The Chicago MaroonVolume 93, No. 33 The University of Chicago ©Copyright 1984 The Chicago Maroon Friday, February 10, 1984Bloom calls opponent’s hiring ‘discriminatory’By Cliff GrammichAid. Lawrence Bloom (5th)charged yesterday that he hasreceived “rampant reports ofdiscriminatory policies in pro¬motion and pay-scales” in theCook County state’s attorney’soffice.Bloom, who is challengingState’s Attorney Richard M.Daley in the March 20 Demo¬cratic Primary, said the in¬cumbent’s office was “not hir¬ing blacks and Hispanics andnot promoting them equally.”“Out of 52 supervisors in thestate’s attorney’s office, twoare black and none are Hispan¬ic,” Bloom said. “Less than 10percent of all the attorney’s inthe state’s attorney’s office areblack. There are rampant re¬ports that we get all the time,that we’re trying to confirm, of discriminatory policies in pro¬motions and pay-scale.”Asked how Daley’s hiring ofminorities compared to that ofthe previous state’s attorney,PHOTO BY ARTHUR U. ELLISLarry BloomGuard fails to emptyBy Michael Elliotand Sondra KruegerA fire guard failed to evacu¬ate Quantrell Auditorium afterthe pulling of a fire alarm dur¬ing a DOC film Saturday. Thefalse alarm occurred duringthe 11 p.m. showing of RiskyBusiness, and the guard al¬lowed people to remain seateduntil firemen arrived.Said Mike Kotze, director ofDOC films, “someone, ap¬parently a drunken guy wan¬dering the building, pulled afire alarm in the basement”just after midnight. “The Fireguard did not know what to do,so she ran upstairs,” saidKotze, “but our people are nottrained to know what to do inthese situations — that’s thefire guard’s job.”According to Kotze, DOCmust hire fire guards from thePhysical Plant Department atthe cost of $8.50 per hour for in¬surance reasons. The PhysicalPlant, in turn, hires studentemployees to work in these po¬sitions.When contacted about the in¬cident, Guy Olsen, a studentworking in the custodial officeof the Plant Department who issupervisor of the student fireguards and responsible fortheir training, said “If she juststood there, she was wrong.When the alarm is tripped, re¬gardless of the event in pro¬gress and regardless of per¬sonal judgment, they musttreat it as an emergency situa¬tion.”Olsen, who did not find outabout the failure until Tuesdaynight, said the standard proce¬dure when a fire alarm ispulled is for the fire guard to“yell to the projectionist to turn on the lights and call Uni¬versity Security, empty the au¬ditorium completely, close thedoors, and wait for the fire¬men.”He went on to say, “If therewas a fire, I have completeconfidence she would have re¬sponded well. She’s an experi¬enced employee who hasworked for us for two years. Iknow she’s good in crowd situ¬ations — I see her deal withkids on drugs and vandals whohave come to disrupt events,calm down 200 to 300 people de¬manding to be seated in 30 re¬maining seats.” But he rei¬terated, “She shouldn’t havehad to think about it; sheshould have evacuated every¬body.” He speculated that, “ina panic, she exercised judg¬ment.”Olsen defended the programitself and the training he pro¬vides. Many people wonderwhy fire guards are hired atall. “I think it’s a worthwhileprogram; just one of theaspects of insurance and also amatter of fire and safety codesthat an organization must pro¬vide when it lends or leases an¬other organization’s proper¬ty.”He said that when hiring newguards, “The first thing I do isexplain this job from a legalpoint of view — the insuranceand municipal regulations.Then, from a functional pointof view, I go over what theymust do in normal and emer¬gency situations. I show themthe fire extinguishers, andmake sure they know how touse them. I show them theexits, and how to direct the au¬dience out of them.”He added “we occasionallyInsideOmbudsman’sautumn reportpage fivePortrait of Fernand Ktinoyif gcjKhnoppfpage 5 Bernard Carey, Bloom said “Ihave no idea,” but he added“there were more supervisorswhich were minorities.”Daley press aide TerryLevin denied yesterdayBloom’s charges of a lack ofHispanic supervisors. Hepointed out that RaymondGarza, a Hispanic, supervisesthe state’s attorney’s work inthe Markham felony courts.Levin did not have available,though, the total number of su¬pervisors in the office, al¬though he did mention twoblack supervisors in Daley’soffice, including Glenn Carr,who is chief of the office’s pub¬lic interest bureaus.Daley himself has oftennoted the increase in minorityhiring he says his office has un¬dergone.Quantrellhave extra meetings” to dis¬cuss new or unusual situations,and that he has posted a noticeconcerning the incident andhas talked personally to eachfire guard about it. Though thefire guard on duty last Fridayhad missed the most recentmeeting previous to last Fri¬day, Olsen said that he did notthink it affected her perfor¬mance.Asked if he would take anydisciplinary action against thefire guard, Olsen said “No, I’mnot going to let her go — butthere’s been a warning now,and if it were to happen again,she would be let go.” He saidthat the Physical Plant used tohire union employees for fireguard positions, but when thisgrew too expensive, hadturned to hiring students. “Ithink they’ve worked out aswell as the non-student em¬ployees.”Daley onBy Cliff GrammichWarning that gangs are“much more sophisticated inthe 1980s,” Richard M. Daleyspoke on his office’s gang pros¬ecution unit Tuesday night.“Gangs in the ’80s are moreof a sophisticated criminal or¬ganization,” Daley said. “Theyhave their lawyers, accoun¬tants, tax shelters, religiousfronts, so they’re much moresophisticated. They own prop¬erty and they take over proper¬ty.”Daley’s remarks came dur¬ing a visit non-political in toneto a sherry hour at Shoreland’sCompton House.The Cook County state’s at¬torney stressed two themesconcerning gang persecution— their violence and communi¬ty cooperation need to combatthem.“The cooperation we receivefrom federal, state, and localauthorities is really very sig¬nificant,” in combatting gangcrimes, he said. Daley alsostressed involvement fromcommunity organizations inaiding victims and witnesses ofgang crime.“We’re getting more com¬munity participation becauseof the violence gangs have in¬flicted upon their communityresidents,” he said.The state’s attorney said “We’ve increased tremen¬dously the numbers of blacks,women, and Hispanics in theoffice,” Daley told the Maroonduring a campus appearanceTuesday. “For the first time,we have Hispanic supervisorsin the Cook County state’s at¬torney’s office. We’ve in¬creased the number of blacksupervisors; previously weonly had one, now we haveeight or nine.”Bloom’s comments cameduring yesterday’s first“South Side Forum” onWHPK-FM. Bloom spoke on avariety of campaign issues, in¬cluding Daley’s prosecutionrate and Bloom’s own potentialsupport among voters on thecity’s Northwest and South¬west Sides.Bloom attributed the in¬creased rate of Daley’s prose¬cutions to a 50 percent increasein the state’s attorney’s budgetand an increase in casesbrought to the state’s attorneyby local police departments.“If this radio station had a 50percent increase in funding,you’d increase coverage by 50percent,” Bloom said.“Daley’s conviction rate hasgone up only 20 percent. Wherehas the rest of our moneygone?”Asked about his appealamong the city’s white ethnicvoters, Bloom said “I don’tthink I’ll dopoorly.” He saidvoters on tne Northwest andSouthwest Sides will not parti¬cipate in the Democratic pri¬mary as much as voters inareas which will supportBloom heavily.Bloom also said he can dobetter among the city’s ethnicvoters than Daley in a generalelection fight against RichardBrzeczek.“If Daley wins, those votersare gone,” Bloom said. “I havegang activities have been keptat low levels in Hyde Park be¬cause of efforts by the Univer¬sity’s security and the SouthEast Chicago Commission(SECC). He said the SECCdoes an “excellent job involv¬ing the Community in combat¬ting gang activity. Daley saidgang activity near Hyde Parkis usually confined to areasnear 47th St. and 63rd St.While gang activity may bekept out of Hyde Park, Daleynoted that crime by gangs andgang recruiting occurs in allareas of the county, regardlessof economic status. W’hile hebelieves that poor economicstatus can cause a rise in mis¬demeanors such as shoplifting.Daley sees no connection be¬tween gang violence and aneighborhood’s economic envi¬ronment.Daley said more employ¬ment opportunities would notcurb gang recruiting. Gangsare recruiting from grammarand high school students intheir young teens, he said. As aresult, Daley believes earlierintervention by the state on de-liquent youths is needed.Narcotics trade fuels gang fi¬nancial resources, Daley said.He added that more help isneeded for victims of narcoticsuse.Relating a story of a medical a better chance to keep blackand Hispanic voters in the gen¬eral election, at least as good achance at drawing ethnicvoters, and a better chance atgetting independents, who willhave their pants scared off byBrzeczek.Bloom also said he mayfavor strengthening currentwiretap laws to federal stan¬dards. Currently, Illinois lawallows wiretapping by law en¬forcement officials only if oneparty consents to it. Federallaw, however, allows wiretap¬ping when approved withoutconsent of either party. Whilehe gave indication he mightwant to strengthen the Illinoislaw, Bloom said he would ad¬vocate stronger safeguardingof personal rights under such asystem.Briefly discussing the parkdistrict and the proposed planto incorporate it into city gov¬ernment, the alderman said hehad “always supported” sucha plan.Mayor Harold Washingtonhas advocated such an incor¬poration, in addition to hintingthat he may seek to makeCong. William O. Lipinski(D-5) the new head of the dis¬trict.Lipinski is the 23rd Wardcommitteeman on the city’sSouthwest Side, and he servedas that ward’s alderman be¬fore going to Congress. Lipins¬ki has been an ally of Daley,and a move by Washington toname Lipinski parks chief wascalled an effort “to buildbridges” by Bloom. The mayorhas long sought to oust currentparks chief Edmund Kelly, apolitical nemesis to Washing¬ton.Bloom termed Lipinski “aninteresting choice.”continued on page ninestudent who sold cocaine to payexpenses, the state’s attorneysaid, “People say, ‘Gee, I feelsorry for that medical studentwho couldn’t pay his bills.’ Isay, ‘No, I feel sorry for all thevictims he made.’ ”PHOTO BY ARTHUR U.

The play runsWednesday through Saturday. Feb. 15,16, 17, 18 at 9 p.m. in the First FloorReynolds Club Theatre. Jonson was acontemporary of Shakespeare, and thisplay represents 17th centurv wit at itsfinest.Volpone, the magnifico. is the emi¬nent opportunist. He is a glutton forgold and it has turned his world insideout. From the opening mass, throughhis steady degeneration, Volpone runsheadlong towards his hedonistic heav¬en. He desires the pleasures that onlymoney can buy. Mosca, his faithful par¬asite, creates these dreams for him. Byshifting shape, Mosca flatters and be¬guiles, inspires belief and crushesfaith. When he is good he is very goodand when he is bad the play becomes Dawn Brennon: Celia of Volponemore interesting and funny. Mosca haslearned from Volpone how to look outfor himself. Each tries to top the other.It is only the beautiful woman who cannot be bought that ensures their fall.All of the other characters are just ascarefully constructed, giving Volpone acompleteness not often found in thetheatre. This production emphasizesthe acting and performance, the enter¬tainment of the audience, and themajor themes presented in a completeand fresh way. The play is set in thatnever-never-land where fables happen.If it engenders laughter, perhaps abelly laugh or two, it has succeeded.Tickets are available in advancefrom cast members or at the door.

