Held last Saturday in downtownChicago, the march brought together over 2000 people from allover the Midwest.CAUSE joins in protestBy Anjali FedsonWest German ChancellorHelmut Kohl spoke to stu¬dents and faculty from theLaw School and the Com¬mittee on International Re¬lations in a question and an¬swer period on the MootCourtroom at the Law Schoollast Thursday.Kohl, who is visiting theUnited States on a goodwilltour, stated that he “consid¬ers an increase in studentexchanges an essentialprecondition for the cultiva¬tion of American/Germanrelations.” He used the oc¬casion to announce that theWest German governmentwill sponsor a visiting pro¬fessor at the Law School inhonor of Max Rheinstein,who spent forty years at theUniversity of Chicago teach¬ing comparative law.Kohl spoke on a panelhosted by Gerhard Casper, Dean of the Law School, andLloyd Rudolph, Chair of theCommittee on InternationalRelations. Casper gave theintroductory remarks inGerman, stressing the im¬portance of German in¬fluence on the creation of theU of C. Casper moderatedthe discussion and solicitedquestions from the audience.Kohl seemed relaxed andat ease with the crowd. Whilemost people appeared to en¬joy the forum, severalcomplained that it was moreentertaining than academic.A few participants noted thatmany questions were allottedto students whom Mr. Caspercould identify by name,leaving Benton Fellows,students, and scholars fromboth Eastern and WesternEurope with pertinent ques¬tions frustrated. Kohl an¬swered nine questions rang¬ing from the constitutionalityof abortion in the Federal Republic to its trade policywith Central America.When questioned onwhether the political andeconomic integration ofEurope was contradictory tohis desire to unify Germany,Kohl responded “(that hedidn’t) see any contradictionin pursuing these two goals,on the contrary; one is acondition for the other.” Heasserted the ‘Europe whichis commonly discussed ismerely the “torso of Europeand the concept of unitedEuropean community is anidea supported by men andwomen of consequence forthe past two hundred years.“When West Germany’s‘founding fathers’ adoptedtheir constitution they upheldthe right of nations todetermine by and for them¬selves what kind of way to gointo the future,” Kohl ar¬gued. “It is the right of theGermans to say ‘yes’ andsupport the unity of their na¬tions’ rights to allow peopleto come together.”Kohl staunchly defendedPresident Reagan’s nucleardefense posture, “I shareGeorge Shultz’ opinion whenhe spoke of the (the post-Reykjavik summit) situationas a watershed. So far thereis only one direction of flow,and I see no possibility offlow in another direction-—it’s a long time before thewater will reach the sea.”Kohl explained West Ger¬many’s defense policy inEurope; “We are aware thatthis mountain of weaponshas helped preserve peaceand security for over aquarter of a century.

CAUSE,the Committee Assembled inUnity and Solidarity with ElSalvador, chartered twobuses to transport aboutseventy people to Lake ShorePark where the march beganaround noon.The marchers wound theirway through downtown,passing the Illinois NationalGuard Recruiting CommandHeadquarters. Water TowerPlace, the Chicago Tribunebuilding, and the Chilean andSouth African consulates.Twenty officers from theChicago Police Departmentwere on hand to direct trafficand maintain order.The protestors reached theFederal Plaza around 1 p.m. and a rally featuring musicand short speeches followeda half-hour later. KathyKelly, a representative of thePledge of Resistance and awar tax resister, was thefirst speaker. Kelly claimedthe U S. has “$8 billion in¬vested in National Guardunits to prepare for war inCentral America,” andstressed trying to “helppeople who are paying forthis war know about whatthey are paying for.”Susan Urban, noted folkmusician, sang “Somos ElBarco.” “The StrangestDream,” and “Let’s Build aBridge.” Other musiciansincluding Sabia and JanHewitt also performed.Barry Romo, NationalCoordinator of the VietnamVets Against War. asked.“Are we reaching out in therain, in this cold, to otherpeople who should be stand¬ing here with us?” He wenton to say that if enough peo¬ple organized, ‘‘RonaldReagan, CBS. and NBC couldno longer say they speak forcontinued on page 4West German Chancellor Helmut Kohl speaks to the studentsand faculty of the Law School and Committee on InternationalRelations. Kohl visited The U of C last Thursday as part of agoodwill tour of the U.S.Vigil held Wednesday night against apartheid and racismBy Beth GreenStaff WriterIn order to fight the Uni¬versity’s “domestic and in¬ternational racism,” the U ofC Coalition for Divestmentsponsored a vigil againstracism and apartheidWednesday, October 22, from6 p.m. to 1 a.m. on the stepsof the Regenstein Library.The rally’s primary pur¬pose was to “demonstrate tothe University that it cannotcontinue with policies thatsystematically supportracism both with harassmentof black students in the Uni¬versity and its policy in in¬vesting in corporations thatare instrumental in preserv¬ing apartheid,” according toSohotra Sarkar, chairman ofthe Third World Forum andmember of the African Na¬tional Congress.As reggae music played in the background, members ofvarious anti-racism groupsexcnanged opinions and id¬eas and informed newcomerson campus that there is anactive coalition of groups tofight apartheid. “Basically,by holding events like this,we point out what we feel isthe case as far as the Uni¬versity’s racism - we help toeducate ourselves, thecommunity, and the peopleinvolved in the Universityabout it,” stated Miles Men¬denhall, an active member ofthe Coalition for Divestment.According to a leaflet en¬titled “Racism, Apartheidand the University of Chi¬cago,” produced and dis¬tributed by the U of C Coali¬tion for Divestment, thedaily insults to black stu¬dents’ dignity and self-respect at the U of C closelyresemble the “humiliationsand frustrations” which apartheid represents on amuch larger scale to blackSouth Africans.At present, the Universityselectively invests in firmsthat abide by the Sullivan, oraffirmative action, prin¬ciples. Sarkar summed upthe opinion of those at therally by saying, “We thinkthat the Sullivan principlesare irrelevant. They do notattack the basic principles ofapartheid. Black people arefighting for basic politicalrights, not just desegregationin the workplace.”Although the evening con¬sisted mainly of informaldiscussion, intermittentspeeches were also given.Terry Turner, professor inthe Department of Anthro¬pology and Social Sciences inthe College, told the crowdthat with companies pullingout, the anti-apartheidmovement must move be¬ yond divestment. “We mustaddress racism at the vari¬ous levels that it existswithin the University,” hestated. He also noted that theUniversity may end updivesting by default becauseall of the corporations inwhich it is invested willthemselves have left SouthAfrica. “This would be adisgrace for the Universitybecause it would mean thatthe University was less ableto confront the implicationsof investment in South Africathan the corporations them¬ selves,” Turner stated.Melvin Rothenberg. pro¬fessor in the Department ofMathematics, agreed thatdivestment can no longer beconsidered the main issueand that ways must be foundto directly support thestruggle against apartheidand against South Africa.

