1INSIDE:Softball kicks assPage 13 Coffee Shops to beImprovedPage 10The Chicago MaroonVolume 97, No. 41 The University of Chicago ©Copyright 1986 Friday, April 11,1986Mayor says patronage, Machine on declineBy Sam MillerStaff WriterMayor Harold Washington vi¬sited the U of C campus Tuesdayto speak out against the demo¬cratic machine that once domi¬nated Chicago politics.Invited by Student Govern¬ment to open their symposiumon Chicago politics, MayorWashington defined the Chicagopolitical machine and assessedits past and future impact on thecity. After his speech he fieldedquestions from the audience ofmore than 250 in Mandel Hall.The Mayor defined the politi¬cal machine as a “monolithicsystem” that reaches from CityHall to the courthouses and be¬yond. At the top of this system isthe mayor, who directs the restof the apparatus. He does this,insisted Washington, by “gainingcontrol of the electoral process.”Patronage allows the head of amachine to select officialsthroughout city government,thus controlling the voters ineach district.According to Mayor Wash¬ington, the power of patronage inChicago was manifested in theDemocratic central committeeof the past. Through this bodythe Chicago machine ruled forover 50 years.In assessing the past successof that machine, the Mayorstated clearly that “it neverworked.” The machine wassuccessful in maintaining its po¬litical exclusivity, which largely excluded Blacks and Hispanicsfrom government. But, hestressed, it did nothing for thecity of Chicago.Washington compared themachine to the Soviet govern¬ment, calling them both “elitistoperations of inside dopesters”whose primary concerns werepatronage and political favors.He concluded that the machine“had no concern about the cityand its future.”With his victory in 1983, manypronounced the machine offi¬cially dead. Mayor Washington,however, said that somebranches of the system remainto be uprooted.The Democratic machinereached its “zenith” underDaley, the former mayor, andhas been in decline ever since,according to Washington. TheMayor enumerated four reasonsfor this decline: an “expansionof the franchise” to Blacks andHispanics; a dwindling of the“fear factor” in Chicago poli¬tics; a commitment to collectivebargaining to end labor dis¬putes; and a control of patron¬age.He called the first and lastdevelopments most important,and promised to continue pro¬viding for minorities whilefighting patronage. As proof ofthis promise, he said that only“two percent of existing em¬ployees” were appointed by hisadministration.In response to a questioner’sassertion of low Hispanic repre¬ sentation, the Mayor cited sev¬eral high-ranking Hispanics ap¬pointed during his administra¬tion. He also called the ques¬tioner’s figures on Hispanicrepresentation simply wrong. Ona similar subject, he promised tolook into possible harassment ofblacks by U of C security men, apoint raised by a member of theOrganization of Black Students.Reacting to the question of hisstance on the press, Washingtonmade it clear that he believesthe media has been “a little un¬fair” towards his administra¬tion. He affirmed his belief in theFirst Amendment, saying thathe would “die fighting for it.” Headded, though, that the press“must be accountable” for itsactions. He described manypresent journalists as “in¬tellectually unqualified”, andwondered if some of them hadever gone to school.A member of the audienceexpressed his concern over thebreakdown of the primary sys¬tem, which itself had helped todestroy the machine. Wash¬ington admitted his concernalso, but said he could take noresponsibility for the demise ofdemocratic leadership. TheMayor said that others, like Al¬derman Ed Vrdolyak, are re¬sponsible. He acknowledged thatsome old problems remain in theparty, but he promised that hisadministration would eventuallyexpunge them from Chicagopolitics.Equipment stolen from laboratories Harold Washington spoke on Chicago politics TuesdayFOTA seeks ideasand funds for FestivalBy Geoff PotterContributing WriterUp to two dozen sophisticateddigital and electronic balances,worth from $400 to $2000 each,have been stolen from Univer¬sity laboratories in the pastyear, according to Security per¬sonnel.Balances are probably used tocut drugs such as marijuana andcocaine, according to RobertMcKenna, Assistant Director ofSpecial Services at UniversitySecurity. “There is an under¬ground drug culture in whichthings are passed around,”McKenna said.No electronic or digital bal¬ances have been discovered bypolice during the past 6 to 8months in area drug busts, ac¬cording to Detective Krczewski,Commanding Officer of SpecialInvestigating Unit of the ChicagoPolice Vice Division. Most bal¬ances found by police are cheaper triple-beam balances,he said. If investigators hadfound balances labelled as Uni¬versity property, the Universitywould have been notified,Krczewski said.Theft from University labor¬atories has occurred steadilyover the past twelve months,according to Security personnel.Equipment such as calculators,microscopes. and balances areamong the most expensivelosses. Petty cash collections,coffee fund money and personalbelongings are stolen most fre¬quently.“I doubt we have an in¬tellectual thief,” said LarryGaddis, Associate Director ofSecurity at the Medical Center.Microscopes and calculatorsstolen from laboratories can beresold, Gaddis said, as can gen¬eral office supplies, but he doesnot believe there is an organizedsystem of theft and fencing in¬ volved.Most thefts at the Universityresult not from people “forcingin to areas,” according toGaddis, but instead from labor¬atory doors and cabinets beingleft unlocked and “people walk¬ing in and seeing the op¬portunity” to steal.Security officials are trying tostop losses and have spoken toworkers about taking pre¬cautions such as locking upequipment in cabinets and lock¬ing laboratory doors when leav¬ing the labs unattended. En¬trances to the Medical Centerare staffed by Security policewhen the entrances are open, butthefts may be conducted by out¬patients and by Medical Centeremployees, Gaddis said. Un¬authorized people in Universitybuildings are discouraged bySecurity, who form files on themand charge them with criminaltrespass after the first offense. By Chelcea M. ParkContributing WriterThe committee for the Festi¬val of the Arts (FOTA), issprouting plans for the 28th an¬nual spring festival to be heldMay 9-18. This year’s theme is“Woman and The Arts.”The annual event combinesperforming and visual arts fromUniversity students and Chicagoartists as well as dance, music,and food. “We hope that we canappeal to everyone and reach allaudiences since this is a festivalfor the whole university,”commented Judith Long, studentcoordinator of FOTA.Some expected activities dur¬ing the week of festivity includea university masquerade dance,an evening of Chicago women’srock bands, concerts on theQuads, and a final banquet. TheEnglish department has offeredto sponsor a poet, singer, orwriter to perform, but theseplans are tentative.Long added, “I have alwaysfelt strongly about the teachingability of art and so I looked fora theme that brings together artand issues that university stu¬dents and faculty don’t seeeveryday.”The cultural organization em¬phasizes that it is not taking aradical feminist stance nor doesit have a political motive. Theiraim is to celebrate something inart pertinent to today’s issues,such as the things women havedone for art, and to make peoplethink about things they usuallydo not consider. Funding for the spring cele¬bration remains a problem Theestimated price tag for the eventranges from $6000-8000. FOTAseeks donations from the city,Student Government (SGl, Col¬lege Student Assembly, (CSA),and other campus organizations.Donations from the city’s agen¬cies and businesses, such as theIllinois Art Council, have beentrickling in slowly. They plan tosubmit budgets to SG. and ifthey cannot receive sufficientfunds, FOTA must find places tocut back or eliminate. "Therealways seems to be more ideasthan money,” stated Long.The biggest problem FOTAencounters is a lack of space.“Every time we get an idea thatwon’t cost much, we realizethere is no space to carry out ourideas in,” Long said The ac¬tivities in previous years wereheld all around campus, utilizingIda Noyes, the Quads.

Theprogram will be aimed at enter¬ing students next year sincemost of those eligible for finan¬cial aid have already received it.The Credit Union is also work¬ing on a Visa program whichwould alluw students to obtain credit cards through the CreditUnion. This program would beparticularly useful to students,especially undergraduates, whofind it difficult to get a creditcard and establish a credit rat¬ing. However, according toJamie Johnson, who is workingon the program, “the Visa pro¬gram is still a far off sort ofthing.”In addition, the Credit Unionhopes to install an automaticteller machine which wouldserve student needs more effici¬ently and cut down on lines atthe Credit Union^Rockefeller Memorial Chapel5850 S.

BlockContributing WriterThe U of C Administration is consideringpossible ways to restructure the quartersystem, which many people feel requirestoo much work per quarter and often doesnot allow enough time to cover coursematerial thoroughly.Two years ago, the Project 1984 TaskForce on Accreditation and Registrationre-evaluated the present curriculum andproposed several changes “to make thethree quarter, ten-week academic calendarmore flexible.” One proposal was to divideeach quarter into five-week units and tooffer five- and fifteen-week courses in ad¬dition to the regular ten-week courses(accreditation being adjusted accordingly).The advantages of the proposal are thatfifteen-week units could cover a greateramount of material at a more relaxed pacethan the present ten-week units, while five-week units could provide students withgreater opportunity to take electives. Theobvious disadvantages are that a lot of newcourses would have to be created and thatregistration every five weeks would bemore complicated.The task force also mentioned briefly thepossibility of “(leaving) the quarter sys¬tem altogether” (presumably to adoptsemesters). “There is substantial senti¬ment among the faculty in the Humanitiesand Social Science Collegiate Divisions thatsuch a change is highly desirable,” thereport stated.According to Dean of the College DonaldLevine, the administration has decided af¬ter some debate that “it was impractical tomove toward a semester system at thispoint.” The proposal to divide up the quar¬ ters in order to make scheduling moreflexible, however, is being reviewed thisyear.English professor Joseph Williams, thechairman of the Task Force on Accredita¬tion and Registration, argues that tenweeks is not enough time for a Humanitiescourse, noting in particular that it restrictsthe time for students to write term papers.He said that the University faculty in gen¬eral is pretty evenly divided over changingto semesters.” An attempt at such a radi¬cal switch would take about five years, headded, requiring two or three years ofdebate, and if accepted, several moreyears of implementation.Although many Humanities and Soc. Sci.professors believe that changing to asemester system might be desirable,Physical Science faculty generally find thescience courses more adaptable to thequarter system. Professor Robert Zimmer,who teaches graduate courses in math¬ematics, said he prefered the quarter to thesemester system for graduate courses be¬cause three ten-week quarters per yearallows for “greater diversity” in thematerial studied than fifteen week semes¬ters. He conceded, however, that the in¬tensity of quarter courses might put morepressure on undergrads. Zimmer was notadverse to adding flexibility to the existingcurriculum but argued that splitting up allthree quarters might create “bureauraticchaos.” He suggested that splitting only thewinter quarter “might not be a bad ideasince it would create a kind of semesteroption for people” while leaving the ac¬ademic calendar essentially intact.Student opinion was diverse in responseto questions about the workload at thisschool. One second-year student, whoProspies visit this weekendPrepare yourself for the annual deluge ofprospective students. Over 400 prospies willvisit the U of C during the weeks of the 10thand 17th of this month to take part in theApril Weekends coordinated by the Ad¬missions Office and the Student SchoolsCommittee (SSC).The prospies will attend both model andregular classes and will stay with studentsin the dorms. SSC and the AdmissionsOffice have planned several activities forthe prospies, including receptions, a asked not to be named, stated flatly, “Toomuch work is assigned per quarter.” Hecited as a major problem the fact that timeis not used as effectively as it could be andthat “there’s a lot of excess busy-work justto fill up time.” But Anton Hast, a first-year physics major, disagreed either thatthere is too much work or that the quartersystem is a problem. “The high-intensity workload is just the nature of the U of C,”he commented. “Under a semester systemstudents here would have to do just asmuch work.”In any event, no one complains about nothaving enough work to do. As Williamspointed out, “Surveys show that U of Cstudents spend more hours working thanstudents at practically any other school.”Politics symposium airs viewsbrunch, a luncheon, a financial aid presen¬tation, College Programs meetings, andtours of the dorms and the campus.Besides giving tours and providing hous¬ing, members of SSC greet the prospieswhen they first arrive and generally try tomake U of C appeal to the creme de lacreme of the prospies. SSC also telephonesU of C applicants during Winter Quarterand publishes The Prospective’s Guide tothe College and The Whole College Cat¬alogue. By Andy ForsaithStaff WriterLocal political experts took part in apanel discussion on Chicago politics spon¬sored by Student Government lastTuesday. The discussion followed a speechby Mayor Harold Washington in MandelHall.The panel included Paul Green, contrib¬uting editor to Illinois Issues magazine anda professor at Governor’s State University,Alderman Wilson Frost of the 34th Ward,Don Rose, a Chicago political consultant,Basil Talbot, political editor of the ChicagoSun-Times, and Alderman Roman Pucinskiof the 41st Ward.Paul Green, the moderator, started offby contending that issues in Chicago poli¬tics have not changed over the last thirtyyears. “I’ve always maintained that thetwo key issues in understanding Chicagopolitics are race and power, and I haveheard nothing in the last 4 years to changethat view.”Green then asked the panel whetherMayor Washington would run for reelec¬tion in 1987 in the Democratic primary oras an independent, and what his chanceswould be. Most of the panelists said it wastoo early to say, but that he would mostlikely win the Democratic primary if hechose to run in it. “He’s a cinch in a three-way race and a probability in a two-way,”said Rose. Talbot reserved final judgmenton the Mayor’s chances until the results ofthe recent FBI investigation into City Hallcorruption were made public. Pucinskisaid, “Mayor Washington is beatable in1987,” and that some of the voting patternsin the recent primary election showed that.The discussion moved to the topic of thedefeat of party-endorsed candidates bysupporters of Lyndon LaRouche in theMarch 18 primary. Pucinski put part of the blame on the fact that some sample ballotsmailed to voters omitted the offices ofLieutenant Governor and Secretary ofState. He also blamed the tendency of themedia for “glamorizing” independentcandidates in general. Frost contendedthat candidates now use the media morethan the party apparatus to get elected,and the media’s neglect of Urelia Puci¬nski’s campaign for Secretary of State ledto her defeat.Green argued that the machine was stillalive in the last election; it managed to getseveral obscure candidates elected tojudgeships who were not endorsed by theAmerican Bar Association. Therefore, hecontinued, the party members did not dotheir job to get the party’s candidateselected. Talbot held the Democratic party,the media, and the voters equally respon¬sible.A question from the audience concerningthe decline in the quality of life in the cityof Chicago sparked an exchange of viewsbetween Aldermen Pucinski and Frost.Pucinski agreed with the individual, sayingthat property taxes have risen too high,and criticizing the Mayor for not expand¬ing the police force. Frost argued thathigher taxes reflect the higher cost ofgovernment in general, and that the sub¬urbs do not provide as many services asChicago does.Pucinski said we have downgraded poli¬tics too much. By overemphasizing conflictand corruption in city politics, the mediahas made the public ambivalent to thepolitical process. Green summed up byasking those present to become involved inlocal politics as a way to insure the healthof the democratic system.The panel discussion took place in a half-filled Mandel Hall. It was sponsored by theStudent Finance and Academic ActivitiesCommittees.FACULTY STUDENT ADVISORY COMMITTEEONCAMPUS STUDENT LIFE(FSACCSL, pronounced “facsul”)ELECTIONS 1986-87In May, students throughout the University will have an opportunity to elect eightof their fellows to the Faculty Student Advisory Committee on Campus Student Life(FSACCSL.) These eight will meet with faculty members of the committee and theDean of Students in the University to advise the latter on the ranee of non-academicfunctions that are performed by his office. All students in the College, Divisions andSchools interested in serving on FSACCSL are urged to consult the Dean of StudentsOffice (Administration 219) tor nominating petitions and further instructions.Over the past few years, FSACCSL has discussed and made recommendationsconcerning such topics as the structure of student activities fees at the University, thegovernance of MAB, and the renovation of Ida Noyes; other significant discussionshave revolved around University policy on the use of alcohol and the role of athleticsand recreational sports at the University. In addition to its substantive discussions,FSACCSL serves also a ''committee on committees" recommending studentmembers for various other faculty-student committees.To qualify for candidacy, a student must be a registered degree candidate in goodstanding wno will also be registered in the University during the 1986-87 academicyear. A student must file for candidacy from the academic constituency in which heor she will be a student in 1986-87.Nominating petitions are available now in Administration 219. In accordance withexisting procedures developed by the student members of the 1984-85 FSACCSL,graduate candidates shoula have their nominating petitions endorsed by thesignatures of at least 30 students in the electoral constituency in which they will beregistered in 1986-87; undergraduates who will be serving from the College in 1986-87should have their nominating petitions endorsed by the signatures of at least 50registered students in the College.Nominating petitions must be returned to the Office of the Dean of Students nolater than 4:00 p.m. on Friday, April 25th.The Chicago Maroon—Friday, April 11,19*9—3The ChiStudent News Maroonrsity of ChicagoLETTERSAct to save spring formalTo the Editor,As a member of the Executive Com¬mittee and Secretary of Student Govern¬ment, I wish to clarify the Maroon articleand editorial concerning the SpringFormal. Contrary to the other SG executiveofficers, I support and voted to approve theSpring Formal downtown. I disagreestrongly with Dean O’Connell, my fellowExecutive Committee members and theirweak stand against the Administration andthe administration's actions.Dean O’Connell and the Administrationhave controlled and often oppressed stu¬dent activities for too long. Now is the timefor students to mobilize and lobby for morerights and the freedom to spend our ac¬tivities money. Dean O’Connell’s statementthat “Student Government is richer thanthe University at this point,” is The University is simply unwilling to sup¬port and enchance our social lives. TheUniversity has no right to tell students howto spend their activities money.I hope that students consider the rami¬fications of the administration’s dis¬continuance of funding the Spring Formaland their attempt to keep us on campus. Icongratulate the Students to Save SpringFormal for their aggressiveness. I hopethis spirit and aggressive behavior diffusesthroughout the University and StudentGovernment. I am ready for some actionand less talk.Please join me and my fellow Assemblymembers and support the Spring Formal atthe Palmer House.Amy MossStudent GovernmentSecretarySAO's to blame for formalTo the Editor:Since the last issue of the Maroon con¬tained both articles and editorials blaminga great number of people concerning thechaos over the Spring Formal, I thought afew points should be clarified. The presentsituation is the result of the Ida NoyesRenovation Plan and its creators. Five orsix years ago, a committee comprised ofadministrators, faculty, and student rep¬resentatives decided Ida Noyes could beturned into a sort of Student Union byrenovating the structure and adding ex¬tras. The biggest extra was a real movietheater which would replace the gym in thebuilding. Henry Crown Field House wouldpick up the needs of the gym, it wasclaimed. The entire committee report,while mentioning the conur.’ied use of IdaNoyes for formal events and dances, neverdoes make mention of the Spring Formal.Enough of the Renovation Report. Earlylast year, the Dean’s Student AdvisoryCommittee (a small student group whichadvises the Dean of the College on ac¬ademic and student affairs) was asked toconsider the proposed renovations andmake comments. Members of the DSACspoke with Ralph Hamilton (then AssistantDean of Students in the University). One ofour major concerns was that the SpringFormal would be maintained even if it wasmoved or reorganized. We were given as¬surances not to worry. We didn’t. Ourmistake.Then, only a few weeks ago, Irene Conley, after “agonizing” over the issuesdecided to cancel the Formal outrightwithout even seeking the leaders of StudentGovernment. What were the issues IreneConley agonized over? Simply this—theformal usually draws 1,000 or so people.The band is very expensive to hire; if IdaNoyes was to be used it would limit thenumber to between 600-800 meaning a lossin revenue and turning away 200-400 peo¬ple. The lost revenue would necessitateraising the prices on tickets for the 600-800people attending. Ms. Conley felt peoplewouldn’t or couldn’t pay a substantial in¬crease and furthermore she didn’t want toturn 200-400 people away. So what was hersolution? Turn everyone away, cancel theFormal, let Dean O’Connell make it apublic announcement, and avoid the issuealtogether.The fact that dedicated students like SueWrobel and Tim Hansen made time andeffort to pick up the pieces at the lastminute doesn’t remove the blame fromSAO. At the last minute the SAO droppedthe project without so much as in¬vestigating if student groups might helpdefray costs or be interested in co¬organizing and co-sponsoring the SpringFormal. Decisions made in this manner byan organization funded with student moneyis unbelievable but all too commonplace atthis University where most administratorsdon’t ask for student advice or input untilafter the decisions are made.Serge LippeThe Chicago MaroonThe Chicago Maroon is the official student newspaper of the University ofChicago.