It isimportant to take a second, and closer,look at the issues raised by the piece.The Spectator’s editor, Tom Elden, isquoted as saying that his magazine’s“editorial policy will tend to be conser¬vative... (but that it) is not propaganda.It is (to be) rational, intelligent newsanalysis.’’ I wished I believed him. Hisassertions, however well-intentioned,are clearly unpersuasive. One merelyhas to look, as King did, at the actionstaken by The Spectator’s staff to raisefunds for production. When one doesthis, Elden and his boys are seen actingin a jarringly inappropriate manner,one clearly at odds with that of respons¬ible journalists. Elden refers to one do¬nation to his paper, for instance, as a“small contribution from someone whois the president of an oil company...it’sa personal contribution.” King, in amanner appropriate to responsiblejournalism, checks out Elden’s storywith a clearly angry Shell Oil PublicAffairs officer, who states that it wasnot a small personal contribution, butrather an official $500 corporate gift.This seems like a rather important fac¬tual error for the editor of a “rational,intelligent” paper to make, doesn’t it?King goes on to enumerate certainfriendly criticisms made by the Eldengang about fellow UC student journalsin a prospectus sent to potential cor¬porate advertisers. They refer to TheMaroon’s “widely known...poor jour¬nalism and sloppy layout.” (I bet thatone brought in about as much in contri¬butions as it will in student good-will).The prospectus continues by tattling onthe “liberal” Grey City Journal’s fe¬minist, and avante-garde (note “ratio¬nal” spelling) literature,” and to its(gasp!) “sexually explicit poetry”.Just so as to be journalistically impar¬tial, Elden and his buddies even criti¬cize their conservative bed-mate,Counterpoint. The Editor “clarifies”any misunderstanding those (unintend¬ed) readers might have had about hisprospectus, at least concerning TheMaroon. “The Maroon is fine,” heclaims, “we’re just supplmenting it.”Hmmm — does this mean that Eldensubscribes to the theory that “poorjournalism...is fine?” Or does it meanthat he just didn’t mean what he said inthe prospectus...or to King? Or could itsimply mean that Elden is a hypro-crite?Actually, perhaps we’re being a littlehard on our “rational and intelligent”Mr. Elden. he does make a forthright,and certainly noteworthy, effort to jus¬tify his friendly criticism: “You’ve gotto realize,” he says, “that the prospec¬tus was drawn up to drawn money..andthat flavored it. Well, that certainlymakes me feel better — I always likedthe taste of pandering opportunism.But let us go on and ask — in whatway is The Spectator going “to supple¬ment” The Maroon? Well, for one thingit takes into account the “short atten¬tion span” of the typical University ofChicago undergraduate, and sur¬mounts the problem with innovativefeatures and layout. The former is ex¬emplified by a rather novel article on“a man who literally lived in Regen-stein Library.” Now I realize that allUniversity of Chicago students figura¬tively live in Reg, but this is somethingelse again! How exciting — I just can’wait for the first issue. But wait,there’s more! Production Consultant tothe paper, Aame Elias, divulges thatthe innovative layout, specially de¬signed to stimulate student minds, willconsist of “charts and more graphs.”I’m just hoping that they’ll have agraphical representation of the Regman’s attention span. What fun thatwould be!The Spectator will also supplementThe Maroon in teaching (hopefully withoodles of graphs) conservatismthrough economics. Evidently Eldenthinks that the two are inextricablylinked, for when queried about “whatwas meant by (his) assessment of theUniversity of Chicago as a liberalcampus, Elden replied ‘Let me put itthis way I think that in the country asa whole, people tend not to understand certain ideas about economics...ThisUniversity is a sample of the....whole inthat respect.” Elden’s gang seem to as¬sume that a propagation of their loftynotions of economics will automatical¬ly convert all to their own conservativeviewpoint. This smacks of simple-min¬dedness, an attempt to harness the dis¬cipline of economics to provincial andsophistic rightist ideologies. And tothink that I was under the misappre¬hension of being liberal and a student ofeconomics.The Spectator, it should be repeated,is not going to be propagandists. Edi¬tor Elden assures us of that fact, and Ibelieve him. Well, that is I believe him about as much as I believe that it is pos¬sible to have an independent editorialpolicy while having the bulk ($1500) ofone’s funding coming from the ultra¬conservative US Industrial Council Ed¬ucational Foundation, and while “fla¬voring” certain facts to suit“conservative sources of money” (an¬other Elden justification for his com¬ment about the GCJ). Is it really poss¬ible that their presumptuous idea ofeconomic reeducation just happens tobenefit those interests providing Spec¬tator funding? I think not. But thenagain, perhaps it is not our place to asksuch sticky questions; sometimes,there just aren’t any satisfactory an¬ swers. At least the ICEF sends itsgroup publications ‘‘conserva¬tive...cartoons.” Must be for our shortattention spans.In closing, I think it is appropriate tonote that, in this year of 1984, we shouldbe thankful that at least a part ofGeorge Orwell’s concept has cometrue. On Monday, February 6, the Uni¬versity of Chicago will get to see “new-speak” in action. As Elden says “justread the paper.” And remember, TheSpectator is watching you!Clark PriceSenior student of economicsin the CollegeSpectator a fascist campus publicationTo the editor:I was very much interested in yourrecent article, “New Newspaper OnCampus,” which I initially believedwas about some new, objective paperabout to come out on campus. Afterreading the article, I felt the more ap¬propriate heading for your piece shouldhave been “Fascist Newspaper OnCampus,” since the Spectator is clear¬ly nothing more than a conservativefront. Now, I am not suggesting thatsuch newspapers, even the racist Dart¬mouth Review, should be banned; thisis still a semi-free country, and I sup¬pose that even right-wing lunaticsshould be allowed to speak, if for noother reason than to demonstrate howblatantly absurd most of their viewsare. Rather. I should like to address their notion that on such a “liberal”campus there is a dire need for a con¬servative paper, one to be somehowsupported by several facultymembers.It seems to me less-than-truthful toassert that the U of C is liberal. Recent¬ly, a group of people, who at best Iwould call pathetically naive, took outthe largest advertisement in this paperdecrying abortion on demand in the US.This paper also showed its typical lackof journalistic ethics when it highlight¬ed the race of a group of muggers inHyde Park, a mistake that I and othersfind particularly offensive and insensi¬tive. The University still adheres to thepolice-state tactics of the SolomonAmendment, even though this institu¬tion claims to have a high regard forAn alarming performanceTo the editor:The scene: A darkened auditorium.A bright light at the rear casts flicker¬ing patterns on the screen in front. Pan¬ning across the room in the dim light,we see few empty seats; even the bal¬cony, officially closed for this show, ishalf full. Suddenly a wailing cry cuts inover the sound track. Some recognize itas a fire alarm. The projector keepsrunning, however; half a minute later,it is shut off and the lights come on, yetno one moves. The wailing contin¬ues...“Cut!” cries the director. “Youmissed the cue!”Such was (almost) the scene at Quan-trell Auditorium last Friday night. Afire alarm was pulled during the sec¬ond reel of the late show of Risky Busi¬ness. The projector continued for abouthalf a minute. After the lights came on,however, the building was not cleared.Instead, the audience was eventuallytold to remain seated while the sourceof the alarm was found and shut off.Everyone in the community hasprobably been through dozens of firedrills over the years. Perhaps that’sthe problem; it gets to be treated as agame, a free break from classes ortests. But fires are real; people do die in them. No one could know at the timethe alarm went off that it was indeed afalse alarm. When a fire alarm goesoff, everyone should know what to do:Get up and walk out. There’s no sign offire, no smoke coming into the auditori¬um? Good! That gives everyone a bet¬ter chance to get outside calmly. Go outjoking about it; go out grumbling; butgo.For the poor screenplay, sloppydirecting, and bad acting in this miseen scene, the staff of Doc Films, and inparticular the fire guard, who shouldhave done better, get a poor ratingfrom this reviewer.Dan BreslauFourth-year student in the College academic freedom. The EconomicsDept, is notorious for its “free-market”theories and lack of philosophical di¬versity (indeed, some of its membersare on the advisory board for the Spec¬tator). Even the Music Dept, is conser¬vative and closed-minded, an obscenitythat one would think would be at oddswith the notion of art.Supposedly the existing campusnewspapers are so wanton and “avant-garde” as to necessitate the founding ofa newspaper devoted to conservativeideas. I don’t see this as the case at all— I haven’t seen a hint of protest or ob¬scenity in the Maroon or the Gray CityJournal (sic) in years, and I rathermiss it. This University at one time wasknown for its liberality and diversity ofopinions. Apparently, things havechanged over the years as our govern¬ment has become more right-wing andinsensitive to individualism. The emer¬gence of a new rightist publication oncampus, and one that is backed byprominent faculty members at that,can only stifle whatever open-minded¬ness still exists here, and I am some¬what frightened of the prospects for thenext few years. Hopefully, the obviouseditorial bias of this new paper (whatdid happen to journalistic objectivityanyway?) will act as a catalyst for ac¬tivism against the resurgence of con¬servatism. I very much doubt it, how¬ever, given the reluctance of moststudents and faculty to speak outagainst anything these days.David Blair ToubFirst-year student inthe Medical School2Vi years of petty gripesTo the editor:Did you ever notice that the studycarrels in the Regenstein are laid outlike backwards swastikas?

And don’t you reallyconsider laughing when people ask youto sponsor marathons in Iran (TehranOlympics in ’92)?I like Chicago and Washington andNew York, but the United States can’t‘Give me my ten weeks9To the editor:Why have classes been cancelled forMonday? The official reason seems tobe that the unmitigated drudgery ofwinter quarter requires a break inorder to be survived. I was under theimpression that that was the purpose ofKuviasungnerk, which accomplishedthis goal admirably. So why are wehaving a day off? I, for one, do not ap¬preciate having class time taken away.Monday/Wednesday/Friday classesthis quarter will have only nine weeksbecause of the holiday on Jan. 2, thereading period, and now this. The read¬ing period was bad enough, but now I’mmissing out on even more. I’ve paiddearly for those hours in class, and if my tuition isn’t going to be cut my classtime shouldn’t be. Not that I want mytuition cut — I want ten weeks ofclass.It’s been a very common complaintin the past that ten week quarters artoo short, so why has it been truncatedto a miniscule nine weeks? As to the al¬leged need to break up the quarter-college students ought to be responsibleenough to relax on their own withouthaving someone else set aside a specif¬ic time for it. The purpose will be de¬feated anyway, just as the readingperiod has been, by make-up classesand doubled-up homework assign¬ments.Sondra Krueger‘Little professor’ a foolTo the editor:I understand there is soon to be a newtabloid on campus — The Spectator.But tell me the truth did this fellowElden really complain:I think that in the country as awhole people tend not to under¬stand certain ideas about eco¬nomics and politics. This univer¬sity is a sample of the nation as a whole in that respect. What wefound is that only some 5 percenthave taken classes in economics.“Only 5 percent have taken classes ineconomics”—who is this little profes¬sor anyhow? I’ll tell you this much: heis a fool trying to fool us if he plans tosay that the death squads and other USsupported monstrosities arc best un¬derstood in amoral economic terms.G.D.

I’m going towrite an article for the Times com¬plaining about those noisy supportersof Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day; my pa¬tron saint is much better.I think that abortion, animal rights,and public schooling take up entirelytoo much editorial space; I’d like to seemore articles crying out for a larger lo¬cation for the credit union.

