The grants,$1 million to the University and$250,000 to the University ofChicago Press, will helpstrengthen programs in the hu¬manities here.The University and thePress must raise funds tomatch the grants three to onein order to receive the grants.Therefore, the University andthe Press must raise $3 millionand $750,000 respectively. Thematching funds will comefrom private sources such asindividuals and corporations.President Hanna Gray notedthat the University has a longcommitment to fundraising for the humanities, as shown by itscompletion of a 1977 NEH chal¬lenge grant for $3.6 million.According to Gerald Fetner,the University’s Director ofFoundation Relations and De¬velopment, the 1977 grant wasthe only other challenge grantthat NEH has given the Uni¬versity specifically for the hu¬manities. But the Universityreceived two direct NEHgrants last summer, bringingto nearly $1.8 million NEH aidto the University in recentmonths. One of those grantsamounted to $261,000 for the re¬vision and publication of theUniversity’s nine-volumeWestern Civilization series asa model text and teaching basefor undergraduate studyacross the country.

Will spoke oncampus Wednesday, giving theinaugural lecture of the OlinLecture Series. The series issponsored by the John M. OlinFoundation.Professor Nathan Tarcov ofthe department of politicalscience introduced Will, sincePresident Gray, who had beenscheduled to give the introduc¬tion, could not attend. Tarcovsaid, “On my first day in theState Department, the Secre¬tary of State taught me thatwhen the President isn’taround, take charge!”Speaking to a standing-room-only crowd in the Law SchoolAuditorium, Will said that hewas going to give his own ver¬sion of the State of the Unionaddress, starting with a practi¬cal point: “We as a society areradically undertaxed.”Will cited supply side eco¬nomics as an idea that hadreached political popularitybefore it went through the fice after a “landslide” victo¬ry, which according to Will in¬dicated a “divided country; anambivalence about what theAmerican people want.”It turns out that the Ameri¬can people want what theyhave—the welfare state. Theessential problem, says Will, isthat Americans love govern¬ment support but don’t want topay for it. “America is a soci¬ety in many ways choking onlaw, but not because thecountry hates government—because they have a voraciousappetite for it.”continued on page 4George Willusual process of study andseminars.

Currently 945students are receiving finan¬cial aid through this program.The 10 percent change in sal¬ary support should amount toabout $50 per student perquarter, an amount that mustbe made up either by depart¬mental funding or by reducingthe number of hours studentswork. Having to make up suchfunding can be a considerableexpense, especially to largeemployers such as Regenstein,which will have to increase itspayroll funding nearly $6,000this quarter.The closing of the Work/Study program to anymore students this year will af¬fect only those students whofind Work/Study jobs after au¬tumn quarter. This week, sev¬eral students attempted toenter the program;Work/Study reports that it willattempt to find alternative em¬ployment for them.According to Julie Monson,director of Career and Place¬ment Services, response to thenew plan has been light.“We’ve had very little re¬sponse. perhaps because peo¬ple are still adjusting to thememo” delivered at the end ofthe previous quarter. She alsonoted that, so far, “we know ofonly one student whose job waseliminated, and we were ableto help find him other employ¬ment.”Monson hoped that therewould be no outburst over thestreamlined program andhoped that it could be adminis¬tered smoothly for the rest ofthe year, saying “I think mostemployers think that the valueof the students is so great thatthey won’t complain bitterly”when the changes are put intoeffect.Hospital benefactor Mitchell diesThe Atomic Clock:Three minutesto midnightpage sevenInsideTerror beyond wordsgcj centerspread Bernard A. Mitchell, founderof the Jovan perfume com¬pany, self-styled “natural en¬trepreneur” and benefactor ofUniversity of Chicago Hospi¬tals and Clinics (UCHC), diedhere Dec. 5 in the hospital thatbears his name. He was 71.Mitchell in 1979 donated $14.5million, one of the largest giftsin UCHC history, to help buildthe Bernard A. Mitchell Hospi¬tal. Medical Center head Don¬ald W. King said at the facili¬ty’s dedication last Octoberthat it was “built and equippedto stand among the finest ter¬tiary care facilities in theworld.”University President HannaGray said in an interview withthe Chicago Tribune that Mit¬chell “was a wonderfullywarm person of extraordinarygenerosity” and “brought opti¬mism and encouragement toall of us. His concern for otherswas overpowering.” she said “He was a good friend and Iwill miss him.”William Silberg, assistantdirector for public affairs atthe Medical Center, said Mit¬chell died of a cardiac arrest.“He had had some lung prob¬lems when he was younger,”Silberg said, “but we werenever able to nail that downspecifically.”Silberg said Mitchell hadalso donated funds for the ren¬ewal of Chicago’s Saint JosephHospital.Mitchell’s most successfulventure in a lifetime of Chica¬go business involvement wasJovan, which he started in 1968with a $100,000 investment andsold in 1979 for $85 million.A Chicago native, Mitchell in1936 founded the Mitchell Man¬ufacturing Company, invent¬ing the first fluorescent desklamp and the first hermetical¬ly sealed window air condi¬tioner He was also involved in a wig business, an organ com¬pany and Lincoln Village. Chi¬cago’s first shopping mall.UCHC officials say the newMitchell Hospital is the mostsophisticated anywhere. At thetime of its dedication, the facil¬ity was touted with banners onthe “magnificent mile” of Chi¬cago’s Michigan Ave. and withadvertisements in such publi¬cations as the Chicago LyricOpera’s concert program.One aim, a Medical Centerofficial said in October, “wasfor us to try and enrich our paymix — to replace Medicaid cli¬entele with those that posedless of a liability.” In 1981 theMedical Center absorbed anunexpected $15 million plungein Medicaid reimbursementsfor care to its primary consti¬tuency, the South Side’s poor.Mitchell is survived by hiswife Marjorie, son Lee, daugh¬ter Victoria, two grandchil¬dren and a sisterI I VI1M S< M 11 IIis commaJANUARY 16 - 22,1984KANGEIKOMonday - Friday6:45-8:00 a.m. Kangeiko, an old Samuri tradition, is a program ot intensive physical fitness trainingin Winter.

With programs at individ¬ual schools, and through the nationalorganization, the AAUS encourages thepotential of students as a force for posi¬tive change within their schools.The $5,000 Exxon grant will be usedto facilitate research currently beingconducted on university services forminority and women students; campusdrug and alcohol abuse programs; andvarious modes of student government.Results of this research will be present¬ed at the AAUS’s Sixth IntercollegiateConference to be held March 28 - April 1at the University of North Carolina atChapel Hill.The AAUS was founded in 1979 by stu¬dents from the eight Ivy Leagueschools plus the University of Chicago,the Massachusetts Institute of Techno¬logy and Stanford University. The or¬ganization’s membership has since ex¬panded to include 64 universities in theUS and Canada.

Asan example of this consensus feelingamong Republicans and Democrats,Will pointed out that none of the Demo¬cratic presidential candidates hasmade the traditional appeal for an ex¬pansion of entitlement programs. Theimplication is that the Democrats areaccepting the President’s view that ap¬petites have outrun money.Will went on to say that “if you wantto know about American government,don’t read the Constitution—read theWashington Telefund Directory, espe¬cially the part under ‘National Associa¬tion of....’” Will characterized politicsas 95 percent talk, and the Presidencyas 98 percent talk. A President’s powerdepends on his ability to persuade, andWill believes that a President’s talkmust “summon the public’s betterangels” in order to gain control of thecountry’s appetites.Will finished his talk with a shortsummary: the rhetoric needs to change so that politicians can be less“responsive” and more “responsible.”As a final note, he answered a questionabout how to improve American uni¬versities in order to train better lead¬ers: “Bring football back to Chica¬go!”Lincoln laureateFrancis J. Podbielski, a U of C biolo¬gy major, was named student laureateof the Lincoln Academy of Illinois, andwas recognized by Gov.