He was the second speaker ina series sponsored by the John M. OlinCenter, entitled, ‘The Problem of Evilin Twentieth Century Politics.” Hislecture detailed Stalin’s use of im¬moral public policies to achieve thecommunist ideology.Conquest maintained that althoughmost westerners have a clear idea ofthe oppression and extermination ofJews under Hitler, we do not have thesame consciousness of the terrordirected against Russian peasants andJews during Stalin’s rule. Beginning in1929, some 10 million kulaks (Russianpeasants owning 10-20 acres of landand livestock) were deported from theUkraine and shipped into the northernregions of Russia, “and one third ofthose peasants died there.”“We do not realize the mani¬festations of Stalin’s collectivefarms,” said Conquest. Many of theremaining Ukrainian peasants wereherded together into large state-ownedfarms where they were used as slavelaborers.A third implement of public policyunder Stalin was the famine of 1932-33.During this famine, Ukrainian borderswere blocked. The people inside theseborders were isolated from all foodsupplies from without, and subsequ¬ently, whole villages were starved todeath. In all, 14 million people werekilled between the years of 1929 and1953, the year of Stalin’s death. Histactics against the peoples of ari¬stocratic Russia served to further thecause of communism and as Stalinhimself wrote, . .we deny morality.It is completely subordinate to theproletariat.”Conquest went on to point out thatthe terror famine of ’32-’33 “was neveradmitted to publicly, and it still isn’t.(Deportation and the famine) were alldone in the name of a higher good, abetter society.”Perhaps it is understandable whythe Soviets do not admit to this chap-Bv Jennings B. WilsonContributing WriterThe University Student FederalCredit Union (USFCU) will begin op¬eration of an automatic teller machine(ATM) in the basement of the Rey¬nolds Club by November 1.The machine was to be operationalbefore the start of classes this fall butinstallation was delayed due to dif¬ficulty in finding a suitable location.The Reynolds Club, the proposed sitefor the machine, is an old building,and consequently most of the walls arenot structurally secure enough to holda heavy teller machine. Also, the wir¬ing may be inadequate for such amachine. Once a place is found, how¬ever, the machine can be installed in afew days.Even if the machine is not installedsoon, teller machine cards will bepassed out during the week of October27. The cards will work for all CashStation Network machines. Threequarters of all financial institutions ter in their history. On the other hand,it is less clear why Stalin’s practicesnever became a part of the westernconsciousness as did the Jewish Hol¬ocaust. Conquest cited three reasonsfor our lack of knowledge. “Just as theGlasgow youth worshipped A1 Capone,the newspaper reader worshippedStalin,” was how he explained thewestern romance with Stalinism.Thus, what Capone could do for theaverage juvenile delinquent, Stalincould do for the average newspaperreader.Another view proposed by Conquestwas written by a Jewish novelist whosaid that “when violence is so great, itbecomes an object of mystical grati¬fication and not merely a means to anend.” This view explains how violenceon the grand scale can be a psychicrelease for those looking on, un¬affected by the violence itself.Finally, Stalin’s power to mold anew nation was a magnet to many ofthe peoples in Western Europe, re¬gardless of the actual politics in¬volved. People were so attracted byhis vision that they forgot, or ignored,his actions.“All totalitarian utopias,” saidConquest, “tend to be highly rational.Even so, rationality does not ensuremorality.” Utopias here on Earth areenforced by human design, and assuch, “crude and vindictive ideas”will slip into the grand design yielding“crude and vindictive consequences. . . Stalinism justified terror and falsehood.”Conquest saw another evil to thetotalitarian regime as giving citizens afalse sense of community. “In truecommunity, the individual retainsmoral autonomy. This is not the casein the Soviet system. Obscure labor¬ers, lower clergy, and the ‘homelesspoor were attracted to Stalinism. Theywere predisposed to the totalitarianparty.”Propaganda and deceptive termi¬nology created a distortion in theminds of party leaders who “main¬tain led) falsehood continually.” Con¬quest also said that because of themass cover-up of the terror tacticsuse the Cash Station network whileone quarter use Money Network ma¬chines.USFCU members will soon also beable to use the Money Network ma¬chines. Last week the Cash StationNetwork and the Money Network an¬nounced that they will merge and al¬low users of either system to use theother.There is currently an ATM in thebasement of Reynolds connected tothe Money Network.The USFCU picked Cash Stationbecause of its greater popularity.Anyone having at least $50 in oneaccount at the USFCU can request anATM card. Card use will be suspendedand a fine levied if the balance fallsbelow $50. The USFCU is insured bythe National Credit Union Association.The USFCU will move its operationsduring winter break to the pool tableare adjacent to its present location, amove that it says will give it morespace. and famines under Stalin, there is nowa distortion in the Soviet public psy¬chology, “a built-in stupidity . .. as if acertain portion of their minds wereremoved.” Value-free terms, such ascollectivism, merely cover the truth.“Collectivism is nothing more thanserfdom.” Propaganda and misin¬formation only contribute to the evilsin any given system.Furthermore, intellectual “sloth”and apathy on the part of westernersand Soviets contributed to Stalin’ssuccess in carrying out his oppressivepublic policies. “Apathy is alright,”said Conquest, “unless you are one ofthose who wants the truth. Those whodon’t find the truth, but could have,become accomplices to moral evil.”Bv Bonnie MackinContributing Writer“Not until the past five years hasthe subject of nuclear winter becomean issue,” said Paul Crutzen, secondspeaker in a series sponsored by theDepartment of Geophysical Sciencesand the Committee on Public PolicyStudies. His lecture was entitled “Nu¬clear Winter: Climate Changes.”Crutzen, introduced as “the father ofnuclear winter,” was also a part of thescientific team that produced theSCOPE Report, a study of the physicaland atmospheric effects of nuclearwar.A well-known scientist in the area ofatmospheric chemistry, Crutzen of¬fered the audience a glimpse of hispersonal reaction to the global dan¬gers of a nuclear war. “Before I wasengaged in the SCOPE Report,” hesaid, “I simply believed that nuclearwar would be the end of mankind.What was there to think about?” But,after working with SCOPE, exchang¬ing ideas, and compiling the research,he changed his mind.“Maybe there is still some work tobe done. It is just not true that nuclearexplosions will wipe out the entireworld population.” He went on to ex¬plain that the indirect effects of nu¬clear explosions could possibly domore damage to the environment,and, subsequently, to mankind thanthe explosions themselves.The major indirect effect of a nu¬clear war, according to Crutzen, arethe clouds of soot produced by fires,‘. . . especially the soot produced byburning fuel storage tanks and fossilfuel materials.” Petroleum-basedmaterials such as plastics, tar, andasphalt will create a soot that is black,“because it absorbs solar radiation,unlike most other materials.” Hereinlies the problem.Black soot will rise until it reachesBy Lawrence DiPaolo, Jr.Contributing WriterLast Thursday, John Mearsheimer,associate professor of Political Sci¬ence, discussed his views on the Stra¬tegic Defense Initiative (SDI), theReykjavik summit, and the future ofnuclear weapons in an interview withcampus radio station WHPK.Mearsheimer views SDI as an un¬realistic system which is being usedby its proponents largely for rhet¬orical purposes. However, he statedthat SDI does have large significanceas a bargaining chip with the Soviets.He believes that the Soviets fearAmerican technology, and the SDIsystem has become the focal point forthat fear. Mearsheimer stated thatthis bargaining chip cannot be utilizedfor much longer because the Sovietswill eventually realize that the SDIsystem, at least the one proposed bythe Reagan administration, is notmilitarily or economically viable.The recent summit of the two su¬perpowers was also addressed byMearsheimer. He stated that theagreement that was on the table at Conquest saw intellectual sloth asthe basis for both the gulag and theholocaust. “Intellectual duty shouldequate itself with moral duty.”Robert Conquest has published fivevolumes of poetry, a collection of lite¬rary criticism, and two novels. Hismost recent book, The Harvest ofSorrow: Collectivisation and theTerror Famine, was published thisfall. He is currently senior researcherand scholar curator of the EasternEuropean Collection at the HooverInstitute at Stanford University.the stratosphere. Once there, the sootwill absorb large portions of solarradiation (ultraviolet rays), which inturn will prevent the radiation fromreaching the earth’s surface. Not onlywill solar radiation be blocked out, butalso the earth’s heat (infrared rays)will escape into space, instead of beingcaptured by the normal layer of ozone,water vapor, and carbon dioxide. In¬variably, this double effect of soot willcause the temperatures to drop at theEarth’s surface. For example.Crutzen used a slide presentationwhich illustrated temperature changesafter a full scale nuclear attack on themajor cities in the US, Western Eur¬ope, and the Soviet Union. Crutzenassumed that the termperature is 10degrees Celsius on the day of attack.By day 5, temperatures would de¬crease by 5 degrees Celsius. Duringdays 5-15, temperatures would fallanother 15-25 degrees Celsiusthroughout most of the northern hem¬isphere.But, as Crutzen pointed out, “themost alarming effect of the soot is thatit will locate itself in the ‘new’ strat¬osphere, remaining there for monthsor even years. . . Precipitation in thetroposphere will also be greatly re¬duced because warm air rising fromthe earth will stagnate in the ‘new’stratosphere,” instead of convectingas it normally would.Crutzen maintained that it is almostimpossible to foretell how this layer ofsoot surrounding the troposphere willaffect atmospheric currents and con¬ditions. Scientists can only conjecturewhat might happen to weather pat¬terns and normal seasonal cycles. Butone thing is certain: the environmentwill change drastically. As Crutzensaid, “The aftereffects of nuclear warwill produce famines and freezingtemperatures on a global scale.”Reykjavik was fundamentally flawedbecause it proposed a reduction ofnuclear forces in Europe, which hesees as being the only deterent toconventional warfare. Reykjavik wasseen by Mearsheimer as being nothingmore than a numbers game with theU.S. trading off some of its nuclearweapons in return for the Soviets re¬moving some of theirs. He observedthat even though the Reagan adminis¬tration has been raising the alarm ofSoviet conventional weapon superior¬ity in Europe, the president sought toreach an agreement which would re¬duce our nuclear forces, the only sys¬tem that could prevent the Sovietsfrom taking advantage of their super¬iority.Mearsheimer stated that a worldwith nuclear weapons is infinitelysafer than a world without. He cited asan example the past forty years of thecentury in relation to the first forty-five. In the nuclear age there havebeen no major world-wide incidents ofany kind. He claimed that the super¬powers realize that there is no pos¬sibility of winning a nuclear war.The Credit Union’s Cash Station the basement of Reynolds Club.

Ney, who has been inNicaragua for two and a half years,gave a slide show presentation spon¬sored by CAUSE the Friday eveningbefore the march. The Indiana RioSan Juan Sister State project, associ¬ated with the Quixote Center’s Questfor Peace, provides material andmonetary aid to the people of Rio SanJuan.Ney, a graduate of Butler Univer¬sity, did field work for his seniorthesis in Los Chiles and taught parttime at the University of Managua.Ney said the idea for the project camedirectly from working in and around Rio San Juan and the idea was ‘‘to getindividual U.S. citizens involved, tocompensate the residents of theseareas for the suffering they’ve beencaused as a result of the Contra war.”College students from the Universityof Chicago, the University of Illinois atChampaigne-Urbana and at Chicago;Washington University, the Universityof Michigan at Ann Arbor; and KnoxCollege participated in the march.Tom Eckells, a student from Knox,said, ‘“We came to protest apartheidand encourage divestment; Knox hasnot divested despite the fact that Lin¬coln and Douglas held their debatesthere.”Many other groups including theGreen Party of the U.S., the Com¬mittee to End the Marion Lockdown,the John Brown Anti-Klan Committee,and the Illinois Socialist Party alsoparticipated.The marchers walked four abreastand carried banners that had sloganssuch as ‘‘Let Nicaragua Live,” ‘‘Jobswith Peace, we can’t have one withoutthe other,” “Why is Illinois invadingNicaragua? Governor Thompson keepthe Illinois National Guard in Illinois,”“Self-determination for the Pales¬tinian People,” and “Jobs notBombs.”The marchers also sang songs andshouted slogans such as “RonaldReagan is no good, send him back toHollywood,” “Boycott the Tribune, notNicaragua,” “Aid to farms, not contraarms,” “End apartheid,” and “Boy¬cott South Africa, not Nicaragua.”Those observing the demonstrationhad mixed reactions.