Whywon’t the SGFC finance Walter Mon¬dale’s campaign — he hasn’t said any¬thing of political interest.Actually, what bothers me most arepeople who -write to the Maroon overtrivial offenses like someone pickingtheir nose and grossing people out. I’vesaved up my gripes for two and a halfyears. I just couldn’t take it anymore.Oh, and Cliff Grammich is a man’sman.Nicholas J. LynnThird-year student in the CollegeThe following is the autumn 1983quarterly report of the University'sStudent Ombudsman Jean M. O’Brien.In it, she discusses four specific prob¬lems and attempts to place them withinthe larger context of student life at theUniversity. This report was submittedto the President Jan. 28.During the autumn quarter the Om¬budsman’s Office handled a total of 71cases, a figure rather typical of pre¬vious autumn quarters. Unlike otherquarters, the cases did not cluster with¬in any particular area. With the excep¬tion of the four cases discussed below,most problems brought to our attentioninvolved unique situations encounteredby students individually. The Ombuds¬man’s role in such cases is to help thestudent to develop an appropriatestrategy for resolving the problem. In¬tervention is initiated only when thestudent himself has exhausted all poss¬ible channels for resolving the prob¬lem. The four problems I discussbelow, however, did require interven¬tion. And because each in its way isrepresentative of problems faced by alarger group of students — foreign stu¬dents, dissertation-writing students,post-doctoral students, and studentswho use the University’s music prac¬tice facilities — I think that they de¬serve reporting in some detail and aneffort to place them into the broaderperspective of student life at the Uni¬versity.Post-Course WorkGraduate StudentsAfter making several inquiries on hisown behalf, a post-course work studentcame to the Ombudsman’s Office todiscuss the availability of informationon insurance policies for doctoral can¬didates who are no longer registeredstudents. The student wondered whythe University couldn’t provide a list ofrecommended insurance companies toease the process of searching for a newpolicy. The University Health insur¬ance officer had informed him that nosuch list exists; she suggested that thestudent “shop around” to find a suit¬able plan.We intervened on the student’s behalfto obtain an elaboration from the insur¬ance officer. She would first recom¬mend that the student consult an insur¬ance agency, she said. An insuranceagency handles several companies andcan help the student determine whichplan best suits his needs. A second op¬tion for students who graduate or com¬plete course work and are no longerregistered is to apply for an extensionof the policy in effect when the studentleaves school. These extensions areavailable, at an increased fee, for up toone year, the University Health insur¬ance officer saw no need for the specif¬ic kind of service the student was re¬questing, i.e., a list of recommendedinsurance companies.We argued for a more specific formof assistance on two grounds. First,health insurance administrators havethe expertise to advise students aboutwhich companies are reputable andwhich are not. Second, the University,through the Baker Commission onGraduate Education, as expressed itsdesire to assist post-course work stu¬dents with these kinds of problems. Eli¬gibility for the University’s health in¬surance program is but one of manyimportant institutional supports takenaway from a graduate student when hecompletes his formal course work. Thisloss places graduate students in the dif¬ficult position of searching for a qualityinsurance program they can afford;often they have no experience in such asearch.Our proposal, that the Universityprovide either a list of recommendedinsurance companies or a set of guide¬lines by which students themselves canjudge which policy is most suitable,was accepted in theory by several Uni¬versity officials. Administrators of theUniversity Health Service have ex¬pressed willingness to participate increating the service, but claim that alack of staff time prevents their pro¬ceeding. The Dean of Students in theUniversity is also interested in arrivingat a feasible plan for creating the ser¬vice in one form or another. Currently,these two areas of the University are evaluating the resources necessary toimplement the service. We stronglyurge that this be accomplished asquickly as possible.Reynolds ClubMusic Practice AreaTwo separate complaints were filedconcerning new users fees for theReynolds Club Music Practice Area.Under the new system, users arecharged $5 per quarter to use therooms. Student bands also pay $5 perquarter, but also pay a $15 fee for in¬strument storage space that is occa¬sionally available on a very limitedbasis. The income from the fees is usedto defray the cost of more frequentpiano tuning and room maintenance,and is supplemented by the regularReynolds Club budget.The complaints about this new policyrevealed a fundamental dynamic aboutdissatisfaction at the University. Oftendiscontent can be avoided or mini¬mized simply by providing an explana¬tion. Once our complainants learnedthat the income from the users fee wasto be used solely to maintain their facil¬ities and tune the pianos more fre¬quently, they were satisfied that thefees were appropriate. All too often,however, fees are imposed upon stu¬dents without an adequate account oftheir purpose. When this is the case, re¬sentment is inevitable. In recognitionof this problem, we worked with theDirector of Student Activities and theReynolds Club Manager to develop aninformation sheet on the Music Prac¬tice Area that includes an explanationof the new fee structure.The Status ofPost-Doctoral FellowsIn the third case, a problem with theemergency room and a hospital clinicopened up the larger issue of the statusof post-doctoral fellows in the Universi¬ty community. A post-doc suffered abroken nose on a Sunday, and was ac¬companied by a friend to the Emer¬gency Room. After spending four orfive hours waiting for a doctor to arrivefrom the Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic toset his nose, the post-doc became impa¬tient and requested that EmergencyRoom personnel recontact the Clinic.They did so, and were informed by anENT clinic doctor that he would be un¬able to set the nose that day anyway,since it would be too swollen. Emer¬gency Room personnel relayed the in¬formation, and instructed the post-docto report to the ENT Clinic the next daywhen he would be attended to on awalk-in basis. He went home with aprescription for medication.

He spentthe entire morning waiting, and finallysaw a doctor around noon. This doctorarranged for surgery on Wednesday,two days later.The post-doc arrived early onWednesday. After a six-hour wait hesaw a doctor who explained that thedelay was a result of an emergency inthe morning. As a consequence, hewould be unable to set the post-doc’snose that day. The post-doc asked for adefinite appointment for the next day.He became angry only when he wasthen informed that he couldn’t make anappointment tor the next day because itwas already after noon, and the ENT Clinic only made appointments for thenext day in the morning. Then, askingfor an appointment the day after, hewas told that the ENT Clinic did not dosurgery on Fridays. The post-doc even¬tually convinced the doctor to try to fithim in on Friday.Angry and frustrated, the post-doccontacted the administrative assistantin his department. She called Universi¬ty Health Service, with whom so far hehad had no dealings, and told the post¬doc to go over there. He saw a nurse,who phoned the ENT Clinic to confirmthe arrangement made for surgery thenext day. He reported the next day, andthe surgery was finally performedafter a six-day delay.When the post-doc brought this inci¬dent to our attention, we were puzzledthat University officials had not beeninvolved from the beginning. No duty-dean had been called w hen the post-docarrived at the Emergency Room. TheUniversity became aware of the situa¬tion only by accident, when the post¬doc dropped in on his department’s ad¬ministrative assistant to relate hisexperience. Perhaps he should haveknown enough to contact UniversityHealth Services when he encountereddifficulties in the beginning, but the in¬formation he received in the Emer¬gency Room did not include this sug¬gestion. Rather, he was led to believethat prompt treatment by a specialistwould be available to him if he simplyshowed up at the ENT Clinic. Certainly2 the carelessness the post-doc sufferedd at the hands of the ENT Clinic was now fault of the University, but it could* have been avoided if a duty-dean had| been present at the tim of the emer-£ gency to apprise him of the various* medical resources available to him.® We contacted the Director of the Uni-° versity Health Services to find out whyl the duty-dean system had failed in thisinstance. The director had become con¬cerned about the incident himself, butinformed us that duty-deans were notcalled for post-docs, because post-docswere not registered students.We decided that we needed more in¬formation on the status of post-docswithin the University community. Anadministrator in the post-doc’s areaDean of Students Office explained thatthere is no simple way of defining apost-doc’s status. There are a numberof different categories, and many poss¬ible variations within each category.Each categorization carries with it aspecial set of rights and privileges.Based on the criteria outlined by theadministrator, however, we estab¬lished that the post-doc in question wasregistered as such, and should havebeen utrcdeu u> a itgis.it.-ieu Muiifnicarrying all student privileges. The problem is that post-docs oftendo not realize that their position withinthe University is not as simply definedas it might seem. After extended con¬versations with the Dean of Students inthe University, we agreed that aclearer definition of the status of post¬docs was required. Such a definitionwould include a discussion of the rightsand privileges afforded each post-docaccording to his arrangement with theUniversity, and would try to provide aclear statement of the relationship be¬tween these advanced scholars and theUniversity. To this end, the Dean, theRegistrar, and the Provost’s Office arecurrently drafting an information sheetthat will try to clarify the status of post¬docs.It should be noted that the post-doc inquestion carries no grudge toward theENT personnel he encountered duringhis ordeal. They were uniformly cour¬teous and were as helpful as the systemwould allow them to be. When confront¬ed with the option of proceeding with acomplaint against the ENT Clinic, hedecided to let the issue drop. In the end,he was well satisfied with the medicaltreatment he received. It should also benoted that the post-doc does not believehe ws entitled to preferential treatmentsimply because of his association withthe University. He simply expressedhis indignation that anyone should haveto suffer through the frustrating andpainful experience he had endured. Theduty-dean system is not designed to ex¬pedite the movement of University stu¬dents throught the hospital and its clin¬ics in preference to other patients innore urgent need of medical attention.The duty-clean can. however, providesupport for the student and insure thatnone of his needs is overlooked.Foreign StudentsIn the fourth case, a foreign studentrequested our aid in locating a lan¬guage tutor. The student was encoun¬tering trouble in keeping up with hiscourse work and was reluctant to con¬tinue his studies without assistance. Heexpressed a willingness to pay for theservices but did not know where to turnfor help.The Director of the Office of Interna¬tional Student Services was sympathet¬ic to the student’s plight. He explainedto us that the language skills of foreignstudents are evaluated before they areformally admitted to the University.Despite these precautions, studentsoften arrive with language problemsthat are real or perceived. The Office ofInternational Student Services acts asa resource for the students and oftencan arrange for a student to have hislanguage needs accurately evaluated.Resident aliens and foreign born citi-continued on page nineThe Chicago Maroon—Friday, February 10. 1984Practice, perseverence keys to successful interviewsBy Rosemary Blinn“Fantastic! After months ofsending out resumes and makingtelephone calls, you finally havean interview. You’re excited andfeel your search is over. Butthen exhilaration may dampen.You feel a vague uneasinesswhich you have no troubletracing to nervousness andfear. ”This pre-interview nervousness thatH. Medley describes in his bookSweaty Palms: The Neglected Art ofBeing Interviewed is not uncommonfor the student who finds that summeror permanent job he really wants.Deborah Lipsett, assistant directorof placement at the Office of Careerand Placement (CAPS), says thatinterviewing is often a deciding factorin whether someone will be hired for ajob. She advises students who arelooking for permanent jobs to firstfocus on what they want to do andthen to pursue specific jobsaggressively.The situation is not much differentfor summer jobs. Jane Dennett,student employment counselor atCAPS, says, “The interview’s alwaysimportant. That’s where they see ifyou’re what they’re looking for.”What is the “right” interviewingmethod to land that great job? Thereisn’t one failproof method but thereare steps that will make you betterprepared to sell your abilities and winthat job:•First, make sure the job is one youreally want. Lipsett emphasizes thisbecause, “First you’ve got to beinterested in the job and then you’regoing to do a lot better in theinterview.” You’ll be sincere andtherefore better able to show youwant that job.•Research the company well — readannual reports, PR catalogs put outby the company, and directories likeStandard and Poor’s which give the company’s financial background. Callpeople listed in the alumni contactsfile who work at the company or talkto anyone you know who works thereto learn as much as possible about thecompany. You can then mention thosepeople in your cover letter.PHOTO BY KC MORRISDeborah Lipsett•Talk to people in the field forinterviewing practice. Lipsett says, “Ireally encourage students to practiceinterviewing and the best way to dothat is to get out there and talk topeople in that field...just getting usedto the lingo and feeling comfortablewith someone who’s in the field thatyou’re interested in pursuing so youcan by osmosis pick up what youshould be knowing.”•Try an informational interview tolearn more about the company andthe field you’re interested in. Arrangeone by calling a manager, telling himthat you don’t know much about thecompany/field and ask if he couldarrange a time for you to ask himsome questions. Dennett advises thatyou make it clear you do not yet want a job and that, “All you want is tofind out more about the place.”•Practice interviewing with yourfriends. Use this to get over yournervousness and maybe to go over the50 most commonly used interviewquestions published by the EndicottReport and available through CAPS.•Prepare for general questions bythinking of specific examples. Lipsettillustrates this: “The toughestquestion is ‘tell me about yourself’because students don’t know where tobegin. Respond with a story orsomething about yourself that makesyou feel really good.” Interviewersoften ask these questions to see howyou feel about yourself and you wantto appear as positive as possible.♦Decide on five topics you will coverabout your qualifications, experienceor interest in the company and takecontrol of the interview if possible byrelating questions to these points.Lipsett shows how this isadvantageous, “If you know in yourhead that you are definitely going totalk about five points no matter whatthe interviewer asks you, you’re goingto feel a lot better because at leastyou’ll know you did what you set outto accomplish.”•Dress appropriately for the job,particularly for summer jobs whereyou aren’t working for advancementas you would in a permanent job.Dennett says: “If you’re going towork as a groundskeeper orlandscaper, don’t wear a three-piecesuit. That’s a logical thing that youmight not think of in yournervousness...ideally for summer jobsyou want to be a member of thecrew.”•Emphasize what you can do for theemployer, as well as what you willlearn. Dennett explains that youshould “Think in terms of what theemployer is looking for, not so muchwhat you’re looking for, and how youcan fit that bill...Approach them onthe basis that the experience youwould gain there would be fabulousbut you think you can add to it...stresswhat they’re looking for...they know that you’re looking for experience,you’re looking for a job, and lots oftimes they know you’re looking formoney.”♦Be honest, but still try to bepositive, particularly about past jobs.•Prepare questions to ask that showyou know the company.•Discuss salary realistically — don’task for more than the employerseems likely to pay yet be aware ofwhat entry level jobs in that area payso _vou won’t be cheated.•Maintain eye contact if it’scomfortable for you but don’t force it,according to Sweaty Palms. Besensitive to whether it bothers theinterviewer. If it does, stop.•For students who need summerjobs more for the money than theexperience, Dennett suggests thefollowing: “Explain to them thatyou’re a very capable person and thatif there are any questions you’ll behappy to give them references...Theemployer’s taking just as much of arisk as you are... they’re looking to seeif you’re a bright, capable person.”The keys to success in interviewingfor a job are: knowing the company,being prepared for questions, wantingeither the job or the money it offers,and being lucky.PHOTO BY ARTHUR U. ELLISJane DennettU of C student grateful to blood donorsBlood donors often ask where theirblood goes after thev donate it. This isthe story of a University of ChicagoCollege sophomore who benefitedfrom the life-saving fluid. The bloodwas collected from healthy, generousdonors and processed in the BloodBank at the University of ChicagoMedical Center before it wastransfused.Becky Miller grew up in the smallIowa City of Waterloo. Since herparents were making plans to move toan isolated island in Alaska wherethey would teach Indian children,Becky applied and was accepted forearly entrance into Rosary College inthe fall of 1981.Only IV2 months into the school yearBecky hurt her back during aswimming class. The cause of herinjury was a tumor the size of twograpefruits that had developed on herpelvis.She was referred to Dr. Nachman atWyler Children’s Hospital at theUniversity of Chicago Medical Center.After a week of extensive tests, it wasdiagnosed that Becky had Ewings’sSarcoma, a form of bone cancer. “Iwasn’t afraid, I was too busy toworry,” recalls Becky. It was foundthat the tumor was localized and wastreatable.Becky’s treatments began at theend of October with very strong dosesof chemotherapy. Three drugs wereused: adriamycin, cytoxan andvincristine. Becky stayed at WylerHospital every third week, three dayseach week, for treatment and spentthe rest of the time with her uncle insuburban Chicago. Becky feltnauseous, developed mouth sores andspent much time sleeping.The second phase of her treatmentbegan in January with radiationtherapy every day and smaller dosesof chemotherapy.Blood tests were taken daily, andblood counts were monitored6—The Chicago carefully. During her hospital stay atWyler, her blood counts did drop todangerously low levels. Becky wastransfused with five units of washedred cells and an additional three unitsof packed red cells. This provided herwith the oxygen-carrying hemoglobinmissing from her body. She alsorequired multiple transfusions whenhospitalized during the summer inIowa.Becky received her last treatmentin August of 1982. She no longer feltsick, but she had lost considerableweight. She now had only 90 poundson her 5’3” frame. The chemotherapyhad destroyed the microscopic cancercells throughout her body and hadshrunk the tumor. The radiationtherapy had further shrunk the tumoruntil it disappeared.Becky liked being treated at WylerChildren’s Hospital because she likedbeing around children. “I liked seeingand hearing them ply. They continuedto express happiness even though theywere ill. I enjoyed talking with otherpatients. I made some good friendsduring my stay.”Becky has a lot to be grateful for.“I am thankful my cancer wasdiagnosed in time to be successfullytreated. I especially admire thedoctor’s knowledge and skill incarrying out the treatments. Themodern advances in medicaltechnology made life a lot easierwhile I was hospitalized. The insertionof a Hickman line, a plastic tube inthe main vein the neck, allowed me toreceive multiple IV’s andchemotherapy without the use ofneedles.”When asked how the experiencechanged Becky’s life, she replies, “Ithas given me a goal. I am now in apre-med program. Right now I wouldlike to become a general practitioner,live in Alaska, and serve the needs ofpeople there.”If it hadn’t been fur her stay at the University of Chicago Medical Center,she may not have enrolled in theCollege. During her stay in Wyler shemet two influential people, a nurse,Maureen Roberts, and Ann Kenneally,a social worker, who told her aboutthe College and encouraged her toapply for admission. It was Ann whoactually took her over to theAdmissions Office to pick up theapplication.Becky MillerBecky’s first quarter at theUniversity of Chicago was rough.“Since I was still recovering Irequired more sleep than mostUniversity of Chicago students. I hadless time to study. But unlike mostPlayboy Magazine is planning toreturn to Northwestern University,and the Women’s Coalition is planningto protest.Jeff Cohen, senior editor ofPlayboy, says that discussion for thenext Women of the Big Ten pictorialhas begun. The campus visits becamean annual event seven years ago, andCohen says, “We got the bestresponse” from the Big 10 issue, sothey’ve decided to come back.* * * students I gained more strengthtowards the end of the quarter.”Becky is current a sophomore in theCollege. She is enthusiastic about herscience classes. “They are a lot ofwork but really good classes,” shereports.When not studying Becky spendsher free time at the Hillel where sheis actively involved in Students forIsrael and regularly attends Fridaynight dinners. She also works at Hillelas a librarian.Last May, Becky accompanied 80children on a Dream Flight to DisneyWorld. It was sponsored byOne-Step-At-A-Time, a nationalorganization that provides childrenwith cancer an opportunity to traveland have fun. This summer she wantsto work as a counselor for a cancercamp for children at Lake Geneva.The doctors say the tumor iscompletely gone now. However,Becky still requires follow-up tests.Every month blood tests are takenand every two months X-rays aretaken.About donating blood, Becky says,“There are always grown-ups andchildren who need blood transfusionfor many reasons. I am very gratefulto the people who donated blood forme and only regret that I cannot giveblood myself.”The University of Pennsylvania isimplementing a new policy requiringforeign students to pay tuition inadvance if their education is beingpaid for by unstable foreigngovernments.The new rules include four criteriato identify troublesome countries.International Programs DirectorJoyce Randolph says that studentsfrom Iran and Nigeria have haddifficulty getting the money promisedthem from their governments.Maroon—Friday, February 10, 1984WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDSIs A Good 5$ CopyFull service copy center,where we do the work for you.Decent paper selection forresumes, dissertations, or justmodest handout flyers.

