No. 53 The University of Chicago ©Copyright 1986 Friday, May 23, 1986Ida Noyes renovation brings versatility and eleganceBy Karen E. AndersonDevelopment EditorThe University is trying toget as much as possible out ofthis space, and I think it reallyhas something going for it,” saidClaude Pagacz from the FredBerglund & Sons ConstructionCompany while discussing theIda Noyes renovation thisWednesday.Pagacz, who is supervising therenovation, said that the work is“going fine so far,” although hementioned that it is still difficultto predict whether or not the newcinema in Ida Noyes will becompleted by the projected lateOctober deadline.Ida FloatsWorkers struck water earlierin the renovation process, butPagacz said that they wereprepared for this complication.“We did soil samples, so weknew to expect water. After all,the University is really close to alake, so there's a high watertable,” Pagacz commented. Headded that pumps were workinground the clock during the pastfew weeks to get rid of the waterin the basement areas of the renovation, but that “the needfor pumping has passed.”Pagacz said that the construc¬tion crew is currently workingon the hardest part of the ren¬ovation, building the new MaxPaluvsky Cinema, which willprovide space for a number ofactivities, including DOC Films.The cinema is being constructedin what used to be the Ida NoyesGym. Showing off the skeletalbeginnings of the 500 seatcinema, Pagacz remarked. “It’shard to visualize right now, butwhen it’s finished, it’ll be a nicecinema. No, it’s not the kind ofplace you can put on a ballet or agrand play, but I think that thearchitect did a good job to makeit multifaceted, so that the Uni¬versity can use it for a lot ofthings.”DOC gets a new homeIrene Conley, director of Stu¬dent Activities, said she feelsthat the cinema will have awarm atmosphere since it willbe done in colors that reflect thebuilding's antique look. She saidthat the seats, which are beingcustom-made for the cinema,will be covered in a “rich mar- oony” cloth. Conley remarkedthat she hopes the new cinemawill provide a “movie experi¬ence" somewhat like the elegantold theaters in downtown Chic¬ago. for those who go to see DOCfilms in it next year. “What dopeople what when they see amovie? They want somethingspecial, and they want some¬thing to eat. We will provide bothin Ida Noyes next year...I fore¬see that Ida's Cafe will be openlater to accommodate the movie¬going crowd.” remarked Conley.Improvements for DOCGrafton Harper, chairpersonof DOC Films, agreed withConley. He said that PaluvskyCinema will provide a muchbetter atmosphere for DOC fans.“Now when you go to see amovie (at DOC) what do you doafterwards — sit on the stepsoutside? Our move to Ida Noyes(from Cobb Hall) will give peo¬ple something to do afterwards.We also hope that it will makeIda Noyes a more integratedpart of the University....Yes.we re losing our old home, butwe hope that our audience willfollow us.” BY CHRISTINE DYRUCHeavy equipment moves in for renovation.Agora will relocate in Hyde ParkBy Greg MantellAssociate EditorThe Agora will move into thespace currently occupied byHemingway's restaurant in theHyde Park Shopping Centerduring late June, the owner ofthose restaurants has an¬nounced.The decision comes a weekafter the owner, Dino Ale-xopoulos. learned that the Uni¬versity would not renew hislease for the Agora's present57th Street location. (See 5/16/86Maroon.)“The Agora shall live.” Ale-xopoulos asserted, saying thathe chose to “phase out” Hemi¬ngway's, which has been inbusiness over four years, insteadof the Agora because the Agorais “more popular and profit¬able.”When the Agora reopens“sometime in July, there will bea variety of improvements. Theer*>re place will be redecorated,we .uav add an outdoor patio,and we’ll have longer hours.”Alexopoulos is also consideringoffering a bus service to makeeating at the new Agora more accessible to students and fac¬ulty. “We’ll have to study it andsee whether it’s worth it.”“In appreciation of our cus¬tomers there will be a farewellparty at the Agora with com¬plimentary dessert and coffee,and there will be a welcomeparty at our new location withfree wine or other refreshmentson dates yet to be determined.”Alexopoulos said.In an effort to make sure thatmost employees will keep theirjobs. Alexopoulos plans to move“the biggest part" of the Agora'soperation to Hemingway's andthe remainder to Harper Square,another of his restaurants. TheHarper Square menu will bechanged to “a combination ofthe most popular items fromHarper Square and the Agora.”Hemingway's and the Agorawill close “in late June for a fewdays" so that the move can beaccomplished.Alexopoulos said he “mayopen an Agora North near DeP-aul" and is “considering openingother restaurants in HydePark.” The Agora, which has becomea campus landmark over theyears, was recently selected forthe third year in a row to repre¬sent Hyde Park in the Taste ofChicago Festival to be held thissummer. Harper cited the arrangementof Paluvsky as one of the mainimprovements for DOC. He saidthat Paluvsky has an enclosedprojection booth so that one willno longer be able to hear thebackground whir of the projectorduring films. The new theaterwill allow for five times the cur¬rent brightness of projection.Harper also said that the speak¬ers in Paluvsky are behind thescreen, which helps to add to theillusion that what you are view¬ing is really taking place. "Thesound will be much better withthe speakers in back of thescreen. When Robert Redfordmoves his lips, it will sound likeit's coming from his lips.”DOC will also have a numberof new projectors to use in the new facility. Harper said that acertain anonymous gentlemanhas made a “philanthropic do¬nation” of a 35mm projector toDOC. DOC has also purchased anumber of 16mm projectors.Harper stated that the 35mmprojector will be important forbig events. “We can use the35mm on occasion for specialshows. Our projection will nowbe the most advanced on cam¬pus. We'll have a brighter, moresturdy image — it will be in¬credible compared to this year."Harper also said that the screenwill be five times the size of thecurrent one."Harper said that he wished tostress that DOC is. above all. aservice organization for thecontinued on page sixCASH documents results of surveyPHOTO BY TIM HANSENLast year’sSummer Breeze drew over 1,000 students. See storyon page 3 for details about this year’s festival. By Odilon CouzinStaff WriterThe results of the CommitteeAgainst Sexual Harassmentsurvey, distributed to studentmail folders this quarter, havebeen compiled by the com¬mittee.The committee distributed thesurvey in order to “collect in¬formation” about the nature andextent of sexual harassment, aterm defined in the survey, inthe University community.The survey asked studentswhether they or anyone theyknow had been harassed, thenature of the harassment, howthey responded to it. the effectsof their reactions, and the effectof the whole process on thevictim.CASH reports that 8.500 sur¬veys were sent out. Of these. 305were returned. Fifty-one re¬spondents said that they hadbeen sexually harassed, seventysaid that they knew others whohad been harassed, and onehundred and eighty three saidthat they had not been harassedand knew no-one who had beenharassed.The committee has concludedfrom the survey results that a“significant” amount of sexualharassment has occured withinthe University community. Ac¬cording to the committee, theharassment came from a widevariety of sources includingfaculty members, housing staff,administrators, teaching assist¬ants, bosses, and fellow stu¬dents. The types of harassmentreported on surveys ranged fromverbal harassment to rape. Specific examples reportedinclude the following:1. In the Medical School andUniversity hospital system, twodetailed instances of sexualharassment were reported. Onecase was a medical student whoreported “persistant and of¬fensive" verbal sexual harass¬ment by male Residents withwhom she was forced to work inthe Medical School.2. Of the 51 people that had beenharassed. 17 of them claimed tohave been harassed by facultymembers, four by teaching as¬sistants, and four by members ofthe administration. One womanclaimed that “He (the professorilowered my grade because peo¬ple “knew' about ‘us .”3. 42 of the 51 people reportedthat they had been harassed byfellow students. 26 of whom werefellow dormitory residents.CASH spokesperson SheilaRalston commented that “anyand all harassment from facultyhas to be considered as impair¬ing access to the educational in¬stitution.” Ralston also appliedthe same standards to harass¬ment by fellow students, sayingthat all harassment is capable of“seriously upsetting the person'semotional w'ell-being.”Students' emotional responsesto sexual harassment consistedmainly of feelings of anger,guilt, fright, and power less ness.However. 24 of the 51 harassedpeople reported that they “feltlike quitting the job, leaving thedorm, or dropping a course”because of sexual harassment.Some students even reportedhaving had nightmares or want¬ ing to leave school due to har¬assment.According to the survey re¬sults. victims of sexual harass¬ment tended to deal with theincident in a variety of ways, butonly 8 of 51 followed the Univer¬sity's suggestions for what to do.16 people told their friends and24 victims “tried to handle if’themselves.Of the 8 cases that were de¬scribed in detail by students. 5were reported to some Univer¬sity authority and resulted in noeffective action. The most dra¬matic incident of this type wasone woman who was told by aDean of Students that the in¬cident had not occurred and wasthreatened with disciplinary ac¬tion.These statistics “showed veryoften a lack of confidence in theUniversity’s willingness or abi¬lity to do anything about theharassment.” said Ralston. Sheadded that oftentimes “peopledidn't see their cases as being“serious" enough to be taken tothe administration and that thiscould be due to an inadequateUniversity policy on sexualharassment.Ralston sees the University'ssystem of preventing sexualharassment as virtually non¬functional. Currently, the Uni¬versity does not have any form¬ally stated definition of sexualharassment.“We are interested in workingwith the University to maketheir policies more accessible tostudents and more effective inpreventing sexual harassment.”UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGODean of Students in the Collegecordially invites youto theTHIRTIETH ANNUALHONORS AWARDS ASSEMBLYThursday, May 29,1986Cloister ClubIda Noyes Hall4:00 P.M.

