Gelb, a for¬mer U of C professor in the Orien¬tal Institute, apparently collectedthe publications while he ob¬served the Nazi war crime trials in1946, according to Sem Sutter, Uof C librarian. Gelb died inJanuary and his widow sold thecollection to the University inApril."Many of the titles areimportant in their own right, theyare most significant, forming abody of material large enough toillustrate the growth and out-workings of Nazi ideology," saidSutter.Sutter said that although theworks were mass-produced, youwould not find these materials inthe average library because "manyof these were not thought of ashistorically important at thetime."The collection can be dividedinto four main matters of interest:works concerned with anti¬semitism, history books and textbooks, party and governmentpublications, and texts aboutWorld War H.Among the anti-semitic mat¬erial are four Ahnenpasse, or"ancestor passes." These bookletscontain charts few proving one'sancestral purity through 255ancestors. The original owner ofmany of the books, Dr. ErichOtto, a Munich public healthofficial, filled out one of thebooks with citations of marriageand baptismal records to provethat he was truly "Aryan."Included in the histories andtextbooks are three albums oftrading cards bought with cigarettepackages depicting the variousparts of Hitler's life and the rise ofthe Nazi party. Some of thehistory books contain insightsinto the Nazi world-view. Onehistory book, roughly translatedby Sutter, described why the USand the United Kingdom soughtto expand their power. "The Jewsin the U.S. are not only in leaguewith the Anglo-Saxon exploi¬tation, but beyond this haveimperceptibly subjugated it." Ascience text informed its readersthat Copernicus was German (hewas actually Polish).The party publications indicatethe degree to which German lifewas organized by the Nazi government. There were flags,insignia, and uniforms for allkinds of groups. There was evenan official sweat suit for politicalleaders to wear on appropriateoccasions. The collection alsohas two copies of Hitler’s MeinKampf, one packaged for mailingto a soldier and the other forpresentation to two newlywedsby the mayor of Munich. Theyillustrate how Hitler’s biographyhad become the Nazi-controlledsociety's equivalent of the Bible.The largest group of booksconcern the Second World War.The Nazis published a bookhypocritically describing and de¬ploring the Russian Katyn mas¬sacre of Polish soldiers. Otherdocuments include a book with aset of stereopticon photographswhich illustrate the 1939 Polishcampaign and can be viewed inthree dimensions with a specialviewer. A picture book aboutJapan was acquired by Gelbentitled The Land of Friendshipin the East. According to Sutter,the book described the "un¬breakable frienship" between Ger¬many and Japan and spoke oftheir "common struggle and fate."Sutter hopes to hold a seminarcentering aroung the collection.Meanwhile, the collection isopen few research.Buckley speaks on SDI, foreign policyBy Mona El Naggar andMichael P. MonahanNews Editors"He's done more than anyoneelse to confirm my liberalism"was how one U of C studentgreeted National ReviewEditor William F. Buckley, aprominent conservative, whospoke at Mandel Hall last Tues¬day.Nevertheless, Buckley openedhis speech by expressing hisgratitude "for at least the pre¬liminary hospitality" he hadreceived before his speech."In considering the prob¬lems of other countries, we mfirst need to reflect on our jiown political revolution," fisaid Buckley. For example, mhe explained that the United ^States cannot condemn the f|South Africans since Amer- mican blacks were only firecently enfranchised. mIn response to the Iquestion of divestiture, he ■responded, "I don't think it is |Ja wise move; it will polarizesentiment in South Africa, ||which is exactly what we ■don't want."He pleaded with hisaudience to be patient."Americans have the distressinghistorical habit of assuming thatany moral judgment must beinstantly transcribable anywherein the world. We must grantother cultures time."He reminded the audience ofthe widespread racial prejudice of25 years ago, telling the joke ofthe black man who tried to passhis literacy test to be able to vote -• he was given a text from Sophocles in the original Greekand was asked what was written.He then added, "There are no jokestold now, but we can’t forget thatwe did make the jokes and that weallowed these things to happen."Buckley described liberty as"the mythogenic gold" andexpressed his wish that the UnitedStates be prepared to fight for it."If after the rededication of theStatue of Liberty on July 4, yousaw a tear in her eye, that was atear of alienation," said Buckley,warning his audience "not toforswear the possible use of forcesimply for the sake of forswearingWilliam F. Buckleythe possible use of force."He went on to explain that heprefers to "deal with a lesser threatnow than with a greater threatlater, so that if one division inNicaragua today will preclude theneed for twelve along the Mexicanborder tomorrow, that is trueieadeiship."Claiming that there is "nopoint in continuing the presentpursuit for disarmament," Buckley said that "no expense should bespared for the construction of aspace shield."Buckley believes that theSoviet Union simply has a"mugger’s interest" in restrainingus from developing the StrategicDefense Initiative (SDI), "forthey are like the muggerthreatening to add more pistols tohis present supply if his victimcontinues to work on his safetyvest."In response to a question onthe wisdom of continuingresearch on SDI in light of theskepticism of many in thescientific community, heretorted, "Saying [that] SDIis possible is not any moreridiculous than saying thatthe welfare system helpspoverty." Buckley notedthat in that scientific com¬munity those who are sayingno to SDI are doctors anddentists who twenty yearsago would have said that itwas impossible to reach themoon.Furthermore, he said that"declarations of commonpurpose with the SovietUnion run the risk of beingdeeply subversive." Heemphasized the disparitybetween the two superpowerssaying that claiming that the twocountries are similar is likesaying, "the man who pushes theold lady in front of the oncomingbus and the man who pushes theold lady out of the way of theoncoming bus, both push oldladies around."Buckley’s "ultimate propo¬sition is that in our pursuit of anon-military advantage, it is Two copies of Adolph Hitler's Main KampfMed Center gets MRIBy Ronald C. Lee, Jr.Contributing WriterThe newest addition to the Uof C Medical Center, a magneticresonance facility, was dedicatedWednesday, December 3.Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) is a high-tech method ofproducing sharp, three-dimen¬sional images of body structures.The images provide a quick andprecise diagnosis of everythingfrom tumors to disorders of thenervous system, such as Park¬inson's and Alzheimer's diseases.Pledges for half of the S4million necessary to complete theMaurice Goldblatt Magnetic Res¬onance Imaging Center camefrom the Goldblatt Cancer andHeart Foundations and from the Uof C Cancer Research Foun¬dation.MRI could prove to be revol¬utionary in medical diagnosis.MRI Committee ChairmanRobert Black described it as the"greatest step forward in radiologysince the discovery of the X-ray."Magnetic Resource Imagingemploys the strongest electro¬magnet available for medical use.The magnet surrounds the pa¬tient’s body and works in com¬bination with radio wave pulsesthat misalign the nuclei of theatoms in the patient’s body.When the radio wave is turnedoff, nuclei quickly return to theiroriginal alignment and emit theenergy that they have absorbed asa radio wave. These signals aredetected and used by a computerto produce the images."Medicine has crossed a newthreshold," said Medical CenterVice-President Donald King."Technical advances like MRIpresent us with an unusualopportunity to extend ourtraditional leadership role inresearch and patient care."MRI was made possible bythe discovery of the basicprinciple of nuclear magneticresonance in the late 1940s by Edward Purcell and Felix Bloch,who later received a Nobel Prizein Physics for their work.Two decades later, scientistsfound that nuclear magneticresonance signals could be used toobtain cross-sectional images ofanimals and then humans.This new technique ofdiagnosis has several advantagesover other existing methods. Themost important is the safetyfactor. Unlike radiography, CATscanning, and other X-raytechniques. MRI does not exposethe patient to ionizing radiation,which carries the risk of cancerand genetic damage. Conse¬quently, MRI is particularlybeneficial for pregnant women,children, and patients who requirerepeated screenings.In addition, MRI treatmenthas no side effects, and the patientfeels no pain or discomfort duringthe process.Finally, unlike X-rays whichonly reveal "shadows" of organs,MRI presents three-dimensionalimages without the confusingoverlay of shadows. It produces amuch clearer image and permits amore precise diagnosis of someimages.The new facility was dedicatedWednesday during a privateribbon-cutting ceremony and din¬ner. The immediate family ofMaurice Goldblatt, for w hom theceremony was dedicated, was inattendance at the ceremonies, in¬cluding wife Bernice Goldblatt,son Stanford Goldblatt (a memberof the U of C Board of Trusteesand chairman of the U of CHospitals' Board of Trustees) anddaughter Merle Cohen.Maurice Goldblatt, who re¬cently passed away, was a majorcontributer to the funding of theproject, as well as to several otherprograms at the U of C MedicalCenter.Speeches were given at theceremony by U of C PresidentHanna Gray, MRI DirectorRobert Beck, and Rabbi RalphSimon.a mistake to think that summitconferences with the Soviets willbear fruit."Finally, Buckley said "WeuiiHkt remind ouiscivcj* dun dieprice we are paying for all this[life as we know it in the UnitedStates] is worth paying." • . . . •.The next Maroon win *.

Sampeck and Chairman GeorgeBest feel that many students are not awarethat there is money available for their use.HARC was designed to promote inter-dormactivities, but Best notes that "we [HARC]can’t go out and make people do things.”HARC begins each quarter with abudget of $2,500.00. This year’s autumnbudget included $423 which was carriedover from last spring. In past years, moremoney has been distributed in winter andspring while autumn has traditionally beena slow quarter. The unspent money fromthis quarter budget will carry over into nextquarter.So far this quarter, HARC has sub¬sidized trips to Galileo and Second City,and a number of parties, including one all¬graduate party and the Shore land Halloweenparty. HARC’s largest expenditure thisquarter was for a Snell/Hitchcock/ Wood¬ward/Breckinridge Halloween party whichfeatured the blues band Phil Guy and theChicago Machine. HARC contributed$300 for the eventSampeck said that HARC does notexist to fund entire events alone, but rather"to help an event that wouldn't happenotherwise."

HARC subsidizes both graduate andundergraduate activities, as long as they in¬clude houses from at least two dorms.According to Jarcho, HARC was formed because students had complained of"feeling isolated in the dorms," and theUniversity wanted to help "bring houses indifferent dorms together."In order for houses to get HARCmoney, they must present a detailed budgetto HARC that shows exactly how themoney will be spent and how the activityCredit Union expands intoBy Wayne SchmidtContributing WriterThe University Student Federal CreditUnion (USFCU) plans to begin con¬struction December 15 of a new office, acc¬ording to USFCU President Kail Johnson.The new facilities will be locatedacross from their old location in ReynoldsGub. The former Reynolds Club pooltable area, located between the UniversityTheatre offices, will serve as the newlocation. The now open space will be en¬closed with a wall to create the new officespace. The new USFCU office is expect¬ed to open at the beginning of winter quart¬er, marking the third anniversary of theUSFCLTs existence.The new office will be an improvementover the existing one, according to MaxRhee, member of the USFCU board ofdirectors. The new office area, which willbe substantially larger than the old office,was designed by University architect MitchGoldman and the construction work wascontracted out. Rhee says that in additionto the increase in space, the new officewill have a larger lobby, carpeting, air con¬ ditioning, and two doors for "easierentering and exiting of USFCU members"."It will be a move from a hole in thewall, according to some, to having abeautiful office which will make us lookmore professional," said Johnson.The USFCU has been given a two-yearlicense by the University to operate inReynolds Gub after many meetings withUniversity officals on the proposed newoffice and extension of their license."The University is finally behind usand willing to work with us after we’veproved ourselves over the last two years,"explained Johnson.Along with a new office the USFCUhas gained approval for adding an auto¬mated teller machine (ATM) to their office.The new ATM will be located on the south¬ern wall of the University Theatre officenearest the staircase in Reynolds Gub.Written approval arrived December 1 fromthe National Credit Union Administration(NCUA), the federal agency governing overall credit unions.Standard procedure, Johnson said, isthat any time capital improvements like will promote interaction between dorms.HARC meets Mondays in Cobb 430 at 8pm.

