Crime rate dropsBy Ken HolstonContributing WriterCrimes reported in the HydePark-Kenwood area declined by7.7% in 1985 from 1984, accordingto Robert Mason, the .South EastChicago Commission Law En¬forcement Coordinator.Six out of seven categories ofcrime witnessed a decline from1984. Purse snatchings were re¬duced by 28.5 percent, while bur¬glaries declined 16.5 percent.Robberies decreased 12 percent,aggravated sexual assaults. 5percent. Auto thefts declined 2percent while thefts from autosdeclined 0.3 percent. Homicidesdid not record a decline, remain¬ing at five.According to Mason, these fig¬ures represent initial reports tothe Chicago Police Departmentthat may later be reclassified ordetermined unfounded by areadetectives.Mason attributes this decline incrime to good police work by theChicago Police Department andthe University Security Depart¬ment, as well as to the concernedcitizens of the Hyde Park-Ken¬wood area. “Nosy neighbors”who report suspicious activitiesand local residents who prosecutegive Hyde Park-Kenwood a badname among criminals. Masonsaid.Despite this overall reductionir crime in 1985, a rash of autothefts occurred late in the year and has continued into 1986. Uni¬versity Security Officers recentlymade several arrests of autothieves. Also, basement storagerooms have recently been hithard by burglars, who force inrear doors and ransack storagelockers.The decline in crimes is not yeta trend, Mason said. For a posi¬tive trend to develop, local resi¬dents must continue to report sus-picious activities and toprosecute criminals. Suspicioussituations should be reported tothe Security Department(IBX123) or the Chicago PoliceDepartment (911).Mason stresses that a personshould make it hard for himself tobe the victim of a crime. His ad¬vice: avoid walking alone in theevening. Stay out of unfamiliarareas as well as parks, alleys, va¬cant lots and poorly lightedareas. Make use of the whiteemergency phones if a suspicioussituation arises. Call the SecurityDepartment for umbrella cover¬age if you feel uneasy or unsafe.Calls can be made from a campusphone, an outside line or a whiteemergency phone. Additionally,a whistle can be blown to warnothers of trouble.More detailed information onsafety precautions is contained in“Common Sense...”, a pamphleton safety available from the Of¬fice of the Dean of Students.Faculty react to UCHC/Michael Reese mergerprospects to improveTeachingBy Michael BreenContributing WriterLarge scale teacher retire¬ments in the near future are ex¬pected to generate a dramatic in¬crease in the demand for newteachers, both at the Universityof Chicago and across thecountry. The peak increase inteacher demand should occur be¬tween five and ten years fromnow.The Greenstone Committee,which studied the size and com¬position of the University of Chi¬cago, issued a report citing theUniversity’s extraordinarily highpercentage of professors who aresenior faculty members. Thecommittee recommended thatthe university aggressively seekto expand its junior faculty byhiring younger new professors in¬stead of trying to lure older, moredistinguished ones here withoffers of tenure.Several depatments within theuniversity have indicated thattheir need for new professors willincrease over the next fewyears.In the English department, sixprofessors are expected to retirewithin the next seven years, anunusually high number of retire¬ments according to JanelMueller, the Chairman of the En¬glish Department.“For the next seven years,we’re going to be in the midst of arash of retirements,” Muellersaid, “If our department’s levelsstay the same, we’re going to have to replenish these posi¬tions.” She added that, “Therewill probably be a tendency tohire younger professors.” How¬ever, Mueller noted that the En¬glish Department is one of theyounger departments on campus,and emphasized that she wants tomaintain a balanced age distribu¬tion among the members of herfaculty.The Philosophy Department isalso considering its need for newfaculty members, in the near fu¬ture.In fact, the department madethree new appointments to thestaff this year, a very highnumber of appointments accord¬ing to William Tait, the depart¬ment chairman. He noted thatProfessor Manley H. Thompson,the department’s expert onKant’s Critique of Pure Reason,will be retiring next year.In addition to filling Thomp¬son’s position, Tait said that hewould like to hire a professor whois an expert in Medieval Philoso¬phy (the department has no suchexpert presently) and that thereare, “Various areas in which weare considering making appoint¬ments.” Tait emphasized though,that all future appointments areat presently only under discus¬sion with the administration.The demand for new facultymembers in the next five to tenyears may be the most acute inGeography, however. Geographydepartment chairman MarvinMikesell said that while the de¬ partment only needs to fill fourpositions in the next five years,an average amount of replace¬ments, in the field of Geographyoverall there is “going to be asubstantial turnover in the nextthree to five years, and that situa¬tion will progress for another tenyears.”According to Mikesell, one-third of the geography professorsnationwide will retire within thenext ten years. “In my profes¬sion, we’re going to have a periodof rapid retirements. The staticsituation we’ve had for the lastfifteen years is going to changesoon. In 1970, we reached a satu¬ration point in the field, but now,with average age of geographyprofessors between fifty-five andsixty-five years old, there is real¬ly going to be a turn-over comingup.He added that, “Teaching ca¬reers are going to be a very realoption for grad students. Re¬placement positions will be open¬ing up in Geography departmentsall over.”Nationally, the demand forteachers, especially at the ele¬mentary and secondary schoollevels, is expected to climbsharply over the next five to tenyears. Increases in teacher re¬tirements, coupled with the en¬actment of education reforms inmany states, are seen as themain forces pushing teacher de¬mand up.The National Center for Educa-continued on oage 1ft By Christina VoulgarelisStaff WriterFour medical and biologicalprofessors expressed mixed opin¬ions about the proposal to mergeUniversity of Chicago Hospitalsand Clinics (UCHC) with MichaelReese Hospital. Their viewsabout the proposed mergerranged from healthy skepticismto cautious optimism.One professor said he thinksthe merger does not attack theright problem, and indeed mayadd problems for UCHC. “It wastotally financial,” said Dr. Whit¬ney Addington, professor in theDepartment of Medicine. “Bothinstitutions are financially in tro¬uble. The issue is: are we gettingtoo large? I don’t think the merg¬er will improve our situation. Ourprime need is to improve our re¬ferral base, and we’ll inherit anenormous plant to operate(Reese).”One concern expressed by aprofessor is that some medicalprograms or services may haveto be cut. Dr. Samuel Refetoff,professor in the Department ofMedicine, said he anticipates ashift in emphasis to cost-effi¬ciency in health care, which hesaid is not good for the medicalprofession and its teaching of in¬terns and residents.“I think it will be more difficultto keep the medical standards.We will have to practice in a cost-efficient manner. Do we want toteach our medical students cost-efficient medicine or...(the latestadvances in medical care)?”,Refetoff added.Last year UCHC recorded a$15.6 million deficit. So ohviouslv “the fat will be the first to go.said Dr. William Matuzas. asso¬ciate professor in the PsychiatryDepartment. “Whether anythingelse goes remains to be seen.There are real challenges con¬fronting the hospitals, but I’m op¬timistic that everyone here willwork very hard to make thingswork.”“Money is part of it, obvious¬ly,” said Martin Feder, assistantprofessor in the Department ofAnatomy, “but it is best to viewthis as part of establishing viabi¬lity and visibility too. It seems tobe a continuation of a long-termtrend to enhance both scientificand financial visibility.” Accord¬ing to Feder, bringing in MichaelReese would present a “bulky ad¬ministrative problem with thelarge number of additional Reesefaculty. “Realistically, it’s toolarge a unit, “he said.continued on page 16Whitney AddingtonCkmbte Sou))Coktornj S■alwidag Might 10 P.WL to HtiduigldTkto Week:JOANNA BRYSONAn Evening of Folk Rock GuitarHtl Mu - 25' ?otbm - 50'At HUM Hem 5715 S.

