making the campus ac-cessable to handicapped students.We will be sending a supporting letter to theMaroon and appropriate Administration of¬ficials.Next week, Tuesday, May 24, 7:30 p.m.,Stuart 105 we will make some CommitteeChair appointments, SFA Chief Justice ap¬pointment, discuss SG projects (MemorialDay etc.), Ex-Libris governing arrange¬ments, Finance Committee recommenda¬tions, and finish SSA and Roundtable pro¬posals.I urge you to come - there is a lot to findout about the University and much that youcan get involved with. As the last meetingthis quarter, it will be a good opportunity totake a look at our SG.As a footnote to this letter, the Maroon didsend a reporter to our (May 17) meeting. Iappreciate that - thank you - I trust it willcontinue. Unfortunately, because of con¬flicting events (IHC., housing lottery,Roundtable) and unusual meeting time, wejust missed quorum. But given our only rea¬son to meet so quickly again was to expediteour SSA efforts and since we are still await¬ing an official administration response, theloss was not crucial.I would, however, like to get people think¬ing of committee involvement - so if anyoneis interested in the areas of Academic Af¬fairs, University Services, SG Activities, SGservices, Community Affairs, Inter-Collegiate relations, Credit Union, Studentrepresentation, please contact myself orTimmy Wong (2-8342), or the SG office(962-9732). Joe WalshSG President6—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 20, 1983ViewpointsIntellectuals: spirits in the material world—■ rather than pawns under imperialist ruleBy Will HartleyIf we were to follow the logic of certain statesmen, asJohn Conlon pointed out in last week’s Maroon, the crisis inthe world today might be reduced to the struggle betweentwo opposed forces, the socialist and non-socialist camps,conceived as a huge game of chess, black against white.Depending on which side one chooses, all science, humani¬ty, freedom, justice, hope and truth tend to be embodied inone while the opposites of these characteristics are embo¬died in the other. Based on this analysis, some of our states¬men devise their long-range political and military strategy,while in the immediate present their thinking and practicerarely rise above the level of a petty, uncertain, selfishscheming. So that no matter what magnanimous and nobleideals and sentiments they claim to uphold and represent inthe international community, the world seems perpetuallyset upon the brink of war. All-out war, though both theUSSR and the USA, as well as some of the minor contes¬tants, or “allies,” spend vast amounts of social and materi¬al resources in preparation for it, car mean nothing else butall-out destruction; a repetition of Hiroshima and Nagasakion an intercontinental scale leaving cities scalding caul¬drons of human flesh and the atmosphere a ubiquitousdeadly smog. Julia Wagner, Pierrette Mimi Poinsett andJuan Mora-Torres have suggested a way to seek alterna¬tives to such a scenario. The University community shouldgive serious consideration to the proposal for a Center forPeace Studies.As stated in the proposal one purpose of the Center wouldbe to work out the practical means for achieving disarma¬ment and international cooperation. Another task, and onethat would be especially appropriate because of the Univer¬sity’s strength in humanist studies, might be a general cri¬tique and re-evaluation of contemporary political science,its principle concepts and underlying assumptions. We needto inquire into how arms build-up policies (such as MutuallyAssured Destruction or MAD) can be produced by men ofscientific and technical expertise and come to be acceptedas rational by the lay public. We need to examine assump¬tions such as the claim that security is based on maximumpower. It is now clear to almost everybody that each newnuclear weapon built by the state to increase its powerleads not to security but to the greater threat of total an¬nihilation.There are those who claim they could survive a nuclearwar; China even went so far as to make that claim a kind ofnational defense policy. And in the USA, there are thosewho claim that we can fight it somewhere else; in Europe,for example. Or in outer space. The prospect of a post-World War Three planet, however, leaves mankind every¬where shuddering.And yet there is no shortage of intellectuals and techni¬cal-scientific experts who offer their talents and abilities todevising curious new weaponry, elaborating battle scen¬arios, and laying out half-baked plans for “civil defense.”One imagines the evacuation of Manhattan Convoys of blueMTA busses trying to creep across the George WashingtonBridge; cars jamming the Holland Tunnel, bottle-necked atthe toll gates, stalled along the expressway...cars wreckedand smoking at the sides of the road, people wanderingabout in a frenzied panic, a Le Weekend that no one willsurvive to film. The best deterrent to the impending war isgreater preparation according to a host of generals, armsmanufacturers and current administrations who go on de¬manding billion dollar battleships, mobile misslelaunchers, and enhanced radiation warheads (neutronbombs). Dreaming of laser beams and hunter-killer satel¬lites, they seem oblivious of the actual daily needs that gounmet in the hearts of the cities and countryside they are soeager to protect. Nor is there a shortage of writers and ar¬ tists to romanticize such projects, filling films and storieswith fantastically exciting scenes of spacecraft, aircraft,seacraft, obliterating one another with zaps, rays, andblasts. Meanwhile, in lieu of (or leading to) the final cata¬clysm, there are those episodes that the best and brightestof the early sixties liked to refer to as “brush fires”: theBay of Pigs, the Cuban missile crisis, the Sinai War, Viet¬nam, and on and on. To intensify, complement and compli¬cate these “minor” outbreaks of hot war, there is also theenduring reality of the cold war, the recessions and depres¬sions of national economics, the unequal relations betweenundeveloped and industrialized nations. Man goes to themoon to collect rocks and dust and brings them back to anearth suffering famine and drought. Inflation of aspira¬tions, stagnation of real development.For each Hungary there are several Chiles, and for Italyand its move towards the “historic compromise” there isalways a Kissinger to step forward and proclaim that com¬munism must be stopped by any means necessary. We wit¬nessed the translation of this policy into practice in Chile in1973, just as we witness it today in El Salvador and else¬where. Sabotage, terror, imprisonment, torture, execu¬tions, censorship, the burning of books and villages. Theseare the methods of the military dictators at the head ofwhat one ambassadress likes to call “friendly authoritariangovernments.” Imperialists have a knack for stoppingcommunism by killing democracy. From Argentina to Gua¬temala, from Czechoslovakia to Poland, popular democrat¬ic movements are distorted according to the dictates of theglobal chess players. The governments of the “free world”gather forces and consider the proper proportion of nuclearweapons for NATO; the people of the free world marchagainst nuclear installations. After the Jimmy Carter,there is the Henry Jackson or the Ronald Reagan or someother talking head to fill up the TV screens. No wonderthere is a sense of danger and crisis among people whothink.Our minds are raped by war, by accounts of torture, byviolence in the street; our bodies are inflicted by drugs, ourair and water and soil are threatened, our ear drums arebeaten in by the deafening noise of our own machines. Whenthe soldiers returned from Hamburger Hill to toss their pur¬ple hearts into a void of unemployment and cold sympathy,the word went round that a spiritual crisis was at hand. Norwas there a lack of entrepreneurs ready to reach out: JesusFreaks, Moonies, Gurus galore, the Maharaj-ji, Sciento¬logy, EST, TM, etc. The media rarely lack a Charles Man-son, a Symbionese Liberation Army, a John Gacy, a Rever¬end Jim Jones.Something happened, something went wrong; somethingis amiss and in need of attention. That cities cannot affordadequate transportation or sanitation services, that chil¬dren should go through ten years of schooling and neverlearn how to read with pleasure, that a black family cannotmove into a neighborhood without facing threats and fire¬bombs, that white parents fear to send their children to integrated schools, that political leaders with a sense of integ¬rity die as Malcolm X, John Kennedy, Martin Lut ler King.Fred Hampton, and Robert Kennedy died; that a RichardMilhouse Nixon should become president of the UnitedStates of America are particular elements of a polticalcrisis that is just one aspect of the general world crisis Ifcocaine parties were the only