The NCUA had grantedapproval for the issuing of Cash StationATM cards by the USFCU in late Nov¬ember but they then delayed on thedecision for an ATM machine. The pro¬cess for getting an ATM had been goingon since March of this year."Over [winter] break it will be in¬stalled," said Johnson. "We’ve had amachine on order and a guy ready to installit Now we’ve got the approval of theNCUA."The need to expand and gain new mem¬bers prompted the USFCU to find largerquarters. With an "aggressive freshmanmarketing campaign," Rhee said thatmembership is up from 1600 members lastyear to 2100 this year."We needed to attract more members sowe had to offer new services like the ATMand now GSL’s (Guaranteed StudentLoans)," said Rhee. "With four milliondollars in transactions a month we had toexpand so that we could maintain our levelof service to our members."SPECIALSPRES-a-plv®Copier AddressLabelsLet your copier do the work!PRES-a-ply*File Folder Labels PRES-a-ply®White LabelsSelf-adhesive labels indifferent shapes and sizes Dennison MailersPlastic air bubble paddinggives lightweight protectionnow 20 °FFGlue SticThe no-mess way to glue Data HI-LITER®TheHI-LITER*forcomputer printoutsREG. 99*NOWthru December 12, 19862—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, December 5,1986C students sing a cappella on SundayU ofBy Michael P.MonahanCollege News EditorOn Sunday, Dec. 7, TheUniversity of Chicago Chorusand Motet Choir, conducted byBruce Tammen, will present itsAutumn Concert at 8:00 pm, atSt. Thomas the Apostle Church,5472 South Kimbark. Theprogram will include works byBach, Schiitz, Rachmaninov, andHyde Park's own Max Janowski.The Department of Musicmaintains seven performance or¬ganizations, three of which are choral ensembles: the UniversityChorus (UC), a group of 100singers concentrating on majorworks of the a cappella and orch¬estral repertoire; the MotetChoir, a thirty-six membergroup, which concentrates on acappella literature of the 16ththrough 20th centuries; and theWomen's Chorus, a twenty-fivemember group conducted byBrian Wilson.The choral music program hasgrown dramatically over the pastthree years both in chorus sizeand in concert attendance. Accord¬ing to Bruce Tammen, conductorof the UC and Motet Choir, "Attendance at our concertsfrequendy exceeds 700, and ourmailing list contains twice thenumber of names it did a yearago."In 1983, approximately sixtypeople sang in the UC and Cham¬ber Chorus. Currently, 165people, 109 of whom are under¬graduates, participate in the threegroups. "The undergraduate re¬sponse to the choral program hasbeen overwhelming," stated Tam¬men. Every fall during auditionsmany cannot be accommodated inany of the three groups for lackof space. As Tammen pointsout, "The enthusiasm is bound¬ less, and the musical level ev¬idenced thus far in rehearsals ishigher than ever."In addition to three regular con¬certs, the Motet Choir will takeits first concert tour during springbreak. Alumni clubs are work¬ing in conjunction with theAlumni Office on campus and theDepartment of Music to co¬ordinate performances in NewYork, Washington DC, Cleve¬land, and Detroit.The University Chorus, theUniversity Symphony Orchestra,conducted by Barbara Schubert,and professional soloists from theChicago area will join forces to perform Beethoven's Ninth Sym¬phony May 30 and 31 in MandelHall. The Motet Choir will per¬form Haydn's Creation with theChamber Orchestra under thebaton of Stephen Zike May 2.The upcoming Sunday concertpromises to be a splendid culmin¬ation of the quarter's hard work.The visual and acoustical beautiesof St. Thomas afford a goodenvironment for choral perform¬ance and audiences have respondedmost enthusiastically in the past.The suggested donation foradmission is S3 for adults and $1for students and seniors.Sororites organizea winter rush weekBy Deena YellinContributing WriterKappa Alpha Theta, a newsorority, and Alpha Omicron Piwill join together to actively re¬cruit new members during a rushweek they will hold this winter.Panhellenic delegates SissyChang and Sari Ratner have or¬ganized a series of social eventsfor the rush including an openhouse on January 13, a themeparty the following day, and a pre¬ference party on January 16.These events will all take place atIda Noyes Hall.Rush gives prospective soror¬ity candidates an opportunity tocompare sororities and to deter¬mine which group will best suittheir needs. Although the soror¬ities are non-discriminatory, cer¬tain qualities are required formembership. According toChang, sorority members are ex¬pected to be responsible for theplanning of fundraisers for char¬ities and social eventsAccording to Ralph Hamilton,the assistant dean of students, thetwo sororities will enrich the at¬mosphere of the U of C campus. "They provide a very specialopportunity for women to de¬velop a very special kind of com¬munity and social interaction" hesaid. Hamilton noted that thesororities are meeting a need oncampus and are doing productiveand important work such as com¬munity service projects and fund¬raising for social events.According to Hamilton, frater¬nities and sororities do not de¬tract from the scholarship forwhich the U of C is renowned."The U of C is a unique campusand any organization that comeshere is going to represent thatuniqueness. Scholarship is theheart of the U of C and willremain so."Hamilton says that the newsorority will be very beneficial tothe campus because "women'sfraternities provide a rich sociallife, an opportunity for leader¬ship and will promote com¬munity awareness."Registration forms for rushweek are available at the Rey¬nolds Club mailroom and mustbe submitted by the end of thisquarter.

December 5.1986—3Chase Manhattan finances new scholarshipA 100,000 fund will aid students seekinga career in the petroleum industriesBy Emma FritzContributing WriterThe Graduate School of Business (GSB)has recently been awarded a $100,000scholarship fund from the Chase Man¬hattan Bank for students with plans of pur¬suing careers in the petroleum industries.The Dean of the GSB, John P. Gould,stated, "The Chase Scholarship will enablestudents who might otherwise be unable toafford it to equip themselves for a future inthe petroleum industry. For this the GSBis grateful. We are also proud to have beenselected as the institution to receive theChase Scholarship. We value this ex¬pression of confidence in our graduate pro¬gram."This is the year of Chase's Global Pet¬roleum Division’s 50th anniversary.Chase appointed a "blue-ribbon" com¬mittee to select a school to administer thescholarship. George M. Keller, chairman of Chevron Corporation, chaired this groupthat included John F. Bookout, president ofShell Oil Company, H. Lawrence Fuller,president of Amoco Coiporation, and Law¬rence G. Rawl, president of Exxon Corp¬oration. Keller said, "Nothing is moreimportant to the future of the petroleum in¬dustry than a continuing supply of able anddedicated young people. The Chase Schol¬arship will contribute to that end. We inthe industry are most appreciative of thisshow of support by a long-time valued part¬ner."Chase Manhattan opened its Global Pet¬roleum division during one of the nation'smost severe oil slumps. "For fifty yearsChase has been committed to petroleum, good times and bad. The Chase Schol¬arship is further evidence of that com¬mitment - of our determination to keepthe finest minds flowing into this vital in¬dustry, as it moves to regain its pre¬eminent position in energy marketsworldwide."Recipients of the Chase Scholarshipwill be invited to Chase for summer internpositions. More information concerningthe distribution of the scholarship will beavailable following the winter break.Gould said, "Pursuing a career in thepetroleum industry here at the GSB hasimportant links to other parts of theUniversity. The creation of ARCH ajoint venture involving the University of Chicago, the Graduate School of Business,and Argonne National Laboratory) providesan important vehicle for transferringtechnology developed at Argonne and theUniversity of Chicago to the commercialsector. Our Chase Scholar may be in¬strumental in bringing some of that re¬search to the successful product stage."Santa's helpersneededEvery year on Christmas Day, SantaClaus visits all adult and pediatricpatients at the University of ChicagoHospitals.

Itseems to have been made on the same scaleas the movie palaces built before WorldWar II. An important difference betweenMcClurg and those near-extinct theaters isthat the McClurg auditorium is sparserather than ornate. Many of the old housesused decoration as a way of luring audi¬ences into a fantasy world. Colorful motifswere painted on ceilings and walls weresometimes covered with textured facades de¬picting quaint Spanish or Italian villages.Modem audiences do not expect suchfanciful opulence and new theaters, de¬signed solely for comfort, rarely make anyattempt to surprise the audiences withtouches of glamour. McClurg's beige, un¬imaginative minimalism is thereforetypical of most theaters. Yet, McClurgdoes have one distinctive essential featureto enhance the moviegoer's experience. Its70 mm screen curves slightly inward,creating the impression that the filmalmost envelops the viewer. This designseems ideal for movies which are not justbased on big physical productions, but arealso thematically and emotionallyexpansive. The Mission fits this description per¬fectly. Winner of the top prize ( the PalmD' Or) at the Cannes Film Festival lastspring, it stars Robert DeNiro and JeremyIrons, and was written by Robert Bolt,known for his work on such epics as AMan for All Seasons and Lawrence ofArabia. The director and cinematographer,Roland Joffe and Chris Menges, respect¬ively, worked on The Killing Fields.This is a really stunning lookingmovie and by filling the McClurg screen,the images seem all the more powerful.Jungles surrounding the thunderous Ig-nassu Falls in Argentina provide a natur¬ally dramatic setting. The story focuses ona small group of 18th century priests whotry to continue their mission when theywere opposed by the Spanish and Port¬uguese powers, and the Pope.Although the plot for The Mission isfictional, there were many similar strug¬gles in Argentina and Paraguay at thattime. The Spanish and Portuguese were fighting over the territory, but in theirbusiness interests, they agreed that theJesuits hindered their opportunities tocapture natives for the slave trade. Thepriests were seen as a threat because whileconverting Indians to Christianity andteaching them other aspects of Westernculture, the missions also protected them.Incomprehensibly, the Church did not findthese missions in their interests.The Mission considers the lives of twovery different priests and their desparateresponses to the oppostiton. Iron playsFather Gabriel, heading the San Carlosmission which has becomes home andrefuge for may in the Guarani tribe.Mendoza was once a slave trader who hadbeen imprisoned for the murder of hisyounger brother. When it come time todefend the mission, both mens's passionare Finally put to the test. Father Gabrielremains a stanch pacifist, whereas Mendozastill has his Fighter's instinctAny movie which delves into a“Granted, the priests probable helped many Indiansfrom being trapped, but the movie glorifies the zeal ofthese characters a little too much.”WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME 10CAli YOUR BOYFRIEND?a) When the president of Phi Gamma Deltaasks you to Saturday night’s Fiji Formal.b) After raquetball class, to tell him that theinstructor with the Australian accent andthose blue eyes did wonders for your serve.c) When you just feel like telling him youmiss him after all.<t iyBbA1&! AT&TThe right choice.Maybe you shouldn’t tell him everything that’s going on. Butif you still care about him, why not call and whisper some sweetthings he’ll never forget?Like why you call using AT&T Long Distance Ser¬vice, and why you trust AT&T’s high quality serviceand exceptional value.When you tell him that AT&T gives you immedi¬ate credit if you dial a wrong number, he won’tbe able to get you out of his mind.And telling him you can count onAT&T for clear, longconnections will drivehim crazy.All of which will prob¬ably inspire him to driveout for the weekend, givingyou an excuse to blow offthat silly frat party after all.The Chicago complicated historical issue deservesimmediate praise. The Mission is notablebecause while it is visually satisfying italso raises many questions. The problemwith this movie, however, is that it fallsshort of its intentions. It explores the waysthat political and economic greed andreligous intervention can devastate acommunity. Yet the actual portrayals aretoo simplistic. The Pope's envoys and theSpanish and Portuguese are portrayed asvillians, while the priests seem generallyheroic. Granted, the priests probably help¬ed many Indians from being trapp&l, butthe movie glorifies the zeal of these charac¬ters a little too much. The Mission doesnot seem to question the value of theirefforts to Westernize a community thatprobably worked effectively on its own.Overall, the Mission is still worth see¬ing DeNiro and Irons give great per¬formances even though their accents seemout of place. DeNiro proves once againthat he can go miles with word or gesture.For instance, at one moment he answers"yes" when asked if he prepared dinner fortwo priests, His response contains a funnymixture of mischief, pride and childishglee. Aidan Quinn (Deperately SeekingSusan) has the miniscule part of Mendoza'sbrother. It seems at odds with the scope ofthe rest of The Mission.Spartacist League ForumFight Reagan Reaction with Class Struggle!Speaker: Ed Clarkson,S.L Central CommitteeSaturday.