Volleyball equip¬ment will be available for use by anyone.Softball teams were organized with stu¬dents nominated by the CSA. Sonia Jac¬obson, assistant dean of students, workedto organize the faculty team. Due to thefaculty male-female ratio, there will be twokinds of teams for the students and thefaculty: one all-male and one co-ed. Eachkind of team will play one game.Hamburgers, hot dogs, and chicken willbe served in front of Kent from 4-7 p.m.According to Sue Wrobel, on of the organ¬izers of Summer Breeze, a small chargewill be placed on the food “so that we canminimize the waste of food.” In front ofStuart Hall, bands will play during the lateafternoon and early evening.Fifteen bands auditioned, however, onlythree or four were chosen to play. Some of the bands which were not picked will perform as part of the “Thank God It’s Fri¬day” concerts in the Hutchinson Court. Thefirst one played last Wednesday becausePresident Gray’s office did not grant per¬mission for Friday of that week. Two moreconcerts are following, one today (Friday)and one next Friday. Starting at around 4p.m., they will provide the audience withfree music and food.Sunny Daze, an IHC sponsored event,will take place at the same time asSummer Breeze along the sidewalks in themiddle of the Quads. The houses of thedorms will set up different booths. Therewill be a cotton-candy machine, a popcornmachine, a dunk tank, and other games.Tickets will be sold for food, rides, andgames in order to eliminate the hassle ofhandling money. At the end of the dayprizes, such as a VCR and $100, will beauctioned.The day will conclude with the SummerBreeze Dance, for which a live band,Nicholas Tremulis, will perform in the areabetween Eckhart and Ryerson.The CSA received a grant of approxi¬mately $7,500 from the Quality of LifeCommittee for the events, and CSA did theplanning.Chemistry Dept, wins grantBv Geoff PotterStaff WriterUsing a $2 million grant from the Inter¬national Business Machines Corporation,the University of Chicago Chemistry De¬partment and James Franck Institute willinstitute a program for the research ofpolymers. The U of C is one of 12 uni¬versities nationwide to receive a grantfrom IBM. and one of seven receivinggrants specifically for polymer research.The grant, $1 million in equipment and $1million cash distributed over five years,will be used to equip laboratories and topay the salaries of two new faculty mem¬bers, according to Karl Freed, Director ofthe James Franck Institute and Professorof Chemistry.Polymers are chemical compounds con¬sisting of linked identical molecules andare common both in biology and in in¬ dustry. Plastics and synthetic fabrics suchas nylon and rayon are the best knownexamples of artifically synthesized poly¬mers industrially; numbered among bio¬logical polymers are proteins and starches.“Polymers are very, very important inboth biology and industry, and that's whyvirtually no research has been done onthem in major American universities,”Professor Freed says with tongue in cheek.While some of the top researchers in othercountries are conducting polymer re¬search, only engineering schools in theUnited States are heavily involved. Purescientists have been “avoiding it like theplague,” according to Freed.“Polymers present challenging scientificproblems, but in an area that has beenneglected in this country,” Freed says. “Itis a credit to IBM that they have seen aproblem with the nation and have takensteps to address it.” 3,800 stolen books returnedBv Matt NickersonStaff WriterAbout 3800 books taken from the U of C'slibraries were returned anonymously April2 to Regenstein Library, according to Pa¬tricia Wilcoxen, Head of Circulation Ser¬vices for the University Libraries.Ray Busch, a U of C lawyer, said hereceived a phone call about four or fiveweeks ago (he declined to give a specificdate) from a lawyer representing a clientwho had acquired some University ofChicago library books. The lawyer said hisclient would return the books if generalconfidentiality was maintained.Busch accepted the lawyer's offer. “I feltit was in the best interest of the Universityto get the books back given the largenumber of books,” he said.Because of the nature of the deal struck,Busch and Wilcoxen would not divulge anv details about the return of the books. How¬ever, Busch did say, “I inferred that thepeople who had the books were not thepeople who took them.”Under the past library overdue book finesystem, about $19000 would have been owedfor the books.Essay ContestAn essay contest is being sponsored bythe Phi Beta Kappa Association of theChicago area. All undergraduates at theUniversity are invited to write an essay onthe subject ”The Future of AmericanCities.” The essay should be 7-10 type¬written pages (1750-2000 words) in length,and must be submitted to Gates-Blake 129on or before July 1, 1986. The winner of thecontest will receive a $500 cash prize.v/V i ry <>f ch i c A <x>FfelWY NA'X 2 >mw GSMSGfi):truKm # i.oombbse:lfcf*KNATK>MLHC>V)te t\4|4 4.5T?*<S> * 1 9irl 1||| [ \'viS hf- SC Activities Committee Presents:TheICE CREAMSTUDY BREAKMAKE YOUR OWN SUNDAES (WOW!)LIVE BAND featuring: ON CALLGET FAT THEN GET DOWNFREEFREEW/UCID Wednesday, May 28Hutch Court9-12 pm(rain-Reynolds Club)SCFC FundedThe Chicago Maroon—Friday. May 23, 1986—3The Chicago MaroonStudent Newspaper of the University of ChicagoVIEWPOINTKavanagh comments onGCJ "Fortress" articleBy Larry KavanaghEditor-in-chiefThere is a policy at the Maroon that onesection of the paper does not comment onmaterial which appeared in another sec¬tion. Thus a note from the editor-in-chief onan article published in the Grey CityJournal really belongs in that section.However, due to the strong reaction fromseveral news section readers, I have deci¬ded to print my comments on the GCJarticle entitled "A Fortress Invites Attack”here.The article, printed on May 9th. dealtwith rape in Hyde Park. The writers attri¬buted that crime to “assertion of domi¬nance over the victim.” Further theyclaimed, “Only a person who had beendenied access to conventional means ofasserting power and dominance (withmoney or social recognition) would resortto asserting themselves in this most sadi¬stic and brutal way.” The argument con¬tinued that the University should try tointegrate itself with the surroundingcommunities in an attempt to remedy thesocial injustices which rapes illustrate. Thearticle concluded with a list of nine sug¬gestions to the University.“A Fortress Invites Attack” expressedonly the opinions of the authors. StephanieBacon and Gideon D'Arcangelo. It was notan editorial statement by the Maroon or theGCJ staff. The Grey City is a group ofabout 25 writers who submit articles whichreflect their own opinion. What follows isalso an opinion.Bacon and D'Arcangelo are probablycorrect when they state that most crime isa manifestation of a social problem. TheUniversity's policy of cutting itself off from the surrounding communities may even“exacerbate” social problems. Prejudice isa social problem which limits theachievements of many groups of people. Itis easy to see that a frustrated people willeventually turn to violence.However, I fail to see how the nine“steps” Bacon and D’Arcangelo advocatewill solve or even reduce the frustrationthey are writing about. They suggest thatthe University create a Black Studies De¬partment, a Minority Student/CommunityCenter, a Women’s Studies Department, aWomen’s Center, and that the University“stop preaching a doctrine of fear andmistrust to incoming students.” Thewriters also call for divestment from SouthAfrica. These may be worthy goals, butthey do not address the problems of thesurrounding community.They do suggest that low-to-moderateincome housing be provided, that outreachprograms be prioritized and that campussecurity end its harassment of students andmembers of the community. While theseare aimed at the areas around Hyde Park,I don’t believe that implementing themwould even touch the frustration describedby the authors.The causes which Bacon andD'Arcangelo champion certainly havemerit. I am disturbed, however, becausethe article used a recent tragedy, the sex¬ual assault of two women, to promote thosecauses. The authors carefully identified afrustration in the neighborhoods outside theUniversity, but choose to graft causes theybelieved onto their article rather than pro¬pose solutions to the frustration.For a more complete discussion of theseissues please turn to the Grey City letterssection.W/w &m&featar€& area ’tju/i?Come write for usSee Steve or Ingrid Fridays 1 -4 p.m.The Chicago MaroonThe Chicago Maroon is the official student newspaper of the University ofChicago.

In Ida Noyes theater:“Great movie, huh?” “Yeah, real deep...”LETTERSSleepout shafted by officialTo the Editor:Although nothing can be done about theway in which the “Pre-Registration Camp-out” was run this year, we feel that there isan immediate need to restructure the wayin which it will be handled next year.Upon our arrival at 1 pm Sat. May 10,“The Second Tuesday Club (STC)®” noti¬fied University Security that studentswould be camping-out both Sat. and Sun.nights, contacted the Physical Plant toinsure that the sprinklers would not beturned on over the weekend, acquired extragarbage cans to help keep Harper Quadsclean, and, most importantly, started a list,which included NAME, ADVISOR, UCIDNUMBER, and TIME of arrival. By thetime there were fifty students on our list, itbecame apparent that a number of thestudents on the list did not intend to camp-out Saturday night; instead, they plannedon returning Sunday evening when theAdministration was due to arrive. Seeingthis as unjust, we decided to call a meetingof everyone present to produce a demo¬cratic solution to the problem. It was deci¬ded that roll would be called at no intervalshorter than four hours, upon request. Ifsomeone who appeared on the list was notpresent, their name was not removed fromthe list, but rather amended to the bottomof the list. Student ID’s were checked toinsure that students would only sign up forthemselves, thus preventing such problemsas one student signing up ten, or the addi¬tions of Imelda Marcos and Jesus Christ tothe list.When roll was called at 8 a m. Sundaymorning, eighty-three students were pre¬sent and were informed that the next roll would not be called until noon, as set forthby the agreed upon solution.At some point prior to 10 a m. Sunday,four students contacted an administrationofficial to complain about the handling ofthe list. That official, in an attempt torectify the problem, arrived on HarperQuads around 10 a.m. and without anydiscussion demanded an immediate roll.Upon noticing crossed off names on the listthis official declared the old list null andvoid, requesting all the students present toline up and sign his new “Official” list.After some pleading he agreed to use theold list to call a roll and create his new“Official” list. However, many studentshad left planning not to return until noon,and subsequently their names were elimi¬nated from the list (of the ninety names onthe old list, only thirty appeared on the new“Official” list). It was then announced thatthe next roll would not be called again until6 p.m. or later. At 8 p.m. roll was calledand the students were told that the next rollwould be 6 a.m. Monday morning at whichtime numbers would be given out.We feel that the administration shouldhave been more willing to discuss pro¬cedure with students and hear what theyhad to say, in order to reach a viablecompromise before taking complete anduncompromising control. Further, it is ourhope that the administration will contactand talk with students in the future, ratherthan omnisciently deciding protocol. In thisway, we believe that a just and effectivesystem of handling pre-registration can bereached.Brentley G. BrownBen A.

BlockStaff WriterThe number of security police cars whichpatrol the Midway after dark has beenincreased since two female students wereassaulted in early May.According to Mark Graham, director ofthe Security department, the department is‘looking into” the possibility of installingwhile security phones on the Midway, inaddition to raising security coverage be¬tween 59th and 61st Streets. He was hopefulthat the more frequent patrols wouldprevent any similar occurences in the fu¬ture.Jonathan Kleinbard. vice president forUniversity News and Community Affairs,however, stated that it is "unlikely” thatwhite phones will be put on the Midwaysince they are already installed on 59th and61st Streets where there is more pedestriantraffic. He said, speaking for the adminis¬tration, "We’re trying to inform peopleabout what they should do when going outat night, and encourage use of the umbrella service, which is always available.”One of the attackers involved in theMidway incident, Donald Reynolds, 20, hasbeen arrested by police and identified bythe two victims. Reynolds was chargedwith aggrevated assault and bail was setfor him at $50,000.The other two suspects have not beenfound, but police are working very activelyon the case, according to Robert Mason,Southeast Chicago Commission law en¬forcement coordinator. He said that theyhave questioned many people and that theyhave obtained some leads in the in¬vestigation since Reynolds was arrested.Although criminal assaults of this typeare infrequent on campus (this was thefirst reported incident of this kind thisyear), the administration and the securitydepartment have strongly encouragedpeople to exercise caution when going outat night. Graham recommends traveling ingroups of three or more, walking on well-litstreets, and using the umbrella service.International U of C Day planned by Alumni Officeyou to think for yourself and to question be there, because in a life outside of Theeverything.” • Life of the Mind, even if the food isn’tInformation will be distributed to each .student at the beginning of June. Try and always free, the fun is.by Stephan Lau"Features EditorIs there life after the University of Chic¬ago? Many graduating seniors and under¬classmen wonder that almost every day ofthe year. On Sunday, July 27th this ques¬tion and many others can be answered byalumni in thirty-one different cities on In¬ternational University of Chicago Day.“The idea of a U of C day was initiatedby the Student Relations Committee twoyears ago,” said National Program Direc¬tor Bette Arnett, “and the idea was to getstudents together in the alumni and stu¬dent’s hometowns. Around 1800 current andincoming students along with alumni andfaculty participated.”Of the cities involved, twenty-seven arein the United States with the other fourlocated in London, Montreal. Tokyo, andToronto. Graduating Senior Frank Connollyremembered his U of C Day in WashingtonD.C. "As to what happened, nothing really,not anything formal. There was a lot ofreminiscing, a sharing of common experi¬ences. They’d ask what had been changed.We’d tell stories, they’d tell us stories, just because we share this common experi¬ence.”"People joked about the social life. It’s avery common experience among alumniand students. I guess it’s always been thatway.”At the Atlanta U of C Day last year,Alumni Fundraiser Kathy Robeschaudremembered, "we picnicked and playedtrivia games. About thirty or thirty-fivepeople came. The alumni that come justcome to enjoy each others company,there’s nothing artificial about it. It’s notan emotional rah-rah kind of thing. Thereare a lot of different types of people there.University of Chicago types.”Minneapolis-St. Paul organizer SusanWalkerstorfer also characterized Chicagoalumnus as "not average alumnus. Theytend to look at certain alumni functionswith a little distrust at the outset. I’ve beento alumni functions of other schools thatsuggest to me that maybe there’s a spirit ofindividualism at Chicago, a healthy skep¬ticism of institutions that can work againstthe alumni office sometimes. Maybe its allthose years of the Common Core that force Ida Noyescontinued from page oneUniversity. He said that DOC realizes thatthe construction will "make the biggestbuilding on campus useless for (large)events” but that the University decided todo the renovation, so DOC is going to"make the best of it.” Harper added thatDOC did help to fund the Spring Formalsince its move to the new cinema hasdisplaced the event, which was tradition¬ally held in the Ida Noyes Gym. Harpersaid that since DOC has been operating ata profit this year, the organization is tryingto put some of the money back into theUniversity."Business as usual” is how Harper de¬scribes DOC’s plans for next fall. He stated that DOC will show films in Cobb, if neces¬sary. until the new cinema is completed.DOC will not raise ticket prices, and plansto continue with its present format forshowing films. Harper said that DOC'smain office will be moved to Ida Noyes,although the film archives will remain inCobb.He also said that DOC is currentlynegotiating with the University to keepsome space in Cobb for viewing rooms sothat DOC can continue to be a source forpeople to take films classes or simply enjoywatching films in their spare time. “We’resimply trying to put on a better show,”concluded Harper.ATTENTIONU of C Graduating Seniorsoikfit gtaduales temaining in Clucoga flowIMkmiew and tl«c U o| 9 m evening elCELEBRATION!!!WEDNESDAY, MAY 28The Metropolitan Club - Sears Tower, 67th Floor4:30 P.M.-?Sponsored by the Chicago Jewish FederationCOPIESand that’s no hull!Firt Floor of the Bookstore* buildingm COPYCENTERA ,In Mull lit Tin t mw r»m ul ( liii.iun I’rintin^ I Vp.irtnn.ni6—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, May 23, 1986 InlYDE PARK ipCOMPUTERS INC.Epson Equity I ComputerandEpson LX-80 PrinterTogether-Only *1399Price Breakthrough!Equity Completely IBM compatible with two diskdrives, 256K Ram, high resolution mono/graphics tiltand swivel monitor plus printer port, communicationsport, MS, DOS, GW Basic and Xtree software.LX-80: Dual speed dot matrix printer with superbnear letter quality.