parties for White House per¬sonnel to get high in, the nation might have less to be con¬cerned about. But it is not only a question of demogogicdemocrats, repulsive republicans, lame liberalism and un¬conscious conservatism in the political arena. There isalways a Honeywell to make shattering steps forward withits fragmentation bombs, a Dow to make napalm and otherunhealthy contributions to the environment, a Nestle to feed the infants of the world at a less than healthy profit.Meanwhile Ford has better ideas, ITT has the lines andpulls the strings, you make waves and you wake up withcement shoes drinking the Potomac. Or with jets bombingthe Moneda. Hertz reigns number one everywhere. It’s aPepsi generation.When there is no way out we look in; when there is noth¬ing to look forward to we look back. From the spectacle ofstadiums packed with a hundred thousand fans to the innergame of tennis, from space odysseys to museum extrava¬ganzas on dead civilizations, we seek the key to the pyra¬mids as if without eyes. Farm prices go down, rents go up.The housewife points at the rancher, the rancher points atthe banker, the banker builds more pyramids.History can be charged with the death of god but neverwith the death of spirit. Intellectuals have looked into histo¬ry and found it not lacking in gods, but lacking in proof ofgods’ existence. Bringing back this news upsets all thosewho feel they cannot go on in a god-forsaken world. Yet theyignore or dismiss the very principles immanent in mankindand development through centuries of travail that allowman to imagine and aspire towards the divine. They want aparadise they can check into in the after-life, like theycheck into the Holiday Inn in this life. They want a god tolook after them eternally, the way the god-like figures oftheir childhood watched over them as they grew up. Other¬wise how do we bear the present suffering, why live accord¬ing to moral restraints and law? The great confusion arisesout of the de facto and base materialism of this position,immersed as it is in the life of the body, and denying(though not in words) the lie of the spirit. And yet the pro-selytizers provide scant relief for the life of the body. Agreat confusion flows from those who have stakes in thename and image of the lord. Those who stand to lose whenthe reality if immanent spirit is affirmed, when spiritualityis no longer the sectarian concern of Sunday mornings onlybut permeates daily praxis on an ongoing and ever-renewedbasis. This confusion set off by religious machiavellians isparallel to and intereacts with the confusionist tactics of thesecular machiavellians. Everywhere those in power enjoy¬ing unearned office are afraid, and in their fear cling towhatever will impart to them authority. Empty authority isfrightened authority; it grasps hold of its hollow sceptre*and worn-out ideas; it is suspicious of all those who approach; it sees usurpation in every act of justice. It is thisbattle for power here and now, this battle for hearts andminds that is measured in body counts and other morbidstatistics, this incessant grasping in which spirit is forgot¬ten and mortally endangered. There are still those who be¬lieve that was is an excellent means of getting the economyout of a depression.History has shown that gods come and go. their nameschange, their messengers bring good tidings and disappearBut if history shows the incoherence, lack or death of gods,it does not show the death of spirit. Where man endures,spirit lives; in times of ascent and descent. A great confu¬sion arises from this lack of critical ability to distinguishwhat causes the death of spjrit, to discern the materialitythat is life from the materialism that brings death. Thegreat confusion arises from this charge against history forbringing news that raises those at the bottom and threatensthose at the top of the social pyramid. And the confusionand danger will persist as long as intellectuals have not de¬termined who and where they are, as long as they continueto pass on orders and elaborate plans for the construction ofmachines and schemes of self-destruction. Are we free tochoose? Let us be spirits in the material world rather thanpawns under imperialist rule.TORAHIS ALIVE AND WELLIN ISRAEL(212) 751-6070 5309 S.

The stripes arealways vertical, always 8.7 cm in width;white or ‘transparent’ stripes always al¬ternate with another color, which varies.The external size and shape of the worksalso vary. The stripes are either woveninto cloth or printed on paper — neither ofthese processes are done by Buren — andonly the end stripes are painted. It is cen¬tral to the project that the works are exhi¬bited as painting. More precisely, they re¬sult from a theoretical critique of painting,the history of its production and the prod¬uction of its history. The aim is to producea rupture in both.The problems his work addresses datefrom Cezanne and before. In his article‘Standpoints’ (Studio International, 4/71),Buren analyzes how questions raised byCezanne about representation, perspec¬tive, the subject and the method of paint¬ ing, were subsequently covered over bothby the art historical process, and by therepeated assumption of the cubists andother artists that the problems had beensolved. Each time the questions wereraised, the hegemonic order succeeded inrepressing them. The dominant order doesnot consist simply of institutions but ofideologies which are re/produced as muchby artists, critics and viewers as by muse¬ums, galleries, and art historians. Byworking through the ways in which this re¬pression has been accomplished, Buren at¬tempts to raise the same and further ques¬tions in a way that cannot be so easilyaccommodated.“The Object, the Real, Illusion. Any arttends to decipher the world, to visualizean emotion, nature, the subconscious,etc...Can we pose a question rather thanreplying always in terms of hallucina¬tions? This question would be: can onecreate something which is real, non-illu-sionistic and therefore not an art object?”(Daniel Buren, ‘Beware’, Studio Interna¬tional, 3/70) Buren sets out to produce artwhich is not based in, and cannot be seenas, an illusion or vision, which will haveneither ‘emotional or anecdotal impact ’: asign of zero value, a sign which accrues novalue because it cancels out its own value.Because Buren’s work always consists ofstripes of uniform width, there is no inter¬nal conflict and no narrative — not even aformal narrative. Because the externalsize of the works varies there is no mean¬ingful relation between the size of thework and the width of the stripes: thus nocomposition and no fixed form. The repeti¬tion insures that no work will be seen asunique. The differences introduced in eachinstance keep one version from being seenas uniquely necessary. To repeat the sameform over and over would be, as Burensays, to deify it. For the same reasons, thecolor of the stripes is changed from workto work. The colors become equal in signi¬ficance, and thus insignificant, becausethey are substitutable one for another.The choice of one in any particular workappears as a random choice.The work is like a language game inwhich the goal is to say nothing over andover again, without ever allowing the rep¬etitions to become a whole which means:this is the way to say nothing. Conceivedof in this way any ‘artistic development’gives the game away; while at the sarpetime no change at all would both turn theimage into an icon, and Buren into a greatascetic. It is integral to Buren’s project that he not produce a progression, a biog¬raphy. One of the way that art whichraises subversive questions is neutralizedis by focusing on the ‘inspired creator’ whois seen as having a special artistic genius.The artist comes to overshadow theworks, which become illustrations of theartist s biography.Buren works to avoid the mystificationof the process of painting through severaltactics. To begin with, he refuses to dosomething new: ‘‘To abandon the searchfor a new form at any price means tryingto abandon the history of art as we knowit: it means passing from the mythical tothe Historical, from the illusion to thePeal” (‘Beware’). Additionally, by mini-malizing the painting involved in produc¬ing a ‘painting’ he refrains from the ac¬tions which allow magical accounts ofcreation by physical touch (a la the cre¬ation of man in the Sistine Chapel), such asthe brush arranging the paint, leaving amark on the canvas. Furthermore, Burenhas on several occasions had other peopleexecute parts of the installation. In Lu¬gano in ‘67 randomly chosen people paint¬ed the outer stripes; and in Seattle in ‘69 agroup of people hung striped paper invarious locations.Continued on page 4MEETING NOTICEThe Seminary Co-op will hold a special membershipmeeting to discuss plans for opening an additional storein Hyde Park at 57th and Kimbark.

