! -*». .. .. ;The Chicago MaroonVolume 94, No. 56 The University of Chicago - Friday, May 31 1985U of C to cancel Venture Prog,By Jennifer MechemStudents returning nextyear looking for internshipsmay find that things arebeing done a little differentlyin' the Career and PlacementServices (CAPS) office. As ofJune 30, the University ispulling out of the College Ven¬ture Program to set up itsown internship program,which will be more cost-effec¬tive and will better meet theneeds of students.The College Venture Pro¬gram, headquartered atBrown University in Provi¬dence, is a consortium of 10private colleges which pro¬vides internships for studentstaking time off.The University has been inthe program since 1980, andrecently completed a five-review which led to the deci¬sion to withdraw. AssociateDean of the College RichardTaub said that Venture isplacing about 12 students ayear, but is costing “some¬where around $11,000 a year’’out of the work-study budget,which is separate from theCollege budget. According toJoan MacDonald, Coordina¬tor of Student Employment atCAPS, the College VentureProgram is a good one but isnot appropriate for the U of Cfor a number of reasons.First, most of the intern¬ships offered through Ventureare on the East Coast, butmany UC students would prefer to find jobs in Chicagoor the Midwest. Consequent¬ly, there are not enough posi¬tions in this area to satisfy thedemand.Secondly, Chicago studentsusually want business-relatedpositions such as advertising,marketing, or financial ser-vies, whereas most Ventureinternships are gearedtowards social-service or en¬vironmental positions. Thefew business offerings arehighly competititve and arethus harder to get.Last, Venture specificallydoes not offer summer-onlypositions, though they dooffer internships which runthrough the summer and intopart of the academic year.Perhaps because of thequarter system, many stu¬dents are reluctant to taketime off for an internship.The combination of thesefactors is responsible for thelow placement rate, saidMacDonald. “The Ventureprogram has been very goodfor a small number of stu¬dents,” but has not been ableto serve the internship needsof all of them.One student, MaryanneCurrie, has high praise for theprogram. She had a “reallygreat” job with a theatre artscompany in New York, andfelt that Venture was verysupportive and helpful duringthe job-seeking process, and remained available duringthe internship. Currie citedcases of two other studentswho had had some troublewith their placements; Ven¬ture acted as an intermediarywith the companies, workingout the problem for one, andhelping the other to changejobs.Currie postulated that somestudents didn’t consider Ven¬ture interships because theywere scared off by the idea ofjoining a program if all theywanted was an internship.“Those who know what theywant usually go directly tothe internship files and getone on their own,” she said.Currie, who now works inCAPS, believes that the Col¬lege’s own internship pro¬gram can be just as good asthe Venture program, andthat it will be more accessibleand flexible.

The surveywas a random sampling ofstudents in the Universitysent out through themailroom.The most significant resultof the survey was the appar¬ent split in the effectivenessof MAB in reaching graduatestudents and undergraduates.Approximately 2/3 of all un¬dergrads surveyed reported that they had attended MABevents, while only 1/3 of thegrads surveyed had done so.Not surprisingly, grads weremore likely than undergradsto say that they would attendmore MAB events if othersorts of music were offered.Yet this result becomes am¬biguous because far more un¬dergrads than grads said theywould attend other forms ofentertainment such as danceor comedy. Additionally, 50%of the undergrads felt thatMAB should expand beyondits contemporary music for¬mat, as compared to 47% ofHopkins dumps MCATsBy Ciaran OBroinThe Johns Hopkins MedicalSchool has announced it willno longer require the MedicalCollege Admissions Test(MCAT) as part of their ap¬plication procedure in an ef¬fort by the school’s adminis¬trators to combat “pre-medsyndrome.” The MCAT is in¬tended to test the student inbiology, chemistry, physics,reading comprehension,problem solving, and quanti¬tative analysis, and is re¬quired by virtually all medi¬cal schools.Richard S. Ross, dean ofthe Hopkins medical school,says the MCAT encouragespre-meds to take morescience courses at the ex¬pense of humanities courses,depriving them of a wellrounded education. “They be¬lieve that the more sciencethe student takes, the higherwill be his MCAT score.Therefore, no matter whatthe schools say about the needfor a broad general educa¬tion, the student will takemore science.” Norman D.Anderson, the school’s deanof admissions, added that“manv students are distort¬ing the real purpose of educa¬ tion by striving to excel in astandardized test of dubiousmerit that simply measurestheir achievement at a singlepoint in time.” (Chronicle ofHigher Education 5/17/85)Joseph Ceithaml, dean ofthe University of ChicagoPritzker School of Medicine,said that they have consi¬dered this option and decidedto keep the MCAT as a re¬quirement for all applicants.He said that the claims thatthe test adversely effects pre-med education “are not sub¬stantiated”, citing this col¬lege’s extensive humanitiesrequirements of all studentsas an example. The recent in¬clusion of an experimentalwriting section in the test, hesaid, is another example ofthe MCAT’s ability to test fora well rounded education.He added that “there is avery good correlation be¬tween a student’s perfor¬mance on the test and theirperformance in the first twoyears of medical school.”Ceithaml does not expectmany schools to follow JohnsHopkins’ decision to drop thetest, “so all medical schoolapplicants will end up takingthe test anyway.” the grads. Forty-five percentof the graduate students werenot sure whether the formatshould be changed at all com¬pared to 26% of the under¬grads. What is clear is thatundergrad satisfaction withthe program is greater thangraduate satisfaction. 49% ofthe undergrads were at leastsatisfied with the MAB pro¬gram as opposed to only 29%of the graduates. The gradu¬ates again showed ambiguityon this question with 47% re¬sponding they were not sure ifthey were satisfied.Awareness of the eventsalso seemed to be a problemwith the graduate students.Undergrads responded thatthey found out about eventsthrough a number of meth¬ods. Graduates relied almostentirely on the Maroon andposters around campus, thusincreasing the chance thatthey might be unaware of anevent.Mary Jerz, Program Direc¬tor of Student Activities, ack¬nowledged this weakness.MAB hopes to increaseoverall publicity next yearand concentrate on grad stu¬dents by devices such asusing the graduatemailrooms.Perhaps the most inter¬esting result of the survey isnot from the questions, butfrom the written comments.A large number suggestedbigger “name acts” for theconcerts. Jerz said that thisyear MAB tried a largernumber of smaller acts, butthat next year the trend willbe towards fewer concertswith bigger acts and maybe avideo dance or two. Jerznoted that there were limita¬tions on the acts MAB couldbook, not only because of fi¬nancial limitations which aresignificant compared to a big¬ger school, but also due to thelimited size of Mandel Hall,continued on page seven time, the University of Chica¬go should not house the ArmyMath Institute. However, thewhole issue may be moot,since Rothenberg has “gottenthe word from Cornell people,it’s going to Cornell.”Dave Stewart, the associateDirector of University Rela¬tions at Cornell University,however, denied any knowl¬edge that they were going toreceive the contract, citingthat the decision would not beknown until the middle ofJune or late June. WalterMassey, vice president forResearch Programs at Uni¬versity of Chicago, could notbe reached for comment.Previous University of Chi¬cago debate centered aroundthe Chicago Maroon, in theforms of editorials by Editor-in-Chief Frank Luby andRothenberg, and in an inter¬view with Massey. The cruxof the debate rests upon thequestion of whether any at¬tempt at greenmail, using theMath Institute’s large purse,which dwarfs our Math De¬partment’s budget, couldcause the University to de¬viate from strictly scientificresearch.Rothenberg claims in hismemo to the Council that “Adetailed study of the activityof the Wisconsin Institute...(the AMRC Papers)... estab¬lishes that it was deeply in¬volved in the development ofmilitary tactics and wea¬ponry.” He also cites aScience article that details re¬cent attempts by the DOD toexercise control over non-classified research, with clashes at Stanford and Mi¬chigan being the most recentexample.Massey, on the other hand,has repeatedly claimed that“We (the University of Chica¬go) don’t accept contracts orgrants in which anybody cantell us what to do once themoney is here...” Cornell’sStewart further cited thatStanford’s resistance, to DODassertions that foreignersshould not be allowed to workon a particular project, wassuccessful in bringing about achange for that particularpolicy.Even though it appears thatthe Army Math Institute willnot be on campus, regardlessof the University’s position onthe matter, the lack of anystated policy on defense re¬search is a problem that isseeking a time for its resolu¬tion.If indeed Cornell does re¬ceive the Institute, it may beas a result of the lack of resis¬tance there and the flurry of ithere. According to Stewartthere was no public debate,“although I imagine therewere some during the facultyhearings.” The lack of debateat Cornell could be attributedto their policy that “prohibitsDefense research.”The Rothenberg memopoints out that with the Rea¬gan Administration’s re¬quested budget of 26 milliondollars for Star Wars. "TheArmy Math Research Insti¬tute is undoubtedly only thefirst of the many proposals ofthis character that we willhave to deal with.”(VHzker School of Medialopen dressrehearsalTuesday, June. 11760pm.Admission FreePartially funded by -the S6FC and H.5C..Handel Hall 00;';xis availatic i pate 1f-quartei>ate the <average?r of noiso availl receiptmust be i;t be pai<luarterwmmiiiilstudents for one qiperiod.

This, in turn, extends civiland human rights to the Gay and Les¬bian community.Currently, aldermen both from themayor’s side and the Vrdolyak bloc op¬pose the ordinance while others sup¬port its passage. Clifford Kelly of the21st Ward speculates that those aider-men oppose its passage for either reli¬gious or homorphic reasons.According to Kit Duffey, acting Ma¬son for the Gay and Lesbian communi¬ty in the mayor’s office, Mayor HaroldWashington is in complete accord withthe ordinance. In fact, he has an¬nounced his approval publically. Sheadded it’s a simple matter oi humanrights.Steve Jones, board member of the In¬dependent Voters of Illinois Indepen¬dent Precint Organization and the co¬chair of the Gay and Lesbian caucas incity hall believes that the Vrdolyakbloc opposes the ordinance. Most ofthese aldermen represent areas of thecity where Gay and Lesbian rights arenot an issue commented Jones.But Guy Charles, co-chair of Actionstated that Vrdolyak met withmembers of his group organization inApril and announced his support for itspassage. In fact, one of Vrdoylak’s al¬dermen Jerry Orbach arranged themeeting after a Gay and Lesbian rallyat Lincoln Park in July.At this meeting in mid April, GuyCharles claims that the ordinanceissue was discussed with Vrdoylak, buthe could not comment on the results ofthe meeting, for it may obstruct anyfurther action. Kelly speculates that Vrdoylak sup¬ports the ordinance because he is nowacting as chairman of the Cook CountyCentral Committee and it is only in theorganization’s interest to support theordinance since Gay community hasunited politically. Joseph Novak, one ofVrdolyak’s aides said that Vrdolyak iscurrently working on the language ofthe ordinance with John Orbach. Themeeting with Action members did takeplace. He added that this was all the in¬formation Vrdolyak wants to discloseat the moment.Because most aldermen in the citycouncil do not favor the Gay and Les¬bian civil ordinance, its chances forpassing have been slim since 1971 whenAlderman Clifford Kelly introduced it.Kelly himself voted to have the ordi¬The Hillel Foundation of the Univer¬sity of Chicago will honor its director,Rabbi Daniel Liefer, at a luncheon Sun¬day celebrating his 20 years of ser¬vice.Originally from Brooklyn, NewYork, Liefer came to Hyde Park in1964, prior to which he was in school atHarvard College, Hebrew Universityand the Jewish Theological Seminary.Also, before coming to Chicago heserved as a chaplain for two years inthe US Air Force.In his first 10 years on campus,Liefer was active in numerous nationaland local organizations includingSANE, the Midwest Committee forConscientious Objection, and the Chi¬cago Clergy Consultation Service forProblem Pregnancy. More recently, hehas served in many capacities in theInternational Association of HillelDirectors, on several national Hillelcommittees, and for four years as pres- council journal until enough supportgathers.In order for the ordinance to pass inthe council, 26 votes are necessary.“Not until enough support becomes ev¬ident will the ordinance be brought be¬fore the council again. The Gay andLesbian community is currently lobby¬ing aldermen who oppose the ordi¬nance,’’ Kelly commented.In supporting the ordinance IrwinKeller, spokesperson for the Gay andLesbian Alliance, GALA here at theUniversity of Chicago, commentedthat Gala has been actively involvedsince the summer. Ten members ofGALA were present at the first councilmeeting this year to demonstrate thatthe Gay community is a visible consti¬tuency.

He also served for four years onthe United campus Ministry of the Uni¬versity of Chicago.Liefer’s scholarly interests rangefrom Midrasch and the Kabbalah tohistory and anthropology of religion.He has had articles published on creat¬ing new life-cycle rituals and on writ¬ing new Ketubot (marriage con¬tracts').Liefer’s wife, Myra, is an associateprofessor in the Department of childpsychiatry at Billings Hospital. Theyhave one daughter. Ariel, age 12. In addition, Keller noted that head ofthe Moral Majority, Fundamentalistpreacher Hiram Crawford’s oppositionfor the ordinance continues to hamperits passage.

It was at this point that I realizedthat I had quite a few gripes about theU of C’s athletic department. - Andwhat a coincidence that the surveycame out at the same time as DaveFialkowski’s letter (May 21)! Thesurvey was sent out to athletes whohave participated in at least one varsi¬ty sport within the last 4 years. The em¬phasis was on the pros and cons of allaspects of being on a team.When I got to the part about coachesI found my pressure rising. After beingon a sport for 4 years I guess this is thefirst time that I have looked at theathletic program as a whole and coach-wise it is pretty pathetic.Just as Dave pointed out that thefootball team, while he was here, wentthrough 3 coaches, the softball playershave experienced the same ordeal.Now, how can anyone expect todevelop a solid and consistent teamwhen the staffing is constantly chang¬ing? It has passed the point of frustra¬tion but I honestly can’t blame thosecoaches who left for doing so. Un¬ fortunately, they have been some of thebest that the school has had since I’vebeen here. The remarks quoted byDave of Mary Jean Mulvaney (MJM)are all too familiar. I have heard timeand again that the department refusesto pay decent salaries and consequent¬ly the athletes suffer. Why can’t the Uof C come off the bucks? MJM has noright getting mad at a coach wholeaves for better opportunities.Not only is the attrition rate of thecoaches high, but when it comes timeto finding a replacement the depart¬ment tends to automatically promotethe assistants to heads and in pretty ob¬vious cases (that is, obvious toplayers) this policy has led to a poorlycoached team. This philosophy must bechanged as the department needs torealize that you can have all the talentin the world but if the coaching is in¬competent the team is going to have ahard time excelling.One final topic that needs to bebrought to the attention of the athleticdepartment is that of allowing prettymuch anyone who wants to be on asport to able to do so, despite theirabilities. This is not true for all theteams, as some do make cuts but a good example is the size of the 1983Volleyball team. There were close to 25players on the team in a sport thatplays 6 at a time! This is enough for 4strings plus. By the end of the seasonthere were players who still didn’tknow each others names. There werepeople on the team who had neverplayed before but who thought “itmight be fun to go out." This is totallyunfair to those players that aretalented and would like to compete on alevel that is challenging. Having lesstalented people on the teams createsanimosity between those who get toplay and those who don’t. Since theyare members of the team I can’t blameThe real tennis IM tourney scoresthem for wanting to play, but it’s notfair to those players who have alreadydeveloped the skills. The College level,in most cases, is too late to master asport and the game should be left to beplayed by those who can bring in themost successful team for UC.Hear, hear Dave, I’m glad you brokethe ice on the state of the athleticdepartment. It’s time something bedone about it. The U of C has the talentin the players but MJM needs to recon¬sider the philosophies that are practic¬ed before winning teams can becomecommon name around here.Name withheld upon request.To the editor:This letter has two purposes, the firstbeing to expose Matt Schaefer’s IMWire investigative unit, and secondlyto clear up any misunderstandingsabout the IM tennis tournament.Matt Schaefer is a man who makeshis own fun, for he knows he won’t findany in any other way at the U of C.

The alliance, through itssupport of such campus groups as theOrganization of Black Students (OBS)has presented conferences, films andforums to the University communitywhich have addressed the full range ofstrategies and tactics necessary to iso¬late and defeat the apartheid regimesand liberate the whole of Southern Afri¬ca.As students, we wholeheartedly en¬dorse the organized and principled mo¬tions of fellow student activists acrossthe country who have called for theiruniversities to divest. It is a greatsource of inspiration to see many of thedivestment movements succeed, andwe stand in appreciation of the lessonsthat we can learn from their decade-long struggle. We recognize the need for a broad-based movement callingfor full divestment by the U of C — andwe stand fully ready to support such amovement.The Maroon of Tuesday, 21 of May,1985 stated that the AASA worked in as¬sociation with the Ad Hoc Committeefor A Free South Africa (AHCFSA) inorganizing the divestment rally held atthe main quad. This was incorrect. TheAnti-Apartheid Student Alliance doesnot endorse and did not participate inthe rally called for Wednesday, 22May, 1985. The alliance was joined inthe action by leadership from OBS, theBlack Graduate Forum (BGF), andthe Afro-American Campus Ministry(AACM). We feel that the mobilizingeffort conducted by the AHCFSA wasnot systematic and was conducted in aclimate of adventurism.

In the one blockalone surrounding the El there is acocktail lounge and two liquor storesthat are open to the wee hours of themorning. This causes any number ofindividuals to be “hanging’’ around theEl.