Acourse may have one instructor orseveral, and the format may vary froma one-, two-, or three-day seminar to afive- to ten-session course meeting onceper week.The StudentsAdult students come to The Universityof Chicago because they are interestedin serious study at the university level.Most hold at least a bachelors degree,and many have also earned advancedacademic or professional degrees.Because these students are motivatedby a real interest in the subject matterrather than the pursuit of credit ordegrees, their dedication to learningand their appreciation of good teachingis most sincere.The TeachersThose who teach in UOCE’s LiberalEducation Division are current facultymembers, emeritus faculty, professionalstaff, Ph.D., M.F.A., J.D., M.D., orM.B.A. candidates, and those who haverecently completed these advanceddegrees at the University.The BenefitsFor the Ph.D., M.F.A., J.D., M.D., orM.B.A. candidate or recent graduate,the program provides financialcompensation and the opportunity togain valuable teaching experience atThe University of Chicago. Theseadvanced degree candidates alsobenefit from supervised curriculumdesign experience. Further, anintegrated program of academicprofessional development forums andworkshops that focus on college and university teaching are available free ofcharge to those teaching with UOCE.For each advanced degree candidate, afile is kept which traces the superviseddevelopment of the initial proposal intoan effective curriculum. Students'reviews of the course are also kept onfile. The teaching file provides a goodbasis for assessment of teachingcapabilities and recommendations fromthe Division Director. The file is alsoopen to relevant department chairmenand dissertation supervisors.Note: Ph.D. candidates in research oradvanced residency who are notreceiving aid from sources other thanThe University of Chicago and whoearn more than 5500 for teaching w ithUOCE in a given quarter can qualifyfor university tuition remission whenteaching with UOCE and participatingin UOCE's academic professionaldevelopment activities.For faculty members and researchers,the Open Programs provide an excellent opportunity to presentcurrent work to a sophisticated groupof adults. Whether the offering isdirected to a particular professionalaudience or to a more diverse group,the level of discussion and thepertinence of questions asked help theinstructor to refine thoughts for anarticle or book or refresh perspectivesfor further inquiry. Also, facultymembers and researchers who teachfor UOCE receive extra servicecompensation.ProposalsTo be considered for teaching in theUniversity’s Open Programs.

Eastern Carolina pro¬fessor Elbert Glover announcedthat 22 percent of the nation’smale college students either dipor chew tobacco. Glover andthree associates asked 5,500students nationwide about theirtobacco habits, also finding that2 percent of the females sur¬veyed said they used smokelesstobacco.The New England BaseballAssociation asked its memberschools to ban all tobacco sub¬stances during games and prac¬tices. At the same time, theAmerican Cancer Society en¬dorsed a resolution to ban allcigarette and smokeless tobaccoads, especially those directed atyoung people. The group wantsto extend a new ban on smoke¬less tobacco advertising on elec¬tric media to print media aswell. Addressing the AmericanCancer Society in DaytonaBeach, Surgeon General C.Everett Koop released a reportfinding that long time smokelesstobacco users are 50 times morelikely to get cheek or gum can¬cer than nonusers.“I am very alarmed at thehigh rate” of student use of thesubstances, said Molly Laflin ofBowling Green State University.Laflin, who assisted Glover inthe nationwide survey, adds thatdipping tobacco is far morepopular than chewing it. Smoke¬less tobacco has become morepopular on campus, she believes,because commercials suggest it is safe, an impression furtherpromoted by the number of seemingly healthy athletes who use it.‘‘You look at the World Series,and you see the players doingit,” Laflin says.Still other preliminary datareleased at the same time in¬dicates that quitting a smokelesstobacco habit may be far moredifficult than giving up smoking.In a separate study, Glover at¬tempted to get 41 students at anunnamed Christian college toquit smokeless tobacco. ‘‘Theycertainly had incentive to quit,”he adds, because the schoolthreatened to expel them if theyfailed. Glover found their with¬drawal symptoms were similarto smokers’, ‘‘but more intense.”None could quit. Only one stu¬dent managed to go more thanfour hours without dipping orchewing, and he used nicotinegum, Glover reports. The samequit tobacco course has a 38percent success rate amongsmokers.In his study of students’ tob¬acco consumption, Glover foundthat 23 percent of the smokerswho started puffing before age10 were still smoking in college.61 percent of those who beganusing smokeless tobacco beforethey were age 10 were still ad¬dicted by the time they go tocollege.Glover also found that campususe of smokeless tobacco alsovaries by region. The rate washighest, 28 percent, at south¬western campuses and lowest, 15percent, at northeastern col¬leges.B ATES COLLEGE STUDENTSTOUR NEAR CHERNOBYLACCIDENTSixteen touring Bates Collegestudents were in Kiev when theChernobyl nuclear power plant60 miles to the north caught fire,spewing radioactive materialsinto the atmosphere.The students were still unableto leave Kiev five days after the accident, but Prof. Karen Black,who chaperoned the students,said by phone from Kiev thegroup had suffered only minorinconveniences, and planned tofinish its tour of the USSR.“You’d never know anythingwas wrong,” Black said. “TheIntourist guide told us Kiev itselfBLOOM COUNTY was in no danger.”STUDENTS TOURING RUSSI ASHOW NO SIGNS OFRADIATION POISONINGMichigan high school andBates College students mostlytested negative upon beingscanned for radiation exposure after they were evacuated fromthe Soviet Union in the wake ofthe nuclear power accident atChernobyl.A group from Western Mich¬igan U. was also in the countryat the time, but did not cut itsvisit short after the accident.by Berke BreathedinmwevEmejvsr/mremmOF YOU, HR MM~ fiBtmON.

The purpose of thecommittee is threefold: 1) to educate the Uni¬versity community about sexual harassment, 2)to thereby prevent sexual harassment andcreate a more comfortable University environ¬ment to work and live in, and 3) to have theUniversity administration adopt stronger, moreeffective, and accessible policies in cases ofsexual harassment (this includes defining sex¬ual harassment in the student handbook). Thecommittee hopes to address two areas ofsexual harassment: harassment from faculty,administrators, and other employees of theUniversity, as opposed to harassment betweenstudents, both of which are equally rep¬rehensible. Finally, CASH aims to break thetaboo of secrecy and silence which surroundsthe issue of sexual harassment and often forcesvictims to blame themselves for another per¬son’s criminal actions. This article will discussthe goals and strategies of CASH, the theore¬tical and practical issues of sexual harassment,and some legal and social history of the fightagainst harassment.Sexual harassment in its stronger forms is anillegal form of sex-discrimination, prohibitedunder a 1980 amendment of Title 7 of the civilrights act of 1964. The amendment states:Harassment on the basis of sex is aviolation of Sec. 703 of Title 7. Un¬welcome sexual advances, requests forsexual favors, and other verbal orphysical conduct of a sexual natureconstitute sexual harassment when (1)submission to such conduct is madeeither explicitly or implicitly a term orcondition of an individual’s employment(2) submission to or rejection of suchconduct by an individual is used as thebasis for employment decisions affectingsuch individual, or (3) such conduct hasthe purpose or effect of unreasonablyinterfering with an individual's work per¬formance or creating an intimidating,hostile, or offensive working environ¬ment.1While the focus of this legislation is employ¬ment, it clearly establishes the seriousness ofharassment and specifies the invidious natureof harassment in creating an intimidating, hos¬tile, and offensive work or living environment.There are also various state legislation whichestablish the illegality of sexual harassment,such as Michigan Public Act 202, which clearlystates, “discrimination because of sex includessexual harassment," and that:such conduct or communication hasthe purpose or effect of substantiallyinterfering with an individual’s employ¬ment, public accommodation or publicservices, education, or housing, or cre¬ating an intimidating, hostile, or offensiveemployment, public accommodation,public services, educational or housingenvironment.2It is important to note that the principlesunderlying this type of legislation also apply torace, color, religion, or'n3Tronal origin, and stemfrom the famous Supreme Court case of Brownvs. Board of Education. The court ruled thatsegregation of schools was illegal because itdenied equal access to education on the basisof race; sexual harassment is a form of illegaldiscrimination when it impairs a person’s ac¬ademic or job performance, or denies a per¬son’s access to housing or education. Fur¬thermore, just as victims of racial discriminationmust identify themselves as victims, and rec¬ognize that the problem is not with themselvesbut with the institution or people they aredealing with, the same is true for victims ofsexual harassment.After reviewing legal definitions of sexualharassment, CASH chose to begin its own workby finding an adequate definition of sexualharassment. The definition we finally chose is aslight modification of the definition used in theUC Berkeley student handbook, and was usedfor five major reasons.1) Because it recognizes and defines theillegal status of sexual harassment as a form ofsex discrimination:Sexual harassment is a form of sexual dis¬crimination which includes but is not limited toinstances in which a person who is in a positionof institutional authority (e g. professor, admin¬istrator, teaching assistant, housing staffmember, or other employee of the University).but 2) also recognizes that harmful harass¬ ment occurs between students:or a fellow student or co-worker, who is ableto control or affect another person s academiccareer, job, or emotional well-being, subjectsanother person to unwanted sexual attention,coerces her/him into sexual activity, and/orpunishes his/her refusal,and 3) in keeping with the University’s recentinclusion of “sexual orientation” in the non¬discrimination clause, that sexual harassmentbased on a person’s sexual orientation is also aform of sex discrimination:Sexual harassment also includes any threator intimidation, verbal and/or physical, basedon a person's sexual orientation.Finally, 4) and 5) sexual harassment can beverbal or physical and has a wide range ofmanifestations:Sexual harassment is manifested verbally(which includes but is not limited to sexistremarks, propositions, innuendos, and/or subtlepressure for sexual activity), and/or physically(which includes but is not limited to touching,patting, pinching, brushing against another’sbody, subtle pressure for sexual activity,physical assault, rape.(In italics, above, is the complete definition ofsexual harassment used by CASH.)Defining sexual harassment was a logicalstarting point for CASH because it enables usto concretely discuss the issue. CASH is notvery interested in discussing theoretical pos¬sibilities of harassment, but in confronting in-cidentg we know people have experienced, andthe point of the definition is to acknowledge themany forms harassment can take without defi¬nitely defining harassment to exclude potenti¬ally serious incidents (“sexual harass¬ment...includes but is not limited to”). WhileCASH realizes there is no absolute definition ofharassment, we feel that defining harassmentenables people to discuss the issue more fullyand clearly. There is, admittedly, a necessarylevel of subjectivity in defining sexual harass¬ment: “whether a particular experience is seenas innocuous and tolerable, offensive, orthreatening may depend in part on the victim—and perhaps on the person exhibiting thebehaviour.”3 The point of the definition is not toprohibit innocuous behaviour, but to allow pro¬test of threatening or offensive behaviour.(It is important to realize that offensive beh¬aviour is not generic, but directed at an in¬dividual, i.e. behaviour intended to directlyoffend someone else. Similarly, sexist remarksor pornographic material would only constituteharassment if they were directed at an individual with threatening, intimidating, or of¬fending intention. Consider a woman who con¬tinually discovers pornographic material left onher desk by a fellow office worker to insult her,or a gay man who persistently finds anti-gayeditorials and literature left under his door inthe dorm. The same principle applies in tryingto interpret any behaviour which could or could not be harassment.)After defining harassment CASH decided themost effective means of achieving it goalswould be to conduct a University-wide survey.There is a strong historical precedent for usinga survey to generate discussion of harassment,to assess people's attitudes about harassment,to informally document the extent of harass¬ment as a problem, and to serve as an aid inreformulating University policy. In 1980 the U.S.Office of Merit Systems Review and Studiesbegan a study of harassment in the federalworkplace by surveying over 23.000 civil ser¬vice employees. In the final report the authorsstate:Of primary concern in developing thestudy was the desire to develop a scien¬tifically valid survey instrument thatwould determine whether sexual har¬assment was a problem in the Federalworkplace., we wanted to gather infor¬mation that would permit examination ofthe major views about sexual harass¬ment in order to make appropriate poli¬cy recommendations.4Likewise, in Stopping Sexual Harassment, Eli-ssa Clark suggests that “a good first step forgroups interested in taking on the issue is todocument evidence of sexual harassment.Documentation can convince skeptics that aproblem exists.”5 One major purpose of thesurvey is to establish the validity of harassmentas a problem (it is beyond the scope of thisarticle to discuss the results of the survey, butthey will appear in the Maroon this quarter).People familiar or interested in the literature onsexual harassment and movements on cam¬puses around the country will note that almostevery major discussion of sexual harassment inthe workplace or academia begins with asurvey. CASH is only one of many groupswhich have formed on campuses across thecountry to deal with the increasingly recognizedproblem of sexual harassment, and most ofCASH'S work reflects a familiarity with howother campuses have responded to the issue.In The Lecherous Professor, an excellentsource for dealing with sexual harassment oncampus, the authors Dzeich and Weiner pro¬pose a simple and powerful strategy for pre¬venting sexual harassment. To begin, “theadministrative officers of the college or Univer¬sity must lend their authority to an unequivocalcondemnation of sexual harassment.”6 There isstatistical evidence from other Universities (U.of Washington, 1980; MIT, 1979), that whenadministrators publicly condemn sexual har¬assment, incidence of harassment as a wholedeclines, while more serious cases are re¬ported: both signs of progress. Furthermore, “acritical part of the prevention process is crea¬tion of a written statement that defines sexualharassment and describes for students andfaculty specific examples of the behavior.”7The University has been through this processPhoto by Andrew Halpem once already in 1981-82, when a student madea formal complaint against a professor, and theobvious confusion and ineffectiveness of theUniversity’s response led to the current policystatement (adopted in April, 1982). While thecurrent procedural guidelines are a vast improvement over their predecessor, they do notdefine sexual harassment, and are needlesslyvague in suggesting how students handle in¬cidents of harassment. By only mentioning aformal complaint procedure, the current guide¬lines inhibit victims of harassment from a widerange of effective and appropriate responses tosexual harassment, from not so serious to veryserious incidents.Finally, Dzeich and Weiner note, “the suc¬cess of sexual harassment prevention dependson publicity and education.”8 Most harassmentis the result of sex-role stereotypes or a har-asser's belief that he cannot be punished forhis actions. The University can take an effectiverole in preventing sexual harassment by pub¬licizing a strong policy statement against har¬assment and by initiating such services as apamphlet on sexual harassment in orientationpackets. The university can work to foster anenvironment where “faculty, administrators,and students will deal more effectively andobjectively with the problem if they are con¬sistently encouraged to reevaluate sex-rolestereotypes.”9 Just as racial discrimination andracist behavior are not tolerated in the Univer¬sity environment, there is no excuse for toler¬ating sex discrimination or sexual harassment.Before concluding, readers should note thatthe bulk of Jhis article has necessarily dealt withfemale victims of sexual harassment. Whilemen do experience sexual harassment, surveyafter survey has shown that the overwhelmingmajority of victims are women. All of CASH’Ssuggestions for handling cases of sexual har¬assment apply to male as well as femalevictims. However, because research on femaleto male or same-sex harassment is almost non¬existent, it would be inappropriate to discussthose issues in detail.Sexual harassment is an invidious form ofsex discrimination which must be talked aboutand dealt with, since many people disregard allbut the most blatant instances (even then thereis the inevitable “she asked for it” response torape). Ignorance of the issue is typified by theman who wrote on his survey “sexual harass¬ment is the best thing that could happen tome.” Does he mean he wants to be raped?Some people do not understand that not allsexual attention is desirable or flattering. Peo¬ple tend to reject sexual harassment as trivial,joking, or somehow flattering, so that peopleoften don’t fully realize when they have beenharassed (consider the widespread phenome¬non of date rape). CASH has no hidden agendaof censorship or punishment, but the verysimple goal of allowing people who have exper¬ienced sfAual harassment to redress this seri¬ous form of discrimination.While CASH has no more scheduled meet¬ings this quarter, interested individuals cancontact us at 667-1198. We look forward to acontinuing an enlightening discussion of sexualharassment within the University community.Notes1. Dzeich and Weiner, The Lecherous Profes¬sor. p. 189-1902.