Inthe past, the International Student Ser¬vices Office has referred students to In¬tensive English courses in Chicagoarea Colleges. This is seldom an idealsolution, however, since tuition ischarged for the courses, they takeplace off campus, and the courses aretime-consuming, usually meeting fivetimes a week. A further complication isthe requirement that foreign studentsbe registered full-time in order tomaintain their visas. Accommodationscan sometimes be made for students, ifthe need is severe enough. In additionto the option of intensive languagestudy at another Chicago area school,other possibilities are available: pri¬vate tutors, and programs in Englishas a Second Language provided atCrossroads International StudentCenter and through the Blue Gar¬goyle.Effective with the Winter Quarter,however, a new and attractive option isopen to foreign students concernedwith their language proficiency.

Kebliswas unopposed in his bid for the seat.“I was there personally when I heardone of the poll watchers tell people howto write in another candidate’s namefor my race,” Keblis said. “Apparentlyshe (the poll watcher) didn’t know whoI was.” According to Tim Wong, SGvice-president and election committeechair, however, Keblis has filed nofinal complaint.Daniel Stafford, who was the otherpoll watcher present, said that his col¬league “made some off-hand state¬ments which could be interpreted aspoliticking.” Stafford said that thestatements were “not overt,” and hefelt “they were not made in a waywhich can be considered as obvious po¬liticking.”Stafford also said that the other pollwatcher was politicking for passage ofSG’s resolution on the Solomon Amend¬ment. He said the poll watcher “toldpeople she couldn’t understand howanyone could vote against the resolu¬tion.”ki “if he would take politics out of thesystem and involve the citizens andcommunity groups more” in park ad¬ministration.“South Side Forum” plans to airweekly, on WHPK, 88.3-FM, featuringdifferent guests each week on SouthSide politics and government.

Itwas quickly extinguished by the FireDepartment, said Lee Caldwell, Assis¬tant Director of the Security Depart¬ment and Chief of Operations.The fire occurred when the car’sdriver attempted to start the automo¬bile. While trying to start the car, thedriver flooded the engine. After igni¬tion had occurred, the accumulatedgas fumes in both the carburetor andthe engine exploded. At this point, thedriver noticed smoke fumes comingout of the hood of the car. The fire wasthen soon put out.According to Caldwell, this type offire occurs relatively frequently.Malherek to speakSister Mary Malherek of the Maryk-noll order will be speaking about herwork in Central America Sunday at7:30 p.m., in the Ida Noyes Library.Malherek worked in Mexico for severalyears teaching in “upper classschools,” when she decided that thiswas not what she became a Maryknollto do. After studying nursing, shemoved to Guatemala, training peasanthealth care workers in Huehuetenan-go.Around 1978, Sister Malherek says,she noticed that the population’s effortsto bring about change through peaceful means “was being interpreted as com¬munist subversion.” Speaking of thepersecution of the Church in LatinAmerica, Malherek quoted the lateArchbishop Romero — himself assas¬sinated in March 1980 — as saying “It’sa happy day when the Church is finallysharing the lot of the poor.”“It’s a sign that w'e’re standing be¬hind the people,” Malherek said, “Iguess it’s something we can be proudof.” In addition to her own experiences,Malherek will talk about the role of theChurch, the North American religiouswomen murdered in El Salvador in De¬cember, 1980, and the current state ofUS intervention. Malherek’s talk willfollow the film Seeds of Liberty.Zonis to speakMarvin Zonis, associate professor ofbehavioral and social sciences, thecommittee on human development andthe College, will speak on “New Di¬mensions of War and Peace in the Mid¬dle East” at the Woodward Court In¬formal Lecture Discussion-Series at8:30 p.m. Sunday.Zonis, a recipient of the QuantrellAward for Excellence in Undergradu¬ate Teaching, has written extensivelyabout political science, specializingprimarily in conflicts within the MiddleEast.

The dour-faced couple infront of the fafrmhouse is nationally recog¬nized as a portrait of proto-typical Ameri¬cans; simple, good, honest, and hard work¬ing people. However, there is a certainuneasiness in this gritty harmony. I haveonly one question to ask the iconographicduo: where did you hide the bodies?Grant Wood paints calm and lucid night¬mares. Where do these ideas come from?Take the soul of Salvador Dali, cut most ofthe monsters out of his brain, sand off hisostentatious surface, put him in Iowa, andthere you have him, Grant Wood in theflesh. The rhetorical monsters Wood hasleft are subtle ones. He has two main tal¬ents: eulogy and parody. But when thesetwo visions mix in one painting, the resultis disturbing.This, of course, is not the interpretationof the Art Institute, which houses the ex¬hibit “Grant Wood, The Regionalist Vi¬sion.” The theme of the show is that Woodwas a very skilled portrayer of utopianAmerican life. There is an interestingtwenty minute slide show which relatesWood’s works to the time in which theywere created, i.e. the Great Depression.Photographs of the dust bowl and WalkerPercy’s depressing shots are juxtaposedwith the happy and abundant world ofWood’s paintings. The presentationargues that Wood’s vision was an escapefrom the misery around him, that he eulo¬gized the America of the turn-of-the-centu-ry to present a positive and hopeful viewof the country’s rural life.This version of the artist’s intent mightbe explained by the evidence of Wood ascommercial artist, who never saw a mar¬keting technique he didn’t like. He soldevery one of the works he ever paintedexcept for a few that he thought were un¬saleable. Wood knew the value and repu¬tation of his own works well, and judgingby the number of trivial lithographs in the exhibition, was not above exploiting hissituation. Before his instant fame causedby “American Gothic,” his first effortsgraced funeral homes, residences, anddrugstores in Cedar Rapids.Three admittedly lesser efforts whichonce hung in the coffeeshop in the HotelMontrose in Cedar Rapids point out someof the pecularities of his vision. One ofthem, “Farmer With Pigs” (1932), is a typi¬cal rendition of rural life. The iconogra¬phies are simple. The farmer wearsoveralls and gazes out into the blue Amer¬ican future (his honest feet planted firmlyin the ground). He is a perfectly contentself-contained being. But the rendition ofthis mixes bizarre elements into the scene.The farmer’s eyes are blue and blank;they have no pupils. His body is shapelessand malformed. The pigs are similarly car-toonish. They are painted with a lack ofdexterity and pastel color normally seenon greeting cards; the whole effect of thelumpy figures and the washed out palettereminds one of nothing less than the zom¬bies and environment of the movie “Dawnof the Dead.”These effects are intentional. When hewants to, Wood can capture the exactspirit and form of his subject. A pencildrawing entitled “The Booster” is particu¬larly effective; the face of the cigar chomp¬ing conventioneer is strinkingly sleazyand lurid, but it still retains some of theboyish enthusiasm of “our side” partisanpolitics.The peculiarity of Wood’s deliberate ar¬tistic effects may have as much to do withWood’s special techniques as with hissense of parody. Wood conceives of hisworks in terms of independent wholeforms harmoniously thrown together, sortof an artistic quilt. This is best seen in hislandscape painting. Forms (usually massesof land) of different color and texture arestuck together separated only by strongdark lines. These lines give each shape itsown integrity and space. The overall ef-continued on page 4 Grant Wood, Victorian Survival, 1931NAVA'S EL NORTEby Stephanie BaconThe response to Gregory Nava’s El Nortehas been brusque and vehement; it hasbeen condemned as simplistic, melodra¬matic, overdirected, and worst of all, pre¬tentious. Popular criticism, however, mustbe read with attention to the fact that pre¬tention is a blanket term for any ambitionthat does not meet with critical approval.El Norte's chief ambition is to fuse art andpolitics in a way that will bring power toeach. It concerns the story of a Guatama-fan brother and sister, Enrique and Rosa,who are compelled by political persecutionto leave their native village and emigrateillegally into the United States.Their persecution, which takes the formof their mother’s disappearance and fa¬ther’s decapitation, is a realistic reflectionof the situation in many Latin Americancountries; in this the film is undoubtedlypolitical. The film is very reserved in it’spolitics, however, because it does not in¬dict the United States for its role in sup¬ porting the oppressive and inhumane gov¬ernments of these countries.Instead, Nava chooses to weave politicsinto a fable-like story that does not in¬dulge itself in overstatement or dogma.One would suppose that his aim was toavoid the spontaneous rejection that oftenawaits “political film” when it is distribut¬ed through popular film channels. But hedoes not seem to have succeeded in con¬vincing anyone that the film is valid asanything other than a political statement.Furthermore, these are politics that al¬most ho one wants to be aware of or in¬volved in, because they are simply toopainful for most people to consider. It isfar easier for Americans to imagine that“In Latin America the United States con¬tinues to be a key force in preserving andencouraging democracy” (Chicago Specta¬tor, 2/6/84) than to acknowledge the factthat our taxes are paying for the murderand torture of Latin American civilians,the training and equipping of deathsquads, the complete eradication of native South American cultures, and the estab¬lishment and continued support of totali¬tarian and facistic governments that donot represent in any way the choice or theinterests of the people. It is not less thanobscene that in a priveledged and suppo¬sedly enlightened country like our own,people choose to be apathetic or resistantto these realities, which can be unequivo¬cally documented by international andnon-partisan agencies such as the UnitedNations and Amnesty International.Apparently the acknowledgement ofthese political realities is repugnant to ourcritics, even when presented in a fair andnon-accusatory light. It must be repug¬nant, because the art and skill of the filmis of a caliber much higher than that whichoften merits great critical acclaim. Thefilm is an artistic accomplishment, and forthis it is worthy of recognition.The imagery of the film is as beautifuland memorable as that of any film it mightbe compared to. Certain scenes in Rosaand Enrique’s native Guatamalan village,before their expulsion and later in dreamsequences, are remarkable for their cul¬tural insight as well as for their grace andvitality. The beauty of these initial scenesbegins the viewer s intimate involvementand sympathy with the protagonists. Theviewer cannot help but become immersed in the epic quality of the story as the pro¬tagonists venture through Mexico and fi¬nally into the world of illegal immigrantsin the southwestern United States. Thefinal events of the film give it the air of atragic parable, yet the viewer is deniedany distinct resolution that could makesense of this tragedy. The viewer mighttry to relate the story of these charactersto the Gensis parable of the fall from inno¬cence, but these initiates never lose their“innocence”, or purity of will, but onlytheir home, and this they lose through ex¬ternal injustice. Nava refrains until thelast from passing judgement upon UnitedStates policies or gringo attitudestowards immigrants and immigration; hegive us no scapegoat and no channel forour frustration with this story. It is anemotionally difficult situation to grapplewith, and Nava knows that he makes hispoint most effectively by allowing us tohave difficulty in dealing with it.The production and acting of this filmare so seamless as to be completely incon¬spicuous. The dialogue, in subtitles, is sim¬ple and poignant, and duly respectful ofthe futility of literal translation. El Norteis a valid political statement and a power¬ful piece of art. It is no minor film, and itought to be seen.