COLUMNB-Schoolers value their pointsBy Ken ArmstrongStaff WriterMy giggle soloed through the Cox Loungeair. Its altimeter needle looped ever-rightward, threatening a circle, but then aconcrete cloud of silence nihilized the en¬gine. The needle leap-looped left.G.G. stared and spoke sternly. “Justwhat are you laughing at?” she demanded.“Oh, sorry,” I sputtered. “I must havemisunderstood. It’s just that I thought J.P.actually said something about you guyshaving to bid for your classes.”I giggled again, but this time at a con¬servative 3,000 feet. Again, silence shotdown the plane. Two quick kills.“I did,” J.P. monotoned. “All of us in thebusiness school have to bid for the classeswe want.”“Yeah,” C.D. chipped in. “We also haveto bid for job interviews. We’re given a setnumber of points at the start of eachquarter, so we have to establish our per¬sonal priorities carefully.” He pauseddramatically, “but I fail to see what’s sodamn humorous about that.”“Oh, come on,” I giggled defensively -the propellor spinned, but no take-off. “Ithought this was supposed to be a school,not Wall Street. You know, like escapefrom the proverbial ‘real world.’ ”G.G. snorted condescension through hernostrils. “Listen, Ken, we’re talking aboutthe U of C B-School here, not ‘Mr. Rogers’Neighborhood of Finance.’ We pride our¬selves on being even more real than thereal world.”Just as I was breaking into a sarcasticsnicker, P.J. dashed frantically up to ourtable. “G.G., C.D., J.P.,” he breathedfeverishly,” could I please borrow fiftypoints?”His plea was met with Easter Islandstores. Eventually, C.D.’s face crumbled,“What do you think this is, P.J., a welfare-state?”“Oh, please, C.D., I’ve got to go to thebathroom so bad it hurts - and I’m out ofpoints!”I stared on in wonderment. The othersstared on in a stupor.“Well,” grinned G.G., “maybe youshould have thought about that before youbid those 4,000 points on ‘Macro-micro-metroeconomics 403’.”“Yeah,” chirped J.P., “or those 3,000Doints for an interview with Toys-R-Us.”I quickly interrupted their gleeful flag¬ellation of poor P.J. “Wait, wait—just whatthe hell is going on here?”“Don’t you know?” asked J.P. in¬dignantly.“Obviously not, Babbitt breath, or Iwouldn’t have asked the question,” Isneered.“Well, here in Stewart the business stu¬dents have to pay points in order to use thebathrooms. Again, it promotes prioritydevelopment.”“And efficiency,” chimed C.D. “Thepoints charged are time adjusted - a pointa second. Makes you piss quickly. Youknow, promotion of biological control.”“And foresight, preparation,” addedG.G. “And creativity, coming up with al¬ternative solutions. And it also develops anappreciation for the rewards of pain and suffering.”“But be fair,” pleaded P.J. “You allknow I was born with an abnormally smallbladder. I’ve been pissing points likecrazy.”“Bad gene,” G.G. accused, while shak¬ing her head from side to side. “We’ve gotto eradicate it, not show it sympathy. Hell,if we make compensations for your badbladder gene now, then in 10 generationseveryone will be pissing every five min¬utes.”“Yeah, haven’t you read your HerbertSpencer?” demanded C.D.“But I’m out of solutions!” screamedP.J. “I already talked with someone in thedean’s office about a loan, but she said I’dhave to provide collateral. I offered to puta lien on my wedding ring, but she saidthat wasn’t sufficient.“So right now my in-laws are trying toget a third mortgage on their home so Ican get 5,000 more points.”“Life is tough,” lectured C.D., “but thisis for your own benefit.”“Perhaps you should consider an in¬vestment in bladder surgery,” J.P. added.Biology again rang P.J.’s doorbell, andhe sprinted out of the lounge.G.G. laughed. “Poor P.P. - oh,” shepaused, and then confided to me, “that’swhat we call P.J. when his bladder beck¬ons.”I half-heartedly smiled at the bad joke,then noticed a middle-aged man approach¬ing our table. “You are C.D. Cracker, areyou not?” he asked in a voice resemblingthat of Vincent Price.“Oh,... yeah,” C.D. hestiated.“I have a notice from the dean.” Theman placed an envelope before C.D., thenbriskly walked away.C.D.’s finger trembled as he tore openthe envelope. Then, as he read its contents,his eyelids ran in vertical terror awayfrom each other.“Oh, my God,” he moaned. “Oh, myGod.”“What is it?!” G.G. asked impatiently.“I ... I ... I overdrew my account.” AsC.D.’s face fell into his open hands, every¬one within earshot gasped in horror.“You mean,” asked J.P., “that youbounced a bid?”“Yes,” cried C D., “I don’t believe it. Ithought I had balanced my bid-book, but...well, I guess I must have gotten careless.”“So what’s the big deal?” I asked. “I doit all the time. You just pay a penalty andforget about it, right?”Silence.“Right?”C.D. lifted his head, then slowly began tospeak. “No, oh ignorant one, you forget.This is the U of C We don’t believe in suchlenient measures.”I laughed, then cut the engine and cruisegiggled at 2,000 feet. “Well, just what arewe talking about here - a debtor prison?”The altimeter needle looped right.Slowly, I noticed that I was the only onelaughing. Then, as two men with handcuffsentered the lounge, C.D. jumped to hisfeet.Not a word was spoken as the financialfugitive made his break for freedom.Got a nose for news?Then come write for the Maroon.See Liz or Molly Tuesdays or Fridays 1-4 p m4—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, April 11,1986Pornography is not the threatTo the Editor:Rene V. Arcilla, in response to my letterin the Feb. 18 Maroon, is hardly justified insaying that I “appear to seriously misun¬derstand the current concern about thepresence of pornography in our society”,since I said nothing about that concern: Iaddressed only the question (raised in re¬marks by the SG Treasurer) of whether themere fact that porn videos and other pos¬sible components of the LCB would offendpeople was grounds for striking them fromthe budget. Let me, however, make up forthe omission.There is great diversity among oppo¬nents of pornography. The only thing thatthey have in common may be that they findpornography an easy scapegoat on which toblame ills that they are concerned about.What I find depressing about the wide¬spread (though far from unanimous) op¬position to pornography among feminists istheir uncritical acceptance of conclusions that relate to questions of importance tothem. Perhaps Ms. Arcilla knows of someserious study that provides substance toher statement that pornography has a“possible link to sexual violence”, but Ihave not heard of any myself. Rape is andought to remain high on the list of concernsof feminists, and it is a shame if the effortand time that feminists devote to combat¬ting rape is channeled into a campaign thatmay well be irrelevant to the prevalence ofrape. My view here is close to that of BettyFriedan, who urges “ceasing the obsessionwith the matter of pornography” (NewYork Times Magazine, Nov. 3, 1985). In aworld that remains filled with seriousthreats and obstacles to the well-being ofwomen, I am puzzled and dismayed at thelarge proportion of the energies of feminists that goes into opposing somethingthat poses no clear threat to anyone.James D. McCawleyProfessor of LinguisticsA proper Maroon apologyTo our readers,On Friday, April 4th, the Maroon pub¬lished its annual April Fools issue. Uponcareful consideration of the issue by theeditorial staff, we feel we owe the public anapology.The issue was in many ways offensive tothe University and the surrounding com¬munity, and generally showed bad tastethroughout. We fault ourselves for notclearly marking the issue as a spoof, andwe express our most sincere apologies toanyone taken in by any of the slightlybelieveable stories.By way of explanation for the debacle ofthe April Fools issue, the Maroon can onlyoffer the information that it was the workof several fringe members of the Maroonstaff who were entrusted with the issue toprovide a well deserved extended rest forthe rest of the Maroon staff. Though we donot shirk from the blame that clearly restsupon us for allowing the publication of suchfoul, insidious material, we wish to make itclear that the April Fools issue is notrepresentative of the mentality of most ofthe Maroon staff. We wholeheartedly agreewith critics who say it was a particularly obnoxious issue.In order to fully punish those crude, low,tasteless, and, yes, scum of the earth whocreated such an appalling issue, we haveinstituted the following punishment:1) Those responsible will undergo con¬tinuous self-flagellation from 5 am to 5 pmfor eight weeks. After every 800th stroke,these people will cry out “I am not funny.”Since these students will continue to attendclass, please disregard them during thesestrange actions.2) The Maroon's baking editor is consid¬ering withholding food from these hard¬working but misdirected writers, but thisseems too harsh an action.3) Maroon editors will wear hair shirtsemblazoned with scarlet M’s each Sundaynight for the next five years in memory ofthe dastardly act of this issue.We hope that these acts and this letterwill mend the damages and sooth thewounds caused by our mistake in allowingthe publication of this April Fools issue.We also have a nice, new 72’ luxury yachtto sell you, cheap, if you believe this.The Maroon truck rentalU.C.