We deplore the lack of decencyand the disregard for unity evidencedby the absence of Black and broad-based Third World forces among theranks of the Ad Hoc Committee. Thisabsence is even more striking when itis realized that the recent three yearhistory of organizing against apartheidon this campus has all been initiatedand led mainly by the Black studentgroups.The Anti-Apartheid Student Allianceremains ready to collaborate with allhonest forces in the University commu¬nity who abhor apartheid in all itsforms. The necessary educational, po¬litical, and informational programsleading to direct support and actionagainst the crimes of apartheid requirea thorough commitment from those ofus who take up these tasks. This isespecially true to the leadership ofthese struggles. The alliance looks for¬ward to continuing its relationship withthe Black student groups on campusthrough their organizations, OBS,BGF, and AACM. Realizing the funda¬mental linkages between oppressedpeoples, we will also look forward toworking with The Committee in Soli¬darity with the Peoples of Iran, the No¬vember 29th Committee for Palestine,groups organized around CentralAmerican solidarity, and other ThirdWorld groupings, in presentingforums, conferences, and long-term or¬ganizing which will fully address thestruggle against apartheid. This prin¬cipled, multi-national unity is the foun¬dation for effective, meaningful stu¬dent activism.The Anti-Apartheid Student Alliance wants to read it. But, it seems, basedon the number of people who have readand believed the story accusing my do¬ubles partner, Alex Farber, and myselfof plotting and scheming our way intothe finals, Matt’s eccentric humor andhis choke hold on the absurd is lost onso many people at this totally witlessuniversity.Schaefer fabricated that story forfun, and for fun Alex and I played it upin Matt’s presence, giving him moreficticious information for the story sothat his readers could enjoy it thatmuch more. But now we are sorry weplayed along, for people all over nowbelieve that Alex and I are slimy andcrooked.

We played asemi-final match and won 67-1, 6-1, andwe lost in the finals to a very toughteam 4-6, 4-6. As for the preliminarymatches, we won them without play¬ing, to be sure, but everything wasdone under the watchful eye of the IMdepartment. I should also add thatAlex and I are pretty mean coin flip¬pers as well.Mike IlaganFirst year student in the CollegeBlack on ApartheidTo the editor:The debate over the University’s in¬vestments in corporations doing busi¬ness in South Africa must be seen in thelarger context. Students and otherscalling for divestment are echoing thecall of every anti-apartheid group,trade union, and legitimate black lead¬er in South Africa. And in opposing di¬vestment, the University administra¬tion is in essence taking the position ofthe apartheid regime, which alsospeaks of “reform,” but punishes sup¬port for divestment as “terrorism”.Curtis BlackThe Chicago Maroon is the official student newspaper of the University of Chicago.It is published twice weekly, on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Coors a ‘respectable’ companyTo the editor:John Conlon’s attack on Coors in theMay 21 ediion of the Maroon (Coors re¬vealed: the history of a racist institu¬tion) is an unwarranted leftist swipe ata highly respected company. I wouldlike to remind Mr. Conlon that 60 Min¬utes investigator Mike Wallace did astory within the last two years that ad¬dressed many of Conlon’s criticisms ofCoors. The 60 Minutes expose showedCoors in a very favorable light and re¬vealed a frustrated and underhandedunion organizer who could not sell theunion “benefits” to a satisfied work¬force. Moreover, on a strictly volun¬tary basis, many workers--black,white, and hispanic--turned out to ex¬toll the benefits of working for theCoors brothers in a forum conductedby Mr. Wallace. Coors employees areextremely well paid, enjoy a pleasantwork atmosphere, and are providedone of the most liberal benefits pack¬ages available in corporate Americatoday. In return, Coors demands a high degree of personal integrity and moralupstanding. It should be the employ¬er’s prerogative to expect a code of de¬cency to be maintained by the employ¬ees both on and off the job because theyrepresent the company and their ac¬tions reflect on the firm as a whole. If aperson does not feel he/she can live bya relatively stringent code of behavior,then they should look for employmentelsewere. Simple as that!Mr. Conlon’s personal attack on theCoors brothers for their conservativeaffiliations particularly highlights hisradically leftist bias. The HeritageFoundation and the Hoover Instituteare both highly respected institutions.His insinuation that many conserva¬tive organizations are racist is particu¬larly appalling and wholly unfounded. Isuggest that Mr. Conlon redirect hisenergies to issues that stand a ghost ofa chance at credibility.Oliver (’amph^llGSBviewpoints 5Tho Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 31, 1985 ■■Rhetoric and promise won't stop ApartheidBy Ravi Raj maneThe arguments presented for a con¬structive engagement policy legitimiz¬ing US economic involvement in SouthAfrica are characterized by ever-opti-mistic rhetoric and sizable promises.The proponents of this policy suggestthat it is universally beneficial: SouthAfrican black laborers, their whiteoverseers, the white-minority-led gov¬ernment as well as US corporationsand their investors all should stand togain from this policy, despite the gen¬erally adversarial relationship be¬tween these groups. Yet does the blackSouth African laborer really profitfrom the 14 billion dollars (State De¬partment figures, 1982) pumped intoSouth Africa by US corporations andbanks? Given the restrictions whichcurb their mobility, right to landtneure, civil rights, and access to edu¬cation and health services underApartheid, how can the plight of SouthAfrican blacks be improved if the verybarriers erected by Apartheid are but¬tressed by constructive engagement?Constructive engagement holds thatSouth African reforms as well as US in¬terests are best served Ipy encouraginggreater cultural and economic linkswith South Africa. It is believed thatthese links will result in such an expan¬sive economy that the white minoritywill have to enact liberal reform andwork towards dismantling Apartheid,so that blacks can play a greater role inthe expanded economy. The ties whichhave stimulated such a successfuleconomy will in time nurture and sup¬port what Robert Fatton in “AfricanStudies Review” (3/84) has called the“political ascendancy of a modernizingTo the editor:In a letter to the Maroon on May 17,1985 President Hanna Gray explained“the University’s policy with respect toinvestments in corporations that dobusiness in South Africa.” While per¬sonally condemming the system ofapartheid in South Africa, she empha¬sized that the policy of the University’sBoard of Trustees is to invest in “com¬panies that act in accordance with theSullivan principles.”The Sullivan principles, a voluntarycode of conduct initiated by ReverendLeon Sullivan, are involed by officialsin Washington, the corporations doingbusiness in South Africa, and HannaGray alike as a “deflector of criti¬cism” and as a legitimization of theireconomic support for the racist systemof apartheid. According to HannaGray, corporations complying withSullivan principles pursue “policies inthe work place diametrically opposedto the system by introducing fair em¬ployment practices and equal rightsfor their workers.” We strongly dis¬agree. We believe that the time hascome to examine the Sullivan princi¬ples critically.Signers of the six Sullivan Principlespledged to support a series of work¬place reforms in South Africa, includ¬ing the ending of desegregation inlocker and dining facilities, and washrooms; the provision of training andadvancement opportunities for blacks;and a payment of equal wages forequal work. Signatory companies alsoagree to try to improve health andother services for blacks.The Sullivan principles are merely apublic relations effort to respond toblack demands which the companiesrecognize as too strong to ignore. Theprinciples have not and cannot changethe structure of apartheid, a system oflegalized racism which reduces Afri¬cans to “units of labor”. Nor can it sig¬nificantly alter the working conditionsfor the blacks in that country.The US companies employ less thanone percent of the total work force ofabout ten million. About half of theseworkers are employed by Sullivan sig¬natories. According to a survey con¬ducted by Arthur D. Little Company,only 38% of the employees of suchfirms are black, while 44% are white.This means that when Hanna Grayspeaks of “introducing fair employ- autocracy of white elites” whp will re¬alize that their bullish economy wouldbest be served by an increased bureau¬cracy. The resultant demand for civilservants would promote the gradual in¬clusion of blacks into the political andeconomic order of the country, therebytransforming the country into a multi¬racial democracy.It seems rather unlikely, however,that the white, racist oligarchy willpeacefully dismantle the system ofApartheid, since it is precisely fromthe inequity of this system that theyderive their power. University of Cali¬fornia (Berkeley) historian, FrederickHale, notes that the typical Afrikanerenvisions himself or herself as per¬forming a mission for God by civilizingthe blacks who are “children of Ham”shrouded in the darkness and anarchyof their meaningless lives. The whiteogligarchs owe their privileges toSouth Africa’s retention of this ethno¬centric vestige of 17th century imperi¬alism. To hope that “constructive en¬gagement” will persuade theApartheid regime to have a massivechange of heart and to forego its racistpolicies is preposterous.Perhaps the most frequent rallyingpoint of the constructive engagementcamp is the implementation of the Sul¬livan Principles by some US corpora¬tions in South Africa. The six-point Sul¬livan Principles, developed by the Rev.Leon Sullivan, a General Motors exec¬utive, eight years ago, call for wageimprovements and programs to im¬prove black workers’ training andhousing, along with the abolition ofworkplace segregation. Yet, of thement practices and equal rights” forblack workers through Sullivan princi¬ples, she is discussing only 20,000 peo¬ple, out of the black work force of morethan seven million.Furthermore, the problems faced bythe blacks in the work place cannot beseparated from those encountered atother levels of daily life. As the BlackAllied Workers of South Africa haspointed out: “Black workers’ interestextend beyond the factory: they extendto the getto where black workers staytogether in hostels under squalid condi¬tions... to the stringent, irksome, andhumiliatory applications of influx con¬trol (pass) laws... to the lack of politi¬cal power and machinery.”The Sullivan Principles do not andcannot change the structure of aparth¬eid. They confine themselves almostentirely to work-place reforms, raisingno fundamental objection to the systemof apartheid itself. Moreover, theyallow a continuing flow of money andtechnology to South Africa whichstrengthen the existing unjust system.South Africa has been a profitableplace for US companies to operate.Corporate executives are responsibleto stockholders whose first concern hasto be the profitability of operations.Neither in the United States nor inSouth Africa do corporations exist toreform the society from which theyprofit. US companies consider them¬selves guests of the South African gov¬ernment. They abide by the legal sys¬tem that institutionalizes apartheid.Contrary to Hanna Gray’s asumption,the Sullivan principles are structurallyincapable of bringing about “signifi¬cant social change”.If change is to occur the apartheidsystem must be totally eliminated. TheSullivan Principles deal with superfi¬cial reforms in areas of little concernto black South Africans. Black SouthAfricans demand real political power:the right to vote, to make laws, toshape the economic future of theircountry. They want to be free, to livewith their families where they choose,and to walk in the streets without wor¬rying abut whether policemen will ar¬rest them. Africans are not strugglingto reform apartheid, they want nothingless than the abolition of the racist sys¬tem. Hanna Gray’s “constructive ac¬tion”, and Ronald Reagan’s “construc¬tive engagement”, instead of bringing 350-400 US corporations in South Afri¬ca, less than 150 are signatories of thePrinciples. Only about 66,000 of SouthAfrica’s 6 million black workers — justover 1 percent — are affected by theSullivan Principles. Not only do theseguidelines fail to reach the vast majori¬ty of individuals and corporations, butRev. Sullivan himself has admittedthat his Principles have proved to beineffective in setting an example forSouth African companies and in pro¬viding a force for evolutionary change.Furthermore, for the Sullivan Princi¬ples to promise parity in wages be¬tween the races supposes that blacksand whites have equal acfcess to all cor¬porate positions. This, of course, is notthe case. Whites assume most of themanagerial and administrative posi¬tions, while blacks are usually relegat¬ed to menial labor which requires littleskill or education.In her 1983 report to the EpiscopalChurch of South Africa, ElizabethSchmidt studied the consequences ofthe six Sullivan principles for the fewUS corporate signatories. She conclud¬ed that:In a few brief lines, the funda¬mental weakness of the SullivanPrinciples is revealed; the Prin¬ciples address corporate employ¬ment practices as if they occur ina vacuum, as if the bottom line isthe desegregation of toilets andrecreation areas, rather than theUS corporate support of Aparth¬eid structures. The Sixth Reportultimately exposes the SullivanPrinciples for what they are —the icebergan end to apartheid further entrenchand strengthen that system.In a four-page document the MotorAssemblers’ and ComponentWorkers’s Union of South Africa(MACWUSA) have slammed the Sulli¬van principles as a “toothless pack¬age” and “piecemeal reforms thatallow this crude system of apartheid tosurvive.” According to the Union: “theSullivan Code circles around aparth¬eid’s basic structures.” The Code doesnot demand that apartheid be abo¬lished but merely modernizes it and en¬sures is perpetuation. The Code doesnot call for an end to passes, an end toforced removals, does not call for aright to vote, to free independent politi¬cal organizations, or even for compa¬nies to recognize black and white tradeunions on an equal basis regardless ofclassification.While the Board of Trustees thinksthat it is “acting as responsible share¬holder” by investing in the companiesthat comply with the Sullivan princi¬ples, black workers of South Africasuggst otherwise. According to US Am¬bassador Bowlder: “Most of theseworkers complain of inadequate train¬ing, job reservation (some jobs areonly reserved for whites), lack of unionstatus, arbitrary promotion, abuse ofAfricans by white foreman, and of jobinsecurity. Most liaison committeemembers agreed that their companyacted basically like a South Africancreation despite the best intentions ofAmerican managements.” The SenateForeign Relations Subcommittee re¬flected this position when it reported:“The net effect of American invest¬ment has been to strengthen the eco¬nomic military self-sufficiency ofSouth Africa’s apartheid regime.”If Hanna Gray truly believes in thecommon “goal of seeing apartheid eli¬minated”, that only can be achievedthrough intensified international pres¬sure on the racist regime of South Afri¬ca. Divestment is not “a purely sym¬bolic step”, it is a concrete andnecessary assault against the econom¬ic structure of apartheid. The Sullivanprinciples are an excuse for the Uni¬versity’s continued economic supportfor the racist apartheid regime.Mohamad Tavakoifor the Ad Hoc Committeefor A Free South Africa absolutely irrelevenat to thestruggle for freedom and justicein Africa.Schmidt also noted that the KeyPoints Act of the South African govern¬ment permits the suspension ofschemes such as the Sullivan Princi¬ples at the behest of Pretoria.Clearly the Sullivan Principles are astatic and ineffective doctrine. In pro¬moting this doctrine, advocates of con¬structive engagement simply preservethe deplorable status quo.It is also, I believe, incorrect to con¬sider constructive engagement as acontemporary alternative to divest¬ment. The policy of constructive en¬gagement was developed during the1950’s as American investments inSouth Africa were mushrooming. Afterthree decades of the policy, however,the condition of the blacks in SouthAfrica has not been significantly ame¬liorated. In economic terms, blackshave benefitted hardly at all from theircountry’s economic boom. Robert Fat-ton writes:While it is true that Americancorporate involvement in SouthAfrica has resulted in some tangi¬ble but limited gains for a smallsector of the black urban workingclass, there is no compelling eco¬nomic argument for assumingthat an expansion of that involve¬ment will produce meaningfulchanges in the exploitive patternsof racial stratification. In fact,the structures of inequality haveshown through the years a resil¬ient persistence despite consider¬able economic growth and urban¬ization. In 1917 the African shareof the total income was 18 per¬cent; it rose by only two percentto 20 percent in 1970. The per capi¬ta ratio of white to African in¬come increased from 13.2:1 to15.2:1 during the same period. Fi¬nally, South Africa has probablythe world’s most inegalitarianpattern of income disintegration:in 1976 the top 20 percent of in¬come earners received 71 percentof total income, and with a Ginicoefficient of .65. South Africa isthe society coming closest to“complete inequality.”How long must we wait for change irSouth Africa?

Under their guidance and di¬rection, we managed to continue withour season as Coach Haydon wouldhave liked us to. •As is often the case at such institu¬tions of intense higher learning, athlet¬ic and achievements tend to be over¬shadowed or forgotten.