Though the reference isclever, I worry about its tendency toglorify and set the artist abovehis/her art and audience. I am waryof the historical interpretation ofthe artist as genius, for it tends todiminish the relevance of art in oureveryday lives, and instead placesit in museums, churches, and thehands of the wealthy few. The art inthis show, however, specifically at¬tempts to avoid alienating its audi¬ence. A figurative sculpture not onlypresents a recognizable, and there¬fore accessible image, but alsoenters into its audience’s space.Many of the figures in the showsuccessfully arouse emotion in theviewer. Paul Thek’s “Arm” and“Warrior’s Leg” are too powerful tolook at, as is, to a lesser extent,Manuel Neri’s "Remaking of MaryJulia,” a iife-sized bronze and enam¬el sculpture of a pathetically skinny,faceless, deformed woman. In an¬other corner Daisy Youngblood’sclay heads with human hair are ex¬tremely eerie. They are sad figures,almost too real and at the same timetoo hollow; they are voodoo-like.There are also images of power.Robert Longo’s, “The Wrestlers.” ablack, shiny relief of two bodiesstruggling against each other, forcesit way into our space. Similarly, TomOtterness’ “Male Worker” bulgesout and portrays a massive brutestrength, though not without irony:notice the cartoon-like smile acrossthe worker’s face.There are also playful images.Joel Shaprio’s bronze stick figureappears as a funky, robot-likedancer caught in the midst of a stac¬cato swing.

Scott Fitzgerald, represented at thetop of page 10 in our last issue jy Pfaff reclining, one on a struc¬ture which suggests a lounge chair,the other beside it on the floor.The piece which strikes me as themost didactic, especially by its in-clussion in this show, is William Cro-zier’s “Aching.” On a large bronzerectangle, an amorphous ripple ofmaterial suggests the image of agod-like being, from which theimage of a naked woman emerges.She lies on her back, legs spread.Above them the fully emerged fig¬ure of an also naked man appears,caught with an expression of painand anxiety as he springs forth. Thepiece clearly refers to the Creation,as well as sexuality, and in its simul¬taneous depiction of the two it sug¬gests but does not elucidate theirconnection. A reviewer in the Jan¬uary issue of Arts Magazine writes:“The relationship between sexualimpotence and artistic impotencehinted at here is at best titillating,as Crozier’s sculpture is merely in¬dicative of the fashion for figurationand current fascination with the psy¬chological experience and touch ofthe artist.”This overshadowing of the aes¬thetic experience with a self-ab¬sorbed examination of the act ofcreating tends to plague the exhibit.Much of the work in the show, how¬ever, is worth meeting on its ownterms outside of the context of theexhibit, if that is possible..."AndGod saw everything that he hadmade, and behold it was very good.And the evening and the morningwere the sixth day.” Through 15June at the Renaissance SocietyBergman Gallery, 4th floor Cobb.Tue-Sat, 10-4; Sun, noon-4.962-8670.

One might equallysay that the work is an attempt toclose off the better to disclose](‘Beware’) -Buren is not attempting to produce a workwith zero meaning as an end in itself butas a method, a way of talking about thingsexternal to the work: painting, art histo¬ry, and the space in which the work ap¬pears — in which it becomes ‘art’. Previousattempts at producing works without ob-jecthood or hallowedness proceeded as ifthe work could stand on its own, as if onlythe factors internal to the work were atissue. Museums and galleries presentthemselves as neutral/objective in rela¬tion to particular works, and as education¬al repositories of ‘our’ culture. Buren haspublished analyses of the studio (October#10) and of the museum/gallery (Studio In¬ternational, 9/73) which delineate withtheoretical rigor the roles that thesespaces play in structuring the way the artthey ‘contain’ is seen.Buren.’s paintings themselves bring outmany of the ideologically concealed ques¬tions and contradictions discussed in thesearticles A number of works have .playedwith the way the proposition’ appearsdiffere" > and outside of the muse¬um, in order to expose the effect of theseen with--e more interesting works of. ■ 's Please 'which was a* me Ad Institute in 1981-.

But by not being stationary,by-rushing by like film, “Watch the DodrsPlease’’ showed the paintings inside to beold, stationary, and objects. One couldn’tstare for hours at the work, one could onlysee it as the train passed by. The workthus defeated the usual practice of lookingat the ‘anxious object’, staring until wecan ‘figure it out' — ie. assimilate it.In contrast to the Art Institute piece,Buren’s “Intersecting Axes: A Work inSitu’’ at the Renaissance Society was in¬visible from outside the gallery, and any¬thing but elusive from within it. This is ap¬propriate to the place of the RenaissanceSociety. The gallery has no exterior, in thesense that The Art Institute or even theRandolph Street Gallery has an exteri-or;there is no entrance. As the galleryspace doesn’t present itself as a wholeoutside the space, likewise the work was‘contained’ within it.‘Contained’ is used in quotes, for thework was not as much in the gallery as itrestructured it through an elaboration ofthe way the existing architecture is al¬ready organized. For instance, as there isno ‘entrance’, Buren constructed a new en¬trance, small and recessed into the galleryspace. „ ■When I think of this work as opposed toothers of Buren I have read about, or seenreproductions of, I am most struck by thelarge amount of material, of the size ofthe work, in relation to the space.Whereas often the stripes fill a horizontalrectangular space of some large wall/ob¬ject, here they were full walls — justshorter than the height of the implied butabsent ceiling at the top of the movablegallery partition walls. They take on thesoace in its own, full scale, rather thanmaintain the usual, socially constructedscale of paintings to walls which framei^Stftv’-lfhey are not encompassed by thewall space — they stand separately but inThe scale of the work is overwhelming tospace to begin with. Buren has decreased ’1 e:increases the perceived scale of the work,of the view by the walls. Buren raises Ellis Ave looking like, well, Ellis Ave. Thecontrast between inside and outside isheightened both by the feeling of beingsurrounded by art and by the uniformityof that art. The uniformity makes the out¬side look more interesting than usual,which again underlines the removed placeof the gallery.The piece was experiencable as ‘aes¬thetic’. I sat in the space late one Saturdayafternoon when the sun was strong in thewest. The ordinarily flat white and orangestripes were translucent and looked lumin¬escent and beautiful. At the same timethere was clearly nothing magical aboutthis. The effect may be 'as-it-were-inten-tional’ on the part of the artist, but I amlikely neither to mystify his creativepower (‘Buren’s genius’) nor objectify thework (‘its timeless mystery ) because ofit.In a certain way Buren's work is actuallyengaged in an ideological battle each timeit appears. Will the work convey to itsviewers ideas about how a museum works,how the history of painting can and mustend? Will it make them conscious of the as¬sumptions they use in looking at art, andof how they came to have them? Or: Willthe museum frame construct Buren into aneccentric genius, an important/famous ar¬tist one ‘really should see’?, “At the same moment as one thus ca-moulflages the embarrassing ques¬tion iflf|uestkm$, one pays homage to thatwork which raised them — overwhelms itwith praise — in order to naturalize them.so that the work is choked to death; so that it can no longer deliver its message,its .real meaning, it ip in turn hidden beh.ndthe image of .its creator who, becomes a•genius' with all that implies in terrn^ ythe irrational and inexpressible, a myth-. to turnthe CATALYST QUESTIONS mto 'ETERNAL ■TRUTHS’; The inspired creator thus comesto overshadow his (sic) own product”(‘Standpoints’). , - -Buren claims to design for particularspaces for political reasons; in order toname and confront the framing power ofthe space; in order to avoid producing freefloating ‘self-sufficient’ objects; in order ’to have the d works be, fan interactive result of where they are- .shown (which is inevitable in any case)rather than the result of an artistic pro- -gression, biography, etc.This activity can, however, too easily beassimilated to the idea of a special artisticsensibility for the special nature of each ;place. The ‘oversensitive genius’ returns, ■Thus, for instance, Clara Glatt in the Hyde. \Park Herald writes: “For the work of the ;Renaissance Society, Buren admits he hadsomething else in mind before he arrivedin Chicago. But apparently, his creativitydoes not crystalize until he reaches hissite.” ( 4/20/83) Not exactly how onewould describe a builder who changed.her/his mind about what to do at a ‘site’.