Theblack student population hovers around3.5% and black faculty are found in fewnumbers at a University which residesin a city that is 40% black and a nationwith a 15% black population. Chicago,which has just witnessed the election ofa black mayor, should be a fertile re¬cruiting ground for black students whoare seeking a quality undergraduateand graduate education. Yet, the Uni¬versity of Chicago goes undiscovered,while nearby institutions, i.e. North¬western, U. of I., have a much greatersuccess rate at attracting qualifiedblack students.My work with black students hasbrought me in touch with their feelingsof anger, disappointment and resent¬ment at the present situation. It is diffi¬cult living in an environment whereone’s gifts and possible contributionsare ignored or in many instances mis¬understood. The extremely high attri¬tion rate among black undergraduatesis indicative of the problem but it isalso a painful badge of honor to thosestudents who succeed in this environ¬ment.Black love is defined here as “an ap¬preciation and respect for the Afro-American presence and experience.”In contrast, the present curriculum isunique among major universities forits not having an Afro-American stu¬dies program taught by capable blackscholars and role models. A people whoare cut off from their cultural roots willexperience the same withering of spiritthat occurs in nature when trees areplucked from the rich black soil. Afri¬can-American studies serve to enrichwhite students also by helping to dimin¬ish negative stereotypes and providingsettings where dialogue can occur.Previous efforts by the administra¬tion have not brought about the desiredresults. It is a new day in Chftago and new stratagems are needed to plan ef¬fectively for the future. In the words ofDr. Martin Luther King Jr. “True com¬passion is more than flinging a coin to abeggar; it is not haphazard and super¬ficial. It comes to see that an edificewhich produces beggars needs restruc¬turing.” Concerned black studentshave been meeting in order to discuss afitting response to the present situa¬tion. A response that will lead to struc¬tures which will ensure that the needsand contributions of the black commu¬nity will have an institutional life at U.of C. We stand at a moment in Chica¬go’s life where the black and whitecommunities are struggling to live witheach other in mutuality and respect. Itis in that spirit that communitymembers are invited to the Blue Gar¬goyle on Jan. 14th at 8 pm where thememory of Dr. King will be honored.Let this be the first step to our commit¬ment to King’s dream of a belovedcommunity. In closing, the words ofsome other Chicagoans seem appro¬priate: “Does anybody really knowwhat time it is? Does anybody reallycare?”Rev. Don Matthews, Divinity SchoolCampus Minister,United Methodist FoundationGALA clarificationTo the editor:In a news brief on Tuesday, No¬vember 15 regarding the U of C Pro-Life Association’s lecture on AcquiredImmune Deficiency Syndrome, it wasstated that “the Gay and Lesbian Alli¬ance has offered to cooperate by distri¬buting AIDS literature at the event.”While it has always been one of GALA’Spriorities to raise public awareness ofAIDS and its ramifications, this “coop¬eration” is not to be construed as im¬plicit or explicit endorsement of Pro-Life’s political agenda.Irwin KellerGay and Lesbian Alliance4—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, January 6, 1984 Grading factsTo the editor:I would like to call attention to a sus¬picious discrepancy in the reports con¬cerning + /- grading. In the Nov. 7Maroon, it was stated that “based ontabulation of plusses and minuses on arandom selection of transcripts, Sinai-ko’s advisory committee found thatgrade-point averages decreased slight¬ly.” A telephone survey later foundthat the students appeared split on theissue (Nov. 18). Then, suddenly, a Nov.22 article plainly announced that “as amatter of fact,” an informal study wasdone which shows that the institution of+/- grading would neither change the overall average of an individual stu¬dent’s grades nor change the averageCollege-wide GPA very much.”Are these two separate opposing stu¬dies? If so, why haven’t we been in¬formed of the conflicting calculations?Or has someone taken advantage of thebalance of student opinion to gathermore supporters for + /- implementa¬tion by suddenly depicting it as har¬mless?Which report is accurate? Studentsin the College are faced wih a tremen¬dous decision. What we need (and de¬serve) in order to embrace one sidesensibly is full information, not falla¬cies.Kathy SzydagisSecond-year student in the CollegeFEATURE HHSurviving a divorce is much like sur¬viving the death of a loved one, andsometimes it takes help to cope, says apsychiatric social worker who orga¬nizes “divorce therapy” groups at theUniversity of Chicago Medical Center.Susan Wietzman, A.C.S.W., who cur¬rently is in the process of screening formembers of a new therapy group, saiddivorce therapy is for anyone having“difficulties related to the divorceprocess and the psychosocial adjust¬ments it entails. ”The stages in a divorce are not thatdifferent from the stages of mourningin the death of a loved one, ” said Ms.Weitzman, who first offered the 10-week therapy session last year.The divorce therapy groups general¬ly improve 6 to 10 people in variousstages of a marital breakup, Ms. Weitz¬man said.By discussing not only feelings butsome of the day-to-day programs theyare experiencing, members of thegroup find they are not alone in tryingto adjust, she said. “We deal with feelings, with the con¬crete adjustments of living alone, withsingle parenting, with understandingthe symptoms of stress that accompa¬ny divorce, and with just plain airingyour fears or anger, ” she said.Most people are unprepared to dealwith a divorce because it is “unlikeanything they’ve ever experienced be¬fore, ” Ms. Weitzman said. “It’s not re¬ally comparable to anything exceptdeath. ”Life after a divorce can be furthercomplicated by any difficulties a per¬son has had in the past in dealing with aserious loss, as well as by the pressuresof returning to the dating scene afteryears with the same person, Ms. Weitz¬man said.But it also can be a time for startingover and improving self-awareness,she said.Those interested in more informa¬tion about the divorce therapy sessionsshould contact Ms. Weitzman at962-9705 or the Medical Center PublicAffairs office at 962-6241.The Chicago MaroonThe Chicago Maroon is the official student newspaper of the University of Chicago.

It will also make four trips south(between 7:45 p.m. and 1:45 a.m.) withfewer stops in the early evening andthe full number of stops in the laterevening. The bus will wind throughHyde Park during the late hours allow¬ing riders to get off near their homes.The “Maroon Express” bus will be aluxury 45-seat coach. According toIrene Conley, director of the StudentActivities Office, bus service ratherthan van service was chosen to avoid“the risk of having to turn peopleaway.” “If the bus is overfilled,” shesaid, “the driver can radio in to havean additional bus dispatched.”One-way tickets for the bus will beavailable singly for $1.25 or in books of14 for $10. (That’s 70tf a clip.) Studentswith valid ID’s may buy tickets at thefront desks of dorms, the ReynoldsClub Box Office and the Ida Noyes Hallinformation desks. Conley said that thevariety of purchase locations will en¬courage “spontaneity” in student tripsdowntown.Downtown bus service has been triedBy Michael ElliottDuring the extended subzero weatherof Christmas break, a sprinkler headfroze and broke on the top floor of theShoreland dormitory, damaging over adozen rooms and forcing some studentsto relocate to other rooms in Universityhousing.According to Mark Sullivan, manag¬er of the Shoreland, security made ascheduled check of the building at 11a m. on Christmas morning and foundnothing wrong. At 12:30 p.m., however,a permanent resident on the 10th floorreported water coming into her room.The broken sprinkler head was thendiscovered.Sullivan said that most of the dam¬age to the building consisted of fallingplaster and soaked carpets. In certainrooms, however, damage was very ex¬tensive, and repairs may take up to sixweeks.Damage to student property wasmainly confined to clothing and papers,but students will be responsible for alldamage to their belongings. “The Uni¬versity is not able to cover personalBy Cliff GrammichMartin E.

Ten years ago SAO tried it andover the last two years Student Gov¬ernment ran the 7-11 bus.Student Government President JoeWalsh said that the 7-11 service wassuccessful for one quarter but that badweather the following quarters causeda large drop in ridership. Walsh point¬ed to two main reasons that SG’s down¬town bus service was discontinued.First, it is “difficult to spend a lbt ofstudent fee money” to subsidize thebus, which was a chronic moneyloser. And second, the lack of studentswho were willing to run the program ona full or part-time basis caused a“management problem.”Conley said that because of an “Ex¬pressed need, we think it’s worth try¬ing again. Students see the need for asafe, inexpensive, continuous way ofgetting downtown and back.” There¬fore, “The administration is willing tosubsidize it for at least a quarter to seeif the expressed needs are translatedinto use of the service.”“Tickets are sold to students only,”said Conley, “since we feel stronglythat this subsidized program shouldserve students.” Tickets will be trans¬ferable and houses are encouraged totake advantage of the service.

Anadditional 25 students have been giventhe option of moving if they desire. Stu¬dents will take up residence eitherwithin the Shoreland, or move to Wood¬ward, Pierce, Broadview, Hitchcock-Snell, or married student housing.The sprinkler head that broke wasnot part of the system that was in¬stalled last year after the 1982 Shore-land fire, but was part of an older sys¬tem installed several years ago. Also,students who left windows open overwinter break did not contribute to theproblem, since the 13th floor is unoccu¬pied and above all occupied rooms.“Obviously it was unfortunate thatthis came at a time nobody was here,”said Sullivan. “If students had beenhere, we would have caught it in fiveminutes.”Health, Past and Present” at Tues¬day’s Woodward Court lecture at 8:30p.m.Marty has recently been a co-consul¬tant for a project studying 28 religioustraditions and their attitudes towardshealth and religion. He noted that mod¬ern developments in medical sciencehave given a common ground for dif¬fering religions to discuss problems ofhealth and medicine.The renowned Lutheran theologianhas given four previous Woodward lec¬tures, discussing religion and culture.“I’ve always dealt with concept ele¬ments of religion at previous lectures,”Marty said. “Whether Moslem vs.Judeo-Christian tradition or Moral Ma¬jority vs. everybody else, my previouslectures have sounded rather militaryin discussing human conflicts. I lookforward to dealing with another dimen¬sion of religious life with this lec¬ture.”Marty is the Fairfax M.