Rebecca has managed to handlecompetently the burdens and responsi¬bilities of being head coach, in additionto providing a stable and soothing in¬fluence, while Mike has proven to be agreat friend in our time of need.While taking a retrospective look atthis up-and-down track season, it is ob¬vious that had it not been for the careand sincerity which Rebecca and Mikedisplayed, this past season would havebeen far more painful. For this I saythank you, Rebecca and Mike.Paul Song,Varsity track memberSullivan principles: tip of5 news/letters■The Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 31, 1985Morgan Price to be youngest College student everBy Richard A. SengerJoining the ranks of some 770 to 800other freshmen expected to enter nextyear s Class of 1989, Morgan Pricemight, on the surface, appear to be justanother typical freshman who willupon arrival be stampeded and herdedthrough various guidance meetings,torpid library tours, and early morningplacement exams to cap off a wonder¬ful first week at the College (this year,the last week of September, 1985).Indeed, almost archetypal Universi¬ty of Chicago material, Price is thatmythical superbly well-rounded aca¬demic student, having received all theright scores on all the right tests (toppercentiles in math and scienceachievements, obvious exhibition of anupward college-level competence in lit¬erature and history). Not only does heexude academic excellence and unlim¬ited potential, he participates in extra¬curricular activities, including chess,at which he is phenomenal, and he isfluent in at least three languages. So,you say, what is so unusual about ad¬mitting another hardworking scholarelite, considering the already thrivingpopulation of brilliant, modest, over-studious grade-grubbing Reg-rats whoso infest our soylent campus? Consider this. Said freshman is only elevenyears old.Philosophical implications aside, ad¬mitting a fulltime student with a six orseventh-grade-age-equivalent is, atleast for the University of Chicago, un¬precedented. Even so, admissionsdirector Ted O’neill downplays the sig¬nificance of enrolling Price. “I’ve beenvery surprised by some comments ofpeople, saying we’ve done him (Price)a disservice. While it is true that as faras I know, Morgan is the youngest toattend this university full time, othercolleges have admitted students who•are younger than the average age, andthere is no reason why he shouldn’t becoming here. He has a solid academicbackground, and shows a clear needfor intellectual challenge, which hisgrade school just can’t give him. Theonly thing for Price is a great universi¬ty, and we will supply that. It’s the bestthing for him.”Questioned on how Price will adjustto the social situations and problems heencounters in dealing with peers whowill be at least seven or eight years hissenior, O’neill suggested that while itwould be up to Price to find his niche,the U of C’s reputation for “all workand no play” would not necessarily beprohibitive. “This university can be alienating before you find your place,but I’m certain Morgan will find his, ifhe wants to. He’s a great kid — bright,creative, and sensitive. The Collegeshould be a great place for him. Youdon’t have to fit in here.”Dan Hall, Director of Admissions,agrees. “I don’t think he’ll have anymore trouble than other freshmanadapting to college life. He has thedrive and intelligence to do almost any¬thing, and there is no reason for himnot to be here.”A resident of a nearby suburb, Pricewill live at home with his family nextyear, commuting back and forth eachday. He may have a family companionat U of C in a few years; Morgan’s 9year old brother, Alkes, shows an apti¬tude quite comparable to his own, andis considered by John s Hopkins math¬ematics professor Julian Stanley to be“one of the top 3 children in mathema¬tics I’ve ever met, and I’ve looked atliterally thousands of them.” Thismight be fortuitous for the two, as theyapparently have difficulty relating topeers of their own age.Recently quoted in the Sun Times,Morgan and Alkes said that while theyweren’t “particularly gregarioustypes”, they “can always speak witheach other.” The Price parents believe tnai aiuiougn meir cnnuren are vei,yadvanced intellectually, they remainat their true emotional age level. SaidMrs. Price, “Morgan can roll on thefloor and play like any other child.Both of them act childish at times be¬cause they are children.”Whether nine and eleven year-oldscan have much in common with peoplewho are 19 and older remains to beseen. What is certain is that right now,Morgan definitely has the academiccredentials to justify his admissions onthose grounds alone. Morgan, whoseintelligence makes him a veritableprodigy, will undoubtedly be suc¬cessful in whatever undertaking hechooses, as will Alkes. Still, the conflictof whether such a person belongs in anall pervasive collegiate atmospherewhere many of his peers will be close totwice his age is a serious one to con¬sider. All of the notoriety and media at¬tention he will receive even before be¬coming a full time student (he hasalready been on television and in sev¬eral major newspapers) could make“finding his niche” and arduous task.Perhaps one of the most difficult un¬dertakings he will ever attempt.Ed. note: despite repeated attempts,an interview with Morgan Price wasunable to be scheduled.Kolassa: a colossal type of guyBy Samir GuptaJohn Kolassa’s hard work in the pastthree years has finally paid off. Kolas¬sa. a first-year statistics graduate stu¬dent who graduated from the Collegelast December, recently received boththe prestigious Churchill scholarshipand a three-year National ScienceFoundation (NSF) grant to fund hisgraduate studies.In ten quarters of study at the Col¬lege, Kolassa majored in mathematicsand fulfilled the requirements for a sta¬tistics degree. In addition, Kolassamissed fulfilling the economics degreerequirements by one class. Whenasked about his college grade pointaverage upon graduation, Kolassa re¬plied modestly, “It's somewhere abouta 3.85; I'm not sure.”The Churchill scholarship is award¬ed to only to a select few in the nation.The program is paid for by moneyfrom a joint fund between England andthe United States awarded from theWinston Churchill Foundation in theUnited States.

Accord¬ing to the editor, Jeffrey Trapp, themagazine’s problems are primarily fi¬nancial. Although it receives a grantfrom the Institute for Educational Af¬fairs, the magazine has only “enoughmoney in the treasury for one moreissue” which may or may not appear atthe end of the quarter. The magazineintends to resume full publication nextyear.Counterpoint was founded in 1979 byJohn Podhoretz and Tod Lindberg. Inan informational letter sent to incom¬ing students, the magazine is self-de¬scribed as an “alternative to the Left’sdomination of political discourse oncampus.” The publication says it holdsno “dogmatic ideology” but generallyis identified with such movements asconservatism, traditional liberalism,and neo-conservatism.

SengerDennis Brutus, an English professorat Northwestern University and anoutspoken South African poet withnumerous publications to his name willpresent a speech on “Current Events inSouth Africa” at 7:30 pm Tuesday,June 4 in the Home Room of The Inter¬national House at 1414 E. 59th Street.Born in Salisbury South Rhodesia,Brutus received the Award forAcademic Excellence from the IllinoisCouncil for Black Studies in 1982 andentered into the Black Hall of Fame thesame year. He is a leader of the anti¬apartheid movement at NU, and hasbeen a vocal opponent of Nor¬thwestern’s policies toward SouthAfrica at recent campus rallies there.“Forming a committee is a way otgiving protestors the run-around” saysBrutus, charging that committees atNU are largely theatrics and have notbeen effective. Describing himself as apolitical refugee, Brutus has been avisiting professor at many univer¬sities, including the University ofDenver, Amherst, the University ofTexas, and Dartmouth. Kolassa’s reputation as a brilliantstudent has not made him conde¬scending at all, according to residentsof Hitchcock Hall, the dormitory whereKolassa lives.

Benner suggests what wewrote is either “irrelevant to what hesaid or a complete lie” (Maroon,5/24/85).We hope we do not tax the reader'sinterest, yet a reply is called for whensuch charges are made. Let us exam¬ine what Benner wrote and then com¬pare this to our original letter. We willlet the reader judge who is prevaricat¬ing about what.First, Benner writes: “deploymentof the nuclear TOMAHAWK (sea-launched cruise missile) land attackcruise missile began in 1984, not in the1972-82 period” (Maroon, 5/24/85).We agree with this, though this is notwhat we originally wrote. We wrote.“The U.S. developed, .sea-launchedcruise missiles in addition to the Tri¬dent submarine (in the period1972-82)” (italics added)(Maroon,5/14/85).Second, Brenner writes: ’’implemen¬tation of the intermediate-range nu¬clear force (INF) program, includingground-launched cruise missiles andthe Pershing II began in 1983, not in1981 as Josh writes14 (Maroon,5/24/85).We are perplexed. Did Benner andCo. read our letter? We wrote, “In 1981,moreover, the air-launched cruise(missile) became operational. TherPershing II missile, which can reachSoviet territory from its bases in WestGermany, also was developed”(Maroon, 5/14/85).Third, Benner writes: “Josh, whenwe say development, we mean devel¬opment to the point of deployment”(5/14/85).We apologize. The reader, however,can sympathize with out confusion. Incommon usage, and in the technicallanguage of strategic analysts, theword development is distinguishedfrom the word deployment. When Ben¬ner and Co. wrote, “the US developedonly one new strategic sys¬tem.. (Maroon, 5/7/85), we merely tookthem at their word.Yet even Benner and Co.’s redefini¬tion of the meaning of the word devel¬opment does not make them right. TheUS did not deploy only one new strate¬gic system during 1972-82 as Bennerand Co. claim. The US deployed Min-uteman III missiles, Poseidon C-3 mis¬ time helping other people with theirwork than being able to spend time onhis own,” said Hitchcock residentChris Atou.

As we noted previously, the USincreased the number of strategic war¬heads “from 5,700 in 1972 to more than10,000 in 1982” (Maroon, 5/14/85).These numbers and weapons are notpulled from a hat. We, for example,refer the reader to the authoritativeMilitary Balance, an annual reportpublished by the International Institutefor Strategic Studies. (Call number,UA.L84, in RR2).A discrepancy between our evidenceand that presented in the Military Bal¬ance 1984-85 exists. On page 131, theMilitary Balance notes the air-launched cruise missile was first de¬ployed in 1982. (This, however, is.stillwithin the decade under question).Yet, an article by Mark Kaplan enti¬tled “U.S. Cruise Missile Programs”(Arms Control Today, May 1983, p. 2)lists September 1981 as the initialoperationa date for the air-launchedcruise missile. We leave other resolu¬tion of this minor ambiguity to thecurious reader.Josh HandlerDaniel SakuraSummer BreezekudosTo the editor:“Summer Breeze” was a success.The members of the College StudentsAssembly would like to thank that won¬derful army of volunteers whose ideasand help made this spring festival pos¬sible.

Scheduled for Sunday, 28July, 1985, except for a few “EarlyBirds,” the festivities are to celebrateWilliam Rainey Harper’s 129th birth¬day, which falls on 24 July. Harperserved as the University’s first presi¬dent from 1891 until his death in 1906.Across the country and abroadtwenty-eight alumni groups plan tohost the activities to commemoratethis day. Planned functions range froma barbecue in Tokyo to a castle tour inDenver. Chicago’s celebration will in¬clude a barbecue beside Botany Pondand a special performance of The Mi¬kado in Mandell Hall The festivities are not only to cele¬brate Harper’s birthday but also, ac¬cording to Bette Arnett, National Pro¬gram Director and coordinator for theevent, “to foster student ties withalumni groups active in variousplaces.”The multi-tiered publicity campaignis in the works. Brochures, soon to beprinted, are slated to appear in studentmailfolders during the first week ofJune. Incoming students, facultymembers, graduate students, and un¬dergraduate parents will also receive acopy of the brouchure. The alumnimagazine will carry an advertisement.Finally, the Student Relations Commit¬tee is trying to create a network of stu¬dent liasons. These liasons, furnishedwith lists of local students, will call toencourage student attendance.“We hope to make a tradition of tneDay,” concluded Arnett. “It should bea lot of fun.”Venture cut Mab surveycontinued from page 1The new UC undergraduate intern¬ship program will use the existing re¬sources of CAPS, as well as the“hundreds” of internship programsaround the country,” said MacDonald.Like the Venture Program, the listingswill consist of “blind” job descrip¬tions; students then consult CAPS,which will provide them with contacts,tell them of other available options,and give interview and resume work¬shops.While CAPS will help students alongin their job searches, MacDonald em¬phasizes that “the philosophy is toteach you how to get a job, not just tohand you one, because this is a skillyou’ll need for the rest of your life.”She encourages people to start thinkingabout careers before their fourth year,and to use internships to gain experi¬ence. The CAPS office is eager to helpall students, so stop in and use their re¬sources ! continued from page 1So while MAB will be goingafter slight¬ly bigger names, it is limited in thesetwo fundamental respects.Also, diversification of its programseems limited by the growth of studentgroups such as Praxis or the Kangarooclub which provide entertainment inother areas. While demand for theseevents may seem to be there, often theconcerts are not successful such as theblues concert with Lonnie Brooks andKoko Taylor.Surprisingly, a small but significantnumber of comments complainedabout ticket prices even though MABprices are usually not only less thanpublic forums, but also less than otheruniversities, and occasionally theevents are free such as the recent Yei-loman/Afrika Bambatta concert. Ulti¬mately the results suggest that moreeffort should be made to attract gradstudents and that more popular main¬stream artists should be booked. The Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 31, 1985'University must divest to be pureDear President Gray:In your letter to the Maroon, youmake a case for the University main-taning its holdings in companies thatdo buiness in South Africa on the basisthat, as an investor, it exercises someinfluence over the behavior of thesecompanies. As you point out, if the Uni¬versity were to divest itself of suchholdings, they might fall into handsless concerned with human rightsissues. However, in making the argu¬ment, you claim that, by divesting,“the University would take a purelysymbolic step and lose any power forconstructive action.”There is no reason to believe that amajor symbolic action on the part ofthe University would be ineffecual. In¬deed, such an action would send a clearmessage to the effect that, althoughothers might be willing, the Universityof Chicago would not be a party in anyway to the economic support of a re¬gime that supports (and, indeed, issupported by) apartheid. Clearly, oursingle action could not damage the eco¬nomic position of the current regime;but that would not be its goal. Rather, we would be stating that, as a majorcenter of intellectual life, we could nolonger condone anything short ofmajor reforms in the South Africansystem. Such a symbolic action wouldhave its impact on our own govern¬ment through the agency of the pres¬tige of the University. We would bespeaking of those who have no voice.In response to complaints that thegoal of the divestment effort is theoverthrow of the South African govern¬ment; divestment need not lead to dis¬placement. Unless we are willing togive history an entirely materialisticreading, it must be admitted that ex¬pressions of moral outrage may havean effect. Divestment brings moralsanction to bear on the government ofSouth Africa in an effort to promotechanges in the policy of that govern¬ment. If, nevertheless, South Africarefuses to abolish apartheid, apartheidwill abolish South Africa. Divestmenton the part of the University of Chicagowould be a rational, moral and humaneact.Andrew ShapiroGraduate StudentSociologyUrban Larson to resign this fall;elections will be held thenTo the editor:Since I am approaching a decisionwhich may have an effect on the stu¬dent body, I thought it best to warnthem.Soon after my recent election to theoffice of Student Government Presi¬dent, I received an unexpected offerfrom the Peace Corps.

May 31, 1985Jackson to speakJesse Jackson will speak on racismand South African apartheid today atnoon in the center quadrangle ofcampus.Jackson, the former president ofPUSH, offered to come to the U of C tosupport the actions of the Anti-Apartheid Student Alliance and theAd Hoc Committee for a Free SouthAfrica after meeting with Urban Lar¬son and Eric Rosenthal of the lattergroup.Larson said that although Jackson'sappearance was entirely the Rever¬end’s idea, “We (the Ad Hoc Commit¬tee) thought it would be a really greatoccasion to stir people up and getthem involved in the issue of divest¬ment.”This rally comes on the heels of lastweek’s rally in the center quadranglewhere over 500 people listened as theAd Hoc Committee called for divest¬ment. recognition of and action on mi¬nority concerns, and a response fromHanna Gray on the University’s posi¬tion in a public forum. “We’re hopingthat Jackson can open a few doors onthat (their demands)” Larson said. Blackfriars ‘original' performanceBy Alex ConroyBlackfriars was originally foundedto produce original musicals, but itturned to stock shows due to a lack oforiginal proposals. In the 1985 fallquarter, the musical group will returnto the former tradition, producing Tillthe End of the World. Both vocal scoresand script were written by DanielBiemer, a sophomore and currentKeeper of the Jewels for Blackfriars.Biemer was stage manager for the tre¬mendously successful two-weekendIHC reps electedAccording to Michael Aronson, theoutgoing Inter-House Council (IHC)vice-president, the results of Tuesday'sIHC elections are as follows: BeckyHendricks, a first-year student in theCollege, was elected president; third-year College student Ginger Ostro wasnamed vice-president; and first-yearCollege student Heidi Handler wastapped as secretary-treasurer.The three students were elected of¬ficers for next year by current IHC rep¬resentatives.New theater funding systemBy Alex ConroyConcrete Gothic Theatre, Black¬friars, and The Other Theater Groupwill be operating under a new fundingsystem beginning fall quarter of 1985.The system will be independent of theStudent Activities fund. Representa¬tives of the three student groups,agreed to pool their resources into acommon treasury. Proceeds from fallshows and hopefully a gift from theQuality of Life Committee will in¬crease the pool.The managing board for the indepen¬dent money supply will consist of threestudent representatives and the Man¬aging and Technical Directors of Uni¬versity Theater. Initially, student par¬ticipants will be nominated, one each,by Blackfriars. The Other, and Con¬crete Gothic. Later, they will be drawnfrom other sources. Board members will not represent the interests of anyone of the three groups in particular.The budgets proposed will be reviewedand modified if necessary, in colla¬boration with the directors of the spe¬cific shows.Steve Schroer, Managing Director ofthe University Theater, feels that theindependent funding project “...willsucceed to the extent that the coopera¬tive spirit (among the three groups)persists. Over the last year, there’sbeen a lot of progress in working to¬gether.” At the end of the quarter, an¬other meeting will be called to deter¬mine if the theater groups shouldremain under self-financing. ‘Weil re¬view’ it the same way we made it up.It’s informal,” Schroer explained.“This is based on a working arrange¬ment. It hasn’t been handed down fromabove by someone outside.” run of Hair and was producer and Filchin Threepenney Opera. This is his firstmusical and the product of over a yearof work.Biemer first had the idea for thepiece in his senior year of high school.The initial draft was completed duringSpring break of 1984. September of thefollowing academic year saw the arriv¬al of the first draft of music and thework; script and music were complet¬ed during this year’s spring break. Ittook a fair amount of time, but the au¬thor says he thoroughly enjoyed him¬self. “It’s great to sit down at the pianofrom nine to five every day for a weekand just try to compose.”Unlike Hair and Threepenney,Beimer describes his show as morelike a traditional 50’s or late 60’s musi¬cal. “The music is modern, but it fitsthe same categories as the clas¬sics...There are ballads, happy songs,love songs and act finales.”The story, however, is rather unusu¬al. In brief, it was the Last JudgementDay and Death had been informed, fif¬teen minutes prior to the trumpetsounding, that he had to kill everyoneso that they could be resurrected. Inorder to be efficient, he went in alpha¬betical order and missed one, a Jonath¬an Zzoam. Since Zzoam had not died,he couldn’t be resurrected. In order tocompensate for this oversight, Gabrieldecided to postpone Judgement for 24hours and let Zzoam run the world forthat period. Although he had boastedthat this world would be a better place,it doesn’t look as though Zzoam isgoing to change human nature: eitherhis subjects’ or his own.Setting the action among the now-liv¬ing dead gives rise to interaction be¬tween some historical figures. Oedipusis incensed at the name Freud chosefor his ignominious complex, all six ofHenry VIII’s wives are out for revenge,and Joan of Arc is befuddled when shefalls into her first romance. In addi¬tion, the bizarre dancing and singingaround gravestones lends of a touch ofeccentricity. The songs sound cheerful,but everyone is dead. The graveyardatmosphere had its origin in one grave¬ yard scene from Don Juan: the onlypart that The End's author enjoyed.The show was originally scheduled torun this spring, but was bumped backby Hair because the latter’’...providedus with this nice little foundation tocoast off from,” Biemer said. StuartFeffer, who proposed a musicalthrough The Other Theater Group, gra¬ciously abdicated the fall position toBlackfriars, moving his choice, Ani-mal Crackers, to winter.After doing Hair, Blackfriarslearned a lot about ticket sales andhopes to reduce confusion with TheEnd. Hours for ticket tables will be lessirregular and the practice of unpaidreservations and multiple reservationsby one person may be altered. Phone-in reservations will be better moni¬tored. One man was told he could easi¬ly get Hair tickets for the finalperformance at the door. After drivingin from northern Indiana, he discov¬ered the show had sold out two days be¬fore. Blackfriars hopes to curtail suchdiscrepancies. In addition to upgradingticket sales, the group will put forth alarge scale publicity plan because theshow has not been around long enoughto earn a reputation. Scenes from theshow will be performed during orienta¬tion week, and information will beavailable at the Blackfriar’s table atStudent Activities Night.The show will run seventh and eighthweek and auditions will be held firstweek. The cast numbers about twenty-five. There will be some dancing, asBiemer put it,”...a nice manageableamount.” Musicians will be needed, aswell as a conductor, preferably onewith experience in arranging music.The technical director will be Cory See-man, who is on the Blackfriars board.Biemer will be co-directing, possiblywith Lisa Morrow, who directed Paja¬ma Game. Amelia Schmertz will pro¬duce.In addition to this production, Black¬friars and Concrete Gothic Theaterwill combine talent to perform anothermusical, as yet unchosen, which willhave a three-night run in MandelHall.Inquiry doing well with new $10,000 endowmenth; . - By Lora PrzybyszBolstered by a recent endowment of$10,000, Inquiry magazine’sWinter/Spring 1985 issue will be avail¬able today at major campus loca¬tions.According to Inquiry organizers,free copies may be picked up atHarper, Regenstein and Crerar li¬braries in addition to Cobb Hall.