Since Tocqueville, oneEuropean after another has crossed theocean to deliver an outside *’4 diagnosis.Few were overwhelmingly impressed,and most Americans, like other nationals,have been more than pleased to keepthese critics an ocean’s length away.One who has stuck around is Swiss-bornphotographer Robert Frank, and one ofthe most controversial artistic depictionsof American life came through his cam¬era in the mid 1950’s.Frank sailed to the United States in1947 During 1955 and 1956 he travelledthroughout the country on a Guggenheimgrant, intending to compile a half¬documentary, half-artistic catalogue ofAmerican culture. He ended up with aportrait of institutionalized alien¬ation—and a lot of enemies.Frank's photographs carry a grittinessin form and substance that reflects hisimpression of intestinal America. The richand powerful and the faceless poor allbetray a fundamental despair in his work.Automobiles and jukeboxes loom overthe fragile hopes of a culture obsessedwith upward mobility and cartoon-likemedia. Frank’s images cut to the humancore of social and economic fantasy,impotent ambition and spiritual poverty.Frank focused on the smallness of agross society and challenged the idealsof Dream America during the age of thegreat communist witch hunts. And ifcynical nationals had a tough time ex¬plaining themselves, a curious photo¬grapher with a foreign accent incited aparanoia dripping with insinuations ofsubversive conspiracy. It’s no surprisethat Frank chose to publish the result ofhis American travels through a Frenchpublisher before presenting an Englishedition.The Americans, his most renownedbook, first appeared here in 1959. oneyear after the French version.

The IanMcKellan/Edward Petherbridge company’s visitin connection with the Chicago InternationalTheater Festival may not have been as her¬alded as they could have wished: the highticket prices for most of the troupe’s showshave been somewhat off-putting to frugalChicago aesthetes, and although the Black-stone auditorium has never been sold outduring the run, the productions the group hasmounted on the tour have all been un¬surprisingly impressive. The works with whichthey have chosen to conclude their participationin the festival, Tom Stoppard’s The Real In¬spector Hound and Richard Sheridan’s TheCritic, continue advancing their reputation forcombining stunning visual tableaux with in¬spired acting.In a phrase, these two one act plays pre¬sented by the National Theatre are pricelessand inspired. Of the two, probably The RealInspector Hound is generating the most atten¬tion, because it is directed by the author,current fave British theater golden boy TomStoppard, but the bill, is at its best whenconsidered as a unit: Sheila Hancock's su¬perbly directed Critic is at least as much fun asStoppard’s Hound, and possibly more so, and,indeed, satirizes theatrical conventions everybit as soundly. Both plays together, taken oneafter another, are dizzying flights of giddy fun,like adjacent roller coaster rides at an amuse¬ment park; we enjoy both works, although it isconceivable that some of us may have favor¬ites In any case, these are parallel pieces ofstagecraft, basically about the same subject,yet. each putting the emphasis on differentelements so that we enjoy the two plays asindividual works, and don’t find the similaritiesredundant.The Real Inspector Hound contains a per¬formance of a mock God-awful whodunnit, a-laAgatha Christie, and two audience-sitting vul-ture-like critics who eventually, due to someextraordinary what-is-reality-and-where-does- the-stage-end twists of reality find themselvesas suspects and detectives in the story, movinginexorably toward a rather nasty conclusion. Itis, in addition to being a sort of metaphysicalstudy of the walls between reality and thestage—of the barriers which are never, neverbroken in the theater—also a rather pungentcriticism of the carrion-hunting critics whoperform no useful function in the theatricalbody. Roy Kinnear and Edward Petherbridgeare the two critics, one portly, lustful, andgluttonous, and the other somewhat greasy andsnide. Kinnear, who is an important theaterfigure in his own element, has not really beenvisible on this visit to the U.S. so far, but in thisplay he shares the main role with Petherbridge,and carries it off quite well.

I read theirwriting with a sense of frustration and anger —angry that the writers, who probably have well-meaning intentions, could manipulate the per¬sonal trauma of others to further their ownpolitical interests. Granted, they may be con¬vinced that the personal is necessarily poli¬ticized, but they should not foist that viewpoint— or that additional attention — on those twowomen Not only is this attitude insensitive tothe women, but it transforms them into sensa¬tional commodities. It uses them to grab thereaders’ attention, but never convincingly spellsout the link between their assault and thewriters' call for reform. The writers' tone ofantagonism and militancy becomes a grandiose“I told you so” to the University. And I can onlywonder how such self-righteousness can helpthe victims in Hyde Park (or the victims inSouth Africa). My suspicion — unless thewriters can substantiate their claims — is thattheir rhetoric only boosts a conception ofthemselves as the good guys in white againstan evil, conspiratorial UniversityThe link between the assault of the twoDIVEST NOW women and the suggested reforms is tenuous.While Bacon and D’Arcangelo admit that thestatistics on sexual assault in Hyde Park are“difficult to know exactly,” they are certain thenumber is high. I too assume it is high. But I amskeptical of their claims that “it is a pattern ofpersistent interracial violence (black menagainst white women), often taking the form ofrape” (my italics). They have no support for thisclaim. While evidence of rape is difficult tocollect and, according to the writers, suppres¬sed by the University, it is naive to return to thismyth about black (sic) men.The writers assert that “only a person whohas been denied access to conventional meansof asserting power and dominance (with moneyor social recognition) would resort to assertingthemselves in this most sadistic and brutalway.” In this conception of power, only black(sic) or minority men would ever resort to rapeDoes this mean that only poor black (sic) orminority men are rapists? This generalization ismisleading and unsubstantiated, reducing anact of sexual violence to racial antagonism. Butwe — and they — know differently. The writersneglect to consider acquaintance rapes —which Ms. magazine and other sources docu¬ment as the most prevalent form of rape oncollege campuses (which is also almost alwaysintraraciat). They fail to take into account thesexual victimization of black (sic) women in thiscommunity.Admittedly, the writers were not writing about rape in general, but they do not back up theirpolitically dangerous claim that the sexual vio¬lence of black (sic) men against white women issomehow “more difficult to deal with,” moredestructive, “more pernicious.” For the writers,such a generalization suffices because it sup¬ports their own political causes. They construethe recent assault as the black (sic) men'sacting out of bitterness toward the University'spolicies of investment, its attitudes about thecurriculum and its supposed alienation from theblack (sic) community around it. This is quite aleap to make. Those men sexually assaultedthose women; they did not rape the University.To claim that they did, however, ignores thepersonal trauma of the women — swallowsthem in political rhetoric — as well as ignoresthe presence of misogyny in rape. It is im¬possible, for example, that any of the reformsthat the writers suggest — from divestment tothe creation of a Women’s Center — will endthe problem of rape in Hyde Park. So whymake such an inflammatory connection in thefirst place? Why not, instead, put forth effort toresearch how the University can go aboutorganizing, staffing and administering Women’sand Minority’s Centers and Womens andBlacks Studies? By saving the administrationthis task, and demonstrating the practical ben¬efits of such reforms (by showing how otherUniversities have benefitted from such pro¬grams), the writers might be getting us some¬where.Bacon and D’Arcangelo’s article frustratesme. I sympathize with their anger over theassault, as well as some of the reforms theysuggest. I do not, however, see a pronounced,or even plausible, connection between the two.Bacon and D’Arcangelo say that “we need tocommunicate and integrate” with the surround¬ing community. That’s great. But I doubt theycare about communicating with the administra¬tion whose policies they hope to affect. Theirapproach of militancy and antagonism will onlyerect barriers. It will preclude all attempts ofeffecting practical reforms in these areas. I canonly wonder, then, what they can possibly hopeto accomplish.—Wayne ScottOne writer responds:The controversial article, “A Fortress InvitesAttack” by Stephanie Bacon and GideonD’Arcangelo (GCJ, May 9, 1986), attempted tomake a link between this University's racism,as exhibited towards the South Chicago Blackcommunity, and the occurrence of Black-on-white rape in Hyde Park. That tnis article wascontroversial is unavoidable: any attempt todemystify an issue as sensitive as rape andlook for causes beyond “sexual perversion” isbound to generate controversy However, muchof the response to the article so far has eithermisinterpreted the article or has been simplyinane, and has thereby both ignored what is ofmerit in the article and avoided some genuineproblems with it. Some clarification is, there¬fore, in order.First, the article is about a specific kind of conserve his strength for his role in The Critic).The other play on the bill, Richard Sheridan’sThe Critic or A Tragedy Rehearsed was a morefrenetic play, in which all Hell broke loose at thefinale, but, in its plot, it was not unlike theearlier one. Here, too, two critics sit offstageand argue about the merits of a ghastly play, arather pompous political drama in final dressrehearsal, called The Spanish Armada. Origi¬nally written by Sheridan to satirize the pom¬pous behavior of the theater community of hisday, and the political aura which surrounded it,today his work is a universal satire of theponderous and self-aggrandizing nature ofpopular theater itself. The actions the actorsundergo in the presentation of this performanceare so well textured and so well choreographed(due of course, to the talented ministrations ofdirector and NT power mama Sheila Hancockand choreographer Geraldine Stephenson) thatit created some of the funniest moments I haveever seen on stage, any stageKinnear was back, this time as Mr. Dangle,so named because of his predilection for“dangling” around theater waiting rooms as adilletante, accompanied by the always delightfuland versatile Jonathan Hyde, his cohort inspectatorship, as Mr. Sneer. Hyde's perform¬ance here may well have been the mostoutstanding one of the evening: to create hischaracter, he had to virtually readjust his upperface into an affectation reflecting his name. IanMcKellan ruled this stage, and was everywherein a loopy manner that made Thomas Hulce’s(and for that matter filthy old Mark Hamil’s aswell) performances as Amadeus seem un¬developed and amateurish. Of the rest of theeminent NT. cast, costume changes were sofrequent that it was almost impossible to iden¬tify who was whom; however, particularly ex¬cellent in their fleeting roles were Selina Cadell,Julie Legrand, Hugh Lloyd, and PeterNeedham.Again, William Dudley’s collapsable set forthis play became a chaotic wonder, liana Sek-acz’ music more than appropriate, and MalcolmRanson’s fight scenes were electric and amus¬ing.This production concludes the NationalTheatre of Great Britain’s visit to Chicago, andis certainly some of the best theater visibleanywhere in this country right now. The RealInspector Hound and The Critic close thisSunday.rape, namely, inter-racial rape and, specifically,Black-on-white rape. This particular kind of rapewas selected for analysis only because it is themost prevalent kind in Hyde Park as far as canbe ascertained from newspaper reports. Otherkinds of rape are not considered here for thatreason even though they form most of the rapecases across the nation To concentrate, there¬fore, on this type of crime, and to look forunderlying causes for it. is both a worthwhileundertaking, and hardly constitutes an attemptto revive any myths about Black men.Second, there is a difference between un¬derlying social causes responsible for a type ofcrime and the particular motivations of anindividual for perpetrating a crime. There is nodoubt that enforced poverty leads to crime andalso that racism breeds hostility. Such hostilitycan easily lead to inter-racial crime, includingrape, as is suggested by the article. There hasbeen no suggestion that these rapes are part ofany conscious political agenda of any individualor group and to attempt to interpret the argu¬ment in that fashion is ludicrous. The Universityis responsible for much of the current conditionof Hyde Park and the surrounding areas, in¬cluding the segregation, and must bear re¬sponsibility for it. Further, this segregation andsystematic harassment of Black people ensurethat there is no natural community life on thestreets of Hyde Park as, for instance, comparedto 47th street. Such community life, that is, thepresence of people, serves as a deterrent forcrime and, thanks to the University, this deter¬rent is simply not available to residents of HydePark.Third, the article is an attempt to analyze aparticular form of crime. The actual crime thatoccurred engendered the horror that demon¬strated the necessity of such thinking. Thearticle does not focus on the particular crime.To misinterpret the article as an attempt tomake political capital out of the “personaltrauma” of others is extremely ill-advised. Onecould just as easily speculate on the politicalambitions of Wayne Scott assuming the role ofa White Knight rushing to the defense of someDamsels he perceives to be in Distress. Thewriters of the article need make no apology fortheir militancy. Publishing an article is a form ofcommunication (even to the University Admin¬istration) and the nature of the crime neces¬sitates militancy stridency. Nothing short of thatcan hope to move this University Administrationout of its characteristic intransigence.The major problem with the article is that itmakes no attempt to prioritize the various stepsthat the University could take to help preventcrimes of this sort. The article is correct insofaras all of these steps are necessary to end theracism inherent in the University’s policies.However, not all of them are equally importantin dealing with this kind of rape: divestmentfrom South Africa is marginal if not irrelevant,changing the University’s behavior towards thecommunity or the establishment of a Women’sCenter is critical.