EdwardTurkington said that it “proved in¬creasingly difficult (from a financialpoint of view') to run two food opera¬tions 35 feet from each other.” The ba¬kery catered to a very loyal but verysmall group, and the income from theoperation showed a large decrease fallquarter from what it had been a yearago.The loss for fall quarter was $9000,and Irene Conley, Director of SAO,said “I can’t afford to subsidize” theoperation of the bakery “when I can doit this way,” referring to the handingover of the bakery to the Ida’s Cafemanagement. By moving the bakery toIda’s Cafe, the service has been contin¬ued, and costs have been significantlyreduced.The reason for the financial diffi¬culty, according to Conley, was not dueto rising expenses. Part of the problemcan be attributed to increased competi¬tion on campus from places such asMorry’s, but the small size of theoperation also created problems. Thebakery did not give discounts for largeorders, and costs were higher than fora larger operation.Though some people blame the trou¬ble on bad managment — primarilyBook exchangeStudent government is sponsoring abook exchange in the North Lounge ofReynolds Club. The exchange willbegin today, and will continue throughWednesday. Today’s hours are 10 a.m.to 5 p.m.In making an exchange, studentsbring in books, set their prices, andgive them to the attendant. Today, Sat¬urday, and Sunday, the exchange willonly be accepting books. On Monday,Tuesday and Wednesday, all books col¬lected will be on sale as well.“This will be an opportunity for stu¬dents to get some books cheaply andget rid of some books,” said SG Presi¬dent Joe Walsh. “Unlike selling to abookstore, the seller gets potentially amuch higher percentage of the sellingprice of a book. Also, by being ar¬ranged like a central market or ba¬zaar, it will be better for those lookingfor and selling books.”For further information, contact theSG office at 962-9732.Chess team firstThe University of Chicago ChessTeam won first place at the Illinois In¬tercollegiate Chess Tournament Nov.19. The team comproised of JohnTomas, Steve Hudson, Ed Friedman, II misordering — Conley said that she isnot convinced that that was a problem.“At the end of a given day, I wouldcheck what was left. We were consis¬tently selling what we got.”Conley stressed the fact that the ba¬kery goods are still available, and infact during extended hours. Ida’s Cafewill now open at 8:30 a.m. and peoplewill be able to get coffee and donuts.According to Conley, the cafe willcarry basically the same pastries of¬fered at the Bakery, as demand re¬quires. In addition, the Cafe will carrycroissants, although they will now besupplied by the Medici rather than aNorth Side firm the Bakery receivedcroissants from.Regular customers who know FriedaPrkic, the woman who has worked atthe Bakery for the past six or sevenyears, need not fear that she has beenthrown out of a job, said Conley. Shewill be given another job at the Univer¬sity. Conley said “We have a legalcommitment, but also a personal com¬mitment. There is no way that wTewould turn Frieda out when she’s beenhere so long.”Ida’s Cafe was the name chosen inthe Frog & Peach contest, submittedby Marla Fera, who won $200 for hersuggestion. Susan Petrella, cateringand office manager of HWM ServiceCorp., has announced that the Cafe willadd a breakfast menu.

This clock has moveablehands which symbolically gauge thearms race: its hands show the proximi¬ty to nuclear war. The more dangerousthe international situation becomes,the nearer the two hands on the clockare advanced to midnight. Recently,the clock was set at three minutes tomidnight; only once, in 1953, have theclock’s hands moved closer to the mid¬night hour.The clock was first depicted on thecover of the Bulletin in 1947. The Bulle¬tin, founded by scientists to illustrate“the consciousness of the internationalscientific community.” The position ofthe clock’s hands is determined by theeditors and directors of the Bulletin, inthe past 37 years, they have moved thehands of the clock constantly. From1947 until 1953, the hands of the clockwavered dangerously close to mid¬night.1953 marked the most dangerous po¬sition of the clock, which showed twominutes until midnight. The scientistsset the clock in response to the simult-taneous development that year of thehydrogen bomb by the United States and the Soviet Union. Between 1960 and1972, the hands of the clock vacillatedbetween 7 and 12 minutes until mid¬night. During these years, the numberof arms greatly proliferated, but Stra¬tegic Arms Limitation Talks began tohalt this proliferation.In the past 10 years, however, theclock has moved progressively closerto midnight; the hands have nevermoved backwards.The recent movement of the clock’shands was a unanimous decision by all47 members of the Bulletin. Five inter¬national conferences were held in De¬cember to debate the issue of nuclearproliferation; the scientists concludedthat recent events have contributed tothe most dangerous international situ¬ation since 1953.The January Bulletin lists some rea¬sons for this situation; these include“the breakdown of meaningful con¬tacts and serious discussions,” the “in¬clination of the leaders of the nuclearpowers to talk and act as though theywere prepared to use these (nuclear)weapons under a variety of circum¬stances,” and, more specifically, the“edgy brutality manifest in the Sovietdowning of the Korean jetliner and thelightheaded appetite for military inter¬vention displayed by the United Statesin the Caribbean.”The Bulletin stresses that the peril¬ous position of the clock is not a mea¬surement of the number of deploymentof nuclear weapons, but a gauge of theeffective communication and contactsbetween the superpowers. Bulletinmanager Tom Hazinski sees the maga¬zine as an analysis to “put weapons ina political framework.” The Bulletinstresses, though, that the recent move¬ment of the clock should not be takenas a “counsel of despair,” but ratherhopes that it will create “internationalawareness” which will allow the “re¬sources of our culture — language andrational argument” — to bear on thearms race.

EdwardVrdolyak for control of local Democrat¬ic party leadership could have one of itsbattlegrounds in the 5th Ward commit¬teeman race, according to incumbentAlan Dobry.“The election for 5th Ward commit¬teeman could become a battle betweena Washington supporter and a Vrdo¬lyak supporter,” said staunch Wash¬ington ally Dobry. Dobry is being chal¬lenged by Donald Pamon.Pamon has been represented by at¬torney Andrew Raucci in a recent dis¬pute over the validity of signatures onPamon’s nominating petitions. Raucciis a law partner with Cook CountyClerk Stanley Kusper, a Vrdolyak ally,and Raucci has represented candidateswith ties to the Regular Democratic Or¬ganization in disputes over ballotplacement.During last year’s elections, Rauccirepresented Iola McGowan, 29th WardRegular Democratic committeeman,in her attempts to be placed on thatward's aldermanic ballot. McGowan sought to challenge Danny K. Davis,29th Ward alderman and ally of Wash¬ington.Raucci’s connections with Kusper,who is influential in the 25th Ward Reg¬ular Democratic Organization, andpast defenses of Regular Democraticcandidates lead Dobry to chargePamon is allied with Vrdolyak.The objection to Pamon’s petitionswas filed by Cecilia J. Ice of 2617 E.74thh PI. Pamon had submitted peti¬tions with 3,205 signatures, but Icecharges only 1,593 of these signaturesare valid. 2,497 signatures are neededfor placement on the 5th Ward Demo¬cratic committeeman ballot.Pamon is reportedly seeking Wash¬ington’s support and denies Washing¬ton will back Dobry. Nevertheless,Washington, a resident of the ward,signed Dobry’s nominating petition.In the 4th Ward, incumbent TimothyC. Evans is running unopposed for re-election as Democratic committee¬man. Owen Pulver is also unopposed inhis bid for re-election as 5th Ward Re¬publican committeeman. Braun runs for re-electionState Rep. Carol Moseley Braun(D-25) will seek reelection in 1984 elec¬tions.

Barbara Flynn Currie (D-Chicago) announced this week her sup¬port for a bill sponsored by Rep. WoodsBowman (D-Evanston) designed tocodify recent federal litigation relatingto police spying measures.The bill would prohibit investigationswhich deal only with a citizen’s exer¬cise of first amendment rights. Itwould also prohibit police infiltratorsfrom being the moving party in crimi¬nal activities.Police criminal surveillance wouldbe valid only with approval in writingby a police superintendent, and with areasonable suspicion of criminal activ¬ities. In addition, the bill states permis¬sible surveillance will allow only min¬imum intrusion upon the lives of thoseinvestigated and the intrusion shall re¬late only to criminal activities.“Present Illinois law allows for elec¬tronic eavesdropping where a CircuitCourt judge approves that use of such adevice in investigation of a felonywhere one party consents to such moni¬toring,” Currie said. She warned thatother proposed legislation “would re¬move the requirement of consent byone party.”The Hyde Park legislator furthercharged that proposed eavesdropping legislation “... could have a chilling ef¬fect on our rights of privacy and placein the hands of overambitious andoveraggressive law enforcement of¬ficers.”Barbara Flynn CurrieSPECIAL LOW RATESFORCAMPUS DELIVERY!Special low rates for campus delivery of The NewYork Times are now available at 30% off the single¬copy price.