When a student questionedwhether an agreement between theEuropean Economic Community andall countries of Central America un¬dermined American pressure against“the anti-democratic activities of theSoviet-proxy government in Nic¬aragua,’ Kohl answered that hethought accords between groups ofstates were a good idea. Referring toNicaragua, Kohl stated, “I have nosympathy for that regime—they arecalling me names. But we concludedagreements on assistance for thewhole region. If we want to preventthe situation in Nicaragua fromspreading to other countries, then wemust help them.”Turning to domestic policy, Kohlstressed the importance of coalitionsin the West German political system. there, out of everywhere,” said DanHordman. “We got shanty s— all overour diag (central campus) too,” saidKurt Gallo.Judith Reymond said, “It remindsme of when I first went to college, aU.S. college in Mexico, in 1973.

TheMaroon regrets this error.One student mentioned that when hewas in West Germany in 1983, henoticed hostile attitudes towardsAmerican troops and missiles. Kohldismissed his question with a laugh,“Perhaps you had bad luck—or some¬thing... the young people you met didnot experience (American assistanceafter the war) and on the account of afoolish education policy are not taughtthis in school...What you have seenand witnessed is an effort to disinformthe German public.”Kohl continued to minimize growingGerman popular discontent andclaimed that the Greens are not asignificant political force. “Youcannot speak of the Greens as a polit¬ical party. It is a movement withmany facets. There are those whopursue an ecological policy with themaximum consistency; then there areother movements, like feminism,” Butthere exists a hard, tough, Marxistcore.” Kohl explained. “I don’t thinkthat you could call this a ‘GreenParty.

Means of advertise¬ment, information dissemination, declaration ofidentity and other motives make the few commu¬nicate with the masses. Be it “No Parking,”“Welcome to Chicago,” or “Eat at Joes’s,” signscarry brief, catchy messages that, if effective,linger on the minds of the passersby.Effective messages often mean that they’re easyto understand. Messages that tell us where we are,where to park, and where to eat speak well forthemselves. But what of those that do not seem toinform or persuade? What is the passerby to dowith those messages?One such puzzling message is displayed on the“Nuclear W'eapon Free Zone” signs seen on Uni¬versity Church at 57th and University. Meadville-Lombard Theological School at 57th and Wood-lawn, and twenty other religious institutionsthroughout the Chicago area.The four-word phrase is read below a depictionof a WWII A-bomb, slashed and inscribed in a redcircle.That description, of course, is hardly neces¬sary—they have been around since last summer.Putting up these signs is the independent endeavorof each respective institution, which neverthelessgoes through similar steps to do so. At M/L.everyone—students, faculty, staff and their fami¬lies—first come together to decide whether anyaction is to be taken. Once they reach a near-unanimous (95%) consensus, a formal declarationis drafted. Not only does it proclaim the school asa “Nuclear Weapon Free Zone” with certainidealogical justifications, but also commits it toseveral courses of action, such as sponsorship ofpublic discussion on the issue of nuclear weaponsand Christian thought, participation in the dis¬armament movement. Of course it must displavthe signsAs pointed out by Mrs Mav Lord of UC andProfessor Neil Shadle of M L. these actions are bvno means the mere idiosyncratic practices ofchurches in the neighborhood They were madeshortly before or after last March, when theChicago City Council declared the city a nuclearweapon free zone: The design, manufacture,storage, and transportation of nuclear weapons inChicago are now forbidden by law. This decisionitself is materialized by the petitioning of thevarious Chicago communities, which people fromM/L and UC have helped to organize. Mrs. Lordand Mr Shadle also see themselves as partici¬pants of a well-founded, global movement; churches, cities and even countries arepledging to rid themselves of nuclear weapons.It is a bandwagon they helped to build beforegetting themselves aboard.“The sign is the symbol of our decision to bevigilant and active,” Lord affirmed. She explainedthat the congregation of UC did not put up the signfor its own sake, but to commit themselves inother actions necessary for their cause. Shadleagreed; he did not even see the sign as a symbol,but simply a reminder for other things to be done.And things have been done, all according to thedeclarations drafted. An example for UC is the“public policy task force,” which hold meetingswith the public to relate current issues to ChristiannuclearWEAPONF»eeZONEbeliefs. The sign is serving its purpose well. Lordmentioned that for some churches once designatedas fallout shelters, the three-triangle signs wereremoved when the “nuclear free” signs went upThose churches believed that, since there is noreal defense against a nuclear war the thing to dois to prevent the making of nuclear weapons in thefirst place rather than to hopw that either it willnever haopen or one couid really survive if it didThe sign is tike one of many buttons on myjacket,' said Mr Brian Kiety. a student of M/Lwho is very active in the movement “I personallywould not wear any button unless I am willing tostand firmly behind it at all costs.”Wearing a button, of course, means that othersare going to see it. Since the sign is more a self¬reminder of the church members’ own convict¬ions. than a message intentionally directed to thepublic, they do not object to the general non¬chalance of the passersby.But, to the people who have paid attention to them, that is not what signs are for. If a sign mustbe seen by all as they travel from one end of thecampus to another, then it is inevitable for them tothink that there is a message directed towardthem by the people who posted it. What, then, isthat message?Of course it is much easier not to see a messagein it at all. Why are the signs up, one may ask,when Chicago itself is already a nuke-free city? Ifthere really isn’t a message, why should onebother to come up with a reaction? It is no wondermany are indifferent.For many, however, there is a message. Someactually went into the buildings to ask what thatmessage is; Kiely acknowledged that for thevarious responses to the sign, some were neitherpraises nor criticisms, but questions concerningits meaning.Some already seem to know what it is. Thosewho like it have given the signs a laudatoryapproval. Those who don’t have been doing otherthingsThe sign on the UC building has been vandalizedtwice already. Last summer it was stolen soonafter its debut. This year the words “weapon freezone” were chopped off, leaving the sign with aneven more puzzling appearance. The “Declarationof University Church as a Nuclear Weapons FreeZone,” posted at the entrance of the building, wasalso destroyed. Concerned UC people now ask thesecurity to watch especially for vandals. The signof M/L remains unscathed, thanks to its height.More acceptable disapproval was seen in TheMidway Review, the conservative student paperWhile there was no criticism specifically aimed atthe signs. Mr David White, in an article called“University Church- What Goes on Behind ThoseWalls0” (June. 1986), claimed that “area tenantshave been complaining of property values goingdown since the University declared itself a ‘NulearWeapons Free Zone and mounted that ridiculoussign A less serious response appeared in theApni, 1986 issue White and Mr Jeffery Bennerdeclared their apartment a Nuclear ProliferationZone.” which was ‘immediaieiy available for theproduction and warehousing of nuclear weapons.”Four words and a picture. The sign is basically agesture of self-affirmation, a pronounced vow-made by several religious bodies to remind them¬selves the other things they have to do for thecause of nuclear disarmament. Though they cer¬tainly will not mind having others being aware,and even sympathetic, of their cause as a result ofthe sign, the message is essentially for themselves. And few things are more easily misin¬terpreted than esoteric messages.lightstyles V/^AV///AV\V/AW^.W.*/AVW.’.,AV.WAV//AV.,AV\\V.W,VAVAV,VA\V///.V.V.V.,A\rV.VV/AVV.W.VVForget the false rumors.

Perhaps you need aprofound shock to bring you back to reality Verywell. I will proceed to disillusion you completelyBeing an editor is NOT fun. I'll go a step furtherOn a relative fun scale, editing ranks qualitativelybelow forcing your dog to take vitamin pills andcompleting the biosci common core corn lab It’strue that as editor you have no one to argue withbut yourself But a permanent stalemate is rarelvsatisfying and unproductive besides.That shouldn’t be a problem, you say. Editorsaren’t supposed to produce They’re supposed tocorrect and approve what other people produce.The word “supposed” in the above, used twice foremphasis, denotes a hypothetical reality Staffwriters who forget to show up or do so empty-handed may suffer severe seizures of guilt. Atieast that’s the theory behind my private voodoodolls. On a practical scale, though, they're off thehook no matter w'hat they don’t do. It’s the editor6—The Chicago Maroon—Tuesday, October 28, 1986 reader in their stones while still remainingtruthful and relevant to the stories.By-line: Editorese for “l didn't write it. Filesuit against so-and-so ”Photo Essays: Eye-catching (large) groups ofphotos with a “theme” which is not alwayscompletely understood by those who write thecaptions (but we try).Staff Box: List of responsible persons connectedwith the publication Sometimes translated ashit-list.Laying Out: Using rulers, exacto knives, ruledpaper, light tables, ingenuity and other par¬aphernalia to create a collage of copy, photos,headlines, ads, etc. from w'hich thousands ofMaroons will be printed The trick is to makemore look like less, or very infrequently, tosqueeze more into less space.