SmithAfter they had dined, the official meeting ofThe Associated Generals of All Eternity beganwith the usual two minute pounding of athousand kettle drums. Then came the shriek often thousand bugles, blasting the call toATTACK. Then finally twice ten thousand gunsroared a twenty-four salvo salute.As the blasting echo of the last salvo cre-scendoed through the giant banquet hall, thepresident of The Associated Genemls of AllEternity rose from his seat at the speakers’table. He was a small man, quite stout, and hiseyes flashed with pride as he gazed at hiscomrades seated at a thousand tables arrangedin the precise battle order of a Roman legion.“ATTENTION!" shouted Napoleon Bon¬aparte.They rose in perfect unison, all the mightythousands of them (heads back, chests out,stomachs in) and the vast hall exploded into adazzling, radiant mixture of shining armor andmulti-colored uniforms and capes“A toast, gentlemen!” called Napoleon, lift¬ing his golden wine goblet. “TO EARTH!”"TO EARTH!” was the mighty shout thatanswered him.And they all lifted their goblets and drainedthem dry with one sweeping gesture“Well done!” exclaimed Napoleon proudly."You may take your seats again, gentlemen!”He watched them approvingly as they sat down,and waited patiently until the slight hum ofconversation had died away. "And now,” hecontinued, “our esteemed secretary. Hannibal,will read the Constitution of our organizationand the minutes of the last meeting.”The tall, dark man sitting beside Napoleonrose at these words, drawing from the folds ofhis dark red cloak a parchment scroll. Heacknowledged the loud burst of applause with aslight smile, opened the scroll, and when theapplause had subsided began to read in acommanding voice that carried every word withcrystal clarity throughout the vast hall and evendeep into the mists that swirled on every sideThe gist of what he said was that theesteemed founder of their organization, Gen¬eral Neanderthalis C. Magnon, had foundedThe Associated Generals of All Eternity in orderto promote the interchange of knowledge relat¬ing to the development and progress of thescience of war on Earth and in order to promotegood fellowship amongst generals who hadpassed from mortal life; that because of thetime-space warps which made entrance to theirdimension possible only on the first day ofevery new century that meetings would be heldonce each century, with registration of mem¬bers taking place on the last day of the centuryand the official meeting beginning at midnightof the last day of the century; that at eachmeeting prospective new members were to beexamined as to their qualifications and wouldbe admitted if a majority of the memberspresent deemed them of sufficient outstandingmerit; and that at the last meeting four thous¬and seven hundred and eighty-two new mem¬bers had been duly examined, found qualified,and electedHannibal finished reading the scroll and satdown to another burst of applause, which heagain acknowledged with a slight smile. Napo¬leon rose again and said, "Thank you for sucha clear rendition, Mister Secretary.” He bowedto Hannibal, then addressed the expectantassembly again. "The first business before usis the admission of new members.” There wasa hum of excited conversation at that, for it hadbeen a hundred years now since there hadbeen news from Earth. Napoleon waved forsilence. "As usual.” he continued, "the ques¬tioning of the candidates will be conducted bythe esteemed members of the Committee onQualifications. He smiled and nodded to themen sitting at the table directly in front of him.And now the applause was really thun¬derous, and the ten members of the Committeeon Qualifications stood up in embarrassedacknowledgement—Alexander the Great, JuliusCaesar Charlemagne, Richard the Lion-hearted, Jenghiz Khan, Henry of Navarre,Marshal Ney, Wellington, Grant, and Rommel They sat down again quickly, but the applausethundered on for long minutes, as masteracknowledged masters.As the applause continued, a white robedmessenger from the Department of Admissionscame through the mists behind Napoleon andswoooooooped up to Napoleon and handed hima scroll. Napoleon took the scroll expectantly,for he had been waiting eagerly for this firstlisting of all the prospective new members, whohad, of course, only arrived at the stroke ofmidnight.He unrolled the scroll. He read it. He shookhis head as if confused He read the scrollagain. Then again. He looked at the messengerunbelievingly. The messenger nodded hishead—the scroll was absolutely true. Napoleonshook his head slowly, than held up his handan waved for silenceWhen all was quiet, he said, “Gentlemen, Ihave amazing news for you.” He hesitated.looked at scroll again, shook his head again,then continued: "To put it bluntly, the Depart¬ment of Admissions has just informed me thatwe have exactly one candidate for admission ”A loud gasp came from the audience. Ahundred years had passed on earth—yes, onEarth— and there was only one general in allthat time who could possibly qualify for mem¬bership. Unbelievable! It couldn’t be!Napoleon nodded his head sadly “Onecandidate,” he repeated. "Just one. Earth musthave changed considerably in the last hundredyears.” He shrugged his shoulders. “Well, wemight as well see what this solitary generallooks like He's in his chariot now. ready for hisentrance " And Napoleon pointed to the swirl¬ing mist at the far side of the banquet hall andshouted, as custom demanded. “Gentleman1 Igive you-GENERAL JOHN JONES'”Through the mist shot a war chariot drawn bytwo giant black horses The horses thundered around the edge of the banquet hall, fireshooting from their nostrils, their hoovespounding with awesome fury, and everyone inthe hall was on his feet as the horses finallydrew to a stop in front of the speakers' tableThere was a hushed silence, then a confusedmuttering as everyone turned to his neighbor toask if he saw the same thing—the same thingbeing exactly nothing. For no one could beseen in the chariot Where was General Jones?Finally Alexander the Great got up andstrode to the chariot He peered into the openrear end of the chariot. Then he shook his headwith disgust and reached in with a mighty handand held up by the scruff of his neck aquivering little man, who was distinctly heard bythe first few rows to moan, "How. oh how, did Iever get into this mess?”Napoleon groaned and shook his headHannibal groaned and shook his head TheCommittee on Qualifications groaned andshook their heads Everyone in the hall groanedand shook his head. The candidate had failedhis first test — miserablyAlexander let General Jones down slowlyuntil his shaking feet were on the ground Helet go of Jones, and Jones immediately starteda slow weave towards the floor Alexandergrabbed a nearby chair and sat Jones down onit. Then Alexander dusted off his hands dis¬gustedly and strode back to his seatAll stared unbelievingly at General Jones Hewas a small man. not more than five feet threeHe was dressed in an old brown suit—civies, ofall things — which bagged at the knees Hisface formed a perfect triangle, starting with ahigh, wide forehead and ending with exactly nochin Thick glasses covered his eyes And itwas glorious to everyone that the loud clickingthey heard was coming from the teeth of thecandidate“Sit up straight!” commanded Caesar. “Like a man!”“Ye-ye-yes, sir," said General Jones"YOU are a GENERAL?" asked Char¬lemagne unbelievingly."Ye—yes, sir. That is. I was I mean, I am.Oh. where am I? How did I ever get into thismess? Oh—oh—oh . ..”And General John Jones placed his head inhis hands and began to sniffle and sobThere was a cry from far back in thehall—“Enough! Vote him down1” Loud cries ofapproval arose at these wordsJust then another white robed messengercame through the mists and swoooooped up toNapoleon with a scroll. Napoleon took thescroll, unrolled it, and read it. Then he lifted hishead slowly, sheer amazement written on hisface He held up his hand for silence "Gentlemen,” he said, in a choked voice, "I have amessage from—” He nodded his head signif¬icantly upward and there was immediate total'silence Then Napoleon read the messageslowly:To: The Associated Generals of allEternityBanquet Hall84th LevelGentlemen“You are now interviewing candidateGeneral John Jones. In spite of the factthat he may not be considered qualifiedunder your present rules concerningadmission, you are hereby ordered toadmit him to your organization."General lones was the victor in thegreatest battle ever fought on Earth.

General Jones is the last of thegenerals of Earth and it is therefore onlyfitting that he be a member of yourorganization."There was a long silence while the audienceabsorbed these shocking words All headsturned towards Jones, who sat there, his headburied in his arms, sobbing And everyonestared at him, fascinated trying desoerately tofind in the person of this man an explanation forwhat they had just heard This man. thisthing—the victor in the greatest battle everfought on earth So great a battle that it was thelast battle that would ever be fought. How couldthis be?No one spoke No one dared to speak, untilfinally Marshal Ney. the bravest of the brave,stepped forward hesitantly from his seat Hecoughed slightly, to clear his throat, and thecough seemed to reverberate in booming, fan¬tastic echoes in the complete hush that haddescended over the hall General Jones.''asked Marshal Ney, addressing the sobbingman very cautiously, very politely, and veryslowly. “Would you—I mean—perhaps—well-how did you win the greatest and last battleever fought on Earth?”At these words General John Jones raisedhis head slowly, and his tormented face grewsuddenly quiet, and thoughtful, and very sadThen he looked at Marshal Ney. with infinitedetachment, and he stood up. and his bentshoulders became straight, and his bulbousforehead seemed to become even larger, andthrough the thickness of his glasses could beseen a keen brightness in his eyes, and hestared at the hushed assembly for a longminute“How'>” repeated General Jones, half tohimself "You ask me—how?... Why, l—" Hepaused and raised his right hand and looked at1, in seeming wonder Then he raised the indexfinger of his right hand for all to see. and then,quite delicately, tapped it once on an imaginaryobject, and in a shrill but firm voice spoke thesimple truth for all the generals of all eter¬nity—“Why." he said, "I—pushed a button ”Chester L Smith.

Inthis production, toe Court attains acomic book competence, without everdelving ino the depths of the play. Theinterpretation seems to be both Weakand incredible. Are we to believe thatJohn Rensenhouse’s RashamonhkeTartuffe would completely hoodwinkbourgeois Orgon because Orgon istoo consumed by his own guilt andreligious fear to have any spine?Perhaps, given that the twentiethcentury has hosted its share of evildespots; but as I remember, they wereall in costume whereas Rensenhouse'sTartuffe is clearly what he is. Some realcharm would have gone nicely overthat veneer Darth Vader veneer.Otherwise, good cameo appearancesby some newcomers. Set andcostumes adequate, competent by thedesigner of the Frugal Gourmet.

Sleep, whatthe hell you talking about? You’ve spent all thenight flopping around in bed like a beachedmackerel. 6:17 am—thirteen minute count¬down. Sailor dress or brown paisley? Ironing?Oh TO HELL with ironing. Just close your eyesand relax.

I look like hell, feel like hell, and willgive you hell if you DARE take that seat,lardass. My dollar bill choked down the fare boxas I made a hurdle for the orange seat up front.“Excuse me miss, that seat is reserved forthe elderly.’’“Sorry, ma’am, but I’m going through myninety-eighth life in reincarnation. And I can tellby your shoes that you’re only in your fiftieth.”The bus cruised at culture tour speed. Ilooked over the shoulder of the woman readingnext to me. She raised her left hand to turn apage. I flinched at sight of her watch until Irealized that I can only read digital time. Whenthere’s only one line on those clocks pointingstraight upwards, it’s time to eat, and when itlooks like a profiled stickman at the top of aslide, it’s time to go home. Other than that I liketo remain safely pacified in ignorance.Randolph St. The rapids of ironed suits andskirts pouring in white collar torrents down thepavement brings out instinctive terror in my gut.The heat of traffic exhaust burns my cheeks.The train rail rings with tuning fork rever¬berations which core my ears.Barron Enterprises: destination. I dou¬blecheck my assignment card. The receptionistlooks like a dimestore parakeet in her polyesterturquoise suit and yellow bouffant.“Hi, I’m Linn Valrey from Pro-Active Temps."“Hello, Linn, I almost called your agency tosee if they had someone coming in. Let meshow you where you’ll be working.”We walked through a grey catacomb of officecubicles.“Linn, I’d like you to meet Maryann O'Meara.She's Jim Gruffly’s secretary. You’ll be secret¬ary today for Vice-President Harry Carlton,replacing Jean Walker. My name is EdieBaumberger, by the way.”I sat down at my designated oasis to checkout the equipment: one dinosaur relic of an IBMMemory Selectric, a drawer full of greasy pens,clips yellow stickem note pads, and a hideous-looking telephone."Do you know how to work one of thesethings?"Miss O’Meara poked at the phone buttonswith her baroque pearl fingernails in demon¬stration. I could figure this out—no problem, Inodded. Her sea-urchin eyelashes blinked atme. Maryann, from what I could tell, was only acouple years older, a graduate from a Catholichigh school (Benedictine medal below thyroid),and already a married woman (fleck of dia¬mond not to interfere with typing speed on lefthand.) The phone was ringing.“Do you want to get that?” Maryann asked.Terror clawed at my reason. Answer it.You’re an eighteen-year-old female, and that’sa telephone. Blepblep-blepblep. It soundedmore like a computerized Bronx cheer than aringing.“Good morning, Barron Enterprises...Hold onone second, please.”I poked at a button.“Maryann? There’s some guy on here whowants Harry Carlton.”“Take a message. He hasn’t come in yet thismorning.”Retrieval button. Dial tone. Press receiverbutton. Still a dial tone.“Maryann? I think I—he hung up.”“Don’t worry, they’ll probably call back. I’mgoing to put on the machine for now because Ihave to show you where the copier is and giveyou a little test. According to our regulations,we just need a small urine sample from you asa determination of your Work Capacity L vel."No problem. I made my contribution towardsDixie Cup profits and took a deep whiff into myright nostril with a smile.“Hi, I’m Jim Gruffly, are you the new temp?"“Yes,” I said, chucking the bottle into mylap, “My name’s Linn. Can I help you?""Yeah, do you know where Maryann went?”“She’s checking my Work Capacity Level.”"Oh, uh-huh. I see. Well, Linn, could youpossibly get me some browns and whites—yaknow—the big ‘C’ and some little c’?”“What?” “CAFFEINE AND CUBES—coffee and sugarcubes!”By the time I had scampered and fetched Mr.Gruffly’s coffees, Maryann had returned andinformed me that I was wanted in Carlton’soffice. He was on the phone when I entered.Mr. Carlton was a stout, boiled potato of a manpast his prime. War and naval memorabiliadecked his walls along with corporate awardsand a gaudy caricature of Harry Carlton with hisgolf clubs and fishing rod, no doubt a co-workerpitched-in anniversary present.“Good Morning, young lady. It’s nice to haveyou working with us at Barron Enterprises. I seethat your Work Capacity level is at A-OK tip-topshape, and that means you are ready to typeme up a letter. Now here’s the format: I needthis for a meeting later this afternoon and it'llbe transferred onto a slide.