The purpose of the In¬quiry is an intention to bring togetherindependent lines of thought from allareas of intellectual life.It also attempts to “demonstratethat the separation of scholarship intodistinct fields does not reflect a corre¬sponding disconnectedness of academ¬ic concerns, and that the separation be¬tween academic and non-academicpursuits in our college years does notreflect a fundamental disjunction be¬tween the activity of inquiry and theactivity of life.”The editors of Inquiry also feel thattheir purpose is to expose those worksof students which would have other¬wise gone unnoticed and to advance aspirit of open-mindedness and interdis¬ciplinary inquiry that have long beencustomary at the University of Chica¬go ■The publication of Inquiry has beenfinanced by four major sources.

Hereplaced David O’Leary, who was pro¬moted to Assistant Vice President ofOperations in the University.Graham’s immediate plans for theUniversity’s security system focus on“delivering efficient and valuable ser¬vice.” He notes that at this point it was“too early to implement any drasticand radical changes.” He is still “get¬ting his feet wet” and trying to becomefamiliar with his new duties. This in¬cludes talking to as many of the of¬ficers and other groups of people in thesecurity system as possible to get abetter “feeling of what the needs of thedepartment were.”An important longer term goal of thenew director is to develop new andmore effective methods of training hisofficers. Mr. Graham feels this is themost important component of universi¬ty security. He plans to administer asurvey to his officers to determinewhat types of training they needed toimprove their job performance.Other longer term goals include con¬centrating upon more effective deploy¬ment of manpower in the different se¬curity zones throughout the universityarea, as well as improving coordina¬tion with the Chicago police depart- signifi-amongGraham also stresses thecance of developing rapportstudent and officers. This includes en¬couraging officers to maintain casualrelationships with students. The result,he states, will be better service inemergency situations.In reference to the recent student“demonstrations”, he commented thatthere were no large changes made inthe regular scheduling of officers, Thiswas due largely to the fact that theevent had been carefully planned by itsorganizers. From a security stand¬point, his biggest concern was the traf¬fic problems that could have potential¬ly arisen.When asked about the possible ef¬fects of the University’s tighter pursestrings, Graham said that since thebiggest expense of the security systemwas its officers, this was, if necessary,the area most likely to be trimmedHowever, he also notes that becausethe emphasis of the security depart¬ment is on the training of its officers,they would be more able to performtheir duties with fewer people thanmight otherwise be the case.Graham holds a BA from the Univer¬sity of Illinois and an MBA from theUniversity of Chicago. Before beingpromoted to his current position, heserved as an Assistant Dtreetm9Moore keysBy Ingrid Gould“You remember the song: “Carryme back to old New Guinea,’ ” hequipped as he launched into a long dis¬cussion of his recent trip to the “mostbeautiful island in the world.” PaulMoore, professor in the department ofGeophysical Sciences and butterfly afi¬cionado, spent two months in NewGuinea collecting specimens for his re¬search. An energetic and witty man, heinterwove the explanation of his re¬search with anecdotes about the nativepopulation, waxing serious when he la¬mented the ecological damage defores¬tation is wreaking.Just over one-hundred years ago, theneed for coconut, quack medicaments,and spices brought Europeans to NewGuinea. “Naturalism and field explo¬ration played a minimal role,” Mooreaffirmed. But it was this very natural¬ist bent that drew Moore.What so excites him about New Guin¬ea is that the island is the home of morebutterfly species than any other placeon earth, and many of those species arepeculiar to it. The genus Delias, for ex¬ample, Moore’s particular favorite, ispractically confined to the Malay ar-chipeligo. New Guinea’s proximity tothe equator, bringing lots of sunlightper unit area, causes creatures to ageslightly more rapidly, speeding up thegenerations. “Events happen fasterwith higher temperatures,” Moore ex¬plained. The island owes its exception¬ally rich species diversity to clinealvariation and altitude; completely dif¬ferent ecological communities thriveat specific altitudes. Mt. Wilhelm, at16,000 feet, presents a decided changein flora and fauna with each 2,000 footincrease. “And things tend to get verystrange at high altitude,” Moore re¬minded.However beautiful the adults butter¬flies may be, they often have humble,Penn Plan:By Steve “Skip” LauFreezing tuition during the four col¬lege years would be like a dream cometrue for most students anywhere, andat the University of Pennsylvania it isa dream come true. The Universityoffers what is called The Penn Plan(see insert) that can do everythingfrom freezing tuition to paying for non¬tuition expenses.The plan almost sounds too good tobe true, but it is real and it offers somereal advantages to Penn. As HilaryThompson, senior counselor for thePenn Plan, describes it, the plan willnot only help parents who cannot get fi¬nancial aid but yet cannot afford thecost of a Penn education, but will alsoattract more students.In fact, Penn’s applications have in¬creased about 7% to a record 12,500during the first year of the plan. How¬ever, this figure is down from the 10%growth the previous year, and matchesthe University of Chicago’s rise in ap¬plications, also at 7%. which may be anindication that other forces than The.Penn Plan were at work in increasingapplications.However, the plan may not be for allinstitutions, as its $11 million dollar in¬vestment at Penn may be prohibitivelyvely high for other institutions. At Du-queene University, a similar packageis offered only to alumni children.Even at other Ivy League institutions,the cost is prohibitive. One of the firstto look into the plan, Brown University,was prevented from pursuing it be¬cause “we cannot afford somethinglike that...it’s costly procedure to dothat sort of thing,” according to theirDirector of Financial Aid.While other colleges balk at the costof such a program, the University ofChicago’s Director of Admissions, DanHall, cited a decrease in accessabilityas the main obstacle of such a financ¬ing program. According to Hall, theUniversity can offer them more in The Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 31, 1985,saving planetbutterflies inPaul Moore“ugly duckling” beginnings. The lar¬vae hatch from the eggs and often pro¬ceed to eat twice their weight in food aday. “All children should be called lar¬vae,” Moore smiled. “They are weak,dependent, and in the process ofgrowth.” The pupal stage, where thelarvae wrap themselves in a cocoon,follows. From these cocoons emergethe mature adults, the imagos.Butterflies tend to be monophagous,meaning that they tend to feed on onlyone plant. One family of mistletoe pro¬vides food for the over 160 species ofDelias, with a one to one corresponden¬ce between butterfly species and plantspecies. A second tendency is for but¬terflies to feed on very poisonousplants. They concentrate the poisons infats, making themselves harmful totheir predators. A person who eats abutterfly, at the very least, will get astomach ache, at the very most, willhallucinate. Butterflies load up on thealkaloids contained in their specificmost plant; alkaloids include caffeine,nicotine, morphine, cocaine, and co¬deine. Moore speculated that “butter¬flies fluttering on flowers are gettinghigh.” These alkaloids are an importantcomponent of the chemical base in but¬terfly scales. As apparent oe’ow themicroscope, tiny scales or shingleswith hook-like attachments cover but¬terfly wings much as feathers coverbird wings. The alkaloid couples with ametal, such as copper, zinc, or titan¬ium, to procure pigment. Structuralcolor, produced by diffraction of lightby the little ridges between the scales,is the second source of butterfly color¬ing; but Moore’s research focuses onchemical color.Moore gently scrapes the scalesfrom butterfly wings and producesX-ray diffraction patterns of pigment.The lines of patterns that match up in¬dicate that the chemical bases, the al¬kaloids, are related. Butterflies whoseX-ray diffraction patterns line up “flytogether,” suggests Moore. “Theyhave a similar ecology, feed on relatedplants.”Moore’s enthusiasm for his work andhis love for New Guinea are plagued bythe exploitation of nature due to“human stupidity and lack of fore¬sight,” he rumbled. “The country istrying to make a lot of money. It’s acase of a nation becoming a nation fiftyyears too soon; and they are going tohave a very hard time of it.” Theforests are being stripped at the rate of100,000 hectares per week, supplyingan enormous amount of woodchips toJapan.The land has been replanted with eu¬calyptus trees, which are not indige¬nous, creating an ecological miasma.Monophagous species, many butter¬flies included, are in danger of theirsole food source (often times still unk¬nown to science) being eliminated. Theearth’s richest store of species is now-confounded; not only are the nativespecies in danger due to the destruc¬tion of their native habitat, but with the imported habitats come “all the wrongbeetles, butterflies, and birds. Theyjust don’t belong,” Moore observed.And what further angers Moore is thatthe industrialists and incompetent gov¬ernment officials blame the dozen but¬terfly collectors for depleting the but¬terfly population. “Butterflies are thebest barometers of ecology,” he assert¬ed. The world needs a census of butter¬fly populations. We should fire tax col¬lectors and hire census takers ofbutterflies. We would do our planet agreat ser,ice.”Tiarks named courtTheater directorMark Tiarks will become the Manag¬ing Director of Court Theatre at TheUniversity of Chicago on June 1.Tiarks will replace Bill Conner, whohas been Court’s Managing Directorsince December, 1981.

What hesees as the most important determin¬ants are issues like “what is the sociallife like?”But for Penn, the success of the pro¬gram does not hinge upon the attract¬ing more students, but rather “successwill be seen five years down the road,when most students leave school andpay back their loans,” asserts Thomp¬son.The University of Pennsylvania isthe unique designer of the Penn Plan, aplan designed to ease the cost of at¬testing college and particularly direct¬ed at those who do not receive financialaid but yet cannot afford the cost of at¬tending Penn. For these students,there are four tuition packages avail¬able, with an aided version of the lasttwo.Tuition FreezeThe first two plans freeze tuitioncosts for all four years. The first doesso by allowing a lump sum to be paidup front, currently about $41,600, orfour times the current tuition. The sec¬ond plan requires the student to borrowthe whole $41,000. minus the down pay¬ment, at a fixed annual percentagerate. The loan is then amortized for upto ten years with payments beginningwithin the month. The down paymentcan vary from $2600 to $31,600, whilethe annual percentage rate is fixed at3.5% over the six-month Treasury Billrate, currently at 11%.Annual Tuition PlansThe other two plans are annual tu¬ition plans that do not freeze tuition,but rather allow the student more flexi¬bility with his payments.The monthly payment plan merelyi student to borrow the cost ofyear, minus a one-thousandto tie fin-Dercentaee rate ter through a revolving line of credit ata variable rate of interest, which iscomputed annually as before. Theloans are then amortized over the nexteight to twelve years.These last two loans are the onlyones available to aided students, be¬cause the amount of parental contribu¬tion expected varies from year to year.The aided version of the plans offers fi¬nancing of parental contributions, upto $5280.All of the loans allow for a pre¬payment of a loan In full or in part, butinstead of lowering monthly payments,Penn merely shortens the term of theloan Also, oiH' or none of the plansmust be subscribed to upon enteringthe college.

