The Chicago MaroonVolume 94, No. 3 The University of Chicago Copyright 1984 The Chicago Maroon Friday, July 13, 1984USFCU to pay dividendsBy Hilary TillTHE UNIVERSITY StudentFederal Credit Union(USFCU) will be paying divi¬dends for this past financialquarter. Hannah Grausz, act¬ing president of the creditunion, said Wednesday that theamount of the dividends will beannounced in credit unionmembers’ July transactionstatements. These financialstatements will be sent tomembers next month.This past quarter, which ranfrom April 1 to June 30, will bethe first time the credit unionwill be issue dividends. In theprevious quarter, which wasits first quarter of existence,the credit union elected not topay dividends to its members.This upset some membersbecause the credit union’s orig¬inal information pamphlets didnot indicate that there wouldbe a financial quarter in whichno dividends would be paid.One pamphlet which describedthe credit union’s equivalent ofa savings account said that insuch an account, “the interestrate is competitive with bankrates.”Although the credit unionmade a profit in its firstquarter, the USFCU withheldbenefits on the advice of the Il¬linois Credit Union League andthe National Credit Union As¬sociation. Withholding divi¬dends was seen “as a goodmove for the credit union’s fi¬nancial strength” (Maroon5/1/84).GRAUSZ DEFENDED theecision. “Last quarter...wepaid dividends, but they hap¬pened to be zero,” she said. She added that at most otheruniversity student creditunions, there is only about a50/50 chance that dividendsare paid at all each quarter.SHE SAID that the USFCU isdifferent from other studentcredit unions. Whereas manyother student credit unionsexist for educational reasons,“our’s exists for service,” theacting president said.The six-month old creditunion now serves about 1600people, and 70 new accountshave been opened since the endof spring quarter. The unex¬pectedly large volume of pa¬ tronage at the credit union thissummer has sometimes result¬ed in long lines at the USFCU’sdoors during its scaled-downsummer hours.Currently, the USFCU hasfour volunteer tellers and onefull-time manager staffing itssummer hours. Grausz wel¬comed all students who wouldlike to volunteer time to stepforward during this “very busysummer.” Referring to theshortened hours and length¬ened queues, she said, “Unlessthere is involvement frommore people, this is the best wecan do.” The West Indian Folk Dance Company performedWednesday as part of SAO’s Summer on the Quadsnoontime concerts.

ShermanTHE UNIVERSITY is “dis¬appointed” with a recent Su¬preme Court decision uphold¬ing the right of the federalgovernment to make draft reg¬istration a pre-condition of fi¬nancial assistance, accordingto Eleanor Borus. associatedirector of College Aid.“We prefer not to be in¬volved in linking financial aid”to whether or not a student hasregistered with the SelectiveService System, Borus told theMaroon.Students who do not complywith draft registration require¬ments are ineligible for aid ofany kind from the state or fed¬eral governments. Estimatesof the number of men who haverefused to comply with the lawrange from 100,000 to severaltimes that figure.Last year a Minnesota court decided that making draft reg¬istration a condition of aid wasunconstitutional. The law dis-„ criminates against those mostin need of financial assistance,the Minnesota court said, andviolates the Fifth Amend¬ment’s protection against self¬incrimination by making stu¬dents disclose whetner or notthey have complied with thelaw. The Supreme Court lastweek cast these views aside.“We think it’s terrible,” saidJay Miller, executive directorof the American Civil LibertiesUnion in Illinois. “It penalizes(those) who are dependent onfederal subsidies.... It’s an at¬tempt to get around the factthat there’s no way (the gov¬ernment) can get around to”prosecuting the large numberof non-registrants.William Lesher, president ofthe Lutheran School of Theolo¬ gy. concurred. “I think it is anintrusion on the integrity of anacademic institution to make(students) pawns of the state.Our board of directors passeda resolution at its meeting inNovember” protesting the So¬lomon Amendment, as the fed¬eral law is known.Philip B. Kurland, a profes¬sor in the law school, is not sur¬prised by the Court’s decision.“It’s totally consistent withprecedent, and. I should think,totally anticipated.” he said.Kurland cited the demandsmade of medical students bythe federal government as anexample of making aid condi¬tional. “It’s not a new proposi¬tion,” he said.THE COURT’S decision is“obviously an arm-twistingthing, trying to intimidate peo¬ple,” said John Richardson. 28.a graduate student in linguis-Controversy surrounds recent Court rulingsThe United States SupremeCourt’s most recent term drewto a close last week. TheMaroon asked Dennis Hutchin¬son, a profesor of Constitution¬al law in the Law School whoalso teaches in the College, tocomment on some of theINTERVIEWCourt’s most controversial de¬cisions. In an interview withMark W. Sherman, Hutchinsondiscussed the War Powers Act,affirmative action, church-state relations, and a set of de¬cisions on the Fourth Amend¬ment. In one of these, the Courtheld that prisoners do not enjoythe Fourth Amendment’s pro¬tection against unreasonablesearch and seizure. It would appear that asthings now stand, a prisonerhas no right to keep even some¬thing as benign as a letter, aphotograph, legal documents,any records whatsoever per¬taining to his or her case. He orshe doesn 't even have the rightto be present during the searchof his or her cell during whichthese items may be confiscatedand then destroyed — a ratherserious erosion of whateverrights may have existed.Well, I’m not sure it’s an ero¬sion of rights...or a loss ofFourth Amendment rights. I’dsay it’s a refusal to extend theFourth Amendment’s protec¬tions against unreasonablesearch and seizures to the pris¬on environment.It’s never been held before,in 200 years, that the FourthInsideLast Nightatthe Alamoycj cover Amendment applied to theprison environment. There’sprobably a pretty good reasonfor that, and that’s the terribleproblems of security insideprisons mean that it would besimply impractical for war¬dens, jailers, or the like, to gorunning to a federal judgeevery time they wanted to patsomebody dowm, or to search acell to see if there were narcot¬ics, contraband, weapons, andthe like. I think the Court, atleast a majority of the Court,recognized that, and thoughtthat instead of drav/ing linesbetween photographs andsome religious objects andweapons or something thatcould incite