In the lasttwenty years, however, the Church’srole has begun to change, taking an"option for the poor,” as the LatinAmerican Bishops have called it. TheChurch's new commitment to thepoor has led the powerful sectors,which the Church once supported, tobrand the Church as communist.In December 1980, this processwas brought closer to American con¬sciousness when three United Statesnuns and a lay worker were mur¬dered by the Salvadoran SecurityForces, which are supported by theUnited States government. Seeds ofLiberty is a film about these fourwomen. It was made by the Maryk-noll order, of which they weremembers, and while it focuses onthese four women, it never loosessight o* the larger issue. Each yearthousands of Salvadorans suffer thesame fate as these four women.Seeds of Liberty is about the Salva¬doran people, and about four NorthAmerican women who were notafraid to share their fate SisterMary Malherek, who was a Maryk-noll Missionary in Central Americacontinued on page 4FILMStrange Brew (Dave Thomas and RickMoranis, 1983): Having somethingto do with Hamlet and less-than-premium Canadian beers, StrangeBrew is certainly the dumbest come¬dy of 1983, but also one of the fun¬niest, if your tastes run towardsudsy humor, or if you’re susceptibleto just-plain-silly fun.

The play is setin the late nineteenth century Swe¬den. The action takes place in andaround a well-to-do, seemingly re¬spectable home which contains abevy of liars and manipulators.Their lives are knotted in an intri¬cate tangle of passion, greed, andpretense. The characters seem toexist in a morphine induced haze;old wounds are opened up, new onesare inflicted, but nobody feels pain.What they experience is the dull,boundless acfie of wondering whythey cannot feel. Written at the endof Strindberg’s unhappy life, theplay introduced techniques of exag¬gerating and distorting normalhuman behavior. These techniquesare the roots of Expressionism,whose profound influence on moderndrama stands in opposition to the in¬fluence of Ibsen’s Naturalism.

His darkeningof landscapes makes their color jump rightout of the painting, and gives these worksa lushness that seems too good to be true.Of course this is part of the problem: theyare too surreal to be Iowa, and this de¬tracts somewhat from their effect.The one completely realized part ofWood’s vision is parody. Wood is one ofthe best with a slowly-twisting skewer. Adevastating example of this is “ParsonWeems’ Fable.” The benevolent parsonturns aside a cherry-laden curtain to pres¬ent the famous Washington boyhoodcherry tree myth. The figure of ‘boyGeorge’ as he admits his guilt, is hilarious.He has the body shape of a grown man, butis only two feet tall. His head is obviouslytaken from the picture on the one dollarbill. The smug judgement of the parson andthe President-in-embryo deliciously mocksthe all-too innocent myth.Wood’s second most famous painting“Daughters of the American Revolution”is also a sharp attack on American imagesand traditions. Juxtaposed in front of thevibrant and weJ known pose of Washing¬ton crossing the Delaware are the por¬traits of three staid and pompousmembers of the D.A.R. Their slightlydreamy and insipid faces are painted al¬most out of focus, and look flat and car-toonish in comparison to their active hero.The antithetical values of the two images,the hero and the people who supposedlyrevere his qualities are lethally ironic.This painting adds more zombies to Wood’s collection. What is even more dis¬turbing is that the zombies themselvesseem to like their plight (their life in thepaintings). Their friendly and open two-dimensional faces proclaim their content¬ment within their calm madness.Already in these paintings, one sees amixing of elements; the portrayal of wellknown legends, and the wry humor thatundermines them. This doesn’t mean thatWood was primitivising his subjects orpaintings. He was an artist with a point tomake. When he posed his dentist and hissister in front of a farmhouse to create“American Gothic,” he wanted to portraya typical old time farmer and his spinsterdaughter (not a husband and wife). Thecompositon and harmony of the paintingare exquisite. But implicit in the work isthe iconographic status of the two figures.Wood paints about an idealized past inthis case, and so his characters are as muchattached to that idea as they are to theirenvironment in the work. They are a paro¬dy of themselves because they are dated,rather than being attached to an idea orimage which could change or grow. Thus,Wood’s eulogizing must also be a parody,and the skewed vision of the mix of thesetwo elements comes into being.The best painting in the show and themost powerful example of Wood’s strangevision is “Death on the Ridge Road.” Thescene is a curved road, where a long butugly and squat black limosine passes by anold Model-T type car (presumably a farm¬er’s), but is out of control and about tocrash into a red truck which is coming in theopposite direction. Wood lets his horrificvision loose here, and the immediacy ofthe situation doesn’t let his editorial pointbe undermined. The drunken lines of theroad and the telephone wires add to theterrifying silent speed of the vehicles. TheGrant Wood, Midnight Ride of Pool Revere, 1931 Grant Wood, American Gothic, 1930truck and limosine are painted plain redand black respectively; deadly child’stoys. The paint-by-numbers coloring isechoed by the painting’s content: Wooddoesn’t show the drivers, just the cars. Theimages all conform to one point, that deathhere is just a game. In creating his ownimages Wood synthesizes a unified horrificimage, instead of making a copy of an¬other image which only leads to a deathlyblandness.Perhaps what makes all of Wood's icono¬graphic images disturbing is their lastingpower. Although Wood’s subjects may lookdead, their images and ideas will keep onliving even in that abbreviated form.Their very self-absorbtion is aperpetuat-ing mechanism, and their lack of touch withreality makes them menacing figures.Wood may be able to satirize the D.A.R.,but with or without his parody, they willgo on in their out-of-focus contentment andmeddle in our lives. Is the couple in"American Gothic” evil? Perhaps not, buttheir power is that no matter how two¬ dimensional they are, they are icons whowill outlive their detractors (quick, who isour President now?).This last icon and wife Nancy are alsopart of the show. Showing a pretty goodsense of institutional humor, the Art Insti¬tute put up a wall of American Gothic paro¬dies right outside the exhibit. The newversions of the painting include the Rea¬gans, George Wallace and a black womancivil rights leader, and the Ms. magazinedrag version, all as the happy old couple.On other magazine covers the real McCoysexperience the 60’s, live the 70’s, and dis¬cover (gasp) the health craze. One of theproblems with the show is the lack of gal¬lery space it has, and so crowds formaround the most interesting works. SinceWood’s output in his lifetime was fairlysmall, it only takes a pleasant hour or twoto stroll through the show. Of course youcan be unadventurous and stay at the U ofC and take in American Pseudo-Gothic,but that regionalist vision we unfortuna¬tely know all too well, yes?continued from page 3for ten years, will be speaking afterthe film.

Robert Lostutterenjoys a unique position in the Chi¬cago art community, in which bothhis accomplishment and his indepen¬dent vision are highly valued. Hiswork is linked to that of his imagistpeers in both common sources of im¬agery and the rigorous control oftechnique. Yet the work is set apartby its intensity and the very thor¬oughness of his explorations. Sur¬realist inspirations devolve on po¬tent icons and psychodramas. Thehuman figure, at the center of hiswork, undergoes transmutation,masking, and ingrafting with plant,fish, and bird forms, that render thehuman image transfigured — atonce elevated in a paradisialbeauty and immersed in an earthlyvoluptuousness.

FREE.—Len KleknerFive Installations Those turned off bythe current Renaissance Society andSmart shows might profitably dropby the Art Center, where serious¬ness is approached via play. Rebec¬ca Brown’s “Funhouse’’ incorporatesflashing signs, a darkened room, awobbly seat, and a short film of aroller coaster ride. It’s not scary,but a parody of the experience ofchoosing to be scared. Like Brown,Aristotle Georgiades has construct¬ed a small room, but his is a lightand open triangle. Inside, a rockingchair with two seats — one high andfacing forward; the other low andfacing backward — is situated be¬tween a timer-controlled fan blow¬ ing in through a window and, oppo¬site the fan, a metronome's constantticking. These basics and certainsmaller details suggest a cosmictheme, but the point is diffuserather than heavy-handed and,again, amusing. The other three ar¬tists have opened out to the galleryspace. Jayne Hileman's wooden tab¬leau, "If We Never Cut LumberWould We Have Park Benches?”, isan arrangement of more or less dis¬crete cityscape objects that, takentogether, propose an answer like,"No, and we wouldn’t need them ei¬ther.” The grace here is not tangi¬ble, but still sensible: the stodgyurban world built of a nature some¬how more humane. Jin Soo Kim's“Environment D” makes the samejuxtaposition, but reverses theorder. She compiles bits of cast-offculture — smashed and rusted cans,pipes; in a word, junk — as though itwere forest or jungle. That this isthe show's most intuitive piece doesnot mean it is the least thoughtful.Finally, about Fred Klessig’s unti¬tled piece, composed of five or so in¬dividually titled pieces, the less saidthe better. If the artist wants tomake a mess, he should look at "En¬vironment D”; or if he wants to joke,at any of the other three. Thru Feb18 at the Hyde Park Art Center,1701 E 53rd.