Blep-blep-blep-blep.‘‘Good Morning, Barron En¬terprises...Pardon?...I don’t think we have any¬one here by that name, would you like to leavea message?”For lack of anything better to do, I decided towork out my projected income for the month.The only available calendar on the desk was aFeline-Page-A-Day. Today’s picture was of acat crapping in a toilet with the caption of“Ralph, unfortunately he never learned toflush.” I didn’t look through the rest of themonth's pages. Instead, my eyes roved over tothe “made in Taiwan” sticker on a ceramicpaperweight of a bathtub saying, “I Had Tubfuls of Fun in Las Vegas.” Lunchtime. A Diet Coke rolled with the punchinto my hand as the other yanked back thepinball lever for some peanut m&m's. I satdown in a corner to read my book and channelout the soap opera haranguing on the lunch¬room television. The reception was bad, yetpeople still gazed toward it like Mecca. I rippedopen my Instant Winner Sweepstakes wrapperand peered inside after shaking out the m&m’s(Try Again, Sucker.) The women’s bathroomlounge was more in line of refuge, I thought.Two other women were in there already, how¬ever, curling their hair.“I can’t wait to get home for my ceramicsclass tonight. I’m working on this cute little frogjewelry box.”"Casey, I don’t understand you, for pete’ssake. While the rest of us are going home todrink wine coolers, YOU’RE doing CER¬AMICS.”At the desk, I was now responsible forMaryann's work during her lunch hour. I typedup a letter for Mr. Gruffly and left it in his officewhich was plastered with Orwellian primersigns of THINK. ANTICIPATE. DO. COMPETE.WIN. The built-in phone intercom buzzed forme back at my desk.“Miss Valrey, this is Carlton. Could you stepinto my office, please?”I entered, wondering whether or not tocurtsy.“Hi, I just wanted to ask you about thisinvoice for five cases of White-Out.”“They dry out quickly, sir.”“Well, have you thought of using thinner? AsI recall, we have about a case and a half ofthinner."Thinner. 1.3 ounces of pure per-chlorethylene. 1.3 ounces of rollercoasterheaven. One point threeeeeeee. Blep-blep-blep-blep.

Oh, you're going to lunch? Ha!Well, good for you.” Click.Mr. Gruffly was standing at my desk with aletter in hand.“This is the letter that you just typed for me.And, uh, I have a couple little correctionshere—like this ‘s’, for instance, should becapitalized.”“It’s perfectly correct.”“What?”“Yes, as an English major I can tell you thatmany sentences start with uncapitalized wordsthese days.

I might have been oneof them. I ran in lakes, when there were lakes,and I took stock of the deer as it twas mybounden duty to do so. I had deer. By thescore. In my barn; in the dead of winter youcould hear them crying out-how the heat frust¬rated them They longed to get out and run.They longed to luxuriate with the mobs. I hadtoo many and I had to shoot them. Then I hadone. I got the idea in my head that I could gethim to carry water for me. So I set him up witha team of dogs, barking beasts nipping at hisfeet as he stared indolently at the pine trees. Ibegan to wonder what there was in the god¬damned pine trees that was so interesting?! Ishouted at him. I guess he got the hint andbegan to watch the daisies. Until I had to askhim what there was in the daisies. He stared atme like I was stupid.Of course there were falcons. I don't evenknow why you need to ask. Wherever there aremountains, there will be those great careeningbirds with their beaks made out of stainlesssteel or polyeurothane. And squawking withgross pride.But there wasn’t much else, and you couldstare around you for miles-you could pick bonesabout the daisies’ infinite subject material, butthere was nothing there for me. And there Iwas, stuck in it, stuck like a pig in the mud,staring around me, getting as dumb as a deer,and thinking, now I know why they wanted tochop all those goddamned pine trees down,and now I know why they cement the daisyfields over because what do you do with them,except stare? I mean, they’re lovely and pre-servable, but they’re dull as all get out.I started thinking I could use some goodscience fiction or maybe a trashy Jackie Collinsnovel, because I’ve got my brain into such astate I don’t think anything can salvage it. Ithad begun to wind all around itself, like anadding machine out of control, spitting paper ingreat long spaghetti strands. You’re wonderingwhat I was doing out there, anyway? Well, sowas I, but I’d made this agreement with myfriend that we were going to do the JackKerouac thing, no ditching out, one hundredpercent, because it had become this kind ofnecessity see, that we get ahead and get ourminds straight-and eventually make lots ofmoney. Past twenty three, we were beginningto realize that we couldn’t be carefree, so wehad better get it out of our systems.That was what Gary said, as he punched abeer can in, which he was always doingbecause it amused him to bash his knucklesinto things. Gary had told me numerousamounts of times that he had to make money,so that it was bashed into my head, and Ibegan to think of my mind as that beer can,and his mouth as a giant set of knuckles. Onenight we were lying around his messy room,and he was talking and I was listening, and hewas saying, “You know what I’ve alwayswanted to do?” I winced, but this time he said,“I want to drive my 280Z all the way out toCalifornia, straight, like old Kerouac, there. Youheard of him?” Uh huh. “I want to get my 280Zout there on those deserts and let it feel the airslipping by. "Nothing about his own feelingsand sensations; what he felt, he felt through thesteel body of his car. “Hitchhiking would bemore fun,” I ruminated, lolling on the floor andswinging my foot with its dirty sneaker over myother knee. “You know, meeting truckdriversand bums.”Gary laughed, "You get killed doing that, youknow it. What we’ll do is split up and have ourown separate experiences and meet.”On a big dull mountaintop, I forget the name,in Colorado. He might as well have said in thetalons of the last Bald Eagle in America. We’dlink hands, airborne, over the Rockies.And when he arrived, if he ever did, onUnknown Mountain, he’d forcefully turn myhead this way and that and say, "See? Na¬ture." And I’d say, “Yeah, trees.” And thepoetry would flow from out of poor frustratedGary’s lungs, his metal lungs, his carbonmonoxide, hydraulic lungs. "The mountains fallbelow me as if in worship of my big man headtechnology empiricism. The sky is a lollingunicorn.” Gary had tried to push these thingsover on the college poetry mag, which hadgrinningly turned away, hiding their laughter asthey coughed, palefaced into their crumpled,tortured fists. Gary never recovered from thisrejection. But rejection only propelled him, likean able astronaut into other spheres, otherworlds-the world of nature would have hispoetry if the poetry mag would not.So I stood there reflecting on my story aboutthe deer carrying the water-1 was just arriving ata solution, when the cynicism returned, and Iguess I'd better warn you about the cynicism.You see, it had reared its ugly head years agoone October night, around Halloween, and what it had a tendency to do was to kill my initiativeto do things by making me laugh in a verybiting way at myself. I had been trick or treatingwith the Dobsons, Lynn and Oren, and sud¬denly I made a wisecrack, out of the blue,about Lynn’s rabbit ears. You know, I can’tthink of one cynical thing to say, to this day,about rabbit ears, and I can’t imagine what atwelve year old could have concocted, buteither way, Lynn, without further ado (And I stillrespect her for her response, even if her rabbitears flopped) turned, with Oren’s hand, and therest of his body quickly followed, and they weregone, and I was forced to go door-to-door allalone. That was the most miserable night of mylife.After that, I couldn’t get enough of thatpowerful liquid. It seasoned my tongue for thenext few years, guarded friends and kids fromnear proximity by its strong odor. And the funnything was that I had no control over it. I didn’tknow when I would become cynical but imme¬diately afterwards, I felt nasty and guilty, andmostly lonely.Now I looked at the goddamned pines. Well,they weren’t goddamned, I said. They weresloping, and slender and lucious. With thoseneedles poking right out of them, and the waythey seem to pierce the sky-yes, that’s a lovely,simply lovely image-they prick the sky, like aneedle poking a big, beautiful blue balloon. AndI laughed. I was too funny, and where the hellwas Gary, how long was I supposed to wait onthis insipid mountain after all? The only Ker¬ouac prose poetry popping into my head wasrancid nursery school imagery about balloons. Iwas degenerating. I was seeing deer. I wasshooting deer, and I’m normally a non-violentperson.But suddenly I saw his little 280Z. He wouldcome up and rant about Nevada or something,while I was supposed to report on Canada. Heturned the car off. “John! You're here! Isn’t thisgreat? No one around for miles. We’re allalone. Why, I could kill you! And no one wouldknow!" As if I should be thrilled. He waswearing his surfing outfit, and a stupid baseballcap, and staring at the pine trees like the-forgetthe deer. They never existed.“See any wild animals?” He said.I shook my head. "So how was Canada?" hecouldn’t wait."Well,” gently, “To tell the truth, Gary, I flewhere. I didn’t see Canada. l..uh..got tied upuntil the last minute." So while he was point-lessly driving all over the west coast, gatheringdata to share with me, I was sitting in my roomdismantling a model airplane from my youthand flinging the remainders into the waste can.And he looked ready to bash something likebig tan knuckles into me-those beefy knuckles Ihad admired and feared, gripping the leathersteering wheel, shining beneath the amber sunlike little mountains in the desert...“What's with you? I don’t get it. What thefuck-l'd like to know how you can play me forsuch a fool.”“Well-""Nothing. You were doing nothing. It’swritten all over your empty, dead, sick littleface. I can see what you've been doing, whatyou’ve been thinking. You're going nowhere.That’s what you’re doing. You're wasting awayand soon you'll be gone, you'll have justevaporated, or decayed. You’re completelydead.”You had to give the guy some credit forbeing perceptive. He was absolutely right. I wasdead. Sitting on my ass feeling crappy. Be¬cause of my life. “Well I’m just not happy rightnow,” I said.“Not happy?!” He nearly screamed my ears across the valley and over the border. "What’swrong?”With this invitation for open discussion-1mean his voice was echoing all over thecanyon-how much more open can you get-lembarked on the weary, familiar journey of mysorry, cynical soul. Why I couldn’t enjoy life likehim. Why I couldn’t wear surfing clothing andbaseball caps like I meant business. Why Ididn’t want to take a Jack Kerouac trip andthen, after that, go settle down with a wifenamed Julie and make money. How could Iexplain all that to him? He didn’t want to hearit. It was exactly what he loathed in people.That lack of willingness to play the games. Ifyou wouldn’t try and exert a little musc!e-if youwouldn’t-yes, but what the hell was I exertingthe muscle for?! Chopping another pile ofwood? Killing off another business deal?"That’s a kickass pine,” he was saying,“Doesn’t that pine make you happy?""Yeah, it makes me happy.”“And doesn't that birch there make youhappy?”"Yeah, kind of.”"Not so much, eh?”"No.”“You like the pines better.”"Yeah.”"Look, you little bugger, you gotta cheer up.We’ll go get some wine and play country music.I know of this place where you can watch cowsgetting-hey, cheer up, can’t you? I’m not mad.Canada schmanada "How could I begin to explain to him that hisanger didn’t frighten me, his enthusiasm didn’taffect me, and his love of life bored me? Howcould I begin to tell him he was just like amillion other people in the world, that he wasn'tan "individual." He was balking about the pinecones and how they fell into the canyon, orsomething, and he imagined that there wherebears, then he went on to explain the SanAndreas Fault, and there I stood, as he piled onone fact after another, in his doctorly manner(because he was going to be a doctor. He wastaking his MCATS soon.) When he had finishedwith the Fault, he began to explain how theIndian reservations in the Southwest had beenfalling apart, and the Indians were poor andnobody cared. “It just pisses me off!" Hebanged his fist on the hood of his car. "Youknow? They live out there, they know the landbetter than we do-they understand it. Theyunderstand the spirit of the land, its transcen¬dent meaning. Not just the soil, but what’sunder- it-how to make the soil work, how tomake it talk-”Finally I’d had enough of his chatter. "Itdoesn't talk,” I said. He stopped. But he wasn’tdaunted; no, not him. He had an extra layer, aprotective coat. And under that, a third and afourth, an endless supply of resistances, so thatif anything hindered his path of thought, hiscourse in life, he could bounce back, in hisregular doctorly way.He just said, “Well, of course it doesn’t talk,but it does have its own language When thewind blows it stirs it up-the soil is complainingof being too dry, so it gets into your eyes, justto let you know, like it’s saying "water me.”"That’s ridiculous. Besides, if only Indiansknow that, how is it that you know it too?”“And their culture. You know that they havepeace codes-like-under all of thir edicts andsocial rules there is this law about beingpeaceable?”“Yeah.”“I just think it's so amazing. But look, what'sgetting you down? We’re going to sit on thisrock-no, not that one. it looks too sharp. Here,on the grass and talk.” It was enough I had made it up here, and Ihad done it to satisfy him. But now, now he hadto drag the thing out. We were supposed tostay the night and then drive somewhere. Iwould have dumped my “driveaway” off wher¬ever. Those were the plans. But I didn’t have a“driveaway,” I didn’t have any souvenirs,memoirs, or facts. I had no experiences, and nodesire whatsoever to talk to this maniac here onthis hillside. Friends once, but time had donesomething to both of us. College had killed myenthusiasm for life, and had woken his up,touched his chords and sensory organs andsent shock waves and spasms all over hismuscle sheaths. But it had clamped down mysystem, turned it off for good. I closed my eyesand hugged my knees on the grass My headwas pounding. He wanted me to spill my gutsthere all over the grass, like a dead deer, falland there remain. Ah, I felt stifled.“Gary, I can’t stay here any longer. I’ve gotto go somewhere where I can think.”"What better place than on a mountain top?”Alone perhaps. Even with an armed riflethough, I would never really have felt alonethere, even with Gary miles away. It wasn’t mymountain. Anyone could come walking up, anddo whatever they wanted to me. It wasn’t myproperty. I wanted to go home, as miserable ashome was to me. At least in my room, I couldtear my own possessions to pieces and receiveno criticism.I wondered would Gary’s layers run out?Would the dull finish below finally show-theunpainted metal under the shiny coat, thenaked wood, the rusty spots? Uncovered onlyonce, when he was drunk, he had amazed mewith his ugliness. Once, and I had realized howfake of a friendship it was.He heaved a little, breathed heavily like abeast, then calmed, and said. “Okay. Fine.Forget the fact that we made an agreement,that you backed out. It’ll be on your conscience,not mine."Conscience? I didn't even have an existence.I rarely had a mind anymore, at this stage ofthe game, how could the threat of a guiltyconscience affect me? I laughed to myself,feeling a bit mirthful at Gary’s expense-regardless. the first time in a few weeks I’dlaughed.“You’re really one unhappy sonovabitch,aren't you? When I knew you in school, youliked to go out and take chances. You liked tolive. You were fun. Now, you've kind of shriv¬elled up.”“It’s not that Gary ” I would give it a try. Tryand explain what was going on inside my head.“You see. then it was new. you know, cuttingup all the time, being silly. I’d never goofedaround so much. Running away from the world,responsibility, but now, I just can't do it. It’s old.I have to find something else in my life. I spentso much time annhilating everything with mydrinking and cyncism that there’s nothing left.Gary. I’m more alive now than I was in college,drinking all the time, laughing at everyone Iwas in a blur all the time. I’m thinking now. I’mreally-’’"You're more alive now? Ha! That's believ¬able. You know, if I’d seen you six months ago.you would have been friendly-you'd have beentalking about all the good times you werehaving, or your latest girlfriend, or yourstudymg-whatever you’re studying I mean,what do you do now?