It will primarily bea calendar of events containing dates andtimes of upcoming lectures, parties, CSAevents, and other events of general interestto students.The first issue is scheduled to appear dur¬ing the week of February 24.According to Arthur Ellis, one of the threeCSA members who will edit “The Bored”,the CSA is not yet certain what other infor¬mation the sheet will contain and what for¬mat it will take. Ellis says that the editorswill independently edit one issue per week,so that the style of the sheet may vary fromday to day. The editors are considering hav¬ing a personals—“lonely-hearts”—section. One of the editors may print a gossip col¬umn.Ellis stressed the fact that “The Bored”will provide students with “up to date infor¬mation.” “The Bored” can print informa¬tion that is turned in only 1 '/•> to 2 days in ad¬vance.The College Administration has donatedthe use of two word processors to the CSAfor the printing of “The Bored.” The CSA isoperating on a budget of $200 per quarter forthe information sheet although thigjquarter’s budget is somewhat larger due tostart-up costs. The budget covers primarilythe cost of paper and xeroxing. Ellis saysthat the CSA hopes in the future to possiblysell advertising space in “The Bored” inorder to “keep costs down” as much as pos¬sible.The idea of printing an information sheetfor students came originally from Sonia Ja¬cobson, assistant dean of students and CSAadvisor.James Peterson says sexist attitudes oppress men tooBy Greg MantellContributing WriterDespite a protest by 18 women’s unionmembers, some 400 students came to hearPlayboy columnist James Peterson speakon “Love and Sex” at Mandel Hall on Feb¬ruary 8.Peterson’s appearance sparked a contro¬versy because of what some feel is Playboymagazine’s sexist stance and his lack of cre¬dentials (he holds a BA in English but nonein sex psychology).“I think it’s pretty outrageous that heshould come as an invited guest,” said Dr.Jennie Traschen, one of the protestors andan associate at the Enrico Fermi Institute.“I do think it’s a misuse of student funds togive a speaker from Playboy a $1500 hon¬orarium. One of the rules that the financecommittee invoked was that Chomsky (theNIT linguist who spoke in the arms raceFeb. 5) couldn’t be funded because he wouldpresent an opinion, a point of view. It’s anexample of selected enforcement. It’s im¬portant for people to know this is happen¬ing.”Others disagreed:“I think he should be able to speak. Whyshould we not allow him to speak?,” saidone first-year student. “Would people be upset if Dr. Ruth wereinvited?” another student asked.Peterson denied that either he or Play¬boy is sexist. “Pleasure is pleasure (formen or women). Nothing, in my mind, thatI’ve said tonight is sexist. Playboy holdsconversations like the one you would havewith a younger brother.”He added that the Playboy foundation“opposes violence against women” and hasdonated “lots of money” to the ERA move¬ment and other feminist causes. He main¬tained that the donations aren’t “bloodmoney,” as some feminists allege.Many of the sexist attitudes that have op¬pressed women have also oppressed men,he said. “You should have the right tochoose the lifestyle you want. It should bepermissible to be a bachelor and not haveeverybody think you’re a queer.”Because of his belief that everyone shouldbe able to live the life they want, he favorslegalized prostitution. “By legalizing it youget rid of the men who shouldn’t be involvedin a woman’s personal decision—the pimp,the police, and the judge.”Playboy’s circulation decline is not the re¬sult of diminished interest in sex maga¬zines, as feminists often claim, he said.Rather, it is the result of increased competi¬ tion that has plagued all magazines in re¬cent years as VCR’s and other forms of en¬tertainment grab an increasingly largeshare of the public’s entertainment dollar.Stressing the importance of using contra¬ceptives, he asserted that there are twokinds of sexually active college students:the 50% who use birth control, and the otherhalf who rely on prayer (“They’re calledparents”)Bike aid lectureThe Overseas Development Network(ODN) will sponsor a cross-country bicycletrip this summer known as Bike-aid ’86. inorder to further student awareness of worldpoverty and raise money for national andoverseas self-help projects. Shaun Skelton,national co-ordinator for Bike-aid ’86, hopesto raise one million dollars for self-helpprojects in Africa. Asia, Latin America, andAppalachia. Participants of the cross¬country trip can ride the entire length of thecountry (3300 miles) or a smaller portion ofthe journey. On Saturday, February 22nd at4:30 pm, Skelton will be at the WoodwardCourt Masters' apartment to inform U of Cstudents of the project and encourage stu¬dents to form an ODN chapter on campus. The audience booed one woman whoasked Peterson what he thought about “theimmoral behavior of homosexuals who hadspread AIDS to innocents by donatingblood.” Peterson responded that “If God de¬cided to punish homosexuals by causingAIDS, maybe now he’s decided to punish in¬nocents. too.”Petersoiy offered a tip to sexually activestudents: “Sex should be like ethnic food—enjoy the flavor, but don’t ask what’s init.”Peterson, who had heard - before thespeech that<the U fo C “is one of the mostfrustrated campuses in the country’.” saidthat the audience’s questions were more“politically loaded” than at other schoolswhere he had lectured, but on the whole theUniversity was about as “weird as everyother campus I’ve spoken on.”In memoriamA memorial will be held February 22 at 3pm in Rockefeller Chapel for Barry DeanWilliams.