a disturbance, justsaid, it’s never applied therebefore, and there’s no reason toapply it with full force. I’m notsure I’m outraged by thatrule.Is the loss of rights totalwhen one enters prison? Whatrights does one retain ?Ten years ago the Court saidthat the Constitution requiredthat some sort of hearing beheld if a prisoner was to be de¬prived of good time cred¬its....So that right was certain¬ly there.The Court has been ambiva¬lent as to the degree to whichthat due process hearing rightextends to other disciplinaryfunctions in the prison — segre¬gation by solitary ronfinomont,segregation in a work-house asopposed to a general area ofthe prison and that sort of thing. Certainly the EighthAmendment proscriptionagainst cruel and unusual pun¬ishment...obviously was de¬signed for the prison environ¬ment, though not limited to theprison environment.Dennis J. Hutchinson: “I’mone of those .people whoforesees a fairly limitedrole for the judiciary inthis society. . .For judgesto identify new rights thatonly have a tenuous basisin the Constitution seemsto me to invert the basicorder of decision makingin a constitutional democ¬racy.”So you certainly have thoserights there. But prison is aplace that is difficult to operatein a successful and humanefashion. And if ordinary rightscontinued on page three tics. “It’s trying to exploit thepeople who need aid the most,which is typical of draft laws.It holds an economic club overyour head.”David Mulder, 33, agreesthat “it’s a kind of blackmail.”Mulder, who teaches history inthe Continuing Education pro¬gram. believes that the link be¬tween registration and aidcreates a false choice for poli¬cymakers between “whetherwe should have an army or aneducated citizenry.”Mulder applied for recogni¬tion as a conscientious objec¬tor when he registered for thedraft in 1970. Kurt Weiss. 26.believes that the opportunity tofile as a conscientious objectorshould satisfy those who objectto the registration require¬ment. This is what he woulddo. Weiss said, and for this rea¬son he is “not opposed” to thelaw.“I think that it’s a very goodrule, in fact,” said Weiss, whocompleted his graduate stu¬dies in English in 1981. “If youdon't want to register, then geta loan from your dad.”Many students who dependon financial aid wculd find thissuggestion of Weiss's a poorone. Eighty-three percent ofstudents who receive state orfederal aid come from familieswith- incomes of less than$12,000, according to the NewYork Times.WOMEN ARE immune fromthe registration require¬ment, but some do not believethat is fair. “If the men have toregister, the women ought toalso.” said Christine Ericson.29. a graduate student in Ro¬mance languages.Nora Wasowrizc, 22, is of thesame opinion. “I think if it’sgoing to be that way, then bothmen and women should be ex¬pected to put down their namesfor Selective Service,” shesaid.Though willing to register,Wasowrizc was asked if shewould be willing to be draft¬ed.“I really don’t know. I thinkit would depend on what thewar was being fought about.”By virtue of his Canadian cit¬izenship, Bill Christie, 28.shares Wasowrizc’s immunityfrom the recent SupremeCourt decision. “My gut feel¬ing is that you shouldn't haveto make that kind of disclo¬sure,” he said after w atching anoon-time performance in Hut¬chinson Court. “If it makes itharder tor someone to go toschool, I don’t see how it helpseither students or thecountry”m Stanley KarnowVIETNAMA HistoryThe First Complete Account of Vietnam at WarA Companion to the PBS Television SeriesThe Vietnam War involved four presidential ad¬ministrations, hundreds of thousands of troops, and thedeep feelings of millions of Americans.

And that’s...a practicalrisk I think the Supreme Court has re¬cognized in not extending the generalrange of so-called Bill of Rights protec¬tions to the prison environment.Surely, though, the legal process it¬self would be subverted if a prisonerwere subject to the loss of his or herlegal papers.I don’t think that necessarily follows.The question is whether he can suc¬cessfully mount either a defense of hiscase or pursue habeas corpus success¬fully. I think that has to be determinedon a case-by-case basis...There cer¬tainly are enough decisions on thebooks, now, of the Supreme Court, thatif he was frustrated in pursuing habaescorpus in mounting his defense ordidn’t have access to a prison library,he would have cause for relief by theCourt.%Under a different provision, then?That’s right.“TheConstitution. . . isa profoundlypoliticaldocument.”Is there some clause in the Constitu¬tion that refers to the loss of rightsupon imprisonment?Well, I suppose that there are certainaspects of the Constitution that expli¬citly talk about it, but that largely goesthrough franchise. The FourteenthAmendment talks about the loss of the vote by convicted felons. But the as¬sumption of the framers of the Bill ofRights in the 18th Century certainlywas that the Bill of Rights did not applywfth full force in jails. It would havebeen ludicrous for them to specificallysay, “and furthermore, these but notthese rights will obtain in a prison sys¬tem.” No one ever assumed that theywould.Is that assumption containd in a pre¬amble to the Bill or in some other docu¬ment?No. It’s just based on a historicalreading of debates over the Bill ofRights and (their) ratifications...It’s amatter of historical interpretation, nota matter of strict interpretation of adocument...I frankly don’t think that there’s any¬thing wrong in terms of constitutionalinterpretation with the court’s deci¬sions in those Fourth Amendmentcases. But I’m one of those people whoforesees a fairly limited role for the ju¬diciary in this society.I don’t think that the basic structureof the Constitution is to have courts,judges, unelected officials makingbasic public policy choices, particular¬ly when there’s so little clear mandatefor them to do so. Basic public policychoices get made by members of exec¬utive branches and legislativebranches at the state and federal level,and for judges to identify new rightsthat only have a tenuous basis in theConstitution seems to me to invert thebasic order of decision-making in aconstitutional democracy.From almost any standpoint. I wouldfind an opposite result in those FourthAmendement cases astonishing. Froma practical standpoint, I think it wouldbe very hard to maintain the disciplineand security in the state and federalprisons, which is presently so fragilelymaintained, if the Fourth Amendment,and the First Amendment, for thatmatter, fully applied in the prison con¬text. Do your views about the limited roleof the judiciary lead