With thischange, “musical capabilities aregeometrically increased.”Sandroff explained that the studio is a“laboratory production facility for musicstudents interested in the creative forces ofmusic.”In order to use the equipment, studentsmust enroll in a two-quarter sequence,Introduction to Electronic Music, taught bySandroff, which introduces students to “thecomputer as a performance medium.”The studio is “expensive to operate andsupported solely by the University De¬partment of Music,” Sandroff said. Al¬though the department endeavors to grad¬ually upgrade the studio every few years,it relies on occasional large grants formajor purchases.Because the Women’s Board was re¬sponsible for a grant approximately tenBy Molly McClainNews EditorWanted: Experienced babysitters.Found: SG Babysitting Service.The Student Government BabysittingService has had a successful year so far,according to Bill Florida, President ofStudent Government. Not only is it an“excellent source of student jobs” but alsoit “provides (for a) need that obviouslyexists...Hyde Park has a lot of...workingand studying parents,” Florida said.According to Florida, SG had originallywanted to create a day care center, but thisplan turned out to be unfeasible. Insteadthey initiated a program that providesparents with names of students interestedin babysitting. Florida noted that parent years ago which “enabled the music de¬partment to have its first electronic musicstudio,” Board member Nanette Thompsonsaid “it was natural that they should cometo us for funds to update the studio.”According to Thompson, the Women’sBoard “serves as an ambassador for theUniversity and raises money for specialprojects.” The Board is composed of 380women associated with the University.In this case, their project has enabledthe music studio to install quality Yamaha“digital equipment which includes a digitalsynthesizer and microprocessor,” Sandroffsaid.Sandroff, a composer, views the newdigital equipment as a major advancementfor the studio. According to Sandroff,“digital performance expands the potentialfor expressiveness by allowing the com¬poser to work with musical ideas beyondthe capability of performance with con¬ventional instrumentation.”Sandroff added that this summer theDepartment of Music and the Departmentof Continuing Education will sponsor a twoweek intensive seminar on FM synthesis.The event will be produced in connectionwith Yamaha International.Other donations from the UniversityWomen’s Board this year include mone¬tary support of the Ida Noyes renovationproject.associations often direct parents to thissource of babysitters.Students fill out a form available in theSG office which lists their names, phonenumbers, references and pay rate. Ac¬cording to Florida, most student requestfrom 2 to 3 dollars an hour. SG receives nomoney from this service but allows stu¬dents to contract freely. This form is thenplaced in a book that hangs on the door ofthe SG office in Ida Noyes. This year, about20 to 25 students have been listed in thebook, Florida said.According to Florida, comments fromparents are “never anything negative.”Most often, parents call asking for morebabysitters. “People (are) trying to getmore,” Florida said.

April 11,1986—9Campus Coffee Shop improvements investigatedBy Craig BlackstoneStaff WriterAt one time or another, most of us havebeen in one of the coffee shops locatedthroughout the campus. While drinkingcoffee, we don’t usually notice our sur¬roundings, but when we do, it is usually tocomplain about the lack of atmosphere inCobb or the absence of milk and chocolatecoconut doughnuts in Weiss or Nonesuch.These are but some of the problems thathave plagued the coffee shops which fallunder the auspices of the Student ActivitiesOrganization and it seems like things aregoing to get worse before they get better.Weiss. Nonesuch and Cobb have recentlyfallen on hard times. The problem stemsfrom many sources: the University ad¬ministration, coffee shop management andthe community at large have all had ahand in their ailments. The shops haverecently acquired a new manager, JoelStitzel/and he has a lot to do for and sayabout his charges.Stitzel takes his shops seriously and hewould like the University community to dothe same. Upon taking the job, he foundthat people had a “bad attitude” towardthe shops and that many of the patronswere "bitching" and “expecting things not to be there”. This last complaint has itsfoundations in previous management andin. the administration. Former managerRobert Monk mentioned that he often be¬came lax and simply did not get his orderin on time. More often, however, the prob¬lem was situated with the distributors.Because of the small size of the operation,orders are minimal by most distributor’sstandards. Hence, when a supplier ispressed for time on his route, these shopsare dropped from the delivery schedulewith no real problems for the distributorand the shop manager is left with the bag.Monk also mentioned that he had prob¬lems with his suppliers because they wereoften not paid on time. Payment of billsrests not with the shop manager or SAObut with the University Comptroller. Whena supplier was not paid by this office, hewould simply halt deliveries and the shopmanager would not find out until it was toolate. Stitzel agreed that payments to dis¬tributors is a problem. He said that theUniversity “takes its time” paying supp¬liers. He cited the fact that one distributor,until recently, had not been paid sinceDecember of last year. Only under pres¬sure from “higher-ups” did the Comptrol¬ler’s office pay the bill.A student getting lunch in Swift Coffeeshop CHRISTINE DVRUD This past quarter, the shops gained aproblem from a source that no one reallyanticipated—the City of Chicago. The ori¬gin of the problem is clouded in mystery.According to SAO director Irene Conley, acity inspector showed up one day as aresult of an “anonymous call” and foundall three shops in violation of City law. Itseems that from their inception, theseshops have been operating without licensesand have not had certain equipment whichthe city requires of “any food preparation”establishment. This “equipment" consistsof a three part sink of which no one reallyknows the purpose. But it is needed inorder to avoid repercussions from the City.Both Conley and Stitzel mentioned thatthis new can of worms creates many prob¬lems for the shops and will lead to manychanges, the most obvious of which is the“stupid paper chef’s hats” employees willsoon be wearing. However, the key wordseems to be “renovation”. Both personsagree that renovation is a much neededgood and that in this light, the city hasproduced an “impetus to betterment”.Stitzel is all for it because “it would makethings better for the employees”. Conleylikes the idea for different reasons, onebeing that it would get the city out of herhair. Furthermore, renovation will solve an-other great problem /com-palint—atmosphere. As Conley says, theseplaces are a service to the Universitycommunity that act as “student hang¬outs” and they have little or no character.Cobb appears to be the worst of the lot. Itis decorated in “1957 suburban finishedbasement” and is silent as a crypt. Conleysays SAO has plans to cure such faults andmake the shops “more attractive" placeswith a “warm and welcome” feeling whichwill improve the “quality of existence" atthe University. The shops, particularlyCobb, are places to meet between classeswhich offer “a sense of family and place"to their patrons. The idea is to make peopleenjoy the shops more so than many donow. Plans for improvement include newpaint, new furniture, artwork, and music insome or all of the shops. Such amenitiescan make or break a student’s day and allconcerned hope that the improvements,once completed (the timetable is at presentuncertain), will make everyone’s day.As things stand now, Weiss, Nonesuchand Cobb have too many problems for oneperson to handle alone. However, betweenthem, Conley and Stitzel seem to havethings under control and. no thanks to theCity of Chicago, may even be makingthings better for them and for us.USITE increases powerBy Thomas CoxStaff WriterThe Computation Center’s USITE facili¬ties at Harper Library received a hugeboost in computing power last week.

Bennett addsthe figures also suggest thatschools are getting better,teacher salaries don’t influencehow good schools are and federalfunding isn’t always necessaryto make sure schools keep im¬proving. However, other ed¬ucators doubt the validity of theconclusions drawn from the newdata.“God knows what their datameans,” says Howard Wainer ofthe Educational Testing Service.Wainer and other critics thinkBennett misinterpreted the sta¬tistics. In fact, some criticscharge that Bennett eitherdoesr’t know how to read data,or is being victimized by his owndepartment’s budget cuts.At a February 20 press con¬ference, Bennett, who has re¬peatedly raised controversysince assuming office in 1985,noted that test scores have goneup since the early eighties, whilethe drop-out rate has fallen from70.9% in 1982 to 69.7% in 1985.Bennett also argued that thestatistics show a very low cor-statistics show a very low cor¬relation between averageteacher salaries and the relativequality of education in schools,nett’s attempt to link test scoresto drop-out rates. “Nobodyknows exactly what the drop-outrates are,” he contends. “Everystate measures them differently.There is no uniform method...There is just no way to reallyknow.”The Education Department isunswayed, asserting admissionstest scores can measure how schools are performing, andtheir performance is related to ahigher retention rate.SLEEPIN’ USA...(CPS) It doesn’t have much todo with their high-living image,but college students probablyprefer sleeping to dating, a newsurvey of collegiate attitudes hasfound. Dating, in fact, was onlystudents’ sixth favorite activity.Attending parties topped thesurvey of student preferences.“Partying is definitely a verb oncampus,” commented JulieBoyle, a spokeswoman for thecompany conducting the survey.Of the more than 6,500 studentssurveyed, 70% listed partying asone of their five favorite ac¬tivities.Listening to records came insecond, with 63% of the studentsquestioned rating it as one oftheir favorite pastimes. Sleepingscored a surprising third, with56%, followed by going to themovies and eating. Only 42% ofthe respondents said dating wasa favorite activity.VIDEO YEARBOOK...Twelve universities around thecountry will produce videoyearbooks this year, reports theUniversity of Alabama’s TheCrimson White. At Alabama, thevideo has been named BTV(Bama Tide Video), and filmingbegan at that school’s Home¬coming. The 30 minute video willinclude interviews with studentsand footage of important cam¬pus events, such as footballgames and celebrity speakerslike Bryant Gumbel. The tapewill cost approximately fortydollars, but will be well worththe money, says promoter BobLevitan.

At One Lancer Place,Worcester’s pub, bartenders aregetting set for renewed action atthe beer taps — taps that wentdry last June.Worcester State’s trusteesclosed the campus pub because they feared liability lawyersmight come after them person¬ally if a bar-related incidentwent to court Though the tavernhad a clean record, the fright¬ened trustees yanked the liquorprivileges indefinitely.Recently, Gov.

In theirhome opener on Saturday, Chicago em¬barrassed a strong Northwestern squad bya score of 12-7. However, they were unableto maintain their success against nation¬ally ranked Division III power NotreDame. Chicago lost by a count of 12-6 toNotre Dame on Sunday.The Maroons who only have defeatedNorthwestern once before took the Wild¬cats by surprise on Saturday by putting ona strong performance despite the absenceof several key players. The Chicago of¬fense was lead by Hugh Birch who cameout of retirement for the third time in fouryears to score three goals against North¬western. Midfielders Matt Hand and Ted“Chilly” Voorhees made strong showingsby contributing two goals and one assistapiece to the Maroon effort. Rounding outthe scoring for Chicago were Jon Hers-kovitz, Rob Perry, and Nick Shermeta. Lacrosse splits a pair of gamesGoalie Phil Tremble spearheaded theSouthsider’s defense against their bour¬geois rivals from the North Shore. In addi¬tion to stopping more shots than the bullet¬proof glass at Harold’s, Tremble single-handedly took on the entire Northwesternoffense to clear the ball on several occa¬sions, and lead the team in enthusiasmduring play and beer consumption after thegame. Former defensive coach, John Per-sky, whose presence Chicago has sorelymissed this season, was in town for thegame, and commented on the improve¬ment of the defense, “Real bread andbutter play by Tom Lee, Chris Panczer,and Frank Connolly”.Coach Joe Giles was pleased with histeam’s style of play, “We looked good.Certainly we need a lot of work, startingwith the basics, but hey, we won.”Chicago did not fare as well on Sunday.Hurt by the absence of Voorhees andBirch’s sudden return to retirement, theteam was unable to sustain the momen¬tum. Although Chicago came out to anearly 4-2 lead, they soon fell behind and were never able to catch up against a welldrilled Notre Dame squad.Leading the Chicago scoring charge wasRob Spencer with two goals and two as¬sists. The others who appeared in thescorebook for scoring were midfieldersHand and Rob Perry.Phil Tremble had another outstandinggame in the goal but even with the assist¬ance of star defenseman Matt Berg, Chic¬ago was unable to quell the Irish scoringdrive. Berg who replaced Persky asdefensive coordinator was particularlyimpressed with the play of Chicago’s newdefenseman Mike Donohoe. “His open fieldground ball work was a pleasure towatch”. Berg, the most experienced de¬fenseman on the Chicago squad ration¬ alized Donohoe’s domination of play bynoting that experience is no substitute torbeing a law school student.Coach Giles pointed out that the Maroonswere able to stay in the game throughoutthe first half and only fell behind in thesecond. Giles said, “We were tired fromyesterday’s game. And as I said before, weneed work.” For Tremble the cap on analready frustrating day was his inability torepeat Saturday’s post-game performancedue to the Sunday drinking laws in In¬diana.Chicago will play their next home gameon Sunday at 1:00 p.m. on Stagg Fieldagainst one of the premier teams in themid-west, the Chicago Lacrosse Club.W/w- aresv’bfims?Come write for usSee Steve or Ingrid Fridays 1 -4 p.m,The great beers of the world go by one name: Lowenbrau.

Cornell684-540012—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, April 11,1986IISoftball takes two in a doubleheaderBy Jon HerskovitzSports EditorThey have been tearing up the league.The Chicago Women’s Softball team hasgotten off to a start in conference play.After four MCAW games, Chicago is 4-0,and they have won three of those games bythe “slaughter rule.”Conference play started this past Satur¬day when Lawrence University came to theU of C for a doubleheader at North Field.Chicago won both ends of the doubleheaderby scores of 5-0 and then 16-0.The first game was a tight one. Finepitching by Kathy McGarvey stalled anyoffensive charge from Lawrence.McGarvey only gave up one hit while shestruck out ten. She had to keep the gameclose. Chicago only had a 1-0 lead throughfive innings; it was not until the sixthinning that Chicago blew the game open.Chicago scored four runs in the sixth to putthe final score at 5-0.In the second game of the afternoon,Chicago had the Lawrence pitcher, Beck¬with, measured. After watching her pitch the first game, the Maroons were biting thebit to get a shot at her in the second.Chicago exploded for seven runs in theirpart of the first. McGarvey again stymiedthe Lawrence batters. After an eight runfifth inning, topped by Arzou Ahsan’s threerun home run to left, Chicago won thegame by the slaughter rule after five in¬nings. The slaughter rule ends a gameafter five innings if one of the teams has aten run lead over the other.Arzou Ahsan was the star of the secondgame. She went four for four from the platewith a home run, triple, two singles, andfour RBI’s. Lynn Bircsak also did welloffensively as she went 3-7 against Laur¬ence.With an absolute viciousness Chicagobeat Beloit in both ends of a doubleheaderplayed at Beloit this past Tuesday. Chicagowon both games by the slaughter rule withscores of 22-4, and 20-10, and sent twoBeloit players to the hospital with injuriesthey suffered during the play of the games.In the first game of the doubleheaderChicago’s bats exploded for 13 hits and 22 CHICAGO 22 BELOIT 4 ~\NAMEBircsak 2BMcGarvey PAhsan CFFitzpatrick SSGemmill 1BLively DHGrossman LFBork 3BThompson RFDetloff CParshall LFJovell PH AB R4 14 35 33 04 14 22 34 42 30 01 11 1 H Bl1 12 32 30 02 40 02 04 20 20 00 10 0TotalsChicagoBeloitE-Bircsak (2), Thompson2B-McGarvey, Bork 3B-Ahsan 34 22 13 167 3 7 5110 2rv.