LETTERSDiscrimination is "ugly"To the Editor :In his February 18 column, Ken Arm¬strong asserts that the Ku Klux Klan, “dan¬gerously fashionable” feminists, and arabbi .who he claims represents “the es¬sence of...warped thinking” all have a greatdeal in common. According to Armstrong,they all demonstrate “the apparent need ofsome people to feel discriminated against.”What is most disturbing about Armstrong’sargument is that he seems to equate thethree examples. He fails to see that he islumping the victims of discrimination withthe perpetrators. In asserting this discrimi¬nation is self-inflicted, he fails to see thewounds which he creates.By saying that the KKK “had discoveredthe defensive powers inherent in chargingdiscrimination,” Armstrong adds credenceto the KKK’s use of such an approach andconsequently legitimizes the organization’stactial and exploitative use of the term.What is the KKK “defending” by attackingBlack History Month and Dr. Martin LutherKing? To what end does the KKK cry “dis¬crimination?” Does Armstrong contendthat those who demand America is a nationfor white Aryans do justice to the principleswhich Americans rally behind and defend?He choose to bypass these questions, argu¬ing instead that when the KKK cries racism,it is simply an “exaggeration.” The racism,anti-Semitism, bigotry, and vigilante justicewhich Klan members espouse and have his¬torically practiced demostrates that whenthe KKK cries racism, their double-speak isnot intended merely to exaggerate. Klangroups have demonstrated time and againthat they don’t simply preach hate and vio¬lence, but are willing to act upon it as well.To say that Klan activities exaggerate dis¬crimination ignores the group’s obvious ul¬ terior motives.“Discrimination” is an ugly word; “anti-Semite” is a powerful charge. This is as itshould be. It is, therefore, particularly dis¬turbing when Armstrong argues that femin¬ists, who are women, “jealously guard theirkingdom of martyrdom from infiltration.”Although Armstrong probably wouldn’tadmit it, those women don’t aspire to mar¬tyrdom; they seek redress for legitimategreivances. Equal protection under the lawfor women, protection from sexual harass¬ment and discrimination, and forums wherewomen’s concerns can be heard are all aspi¬rations which those who support feminismstand behind.For Armstrong, the KKK and feminists donot approach enough compared to the“warped thinking” of a rabbi. He seems tohold this person (“of all people, a rabbi”) toa different, higher standard than others. Heeven held a special place for him in hisheart; he “despised that man.” Was therabbi justified in his charge of anti-Semi¬tism? If he was, perhaps Armstrongwouldn’t even have recognized it.Those who have been historically wrongedshould be applauded for having muscles andminds “braced for counterattack againstdiscrimination. To compare “discrimina¬tion” claimed by the KKK with that actuallyexperienced by women and Jews is absurd.Neither feminists nor Jews need to feign dis¬crimination or “cry wolf” in a world whereactual obstacles have often been harsh anduncompromising towards them. They do notuse charges of “discrimination” and “anti-Semite” lightly. Their aspirations are basedupon a reasoned commitment to equality foreveryone in their own communities.Joel ZandProtestor objects to attitudesTo the Editor :“See, I told you that all the women protes¬tors would be ugly,” I overheard one youngman say to a male friend as they enteredMandel hall, while I stood in the line of pro¬testors, registering my objection to the Stu¬dent Government’s funding of “entertain¬ment” by Playboy’s James Patterson. Thiscomment typifies the male attitude thatPlayboy espouses, namely that women areto be judged solely on the basis of theirphysical beauty. Playboy is a magazine in¬tended for men, and if its editors felt thatthe women protrayed had any other re¬deeming values attractive to men theywould include those in their magazine.Thus, by guilt of omission, Playboy conveysits criteria by which to judge women. If Student Government sponsored aspeaker from an organization that pub¬lished, for its readers’ entertainment, pho¬tographs of bound South African blacks orNicaraguan Sandanistas, or any other men,there would be a campus wide outrage.However, the speaker from Playboy, whichhas published such photographs of women,was welcomed unopposed by most.Playboy’s editors do not legitimize theirsexist and harmful attitudes by the inclu¬sion of “progressive and liberal” articlesalongside the centerfold.Student Government has not only con¬doned Playboy's attitudes, it has hired theiradvisor to teach the Playboy credo to U of Cstudents. Barry Tichomedical studentSG movies 'waste' moneyTo the Editor:On Friday, February 14, SG’s Student Ac¬tivities Committee sponsored a showing ofAn Officer and a Gentleman that was aprime example of waste by the SG. At a costof over $600, only 110 people saw the film.When these figures are compared, SG couldhave sent everyone downtown to a first-runmovie for the same cost.SG’s timing of the event was a unique ex¬ercise in poor planning. The movie that theyselected had been shown on TV only threedays before. Additionally, on the same eve¬ning Doc Films showed a movie that wasnot only newer but was also heavily adver¬ tised for two weeks before the showing. De¬spite its admission charge, Doc Films hadfive times as many people as the SG moviein attendance. This isn’t very surprising,since at Doc there were seats instead of afloor, a good sound system and a more de¬sirable movie.I respectfully suggest that SG get out ofthe movie business and leave it to the well-organized film groups already in existenceon this campus.

She agrees that “There are lots oflectures and seminars...but nothing social.Most graduate students never have cause orreason to meet other students from other di¬visions.”Tuttle pointed out that “most graduatestudents are working as well as having tokeep up with their studies” and opportuni¬ties for social activities are few and far be¬tween. Most graduate students live outsidethe housing system in apartments, withmany living in the northern portions of theCity as rents there are cheaper. This disper-Faculty reactioncontinued from page one“My overall feeling is it really de¬pends on the leadership and the administra¬tive structure. If the leadership is wise, thenI think that a merger could result in a netimprovement of our situation.”In January the two hospitals announcedthat they had formed a joint committee oftrustees “to evaluate the relationship be¬ tween the two institutions with a viewtoward combining their hospitals and clin¬ics into a world-class, preeminent medicalcenter.” The joint committee will presentits recommendation in two weeks. If it ap¬proves the measure, a committee will beformed to study the logistics of the merg¬er.Poli Sci discusses paper prepBy Molly McClainNews EditorThe Undergraduate Political ScienceCommittee held a reception and discussionat 3:30 pm Wednesday, February 19 in PickLounge. David Greenstone led the discus¬sion. Gary Orfield and Nathan Tarcov dis¬cussed junior and senior paper prepara¬tion.The committee was formed last winter inresponse to complaints about the PoliticalScience Department’s commitment to un¬dergraduates.Greg Bowling, co-chairman of the com¬mittee along with Matthew Klein, said thathe had felt that the Department had “lostinterest in undergraduate affairs.” Bowlingand Klein were asked to co-chair the com¬mittee after the Political Science Depart¬ment received their letter of complaint,which was published simultaneously in theMaroon. “The Department responded fa¬vorably,” Bowling stated.The committee has been “very lively thisyear,” according to Susanne Rudolph, pro¬ fessor in the Department of PoliticalScience and chairman of the undergraduatecommittee. They have succeeded in gettingthe Department to notify students aboutcancelled classes. This was one of Bowlingand Klein’s original complaints.The committee members have “tried toarticulate the feelings among politicalscience undergraduates with respect tocourses and teaching conditions,” Rudolphsaid. This year the committee has focusedon the problem of large and popularcourses.A member of the committee. Terri Ferro,stated that they were looking into ways ofmaking large classes, such as Mear-sheimer’s “War and the Nation State,”more effective. The committee has submit¬ted a series of proposals to the Departmentwhich consider ways in which to “breakdown inevitably large courses into smallerdiscussion sections,” Randolph said.