It is frightening how emptythese once obviously highly chargedimages now hang, blank as the eyes of theSleeping Medusa. They exist as a sober¬ing reminder of the perils of programma¬tic art, a statement that stands in bittercounterpoint to much of the art of the re¬cent past. These cliche, overwroughtimages are silent today for precisely thesame reason that they spoke so loudly totheir contemporaries: they work within asystem.BELGIAN AVANT-GARDE RETROSPECTIVEby Jonathan KatzFernand Khnopff is not exactly a house¬hold name, even among art historians.And yet, as a central figure inthe Symbo¬list movement of the end of the nineteenthcentury, he is, at least historically, a majorartist. Symbolism was as much a literaryas an artistic movement, and Khnopff’swork is intimately tied to that of such lit¬erary figures as Stephen Malarme. In¬deed, Khnopff illustrated much Symbolistliterature. But what ties the artistic andthe literary wings of the movement to¬gether is their common attempt to invokesuch timeless themes as love, sex, death,etc. through the creation of unusuallypacked, sometimes mystical, sometimesjarring, but always evocative imagery.The exhibition of Khnopff’s work at theSmart Gallery is rather small — there arefew major paintings, and the studies thatmake up the bulk of the show should notbe understood as constituting an ade¬quate summa of this artist’s work. Still, itis possible to draw some general conclu¬sions, the most general being that theseworks demand a context. This is the fateof much didactic art. Khnopff’s paintingsare like African ritual masks, admired andcontemplated for their aesthetic appeal,with no thought to their original purposeor function. And as contextless objectsthey come up short.Art that seeks to evoke some presencebeyond its own is not new. In fact, somemay argue that this desire to evoke is themotive force behind the making of art.There are Renaissance alter pieces thatbespeak a near perfect piety, and otherlater paintings that stand in search of the’’sublime”. Modern painting, somewhatmore catholic, is as varied as the possibili¬ties of our modern world.Within this time honored tradition, Fer¬nand Khnopff made symbols — sleepingMedusas, harpy-like falcons, women re¬flected in water or mirrors. The phenome¬nology and history of symbolism is quitecomplex. But I, as a twentieth centuryviewer, shrink from Khnopff’s presump¬tions of the general and universal force ofhis symbols. Most of these works evokenothing but a past age; they are written ina now silent tongue, the vocabulary asforeign as it is empty. But this is no re¬joinder to Jung, no denial of the possibilityof symbolic force. Painters from Goya toGauguin have used symbolism powerfully.It can work in painting as long as it re¬mains a kind of symbolism innate to paint¬ing. If a symbol is to survive its context, itmust be pictorial, not, or not merely, liter¬ary.And here we come to the problem withmuch of Khnopff’s work. His symbols maysucceed as literary conceits, but as paint¬ings they are largely without force. WhenKhnopff paints a Sapho, one can see, as itwere, the hands of the puppeteer, or atleast the strings of the marionette. Onesenses that he is making a play for one'ssensibility, as if to say, “Look, this is anevocative painting.” And one reacts asone would to an overly made-up man orwoman — with indulgent acceptance orslight repugnance, but certainly neverwith conviction. In either case it shows its intentions all too clearly on its face.Khnopff’s lesser work evokes nothingmore than itself. It is, as it were, the noun“symbol”, a totem, and nothing further orbeyond.The reasons for this failure are mani¬fold. In today’s world, Khnopff’s heavy-lidded eyes, his pouting mouths, lookcliche, or worse, “symbolic”. Much of thework is so extravagantly painted as torivet attention to the surface of the paper,to the technique and execution, forbiddingentrance any further beyond. And hisvery real sense of their execution miti¬gates their success as unreal, otherworld¬ly images. But most importantly, we lackthe conventions today to read these worksand since, to be understood, they must beread, they consequently stand less as liv¬ing painting than as a kind of hieroglyph¬ic, relics of another age and conceptualsystem.Where Khnopff succeeds in being evoca¬tive, he succeeds as a painter. These suc¬cessful works, such as De I'animalite or thel»tar, 1888 portrait of his sister, demand a pictorial,not a literary reading. Their spacial ambi¬guities, painterly finesse, mark them ascommanding pictorial works. And theyhold to an inner necessity — like the muchstronger work of Edvard Munch — thatcompels conviction.The walls of the Smart Gallery are hungL'encens, 1898TRILLS AND CHILLSby Jamie AlienThe program directors at Orchestra Hallreally know their audience. They knowthat concert subscribers come to their hal¬lowed auditorium to enjoy those “perfect”performances of Haydn and Beethoventhat have made the CSO famous. Perfor¬mances which have made them one of themost recorded orchestras in the world. Butunfortunately, this knowledge is a mixedblessing, as was seen in last weekend'sperformances. To be considered an activeforce in the musical world of today, andnot just a repertory company of early clas¬sics, major orchestras such as the CSO, andtheir directors, must provide an atmo¬sphere in which twentieth century musicfrom every decade receives the attentionand respectful interpretation that it de¬serves for meaningful judgment. For thisreason, one will occasionally see a Webernor a Ligeti (pronounced with emphasis onthe first syllable) piece scheduled for per¬formance at a subscription concert, as I didlast Friday and Saturday. Unfortunately,it seems that principal guest conductor,Claudio Abbado, knowing that he wasn'tplaying them to the most sympathetic ofaudiences, paid so much attention to pres¬enting these two works (Webern’s SixPieces for Orchestra and Ligeti's Ramifica¬tions) in their best possible light, that heshort changed the earlier works, and seemed to take their crowd-pleasing abili¬ty for granted instead of approachingthem with the creative fervor and detailedprecision they deserve.The first piece on the program was SixPieces, played in its original 1909 versionfor full orchestra (most performances of ittoday are in the revised 1928 version fora much smaller orchestra). The two majorelements working in this piece are that oftone color as a basis for structure andwhat is known as Klangfarbenmelodie.The first means that the ever changing in¬strumental color and texture (i.e. the puresounds that you hear) are used as Beetho¬ven might use a theme in a sonata — togive the piece both an identifiable frame¬work and an overall coherence. The secondis simply a division of the notes of the mel¬ody among various instruments in the or¬chestra, so that even the repetition of onenote may sound like a melody by the wayit is tossed around from instrument to in¬strument. I found the CSO’s interpretationof this unconventional work to be verymoving. The subtle changes in color anddynamics, as well as the adventurous in¬strumentation, created a very magical at¬mosphere, making the listener feel both in¬volved in each piece and interested inwhere it was going. The third piece, enti¬tled "Langsam: marcia funebre”, wasespecially effective in taking me out of myseat and into a world of quiet but intense emotions. In fact, it was so powerful thatwhen, during a key moment in which thelow roll of a bass drum was vibrating theentire hall, a woman a few seats to myright loudly whispered “I can't hear ’em”,it hardly phased me.Mozart’s only existing bassoon concerto(K.191), on the other hand, was disap¬pointingly little more than an uninspiredand generic sounding rendition of an un¬derstandably rarely performed piece. Thestrings, which make up almost all of the or¬chestra in this piece, were often late intheir entrances, and Willard Elliot, despitehis seemingly effortless execution of somevery difficult passages for solo bassoonwas uneven and sloppy in many of his fre¬quently occurring trills.In contrast, a terrific sense of suspensewas created in the third piece on the pro¬gram (Ramifications, written by the Hun¬garian born Gyorgy Ligeti in 1969). Bycreating the “curtain of sound" that Ligetiis so famous for, one was made aware ofevery little change that took place onstage. The slightest alteration in texture,timbre or intensity became as importantas the most climactic of phrases in aWagner opera. And the extremely, subtlegame of question and answer between dif¬ferent groups of strings provided a sourceof constant fascination for the attentivelistener. True to form, the woman in frontof me leaned over to her neighbor duringthis piece and, referring to the energeticMr. Abbado, said: “Watch how his hairbounces.”After the intermission, in which morethan a few members of the audience wereupset because they weren’t "left withsomething thev could hum” on the wav tn the bar, the CSO attempted to bring Men¬delssohn’s Reformation Symphony (a sym¬phony in which almost a dozen hymn melo¬dies are integrated, coincidentally) to life.But both the brass and the high strings,easily the two most important sections inthe piece, failed to give this wonderfulsymphony the performance it deserves.One was constantly being jilted by the bro¬ken entrances of the brass which, on thewhole, just couldn’t provide the supportneeded to lift this piece off the ground. Thestring section sounded as if they hadplayed the piece so many hundreds oftimes that its incredibly uplifting passagescame across as well practiced, but lackingin vitality. It must be pointed out that boththe lower strings and the woodwinds weredoing their best to keep the piece afloatwith genuine energy and lovely coloring.Unfortunately, neither of them play aprominent enough role in the piece tomake a lasting difference.Finally, one must give Mr. Abbado creditfor displaying an incredible amount of con¬fidence and talent by conducting the entireconcert without a score. This was most im¬pressive in the Ligeti, where there is al¬most nothing whatsoever for a conductorto hang his hat on, as there is in a piecewhere melody plays a more central role.Although the audience (which was not anatypical classical music audience for Chica¬go, I’m afraid to say) left something to bedesired, and the music of Mozart and Men¬delssohn did not receive the thoughtful in¬terpretation expected of a world class or¬chestra, I am happy to see that modernmusic is getting a fair shake at Orchestrahall— even if it is for all the wrong rea¬sonsTHE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY.

When the shudders passShe opens her sweat greased eyes and stares up at me, there, staring,Shivering as pit sweat slides down, clammy palms clenched into little fists;She smiles. Holding him still, drained of every tension, she smiles up at me.I try to cry out, suck air dryly, turn and run fitfully,Falling, biting sand, staggering up and hugging my mother's thin tanless body.You shift beneath me and I wake to watch the streak of sand fall from your cheek.I lift my hand and brush away that stray strand of your curling bangs.I know when you wake I will ask you where you have been, with what secrets,And you will smile again, and lie, "with you...with you rolling in the sand."A*.'LEE MARVIN WOULD DO ANYTHING TO GET TO BRUNCH-IE® HOW ABOUT YOU?Grey City Brunch is so excitingI can't imagine not going!":WE DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUAND WE MISS YOU—THE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10. 1984—7'gmz wawippr mmMmmmmma uniqueopportunityforMath: Majors/Minors The toughest jobyou II ever love■oFor you and the world itself, As a Peace Corps volun¬teer, you can put your degree to work at a challeng¬ing, demanding and unique opportunity.