I am well on my way to justify¬ing the theory that “shop” exists in an alternatespace-time continum which would account forthe extremely low ratio between time span andwork accomplished.Now that you’ve read these take heart. You’reas good as any of us. Walk boldy into the Maroonoffice Spout off your knowledge and demand astory In a month or two (or less) who knows? Youcould take over my job who, two hours after deadline, must find or createenough copy to fill out her priority sheets so thelayout crew does not (justifiably) explode.You’re not sniffling yet. Your eyes aren't evendamp. Perhaps you're just annoyed by my in¬dulgence in self-pity. Or perhaps my intentionaluse of journalistic jargon proved w hat you alreadysuspected: that editors are an exclusive, stuck-upbunch. Let me be the one to break that stereotypeI have no qualms about defining inside journalisticterms to the laymen out there. It’s five weeks intothe quarter. We’ll assume you know* what deadlinemeans. The definition varies little with context Sodoes the accompanying panic. For the rest, a briefglossary:Copy: handwritten typewritten, or typesetwords in semi-logical organization intended forpublication in the next issue. Usually charac¬terized by its absence. May include stories,letters-to-the-editor, photo captions blurbs, etcNonspecific.Story: Copy which focuses (theoretically any¬way) on a specific topic or happening Includesanswers to the five “W” questions and, if vou relucky, a few interesting points besides By-linedso the editors don’t receive all the finger¬pointing.Letter-to-the-editor: Not my territory Un¬assigned and sometimes unexpected editorialsusually from one of you “outsiders.” The by¬line follows a “sincerely yours” or occasionallyless polite closure.Headlines Incomplete sentences, often withimplied verbs which attempi to interest afMarvel Comic Mutants Survive in MarketBy Leif RosenquistContributing EditorIf one were to go to a comics stand today and doa study on the nature of the material, an inter¬esting phenomenon would be revealed — preciselythe fact that about 30% of all titles deal with theissue of mutation, a subject first introduced tocomics by Marvel way back in August of 1964. Inthe X-MEN, Marvel banded together five mutantyouths, each one a possessor of a genetic X-factorvariation. This was undoubtedly Marvel’s mostoriginal title at the time for unlike other super-heros, the X-MEN hated their biologically derivedpowers which branded them as outcasts since theyfirst manifested these latent mutant powers. Theyquickly learned that whatever man couldn’t un¬derstand he invariably feared. Thus began thestruggle between homo sapiens and homo super¬ior The concept behind this group was for each tohone his mutant skills so that he no longer poses athreat to those he loves, and can reintegratehimself into a society that will no longer see himas a threat to its existence. In fact, the dream ofthe headmaster for the group, Charles Xavier,was a reality where man and mutant could coexistpeacefully coexist Outside of comics this idea wasnot entirely new as it echoed, in theory, theplatform of Martin Luther King. As always, is probably their best selling comic second only tothe AMAZING SPIDERMAN. The success of theX-MEN is well deserved because their scripter,Chris Claremont, is one of the best at Marvel. Theart, drawn by John Romita, Jr., is on par with thatof Frank Miller and John Byrne, as the artist hasbeen in the business for the better part of adecade. Together these two have produced themost exciting comic Marvel has had in the pastthree years. On top of that, the excitement isapproaching its culmination this month when thelineup of the X-MEN takes its most dramaticchange in the past nine years. Gone will beNightcrawier. Shadowcat and Colossus As to theirfate no one yet knows Initiated will be Havok.Dazzler. Longshot and Psyiocke As with anysuperteam a roster change heralds new situations.comics are a reflection of society.The future for mutants in comics is assured of avery secure place at the moment. Although DCdabbles very little in the gene pool, Marvel hasfive titles that deal directly with the question ofmutants: the X-MEN, X-FACTOR, CLASSIC X-MEN, the NEW MUTANTS, and ALPHA FLIGHT.In addition, nearly every independent publisherhas recently produced one title involving mutantcharacters. In the past four years this topic hasbecome the hottest on the market, There have alsobeen several comical spin-offs of the mutant issuethat have established themselves to rival Marveland DC. One such title is the TEENAGE MUTANTNINJA TURTLES which has experienced as¬tounding success. In fact the first printing of thefirst issue now sells for over $25 while the follow¬ing issues continue to increase in price. It isK’ bly the surest investment bet across thefor serious collectors.As far as Marvel is concerned, they can barelykeep up with the demand for mutants. The X-MEN character development and intrigue. This is onlythe second major personnel change the team hasexperienced in over twenty years (and the comicwith the first change ten years ago sells for $100).I’d like to welcome you to one of the most excitingyears of the X-MEN. Don’t miss it! Voiceof theAnti-JoyceBook reveals folk loreJames JoyceBy Joe Schmitt~ Staff WriterReview of The Mexican Pet: More “New UrbanLegends and Some Old FavoritesBy Jan Harold BrunvandW. W. Norton & Company$13.95 hardcoverJan Harold Brunvand's third book of and abouturban folklore is clear and easy-to-read, enjoy¬able. and at times perceptive. In every way it is abook about folklore for the people who keep italive.The bulk of the book is stories which are short,interesting and. of course, fictitious no matter howplausible they may seem Each is followed bv afew comments on origin or variations which arebrief and which occasionally contain stories withinthemselves, such as the reporter who tried totrack down the “Dolly Parton Diet” (she pro¬nounced no diet) in Detroit. Akron. New York. etc.Beware, though, that none of the stories is trueno matter what you've heard. For example. I read“The Cabbage Patch Tragedy"—What happens to your Cabbage Patch dollwhen it bites the dust? A San Franciscowoman found out when she sent a broken dollback to manufacturer. She expected a re¬placement. What she got instead was. . . adeath certificate and a letter of condolence.(p. 74)out loud to someone who tried to convince me thatit actually happened. Nope Brunvand checkedwith Coleco whose public spokeswoman re¬sponded. “Has that story surfaced again’! Ithought we had buried it. No pun intended ' < “Nopun intended." of course, being a dead giveawaythat the pun was intended.)Like “The Cabbage Patch Tragedy." many ofthe stories will sound familiar, though you prob¬ably heard a slightly different version He includesa few on college life and though I haven't hearcone yet, I ll bet that this story is told in some formon campus — it's been told at Stanford. Cornell.UCLA. etc.At the close of a final exam, the proctorannounced that time was up and directed thestudents to turn their blue books in. Onestudent, hastening to finish a thought, keptscribbling. Finishing, he rushed to the frontof the room and handed in his exam book,one of the last to do so. The proctor said. “Iwon't accept this,’’ and the flabbergastedstudent asked why. “I told everyone to stopand you kept on going. I can't accept it." Thestudent was aghast. “What'll happen then?"“You'll probably flunk." shrugged the proc-ton. With that, the student drew himself upproudly and asked, "Do you know who Iam?" Unimpressed, the proctor answered.“No." The student replied, "Good.” andjammed his blue book into the center of thepile on the desk. (pp. 198-99)Though the book does some analysis and study.Brunvand has kept the book entertaining andamusing. Though a professor of English, he writesin a plain style avoiding an academic or con¬descending tone. The book works because of this— he has managed to capture the joy of telling andhearing folklore on paper.SG requests attendance at Halloween traditionThere is a full-page ad (or maybe bigger) in tmspaper somewhere for the SG Un-Costume Ball.There was an article in Friday’s Maroon. There isanother article here. Student Government officersspent an exhausting summer planning the firstannual all-University Halloween celebration.Why? Perhaps that is best answered in the plan¬ners own words.First of all, why the stress on all-University?- "To show grad students that they pay anactivities fee and sometimes they have achance to benefit from it.” "People thinkstudent government is only for the College.”- "We are trying to find things which appeal toand are fun for evervone and at the same time get the idea across that this is an adult party"Why the UN-costume? What does it reallymean?- “We’re giving suggestions for possible cos¬tumes (black tie, lingerie, toga) but wereencouraging people not to just come in streetclothes. We have a fifties sock hop in thebasement to provide another costume idea."- “We’re making it very easy for people to comein costume. There’s no reason why theycouldn’t.”- “It has a lacivious element, but it is notintended to be a replacement for the LCB ”Why the need for a big party? (Besides theobvious) - “Other campuses have Halloween events.Nothing ever went on here on a large scale.We’ve coordinated with other groups so this isthe main event.- “We had a definite ulterior motive: to improvethe relations between various student groupsand the SG executive committee.. DOC agreednot to show other movies. AOPi providedwomanpower. .." etc.Why all the publicity?- “\Ve’d be awfully lonely there by ourselveswith $8000 worth of stuff.”- "We want this to be a fun and different party.When this is over, we want people to want itagain.”The Chicago Maroon—Tuesday, October 28. 1986—7SPITU/f/CoME/ TO Tht^ fiRSTSrR 7f> oFS?vr/A|\cw A*fto TeeterMVsrlF X'm KAfKA . /\(vlPX'M A Wi losopH/MAjoKc>s■O<yEouC/5fc)>oC/5♦ MOTE Damn it, Jane too areSO SHALLOW ANDONF - Dl MFfNSioNALQUANlUMCLUBE Td6SPOR P^RTtCLERCCtLrRATDRS1 0 7oOFF 1it ,Poesh\ vAo^e t^ocss7.: I Let ms weicj^t ,|-I V 0^*12^ lO-m'iA.OILN6F■fvr^tlecWi^ photon Sf (patronsPLUi —'/•c'SLl; QuflR^1T,— of^ -l^>i0Ae^Si0AO.|Creature s Enter.