Tney were successful primarilyin taking the heat off Reaoan fo-- his “con¬structive engagement” policy.Tney were aiso a success for tne computerindustry iobbyists who had opposed morestringent sanctions passed py the House ofRepresentatives. Ana tne limited sanctionswere useful to that industry in deflecting atten¬tion from tneir activists in Soutn Africa, whichquite concretely support apartheid. They werealso, as the remarks aoove indicate, useful toPresiaent Gray in ner ongoing campaign tomaintain the University's investments in SouthAfrica-iinked companies.Yesterday tne University of Chicago Coalitionfor Divestment (UCCD), joined by memoers oanti-apartheid groups at other campuses andoff campus, took their protest against U.S.corporate support for apartheid downtown tothe neaaquarters of IBM. The target was highlyappropriate for UCCD: IBM is the largest hoiding m the University's stock portfolio (the Uni¬versity owns over $14 million worth of IBMstock, with an additional $2 million invested inthe IBM Credit Corp.), and IBM Chairman JohnR. Opel is a member of the Board of Trusteesof the University.IBM had $450 million worth of sales in SouthAfrica last year, with a significant proportiongoing to the South African government. Overthe years IBM has equipped numerousapartheid-enforcing agencies and militarybranches of the government. The computeriza¬tion of the population registration system, theSouth African Defense Force (SADF)’s com¬puterized command and control system, andmuch more have depended on IBM’s presencein South Africa. IBM computers are used todayby many provinces and municipalities whichwork closely with police in the day-to-day ad¬ministration of apartheid laws—and which arenot restricted under Reagan’s sanctions.Those sanctions did little more than rees¬tablish sanctions enacted by President JimmyCarter, which Reagan had loosened up. Thesanctions cover computer sales to the militaryand to apartheid agencies—except (thanks toIBM lobbyists) when contracts had been signedprevious to Reagan s executive order. Wnatthey don't cover-rs tne real story.The Department of interior is one of tne“aoartheid-e nforcing agencies” listed inReagan s order. Its ‘Book of Life,” whichKeeps close track of 7 million “coloureds.'Indians, and Asians was computerized witn twoIBM 370/158 maintrame computers in 197CIBM leased and later sold tne computers to theDepartment. IBM now claims tne Departmentnas stopped using tne computers; documenta¬tion of that ciaim in unavailaoie according toresearchers.No doubt IBM nas stopped servicing thecomputers, possibly to avoid bad publicity. Butcomputers, components and software withidentical capabilities can still be sold to theDepartment of Statistics.As one South African computer specialistnoted, “There is a lot of underutilized capacityin government computer installations, and thereis no way the U.S. authorities will be able toprevent this capacity from being used by thedefence and police departments.”Sales to the State Tender Board, a centralprocurement office for several governmentagencies, including military and securitybranches and the “homeland” administrations,are admissible under the sanctions, as long asthe board certifies the computers will be incompliance.The State Tender Board can oe “used as asupply conduit for the few South African gov¬ernmental agencies that are embargoed by theU.S.,” according to Automating Apartheid, abooklet published by the American FriendsService Committee. The board “can easilyconceal the ultimate end-user of any U.S.equipment and thus circumvent the embargo.”The SADF, the government-owned Ar-manents Corporation (ARMSCOR), and thoseprojects of the Council for Scientific and Indus¬trial Research (CSIR) which are strictly militaryare restricted under the Reagan sanctions. Butas long as IBM does business in South Africa,such restrictions will have little effect.Arming Apartheid“Pretoria continues to have commercial ac¬cess to a vast array of advanced foreignproducts, including systems with direct militaryapplications, dual-use commodities, and ‘pre¬cursor technologies’ vital to a whole generationof arms." notes AFSC researcher Tom Conrad,perhaps the leading expert on the U.S. com¬puter industry’s involvement in South Africaoutside of government or the industry, in theMarch 1986 Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.South Africa’s long record of using thirdparties, setting up front operations, and workingclandestinely to circumvent embargoes is doc¬umented in Automating Apartheid. “While GRAY WRONG ON IBMS.A. troops of Heldelburg Army training base.South Africa undoubtedly still engages in coverttransactions when necessary,” writes Conrad inthe Bulletin, “Pretoria can usually simply pur¬chase what it needs to make weapons directlyfrom multinational corporations doing ousinessin South Africa or from.tneir distriDutors....“Regardless of who tne purported end-useris. once foreign technology ;s exported to SoutnAfrica, it is virtually impossible to prevent itfrom finding its way into the hands of tnegovernment, the military, or weapons makers,”writes Conrad. He cites U.S. State Departmentcabies as well as a South African militaryjournal whicn reports, “Most of the importedparts still used by ARMSCOR are componentsthat are freely available on the commercialmarket.”South African law permits the government toseize any strategic product that it needs in an“emergency.” Other measures require thatevery computer in the nation be registered withthe government, and forbid disclosure of anysecurity-related transaction or seizure.The U.S. government can’t be counted on toenforce its own regulations, as shown in 1981when columnist Jack Anderson revealed thatthe Commerce Department had allowed severalcomputer sales to the South African militaryand police by such University of Chicago-in¬vested companies as IBM, General Electric,and Digital Equipment—despite regulationsforbidding such sales.The key issue, says Conrad, is the commer¬cial availability of computers in South Africa.IBM has stopped servicing the Department ofInterior, the SADF and the CSIR. and thus canclaim “no knowledge of” use of their equip¬ment Dy those agencies. But there’s nothing tcstop a private company from purchasing IBMparts, software, service, training, and tecnnicaKnow-how and passing it on to tne militarySuch “third party maintenance deals” arevery' likeiy one way tne emoargo is oemgcircumvented ’ said Conrac in a teieDnoneinterviewImportant government military researchgroups and all private weapons manufacturersare exempt from Reagan s sanctions. CSIR isemDargoed only for a few orancnes devotedentirely to military research. CSIR is the largestresearch organization in South Africa: its boardof directors is appointed Dy President Botha. ItsDrancnes have been involved in a wide range ofweapons research and development, includingadvanced missile research, nerve gas, com¬puterized target acquisition, and armored patrolvehicles. CSIRs Centre for Computing Ser¬vices—with two IBM 370/158s—“the lifebloodof the entire organization,” according toAutomating Apartheid, “providing an awesomeamount of computing power to....20 satelliteinstitutes and laboratories,” many involved insensitive weapons-related work. All CSIR has todo to qualify for sales or service underReagan's regulations is certify that a transac¬tion won’t further military purposes.Hundreds of private military contractors arestill fair game for IBM. Just one example is theAfrican Explosives and Chemical Industries,Ltd. (AECI), where several IBM computersmaintain the two largest explosives factories inthe world. In addition, the company producesriot control gas, nerve gas, and napalm. Alsounaffected by the sanctions is the all-whitePotchefstroom University, where 35 percent ofthe student body is in uniform, and which hascarried out over 120 military research projectsfor CSIR; virtually every department has beeninvolved in military research. PotchefstroomUniversity uses an IBM 370 mainframe in itsresearch projects.IBM No VictimIt may seem strange that such arrangementshave been executed—and there are many,many more—despite IBM's repeated insistenceon its abhorrence of apartheid (an insistencewhicn sounds much like President Reagan's,and President Gray’s). What is the corpora¬tion’s attitude toward all this?“We are not in business to conduct moralactivity, we are not in business to conductsocially responsible action,” said IBM chiefexecutive John Akers on the company’s SouthAfrica operations recently. “We are in businessto conduct business "President Gray has insisted that the trustees,who include IBM Chairman Opel, concernthemselves with the level of “corporate re¬ sponsibility” (apDarently measured more or lesssubjectively) of the companies in which theUniversity invests But this company, the Un-versity’s numoer one investment, disavowssuch considerations.IBM officials nave also acknowledged tna*they have no control over what nappens to therproducts once they get to South Africa. Indeedthey have acknowledged that they don’t careor more accurately, it’s not their “business.” “Itis not really our policy to tell our customers howto conduct themselves,” said an IBM spokes¬person last year, on the Question of verifyingthe end-use of computers exported to SouthAfrica.IBM officials have also acknowledged thatthey sold equipment manufactured over¬seas—which is not subject to U.S. regula¬tion—to South African agencies which areproscribed by U.S. regulations.Remarkably, IBM awarded a research grantto one CSIR research institute in 1979, at atime when the institute had numerous contractswith ARMSCOR.IBM's lobbying activities last year also makeit clear that its business interests are given fargreater weight than any concern aboutapartheid. Among the provisions they success¬fully torpedoed was an end-use verificationmeasure contained in the House sanctions bill.IBM, along with Control Data and HewlettPackard (yet another UC investment), soughtprovisions to permit continuing service andsoftware for computers previously leased orsold to South Africa's military, policy, orapartheid-enforcing agencies, while acceding toprohibitions on new sates, according to RepHoward Berman <D -Calif.), sponsor o* theHouse sanctions bill."As tar as I know. computer industrysookesmen were the only Dusiness representa¬tive wno mounted an active campaign agarns:tne sanctions in (tne House) bill.” Berman toidtne trade journal Datamation. “Their actionsare surprising, given tnai tneir product contrib¬utes so directly to apartheid ana sales to tneSouth African government represent sucn a tinyfraction of their worldwide profits.”Not so surprising, pernaps. Also last yea'.IBM tried to use a small New England exporter.Scientific Systems inc., to circumvent U.Ssanctions and sell military-capable computersto a South African company closely linked tothat country’s nuclear weapons developmentprogram. The U.S. Department of Commercecertified the deal, accepting the South Africancompany's certification of non-military use anaunaware of its military links. But the minority-owned SSIs refused to go along. CommentedDatamation: the commerce department “musthave been using Swiss cheese as its model”when it fashioned its regulations.For many years, IBM had little to say aboutapartheid, maintaining simply that IBM was a“progressive force” there. Then last year thecompany began calling on the Botha regime forfaster “reform,” mainly through advertisementsin South African newspapers. As of April, 1985IBM's Akers was stating. "We are not going toleave (South Africa).” But last month the NewYork Times reported that IBM is “constantlyreviewing” whether to continue its South Af¬rican operations. The major reason, of course,is South Africa’s economic slump But Akersalso mentioned tne fact that “the economicpressure in the United States is heightened” asadded inducement for IBM to get out.What has the University of Chicago done inrelation to this economic pressure which isforcing IBM to consider cutting off South Af¬rican access to its products9 In the last yearthe University purchased an additional 3000shares of IBM stock.The University did sell its stock in ControlData, which was perhaps the most egregioussupplier of apartheid Control Data is heavilyinvolved with the British film ICL. which is evenles> circumspect in its servicing of apartheidthan U.S. companies Through ICL, CD wasinvolved in deals with the passbook agency andthe national police force and national in¬telligence service And despite the 1978 em¬bargo, CD sold South Africa computers whichwere capable of modeling nuclear explosionsAsked by Datamation to comment on the nu¬clear project, CD responded: “At CDC SouthAfrica, we continue to serve the need foreducation and training in job development for black (sic) South Africans. This work. . con¬tinues to be of critical importance to prepareblack (sic) Soutn Africans for equal participationin the economy of a South Africa that is freefrom the abhorrent apartheid system.”(Someone tell CDC South Africa that BlackSouth Africans are quite ready for equality.)It’s unlikely that this outrageous record hadany relation to UC's “divestment” from CD,though; the company had suffered an earningsslump for over a year and a half when theUniversity sold. In any case, $3.1 million ofControl Data stock was replaced with $5.3million worth of stock in Digital EquipmentCorp., a company which supplied componentsfor a South African Air Force radar systemduring the Carter embargo, and which contin¬ues to supply numerous private military con¬tractors in South Africa.President Gray's position on divestment hasaiso changed since the issue arose in 197’Then she argued that withdrawal of U.S. in¬vestment would hurt South African Biacxs. andanyway the University could accomplish morethrough shareholder resolutions than by dives’-ing. This is our own version of constructiveengagement. Now she claims not to Knowwhether U.S. investments in South Africa neipor hurt tne South African people, and she hintsrather broadly that the University is pressuringfor corporate withdrawal behind the scenesMaybe that's progress. It is certainly aneffect of the movement wnich is demandingdivestment.The cause of freedom in South Africa wouldbe advanced far more if IBM were forced out o'South Africa than if the University were forcedout of IBM. (The squeeze will be even greater if,as seems liKely with Pretoria’s latest aggressionagainst its neighbor states, the Commonwealtrnations enact a serious embargo next month.:And it is only the headache of the divestmen*movement for the administration, the constantfire at its feet, which might induce it to pressureIBM in that direction. (Certainly they have itemscloser to the educational mission of the schoolto discuss: corporate grants for the Universityare probably a far higher priority).Just as it is the “economic pressure in tneUnited States.” and the political and economiccrisis in South Africa which is pressuring IBM toreconsider its operation.In the same way, it is the "economic pres¬sure in the United States.” and the political andeconomic crisis in South Africa—and not anysense of social responsibility—which is forcingIBM to reconsider its apartheid operations. Andsimilarly, if there is any hope that the apartheidregime will negotiate with the African NationalCongress for a settlement short of “totalwar”—and the experience of Zimbabwe is atieast some grounds for hope—it will not oe dueto advertisements placed in South Africannewspapers by IBM. It will come when alongtime partner, a solid ally, cuts off sup¬port—and wnen the South African people re¬fuse to bacK down “Power yields nothingwithout a demand.” as Frederick Douglasssaid.Presiaent Gray was asked at the Octooe' 22Teach-In whether tne University would invest ina company whicn fully complied with the Su -livan Drincipies Put supplied ammunition to tneSouth African government.Tnats exactly wnat IBM does IBM, with itstop-leve! Sullivan rating, supplied eauipmen’through a front company in the late ’70s tccomputerize the SADFs Project Konvoor. Tna'project involved automating ammunition ancmilitary supplies throughout the country ana ipNamibia, at a savings to the SADF of 50 millionrand a year.Gray’s response9 “There is one level o*abstraction on which I could say yes. (theUniversity would invest), but. in fact, it seems tome that this is so inherently incompatible, as ithought about that question, so inherently in¬compatible with central values that we shouldnot. And I believe, also. that, yes, I believe thatwould be inherently wrong.”Sharing ya world of experienceto meetSouth Africa’s needs.IBM's 370 computer is used by many S.A.government agencies.DIVEST NOWGREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY.

