Music professor receives 'genius' grant By Brent Mitchell

Music Dcparimeni Chairman Gary Tomlinson received a $235,000 going- away presenl this week as he prepared for a vacation on the New Jersey shore.

Tomlinson was awarded a five-year fellowship from the John and Catherine MacArthur Foundation this week, along with 31 others including a puppeteer, a filmmaker and a physicist. Individuals are nominated anonymous- ly for the awards, which are often called "genius grants,'" and remain in the dark about the nomination until they have been selected.

Tomlinson, a music historian, said

that he was getting ready for a vacation when he received a call from the foundation informing him that he had received the award.

"This is quite a bombshell and quite a surprise," Tomlinson said. "It allows me to think in new ways. . .What it allows is a tremendous amount of freedom in how I want my work to develop in the coming years."

"Every year you look enviously down the list and fatasize about what it would be like to win the thing yourself." he added. "You never think you would."

The music professor, who has one

year remaining on his term as department chairman, said that the money will make it easier for him to continue his research into the music and society of the Italian renaissance.

Tomlinson said that while he hopes to increase his travels to Italy and take additional leaves, he does not intend to lessen his commitment to the University.

"I would doubt (I would leave the University)," he said. "I certainly want to keep teaching."

1988 total donations set record By Brent Mitchell

Donations to the University during the 1988 fiscal year will top the $100 million mark for the first time despite initial concerns about the amount of charitable giving, officials in the development office said yesterday.

Vice President for Development Rick Nahm said that the final figures will not be available until next week, but added that he could already account for a record amount of contributions. The previous record was $87 million collected last year.

Nahm said that the large jump in donations was not attributable to any one factor.

"There were no gifts that were substantially out of line with recent years," Nahm said. "It was just a combination of very strong fundraising in the alumni area and in the corporate and foundation area."

Assistant Vice President for Development Brodie Remington said that the rise in donations was caused both by renewed interest in the University from alumni and foundations, as well as increased cooperation between business and academic leaders.

"Now those two things have not happened over night, but 1 think that the support the Univer- sity has had is certainly affected by those trends," Remington said. "It also bodes well for the future."

Earlier in the year, drops in donations to charitable organizations were forecast due to changes in the tax laws and October's stock market crash. Nahm said that he was surprised that neither event affected the University's final tally.

Nahm also said that total alumni donations did not drop after the football team failed to win its sixth straight Ivy League title.

"You normally expect there to be a relationship with performance in inter-collegiate athletics and fundraising. . but we did well even though [the football team) did not win," he said.

One of the major changes that Nahm noted was a rise in donations directly to faculty and students. He said that there were more endowed and term chairs for professors and scholarships and

Dessert Heat Faculty approve new review panel

By Sue Maloney

In a Faculty Senate mail ballot announced this week, the faculty overwhelmingly approved a pro- posed advisory committee to hear cases of alleged harassment by faculty members.

The decision on the panel, called the Committee on Conduct, was submitted to a mail ballot at the Senate's April 20th full meeting. The committee will hear student and staff complaints of racial and sexual harassment by faculty members which have not been settled informally or through other boards.

Although the Committee on Conduct was established in principle last year with the implementation of the University's racial and sexual harassment policies, the critics contended that the board will infringe upon professor's academic freedom. Faculty reaction to the results of the mail-in ballot was generally positive.

Of the approximately 1800 standing faculty members, 678 returned the mail-in ballots, with 451 endorsing the committee and 221 faculty members registering their disapproval. The faculty also passed several changes in the rules of the Senate which Faculty Senate Chairman David Balamuth termed "cosmetic."

Balamuth praised the vote on

the Committee on Conduct, saying that the faculty's overwhelming approval demonstrates that they are concerned with the issue of adjudicating harassment cases.

"1 think what this shows is that the majority of the faculty believe that this is an important issue," Balamuth said Monday. "\ committee of fellow faculty members is best suited to judge accusations of misconduct against members of the faculty and such a body will hopefully reduce any incidents of misconduct which do occur on this campus."

