Ann CzyzewskiStaff WriterThe University of ChicagoMedical Center has been receiv¬ing significantly more traumaemergency cases since it waschosen by the Chicago Depart¬ment of Health as one of nineChicago/suburban trauma cen¬ters.The new trauma system is theresult of an amendment to theChicago’s hospital ordinanceapproved last November by thecity council. The hospitalschosen as trauma centers mustprovide emergency medicinecare, including surgery, on a 24hour basis. The six city centerschosen are the U of C, MichaelReese Hospital, Cook CountyHospital, Northwestern Memo¬rial, Illinois Masonic and WeissMemorial. The three centersoutside city limits are ChristHospital, Loyola University andLutheran General.Dr. James B. Nolin, residentat the Department of Erne-regency Medicine at the U. of C.Medical Center, noted that thenew trauma -system is muchbetter than the older systemunder which injured personswere taken to the nearest hospi¬tal emergency room. Not allhospitals are equipped with thehigh level of emergency servicesneeded by the 5-10% of people injured in vehicle accidents, shotor otherwise wounded. Studies ofemergency care show 4 out of 5of such victims can be saved ifthey receive top care. Thetrauma centers are prepared tohandle these cases demandingspecialized care within minutes.In May, hospital officials pre¬dicted that the number of emer¬gency cases would increase by150 per year. However, withinthe first six weeks as a traumacenter, the hospital handled 138extra cases. James B. Nolin,resident at the Department ofEmergency Medicine, attributedthe rise in cases to the fact thatthe medical center is handlingthe trauma care for a large partof Chicago. The number of casesmay also be due, in part, to theseasonal time, as a greater per¬centage of accidents and crimeoccur in the spring and summermonths.Along with this increase of pa¬tients requiring emergencytreatment, the hospital had todeal with an even bigger. ..change: the higher patient in¬flow from the clinics and refer¬rals. Both these changes oc¬curred only within this year,causing a patient overload in theemergency rooms, staffed oper¬ating rooms and staffed in¬tensive care units. The hospital, meanwhile, hasadopted temporary solutions.The emergency room situation ishandled by treating those withmore serious injuries first, re¬sulting in longer waits for otherpatients. To prevent backing upin the operating rooms and theIntensive Care Unit (ICU), amajor concern, the doctors relyon communication with par¬amedics by radio. If the oper¬ating rooms or ICU are at fullcapacity and the hospital rec¬eives a radio message from aparamedic that they are bring¬ing in a trauma victim, doctorscan then direct the ambulance or helicopter with the patient to thenext nearest trauma center:either Michael Reese Hospital orChrist Hospital. If a back-updoes occur within the hospital,the trauma patient is trans¬ferred in the most efficient waypossible to either Cook CountyHospital or Michael Reese Hos¬pital where proper facilities willbe available.Long term solutions includethe hiring of more staff so thatmore operating rooms and in¬tensive care units can be openedup for use. This is being handledby the administration and Nurs¬ing Department. Rapist rspatternappearsBy Molly McClainManaging EditorA criminal sexual assault oc¬curred Monday, August 11 on the5400 block of Kenwood Avenue.According to Robert Mason, di¬rector of the South East ChicagoCommission, the assault ties inwith two other attacks thissummer.On August 11 at 2am. an 18-year-old woman was walking toa friend’s home when she wasaccosted on 55th Street by a manwho reportedly dragged her intoa gangway and assaulted her.Mason said. The attacker re¬portedly told the victim that hehad a gun but the victim did notsee it.The attacker is described as ablack male. 25-30 years of age,5'10” to 6' tall, weighing 170 to180 pounds. He is described ashaving brown eyes, black hairand a dark complexion.Both the description of the at¬tacker and the location in whichthe attack occurred lead policeto believe that the assault islinked with three criminal sex¬ual assaults which occurredearlier this summer. Masonsaid. One attack allegedly tookplace on the 5400 block of SouthBlackstone Avenue on July 2. A24-year-old Hyde Park womanstated that at 11:45pm a manapproached her from behind andpulled her into the gangway. Theattacker reportedly demandedmoney and the victim gave him$40. Subsequently, the manchoked the victim, struck herabout the face and sexually as¬saulted her. He was not reportedto have been carrying a weaponThe victim described the at¬tacker as black. 6 feet tall,weighing 170 pounds. He wasdescribed as approximately age35 with a square face. At thetime of the crime he wore a long-sleeve tan shirt and dark brownpolyester pants.The previous criminal sexualassault following a similardescription occurred on June 11on the 5400 block of KimbarkAvenue According to police re¬ports, an attempted rape of a 19-year-old woman was reported tohave taken place on the groundscontinued on page 2Harassment Committee to form in FallMeanwhile a Hyde Park resident comments on securityBv Larrv KavanaghStaff WriterAccording to Nancy Maull, thedean of students in the Univer¬sity, President Gray has author¬ized the formation of a specialcommittee to investigate com¬plaints of security harassmentof students.The formation of the com¬mittee appeared to be in re¬sponse to concerns voiced lastyear by black student groupsthat security was singling themout for random stops on thestreets. During such stops, thestudents claimed, they weresubjected to verbal abuse andaccused of crimes.Mark Graham, head of secur¬ity, stated that his departmenthasn't received a complaint ofharassment from a student in the past six months. “It is dif¬ficult to tell whether or not thereis merit (to the black student’sclaims) since without reports wecan't investigate,’’ he remarked.He did report, however, thatDaryl Jackson, a black residentof Hyde Park, filed a complainton Wednesday, August 6. Henoted, though, that this was thefirst such report since lastwinter.Jackson came to the office ofthe Maroon last week andclaimed that on August 6 he waswalking behind the RegensteinLibrary at 56th and Greenwoodwhen a “police officer jumpedout of his car and put a gun inmy face.” The officer removedthe contents of his pockets whileuttering obscenities and detainedhim for 15 to 20 minutes, Jackson stated. Later another officerexplained to him that a robberyhad taken place at the libraryand the officer who stopped himsuspected Jackson of that crime.The Hvde Park resident of¬fered another example of har¬assment, claiming that a se¬curity officer had thrown himagainst a tree on Saturday,August 2 and called him “adamn murderer.” Police arestill searching for a black malebelieved to have shot a woman todeath last month.“I am constantly being har¬assed in front of my friends,relatives and neighbors. . . theridicule is unbearable,” heconcluded.Graham said that the case wasbeing investigated, but said thatthe process is being slowed bytheir inability to contact Jackson. There is no phonenumber listed for Daryl Jacksonat the address he gave both Se¬curity and the Maroon.Graham stated that the ma¬jority of the officers on the force,“are professional and do a goodjob.” Given the size of the de¬partment. though, he admittedthat there, “might be one or twoofficers who are acting outsidethe bounds, but those few arebeing held up as the epitome ofthe office, whereas, in general,the opposite is true ” He em¬phasized that officers receiveongoing training in how to con¬duct themselves when streetstops are necessary.“Our officers are proud of theUniversity and want to be lookedon as a resource in time ofneed,” Graham remarked.Trauma cases are often transported to and from thefor U of C: Bologna, Paris, Mexico, andNext stopsBy Molly McClainManaging EditorWhile the majority of Collegestudents anticipate spendingnext year in Hyde Park, anumber of students will travel toBologna, Paris, Mexico andLisieux as a result of the Uni¬versity’s growing number offoreign study opportunities.Presently, the College offersfour foreign study programs: theChicago Paris Study Program,the Chicago Program in Lisieux,the Brown/Bologna Programand the Chicago Program inMexico. According to LewisFortner, director of (und¬ergraduate) foreign studies, acommittee has been set up tolook into the possibility of theformation of programs in Eng¬ land and Israel. There is also“some talk about a program inBrazil,” Fortner noted.Students enrolled in theseprograms remain registered inthe College and, in most cases,pay the annual College tuition aswell as a small foreign studyadministrative fee. Studentsremain eligible for financial aid.The College gives students fullcredit for their work in theseprograms and foreign course ti¬tles, credits, and grades areadded to their Chicago tran¬script. Students of all majors areencouraged to apply for theseprograms.Within the past three years theCollege has been expanding thenumber of foreign study op¬portunities. Fortner explained that “the climate is right” forthe addition of new programs.