‘Creativity crystalizlng’ is part of the cul¬tural baggage of the artist/genius. Eccen- 1tricity is to some degree implied. This isnot to criticize the writer, but to question \the success of the work, and its ability to 4make its statement independently ofBuren’s writings.In ‘Beware’, Buren says, ‘If it is possibleto imagine a constant relationship be- ftween the container (location) and the con¬tents (the total proposition), this relation- ;ship is always annulled or reinvoked bythe next presentation.’’ There is a gaphere which is used to assimilate the work 'into the dominant conceptions of art. The .'installation can be seen as the answer to rthe problem of the specific site. The Ren¬aissance Society installation is particular-ly open to this interpretation since thework is so large, so potentially totalizing, |as a judgement of how the space is. The ■container and the contained are not easily %separable. Actually any work is only a re¬sponse among a potentially infinitenumber of possible works — since not aH §the works are principally about the siteanyway. This still leaves the aporia of f‘Buren is so creative that he can come to a |site with nothing and still do something fdifferent each time...’ " ^ fIn the catalogue essay, Anne Rorimer.explaining how the works are both thesame and different, says, “...each piece isunique, determined in every case withspecific reference to its allotted context. ' TomVanEnd©TomVanEnde3, This is correct but the word ‘unique’ is al-d ready too loaded in the context of art crit-a icism to Keep the correct meaning in place.)f it again threatens to turn into ‘Buren ish such a great genius he can produce nu-n merous unique objects out of the smallestL vocabulary’ — and then the project iss lost.” Again, this is not the author's ‘fault’.The vocabulary for describing, or thinkingir about, art and artists is always alreadyo ideologically pre- and over-constructed.>f ‘Unique’ as part of this language movese back and forth between ‘fact’ and ‘value’;sr its meaning will not be singular or neutral,e Similarly in the same essay: “The radicale decision to reduce the elements of his work3) to vertical stripes has played a major role)- in enabling Buren to redefine, and thus ex¬pand, the previous parameters of art.’’e This could correctly (that is, according toc Buren) mean that if the bourgeois notionh of painters and painting came to an end, a>. whole other kind of art could come intoe being. It can also mean that because Burene has done things which have never been artd before, he, like any great artist, has ex-d panded our notion of what can be done iny art _ less is still more. This is obviously ans assimilation of Buren into the tradition,e | am sure similar ideological problemsd exist in this review as well, and I will evenprovide one here, because I think hereinI- lies one of the limits of Buren’s work — ori- better, an indication of what it is ups against. Buren in the article the ‘Functionn of the Museum’ (Artforum 9/73) identifieso a “flattening effect” by which all of an ar-if tist's work is given more value as it is seen as a whole, as the work of a great artist.This works on Buren as well. (This is thepolitically incorrect part:) For example, Idon’t think “Intersecting Axes’’is as ‘in¬spired’, ‘clever’ — as productive in mean¬ing — as “Watch the Doors Please” orsome of his other installations. But I do seeit as part of the same project, as inter¬playing with the same texts of Buren, andI thus consciously think of this instance in amore favorable light, because I alreadythink, ‘Buren is a great artist, he is bring¬ing about the end of painting...’ This is theother side of each work being unique. It ispart of the same conception of art.A work which refuses construction inter¬nally and externally, still cannot avoidconstruction on the cultural level. There isno revolution in one artist because that ar¬tist is still thought in opposition to otherartists — this is how Daniel Buren becomes‘Daniel Buren’ — and the artist’s work isstill thought in opposition to other works.'Daniel Buren’ is not ‘Ken Josephson’, isnot ‘Suzanne Lacy’, is not ‘Art Police’, isnot ‘Jeff Wall’, etc. and ‘Works in Situ’ isnot a Mona Lisa, ‘The Dinner Party’, the‘Black Sphere’, etc. Both art and artist areconstructed by and from these differencesin cultural categories which are the lan¬guage for thinking about art, and onlypart of the hegemonic system in place.The contradictions in that hegemonicsystem which Buren’s work, and that ofothers, points out can only be pressed until wthe current order (in process of course) =adapts or collapses. Since, as Buren well 2knows, (for this is exactly his point), the >categories of art are not free floating, but <3 are interconnected in a mutually sustain¬ing way with other bourgeois categories— of the individual, the author, how valueaccrues to objects, genius, progress, etc. —the reassertion of the hegemonic is muchmore likely than an overturning of thebourgeois notions of art. At the same timethese interconnections are precisely whatgives Buren’s project its theoretical basisand its political importance. I think thezero degree he aims for is itself a construc¬tion, an impossible, and therefore utopianRenaissance Society, April 7 aim. I think it is debatable whether thisway of proceeding is more useful than astrategy which incorporates explicit polit¬ical criticism into the art works themselves(eg. Hans Haacke). Certainly, whetherBuren can succeed in his larger aims, theparticular criticisms, contradictions, andinsights which his work has brought outhave been the right questions at the righttimes. This is, as he says, the point: toraise questions, not to presume to answerthem.Wide White Spec# Gallery, Antwerp, 1969: insideTHE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1983—5Michelle Citron is a feminist film¬maker/Northwestern faculty memberwhose most recent film, What You Take ForGranted, premiered at the Art Institutelast week. Her award-winning film, Daugh¬ter Rite, will be shown in Doc’s “Woman asDirector” series Monday, May 30 and shewill talk after the film. The following inter¬view was conducted by Abby Scher andDavid Miller.AS: How did you get into films? Did youface any discrimination as a woman? Didyou feel alienated, that sort of thing?MC: I have a doctorate in Psychology — incognition and perception — and the ex¬perimentation I did used as stimuli audio¬visual stuff. My advisor told me to take afilm course, so I could make better stimuli,and I took this film course and it changedmy life. I decided to be a filmmaker, but Iwas so close to getting my doctorate that Istayed in Psychology, but then I just start¬ed working on films by myself. Have I haddiscrimination? Yeah, but when I was ingraduate school I was the only woman infilm production. There was a woman whocame after me, about a year and a halflater. Nobody ever prevented me frombeing in production or anything. The dis¬crimination was much more subtle — filmproduction is very macho. The men who gointo it are very macho. They would sitaround and tell really dirty jokes withwomen as the butt of them, and totally ig¬nore me. So I was put*in a position of eitherbecoming like a man and acting like a manor being an outsider.That’s a position most women who are innon-traditional working-class jobs experi¬ence. Filmmaking isn’t working class butit's that same kind of attitude. I had threejobs, and in all three jobs I was the firstwoman ever hired in the departments, andso it was clear that I came out just at a timewhen universities were getting a lot ofpressure to hire women. So in that sense,I’ve always been a token woman, as afilmmaker and as an actor and as some¬body teaching film in a university. AndI’ve always gotten — I wouldn’t say a lotof mileage out if it — I