“The Department is more responsive nowto undergraduates than a year ago,” Bowl¬ing noted; the committee “reminds themthat we are there.” sion intensifies the isolation felt by mostgraduate students.The informal Sherry Hours are open to allgraduate students from all divisions and allschools. They will be held at the RobieHouse, 5757 S. Woodlawn. The dates for theSherry Hours are as follows:Friday, 4:00-6:00 pm. Feb. 21, 1986Friday, 4:00-6:00 pm. March 7, 1986Friday, 4:00-6:00 pm. April 18, 1986Friday, 4:00-6:00 pm. May 2, 1986Tuttle said that 1,400 personal invitationswill be sent out for each Sherry Hour. Shestressed that groups of 100-200 students from each of the various divisions or schoolswill be invited. This will provide an eclecticsetting that will encourage students to in¬teract with those students from other divi¬sions of the University that they would nototherwise meet. For instance, Tuttle saidthat some mixtures include students fromthe Biological Sciences and the SocialSciences or students from the BusinessSchool and the Humanities. Tuttle, verypositive about the Sherry Hour program, isconfident that it will “improve the quality oflife” for graduate students.Teaching opportunitiescontinued from page one ———■tion Statistics projects that between 1990and 1993. there will be a demand for approx¬imately 630,000 new teachers nationwide.Right now, the agency predicts that onlyabout 408,000 of these new openings will befilled, leaving a demand for about 222,000teachers. The National Education Associa¬tion, a national teacher’s union, says that bythe end of the decade, there will be a needfor over 1 million people to enter teaching.The signs of this increased need for teach¬ers are already becoming evident. Lastyear, only 85% of the available teachingspots in the country were filled.In Chicago, the demand for teachers hasgrown to a point where, for the first time in18 years, the school system is signing upsubstitute teachers who have not had anyclass management training. Currently, Illi¬nois law requires that all teachers, includ¬ing substitutes, must take fifteen hours ofclasses in classroom management.An enrollment drop of 67% in teacher’scolleges throughout the country between1972 and 1982 has caused an increasingnumber of school districts around thecountry to go onto college campuses to re¬cruit new teachers. Some states, in an effortto lure qualified teachers, have started torun public relations campaigns.In some states, teacher shortages are be¬ginning to affect the most basic of classes.Shortages in elementary school teachers, aswell as high-school English and historyteachers are being reported.While the steep rise in demand for newteachers is being aggravated by such fac¬tors as the decline of a teacher’s pay, rela¬tive to other profession’s and an increase inthe number of school age children, the main cause for this sudden rise in demand, is thegreying of America’s present teachingcorps.Many of today’s teachers were hired inthe late 1960’s to meet growing enrollment.William Dunifon, the Dean of Illinois StateUniversity’s College of Education says that30% of the country’s present teaching forcewill reach the retirement age of 55 years oldbetween 1990 and 1994. The National Centerfor Education Statistics reports that 26.2%of the country’s teachers are now over 45years old (Chicago Tribune, 8/14/85).Approximately 25% of the teachers in Illi¬nois schools are now over 50 years old.Adding to this expected increase in de¬mand for new teachers over the next five toten years, are education reform laws thatare currently being enacted in many states.These packages often require smallerclasses and longer school days, meaningthat school districts must hire more thanjust replacement teachers, they mustcreate new teaching openings.Educators are also worried that stan¬dards of quality may drop as schools try tofind “warm bodies” to fill the classroomswith. Over the past several years, collegestudents training to be teachers have hadlower test scores than those students enter¬ing other professions, implying that thequality of teachers is already declining.Relatively low wages are seen as one ofthe main culprits in keeping the supply ofeducators down. In Chicago, teacher’s sa¬laries range from $16,167 for a beginnerwith a Bachelor’s degree, to $34,362 for ateacher with a Doctorate and fifteen yearsof experience (Chicago Tribune 8/14/85).Graduate toacareerin health care.We an YMI, American Medical International.We are also a 2.5 billion dollar company headquarteredin Beverly Hills, California, with over 40,000 employeesworldwide.Due to the fast growing and highly competitive nature ofthe health care industry, our AMI Group Health Services divi¬sion is seeking Health Care Representatives for our 20 newoffices which we will be opening across the Sun Belt withinthe next year.Our Marketing Representative will be at your campuson February 24 interviewing aggressive, articulate and brightgraduating seniors who are interested in a competitive startingsalary, job security, full benefits plan and a unique opportunityfor advancement.This is an exciting challenge for us.

February 21. 198639BO0BOWO9KO9KOga!OgVOgKOflBOgVC>BVO«K}nBO9*O9By Jon NussbaumCollege News EditorTHUNDER ON THE RIGHT...The Dartmouth Review, a rightwing student newspaper pub¬lished at Dartmouth College,N.H., has found itself at thecenter of a nationwide contro¬versy. A dozen students, ten ofthem staff members of The Re¬view, attacked a mock shanty¬town that had been erected oncampus to protest Dartmouth’srefusal to divest itself from mm-panies that do business in SouthAfrica. The raid, conducted inthe early morning hours of Jan¬uary 21, one day after Dr. MartinLuther King, Jr. Day, led to thesuspension from the college of allof the students involved, four ofthe students being suspended foran unspecified length of time. Allof the four are ranking staffmembers of The Review.The group, which carriedsledgehammers to demolish theshanties, called itself the Dart¬mouth Committee to Beautify theGreen Before Winter Carnival.Review editors, describing the in¬cident to Time magazine, com¬mented that they were “merelypicking trash off the green.”Dartmouth President DavidMcLaughlin further antagonizedthe anti-apartheid protesters byasking the shacks to be removed,even though he said their pre¬sence should be “respected”. Thedefendants plan to appeal theirsuspensions to McLaughlin,threatening to sue the school ifthe convictions are not over¬turned.Roland Reynolds, the editor ofThe Review, who was not in¬volved in the attack, said “thereis freedom of speech here as longas you’re firmly left of center.”Reynolds, interviewed in TheNew York Times, further statedthat “you can’t criticize peoplewho happen to be black, who hap¬pen to be women.” However, TheReview, which was founded in1980, denies the charge that itpossesses a racist or sexist orien¬tation. “We have three women on the staff,” said Deborah Stone,one of the students who was sus¬pended indefinitely, “one nativeAmerican, two Jewish students,and one black. I feel like JamesWatt saying that, but it is the onlything that will placate these peo¬ple.”The Review has no official con¬nection with Dartmouth College,but receives approximately$100,000 a year from Dartmouthalumni. In addition, it has severalprominent patrons, notably Wil¬liam F. Buckley, Jr., and Dart¬mouth professor Jeffrey Hart.The paper’s connections extendin the Reagan Administration,where one of its founders worksas a speechwriter for PresidentReagan and another for Vice-President George Bush. The staffof The Review remain deter¬mined to continue the paper. MissStone said that if her suspensionis not overturned then she wouldspend all of her time “devotingher entire energy to The Dart¬mouth Review, which I don’tthink the administration eventhought about.”COLLEGE LIFE INTHE 1980’S...Lisa Birnbach, the self-proclaimed expert on college lifewho lambasted the U. of C. in TheCollege Book, listed some of herbasic college rules for a group ofWashington State University stu¬dents, reports The Daily Ever¬green. “Number one, never beginwork on a test or a term paper be¬fore the night it is due”, she said,unless “if you are a member of afraternity or sorority, (then) youcan wait until the day after. Afterall, how long does it take to Xeroxsomething?”Her second rule was “never,never, never take a class before10:30. The first thing I do when Iget up in the morning is eatlunch.” She also spoke on drink¬ing, drinking games, throwing upin front of or on your friends, thepros and cons of various majors,and soap operas.She finished by saying “my ad-College NewsStone, vice is to stay in (college) as long 1QC^>Cvice is to stay in (college) as longas possible.