“This is just a time when in¬novation is encouraged and ap¬plauded.” he noted. Three yearsago the College had no such for¬eign programs. “Students weregoing abroad right and left,"Fortner said, but normally theydid so by applying directly toother universities and then peti¬tioning the College for credit.The College then began to“piggy back” with Sarah Law¬rence University for a programin Paris and with Brown Uni¬versity for a program in Bol¬ogna, Fortner stated. After acouple of years, the Collegestarted up its own programs.While the College no longer par¬ticipates in the program with Sarah Lawrence University, itmaintains the program withBrown.The Brown/Bologna Programallows students to spend a fullacademic year at the Universityof Bologna. At the beginning ofthe program students take anintensive intermediate Italiancourse along with courses,taught partly in English, partlyin Italian, on Italian history andculture. For the remainder ofthe year they take regularclasses at the University. Ad¬mission to this program requiresa minimum of one year of Ital¬ian; two years preferable.Fortner stated that there is nolimit to the number of studentsthat can be admitted to thisprogram, but preference is given Lisieuxto third and fourth year stu¬dents.This year 19 students travelledto Paris to participate in theChicago Paris Study ProgramThe bulk of the work in thisyear-long academic programtakes place in various Parisianuniversities and institutes. Eachuniversity course is matched bya corresponding tutorial forChicago students, and each stu¬dent’s work in the course ismonitored and assessed by thetutor. The selection of a stu¬dent’s courses in Paris is basedpartly upon the requirements ofthe student’s individual programin the College, partly upon theavailability of courses in Pari¬sian institutions Students musthave a minimum of two years ofcontinued on page 2Chicagoan on High CourtBy Anna RentmeestersContributing WriterGerhard Casper, Dean of the Law School,called the nomination of Antonin Scalia, aformer U of C professor, to the SupremeCourt a “splendid nomination.” Thatnomination was confirmed by the SenateJudicial Committee yesterday.Scalia is described as a conservativenominee. He opposes government inter¬ference with the free market and believesin judicial restraint. While considered con¬servative, Scalia is not expected to changethe balance of the Supreme Court on civilliberties issues.An article in the Chicago Tribune notedthat “while he has tended toward the con¬servative end of the spectrum, he has toomuch gray matter to be pigeon-holed.”Indeed, Scalia’s intellect, problem-solvingability and straight forwardness werementioned both in Washington and in HydePark as key reasons for his nomination.Scalia went before the Senate JudiciaryCommittee last week. An article in Newsweek Magazine describes the com¬mittee’s dealings with Scalia as “a lessonin charm-Scalia’s.” Scalia refused to dis¬cuss his substantive view on abortion andaffirmative action, but the senators “didn’teven seem to mind terribly much.”(Newsweek, 8-18-86). Scalia is expected toreceive the recommendation of the com¬mittee for full Senate confirmation in thefall. The committee will vote on the nomi¬nations of both Scalia and Justice WilliamRehnquist on August 14, 1986. Scalia, at 50,will be the youngest member of the Su¬preme Court.Scalia was a professor at the Law Schoolfrom 1977 to 1982. Previously he was in theAssistant Attorney General’s Office of Le¬gal Counsel in Washington. In 1980-1981 hespent a year at the Stanford Law School asa visiting professor. In 1982 he left theUniversity to become a judge on the UnitedStates Court of Appeals.While a professor, Scalia lived in HydePark on Woodlawn Avenue with nine chil¬dren and his wife, Maureen.Abroadcontinued from page 1* Battery & Assaultill Burglary, Robbery & Theft• Automobile Related Theft French to be considered for the Program.“We’re interested in quality,” Fortnersaid.The Chicago Program in Mexico allowsstudents in the College to study for a singleterm or an academic year at the Uni-versidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM).

The attacker, however, heard anoise and fled the scene, Mason said.On August 2 another Hyde Park womanwas the victim of a robbery and aggravated criminal sexual assault in herapartment building on the 5100 block of S.Cornell Ave. According to Mason, thewoman was entering her apartment build¬ing when she saw a stranger in the hallwaytrying to gain entry by ringing the bells.The woman allowed the man to enter thebuilding with her at 4:15pm. As she walkedupstairs to her apartment, the man pro¬duced an icepick and demanded money. The victim gave him $4.The man wanted to use her phone, alleg¬edly telling her that he was calling thepolice because “some dudes” were afterhim, reports said. Mason said that this wasprobably a “ruse to find out if there wasanyone else in the apartment.” After sup¬posedly using the phone, the man sexuallyassaulted the woman.Mason noted that the vast majority ofsexual assault victims are by themselves.“A rapist is an opportunist,” he said, “theywill grab anybody who is by themselves.”He suggested that Hyde Park residentswalk on well-travelled streets and with acompanion, if possible.United Colors Of BenettonCOMING TO HYDE PARK IN AUGUST/MQ beV nellor )JIMMMII ***%’ i* Sr\i£ i | j>*l****mmmmmmm(\ | H-k bene) Ion jV.

AmsterdamThis is certainly not an autobiography; thebook is subtitled His Story, not My Story.Sara Davidson first met the actor in Septemberof 1985, a month before he succumbed to thevarious sicknesses that he had developed as aresult of AIDS. He gave her neither philosophi¬cal insights nor deathbed confessions. He toldher of few regrets. What he did give her wassomething like a letter of introduction to hispast friends and lovers, encouraging them totell Davidson what they had sworn to Hudsonthey would not disclose: the intimate details ofthe actor’s life. Unfortunately, the descriptionspresented in Rock do not describe a person.Instead she seems to have dissected the vari¬ous anecdotes that she must have heard, andplaced semi-relevant bits of them together inquasi-chronological order. All these parts hangalone, with shockingly poor continuity, as if themanuscript never even saw revisions. Theresult is that it seems Hudson’s most intimatecompanions had no more of an understandingof him than any one who kept up with moviemagazines and gossip for the past forty years.It is an uneven portrait of an apparently un¬developed person.Hudson’s maturity was stunted early. Hehardly struggled for his early success: he stoodaround, looking macho and reading cue cards.Even in the often sentimental Rock, his actingability is never praised out of proportion. He gotrich and famous young, which is undoubtedly across to bear. He dealt with his success byindulging himself and those around him. Hedidn’t start earnestly saving or investing untilthe late 60s. There was money every where.One shudders to think what would have hap¬pened had the public gotten bored with hisscreen persona earlier. He gave friends tripsaround the world as presents, and certainly henever denied himself anything. (Rock providesus with a copious inventory of his extra¬vagances).It is unclear whether it is the fault of thesubject or the biographer, but Rock dwells onvery trite eccentricities, leaving the reader withan impression of an enormously shallow moviestar. Some examples:Rock had an aversion to Jell-O, andMarilyn [Maxwell, a lover, circa. 1961)would chase him through the house witha bowl of green Jell-O...He called herMax and she called him Big Sam. Theywould sit down at the piano, put on theirglasses and play Beethoven four-handed, fracturing the “Moonlight Son¬ata” or the “Pathetique.” The tempowould change, they’d try to speed up butthey’d never make it and would fall to theground in hysterics.Rock found he could joke and gigglewith Elizabeth [Taylor] to the point wheresometimes they could not look eachother in the eye without breaking up.Elizabeth found Rock’s laughter warmand cheering; his humor was never cruelor bitchy, it was usually directed athimself and based on a sense of theridiculous. Rock called her Bessie andshe called him Rockabye. They wouldclown, using Southern dialect:“I daz,” Elizabeth said.“No you dazn’t,’’ Rock said.“Oh I daz."