Balamuth added that the Facul- ty Senate "will move as ex- peditiously as possible to get that committee in place," saying that the Senate will need an ad hoc procedure to nominate the six tenured faculty members who will serve on the committee, because candidates for Senate committees are normally selected in the spring.

The proposal states that the committee will "establish its own rules and procedures for the fair and expeditious hearing of complaints" and still leaves professors the option to appeal the decision to either their school's committee on academic freedom or the Senate Committeee on Academic Freedom.

Organizers gear up fa October campus violence conference By Brent Mitchell

Organizers of the National Conference to End Campus Violence, which is being spon- sored by the University, have scheduled a mam speaker and a fundraising concert as they continue with preparations for the October event.

Conference Coordinator Charlotte Wilkins said this week that she plans to have 39 workshops and panels exploring ways to prevent and respond to sexual, racial, homophobic and anti-Semitic violence. Up to 500 participants are expected at the three-day conference, which is scheduled for the last week in October.

San Francisco State University Professor Angela Davis has been invited to be the featured speaker, and folk singer Holly Near will give a concert in Irvine Auditorium. Pro- ceeds from the concert will support the conference.

The program will be the first of its kind, and Wilkins said that she is trying to get students, faculty and professionals from across the na- tion to participate.

"We do not want it to be from just Penn," Wilkins said. "We do want to reach out nationally. . The idea is to hear other ideas and other strategies and find out what services other universities are using and find effective."

Wilkins said that she has sent information on the conference to University offices and

outside organizations, soliciting co-sponsors for the event. Present co-sponsors include the Philadelphia Coalition on Domestic Violence.

Women's Center Assistant Director Gloria Gay said that while the Penn Women's Center, the Women's Studies Program and Public

Safety's Victim Support Division are the main sponsors, other groups need to provide money or manpower.

"We saw the need, and we really wanted to do the conference," Gay said. "If people want to support it, they can do it financially because it costs money to put on a conference like

this." .. J While the University has not allocated

special funds for the conference, Gay said that the administration has been supportive of the effort. She said that both President Sheldon Hackney and Provost Michael Aiken are expected to be involved in the conference speaking or introducing guest speakers.

"I would say (reaction) is positive," Gay said. "With (the administration! willing to participate, I think it can be only positive."

Besides the top administrators, other campus figures are organizing workshops. Wilkins said that Associate Education Professor Michelle Fine. Public Safety Director John Logan and Office of Fraternity and Sorority

OPINION TT

Committee Misconduct The faculty has continued the implementation of the University's Harrassment

Policy by endorsing a proposal for a Faculty Senate Committee on Conduct, which would hear harassment charges against faculty members. The Faculty Senate should be congratulated for enacting a formal judicial board as delineated in last year's Harassment Policy, providing the University community with another means to address discrimination.

However, there are flaws in the committee's composition that may hamper its ability to resolve and prevent harassment complaints. By restricting membership on the committee to tenured faculty members, the University is excluding essential members of the community from the judicial process and endorsing inconsis- tent judicial policies for its different consitutencies.

Individuals who would take advantage of this new committee will do so because they feel victimized by a faculty member. A committee composed solely of professors will seem intimidating to these individuals rather than responsive. Students and staff will feel uneasy about utilizing the Committee on Conduct as a judicial resource because they will have no representation on the board.

The committee also represents a double standard on the part of the University. Faculty Senate members have praised the new committee on the grounds that a professor accused of harassment will be tried before a group of his peers. But this policy of trial by peers does not extend to all constituencies. For example, an undergraduate accused of an infringement of University guidelines faces an advisory committee composed of undergraduate and graduate students as well as faculty members.