February 21 198fi—9Forest in last gameBy Jon HerskovitzStaff WriterIt was the kind of game that no one want¬ed to lose. For the Maroons it was their finalgame of the season, and they were playingthe much hated Foresters of Lake Forest.For Rob Omiecinski, Tom Lepp, and MikeMedina, it was their final collegiate basket¬ball game, and a victory in the final gamewould have put an end to a four game losingstreak.Despite the noble intentions, Chicagocame up on the short end of the score, drop¬ping the game to a final count of 70-65. Chi¬cago played well, and they showed improve¬ment from the last time they played LakeForest. Dave Witt led all scorers with 26points.Lake Forest won the opening tip, andcome up against Chicago’s zone defense.The Forester’s made the first basket, andimmediately went into a full court press.Lake Forest stayed with the press and aman-to-man defense throughout the game.Chicago came out strong, and went to anearly lead. A couple of Omiecinski jumpers,off the glass, and Witt’s strong inside playput Chicago up 16-13 after nine minutes ofplay.The game started to change its complex¬ion after a Lake Forest time-out midwaythrough the first half. There was a lot of run¬ning with few points being scored, yet theChicago lead fell. Chicago regained the leadwith 5:30 left in the first half when Lepp as¬sisted Witt underneath the basket. The firsthalf ended in the back and forth action thatwas characteristic of the previous play.With : 11 left in the first half, Mike Cliffordsank two from the line to put Chicago back up 33-32. Then the Forester’s stormed downthe court, and made the final basket of thehalf to regain the lead at 34-33.The second half opened with a bit of con¬troversy. Chicago was to be awarded theball to start play because of alternate pos¬sessions. However, Lake Forest startedwith the ball, and went up by three on a 14foot jumper. Despite the questionable call,Chicago came out strong in the second half.Three minutes into play. Chicago regainedthe lead on a play frequently seen this yearwhen Lepp assisted Witt underneath thebasket.Again, the action went back and forth asneither team could take control of the game.Gradually, Lake Forest began to stretch outa lead. It was more of a matter of the Chi¬cago offense getting out of gear than LakeForest dominating play that accounted forthe lead.With a minute left lake Forest had its big¬gest lead of the game at 57-63. Chicago putLake Forest on the line in order to try to re¬capture the lead. Lake Forest was all butperfect on their free throws, and any chancefor a victory was lost.When the game ended after Dave Witt’s26th point of the night, Lake Forest had bea¬ten Chicago for the second time in elevendays. For seniors Omiecinski. Medina, andcaptain Lepp. their Chicago career endedwithout the excitement of last year’s finalewhen Frank Caesar’s break away jam icedthe victory, but instead with a tough loss toLake Forest. All that can be said of nextyear is next year, just wait ‘till nextyear...Women's track takes third in ChampionshipsBy Arzou AhsanStaff WriterConsidering the University of ChicagoWomen’s Track team was up against Divi¬sion I and II competition in the ChicagolandIntercollegiate Championships, theyweren’t what one would call a favorite goinginto that meet. However, thanks to a fewstellar performances, Chicago came awaywith fourth place, missing third by only onepoint. The agony of it is that the one pointdifferential was decided in the first event ofthe evening (the 4x400) in which Chicagolost their one point advantage over Dupageby a fraction of a second. It was a nfght ofclose calls.Shauna Smith and Myra La Venue opened the scoring for Chicago with third and fifthplace finishes respectively in the 55m hurd¬les. Smith ran a 9.3 and LaVenue a 9.6 Smithand LaVenue also ran the 55m dash, bothclocking in at 8.1. Lisa Peterson added an¬other eight points with a strong secondevent performance in the 400m. She ran forsecondplace in 66.2. In the 500m Chicago tookthird, fifth and sixth. Nan Lewickey ran agreat race, clocking in at 1:28.4, Lisa Miottoclocked a 1:30.5 and Karin Kenney a 131:0.Kathy Irschick had two outstanding perfor¬mances in the 800m and the mile. Irschickset a personal record in the mile, cutting 8.4seconds off her time. This was good forsecondplace. She then turned around andtook fifth in the 800m with a time of 2:43.8. With these performances, Chicago wentinto the 4x400 with 33 points, one more thanDupage. The relay team of Lewicky, Miotto,Vinckey, and Peterson ran a 4:27.3 forfourth place and three points. Unfortunate¬ly, Dupage’s team ran a little faster andtook third place and five points. The rest ishistory.In last Thursday’s unscored meet atHCFH, Chicago did equally well. Smith tooksecond place in the 60yd hurdles with a 9.1,third in the 60yd dash with 8.1 and clocked a66.1 in the 400m.Also in the 400m, Peterson took fourthwith a time of 63.4 and Netzin Geraldclocked in at 70.5. In her first meet of theyear, senior Carma Peterson ran a 1:51.3 in10 The Chicago Maroon—Friday, February 21, iy«6 the 600yd for fifth place. Lewicky ran forfifth in the 300 in 42.8 and in the 1500m, Vin-key and Kenny took fourth and fifth withtimes of 5:08.2 and 5:24.4. Vinkey ran an ex¬cellent race, missing a school record byonly two seconds. Irschick went the dis¬tance in the 3000m with another good time of11:40.0.In the field events, Caroline Christian im¬proved her shot put by almost three feet,tossing a 26’6”. In the 4x400, the team of Vin¬key, Gerald, Peterson, and Lewickey camein at 4:29.9.The track team has a meet tonight atHenry Crown Field House (start time of6:00 pm) against UW-Whitewater andWheaton CollegeChicago b-ball falls to LakeKeith Vaux evades an opponent SUSIE BRADY Rob Omiecinski (14) aims high for the hoop.Weekend Maroon SportsWomen’s SwimmingFri.-Sat.

His style isunderstatement and dry sarcasm ratherthan wild exhortations. But he drew acrowd of over 500 to Mandel Hall on Feb¬ruary 6th to hear him say that if the worldis destroyed by nuclear war, it will be theresult of the insanity of capitalism.Chomsky’s talk met disagreement fromthe audience, both from those who thoughthe went too far in criticizing the AmericanWay and from those who thought he didn’tgo far enough.World renowned in his field of linguis¬tics, Chomsky gained his reputation as aradical through his fierce opposition to theU.S. war on Vietnam. Since the victory ofthe Vietnamese in 1975 he has written twoindispensable books, The Washington Con¬nection and Third World Fascism (with Ed¬ward Herman, South End Press, 1979) andThe Fateful Triangle: The United States.Israel and the Palestinians (South EndPress, 1983). Both vividly expose thecrimes of the U.S. around the world. Whatis unique and unrelenting throughoutChomsky’s works is his exposure of thecomplicity of the “Free Press’’ and theloyal academia (the “secular priesthood”),in engineering consent with (or worship of)U.S. policy. This heretical view and tone is,as much as anything, what has broughtChomsky his “most radical" image as wellas “most controversial”— many people love him or hate him for exposing the offi¬cial theology.In his talk at Mandel Hall. “The Rational¬ity of Collective Suicide”, Chomsky put for¬ward three main, interlocking positions: 1)U.S. policy overall is determined by bigbusiness, 2) the nuclear arms race is a sub¬sidy for business, and a shield for militaryintervention and business interestsaround the world, although U.S. interven¬tion in the Third Word may inadvertentlylead to direct superpower confrontationand World War III (the “deadly connec¬tion”), and 3) American Democracy is amyth: elections are contests between elitefactions at best, and popular consent is en¬gineered for business interests.Chomsky’s central point was that big busi¬ness runs the U.S. In describing the public'srole in policy formation, he said that deci¬sions are made by groups able to controlthe state (multi-national corporations, lawfirms and investment banks) and thatthese groups staff the executive, plan stu¬dies, set parameters, define the “nationalinterest,” and control academia. He sub¬stantiated this point through describingthe operations of the nuclear arms raceand of “democracy”, defined to meanmainly the creation of public opinion. Forinstance, he cited a study that showed that95% of social science journals ignore theimpact of corporations on foreign policy.Meanwhile, business school professorstake for granted that business interestscontrol foreign policy; as Chomsky put it,“they are speaking to the rulers of the world, they have no reason to dissem¬ble.”