you to concur withthe court’s refusal to consider the suitby 29 members of the Congress, charg¬ing that the President has violated theWar Powers Act?It doesn’t necessarily follow from mygeneral view that I would support thatspecific conclusion. I think it does de¬pend on whether that sort of a suit isthe type that is contemplated withinthe War Powers Resolution as being re¬solvable by a court.Putting the precise legal question toone side, of whether the suit should beheard from a practical standpoint. Ithink that federal courts, and particu¬larly the Supreme Court, are gettinginto fairly hot Constitutional waterwhen they try to sort out disagree¬ments between the executive branchand the legislative branch in foreign af¬fairs, and particularly over the exer¬cise of so-called war power in the Con¬stitution...The court can not resolvethat essentially political difficulty.Congress has the power to control thePresident, if it should want to exerciseit. It can cut his budget dramatically, itcan refuse these ludicrously high mili¬tary appropriations, it can do anynumber of things. To go to a court, in asense, is to confess political impo¬tence... I think it would be unwise forthe Court to attempt to control thePresident at the behest of a handful ofcongressmen in this sort of area.The impreachment power, then,would be the ultimate sanction.It’s the ultimate saction. of course.But that’s the thermo-nuclear bomb, constitutionally. Nobody wants to useit. The fact that it came close to suc¬cessful utiliation ten years ago is stillremarkable.But imagine if the Court would haveentertained that suit by the 29 repre¬sentatives, and imagine if the Courtwould have granted relief to them andsaid that the President lacked thepower to do x, y, or z. W’hat should theCourt do the next day, when 29 plus onecome in and ask for the opposite re¬lief?You see the sorts of problems thatare immediately implicated. It’s a pro¬foundly political issue. And that’s oneof the great problems, if you want tocall it that, of the Constitution, is thatit’s a profoundly political document,political in the sense of creating powercenters and power vacuums, of havingvery sparse language that’s extremelyambiguous, of being able to be con¬strued in more than one way, just asyou and I have taken very oppositeviews of the Fourth Amendment, butboth plausibly.When you get into these areas, courtsrun the risk of not being legitimatewith the decisions they make. The deci¬sions which they make aren’t particu¬larly stable, the position of the court it¬self may change, the court may changeits mind, or the other branches of gov¬ernment may use their not inconsider¬able powers to disrupt the court’s rul¬ings.So it's best to stay out of a vacuumthan try to —continued on page four“The decision in the exclusionaryrule cases . . . seems to give theimpression of turning the Bill ofRights on and off like a watertap.”THROUGHOUT JULYHEWLETT-PACKARD PERSONAL COMPUTER PRODUCTSSPECIALU.

July 1$. 19R4— 3INTERVIEWCourtcontinued from page threeThat’s right, unless absolutely com¬pelled to enter it in a clearly constitu¬tional fashion.Were there any decisions reachedthis term by the court that you stronglydisagree with?I think the decision in the exclusion¬ary rule cases was an extremely unfor¬tunate one. I think it’s unfortunatemore for institutional reasons. Itseems to give the impression of turningthe Bill of Rights on and off like a wa-tertap or a tape recorder. I don’t think“Theexclusionary ruleis on its way out. ”that that does much for constitutionalrights.I think one of the terrible problemsthe Warren Court left us is in this le¬gacy. In its zeal to find more and moreconstitutional rights, it made centralconstitutional rights more fragile, be¬cause it made the debate over rightsbasically an ideological debate, a polit¬ical debate.If you start wiping away the novel¬ties of the Warren Court, there’s noth¬ing logically to stop you from going allthe way. and wiping out even what wasthought to be very central before theWarren Court came into power.So it's the assault, a full-bodied as¬sault on a body of legal doctrine thatcontains both what you would considerrather traditional policies and themore —It makes everything up for grabs,that style of reasoning.And the Court has decided that thepolice may now conduct a search with¬out a correct warrant.Well, it’s without a technically cor¬rect warrant. But there’s nothing in thelogic of the Court’s opinion that con¬fines it to warrant cases. You ’re saying the search and seizurepowers have been broadly extended.Well, what the Court has done, andit’s important to get it precisely cor¬rect, it’s not pedantry, it’s just impor¬tant to realize precisely what the Courthas done. They have said that if the po¬lice rely in good faith on a warrant thatis technically deficient at least in somerespects, the evidence secured pursu¬ant to that warrant is nonetheless ad¬missible in court.Now, so far, the “good faith” excep¬tion applies only to evidence seizedpursuant to a defective warrant, butthere is nothing necessarily in the logicof the opinion that confines it to sei¬zures based on a warrant. It could beseizures based on probable cause. Thecop says, “I thought I had good infor¬mation, and the guy was about to getaway, so I grabbed him, patted himdown, and found the heroin, or foundthe coke, or found the grass or whatev¬er.”So the exclusionary rule is on its wayout.In view of recent publicity given toJesse Jackson’s visit to Cuba and Cen¬tral America, on what basis has thecourt upheld the restrictions on travelto Cuba?Basically, they’ve said there’s noth¬ing in the Constitution that affirms orgrants the right to travel and that thecontrol of foreign travel is incident tolegislative control, under the Constitu¬tion, of commerce with foreign nationsand that sort of thing.The great irony of it, to me, is that ifyou look historically at the context ofthe Constitution, when it was createdand the Bill of Rights were ratified, theright to travel to foreign countries wassimply assumed. It was so obvious, itwasn’t necessary to put it in the Consti¬tution.Now the Court, behaving in a very lit¬eral fashion, is saying, well it’s notmentioned in the Constitution, so itmust not be there, and the power overforeign affairs is certainly commendedto the executive branch, the legislativebranch, so they win. It is, in my view, afatally literalistic method of legal in¬terpretation..4re there any other comments you'dlike to make about the recent term ?The Chicago MaroonThe Chicago Maroon is the official student newspaper of the Universityof Chicago.