University-wide participation is essential to a fair and accurate hearing, and this principle is acknowledged in the composition of the Hearing Boards which review undergraduate cases. The Committee on Conduct will make recommenda- tions on complaints brought by students and staff, therefore members of each group should be included on the committee. As the administration seeks to publicize and enforce the Harassment Policy, they should also ensure that the vehicles of this policy are effective.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Unreported News To the Editor:

As I leafed through the edition of The Daily Pennsylvania!} that is sent home to incoming freshmen, many memories came flooding to my mind of the last school year. I remembered all of the emotions in the Farrakhan visit and the ZBT incident among many others. 1 also remember a full page spread in The DP about a relatively new arts group on campus named the Penn Black Arts League and its first play, "A Raisin in the Sun." I recalled the significance of that play — it being the first time in Penn's history that a play with a predominately black cast was performed.

And I recalled the March 21 issue of The DP and an article entitled "Groups attemp-

ting to obtain King statue," which told of an unprecedented cross campus drive spon- sored by the PBAL.

As I looked at your freshman issue's campus life section, I realized that my memory must be better than the collective memories of all those involved in putting the paper together. For I saw no mention of the PBAL in the Arts on Campus section, nor anywhere else. My question for you is, are you just ill-informed about minority events on campus that are non- controversial? If so, 1 suggest you make it your business to be better informed! Or a better question is, do you just not care to report non-controversial minority events to incoming freshmen and their families?

Government Goals By Keith Wasserstrom

Legitimacy is a major obstacle that all new governments must face. They must prove to other governments and to their constituents that they are a capable body. This hurdle is especially high with a student government, which must prove to the administration that it can act as the powerful voice of the students and is worthy of con- sideration. More importantly, it must demonstrate to students that they are being well-represented.

Another obstacle for any representative body is the media. While the government is attempting to perform its duties, the press is also trying to do its own job. But while the government rarely tries or thinks that it can do the job of the press, the latter con- sistently plays the role of government. For some inexplicable reason, the press fre-

ticipate a need to address alcohol consump- tion at Penn. Through our 'Meet the UA' forums, the 'UA on the Walk' campaign, and our open meetings, we hope to speak wiih the students rather than speaking for them. We hope to be able to present the administration with a University Alcohol Policy that a majority of students favor.

Too many students (and reporters) sit on the sidelines and criticize. The new UA will actively seek student opinion; we will be out on Locust Walk talking to the students and encouraging them to come to meetings and forums to express their points of view. More students will be represented fairly and will better understand why our decisions often turn out the way they do.

Duchess and 1 are also planning alter- natives for Spring Fling. Because of budgetary and security problems with last year's event, the future of Fling will be of consequence to every student. We have

quently disagrees with government. (This they might agree with). This conflict may be due in part to the need for exciting news. Indeed, a critique on the miscues of an administration makes much more interesting reading than a story entitled "The UA Makes No Bad Decisions Today." And, if readers are aware of this behavior then nobody will be mislead.

Nothing is wrong with this inherently aggressive quality of journalism; the biggest side effect of criticism from the media is often no more than a bruised ego or two. The press serves a very important role on this campus; they keep us informed of what is going on, and they keep those in power in check. It often makes useful suggestions, offering alternative solutions to a pending problem.

Recently, the press was kind enough to inform me that the position of the new Undergraduate Assembly had been misconstrued. Unlike The Summer Penn- sylvania's July 7, 1988 editorial suggests, the UA does not intend to be passive, or reactionary. In fact. Vice Chair Duchess Harris and I stayed in Philadelphia this summer to prepare for the issues that art- likely to arise during our term. We are planning strategies to face possible campus con- flicts, and prevent them from escalating in- to uncontrollable confrontations.

For instance, due to alcohol-related deaths and injuries which have been recently reported at other campuses, we an-

good ideas, but we do not pretend to have all the answers, and we will be seeking interested students to divise our Spring Bash.

In addition, in an effort to minimize last year's racial tensions, we are developing programs this summer to make new students more sympathetic to the needs and differences of a diverse community.