All conventions andinstitutions, all belief and purposein living here have been abolishedin the name of freedom, to bereplaced only by his father's empty"experimentation" with anything athand in hopes of finding some¬thing better, something new to fillthe void of life. Arthur's parent's lifeis one of reminiscing-"lt took suchcourage to dance the tango."Arthur angrily castigates hisparents for not succeeding inmaking a better world. He pun¬ishes his grandmother by makingher lie on the catafalque and hisgreat-uncle Eugene by making himwear a birdcage on his head be¬cause they are not acting as hefeels befits them. Desperate to impose some orderor sense on his surroundings,Arthur's first idea is to produce aceremony with an unbending form-a very traditional marriage to hiscousin Alice. He proposes in arather bloodless fashion, present¬ing logical reasons why after hisrebeliion against disorder, whichthe marriage will facilitate, womenwill have more power over mensince men will again be bound byconvention to act in certain wayswhen courting.She departs to consider this, andArthur attempts to initiate the sec¬ond phase of the rebellion with theother great dramatic form-tragedy.Eventually, he goads the idealist ofthe group, Stomil, into going with agun into the bedroom where El¬eanor and Eddie are. Upon in¬vestigation after hearing no shot,Arthur finds Eleanor, Eddie, thegrandmother, and Stomil playingbridge on the catafalque. "Theywere playing cards," said Stomil,"what else could I do? There is notragedy anymore, only farce." It is an interesting story on thesurface, but becomes even betteras it goes on, as exoert stagingand acting give life and emphasisto its symbolic interpretation. BobDevendorf is wonderful in the roleas the intense and fitful Arthur.Arthur represents the mind in thestory; his cerebral convolutions andfrenzied orations are the anxioussearchings of the intellect to findreason and order in a world goneawry.Joe Walsh as Stomil is the classiciaealist. He has triea and is stilltrying to free the world of all itsproblems by getting rid of allorder, convention, and restraint,but he is unable to do so. Havinginvested himself too deeply, how¬ever, he cannot give up his prin¬ciples. He must obscure realitythrough his use of logic, and keepbusy experimenting. He has im¬pressive outbursts when he cannotseem to express himself quicklyand forcefully enough, and thoughhe must blind himself, there are times when he approaches afrightening lucidity.Eleanor (Joan Alison Polner) is aperfect companion for Stomil. Sherefuses to think too aeeply and hasdedicated herself wholeheartedlyto Stomil and his principles. Polner sportrayal lends fine support to theensemble. She Is almost a reiie*after the intensity of Stomil anaArthur, as she is an eternal optimist,and one of those people wnc, in acheerfully scatterbrained way,keeps the world in motion on itstracks.Susan Bond is engaging asEugenia, Arthur's grandmother, anindepenaent and very genuine oldwoman who brings reality to theplay in a strong way. She is anemboaied result of the cnanges inthe world, reality demonstratedShe is mistreated and uncomfort¬able in both the old order and thenewer chaos, and she is the cat¬alyst for the development of theplay's conclusion when she diesand finds for the group the onlyabsolute.Alice (Shannon E Runyon), al¬though perhaps not as clearlydefined as the other characters, isrepresentative of the sort of personwho accepts what she cannotchange, even if she doesn't like it,and is able to love even thougncontinued on page twelve...In sorting through the manyforms of the Dracula tale, onecan not help but wonder at thesource of our fascination with thislegend. The story has been toldby screenwriters, playwrites, andof course, Bram Stoker himself; buteach person who tells the story orplays the part finds that it is morethan a Halloween story to fill thehearts and minds of men withfear. Those intimate with the leg¬end find it to be a haunting,almost biographical, comment¬ary on society and ultimatelythemselves.The tale of Dracula arousesman's curiosity; a curiosity stem¬ming from his attempts at under¬standing himself, his motivations,and his effect on others. Themysterious Count represents for usdeep, hidden passions mani¬fested in determined action. Hisneed to dominate, to be the best,to be unconquerable, and to beloved by all, mirrors our ownneeds. His sexual appetite is sat¬isfied in almost absurd perversity. He is almost excessively eloquentin his speech and retains, even inbarbarous action, the composureof a gentleman.These aspects have led someauthors and directors to believethat Count Dracula is a sort of wealthy Marquis de Sade. Theyignore his mortal qualities of humility, need, and gratitude. Thisproduction of Dracula, strives torecreate his humanity. Aside fromthe cool, calculating vampirethat is so much u pari of our classic conceptions of the Count,this Count discovers pain, hope,and longing. Vampires have suf¬fered Bela Lagosi's anger andsupernatural powers. They haveendured Catherine Deneuve'ssensuality and Christopher Lee'sthirst for blood. However, they stillremain in our memories un¬changedThe University Theatre produc¬tion of Dracula draws on thesemany tales of the vampire, andcollects them with the inspirationsof director Ralph Scherer to cre¬ate for Dracula a soul. Draculaemphasizes how alike we and theCount are to give a new dimen¬sion to our own fears and to openla new chapter in Bram Stoker'siclassic novel.o Dracula opens in the Reynold'soClub third floor theater, 5706 S.|jniversity Avenue, Wednesday,“October 29th and runs throughSaturday, November 1st.

We discussed variousissues and decided to met the followingday for coffee. Then he asked me, "How will Iknow you?" I thought about it for a moment andsaid, "I'll be the only one in the room wearing atie." Indeed, I was.I can use the line about the tie because somuch of the time it is true. In this age of casualattire, where in most situations jean and sweat¬ers or tee-shirt are not only acceptable butexpected, the well-dressed man is a rare find.This is especially true of a college crowd wherethe virtually only tie-wearers are students in theprofessional school and some — not many — ofthe professors.So, almost invariably, when someone noticesmy characteristic ties they ask, "why do youwear ties?" The answers I give typically offer areusually plausible explanations that have verylittle to do with how I really feel about wearingties.Sometimes I tell people that wearing ties is myexpression of sartorial conservatism in a societywhere leather pants and fluorescent- coloredouter-garments are considered acceptable at¬tire in public (where I come from, wearingfluorescent-colored clothes means you areeither a firefighter or on a hunting trip).I tell people that clothes should be tasteful asopposed to stylish. After all, styles come and gobut the last major change in the basic men'sthree piece suit was over one-hundred yearsago. Perhaps in some distant memory of thepast, the suit's function was as a mere bodycovering but now it clearly symbolizes tradition— a reflection of the wearers attitude. Manypeople (especially political conservatives) arepleased with this explanation and take it at facevalue. Unfortunately, it is only partially true.At other times, I explain my fondness forwearing ties by saying that there is a tangibledifference between the way people treat mewhen I am wearing a tie and when I am not. Afriend of mine told a classic story of this differ¬ence. He was interviewed at a large companytwice, the second time wearing a tie the firsttime without. The first time he was called"Randy" throuahout the interview, in the secondMurmuringspotential Mr. Isaacson. He said just from the tone of voicethe people used and the expressions on theirfaces, it was obvious he was being awardedmore respect when he wore the tie.The difference in the way people treat me isnot nearly so obvious; being called Mr. rTioreoften, having people assume that I am olderthan my actual age, things of that nature. Butthe fact remains that there is a difference. Butthis, too, is not the main reason I wear ties.the most important reason I have forNo,wearing ties is that I am a formalist. That is to saybelieve in traditional forms and manners. Manypeople would have you believe that the basis ofcivilization is writing; recording events and thepassage of time. Others believe the move froma violent barbaric tradition to a peaceful, stablesociety is the of civilization. My personal belief isthat form and ceremony are the essential traitsof civilization. I find it hard to believe that writtenlanguage and civilization are concurrent be¬cause of the rudiments of written language areto be found in cave dwellings — artifacts of atime when the only guiding principle was sur¬vival. Hardly what one could call civilization.I also have problems with defining civilizationin terms of societal stability and peace. Therenever has been, nor probably ever will be a trulypeaceful and stable society. Aggression anddesire for change are an inescapable part ofman's nature. And as odd as it sounds, violenceand death are essential parts of life. I suspectthat in a truly peaceful, non-aggressive society,the human race would perish — either from lackof motivation or just plain boredom.Civilization, then, are those collections offorms, ceremonies, and customs which seem¬ingly have no true rational basis. It is not the lawsand political systems which keep us from killingeach other but that thin veneer of social propri¬ety that keeps open aggression and unpleas¬antness covered and'defines civilization. Theworld has always been and will always be adog-eat-dog place, but it becomes civilizedwhen the dogs learn table manners.So that is why I wear ties; because theyexpress my belief in the importance of the minorcivilities that we often overlook. Also, I like theway they look. Tango...continued from page elevenshe can see reality. Somehow,however, her acceptance comesacross as too much like in¬difference.Paul Reubens, as Eugene, standsfor the old order. He is stubbornand set in his ways, but he isportrayed as being a little child¬like, so that we do not hold himfully accountable for what is hap¬pening. Perhaps this is also whatgives him his adaptability andcourage, though he is threatened.In the end, it is he who accepts formankind the domination of Eddie,who represents the beast-nature,the elemental force of humanity,when he dances the tango withEddie (Ned Hale). Together, thesolid performance of the actorsplaying Eugene and Eddie beinghome to the audience the pointthat anarchy is disaster, and orderand intellectual manipulationscannot save. It is pure, mindlessforce and authority that governand provide impetus for the world.The set, costumes, and lighting,although not exceptional, addedto the overall effectiveness of theproduction, but the makeup was alittle heavy for such a small house.The general excellence of thecharacterizations and the castingis an indication of the quality of theplay.