. He quoted John Jay, founding fatherof the republic, who said, “a countryshould be governed by those who own it”,adding that this is, in fact, the case in theU.S."the public has next to zero input”Chomsky’s scathing expose of “democra¬cy” was perhaps the strongest line of ar¬gument, although in the end most reveal¬ing of his limitation and certainly verycontroversial with the audience. He assert¬ed that “the public has next to zero input”in determining policy in the U.S., and gavethree major examples. In 1968, Nixon waselected as a peace candidate who would"end the war in Vietnam”: the U.S. pro¬ceeded to wage savage bombings andwiden the war for another 5 years. Since1981, the public has supported a wholearray of social service programs that havebeen cut ruthlessly by the government.And in 1984, the Nuclear Weapons FreezeCampaign, have developed 75% supportin polls, wasn’t even adopted as a minorissue by the Democrats in the presidentialelection. Chomsky could more carefullydocument the manipulation of elections,the packaging of candidates and even ofmovements. His references, though, to the"one-party” system of “Tories” in theU.S., in other words, a two-headed partyof the wealthy, rings true to many people.And the pervasive influence on publicopinion of the Free Press and secularpriesthood certainly reinforces his point. As Chomsky wrote in a recent article in TheProgressive, “To be admitted to the de¬bate, (critics) must accept without questionthe fundamental doctrine that the State isbenevolent, governed by the loftiest in¬tentions. adopting a defense stance, notan actor in world affairs but only react¬ing—though sometimes unwisely—to thecrimes of others...The more intensely thedebate rages between the hawks anddoves, the more firmly and effectively thedoctrines of the state religion are estab¬lished. It is because of their notable con¬tribution to thought control that the criticsare tolerated, indeed honored—that is,those that play by the rules.” (“TheBounds of Thinkable Thought”, October1985)The contradiction in this view stems fromseeing the state as ultimately too power¬ful to challenge. Chomsky did. just once inhis talk, allude to the fact that about 50%of potential voters don’t vote, becausethey can see just as clearly as he that nchanges little or nothing. But he comesaround to a view that the best these peo¬ple on the bottom of society should hopefor is to take advantage of whateversmall openings exist in the tightly con¬trolled state structure, both through vot¬ing and through bringing pressure on le¬gislators through demonstrating. He didalso refer to the possibility of forming athird party, a labor party, that could"modify” capitalism by democraticallyforcing a redistribution of the wealth.“terminal conflict is almost inevitable”Chomsky failed to advocate a radical ap¬proach to preventing World War III, par¬tially because of his contradictory positionContinued on page 6WORLD WAR III:COLLECTIVE SUICIDEOR PRE-MEDUATED MURDER7HMLiHfcY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 21, 1986—5CHOMSKYCRITIQUEDContinued from page 5on the seriousness of the threat. On onehand, he said “terminal conflict is almostinevitable”, because of technical develop¬ments that are shortening lead time in de¬cision-making (U.S. Pershing II nuclear mis¬siles can hit Soviet targets in 6 minutes, ifthey don’t explode on the launch pad) andbecause of the threat of escalation of su¬perpower intervention, whether in theMiddle East, Central America or else¬where. But he argued that the arms race ismainly an economic subsidy based onshort-term gain, and therefore World WarIII could occur only through miscalculationor accident. Specifically on Star Wars, hebegan by saying it is part of a first-strikeplan, but ended up saying it is just anotherhoax designed to generate profits andsubsidize high-tech development. Even thisdoes not seem to add up. If the threat ofaccident or escalation is so great it shouldlead to far greater urgency than Chomskyprojects. What he sees are incremental,short-term rational decisions made by cap¬italists leading to unplanned mass destruc¬tion: collective suicide. Again, this in itselfshould be no cause for complaceny. But hemisses the “method to the madness” on alarger level, the compulsion of both sidesto risk all by preparing a decapitating nu¬clear first-strike rather than risk losingtheir empire. In fact, the underlying, mo¬tion of economics and war is far more dy¬namic than Chomsky’s analysis indicates.^nomsky accurately described the U.S.empire that emerged from World War II asglobal in scope, relying on military inter¬vention and nuclear threats to secure a"favorable business climate”. What hefails to comprehend, though, is the qualita¬tive character of imperialism as a worldsystem, one which encompasses every na¬tional economy, although still rooted inthem, and one which leads, through con¬stant expansion, to world wars betweenrival blocs of capital to redivide the globefor more favorable continuing expansion.Significantly, Chomsky’s analysis still re¬flects the ’60s. before the Soviet Unionhad fully developed as the major militarywOntender with the U.S. for world domina¬tion. His assertion that the U.S. andU.S.S.R. have a “partnership in globalmanagement” has little relation to the’80s when they are in direct confrontation,clashing in Central America, the MiddleEast, Southern Africa, the Horn of Africa,Indochina, and elsewhere. His view wasore apt in the 60s when the Soviets dis¬couraged armed revolutions against theU.S , although even then the apparent col¬laboration was only a period of relativeeasing of an underlying antagonism.Chomsky’s soft stance on the SovietUnion is directly related to his hope thatsome “progressive” American imperi¬alists can be appealed to or pressured intomoderate U.S. policy. All the evidence in»he world of cold-blooded planning, esca¬lating confrontation and the threat of wor¬ld war is somehow interpreted by Chom¬sky as a mutual con game by the U.S. andU.S.S.R. He is not facing up to the realgravity of the situation, because it is toohorrifying, and at the same time too chal¬lenging in its implications for action. Heputs no stock in arms control, not becausepreparations for war are real and negoti¬ations and summits just play the necessaryrole of “peace wars” to solidify popularsupport for each goverment’s war plans,but because, he says, producing the weap¬ons is too profitable for U.S. corporations.But he does promote pressuring the gov¬ernment against military intervention,through mass action as well as lobbyingand support from liberal representatives,as the way both to stop intervention andprevent escalation to nuclear war. In fact,this will not be sufficient to stop eitherone. The stakes are higher than Chomsky Three sisters in the Warsaw ghetto, 1938.recognizes, both for the “Free World” thathe has so much righteous contempt for, andfor the possibility and necessity of bring¬ing about a world truly free from oppres¬sion. And so is the urgency of action.