Hyde ParkAwe-inspiring NFL defeat reveals God’s western rootsTo the editor:Upon arriving at the University ofChicago, I was completely unpreparedfor what was in store for me. Comingfrom a Southern California suburb, ad¬justing to the -50°F weather, and theCollege itself posed some difficulties,but these experiences were oversha¬dowed by my introduction to a fantas¬tic new culture previously unknown tome. I am speaking of course, of “themost hideous creatures to threaten thestreets of Hyde Park...those (crea¬tures) from Washington, DC and vicin¬ity.”I can’t commend Sir Grammichenough for his contribution toward ex¬posing DC and vicinity for what it real¬ly is, but I don’t believe he has ade¬quately grasped the full meaning ofwhat he has touched upon. Let me putit this way: when Sir Grammich men¬tions Washington, DC and vicinity,what immediately springs to my mindis the area that encompasses the statesthat make up one of the great sewers ofthe world — the East Coast of Ameri¬ca.In describing DC and vicinity (whichI will now refer to as the East Coast),R. Miller failed to include the keywords from the immortal lines of SirGrammich’s article — arrogant andoverbearing. R. Miller also grosslymisinterpreted the meaning of theterm “self-important.” The explana¬tion for all this is simple: “East Coast¬ers” are more arrogant, overbearing,and less important than other peoplefrom other regions of the country. NowI realize it is not fair to generalizeabout such a large but unimportantarea such as the East Coast. Admitted¬ly, there are some very kind, humblepeople that live on the East Coast — Ibelieve the word “mutations” is the ap¬propriate term used in modern gene¬tics for such a phenomenon.After reading this much, many peo¬ple will no doubt begin to feel that I’mready to criticize anyone that’s not from the West Coast. This is not true. Ihappen to like Midwesterners a greatdeal, as they basically appear to bekind, considerate, God-fearing peoplewhom I have the utmost respect for.So it is only natural that I would beincensed with R. Miller’s unfounded at¬tack upon an “uncultured Chicago.”Let us not forget that Chicago is thehome of the Art Institute, perhaps thegreatest collection of Impressionistpaintings on the planet. It is also thehome of Sir Georg Solti and the Chica¬go Symphony Orchestra, one of thegreatest orchestras in the world, and certainly the finest the United Stateshas to offer. It is obvious when one con¬siders the facts rationally, R. Miller’sperfectly ludicrous picture of Chicagohe so myopically attempted to createlooks as foolish as the Redskins did inSuper Bowl XVIII.Which brings me to my final point.As everyone has now heard for theumpteenth time, the Washington Red¬skins suffered the most humiliating de¬feat in Super Bowl History, 38-9. As themagnificent, awe-inspiring Los An¬geles Raiders pounded the Redskinsinto the dirt, it became apparent this game would take on great symbolicmeaning that would eventually tran¬scend the universe. This was not sim¬ply the Raiders vs. the ’Skins, this wasEast vs. West — the great war (whichturned into a spectacular slaughter)between the coasts. In the end it wasinevitable that the Raiders, the under¬dogs, the mavericks of the NFL — theREAL America’s team — should pre¬vail. For Super XVIII was not just agame. It was a victory for God.John IwanagaFirst-year student in the CollegeMindlessness is not my favorite cause(The following is an open letter toTed Strom and John Conlon.)Every time I read a Maroon I findsomebody’s letter bitching about theStudent Government Finance Commit¬tee (SGFC). The January 27th issuehad back-to-back letters from TedStrom of the Committee on Arms Con¬trol and Disarmament (CACD) andJohn Conlon of the infamous CAUSE,whose full name escapes me.Most of the letters I’ve read, with theexception of Conlon’s, split their timebetween advertising their views andbemoaning the Finance Committee’sunreasonableness.The constitutional clause that every¬one is tripping over is one that absolves the SGFC from having to fund any andevery group that wanders by, yet keepscensorial power out of the FinanceCommittee’s hands. The clause is in¬valuable by allowing some groups toget funds while keeping a reasonablelimit on how many groups will be eligi¬ble.An example will help clarify this.Suppose the Young Nazis were to askfor funding. The SGFC can deny themfunds on one of two grounds. (1) The Fi¬nance Committee does not like theYoung Nazis. Hardly surprising; few ofus would. But what about the LiberalDemocrats? The Radical Left? ThePeople’s Revolutionary Front-End Sus¬pension? Where would CAUSE haveSpectator sentencedTo the editor:After reading the comment of TheSpectator’s editorial editor that“you’ve got to realize that...(our pro¬spectus) was written with two potentialconservative sources of money inmind, and that flavored it,” and hisjustification of the author of the pro¬spectus’s choice of words as “whetheror not it’s true” students commonly hold such perceptions, in addition tothe not-so-accurate wording of thenewspaper’s fundraising letter and thepublisher’s comment that “it doesn’tmatter what you’ve...read” anyway,I’m sure the student body w as anxious¬ly awaiting the first issue of a publica¬tion that reflects such worthy journa¬listic standards.D. Brownstein them draw the line? Either the SGFCgives money to everybody, or they actas censors. Or, (2), the Committee hasand holds to a policy of funding groupsthat seek to inform rather than per¬suade students. That would mean amaximum of one group on foreign poli¬cy rather than one for each issue. Thisgroup would give real information onall aspects of each issue it examined.This would keep my money from beingspent on efforts to indoctrinate me,confuse me, or lie to me.CAUSE’S outright opposition to USpresence in El Salvador, and CACD’spromotion of what is also clearly a po¬litical opinion, disqualify both of themunder any interpretation of the SGFC’soperational limits. The hypocrisy thatwould ask for funds for one opinion yetdeny funds to other opinions (StudentsFavoring a Pre-emptive Strike, let’ssay) is far more intolerable than theproposition that these opinionatedgroups look elsewhere for support.

February 10, 1984—13spoiler in conference, shock Beloit, 55-53Men’s hoops,By Frank LubyClutch free throws in the final 30 sec¬onds by Mike Clifford and Rob Omie-cinski allowed Chicago to hold off a Be¬loit comeback and gave the Maroonsmen’s varsity basketball team a 55-53victory over the conference leadingBuccaneers Tuesday night at the FieldHouse.A large, loud crowd cheered theMaroons — clearly the spoilers in thefive team conference race — to theirsixth victory in their last seven outings,all within the conference. Chicago goesto 6-4 (9-7 overall), while Beloit falls to8-2, (13-7 overall).After Beloit forward Tom Snapp tiedthe game at 51 with 37 seconds left, Chi¬cago entered its four corners stall to setup for a final shot, but Mike Clintonfouled Clifford and sent the freshmanguard to the line with 23 seconds left.Clifford sank both free throws to givethe Maroons a 53-51 advantage.Beloit rushed the ball upcourt, andafter a few seconds Clinton got free fora jumper at the foul line. He missed theshot, and after a scramble Omiecinskicame away with the rebound and gotfouled with ten seconds left.Omiecinski’s two free throws boostedthe lead to four points, and Beloit’sEvans Papanikolaou scored an uncon¬tested lay-up with four seconds left toaccount for the final score.“We were looking for Snapp on thatplay,” said Beloit head coach Bill Nap-ton. “But Clinton had a good shot andhe missed it.” Beloit used full-court pressure andthe hot shooting cf guard Marc Ander¬son (14 points on 7-for-8 shooting in thesecond half) to surge back from a 32-23halftime deficit. The margin justproved too much to overcome, though,as Chicago countered the Buccaneerswith baskets when they had to, andnever let Beloit gain the lead.“Patience in crucial situations,” saidMaroons assistant coach Jim Harge-sheimer in answer to why his team han¬dled the Beloit comeback. “We didn’tpanic.”Maroon guard Rob Omiecinski (16pts.) recovers a loose ball, savedby John Froschauer (far right).Omiecinski is guarded by Beloit’sMarc Anderson. A baseline jumper by Clinton and alay-up by Anderson brought Beloit towithin three, 40-37, and forced Chicagoto call timeout with 8:01 left. After thetimeout, Anderson stole a Dave Wittpass and raced down court for an easylay-up, cutting the lead to one.Omiecinski became almost as hot asAnderson, though, as he scored Chica¬go’s next six points on outside bankshots, keeping Beloit at bay until An¬derson grabbed a long rebound andbroke away for another hoop to make it48-46 Chicago with 3:40 left. The Bucca¬neers received a potential break with4:48 left, when Maroon center Keith Li¬bert drew his fourth foul. He stayed inthe game, however, and remained ef¬fective. “He knows when to lay off,”said Hargesheimer. “At that point youcan’t take a two-time All-Conferenceplayer out of the game.”Chicago’s biggest basket of the gamecame with two minutes left. ForwardNick Meriggioli (nine points, eight re¬bounds) took a feed outside from Omie¬cinski, drew a foul on Beloit’s MikeTurbin, and scored. He completed thethree point play and gave the Maroonsa 51-46 advantage.Beloit drew to within two on an An¬derson basket and a Snapp free throw,before Snapp’s basket tied the score at51.Quick Start“We didn’t come to play the first tenminutes of the game,” said Lapton.“We tried to take shots that just weren’t there.”After playing to a 4-4 tie after fourminutes, Beloit scored just one basketin the next six minutes, as they had tro¬uble working the ball inside, andcouldn’t free Clinton or Snapp up high.In the meantime Chicago executed itsoffense to perfection, erupting to an18-7 lead with 9:32 left in the game.Meriggioli scored four points and hadtwo assists, each Maroon starterscored at least one basket, Keith Libertchipped in six points, including a slamdunk after stealing the ball at half¬court.The lead peaked with 4:40 left on aturnaround jumper by Witt, whichmade the score 26-13.Beloit showed some hustle towardthe end of the half, especially on de¬fense, and scored six of the last eightpoints in the half. A basket by Snapp atthe buzzer sent Beloit to the lockerroom down by nine, 32-23.Beloit unleashed its full court pres¬sure in the second half, and as theycame back into the game both benchesand the crowd, which grew all gameand reached a total of few hundred bythe end, got involved vocally.Anderson and Omiecinski led allscorers with 16 points, while Libert had14 and Clinton 12. Snapp contributed 11and grabbed five rebounds.The Maroons travel to Ripon Collegetomorrow to face the Redmen, who arecurrently 6-4 in the conference as well,after losing to Lake Forest yesterday.The Third String —Olympic Games just not the same in ’84—Bus for St. Norbert cancelledYes, the thrill has gone out of the Olympics, as faras I am concerned. When Canada handed the UnitedStates’ Olympic hockey team a 4-2 defeat in the open¬ing game of the round-robin hockey competition, theexcitement seemed to suddenly disappear. While theOlympic Games at Sarajevo are only a few days old,they have already lost the charm of 1980.For one thing, the Olympics are taking place inYugoslavia, so all the events are shown via tapedelay. That means that no matter how hard you tryto isolate yourself from the news of the games, some¬one inevitably spoils it for you. I personally spent thewhole day of the hockey game in my own little new¬sless world, trying my best to avoid any possible re¬ports of the game. However, despite my efforts, Iknew the final score before the game even started.But, if you are one of the many who decided not towatch the game because you knew the final score, letme tell you, you didn’t miss much. You knew some¬thing was afoul when Canada blew past US goal-tender Mark Behrend at the 27 second mark of theopening period. A fluke, right? Well, you would havethought so, the way the first quarter was going. TheAmericans were clearly dominant in the opening 20minutes, but just couldn’t reach the back of the net —a theme which prevailed most of the game.What an incredible contrast to the 1980 games. TheAmericans always seemed to be able to dominate thescoring, even if they weren’t able to dominate theplay on the ice. And there was always a chance thatif they were behind, they could somehow get back inthe game. It just doesn’t look like that’s going to bethe case in 1984.Far and away the most noticeable absence fromTuesday night’s (Tuesday afternoon? Mondaynight? Whatever it is on tape delay) contest was theLake Placid, let’s-go-hog-wild-with-patriotism, par¬tisan USA crowd. Who can forget (will Jim “Do youbelieve in miracles?” McKay ever let us forget...)the choruses of “U-S-A” that resounded through theOlympic arena in 1980? Only a trace of that stills re¬mains among the Sarajevo crowd — you could hearthe chanting, but it just wasn’t the same. It was al¬most as if we weren’t meant to win the gold withoutthe throngs of cheers.Tuesday’s loss not only was depressing, but it alsomakes it next to impossible for the US to advance tothe gold medal (final four) tournament. Even if theywin the rest of their games, they still have an outsidechance of missing out on the final four, if Canada tiesanother one-loss team. But then again, they stillhave to skate by the Swedes and the Czechs, and thatis no easy task.But the mere fact that the US has already beenbeaten indicates that the only important event (eversince 1980) may fast be drawing to a close for the US.It just won’t be any fun without the US hockey teamhot in pursuit of another gold medal. Remember,though, they’re not quite out of it yet. After all,“Don’t you believe in miracles...happening twice?”-MBThe women’s varsity basketball team, needless tosay, has been very successful this year. Chicago haspounded teams by as many as 56 points. It is inter¬esting to note that in games which Chicago has wonby the largest margins, the opposing team has uti¬lized a zone defense. What seems really dumb is that14 -The Chicago Maroon—Friday, February 10, 1984 they continue to do so. Why? Diann Nestel comment¬ed, “I really don’t know for sure. Maybe it is on ac¬count of foul trouble. We do much better against azone defense.”The fan bus which the athletic department char¬tered for the trip to St. Norbert did not fill up, so theplans have been cancelled. Anyone who paid in ad¬vance for the trip should stop by the IM Office on thesecond floor of Ida Noyes to reclaim the money.Originally the plan called for 45 people, but only halfthat number responded.The bus would have taken fans from Chicago toGreen Bay, home of the St. Norbert Green Knights,for two important conference games. The confer¬ence title for both the men’s and women’s conferencemay be decided that evening. —GS* * * * *Though the defense remains strong as ever and theoffense has come around, one overriding factor inthe success of the men’s varsity basketball team,now and in the future, is youth.The lineup that faced Beloit Tuesday contained noseniors, and only two seniors for either team playedat all in the game.That means Chicago will return basically the sameteam next season, and three of this year’s startersthe year after that, allowing for some continuity andproviding head coach John Angelus a chance to es¬tablish some very strong teams. Beloit head coachBill Napton seems to agree, juding from his assess¬ment of Chicago after Tuesday’s 55-53 Maroon victo¬ry.“No doubt they are an improved team,” said Nap-ton, who said that the player he thought has madethe most stiides is freshman forward David Witt.Witt had eight points in Tuesday’s game in the firsthalf, and has started for most of the season, espe¬cially during Chicago’s recent 6-1 run through theconference.“He played a lot when they (Chicago) came up tous,” said Napton, “but he’s come a long way. He’s agood one.”Tuesday’s game provided a clinic in the team playthat Angelus has discussed all season long. The open¬ing minutes of the first half, when Chicago took acommanding 18-7 lead (“where they won the game,”according to Napton) showed Chicago running itsmotion offense, moving the ball, and looking patient¬ly for the open man and open shot. The result: eachteam member had at least a basket, many of whichcame on inside feeds from guard Rob Omiecinski or forward Nick Meriggioli.When Beloit tightened its defense and appliedsome pressure, Chicago had to adjust, and didwell.“We stayed with our game,” said assistant coachJim Hargesheimer. “Everyone stayed calm, and wecountered their baskets. We never let them get mo¬mentum.” The big weapon in the second half, Omie¬cinski, poured in 12 of his team-high 16, including 10from the floor and two last second free throws. Omie¬cinski made the pass, though, that set up Meriggiolifor an important three-point play that gave Chicagoa five point lead with two minutes left and took someof the wind out of the Buccaneer sails.“Everyone on the team has his role,” said Ange¬lus, more than once if I can remember.Chicago can exercise its role as spoiler in the nexttwo weeks, as the Maroons face St. Norbert — now infirst place in the conference — twice, including ahome game on Feb. 22. All of the top teams play oneanother as the season winds down these two weeks,so essentially it’s anybody’s race. —FL* * * * *Wednesday night the Chicago Sting played “TheBest of the Rest” in the first-ever North AmericanSoccer League All-Star game. Touted as the biggestsports event this winter at the Chicago Stadium, thegame drew fans from all over Chicagoland. Like aWoodward Court lecture, it had a little bit of every¬thing. The game pitted the “Lord of All Indoors”Steve Zungul against Chicago’s Torfuhrer Karl-Heinz Granitza. In the end Zungul got an Emmy forhis penalty drawing ability, and Granitza wasnamed MPV. Unfortunately, the referees decided tomake poor calls against both teams. The resultswere astonishing. There were penalty kicks, redcards, yellow cards, and bench clearing brawls.There were mothers screaming, fathers swearing,and bodies crashing walls. There were dancing girls,flying beers, and gymnasts taking falls. And afterthe Astro-Turf settled, the All-Stars won 9-8, to thesurprise of none at all.The Sting play the Cosmos at home tonight at 8.