Three hours long, bru¬tal and violent, and featuring the resur¬rection of Al Pacino’s acting career, Scar-face pushes the Gangster Film genre to its80s-style limits and then explodes thegenre itself in an orgy of gunfire that istrue to the spirit of Howard Hawks’ origi¬nal film. Scarface is not just a movie, it’salso a great movie.The film is an updating of Hawks’s 1930masterpiece, with Hawks’s Southside Chi¬cago mobster, Tony Kimonte, turned into aCuban refugee in Florida, Tony Montana.Reviewers have trashed the film for beingdedicated to Howard Hawks and hisscriptwriter Ben Hecht, as is listed in theclosing credits. But these reviewers seemto be referring to the Hawks of Red River,His Girl Friday, or The Big Sleep, filmswhich displayed a subtle mastery of theirindividual genres (the Western, the Screw¬ball Comeday, and the Detective noir, re¬spectively). The reviewers have forgottenthe side of Hawks which is rooted in cheap,violent, and cynical trash: GentlemenPrefer Blonds, Red Line 7000, and Scar¬face, which may have been the most vio¬lent film to be made in the 30s. WhileHawks made films which ultimately be¬came love stories — The Big Sleep, for ex¬ample. which has none of the darknessfound in the best American noirs — he wasalso making films which were as cynical asHollywood could then get, and DePalma’snew Scarface is true to this dark side ofHawks.Opening with the flood of refugees intoFlorida after Castro momentarily openedhis gates, the film focuses on the figure ofTony Montana, played with ruthless verveby Al Pacino. Montana is one of Castro’spsychotics who came on the boats to theUSA, and all he wants is everything. Thefilm is a simple tale of criminal life: begin¬ning, success, and the inevitable fall. Butthis film is another in a recent series whichfocus on one character: like ChristopherWalken in The Dead Zone, and JamesWoods in Videodrome, Al Pacino is inevery single scene of his movie. The resultis an unremitting look at a figure who, bysheer force of his personality, manages toelicit both our disgust and our rapt atten¬tion. Montana is never likeable, but isalways fascinating. His crassness, mixed with blunt honesty, his totally passionlessability to kill, his country-bumpkin-liketaste in garish clothes, tasteless houses,and vapid women, and finally his inabilityto see that his reach exceeds his grasp—allof these add to his appallingly compellingpersonality. Of course, all of this would beuninteresting if not for the performance ofAl Pacino, who gives his best acting jobsince The Godfather saga. Pacino, who isusually the sum total of whatever man¬nered tics he is using at the moment, hereis like a man set free, moving to the actionwith the most physical performance seenin these years of Streep-ian cerebral con¬cerns. Pacino turns vulgarity into a thingof classic beauty; his Montana is a dervishthat is devoid of a soul, or at least anyawareness of any thing besides the purelyanimal.Of course, this is exactly what Hawkswas doing with Paul Muni in the originalScarface. Muni was the most callous, cor¬rupt, and comical figure in gangster films:he killed more often and laughed moreloudly than had ever seen before. Again,the mists of historical reverence for thework of Howard Hawks have shadowedthe fact that his Scarface is one of the mostbrutal films in the history of early soundfilms. The constant blare of machine-gunfire runs throughout that movie, and peo¬ple are dispatched with an amoral care¬lessness which remains shocking to thisday, when amoral carelessness is a stapleof filmmaking. It is amazing that Brian De-Palma, who may be the master of currentamoral carelessness (Dressed To Kill), isable to present such a great homage toHawks. For all of the talk in the papersabout the new Scarface’s violence, it is notreally a violent movie at all. DePalmareins in his propensity for bloodletting inorder to focus on what is constant in Mon¬tana’s violent world: bullets, and notblood, is the recurring image in the movie.Just like Hawks’s original, Montana livesin a world where anyone can be shot downat any time. It is not the blood that is im¬portant — there isn’t any (well, just a lit¬tle). What is important is the fact that peo¬ple are being shot all the time —Montana's crudity stands out only becauseof the dull routine of killing which sur¬rounds him, exactly as in Hawks’s film. Thenew film’s final orgy of machine-gun blastsis less an excuse for gratuitous gore and Above, Al Pacino: below left, Brian De Palmamore of an homage to the final scene inHawks’s film, where an almost comicallyhuge force of police surround Paul Muniand blow him into the gutter. Here, Al Pa¬cino waves his grenade launcher with thesame monomanical spirit that Muni had.and the final shot, of Montana’s bleedingbody in a blue indoor fountain set in acream-white hallway, clearly ends the filmin an American style of gangster films thatHawks basically invented.The force that pushes the new Scarfacebeyond the realm of mere homage and intothe realm of original weirdness is the di¬rection of Brian DePalma. I never thoughtI’d admit to liking a DePalma film, butScarface is probably the most beautifuldisplay of seemingly gratuitous cameramovement in recent years. I say “seemin-ly" because it is not until the movie is wellunder way that it becomes obvious whatmethod there is to DePalma's mise-en-scene. From the first scenes in the Miamirefugee camps, DePalma’s camera is con¬stantly on the move, panning and zoomingand tracking with a speed and precisionwhich is at first irritating, just as TonyMontana is at first irritating. DePalma’scamera is the visual counterpart to Mon¬tana’s unbridled energy; the cameramoves because Montana is constantlymoving. DePalma's propensity for flashydisplays of camerawork with no relationto the plot is here blunted, because he fi¬nally has a plot — and a character — thatis perfectly suited to his style of filmmak¬ing. It is impossible to understand howsome critics found the film “ponderous”when the camera just can’t stand still,when it is constantly sweeping the viewerinto the action. Tension is built through theevents in various scenes, but DePalma’scamera is tense from the start, putting theviewer on edge no matter what is beingshown. It may be this very style which haskept people from seeing the film as thetrue homage to Hawks that it is; instead ofseeing how DePalma’s style is perfectlymatched to the updated content, criticshave attacked DePalma for not beingHawks, which again misses the point.Hawks expresses the same themes as De¬Palma, and while style is content, it is fa¬scinating to watch such different styleslead in the same directionThe final point that has to be madeabout the new Scarface has to do with thescript: specifically, the use of the word“fuck.” This film probably has more peo¬ple saying fucR ana variations on that word at more times and in more placesthan any other film imaginable. It’s use isso obvious that it gets boring. Which is justthe point. The characters in this film arebasically boring killers — and their swear¬ing is just as boring as the countless timesone hears “fuck” in Jimmy's or in someother bar anywhere. In fact, the limita¬tions of these characters’ literacy is a per¬fect evocation of the scripts of Ben Hecht,who has been turned into a scriptwritingdeity over the years, but who actually spe¬cialized in the kind of vulgar, gutter-styledialogue which needed a Hawks to cinema-tically redeem it. It misses the point to saythat the new Scarface doesn’t live up tothe old Hecht scripts. It is more accurate tosay that Scarface lives down to Hecht: theunrelenting boring vulgarity is an exactapproximation of what Hecht's 30s dia¬logue would be if updated to these unre¬lentingly boring 80s. Do not be deceived;Brian DePalma knows exactly what he isdoing when he takes Oliver Stone's screen¬play and surrounds its characters with aswirling mise-en-scene. The characters be¬come sound and fury signifying nothing,which was the truth at the heart ofHawks’s Scarface as well.DePalma's Scarface is not only a greatupdating of Hawk’s original, it also ripsaway the veneer of sentimentality whichwas the reason for the success of The God¬father films. The characters in this movieare not sentimentalized; when Montanarefuses to kill someone because he wouldhave to kill children as well, his refusalseems as arbitrary as any decision hemakes. A creature of will and instinct,raised on imported American movies. Mon¬tana has no capacity for reflection, andeven his moment of “goodness” seems theproduct of some dim memory of what evenmovies “bad guys” won’t do. Of course, heimmediately kills the man who tried to gethim to kill the children. Montana is nothingif not consistent: he’ll kill almost anythingThis was true in the Godfather films, butthe idea of the “family” made it all seemlike the killers were nice guys after all.Tony Montana is just a killing fool, likeHawks’s Tony Kimonte, and DePalma hasmanaged to bring the gangster Film intothe 80s by revealing its protagonists forwhat they were in the first place,: cheap,violent, and self-destructive. In remindingus of this, DePalma has come up with oneof the best films of 1983 But it’s not thebest. The best film of 1983 was Daviduronenoerg s Videodrome.UniversityPRESSAn InvitationThe beginning of a new year is also a time tocelebrate the achievements of the year before.It is in this spirit that jThe University of Chicago Presswith57th Street Bookswill hosta reception to honor our1983 Faculty AuthorsRebecca Barr, Wayne C.

The second half of theplay centers on Marlene, who runsthe Top Girls employment agencyand is a top girl herself..