“No you dazn’t.”They kept going, laughing harder,while everyone else looked on in puz¬zlement.Right.With regard to Hudson’s two-year marriageto Phyllis Gates, Davidson seems too afraid tomake a judgement as to whether or not it wasHudson’s decision or his studio’s. Gates hadchosen to ignore rumors that her dashingfiance was somewhat “musical” (an eartyHollywood word for gay, and just as appropriateas the more recent term) and they were marriedin 1955. At first all was bliss, as “they hadprivate jokes and lapsed into baby talk in frontof friends.” But soon the baby talk lapsed intofighting: he wasn’t communicating with her.She made him go to a psychiatrist who reportedthat Hudson had the emotional development ofan eight-year-old. Rock laughed, “What do theyknow?"after he left Phyllis and he never ROCKABYE REMEMBEREDmentioned her again, except in relation toalimony payments. Although he had severallifelong friends, several of whom were alsomusical, none of them felt that he would everconfide in them. They had seen him shutpeople out with few outward signs of sorrow,and this kept his friends from prying.Although the sixties were characterized bywar, political struggles and assassinations,Hudson made romantic comedies. Granted,Hollywood has never been too eager to stick tocurrent events. But Hudson must have beenable to perceive the tremendous gaps betweenhis roles, his private life, end the real world. Heplayed an embarrassingly all-American hetero¬sexual getting into truly moronic scrapes withDoris Day, whose name alone evokes images of his repertoire and he was not a good actor.While Davidson can type out pages of Rock'sgiggling fits, she presents information like thiswithout comment. If she was so scared ofdiscussing his obvious emotional shortcomings,she should not have brought them up at all.Mediocrity and decline marked the 70s. Hesettled for TV’s McMillan and Wife, a role healternately liked and loathed Cruising gymsand bars, he would become depressed if hewas not given the attention he was accustomedto. He was considered a less desirable pick-upthan Young Rock Hudson. He woke up verymorning with a drink order for his houseboy,,and he became a fairly heavy smoker. Evenafter quintuple bypass surgery in 1981, hecouldn’t wait to smoke.-r -/s>'“His sexual energy was so extreme, you could feel the heat. Itmade my ears bum.”of a prudish dingbat. Meanwhile, he was livingin his “Castle” (which had a panoramic view ofLos Angeles, even from the bathroom), fallingin and out of affairs with various men (usuallyblond, tall, built and "straight-looking’’) andgiving glamorous parlies for all the Big Namesin Hollywood.His relationships were equally strange. To¬ward the end of his life, Hudson named the twopeople whom he had “really loved." When theywere told, one said "I had no idea that Rockhad cared to that extent," and the other said"He was lying. Rock never loved me. To me, hewasn't g v©ry nice man." Love was merely part When he was diagnosed with AIDS in 1984,he hardly told anyone. What the public knewabout the syndrome at the time was that itusually attacked the gay population, so it is notsurprising that Hudson, a faded symbol of thegee-shucks school of heterosexuality, didn’twant to call a press conference. (Note: at thispoint, he did not step into the spotlight tobecome the “hero,” the AIDS champion that hebecame with his later announcement)He didn’t even tell his recent Gold-diggingLive-in Parasite Marc Christian. In the past,according to Hudson, Christian had threatenedto tel! the Enquirer Hudson was gay. If Christian thought Hudson had exposed him to AIDS, hecertainly would be in a position to blackmail thefrightened actor into the poorhouse.Like any AIDS patient, Hudson became aneager guinea pig. He flew to Paris for experi¬mental treatment with HPA-23, which did tem¬porarily control the disease. At the first signs ofremission, he was ecstatic, and when offered arole on the Big Money Betrayal Soap Dynasty.he eagerly accepted. He told a friend, “I canwork, I can do Dynasty.”It is never really clear if Hudson was con¬vinced that he had actually beat AIDS, or if hejust wanted to die without fanfare. However, hewillfully chose to ignore the requests of hisdoctors that he return to Paris for treatments.Losing battles against various sicknesses, hefinally collapsed in July of last year and had tobe rushed to France, where rumors of anorexiaand liver cancer pacified the press. But, as thegravity of his situation became clear, the needfor an honest press release became inevitable.The announcement that he had AIDS was notsomething that Hudson wanted. He didn’t wishto expand the consciousness of his public, hejust wanted a plane so he could go hometo die. He never understood why he haddone a great favor to AIDS fund-raisers withthis single action. He was an accidental hero.Arguably, this was the only contact he had withthe real world since he came to Hollywood fortyyears earlierIn the course of Dynastys action he evengave Linda Evans a kiss. Suddenly all theethical questions that AIDS had raised, in termsof how private one’s diagnosis should be. werefocused around Hudson: Wasn’t it his obliga¬tion to warn the Dynasty staff that he hadAIDS? When, after Hudson’s fateful press re¬lease. it became clear that Hudson had ne¬glected to tell Marc Christian, this question didnot come up Certainly Christian was at a muchgreater risk than Evans. Is Linda Evans moreimportant than Christian? How could Rock beso shallow? Answer in ten words or lessFor the bizarre death scene, which tookplace last fall, the Castle was populated withfriends, ex-lovers and servants, all genuinelyconcerned about Hudson or his will. It was atthis time, that Davidson began to write theactor’s autobiographyNear the end of September a woman, hold¬ing a Bible, appeared at the doorstep ofHudson’s neighbors Pat and Shirley Boone,saying she was going to save Rock Hudson’ssoul. What a coincidence' They happened to beholding a prayer vigil for him too! C’mon in!The desperate situation at the Castle madethe appearance of these three religious fanaticson the doorstep seem believable. They werepresent during many of Hudson’s last days,holding prayer sessions. Ex-lover Tom Clarkwas managing the house and tending to RockChristian had moved the VCR into his bedroomand was “entertaining” loversWhen Hudson died at 8:45 in the morning ofOctober 2, the Boones clasped their hands overhis skeletal body, and their friend fell on thefloor and started speaking in tongues. SaraDavidson whipped out her note pad. News ofhis death was on the radio by 9:15. ElizabethTaylor had sent over her security force to dealwith the press by 10:45. She made all thearrangements.When reading a biography, regardless of theperson's success or stature, the reader canfind, at least, a single characteristic or guidingforce which justifies their accomplishments andtheir failures What has made the writing oftheir biography a worthwhile venture? Thereaders expect to find details of a lifestyle otherthan their own which provides either an escapeto a fantasy world or an education. Or thebiographer will offer an interpretation of thesubject Davidson gives nothing. I understandthat Rock was written in a hurry so that it couldbeat the unauthorized and less gossipy Idol tothe bookstores, but they could have tried to hiresomeone to get the facts down in a morestimulating manner.Rock Hudson is not a sympathetic character.He started off blessed, by Hollywood’s stan¬dards. He ended up selfish and childish. Cer¬tainly there are AIDS patients who would fly toParis if they could, who would not be sostubbornly set against reality. He never gavehimself a challenge.At best, Rock is amusing. When Hudson,whose real last name was Fitzgerald, met JohnF. Kennedy, the President said to him: "Wehave something in common — we re Irish, andthey say all the Fitzgerald’s are related.” Theactor said, "Oh? Ella will be happy to hearthat " Wait for the paperback, if you can.BARBEQUEKINGSBond with cheap doggies?Call those gourmet guys, theBarbegue Kings.We 'll cater a gnat barbegue atprices lower than you think.• Quality Dogs and Burgers• Keg and Bottled Beer• Homemade Sauces.Charcuterie Salads & Pastries• Handmade Sausages• Mesquite Wood Grilling(3/{u (fflgrchel-INK CATKKINC312. 66 7 .4 600■■■WWWanil Nietzsche• ■ . - ■. .

He, however, is in love withChristine, a schoolteacher, or so hethinks. Charlotte flees, Mathieu follows,and on the lam he admits he still lovesher, until Charlotte leaves him again andmarries in Spain, .while he marriedChristine — all very dull. Not since MyBest Friend's Girl have I seen IsabelleHuppert sink to such a banal perform¬ance. And all because her sister Car¬oline wanted to make a picture to getIsabelle to smile again.

At the Biograph.-87Winter Kills (William Richer! 1979) TheCitizen Kane of conspiracy movies,Winter Kills is a terrifically entertainingblack comedy, with Jeff Bridges as theyoung scion of a Kennedy-style clan,following a byzantine trail of lies anddeception as he tries to learn the truthabout the assassination of his olderbrother, boastfully recalled by his dotingfather (John Huston) as “our most sex¬ually active President.” Great comicperformances from Huston and the sub¬limely jittery Anthony Perkins highlightthe ail-star cast that includes DorothyMaione, Toshiro Mifune, Richard Boone,Sterling Hayden, Eli Wallach, RalphMeeker, and Elizabeth Taylor.