Ripon heldsecond place in the conference behindBeloit and St. Norbert, but has slippedoff the pace following a 53-52 loss to Be¬loit and a 94-85 loss to Lake Forest.In the Beloit game the Redmen led52-43 with 7:27 left to play, but failed toscore the rest of the game. “What itcomes down to is we played a greatgame for 37 minutes,” said Ripon headcoach Bob Gillespie. Tom Reader, theconference’s third leading scorer, had22 points for Ripon in what Gillespietermed “the finest game he has everplayed (here).”Basketball broadcastWHPK, 88.3 FM, will broadcast livethe women’s basketball game betweenthe Chicago Maroons and LawrenceCollege at 7:30 p.m. Join Craig Rosen¬baum for all the play-by-play and tunein at 7:15 for the pre-game show.

Shouldthey remain in first place at the end ofthe season, they will host the winnerfrom the conference’s south division,which looks like either Coe or Cornell atthe moment, for the overall MidwestConference title. By Don Haslams The University of Chicago wrestlingjj team limped into the Cougar Classic at^ Concordia College of River Forest, Ill.a Saturday and miraculously came awayi with a fifth place out of eleven teams.Coach Leo Kocher’s charges tallied58 points and finished only a quarter ofa point behind the fourth place team.Because of a rash of recent injuries, thesquad entered contestants in only fiveof the ten weight classes. Two champi¬ons, a second place, and a fifth place,however, boosted the team to its out¬standing showing.First the good news: Mike Perzpinned his University of Wisconsin(Whitewater) opponent in the finals ofthe 142 pound class to win a champion¬ship. Gene Shin beat two-time DivisionIII All-American Paul Lancaster fromWheaton College, 6-5, in the 190 poundfinals to win his championship. JeffFarwell garnered second place in the138 pound class after losing 4-2 to atough Bill Flatt of Concordia, and SteveLau earned a fifth place with a strong10-0 match. A fifth place team perfor¬mance is a great finish for a team sobeat up that it can only field half asquad. The bad news is that things maybe just that bad when the MCAC confer¬ence tournament rolls around a weekfrom Saturday. The most recent and serious injurywas suffered by returning conferencechampion Tim Bachenburg. He brokehis hand while trying to break a fall inpractice last week and is doubtful forthe conference meet. Karl Lietzan isstill out with a separated shoulder andis “hopeful” for the meet. Lietzan wasalso a conference champion from lastyear’s team. Finally, last year’s thirdplace finisher Mark Nootens is still outwith a strained knee ligament. He, too,is regarded as hopeful for the confer¬ence meet.Coach Kocher, however, describesthe situation as an optimistic one.“Anything can happen in confer¬ence,” he said. “We can finish any¬where (in conference) from first tosixth. We’ll just have to see how readywe can be in two weeks.”Prior to the conference finale, how¬ever, the Maroons have a warm-upwith, among others, rivals Ripon andLawrence at Lawrence University inAppleton, Wise, on Saturday. Kocherremarked, “I hope we’ll take at leastsix guys. It should be a good warm¬up.”It should also be a good indication ofhow the injury-riddled team will do inconference.Sports CalendarWomen’s Basketball — Friday, Feb. 10, vs. Lawrence University, atHCFH, 6 p.m. and Saturday, Feb. 11, at Ripon College, 5 p.m. Friday’s game isthe last home game of the year, and the last day of The Great Chicago Shoo¬tout.Men’s Basketball — Saturday, Feb. 11, at Ripon College, 3 p.m.Wrestling — Saturday, Feb. 11, at Lawrence University Invitational, 10a.m.Fencing — Saturday, Feb. 11, away against Detroit, Purdue, Ohio State, andWashington University (St. Louis).The Department of Music presents TheCONTEMPORARYCHAMBER PLAYERSof The University of ChicagoRALPH SHAPEY, Mus/c DirectorsoloistsElsa Charlston, soprano • Barbara Haffner, celloAndrea Swan, piano • John Bruce Yeh, clarinetprogramBrian Fennely Scintilla Prisca for solo cello and pianoEzra Sims ElegyHans Werner Henze Le Miracle de la Rose, Imaginary Theatre No. 2FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1984 • 8:00 P.M.MANDEL HALL, 57th and University AvenueFree and open to the publicA 20th Anniversary Year CelebrationSEAGRAMSVO Saturday, February 119:00 -1:00 a.m.FREE DRINKS: 9:00-9:30 p.m.(UCID, over 21 only)LAW SCHOOL1111E. 60th St.ALL INVITED!PRICE REDUCTION SALE!NEW LOWER PRICES!

On the weekends, there will betournaments similar to last year’s format, for whichthe IM Office provides both officials and equip¬ment.Hopefully the Midway fields will be used, unlikelast year when the games were played at North Fieldbecause of flooding.“We’ll have a process,” McCarthy said, “by whichwe’ll determine the All-University champion. Andwe will award T-Shirts.”McCarthy said that the weekend tournaments willbe scheduled for Saturday only, so that if rainwashes them out they’ll be rescheduled for Sunday.“All of these plans are tentative,” said McCarthy,stressing that it is impossible to set definite dates forthings at this time.“We will have possibly as many as six weekendtournaments,” he said, adding that things should getunderway my mid-April. He also noted that the All-University tournament, however it will be conduct¬ed, should be scheduled for Memorial Day Week¬end. ■Tentative plans for spring softballl—Review of grad league basketball divisionsmany he made did not begin until he made his firstshot.Finally, entries for the IM track and field meet aredue in the IM Office in Ida Noyes Hall on Feb. 15.**********Today is the last day for the IM free throw shoot¬ing. Only eight shooters showed up Wednesday forthe first round. Shooting will be HCFH courts threeand four, and will be from 6:30-9:30 this evening.If shooters are present but do not shoot by 9:30 ar¬rangements will be made to accommodate them.The procedure differs from last year’s. This year ashooter receives only three practice shots, and thenhis next 25 count toward his total. Last year a shooterreceived five practice shots, and the count of how In the men’s undergraduate basketball league,Dodd-Mead took a 6-0 record by virtue of an 80-11 vic¬tory over Lower Rickert. Shorey hacked its way to a38-11 win over Dewey to boost its record to 4-0, andBlackstone defeated Michelson, 45-31, to round outthe top teams in the Monday-Wednesday-Saturdayleague, the most competitive one at the undergradu¬ate level.In the Tuesday-Thursday-Friday league, Cham¬berlin looked very unconvincing in its 32-22 triumphover Compton. They had better get things together ifthey expect to give Commuters a fight for the topslot.The Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday league has be¬come very close, as Fiji squeaked by Dudley, 49-47,in overtime. Dudley’s defense let down in the finalminutes of the game to force it into overtime.Charley’s Deep Sea Divers still remain favorites inthe undergrad independent league; they are 3-0, butstill have to play the C-Men. The C-Men showed theirstrength in a win over Mick’s Kids, 41-34, but need towork if they are to challenge Charley’s. C-Men alsobeat Goon Squad in a grudge match, 66-15.In the women’s league, Monday-Wednesday-Friday, the Medflies last played on Jan. 25, and theyneed to stay sharp if they have any chance to beatother teams in much tougher league.Out of Season beat Div School in a game which wasmuch closer than the 45-27 score indicates; the DivSchool wasn’t out of the game until late in the secondhalf. The only really good game left is Tufts vs. Outof Season on Feb. 17.Looking over the men’s graduate league: In Tues¬day-Thursday-Friday competition, Too Swift had reigned as champ for two years. The closest anyonehas come to beating them came when HiTops fellshort by 11. Larry Hatchett’s team should repeat inthis league, and HiTops should take the other playoffspot in that division. Law School A could surprise,though. Traditional power Divinity School is playingwell, but not well enough to challenge.In the Monday-Wednesday-Saturday league, AllDay Long has rolled over all opposition, and beatTeam X, 77-12, in a convincing win. Bovver Boys areundefeated, but have not put together more than 53points on offense in games against weak opponents.IV Shooters, with Kevin Tetsworth, played themclose, 48-42. If they have any hope of winning, theBovver Boys will have to crush All Day Long Feb.24.In the Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday league,Crimes Against Nature and Spikes Gang are both un¬defeated, with three and four wins respectively.They play Mar. 1 to decide the division title. Crimesrolled 77-27 against Chapter 11 last week. BoxingOscar could surprise when they play Spikes Gang onFeb. 28. The cocky B-School team, which lost 60-36early in the season to Crimes, has started to get itsact together with a 63-34 win over Chapter 11.*****Some results from the individual and team tour¬naments: In women’s racquetball singles, Myra La-Venue plays Seema Chandnani in the finals. Themen’s graduate racquetball singles, Steve Gradwohldefeated Steve Primack 15-21, 21-5, 15-3.

Chi¬cago popped at a sizzling 50 percent throughout the first half.The second half opened with eightstraight points by the Maroons. Nesteladded, “Our shot selection was muchbetter in the second half; everythingmeshed.” The Maroons poured in 39points in the second half, with all butthree Maroons figuring in the scoring.Gretchen Gates paced the Maroonswith 19 points and 11 rebounds whileonly clocking 23 minutes playing time.Helen Straus and Karen Walsh chipped in nine points each, with Walsh addedthree assists and Straus grabbing eightrebounds.The Maroons hope to win their ninthconsecutive conference game tonightagainst Lawrence University at HenryCrown. Lawrence is 4-9 on the seasonbut Nestel is not overconfident. “Theyare a much improved team and have agood shooter in Kary Strickland.”Strickland is averaging 12.6 points pergame so far this year.Dr. Kurt RosenbaumOptometrist(53 Klmbark Plaza)1200 E. 53rd St.493-8372Intelligent people know thedifference between advertisedcheap glasses or contact lensesand competent professionalservice with quality material.Beware of bait advertisingEye ExaminationsFashion Eye WearContact Lenses Studios, 1 & 2 BedroomApartments AvailableSome Nice Lake ViewsGood LocationHeat IncludedParking AvailableCALLHERBERT REALTY684-23335 % Student Discounts9:00 A.M.-4:30 P.M.Monday thru FridayThe Chicago Maroonannounces aSTAFF MEETINGSUNDAY, FEBRUARY 128:30 p.m.IDA NOYES HALLROOM 303 Chicago Literary Reviewwants your short fiction,poetry, drama, criticism, andreviewsDeadline: FEBRUARY 29Drop submissions in the CLRbox in the Maroon office,Ida Noyes Hall, Room 303Get Literary!The Chicago Maroon—Friday, February 10, 1984—17BARCLAY - 1 bedroom unit in theBarclay offers lake view from allwindows, hardwood floors, and extralarge walk-in closet; in addition thebuilding is one of Hyde Park’s loveliest- 24 hour doorman, elegant old lobby,extra security in laundry and bikerooms.

Wade Supreme Court decision legalizingabortion. This decision held that abortion during the first trimester isthe private concern of a woman and her doctor. During the secondtrimester, the states may legislate to protect maternal health, but notto regulate who qualifies for an abortion. During the third trimesterthe states may regulate and even proscribe abortion, unless anabortion is needed to protect the mother’s life and health.Michael P. Arthur Rondal C.