Also,this is an exhibition, not a competition, soplease—no wagering.Five Recent Albums That Are Good To HaveWynton Marsalis Black Codes from the Un¬derground (B + /A-)Black Codes is one of the biggest jazz sellersin years, and for good reason. With tight songconstruction, excellent velocity control, and agood range of expression, Wynton Marsalis hasthe basic tools of a great trumpet player. Also,having hot session musicians Kenny Kirkland,Charnet Moffet, and brother Branford backinghim up doesn’t hurt. Black Codes is equallyaccessible to both novices and hardcore jazzenthusiasts, and this is one of its most surpris¬ing strengths. Marsalis, who has already won aclosetful of awards and much attention for hisplaying with Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers inthe early eighties put out several other ex¬cellent Ips (Think Of One, Wynton Marsalis) butfollowed them up with the extremely mediocreCBS record, Hot House Flowers. DespiteFlowers' lack of substance, it sold very well andseemed to entrench Marsalis in the commer¬cial, insubstantial vein. Happily, Black Codeshas him returning to the good song construc¬tion featured on his first two albums. “Del-feayo’s Dilemma" and Chambers of Tain” arewell written, tight bop, and basically soundgreat to the ear. Also, the title cut is anambitious 9 1/2 minute variation on a themewith great block chords from Kirkland and arambling, driving exchange between the Mar¬salis brothers that burns up.Unfortunately, this is probably the last timethe group will be working together for a whiledue to a feud over Branford and Kirklandhaving temporarily migrated into Sting’s touringband. While Black Codes is not an artisticmasterpiece, it is still a very pleasant surpriseand miles ahead of Marsalis’ last. It’s well wortha listen.John Rapson Deeba Dah Bwee (A)This is one of the messiest jams I’ve heard ina while Rapson, a Sun-Ra Arkestra member,assembled an unlikely cast including Bill Hart¬ley, Vinny Golia, and Wayne Peet, whoseuptempo works are hardly reknowed. and gotthem to jam beyond all expectations. It’s quitean album."Riff/Bass, Bridge Head" is the combinationof colliding saxophones, trumpets, and trom¬bones thrown together with funky bass walkingand a crunching piano, and it smoulders withgreatness. “The Implication Isn’t” has somefine loud piano too, with Peet pounding andflailing away with great sensitivity as Hartley’strumpet and Rapson’s Trombone blur togetherin cacophonic, apocalyptic bursts. The bestsong on the album, ‘‘Virile,’’ begins side twowith Miranda's Bass and Peet's piano slashingagainst each other as the horn section babblesominous repeated gibberish until the choruskicks in with a great chart. “Sheldon's Sweet-ime” is a sardonic slowdown piece with sultry,muted trumpet from Hartley and oddly accentedbeats from the piano which thrashes throughthe song nicely. Closing the Ip is “Lament forEarache D.,” a soft trumpet melody interruptedperiodically by chilling piano banging and furious bass plucking. It is, if not plain frightening,a lot of fun.While Deeba Dah Bwee is a great raw edgedjam with everyone overplaying, the songs alsologically progress beyond mere repeated fig¬ures into fairly complex and intricate structuresand ideas. Many songs have elements ofseveral different styles at once ("Sheldon'sSweetime” has hard bop, footstomping strip¬tease, and free jazz all crammed in together),and the rhythmic and thematic variations keepthe album flying from start to finish.Often a record soothes your ears. Sometimesa record stimulates them. Deeba Dah Bweebeats up on your ears and only leaves youwanting more.Anthony Braxton Seven Standards, Vols. Iand //(l:B-, ll:A-/A)If there were any lingering doubts in any¬one's mind of alto iconoclast Anthony Braxton'sability to blow through the standards loud andclear, these two afbums should dtspef them.Braxton, whose groundbreaking free jazz ex¬temporizations with fellow AACM members in¬cluding Muhal Richard Abrams, Henry Thread-gill, Joseph Jarman, and Roscoe Mitchell havebeen well documented by Arista, and are asimportant as anything recorded during the late60’s and mid 70's. While Braxton had shownoccasional hints at more conservative, straight¬ahead bebop on several of his late 1970’s Ips(104° K, for instance), the two Windham HillSeven Standards albums come as a veryinteresting surprise. To be sure, Standards VolI and II offer no earth-shatteringly originalcovers of the classics, but the grooves exudeas much ebullience and class as anythingthat’s out right nowVolume I opens with an uptempo CliffordBrown song, and Braxton immediately pro¬ceeds to cook up and down about sevendifferent charts, highlighted by a cool, under¬stated piano solo by Hank Jones Another goodcut is “Toy,” which closes out side one withBraxton demonstrating almost casual dexterity as he races all around the chorus yet stitlmaintains total control. Side two does have a9:35 Coots, Gillespie filler song, but also amoving rendition of ‘‘Old Folks,” which standsas one of its best covers.Seven Standards Vol. II features seven fa¬mous songs by some of jazz's greatest(Coltrane, Monk, Gillespie, Bird, Davis, andSilver) with more emphasis on rapid playing,and yields explosive results. With the exceptionof the beautiful "Ruby My Dear” and "Nica’sDream,” all the songs are fast and loud;Braxton lets loose on several occasions, mostnotably Moments Notice,” the blistering"Yardbird Suite,” and "Milestones.” SevenStandards Vol. II is one of the best straight bopalbums of 1986 and captures Braxton in topform with some of the best music he’s played inyears.Harold Land In the Land of Jazz (B +)This is a 1959 release that’s got a greatcover of “Speak Low,” good piano from CarlPerkins, and Land blowing consistency loudand clear. If that isn’t enough, “Nieta” is a coolmidtempo piece with a nice Ericson trumpetsolo and some good rhythm work. Side two isalso agreeably mellow throughout. There is nota weak cut on the album and it’s one of thebest of a recent slew of late 50’s rereleases,with excellent recording quality as well. Go outand give it a listen.Five Recent Albums I’m Glad I Don’t HaveJan Garbarek It's OK to listen to the grayvoice (C-)A saxophonist with talent to burn, Garbarekmust stand as one of the premier dis¬appointments of the 1980’s. After some greatsession work with ECM friends Ralph Towner,Jack Dejohnette, and Eberhard Weber, and oneor two strong solo Ips (Witchi Tai Tao standsout) back in the 70's, Garbarek has proceededto record some of the most listless and ir¬relevant albums released by anyone. It’s OK continues the trend.Garbarek sounds like an artist who has runout of what precious little imagination he oncerelied on to construct a melody, and his playingis unexceptional and boring. It’s OK is anexercise in mindless noodling and draining,plodding atmospherics, with only "Mission: Tobe where I am” containing any true songstructure or development. The common com¬plaint on Garbarek over the years has been alack of creative challenge or originality, and thedull drone of similarity strikes again here withan overriding ennui right from cut one. Thisdisc should be melted.Miles Davis You re Under Arrest (C)An album for only the most truly pathetic,hardcore Davis fans, You’re Under Arrest fea¬tures some of the most annoying drum machinesounds, DX-7 blasts, meandering bass lines,and cluttered electric guitar riffs of recentmemory. Coupled with two ill-advised, laugh¬able covers (M. Jackson’s “Human Nature”and Cindy Lauper’s "Time After Time”) andsome very tired-sounding session musicians,You're Under Arrest should manage to alienateas many fusion buffs as it disgusts long-timefans from Davis’ fire-eating bebop days of the60’s. On this record, Miles has truly lost thefunk and sold out whatever credibility he stillhad in the jazz world. Not even electric guitarvirtuoso John Mclaughlin's guest appearanceon three songs can lift this stale, predictable Ipfrom blithering mediocrity and insignificance.Wayne Shorter Atlantis (C + 1C)An exciting, expressive soprano and tenorsaxophonist, Shorter seems trapped betweenmaking MOR saccharine trash and hard, loosefusion on his latest record. Of course, it'simpossible to really do this, and although onegets the feeling Shorter tried pretty hard on thisalbum, the result falls far short of expectations.Many of the problems of Weather Report ofthe 70’s resurface here; slick overproduction, occasional failed attempts at pop construction(check out the terrible 1/4), and some OK songideas that never really develop beyond initialthemes. Shorter has been making money ses¬sion playing and it has clearly had an adverseeffect upon his own music. On the bright side.Michiko Hill plows through the proceedings withsome stately, coo! piano, saving this albumfrom total failure.Jean Luc Ponty Fables (C +• 1C)Here’s another example of a guy withtremendous gifts who consistently throws themContinued on page 10by Dave McNultyInteriors Interiors Windham HillTypical Western notions of music demand afairly rigid structure including an intro, a mel¬ody, a distinct chord progression, a variation, areturn, and an end — more or less. Andwhether I am proud to admit it or not that’smore or less what I expected when I played arecently released album called Interiors by thegroup of the same name. I am pleased to saythat after a little anxious listening I learned alot.The band is a quartet from Japan and they’reinto synthesized precision. Big-deal-so-what-else-is-new. you say. The digital effect may notbe new, but the polished engineering servesquite a different purpose than we may be usedto. The first cut of the album, appropriatelycalled “Technobose,” begins with the clean¬liness I would expect from any pop Columbiarelease, but after listening about thirty secondsI began to get nervous. There was no melody— no line to pick up and sing along with. I gotup and began pacing, waiting for someone tomake some assertive statement in the tune. Bythe time I realized my expectations had messedme up the song had ended and the next anewas fading in. Okay. I started the album overand sat back down. Once I relaxed my defen¬sive style of listening and demanding I realizedthere was something intriguing in what they weren’t playing.By some definition of the term, Interiorscould be called an environmental album; themusic attains an almost hypnotic effect throughrepetition. But the repetition is arresting. Theband spreads clearly punctuated rhythmic pat¬terns over shorter chord sequences and oftenthe cycles seem to revolve around one another,floating weightlessly through a musical outerspace The sounds become part of a largerspectacle you can observe rather than anassertive voice you must interact with. And witheach listening the subtle texture of thesynthesized backgrounds lures careful ears intonew lands with even wider spaces to explore.Environmental is far too simplistic a term forInteriors. Their music commands attention byletting the listener roam.Back in my now comfortable chair with nodominating voice to fix me to my surroundings.I escaped my little room. I found myself in acrystaline white hall of sound where every pulseurged me on, nowhere to go but further into themusic The thousand possibilities in my mindbecame the melody. I can't resist the idea thatthe music was playing me.Throughout the entire album there is hardly adiscernable melody to be found. Song aftersong (we use the term for vocal as well as non¬vocal pieces, betraying an expectation of beingled) pitches and rolls along with only the slightest tonal constraints to gild our listeningBut the lack of a melody hardly implies a lack ofexpression. Interiors bathes the listener in asoft breeze of rhythmic and harmonic pulsesthen pounds out a Kabuki-ltke percussiveangerThe music is qurte carefully controlled with¬out seeming contrived The band's sharp senseof temporal and tonal space emerges in it'sintelligent use of negative as well as positivecomponents. Like the movements in traditionalJapanese theater, the band’s statements arediscreet. Combined with the sleek engineeringand sythesized sounds, Interiors’ Eastern in¬fluence assumes quite an original character. Ican bet you haven't heard much music like this.How easy rt is to approach music withspecific demands, to find fault somewheresomehow. How refreshing to find music whichgives the listener room to breathe Interiorsinvites us to relax for a little while in a warmplace. The name suits the band wellWhile pop artists and producers continuallydemonstrate a new technique in pressing mu¬sical prejudices into tighter and tighter pack¬ages of precious air time, it is encouraging thatartists like Interiors and labels like WindhamHill support originality. It remains the task ofunfortunately obscure and small companies toset aside musical economy in favor of alter¬native approaches.by Carole ByrdThe voice. The one instrument that costsnothing but years of hard work and develop¬ment to buy. The power of voice, his own voice,was what led Haitian-born Linz Audain tobecome a singer. Linz, a PhD candidate inEconomics at Duke University and a student inthe University of Chicago Law school has beena paid musician since he was 18, and wiBperform at the International House Coffeehousenext Friday. May 30. "Some people may besurprised to see me singing this Friday night,”says Linz, “since they usually see me teachingeconomics or dressed in a suit on my waydowntown to the law office.” Linz plans todemystify the traditionally cold image of the lawwith his “Piano Bar Affair;” as he says, being aprofessor/lawyer and an artist do blend per¬fectly.Linz began his interest in music as a veryyoung child. "We were a poor family," saysLinz, "but somehow we got an old piano and apiano teacher who was teaching the five of uskids, and my mom. Through a combination oflack of interest and lack of money (the pianoteacher stopped coming), I stopped playing. Butthe piano sat there by itself long enough that Ibecame interested again ” His real interestdidn’t begin until he started taking voice les¬sons at the age of 16 at