Thecross country team, despite per¬forming below par, did not fare badlyby most standards. Steven Thomasplaced eighth with a time of 21:32 onthe wet, slippery 4-mile course. Ar-mand Musey placed 20th with a timeof 21:56, closely followed by Sean Lovein 22:07, Kevin Nelson in 22:08, andDave Navarro in 22:15, who placed 24th, 26th, and 31st, respectively.Mark Levandowski was the sixthMaroon to finish with a time of 32:30for 43rd place and Mark Sasserounded out the top seven, finishing58th in 23:48. The team as a wholeplaced fourth out of the eight teamscompeting. The winning team wasNorth Central College, a Div III pow¬erhouse. The second place team wasEmory University, who will prove tobe a toughcompetitor in the UAA nextyear.Next Saturday, November 1, the Uof C hosts the MWMAC ConferenceCross-Country Championships. TheMaroons look very strong this yearand are almost assured of at leastequalling their third place finish oflast season (something the footballteam can't say). The meet will be heldin Washington Park and will begin at11:00 a.m.By Maria M. DelFaveroContributing WriterEnding a difficult schedule with aregular season record of 0-8, the U ofC women’s tennis team traveled toCedar Rapids. Iowa to participate inthe MACW conference championships.The women turned in several out¬standing performances in their im¬pressive fourth place finish. LakeForest College, who defeated theMaroons only a week earlier , finishedin sixth place, showing the increasedintensity of the young Maroon team.The highlight of the afternoon cen¬tered on #2 singles player, captainDorie Israel. She ended the day bycapturing the #2 singles title, defeatingCaroline Guip of Lake Forest instraight sets (6-3, 6-1). Israel easilywon her quarterfinal match, but in thesemifinals had lost the first set 4-6 andwas down 2-4 in the second. At thispoint, Coach Bill Simms advised Is¬rael to change her style and be moreaggressive. Playing brilliantly, Israeltied the set at 4-4, and eventually won6-4, 6-3. Simms says of his best allaround player and leader “her over¬head smash was awesome, and shewas constantly on the attack.”After losing her first match, ShawnStevens went on to win the #5 consola¬tion bracket, dropping only two gamesalong the way. Stevens, if not ham¬pered by a severe ankle injury allseason, definitely would have been incontention for the title.Other outstanding singles action wasturned in by Sonal Shah (#3) who losta close match in the semifinals. SarahKhoo (#1), who Simms cites as themost talented on the team, lost in thequarterfinals in three sets. Anu Das (#6) saw her first conference play andpromises to be a force in the future.The doubles teams also showed their strength and depth. The #2 team ofJane Bohman and Israel lost in thefinals to a tough Lawrence team by ascore of 6-4, 6-2. The #1 team of Khooand Shah, who played only threematches together all year, lost in thesemifinals 6-3, 6-1 to finish fourthoverall. Winning an important matchat #3 was the team of Cindy Cockreland Stevens. They defeated a LakeForest team who beat them the weekbefore, by winning the first set 6-4 andcoming back in the second to win 7-6(7-4). They then lost to a strong Knoxteam in the semi-finals.Coach Simms attributes the im¬proved play of his team to what hecalls “Phase II development,” atransition from “little girls style ofplay,” typical of Tracy Austin to amore international style. The advan¬tage of this style of play is that itallows a player to develop a multi¬faceted game enabling the individualto adjust to all court styles of play.Simms states, “If Phase II develop¬ment goes as planned, next year wewill have the talent to compete withanyone in the country.”The end of the season also marksthe end of competition in the MACWfor the Maroons. Beginning next yearthe team will enter the newly formedUAA, which according to Simms is amuch tougher conference. On theirschedule will be two nationally rankedteams; Emory (5) and WashingtonUniversity in St. Louis (top 20). Re¬garding the future of his team, CoachSimms comments, “If players workhard over the winter and spring, wewill feel comfortable entering theUAA, but if we do not work hardduring the off-season we will not becompetitive.” He expects all hisplayers to rise several skill levels asthey continue to develop under PhaseII.Snyder's sports tidbitsBy Ricky SnyderStaff WriterAt the time this article was written,the Mets had tied the series at threegames apiece. With two outs and twostrikes, Gary Carter started a rallythat might give Boston nightmares forthe months to come. Bill Buckner let¬ting the groundball go through his legsbrought back some memories, didn’tit. Cub fans?■The Bears’ quarterback situationseems resolved for now. JimMcMahon started Sunday against theDetroit Lions, with newcomer DougFlutie looking on. The controversialsigning of Flutie could be just whatMcMahon needs to get him back ontop of his game—and in a hurry.■Friday, against the ChicagoBlackhawks, Wayne Gretzky set anNHL record with his 38th career hattrick. Mike Bossy, the injured forwardof the New York Islanders, had the oldrecord of 37. Gretzky also passed PhilEsposito on the all-time assists lead¬ers, moving into fourth place.■The college football nationalrankings will see some changes afterSaturday’s action. Nebraska (3) couldfall out of the top ten after their 20-10loss to unpanked Colorado. Alabama(2) lost to Penn Slate (5/ 23-3, so Penn State should move up two notchesbehind Miami and Michigan. Alabamacould drop as low as eighth.■ It looks as though a MarvinHagler-Sugar Ray Leonard bout is apossibility for April.

Clubs aregiven the right of drug testing duringpreseason and for “reasonablecause.” Kagel ruled “there was noresidue of such a ‘right’ remainingwhich could be read into the post¬season examinations language of the(1982 collective bargaining) agree¬ment.’16—The Chicago Maroon—Tuesday, October 28, 1986 Maroons lose in overtimeBy Geoff SherryStaff WriterThe Chicago Maroons stuffed LakeForest’s Joe Whalen, the numberthree receiver in the country, allowinghim only one catch for seven yards.Chicago held Avelino Cortez, thenumber five quarterback in totalyards in the nation, to 6 for 13 passingfor 136 yards and 53 yards rushing.Senior Maroon Running Back TonyLee broke a modern era record with 51rushes for 225 yards and 3 touchdowns.Unfortunately, the sum of these ac¬complishments still couldn’t buy theMaroons a victory as Chicago droppeda toiugh overtime game to the LakeForest Forresters 30-23 Saturday infront of a sparse rain-soaked Home¬coming crowd.Chicago opened the scoring after afailed field goal attempt turned into ablessing in disguise. The Maroonsdrove the opening kickoff to the LakeForest 31 yard line where Jim Boneb-roke attempted a 48 yard field goal.The kick fell short and after a For¬rester muffed the ball, Chicago guardJim Kapotas recovered at the 2 yardline. Two plays later Lee dove in fromthe 1 for the first of three touchdownshe would score by the end of the game.Paul Song added the extra point to goup 7-0 with 10:16 remaining in the firstquarter.After two changes of possessionChicago recovered a muffed punt atthe Forrester 25 yard line. Schaefertook the reigns and hit John Burrill fora 15 yard pass to the 10. Lee thenpopped a 7 yard run followed by a 3yard TD plunge to put Chicago up 13-0at 13:37 in the second quarter. Song’sPAT failed.Several possessions later, Boneb-roke mishandled a punt snap and was tackled for a loss of 11 yards to set upLake Forest at the Chicago 48. Cortezpassed and ran his team in two playsdown to the 4 yard line where TimCarr lunged in for a touchdown. Cortezran in a two point conversion to putthe score at 13-8 at the half.The second half opened with bothteams looking sluggish and stayedthat way until Lake Forest picked offa Schaefer pass at the 40 yard line. Onthe second play from scrimmageCortez hit receiver Tony Glemaud on awell developed screen play for a 55yard touchdown. Lake Forest con¬verted another 2 point try to go up 16-13.Chicago bounced back with an ex¬cellent drive starting at their own 43.Lee swept right for 23 yards to get intoenemy territory where 2 plays laterSchafer hit Burrill for 15 yards for afirst down at the 24. Lee grabbed aStatue of Liberty handoff and gainedanother 10 yards to set up his third TDof the day. Song’s PAT split the up¬rights to put Chicago up 20-16 with13:08 remaining in the final quarter.After Lake Forest drove right backwith another touchdown and the 1point PAT, Bonebroke hit a 41 yardfield goal with 1:12 remaining to sendthe game into overtime.Overtime allows each team achance to score with the ball at theopposing team's 25 yard line. LakeForest only needed 2 plays to get intothe end zone on a 20 yard pass in theflats to Bill Callahan.Chicago attempted to match LakeForest and looked good with a firstand ten at the 11. On third and 11Schaefer was sacked for an 8 yard lossand the final pass fell incomplete togive the game to the Forresters andput Chicago out of the running for theConference championship.Soccer team seeks improvementBy Madelyn DetloffSports EditorThe women’s soccer team endedtheir first season Sunday by losing 3-0to division leading St. Norbert College.The loss dropped the Maroons’ finalrecord to a dismal 1-12. The poorrecord, however, does not indicate theimprovement the team has shown intheir final week of play.Chicago played well in a 4-1 loss toLake Forest Tuesday, then stunnedBeloit College on Thursday by holdingthem scoreless until six minutes wereleft in the game. Beloit’s one goalcame after a questionable call by theofficial, who stopped play for an injurywhile the Maroons were clearly inpossession of the ball. A surprisedChicago defense was unprepared todefend the ensuing drop-ball, leavingthree Beloit attackers open to rush thenet and score the winning goal.The Green Knights of St. Norbertapparently overlooked the change todaylight savings time on Sunday; theyshowed up at Stagg Field an hourearlier then expected. This was theironly embarrassing moment, however,as they played excellent soccer oncethe game did start. A well executedoffsides trap contained the Chicagooffense, while an aggressive forward line challenged the Maroon defense.Chicago responded to St. Norbert’srough style with intensity, but couldnot overcome the effect of injuries tothree key players, forwards SaraGeenan and Janell Deter and mid¬fielder Layla Ahsan.According to Coach Janet Napoli,the Maroons “have a lot of work to doin the off season.”Arzon Ahsan moves the ball up fielddespite pressure from Beloit Collegedefenders.— ■■ ■The Bookstorepresentsa special monthfor readers10% off all books-no money down!Come to our ten-hour kick-off saleFriday, October 31, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.YourU. ofC.