As far as our supporting the administration: we hope to work with University officials only in an effort to help the students. For example, our athletic committee will be passing out flyers to attract larger crowds at soccer, field hockey, lacrosse, hockey and volleyball games. By helping the athletic department in this manner, we are ultimately helping the students. With greater attendance, we could recruit more quality players; when the teams get better, more fans will come out to see them win. This small input provided by the UA can be the catalyst for events that ultimately help the players, the fans, as well as the school.

The UA is unquestionably committed to helping students. We appreciate and welcome the concern expressed by the The Summei Pennsylvania!}, and we realize it is also trying to help students. We only hope that this syncrgism works to the benefit, instead of the detriment, of the students it is supposed to help.

Downed Airliners and the Role of the Media j

By Edward Herman

The most striking difference between the Soviet shooting down of the Korean airliner on flight KAL 007 in 1983 and the recent U.S. destruction of Iranian airliner 655 is not in the immediate events of the attacks but in their aftermath. In the Soviet case, the United States was able to organize a massive propaganda campaign of condemnation and vilification of an act repeatedly described as despicable, criminal, and cold-blooded murder. A multinational boycott has been mounted or will take place. This differential treatment reflects differential power: the western propaganda apparatus can take a tragic event in which the enemy is a potential

villain and capitalize on it. Neither the

Soviet Union nor Iran

respond in kind

when the United States or one of its clients or friends is in an analagous position of potential villainy. And the western media regularly find that a shooting down of a civilian plan by "our side" was a "regrettable error," or possibly even provoked by the enemy, never a descent into "barbarism" and "cold- blooded murder" (among the many phrases applied to the Soviet Union in reference to 007).

The U.S. propaganda campaign in the 007 case was even built on disinformation, as the Reagan administration told the world that the Soviets had callously, knowingly, and without warning shot down a civilian aircraft, when U.S. officials knew that this was untrue.

The taped conversations of the Soviet pilot and ground control made it clear that the pilot thought he was dealing with a military reconnaissance plan and that he had warned the plane. This information, immediately available to the administration, was suppressed in order to score political points. Reagan, Shultz, Kirkpatrick and other officials issued a string of defamatory statements based on this disinformation, with great passion and moral indignation. The fact that these were deliberate lies was disclosed in many places, but received negligible publicity in the mass media until an internal intelligence analysis of the shootdown was released by Congressman Lee Hamilton in January 1988. At this point The New York Times finally noted in an editorial entitled "The Lie That Wasn't Shot Down" (January 18, 1988), that "the administration in effect, acknowledges, grudgingly, that it misled the American people and the world."

The crux of the differential treatment, however, is the global reach of the western media and their subordination to the interests of the western establishment. It was this subordination that allowed disinformation to be used so successfully against the Soviets and which always exon- erates our own crimes from comparable condemnation.

In the 007 case, the western media hopped on the propaganda bandwagon with uncritical zeal,

despite fact that the administration's record of producing disinforma-

tion was already extensive. The media

worked like a well-oiled propaganda machine, lining up

in support of the Big Lie in patriotic fashion, refusing to ask questions or investi-

gate, and failing to make honest amends when the truth was revealed. In its editorial of January 18 quoted above, for example, The Times doesn't admit its own failings, it blames the administration. In implicit defense of its own incredible invective and long adherence to and dissemination of the belatedly acknowledged lie, The Times says "Moscow deserved the universal obloquy it incurred." But if this is so, why shouldn't The Times heap obloquy on the Reagan administration for shooting down the Iranian civilian airliner, barely eight minutes off the ground on a scheduled flight, instead of treating this merely as a regrettable error?