AUGUST 15. 1986—3YOU SAY YOU WANT A REVOLUTION“We still have to place everday life at the centerof everything. Every project begins from it andevery realization returns to it to acquire its realsignificance. Everyday life is the measure of allthings: of the fulfillment or rather the nonfulfillmentof human relations; of the use of lived time; ofartistic experimentation; of revolutionary politics."—Guy Debordby Steve Best and Miles MendenhallThe recent debate (GCJ,7/18/86 and (8/1/86) aboutculture, subjectivity and politics has raised importantissues but has not successfully treated them. CertainlyRobin Einhorn has made a number of valuable pointsin her call to activism in this age of political apathy andself-obsession. However Einhorn's analysis obscuresmore issues than it clarifies and is marred by anumber of serious problems.- The main problem is that she does not analyze thecentral terms of the debate: “personal” and “politi¬cal.” As a result many of her points are flawed.Ultimately she buttresses one of the most damagingtenets of bourgeois ideology by reaffirming the falsedualism between personal and political, public andprivate, and does not take into account the mostsignificant theoretical breakthroughs of the last fiftyyears: those focusing on the concepts of everyday lifeand cultural revolution.Simeone’s reply goes a long way toward rectifyingthese problems. She overcomes Einhorn’s dualisms,sees the need for a multifaceted struggle, and graspsthe subversive power of cultural movements. But sheis vague as to precisely what this power is and likeEinhorn, does not analyze the main terms at issue. Weattempt this analysis here in addition to presenting amore explicit argument for subjective and culturalpolitics.From her first sentence, Einhorn begins a series oferroneous distinctions. To talk to racism and sexismas “worse” than "rotten capitalism" ignores theintimate relation between these forms of oppression.She then draws a distinction between culture andpolitics which leads her to say, "Riot police are calledout to the parks not to deal with counter-culture butonly with counter-politics.” This implies that a routinepolice act, such as a minor drug bust in the park, isnot political, and that a movement such as Punk hadno political implications or subversive power. She failsto see that concern for the “personal” can haveradical articulation and does not doom us to bepassive victims of reactionary forces.To understand the relation between the personaland the political it is useful to look at the historicalcontext in which the slogan "The personal is thepolitical” arose. In the late sixties the New Left wasdominated by males who. in their zeal to combat acapitalist war, relegated women to subsidiary roles inthe movement. When those women asserted them¬selves they were told that the crisis situation did notpermit personal concerns (such as a desire to do morethan type and cook while the men produced strategy)to take precedence over “serious” politics. In theiridentification with militant women of the Third World,as well as their recognition of a common oppression,they understood that their relegation to the back¬ground was as much an issue as any question ofstrategy. “The personal is political. Liberation beginsat home!” However, those same women did notabandon the struggle for pure introspection. Theypracticed a politics which linked their own lives toglobal events.This suggests that a broader, dialectical definition ofboth the personal and political is required, one whichcombines the terms in a single process and logic: thesocial construction of consciousness and the con¬sciousness of social construction. The slogan'“Thepersonal is the political,” properly seen, implies thesetwo intimately related, mutually-entailing ideas, ideaswhich are only analytically distinguishable.The social construction of consciousness — asdetermined through language, social environment andthe media; the shaping of every individual’s behavior,outlook, and identity.The consciousness of social construction — anindividual’s achieved critical awareness that she is notan isolated being in exterior relations with otherisolated beings, but rather is embedded in a Jeepsocial network and is a site of multiple social actionswhich work to suppress, and allow, critical andcreative capacities.The terms “personal" and "political” can be givena narrow or broad definition and whether the personalis political or not will depend on the definition thateach receives. The personal is not political if byATTACKING Aby Robin EinhornClearly I have hit a raw nerve in attacking a sacredcow of leftist thought. Simeone’s “Culture ComesBack” (GCJ. 8/1/86) was a thoughtful attempt tograpple with the conflict between intellectual abstrac¬tion and political effectiveness. Best and Mendenhall,however, have utterly missed my point. They areunable to fathom the possibility that I have drawn fromthe same texts conclusions that differ from their own.Gramsci’s analysis of ideological hegemony need notmandate a “decentralized cultural politics” in whichrevolutionary practice must “be total, embracing allaspects of life.” In his own practice Gramsci foughtthe center: state power. Ideological hegemony is a toolused by the ruling class. Gramsci insisted that opposi¬tion movements be aware of this tool and understandthe complexities of its use. Yet this is a far cry fromdeclaring that every minute challenge to the dominantideology is a positive revolutionary step. The state andits allied institutions (e g., the media) are the vehiclesthrough which ideological hegemony is exercised.Concrete and centralized institutions with strategicaccess to the means of communication diffuse hege¬monic ideas through the culture.If Best and Mendenhall prefer French exegesis ofGramsci, Poulantzes’ theory of individualization mayhelp them out of their muddle. Poulantzes followsGramsci in defining the state to include institutionssuch as the media. He asks what hegemonic ideas thestate propagates and finds that the capitalist statepromotes individualism. Thus the income tax en¬courages taxpayers to see their relationship to gov- “persona!” we refer to the individual as an auto¬nomous being and/or by “political” we mean onlygovernmental institutions and policy. But the ultimatemeaning of these terms cannot remain just a matter ofindividual preference. Each has a referent, socialreality, which bears a particular nature, and which abroader understanding more accurately identifies.Here the “personal” comes to mean that which is“mine” (my body, identity, and consciousness), butonly insofar as it exists within larger social sur¬roundings and processes which influence it. The“political” accordingly, designates the entire socialcontext and its essential conditioning action.The meaning of the term “political” has then beenjustifiably displaced: from the creation of governmentpolicy to the determination of human behavior andconsciousness, from the isolated intermittent actionsof a few identifiable individuals to an ongoing, anon¬ymous process. With this understanding, we cannotsay, with Einhorn, that “The personal is not political. Itis personal.” Rather, the personal is political when it isseen in its proper context, indissoluably linked with“political.”Conversely, “radical” or “political” action is acounter-strategy which aims to make fundamentalalterations in the system of domination. It is in thissense that we can legitimately speak of a “sub¬jective,” "sexual,” or "cultural" politics: a contest¬ation of domination by implicating it in theconstruction/destruction of our being, the developmentof radical subjectivity and culture which threatens theexisting order by creating an emancipatory system ofmeaning which resists cooptation.As is apparent in her discussion of the right and themedia, Einhorn does not deny the formidable influenceof the social on individuals. Yet she maintains thepublic/private dualism. She thus contradicts herselfand unknowingly supports bourgeois ideology in twoways: by adopting an atomistic method that freezesand fragments dynamic and relational processes, andby succumbing to an individualistic outlook. The resultis that all hierarchical orders are made to appearnatural and eternally valid where each individualbecomes solely responsible for her life. Einhorn iscorrectly concerned about depoliticizing strategies, butdoes not see her dualisms as one of these.It is ironic that Einhorn appropriates Gramsci’sconcept of ideological hegemony for Gramsci’s analy¬sis contradicts hers at almost every point. At a timewhen Leninism, economism, and reformism held astranglehold on leftist thought, Gramsci developed anuncompromisingly revolutionary theory based on adecentralized cultural politics.Gramsci was the first revolutionary theorist of latecapitalist society. As capitalism shifted to a society ofmass communication and consumption, he graspedthe increasing importance of the “superstructure.” Herealized that bourgeois power is maintained not onlythrough economic control, or through physical coer¬cion, but also through the control, or hegemony, ofconsciousness. Late capitalist conditions facilitatedSACRED COWernment in individualistic terms. In dividualization bythe media through the cult of the body should beobvious. Poulantzes allows us to accept the reality ofindividualism without ascribing it to the human condi¬tion. Promoted by concrete institutions, it can befought by methods short of total revolution. Thuscorporate advertising might be curbed somewhat byremoving present tax incentives. Senator Packwoodproposed this in one version of his tax reform bill,though advertisers lobbied successfully against it.Public mobilization on this issue might bring greatersuccess in the future. My point, however, was simplythat the media’s cult of the body is a form ofindividualization and therefore a trap for the left ratherthan an opportunity.There is another trap into which Best and Men¬denhall have fallen. Their main answer to my quitespecific arguments is that “it’s all more complicatedthan that” (my words). The tendency of intellectuals topile up layers of abstraction frustrates any intentionsthey may have of acting. Worse yet, they justify thisstacking operation by calling it politics, insisting thatany chipping away at hegemonic ideas will usher inthe revolution. To complete their uselessness, theyshroud their obfuscations in jargon that makes itimpossible to persuade anyone outside of their imme¬diate clique. Gramsci tried to warn them. Every truth,he wrote, “owes its effectiveness to its being ex¬pressed in the language appropriate to specific con¬crete situations. If it cannot be expressed in suchspecific terms, jt is a byzantine and scholastic ab¬straction, good only for phrase-mongers to toy with.” the transition to hegemony through the creation of avast cultural apparatus — schools, churches, parties,media, etc. — which disseminate the ideas thatlegitimate the bourgeois mode of production. Power,Gramsci saw, is most effectively maintained throughconsent rather than coercion. It become most firmlyentrenched when the historical constructions of thetime become “common sense.”While Simeone and Einhorn both employ theGramscian notion of hegemony, only Simeone seesthe logical implications this notion has for a con¬temporary politics. Gramsci’s analysis of late capital¬ism continues to be highly influential in the Marxisttradition. Thinkers such as Reich, Marcuse, Adorno,Lefebrve, Debord, Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari, Kris-teva, and Baudrillard have followed him in placingtheir emphasis on cultural and subjective politics,developing theories of the media and philosophies ofdesire. Gramsci points the way toward a culturalpolitics rooted in the critique and analysis of everydaylife.Our arguments can be reduced to two main points.