Sherman, Anne-Bernadette Weiner There is one comment that I wouldlike to make. I’ve noticed the newspa¬pers, television, talk-shows, in the lastseveral days, a number of commentsabout the Supreme Court. Unfortunate¬ly, the news media seems to take theCourt seriously only twice a year: theweek before the term begins and theweek after it ends, and there’s very lit¬tle careful attention paid to it in the in¬terim.The theme of the national media’scoverage has been in terms that this isthe most conservative teYm sinceBurger became Chief Justice, there’s aswing to the right, that Sandra DayO’Connor...has become a central fig¬ure in (this). I think that ignores a cou¬ple of terribly important distinctionsabout the Surpeme Clourt.The first one is that it assumes thatsimply because Ronald Reagan orJerry Falwell supports a decision thatthe Court makes that that decisionshould be called conservative, and thatthe judges’ views are arrived at for thesame reasons that Falwell’s and Rea¬gan’s views are. I think that is utterlyerroneous.One of the decisions that was calledterribly conservative was the Stotts v.Memphis Firefighters, the affirmativeaction/seniority/last-hired-first-firedcase. Well, I suppose from a rhetoricalstandpoint one can call that conserva¬tive, but it’s only conservative from thepolitical lens of the last few years.Certainly when the Civil Rights Actin 1964 was debated and enacted into that’s the old Court up to its business.Finally, I think to worry about thisconservative trend, particularly withrespect to search and seizure, criminalprocedure, which really aren’t veryimportant — symbolically, they’reterribly important, we worry about thepolice and the individual but the exclu¬sionary rule is implicated in only a tinyhandful of all cases that are broughtinto criminal court.What I find much more worrisome,at least worthy of attention, is a trendwhich you would call conservative, butagain I think that’s misleading, andthat is in the area of church-state rela¬tions.Now we’ve had a minor case thisyear, upholding a municipality’s con¬struction of a nativity scene. The Courtfound that did not violate the Establish¬ment Clause of the First Amendment,as I think the framers of the FirstAmendment probably would haveagreed.But the point is this: this is the thirddecision in two terms now that takes aradically different view of the Establis-ment Clause than the jurisprudence ofthe court for twenty yers had taken. Inthis case, a nativity scene was upheld.Last year, a chaplain in the Nebraskalegislature at public expense wasupheld.Most important of all, a tuition taxexemption that largely, or 90 percent,went to the benefit of the parents of pa¬rochial school children wasupheld...That is a substantial depar¬“This Court has been extremelysympathetic to the police in respect tosearch and seizure for thirteen years. ”law, there’s simply no doubt but thatthat was the rule that Congress thoughtthat it was imposing — that these se¬niority systems would not be disturbed.I think all the court was doing therewas not being conservative, but wasdoing its job in reaching the result thatCongress told them that they should;that’s what the act stands for. So Ithink it’s a mistake to see a conserva¬tive trend in the affirmative action de¬cision. Any other result would havebeen a gross distortion of what the stat¬ute said and what Congress thought itwas doing.Another trend that seems conserva¬tive is the “good faith” exception to theexclusionary rule, the case we’ve justbeen talking about. Well, that’s not atrend. This court has been extremelysympathetic to the police in respect tosearch and seizure for thirteen years,since Warren Burger became ChiefJustice, since both Warren and Fortasleft the Court. And all this is the logicaldevelopment of that trend.It’s stark only because the court hasfinally said what everybody felt orthought it was doing or prepared to do,and that is that there is a “good faith”exception. But it’s found lots of searchand seizures reasonable that the War¬ren Court would never have found rea¬sonable. So that’s not a new trend. ture from the run of results of decisionsin this area that the courts have beenhanding down really since the early50s, since before Warren was a Su¬preme Court justice.The thing that’s so shocking aboutthat range of recent decisions is thatthe Court purports to be applying thesame old test. You’ve got a test calledLemon v. Kurtzman, which is the nameof a Supreme Court case of a few yearsago, which has three aspects. TheCourt just rolls thorugh the threeaspects, and they usually find, “andtherefore, it violates the Establish¬ment Clause.”But in these three cases, the Courtsaid, “and therefore, we find that itdoesn’t violate the EstablishmentClause.” And so there’s a staggeringdegree of disingenuousness going on inthis change of doctrine.That, to me, is probably the most im¬portant development in the last coupleof years — important for three rea¬sons: one, because it affects so manypeople; two, symbolically, it’s so im¬portant, the tension between churchand state has been with us since thefounding of this country; three, fromthe institutional standpoint, the Courtis not owning up to what it’s doing. It’schanging directions without admittingit. That’s just a lie to the public.4—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, July 13, 1984 The Chicago MaroonWill publish three moreissues this quarter:FRIDAY, JULY 20FRIDAY, JULY 27FRIDAY, AUGUST 3Apartment Shopping?Choice Hyde Park Locations!(-5507 Everett-^2.5 rooms, boat, stove,retrigerator ana not$300.00 month.[—6212 Cornell—|2.5 room and studio^IfVIIVItflll HCUUfiC UvvUpwilvjrrheat, hot water, electric,and cooking gas includedin rent.