Southern CollegeThough he had been singing in some capacitysince age 4, he thought some traditional train¬ing couldn’t hurt. Once he began to feel thepower of his voice, his perfectionist naturedrove him to work daily on stretching his range and diversifying his skills. "One day at a musicconference, I heard a man hit an A', and atthat time I couldn’t even hit an 'E'. ” says Linz,"Everyday after that I came home, went to theshower, and sang, and screamed, trying tostretch my range. My family was crazy, bangingat the door everyday, trying to get me to stop.”The magical thing for a tenor says Linz, is tohit a B flat in public. Linz had his opportunity todo just that, singing the Sanctus from Berlioz'Requiem in the Duke University Chapel Choir.Linz says that they originally hired a profes¬sional tenor to do the solo, but fooling aroundwith the other tenors one day in rehearsal, hehit the note and sang the solo himself. "Every¬one just started clapping,” says Linz. “On theday of the performance, we were broadcastedon local television. My voice filled the DukeCnapel. It was the most sensational experi¬ence ” Linz was the leading tenor of the DukeUniversity Chapel Choir and the founding tenorof the Duke University Opera Quartet. He had arole *n the world premiere of Raleigh's Dream,an opera performed at Duke commemoratingthe 400th anniversary of the pilgrims' landing atRoanoke Island."My contention,” says Linz, “is that a mu¬sician should be able to do as many musicalforms as possible There are those who say‘Oh, my voice is only suited to opera, so that'swhat I’ll do‘; but I believe, like Duke Ellingtonsaid, there are only two types of music, goodand bad.” Linz grew up with a diversity ofmusical forms all around Some of his primarymotivation was religious music, but from morethan one cultural origin. “We were immigrants so we attended both Haitian and Americanchurches. In American Black churches. I firstwas exposed to Gospel ” Gospel bands andtraveling bands were his main source of "pop¬ular” music. The one thing he is sure aboutnow, is that he won’t continue with opera. "Idon’t think opera will be it for me. I value musicfor its communicative ability, and opera has alimited audience.”One of the ways that Linz communicatesthrough music is by writing, both lyrics andmelody. "The first song I wrote was kind of ajoke," be says. “I bet a friend of mine that Icoukj write a song in five minutes, and I did.”Now Linz writes music fairly often, he writesballads mostly, because as he says, "I likeballads.” To Linz this is the time of our greatestdiversity in American music, we seem to beridding ourselves of much of our eth-nocentricity, and combining all different kinds ofsounds: "In one sense, it's a very rich time formusic, but in another sense, it’s riskier,” hesays, "It used to be that all you needed to dowas mimic. Now, especially if you want to besuccessful, you don’t know what will go over,even mimicking can be dangerous. But I guessI’m just a nsky kind of guy.”At the International House Piano Bar Affair,Friday, May 30. from 9 pm to 11 pm.

NOWGRFY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1986 9THE COLD WAR IN KOREANomination of President Park Chung-neeby Miles MendenhallBuried in the press recently, the story of theintensifying struggle for democracy in SouthKorea has been almost elided by the news ofDuvalier's and Marcos' flights from justice, thedestruction of the space shuttle, and the Cher¬nobyl disaster. Meanwhile in South Korea,students and militant workers have engaged instreet battles with riot police on May 3, 10, 14,15 and 17, according to reports in the NewYork Times.This anti-dictatorship violence is the first insix years since thousands of dissident students,workers and army troops seized the city ofKwangju for several days in 1980 to protestmartial law. Their demands for an end to themilitary dictatorship, and for democracy, weremet with (force.) The official death toll was 191,but an estimated 800 to 1200 people were killedwhen the army occupied the city.The current protests are partially in supportof a petition to amend the Constitution, whichwould have direct election to the presidency,rather than the electoral college system pres¬ently on the statutes. The electoral collegemethod is susceptible to manipulation by theruling party, according to opposition politicians.Oppositional party leaders organized the peti¬tion drive in mid-February and 300 were placedunder temporary house arrest for their efforts.Scores of other activists were swept up andquestioned, while opposition party officers wereblockaded by thousands'of police. (NYT 5/8/86)Since then rallies have been held in support ofthe petition; it is during or after these eventsthat the violence between protestors and policehas occurred.The government response to the campaignfor a constitutional change, after the initialrepression, was to provoke conflicts in thestreets, keep the prominent opposition leaderKim Dae Jung under house arrest (by sur¬rounding his residence with police prior to anyrally and preventing him from leaving) and. untilrecently, refusing to consider any changes inpolicy or structure. Recall that Kim Dae Jungwas kidnapped in Japan a few years back andsmuggled to Korea where he was jailed untilinternational pressure resulted in his release.The violence has caught the attention to theUS government. Secretary of State, GeorgeSchultz, “visited” Seoul, the capital, on May 7to back “Korea’s Efforts,” (i.e. the “Govern¬ment's efforts to make changes”) and to sup¬port the present “president” of the country.President Chun Doo Hwan shot his way intopower in a military coup. The former armygeneral has promised to step down in 1988: ifhe does so, and if another leade*- can bechosen without violence, it will be the firstpeaceful transition in power in the country'shistory.South Korea was the product of Allied oc¬cupation of the peninsula after Japanese oc¬cupation during and prior to World War II. Itspartition between North and South is the resultof the bloody Korean “conflict” in the earlyfifties. While it was the communist North thatinvaded the South, part of the reason for theconflict was the use of mercenary and collabo¬ rationist forces, which had served the Jap¬anese, as police and army for the US presencethere. These forces were the core of thepresent South Korean (ROK) army. It is the onlyother country in the world which has US armyofficers as an integral part of its formal com¬mand structure. Large numbers of US militarypersonnel are based in South Korea. I was amilitary dependent and went to sixth and sev¬enth grade there. It is a rugged but beautifulcountry with an extremely harsh climate. TheKoreans have an ancient and rich culture, buthave been subject to repeated foreign invasionsby Japan and China since the XIVth century.Theirs is a history of repeated occupations andcolonization, and their heroes are any generalsand admirals who defeated invasions. Theyhave been invaded by the Russians, and somewould say, the United States. The recent re¬ports here show distress about references to“the military dictatorship' propped up by US‘imperialism’ ” (NYT 5/15/86) but what elsedescribes the last forty years of South Koreanhistory?South Korea was, and mostly still is, a verypoor country. In 1969 I was on a train with myBoy Scout troop going to the coast for summercamp, when the train stopped suddenly. Onasking why, we were told that a man in a ROKarmy uniform had jumped under the train. Ourinformant speculated that he did it to guaranteehis family the life-time pension that they wouldreceive if he died while in the service. It mademe wonder about a country where it was saferto die than to risk having to support a familywhile alive.There are strong similarities between thehillsides surrounding Seoul and many othercities in Korea, and the hillsides of Tijuana orthose of any city in any other impoverishednation We are told of the “economic miracle”of the last fifteen years in South Korea. I havenot been there for sixteen years; I suspect thereare many more factories and much more conCrete than when I was there last. I am sure thatthe middle and upper classes are somewhatlarger, and I suspect that more people havejobs at slave wages and long hours making knitshirts for Sears and manufacturing appliances for first-world consumers. When my family leftin 1970 we sold our US-made television,washer, drier, air-conditioners and stationwagon for what they cost in the States whennew. Each of these commodities was three tofive years old, yet all, except the car, were alsomade in Korea. They just were not available onthe domestic market because those built in thecountry were exclusively for export, so as toincrease foreign exchange and produce moredevelopment. Not that there is anything neces¬sarily wrong with development, but a quickinvestigation into common standards of living inSouth Korea would show a large increase for avery few, and little or no increase for mostothers.One night while I was in seventh grade Iwoke to the sound of machine gun fire. Ilistened with some trepidation but when it didnot get any closer I gradually fell back to sleep.In the morning I learned that some “infiltrators”had attacked the Blue Palace of General/President Park Chung Hee in an attempt to"cut off his head and take it back to NorthKorea.” My friends and I spoke to a marineguard a few days later who claimed to havefired at several of the attackers. We wereappropriately impressed with his manly courageand luck in escaping harm. The “attack on theBlue Palace" even made minor mention in oneof my high school history books, in HuntsvilleAlabama.Just following those brief two or three sen¬tences is a summary of tfie “Pueblo Incident.” Iwas also in Korea during that series of events.Briefly, for those who do not recall or have notheard, a US navy electronics surveillance ship(a.k.a. “spy-ship”) was attacked and boardedJanuary 23, 1968 in or near North Korean(commy) waters and taken into port. One of thecrew was killed, lots of electronic equipmentcaptured by the enemy, and Captain Lloyd M.Bucher and 81 of his crew were held prisoner,beaten, harassed, interrogated and in¬doctrinated (attempted brainwashing?) for ayear before their release was arranged. I recallthe sense of tension when the situation firstdeveloped. One Strategic Air Command gen¬eral in northern Japan put the entire US force inRHYTHM SUICIDE PARTY PREVIEWby Patrick Moxey and Jeff BrillIn case you haven’t heard, Saturday, May 31,WHPK is having a benefit party from 9 pm to 1am in Ida Noyes Hall, with two hot bands.Algebra Suicide and the Rhythm Method, aswell as HPK's own def dance dj’s.Algebra Suicide consists of the poetry ofLydia Tomkiw and the guitar, keyboards, andmultivox drum machine of Don Hedecker. Al¬gebra Suicide have been playing the Chicagoclub circuit since the release of their first EP onAlgebra Buzzarama in 1983. This was followed by asecond EP, "An Explanation for that Flock ofCrows," released in 1985 on the same label. Inaddition, a song from their first EP was chosenby Trouser Press to be on the ROIR cassette,“A Compilation of America Underground.” In¬dividual Algebra Suicide songs have alsoturned up on various European compilations, inFrance, Spain, Belgium, and Germany.So why the buzz? With meaningful, in¬telligent lyrics, virtually recited over an instru¬mentation, both simple and catchy, AlgebraSuicide has a sound which sets a pleasant toneand mood. It's a sound which is distinctive,unusual for the Chicago music scene, whichinvariably tends to take things to extremes.Whether it’s the slickly commercial drivel ofbands whoring themselves for a record con¬tract, such as "10-28” or "Presence,” orpeople banging on garbage can lids in apathetic reaction to the mainstream music in¬dustry, many local acts end up completelylacking ingenuity. This is why Algebra Suicideis a refreshing contrast. These people have hitupon that elusive point between alternativenessand accessability.Algebra Suicide is in the process of releasinga cassette of new material, entitled Big Skin, onthe Indianapolis cassette label Cause and Ef¬fect. Listening to the pre-release, it is apparentthat this may be their best work yet. Betterproduction results in a cohesiveness not asapparent on earlier recordings. Lydia’s melodicpoetry is, as always, well complimented by thestraight forward instrumentation.It is not easy to label Algebra Suicide. Theband label themselves “Avant-Garage.”WHPK’s own Ken Wissoker labels them exis¬tential white rap. All we can do is recommendthem highly! Opening for Algebra Suicide willbe that infamous Hyde Park r’n’r quartet, theRhythm Method. The Rhythm Method, aftersome line-up changes in the winter, havecoalesced into a tight unit, with sets short andsharp and all musicians on the ball At thispoint the Rhythm Method has gotten a numberof good dates, both club and college You mayask “Why are they still playing at Jimmy’s?”Don’t ask us With their REM-type college rocksound, they should be huge! Ail they need now is a record contract and they’ll soon be in MTVheavy rotation. Incidentally, a number of reportshave reached us that their bassist may bedefecting to the Elite Modeling Agency in NewYork, although these allegations are currentlybeing denied by his management.As if those two bands aren’t enough, HPKdance djs (you know who they are) will bespinning up a storm. That’s the WHPK benefitparty Saturday, May 31 in Ida Noyes. See youthere!Suicide the area on full alert and wanted to use nuclearweapons in an air strike against the evil dictatorKim II Sung. (Diarrhea is commonly called KimII Sung’s Revenge by North Americans inKorea.) I also recall the sense of national prideand relief I felt when I watched on the ArmedForces TV Network the officers and sailors limpand walk off the plane and onto buses whenthey returned. They stayed in a hospital nomore than twenty miles from where I lived. Ireally felt like I was witnessing actual, real-liveworld history. A few years later when I read abook about the crews experiences, I