After a scoreless first inning, Chicagoscored all 22 of their runs over the courseof the next four. Senior first-baseman,Helen Gemmill, knocked in four runs whileMcGarvey and Ahsan knocked in three apiece.The first game was delayed for 35 min¬utes after an Ahsan grounder sent theBeloit shortstop sprawling. The Beloitplayer was knocked unconscious and had tobe removed from the field with a back-board.In the second end of the doubleheader thehot Chicago offense put 20 runs on theboard in only 12 hits. Kathy McGarveyplayed the biggest part in the scoring with6 RBI’s, while juniors Madelyn Detloff andAhsan has 4 RBI’s a piece.For the most part this game was won onthe basepaths. Chiago had 6 stolen bases. and several past balls and wild pitchesfrom the Beloit battery made almost everyChicago single into a triple.But there was some bad news in theChicago victories. Sophomore pitcherMcGarvey suffered a wrist injury to herpitching hand in the fifth inning of the finalgame. She is expected to be able to pitchagain by today.If you want to see the Softball team youhave two chances this weekend. TodayAugustana College travels to North Field toplay a single game at 3:00 pm. And tomor¬row Elmhurst College comes to North Fieldto play a doubleheader. Game time for thefirst game is 1:00 pm, and it is parent’s dayat the ball park. Everyone bringing theirparents to the game will be admitted freeof charge; in fact, anyone who has parentswill be admitted free of charge.The Last StringThe old order changeth, giving way to new, lest one good custom corruptthe whole world.Chicago, April 7, 1986. Tom Seaver; 20 years major league experience,making a record 16th opening day start.This old man, beginning, in what, in all likelihood will be his final openingday assignment in his final big league season gives up five earned runs infive and one third innings on route to his second opening day loss in 16 tries.Had Ken Harrelson not moved home plate back 8 feet over the winter, Seaverwould have given up four homeruns instead of only two.Cincinnati, April 7, 1986. Pete Rose; many years major league experience,not in the lineup on opening day for the first time ever.This old man had to put himself on the disabled list to meet the 24 manroster limit. Hard to imagine Pete Rose stepping aside, even if temporarily,to let someone else play baseball. Harder to imageine Pete Rose admittingthat he is susceptible to aches and pains.Also in Cincinnati. Steve Carlton; 21 years major league experience,attempting to cameback from his worst effort ever, a 1-8 record in 1985.This old man was staked to a four-run lead by the second inning of thisgame, and yet the Lefty of the past generation gets blown away and his teamloses 7-5.St. Louis, April 8, 1986. Ron Cey; 14 years major league experience,benched on opening day for the first time since his rookie season. He watcheshis team lose 2-1 from the bench, as his replacement goes 0-for-3.Houston, April 8, 1986. Nolan Ryan; 20 years major league experience,given the opening day assignment for the Houston Astros.This old man gives up 6 runs in 6 and one third innings to the team tabbedas 125-1 to win the National League pennant, by far the most astronomicalodds given this year in all of baseball. But even more telling is that baseball’sall-time strikeout king, the only man to strikeout more batters than he haspitched innings over a 20 year career, fans only 4 Giants in his stint on themound.Seattle, April 8, 1986.

Less and less magic attending Mr.October’s hitting.Wouldn’t it be awful if someone were new to baseball and happened tocatch the opening day performances of these veteran stars and made ajudgement about their skills and determination on this evidence alone.Reminds me of the story of the poor old sportswriter who labored inobscurity on the back pages of his newspaper every Friday for three years,until he was quoted out of context on the most prominent page of thenewspaper he worked for. so that 8000 people who had never even heard hisname could pass judgement on his work on the basis of eleven words takenfrom the middle of a 600 word piece.I guess, Arthur, some things are just not fair, but then who expects them tobe any more.: Tired of playing by yourself? jICome join the Maroon’s team. 1* See Jon Herskovitz| Sundays at 7 pm ySltoWifll GuealPlot, mauen Gtukt —Dept fti Bible and Audita Km Emi Ben Gum*Ukul e( fke KegeuPtei ftuitai witt tpeak etc die folx&Body jConguMje at ate BiblicalWoftldhiday.

Unfortunately, the most surpris¬ing thing about “Hold it, Now Hit it" on DefJam records is that it isn't very good.The Beastie’s producer and adjunct memberRick Rubin is one of today’s hottest producers,the man behind the cut-down-to-the-boneminimalist beats of LL Cool J's wonderful“Radio” LP, several re-mixes for Big AudioDynamite, as well as the Beastie’s mammoth1985 single, “She's On It”. But unlike thepowerful metal guitar/bass/drum combo on“She’s On It” or the hard beats of its Run-DMCpenned b-side, “Slow and Low”, “Hold it, NowHit it” is very muddy, a slow hodge-podge ofmix-tricks, found vocals, and mediocre raps.After each of the three Beasties take a fewturns rapping over a thick bass line, “Hold it”seems to fade out, and the “chorus” comeson—a tedious mixture of found vocals overLatin-American sounding drums and whistles(perhaps the Beastie Boys are in their mariachiband phase?). The raps do not have the sonicpower Rubin is capable of attaining, but soundquite muffled (this is especially noticably on theb-side, which is an a cappella mix of "Hold it”).The chorus falls apart after one listen—themixing isn’t terrific, and the song isn’t mariachienough to be a funny parody, if this is what itwas intended to be. The song just never seemsto take off, sluggishly moving back and forthfrom rap to mariachi band. Unlike 1983’s“Cookie Puss”, in which Rubin adroitlyscratch-mixed such oddities as Steve Martinroutines and telephone calls to a Carvel Ice Cream store, “Hold it, Now Hit H” sounds tiredand disjointed, without the massive dance beatand humorous mixing which held “CookiePuss” together.Sigue Sigue Sputnik “Love Missile F1-11” b/w“Hack Attack” (EMI Import)If you haven't heard of Sigue Sigue Sputnikyet, you probably will be hearing a lot aboutthem in the near future. Currently the hottestgroup in the British musical press, it is nearlyimpossible to pick up an issue of New MusicalExpress or Melody Maker without seeing SigueSigue Sputnik. Immediately after it was re¬leased, Sputnik’s first single, “Love Missile Fi¬ll ”, made it into the British top five.With all the hype surrounding the groupsbizarre looks and immodest politics (theyopenly brag that they will be the richest andbiggest group in the world) it is hard to see themusic under ihe hoopla. But, surprisingly, thesong is pretty good. Produced by the renownedGiorgio Moroder (Donna Summer, Nina Hagen,Phil Oakey), "Love Missile” is dominated by ahooky, pulsing synth riff and Martin Degville’secho-laden vocals. Tony James, formerly thebass player with Billy Idol’s original band,Generation X, plays “space guitar” and addssome trebly guitar work which sounds remi¬niscent of Gen X’s smash, “Dancing WithMyself”.The band promotes itself with all kinds ofimagery from the film A Clockwork Orange.One of their posters has Martin Degville posinginside a triangle, holding a knife a la MalcolmMcDowell. Similarly, “Love Missile” recalls thefilm, using snippets of actual dialog from themovie. The 12” version of “Love Missile” evenincludes a section of Beethoven’s ninth, thepiece which drove the hero of Clockwork to tryto kill himself.“Get ready for the fifth generation ofrock’n’roll” it says on the jacket of "LoveMissile”. Will Sigue Sigue Sputnik be the bandto take us there? People who have seen themin concert report that many of their other songsrecall T. Rex. Will they take us forward orbackward? Until they release another record,know one knows for sure. In the meantime,pick up a copy of “Love Missile F1-11” anddecide for yourself how wealthy Sigue SigueSputnik deserves to be.

The Pogures- Poguetry in Motion E.P.5 The Fall-Rollin' Danny E.P. by James GinsburgOf the various companies which send newclassical releases to WHPK, Angel Recordshas been the most generous. For this reason, Iam devoting this first column exclusively to ournew Angels. The most impressive recent de¬velopment at Angel/EMI has been the creationof a new mid-price label called “Eminence.” AllEminence recordings are originally taped orremastered digitally, and every new recordingon the Angel label is now pressed through theDirect Metal Mastering process. In addition toproducing high quality, incredibly quiet sur¬faces. this technique allows Angel to put morethan forty minutes of music on one record side,or over eighty for the whole LP—more musicthan even a compact disc can hold.The advantage of DMM is perhaps bestdemonstrated by a recent Eminence, digitallyremastered, reissue of Brahms’ Symphony #2and Symphony #4 with the Philharmonia Or¬chestra conducted by Otto Klemperer—on onerecord (AE-34413)! Klemperer’s Brahms ismarked by relatively slow tempos and lushtextures, and the mid-price recording repre¬sents a tremendous value. Other notable Emi¬nence reissues in the WHPK record libraryinclude Stokowski’s landmark performance ofDmitri Shostakovich’s long and lyricalSymphony #11, dedicated to the 1905 revolu¬tion (AE-34446), and the late Emil Gilels’ virileNEW BELEW REVlEreadings of the Beethoven piano concertos withthe Cleveland Orchestra and conductor GeorgeSzell (AE-34408. 34433, and 34434). One otherrecently digitally remastered recording I mustmention is Maria Callas’ first recording ofPuccini’s Tosca, in my opinion the greatestopera recording ever (and certainly to bediscussed in more detail in a future column),now on the Angel Voices label as a mid-pricedtwo record set (AV-34047), and also availableon compact disc.The Eminence series is not limited to reis¬sues of older recordings, however. For exam¬ple, Jeffrey Tate’s stylish performances of thelate Mozart symphonies with the EnglishChamber Orchestra—1985 digital record¬ings—are being offered on this lower pricedline (AE-34439, 34440 and 34468). Finally, I’dlike to mention for potential buyers, two ofWHPK's most notable recent acquisitions fromAngel Records’ main line, both available oncompact disc. These are the Alban Berg Qua¬rtet’s reading of Schubert’s string quartets #13and #14 (DS-38233—a coupling made possiblyonly by DMM) and Neville Marriner’s finestrecording yet of two great Mozart symphonies:#38 and #39 (DS-38238).If you would like to hear a sample of theseand other new Angel recordings, they will befeatured on WHPK on Tuesday. April 15 from2:30 to 5 pm.by Arthur CohenWhen King Crimson broke up for the fifth orsixth time in 1984, Robert Frtpp went back intoretirement, Tony Levin went back to doingsessions work, Bill Bruford went back on tourwith Patrick Moraz, and for a while it seemedthat Adrian Belew had simply disappeared. Heresurfaced at the beginning of this year, play¬ing the club circuit in a band called the Bears,consisting of Belew (on guitar and vocals) andthree former members of a Cincinnati bandcalled the Raisins (Rob Fetters, guitar andvocals; Bob Nyswonger, electric and electricupright bass; and Chris Arduser, drums). Somepeople were undoubtedly surprised to findBelew—who worked with Frank Zappa, DavidBowie and Talking Heads before piningCrimson—in a band with three musicians un¬known outside of Cincinnati, but the formerRaisins showed that their lack of fame was notdue to any lack of talent, and their concert (atthe Vic, February 22) was on the whole ex¬cellent.Although Belew had been the focal point ofthe advertising for the concert (the tickets justsaid “Adrian Belew”), during the concert hecame across as a band member, rather than arock star fronting a back-up band. The bandplayed several songs from Belew’s solo albums(Lone Rhino, 1982 and Twang Bar King. 1983)and Jimi Hendrix's “Purple Haze” as a secondencore, but the majority of the songs were“Bears” songs with which most of the audi¬ence was probably unfamiliar. Several of thesewere sung by Fetters, who also showed himself to be much more than just a rhythm guitarist.While Belew showed himself unequaled inmaking strange noises with a guitar (especiallyon "Purple Haze” and Lone RNno s “TheMomur”), Fetters’ solos were definitely in thesame league. The guitar pyrotechnics did notdominate the show, howewr; the songs werewell-written and enjoyable and the dance floorwas filled all night.On the whole, the new songs were verygood, and many of them were on a par withnearly anything on Belew’s solo albums. How¬ever, several of the songs seemed somewhatinferior (if only by comparison). I suspect thatthe band was still working on material torecord, and some of the songs they played atthe Vic will probably get scrapped eventually,with no great loss to their repetoire Theperformances of material from Lone Rhino andTwang Bar King were uniformly excellent(especially "The Rail Song”), and while no oneexcept the idiot who kept yelling “Go back toFripp” expected tohear any Crimson songs. I’msure that most of the audience (myself in¬cluded) would have liked to hear more songsfrom Belew's solo albums.Despite some weaknesses in material, thisconcert showed that the Bears are definitely aband to watch in the future. It's always apleasure to find a band that’s really fun to listento and dance to that has really talented music¬ians in it, and the Bears are just such a band. Icertainly hope they will have an album outsoon, especially if another concert tour followsThis concert was as good as anything I’ve seenin the last twelve months.BIZARRE PSYCHIC RECORD REVIEWER REVEALS NEW COLUMNDR. DISK SPEAKSby Dr. DiskJoin the bizarre and elusive Dr. Disk eachweek on a journey through the musical strat¬osphere as he answers your thought-provokingquestions about music. Dr. Disk, who is looselyassociated with WHPK-FM and the University ofChicago, would love to answer any musicquestions which you might have.Today Dr. Disk answers some burning ques¬tions about Pete Shelley, the innovative andinfluential leader of the Buzzcocks and suc¬cessful solo artist — a diverse musician whosework ranges from speedy guitar punk tosynthesized dance music to harsh industrialmusic. Dr. Disk also talks about Shelley’s newsingle on Mercury records, “Waiting for Love”.Question #1: Did Pete Shelley invent hard¬core punk music when he was in the Buzz-cocks?Well, maybe. Lots of people argue who“invented” hardcore or, in fact, any type ofmusic. There is no doubt, however, that theBuzzcocks did inspire many other punk andhardcore bands.The Buzzcocks stood out among their punkpeers in two major ways: firstly, Pete Shelley,their chief songwriter, singer, and guitarist, is aterribly romantic guy Rather than sing aboutdestroying things or about communist revolu¬ tions in South America, Shelley always sangabout lost relationships and his bitter search torhappiness and true love. Secondly, and this iswhat may have inspired many of today’s punkbands, was the characteristic waB of soundunder Shelley’s catchy, melodic vocals. Theurgent sound of Shelley’s guitar, rushing for¬ward, constantly pushing the music faster andfaster. The adrenafized din behind songs like“Boredom”, “You Tear Me Up”, and “What DoI Get”, and many others certainly became ablueprint for many other bands.Question 02: Did Pete Shelley really inventhip-hop music?Well, ah, no. But check out the innovative“Late for the Train” on the Buzzock’s LoveBites LP, a neat track which couples a pound¬ing, repetitive drum sound with Shelley’s sea¬ring guitar. For a song that was recorded in1978, the steady drum sound is quite high inthe mix making Ruzzoork rlmmmpr InhnMaher sound like a drum machine on a 1986vintage hip-hop song.Question #3: Did Pete Shelley really invent modem synth-dance music?On his Homosapien solo LP, Shelley the madromantic guitarist became Shelley the madromantic keyboard and drum machine player.Together with Martin Rushent, who producedthe Human League’s breakthrough synth single“Don’t You Want Me” as well as the Buzz¬cocks, Shelley created a great dance album.The single “Homosapien” was a world-wide hit,and helped establish the synthesizer as thenorm for dancefloor ditties. In later songs, like“Telephone Operator”, Shelley took his guitarout of the closet and started to make guitar-synth-dance music, a form which he doesbetter than almost anybody.Question *4: Is Pete Shelley still around?Has he put out any new records in the last fewyears? Is he dead? Is he hiding in a caveinventing a new form of music to change ourlives?Vpc ypc no, maybe. After Shelley left Aristarecords in 1983, he joined an independentrecord label called Immaculate. He put out onegreat single called “Never Again”, but, unfor¬ tunately, Immaculate’s distribution network col¬lapsed and the single didn’t find its way into thestores on time. It took Shelley several years toget all the legal tie-ups straightened out and tosign a recording contract with Mercury recordsQuestion #5: What is Pete's new record like?The A-side, “Waiting for Love”, is danceableand Catchy, with hard accoustic guitar overPete’s rolling keyboards. The B-side, called“Designer Lamps”, is a real departure for him.It sounds more like a Test Dept song than"Telephone Operator." The song is loud andnoisy. Hypnotic percussion pounds away whilelayer after layer of agonizing screams washover your ears, slowly fading into the mix So,heck, who knows what Pete’s new LP willsound Bke based on the diversity of the twosongs on his new single. But it’s good to beable to say, after something of a three-yearhiatus welcome back Pete And who knows,maybe he is secretly creating some kind of newmusic which will change the music industryHe's done it beforeWell, that’s it for this week’s column. If youhave any musical questions, or if there is someartist rock, jazz, whatevei — who you wouldlike me to cover, write to me.