I don’t think just pop music,all types of music...I feel music is very im¬portant to the world, and that it’s helpedchange things, like in the sixties, if itwasn’t for music, a lot of people wouldn’thave had messages or have known whatwas happening from Vietnam to Blacksand Whites, civil rights. So music played abig role—Beatles, Rolling Stones to JamesBrown, Aretha Franklin, a lot of otherfolks singing —Joan Baez—so musicplayed a big role in a lot of importantchanges.GCJ: Did you feel that way when you firstbegan in music, or did you come to feelthat way as you became more involved?AB: I was looking for all aspects of music. Iwanted to make messages, I wanted to dothings that would make people dance,have a good time. I wanted some stuff tomake people go into a fantasy world,’cause some people don’t want to hearyour messages, ‘cause they know what'shappening around here, so we try to com¬bine it all together 'cause we want every¬one to have a good time.GCJ: How did you get involved in music?AB: I was raised up on music, the Motownsound, and the Memphis/Stax sound, anda lot of pop sounds. My mother was intoBarbara Streisand, Edith Piaf, the RollingStones, and I was into a lot of othersounds—funk, the Temptations, Sly andthe Family Stone, Three Dog Night, so Iwas raised around a lot of music.GCJ: What was it like to get to work withJames Brown?AB: James Brown? He's very professional,very businesslike. Once you get him in thestudio, an he start doin’ his thing...he getloose, he start dancin, and he havin’ agood time. But, he’s very businesslike. Hedon’t play no games. He tells you that “ifyou don’t finish this record in two days,you don’t got me,’’ ‘cause he could take hisband in there and lay it down once.There’s no punchin’ in; his band’ll go inthere and lay it down once on the money.GCJ: How about Johnny Rotten?AB: He’s real fun. He came in to do “WorldDestruction” and the first thing he saidwas, “Wow, this is some super heavymetal shit.” And then, there’s a versionthat nobody heard where he’s cursin’, andblowin’ off and stuff...but we had a reallygood time. He’ll do something good againsoon.GCJ: Are you going to do something onSouth Africa?AB: Yeah, we’re supposed to have a re¬cord on South Africa with the Last Poets,but that’s probably gonna be on our sec¬ond album.GCJ: Are you going to tour?AB: France, Germany, England, Scotland.Switzerland, Belgium...GCJ: Do you have any desire to work withAfrican musicians, King Sunny Ade...?AB: I’d like to work with Fela Kunti. I’mheavy into Fela Kunti. Sunny Ade I like,but I feel Fela Kunti is more the JamesBrown type, more to say. I’d like to playwith a lot of the Jai Alai stars AFRIKA RAPSGCJ: Do you find people in Europe to be re¬ceptive to your music?AB: Oh yeah, especially France. I loveFrance; it’s almost like being at home.GCJ: Chicago is a city with bad race rela¬tions, and I know your music addressesthat—I was wondering how you feel aboutplaying in Chicago.AB: I like Chicago, it seems like there’s abridge splitting the Northside and theSouthside—all the whites are on the Northand it seems like all the Blacks are on theSouth. But, I see when we play the clubsthat we get a lot of mixed audi¬ences...that’s what I like, that’s the typeof crowd I love playing for is a mixedcrowd... everyone’s checking out eachother’s dances, and nationalities, andbackgrounds. When I dj, I try to play alltypes of music...I try to get the punkrockers to like the rockers to like the hiphoppers...the hip hoppers try to dance likethe punk rockers or to dance like the reg¬gae...GCJ: Are you still dj-ing in New York?AB: Anytime I get free time I go back todj’ing.GCJ: When you’re in New York, do younormally work with Soul Force or withDST...?AB: I work with everybody. Soul SonicForce, Shango, that’s my main group. But Ialso go into a rock-steady crew, DST, ...B-Side, Double Dutch Girls. MalcolmMcLaren...GCJ: Working with Malcolm McLaren must “Take that shit off the turntable”; but I’dkeep it on and make them get up there anddance.GCJ: Do you like touring, generally, orwould you rather be in New York, justdj’ing and hanging out?AB: I like touring, to a certain extent, but Ilove dj-ing. I like touring around dj-ingtoo, but I like giving concerts in front ofthousands of people, hearing them screamand get off, and release themselves...!like all this...especially dj-ing.GCJ: We hear you know Madonna...AB: Madonna—yeah, we know Madonnavery well, she used to dance at all my par¬ties...She’s really wild...the same way yousee her in Desperately Seeking Susan,that’s how she really acts. Fun—you canhave a good time with Madonna...I’m veryglad for her, because she came out of theclub scene too...Roxy, Mudd Club, and dif¬ferent places to hang out. And now look ather—so, I’m real happy for her.GCJ: What do you think of Run DMC?AB: Run DMC oh, I like Run DMC—they’rethe new guys on the block and stuff...Whenthey first made “It’s Like That”, the pro¬ducer Russell Simmons came to me saying“Bambaataa, we jumped on your music,we hope you like it” because “It’s LikeThat”, is something like “Planet Rock”,but slowed down.GCJ: It’s seems tike they’re working on asimilar idea to you, in the sense of tryingto cross over to the other music...trying tobring the music to a larger group of peo¬ple.be a trip.AB: Malcolm McLaren is a very slick guy.They call him a culture vulture; he's a per¬son who knows how to change with thetimes. He takes different things fromother people and puts them together andgoes out there and tears the place apart.GCJ: Have you heard much Go Go?AB: Oh, I been into Go Go since I been intoHip Hop. Ive been behind Go Go since Day1. Yeah, if you ever see Trouble Funk andask them who the main dj is in new Yorkthey’ll tell you me. Yeah, i been into Go Gofor years. Go Go is just another form of HipHop, ‘cept they’re more into the bandthing than the dj. In New York, peoplewant to hear the dj more, hurry up and getthe band off, while down there they wantto hear the band for three hours and laterfor the dj.GCJ: When did you first realize that HipHop might be something more than, like,people you knew in the Bronx...?AB: I realized when 1 started to get invitedto play in rock clubs They heard a tape ofme down in the rock clubs and said, ‘ Whois this Black guy playing heavy metal, andother largely rock sounds to a predomin¬antly Black and Hispanic community?” Iwas playing stuff like Foghat, “SlowRide,” “Walk This Way” by Aerosmithand stuff like that and they were buggingout ...and they were saying, “How the hellis he playing that stuff to that the Blackkids up there...and then I started to playdowntown and the New Wave audiencestarted to get into what I was playing-cause I would mix oldies, rock and soulfrom the Motown era and Pop days, up towhat was happening now with Siouxsieand the Banshees, and the stuff from Eng¬land and Blondie, and mix it all together—and everybody was having a good timeand learning how to get into each other’smusic. My audiences were progressiveminded anyway, ‘cause if they’re not theywould hate me ‘cause I play stuff thatAuuld bug them out and the> would say, AB: Well, sometimes it works, sometimes itdon’t..Like people tell me, "Bamabataa.you should stay all hip hop, you shouldstay all electro, but I tell people I’ll dowhat I want to do—I’m a renegade offunk. I think it’s a shame radio stationsare separate—you’ve got to make the topten Black before you can cross over to pop;some stations say that’s too black, that’stoo white, but that’s why it takes a lot ofthe artists, like David Bowie, Mick Jag-ger. and then a lot of the funk and soul ar¬tists that play rock and mix it up—to showthese people that everybody can do funkand soul together and everybody’s cross¬ing ideas over. What’s bad is when l makea record, “World Destruction,” and no¬body Black ever heard of it, whereas theother record, “Wildstyle” by Timezone, allthe Blacks heard of. So it’s crazy.GCJ: Plus with the black stations there’ssometimes a lot of resistance to playinganything so hard...AB: It's like ‘Unity’’.. More of the collegestations play ‘Unity” than the Black sta¬tions. They say, "oh. that’s not the soundwe want,” they just want to hear Shala-mar or this type of sound, Evylyn “Cham¬pagne” King, so the college stations sup¬port us.GCJ: Do you have any plans for future col¬laborations or projects?tAB: Most definitely..I’m trying to wait tosee who I’m going to get before I do some¬thing next...But we did two songs on thenew Sly Robbie LP, coming out. I don’tknow if we should put this thing out withNina Haagen, called “Ecstacy”—that’s awild record. We might—I don’t know howtrue it is, it’s just talk right now—we mightdo “Give Peace A Chance” over with YokoOno. /GCJ: It seems like you’ve taken a positionof helping other people—I’m wonderinghow you started to think of that as therole you might take instead of just goingout for yourself. AB: Basically, I look at it from touringaround and from seeing other peo¬ple...like in England, they don’t have noth¬ing for the youth there. You got to wait tillyou’re about 19 or 20 before you can getin certain clubs and it might show you onthe charts that the Rolling Stones arenumber one, Yellowman number two, andmy band number three, it’s not really likethat. They got clubs that are rock, clubsthat are soul, clubs that are heavy metaland they don?! have a big stadium. . .allthey’ve got is Wembley, like where theRolling Stones go when they tour. Theygot to wait till it’s hot to play, and I feelthey ought to build a big stadium wherethey could go to see their soccer games,rock concerts and whatever theywant...the whole family could go and havea good time, and the same thing over here,you see a lot of people fighting...or rac¬ism, the Ku Klux Klan, or Black militancystuff, but it’s not all about that, more isabout the working class, you know, peoplewant jobs...and that’s what’s messing uppeopled minds, they see that they can’thave no jobs. We should be talking abouthow we’re ail gonna get some jobs, howwe’re gonna help the people who arestarving in other worlds...there’s all thesepeople here spending a fortune to sniff co¬caine up their noses, and you got all theseother countries where people are drop¬ping dead like flies. So, I was heavy into“Do They Know It's Christmas” and all theU.S.A. for Africa stuff.GCJ: You don’t feel that there's some en¬ergy lost from the club scene when youstart moving into big stadiums?AB: In some ways, but if the record hits itbig on the radio and if people are heavyinto the record then it works, but if youdon’t have a hit record so that peopleknow the record then you're going to havea hard time. . .I'd definitely like to have anumber one record and a number two re¬cord and a number three record, all thosepeople hearing it. “Planet Rock” wouldhave been a number one if they werecounting 12 inches. But. we’re gonna keepmoving till we get a number one. Don't letnothing stop you; you can make it if youtry.GCJ: Do you have a new album coming outsoon?AB: Yeah. Soul Sonic's got an album com¬ing out soon, and I got an album comingout called “Beware. The Funk is Every¬where.” It's goin’ be a real mix—we didan MC5 record over called “Kick Out theJams,” ... a lot of funk and rock.GCJ: Do you play a lot of colleges?AB: Yeah, I play a lot of colleges...! lovecolleges. The last place we played was inRhode Island, Brown I think. That waswild. This was even wilder, when the ramcame down.GCJ: Do you still hang out in the old neigh¬borhoods when you're back home?AB: Most definitely. When I go to otherplaces, I go to the places people say“Don't go there, it's crazy." I go there andjust check it out. You just got to take yourchances, cause there's badness every¬where. People from other countries cometo New York, and they try to show themjust the ghetto part, or they want to showthe South Bronx, but they never show theparts where you see Black and Whites liv¬ing together, rapping, they got graftittion the walls. People hear records like“New York, New York," or they see mov¬ies like “Escape from New York,” “TheWarriors,” “The Wanderers,” and theythink that gangs run the city,’ like you gotto go see a guy named the Duke. . .theyget mixed up and they don’t know what'shappening...I try to show them that it'snot like that...A lot of people, a lot of NewWave people too, used to say, “Oh, don’tgo into the Bronx, it’s all Blacks and hi-spanics.” When I used to give parties. Iused to give a tribute to James Brown andSly and the Family Stone every year, a bigarmy of punk rockers came down, and itblew people s minds—the press came,they thought something was going to hap¬pen..but they were partying, swinging,everybody had a good time ..And every-time I start doing it, I get a more mixedcroAd than the Bronx ever had...TUESDAY IS MEN’S DAY OUR FAMOUS STUFFED PIZZA IN THE PANIS NOW AVAILABLE IN HYDE PARKALL MEN’S CUTS ARE s10°°CAll FOB AN APPOINTMENT TODAY!The. hair performers 11621 E. 55th St.Chicago, IL 60615241-7778Now you can tan without the sun...at your nearby Wolff SystemTanning Center.•Tan without painful sunburns.•Tan in spite of the weather.•Keep your tan all year long.For a great tan year-round, insist on a Wolff Systemand get a fast, dark, natural tan. cocktails • Pleasant Dining • Pick-up"Chicago’s best pizza!” - Chicago Magazine, March 1977"The ultimate in pizza!” - New York Times, January 19805311S.

Sun 12-4Survey This exhibition of (mostly)sculptural ceramics is characteristicof the Art Center: diverse, uneven,but on the whole a good thing.Works of a few artists which fail totranscend the level of simple goodcraftmanship are the lowpoint of theshow: Natsuko Takehita ana KeithStriegl in particular are guilty ofthis. Ruth Duckworth, of whom Ihave come to expect a lot, disap¬points with a consideration of or¬ganic forms that lacks her usual vi¬tality. Burton Isenstein entertainsand delights with his bizarre psy¬chedelic fish and coral lamps anc fig¬ures — they’re really dizzying, a lit¬tle like being at the Tiki too long. (Ilike that.) Tom Rippon makes littlestatuettes of surreal castles, allvery square, of porcelain; I didn'tlike them much because they had noapparent relationship to the media:they could just as well have beenblocks of wood, and they justweren’t very interesting. Far more Ipreferred two compositions byKatherine L. Ross, which each includ¬ed life sized chairs made of clay —they acknowledge the media, andthe mood created by the odd juxta¬position of the media and the subjectmatter is melancholy and graceful.My favorite works in the show, how¬ever, were the figures by BonnieKatz. Made of wood, clay and hay,the figures were life sizes and gen¬erally human shaped with strangebird or dog heads; no particular de¬tailing was used, but the texturesare rich and the sculpting precise.They are ominous and beautiful;only partly discernable like figuresseen at a distance in half-light.

Of course, this is nonsense. Psychede¬lia in 67, Elvis in 57, the rise of R&B in 47,as well as the countless variations whichconstitute pop culture all managed to getthe world shook up.What interests me here is not the historyof Punk, but rather the context into whichwe must put Punk in order to realize howPunk was limited by and grounded in afield of styles which, for all intents andpurposes, still exists today. What inter¬ests me here is the way in which Punk didnot spring into existence full blown, butrather was nurtured by rock variationswhich led out of and from the false ideal¬ism of the Sixties. Above all, what inter¬ests me here is Roxy Music, one of thegreatest bands of all time.This week I saw the video of the newBryan Ferry single, “Slave to Love,” andit brought back some memories. It was justabout this time, ten years ago, that RoxyMusic — the band that brought Ferry tostardom — finally broke into the Americanairwaves with their single “Love is theDrug,” that ode/requiem for the age ofdisillusionment that was the first half ofthe Seventies. At the time, their successwas all too ironic, for while their first fewalbums had changed the face of pop music,their first big mass-market hit had comejust as they were in the process of dis¬banding. The band that had chronicled tor¬tured romanticism, urban angst, and sin-gles-bar ennui had succumbed to the veryforces which they had so pointedly dissect¬ed.At the time, it seemed like an end of anera, since Roxy Music, and Ferry’s per¬sona as ultimate casanovarlounge lizard,had been at the forefront of what wascalled Glitter Rock or Glam. Unlike trashgroups such as Gary Glitter, Roxy Musicintelligently investigated issues of classand gender in ways that went beyond thelimits of what had traditionally beencalled “youth music.” Roxy Music, and im¬plicitly Ferry, the brains behind the group,asked the musical question, “What do youdo when you’re Noel Coward in a techno¬logical nightmare?” The answer was awave of urban dance noise, as well as anonslaught of urbane lyric poise, unlike anything heard before or since.When the Punk explosion took place,Ferry was classified as a rock dinosaur, anexample of the kind of hedonistic super-star whose stylish 'Sensibilities onlymasked a slavish subservience to a rottingclass system that needed to be rejected, ifnot destroyed. It didn’t help matters anythat Ferry, along with his peer (but notequal) David Bowie, seemed to be accept¬ing that superstar role, rather than livingup to the Roxy tongue-heavily-in-cheekstandard. It was a war of style. But thePunk stance didn’t take into accountFerry’s parody of the upwardly mobilestance, as well as the fierce and melancho¬lic humanism which stood behind the paro¬dy. If anything, Ferry’s first five Roxyalbums set the stage for the Punk explo¬sion by raising questions of social stratifi¬cation, sexual differentiation, and thefate of modern love. Before Roxy, popwas a terrain full of super-groups andsuper-musicians; Roxy forced the audienceto listen to the song, to regain a connectionto the artist, to reclaim style and redeemstyle. That this effort became another fad¬dish style in itself, another style to be re¬belled against, does not change the impor¬tance of the initial stylistic revolution.Remember, the Punk explosion also be¬came just one more style, one more fad.Pop music itself is a continual and contin¬uous revolution of styles. Rather thanview groups based on the latest explo¬sion, one needs to see the context in whicha group explodes. History is a complicatedthing, as Karl Weintraub once said, and heshould know. This fact remains true: RoxyMusic inalterably changed pop music his¬tory. They were the first true group of theSeventies, the first group with a sensibili-age and mortality in the form of a sleep¬ing child. In the song, it’s basically thesame message. Ferry rolls on, world-weary as ever but having stripped himselfof his glam boy persona, confronting themodern world as well as he can. Not badafter all these years. Ferry’s been refin¬ing this new stance in his solo albums andin his late Seventies/early Eighties re¬groupings of Roxy Music, but this is thefirst time he’s moved beyond the style andpower of those first Roxy albums. Hestands alone, tired but confident, histrenchcoat a shield against the modernworld, with a Chesterfield in hand. Fo»-this, as with all not-so-inconsiderablefavors, we should give thanks.ty rooted firmly in that complex, misun¬derstood, and ineffable decade.What is strangest, perhaps, is that thespectre of Roxy lives on into the “new re¬alism” of the Eighties. It is as if Punk/NewWave had never happened, as if we areliving in a continuum of Glitter Rock asseen in Wham!, Duran, Duran, and count¬less groups whose only sensibility is style,whose only form is fashion, whose onlypurpose is posturing. It isn’t so strangewhen one compares their music to that ofRoxy, for it is then that one rediscoversthe complexity of Ferry’s vision, thehumor and irony and subtlety with whichthat vision is invested, and which is solacking in today’s glam boys. EverythingFerry parodied, the new glam stars com¬pletely accept. If the dominance of these new groups seems Ferry’s failure, it’sPunk’s failure as well. If the mass markethas not been revolutionized and human¬ized, it’s not for want of trying.In fact, Bryan Ferry could have told youall along that the effort was doomed tofailure. He’-s not a tortured romantic fornothing. But it’s the effort that counts, inthe end, and this essential Ferry/Roxymessage is nowhere more in evidence thanin Ferry’s new single and video. Ten yearsafter exploring the narcotic/addictive ne¬cessity of love, Ferry still confesses his en¬slavement to it, in all its trappings, and ac¬cepts his fate. In the video he’s some sortof star, haunted by images of realistic andaestheticized love, who confronts his ownGREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, MAY 31. 1985—5sive and interesting to the press. In order to in¬crease the band’s commercial potential, McLarenreplaced Matlock with John Simon Beverly, who ac¬quired the stage name, Sid Vicious. Vicious, afriend of Johnny Rotten’s from college, toted achain at ail times, and propagated an image ofstrong contempt for life in general.McLaren's plan seemed to work. On March Ninth,1977, A & M records signed a recording contractwith the Pistols outside of Buckingham Palace in amassive publicity stunt. Shortly after this, Rottenwas arrested for possession of speed, and for beat¬ing up a d.j. and a sound engineer at the SpeakEasy Club. A & M recording artists Karen Carpen¬ter, Peter Frampton. and Rick Wakeman demandedthat the label drop the Sex Pistols at once. A & Mdid fust that, but paid the group seventy five thou¬sand pounds for their trouble.On May 13, 1977, Virgin records signed the Pis¬tols and the "God Save the Queen’’ single was re¬leased. The single's cover featured the Queenblindfolded with the song's title, gagged with theband’s name, and stuck through the nose with asafety pin. The single sold two million copies, andquickly moved to the number two spot on the B.B.C.charts, despite numerous bans from record storesand radio stations. Virgin records received threats,the boys received more bad Rfess, and both JohnnyRotten and Paul Cook were badly beaten up in pub¬lic.Two more singles (‘‘Pretty Vacant," July Four¬teenth, 1977. and "Holiday in the Sun,’’ Octoberby Jeff BrillIn 1975, when Malcolm McLaren changed thename of the Chelsea shop, Let it Rock, to Sex, it wasa sign of the emerging trend in subculture. Let itRock had catered to the Teds, selling items such asdrainpipe trousers and bootlace ties. Sex carried afull line of rubOerwear and bondage gear. Theimage of the store was one of cold, androgynoussexuality. The store became a hang-out for kidsdissatisfied with the ritual^, and monotony of fife.They were brought together by their common needto break away from the norms of British society,and express their frustration and boredom.] Glenn Matlock, a weekend employee at Sex,played bass in a group called the Swankers, whichincluded Steve Jones and Paul Cook. The band hungaround the store, and McLaren "Took interest inthem. He became their manager, and changed theirname to the Sex Pistols. The name change helpedsell McLaren’s rubber skirts as well as the group.In addition to being a culture vulture, MalcolmMcLaren was a businessman. He knew the groupneeded a colorful, charismatic lead singer in orderto achieve any type of commercial success. Whengreen-haired, rotten toothed John Lydon walkedinto Sex, McLaren was impressed. After hearinghim sing along to Alice Cooper’s "School’s Out" onthe Sex,jukebox, McLaren sold him on the Pistols.The Pistols first gig was in November of 1975. atthe Saint Martin’s College of Art. John Lydon hadalready been stage-named Johnny Rotten. Theboys sported vaseline spiked hair and safety pins.The show included shockers such as "Anarchy forthe U.K." and their version of "God Save theQueen." Art students and Teds both hurled bottlesand insults at the stage. Both groups felt threat¬ened by the Pistofs.The group played around London, and by thesummer of 1976, they had a steady gig at the OneHundred Club. The band was not accepted by themain stream, but they did begin to generate astrong following »n the underground music scene. Alot of kids feit the same alienation that resulted inthe birth of the Sex Pistols. Other punk bandsbegan to form, such as the Damned, and the Clash.There was so much response, in fact, that EMI re¬cords believed that the Sex Pistols were a worthyenough investment to sign them up wdh a fortythousand pound record contract.On November 26. 1976, "Anarchy for the Lf.K."was released as a single. It was a strong statementof the group’s anti society mentality, with lyrics:i am an Anti-Christ, I am an anarchist, don ’tknow what I want, but I know how to get it, Iwanna destroy passers-by, ’cause I wanna beShortly after this, the band members appeared onBill Grundey's prime time Today Show, along withsome of their followers. When Grundey madepasses at Siouxsie Sioux (future Siouxsie of theBanshees) on the air, the group gave him some ver¬bal abuse which included the word "fuck."Public and press response to the two events wereamazing. E M.I. and Bill Grundey's television sta¬tion received masses of threatening letters, andmany London newspapers ran article after articleon the threats being posed by these offensiveyouths. E.M.l. was receiving an awful lot of pres¬sure to drop the Pistols. Workers in the record¬packing plants were striking, and company share¬holders were threatening to sell their stock. Aftergroup memers publicly drank and vomited inHeathrow Airport, E.M.l. melted the remainingcopies of the single and dismissed the Sex Pistols.In order to secure a new recording contract,McLaren wanted to add a new seffing point to theband.