“Strip away illusions!”Chomsky didn’t push working throughNUMBER ONE IN A SERIESALTERNATIVEBRUNCHSTYLESSEE THE AMAZING PINKLEATHER COUCH SUNDAY NOON5336 GREENWOOD IB the electoral system very energetically.He stressed it mainly in responding toquestions, although the basic position wascontained in the body of his talk. Chomskydoesn’t seem too excited by this perspec¬tive. He shouldn’t be. He knows too muchabout what is wrong in the world. What itamounts to is, Chomsky diagnoses cancerand prescribes using every bandaid avail¬able. He ruthlessly exposes the sham of"democracy” yet calls for using everysmall crack and illusion to work within thesystem, up to and including a third elec¬toral party. He says the nuclear arms raceis rational for capitalism, but that WorldWar III could only occur through an irratio¬nal accident. He accurately critiques theNuclear Freeze as politically ineffectual,but, for instance, only signed the “Call toAct” for No Business As Usual Day lastApril “with hesitations”, saying more edu¬cation is needed before radical actions inorder not to alienate anyone. Chomsky ofall people should know that given the con¬trolled media, independent mass actionthat disrupts business as usual and breakswith the status quo is one of the most im¬portant ways to break through and popu¬larize radical political views! In short, hesays in his closing remarks “Strip away il¬lusion!” but not having stripped away allof his own, ends up promoting them.Chomsky certainly isn’t doomed to remainfixed in his current views forever. Theproblem is, people may think that this’isthe most radical option available. Is it? The No Business As Usual Action Ne¬twork is one indication of a small butgrowing movement that has broken withthese limitations. Its slogan is,“They won’t listen to reason,They won’t be bound by votes,The governments must be stopped fromlaunching World War IIINo matter what it takes!Developing from a national day of actionon April 29th, 1985, the NBAU Action Ne¬twork continues, and is organizing anothernational action with a focus against StarWars this April. NBAU activsts across thecountry have brought a “no business asusual” approach to campus organizingagainst South African apartheid at Cor¬nell, Berkeley and elsewere, to the “ShutDown the Arsenal” action in Rock Islandlast October, and other initiatives. Thisspirit, an outlaw spirit, needs to take rootin all the social movements, based not onappealing to the governments for changebut on stopping them, and on an under¬standing of what time it is in the world,when world war looms near and trans¬forms the stakes of every other struggle.Noam Chomsky goes only part of theway toward a vision of what needs to bedone. His radical democratic view points tothe system itself as the source of war, butfails to break with the political frameworkof that system to oppose it. We have tobreak out, no matter what it takes!6—GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1986MINOR MASTERPIECEWoody Alton as himself.WHO IS THIS HLM ABOUT?by Bob TravisAs the seasons go, so goes Woody Allen’s new film, Hannah and Her Sisters.It cuts across the lives of Hannah (Mia Farrow) and her sisters, Holly (DianneWest) and Lee (Barbara Hershey). It shows them trying hard to remain in love,get out of love, or fall in love. In the end each is happy to be married.As one might not expect, given its advance publicity, Hannah and Her Sistersis a flawed work of art. Why is this so? How does its form get in the way of itsexpression? First off, the film is shot in episodic form, lashed together by cutetitles, such as “God, she is beautiful...” Yet in doing this Allen neglects to wedthe various fragments into a cohesive whole. Some episodes, in fact, stick outlike sore thumbs. For instance, the flashback to Mickey’s (Allen) fumbling overhis sterility is purely gratuitous and subtracts from the story’s development.Moreover, the episodic structure of the film manages to touch upon eachcharacter, but does not dwell long enough to allow the viewer to participate inthe lives of each character. In one scene we see Lee stroking the hair of her newlove, as Hannah’s husband Elliot (Michael Caine) sighs over his losing her. Butthat stroke is a shallow indication that a rift has come between the two erst¬while lovers.But perhaps it is more important to ask who this film is about? Hannah andher sisters or Woody Allen? Indeed half of the film is given to Allen’s preoccu¬pation with himself. We witness Mickey’s failure as a husband, his frustrationsas a TV writer, his journeys to various doctors and Mount Sinai hospital, hisattempted suicide, and his courting of Holly. Throughout all this the strands ofthe film’s intentions are left to flutter in the imagination of the viewer. Con¬sequently, Allen’s stylization fails to substantiate Hannah and her sisters aslead characters. Instead, everyone (including Allen) acts as if they had justread the script, which is, moreover, far too stilted to evoke the stream of con¬sciousness effect the screenwriter (Allen) intended.For those who like Allen’s sense of humor, there are some comic gems in thisfilm. Driving back in a cab, Holly steps on her punctilio when she relates to Leeabout Alice, a rival: “Naturally, she went to Brandeis, but I don’t believe sheknows what she’s talking about.” Then in a punk rock club Mickey confesses toHolly: “I’m frightened that after they sing, they’re gonna take hostages.”In sum, this film conveys a sense of struggle against the meaninglessness oflife. While watching the Marx Brothers in Duck Soup in a theatre, Mickeyarises from his depression and remarks: “What if there is no God and you onlygo around once. Don’t you want to be part of the experience?” In Hannah andHer Sisters, though, Woody Allen remains his quintessential self—a filmmakerwho undercuts the small revelations of life only to flirt with the big picture. by K. MosserWoody Allen has just released a new movie. This is, of course, good news, forno matter what else we think of his work, we can always be confident that itwill be well-crafted and polished.Hannah and Her Sisters is, indeed, well-crafted and polished. The acting, asis usually the case in Allen’s (why is it that all other directors are referred toby their last name, except “Woody”?) films, is first-rate. It is certainly a di¬verse cast—Mia Farrow, Dianne Wiest, and Barbara Hershey play the titleroles, and are joined by Lloyd Nolan (last seen doing a desparate denture-adhesive commercial) and Maureen O’Sullivan, as their parents. Ms. O’Sulli¬van plays it to the hilt—an alcoholic, blowzy, uninhibited type; she’s best re¬membered either as Tarzan’s mate, Mia Farrow’s mother, or the “loveinterest” in A Day at the Races (this last putting her in another interestingassemblage, including Thelma Todd and Kitty Carlisle). Even among the fineensemble acting, her performance stands apart. The only presence that jars is,as usual, Allen’s, who functions as a structuring device and provides some lowcomedy. He never appears to be a part of the rest of the group.On other counts, the craftsmanship cannot be faulted. For instance, Alien hasclearly taken a great deal of time with the music, and his score plays an activerole by maintaining the film’s pace. The editing, cinematography, and direc¬tion are also uniformly accomplished.The film itself moves along quite nicely, with entertaining bits such as thejuxtaposition of a crucifix and a loaf of Wonder Bread, representing the es¬sence of conversion from Judaism to Catholicism. Individual lines of dialogueremain with one, as when the father of the Allen character (Mickey) laments,“How do I know why there were Nazis? I don’t even know how the can-openerworks.” However, some of the Nazi references are beginning to wear thin,losing their punch through over-use, and Allen even steals one of his own jokes(about masturbation) from Annie Hall. Finally, invoking the theme of “redemp¬tion through comedy,” he concludes a clip from Duck Soup, inviting the danger¬ous comparison with both the Marx Brothers (comedy) as well as Sullivan'sTravels (redemption).But why, in general, do Allen’s films (except possibly Annie Hall) leave onedissatisfied? Perhaps it is because Allen is perceived as an original, provoca¬tive filmmmaker, but keeps turning out “little” films. It seems we expect“great” and “important” films, but instead we get perfectly constructed littlegems, entertaining but unenlightening. At the Art Institute, we may stop forawhile to consider the beautiful, intricate glass paperweights on the firstfloor, but always with the realization that we’re headed for Renoir. Is it toomuch to hope that from Allen we might get Renoir, rather than paper¬weights?The critical response to Allen has rather extreme boundaries. At one limit,there is Vincent Canby of The New York Times, who claims Allen as “America’sone true auteur.” The other limit is represented by Dave Kehr, whose reviewsin the Chicago Reader seem to resent any