TORATORATORA!: HOLIDAY FUN FILMS•X*X-XvX'X*X">X*X'X’X*X*X*X*:*X*X*X*X*X*X-X»^by Michael KotzeI don’t know where you spent yourChristmas vacation, but I spent a goodpart of mine at the movies, soaking upwhat I could of that great Christmas movieglut. So let's talk about holiday entertain¬ment, shall we? Yes, I think we should.I doubt whether many of the movies re¬leased this Christmas will be rememberedin cinematic history with any great fond¬ness. To be honest, it was a pretty undis¬tinguished line-up. No Gandhi this year,not even a Tootsie. The so-called “quality”films (the kind about which Gene andRoger get all misty-eyed and use adjec¬tives like “dazzling” or “memorable”)didn’t come out to play this year at Christ¬mastime. Sure, we had Meryl Streep andBarbra Streisand, but on the whole the bigChristmas movies such as Sudden Impact,Scarface, and Christine were prettysleazy. There wasn’t too much great art ondisplay — but what the hell, it was fun. Solet’s do the rundown:Sudden Impact: Ouch! Clint Eastwood’sneo-facist killer-cop thriller was the mostsuccessful film of this holy season — thinkabout that for a minute. Sudden Impact isprobably the ugliest major motion pictureever made: it has a washed-out, flat lookthat matches point for point the washed-out, flat performances of Clint and his live-in co-star, the zombie-like Sandra Locke.And it feels even ugiier than it looks: San¬dra plays a vigilante killer whom Clint istracking down; once he finds her, he de¬cides he likes her style and lets her go! Weget this after two hours of platitudesabout respect for law and order; sorryClint, it just won’t wash. The film’s comicrelief features running gags involvingfarting dogs and mass murder. A must tomiss.Scarface: Pow! This one I like! Thisgarish, nearly three-hour long remake ofthe Howard Hawks/Ben Hecht classicpushes the limits of cinematic hysteria,thanks in part to the ego-talking, quick¬thinking Cuban hood with a Cheech andChong accent whose violent rise to gang¬land power results in his coronation asMiami’s cocaine king. Pacino literally goesbeyond acting with his portrayal: he rollshis eyes, he pouts, he mugs and above all,he handles a grenade launcher like a realpro. This is a total performance, more likesomething you see in a circus than on amovie screen, and there’s no question thatit's hugely entertaining. Director Brian De-Palma shows his customary aplomb in han¬dling big-budget violence; he's the CasparWeinberger of the movie world.Silkwood: Didn’t see it. What can I say?What would it matter, anyway? Silkwoodstars Meryl Streep, so it has to be good,right? This working-class paranoid-nukeepic also features Kurt Russell and Cher,so those of us with more offbeat tastes aresure to be satisfied too. Streep-fancierswill relish yet another totally convincingaccent and hair color from the appallinglytalented Meryl.Yentl: Just when you thought you weresafe from good, wholesome holiday enter¬tainment comes Barbra Streisand with thiswarm, touching tale of oppression andtranvestitism. Plucky Barbra (Did youever notice how she spells that? Sheleaves out the extra “a”! But why, Iwonder, but why?) cuts her hair and pre¬tends to be a boy in order to study the holyscriptures, which is forbidden to girls whoStreep/SHkwood having a very bad day Dirty Harry say “Go ahead, make my day”don’t cut their hair and pretend to be boys(by the way, the story is set somewhere inEastern Europe, sometime in the past —this might help to explain things a bit).Well, it’s Torah, Torah, Torah until shefalls for Mandy Patinkin, the hebraic hunkof her dreams. Much as I’d like to make funof ein film von Barbra Streisand (shedirected, produced, and God-knows-what-elsed Yentl), this is a terrific film, even if itis a bit too nice for its own good.Christine: There’s this car, y’see, that’spossessed by the devil or something. Well,it kills people, that is, anyone who threa¬tens its relationship with the guy behindthe wheel, who, when our story begins, isArnie, a high-school nerd who blossomsinto a high-school punk under Christine’sevil influence (by the way, Christine is thecar — this might help explain things a bit.)Trashy fun from Stephen King, America’sbaby-faced master of the macrabre, Chris¬tine is a fine mix of chills ‘n’ laffs, and isthe cinematic equivalent of a Harold’swhite half with extra hot sauce.Terms of Endearment: It starts out like acomedy, but then Debra Winger dies ofcancer. Sounds like a surprise ending,right? Wrong, I haven’t even seen it yet,and I already know how it ends. Doesn’tseem fair, does it? But the real questionhere is: Is Debra Winger’s first name aspelling homage to screen queen Strei¬sand? If so, why?Uncommon Valor: Tough Vietnam action,with two of Hollywood’s most real realmen: Gene Hackman and Robert Stack. Ihaven’t seen it, but my roommate tells meit’s great; but then again, my roommateput up a picture of Alexander Haig in ourbreakfast nook.Two of a Kind: I haven’t see this one yeteither, but neither has anyone else. If any¬one does see it, please write and tell uswhat you thought of it.To Be or Not To Be and The Man WhoLoved Women: Comedy remakes. As PaulMacCartney said of a possible Beatle’s re¬union. “You can’t re-heat a souffle.”Maybe Mel Brooks didn’t know any bet¬ter, but Blake Edwards should have.The Keep: A real Christmas sleeper. Thissupernatural thriller was directed by Mi¬chael Mann, whose Thief was one of themost impressive first films to come out inyears. The story concerns a ancient powerkept prisoner in a great stone-walledkeep, wakened to action in 1941 by Nazioccupation troops. Though the film’s sec¬ond half falters seriously after its brilliantfirst hour, The Keep remains an intelligentand stylish film that relies on sheer atmo¬sphere, and not gore, for its unsettling ten¬sion. Too bad nobody is going to see it.Vertigo: Although technically not aChristmas film, this re-issue of the 1958Alfred Hitchcock thriller deserves mentionbecause it just may be the greatest movie *every made. See this one before you seeany of the others. Then see Scarface, whichfeatures this Christmas’ most memorablemovie line in its celebrated chain-sawscene: “And now...the leg!” Happy holi¬days, kids. mtrn |■✓ III jL filler Him J*-' ' |j :Earthquake reveals a lot about Reynolds and AndrewsNerd hero of Christine waiting to play trump PlymouthJohn Travolta trying to crawl out of this film4—FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1984—THE GREY CITY JOURNALAFTER-CHRISTMASBOOK SALEVPRE-INVENTORY SAVINGS10% OFFTHE PRICE OF ALL BOOKS CURRENTLYINSTOCKALL CALENDARS AT HALF-PRICE!from Friday, January 6, to Friday,January 20The University of Chicago BookstoreGeneral Book DepartmentStuart Brent, Manager970 E. 58th St.962-7712THE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1984—5El Salvador; Work of Thirty PhotographersEdited by: Harry Mattison, Susan Meiselas, Fae RubensteinWriters and Reachers Publishing Cooperative, 1983This is photojournalism. This collection of photographsstir up strong emotions. I already knew that the govern¬ment of El Salvador has brutally killed 40,000 peasants. Ialready had seen some of the rare photographs of the car¬nage, and I was really moved. I was angry that our gov¬ernment sponsors this bloodshed. I wanted to call up Sena¬tor Percy and yell in his poor secretary’s ear.My reaction is probably similar to the reactions of thosepeople who first gazed upon Ansel Adams’ photographs ofsnow covered Yosemite or Dorothea Lange’s migrantmother. Those photographs helped push through importantenvironmental and New Deal legislation. Hopefully, thisbook will influence the public by showing them what isgoing on in El Salvador, just as Adams showed the immensebeauty of the land that was at stake and Lange picturedthe devestating social costs of capitalism.These photographs portray reality, that is where theirpower rests. Unlike white papers and State Departmentofficials, photographs don’t lie. The Salvadoran peasantwho is clamoring for his own little plot of land to lift himand his family out of feudalism, is not, I would say to Mr.Reagan, an agent of the Soviet Union. No, Yuri Andropovdid not put him there and fill his head with all sorts of Com¬munist ideas like “freedom from political repression andthe right to benefit from one’s own labor.’’ And once thatpeasant has fought to gain that little spot of land, he willnot take up arms and march overland across 1,000 miles ofMexico and 1,000 miles of Texas desert to menace the U.S.and its helpless army.In “Don’t Look Back,’’ Bob Dylan told a Time correspond¬ent that he could never convey the truth to his readers,only a picture of a drunk throwing up in a gutter could dothat. The same is true with these photos. An endless streamof press bulletins in Time or the Tribune could never conveythe true horror of El Salvador. Talk of political solutionsand promised elections mean nothing when you look at apicture of a pile of dead bodies, in various stages of decom¬position, some of whom look like their genitals have beenshocked, burned, or simply lobbed off.The editors arranged the photographs chronologically.They tell a familiar story of causes and effects and revolu¬tion. First there is poverty, export crops, and political re¬pression. The photos at the beginning of the book portraythe abject poverty of those who manage to live on incomesless than $600 per year. We see tons of coffee being load¬ed onto a ship bound for northern markets. This explainsthe emanciated faces and bony figures (the worst cases ofmalnutrition and found not just in Africa, but in Americanclient states, despite their tremendous agricultural fertili¬ty). Next we see “security” personnel coiffed with Chileanstyle helmets and armed with American and Israeli auto¬matic weapons frisking people.Then we see what people do to increase their standard ofIrving and explain their civil liberties: cover walls withgraffiti denouncing the government, demonstrate peace¬fully, put up posters that call for things that run counter to '*■ %■'$■ >And no'Salvadortroops beThese tnot lookthere wameant foirejected Iproductioiself well ithe subjephotograflighting,art and piI do haphotos hbut the irnude, nadidn’t ne<explanatitend of theI mustAmerican interests, distribute leaflets, attend church ser¬vices, and form political parties.But then the government steps in. Political action engen¬ders reaction. Revealing photos show: onlookers gazing ata pool of blood where a student was distributing anti-gov¬ernment leaflets (Think about that William F. Buckley —that should make ypu thank twice about support for thoseforms of government. Imagine if when you criticize demo¬cratic presidents, if he sent the F.B.I. after you?), rows ofcoffins filled with people who were participating in anti¬government street theatre, nuns with their hands overtheir heads being led out of their convent by governmenttroops. There is the familiar picture of a mother holding aphotograph of her “disappeared” son, in her lap.The tale continues. The people say enough and begin toarm themselves. Then there is more bloodletting. Twowomen lie face down thumbs tied on the side of the road.The security forces didn’t even bother to buy them or throwthem into a ditch or a river. Villagers flee from govern¬ment shelling. And security forces stand smiling over someneatly laid out bodies, like some proud Pennsylvanianbuck hunters. The war intensifies. Wounded soldiers, wholook startlingly like South Vietnamese regulars, are load¬ed into U.S. supplied helicopters.EL SALVADOR * LAND OF TERRORw Americans to the rescue.