The album contained thefour singles as well as some new material. Afterthe ablum was released, Virgin chief Richard Bran¬son was prosecuted and fined. The group’s fans, al¬though still a minority, were increasing. The atti¬tude the band displayed was slowly becoming moreaccepted.In early 1978, the band was planning a worldtour, which was to begin with nineteen U.S. gigs. Bythis time, however, the group’s stamina was start¬ing to run out. Both key members. Rotten and Vi- i*'*?cious, were having serious problems.Vicious, who took the whole affair far tooseriously, was trying hard to compete with Rottenfor the media attention. Whereas Rotten was apretty creative vocalist, Vicious had no real musi¬cal talent. He used his bass more as a prop than asan instrument. Vicious, not the brightest member ofthe band, started taking the game too far. Rottenwas happy just burning his arms with cigarettes,spitting on the audience, and snorting speed. Vi¬cious cut himself with pieces of broken glass, as¬saulted members of the audience with his chain,and shot heroin.Rotten was having trouble with McLaren. He wasbecoming sick of McLaren constantly placing com- yilrx1mercialism over the band’s original ideas. He wasalso disgusted with the willingness of the other Pis¬tols to go along with all of McLaren’s ideas.The Sex Pistols hit the United States. McLaren ar¬ranged for most of their gigs to take place in theSouth in order to maximize their shock value. Onstage, the group was subject to insults, and peltedwith beer cans. In San Antonio Texas, Viciouscracked his bass over the head,of an abusive spec¬tator.After what turned out to be their last gig ever(the Winterland, San Francisco, January 14, 1978),McLaren wanted to fly the band to Brazil. RonaldBiggs, a fugitive from the Great Train Robbery,was to warm up for the band with a poetry read¬ing.

The Real 1978I once read with delight of the enragedheadmaster of a London boys’ school — hesent home three students, “rebelliouslads, involved in that punk music" — be¬cause their hair was too short. They wereinstructed not to return until it grew out abit.But spare me the pompous “histories”,the eulogies and tired arguments abouthow meaningless punk in America was —no doubt American and English punk weredifferent, and arose for different reasons— who cares? Even in America it was avery different phenomenon in differentplaces.All I knew was how exciting it was to geton the subway that took me away from mytrashy little neighborhood to high school— that stage on which the contests of ul¬timate 'cool are played. On the subway Iunderwent a welcome metamorphosis —sliding into the leather jacket I had tosmuggle out of the house, and then thechrome red lipstick and black eyelinerthat dad wasn’t supposed to see. Thespiky heeled shoes — roach stompers —from my gym bag. People stared to see mechange shoes, but who cared, bag ladiesdo it, stare back at the fuckers.At first I stayed away a day at a time,24 hours or so and then 48; I stoppedcounting after a while, the days betweengoing home...nightclubbing was a lot morefun...I thought at the time, the more free¬dom I had......life could only get more exciting...II. Little QueenieDebbie was a rockabilly queen who Imet when I was looking for a job, in thatnebulous grey space between my earlyexodus from high school and my unexpect¬ed move out of new york. She was lookingfor a job too, and we both got reamed bythe same total dive. I was supposed to bea salesgirl in this totally gross new waveclothing store — Flip American on 8th st.(so you won’t go there, not that you would)and they told me to come in for trainingthis one night. So after I worked an eighthour shift for the bastards, they say “Oh,you did fine, we’ll call you if we ever needany help.” And not only did they blow meoff, but they didn’t even pay me for theshift I worked, saying it was “training.”Boy, was I pissed. Apparently they didthat to people all the time, and got a lot offree labor that way. The same night theydid the same thing to Debbie, and that’show we met. She was raging when shefound out she wasn’t getting paid. We de¬cided to go for a drink.Next to her, I felt like the total kid sis¬ter. She was really stunning. Platinum bleached hair rolled up into the biggestgreasiest pompadour I’d ever seen (andI’d seen a few). She was dressed in wornout high stilletto pumps, tight blackknickers and a tight sleeveless blouse, fullbreasts high in a push-up bra. Her facewas not pretty but it was womanly andstrong; she chewed a big pink wad of gum.She wore big fake eyelashes and tons ofearrings and bangles. On her left calf shehad a tattoo of a dagger, and on her rightshoulder a tattoo of a woman with a cat’shead, reclining (a la Betty Boop) in a cham¬pagne glass.We first went to the Holiday CocktailLounge, a real in-group hangout. But itwas a dead night there; the only personwe knew there was Angel.“There’s that old leech Angel,” saysDebbie.Angel was famous because she was a su¬burban housewife, like 45 years old, whobecame an alcoholic punk and moved tothe city and dyed her hair pink real earlyon. Everybody knew her because sheworked in Trash. Neither of us felt likebuying her a drink so we left without talk¬ing to her.Anyway we figured out then we knewlots of people in common. Lots of almost-famous types. Like Zoe.“Yeah, I know Zoe. We hung outsome.”“Yeah, they’re making a movie aboutZoe.”“For real?”“Yeah, some NYU students.”“Oh, big deal. Maybe he’ll getfamous.”“Maybe he’ll stop pushing smack.”"For real.”We tried the St. Marks Bar and Grill,which we knew would be very beat at thispoint but at least was cheap.“I used to come here with Michael Coo¬per.”“You know Michael Cooper, with the bigBRENDA STARR lips and mohawk?”“He just got that mohawk. You likeit?”“No, I think it looks ugly.”“For real. He gave me this gold chain.”“Oh yeah?”“Yeah, I was at his house and he had awhole box of gold jewelry and let me pickwhat I wanted.”“Michael Cooper gave you that?”“Yeah.”"He gave me crabs.”“For real? Fuckin’ men. That must havebeen a drag.”“Yeah.”We saw Melanie come in, who actuallyused to be Michael Cooper’s girlfriend, butwe didn’t talk to her, because, as it hap¬pened, neither of us liked her.“You know, she’s got a baby, living withher sister in Vermont.”“She from Vermont?”“Yeah.”“Fuckin’ grit.”“She’s a friend of my friend Lex.”“Lex? That’s a mean girl.”“Nothing meaner than the girlfriend ofthe lead singer of an almost-famousband.”“That’s the truth.”And so on, until we’d exhausted a rosterof names, and got really drunk, and Deb¬bie was saying, “So you really used to liveon St. Marks?”“Yeah, but we got evicted.”“So you’re looking for a place now?”“Yeah.”“Me too. Where you staying?”“At my parents in Flushing.”“Oh yeah?” she brightens. “I’m stayingwith my mom in Bayside. Take the 7train?”“Yeah. Bayside, huh?”The train ride was a trip, I remember,because this sailor saw Debbie’s tattoo,and wanted to talk to her about where shegot it done and show us his tattoo. He wassaying how his wife couldn’t understandwhy he was always wanting to get moretattoos, (he had a lot) and he would justtell her, “When I die, you can make a realpretty lampshade outta me.”Even Debbie, who was tough, blanched aMY ASSIGNMENT'S IN J UH UH, ALL I’LLHAITI -* BUT I'LL BE \TELL YOU ISIN MIAMI OVERNIGHT. ] THAT IT'S THEWHAT'RE yOU WORKING j LATEST PUNKON THAT'S SO y SUPERSTARHOT?

ViVZv BOWL..:Fuz#h bit at that one.The other thing was, once we left thelower east side people were staring at uslike crazy, because Debbie was really wildlooking with that pompadour. And if shesaw someone looking at her she’d yell,“Why don’t ya take a picture, it lastslonger.”Off the train in Flushing we went into aBurger King where Debbie got into a bigfight with a girl working at the counter.The girl said, Do you want some ice, andDebbie said yeah and the girl said howmuch and Debbie said I don’t know, justgive me some fucking ice and the girl gotreally pissed off. So then we waited a re¬ally long time in the back of Burger Kingso Debbie could beat up this girl.Then she was telling me about how shethought sometimes she should leave NewYork, because it was so hard to find a joband an apartment. She told me about howshe hated the girls in Queens, and how shedidn’t know her dad,, and how her momused to listed to Gene Vincent and EddieCochran and of course Elvis when she wasgrowing up, and how they still both doeven now.She said that when she first startedhanging with punks she met a lot of rock¬abilly people, but how there weren’t verymany anymore, because it wasn’t so fash¬ionable anymore. She said (and wrenchedmy heart, she seemed so lonely) that whatshe really wanted was a cool rockabillyboyfriend.I said I might be going to Chicago and Iheard that there was a rockabilly sceneout there.She said what for and I said I might go tocollege there. She said maybe she shouldgo there if there were rockabilly kids outthere but she sure wasn’t going back toschool, it was a miracle she graduatedhigh school when she hated school somuch.Debbie yelled at the Burger King girlwhen she came out and smacked her oncebut it wasn’t much fun and the girl just ranaway. Instead of chasing her we went intoLenny’s Clam Bar where we used thebathroom and exchanged phonenumbers.III.The 1978 UpdateIt makes no sense to me to say that punkis dead — in what sense was it ever a liv¬ing thing, a definable entity? Some peoplehave changed their mode of dress since1978, as people are wont to do; somenightclubs have changed hands, somebands have broken up or changed theirsounds — that’s how pop culture alwaysworks, no big deal.In 1978, it felt like it was more than just'a set of related styles in music and fash¬ion, connected by a vague implicit ideo¬logy. But now, I don’t know.In New York, punk always had a realpost-mortem feeling to it, or something —always somebody was saying it was over,or it was only real in England, or all thereal punks were gone.Where were the real punks? People withno hair and no money, people shooting upand people turning tricks didn’t even feellike they were legit. Nobody ever says, Iwas a real live original punk. Not in thiscountry.When you cut a cockroach in half with aspoon in your sink full of dirty dishes, thefront half keeps on crawling...that’s MTV,Cyndi Lauper, bondage wear at Blooming-dales, Valley Girl, Hollywood hardcore,little kids dressed up as punks for Hallow¬een, Fiorucci’s — these things used to real¬ly offend me, really make me nauseous. Ithought, these people are making fun ofsomething people take seriously — some¬thing I take seriously!Whatever that something was, is lost tous forever. And what that somethingwasn’t — lots of things it wasn’t — havebeen absorbed into consumption culture,so that there’s always something there toremind us...OH, NO, CAL/ I COULPN'T POSSIBLY/IT 50UNPS TOO FESTIVE ANP WILPFOR THE WAY I FEEL RIGHTNOW.»J8 DB OB'Cl'r rirmr u wv » u u u u u(oooooooooooo>0 00 0 0 0 0 00 00>0 00 00.L 0 0 0 o oflo o o o o>00000'00000000000000000000 0-0 0000000000000 00000000000000000000000oooolooiooo0000 Voo MooA 000 ft O I O ft oI 0000000000(0000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000 cfo dVo 0000000000000000000000000000000000 q\±j/o0000000000000000000000000000000OOOOOO 00 O O ^ OA C^>A o OjyD O O 0 O O O O 00 OOOOO (j OOP00 00 00/?>polfiAQooEoQ0000 ooto^o00000 o o_o o oTTo o00000000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000000 o£ O Of 000000000000000000_0_0 Q QjOJ) Q O O OM^O Oo o fb o oo 0§ 000 Bo 0 0ouluO0M0OUO&000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000g Ag g g ggg g g g o o o Q g Q O Q p Q P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q fl Q P..O-P Q P Q-ft-Q OOOOOOOOOOOO0000 0 0_ 0 0O O0000000000000000000000ooooooooooooooooooooooooo o o p o o oo o0 o ofUVUUUOQOO1fOOO8—FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1985—GREY OITY JOURNALSPECIAL HSCOUNTSFORAIISIUKNTSAND FACUUYJust present your University of Chicago identification card.As students or faculty members you are entitled to specialmoney-saving DISCOUNTS on Chevrolet and Volkswagenparts, accessories and any new or used automobile you buyfrom Ruby Chevrolet/Volkswagen.RUSTY JONESRUSTPROOFINGORCHAMPMANHOOD LOCK7234 STONY ISLAND2 Miles-5 Minutes AwayFrom The University684-0400'CHEVROLET/VOLKSWAGEN INTERNATIONAL HOUSESPEAKER SERIES PRESENTSDEMIS BRUTUSCURRENTEVENTSINSOUTHAFRICATEES.

If you were to ask John(“Johnny Rotten’’) Lydon what happenedto it, he would tell you, without hesitation,that punk is dead. There may still begroups playing punk rock, and there maystill be fans who feign allegiance to thepunk movement by dressing in stereotypi¬cal “punk gear” — the safety pins, themake-up. the haircuts; but like punk musicitself, the movement was fast and short —it had its heyday from 1976-1978 andblew itself out as the media and generalpublic finally subverted it into meaning¬lessness.In 1976, England was in terrible econom¬ic shape. Unemployment was very high,and for the poor there seemed to be no fu¬ture. There were riots in Brixton and otherpredominantly black ghettos, and theyouth of the nation was getting angrierand more desperate. The music scene wasstagnant — dominated by huge, rich ar¬tists years past their prime. Old acts likethe Rolling Stones, the Who, David Bowie,Paul McCartney, and Elton John were theonly people to get radio airplay, and therecord companies were in the comfortableeconomic position where it was no longernecessary to search for new acts. But bub¬bling underneath the surface of Londonwas a new type of music; raw, fast, andhard, punk expressed the anger and thetimes of Britain’s youth.The most influential band of the punkera was the Sex Pistols (Johnny Rotten-vocals, Steve Jones-guitar, Paul Cook-drums, Glen Matlock (later Sid Vicious)-bass. and manager Malcom McLaren) whoplayed their first show in January of1976. The Pistols played with an intensityunlike anything seen before. Like at earlyWho gigs, people booed, walked out, orwere simply awe-struck at the early Pis¬tols shows. The group didn't want cloyingfans, they were out to create confronta¬tion. The punk movement started to grow HISTORY OF PUNK: PRETTYVACANTas the Pistols gained an audience, andsmall clubs started to book burgeoningpunk acts inspired by the Pistols.During their short career, the Sex Pis¬tols only released four singles and one LP.But those four singles, especially theirfirst, “Anarchy in the U.K.,’’ were respon¬sible for breaking open punk rock. It ishard to describe the intensity of “An¬archy” — the opening bars and JohnnyRotten’s demonic howl have a chilling, al¬most religious power to them. “Anarchy”is pure anger on vinyl, and easily one ofthe most important rock songs ever re¬corded.The Pistols second single, “God Save theGueen,” was released at the height of thecelebration of the Oueen’s Silver Jubilee.The desperate power of Rotten’s vocalspush the meaning of the lyrics into a newrealm as it becomes readily evident thatthis attack on the Oueen is no joke:Clash clamp down. When there’s no futureHow can there be sin?We’re the flowers in the dustbinWe’re the poison in your humanmachineWe’re the futureYour future.New bands started springing up daily asthe Pistols gained in popularity. Thegroup opened a show at the Nashville clubfor an R & B band called the 101er’s. Im¬mediately after seeing the Pistols play,101er’s lead singer Joe Strummer brokeup his group to form a punk band. Joiningup with guitarist Mick Jones and bassplayer Paul Simonon, whom he had firstmet standing on the dole line, Strummerbecame the lead singer of the Clash.In terms of musical impact, next to theSex Pistols, the Clash were probably theRECORDSMOD MR. ROGERSDavid 3yrneMusic for the Knee PlaysI have finally decided why I like DavidByrne so much. He reminds me of MisterRogers. His simplistic attitude in suchsongs as “Uh-Oh, Love Comes to Town”and “Don’t Worry About the Government”is both comforting and authoritative. Ialways enjoy listening to him because Iknow he likes me and accepts me for whatI am. I only wish that he would wear anoversized cardigan instead of a largewhite suit. Still, he has never seemedquote so paternal as he is on his latestalbum. Music for the Knee Plays.The Knee Plays are a series of smallskits, or joints, between the main acts inRobert Wilson’s The Civil Wars, or a Tree isBest Measured When it is Down. The KneePlays are designed to take place at thefront of the stage while the scenery for themain play is being changed. This aspect ofthe performance was a decisive factor inByrne’s composition of the music. Themusic consists almost entirely of brass in¬struments. Byrne cites two reasons for thischoice. First, it is easier to move a horn sec¬tion on stage than it is a grand piano. Sec¬ond, the sound of the horns covers up anynoise that would take place in the move¬ment of the scenery. The music is good,with the brass ensemble producing inter¬esting atmospheric sounds, but the realmerit of Music for the Knee Plays lies inthe monologues recited over five of the songs in which Byrne plays his MisterRogers character to the hilt.In “Tree.” Byrne tells of a woman who,in getting dressed for an important occa¬sion, feels that 1 The right combination ofclothes will make her lucky.” He delvesinto such detail (“a blue dress for intu¬ition, a pullover and woolen skirt for dis¬covering mystery”), that I have found my¬self carefully choosing my wardrobe oflate.In “Social Studies,” Byrne claims thatone can become like a certain person byeating the same food as that person. Thisfact, Byrne states, has led to his desire tosteal other peoples’ groceries. He specu¬lates that if he did steal someone’s grocer¬ies and eat them, he would begin to leadthe same life as that person, going to thesame places and doing the same things.That is, as long as te groceries held out.“In the Future” is Byrne’s attempt atimitating Jean Dixon. For every view ofthe future he states, he presents an equal¬ly contrasting scene. For example, heclaims, “In the future, no one will fightwith anyone else. In the future, there willbe an atomic war.” At first glance, thiscontrast seems to be mere speculative con¬fusion. However, Byrne is really making astatement about the unpreditability oflife. It is almost like Mister Rogers saying,“The future is up to you children.