The answer is that The New York Times regularly manipulates news and indignation according to a state- based double standard. It sometimes even admits this. The most spectacular comparison in airliner shootdowns which illustrates the point is between KAL 007 and the

Israeli shooting down of a civilian Libyan airliner in February 1973, in which 108 persons were killed. In this case, the Israelis admittedly knew they were shooting down a civilian plane (whereas in the 007 case the Reagan administration had to manufacture a lie on this point to demonstrate the barbarity of the Soviets). But The Times and the western media in general didn't even bother to mention the fact of a knowing attack on a civilian airliner, and the Israelis were never called deliberate and cold-blooded murderers. Only when an enemy state knowingly shoots down a civilian airliner does the western press wax indignant and indulge in name-calling. The New York Times explained the differential treatment in a classic March 1, 1973 editorial on the Israeli shootdown: "No useful purpose is served by an acrimonious debate over the assignment of blame for the down- ing of ci vi

lian airliner in the Sinai pe- ninsula last week."

In other words, the U.S. paper of record admits that its criteria of selection of news and the basis of its indignation is utility ("useful purpose"), not any "objec- tive" standard of newsworthiness or considerations of elementary humanity. Truth is useful truth, and even an outright lie may be allowed to take its effect in a case where this is serviceable to the interests of the state — as in the 007 case. Edward Herman is a professor of finance in the Wharton School.

How Much Clout Should Alumni Carry? By Lolita Jackson

While visiting Yale University on the Fourth of July, I noticed shanties built in the center of campus. There were two policemen, posted just outside of them, 'round the clock. 1 went up to get a closer look, and saw a picture of the original shanties whilst they were burning. I asked my friend to explain what exactly had taken place and this was his story.

• Alumni day at Yale always oc-

curs on the first weekend in June. It was rather warm this year, and the overwhelming spirit of the festivities was enhanced by an

They all said how the shanties were a cancer to the Yale campus and that the administration shouldn't have allowed their construction in the first place, etc. A friend of mine, the president of the BSAY, said that they would not let the administration stop their efforts to protest the situation in South Africa. He said that the administration did not object to their protest until the fire, and that the shanties peacefully ex- isted for three years, untouched. Now, Yale President Benno Schmidt and his underlings seem to be buckling under to alumni pressures.

I told my friend that this situation would never happen at Penn.

The students of today will be the alumni of tomorrow, and people

don't forget when they are slighted.

abundance of alcohol. Amidst the celebration, one lively individual decided to get bold and do something totally reprehensible.

The Black Student Alliance at Yale (BSAY) built shanties on campus in protest of South African apartheid in the fall of 1985. The aforementioned individual, a doctor from West Palm Beach (Yale '63), decided to burn them all down. Not only did(

he burn them down, but he sat there and watched them burn to the ground. He was arrested on the spot and held on $50,000 bail.

He got out only a few hours later. He did not appear on the news, but lots of his friends did.

No matter how bad things can be here, people at least try to talk things out, and students aren't easily swayed or pacified. After all, neither the ZBT decision nor Farrakhan's appearance were changed by alumni threats, which were not inconsequential in number. I was thoroughly con- vinced that our administration was more responsible than Yale's.

Then I thought about it. More alumni dollars are being pumped into Wharton than ever before, and Penn spends tens of thousands just to make the school look 'presentable' on alumni day. That is well understood. Alumni dollars form a huge proportion of

the money raised by the Universi- ty. Bui, current students should not be overlooked in the process.

Many people have said that they arc not going to give one dime to Penn after they graduate, because they feel the administration doesn't adequately consider student concerns and allows itself to be bullied by Wharton and greed. Prime example: The Shops at Penn. The shops are nice and everything, but they are overpric- ed, and the same chain stores can be found about fifteen blocks downtown. What we've needed for a long time is a new student union that is more centrally located and with more resources than current facilities.

Another student issue con- sistently ignored by administrators is the expansion of dining service options. A seven- day plan was to be offered this coming fall, but no longer. I talked to many disappointed students, many of whom find it very hard to pay ten to twenty dollars each weekend for food, and would like the option of eating at a dining hall instead. Perhaps one dining hall like 1920 Commons or Stouf- fer could have been kept open. Something could have been worked out, but the University didn't even bother to try.