He’d been playing rac-quetball, studying his anatomy books and goingto those irritating North Side parties everyweekend and discussing baseball games withhis other “up and coming” friends. That was"living” and everything else was deathOnce, at school, about our junior year. Gary,and Pig (Gary’s best friend who belonged tothis fraternity' but laughed at it behind its back,and drank beer with the same devotion a priesthas to holy water) were swaggering to someridiculous thing at Pig’s frat party called “OpenBar" where everyone dressed up as if theywere forty and rich already-some horrid fore¬shadowing. I mean, they didn't intend to lookforty, but they did. That was the awful thingabout it. They were rushing their lives so Icouldn’t figure out why they wanted to rush it,catapult along to the dreary end at breakneckpaces, trying to beat each other to the finishline with vices. Smoking faster than each other,drinking more, screwing more. More, more,more. And their young, still unblemished facesbeginning to show wearWhat was I doing there? Oh yes, I rememberI had been dragged I wouldn't have gonevoluntarily, but they had gotten one beer intome, and took me there at the peak of myjocularity, wearing my grubby clothing. Now.you could get by with a certain amount ofgrubbiness, but I was wearing no shoes, and abaseball cap-oh, and no shirt. And we had abottle of wine stowed under our coats Pig wassinging.

Emenari UNTITLEDcontinued from page 9and was laughed at by her and her friend.People stared at me like I was a hopelessoutcast, and at that moment then and there, Iwas. I was the least desireable human being toapproach in the whole world. Surely therewasn’t a single thing I had in common with oneperson in that room-and that shouldn’t havemattered. I could have just walked away from itand mixed among my own crowd. The onlyproblem was my own crowd was mixing amongthese people too. What was going on was aliving nightmare.I had to shake myself out of this. I had tostop hovering in the corner. I forced myself,with all of the self-control and willpower I couldfind in my grudging soul, to make conversation,stupid shallow dead-end conversation withsome chick.“God," I said, turning to her suddenly, andlaughing at something-at nothing I could pin¬point except the whole world-“l don’t know howI ended up here." I had picked her out aslooking slightly disinterested in the whole scenetoo.She looked at me. She was fairly un¬attractive, but had enough make-up on todisguise this dreadful misfortune. What her lifemust be like; what agony she must experiencelooking at herself in the mirror in the morning.How the future must stretch out bleak andhusband-less for her. What I mean is, when sheturned to me, I realized she really had the makeup piled on. And perfume! God! She had adrink in her hand which she wasn’t reallydrinking either, but when she did, she lookedaround nervously as if she felt guillty at drink¬ing, and took tiny sips that infuriated me tosuch a point I wanted to tip her head back andbelt the whole thing down her insipid throat."Well then why don’t you leave?" she said.I was little put-off. My experience with partiesis that they are some sort of opportunity toexpand your horizons and meet new people,and the general behavior at them is friend¬liness. Granted my opener was a bit of a closer,but her rejoinder was a bit of an alienator.“Well, I like to watch people and cut themdown,” I said.She could have moved away, but maybe shefound me funny, or maybe this was the latestgame in flirting and I had like some bunglingscientist stumbled upon it accidently. She said,“I’m sure there’s nothing you could cut medown about.”Well, let’s get personal then. Okay honey.“No?” I said. How 'bout that muck on yourface? When you sweat does it melt off? "I’msure you’re wrong. I’d love to cut you down.”“Well go ahead. I have plenty of things Icould say about you.”“Well first of all you look like plastic.” I don’tthink she was ready yet. She turned red, whichwas hard to discern under all of her make-upbut I could tell because her yellow eyeshadowturned orange, and I do know something aboutthe color wheel. Anyway, she said, “At least it’sclean.”“Do you use dish detergent to clean it then ifit’s plastic?”"Do you wash yours with mud?"“What’s the shit on your eyelashes? You fallin an inkwell?” I was getting bored with this.But she was right in her element. At last shefound someone with whom she could converseon her own level. I walked right away from herand grabbed Pig. “We’re leaving.” He didn’tmind, as he usually wouldn’t. Gary had to stay.He was leaning against a wall and talking tosome girl. “We’re going Gar.”He turned, like an asshole turns, not likeGary turns, slowly, as if I’d interrupted him, as ifI should bend down and apologize on myknees. He glared. “I’m staying.” He’d found hiselement.Pig and I walked across the parking lot and Icried. We were drinking the last of the wine infront of the library and people were staring atus as they walked by carrying books, and I justset the bottle down, oh, reciting poetry orsomething. Feeling very alive and very rebel¬lious, and Pig was singing, backing my poetryup very well. We were drawing all kinds ofattention, we danced around the bottle, and Pigwaved it like it was a flag, then he smashed it,and I started to cry.He ran to me, “Did I hurt you?"“No. Gary did.”Tears. Odd things. Burns, sprains, brokenlimbs, Pig could deal with. Bloody noses, over¬indulged stomachs, puking drunks, but nottears. What did you do? He sat down next tome and looked around. He looked around likehe was about to say something. He looked likehe wanted to do everything in the world morethan that-for-me, and I really loved him for thatthen. I really hated Gary too, and it was thecause of this.. Well I looked at the brokenglass. There was no poetry in my head now. Ifelt kind of empty, and hard, like I’d turned intoa very solid, but unfeeling thing-my stomach,my head, my lungs, all felt so., well, healthy,but dead. I felt nothing. I was almost asleep.“Anyway, let’s get out of this stinking parkinglot.”He didn't know what upset me about GaryGary, who had laughed at those frat idiots, whohad said he would never conform, who had, inshort, created half of my life for me and more,given my thoughts meaning, was suddenlyditching me for a lifestyle. If I could have seen it coming, this onslaught of conservatism.We’d gone out to bars, and parties, messingsituations up, and staying out all night. We’draided every university function. On graduation,he smiled at me and said, "You’re my bestbuddy and never forget that.” At the banquetafterwards, though, he sat with some friendsfrom his chemistry classes, and joked aroundwith some of his professors. He left with hisparents, and later, weeks later, sent me somedull formal letter about medical school and hissummer, and racquet ball. Tentative then. “Ohyeah, and I’m playing racquetball now, if youcan believe it. Me, playing racquet ball. But I’vebeen so bored out here in the suburbs I’vestarted seeing old friends, and I think I’m gonnamove to the North Side with my old friendJimmy who’s into trading. I’m also seeing thisgirl, Mindy.”“Well fuck this. I have better things to do. Ifyou can’t straighten your problems out...” Garystood up. “I don’t want to sound callous, butit’s a tough world, and you gotta do things onyour own, you know. No one else is gonna-”“Hey, where did this father-son shit comefrom? Since when do I need to come to you foradvice? Huh? I think I’m pretty capable!”“Good! Well then stop acting like a god¬damned baby! Like the whole world’s gotta takecare of you cause you’re down in the dumpsthis week, or this month or year or lifetime! I putup with a lot of shit from you-""Oh really? Cause I didn’t give you any shit.You know what that was, Gary? That wasfriendship. Give and take. I guess you didn’trealize that it’s all in the line of duty, doing afew things for a friend occasionally. Over theyears, how many times have I really leaned onyou?” It was true. When I had catastrophes.Pig had been there, or Alex, another pal ofmine. But Gary, he was available for the goodtimes, when I was lighthearted. When I wasn’t,when I moped about something, he had othercommitments.“I’ll never forget that time you took me tothat frat thing and just left me there, me andPig, and acted like you didn't know us. Youknow what you are? A fucking social climber!”“So are you. Everyone is. What else shouldwe do with our lives? Sit around and stagnate?I made new friends. You did nothing. Youstared at your knuckles and waited for thephone to ring. You could have been out thereliving, but instead you were too lazy, youdecided, ’No, I’ll let other people come tome.’ ” Gary sat down, gasping, then jumpedup, clutching his keys. "I’m getting out of here.You want a ride, fine. I'm going now.”I stood back. “Don’t you want to see thepines? We came up here to see the pines Gary!Come on. Look at the pines!”He turned. “No, I don’t have time. I don’thave time to deal with you and your problemsanymore.”“You got me to fly out here for nothingGary.”“You were supposed to drive, asshole. Be¬sides, it’s not my fault you changed your mindand didn't want to enjoy being here. I’mperfectly willing to stay.”“Then let’s stay.”He paused, “No."I held my ground, feeling delirious, raving,“Let’s stay. We’ll prance around and throw ourclothing off Gary.”“No. You’re going mad."“Yes, I am.”“John..” Gary edged towards me. Maybe itwas my position, like a quarterback ready tocharge. And the combination of an insane lookin my eyes. I wanted to drive him off his nut,unpeel his layers amd weaken him, like he hadweakened me. I lunged at him. He ran awayand got in the car, locking it up. I ran around it,pounding on it, and laughing while he watched,but refused to drive away.We stayed like that awhile. Me running, andthen stopping occasionally to catch my breath.What finally happened was that the mooncame out, and the stars, and somethingclicked. We just calmed down. Like, it was thesun or something, heating us both up. Gary gotout of the car and sat on the grass, and I satbeside him, and then, after a brief silence, I fellback and lay there laughing. Gary said,“What’s so funny?”But I couldn’t answer. Finally I said, “Thiswhole situation. Gary, promise me one thing.”“What?”“When you go off and become a doctor andget rich, you don’t scorn me for doing what I dowith my life, even if it is nothing?”“Who says you’re going to do nothing withyour life? You’ll probably do more with your lifethan I’ll ever do with mine.”I laughed, “No kidding.”“Yeah. I’ve always been jealous of you. Allthe things you know how to do. You’re ahelluva lot smarter.” He rubbed his foreheadand sighed, as if relieved I had calmed down,as if exhausted, but all of his muscles wererelaxed, and his heart was beating at a goodrate. "Let’s get out of here."We drove out of there by way of BerthoudPass. There were deer grazing on these tuftsalong the side of the road, buried among rocksand brambles, like mountain goats, which re¬minds me, speaking of deer... Well, it’s justwhen you get on the road these silly ideascome to you- I looked over at old Gary andwanted to tell him about the deer story of minebut he would have thought me, well, at worst,terribly silly, just terribly silly.“Gary, you wouldn't believe what I startedthinking about on that old mountain before yougot there.”10—FRIDAY, December 5, 1986— GREY CITY JOURNALJust bring in any size color print film for quality developingand printing by Kodak.