rememberlaughing at the story of how the men spiked anapple with piss and placed it in a bowl that oneof their guards was always stealing fruit from.Or how they kept watering a plant that theywere forced to care for with the same sub¬stance until it died, much to the consternationof their “benefactors.” Those were among myfirst lessons in resistance to authority.I relate these memories to show how tied toKorea the US really is, and how deep the basisfor our reduction of everything that happensthere to the struggle against godless commun¬ism. No doubt, any successes by the militantyouth will be interpreted as a sign of theimminent flood of reds from the north sweepingover the southern part of the peninsula. Ifgovernment repression succeeds, and it prob¬ably will (Taek Won Do (a Korean martial artwhich emphasizes kicking) kicks can only do somuch against a riot shield), there will be a sighof relief from the powers that be both here andin Seoul. Has it struck anyone else how con¬venient an excuse for political repression is thethreat of Communism? Or the threat of Capital¬ism for those in power on the other side? Itprobably has, it may be a banal observation butit bears repeating. The return to a normal stateof intense control rather than the unsightly anddisturbing phenomena of people fed up withmartial law, secret police, massive exploitation,religious and ideological banality, in otherwords, right-wing (dare we say Fascist?) dic¬tatorship, will reassure the US that once againthe freedom loving and hardy Koreans are safeagainst communism, and for capitalist dem¬ocracy. Whenever the latter can be grantedthem by their benevolent uncle, of course. Ithink he is called Sam, but many of his luckycharges, long past doubting his beneficence,are demanding autonomy. The names they callhim are closer to those the captured sailors ofthe Pueblo had for food thieves and agriculturaladvisors.Continued from page 9away. Ponty is a concertmaster quality violinist,with strong musical credentials and a desire toplay loud and fast, which is admirable, butthere is almost no point to any song on Fables.his latest. Displaying awesome technique butno emotions right from the opening “InfinitePursuit,” Ponty runs through the songs asthough he is less concerned with expressingideas or direction than he is in simply blowingaway his listeners with speed and technicalmastery. Yet it is not just terrible. “Cat’sTales,” the side two opener, emphasizes manyof the worst vices of fusion with an almostcontinuous spiral of the same bad chords andcharts progressing nowhere, and with norhythmic or emotional variation, yet it almostworks. Also, “Elephants In Love” has a nice,airy groove to it, although it is overrun with toomany thumping synth bleeps and not enoughvariety beyond the initial three chords. The restfalls miserably short on content and variety,and almost sounds like lacklustre game showmusic at times. All in all, Fables is a bad albumwith a few almost listenable cuts but nothing torecommend it.Charlie Parker Birth of Bebop (C +)The greatest alto saxophonist who ever livedwas recorded frequently on Savoy and Dialduring the 1940’s and is arguably still the singlemost significant figure in jazz history. A com¬poser of some of the most enduring jazz tunesof all time (“Ornithology,” "Billies Bounce,”and “Cool Blues” are included on this record),Parker’s death in March of 1955 signified theend of a bop era the likes of which we will sadlynever again see. Birth of Bebop brings togethersome previously missing 1943 recordings withBird on tenor saxophone, but while they arefascinating to hear, the sound quality is soabysmal as to destroy any significance theseversions would otherwise have. The drums,bass, and piano are all inaudible, often leavingonly Bird to compete with loud scratches andhisses that time has left upon the original tapes.It is a shame, because there are great musicians including Dizzy Gillespie, Oscar Pettiford,Billy Eckstine, and Miles Davis playing withhim, and the music clearly demonstrates Bebopin its early infancy; noisy and raucous as ever.Fortunately, the last three songs of side two,recorded in 1953, reveal markedly improvedfidelity, and although the Bird on these cuts isone who has left his greatest alto playing (withthe exception of Jazz at Massey Half) behindhim, he still manges to get in his fair share oflicks, most notably during the searing “Or¬nithology,” which unfortunately fades out in themiddle.If the recording was anywhere near thequality that the liner notes claim it is, The Birthof Bebop would be a classic As it is, the fidelityreally bites and this is a terribly disappointingalbum.DIVEST NOW10—FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1986—GREY CITY JOURNALSUPPLEMENTARY STUDENTINSURANCESUMMER 1986OFF-QUARTER COVERAGEJune 13th is the deadline for enrollment!Applications are available in Administration 103.Off-quarter coverage is available to degree students whoare registered and participate in the University Plan thequarter prior to the off-quarter and who expect to beregistered and participate the quarter following the off-quarter.

PLEASE!by Sahotra SarkarChicago, where Mies worked and built for thelast thirty-odd years of his life, has oftenexperienced that architect’s least successfuldesigns, from most of the Illinois Institute ofTechnology (IIT) Campus (1940-60) to thePromonotory Apartments (1946-49) in HydePark. The Mies van der Rohe Centennial Exhi¬bition, now showing at the Museum of Con¬temporary Art (MCA) comes, therefore, as aparticularly welcome event in this city since itdoes much to put Mies back in proper per¬spective and convince even the skepticalviewer that Mies’ reputation is not quite so ill-deserved. This exhibition, which opened at theMuseum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York,and leaves for Berlin on August 10, is the mostcomprehensive exhibition on Mies to date.It is fitting that the exhibition should haveopened at MoMA. A landmark exhibition at thatinstitution in 1932 introduced a new generationof European architects — Gropius, Mies. Oud,Corbusier — to the US and its catalogue (laterpublished as a book) by Henry Russell Hitch¬cock and Philip Johnson introduced a new term— the “International Style — to describe theirwork. Mies was enthusiastically hailed as thebest of the lot. and in 1947 — by which time hehad moved to Chicago — another exhibition atMoMA confirmed his stature as a major ex¬positor of the modernist movement. Since thenmodernism has apparently died, and the Inter¬national Style has been routinely reviled byVenturi, Stern, and their cohorts, and evenabandoned by Johnson. Postmodernism re¬placed modernism, inflicted atrocities like theState of Illinois Center on a trusting Chicagopublic, and over the last five years, mercifully,began to decline. All this has led to a renewedinterest in Mies which cannot entirely be attri¬buted to the occurrence of his centenary thisyear. It is to be hoped that out of this interestthere will emerge a more balanced assessmentof Mies' stature as an architect than either theinitial accolades or the subsequent vilificationever managed to offer.This exhibition can do much to help. Itconsists of over 450 drawings and photographsof 92 builds and projects Mies designed. 10large models of his buildings, and examples ofall the furniture he designed, some original andothers in mass-produced modern versions.About equal space is devoted to Mies’ first, orGerman phase and to his second, or Americanphase The first phase, during which Miesemerged as a major exponent of the so-calledInternational Style, also seen him at his in¬novative best. During this period he designedDIVEST NOW very much more than he actually built, as withany young architect The Exhibition pays con¬siderable attention to these unbuilt projects, asis very appropriate, since these are often moreunconventional (modernist) in design than any¬thing clients allowed him to build These in¬clude large renderings and models of theFriedrichstrasse Office Building (1921) andGlass Skyscraper (1922) projects, neither ofwhich Mies probably expected to build but bothof which show more concerted use of glassthan what any architect (including Gropius) hadattempted up to that time. Huge renderings alsoshow the Concrete Country House Project(1923) and. finally, the Brick Country HouseProject (1923-24) in whose pin-wheel plan Miesachieved a more dynamic free-flowing spacethan in anything he ever built.Mies’ major project around this time was theWeissenhofsiedlung Housing Colony (1925-27)in Stuttgart which was designed by sixteenarchitects including Gropius, Behrens, Oud.and Corbusier under his direction. This projectwhich, more than anything previous to it, dem¬onstrated the emergence of a consistent, “uni¬versal” modernist style, immediately found it¬self at odds with Germany’s emerging Aryannationalism. It was immediately accused ofbeing “Mediterranean” because of the whitewalls and flat roofs, and an anonymous tricked-up photograph showing Arabs and camelsaround the buildings soon began to be used toattack the modernists. On display at the exhibi¬tion is a post-card with this tricked-up photo¬graph. sent by Alfred Barr to MoMA in 1933.Another major project of this period is thefamous Barcelona Pavillion, of which there is awell-constructed model. Also around are sev¬eral modern mass-produced Barcelona chairsfor visitors to use. These are the only Miesfurniture in the exhibition that can actually beused, and since they are quite comfortable(wide enough for couples), and generally cost about $2,000 these days, it is well worth theopportunity. The Tugendhat House (1928-30),the major building that Mies constructed to¬wards the end of his German phase, of course,finds detailed representation. More interestingthan the Tugendhat House, though, are thedrawings for the Krefeld Golf Club (1930) with adynamic pin-wheel plan with three arms, two ofwhich are hooked. It is a pity that this structurewas never completed due to a series of econ¬omic crises: it is Mies’ most dynamic structurethat got beyond the planning stage.Even more interesting are various CourtHouse Projects of the late 1930’s and otherstructures such as the Mountain House for theArchitect, Tyrol (c. 1934) "bll of which weresketched and designed to various stages ofcompletion but never built. The sketches of thecourt houses show incorporation of variousaspects of the Barcelona Pavilion into resi¬dential buildings much more than even in theTugendhat House. The Mountain House for thearchitect and some other similar structures beara striking resemblance to the FarnsworthHouse (1946-51). It appears from thesesketches that the symmetric, static space, andeven the occasional minimalism that dominatedMies' American phase were already emergingin the 1930’s. These sketches are yet to receiveadequate critical attention. They are givenextremely cursory treatment by Franz Schulzein his recent widely-acclaimed biography ofMies, and even a book by Wolf Tegethoffdevoted to them (Die Villen und Lan-hausprojekte von Mies van der Rohe 1981;English translation, 1985) is scanty on analysis.Far less interesting in Chicago is the latterAmerican phase of Mies’ career; perhaps be¬cause 30 of his buildings, including most of hisworst designs, are on permanent “live” displayin this city. The Promonotory Apartments, in ahuge photograph, look as unattractive as ever.All the same, in spite of these parochial reser¬ vations about its merit, Mies’ style does un¬dergo an important and interesting changeduring this phase of his career. The dynamicspaces of the 1920’s give way to static, sym¬metric ones and, except in the sky scrapers,these spaces gradually become bigger andbigger. The only major innovation is the designof sky scrapers with elevators and utilitiescollected around central axes, thereby freeingfloor-plans from unnecessary encumbrances.All this is history, and no matter what judg¬ement is formed of the later Mies, the exhibitionis meticulous in showing detail of his develop¬ment.Of particular interest, from this phase, is theFarnsworth House in Plano, Illinois. It doescome as a welcome surprise, even if onlybecause — in spite of being in a Chicagosuburb — its private ownership makes it one ofthe most inaccessible of Mies’ buildings. Boththe model and the huge water-color rendering,probably the only one Mies ever did in water-color, pay ample tribute to the building’s mini¬malist aesthetic. But the Farnsworth house isan exception. This part of the exhibition is morerelevant to a Berlin (or, perhaps, even a NewYork) audience. In Chicago it lacks interest.Even the New National Gallery (1962-67) inBerlin barely comes as a surprise — GeneSummers' McCormick Place has shown what toexpect.MoMA’s Arthur Drexler, who curated theshow, has indeed put up a magnificent per¬formance. The exhibition, which apparentlycontains each place that was on display atMoMA, occupies every available square cen¬timeter at MCA without giving the impression ofbeing cramped. However, some models, in¬cluding those of the Glass Skyscraper and theFriedrichstrasse Office Building, are mountedon platforms almost six feet high and cannot beviewed from a proper perspective. The model ofthe Berlin New National Gallery is also some¬what deficient in that it simply omits the build¬ing's lower level. Occasionally the captions areconfusing. That next to the Mountain House forthe Architect sketch promises more detail on adisplay table "nearby” and, yet. no such tableis around. The most unfortunate aspect of theexhibition, however, is the absence of a cat¬alogue. Neither of MoMA's two publications onMies this year are yet available and are notintended as catalogues for the exhibition. Oneis an “oral history,” reflections on Mies by hisassociates, and tr.e other a mammoth four-volume work containing all his drawings up to1938 (priced at $800). A $1.50 booklet on Miesin Chicago put out by MCA hardly fills the void.These flaws notwithstanding, this exhibitionremains one of the most fascinating shows onarchitecture in recent times.