mean I have, but notdeliberately. I don’t think that I’ve beendiscriminated against in any overt kind ofway. People have always liked to have mearound because it sort of publicly provedthat they weren't discriminatory.AS: Right.MC: But that means that they like onewoman around, they don’t want two orthree or four women around.DM: Do you call what you do feminist cin¬ema?MC: Yeah...I do. On the other hand...well, Ido, OK? And I do because I tend to makefilms that center around women: centeraround women characters, center aroundissues that are of concern for women atthis point in history. On the other hand Isort of resent it when people say thatthese films are only about women andtherefore we don’t have to pay any atten¬tion to them. They’re in fact about a lot ofother things and my films have a whole lotto do with current issues in film theory. Interms of contemporary film theory, femin¬ist film theory has been at the vanguardover the past ten years and they’re theones who have really emphasized semio¬tics and psychonalysis. So, in a sense, theintellectual film community sees my filmsas feminist, but also understands how theyhave much broader implications. But inother areas my films are sometimes seenas just about women and they’re not justabout women.DM: Could you call them art films as easilyas you could call them feminist films, for in¬stance?MC: Yeah, you’re right; but the avant-garde film community, I think, is incrediblysexist in this way, and the art communityas well. And I also don’t think that theavant-garde filmmakers have that muchconnection in reality with people who aredoing film theory. The whole film area is sofragmented — much more than people areaware of. You have film production andfilm theory, then you have mainstreamfilm, documentary film and avant-gardefilm. People who are doing film theorystudy a lot of mainstream film and avant-garde film but that doesn’t mean theyhave any connection with the people whoare producing avant-garde film. And thepeople who show avant-garde film may ormay not have any connection with the peo- AGAINST TRADITIONMICHELLE CITRONpie studying film theory; it varies fromplace to place.DM: How do your knowledge of theory andyour actual filmmaking work with oragainst one another to make things dif¬ferent than they would be if you were sim¬ply a teacher or a filmmaker?MC: They just inform each other. Mytheory informs my film production and thefact that I make films, I think, gives me awhole perspective on theory that academ¬ics don’t have. They tend to not under¬stand the problems or processes of howone conceptualizes and creates a film.DM: Your films are all narrative films, isthat right?MC: Sort of.AS: But you intersperse documentary ma¬terial into it, at least in Daughter Rite.MC: And also experimental stuff.AS: So what’s the juxtaposition be¬tween...MC: Oh, there's this whole notion that hasto do with the hierarchy of film form. Peo¬ple who do any kind of film studies tend tofocus on either narrative, documentary, orexperimental. And people who make polit¬ical films are the same way. They reallybelieve that the only politically correctfilm is a documentary. So I am trying to de¬liberately make films that blur all the dis¬tinctions and at the time say that they’repolitical. And it makes people very angry.Also people who make documentary filmstend to think that there's this kind of puri¬ty, of truth or something — they tend to bethe most angry.AS: So you’re criticizing the objectivity ofdocumentary?MC: Oh yes. But I’m not criticizing the im¬portance of documentary because I thinkthere are things you can say with a docu¬mentary film that you can’t say with a nar¬rative or experimental, and vice versa.But I think it’s naive to assume that some¬how it's more truthful than other kinds offilms.DM: Or more uplifting.MC: Yes, all those value judgments.AS: So how does that connect to your fe¬minism, this subjectivity of content.MC: Well there's a very concrete way.When women started making films in1968-70, in the United States, they madedocumentaries in reaction to what theyperceived as unreal women on the screen,which were Hollywood films. They tried tomake films that spoke to real women’slives, and I think that they were some¬what naive in using exclusively documen¬tary film. What was going on in Europe at ^the same time was that the feminists who =were political filmmakers, coming out of a 2very different intellectual tradition, said ^that the way to make a political film is to 3break the traditional regressive relation¬ship between the subject and the text, be¬tween the person sitting in the audienceand the film on the screen. And so they feltthat the experimental films to be madethat were political had to be avant-garde.So real specifically in terms of feminismand form, I try to make films that bridgethose two very differing opinions. I makefilms that are experimental but not inac¬cessible. Documentary films are very ac¬cessible and that’s one of their powers.Also the content of my films is so clear.Daughter Rite’s about mothers and daugh¬ters. Women in the family, sisters. WhatYou Take For Granted, my new film, isabout women who work in non-traditionaljobs and the issues of being an outsider ina social situation.DM: Worse than being an outsider, it’smore like being “other”.MC: Yeah, clearly being “other.” It’s alsoabout the difference between working-class work and professional work. Otherissues that are much broader than justbeing a woman, but I get to those issues bylooking at women.DM: When you mention working-class asopposed to other sorts of jobs and sayissues raised by that are broader thanwomen’s issues, do you mean to say youwould identify say, marxism as a more im¬portant revolutionary philosophy than fe¬minism?MC: No! But I believe in contradiction andcomplexity. I don’t think that marxism cando it without feminism and I sure don’tthink feminism can do it without marx¬ism.DM: Why decide which one’s more impor¬tant? You can have them both.MC: You can’t decide. In my new film I deli¬ berately try to have women who werewhite and black and working class andprofessional and straight and gay andyounger and older and mothers and single— to say that every single social revolu¬tion is intertwined, and you can’t separatethem out.AS: Is there a conscious attempt to departfrom the conventions of films by men?MC: Yes, in a lot of ways. One that's realobvious: with Daughter Rite and withWhat You Take For Granted I deliberatelymade two films where the only charactersare women, even though they talk aboutmen. So anybody who’s watching, the onlyway they can enter into the film is by iden¬tifying with the women. When women inthis culture go to films they’re forced intothe position either of identifying with amale character or with a female characterwho gets raped and murdered, is stupid,or something like that.DM: There to serve male ends.MC: Right. So that I’m putting men in a po¬sition that most women are in almost ex¬clusively when they go to films. But, I seemyself as making political films and I thinkthat there are women who make films thatare just as non-progressive as films thatmen make, and I think that there are menthat make political films that I think aregood and are really important, some ofwhich have to do with issues about women,some of which don’t. It’s broader than menand women. AS: What about the new teen movies? The“big thing” about the new ones is thatthey are directed by women, so that some¬how they’re different, or...MC: Well, they might be, I haven’t seenValley Girls yet, and that’s directed by awoman who made a lot of feminist films —a film about rape called Not a Pretty Pic¬ture. And so I’m curious; yes, the problemwith Hollywood is that it’s an institutionand you have no controls when you go inthere as a director. So it’s naive for awoman to think that even if she has goodpolitics she’s going to be able to make aHollywood-backed film and do what shewants to do. Some women who see them¬selves as political make a decision that it’sbetter for them to work within the systemand take whatever power they can get,even though it’s limited, because whatthey can do will get seen by a mass audi¬ence. And others don’t want to get in¬volved in that system at all, because theywould prefer to have as much control aspossible even if it means that they get to alimited audience. I don’t think there is aneasy answer — that one way