The administration has also allowed Wharton to further and further separate itself from all other facets of the University. During alumni weekend in 1987, the Wharton School removed all copies of The DP from the lobby of Steinberg-Dietrich Hall. They were afraid that alumni dollars would not flow as freely because of the "scandalous" stories in that particular issue. Not only did

Wharton not denounce their own actions, but they had the nerve to criticize the newspaper's "inap- propriate reporting" (DP, 5/15/87).

Another action that evokes anger in many non-Wharton students is Wharton Dean Russell Palmer's speech at graduation. He called Wharton students the nreeminent students at the University, further alienating business students from the rest of the undergraduate population. Maybe Russell Palmer was a good

framework, the administration has done what it feels is monetari- ly sound for the University, while neglecting the best interests of the students.

The students of today will be the alumni of tomorrow, and people don't forget when they are slighted. Yes, institutions of higher learning have a responsibility to alumni, but their first responsibility should always be to the students who are currently attending.

CEO at Touche Ross, but Whar- ton is a college, not a business. The four undergraduate schools shouldn't be competing with each other; together we form one university. That Dean Palmer doesn't realize this is proven by his continuing arrogance.

I could go on with other ex- amples, but I think I have made my point. Penn has recently been moving up within the Ivy League hierarchy, but we have a long way to go. We are seen, unsurprising- ly, as a pre-professional paradise. And within that financial

The administration must listen to students a bit more carefully. Granted, many students are apathetic, but enough are interested in what's going on to be given more of a say than we currently have. Of course today's alumni and faculty should be heard, but if we don't like what is happening now, the University will regret it tomorrow.

Figlio plans to stay at U. despite tenure denial By Sue Maloney

Associate Criminology Pro- fessor Robert Figlio, the center of a tenure dispute last semester, plans to teach and conduct research at the University in the fall as an adjunct professor, according to members of the criminology program.

Criminology Director Marvin Wolfgang said that although the paperwork on the appointment has not been finalized, the program plans to have Figlio teach one class each semester and pursue research within the Univer- sity's Sellin Center for Studies in Criminology and Criminal Law.

Figlio was denied tenure last year after the Wharton School Personnel Committee rejected his bid. If faculty members receive tenure, they are virtually guaranteed lifetime employment at the University. If denied, they are usually forced to leave at the end of their seventh year here.

Figlio's tenure denial led to charges from criminology graduate students that the Whar- ton School was planning to phase out the program, and the students organized a letter-writing campaign to protest the decision. Wolfgang is currently the only full-time professor in the

department. Wharton officials and the two

criminology professors continued this week to reject accusations that the school'intends to drop the program. However, Wolfgang said that he would like the program to have at least two more full-time professors, and a graduate student charged that the department is "severely underfunded."

Wolfgang said last week that a search for a full-time professor to replace Figlio is currently taking place, adding that Figlio's case was not resubmitted to the Per- sonnel Committee in an attempt

to reverse the decision because "we were told that resubmission would not alter the situation."

He said although the search in- dicates that the Wharton School is willing to sustain the program, his request for another professor has not been met.

Figlio, who was nominated as a finalist for an award from the In- ternational Society of Criminology shortly after his tenure bid was rejected, said that he plans to teach a class in corporate crime in the fall. He added that he did not believe it was Wharton's policy to eliminate the criminology program, given the program's concordance with other Wharton departments.

"I'm going to do my best as an adjunct professor," Figlio said

this week. "From my point of view, there appears to be a good working relationship between the goals of the Criminology Program and the Legal Studies Depart- ment. I think that they comple- ment each other."

Both Wolfgang and criminology PhD candidate Robyn Mace acknowledged the need for greater funding for the program. Wolfgang noted that the program was receiving somewhat increased funding, but the increase was not as much as he had requested.