It ismore akin to the geometric repetition ofIslamic art, for example, than to thenarrative progression of program musicspawned by our own breed of logic(which is not, hard as it is to believe, theonly way to think). The development ofGlass’ music moves like the motion ofan image through frames of film — amusical idea is rapidly repeated andvery slightly altered, so that, eventhough in the long run the ideas changedrastically, any two contigous frames’are practically identical. Glass' fluidform has often been called dreamlike —trance music that expresses the con¬templativeness of Eastern thought withthe hard-wired mechanical repetitionmade possible by Western technology.Glass started out conventionallyenough, beginning his studies at thePeabody Conservatory in his native Bal¬timore when he was eight years old. Heenrolled at the University of Chicagowhen he was fifteen and later went on tostudy composition at Juilliard. By 1964,he was off to Europe to study with oneof the great mentors of 20th centurymusic. Nadia Boulanger. Even so, he attributes much of the formation of hisaesthetic sense to his experience in theEast. Speaking of India, he says, "Myideas wouldn’t have developed in theway they did if I hadn’t started in thatplace." Prominent influences from thattime include Allah Rakha, an Indianpercussionist, and the renowned sitarist,Ravi Shankar. From them he learnedsomething about a different kind ofmotion, a different notion of time, thathe has subsequently expressed in themystically hypnotic, seemingly staticrhythms and textures that characterizehis sound.The Philip Glass Ensemble wasformed in 1970, and the group today isbasically the same that has put togethersuch projects as the Glassworks albumand the extensive opera, Einstein on theBeach. Glass works primarily with amp¬lified keyboard (which he often performshimself), voices, and winds. Glass andthe musicians working with him areamong those of our time who are actu¬ally coming up with a new language forthe expression of musical ideas, a lan¬guage which, while not utterly dis¬connected from the Great Tradition, ismore than a mere repackaging of thesame old thing.

They lit a torch of anguish and protestthat ignited the decaying urban areas of majorAmerican cities. Chicago was no exception. Ivividly remember being a part of a wave ofstudents who stormed out of Lindblom HighSchool on Chicago’s south side. We would notbe calmed by Black moderates who spoke to usof a love that did not save King’s life or fulfill hisdream. Our faith in a peaceful resolution tocenturies old grievances was consumed in afire that burned our souls, and rotten tene¬ments.Martin King was simply one more of ourbrethen, possibly the greatest, who would feelthe sting of an implacable power structure thatwas not ready for democracy. One more Blackradical who was ahead of his time. One moreidealist who trusted in a system that had notearned the honor of his faith. King was anambiguous figure in those days. He was toomoderate for most of us and too radical forothers. Where King encouraged civil disobedi¬ence. the FBI responded with threats, sabotageand scandal. Where King demanded the fullempowerment of Blacks and the poor, whiteliberals answered with pleas for patience andmoderation. Where King asked for a halt to theVietnam War and a dismantling of the militaryindustrial complex, Blacks cried out shouts ofbetrayal to their special causeKing’s last years were fraught with selfdoubt. FBI harassment, a splintering of anuneasy liberal coalition, and a fragmentedBlack response to his program. The NobelPeace Prize winner could not convince thenation that the war in Vietnam was wrong andunjust. His call for love of the enemy wentunheeded by Blacks in the urban north whoexperienced the excruciating form of subtlediscrimination perfected by the white statusby Leslie BarnhartNamibia. The Namib desert stretches alongthe entire coast of this west Africa country.Scorched by burning hot winds from the eastfor part of the year and cooled by coastal fogsthe other part, this foreboding body of sand isat once an extremely harsh environment forhuman life yet held tenuously in equilibrium bynature. If one looks closely at the surface of thisdesert one may find the top layer teeming withanimal and insect life that has learned to liveboth above and below the ground. Diggingdeep below the sand one finds an incrediblewealth of the rocks and minerals that keep theindustrial world ticking. Copper, gold, diam¬onds, uranium — what more could you ask for.Night and day the southern hemisphere’s larg¬est privately owned fleet of earth movingequipment digs diligently extracting greatquantities of the earth’s hardest rock.Who enjoys this great wealth of resources?We do. The United States and other industrialnations are well represented in the miningindustry of Namibia Huge transnational cor¬porations such as AMAX (American Metals),Allis Chalmers (nuclear technology), The HannaMining Company, and Union Carbide are just afew that represent the U.S. England and SouthAfrica share Rossing Uranium Unlimited, theAnglo American Corporation of South Africaand DeBeers. In fact, eleven out the nineteenSouth African companies in Namibia are miningcompanies. Australia, West Germany, France,Japan, Switzerland, Israel — fishing, banking,automobiles, agriculture, marketing, oil; all ofthese industries are owned or run by whites. DoNamibians of other races reap any of thebenefits from all this industry? No. They areforced to live on reserves or in bantustans, theymust carry passbooks at all times and aresubject to arbitrary arrest under contract laborlaws they are forced to work in the factories forpennies or face starvation. Sound familiar?South Africa is not only Namibia’s southernneighbor, it is also their oppressor. South Africahas been the colonial ruler of Namibia foralmost seventy-one years and has smothered itwith its oppressive apartheid policies.Long before any European and South Africancolonizers had invaded Namibia, this barrenregion held few settlers For centuries justBushmen and a now extinct tribe called theBergdama inhabited the Kalahari and Namibdeserts. Anthony Bannister says in his book,Africa's Harsh Paradise, that the Bergdamawere "a black race whose origins are unknownand whose culture has been lost like a drop in aturbulent ocean.” The Herrero and Nama tribescame in from the north to graze their cattle onthe only arable land in the region, the centralplateau. They immediately were in conflict overland as there was so little usable land. TheOwambo followed but stayed in the northernpart of the country They soon established thereputation of being highly protective of theirown land, unfriendly, and impervious to theconflict between the other tribes. These char¬acteristics were to prove beneficial for them infuture conflicts with colonists.Other tribes wandered in and out of theterritory, trading with the Owambo for copper quo. King’s hope for a Poor People’s Campaignfocused on Washington D.C. to demand fun¬damental changes in the economic system, wasa telling sign that the great March on Wash¬ington five years earlier had not been morethan a mass catharsis. However, he did not liveto see that through. A bullet with his name on itended his life on April 4th, 1968, and werealized that peace had been given a chanceand had been found wanting His death gavebirth to the children of anger. Any naive hopeswe cherished about the possibilities for peace¬ful progress were also killed by that bullet. Weunderstand that not only did the SNCC and theBlack Panthers face suppression, but alsooeaceful advocates of change faced the samedestiny. The violent suppression of studentprotests at Jackson State and Kent State werefurther proof that a “law and order” mentalityhad replaced a tolerance for acts of civildisobedience. We would not be like lambs ledto the slaughter for principles that America hadthat they were mining in the Kalahari andtrading with the Herrero and Nama for cattle.The first foreign traders brought guns, liquor,and cloth to barter for ivory, cattle, and slavesWhen the tracers discovered the great mineralwealth of the country, they entered in droves.The traders were followed by Christian mis¬sionaries. At about the same time, Germanyand Portugal were competing for colonialclaims in Africa. Each had an anxious eye onthe wealth of resources in Namibia. In aconference in Berlin, though, in 1884-5, Ger¬many was allocated the territory which it namedSouth West Africa and the boundaries to theterritory were set at the conference Soon afterthe conference, the first German colonizerslanded in the territory. They first attempts atgaining control over the African tribes was metwith heavy resistance. Discouraged, they re¬treated to outlying areas but were soon sentshiploads of soldiers and more German settlers.With the help of the traders and the mis¬sionaries. the Germans soon had the “native”tribes under control. The missionaries andtraders helped in the sense that they hadalready been able to weaken the peoplegreatly. The Herrero and Nama had discoveredthe usefulness of guns that helped prolong theirongoing war over land and held them heavily indebt to the traders. The missionaries were busytrying to get disparate tribes centralized in afew large areas which greatly facilitated theGerman’s efforts. In turn, the traders were ableto use the colonial court system to back up theirclaims and were able to rip some tribes off ofeverything they had. The missionaries also laidclaim to many farms and their cattle.In 1904, after the German’s had firmly es¬tablished themselves in the territory, one largetribe of Herrero did attempt to revolt. They weredriven into the Kalahari where many were shotand the rest died of starvation and thirst. As theGermans and Portugese were none to friendlyat this time, they heavily guarded their bordersand many African tribes found themselves cutin half or unable to follow game into differenthunting grounds. These nomadic tribes wereforced to become agricultralists in the alreadyovercrowded central plateau or were forced towork for the German settlers. The oppressiveregime of South Africa was pushing manygroups north into Namibia, again adding to theinternal pressure. The Germans attempted tosolve the problem by exterminating 60% of theAfrican population in the south and centralregions by 1907.The Germans imposed forced labor, pass,vagrancy, and contract laws. They had most ofthe remaining Africans working in the "PoliceZone” in the northern part of the plateau. By1913, 13.4 million hectares of land had beentaken over by settlers, more than half of thecattle was in settlers’ hands, and the Germanshad exported more than 5.5 million carats ofdiamonds. They had killed and driven off somany Africans that they had to ask othercolonies to send workers. These Germans,though, had such a widespread reputation forextreme brutality that every other colony, in¬cluding other German ones, refused to sendworkers. Everyone, that is, except South AfricaThe German attitude toward the African forgotten. King’s calls for protest were an¬swered decisively by a high powered rifle. Weare only now recovering from the shock of hispassing. Perhaps our healing may be aided bya consideration of some of his words.“The racism of today is real, but thedemocratic spirit that has always faced itis equally real. The value in pullingracism out of its obscurity and stripping itof its rationalizations lies in the confi¬dence that it can be changed. To livewith the pretense that racism is a doct¬rine of a very few is to disarm us infighting it frontally as scientifically unsound, morally repugnant and sociallydestructive”(Where Do We Go From Here?, p. 83)"We who engage in nonviolent directaction are not the creators of tension.We merely bring to the surface thepeople is clearly summed up by Paul Rohrbach,head of the Settlement Commission, in thisquote.The decision to colonise in SouthernAfrica means nothing else than that thenative tribes must withdraw from thelands on which they have pastured theircattle and so let the white man pasturehis cattle on these self same lands. If themoral rights of this standpoint are ques¬tioned, the answer is that for people ofthe cultural standard of the South Africannatives, the loss of their free naturalbarbarism and the development of aclass of in the service of and dependenton whites is above all a law of survival ofthe highest order.The Germans were superceded in this sur¬vival of the voracious by the South Africanswho, as “British allies" in 1914, seized SouthWest Africa from Germany. As can be ex¬pected, nothing changed for the Africans, theywere in the exact position South Africa wantedthem to be. At the end of World War I, theTreaty of Versaille put the territory under thesupervision of the League of Nations. TheLeague put the territory under the mandate ofSouth Africa saying that the South Africanswere to “promote to the utmost the materialand moral well-being and social progress of theinhabitants of the territory.” General Smutsthen declared that the mandate was equal toannexation and continued to treat South WestAfrica as an appendage to South Africa. He did,though, send the required annual reports on thestatus of the territory to the League until itsdemise in 1939Stepping back for a moment, South Africa,soon after their occupation of the territory,moved all of the Africans that were not alreadyliving in the Police Zone onto reserves and intobantustans. In 1923, they passed the Native(Urban Areas) Act which segregated urbanareas. In 1927, they passed the Native Ad-minstration Act which prevents Blacks fromrunning shops or businesses outside town¬ships. The reserves are situated on the borderof the deserts and the cental plateau. There isno arable land there in order to grow food orgraze cattle so the Africans were forced to seekwork in the factones or starve. They were alsosubject to arrest if found outside the reservewithout the proper pass and were thrown in jailor shipped to another reserve even if they hadno family there. The situation is the sametoday.In 1945, the United Nations decided tobecome the trustee of South West Africa. SouthAfrica decided to propose annexation formallybut was turned down. Heavily criticized by theUN general assembly for their actions in SouthWest Africa, in 1949 South Africa refused tosend any more reports to the UN. A year laterthe International Court of Justice ruled thatSouth Africa must report to the UN which theSouth Africans refused to do again. It took themseventeen years, but the UN finally terminatedSouth Africa's mandate and assumed respon¬sibility of South West Africa. They set up acommission to administer the territory until its hidden tension that is already aiive. Webring it out in the open where it can beseen and dealt with. Like a boil that cani never be cured as long as it is coveredup but must be opened with all its pus¬flowing ugliness to the natural medicinesof air and light, injustice must likewise beexposed, with all of the tension its ex¬posing creates, to the light of humanconscience and the air of national opi¬nion before it can be cured”(Letter from Birmingham Jail p. 3)King’s life is a challenge to resist the forceswhich constrain human freedom. We honorKing through our actions of love and resistancewhich build just and compassionate socialstructures.Dr. King’s Memory Rings As A Challenge ToThe University Of ChicagoDr. King’s mentor, Dr. Benjamin E. Mays,was an alumnus of the U. of C. Dr. Mays wroteof the humiliating experiences he suffered as astudent here at the University in his autobiog¬raphy, Born to Rebel Fifty years later Blackstudents are the subject of security policeharassment and intimidation. Only six Blackfaculty are tenured, only two teach in thehumanities and social sciences, and there is alack of will be the University to create struc¬tures of support for Black students. This is theonly major University without an office of mi¬nority or Black student affairs. The Universitymust live up to the challenge by King to berepresentative of all sectors of society Racism,by all objective and subjective assessments, isvery much a fabric of our institutionWe can no longer claim the bliss of ig¬norance and allow the present state of affairs togo unchallenged. The University’s complicityextends even to its failure to divest fromcompanies doing business in South Africa.Martin King may sleep but he still dreams Mayhis dreams wake us up and stir us to action.independence. This was all, of course, sym¬bolic. as the South Africans had already fullyimplemented apartheid and were in completecontrol of the country. In 1968, the country wasrenamed by the UN, in cooperation with theAfrican people of the territory, Namibia, andthey called for South African withdrawal fromthe country. In 1971, the International Court ofJustice ruled that South African occupation inNambia was illegal and called upon other statesto refrain from assisting this regime. Through¬out the years up to the present, the UN hascalled many times for different embargosagainst South Africa with the U.S. usuallyabstaining.Another concern of the UN is that SouthAfrica is the enemy of all its neighboringcountries and has been using Namibia as abase camp to direct their attacks on Angola andZambia. In i960, the resistance movement wasstarted in full with the founding of the SouthWest Africa People’s Organization. The UNrecognizes SWAPO as the true governing bodyand representative of the Namibian people. In1966. SWAPO decided to take up arms againstthe South African army in Namibia. The UNsupported this move and today Namibia is in astate of civil war.Also today, Blacks make up 88.5% of thepopulation; English, Afrikaners, and Germansmake up the other 11.6% of the population(Coloureds were included in the Black popula¬tion.) 60% of the Namibian people live on 5%of the land along the northern border andeastern tip of the Caprivi strip where towns andmines are concentrated. Another 20% live onreserves. The Owambo tribe has been granteda “homeland” which they govern themselves.Whites own all businesses, land, industry,mines; Blacks are forced to work for barelysubsistence pay. Many times they are not givena place to live on company property, and oneoil company’s workers built their own shacksout of oil drums The condition of the Namibianpeople is equal to and in many ways worsethan that of the South African Blacks. Namibia,for all its natural wealth, is extremely poor whenone looks at the conditions of the Blacks.Franz Fanon once said. "Colonialism is not athinking machine, nor a body endowed withreasoning faculites. It is a violence in its naturalstate and it will only yield when confronted withgreater violence." This seems to be the con¬clusion taken by SWAPO. It is hard for the non-colonized to decide if this is the best approach.Hopefully most people are against violence asan answer to their problems, but in the end it isfor the colonized to decideBibliographyBannister, Anthony, Africa's Harsh Paradise,(Domus Books, Chicago, New York. e 1979.)Department of Information and Publicity,SWAPO of Namibia, To Be Bom a NationLiberation Struggle of Namibia.