That’s exactlywhat the men and women of theUniversity's swimming team put them¬selves through, either at the 7-9 am or3:30-5:30 pm practice sessions, during thecoldest days of our bitter Chicago winters.They leave Bartlett with damp heads toarrive back at their dorms, ffats andapartments with frozen coiffures and achinglimbs. For all their efforts they receivevarsity awards, the occasional invitation tothe NCAA Division III ChampionshipMeet, but not a new pool.Coach Kevin Fober frankly statesthat the size of the pool and the lack of afull women's roster are two factors holdingback the team's progress. Both the menand women performed well in a meet inMilwaukee on November 21 againstMarquette University's club team. First-year student Louise Wilkerson swam . 27seconds off the time needed to qualify forNationals, as she set school records in the200 and 100 meter breast stroke. CaptainsBeth Anderson and Esta Spalding won their 100 meter freestyle and backstroke racesrespectively. Anderson also grabbed a 2ndin the 500 meter freestyle, while LeslieHam returned to the squad after a year’sabsence and earned a victory in the 50meter freestyle event Mary Beth Novytook second in the one meter divingcompetition. Novy, a second-year student,epitomizes the double roles which thewomen must assume in order tocompensate for their small numbers. Sheand fourth-year student Ellen Brown willboth have swimming and divingresponsibilities to fulfill this season.The men certainly don't sufferfrom this burden. Coach Fober com¬mented that he might even have to cut afew swimmers from the men's squad beforethe Midwest Athletic Conference Champ¬ionships. The men handily defeated theirMarquette opponents, snagging firsts inseven events from five different swimmers.Ed Rowand won the 500 and 1000 meterfreestyle; Kevin Minis, the 200 meterfreestyle and butterfly; Tord Alshabkhoun,the 50 meter freestyle; Ben Forest, the 200meter breast stroke, and Alex Henson, the200 meter backstroke. Forest andAlshabkhoun also teamed up withfreshmen Mims and Jason McPhate to winthe 400 meter medley relay. The largemen's team gives Coach Fober moreflexibility to swim the best and mostrested swimmers in each heat This is aluxury which the women can't afford.Coach Fober realistically hopes toplace third in the ConferenceGrapplers begin new seasonBy Andy RabinowitzContributing Writer PHOTO BY BU SIMMSDavid Goldman competes In the freestyle for the MaroonsThe Chicago wrestling squad, ranked18th in NCAA Division III last year beganthe new season sluggishly, but outpointedElmhurst College 22-15 Tuesday,November 25 at the Blue Jays' home gym.The meet began with the defeat ofdefending 118 pound Midwest Conferencechampion Landall Cormier. The BlueJays' Chuck Candfield, who Cormier hadbeaten perviously, speedily outpointedCormier over two periods. Cormiermanaged to earn points during the third andfinal period, but could not overcomeCanfield’s early lead. Thus Elmhurst ledby 3 team points for a victory by decision.The Maroon’s Joe Bochenski, a 126 poundparticipant in last year's prestigiousMidlands tournament, then dropped adecision to Steve Ryniewicz to give theBlue Jays' a 6-0 lead.Chicago quickly evened the team scorewhen Elmhurst's Joe Gillano (134 pounds)had to withdraw because of a shoulderinjury, awarding the Maroons 6 points forthe forfeit.The momentum swung in Chicago's favorwhen 150 pound Brian Omelia pinnedGeorge Sigovsky as the first period drew toa close. The pin gave the Maroons a 12-9lead.Returning Midwest Conferencechampion Mickey Best (158 pounds) putChicago ahead for good, dominating MarkKoziol to gain a 4 point major decision.177 pound Quentin Paquette, andHeavyweight Cary Stamal earned decisionsover Jon Maclaughlin and Mike Kitchka,respectively. Stamal pulled out his victoryin the closing minute of the third and finalperiod, making the final score 22-15 infavor of Chicago.Later in the week, Coach LeoKocher and Bochenski, Omelia, and BestBy Maria M. Del FaveroStaff WriterThe Men’s Varsity Basketball Teamwon their home opener and first conferencegame last Saturday against Lake ForestCollege. The Maroons entered the gamewith a record of 1-1 after playinR in theMIT Koch Classic in Boston November 21- made the three and one half hour journeyto Madison Wise. Friday night to competein what Kocher called a "meat grinder".This NCAA Division I tournament hostedan estimated three hundred participants,including All-Americans, and NCAAchampions.Bochenski was the first man to test hismettle, losing to a Former All-American,Alan Grammar (Southern IllinoisCarbondale) on a technical decision(winning by fifteen points or more).However, Bochenski rebounded from hisloss in the first bout, pinning DuPage'sScott Frego, then beating Wisconsin's DanEvanson in an extremely close bout thatwas decided by the referee. Evanson waslast year's "Espoir" national champion, atournament for wrestlers under 20 yearsold.A loss to Northwestem'sAllan Seeley-James sealed the day for Bochenski.Omelia sealed his fate early, losing closedecisions to Tim Hoffland (unattached) andto Gene Vacarro (Marquette). TheMaroons are scheduled to grapple withMarquette on Feb. 7th, 1987, so Omeliawill probably wrestle Vaccaro again. Bestwon his first bout over Du Page's SteveEwoldt, but Wisconsin's All-Americancandidate Paul McShane manhandled him,sewing the second technical decision of theday against a Maroon grappler. Best wenton to lose again, this time toNorthwestern's Brad Traviola. CoachKocher felt Best could have won the bout.Competition against the nation's bestwrestlers is what Kocher wants. "Theexperience gives them the confidence theyneed," he said returning from Madison."Now well start working harder, and workon executing moves under pressure inpractice. Before Saturday's Northern open,the emphasis was on perfecting techniquesin slow motion."The Maroons should be ready to go fullspeed soon.22.Chicago came on strong in the firsthalf. After losing the tip, senior guardMike Clifford brought the ball down thefloor and hit a 3 point shot to put theMaroons ahead. They held on to this leadthroughout the, game The team playedsmart ball in the first half with good shot Championship. Grinnell has won themeet for the past eight years and theirdomination of the conference doesn't seemlikely to let up. Lake Forest will returnall of their point sewers and will probablyrepeat in the runner-up spot. Coe tookthird place last year, Nit, based upon hissquad’s showing, at an IIT relay meet onNovember 15^ (together with theencouraging results at Milwaukee), CoachFober believes the team can improve on itsfourth place finish last year. In the nineselection, ball movement and a minimumof personal fouls. At the half, the teamwent to the locker room leading LakeForest by a sewe of 41-26.Opening the scoring for Chicago in thesecond half was junior Tom Redburg, whoconverted for a 3 point play after beingfouled. The Maroons continued to stayahead, but the mode of play changed.Coach John Angelus substituted membersof the bench continuously during the half,looking fw combinations other than hisstarting five that would work. As a result,the team had trouble maintaining the levelof consistency they demonstrated in thefirst half, committing numerous turnoversand personal fouls. Lake Forest outscoredChicago in the half by one, but theMaroons remained victorious by a score of74-61.Angelus continues to stress that inBy Arzou AhsanStaff WriterChicago Women's Basketball savedwhat would have otherwise been a boringgame with an exciting and agressive catch¬up performance in the last five minutes.Though the Maroons lost to WheatonCollege 54-49 those few minutes wereworth the free ticket the Henry CrownField House.Once again turnovers (11 in the firsthalf) and poor shooting (37% from thefloor) hurt the Maroons. Taking advantageof Chicago's lacklustre play, Wheatonjumped out to a 12-4 lead five minutesinto the game. Fw the next twenty-fiveminutes of play, the Crusaders lead variedbetween 4 and 10 points.Maria Del Favero provided the onlyspark in the Maroon’s first half play. Sheshot 5 for 5 from the floor, helpingChicago get within 4 points halfway intothe period. This was the closest Chicagowould get until late in the second period.Most of the action took place in thesecond half when starter Madelyn Detloff,Cindy Cockrel and sixth man RuthWilliams came in and breathed some lifeinto the Maroon's game. Trailing by tenwith 5:10 left to play, Detloff turned onher outside shot, sinking three in a row.On the other side of the court Williams andCockrel turned off the Crusader offensewith agressive board play and some timelysteals. This put the score at 5148 with events in which our swimmers competed atIIT, their times were faster in all but two.In the team standings, the Maroonsimproved two places from last year’sfinish.One can't help but wish thesededicated athletes continued success and thedonation of funds for a new Olympic-sizeswimming pool from some munificentalumnus or kind-hearted philanthropistwho just happens to have a few milliondollars lying around.order fw the team to have a successfulseason, the bench has got to perform.After the game, he commented, "We cameready to play and won. However we havea lot of work to do. We have to play 40minutes of consistent basketball. Thesubstitues have got to be ready off thebench."Leading Chicago in scoring was seniortri-captain Dave Witt. Witt played anoutstanding game, racking up 24 pointsand pulling down 10 rebounds. Tri-captains Clifford and Tom Lepp ended theday with 14 and 11 points, respectively.Other starters , Redburg and Tom Falloonshot fw 10 and 9 points.The Maroons overall record now standsat 2-1 and 1-0 in conference. Their nextgame will be played tomorrow, SaturdayDec. 6 at 3 P.M. in the HCFH againstconference rival Ripon College2:27 left to play.It looked as if the Maroons were goingto pull it off. However, Chicago failed tosewe five on the next five possessions.Fortunately, Wheaton wasn't putting theball in either.Wheaton broke this scoreless streakwhen Janet Thomas sank the first half ofone and one. With less than a minute leftto play Detloff got an excellent pass insideto Del Favero, but her pump fake didn'tfool the Crusaders, and the the Maroonswere still 4 points behind.On Chicago's next possession Detloffdrew a critical foul. She sank the first ofher two shots, bringing the team withinthree points with :30 left. However, bothveterans, Detloff and Kathy Fitzpatrick,had 4 fouls a piece. In the ensuingconfusion over who should foul in order tostop the clock, the Maroons lost twentyseconds. Thomas sank both her free-throwsto give Wheaton the five point win.Dedoff, Del Favero, and Cockrel, all ofwhom were recently placed on theAmerican Women’s Sports Federation All-American watch list, performed toexpectations. Del Favero tallied 16 pointsfor the night. Detloff finished with 12, 8of which which she sank in the last 10minutes of the game. Cockrel dominatedthe boards, pulling down 7 rebounds.The Maroons will use a longholiday break to prepare for a toughconference season.