is better thanthe other.AS: What about just the technical aspectsof making the films. Are there things thatyou would do differently from what youperceive to be the typical male direction?MC: I only know that I work mainly with anall-woman crew, and the women whocrewed on my last film for instance are6—FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1983—THE GREY CITY JOURNALwomen who worked in the industry — onunion jobs in Hollywood, as assistant direc¬tors or gaffers — and so they’re usuallythe only woman on the set. They tell methat it's real different, and that’s true of afriend of mine who’s just shot a feature inEngland using an all-woman crew. Sheused all these big name actors and thewomen actors came up to her afterwardsand said “I’ve never worked on a set likethis before.” I think there has to be a hier¬archy to some extent unless the wholecrew’s worked together for a long time,but I think that women directors who’reconsistently trying to work differentlyhave a much more relaxed atmosphere.The people in my crew talked back to me alot: I don’t mean that in a negative way.They would say that they didn’t like some¬thing I wanted. They gave a lot of inputand I really listened to them. Also therewasn’t the traditional separation betweenthe tech crew and the director and cinema¬tographer. They usually don’t socialize atall.AS: What about what you do with the cam¬era? Do you think that you tend to avoidcertain camera distortions...like in JeanneDielman, the big thing was the stationarycamera?MC: Well, I think I try very hard to shoot ina non-voyeu'istic way. In my new filmthere’s a woman in a bathtub shaving herlegs, and I very consciously tried to shootit so that it wasn’t voyeuristic. I mean, allfilm is voyeuristic, but the woman wasn’tthe sexual object of the screen. But youknow, Chantal Ackerman is five feet tall,I’m 5’1”. I’m going to put the camera in adifferent place than a director who’s sixfeet tall. And I think women probably doperceive differently than men: it’s cultur¬al, but I do think men and women exist indifferent cultures. I don’t know how youcould possibly quantify it.DM: John Ford, wasn’t he ten feet tall?MC: (laughter) No, we only think that.DM: Oh, you're telling me it’s not true? I’mshattered, (laughter)AS: Do you think not going to film schoolmade a difference?MC: I thought it was great. I think it’s bet¬ter no matter what you do in your life tocome to it with a fresh perspective. I dis¬agree with having a narrow focus from thetime you're ten years old. I believe in a lib¬eral arts education actually (laughter) I’mglad that I was trained as a scientist. Oneof the main ways that this has influencedme is that I don’t believe there is any suchthing as objectivity. I mean there isn’t. Sci¬entists think that they have the corner onit, and artists think that they have acorner on it. And because I started in onearea and moved to another, I don’t thinkit’s true.AS: Do people every call your fiims femin¬ist propaganda?MC: No, nobody would say that. I mean,the characters are complex, they’re notperfect. In Daughter Rite, by the end of thefilm you realize that the two charactersthe film has focussed on all along are veryhypocritical. It’s not like I have these filmswhere I have perfect women and terriblemen. People have accused me of makingfilms that are hostile to men. They're not infact. But I think they say that becausethere are no men in the films. A lot of timespeople feel uncomfortable with that anddon’t consciously understand why. But no,nobody's ever accused me of making pro¬paganda. Awful films, boring films, poorlymade films, but never propaganda(laughter).AS: What do you feel is the relationship be¬tween political value and entertainmentvalue?MC: Well, this culture divides everythingYou know, male/female, popular cul¬ture/high art, entertaining/avant gardefilm. And I just think they’re false dicho¬tomies.AS: Do you think it’s harder to get moneyand be distributed as a woman?MC: I think it’s harder in general forwomen. And for blacks. And for anybodywho is politically identifiable. I think it’ssubtle. You know, decisions are made bypanels. I have sat on a lot of panels, likeNEA or the Illinois Arts Council. If a panelconsists of three white men and they see afilm that is coming out of black culture andis a different style and a different form,they don’t understand that film. They maynot give the film money because they don’tunderstand the value of the film, the con¬ text into which the film fits. A lot of dis¬crimination that goes on is in terms of li¬mited perspectives.AS: You were talking before of the repre¬sentation of women in the classic genres.There is a good woman and a bad woman,the two dimensional woman...MC: ...the mother and the whore...theangel and the whore.AS: And somehow the men are more devel¬oped.MC: Yes.AS: So even if men are offstage in yourfilms, do you think that develops awoman’s perspective on a man What is a“woman's perspective”? It’s so diverse.MC: Yeah. I can only answer by sayingthat when I make my films I have a veryspecific point of view. So that for instancein Daughter Rite the mother (the archety¬pal mother) has no voice in the film. It’s to¬tally from the perspective of the daugh¬ter. And the references to the men are alsofrom the perspective of these women char¬acters.On the other hand there is another sideto it that is not articulated in the film. Inmy new film, all these women are talkingabout what it means to be, I’ll use yourterm, “other”. There are six women withsix very different perspectives. On theother hand, you never hear the male sideof it. But there are enough contradictionsin the film that the male side of it is ack¬nowledged in some way. I mean, I can’tclaim to know anything other than my ownperspective.AS: Do you think that a lot of the avantgarde, or people who manipulate genres,leave women’s roles unexamined in theirmanipulation. Like you talked about thesexism...MC: I think that men...I think we tend tomake films from where we stand in the cul¬ture. And men are going to make filmsfrom where they stand in the culture.When women start making films, to a largeextend that’s going to shift.AS: What about the effect class back¬ground has on films?MC: The fact that most of the filmmakers inHollywood come from the middleclass...look at Steven Spielberg, I can’tpossibly relate to his films. I come from aworking class family. It's nothing like that.His films to me are all about the recon¬struction of the nuclear family, becausethey start out with the family falling apartand by the end everyone is sort of putback happily together again. Whateverfeeds into you is going to create that. AndI'm Jewish, so I might have more in com¬mon with someone who is working classJewish than I would with a woman whocame from a WASP upper class back¬ground.AS: Do you feel an obligation to teach a fe¬minist theory course?MC: No, I want to teach...Well, yes, I felt anobligation. But I’m not the only one whodoes it. The advanced film theory classspends a lot of time on feminist film theorybecause it’s central. But I teach it in such away that non-majors can take it. So I see itas a service course to the whole universitycommunity.AS: You don’t feel threatened teaching itat your film school? Oh, you have aWomen’s Studies department.MC: Well, I don’t actually want this in. Oh, Ihave tenure now, they can’t do anything.Actually the University hates Women’sStudies. I’m in the School of Speech, notArts and Sciences where Women’s Studiesis. I know they are having a hard time. Ionce was sitting in the faculty dining roomwith this other woman and there was atable of ten men sitting next to us. It wasthe most derisive hostile expression oftheir attitude towards Women's Studies. Iwas appalled. And they had no idea whowe were. They were talking about “thosebitches” and “cunts” and “who do theythink they are.” It was just awful...So Ithink it is really an uphill battle. The Uni¬versity as a whole is not supportive insome ways. On the other hand, I have beentotally supported in the film department.When I got hired they knew what my back¬ground was. I said I wanted to teach a fe¬minist course, they said great. The peoplein the department are not threatened.They really made an attempt to create afaculty that was eclectic, instead of feelingthat the only way to feel safe was by clon¬ing themselves and having people whoagree with them.