(1) Reality determines strategy: Gramsci articulatesthe new conditions of domination — far more ac¬celerated today — which require appropriately modi¬fied strategies. Orthodox Marxism and “progressive”electoral politics alike remain locked into a nineteenthcentury, pre-hegemonic model. The initial premise ofhegemony, once accepted, commits us to a broad¬ened "counter-hegemonic” politics which contestsevery level of power as it proliferates and takes rootnot only throughout a vast institutional apparatus, butas it is embedded and reproduced in our everydaylives.(2) The destruction of hegemony demands a revolu¬tionary subjectivity. No one really believes, anymore,that the transition to socialism is necessary, im¬manent, or inevitable. As Gramsci, Lukacs, and othershave seen, the building of a revolutionary movementdemands the construction of a revoluntionary “con¬sciousness,” the initial formulations of which werecoopted, trivialized, and paralyzed within the condi¬tions of late-capitalism.This "consciousness” can be gained, at a masslevel, only through distinctly "cultural” strategiesoperating at the symbolic and institutional levels ofsociety By contesting the dominant signs and imagesof power, the signifying systems that construct andconstitute our systems of meaning and identity, byreviving our creative and imaginative capacities, bywriting and rewriting our narratives and histories, byreconstituting our desiring forms, we can beg:n todestroy hegemony. *■>It is not enough to employ traditional strategies thatfocus on economic and class issues, or even racialand sexual issues (although the latter are key aspectsof cultural issues, broadly defined). Rather, the cri¬tique must be extended into the tissues of everydaylife and must there pass beyond (mere) critique tobecome a utopian experiment in revolutionary forms ofexistence and desire. Revolutionary “consciousness”then is only one aspect of a revolutionary mode ofbeing.An important aspect of everyday life, surprisinglyenough, is the body. Here we can extend the argu¬ment for a broader definition of politics by discussingthe work of Foucault and comparing his analysis of thebody with that given by Einhorn. She would have usreject the emphasis that both the media and con¬temporary feminism place on the body. "I find >t farmore serious that the media would have us devote somuch attention to our bodies at all. Sure, they wouldhave us worry where the feminists would have uscelebrate, but I'm not convinced that this distinction isvery important.”What could be more important than the differencebetween an emphasis on conformity and an effort togain autonomy from social norms? She betrays herattempt to distinguish politics from concern with one’sown body when she argues that politics which chal¬lenge the hegemony of the media are those which themedia itself seeks to evict from public view by its ownemphasis on personal hygiene. She cannot have itboth ways. An action which prevents oppositionalpolitics is political by default.Foucault explored the way in which social order isdeployed through control over bodies. By body hemeant both the physical and mental aspects o'' thehuman subject. Instead of viewing sociopolitical phe¬nomena as the results of action by conscious, desiringindividuals, Foucault analyzed society in terms of theway institutions (schools, armies, mental asylums,medical clinics, hospitals, prisons and factories) shapeand constitute individuals. His radical subversion ofliberal-humanist assumptions showed that we are asmuch the products of forces autonomous to ourconsciousness as producers of our social environ¬ment. His later texts dwelt on the issue of power andhe developed a loosely articulated theory of power asthe lines of force (institutional and otherwise) whichintersect in the bodies of individuals. Foucault delineated the evolution of a shift in theemphasis of power from physical punishment (torture,execution spectacles) and terror as a means ofcontrolling mind/bodies, to their physical shaping andcontrol by modern disciplinary techniques. The im¬position of time-tables; the rationalization of physicallabor, such as breaking down the specific movementsthat a soldier must make during a military drill; and thecreation of a surveillance network of police and policeagents, which guaranteed the likelihood that anytransgression would be detected and the knowledge ofwhich, in the minds of all, causes an internalization ofconstant self-awareness resulting in the self policingitself, are all examples of disciplinary methods. Theseare subtle in their effect and work on the interior ofbody/minds rather than the exterior effects of oldermethods of coercion. Yet Einhorn claims “real” poli¬tics is separable from the body and related issues!We are veterans of what Einhorn might call real orserious “politics”: the anti-nuclear movement (powerand weapons), the anti-war and military movement(draft registration resistance, opposition to genocidalrepression in Southern Africa, Central America andelsewhere), and, in general, the attempt to maintain aviable critique of the present order (Capitalism andAuthoritarian State Socialism). In many of thesemovements there is a tendency to divorce a singleissue from its general context, and a tendency todemand a “realistic” or "mature” approach, codewords for staying within a narrow range of discussionfor fear of being too political.Most of the organizations addressing these issuesfall into two basic groups. Those of the doctrinaire Leftwhose critique, while revolutionary insofar as it goes,is sunk in a morass of jargon and militancy whichcould not fail to irritate and alienate potential activists.The other type of group is the large mainstreamorganization which seeks to mobilize large numbers touse conventional pressure tactics (writing your con¬gressman, walking precincts, etc.) in hopes that thesystem will respond.These liberal pressure groups exert some influencevia electoral politics, but the power of financial interestalmost always overcomes the power of mass appealsfor justice, peace, etc... the real danger in the single¬issue, mainstream strategy is that the organizers ofsuch campaigns practice an implicit elitism whichinevitably leads to their own isolation from the main¬stream that they seek to tap. Their campaigns fortrivial reform, or for major change which constitute“asking” those in power to abandon the system whichgives that power, only frustrate those who becomeactive in them and bolster the general opinion thatnothing significant can be done.In other words, the groups which attempt to makepolitical change within the dominant rationality, areforced by their own strategy to either accept in¬effectiveness, or worse, recreate the status quo theysought to transform.The focus on cultural politics and everyday life isthe enrichment of the subjective dimension of politicswhich, despite some outstanding examples, is gener¬ally overlooked, ignored, or repressed. We certainlyconcur with Einhorn that at present the Right domi¬nates political discourse and that there are conserva¬tive and defeating approaches to the personal whichprevent critical consciousness or channel it into in¬nocuous outlets such as fashion, hygiene, or otherforms of consumption. But to concede the powerfulterrains of culture and everyday life to the Right is themost disastrous mistake we can make. Einhorn has itbackwards: it is "counter-revolutionary” to divorce thepersonal from the political.We cannot, especially today, overthrow an existingorder simply by seizing an existing mode of produc¬tion, as if that act alone were sufficient or required noaccompanying or preliminary tactics Rather, we mustinitiate an immediate questioning of our own lives andconsciousness, our immediate relations, our attitudestoward the “Other,” the quality of our experiences, theboredom, fear, and tension in our lives, the symbolsand images surrounding us, etc. Without realizing it,Einhorn is committed to this expanded form of politicswhen she writes “The system is complex and com¬prehensive... it structures the ways in which even itschallengers conceive of the world around them.”To the degree that culture has become an industryand flourishes in a hegemonic form, our politics mustcontest the cultural terrain; to the extent that oureveryday lives are stultified and impoverished so thatwe no longer can envision a future or don’t even care,we must struggle inside and rebuild our critical,emotional, and imaginative capacities.To make the turn to cultural politics and everydaylife is not to abandon the concerns and strategies of atraditional “macro-politics.” This would only be toparalyze ourselves from the opposite direction. Weemploy “cultural strategies” not to reify culture as anautonomous social level, but rather as a means to anew society. We concur with Simeone and argue thatcultural politics is a necessary, but not a sufficient,condition of revolutionary change. Rather than replac¬ing or overthrowing traditional concepts of radicalpolitics, we are extending and enriching them in anecessary direction.We can hear, so loudly, the Leninist and the Liberalobjecting: you mention things which are of concern tous, but we must identify the most crucial issues —class struggle, electoral politics, etc. — and work onthose fronts alone. We cannot dissipate our forces andenergies. Of course we will create new lives and a newculture, but only after the revolution/reform.But this response begs the very question at issue:given the existing conditions of hegemony, how can arevolutionary movement ever arise and grow in thefirst place?We should learn a vital lesson from the system’spast absorptions of economic crises. Every potentiallyrevolutionary actor is easily bought off with a wageincrease and higher standard of living. The workingclass of this country, once extremely radical, wasdefeated through state force, but also, and perhapsmore powerfully, through concessionist measures. Thecreation of a consumerist consciousness has been thegreatest capitalist victory yet. Until we can constructrevolutionary needs and desires, the full realization ofwhich is understood to be impossible in the presentsystem, there will be no revolutionary conditions, onlyreformist demands.What we seek then are the subjective preconditionsfor an authentic revolutionary politics.