ViewsofSportBad attitudes, poor sportsmanship plague the NFLBy Sam MillerSports ColumnistNearly every sport protects the stars thatgive it glory. Tennis protects its top seedsby giving them relatively easy first roundmatches during long tournaments. Hockeymakes room on its squads every year forone or two untalented goons to personallychaperon its best players. And in baseball,managers talk about "protecting" theaverages of star hitters by placing certainother hitters before or after them in thelineup.These sports are rightly concernedabout the health of their main attractions,and pro football is no different This iswhy, in recent years, the NFL has draftednew rules intended to protect their glamourboys, the runners and passers. Whistles areblown earlier to prevent pile-ups onrunners, and sacks are recorded if thequarterback is merely in the grasp of adefender. These prevent a certain amount ofpunishment those particular players used joreceive. Such developments, however, will donothing if violent and unnecessarypenalties such as the one that knocked JimMcMahon on his shoulder last week arenot eradicated. Nearly every fan has seenhow, 5 seconds after a completed play,Charles Martin of the Green Bay Packerstossed the beleagured Bear leader to the coldChicago carpet It was a blatantly viciousdemonstration of individual malice, orstupidity, or both. For his unruly behaviorMartin was removed from the contest andsuspended for two more without pay. Thereaction of his teammates and other playersaround the league also displayed a bit ofviciousness and some stupidity as well.Their attitude only punishes themselves.After Martin tackled McMahon, severalplayers greeted him on the sidelines withhigh-fives and clench-fisted salutes ofsupportive enthusiasm. Mossy Cade, aPacker playmate, was one of those happycomrades. He later explained his ringsideglee by telling reporters that thequarterback "had what was cornin’ too him." He had deserved to be thrownunceremoniously on his bad shoulder? HadMcMahon thrown the ball at Martin orother Packers on purpose to earn suchcomeuppence? No. He was merelyinvoved in a rough game, and so became atarget Cade even called the play "A greatpenalty on his (Martin's) part." Otherteammates and players around the leaguejust shrugged and said, well, that's thegame of football.But deliberately hurting a player cannever be "great," and it should never bejust a part of the game of football. Whenthe players take this attitude, they will behurt by it. Maybe that explains whyinjuries have increased so much lately,stealing the spotlight from the healthyplayers on the field. With no teamdominating the league his year, eyes havefocused on the bad back of Joe Montana,the injury of Danny White, and the forcedretirement of Tim Lewis. So manyprominent players are or have been hurtthis year. Montana, White, Gastineau,Freeman McNeil, and many others.And here's something to ponder. Onlyone current quarterback has started morethan 17 games in a row, Phil Simms, whomissed his first 3 years in the league due tovarious ailments of his own.Fans are beginning to pay moreattention to outpatient lists then they areto statistic lists.If the players continue to shrug, theywill continue to fall. They are not,however, the only N.F.L. people with attitude problems. The coaches can stopsome of the violence. Forrest Gregg, theleader of the Packers, probably does notorder his players to maim the opposition.He might not condemn it sternly, though,and this he has to do. It is said that a teamis molded in the image of its coach. If so,that image should project into one thatnever tolerates dirty play. The coach setsthe example for his team; if he condonesunnecessary violence, so will his players.Gene Upshaw, the head of the PlayersAssociation, believes that the officialsoften condone violence by letting gamesget out of control. Some officials blink atthe sight of what they might consider anuneventful infraction. When the Bears andthe Packers meet, everyone knows thegame will be overly physical. The officialsknow this. What they should do, Upshawinsists, is talk to both coaches and captainsbefore the game and warn them to play bythe rules. Then they should penalize forroughness from the outset, not ignoring asingle roughness penalty. Football shouldbe violent energy controlled and used towin, not to harm.Commisioner Pete Rozelle has punishedCharles Martin for his offense. Now theplayers themselves have to wake up andstop shrugging off dirty play as merelypart of the game. Once the players,coaches, and officials start giving moreregard to the health of the combatants,injuries will occur less frequently. And thefans can enjoy the sport for what it is, notwhat it shouldn't be.ALL CONFERENCE UPDATEThe Midwest Conference and MACW All-Conference selections for the 1986 footballand soccer seasons include four Chicagoathletes with first team recognition, andfive honorable mentions:FOOTBALLFirst Team: Jim Kapotas, (Sr.) OffensiveLineman; Dave Baker, (Sr.) Defensive End: Ted Repass, (Sr.) Linebacker...

The Maroonencourages responses to this Viewpoint.Letters should be addressed to theViewpoint editor, the Chicago Maroon,1212 E. 59th St., Room 305.On November 17 International Houseand the Chicago Sun-Times sponsored aconference in Mandel Hall called "ASearch for Solutions: USA-USSR." Wethink it is important to discuss someaspects of the conference. Immediatelyupon entering Mandel Hall one washanded a questionaire which wasrepresentative of the point of viewexpressed at the conference. Here are foursample questions (the allowed responsesbeing yes and no):#1. Do you think the Soviets areengaged in subversion in Latin America?#10. Do you believe that the terroristwar being waged against the peoples,governments, and values of the West hasSoviet backing?#15. Do you think we should usecovert military aid to support anti¬communist forces in Angola?Afganistan? Kampuchea? Mozambique?Ethiopia? Others?#16. Do you perceive the buildup ofthe large Soviet Pacific and Artie fleetsas a threat to our security?The Soviet Union have certainlycomducted many interventions around theworld. For example, they have givenmilitary aid to the Ethopian government.This aid is being used to try to stop-quite brutally-the Eritrean fight for independence.And it is certainly true that the SovietUnion has tried to create client states inLatin America by fostering economic andmilitary dependency. However, U.S.sponsored warfare in Latin America is ona scale which dwarfs Soviet involvement.For example, the U.S. spends over amillion dollars per day aiding thegovernment of El Salvador. This aidincludes military hardware, training, andmilitary supervision of army sweepmissions and aerial bombings ofvillages, resulting in the indiscriminateslaughter of civilians. The New YorkTimes estimated that the hardwareincludes approxiamately ninety 500 lb.bombs, seventy-five 750 lb. bombs, 975rockets, and hundreds of thousands ofmachine gun bullets per month. TheArchbishop of San Salvador estimatedthat 1,077 people died from bombingsand groundsweeps during January to June1985. There is also the selectivemurdering of political opponents. Thisis the "democracy" which Reagan,Shultz, and many of the panelists wishto promote.Meanwhile, the U.S. Congress hasrecently approved a hundred milliondollars in aid for the Nicaraguan Contras(in addition to the tens of millions theyhave received from the CIA). TheContras are waging a compaign of terroragainst the people of Nicaragua, underthe direction of the CIA (recall the"Psych-Operation Manual on GuerillaWarfare," a CIA publication which, forexample, instructs that primarey targetsof the Contras should be school teachersand health workers, a policy which theContras have followed). The CIA hasalso mined the harbors of Nicaragua, a(state-sponsored) terrorist act for whichthe U.S. has recently been condemned byboth the International Court in the Hagueand by the United Nations (by a vote of94-3).Merrill Lynch Capital MarketsPublic Finance Groupis currently accepting resumesfromUniversity of Chicago Seniorsfor the two-yearFinancial Analyst ProgramPlease see the Career and PlacementServices Office for details.Note: Information Meeting scheduled for January 8, 1987.Merrill Lynch30—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, December 5,1986 Past American interventions in LatinAmerica against democratically-electedgovernments include complicity in themilitary coups in Guatemala in 1954 andChile in 1973, and the ensuingbloodbaths. (Guatemala continues tohave one of the worst rights records inthe world. Military aid to Guatemala hasbeen resumed under Reagan, although aidin some form has been continuous.)The conclusion is that the "terroristwar being waged against the peoples,governments, and values of the West"had American backing (cf. question #10).It is implicit in question #15, andindeed was implicit in the whole daysdiscussion, that if an organization islabeled as "communist" then that issufficient justification to use everymeans, no matter how barbaric, todestroy it. The Nicaraguan governmentis labeled as communist: thus rape andtorture are apparently accepable means forthe Contras to use. The Reaganadministration and the American mediaconveniently forget to mention that sincethe overthrow of Somoza the standards ofnutrition, health care and education of thepopulation have vastly improved (in1982 the World Health Organizations andUNICEF recognized Nicaragua as havingmade the greatest achievements in healthby a Third World nation), and mostfundamentally, the Somocista reign ofterror has been replaced by a democraticsociety. Therefore one may wonder whythe US supports the Conras-but U.S.policy is not confusing if oneunderstands that the label "communist"means that the Nicaraguan governmenthas placed some restrictions on thewholesale exploitation of the country bymultinational."Do you perceive the buildup of thelarge American Pacific fleet as well asthe plethora of U.S. military bases in thePacific as a threat to Soviet security?"(cf. question #16). Amongst all the panelists (including the Soviet ones)William Colby, a former CIA director,was the only one who even hinted thatU.S. foreign policy could be perceived asaggressive by the Soviet Union. No onementioned that the Soviet Union doesnot have a ring of bases as close to themainland U.S. as the U.S. does to theSoviet Union in the Pacific (as well asEurope). (Just for scale, in 1983 the UShad 600 ships, fifteen aircraft carriers andfour cruise missle-equipped battleshipsstationed in the NW Pacific.)Running through the twelve paneliststhe bias is obvious. Two (JorgeCastaneda and Len Ackland) might beconsidered liberal. The rest of thepanelists included at least three ex-CIAagents (one of whom was more recently amember of the National Security Counciland another of whom is an editor ofReader's Digest), two Soviet defectors, aSoviet emigre, and a professional U.S.army man. William Colby, perhaps themost prominent panelist, directed thenotorious CIA Phoenix terror campaignin which twenty to forty thousandVietnamese were murdered. A sample ofthe views expressed by some of thepanelists follows.Georgie Anne Geyer (on the firstpanel) described the wars in CentralAmerica (and in particular the one inNicaragua) as "the first we can drive to"(apparently forgetting US militaryinterventions in Latin Americathroughout this century). It was notmentioned that the direction of the flowof military traffic is all from the U.S. toNicaragua. Geyer described the Contrasas an "imperfect vehicle," thoughacceptable to use. She also asserted thatLatin America is stuck in a feudal era,while the U.S. is not because we had a"work ethic" from the beginning (nomention of slavery or of the genocide ofContinued on page 33The University of Chicago Department of Music Presents:Mandel Hall (57th & University)Donations: $4 adults. $2 studentsReagan, administration headed for serious downfallBy David S. BroderMaroon Editor-in-Chief 1948Washington-No sadder tale could bespun in this holiday season than theunraveling of yet another presidency.The sickeningly swift downward spiral ofRonald Reagan's government in die lastfour weeks has taken the cheer out of theatmosphere and cast a dark shadow onprospects for the new year.It is almost impossible to rememberthat only four weeks ago, Reagan wasasking voters, as a favor to him, to keepthe Senate in Republican hands. Theysaid no, and the loss of the Republicanmajority on Nov. 4 was blow enough toReagan s hopes. But a larger storm wasbrewing in the story that same day, thefirst report of secret U.S. arms sales toIran.Now that escapade and its secretcorollary, the covert financing of theeffort to overthrow the Sandinistagovernment in Nicaragua, have blown upin the President's face. He has taken tohis favorite medium, television, threelimes to explain how this happened.Each time the unanswered questions havebeen more obvious, the improbabilitiesof the official account more glaring, thereaction more skeptical.When things go this wrong this fast,you have to suppose that somethingtruly corrosive is at work. It is. AsRep. Dick Cheney (R-Wyo.), the ableformer chief of staff to President Ford,remarked:"You have to say it's a prettyfundamental flaw that would allow alieutenant colonel on the White Housestaff to operate in defiance of the law.”What allowed this kind of renegadebehavior to develop in the White House-only 12 years afer the hard-earned lessonof Watergate-was a combination offactors for which Reagan is ultimatelyresponsible if not directly culpable.He is least to blame for the hubris-the arrogance and pride-which infected the White House in the wake of his 49-state re-election victory. Thank thevoters for that.The President got no swelled head,but the same could not be said about hisstaff aides, particularly the newcomerswho had no personal part in thevictorious campaign and no history ofliving through earlier political setbacks.They behaved-toward Congress, thepress and the bureaucracy-as if Reagan'stemporary grant of power from the voterswere a license for them to impose theirwill on the nation. And to be honest,many of us in the press fed their egos bywriting of "the Reagan revolution,"calling the GOP the "new majority" andheaping scorn on the demoralizedDemocrats and the divided Congress.Blame Reagan much more for therapid growth of the cult of secrecy whichinfected the White House atmosphere inthe second term. It was Reagan whoavoided all news conferences during the re-election campaign and made them asscarce as Redskins tickets thereafter. Itwas Reagan who went on the warpathabout "leaks," Reagan who raged about"unauthorized" disclosures of hispolicies, Reagan who pushed-against theprotests of the George Schultzes and JimBakers-for widespread wiretapping ofgovernment officials.How often do Presidents have to learnthe lesson that in this society theneurotic quest for seaecy urdermineseffective government? How can theyforget so quickly that the onlysustainable policy in a nation like ours isone that can be articulated and defended inopen debate? What an irony and what atragedy to see yet another President, whohas warned his associates to keep theirmouths shut, come before the cameraswith the pitiful complaint that thosesame aides did not tell him what theywere up to.Leave it to history to renderjudgement on a trait of Reagan’s which is so basic one can neither blame him norexonerate him: He delegates the hardwork of governing , of managing policy,to others. he always has beencomfortable as the spokesman, the frontman, and he always has avoided thechallenge of Finding out how programswork.The voters have never cared muchabout his disdain for the nitty-gritty ofgovernment. For most of his tenure asgovemc* of the largest state and asPresident, they have had no need to mind,for he has chosen competent assistants.In this second term, his luck-and ours-has run out. The man to whom hedelegated most power, Chief of StaffDonald T. Regan, is an individual whrelove of power far exceeds his ability toexercise it. Regan has been allowed todo the most dangerous thing possible:secure his own primacy by downgradingthe level of ability in the other WhiteHouse and executive office positions. He is a manipulator surrounded bymidgets. And to imagine that one ofthose midgets, ousted National SecurityAdvisor John Poindexter, was pursing anoperation of the scale of the Iran-to-Nicaraguarms-for-pnsoners-for-cash-for-contras fandango without the knowledgeor approval of his master, Don Regan,stretches belief.The President cannot remake himselfinto a hands-on policy manager at thisstage of his life, but he owes the nationand himself a more competent and candidchief of staff than the one he has now.And as the man who instituted the cult ofsecrecy, he needs to signal an end to itscorrosive influence in the most publicway possible-by coming out of theshadows and telling the whole story ofwhat went wrong.© 1986, Washington Post WritersGroupThis holiday season,get the*‘Write Stuff’at the right price.Now you can get the competitiveedge when classes begin in January With aMacintosh™ personal computer, and all theuriie extrasWe call it the Macintosh Write Stuffbundle You’ll call it a great deal1 Becausewhen you buy a Macintosh Write Stuffbundle before Januarv 9. 1987, you’ll receivea bundle of extras—and save $2S0Not only will you get your choice of aMacintosh 512K Enhanced or a MacintoshPlus, you II also get an Image Writer™ IIprinter, the perfect solution for producingnear letter-quality term papers or reports,complete with graphs, charts, andillustrationsPlus, you II get MacLightnmg.the premier spelling checker con¬taining an 80,000 word dictionarywith ootions for thesaurus, medical or legal dictionariesTogether with your favorite Macintosh wordprocessing software, you can transformyour notes into the clearest, most letterperfect papers you ever turned out Andturned in on timeWhat s more, there s a MacintoshSupport Kit hi led with valuable accessoriesand computer care products from 3M *Complete with all the things you need tokeep vour Macintosh running long afteryou ve graduatedlet us show vou how to get throughcollege better, faster and smarter Stop inand see us for more informationThe University of Chicago Micro Distribution Canter1307 E. 60th St. (rear entrance)Chicago, IL 60637(312) 062-6086Mon.-Fri. 10 AM-4 PMvgfcr -SeS ffe* im f ."** VP* * V** » W» < *»I-, -1r^ | L.