Theimages are plentiful and compelling — a woman showingher breasts which were disfigured when American-trainedtorturers threw hydrochloric acid on her, full color photosfrom the “book of the missing,” or closeups of the deathsquads’ handicrafts.While I paged through El Salvador, I kept telling myselfthat each one of those rotting heaps of human flesh was aperson, and that each person had a mother, father, maybea brother, a wife and a child. And I thought: “What if thatwas my brother or mother they killed?” And I kept remind¬ing myself to multiply the grief by 40,000.Senor Reagan gets all bent out of shape when a gang ofleftist thugs murder a couple of people, in Grenada. Yet atthe same time, he gives hundreds of millions of dollars to agang of thugs who kill dozens of people per week, includ¬ing archbishops and nuns. Instead of sending the marinesto Grenada, we should have sent them down to free thepeople of El Salvador from a gang of right-wing thugs.Take ten minutes from your studies and go down to theSeminary Coop bookstore and see what we are paying forand the true nature of American foreign policy.—Dan Sakura• Hillel Classes •MONDAYS 5:00 P.M.

Dwelling on this stuff may not be thebest idea in a season when the sun sets at fourthirty in the afternoon.

Miro died Sunday, December 25th, at the age of ninety, the lastof the first generation of European Modernists. He was considered,along with Picasso and Matisse, one of the certifiable masters of twen¬tieth century art, a fitting heir to the Great Tradition. But if this is so,Miro was the most reluctant member of the noted triumverate, for hiswas a much less serious painter. Unlike Picasso and Matisse, he wasnot involved with the great formal issues in painting of his time. Mirowas primarily an expressive painter. This is not a fault — in fact it washis strength.The humor and fantasy of Miro’s world (and he was perhaps the firstartist since Rousseau who could be said to have created his own uniqueworld) were the hallmarks of his paintings. He was Catalan, like thegreat fantastical architect Gaudi, and his work reveals a certain wildwhimsy that his countryman shared. Later artists like Klee and Calder,and to a certain extent his contemporary, Arp, also worked in this veinof deadpan humor and mild irreverence, but Miro was first. In fact, in1924, he painted what is among the very first surrealist works — his“Harequin’s Carnival.”But Miro was not only a surrealist. As he grew older his concernschanged, and by the early 1960’s he was engaged in a series of non-ob¬jective canvases that can best be understood in light of the color-fieldpainting current in America at the time. If he was influenced by Ameri¬ca, it was a reciprocal gesture, for Miro’s work was one of the seminalinfluences in the development of Abstract Expressionism — the move¬ment that put America on the cultural map. His all-over style and con¬fusing of the figure with the background showed such painters asGorky and Pollack the power in using the entire canvas as an arena forideas and expression.Miro’s innovative, very personal visual language is immediately rec¬ognizable. He was also very prolific, and these two factors combinedhave made him one of the most widely recognized artist of our time.His passing marks the end of an era. — Jonathan Katz Joan Miro, Harlequin’s Carnival;. 1924-25; oil on canvasJOAN MIRO1893-1983K you have an interest in music art books society movies dance or pofitics Come to brunch!and a pen, joh us.

January 6, 1984WillThe following is a map showing loca¬tions of crimes reported in Hyde Parkfrom Dec. 22 to 28. Data is taken fromthe “Police Blotter” in the Hyde Park Herald (1/4/84).These data are based on initial crimereports and not on any follow-up inves¬tigations.Mahoneycontinued from page one— to moral and philosophical things.‘Do I see a contradiction between con¬servatism and humanism? And allsorts of hypothetical questions.”Were they at all biased? He is em¬phatic: “No, no, no, I was very sur¬prised. I thought I was slowly hangingmyself when I was telling GwendolynBrooks my conservative views on nu¬clear policy. As I told her what I’d do ifI were running the country’s policy Iwatched her eyebrows go straight up.But I didn’t think they were biased atall. They just wanted to make sure youknew what you were saying, and thatyou could come to terms with the prob¬lems of any position.”And “they look to see whether youhave a coherent moral position andwhether there are contradictions in theway you look at things.”One prerequisite for Rhodes appli¬cants is “physical activeness.” Mahon¬ey is a member of the varsity basekt-ball team here and plays variousintramural sports. “But the athleticfactor is minimal,” he said. “I don’tthink anyone else who was selected atthe Great Lakes level was a varsityathlete of any kind.”At Oxford Mahoney will study poli¬tics, philosophy, economics “and hope¬fully some French.” His U of C majoris economics, but lately, he said, he has“really started getting interested in po¬litical and moral philosophy. Oxford will give me an excellent opportunityto continue.”After Oxford Mahoney plans a ca¬reer in law or business, with possibleinvolvement in politics “somewheredown the road.” Most importantly, hesaid, “I want something to make themost of my interdisciplinary prepara¬tion.”In addition to his near-perfect gradepoint average, Mahoney sports a na¬tional office in his fraternity Psi Upsi-lon and a position on the University’sVisiting Fellows Committee. “The aca¬demics are the most important part ofwhat I’m doing now,” he said, “butalso very important are athletics andthe fraternity. Believe it or not,through playing basketball and beingin Psi-U, I’ve been able to see a lotmore than if I had just read the booksstraight.”What happened when he finally won?“I just freaked out. I started hittingwalls, another one of the winnersjumped on my back, and then, well, wewent downstairs and called everybodywe knew.”“I think they want somebody, nomatter what field they’re in, who hassome feeling of social responsibility,”he said. “And somehow that whatyou’re doing is going to benefit people.That’s really the key to it.”“When they announced the decision Idon’t think any of us really believed it.It hasn’t hit me completely, even now.At the end you feel like you don’t knowwhy it happened, you’re just glad it’sover. And,” he said, “you have a vaguenotion that something great has hap¬pened to you.” NEHcontinued from page onesupport “Fundamentals: Issues andTexts,” a new area in which under¬graduates will concentrate on basichuman issues and on classic texts thataddress them.The new challenge grants comprisethe largest amount to a single institu¬tion among the $22 million in grants an¬nounced by NEH. Though two other in¬stitutions besides the University itself— the Chicago Public Library and theNational Humanities Center in NorthCarolina — also received $1 millionchallenge grants, the $1,250,000 totalfor the University and the Press islarger.“The challenge grant to the Univer¬sity as a whole is an important affirma¬tion to our role in both undergraduateand graduate education and in the artsand sciences in this country,” saidGray.“Similarly, the challenge grant toour Press recognizes the importance ofan endowment that will support itslong-term program of publications inthe humanities.”The grants will be used in part in afive-year campaign to raise $150 mil¬lion for the arts and sciences in its un¬dergraduate College, four graduate di¬visions, and the Oriental Institute,Divinity School, and the Committee onPublic Policy Studies.Fetner said that the funds will beused specifically in the followingways:• To enable faculty members, espe¬cially below the senior level, to betterpursue their research and teaching ofgraduate students through travel, de¬velopment and revision of courses, andto support a series of scholarly work¬shops bringing together faculty andstudents.• At the undergraduate level, to fa¬cilitate progress toward curriculum re¬vision and to expand supervised teach¬ing internships.• To establish an endowed professor¬ship for a senior scholar in the humani-Court TheatreCourt subscriptions upBill Conner, Managing Director ofCourt Theatre, says that seasons sub¬scribers now tota! 4,335, representing athree-fold increase in the last twoyears.