In fact, I've beeneating for as long as I can remember. Perhapsmy favorite pastime (avocation) is turning peo¬ple on to the many great places in Chicago forcheap-eats. This is a city to see from behind aknife, napkin, or straw; this is an abdominalcity.I’m talking about junk-food, but not junk. I’mnot talking about getting polluted and slidingdown to the White Castle on Stony Island; thatpeople actually enjoy eating (far too generous aword — swallowing, or gagging, is more ac¬curate) there is the strongest argument I knowof against fraternity hazing. Everyone in HydePark, especially those who suffer the wrath ofthe dormitories intolerable ‘‘Tomato Beef Fran¬cisco” or ‘‘Fish Pizza”, desperately waiting forthe odd meal of steak and scallops when thetrustees visit, deserves to cleanse and to charmtheir tongue and palate for the tiniest fraction ofthose hard-earned student loan dollars.These are among my favorite places in thecity to pig-out. All of these gastronomic epi¬curean delights can be had by public transpor¬tation; by God, learn how to use this tool to risefrom your shackles, blow Hyde Park, and eat,eat, eat. I also recommend making friends withsomeone, and whea you have gotten thatdown, make friends with someone who has acar, and have them take you both; trust me,you will be doing them both a favor.Breakfast and BrunchI love breakfast, and I mean a great bigbreakfast with all the major food groups — fruit,meat, bread, and caffeine. There are a coupleof places in Hyde Park worth noting.Valois, See-Your-Food (1518 E. 53rd, acrossfrom the Hyde Park Bank building) serves apretty good, very cheap breakfast and some ofthe best biscuits in the city. Salonika, on 57thand Blackstone, serves your oasic diner break¬fast, but its a little more money than Valois. Ifyou have not tried the weekend brunch atMedici on 57th (57th and Harper) and theirfreshly baked and (usually) hot croissants, youare missing a good bet. As well, the coffee isexcellent and, often, you can have your friendsserving you, an added treat.My favorite spot for breakfast in the city isLou Mitchell’s at 565 W. Jackson (take theJackson bus west from Michigan Avenue a couple blocks west of Wacker Drive). Lou, orhis nephew, will greet you at the door with freshdonut holes (on weekdays) and boxes of Milk-Duds for the women (he has something specialfor pregnant women). It is always busy but theservice is prompt. The coffee is the world’s bestand the eggs are double-yolked (one egg = twoeggs). Every meal begins with a prune andorange slice, and ends with a refreshing dollopof raspberry frozen yogurt; everything whichfalls between is first rate. I highly recommendthis place.Another terrific breakfast spot is AnnSather’s Swedish Restaurant at 925 W Belmont(from the loop, take the Howard El to Belmont;it is just east of the tracks). Do not miss out ontheir concupiscent (see The Emperor of IceCream by Wallace Stevens) cinnamon rolls(Swedish soulfood). The other food is excellentand since they expanded into the funeral homenext door there is rarely a long wait on theweekends.Another good spot for brunch both on week¬days and weekends is Chinatown for Dim Sum.I recommend that you go in a large group sothat you can have more variety. At this orientalbrunch, the waiters come around to your tableAftermath. with carts of many small dishes of steameddumplings, fried dumplings, cold dishes, noodleplates, meat plates, etc. and you simply choosewhat you would like from the carts. It should bea long meal of many courses. Chinatown is atCermak (22nd) and Wentworth (take the DanRyan El to Cermak and you are right there).Many places in Chinatown serve a Dim Sum,and not all of them jerve from carts and not allserve on the weekdays. I recommend ThreeHappiness at 2130 S Wentworth, but experi¬ment.My favorite place for bagels in the city isBrooklyn Bagel Boys at 2932 N Broadway (takethe Broadway bus, which you can catch in theloop on Dearborn Street, north to Oakdale). Thebagels are fresh throughout the day and thegreen onion and chive cream cheese is quitefine.LunchOne of my favorite lunches is also in Chin¬atown. You better run, run, run, run, to theHappy Garden Bakery at 2358 S. Wentworth forbuns, or bze (pronounced Bauze). These aresweet, rich dough baked around various meatfillings, such as beef curry, Chinese sausage, orchicken and vegetables. My personal favorite is the B.B.Q. pork, but it is ra*->er sweet (just sothat you know, I have a fer Jous sweet tooth,which may slightly bias my te—just so youknow). The bakery also sells a variety of othermeat filled pasterie and dessert things, all ofwhich are extremely rich and incredibly cheap(,65«-.85«).The finest Italian Beef sa^ vich in the city ofChicago can be had for a nu ;e pittance at Al'sB.B.Q. at 1079 W. Taylor (take the Jackson buswest on Jackson to Halsted—you will be inGreek Town (you mean you’ve never beenhere?)—transfer to the Halsted bus going southand get off at Taylor—you will be on the U. of I.Chicago Circle campus (so this is where it is).Taylor street is the heart ot the Italian neigh¬borhood, which means onlv one thing to thisboy, FOOD. Al’s sandwich is perfect, absolutelyloaded with slightly sweet, peppery, oily frag¬ments of beef. The sandwich is best withmounds of sweet peppers, dipped (served aujus), and eaten at Al’s country which is alwaysthree deep at lunch and dinne*, or on the curbin front of Al’s. Also, the frit: are a gift of theGods. Note: avoid the sausage, which pales incomparison to the beef sandwich; it is likely tobe dry. Also note that the sandwich is in¬expensive and when served with the fries isenough for dinner, even fo me. There is anItalian Lemonade stand s >ss the street(Mario's) but save your me >/. Go to MamaTish's Italian Lemonade stand at 1459 W Taylor(Do not walk from Al’s; take a bus or othersuitable vehicle. ‘Nough said): more on Tish’sin a future article. Anyway, it probably does notopen until May.Another good place for sandwiches and abrew is the standup counter at The Berghoff inthe loop at 17 W Adams.