ILLINOIS 60603The ChiStudent Newspa Maroonrsity of ChicagofViewpoint, % §§§§§ 1U of C students misrepresentedBy Robert PomperAs a member of the student body, I feel that it is my duty to respond to theNewsweek On Campus (November 1986) article about the University of Chicago. Itgrossly misrepresents what we students are all about The article might as well havecalled us geeks for all I am concerned. It simply eludes me that so many people canhave this same impression of our school when there is simply no evidence for suchremarks.The article, for instance, makes a big deal about our obsession with the RegensteinLibrary. While I might dally in and out of this edifice a few times throughout the day,it does not mean that I am obsessed with it. Maybe I misunderstood the wordobsession since I thought it implied an attachment somebody would be uncomfortablegiving up. I don't know anybody who is casually at the Regenstein a number of timesa day (or obsessed with it as the article would describe it) who would responduncomfortably if the Reg were off limits. We would simply find another place to makethese regular appearances. The gall of that article making us all sound like nerds whohide in some cubicle or even worse the stacks of the Regenstein Library.I would like to know where this article gets its information that we all study 16hours a day? This is a ridiculous assessment if you account for the hours we need tosleep, go to class, lab, to discuss ideas with professors, students and T.A.'s, and to telleverybody we see how much work we have. In fact, this time estimate is so ludicrousthat I refuse to comment on it further having more productive ways to engage myself.I guess what really bugs me is that this article had the audacity to make us looklike study fiends when we all know there is a lot of fun and activity on campus. Didthe article mention the parties? The athletics? No, all it did was focus on the academicside of this school. I am sure that all one has to do is either talk to a friend or look inthe newspaper to find out all the events on a given night. Did it even take notice of thefraternities we have? I have heard great things about how great they are. I bet thatarticle didn't know that we have homecoming here every year. I am planning to go thiswinter.When I do happen to be in the Reg and see some friends, it is not that it is the onlyplace where I see them. Like myself, they all just happened to be there, probably ontheir way to somewhere else. They probably did not think that the only place to meetup with me would be the Reg, which this article describes as the social hotspot oncampus. When we don't accidently meet at the Regenstein every night, we do see eachother at other locations. It isn't as though this school is so intense that I still don’thave time to go out with my friends. Just to mention one instance, the other day Itook one hour from casually looking through this book at the Reg to sit with a friendand catch up on old times. It was a meeting even though the Morry's steak sandwichwas rare.I feel that we have been grossly misrepresented and that we as a body must cometogether to rectify such an injustice. We should first write the author of the article, andmake him publicly rescind his remarks. If he refuses, we'll take him to court. Even ifwc don't win, it should get enough publicity to make people realize that we won't standto be maligned another moment, and that we care enough about our reputation to leavethe Regenstein and to fight for our image. Our next step should be to get the mediaover here and take pictures of students lying in the sun, throwing frisbees, going toparties and yes, drinking. For the grand finale, we could call the Mayor of Chicago andthe President of the University to light an honorary torch and then bum down theRegenstein (when, of course, it is vacant). I can see it now. Our image will no longerbe mired and the Reg will be in flames, every floor being burnt to shreds. -Wait! Uh,did you say fire? The Reg?

Midway Review under fire forbiblical allusions on homosexualityTo the editor,In its continuing series of attacks onhomosexuality the Midway Reviewprinted "Come Again with that Judeo-Christian Ethic?" in its November issue.This article, citing a selection of biblicalpassages as a "thumbnail sketch" of thetraditional Judeo-Christian attitudecondemning homosexuality, is seriouslyflawed in a number of ways which I feelthe University community ought to beaware of."Proof reading" is the commonexegetical error of lifting a Scripturalquotation out of the Bible, without regardfor the passage’s historical context,original meaning, or relations to otherparts of Scripture, in order to support agiven position. This is an invalidpractice because the Bible is replete withinconsistencies, ambiguities, andreferences to specific concretecircumstances in the Ancient NearEastern world-consider, for instance, thetwo separate creation stories in Genesis;the two different cruxifixion narratives inMark and Luke; and the Book ofRevelation's immediate concern with firstcentury AD Rome. To assert, simply onthe basis of a few scattered passages, thatthe Bible teaches one precise doctrine onan issue like homosexuality-ihat "that isthe Judeo-Christian tradition in thismatter" as the article's author claims-isfacile, misleading, and irresponsible.The article contains still deeperproblems. Grave difficulties arisewhenever the "Judeo-Christian tradition"is held up as justification for acomtemporary political position. Farfrom a monlithic entity, this traditionhas iaken a vast array ol different andoften conflicting forms and thus defiesany simplistic appropriation. Indeed,Judeo-Christianity has a long history oftragic misinterpretation and misues,serving to legitimate such abominablepractices as die owning of slaves, thesuppression of intellectual debate, and the violent persecution of heretics.Furthermore, this tradition could justas easily be interpreted to affirm manypositions which I suspect might makemodem conservatives themselvesuncomfortable. For example, efforts todismantel social welfare programs seemto contrast with prophetic exhortations toprovide and care for the oppressed and thepoor (Zee. 7:9-10, Am. 4:1-4); wealthybusiness people apparently ignorebiblical injuetions against usury (Lev.25:36) as well as Jesus' statement that "itis easier for a cornel to go through theeye of a needle than for a rich man toenter the Kingdom of God" (Mk. 10:25);and the harsh, compassionless criticismagainst homosexuals who may be forcedto the painful and degrading margins ofsociety certainly lacte the active andloving spirit Jesus exemplified when hewent out and ministered to the lepers, thetax collectors, and the sinners (Lk. 6:29-32).Judeo-Christianity is a living,evolving tradition which does not consistof an unequivocal "moral core"prescribing pat answers to complicatiedissues. Rather, it draws its vitality fromfresh applications to ever-changinghuman conditions, concerns and needs.Judeo-Christianity reversed its teachingson usury because society needed toexpand economically, and it came todenounce slavery because it realized suchoppression could not be reconciled withGod’s love for all humanity. Now we areseeing Judeo-Christianity slowlyovercome its persecution ofhomosexuals, for despite the fears andmisconceptions of the Midway Reviewana ouiers, homosexuals are alsomembers of God's creation and as suchare worthy of respect, compassion, andlove.Sincerely,Kelly BulkleyThe Divinity SchoolSolutionsContinued from page 30the indigenous population).Constantine Menges (ex-CIA agent,on the first panel) claimed that the U.S.was acting in the "self-defense”of ElSalavador, Honduras, etc., in its waragainst Nicaragua. He failed to note thatthe relevant countries have not invokedany of the myriad of mutual self-defensetreaties, even under U.S. pressure. Againand again Menges and other panelistsmade the assumption that the US has theright to intervene in other nations’affairs, and that the people of LatinAmerica cannot govern themselves. Thisis a fundamentally racist assumption, andhas been central in European and U.S.foreign policy for centuries.John Barron (ex-CIA agent, on thesecond panel) spoke about the "Sovietdrive for global hegemony," ignoring theAmerican drive for global hegemony. Heexpressed the sentiment (also expressedby Geyer) that $e Soviets respect youonly if you hit tfcem hard.Stanislav Levchenko (ex-KGB agent,cm the second panel) said nothing thatwould not be expected from a defector.He managed to provoke a laugh from theaudience by stating that the KGB istrying to spread the rumor that AIDS wasthe result of a genetic engineeringexperiment of the CIA. This may beconsidered amusing but turning to thequestionnaire one reads:#17. Do you think the Soviets are inany way involved in our drug problem?William Taylor (ex-US Armyprofessional, on the third panel) statedthat the U.S. did not have to "loseCuba." The people of Cuba no doubtappreciate the fact that America onceowned Cuba. It should be noted that atypical premise of the "solutions" offeredat the conterencc was that what the U.S.The Cl wants, the U.S. has the "right" toacquire.Arkady Shevchenko (ex-Soviet UNemployee, on the fourth panel) gave along performance, full of emotion andnot much substance. Leslie Gelb (alsoon the fourth panel) at least managed topoint this out. Still, Shevchenko hasBill Kurtis, the moderator, captivated;and the audience saved its loudestapplause during the panels forShevchenko. Shevchenko claimed thatthe Soviet government’s propagandamachine is so effective that 3/4 (asuitably random fraction) of the Sovietpeople believe that America is the evilempire. Meanwhile, Gelb had stated that"the U.S.S.R. is an evil empire,"obviously equally effective Americanpropaganda.The address by George Schultz endedthe day. It war >Ae standardadministration line alfem Star Wars,which has been aired hundreds of timesby the media. U.S. nuclear policy (andStar Wars in particular) is portrayed aspromoting peace and security. However,Star Wars will only mtiuate anotherspiral of the arms race. And yet, theaudience clapped enthusiastically, as ifsomething had been said.The most unsettling aspect of theconference was not the right-wing lineespoused by the panelists (this was to beexpected from looking at the program)but the reaction of the audience. Theaudience applauded, or at the very leastdid not critically evaluate, the sentimentsexpressed by the panelists. Finally, whywas George Schultz, who as Secretary ofState is one of the chief designers ofU.S. foreign policy and therefore of U.S.sponsored terror, given the respect ofspeaking at the University of Chicago?rago Maroon-Friday, December 5,1986--33CLASSIFIEDADVERTISINGClassified advertising in the Chicago Maroon is$3 for the first line and $2 for each additionalline.