In addition, he requested aminute of silence for Samora Machel,president of Mozambique, who waskilled in a plane crash last Monday, inwhich foul play was suspected.Stephen Casmier, former co-chairand present member of the BlackGraduate Forum (BGF), viewed theUniversity as having “a basic racist world view” and their “support for theregime in South Africa” as “consist¬ent with the racism they practice inHyde Park.”In an address to the crowd, Casmieroutlined the history of BGF’s relationswith the University, as well as whathas happened as a result of the firstvigil held against black harassment inthe Spring of ’86. He stated, “TheUniversity has failed to take us seri¬ously and still fails to officially rec¬ognize the contributions of blackAmericans to American learning andeduation, as well as our existence hereat the University.”Casmier denounced the formation ofthe University Security Committeewithout consultation with the electedmembers of BGF. He stated, “We just think it’s a sham without our input. Itwas our understanding that we wouldbe consulted on the exact structure ofthe committee and they did not conferwith us.”Casmier also urged the creation ofan Afro-American Studies Program,as well as an Office of Afro-Americanstudent affairs as a cultural, ac¬ademic, and support center to form¬ally handle the needs of black studentsin place of the current informal struc¬ture. He stated, “The case of PaulHardy demonstrates the informalstructure is incapable of handling thespecial needs of black students at apredominantly white University in apredominantly black area.”Tufuku Zuberi, Member of BGF,discussed BGF’s negotiations with the administration over their allegedracism and harassment of black stu¬dents by University Security. Hestated, “The University has a racistposture and it is reflected in its ter¬minating its racist policies here oncampus, or divesting in the racistregime of South Africa.”The final speaker, Aldo Laurea,CAUSE member, spoke about theMarch for Peace, Justice, and Jobsheld on Oct. 25.At the conclusion of the rally, CurtisBlack, a steward in Local 743, stated.“I think that what we’re saying to¬night is that we’re not going to goaway, we’re going to keep raisingthese issues.

BroderMaroon Editor-in Chief 1948WASHINGTON—The 99th Congress,which finally shut down and quit townlast week, was a deceptive devil. Itseemed to be an aimless blunderer,but it accomplished reforms in majorareas of government policy which willbe felt by Americans for years.The end of the session meant the endof the public careers of twomen—House Speaker Thomas P. (Tip)O’Neill, Jr. (D-Mass.) and Sen. BarryM. Goldwater (R-Ariz.)—who sym¬bolized opposite ends of the politicalspectrum. But like the 99th, O’Neilland Goldwater were more than theyseemed for much of their lives to havebeen.Long before they were bathed in thewarm suds of valedictory sentiment,Goldwater had been canonized orcondemned as “Mr. Conservative”and O’Neill as the archetypical lib¬eral. They both came to Congress in1952 and neither was initially markedby colleagues as a likely leader of hisparty.O’Neill and Goldwater, it turned out,were unusually tenacious and uni¬nhibited defenders of their very dif¬ferent faiths—ready to challenge thestrongest of the opposition presidents.Goldwater took on Lyndon B. Johnsonat the height of his powers and O'Neillhas rallied the opposition to RonaldReagan these past six years. Neitherwon the momentary battle. ButGoldwater lived to see many of hisideas vindicated and brought to life byReagan, and who is to say that O’Neillmay not enjoy witnessing a similarreversal in his retirement years?What was remarkable about Gold-water and O’Neill was not just thetenacity of their beliefs and their par¬tisanship but their readiness—in timeof genuine crisis—to rise above partyin an attempt to rescue the countryfrom ruinous folly. O’Neill, it is often forgotten, wasalmost the first powerful, main¬stream, urban Democrat to break withJohnson on the Vietnam War and tothrow his considerable weight behindthe call for ending that tragicallymistaken American intervention. Andin the constitutional crisis called Wa¬tergate, Goldwater’s was one of thedecisive judgments—some would say,the most important—in telling Rich¬ard Nixon that he had overstayed histime and overtaxed the tolerance ofthe American people.Just as its two most famous retireeswere larger and better than theirparochial and partisan images some¬times suggested, the 99th turned out toleave a heavier imprint on the historybooks than its day-to-day shenaniganswould have led anyone to suppose.For all the divisions between theDemocratic House of Representativesand the Republican Senate, for all theendless infighting with the WhiteHouse that marred these last twoyears, the Congress mustered the willto make structural changes in at leastfour fields—changes which will pro¬duce benefits for decades.It enacted a major overhaul of thetax system, which will not only allow'most working families to keep more oftheir income but nudge investors andbusinesses toward making more oftheir decisions on solid economicgrounds—not to exploit loopholes inthe code. The benefits for the UnitedStates cannot be measured, but theywill be substantial.In its final days, the 99th passed anew immmigration law which had itsbeginnings way back in the Carteradministration. Even more than thetax bill, it represents a compromiseamong strong economic and politicalinterests. But it creates a legal struc¬ture that reflects the realities of ourrelationship to the impoverished na¬tions to our south, the changes in our labor force, the responsibilities ofemployers and the compassionateclaims of the long-resident “illegal”aliens. And that is no small thing.A third structural change—one inwhich Goldwater had a majorhand—was the reorganization of thePentagon, aimed at strengthening andunifying the Joint Chiefs of Staff andexpanding the authority of fieldcommanders. It is a rational attemptto build on the lessons learned fromVietnam through Grenada and, itssponsors hope, will make it morelikely that the vast infusions of moneyinto the Pentagon will produce a moreeffective fighting force.Finally, the Superfund bill marks amajor commitment—financed in abalanced way—to clean up the life-threatening residue of the now-waningindustrial age. It is a symbol that even in this conservative era, governmentand industry are prepared to meettheir obligations to public health, notwalk away from them.Given the politically divided gov¬ernment the voters mandated, allthese measures represent victories forbipartisan cooperation. Regrettably,no such sensible accommodation wasfound in the largest area of federalresponsibility—the duty to balance theamount of government services we getagainst the revenues collected.The President’s intrasigence on thetax increase question and the con¬gressional Democrats’ timidity com¬bined to frustrate the efforts—ledmainly by a small group of senators ofboth parties—to attack the yawningdeficits with more than gimmickry.That challenge awaits the 100thCongress—and what a task it is.v.The Federalist SocietyandThe Intercollegiate Studies Institutepresent:Ed ClarkFounder of the Libertarian Partyspeaking on“The Development of the ModernLibertarian Movement"Wednesday, October 29,1986 at 4:00 p.m.Law School Auditorium(bring Student I.D.)Partially Funded by Student Government Vyou dne invited fo cUacuaaTHE MICHIGAN MBAMonday, November 3Pamela QuallsAssistant Director of AdmissionsAppointments may be scheduled atCareer and Placement ServicesFORFUTURE MBAsTHE SEARCH ENDS HEREWith over 75 schools.In one place.In one day.