Allof the elements are there for the prototy¬pical underdog story: the young writ¬er/director, the shoestring budget, the dif¬ficult subject material. In fact, when thispicture was scheduled to appear at theBiograph last week — in competition withsuch mastodons as Indiana Jones andGremlins — the real question on manyminds was not whether anyone wouldcome to praise Pennell but whether any¬one would bother to bury him at all. Afterall the $60,000 or so the young directorused to shoot this film wouldn’t havebought one of Spielberg’s gremlins a boxlunch.It is for all these reasons, and manyothers, that this reviewer joined, withsome skepticism, the eight other (that’sright, eight) hardcore moviegoers at thedebut of what appeared to be this sea¬son’s most prophetically entitled film- TheLast Night at the Alamo. What this tinyband of adventurers discovered was, totheir delight, one of the most interestingand innovative movies released this sum¬mer. Devoid of big names and big budgetsAlamo is left with just a very daring con¬cept, a young but talented film team, andan enormous, enormous supply of energy.The result is a clarity of purpose andmeaning that is usually all but obscuredand lost in the high tech dazzle of most con¬temporary films.There is certa nly nothing “high tech’’ or“dazzling” to t found with the Alamo.The film’s direction, like the bar the filmdepicts, is straightforward and intention¬ally secondary to the activity itself. Pen¬nell uses black and white film and fairlystable camera positions to capture the feeland smell of this run down, backwater barthirty miles out of Houston. The scene is alltoo familiar with its psuedo-western,“monkey-wards" interior that one findsduplicated in the co jntless dives that clut¬ter the periphery of highways and bigcities across the country. The bar glistenswith stale beer ana resounds with themacho statements shouted across the roomfrom one patron to another. This bar is anextension of the people in it and the stale¬ness and false bravado are deary mani¬fest within their own lives.When we enter the Alamo, however, wefind it and its inhabitants clearly underseige. Ominously placed by the front door is the sign of a demolition company whichproudly states its intent to "make way forthe future.” This is a future which evident¬ly has no place for the Alamo or, for thatmatter, the sort of people it serves. Due tobe torn down the following day, theAlamo’s patrons gather for one last nightand, with the inevitability of the final clos¬ing time approaching, we learn somethingof the inevitability of their own ultimateremoval as a subculture in America.This is a sto-y about disenfranchisement;about a subculture whose fears and frus¬trations force them to become the stereo¬types that they’re portrayed as in televi¬sion and print. These are the rednecks andwoodhicks thal society feared in the fiftiesthen fought in the sixties and seventiesand finally forgot in the eighties. As thedemolition sign attests, they don’t fit withthe future. They’re crude and uneducated.They flaunt their prejudices and tire uswith their profanity and clumsiness ofspeech. After the sixties, they found lessand less in society that they could relate toand sought refuge in the thousands ofdives like the Alamo where “men are stillmen” and women are expendable.At the center of all this is the characterof “Cowboy” — played by Sonny CarlDavis — who reigns supreme at the Alamoas resident social lion and expert on allthings Texas. Cowboy’s arrival is fore¬ shadowed by the bar’s patrons who in¬voke his name and authority to justifytheir arguments. They all — save a few an¬tagonists — build Cowboy’s reputationinto a bigger than life (possibly even big¬ger than Texas) image. It rapidly becomesclear that many of the bar’s denizens de¬pend on Cowboy to support the sort ofmacho fantasies they themselves are lead¬ing. Furthermore, with the pending demoli¬tion of their last refuge. Cowboy’s authori¬ty becomes even more important and hisbehavior is observed even more closely inthe Alamo.Vet Cowboy, as it turns out, is hardly in aposition to offer this support since he him¬self is more shine than substance andrelies heavily on the uncritical “super¬image” that his cronies have built up forhim over the years. Like the baldness hehides under his cowboy hat. Cowboy hope¬lessly struggles to retain his hero image ashis “court”, as it were, is slowly disinte¬grating around him. Ironically, the onlyplace he can think of going after quittinghis construction job is to the movie in¬dustry. He tries to convince his friendClaude (Louis Perryman) to come with himand become the new Waynes and Eas¬twoods. It would only take a couple weeks,he argues, and then they’d be stars. Withthe Alamo closing, Cowboy is searching fora new place to be a hero; a place where he can continue to live out his fantasy. In des¬peration, he turns to the place where hisown heros came from and longs to jointheir endless dream in the backlots of Hol¬lywood.Sonny Carl Davis (Cowboy) is highly ef¬fective in his subtle performance of a manconstructed like the house of Cards that hischief antagonist Steve (J. Michael Ham¬mond) collapses at the start of the film.The role of Claude as played by Louis Per¬ryman is also worth mention. His portrayalof a good ol’ boy “more sinned againstthan sinning” is a pleasure to watch; hisfriendship to Cowboy gives his role thedepth that is missing in some of the lessercharacters (particularly in Tina-Bess Hub¬bard’s rather wanting portrayal of a barregular named Mary).The chief criticism of this movie — thatits characters are largely stereotypicaland shallow — is worth exploring becauseit emphasizes what is so interesting aboutAlamo. The selection of a story about red¬necks was a bold one by Eagle Pennell(original author, director) and Kim Henkel(screenwriter). This is not the sort of sub¬ject group tha: urban audiences would belikely to sympathize with or attempt to un¬derstand. This has been reflected in re¬views that simply see these characters asloud, foul-mouthed caricatures withoutdepth or substance. However, if this filmdoes anything it captures a subculturewhich in many ways has accepted the ste¬reotypes society has given them as part oftheir own identity. A white, southern, un¬educated male, raised in a prejudiced fam¬ily, will often play the role of the loud,beer guzzling redneck simply because thatis the only readily available identity hecomes into contact with as a child. Thealienation and hostility they feel towardssociety that more often than not depictsthem in films and books as villians anddolts only pushes them further into thissubculture. While they can’t fit in with thissociety, they can find friends at places likethe Alamo which rejects the same societythat rejected them. This movie is progres¬sive because it shows that some people ac¬tually live stereotypical lives and use thisself-caricaturing to give themselves theidentity that they felt was denied to themin the “making way for the future.”The Last Night at the Alamo probablywill not have an easy time at the box of¬fice. In competition with little furry crea¬tures or Temples of Doom, a story about abunch of rednecks down on their luck ishardly a guaranteed blockbuster. Butthat's no surprise to anyone, especiallyEagle Pennell. On the other hand, I think Iknow of at least a few other people whoare awfully glad that Eagle Pennell didsomething reckless with his summer.Louis Perryman and Sonny Carl Davis as Claude and CowboyHITCHCOCK'S EXPERIMENTby Michael KotzeRope is undoubtedly Alfred Hitchcock’smost artificial and wildly implausible film.The plot is contrived in the extreme, muchof the dialogue borders dangerously onthe banal, the acting ranges from mumblyunderplaying to flamboyant theatricality,and most of all, the film’s camera workcalls so much attention to itself that it’s awonder we pay any attention to the storyand the characters at all. All the same, it’sa remarkably exhilirating and entertain¬ing film, exhilirating for the gleeful clev¬erness it displays throughout. In Rope,Hitchcock is like