Like its predeces¬sors, “Black Sphere’’ was soon vanda¬ lized: it was rolled into Ellis Avenue on atleast one occasion in the spring of 1980and its cover of black concrete wascracked.The sphere also attracted a lot of other,less vicious attention: a “smiley face” anda figure “8” appeared on its surface earlyon, though not in paint; and the MedicalCenter newsletter, Tablet, published aphoto of it above the caption “What is thisthing?” in April, 1980. If one mark of suc¬cessful public sculpture is the attraction ofpublic attention, “Black Sphere” seems to have enjoyed a measure of initial suc¬cess.The present neutralization of the spherewas brought about by a combination oftwo things. First, the plan for the Ellis Ave¬nue entrance to the SBRI — the centralbrick plaza, surrounding landscaping, andthe relocation of another sculpture, the“Grande Disc”, to its current position nearthe plaza’s center — had been made bythe University and approved by the citybefore the “Black Sphere” was scheduledto leave, even though none of theseVANDALISM WITH AN INSTITUTIONAL FACESeptember 9, 1982 June 1981: Naked SphereJune 1981: Sphere In silver period 55>3May 19.1989: Notr Bell on EMta1976: “Black Sphere” at Holly Solomon Gallery, New York June 1981: Naked, upside down, Inside out changes were really started until the sum¬mer of 1981. This would not have mat¬tered for the sphere if it had been re¬moved from campus and returned to NewYork at the end of August, 1980, as origi¬nally planned. But it was not; instead, itwas privately purchased and donated tothe University.Details of this last are obscure, but if theUniversity exhibited wisdom in acceptingand possibly arranging the gift, it exhibit¬ed ignorance in its decision to keep thesphere in front of the SBRI without modi¬fying the plan for the plaza. While thetemporary exhibition had been reviewedby the campus art committee and by thepresident, the former at least never got achance to review its permanent installa¬tion. (The not insignificant participantwith whom I spoke called this a “mix-up”.)Thus it ‘happened’ that this superb pieceof minimalist sculpture had, until quite re¬cently (5/4?/83), ivy growing at its base.Since it’s gone, dwelling on the ivy mayseem like beating a dead horse. But reallythe ivy is the best clue to the sensibilityinforming the current installation. Whileminimalism dispenses with decorative de¬tail, ivy adds it. This may be fine for build¬ings like Cochrane-Woods, or even Pick orthe SBRI, where expanses of undifferen¬tiated material are made more variousand less uninteresting by the addition of asecond tone, shape, and texture; addition¬ally, the neo-gothic (modern gothic?) struc¬tures have to get along with the gothicones somehow, and ivy helps. But the ex¬tension of this practice to the “BlackSphere” fails because its surface is not anexpanse, so it does not need internal dif¬ferentiation to begin with; further, itsshape, scale, color, and texture are essen¬tial to its presence, and ivy obscures all ofthese.The same is true to a lesser extent of itspresent installation near the top of themound it occupies. What matters is notonly its spherical shape, as seen from adistance, but also and just as importantlythe small departures from ‘perfect’sphericity, as seen close up. The curvingground of the current installation detractsfrom the former and thus from the latter;the slope is too close in scale to the spherenot to alter one's perception of thesphere’s shape.The sphere’s quiet power is constrainedalso by the juxtaposition of the nearbysidewalk with the grass mound and by thesmall tree to the sphere’s southwest. Whatspeaks under the best of circumstanceswith a good measure of understatement isthus pushed aside, silenced. As an addedirony, consider the great expense that hasbeen taken to return the sphere's originalintegrity: almost certainly as a part of thegift, the sculpture was entirely stripped ofits original, damaged cover and resur¬faced. Everything now visible is new, sinceJune, 1981. Presumably it is securely an¬chored as well.A preferable installation, in addition tothe absence of ivy, would either give thesculpture more room if it were on a rollingground, or, if the space were as small asthe current SBRI location, would place thepiece on a visibly flat, open surface. Grasswould be alright, as would a light-coloredpavement, as long as any lines in its sur¬face were regular and in accordance withthe scale of the sphere. If these simple butapparently obscure conditions were metmore of us might share the sentiments of awriter in the September, 1979 Artforum:To me there is something friendlyand familiar about the sphere...oneis easily attracted to it. The ball maynot sound very lovable, and it wouldtake four or five people to hug it,but there is something homey aboutit; it is a version of Earth that we cancomprehend.We have, in the meantime, a sphere on aknoll surrounded by a collar of earthwhere ivy once grew. Let the Plant De¬partment replace the soil with sod; untilthe sphere is reinstalled on a flat surfaceor moved, one is inclined to remember theivy as a testament or a level of institution¬al stupidity that makes Student Activities’annual installation of a perfectly stupidobject — an artificial Christmas tree — in aKerfectly suitable location — Ida NoyesHall — seem by comparison like a Picassoin the Louvre. —David Miller8—FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1983—THE GREY CITY JOURNALf ' ■“ ■ „Dr. Kurt RosenbaumOptometrist(53 Kimbark Plaza)1200 E. 53rd St.493-8372Intelligent people know thedifference between advertisedcheap glasses or contact lensesand competent professional• service with quality material.Beware of bait advertising.Eye ExaminationsFashion Eye WearContact Lenses THE FLAMINGO APARTMENTS5SOO South Shore DriveSTUDIOS & ONE BEDROOMS•Unfurnished and furnished•U. of C.