The entire album (includingthe instrumentals, which I have shortedhere) is unique and creative.

New OrderLow-LifeFrom their obscure beginnings as theStiff Kittens, to their tragic career as JoyDivision, to their present industrial rockincarnation, New Order has made it apoint to remain somewhat anonymous andnon-commercial. They remain distant fromtheir fans, generally ignoring pleas for in¬terviews and videos. They even refuse toput their names and pictures on theiralbum covers; or at least, that was thecase until the release of their new album,Low-life.Low-life appears to be somewhat of anemergence for New Order. The albumcover and liner sleeve consist of four largeportraits of the band members. The songsare more personal, with titles like “LoveVigilantes,” “The Perfect Kiss,” and “ThisTime of Night.” In fact, almost all of thetracks on Low-life deal with love, a topicwhich has been previously ignored by NewOrder. Except for their recent single“Thieves Like Us,” the band’s lyrics havetended to be dark and dreary. Lyrics havealways been secondary to New Order. OnLow-life, however, the lyrics are muchmore coherent and dominant.“Love Vigilante,” which opens thealbum, deals with a soldier’s homecomingafter an extended period in battle. The re¬frain of “I want to see my family, my wifeand child waiting for me. I want to gohome, I feel so alone, you see” expressesthe album’s general theme of detachmentfrom love. “This Time of Night” followsalong this theme, providing the listenerwith an endless chant of “without you.”That is, “Without you I’m left alone, with¬out you I’m on my own, without you I am inpain, without you I’ve gone insane,” etc.,etc... In “Sub-culture,” a frustrated indi¬vidual claims, “I always try, I alwaysmiss,” referring, of course, to love. Thesong professes that no one can live alone;eventually, they must submit to an inher¬ent need for companionship. The last trackon the album, “Face Up,” deals with oneman’s acceptance of unrequited love. Theline, “Now you see your own dark face.It’s dying in a lonely place,” is his ratio¬nalization of his lover’s actions.From the personal nature of the lyrics onLow-life, it appears that the band has de¬cided to discard their post punk depres¬sion. New Order’s evolution out of Joy Di¬vision, a group known for its dreariness,obviously affected the band’s style. Timehas passed, however, and New Orderseems to be less concerned with beingdark and mysterious.Along with New Order’s lyrical progres¬sion, Low-life also displays somewhat of amusical evolution for the band. Althoughsynthesizers have always been used byNew Order, they have never been as domi¬nant as they are on this album. NewOrder’s experience with synths hasproved that they know how to use themwell. Most of the songs on Low-life take onan added dynamic quality from the em¬phasis of synthesizers. In general, NewOrder’s propensity for change on Low-lifewill stand as testament to their creativityand inventiveness. —Rick Wojcik most important band to come out of thepunk movement. While the Pistols tendedto be a singles-oriented band, the Clash'seponymously-titled first LP was a dense,cohesive, and fiery document about grow-inq up on the dole in Great Britain. Sonqslike “London’s Burning,” “Hate and War”"Cheat, and punk classic “White Riot,”about the Notting Hill carnival riots, ex¬pressed the bitter frustration of the Brit¬ish youth.The British press played a large role inestablishing the “punk image,” or moreaccurately, what was mistakenly thoughtof as the punk image. The Daily Mirrorversion of punk rock spoke of violent fanswith safety pins in their cheeks and punkgroups who vomited on their pogoing au¬dience to their utter delight. The press ex¬ploded after the Sex Pistols appeared onThames television’s live Today show. HostBill Grundy provoked the band by askingthem to “say something outrageous” andbassist Glen Matlock responded by callingGrundy a “dirty bastard,” and, aftermore provoking, a “dirty fucker.” ThamesTV suspended Grundy for two weeks forthe incident. The press went wild withanti-punk articles and headlines like “TheFoul-Mouthed Yobs,” and “The Punks —Rotten and Proud of It: Worthless, Deci¬dedly Inferior, Displeasing.”The media hype reached its peak afterthe Sex Pistols released “God Save theQueen.” The song was banned by the BBC,and yet still made it to number one on thecharts. Due to the lyrical nature of thesong, gangs of “patriotic” thugs wentaround London “punk bashing” to avengethe Sex Pistols' insult to their Queen. SexPistols drummer Paul Cook was severelybeaten up, and Johnny Rotten was badlyslashed with a razor.When the media image of punk eventu¬ally eclipsed the movement itself, punkcould no longer progress. Everything thepunks did was inevitably blown up anddistorted by the press. The movement’slast breath came when the Sex Pistolstoured America. As they stormed throughsmall clubs in the South, the Pistols creat¬ed a mini-media boom in America. Hardlywriting any new songs at this point, theywere no longer a rock group, but animage, an icon for punk rock. The worst af¬fected was Pistol bassist Sid Vicious. Asthe Pistols were paraded around America,Vicious played out his role as a “punk” —strung out on drugs and alcohol, violent,and cutting himself with knives andrazors. Vicious had succumbed to his ownmedia image, living up exactly to whatthe press portrayed him as. Finally, aftera performance in San Francisco, Rottenfelt it was time to end it. The time for thePistols was over, and Rotten — now usingis real name again, John Lydon — perhapsthe single most important figure in punkrock, knew it was time to move on.Recently on WNBC-TV in New York, JohnLydon snidely told an interviewer that hewas responsible for the success of BoyGeorge. The bubbly, middle-aged inter¬viewer chuckled warmly at Lydon’s ob¬viously “ridiculous comment” and movedto her next question.Lydon was being humorous, but not offbase. Punk did seriously change the musicbusiness. As CBS Records executive DanLoggins said of punk in 1977, “It’s gonnagive the business the kick up the arse itneeds.” The records companies had almostabandoned taking the trouble to discovernew bands. But the strong sales of songs'like “God Save the Queen,” forced themusic business to sign new bands and getback in touch with the young music scene.In the aftermath of punk came some ofthe most adventurous bands of the 70’sand 80’s. Punk opened up the door forsuch “post-punk” bands as Gang of Four,Public Image Ltd., Joy Division, NewOrder, U2, and Cabaret Voltaire — bandswhich never could have gained the oppor¬tunity to record without the changeswrought by punk.Soon after the demise of the Sex Pistols,John Lydon went on to form Public ImageLtd. Lydon’s new band purposely keeps avery low profile. Lydon saw how publicimage corrupted and eventually led hisfriend Sid Vicious to overdose on heroin.With his new band, Lydon is sure to keeptheir “public image limited,” so to speak,to prevent image from eclipsing themusic.What of the other punk bands? Somehave died out, some still slog along, tryingto remain locked within the genre of punk.Some groups, most notably the Clash,have tried to vary their style and still pro¬duce interesting music.Most importantly, punk has reminded usthat rock music must be played with pas¬sion; it must come from the heart, or it isnothing. The corporate rock bands canturn out formula music wich sells millions,but the important rock artists havealways started out as “punks” — be itElvis Presley, Chuck Berry, John Lennon,Mick Jagger, Sly Stone, or John Lydon,music cannot be a pose: it must be a com¬mittment.10—FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1985—GREY CITY JOURNALOur outstanding loansto Mexico and Braziltotal $0.Our outstanding loansto Hyde Park-Kenwoodand the greaterSouth Sidetotal over $32,000,000.Hyde Park Banks loan portfoliodefinitely lacks the "international"character of the big downtown banks.Our depositors like it that way.

Don’t buy that stereo system!Most stereo systems, especially thosepurchased at the big chains like PacificStereo, don’t produce very good soundand aren’t worth what you pay forthem. Unfortunately, the aim ofreproducing enjoyable music oftengets lost in the high-tech glitz andmeaningless technologicalmeasurements that have nothing to dowith the quality of the reproducedsound. That’s why this article doesn’tgo into detail about technology. If youbuy the brands listed at the end of thisarticle, you won’t have to worry aboutspecifications such as .0005. THD. Thisarticle tells you how to auditi:n,choose, and buy the best sound you canget for your money.Choosing a StoreThere are two factors to consider inchoosing where to buy your stereosystem. First, find a store which car¬ries the brands listed at the end of thisarticle. These manufacturers takepride in their products and generallysell through stores which make anhonest effort to please their customers.(Generally the mass market Japanesebrands such as Sony, Marantz,Technics, etc. aren’t very good. Theymay measure well on paper, but theysound electronic, harsh, and distortedin comparison with the more accuratenatural sound of good components.) Se¬cond, find a store that you feel com¬fortable in. Some stereo stores that sellboth $600 systems and $20,000 systemstreat their $600 customers like peons,or talk down to them. If you get treatedlike that, leave. There are many storeswhich will treat you well in hopes ofgetting future or referral business.Also some of the better stores will on¬ly have a few speakers in the listeningroom, as there’s some evidence thatdisconnected speakers canreverberate with the music distortingit.You can also buy your system mailorder, usually saving from 10 to 20.. Ihave had very good results dealingwith Direct Sound, in Atlanta, Georgia.Their telephone number is (404) 233-9500. They consistently give good ad¬vice and treat their customers fairly.They do tend a bit towards massmarket components, so stick to thebrands I’ve recommended, unlessyou’re willing to go out and do researchon your own.It’s not really kosher to spend hoursat a good stereo store evaluating com¬ponents and then buy your system mailorder. On the other hand, it probably iskosher to listen in on someone else’sauditioning for a bit to see what youlike. Use discretion.The BasicsA stereo system is made up of com¬ponents. These components are: 1) amusic signal source, such as a turn¬table (record player), cassette deck, ortuner; 2) a preamplifier, which is acontrol center that allows you to adjustthe volume, treble and bass, and tochoose among the turntable, cassettedeck, etc.; 3) an amplifier, whichmakes the signal loud enough to drive,4) the speakers, which convert thesignal from electricity into sound.Japanese brands such asSony, Marantz, Technics,etc. aren’t very good.The TurntableThe turntable consists of the platter,that does the actual spinning; the car¬tridge, which creates the signal, andthe tonearm, which carries the car¬tridge across the record. The new high-tech fashion in turntables is directdrive. Don’t buy a direct drive turn¬table. You want a belt-drive turntable,where the motor drives the platterthrough a belt. This isolates themotor’s vibrations from the platter, sothe sound is purer. There are other arguments on both sides, but the bot¬tom line is that the best sounding turn¬tables are belt-driven.Less expensive turntables come as apackage, with tonearm, andsometimes cartridge, included. Moreexpensive turntables require that youfit a custom tonearm. The customtonearms are not automatic, but thereare inexpensive gadgets availablewhich will lift the tonearm at the end ofa record.It’s important that you get a goodplatter mat, if your turntable doesn’tcome with one Otherwise, there won’the good contact between the record^.nd the platter, and the record willvibrate, distorting the soundThere are two Linds of cartridges,moving coil and moving magnet Themoving coil cartridges generally pro¬duce a more accurate, but weakersignal. They are also more expensivethan moving magnet cartridges. For¬tunately, there is a line of movingmagnet cartridges, made in America(in Brooklyn!), which sound as good asmost moving magnets, and are very af¬fordable, called Grado.Cassette DecksThe latest thing in cassette decks isthe noise reduction system calledDolby C. This provides a better soundthan Dolby B, when the deck is workingproperly. The noise reduction systemcalled dbx doesn’t work as well aseither Dolby system, in my experience.It tends to distort the music. Anotherrecent development in cassette decksis metal tape. (There are differenttypes of tapes, get the salesman to ex¬plain the differences or to recommenda tape. It’s too technical for this arti¬cle. ) Unless you’re going to record livesound, experiments have shown thatDolby C and good conventional tapesound very close to metal tape.Generally, I don’t like automatic reverse cassette decks, except forNakamichi. The reversing tends to putthe tape out of alignment with the deck.Preamplifier, Amplifier, TunerThese components are availableseparately or all in one box. If all threeare in one box, it’s called a receiver (a-hah!). If just the preamplifier and theamplifier are in one box, it’s called anintegrated amplifier.There are advantages and disad¬vantages to either choice. If you buy areceiver, it’s much easier to movearound, there aren’t as many connec¬ting cables, and you only have to makenne decision. On the other hand, if youbuy separates, each component is like¬ly to sound better, it’s less expensive toupgrade your system in the future, andif you’re tuner isn’t working, you canstill listen to the cassette deck, as op¬posed to the receiver, where if you loseone function, you tend to lose them all.The latest thing in cassettedecks is the noise reductionsystem called Dolby C.These components tend to get fairlytechnical, so there’s not much that’sappropriate to say here. I tend to leanaway from receivers, but I tend to bevery demanding of stereo equipment.The best compromise for many peopleis the integrated amplifier, particular¬ly for anything less than a $1,500system. The hot integrated amplifiersright now in the affordable price rangeare the Rote! RA 820 BX and the NAD3120. Neither of these has tone controls,but they sound amazing. (I think thattone controls are fairly useless, undermost circumstances. They distort theEpstein Archives in the Reg:a valuable but ignored resourceBy Alex ConroyForty years ago, Max Epstein gave$1 million for an art center at the Uni¬versity of Chicago that would “...en¬hance the quality of human life,” ex¬plained Dan Reich, graduate student inart history and curator of the EpsteinArchives. The result was one of thelargest photo archives in the Midwestcontaining, among others, the photo¬graphs from Epstein’s own personalcollection, valuable now both for theirsubject matter and age.The archives contain all varieties ofphotographic-type image: those direct¬ly from a camera as well as those frombooks and catalogues, and even post¬cards. There is some micro-fiche ofmuseum collections and copies ofprints, woodcuts and engravings. Un¬usual exhibits include a collection ofpictures of papal medals and the illus¬trations to the Bartsch texts on art.There are a total of five hundred thou¬sand pieces, images of works of art.-paintings, sculptures etc. There areeven a few original prints.The use of individual photos has de¬clined; most people prefer slides or artbooks. Some sceptics even say a collec¬tion such as the Epstein is useless.Reich defends photographs. “The ad¬vantage is...suppose you want to com¬pare an artist’s sculptures — his Ma¬donna’s. You can lay them all out atonce and make a comparison,” whichis impossible with book illustrations orslides.Professors from the art history andclassics departments, as well as somefrom the divinity school make use ofthe archives, putting photos on re¬serve. Reich thinks the facility shouldbe more widely used for research andstudy. He feels that there are other dis¬ciplines which could use the collectionif they knew what was available; if thearchives had more publicity. A psy¬chology professor, for example, madeuse of copies of works by Van Gogh andMunch.The archives are still growingthrough requests made and funded byfaculty members. Such recently ob¬ tained pieces are usually produced bymuseums or photographic companiesand are high-quality although in blackand white. Previous works were not aswell done and much of the labor in¬volves preserving and restoring olderphotos because, as Linda Moses, anemployee explained, “What was state-of-the-art fifteen years ago is now ri¬diculous.” Also, low funding makelarge new acquisitions difficult.The employees are kept busy re¬mounting photos which, according toReich, look as if they had been fixed toshirt cardboard by library paste andare now processed with “Our new,acid-free, perfectly balanced, will-last-forever (biodegradable, just in case)”method known as “dry-mount.” No oneis always quite sure how to salvage oldphotographs; people learn through ap¬prenticeship or trial and error. One ofthe Epstein staff’s goals, according toMoses, is to produce a handbook withinstructions like “If you see a photolike this; you do x, y, and z.”While some of the old mountings areso frail that they have self-destructed;others, equally bad for the pictures,hold together obstinately and have tobe soaked to remove the backing. Cur¬rently, “We don’t do things which wedon’t know how to reverse,” Mosessaid. Finally, after many years oferrors, “The tendency is to admit thetechniques are passing,” Reich ob¬served, adding, “I think they (the Uni¬versity) should be interested in savingthis (collection). There’s a lot of valu¬able material here.”Along with restoration, the archivesstaff is attempting to catalogue anumber of disorganized pieces. Theprevious curator began the project, butdue to the short term of office — oneyear — he was unable to finish and theend is not yet close. Reich hopes is suc¬cessor will continue the work. In themeantime, the archives are seekingfunding in grants, and publicity in theMaroon. The collection and study roomare located on the fourth floor of Re-genstein Library and the businesshours are the same as those for the ArtReserve section. sound too much for the degree of con¬trol they provide. So do equalizers.)SpeakersAlthough speakers look very simplecompared to, say, the flashing lights ofa cassette deck, the underlyingtheories are pretty technical. For¬tunately, speakers are probably theeasiest piece of equipment to evaluateby ear.Compact DisksThe only Compact Disk player T cansincerely recommend .s the MissionDAD-7000. It costs about $700. The pro¬blem is that the technology is tc<j new.Wait another year or two, andwhatever you do, don’t buy one of thebig-name Japanese players, for thereasons given above. Go with Mission,or Meridian, or wait awhile.Budgeting Your SystemYou should probably spend thehighest percentage on your turntable,and the lowest percentage on yourspeakers. Otherwise, your inexpensiveturntable will be feeding a muddysignal into your expensive speakers.You will get amplified mud. Also, ifyou have relatively inexpensivespeakers for your first pair, you canlater use them as extension speakers inthe kitchen or wherever.Choosing ComponentsOnce you’ve found a stereo store thatyou like, the best way I know of tochoose components is to listen to themplay music that you like. It’s importantto bring along records that you knowand like and are in good condition, sothat you have a standard that you cancarry from system to system.Once you’ve got the music going,listen to at least a full piece or move¬ment, and preferably more. Rapidswitching from one component toanother will only tend to blur the twotogether, but a quick switch from oneto the other after 10 or 15 minutes willmake differences obvious.Important factors to pay attention toinclude, in no particular order: howmuch detail you can hear in the music(do back-up singers or musicians tendto blur together when a solo starts.. );how comfortable you physically feelwhile you listen (this is a stunningly ac¬curate measurement of distortion andirritation in the music. If you don’t feelrelaxed, you’re not really enjoying themusic); how good does the systemsound at low volume; the extent towhich you can locate various in¬struments or singers, and any idiosyn¬cratic concerns, such as strong bass ordelicate vocals.An Affordable SystemThe least expensive system I canrecommend in good conscience wouldstart with a Dual 50505-2 turntable, theHarmon Kardon T-30C, or the Bang ..Olufsen (B..O) RX, all around $150.Anything less is a waste of money. TheDual is absolutely the best value inturntables. The least expensive Gradocartridge is $25, and sounds wonderful.An NAD 3120 or Rotel RA 820 BX in¬tegrated amplifier is also an excellentvalue, for about $200 (Remember, thisdoesn’t include a tuner. If you want atuner, the NAD 4020B or Rotel RT 820would be fine, as would be a used tuner.Most radio stations don’t put out veryclean signals).There are a wide range of inexpen¬sive speakers available. The BostonAcoustics A40, and the Wharfdale Dia¬mond, both around for $175°pair, havewon international acclaim. The AR18Bis also a nice speaker for the money.Add good speaker cables (an ab¬solute must) and a good platter mat(another must), and the retail systemcost is around $600.