a precocious child showingoff ,and if his bag of cinematic tricks ulti¬mately seems overstuffed, the film’s en¬ergy and inventiveness is undeniable.Rope is a variation on the ever-popularLeopold and Loeb theme. Two young men(John Dali and Farley Granger) murder afriend in an effort to confirm their statusas Nietzchean supermen. They hide thebody in a trunk in their living room, andproceed to host a cocktail party, theguests being the dead man’s parents andfiancee, and their old prep school head¬master (James Stewart), who first intro¬duced them to the philosophical idea thatmurder could be “a privilege for the selectfew.” All the action takes place in the mur¬derers’ fashionable Manhattan apart¬ment; the camera stakes out a small play¬ing area between the living room and thedining room and the entrance hall that con¬nects them, never to leave it. One of theeffects that makes Rope so unusual is itsuse of extiemely long “takes”. Instead of contribute a great deal to the film’s suc¬cess, for even as Hitchcock pushes his cam¬era to the limits of normally acceptable be¬havior, the three actors push themselvesto the limit, throwing any pretense of nat¬uralistic acting out the window. Not thatcutting conventionally from scene to scene,we have long, continuous uninterruptedshots, as the camera snakes its waythrough the apartment. In effect, all theaction in Rope is composed of five shots, asopposed to the hundreds and hundreds inmost films. As the plot unfolds in real time,this device heightens the claustrophobicnature of the cat and mouse game thatensues. Occasionally the use of this tech¬nique can be deliciously comic, as when thecamera playfully dips down to show us themurder weapon, a piece of rope, peekingout of the trunk where the body is hidden,momentarily unnoticed by the others onscreen. At other times it remains chillinglyimpassive, confining the characters in a ri¬gidly defined space, as in the film’s de¬nouement, made all the more involving bythe continuity of perspective, which im¬parts a compelling sense of inevitabilityon the action.One might be tempted to think of Ropeas purely an exercise in cinematic tech¬nique. But despite the film’s almost over¬whelming technical conceits, the perfor¬mances of Dali, Granger, and Stewart also there is too much else Stewart can do: aswritten, his role is notable mainly for itsunconvincing inconsistency. His solution tothis problem seems to be to play eachscene as a separate entity, and switchfrom boyish charm to hard-boiled cynicismto raging moral fervor as it is convenientfor him to do so, without regard to anykind of inner unity of the character. Thathe brings it oft is due, if anything, to hisremarkable rapport with an audience.Even so, one has rarely seen as edgy a per¬formance as this from Stewart; his discom¬fort seems plain, and, in the story's con¬text, is actually quite effective.The roles of the two young murderersare thankfully much more fully fleshedout. Farley Granger's Philip, the more re¬served of the pair, is a study in sullen un¬derplaying — his continual feelings of re¬luctance and dread, as well as hisforeboding of impending discovery arebeautifully conveyed in a performance cli¬maxing with a cunningly judged drunkscene. But the stand-out performance ofthe film is John Dali’s Brandon, a wickedlymanipulative heartless bastard with anasty sense of humor. Here is shameless,scene-stealing acting of the most artificialand irritating kind, carried to such a pitchthat it somehow works, perfectly captur¬ing the arrogant and pampered youngman who thinks of murder as an art. The homosexual undercurrents of his domi¬neering relationship with Philip are deftlycaught, as are his frequent flashes of dan¬gerous charm. With his insincere smilesand behind-the-back sneers, Dali seems tobe having as much fun in the movie asHitchcock himself.In many ways Rope is a curiosity. It real¬ly can’t be compared to such later achieve¬ments as Pear Window and Vertigo, nordoes it fit in comfortably with more con¬ventional Hitchcock thrillers such as No¬torious and North by Northwest. It’s aunique film in Hitchcock’s output, a bril¬liant technical exercise, as well as one so¬lution to an old cinematic problem, bring¬ing stageplays to the screen withoutmaking a film that is leaden and stage-bound. Had it been filmed conventionally,Rope might have seemed a hopelesslystodgy attempt at adapting theater tofilm, but thanks to its bravura camerawork, Rope is anything but stagey; itmakes giddy use of the possibilities of thecinematic medium Rope is an intriguingand dazzlingly fluid piece of work — andit's pure cinema. Hitchcock’s clevernessmay at times seem excessive, but that ispart of its appeal. And besides, you can’tblame him for trying, especially whenmost of what he tries is so irresistibly in¬genious.

JackLemmon, in his film debut, plays anhonest documentary filmmaker try¬ing to take Holliday home to meetMother in New Jersey, bringing tothe role his usual slightly hystericalsincerity. Peter Lawford is terrificas the smooth and slippery soap mil¬lionaire who wants what Hollidayhas and won't give up—her bill¬board among other things.Screenwriter Garson Kanin makesthe most of this clever situation, sa¬tirizing advertising, TV and star-struck gullibility through the wittydialogue Yet. it’s the performanceof Holliday, brilliantly droll, yet dis¬armingly fresh and sincere thatsteals the show. Although the char¬acter she portrays is naive and easi¬ly malleable at times, it is a far cryfrom the dumb blonde routine inwhich she later became trapped: theaudience is able to see the true ver¬satility of her acting ability. LSp,Law Auditorium, Thurs., July 19,8:30 p.m. $2.00. -CMCountry, a movie which opens in Chi¬cago later this month, stars Sam She¬pard and Jessica Lange and is thestory of a present-day family strug¬gling to keep their farm Or so said theinvitation to a preview screening thatwe were handed as we stood on astreet-corner downtown. I went inhoping for the best: to see some greatacting and to find out what it's like tobe a farmer. In the latter hope I wasdeeply disappointed. Country takesfor granted that the audience under¬stands the unique qualities of rurallife and concentrates on the plot. Thisapproach is more than disappointing— it seriously undermines the effecti¬veness of the film. At a crucial point,when the bank is threatening to fore¬close on the mortgage on the farm, Gil¬bert Ivy (Sam Shepard) says, “Youcan’t do this! Farming is a way of life!”The banker responds. “No. It's a busi¬ness.” The makers of the film assumethat we can fully sympathize with Gil;but my agreement with his statementwas solely intellectual. I cannot feelthe truth of it because I have alwayslived in urban and suburban areasand am a member of the bourgeoisie.Given my background. I couldn't helpbut see the situation from the bank'spoint of view; I was thus unable tomuster the concern for the main char¬acters which is necessary to become in¬volved in a film, and I could tell thatmost of the audience had the sameproblem. All that I could do was con¬centrate on the acting. Jessica Lange'sperformance was not good. In every¬day situations, she was delightfullynatural, but whenever she was calledupon to display strong emotion, as shewas a number of times, she fell short,looking as if she were embarrassed atsimulating powerful feelings and stillmore embarrassed at her inability toovercome her embarrassment. SamShepard, on the other hand, per¬formed brilliantly. He possesses whatis without a doubt the most expres¬sive face on American film today, aface which gives the viewer the abilityto read minds. The nuances of his per¬formance create a film about a manand his family within a film aboutthese poor people whose farm is aboutto be taken away from them and whothink up ingenious ways to try to saveit. The latter I would not recommend;the former is a film that you shouldsee. —Juanita RocheGrey City Journal 13 July 84Staff: Brian Campbell, Paul Crayton, Jesse Halvorsen, Louis Kaplan,Jae-Ha Kim, Michael Kotze, Tom Lyons, Rainer Mack, Jeff Makos.