Bloom is chal¬lenging incumbent Richard M. Daley,whom Washington defeated in lastyear’s mayoral primary.Washington told the Hyde ParkHerald Dec. 21 he would back thestate’s attorney candidate which “willprobably be the one that is acceptableto a majority of Hyde Parkers.” Pre¬sumably, this means the mayor willback the 5th Ward alderman, who livesin Hyde Park and got more than 90 per¬cent of the vote in Hyde Park precinctsduring last year’s aldermanic elec¬tions.Bloom declared his candidacy Nov.29. He is expected to work to gain thevotes of the coalition of blacks, Hispan-ics, and white liberals which helpedelect Washington mayor.Bloom has received the support ofseveral Washington aiiies, including 4th W’ard Aid. Timothy Evans andState Rep. Barbara Flynn Currie(D-26).Washington allies were expected toform a rival slate to compete with theslated candidates supported by theRegular Democratic Organization’scentral committee. Such a slate neverdeveloped, though, as Washingtonallies decided to concentrate on select¬ed county-wide races and in electingward committeemen allied with Wash¬ington. The mayor’s allies have en¬tered candidates in 35 of the city’s 50ward committeemen races, althoughseveral are competing against eachother in the same wards.The mayor is also expected to asse¬mble delegate slates committed to himas a “favorite son” candidate at the up¬coming Democratic National Conven¬tion. Washington, who was strongly op¬posed to an early Presidentialendorsement by leaders of the RegularDemocratic Organization, is expectedto slate delegates in the eight Congres¬sional districts which contain Chicagoprecincts.The Chicago Maroon—Friday, January 6, 1984—13ABallwebber prizes awardedWomen split four gamesBy Geoff SherryAfter dropping their first two gameson the road, the University of Chicagowomen’s basketball team returnedhome to take a pair from ConcordiaCollege and conference foe Ripon Col¬lege.According to coach Diann Nestel, thefirst two losses were a result of “beinghesitant and tentative.” Wheaton Col¬lege defeated the U of C 69-50, while Illi¬nois Benedictine College handed theMaroons a 59-50 loss.Upon returning home Dec. 3 againstRipon, the Maroons went right to work.The first half, marred by sloppy playand mental mistakes, ended with Riponup, 24-19. However, Beverly Davis andShiela Dugan opened up the second halffor the Maroons with two quick jumpshots and sent the stage for a dramatic45-40 come-from-behind victory.Urged on by tenacious defense, preci¬sion free throw shooting, and cleverplaymaking, the Maroons gained theadvantage, 38-32, with 6:05 remainingin the game. Ripon later tied the con¬test at 38, but to no avail. Chicago took the lead for good on a pair of freethrows by Gretchen Gates with 2:21left. Gates led the Maroons with 16points and 8 rebounds.Three days later the Maroons putthoughts of finals aside and concentrat¬ed on defeating Concordia College,60-48, in a game which was not as closeas the score would imply. After playingto a 20-16 lead at the nine minute mark,Chicago tallied unanswered points toend the first half with a 40-16 lead.The game was highlighted by out¬standing fundamental basketball.Strong defense led to a potent offensewith Gates, Helen Straus, and WendyPietrzak combining for 34 points and 11offensive rebounds. The backcourt fea¬tured Dana Howd and Beverly Davisbreaking Concordia zone with precisionshooting and sharp passing. Poppingfor the most part outside of eight feet.Howd finished 6-for-ll from the fieldand Davis 2-for-5. All but four Maroonshad a hand in the scoring, with Gatesleading all scorers with 24 points, andKaren Walsh chipped in with four as¬sists.athletes who have contributed signifi¬cantly to a varsity sport. Both academ¬ic progress and financial need are con¬sidered by the awards committee.Jane Look (’85) was cited for her par¬ticipation in tennis. Celeste Travis (’85)and Randi Wagner (’84) were awardedfor their contributions to the volleyballteam.In giving the awards, WABA recog¬nizes the contributions made by thesewomen to their teams, on and off thecourt, by their enthusiasm and their co¬operation with teammates.Repass all-MCACFreshman football player Ted Re¬pass was named an All-Conference per¬former by the MCAC coaches in lateNovember. Repass, or the “Garani-mal” as he was dubbed by his team¬mates, is a 6-1, 215-pound middle line¬backer. He led the team in tackles with102 and added four quarterback sacks,and his teammates voted him theMaroons’ Defensive Most ValuablePlayer.Wrestlers travel to two tough tourneysBy Don HaslamThe University of Chicago wrestlingteam travels to Michigan tomorrow foran all-day tournament. At the end offall quarter, though, they competed intwo tournaments.The Maroons travelled to CornellCollege in Mt. Vernon, Iowa to partici¬pate in the Turkey Invitational on Nov.26, and to Kankakee, Illinois for theTiger Invitational Dec. 10. They facedtough, experienced competition at bothevents, but came away with winners ateach.Gene Shin (190 lbs.) won his weightclass at Cornell. Mark Nootens tookthird in his and Mike Perz nabbed afourth place finish. Karl Lietzan suf¬ fered a concussion in the process of de¬feating the wrestler that eventuallyplaced third in his class, and was un¬able to proceed in the meet. He wasfully recovered several days later andcompeted in the Kankakee meet.No team scores were kept at the in¬formal Cornell meet, but Maroon headcoach Leo Kocher felt that Cornell(last year’s MCAC runner-up to Chica¬go) looked very strong and will be areal obstacle in the Maroons’ path toconsecutive MCAC championships.The very strong teams from DivisionIII, including nationally ranked Augus-tana and Central Iowa, that competedin the meet should prepare Chicagowell for the MCAC meet, and Cornell on Feb. 18.Chicago faced even stronger Divi¬sion I teams from Illinois State andNotre Dame at the Tiger Invitational,but Shin and Nootens won their weightclasses nevertheless. Tim Bachenbergfinished third and Jef' Farnell placedfourth in the meet as well. Chicago as ateam finished fifth behind the two Divi¬sion I schools, Elmhurst College, andOlivet Nazarene, yet Kocher feels “wewrestled well considering we were justcoming off finals week and four one-hour practices.”Shin and Lietzan hold the team’smost impressive records, at 7-1-1 and6-2.The Women’s Advisory Board forAthletics (WABA) has announced therecipients of the Edith BallwebberPrizes. Fall 1983 awards were present¬ed to Jane Look, Celeste Travis, andRandi Wagner.The Edith Ballwebber Prizes areawarded by WABA and the Depart¬ment of Physical Education to womenPHOTO BY ARA JELALIANCeleste Travis (left) and Randi Wagner in action together. The two, alongwith Midwest Conference women’s first singles champion jane Look, won theEdith Ballwebber Prizes this fall from the WABA.It’s always hard to place things in order after along vacation, especially with sports, which relies ontimeliness. Granted, much of the stuff in today’ssports section—except for the IM information— isancient material, but next week the affairs hereshould take on a little bit of order with (fingerscrossed) a reporter assigned full-time to every sportthis winter.Congratulations are due to four Chicago athletesfor their achievements this fall. The Midwest Confer¬ence All-Star football team, announced after the finalMaroon issue last quarter, included freshman mid¬dle linebacker Ted Repass, the only candidate of Chi¬cago’s five nominees to receive that honor. Also,Jane Look (tennis), Celeste Travis (volleyball),Randi Wagner (volleyball) all received Edith Ball¬webber Prizes for significant contributions towomen’s athletics. Look captured the first singlestitle this fall while leading the Maroon tennis team toa Midwest Conference tournament championship.Travis and Wagner started on the volleyball team,which just missed a playoff spot in the conferenceafter a close match with contending Lake Forest.Again, congratulations.♦ * *Free throw shooting is important in basketball.Just ask women’s basketball coach Diann Nestel. Inthe opening loss to Wheaton, the Maroons were 10-of-17 from the line, and in the ensuing loss to IBC Chi¬cago hit 2-of-8 at the foul line, for a two game per¬centage of 48 percent. Turning to the two wins, the Uof C hit 17 of 19 against Ripon, and 8-of-10 againstConcordia for a combined 86 percent from the line...Typing is also an important part of basketball. Inthe Ripon game, the opponents were awarded a tech¬nical foul shot because of a typo in the program. Chi¬cago’s Karen Walsh was incorrectly listed asnumber 11.A sixth player is often spoke of when “happening”basketball entrepreneurs discuss a team’s strengthsand weaknesses. Chicago counts on Helen Straus tofill that role with her inspired play and leadership.“We can always count on Helen to be ready to play,”commented Nestel. A six-foot center on the same14—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, January 6, 1984 The Third Stringteam as heralded All-American Gretchen Gateswould tend to be overshadowed, but not Straus. In thefirst four games she has averaged six points and fiverebounds while playing under 15 minutes in two ofthose games.* * *Can the year of the dogs and Kogs continue thisweekend? The NFL conference championship gameswill continue likely heavy favorites Washington andthe Los Angeles Raiders, but Seattle comes into theirgame on the heels of its upset of Miami, and the NFLhas seen the underdogs cover the spread at a recordclip this season. Apparently people rely heavily onpast reputations not performances, which makesTom Landry’s statement after his team’s elimina¬tion all the more haunting. “We’re just not a greatfootball team,” said the Cowboy coach, who’scoached the team since its inception.It still seems very hard to doubt Washington (JohnMadden’s obvious choice for the best spitters in profootball) and Los Angeles (the Raiders, of course)will be in the Super Bowl Jan. 22.One team to watch next season is the Green BayPackers. Chuck Knox proved this year with Seattlethat given a reasonable amount of talent, the headcoach can make all the difference. Green Bay nextseason will boast Forrest Gregg as head coach.Gregg led Cincinnatti to the Super Bowl two seasonsago, and with Hank Bullough on board as defensivecoordinator, the Green Bay flow-thru defense maynot yield so many yards this year (they gave up wellover 400 yards, almost 3/10 of a mile, each game).Speaking of underdogs, every underdog paid off onthe big Bowl day Monday, the obvious highlightbeing Miami’s triumph over Nebraska in the OrangeBowl. Every other underdog beat the spread as well.One lesson from all this, though, is how provincialthe major Chicago newspapers are. The day after thearguable greatest game in Orange Bowl history, theTribune’s top story was “Fiery UCLA downs cold II-lini” or something like that. But the Sun-Times out¬did that by neatly burying the Orange Bowl story be¬neath three pages on the dreaded Illini, and anotherBowl gamp a«s well. Maybe I’m spoiled, but I grew up reading the Boston Globe, whose sports section hasalways seemed to have something Chicago paperslack: a perspective that extends bevond the stateline. * * *Of all the White Sox moves during the baseballwinter meetings and over our vacation, the most vi¬tally important one has nothing to do with findingbullpen help under the age of 40 (or a fastball betterthan 40), or a second baseman, or Sportsvision. No,folks, the White Sox have not found winning the ALWest satisfying enough, apparently, so they have en¬tered the frozen pizza business.Next spring our own King Kong Kittle will be sell¬ing us White Sox pizza on TV and radio. The pizzawill be distributed by Mr. Z’s Corporation of Cedar-burg, WI, which also markets Brewer Pizza.You can buy four different sizes of White Sox pizza.They have the “Sacrifice Fly,” the “Double Play,”or the “Grand Slam” deluxe size, but my person fa¬vorite is the tasty sausage “MVP” Pizza. YumYum!The White Sox have announced their home sched¬ule for 1984, when they begin what should amount toanother runaway in the AL West. They will play 33games during Spring Quarter, so there are plenty ofopportunities to head to Comiskey Park.And what season would be complete without somewords of wisdom from Ron Kittle himself. Here,taken from the White Sox compilation of “Kittle-isms,” we present the Ron Kittle quotes of the year:On why he wears glasses rather than contact lenses,Ron said “I never was too crazy about putting myfingers in my eyeballs.” On his preference for res¬taurants and the kind of food they offer, Ron said“You gotta remember one thing: I’m not a connois¬seur, I’m a consumptioner.” And finally, on his reac¬tion when he stepped on the field for the All-Stargame, he predicted “When I go out there Wednesdaynight, I’d better be wearing rubber pants.”Finally, some trivia.