His persistent calls forjustice and his courageous stance on non¬violent resistance were silenced by a mute andviolent blow of racial hatred. The assassinationleft the Civil Rights movement mourning aprophet, and our nation awakened to its shame.In the 18 years since his death our nationhas come to recognize Dr. King as a hero;governmental policies have been enacted toatone for the centuries of injustice that Americahas inflicted upon people of color; and thesuperstructure of our racial caste system haseroded. The 18 years which mark his death andthe first national celebration of his life gage thesuccess of King’s non-violent philosophy; aphilosophy which has had real and lastingsignificance toward the eradication of racism.The anniversary of Martin Luther King’sassassination is a fitting time to outline hisideological and tactical approach to rectifyinginjustice through non-violent action. For King, aminister of peace, Christ’s admonition to loveyour enemy had special meaning. The ex¬periences of racial oppression caused King toundertake a serious intellectual quest for amethod to eliminate social evil; he found it inthe teachings of Mahatma Ghandi. Ghandi’sdoctrine reinforced his realization that lovingyour enemy need not mean submitting to hisoppression. Ghandi professed the idea of Sat-yagraha — a soul force which equates truthwith love. Ghandi’s position that truth and lovewere power feuled King’s advocacy for non¬violence. The character of the soul force mustmeet everything and the physique must takesecond place. Satyagraha adheres to tacticssuch as negotiation and arbitration, the issuingof ultimatums, boycotts, strikes, non¬cooperation and civil disobedience.King employed the philosophy of non¬violence such that love became the instrumentof a revolutionary mass movement for socialjustice. King strongly flavored Ghandi’s insightwith the Christian gospel. His magnetic per¬sonality brought non-violence to life for a massfollowing. King made non-violence credible at acrucial time in American history; but non¬violence as a philosophy and a technique,though particularly relevant to the issue of race,transgresses race and time. King’s legacy isthe successful implementation of the non¬violent philosophy to effect positive socialchange.Martin Luther King once said that ’non¬violence can touch men where the law cannotreach them. It is a method which seeks toimplement the just law by appealing to theconsciences of the great decent majority whothrough blindness, fear, pride or irrationalityhave allowed their consciousness to sleep.’Non-violent passive resistance is perhaps a poor choice of words to describe the tacticwhich produces peaceful social change. Theterm non-violent is defined by negation; theword passive implies ineffectual weakness; andthe word resistance does not suggest thatprogress occurs. Nevertheless, King’s homegrown version of Satyagraha proved to be aviable technique to approach the problem ofsocial injustice. True pacifism is not an unreal¬istic submission to evil. It is rather a courage¬ous confrontation of evil by the power of love, inthe faith that it is better to be the recipient ofviolence than the inflictor of it. ‘It is my hope,’King said, ‘that as the Negro plunges deeperinto the quest for freedom and justice, he willplunge even deeper into the philosophy ofnonviolence. The Negro all over the South mustcome to the point where he can say to his whitebrother that we will match your capacity toinflict suffering with our capacity to enduresuffering. We will meet your physical force withsoul force. We will not hate you, but we will notobey your evil laws. We will soon wear youdown by pure capacity to suffer.’The faith and endurance of Dr. King held truethrough his own suffering. Even after deaththreats ana house bombings, King stood true toGhandi’s words. ‘Victory is impossible until weare able to keep our tempers under the gravestprovocation.’Non-violent theory supposes that all peopleare equipped with a moral structure; that de¬spite cultural differences and private per¬versities, humanity has a conscience incommon, and the moral universe is on the sideof justice.Non-violence pursues the goal of the es¬tablishment of justice. It presents a fierce anduncompromising demand for the fulfillment ofhuman rights. This end has traditionally beenmet with violence (in the form of riots, warfareand hatred). The choice of violence is not onlyunnecessary but wrong—both ethically andpractically. Non-violence was grasped by theMartin Luther King and Mahatma Ghandi. Black American masses as the only practicalway to achieve justice since Black utilization ofviolence on a collective level could only besmall-scale and short term. As the group lack¬ing the bulk of the artillary, non-violent resist¬ance became the only effective weapon for theBlack American. Many white americansgrasped King’s idea of non-violence as a rec-oncilatory means to effect change.Justice was to triumph over injustice throughthe application of a doctrine which was tactic¬ally resourceful. The Civil Rights leader chosethe tactics of civil disobedience, mass par¬ticipation and confrontation to liberate Americafrom the evil of segregation. Civil disobediencecalled for unjust laws to be openly disobeyed.The aim was to change the laws, acceptingpenalties and disclaiming personal exemption.Mass participation is used for effectiveness andpersonal healing. King channelled mass out¬rage into positive peaceful demonstrationswhich reinforced a sense of Black self-worthand self-reliance.The non-violent strategist tries to create asituation to which the power structure mustrespond. Situations of tension in which thelatent hostility and hatred within the oppressorbecome explicit and public serve the non¬violent reformist well. Demands of the oppres¬sed made openly are integral to the theories ofnon-violence. King used the media to help himwith this end. Mobs cannot tolerate the pres¬ence of cameras, demonstrators desperatelyneed them to document abuses. Confrontationbrings into view the men and women whosubmit themselves, unarmed and unsheilded,pledged against anger and retaliation, sus¬tained by a profound belief in the justice of theircause. The confrontationalist is essentially ap¬pealing to the consciences of their enemeiesand to the judgment of mankind. King capital¬ized on the media to record the soul force of hiscause.It has been suggested that Martin Luther King was a white man’s Negro, that he was thedarling of the white liberals because he pro¬vided an attractive alternative to the un¬compromising attitudes of Black militants suchas Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammed. King wasoften scorned by Black separatists who felt thathis non-violent philosophy demanded inhumanheroism on the part of Blacks in order to gain amodicum of decency from whites. The fact thathe was a clergyman discounted his appeal tothese militants. He could be dismissed as aleftover from the days when religion was aplacating gimmick used by whites to makereality tolerable for Blacks.But it was King’s Christianity which em¬powered him to lead a mass movement. TheChristian way hoped to cause a bloodlessrevolution. The gifted orator preached thegospel as a means to evoke responses fromboth the oppressor and the oppressed thatwould drive their wills.For King, the goal was to rectify injustice; themethod was non-violent demonstration and thetheory was based on the assumption that allpeople were inherently good. Servitude, seg¬regation and discrimination were devices of anoppressive super-structure and were to bedefied openly. King attacked the structure ofracism rather than its agents; the system ratherthan the person who ran it. Jailed more than 30times, King also accented the penalties fordisobeying those unjust laws.The examples of the leader set the tone for amass non-violent rejection of the symbols ofsegregation. It is only after Blacks learned thatthey could demand and get recognition as fullhuman persons that they would be ready toattack the foundations of the system-—discrimination in jobs, politics, education andhousing.The enforced caste system that resulted inracial subordination on the Montgomery bussystem was one of the first systems that Kingattacked. It took over a year (12/55-12/56) totopple this obvious insult of segregation. Thefirst battle through non-violence had been won;the withdrawal of economic support proved apowerful tool in redressing the dignity of theBlack American.The success of the bus boycott (as with themyriad marches, demonstrations, sit-ins andjailings which ensued) was that it dramatizedthe existence of injustice. King’s persona andtactics allowed him to use the media to cap¬tivate the consciousness of the American peo¬ple. Montgomery proved that passive resistancecould be made to work on a massive scale. Aprogram of mass indoctrination in the tactics ofnon-violence was undertaken; it effectivelyneutralized the hatred which arose from racismwith a call of justice based on love.References:King-A Biography; David L.

Rock and Roll music. Driving, crea¬tive, intense Rock and Roll music. Ah, memo¬ries...Remember when you really used to listen tomusic (if you ever did at all)? I remember manya high-school drinking party with Led Zeppelinor The Who blasting from one of the assembledcar’s stereos I remember school parties when"Walk This Way,” "Don’t Fear the Reaper,”"Mr. Crowley” ancP*other such songs domi¬nated the playlist, with the majority of theirproponents threatening physical harm to anywho dared try to play a pop or disco song. Iremember small groups of friends hurryinghome fresh from the hassles and banality ofNew York City public schools to houses vac¬ated by working parents, and shattering thepoor family dog’s eardrums by playing PinkFloyd’s The Wall or The Who's Ouadropheniaat just under distortion volumes. You could betthat all present knew every word and note ofeach song, the result of many hours of intensescrutiny and infinite appreciation of such deificart. Ah, memories...Yes, it seems that memories are fast becom¬ing all that’s left of this practice of discoveringand appreciating Rock music comprehensively:of investing time in scrutinizing musical artistrywhich requires an attention span, not to men¬tion the active intellectual participation of thelistener. For. after all, we must admit that it’sdifficult to dance to King Crimson (I preferYardbirds or early Stones myself), to frat-bopwhile being mesmerized by "Roundabout,” orto chat about Stat class while Roger Waterssmirks at British imperialism and expressesdisrespect for "a group of anonymous LatinAmerican meat-packing glitterati ”Hence, we throw on Prince, whose musiccertainly poses no threat of making frat con¬versations seem insipid by comparison. Whenwe feel like gyrating/flashing our bodies in thelatest "styles,” doing so to the ThompsonTwins or at best the B-52's makes our activityseem less pretentious and egotistical thandoing so to, say, the Kinks or early Who would.I guess in some sense this is all under¬standable, for we all need some lobotomizingmindlessness sometimes—though there’s cer¬tainly no lack of it at this school. However, Isuppose if one wants to go out of his or her wayto find some, there are few better choices thanattending one of the generous number of fratand dorm parties given here each quarter(though attending your local house-councilmeeting will usually come close).No, what I lament is the now seemingly non¬existent, previously cliched college activity ofsmall groups of friends sitting back in aninformal atmosphere, with some assortment offavorite intoxicants (nothing dangerous, kids!),listening to some moving album. The specificmusicians were rarely important: it was usuallyunderstood what types were considered “com¬patible” with the "scene,” and what washeresy. This was never tyranny, though: for thegamut of "compatible” music was five or tentimes as broad and diverse as what today’sMTV/Hit-Radio children have to choose from.Though all are lumped in that dubious genre of(intelligent) Rock and Roll, one would be hard-pressed to find similarities between JimiHendrix/Yes/Traffic or Cream/Jeff Beck/Gene¬sis. In fact, when among an intelligentcrowd—one that has taken the necessary timeand effort to "recognize the real thing when itcomes along once in a while,” the only pleas¬ure above that of playing DJ to them, is havingsomeone play DJ for you.Instead, today, we have U of C "in¬tellectuals” playing Madonna, post-1982 Carsor Sheila E. on sophisticated, multi-thousanddollar stereo systems. Have we really improvedon listening to “Happy Jack” or "Lady Jane”on '60’s mono phonographs? Were the long¬haired, anti-establishment Stones of the ’60’sreally making equivalent social statements tothose made today by short-haired, earring-ed,pseudo-mod MTV glamour boys like Tears forFears, Mr. Mister, et al? I can already see theaccusationss of a stagnant, pro-past attitudetowards the "ever-evolving state of Rock,”made by people who wil not deign to elaborateon the various (several? any?) merits of clownslike Starship, Motley Crue, the man passing bythe name of Phil Collins, and post-1984 Heart.Ah, well...In any event, I’m usually able to sanely dealwith the types of music pervading public gath¬erings at the U of C, and to stick patiently andalone to music of relative integrity. Then whatcaused this sudden, emotional crusade of mine, you ask? Two things activated the topic to theforefront of my usual ruminations. The first wasly recent pleasant surprise at hearing theexquisite epic “Court of the Crimson King”blaring from a seventh-floor Shoreland apart¬ment on a Saturday night. The second was areminder that there are still some (few?) bandsleft who are maintaining their unbroken string ofintegrity-conscious masterpieces well into theeighties: the slap in the face that I needed wasa new Rush album and tour.I think a lot of bands that have be¬come very successful like the taste ofthat (commercial success) stuff. Theydon’t want to do anything to risk losingthat, so they become stale and don’t doanything that’s new or exciting. We try todo it another way...—Alex Lifeson of Rush(Quoted in current Guitar Player)Canadian hard-Rock/art-Rock/power-trioRush have a long history of hard work andunaswerving integrity. Between 1974 and 1986,from their first self-titled LP Rush to their latestPower Windows, the group has found its audi¬ence expanding from a small, devout cultfollowing to mass-appreciation (platinum al¬bums and sold-out tours) with nary a sell-out.To my knowledge they have never had a "hitsingle,” nor extensive coverage or praise in therock mass-press. Those with minds vacantenough to turn to the Rolling Stone RecordGuide for their opinions on music will find theefforts of Rush (and even Pink Floyd, Yes, andE.L.P.) snidely snubbedIn fact, many of the group’s best-known andbest-loved songs have themes which directlychallenge the repugnant trends in popular mu¬ here. Common themes include: life in thenuclear age — its influences on human rela¬tionships, attitudes, or the human psyche ingeneral; social injustice; imperialism; assertingindividualism in a society which encouragesassimilation and conservative behavior; lamentfor the evils which monotonous and mate¬rialistic lifestyles drive people to, and so on. Infact, the latest album (Power Windows) hassongs dealing with each of these topics andmore; and this observation only scratches thesurface of the density and diversity of thisalbum in particular, and Rush’s music in gen¬eral.In every place with a nameThey play the same territorial game...Don’t feed the people but we feed themachinesCan’t really feel what internationalmeans...Better the pride that resides in a citizenof the worldThan the pride that divides when acolorful rag is unfurled"Territories”— Power Windows (1985)Imagine a man where it all beganA scientist pacing the floor in each nationAlways eager to exploreTo build the best big stickTo turn the winning trick —But this was something more...“Manhattan Project”— Power WindowsWe can walk our road togetherIf our goals are all the sameWe can run alone and freeNot Rush, Dill couiu om.sic toward commercialism, phony image mar¬keting, "mind” over "spirit” and sop .isticatedmachinery taking precedence ove. humanenergy and creativity.When David Gilmour was asked by an inter¬viewer (in Pink Floyd’s Live at Pompeii film)whether he worried that the sophisticated ma¬chinery the Floyd was (mistakenly) reputed touse at the time (1972) was getting out of hand,he replied simply: "either you’re controllingthem (the machines), or they’re controllingyou.” The true artist must fight to keep control:and can there be much doubt that luminarieslike Falco, ZZ Top, Thomas Dolby or DuranDuran have lost this fight?All this machinery making modern musicCan still be open-heartedNot so coldly chartedIt's really just a question of your honesty(Yea, your honesty!)One likes to believe in the freedom ofmusicBut glittering prizes and endless com¬promisesShatter the illusion of integrity...For the words of the profitsAre written on the studio wall;Concert hall —Echoes with the sounds... of salesmanOf salesman... Of salesman..."Spirit of Radio”— Permanent Waves (1980)While the quality of drummer Neil Peart’slyrics vary from song to song (Peart has beensole writer for the group for quite some timenow, having shared the job on occasion withbandmates Lee and Lifeson in the past), everyeffort is admirable. No songs about "wak(ing)me up before you go-go" or "let’s go crazy,let’s get nuts; let’s go crazy, let’s get nuts” If we pursue a different aimLet the truth of Love be lightedLet the love of Truth shine clearSensiblilityArmed with sense and libertyWith the Heart and Mind unitedIn a single perfect sphere"Cygnus: The Sphere(A Kind of Dream)”— HemispheresEnough of dwelling on lyrics, fine as theyare: for the name of Rush’s game is the musicitself. The band consists of Peart on drums andpercussion, Geddy Lee on bass, vocals andkeyboard instruments, and Alex Lifeson onguitars (lead, rhythm and acoustic). Peart iswell-known as one of the finest rock drummersof all time: this writer places only musicians ofthe caliber of Bill Bruford, Carl Palmer, GingerBaker and Nick Mason above him, though mostdrum aficionados would undoubtedly put Pearton their ten-best list. Lee’s bass playing haslifted him to an equivalent stature among Rockbassists, to the point where today he’s theWayne Gretsky of the bass guitar: most of hispotential peers or superiors, such as JohnEntwistle, Jack Bruce, Noel Redding, ChrisSquire and Greg Lake, are relatively inactive.Lee’s thundering bass is always crisp, well-arranged and well-integrated into the song, withlittle Bruce or Squire-like soloing. He opts forpowerful, pulsating, intricate rhythms in an agewhere the base guitar is all but inaudible orinane in most groups (can anyone really tellwhether Michael Anthony actually performed onVan Halen’s 1984 LP?) His vocal abilities arealso legendary: aside from calling his voicepowerful and distinctive, descriptions are futile— it must be heard to be appreciated. ThoughLee’s keyboard skills are not phenomenal, they are more than capable for their purpose inRush’s sound: as a melodic backdrop andcounterpoint to the guitars. The key instrumentsrarely dominate in a Rush song (incidentally,Lee does an impressive job playing both bassand keyboards in concert). Finally, Lifesonthough not so god-like at his instrument relativeto his bandmate’s statures — is an excellentguitarist, and usually places in the top five inGuitar Player’s annual poll. Lifeson is equallyproficient at all three guitar types (mentionedearlier), and his styles and moods change fromsong to song and album to album. On one songhe may sound like (the late, great) RandyRhoads; the next Allan Holdsworth; then DavidGilmour or Steve Howe. Each of these guit¬arists seems to have influenced Lifeson at onetime or another. In an article on him in theircurrent issue, Guitar Player compares his styleto people like U2’s The Edge and Andy Sum¬mers of the Police. However, Lifeson’s latestplaying on Power Windows reminds me morethan anyone else of (another late, great) JamesHoneyman Scott of the Pretenders. The guitarwork is heavy on wispy, intricate, heavily-melodic riffs, and away from loud, piercingchords and solos."The Big Money" is the album’s openingtrack: though about the ugly hydra of multi¬national/international capita! investment, thelyrics are rather obscure, petulant and uni¬nformative. The musicianship is better, but onthe whole the song is the weakest on the album— which is certainly consistent with the factthat it was the first single given airplay from thealbum.“Territories,” quoted from above, is an anti¬imperialism song, and basically a better-writtenversion of "The Big Money.” It takes a lot ofguts and confidence to write lines likeThe bosses get talking so toughAnd if that wasn’t evil enoughWe get the drunken and passionateprideOf the citizens along for the ride...Better the pride that residesIn a citizen of the worldThan the pride that dividesWhen a colorful rag is unfurled...,especially in the light of contemporary trendssuch as Ramboism/Reaganism, killing Nic¬araguans because they want the (outrageous!)right to eat, or “protecting” an "internationalwaterway” through the Gulf of a country withwhich the “protector” has no economic deal¬ings"Territories” is one of the better musicalpieces as well. It opens with an Oriental flavorcomplementing praise for the Chinese outlookon life, and shifts through intricate, well-arranged time/tempo changes. Don't botherlooking for this one on B-96, though..."Grand Designs,” also quoted from at length(above), is another of the album’s strongertracks, and its lyrics are quintessential Rush:the theme is similar to that of "Spirit of Radio,"and can stand as a great anti-MTV/Hit-Radioanthem ("Life in two dimensions is a massproduction scheme")."Marathon” belongs to Peart and especiallyLee, with an intricate and flawlessly executedbass-line His patterns are almost too intense tofollow, yet well arranged and avoiding flam¬boyant soloing Peart gives an impressiverepetoire of free style/time changes/tight pat¬terns a la Bruford. Lifeson takes a back-seathere, providing heavily-melodic rhythm back¬ground and lead guitar riffs at the hook, withonly minor soloing."Manhattan Project” is not a typical anti¬nuclear chiche, but it's far from brilliant. Itstheme, expressing particular aversion to scien¬tists "always eager to explore” regardless ofthe wisdom or morality of those who press themto, again maintains present-day relevance inthe light of Reagan’s effort to "turn the winningtrick” and shield us from the bomb — or atleast assuage our fears of it (same thing?). Themusic is good, but the heavy hook gives it thesame geared-for-airplay feel as "The BigMoney.”The final three tracks, "Middletown Dreams”“Emotion Detector” and "Mystic Rhythms” araa semi-trilogy thematically: human emotionsand insecurities in a society where the formerare discouraged and the latter preyed upon.The music in each is completely different,though: many of Lee’s best vocal performancesare on these tracks, especially "MiddletownDreams.” "Emotion Detector” is a pleasant,well-written, but relatively simple piece; "MysticRhythms" is very complex, with exquisite voc¬als, drums and guitar.Overall, Power Windows is a huge successfor Rush musically, and a consistent step in theevolution of their sound away from its raw butexciting feel in the Seventies to a more mel¬odic, restrained and crisply-arranged and pro¬duced sound in the Eighties. I would certainlynot argue that one of these "periods” is betterthan the other, though, and would be wary ofanyone who tried to All I can do is to exhort thereader to experience the group now, whilethey re active, exciting and dynamic, and not towait until the 1990’s — when, like most otherworthwhile Rock groups, they will becomenothing but a memory, a "teardrop in theocean” of “progress.”8—FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 1986—GREY CITY JOURNALjiff *THE CHICAGOMAROONIs currently accepting applicationsfor the following positions forthe 1986-87 academic year:JT i 1RESPONSIBILITIES:20 hours per week.Oversee day-to-day operationof advertising department.Supervise advertising representativesand production staff.BENEFITS:Gain experience in all aspects ofadvertising production andgeneral management.Base salary plus commissions.QUALIFICATIONS:Seeking a responsible, well-organized,self-motivated and hardworkingindividual.Supervisory experience a plus.2-year commitment greatly preferred.Ability to work summers also preferred.