Illinois is currently the only statewithout a freedom of information act. Mis¬sissippi, the 49th state to enact such legisla¬tion, passed a similar act this year.According to Currie’s aide Forbes Shep¬herd, Currie’s bill would require state andlocal governments in Illinois to make avail¬able to the public all published documents.The bill would ensure that any citizen orrepresentative from the press could requesta copy of a state document, and receive itwithin seven to 14 days. Certain confidentialdocuments, such as state personnel records,or security plans at correctional institu¬tions, would be exempt from Currie’s bill.State Senator Terry Bruce (D-Olney), hasintroduced a similar bill in the Illinois State among the new IHC members. We want tocentralize the issues.” Aronson noted thatthe majority of IHC members who voted todisband the IHC have continued to partici¬pate with more enthusiasm while many ofthose members who voted to keep the IHCalive have since dropped out. “It’s funnyhow things work out,” he said.Those interested in seeing a Roundtableformed should speak to the IHC representa¬tives in their respective houses.Senate. According to Shepherd, both Cur¬rie’s and Bruce’s bills have been amendedto accomplish the same goals, with much ofthe language from Currie’s bill being incor¬porated into Bruce’s bill. Shepherd said thatCurrie’s bill received the approval of theMunicipal League this week. However,Shepherd added that several local officialsthroughout the state are fighting Currie’sbill, and it faces a “tough” fight before theIllinois House of Representatives.Commenting on the necessity of the bill,Shepherd said that the bill would “regular¬ize” procedure which each individualagency dictates for itself, by creating a uni¬versal policy concerning access to statedocuments. Shepherd compared a freedomof information act to American values suchas “apple pie and motherhood, ” adding that“each citizen should have access to docu¬ments which governments produce.” By Koyin ShihThe recent avertion to disband the Inter-House Council (IHC) has resulted in a sud¬den renewed interest in the group. This sud¬den interest in the IHC is a direct reflectionof the enthusiasm displayed by the newlyelected IHC members for next year.John Vail, incoming IHC president said,“the new IHC leaders share the same phi¬losophy. IHC is undergoing radical reform.We have the confidence of many, includingPresident Gray. We are going throughstructural changes.”In the past, IHC had been thought of as asuperfluous organization. The poor status ofIHC among students and the general discon¬tent among IHC members precipitated themotion to disband IHC. Although final votescast by IHC members narrowly ruledagainst disbandment, the whole issue radi¬cally changed IHC members' attitudes. Anew administration was elected along withthe surge of increased activity.Michael Aronson, IHC vice-president,said, “IHC hasn’t done anything in the past,but it’s going to change.” Bob Nesselroth isthe incoming secretary/treasurer.Already, changes are occurring. IHC hasbegun to concentrate on issues dealing withstudent life and student housing. Vail saidthat a re-formed constitution committeecleared up matters concerning attendancepolicies. “There is less emphasis on councilUS edgeContinued from page oneIn terms of industrial support for universi¬ty research grants, the report urges busi¬ness leaders to take a look at their long-termgoals before they plan grants. The commit¬tee believes that such a long-term outlookwould lead to an increase in grants for basicresearch which should pay off in the longrun. The report also suggests that businessshould make “greater use of academiciansas consultants.”According to the committee, the key areafor university-business interaction should work and more emphasis on committeework. We are implementing year-long rep¬resentatives from each house” as opposedto the past quarterly-voted representatives.“Officers will be elected in the spring forthe following school year. We are lookingfor dedicated people interested in Housingissues,” said Vail.Vail said that IHC has started a HousingDisciplinary Committee to deal with the se¬quence of penalties often imposed on stu¬dents who fail to abide by House rules. If astudent is forced to move out of or within theHousing system, he or she can appeal to anAppellate Board composed of three studentsand three Resident Heads not coming fromthe same house as the appealing student.The IHC may work with the AppellateCourts. Also, the IHC will send out surveysto students who have appealed to find outhow they were treated.A major addition to IHC is the organiza¬tion of the Provisional Allocations Commit¬tee (PAC) to dole out activity subsidies forinter-House events. PAC is a prototype of apossible future “Roundtable” which willdistribute money to fund inter-House acti-vites on a much larger scale than PAC. Cur¬rently PAC is comprised of IHC members,one from each dorm complex. If plans forRoundtable are implemented, the IHC vice-president will chair the Roundtable.be in developing “methods of acceleratingcommercialization (of scientific discover¬ies), including the creation of new institu¬tions and forms of cooperative relation¬ships.” The committee sees an especialneed for more “collaborative problem-oriented research.”Bruce Huguelet at Argonne said that thelaboratory is “trying to strengthen its ties toindustry.” In addition to contracted re¬search, the laboratory also assists in givingindustrial researchers a new perspective onresearch Huguelet said. The laboratory iscurrently trying to develop programs for in¬dustry for long-term research. “We don'tseem to have a common mold” for researchat Argonne, Huguelet said.Currie wants record accessBEFORE YOU LEAVE, MAKE SURE YOU CAN GETWHERE YOU’RE GOING WITH A QUICK CHECK-UPAT RUBY CHEVROLET/VOLKSWAGEN!GW QUALITYsaves MATSgpnnAi laoTocs vkbts divtsipnCHEVROLET/VOLKSWAGEN7234 STONY ISLAND • 684-0400PRESENT THIS COUPON AND YOURSTUDENT OR FACULTY I.D.

The suit filed by the Justice Depart¬ment charged the Park District with racialdiscrimination in funds allocation, notingthat 65 percent of capital improvements ex¬penditures were made in white neighbor¬hoods, and only 35 percent in minorityneighborhoods.Jackson Park’s athletic fields are the toppriority for athletic field renovation.$130,000 has been budgeted for the projects,and personnel man-hours for recreationalprograms are to be increased from 184 to201.Washington Park’s athletic fields arethird in priority for renovation. Its field-house is sixth on a list of 21 to be renovated,with $15,640 scheduled in improvements forit. The children’s playground there is alsoscheduled for improvement.The decree will not be implemented untila 30-day public review period has passed, during which citizens may voice their objec¬tions to the plan, through public hearings ifnecessary, and the parties in the suit mayrespond to the objections. Copies of the de¬cree are available at several locationsthroughout the city, including the Washing¬ton Park fieldhouse at 5331 S. King Dr., ParkDistrict Headquarters at 425 E.

It was the last goal of the seasonscored against the Rats.Borborygmi maintained its lead until justbefore the half, when Rats center forwardLinda Kinney fooled the opposing goaliewith a crossing shot from fifteen feet out.Kinney handles the ball well, and has anability to pick the highest possible percent¬age shot with amazing accuracy.Rats midfielder Diana Kaspic, however,is the team’s offensive playmaker. Her ef¬forts in the second half were directly re¬sponsible for the scoring explosion thatcrushed Borborygmi.In the space of a minute and seven sec¬onds, Kaspic fed Kinney, left wing GretchenGates, and right wing Wendy Pietrzak forone goal apiece. Gates’ second goal with five minutes remaining was icing on the"cake, making the final score 5-1.Worth mentioning is the consistent excel¬lence of Borborygmi’s Krista Graven in amidfield-fullback position. Graven has beeninvaluable throughout the season, and is onefundamental reason for the team’s overallsuccess.The championship game against LowerFlint proved less of a contest than the inde¬pendent final. Flint was unable to generateany offense, because of a lack of ball-han¬dling and passing skills.The Rats’ Kinney fared well against theaggressive Flint defense, (scoring two goalsin the first half) but Kaspic was heavilymarked and was less effective than usual.Kaspic took the brunt of several head-oncollisions with Flint midfielders.Flint fullback Vivian Derechin was large¬ly responsible for shutting Kaspic down.Derechin tended to play too far downfield,however, leaving Flint goalie Sandy Spidelrelatively unprotected. Spidel, though cer¬tainly one of the better women’s goalies,had trouble against Kinney and the rest ofthe potent Rats offense due to this lack ofdefensive protection. More than half of thegoals scored on Spidel were the result of aone-on-one confrontations that the defenseshould have prevented.The final score was 6-0.Mildred will meet the Sandi Union Move¬ment in the men’s All-University champion¬ship Monday at 4:30 p.m.Chicago White Sox scheduleThe Chicago White Sox will open theirnext homestand Monday, with a three gameseries against the Boston Red Sox.

Sting opens at homeSundayThe Chicago Sting after a ten day hiatusfrom The Major Indoor Soccer League ac¬tion, opened up the outdoor season last nightin the frigid confines of the Toronto stadiumagainst the Blizzard. Stocked with ex-Stingplayers Arno Steffenhagen, Derek Spauld¬ing and Bruce Wilson, the Blizzard gave theChicago side a tough and often physicalgame. Argentinian Ricardo Alonso set upBayern refugee Hans Weiner on a give andgo for the Sting’s first goal. Playing a spec¬tacular game in goal, the Man from Mozam¬bique Victor Noguiera held the Blizzard atbay until late in the second half when GeoffWegerle volleyed in the equalizer with 20minutes left in regulation time.Deadlocked, the game went into suddendeath overtime in which the brutal Blizzardfailed to convert as the Sting defense proveinpenetrable.