Finally, the majority of the fac¬ulty contacted feel that there are stillmany questions to be answered aboutthe proposal that need to be an¬swered.Bert Cohler, professoi in the Depart¬ment of Social Sciences and a memberof the College Council, expressed someof the faculty’s anx'eties over Dean Le¬vine’s proposal, he caid that the mostpersuasive argument in favor of theproposal is that it will allow greaterflexibility for the students. “Currentlythe differing requirements of thevarious divisions may pose real hard¬ships for the students,” Cohler said.But, he noted, although the proposalwill allow greater flexibility for the stu¬dent, he does not want to sacrifice thein-depth nature of the University ofChicago education. Currently the divi¬sions control the common core curricu¬lum which make this a distinctive partof the U of C education.“Considering the relative lack of so¬cial life at the U of C this is perhaps theone aspect of the college which reallydoes attract students,” he commented.Finally, Cohler hoped eventually alarger number of faculty and studentswill provide input concerning the prob¬lems of the curriculum. He is afraidthat consultations with the CollegeCouncil members only will not suffi¬ciently reveal the advantages an disad¬vantages of a core change.Ralph Lerner, professor in the Social Sciences believes that predictions can¬not be made about whether the propos¬al is good or bad because one cannotpredict the students’ response. But, hesaid that it is “less a question of what isthe proposal and more important ofhow it can be realized in a coherent andorgani ed manner.” It the proposal forihe common core is well organizedthen it could improve *he core.However, Lerner also warned that itis “very difficult to take any plan suchas this from paper and put into effect inactuality.” He said of the current com¬mon core that “Now it is very difficultto make a common core course, withthe proposal it could be easier.” Final¬ly, he believes the chances of the pro¬posal being approved are “great.”The professor strongly be¬lieves that the administra¬tion wants to cover-up for ashortage of professors inter¬ested in teaching undergrad¬uate students.John MacAloon, Associate Professorin the Social Sciences, had much to sayabout Levine’s proposal. He feels thatthe proposed changes are not majorchanges in the curriculum, but he stillthinks that there are two mainstrengths to the proposal: 1) The pro¬posal rationalizes the quantity of re¬quirements in the college; for instancea language would be required of every¬one, currently a language is deemedimportant for some students and notfor others. 2) The proposal presentsmore true elective space for the stu¬dents. As Cohler had mentioned, it willgive greater flexibility for the stu¬dent.Aside from the strengths in the pro¬posals, MacAloon feels that many questions still need to be answeredabout the specifics in the proposal. Forinstance, he wonders whether thereshould be a floor requirement of com¬petence in Math or a Language. If astudent has not reached a certain com¬petence of a foreign language in highschool, should he have to pay full tu¬ition to catch up, i.e. should there a tu¬ition ceiling? Finally, he asks what lan¬guage should be required and whatmeasure of competence should the stu¬dent reach. MacAloon feels that thesequestions need to be addressed by theCollege Council before the proposalcan be approved.Furthermore, MacAloon stated, “Iwill be disappointed if this (the propos¬al) is not the beginning of furtherchanges,” returning to the college widepro^’ems presented in the 1984 TaskForce report. He said that some ofthese Droblems are just as importantas or more important than the commoncore issue. In the opinion of some pro¬fessors the common core problem isminor compared to other problemspresent in the college.Eric Cochrane, professor in the His¬tory department and chairman of theWestern Civilization department, saidoverall he could not give any definiteopinions about Levine’s proposal be¬cause they were “generic” proposalswhich need further discussion.” But hebelieves that “to rethink or reevaluatethe common core is a practical mat¬ter.” Cochrane points out that in West¬ern Civilization there is a lack of facul¬ty. Under the proposal there would betwo quarters of Western Civilizationrequired and a third quarter given asan optional course. This could reducethe pressure placed on the diminishingfaculty. But Cochrane emphasized,this format “does not mean WesternCivilization would be abbreviated. His¬tory cannot be abbreviated.”Cochrane also feels that the lan¬ guages should be reevaluated by theadministration. As MacAloon implied,the high school should play a greaterrole in preparing the students for col¬lege level language courses. Finally,he thinks that in college the studentshould be able to read and write in aforeign language.Of all the faculty responses, only oneprofessor, who wished to have hisname withheld, gave an unfavorableopinion about Levine’s proposal. Al¬though he admits he is speculating, theprofessor strongly believes that the ad¬ministration wants to cover-up for ashortage of professors interested inteaching undergraduate students. Thisprofessor explained that professors aredrawn to the University for its name,but most of all they come to the Univer¬sity because of the opportunity to do re¬search and publish articles; all ofwhich will build their reputationamong their peers. Through Levine’sproposals the administration can ac¬commodate those professors who wishto d-j other things other than teach. Theproposal would streamline the com¬mon core, such as reducing WesternCivilization from three to two requiredquarters, and replace the lacking pro¬fessors with graduate students orHarper instructors. The result is thatthe college student will pay full tuitionfor possibly a lower quality education.The unnamed professor further ex¬plained that this problem is not uniqueto the U of C. Many of the nameschools, such as Harvard, have thesame problem but in a greater de¬gree.He believes that the students shouldask the administration “Who will beteaching the courses offered by theproposal and why?” Also, “what is theteaching load of full facultymembers?” And finally, “Is the con¬cern of the U of C administration forthe college students?”DR.

Slick andsleazy, her high-tech, processed-popsound may catch the ear and sell re¬cords, but it has no solidity. After all,it’s just a beat, vocals, and synthe¬sizers. The middle range of sounds, between the bass line and the vocals, issorely lacking, as is any noticeableoriginality.The insubstantiality of her lyricsmatches the insubstantiality of hermusic. The words to “Like A Virgin’’and “Material Girl,” the two biggesthits on this album, represent thethemes found throughout the release-money and sex, especially the latter.Not one song fails to mention men.Two unknown songs surprise me.“Over and Over” and “Stay” were re¬petitive yet uninspired. They and thetitle track, however, compose the trioThe Parents’ Support Network(PSN) offers parents in the HydePark/Kenwood area an opportunity toget together and commiserate on tnedifficulties of parenting. PSN alsosponsors activities such as play groupmeetings, lectures, discussions, andparties. In addition, the Network main¬tains a children’s library, loans out carseats, and publishes a monthly calen¬dar.PSN’s primary function is the playgroup meeting, attended by bothparents and children. These meetingsbegin with play-time, which is followedby a snack, more structured play, sing¬ing, and a time for the parents to pettogether. There are play groups especially for working parents, infants,toddlers, and single parents. Each of songs I like, though I wouldn’t bor¬row a tape to hear any of them. Despitethe music’s flash and Madonna’s over¬ly inhibited and pristine videos, after atime this music becomes as exciting aswatching cars rust.Phil Collins’ No Jacket Required (At¬lantic), on the other hand, combinesstyle with substance. He seems equallyadept in all musical styles, not only asa composer but as a musician (hisflawless drumming is as interestingand unusual as ever). From the softplea of “One More Night” to the fast-paces hustle of “Only You Know And IKnow,” from the calm richness of“Long Long Way to Go” to the boister¬ousness of “Sussudio,” his No JacketRequired features both good music andgood lyrics.This release is consistently highquality. Because Collins performs dif¬ferent styles, you may dislike one ortwo songs but still tremendously enjoygroup meets once a week from 9:30 to11:00 am.PSN lectures and discussions ad¬dress common parenting concernssuch as discipline, sibling rivalry, andsafety. The lectures take place onThursday nights, and parents form dis¬cussion groups whenever they want totalk about a specific problem.Parenting, according to PSN publici¬ty director Frances Gathings, can be a“mission impossible.” PSN strives tohelp parents through stressful timesand to make parents realize that manyof their problems are universal.The Network, a non-profit organiza¬tion of 169 members, is based in theHyde Park Union Church. For more in¬formation, contact Frances Gathingsat 538-8165 or 225-7400. the album as a whole. I do not particu¬larly care for “Who Said I Would,”which seems to just stay the same andnot build toward anything, but I thinkthe album is terrific.Collins is both talented and innova¬tive, but I don’t mean to imply he hasno faults, for he does. His voice is nei¬ther extremely expressive nor over¬whelmingly pleasant. His videos sufferfrom a general absence of plot. He hastoo little hair to have his picture on analbum cover. He doesn’t dance verywell. These flaws can be overlooked,though, if the music is good. And it is.It doesn’t matter how good the musicis, however, if you don’t like the kind ofmusic. Judas Priest’s Defenders of theFaith (Columbia) is abrasive yet clas¬sless, but it is still a devastating com¬pendium of heavy metal. Filled with allthe power and energy Priest listenershave learned to expect, Defenders isprobably their best release to date.Priest’s lyrics are the typicallytrashy sort; “Love Bites” and “Eat MeAlive” are two subtle examples. Sur¬prisingly, the words have flashes ofmeaning and wit—albeit brief ones—ifyou have the guts to listen closely. Thegenerally insipid lyrics are balancedby the impressive technical profi¬ciency of K. K. Downing and Glen Tip-ton, perhaps the hardest-hitting pair ofguitarists presently to grace the sameband.Not only does this album feature out¬standing guitarwork, but it also exhib¬its a limited experimentation with dif¬ferent sounds, which is particularlyunusual and admirable for a tradition¬al hard rock band. “The Sentinel” and“When the Night Comes Down,” mytwo favorite tracks, combine someoriginal, sometimes even pleasant pas¬sages (and keyboards!) with welldone, standard British metal. All in all,this release is very good for what it is,but listening to it requires either adeathwish or a wasted mental state. Phil CollinsContrasting with the dreary Defend¬ers, Bryan Adams’ Reckless (A&M) ismuch lighter and more upbeat. Hisstraightforward rock-n-roll is consis¬tently very good, although his lyricsare like a beer commercial: “Let’shave fun. Let’s party. Let’s have abeer.” The mundane lyrics contributeto my impression that all the trackshave a certain amount of sameness,but I still enjoy the album.My favorite cut, “Kids WannaRock,” and several others from Reck¬less have already been hits, and two,“Heaven” and “Somebody,” are cur¬rently climbing the charts. I really likeall the songs, except for the last trackson side two,” Long Gone” and “Ain’tGonna Cry,” which are merely“good.”Bryan Adams does nothing spar-klingly original and his guitar solosnearly induce rigor mortis, but hismusic is lively and fun. It’s not some¬thing you have to think hard about, butthat’s just fine for casual listening andserious dancing. Actually, though, thealbum is more than “just fine.” It’ssolid rock-n-roll and I recommend ithighly.Parents support profiledBy Kathy EvansAre youIf finals and the approach of su ri¬mer have made you start tosweat—Christ Hospital Scrubswould be a great addition to yoursummer wardrobe.Made of a cotton polyester blend,they re comfortable and easy tocare for.

The column concernsmostly the Kansas City Royals, who happen to be intown this weekend, but who also won the divisionaltitle last year, and if you read carefully betw een thelines you get an inkling that Farber knew they weregoing to do it all along.As you read, Mr. Farber is completing his degreerequirements while he makes arrangements for hislast flight ever from Chicago. So read this piececarefully, because you will never read Farber againin this space. And as we say in the profession, thisspace will be much lonelier without him. The sportsstaff at the Maroon wishes Craig all the best, and ifyou’re ever in Yonkers, stop by the track and sayhello to Craig, he’ll be happy to laugh in your face.This year the Orioles got off to a poor start andfound themselves 10 games out of first place in theAL East, while the Chicago White Sox also had apoor April but were only a few games out in theWest.Teams in the West have enjoyed this advantage forthe past few years, but does this lead the teams to amore casual attitude toward early seasons losses? ■■■■iThe Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 31, 1985Not according to KC Royals manager Dick Howser.“Sure the East has more good teams, and with De¬troit’s start teams are behind,” said Howser, “ butthe ones in April mean as much as the ones in Sep¬tember; you try to win them all.”Howser did admit that the way he goes about win¬ning in the first few months might be different thenplay during a pennant stretch. “True, you try to restsome people and give everyone a chance to play anddo some experimenting,” Howser said, “and a teamlike the White Sox, who won it last year—all theyhave to do is wait until their pitching comesaround.”. ..Howser certainly has done some experimentingthis year. Only 10 players from the 1983 Opening Dayroster are presently on the squad. Howser was theman behind th-Q turnover. “Yeah, I was responsible,nobody has more input than the manager,” saidHowser. “Hell, this club has been the same since1976 and you have to start to bring in some youngplayers at this point.”Those young players have been pitchers Bret Sa-berhagen, Danny Jackson, and Mark Gubicza. Sa-berhagen and Gubicza both played in AA last year.All three have been pitching well and though Howser“can’t predict how they’ll do, they do have potentialto be major leaguers.” He added, “I didn't think allthree will make it, but if they do the staff will be goodfor a long period of time.”. . .Willie Wilson returned to major league baseballafter Bowie Kuhn symbolically reinstated him alongwith Merry Martin and Willie Aikens. I wonder howlong it would have taken Richard I. Bloch, the arbi¬trator who really reinstated the three, to burst intoKuhn’s office had Kuhn denied the requests for rein¬station...Speaking of DH's, the AL premier batter HalMcRae has no intention of retiring as he approacheshis 38th birthday. “I’ll play as long as they keepthrowing low fastballs,” McRae said. . .Not much has been said about the Toronto BlueJays, so I’ll say something about them. They havegotten off to a good start but unfortunately they arebehind the Detroit Tigers. Dave Stieb has lookedsharp this spring posting a 5-1 record, and the firstbaseman W’illie Upshaw has hit eight HR’s and isbatting .342.Reggie Jackson found that old stroke of his and fin¬ished some business he left unsettled during the 1971All-Star game. In that game Jackson blasted a mam¬moth shot off the light towers in right centerfield offDock Ellis. Last Saturday Jackson took a JuanBerenguer pitch out of Tiger Stadium over the rightfield roof.