They travel light — one van,two roadies, and their instruments. Butwhat Rank & File lack in income, they morethan make up for in talent.Driven by the creative juices of brothersChip and Tony Kinman, Rank & File aretrue to their name in that they are a peo¬ple’s band. They don’t assume that the au¬dience is incapable of enjoying somethingas simple as a good ol’ rock and roll showwithout the frills. There are no gimmicksChip Kinman of Rank & File here. No one wears make-up, women’sclothing or sequins. There are no elaboratelight shows, props, or back-up singers.Judging by the reaction of the capacitycrowd at the Park West, the audience ap¬preciated this straightforward honesty.The band reciprocated by treating them tounadulterated, pure rock music with astrong country backbone.For the Kinmans, country music comesnaturally; it’s in their blood. They weremarine brats who grew up in the Southwith their older brother and sister. Theywere weaned on their parents' JohnnyCash and Willie Nelson records.When they moved to California, they ar¬rived just in time for the surgence of thepunk movement. For lack of something bet¬ter to do, Chip began playing in bands. ItPhoto by Jae-Ha Kim wasn’t too long before he and Tony front¬ed their own band, the Dils. Though theywere notorious for grinding out painfullyfast songs with biting lyrics (Class War, IHate the Rich), they also wrote subtlesongs of love and loneliness (two of whichappear on their second Slash Ip Long GoneDead). When it became apparent that theywere growing away from their die-hardpunk following, the band split up.That’s when Chip and Aleiandro Escove-do, another punk veteran, began to kickaround the idea of playing the kind ofmusic that they wanted to play — countrymusic. They recruited Tony on bass and JimEvans on drums, while they handled theguitars. They relocated to the heart ofcountry music, Austin, Texas, and Rank &File was formed.Since their formation in 1982, the band’sline-up has undergone several changes.Alejandro departed to form a more rockoriented band with his brother called TrueBelievers. Junior Brown, his replacement,lasted only a few months before he wasasked to leave due to personal dif¬ferences. Then Evans decided he'd hadenough of touring, and he left earlier thisyear. This left only Chip and Tony. Aftermany auditions, they decided to add JeffRoss (who’d been suggested to them byDave Alvin of the Blasters) on guitar andformer Chicagoan and club veteran BobbyKahr on drums.The result is the tightest line-up sinceRank & File's formation. The new membersmore than make up for the gap left by thedepartures of Escovedo and Evans.The band has a lot more material todraw upon than when they toured lastsummer and fall. They play less “oldcountry favorites” and more Kinman/Kin-man originals. Their set begins with thetitle cut from their new album, Long GoneDead. Long before this song is over, thedance floor of the Park West is populatedwith enthusiasts out for a good time. Astrong indication of the band’s potentiallongevity (and a sign of their ability toescape pigeonholing) is in the audience it¬self. Sure, there are people wearing stringties and cowboy boots, but there are alsopseudo-punks bopping around (I countedat least three Billy Idol lookalikes), as wellas your occasional preppy.Sound of the Rain, complete with a mel¬ancholy harmonica solo and twangy guitarwork by Jeff and Chip, was written duringthe Kinman’s Dils’ days. The deceptivelysweet vocal delivery covers up a lot ofanger that the Kinmans must have feltduring their punk heyday. “And we’re aband,” they sing, “that’s playing music forthe dead”.In a way, this song applies to today'spopular music audience as well. While many Americans are willing to listen toanything new from England, they are lessreceptive to their own country's musicians.Bands like Rank & File, REM and the RedRockers are but a few of America's finest,yet none have received the airplay thatradio programmers allot to inferior Britishbands like the Thompson Twins or HowardJones.Even so, Tony Kinman maintains thathe’s content with the critical success thatthey’ve received since their inception. Hejokes that he “wouldn’t know how to actfamous.” But since last year, Rank & Filehave gotten a considerable amount ofmedia attention, having appared onMTV’s The Cutting Edge, NBC’s The RockPalace, and the nationally syndicated (al¬beit insipid) Thicke of the Night. They lip-synched their way into the living rooms ofAmerica.Their only cover on Long Gone Dead is anold Lefty Frissell tune called I’m an Old OldMan. It works great live. The lyrics areaverage and not nearly as innovative asRank & File's own material, but it’s enter¬taining nonetheless to watch Chip (wholooks all of 22 himself) sing about being adirty old man.One advantage that Rank & File havewhich most bands lack is the beautiful har¬mony created by Chip and Tony. Bands likethe Everly Brothers, the Beatles and theBee Gees used harmonies to their advan¬tage in the past, but with the prevalenceof screaming vocals in the 70s, and over¬dubbed synth-heavy vocals in the 80s,true harmonizing has been rare. The factthat Chip and Tony each have an incrediblerange is also to their advantage. They areable to cover a wide spectrum of materialeffectively.This is perhaps best embodied in theirballad Timeless Love. Chip starts off thebeautiful song by singing about the idealtype of love: “Timeless love/that’s whateverybody dreams of/it’s the love thatwon’t fade away with the day/...I know Ifound it when you hold me”. With the ca¬dence of a drum, Tony's booming voiceoverrides Chip's dreamworld with reality:"If it’s a joke/why aren’t you laughing?