APRIL 11, 1986 GREY CITY JOURNALMARCOS AT THE MOVIESby Frederick DolanMany Third World dictators are accordedcosmetic treatment by the U.S. government andits media assets, but Ferdinand E. Marcos,president of the Philippines until his recentremoval, provides an especially vivid exampleof how a creation of the United States can beput across as an independent leader — soeffectively, it would appear, that Marcos himselfcame to believe in his capacity for autonomousaction. When it comes to injecting moulderingcorpses with the appearance of life, the U.S.press rivals the Reanimator.Throughout his career, Marcos implementedpolicies designed by the United States and theinternational financial agencies it controls, verymuch to the detriment of the economy andsociety of the Philippines. This service earnedhim the coveted title of “friend” in U.S. politicalcommentary and State Department bureau-cratese. In 1972 Marcos assumed dictatorialpowers in order to crush a political movement,led by the urban business elite and such figuresas former CIA operative Benigno S. Aquino Jr.,which had gained control of the PhilippinesNational Assembly and seemed determined togo forward with a program for the industrial¬ization of the Philippines that ran counter toU.S. plans for its economic development.While Marcos harassed, jailed, tortured, andexiled the opposition, Western transnationalspurchased over two thirds of the country’scapital and succeeded in shifting the economytowards export-oriented production, immedi¬ately lowering the standard of living for mostFilipinos and leading to economic disaster asthe Western economy sunk into a deep reces¬sion. This in turn led to the growth of ruralarmed opposition, which the United States nowdesignates as the major “threat” — the Filipinoeconomy is so thoroughly controlled by West¬ern transnationals and financial institutions thatthere is no longer any way for the Filipinomiddle class to compete with the West in or outof power.There are, however, some problems.Marcos’s police state was set up to crushdissent among the urban middle and workingclasses, and the army has proved inept at ruralcounter-insurgency warfare. After failing toheed orders to allow the United States moreleeway in directing the killing of the Filipinoopposition (reported here as the U.S. desire for“modernization” of the military and the promo¬tion of more "vigorous” and “professional”officers) Marcos was replaced by what themedia called "People Power." The “new”rulers are in fact key figures in Marco’s politicaland military clique who were responsible fororganizing and carrying out the urban repres¬sion and who signalled their agreement to allowthe United States to escalate the rural war ifnecessary.Corazon Aquino has been cast as the Nap-olean Duarte of the Philippines. True to type,one of her first acts was an offer to “negotiate”with the National Democratic Front — on thecondition that the New People's Army firstdisarm, a ridiculous demand that elicited thehoped-for rejection, enabling the InternationalHerald Tribune to thunder that the “RebelsShow No Sign of Deal With Aquino.”Marcos's role in the Philippines was toimplement and enforce policies that helpedWestern economies and hurt Filipinos, and hispower, which derived from his utility to U.S.interests, evaporated as soon as he becameincapable of carrying out U.S. orders. So longas he retained power and used it in ways thatpleased his foreign sponsors, the media pre¬sented him as an independent leader, evenvoicing worries during his “ouster” that the not-so-discreet role of the United States violated itshistoric commitment to the self-determination ofnations. Marcos, ironically, did not hesitate todraw the same conclusion, accusing the UnitedStates of “imperialism” in its decision to retirehim.This comment — however accurate — sug¬gests that, over the years, Marcos had per¬suaded himself that he held real power in thePhilippines. Where power really lay was under¬scored by the fact that such announcements asthe news last year that Marcos was “gravelyill,” and even of his resignation, issued notfrom the Presidential Palace, but from the U.S.State Department.That Marcos was a puppet is something thatcannot be acknowledged in the mainstreammedia, for whom the Philippines is "Asia’sdemocratic showcase," in Newsweek's phrase.Instead we read, in the “news” columns of TheWashington Post, for example, that Our Leadercut off support for Marcos "in order to avoidbloodshed in the Philippines.” This, givenReagan’s bloodletting in El Salvador and Nic¬aragua, is as convincing as the claim that Nixonand his colleagues killed millions in Indochinain order to prevent the “bloodbath” they pre¬dicted the N.L.F. would unleash should theycome to power. Meanwhile, as the mediaponder the implications of "People Power,” theUnited States is laying the groundwork for ananticipated military campaign against peasantswho prefer other models of "development” tothose offered by the International MonetaryOrganization.The description of Marcos’s fall as an Amer¬ican-backed triumph of democracy reveals notonly the role of the media in concealing actualU S. policy, but their astonishing commitmentto what the French literary theorist Roland Barthes called "stupidity”: the conviction thattrotting out comforting stereotypes suffices todescribe an event.The underlying theme of this banality, per¬haps the Urbanality of the imperial metropolis,suggest the Hollywood Western, the World WarTwo movie, and the liberal reading of Water¬gate. As Umberto Eco has pointed out, thesegenres share a basic structure: in order toprotect some “value” an interdiction must berespected; the interdiction is violated and mis¬fortune results; a rescuer intervenes to defeatthe villain and restore the value. The Westernsheriff reestablishes law and order; the classicWorld War Two plot shows how the UnitedStates remedied its lack of vigilance by goingon to defeat the Japanese; the Watergate drama reveals how Nixon’s failure to protect thevalue of responsive government is heroicallyexposed by the press. Ignoring history, thepress chose to plot the demise of Marcosaccording to the imperatives of drama, sus¬pense, glory, and redemption: the UnitedStates values democratic allies who opposeCommunist expansion; Marcos became undemocratic but wangled continued U.S. supportby manipulating our fear of Communism; theUnited States redeems itself by ousting Marcosin favor of “People Power.”Suppressed in this endlessly reiterated pulpis a more prosaic narrative: the United Statessponsors puppets willing and able (with ourhelp) to implement U.S. policies in their coun¬tries; the politics have little to do with dem¬ ocracy and much to do with exploitation ofcheap labor and resources; and when spon¬sored leaders fail to deliver they are replaced.As a final example of re-animation we maynote the obsession over Marcos's vast personalwealth. The media were fond of explaining thePhilippines’ problems in terms of cronyism andcorruption because that gambit enables them toshift the blame for conditions that are tooblatant to ignore away from U.S. policy. In asimilar fashion, they now concentrate on theenormous wealth Marcos stockpiled as evi¬dence of his insatiable greed. They do not tellus how Marcos’s booty compares with thatplundered from the Philippines over the yearsby such entities as Dole, Del Monte, and UnitedFruit, for whom Marcos’s share representsnothing more than overhead. Marcos’s thieverysimply exemplifies what U.S. transnationals doto the Philippines as a matter of course.,%W. THERE’S NO ~t.—rrr nrLIKE NO BUSINESS ,vW/ M,by Jim CarsonProponents of Star Wars refer to it as “ThePeace Shield.” In fact, U.S. intentions in de¬veloping Star Wars are no more peaceful thanthose in deploying the MX nuclear missile: alsoknown as “The Peacekeeper”. Further, there isno essential difference between nuclear mis¬siles and the so-called Strategic Defense In¬itiative, an Orwellian misnomer of unspeakableproportions. Both are components in an overalldrive to war, and specifically to maximize U.S.capability to prevail in the aftermath of a U.S.decapitating nuclear first-strike attack on theSoviet Union.It is clear to many anti-war activists thatnuclear war preparations are based on thepremise of first-strike on both sides. The MX,Trident, Pershing II and cruise missiles have allbeen widely exposed as part of this dynamic:what good is a super-accurate, silo-bustingmissile if you don’t shoot it first? Given thatnothing has changed on that score, with theU.S. land-based nuclear missiles being in¬exorably deployed in Europe, the sea-basedTrident force rapidly increasing, and so on, canit be that Star Wars really introduces an entirelynew strategy on the part of the U.S.? Theanswer is no. A critique of Star Wars by nothingother than the Congressional Office of Tech¬nology Assessment put it like this: “...BallisticMissile Defense ends up being a better in¬vestment for the side that strikes first than forthe side that retaliates...The side striking firstuses its full arsenal in an organized penetrationof the other side’s defense; the retaliating sidecan only use its surviving arsenal in a possibledisorganized ‘ragged retaliation’ against aforewarned and fully prepared defense”. (1984) The Reagan Administration did not inventnuclear war, first-strike strategy, or Star Wars.What the Strategic Defense Initiative initiated(originally announced as such by Reagan inMarch, 1983) was the public promotion of“ballistic missile defense” as a military priority:many years of research, as well as the fun¬damental strategic decision to emphasize BMD,had taken place already. In other words, StarWars is not just some hare-brained and un¬workable scheme that leaked out of Reagan’sunconscious one day. The Joint Chiefs of Staffagreed on the SDI thrust prior to Reagan’sspeech, contrary to many who claim that onlyEdward Teller, Reagan, and a handful of othersknew about it beforehand. (Strategic Defense,Keith B. Payne, Hamilton Press, 1985) Thepoint is, we have to take Star Wars seriously:the U.S. government does. At the same time,opposing any particular administration is futile.We must go much farther to stop Star Wars andthe world nuclear war plans of which it is anintegral part.One initiative along these lines is the "NoBusiness As Usual ’86 — Focus: Star Wars!”campaign. The campaign will include 2 nationaldays of action, April 21 and October 20, as wellas intensive educational and organizing effortsthroughout. As the NBAU call for this effortsays, "The central fact is that Star Wars isbeing created for fighting a nuclear war, notpreventing one....The issue is not, and neverhas been, one of this or that weapons system.The issue is complicity versus responsibility, asopen preparations for nuclear world war in¬tensify, with Star Wars playing a centralrole....We will not play the role of “good Germans” who passively cooperated with theirgovernment”. April 21 will be a day of diverselocal actions and October 20 a day of concen¬trated regional actions. “Both days will focus onkey installations of the Star Wars program andwill deliberately disrupt and shut down, throughmass political action, as much as possible ofthe government’s flagship for war prepara¬tions.. Events of the real world have continuedto confirm the No Business As Usual slogan,and to demand heightened mass struggle tochange the course of events:They Won’t Listen to Reason,They Won’t Be Bound By Votes,The Governments Must Be Stopped fromLaunching World War III,No Matter What It Takes!The central action planned for the Chicagoarea will focus on the headquarters of Morton-Thiokol, a conglomerate that is heavily involvedin Star Wars and nuclear war preparations,including production of rocket motors for thespace shuttle and most U.S. nuclear missilesThe action will begin at 7:30 AM at Wacker andWashington on the morning of April 21 st. Asecond convergence will take place at noon atRandolph and State to announce findings ofadditional Star Wars facilities in the area, andproceed to locate and expose them. Thoseinterested in participating should contact theorganizers and begin to make plans with othersto come and Seal Off the Hazard Zone at 7:30!For more information, contact No Business AsUsual Action Network/PO Box A3510/Chicago/60690, 427-2536 (Rich), and come to a plan¬ning meeting Tues. 4/15, 7 PM at 407 S.Dearborn #370.»W. ,u,.,\ii,.