But there exists another,less publicized, student-run perform¬ance organization. The Prism MusicFestival also contributes to these op¬portunities. Prism music maintainsresponsible and high quality musicorganizations that provide an addi¬tional avenue for students to performand enjoy classical music. SincePrism Music supplements the MusicDepartment to create these op¬portunities, would it not be reasonablefor the Department to support andencourage these students, who con¬tribute their time and efforts free ofcharge?Last week, Zita Cogan, Adminis¬trative Assistant and Concerts Man¬ager of the Music Department, in¬dicated otherwise. She felt that therewas a need to institute new, large feeson student groups for the access touniversity grand pianos. These feeswere in excess of $125 per quarter.This seems like an unjustifiably largefee, but this issue deserves a fairdiscussion.Let’s break down the fee into its twoparts. Nearly $50 of this figure repre¬sents a piano tuning fee. The MusicDepartment requires that every pianobe tuned before it is used in a concert.This is a reasonable fee if it is appro¬priately applied (however, it doesseem wasteful to tune a piano used foraccompaniment on two consecutivenights for two separate perform¬ances ). The other $75 represents a feepreviously charged only to non-University organizations, and is nowbeing applied to Prism Music, a stu¬dent organization which receives itsentire budget from the Student Ac¬tivities Fee. Any fee may be rationalized, butthat does mean that it is fair or justi¬fiable. The supposed purpose of thisfee is to recoup some of the long-termcosts of maintaining and purchasinggrand pianos. By charging PrismMusic, however, the burden of main¬taining university property is placedsquarely on the Student Activities Fee.The purpose of the Student ActivitiesFee is to provide funds solely for theenhancement of student life throughstudent activities and organizations.In no way is this fund meant to sup¬port academic departments and theirproperty: THAT’S WHAT OUR TUIT¬ION IS FOR! If we are forced to pay$75 for the use of the piano, thatmeans that there will be $75 lessavailable for genuine student ac¬tivities. This is another attempt by theadministration to transfer its expensesto the Student Activities Fund. Ourpayment of the new $75 fee wouldrepresent duplication of our tuitioneffort.Some of the damage of this fee havealready been felt by Prism Music.Last week, the application of this feecaused the cancellation of the per¬formance by Prism Music of severalpieces requiring a piano. The resultingdisappointment of some members ofthe Wind Orchestra has moved themto rethink their relationship withPrism and even consider resignation.The inability of Prism to obtain theuse of the piano has greatly restrictedits repertoire.For the above reasons we feel thatan immediate reconsideration of the$75 fee imposed on Prism Music forthe use of departmental pianos is inorder (and we don’t mean that itshould be increased). We seek thecomplete revocation of this fee beforeour November 22 concert.Sincerely,William A. McDadeChris CutlerFarhang FarhangfarContra speakers distorted truthDear Editor,The October 21 issue of The Marooncontained an article concerning a re¬cent meeting sponsored by the organ¬ization Common Sense in which twosupporters of the Nicaraguan Contrasspoke. We would like to point out thatthe article basically summarized thestatements made by the speakers,without analyzing the accuracy of theclaims made. For example, the articlestates that one of the speakers“claimed that the Contras have thesupport of the people of Nicaragua,”and that “peasants in the area wherethe Contras operate give them logis¬tical support and information.” Re¬sponsible journalism would havenecessitated indicating that thesestatements are gross distortions of theexisting situation.Organizations, including AmnestyInternational, Oxfam, AmericasWatch, the Washington Office on LatinAmerica, and even the New YorkTimes, have catalogued a litany ofatrocities committed by the Contrasagainst civilians. Health workers,schoolteachers, and community andreligious leaders are especially tar¬geted. (Note, as became public twoyears ago, the CIA has instructed theContras in civilian-directed terror.)Just to set the scale, between 1980 and1984, 7300 civilian adults and 3300children were murdered by theContras (Witness for Peace). Thesefigures are conservative compared tothe estimates of AFSC (AmericaFriends Service Committee). Keep inmind that the population of Nicaraguais 2.8 million, less than that of Chi¬cago. Is it reasonable to believe thatthe Contras have the support of peoplethey are murdering? On the otherhand, the Sandinistas have distributedweapons to the peasants for their self¬protection from Contra attacks.Clearly the government would not arma hostile population.Some of the other distortions of the speakers which were quoted in thearticle include: (1) the assertion thatthe Soviet Union is building a sub¬marine base in Nicaragua (what is theevidence for this?) with the implica¬tion being that this would be justifica¬tion for waging war on Nicaragua(contrarily, it is the right of any sov¬ereign nation to choose military alliesas it sees fit, a perogative the USfreely exercises); (2) that there is nofreedom of the press in Nicaragua(contrast Nicaragua in which thepeople and the press discuss andcriticize their government, to the sit¬uation in El Salvador, where opposi¬tion newspaper editors are regularlytortured and murdered by governmentforces); (3) that Nicaragua is a “to¬talitarian Marxist-Leninist State”(this is a familiar example of propa¬ganda used by the US government andpress to label any non-European so¬cialist oriented government.)In the same issue of the Maroonthere was a letter to the editor fromtwo members of “Common Sense”.The Maroon used a misleading head¬line for the letter: “CAUSE disruptsforum.” In fact, the “disruption” oc¬curred only after the meeting wasended abruptly by the moderator andconsisted mainly of questions aboutthe deceptive posters put up to ad¬vertise the event.It is the job of the press not only totranscribe events but also to report anaccurate picture of what is happening.Misinformation occurs systematicallyin most of our news media; Reaganadministration assertions appear onthe front pages and during primetime, and are presented to the publicas if they were facts rather than lies.However, we would like to note thatthe Maroon has a generally good re¬cord on responsible reporting.Sincerely,Dr. Wayne Boucher, Dept of PhysicsDr. Jennie Traschen, Dept, ofAstrophysics22—The Chicago Maroon—Tuesday, October 28,1986 OH GOOD, FOR A MINUTETHERE I WAS AFRAlPTHEY WERE GOINGTO THE AR MSRACE.Reagan nearly speaks of peaceBy Brian GreenburgExactly what caused the president¬ial will to weaken may never beknown. Observers point to the dizzyingadventure of a weekend getaway,fresh ocean breezes, beguiling diplo¬mats, and the daring uncertainties ofa haunted house. But no one had pre¬dicted how far things could go. It hadbeen planned innocently enough as aleadership projection and issue dis¬sipation exercise. But within a day thetitillating clues revealed the story:something really tawdry almost hap¬pened in Reykjavik.Though not as serious as conserva¬tive commentators had initiallyfeared, some felt there was reason tobelieve that the president’s massivearms build up had been compromisedor placed in real jeopardy. It wasreported that the president had verynearly engaged in an arms control actor, according to some, what mighteven be construed as a peace act.By the time Air Force One hadreturned to Washington, the full di¬mensions of the crisis were clear tothe presidential staff. Perceptionmanagement and image reconstruc¬tion teams were rushed in front of themedia. The very integrity of the pre¬sidency appeared to be at stake. Itremains uncertain, of course, evenafter this rather frenzied therapy,whether the right-wing psyche canrecover from a shock which somebelieved registered off of the Richterscale.This was the stuff of primal terrorfor most of the Reagan faithful. Onecould just imagine: The Gip, momen¬tarily unchaperoned with Mikhail in aroom with indirect lighting, lots ofpolished wood, and sweeping armscontrol proposals. Dizzy with visionsof the Reagan legacy, baffled by cun¬ning Bolsheviks, the president utters afateful “Yes, that sounds reasonableto me, too, Mikhail.”The terrible nightmare grinds on-continued adherence to SALT II andthe Anti-ballistic missile (ABM)treaty, and as if that weren’t horribleenough, ten years of agonizing syn¬chronized missile shredding. Armsreductions could break out in all di¬rections, out of control. A reasonableperson could see that it could only leadto a full Russian onslaught and Ar¬mageddon. The possibilities werereally too awful to contemplate. George Schultz applied the balmwhere it would do the most good.Gradually it was revealed that thepresident had not gone to Reykjavikequipped with a proposal that would inany way limit existing Americanplans, and certainly not with anythingthat should be mistaken for seriousarms control positions.After all, since the Russians havestopped testing nuclear weapons, whatwould have been lost in pretendingthat a 150 kiloton limit for continuingAmerican tests meant something?Furthermore, the proposal for limitingihtermediate missiles in Europe andwas a milder version of the ‘zero’proposal made four years ago and atthat time, warmly received by Eur¬opean allies. Lest some still requirereassurance, Richard Oerke clarifiedthat the president had been mistakenwas even on the table.Then came Schultz’s masterstroke.He clarified that what might appearas a reduction in arms, is in reality aprecondition for further arms build¬ups of enormous magnitude. The SDIalone promises hundreds of billions oreven trillions to the high tech warindustries. Additionally, ‘significant’build-ups in conventional weaponswould also be necessary. Otherwise,the Russians would hurl themselvesinto the Fulda gap and get blown tocommie comic dust by our nuclearartillery and missiles, neutron bombs,ground and carrier planes, and nu¬clear tipped cruise missiles.In short, the last impression ofReykjavik results anyone should haveis that any arms control agreementsbeing considered by the administra¬tion might impede an even steeperarms build up. Americans, Georgenoted, have always been willing to“pay the price of freedom.”There remains a trump card thatthe administration has not yet played.The president has repudiated theSALT II treaty, and reinterpreted theABM treaty. The new interpretationsuggests that the treaty probably al¬lowed, maybe even encouraged thebuild-up of ABM systems. Only dup¬licitous liberals have kept us fromrealizing the true content of the treaty.The trump card quietly says this:With the president’s demonstratedwillingness to abrogate existing armscontrol agreements or define them outof existence, why should any hawk beconcerned that in the event, a new‘agreement’ means anything at all?CLASSIFIEDADVERTISINGClassified advertising in the Chicago Maroon is$3 for the first line and $2 for each additionalline.