/Ifwe’re in pain/...my heart is breaking.”Bands like Rank & File are few and farbetween. They are a rare breed of puristswho sing about what they believe in,whether it’s the sad plight of illegal aliensin Coyote, the self-explanatory Klansman.or the pains of love in Lucky Day. When theconglomerates which run the record in¬dustry are ready to accept the public’s in¬telligence rather than insult it, then it maybe possible for Rank & File to be heard ona mass commercial level. Until then, fanscan enjoy them at clubs, fairs, colleges,and any other venue that will book them.AN AMERICAN IN MOSCOWby Kim ShivelyRussian JournalAndrea LeeVintage Books, 1984Picture this: A Russian open-air marketwhere remarkably capitalistic farmerssell hard-to-find produce at outrageousprices and make an immense profit.Or this: A country that deeply criticizesAmerica yet worships her culture, fashionand music to an almost manic degree.Or this: A young Russian citizen is closelyfollowed by the KGB, divorced by his wife,ostracized by his family and denounced bythe Party just for thinking and discussingideas “unbecoming” to the Communist sys¬tem.Andrea Lee’s first popular-writing en¬deavor, Russian Journal, reveals littlescenes like these of ordinary — and oftenextraordinary — life in the Soviet Unionthat no textbook or political journal couldoffer. Lee sets down an absorbing, clearand concise journalistic narrative of herpersonal experiences as the wife of a Har¬vard doctoral candidate • spending tenmonths at the Moscow State University.She herself had never before studied norvisited the Soviet Union, but as she statesin her preface, she is more concerned withpersonal impressions of Russian societyand is not trying to fully or objectivelydocument Soviet life. "Each entry presentsa small piece of Russian reality as seen byan American whose vision, if not refinedby study, was at least not much distortedby prejudice for or against Communism.”Lee successfully recounts these "realities”in an interesting, light style that holds thereader’s attention from the first chapterto the last.Lee’s entries often consist of descrip¬tions of individual Soviet citizens sheknew well or briefly encountered. The en¬tries are also often little vignettes ofevents she experienced either in normalSoviet life or as a foreigner allowed toglimpse at the hypocritical, bourgeois li¬ festyle of the Soviet elite citizens whorank high in the party.For example, Lee relates her first en¬counter with a cat-like biack marketeernamed Olga who paws at Lee’s clothing(particularly the blue jeans) and personalpossessions as if they were made of gold,or maybe rubles. At first, Lee is suprised,then feels guilty at the enormous contrastbetween her companions’ spartan livingconditions which are normal in Russia, andher own comparatively large allotment ofmaterial goods, normal in middle-classAmerica. Lee also learns from this blackmarket experience “how ironic (it is) thatthe Soviet system creates monsters of cap¬italism” even as it forces its repressedmembers to publicly uphold its Communistdoctrine. The Soviets continually scornAmericans, accusing them of being soullessmaterialists, but Lee defends herself as anAmerican to her class of English-learningJews who are planning to emigrate:"What I like about America is amazinglysimple: that I can talk there without stop¬ping to censor my thoughts, and that I canwander freely without passport or identi¬fication papers, without concern for enter¬ing a ‘zapretnaya zona' (forbidden zone).Minor-sounding things, but they bear uponthe most important liberties in life: fromconfinement and fear.”Yet, Russian Journal is not a criticism ofthe Soviet Union but a clear and colorfulpicture of the lifestyles of ordinary Sovietcitizens. Lee describes the severe housingshortage in which families are squeezedinto small, cramped apartments. But shealso remarks on the refreshing hospitalityof friends and relatives who are alwayswilling to house a guest (or a political fugi¬tive, in some cases) for a night or longer.Lee reiterates the complaint of the Sovietwomen who are forced by the system tohold normal, state-designated jobs, butwho are also forced — and quite often bea¬ten — into keeping up the home, tendingthe children and standing in line manyhours per day just to buy basic, necessaryfood items. Contrary to what the Party would wish,Soviets have an immense, insatiable curi¬osity and admiration for America andAmerican culture, according to Lee. Yetmost maintain a fierce loyalty to their Sla¬vic motherland and are surprisingly proudof their history, especially of the aristoc¬racy of pre-revolution days.What is most interesting of all in thisbook concerns the ironic, hypocritical exis¬tence of the affluent within the Soviet sys¬tem. Many of the high officials of the partyas well as patriotic artists — specificallyVictor Louis and composer Tikhon Krenni-hov in this book — lead remarkablywealthy and privileged lives, approvedby the state, which contrast sharply withthe lives of the average citizens. Thesefew elite own huge, private estates andare allowed to shop at the most exclusivestores that sell foreign and rare domesticfood, liquor and clothing. They can also af¬ford unheard-of luxuries such as cars, tele¬vision sets, genuine American clothing andmany more material items that anaverage Russian can only dream about.This wealthy class is a blatant contradic¬tion to the Marxist doctrine which the gov¬ernment strives so passionately touphold.Lee's style is thorough and interesting,reflecting her journalistic backgound atHarvard. Although her variations in verbtense tend to be confusing at times, her de¬tailed descriptions are effective and en¬joyable. But she reveals little about her¬self as a human being, and we learn almostnothing about her husband or their back¬ground. This leaves the reader wonderingfrom what social perspective this is writ¬ten — middle class? Upper middle class?Liberal? Conservative? etc.Russian Journal is a must for anyone in¬terested in Soviet culture and lifestyles.Lee’s description of the repressed, coura¬geous people is a fascinating and neces¬sary account that should be ready by anAmerican who wishes to get a better un¬derstanding of this very proud and verydifferent civilization. Besides being ofgreat informative value, Russian Journalis lively, amusing, and just plain fun toread.4—FRIDAY, JULY 13, 1984—THE GREY CITY JOURNAL