moments of grace and enjoymentAllen’s films offer. Surely both are wrong. Canby, by implication, dismisses theimportant, substantial work by (among others) Scorcese and Cassavetes,whose claims for auteur status are easily that of, if not greater than, Allen’s.Kehr’s reactions are predictable and almost knee-jerk by this time; his dogma¬tism keeps him from appreciating those very real elements of quality filmmak¬ing one finds in Allen’s work.Somehow, a middle ground must be sought—appreciating how good Allen’smovies are, without granting him a status he does not yet deserve. The issueremains, even after Hannah and Her Sisters, whether Allen’s career will ul¬timately fit the evaluation Somerset Maugham gave of his own—a first-ratesecond-rate author. Hannah is an enjoyable, entertaining, but not a memora¬ble film. The question persists: have we set our expectations too high, thatAllen will deliver what we might call “lasting art,” rather than the merelyminor masterpieces, of limited endurance, he has so far given us?FIRST RATE SECOND RATEMia Farrow, Barbara Hershey, and Dianna Wiest aa the three Bisters.UREY OilY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1986—7MUSIC SPEAKS OF CULTURE“Y si alguno de ustedes, padresnuestros,tiene una risa para ser reidao una lagrima que deba ser llora-da,que se acerque al final de la jorna-daa nosotros, actores,cantores,llorones,reidores,cazadores de estrellas.Su historia contaremosalia, en lejanas plazas,bajo el sol o la luna,para ninguno o muchos.Lo importante es contarla,y su pequena historia acribilladasera otra Historia para ser Conta-da.”Osvaldo Dragun‘‘Historias para ser contadas” by Tom LaBelleThe words are simple, yet elegant. Theyare an invitation to ordinary people toshare their story with a group of travel¬ling street-actors so that it might be per¬petuated as a shared experience. “We willtell your story/there, in farawayplazas,/under the sun or the moon,/fornone or many./What matters is to tell it.’’ft was much the same feeling which ledEsther Mejias to her career in music. Themessage she sends through her music is nota sad one of an oppressed people, as in“Historias para ser contadas”, but it con¬tains the same underlying desire to shareexperiences. Ms. Mejias feels that, be¬cause of her music, she can serve as an am¬ bassador, communicating to others the cul¬ture of Latin America. “Since I sing a lot inSpanish, you know, not everybody isgoing to understand the words, but themelodies everybody can understand.”Through the mood created by the music sheperforms, Esther is able to unite the lyricsof songs which she performs in several lan¬guages into a universal way of expressingthoughts and feelings.Esther Mejias was born in Puerto Ricointo a very musical family. Her uncle was acomposer and, as a child, she was sur¬rounded by music, since her brothers alsoplayed musical instruments. In this envi¬ronment, she was able to develop herskills on the guitar, piano, percussion andvoice from an early age. After coming to the United States, she was discovered byMichael Miles of the Old Town School ofFolk Music, who thought she would be atremendous bonus to the Hispanic Festivalwhich was then in the developing stages.Since November, then, Ms. Mejias hasbeen working for the Old Town School ofFolk Music teaching tfro courses in Hispanicguitar and also a sight reading course. Inaddition, she has a full-time job with theboard of education as a first-grade teach¬er.Not only does Esther perform traditionalmelodies of Latin American countries,especially the Caribbean Coast countries,but she also writes and performs music ofher own creation. She performs regularlyat clubs and community activities through¬out the Chicago area. This Friday, the 21stof February, she will be appearing at thePuerto Rican Coffee House sponsored bythe International House; definitely some¬thing not to miss.Utopia m /your eyes are inhabited by a faraway fakethe take is inhabited by a shattered mirrorwithin the mirror gunfire burstsdawn storms out of your arms tike an immpatterns of ebony form across your templearranging themselves within a sealed harborthe concentric circles of your insights .are doubly rooted in anger and painour hands interlock with our fatewe know the world we live inwe know the world we wantwe take our place in the struggledawn storms out of our arms The Author’s HandThe author’s hand is the social body;it speaks a language not all its own.The lines assembling on the darkening pagetake their parts from the factory linethat operates.Steve Bestday and nightawake and asleepconscious and unconsciousnever shutting downA question for the writer:who manages the factory?A question for the readerwho owns the machines?A question for us all:where are the flows of money and desire?Locate the sourcesLocate the sourcesSteve Bestby Mark TomaStunning . . . awe-inspiring . . . couldn’ttake my eyes off of what was happening.The play?No, Barry Endick in drag. But the playwas pretty good too. Endick’s and NedHale’s bubble-breasted, big-butted, dim-witted portrayals of Madames Carpenterand Whitehead are two of the highlights inthe Other Theatre Group’s production ofthe Marx Brothers’ musical, AnimalCrackers.First, technical stuff: Plot? Somethingabout art, Africa, and rich fat women. Set?It held together, I’ll say that much for it.Directorial interpretation? Stuart Fetter’simaginative and insightful effort (and Imean effort; juggling a cast of 26, lights,movement, music, and set into a producti¬on that succeeds, in four weeks, with uni¬versity schedules — that is effort) gets tothe core of what the Marx Brothers haveto say, without delay. Which is, of course,nothing. And they say it so well! And it’sexactly what needs to be said around IS IT FUNNYhere.Feffer succeeds in achieving a rollicking,madcap-from-all-directions effect thatbreaks down the wall between cast a idaudience and fills the theatre with a f>jn-house spirit. Feffer’s cast obviously enjoysthemselves, the signing is uniformly good,and Alice Kaufmann lively’s backs'agepiano makes sure the show never drags.One of the few weak points is the choreo¬graphy. At times it can’t decide whether itwants to be sharp or make fun of itself.The actors (with the exceptions of JuanLuco and John Lodder) seem a bit innibitedin their choreographed movements, thusmaking some of the dance sequences seemhalf-hearted and uninspired, and drainingsome of the show’s energy. But this is not aconstant or glaring defect anc overallthere is nothing aggressively bad in thisproduction.On the aggressively good side are the OR ISNT IT?performances. The play was first put on in1928 starring the Marx Brothers, and theroles of Groucho, Zeppo, Chico, and Harpoare recognizable — but the actors playingthese roles do not impersonate. Theycreate their own characters. Mark Au¬drain, in the hit or miss role of CaptainSpaulding, hits more often than he misses.Barry Endick as Jamison, though lackingthe ipagnetic sexuality he brings to hisother role as Grace Carpenter, competent¬ly sets up Captain Spaulding’s one-liners.John Lodder, in the most difficult role ofthe professor (he has no words), mimes hismessages across successfully.The play reaches its high points whenJuan Luco (in the role of Emmanuel Ravelli)is on stage. Commanding, engaging, unin¬hibited, energetic (Damn! I used up all myfavorite theatre adjectives in the lastparagraph), excellent comic instinct ... .you name it. From grabbing women for a dance to reprimanding his cohort in crimeto unabashedly hamming it up on hisfrench horn, this is a non-stop laughterperformance. Really really funny. Evenbetter. Worthy of three realty’s, perhapseven three really’s and a very.And so much for in-depth critical inter¬pretation. This is not a play that lends it¬self to being crit.qued, analyzed, or eventhought about with too much effort. Imean, it’s the Marx Brothers! Only onequestion need be asked, namely, “It itfunny or isn’t it?”It is. The cast has fun, the audience hasfun, and even some extremely serious pil¬lars of the university community wereseen to be having fun. The show has whatis best about student theatre — peopledoing something unpretentiously for noother reason than that they want to do it.