It speaks ofboth uncommon and conventional, yet in thetypically unconventional manner expected fromPeter Gabriel. So has anything and everythingyou could want from an artist's new release, oreven music in generalSide One opens with “Red Rain,” a vividand mysterious song. What is it about? I thinkGabriel purposely writes lyrics which haveobscure purpose and meaning; they describefeeling, not necessarily plot, and are poetry assuch. “I come to you defenses down/ with thetrust of a child/ Red rain is pouring down... allover me/ and I can't watch anymore/ no moredenial/ it’s so hard to lay down in all of this...”Doesn’t that perfectly convey that soaked,weighted feeling of being defenseless in arelationship, that feeling of being mired ininsecurity and fear?In a change of mood and subject is"Sledgehammer,” the current single from thealbum. Gabriel's vocals glide over and underthe beat verbalizing the slick, sleek, not tooslow version of passion we'd want to know andlove. This song contains some of the bestmetaphors for sex I’ve ever heard, and to havePeter Gabriel scream about it... no subtletyallowed."Don’t Give Up” reminds me a little ofsomething Bruce Springsteen might havewritten. With background vocals contributed byKate Bush, this is an anthemic tribute to thousands o? struggles and failed dreams. "Noone wants you when you lose...So many menno one needs..." These are the pessimisticcries of unemployment and death heardeverywhere from England to South Africa.However, the song ends optimistically, withKate Bush consoling that "there’s a placewhere we belong.” I hope she’s right."That Voice Again” also speaks of theentanglements and confusion in relationships.The melody starts out simply enough, becom¬ing more involved, just as do most relation¬ships. The interplay of instruments, rhythms,and harmonies is like a fine musical tapestry.This interplay adds to the image of relation¬ships as tenuous webs of emotion precariouslybinding people together.Side Two opens with "In Your Eyes,” an¬other song which demonstrates Gabriel’s nearperfect construction and use of metaphors. Inhis lover's eyes, Gabriel sees "the doorway to athousand churches/ the resolution of all thefruitless searches/ the light and the heat...”Most of Gabriel’s lyrics, when dissected, couldseem perhaps too simple, yet therein lies theirbeauty. With each line one’s eyes and earsburn with recognition of a kindred spirit, some¬one who can so elegantly express the ex¬quisitely painful and joyous emotions in our¬selves and the world."Mercy Street” is a song dedicated to thepoet Anne Sexton. It tells a story, has a finemelody, and is generally very pleasant.The song "Big Time” takes a tongue incheek look at contemporary competitive soci¬ety. "My house is getting bigger/ my eyes aregetting bigger/ and my mouth/ my belly isgetting bigger/ and my bank account/ and thebulge in my big big big...” Gabriel is very adeptat making the listener realize the destructiveends of ruthless competition and endless ac¬quisition.The next song, “We Do What We’re Told” isa similar portrayal of Capitalism gone awry.Gabriel preaches the Big Brother philosophy."One doubt/ one voice/ one war/ one truth/ onedream” over which "we do what we’re told" isintoned without end. Recent works by other"artsy" performers merely use programmedsynthesizers and drum machines to demon¬strate technology’s hold on current thought andhabits. Gabriel shows how cold and scary theindustrialized present is with ironic lyrics or byutilizing a chorus of plaintive voices who chantin an obedient robot-like monotone.Peter Gabriel has realized all of the potentialthat burst forth from his previous work as leadsinger of Genesis, and from his previous soloalbums. His voice is oh so strong and pass¬ionate, even while singing of weakness, lossand fear, and his vision is optimistic even whilespeaking of despair and waste. The brilliance inthis album shines forward to an even morepromising future. BOOPS ANDSCHOOLLYby Patrick MoxeyThe Boops craze has been getting out ofhand this summer, now even bigger than lastsummer’s "Sleng Teng" riff to which theserecords are in the fast-talk MC style (i.e.toasting) over an electronic track of heavilydistorted, pulsing bass firmly anchored by drummachine beats and hardclaps. "Boops” is aword for a sugar daddy, and the original“Boops” by Supercat has spawned Boopsrecords in Jamaica, England (on Green-sleeves), and most recently here in New Yorkon the Brooklyn based "Witty’s MusicMasters”label.A crucial Jamaican Boops recently releasedon TSOJ (The Sound Of Jamaica) is Lo-vindeer’S'Govemment Boops,” about a teacherBoops who is having trouble because PapaDoc’s been cutting his pay, "One time Boopsused to get ‘nough respect, Girls would cometo him kiss him on the neck, But now Boops isa total wreck, ‘Cause government controlBoops’ paycheck.” That’s just the start of thisman's problems as Lovindeer relates "Boopsused to have girlie style, Girls around him allthe while, Now when payday come Boops haveto hide, The girls fear Boops cannot provide.”The law continues to interfere with theteacher's love life, making him get licenses andpermits in this curious mixture of social com¬mentary and outrageous satire. "Early in themorning from quarter to eight, the girls con¬verge on Boops' place, Beggy beggy but thegirls have to wait, ‘Cause Boops have to buynew license plate.” The title "GovernmentBoops” is derived from an earlier dancehallsong "Government Boots" about the US in¬vasion of Grenada, and retains some of thepolitical spirit of the latter while picking up onthe current riff. Probably the only domesticBoops which can rival Lovindeer’s superbBoops is the amazing Peter Metro "Boops” onWitty Music Masters. This record has fantasticinstrumentation, absolutely sizzling electronicdub which is nicely exposed in two differentinstrumental versions The vocal is excellent aswell, Metro coasting along top the rhythm trackmaking some of the fastest toasting aroundlook easy. Most of the vocal is hard to under¬stand because of this speed, but Metro’s voiceis beautiful, especially in the little break wherehe goes "As I was walking down the street, Imet my old time girl and she called meBoopsie! Do you remember me?” There is alsoone bit which is great because it reminds me of rappers saying "Is Brooklyn in the house?Bronx? Queens?” etc., when Metro says "NewYork posse a cry for your man, Brooklyn possea cry for your man, Bronx girl a cry for yourman, Washington girl a cry for your man.”When I thought of great dancehall sounds Inever thought much of NYC MCs, but theyreally deserve recognition for this excellentBoops material. Pushing right behind PeterMetro are a host of other good American MCs,many of whom are identified on Witty’s “TheBiggest Boops,” a collection of eight reallygood American versions produced by Wittyhimself. Especially good are the ShelleyThunder’s (is this the Roxane's revenge ofBoops?) "Boops a rush me” (“ cause theyknow I'm sexy”) and “Boops a mind me” bynone other than James Bond (which is fitting asit is about how he lives off the ladies). Alsocheck out Papa Willo’s "They call youBoopsie” on the flip side. It’s more old style butquite nice.If you missed last year’s "Sleng Teng"craze, make sure you pick up Wayne Smith’soriginal "Sleng Teng” which is being releaseddomestically by Shanachie under license fromGreensleeves.