In the undergraduate residence division. Comp¬ton, Blackstone, Thompson, and Breckinridge allhave an opportunity to win the title, while Zen Set¬ters and I-House have floated to the top in the gradu-ate/undergratuate independent division.Due to the number of teams and the number of var¬sity events at the Henry Crown Field House, the IMbasketball season will spill over into Spring Quarter.A total of 82 teams have signed up, and each squadshould play up to eight games or so in the season.The season began Wednesday, and will end with theplayoffs at the outset of next quarter.No clear favorites dominate the undergraduatemen’s residence, as past powerhouse Chamberlin,especially without high-scoring Don Pasulka, is nolonger a major threat, there will be many competingteams, and one game to watch will be the Fiji-Psi Umatchup on Feb. 18.In the men’s undergraduate independent league,last year’s undergraduate champions, the Rough Riders, have apparently changed their name toCharley’s Deep Sea Divers. The name change shouldmake no difference, as the team remains the stron¬gest contender for the top spot. A challenge maycome from Weber and the Ducks, which consists ofplayers from the varsity baseball team.The medical school rules the graduate men’sleague, but the championship team from the last twoyears has broken up. Kevin Tetsworth will lead theIV Shooters, while Larry Hatchett plays for TooSwift, last year’s champion. Too Swift, however, is inclinicals, so they could be vulnerable.In the women’s basketball league—combinedgraduate and undergraduate—Tufts remains strongbut may not repeat. Out of Season consists of womenvarsity athletes, mostly from volleyball and softball,and the Medflies (coached by Tetsworth) will be acontender as usual.* * *In undergraduate residence table tennis, Fernan¬do Cavero of Hitchcock won the tournament, defeat¬ing another Hitchcock resident, Birju Bhagat. Ca¬vero defeated Bhagat 21-18, 23-21 after defeating PhilSiegel in the semifinals, 21-6, 21-10. Bhagat won hissemifinal match over Mark Richardson, 18-21, 21-15,21-5.At the IM Council meeting yesterday, IM DirectorKevin McCarthy announced that there may be some vrescheduling for IM basketball, especially for Feb.17, when another previously scheduled event willtake place in the Field House. Teams with games onthat day at the Field House should check the IMnewsletter or stop by the office...

Basket¬ball began Wednesday, and Cem Burgazli (at752-8968) will be handling officiating, rules interpre¬tations, etc...

Scott pointed out that though themeet occurred prior to Christmas,when teams close out preparation forthe winter season, several NCAA Divi¬sion III qualifying times were made,by swimmers from the top schools.The top women’s swimmer for theMaroons, senior co-captain MarthaKinney, did not acheive the cutoff forRockefellerChapelJanuary 8,19849 a.m.Ecumenical Serviceof Holy Communion10 a.m.Discussion Class:“The Sermons ofMartin Luther King, Jr.”11 a.m.University Religious ServiceJAMES M.

Kinney reached the Nation¬als her freshman year in the 100-yardfly, and last year established a Mid¬west conference record in that eventwith a time of 1:04.8.“Martha has a chance to make Na¬tionals,” commented Scott, “but it’shard to say in what event.” Kinneyhopes to repeat the achievement of herfreshman year, and “has been liftingand swimming hard to try to makethat,” said Scott.Freshman Lesley Ham placed llthfor the women in the 50-yard free style,and was first alternate in the 100-yard free style. Katie Moran, the team’sother senior co-captain, swam to a 14thplace showing in the 200-yard breaststroke.For the men, Doug Cipriano andEverett Lee made 12th place finishes,Cipriano in the 1650 and Lee in the 200-yard individual medley. Bob Denbytook 14th in the 100-yard backstroke,and was first alternate in the 100-yardfiy-“The meet came the weekend beforefinals, so it was tough to field a com¬plete team,” said Scott. “We (Scottand head coach A1 Pell) hope that withthe beginning of the new quarter, ev¬eryone who’ll be participating will beout to get in shape.”Put the pastin yourfuture!LIVE IN AN HISTORIC LANDMARKThoroughly renovated apartments offer the convenience ofcontemporary living space combined with all the best elementsof vintage design, bark and lakefront provide a natural settingfor affordable elegance with dramatic views.— All new kitchens and appliances — Community rcxim—Wall-to-wall carpeting— .Air conditioning— Optional indcxx or outdoorparking — Resident manager— Round-the-clock security— Laundry facilities oneach tl(X)rStudios, One.

AlthoughPitt came in a distant fourth place,totalling only $500 in winnings whileUCLA won more than $11,000 andNotre Dame over $8000, one Pittcontestant said he would have done itall over again, despite the cost. “It issomething that I will alwaysremember,” he said. “I really feltgood about representing Pitt,” andbesides, “how many people have evergotten to see the Pacific or be ontelevision?”* * *At other universities, apparently,radiation and inconveniences relatedto it are not considered a way of life.For example, at the University ofPennsylvania, where a cyclotron is tobe built to aid in medical research,the Undergraduate Assembly earlylast Dec. opposed existing plansbecause of concerns over health risksand inconvenience. The cyclotron isplanned for construction near theuniversity nursing building and would emit low levels of radiation.Nevertheless, students there haveexpressed anxiety over exposure toradiation and over blocked access tothe building, and the assembly calledon the administration to “revise (theconstruction plan) to remove allhealth risks and make inconveniencesas minimal as possible.”* * *“Proposition 48” is still a course ofcontroversy, though it was approvedlast January by the NCAA. The ruleestablishes higher academicstandards for freshmen players atDivision I Schools.The rule change was made at theurging of the American Council onEducation. It denies athletic eligibilityto any student whose combined SATscore is lower than 700, or ACT scorelower than 15.The rule is scheduled to go intoeffect Aug. 1, 1986.* * *At the University of PennsylvaniaDec. 5, the deputy governor of theBank of England lectured on thecurrent global debt crisis. ChristoperMcMahon cited, as causes of the debtcrisis, the rapid growth in size andpower of international financialinstitutions, a lack of “coordinationbetween different governments anddifferent institutions,” and shifts inthe world economy. He said ThirdWorld nations should not be blamedfor borrowing vast sums, since “ourown countries have borrowed largeamounts of money from banks to fundgovernment expenditures.” Assolutions, McMahon proposedcontinual adjustments byindustrialized and developingcountries, a lower dollar interest rate,and greater emphasis on privatesources of cash flow to developingnations, rather than banks. His speechwas generally well-received, anddescribed by students as “a goodoverview of the problem.” but notsaying “anything new.”Maroon awards will soon beavailable to those students whomade outstanding contributionsto the paper last Summer Quarter.They are:Karen AxtSteven DiamondBill EjzakCliff GrammichAnna HupertLorraine KennySondra KruegerNina Lubelljeff MakosSharon PeshkinChecks may be picked up during theweek of January 2 in the Student ActivitiesOffice, Room 210, Ida Noyes Hall.