The Project hasbeen coordinated by ornithologist Mark Spreyerof the Chicago Academy of Sciences.The process of reintroducing birds to the wild is called “hacking” — the birds are cared forby people whom the birds are never allowed tosee. so they can’t imprint on any humans asparents. The peregrines’ hack site is the roof ofthe University House building. Nearly thirtystories above the ground, the roof is ideal forbaby falcons learning to fly—a rocky, un¬cluttered expanse supported by walls coveredwith ledges for roosting and cliff-like updraftson the sides. Baby quail are provided for foodfrom a chute in the roof. The young falcons aremonitored with a spying scope set up on thenearby and slightly taller Presidential Building. The Peregrine Release Project is not uniqueto Chicago. Peregrines have already beensuccessfully “hacked” in Minneapolis, NewYork, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and Baltimore.Some Chicagoans opposed the project on thegrounds that the peregrines would adverselyaffect the city’s pigeon population, but projectbackers were able to point out that, in additionto the immense difference in numbers (fiveperegrines to hundreds of thousands of pig¬eons), the pigeon populations in those citiesalready containing peregrines remain at ahealthy level.In ail other respects, the Chicago PeregrineRelease Project has enjoyed a great deal ofsupport from the local birding community; in¬deed, it is the first Peregrine Release Projectby Pablo ConradCall it self-abuse: over-exposure to the carradio, battering at the remnants of good tasteand discernment with every iunge at the FMbuttons.

Chaka Khan's“Love of a Lifetime" just won’t do. even at theso-called extended length of a six-minute remix.This is a would-be take two of the brazenhysteria she achieved with “I Feel For You” in1984.Fortunately, a would-be announces itself asquickly as we recognize the stamp of theoriginal. (Witness the lagging snare beat thatturned up all over last Fall’s post-Purple Rainprojects from Sheila E., Ready For The World,The Family, and Andre Cymone.) Don’t look toclose at "Love of A Lifetime.” Chaka’s exec’producer Arif Mardin went directly for formula,and a glance at production and writing creditsopens the door on his whole dirty business.More than a glance and suddenly it’s moreconvoluted than Tyrone’s update of the Kids,on ‘GCI.Credit for writing and producing “Love of aLifetime” goes to Scritti Politti s Green Gartstdeand David Gamson; Green’s breathy male tenorwashes all over Chaka's opening lines. Gam-son samples a Scritlt-esque vocal for the Em¬ulator and then waves it about like a satin scarf,but the whole effect is just so mucn dollfurniture on the living room floor and anyway.Chaka won’t sit down.Why Scritti Politti? Look at this other record,by Steve Winwood. Another wistful title:“Higher Love.” Winwood programs his ownsynthesizer and sequencer and drum machine,performing the same duties as the Scotties’bandmember-producer David Gamson, but“Higher Love” is no would-be remake This onekicks hard and here’s why: even if we can'tlisten very long to Winwood’s cramped-sounding Brit vocal, he writes and plays agroove more bottom-heavy than the Green-Gamson formula, and sailing out of the third or POP APPETITESfourth go-round on his chorus is Chaka Khanherself, holding up the line “bring me a HigherLove” like a flag Winwood threatened to drop.Here’s why you have to pay attention. Sure,Chaka makes this song a personal pick hit,leaving her own “Love of a Lifetime” as abright piece of cleverness. But the sleevesshow another name to rave about and theWinwood project is as good a cause as any tostart raving. All these songs can jack and alldraft serious funkocracy to the Power Stationand Unique Studios when it’s time to make hits.Nile Rogers and Eddie Martinez join Chaka andSteve Winwood on “Higher Love;” elsewhereon the vinyl are Jocelynn Brown, Dan Hartmanand James Ingram. And Chaka’s “I Feel ForYou” combined Stevie Wonder and past-masterMelle Mel.All of these songs, plus Scritti Politti’s FMdebut Cupid and Psyche 1985 are just a bigroad sign pointing at David Frank. Callingthemselves The System, with partner MicMurphy, Frank made the song “You Are in MySystem” which turned up on Robert Palmer’sPride LP. with David Frank’s keyboard chops togoad the single into dance clubs previouslyinaccessible to Palmer’s Bahama-Bht funk rockefforts. There are other System singles: (“IWanna Make You Feel Good”) here and thereon the handful of forgettable records the Sys¬tem made in New York during the last three orfour years.But the only reason to pay attention is DavidFrank’s perverse signature, and now withChaka Khan. Scritti Politti and Winwood, it’semerged fullblown as a formula for the FMband. It’s a talent for staccato and syncopationin drum-programs and a stuttering and hys¬terical kind of keyboard chops. Songs thatDavid Frank works on start and stop almostrandomly, dozens of times, leaving the* gapsand pauses that bring dancers up to the edgeof the beat and then abandon them in hair- raising edit. “Absolute” and “Wood-Beez” byScritti Politti pair Davids Gamson and Frank,and the whole Scritti oeuvre comes across asan extended quotation of David Frank’s neu¬rotic splendor. And the jumpy foolishness un¬derlying “I Feel For You” comes back again toa keyboard-and-sequencer credit for the sameMr Frank. On the car radio, “Who’s Johnny?"by the execrable El DeBarge works momen¬tarily as a Scrittified reference, again, to DavidFrank.When Frank re-emerges as anything morethan a reference, we’re faced with such contri¬butions as his parts on the Steve Winwoodrecord. Locating him here calls for somegreater discernment, though. The chatteringkeyboard artistry and now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t drum lines and clap tracks have been leftto the would-be’s and acolytes. Here DavidFrank directs his quirky grace and otherworldlysense of time to the arranging and performanceof horn parts, mostly executed singlehandedlyon synthesizer, presumably whichever key¬boards weren’t monopolized by Winwood him¬self. On two tracks — one of which will be thefollow-up single to “Higher Love" — the hornsare actually live...imagine! and rendered by asection of five players fronted by RandyBrecker.The parts are restrained, simple, almostclassically inclined toward the great brass sec¬tions on late 60’s and early 70’s R & B. fromplaces like the Memphis of Al Green and KingCurtis, or Ailen Toussaint’s New Orleans. Andthis from a studio tech freak in the throes ofmicrochip passion. “You’re sounding good tome now; keep talking on,” sings Steve Wind-wood on the foliow-up “Freedom Overspill,”and then, “I want to hear the worst.” Here, theworst is gorgeous, a lode of brass and synthetichorns that life up out of the dense backgroundin angular thrusts and punches, with just a hintof the insanity that marks it a product of DavidFrank’s hot-house imagination.It’s the reward of the jaded appetite, that if.itwill settle for almost anything, a moment, abridge, or ambient snare-sound, somethingdelicious is bound to turn up.by Stefan KerteszBenetton, Inc. has established a bold, newslogan for itself, "The United Colors of Benet¬ton.” I have the feeling I’m slightly late incatching the new advertising campaign, and yeti have reasons to wish I had missed it entirely.“The Catalog” for fall 1986, found its wayinto my apartment by sheer mistake. I hadsomehow picked up the neighbors' junk mail.What found its way into my hands by accident,however, left the desk of Benetton’s CatalogDivision Director with only the most carefulpreparations.The intention behind the thirty-odd pages ofbright young faces representing an appealingvariety of ethnic backgrounds—some Black,some Asian, most white—isn’t difficult to dec¬ode. Previous advertisers have successfully ledus to believe that in buying a pair of jeans we’rebuying a shapely fanny, an improved romanticlife, perhaps a higher standard of living. Thebright minds at Benetton, on the other hand,appear to have decided to capitalize on morelofty sentiments. Their multi-racial ensemble ofpert models argues that racial and internationalpeace are just around the corner. Interculturalharmony exists the moment people (who havethe money) can outfit themselves in the Fair Islepullover ($79) or perhaps “The indispensablerugby” ($39).Across these slick pages one witnesses amasterful attempt to stir the cravings of thesociety-conscious; a young Black woman laysher head on the shoulder of an immaculateWASP, the Japanese holds hands with theDane, the young Arab places his arm about theshoulder of an English girt. The argumentlinking "pullover” with “peace” is a bit sim¬plistic to say the least.When interviewed by phone, Annick Cooper,director of Benetton’s Catalog Division, did notagree with my characterization of the cam¬paign. The Benetton advertisers considerthemselves the breakers of new advertisingground, putting people of different geneticbackgrounds in the same photo and all. “Thereare lots of different colors," Cooper offered asthe idea behind the campaign, "nobody’s betteror worse than anybody else, they’re just differ¬ent people "Nice idea, Ms. Cooper, but your catalogmakes a far shallower statement than you think.Despite its cute treatment of the aestheticdifferences between people, the catalog abso¬lutely ignores, if not denies, the more sub¬stantive political and cultural differences which UNSAVORY COLORS OF BENETTONmust be considered before intercultural har¬mony can ever be achieved Benetton canshow any suburbanite a picture of a prettyBlack and a pretty white in expensive clothingand thus nudge them into thinking “these twopeople are different, but united.” If Benettonwere then to ask the suburbanite what theythink of the South Side, they would find out howlittle ground they had actually broken. It’s onlyafter people have acknowledged the real dif¬ferences of political interest and cultural moresthat a statement such as “we are all one”carries any real weight.With its array of well-manicured models inpretty clothing, Benetton’s photographers sim¬ply offer people a way to enjoy the sense ofintercultural harmony without ever having tothink about other cultures.When I presented the argument that Benet¬ton’s campaign offered a distressingly simplisticapproach to the problem of intercultural con¬flict, Cooper responded, "that’s putting to muchinto it., that’s thinking it through to the point ofnot going forward.” The marketing division atBenetton would prefer that its audience notthink quite so much on the message carried bytheir advertisement. Rather, we should appre¬ciate the ad in the way it was intended to beappreciated, which should lead us to buy theirwares.I don’t feel entirely comfortable condemningBenetton for its cute but crass commercialism.We do live in a capitalistic culture. The mani-A real funny way to sell sweaters pulation and reinterpretation of society's goals,myths, etc. for the sake of making a sale lie atthe very essence of capitalism. For whateverit’s worth, it fuels our economy.And yet, reflected in Benetton’s effort toportray themselves as purveyors of peace andunity, I find on the inside front-cover thepresentation of one little myth that jars me intoquestioning the value of this great capitalisticendeavor. Benetton’s advertisers, in a stroke ofidiocy, decided what they thought the perfectlittle Jew should look like. The perfect little Jewhas the black hat of his eastern Europeanforefathers, payees (men’s braids) danglingdown the sides of his head. So far it’s cute. Theperfect little Jew in this photograph looksshrewdly at the photographer; he clutches asmall plastic globe with dollar bills coming outof it. Perfect little, greedy little Jew.Cooper told me this photo was "tongue-in-cheek.” This part of the campaign was in¬tended “to typecast people in a fun sort ofway.” I suppose my family’s experiences withNazi labor camps left me inadequately pre¬pared to appreciate this picture. Had I antici¬pated this brand of humor, I might have ex¬pected the photographers to produce a “ghettoblaster” in the Black boy’s hand, a machinegun in the Arab’s.The catalog division director epitomized herdiscussion of the “typecast” photos (found onthe inside cover of the catalog) with this state¬ment: “We’re not making value judgements,not at all.” I think she meant that Benetton’sadvertisers do not intend to imply that Jews areby nature greedy. Someone in Benetton’s cat¬alog division, however, has clearly made thevalue judgement that presentation of a ratherdangerous myth, is justified by the fact that itwill help sell sweaters.Benetton’s willingness to propagate the big¬otry of the “greedy Jew" myth (tongue-in-cheekor otherwise) while selling its audience onintercultural harmony shows something of itstrue colors: bright, cute, not quite united, whollyinsulting.Note: Benetton’s catalog and other majormedia campaigns are orchestrated out of cen¬tral offices in New York and Paris and do notnecessarily reflect the opinions of individualstoreowners, who carry the Benetton name andproducts on a franchise basis. not to be underwritten by a major universityCosts have been kept down by the donation ofservices, such as those of the vet at the LincolnPark Zoo who presided over the banding of thebirds, and the volunteer hack-site attendants,who initially manned the spying scope on thePresidential Building twenty-four hours a day.The Illinois Department of Conservation (DOC)chipped in by lending a plane, so that potentialhack-sites could be identified aerially.Nearly three weeks after their release, all fiveperegrines appear to be doing well. They haveearned their wings, so to speak, and are avidlyexploring the city, though the hack site is stillhome. No one has yet seen a killing by aperegrine, although one youngster was ob¬served toying with a chimney swift. Never¬theless, a decrease in quail consumption in¬dicates that they are beginning to feed in¬dependently.Still, the future is far from certain. The firstyear mortality rate for peregrines is sixty toseventy percent, and twenty percent after that.“If three of these birds are still alive this timenext year,” says Spreyer, “I will be veryhappy.” To further complicate matters, it is notknown whether these peregrines will migrate ornot, and if so, whether they will return toChicago, or to another city, or perhaps to amore natural setting. At any rate, if the projectcontinues to be successful, Spreyer plans torelease ten or twelve new peregrines next year,and even more the following year. The birdsjust released will take three years to matureand begin breeding, at which time new releaseswill have to be at least five miles away from anynest site, since mature peregrines defend alarge territory and will not tolerate the intrusionof several strange peregrines, regardless ofage.As a part of the overall picture of efforts topreserve endangered bird species, the Per¬egrine Release Project is a bright and rareexample of a situation where the reintroductionof captive birds to the wild is a viable pos¬sibility. Peregrines have two crucial advantagesover most other endangered species that en¬able such a strategy to be employed. First, theyadapt easily to an urban habitat. In fact, citiesare the preferred released site for peregrinesbecause there the young falcons are safe¬guarded from their chief predator, the GreatHorned Owl. Second, peregrines are bred byprivate falconers for sport, ensuring the main¬tenance of a large and intact gene pool incaptivity.In general, explains Sue Lauzon of theIllinois DOC, the dramatic technique of rein¬troducing a species is usually not the correctsolution to a particular problem; one mustconsider all the possibilities. Often the reasonfor the decline of a species in a particular areais either unknown or known but unremediedThe Peregrine’s downfall is attributed largely tothe presence in the environment of DDT, a toxicchemical commonly used in pesticides until itwas banned in the mid-1970s Perched at thetop of their food chain, peregrines ingestedlarge amounts of DDT, whose metabolic by¬products interfere with egg shell constructionsuch that the eggshells are too thin ana breakeasily. The concentration of DDT in the localenvironment has declined substantially sincethen so if the newly released city peregrineseventually expand their range beyond city lim¬its, they should be able to survive.But even if suitable habitat for release isavailable, the number of birds in captivity maynot be large enough to risk their release to anuncontrolled and more hostile environment, orthe captive birds may be too generically differ¬ent from their wild counterparts. In the case ofthe peregrine falcon, the actual subspecies thatonce inhabited the eastern United States is stillvery much extinct. The released falcons are“the next best thing,” and as a group arecomposed of more than one subspecies. Thedifferences between subspecies are generallyvery slight, and do not interfere with breeding.Because of these obstacles, most conserva¬tion efforts are directed toward bird and animalpopulations still existing in the wild. For the vastmajority of endangered species, the problem isloss of habitat due to encroaching humandevelopment or a decline in habitat quality dueto man-made pollution and waste dumping. TheIllinois DOC presents the startling statistic that“today only 1% of the original grasslands and10% of the State’s forests remain.” So con¬servation organizations concentrate on in¬directly benefiting endangered species viahabitat preservation, acquisition, and en¬hancement.The Chicago Audobon Society, for example,acts as a grass-roots enforcement agency toensure that local and state governments, aswell as private contractors, obey federal regu¬lations on the development of land inhabited byendangered species or of any wetlands. TheAudobon Society is currently involved in thefight to preserve the marshes at Lake Calumeton the South Side against the Chicago WasteManagement Bureau, which would like to usethe wetlands as dump sites.The Illinois DOC often targets specific spe¬cies for assistance. As part of a long-termproject, some of the rare remaining Illinoisprairie was officially set aside as protectedhabitat for the prairie chicken. And at Baker’sLake in Barrington, Illinois, artificial nestingplatforms were constructed this spring for theendangered black crown night heron when alarge number of the trees were damaged byflooding. The nest platforms have been suc¬cessful and will probably be applied to otherbird species in the future..