"I think for the number of students that we teach the department is severely underfunded," Mace said this week. "I can't understand why since [corporate

Search for Greek assistant r„ Incoming Fraternity and Sorority Advisory Board members selected By Sue Maloney

The search for an assistant director for the Office of Fraterni- ty and Sorority Affairs which began earlier this month is a move designed to increase programming in the Greek system, according to the OFSA director.

Also, the office announced the membership for next year's

could benefit from increased at- tention and advising from OFSA, adding that a greater focus on sororities would have made last year's expansion of the system much easier.

"There's going to be a lot of housecleaning to do once we actually get someone," Benton said.

According Acting Vice Provost for University Life Kim Morrison, the assistant director will concen- trate on programs centered around alcohol use and abuse, leadership, and sexual and racial harassment policies.

Arnold, who hopes to complete his search during the fall semester, said that he would like the candidates to visit campus and meet with a variety of students and members of the University community.

Benton, along with the presidents of the Interfraternity Council and the Black Inter- Greek Council, chose two of the three student members of next year's FSAB. The third student representative, appointed by the Nominations and Elections Com- mittee, is not necessarily a member of the Greek system.

VOTE From page 1

The Committee on Conduct would serve as an advisory board to Provost Michael Aiken, who described the results of the vote Tuesday as "a very positive step."

"I think the availability of this Committee on Conduct will give a mechanism for addressing depar- tures from appropriate conduct in the areas of racial and sexual harassment," Aiken said.

However, opponents of the plan claimed that the board could be used to threaten academic freedom and limit the nature of topics discussed in the classroom. Physics Professor Michael Cohen, who has been outspoken in his

criticisms of the committee and of the harassment policy, said this week that the definition of harassment in the harassment policies is very broad and people may try to use the procedure to limit the freedom of speech of faculty memebers.

"If people are harassed, they ought to have access to procedures to get redresss and get the harassment terminated," Cohen added. "In my opinion, they've always had that access. If this makes people feel better and people want to use it, fine."

He continued that the conduct committee would probably be "no worse" than pursuing complaints through ad hoc panels established by the deans of individual schools, but said that he

was skeptical that the committee would be effective.

"My best guess is that, like many other institutions and codes that have been developed in the past, there's been a lot of con- ntroversy in setting up procedures and defining fences, and then the apparatus is never used," Cohen said.

Proponents of the Committee on Conduct maintain that an elected faculty committee can ef- fectively deal with "gray areas" in the definition of harassment while continuing to protect academic freedom.

Past Faculty Senate Chairman Gerard Adams said Monday that he was "gratified, in that we worked very hard on this." He also praised the return of nearly 700 ballots out of the total standing facuty of 1800. Considering that the ballot was sent out at a time when many professors were leaving for the summer, he noted, the turnout was relatively high.

"It is a very sensible proposal," Adams said. "It's great to see that the faculty is realistic and sensible about these things."

"We are going to need the committee and we're going to put it in place in the fall and 1 think it will play a very important role," Adams added.

Several changes in the Rules of the Faculty Senate were effected by the mail ballot as well. The faculty approved the recognition of the past chairman as an officer of the Senate, detailed a procedure for filling that position if a past chairmman is unable to serve, and required that the chairman-elect be a full professor.

Veternary School Biochemistry Professor Adelaide Delluva, who served on the harassment policy committee several years ago, said Tuesday that while she is pleased with the result of the mail-in ballot, she hopes that the conduct committee evolves to fit the need.

"1 should hope that it's a living organism. . .because we cannot foresee all of the thiings that will happen," Delluva said. "(The Committee on Conduct] has got to develop along with the campus community."

Correction An article on Afro-American Studies Director Jacqueline Wade in last week's edition mistdentified her replacement on the Black Ad- ministration, Faculty and Staff organization. She will be replaced by School of Social Work Assistant Dean Orneice Dorsey Lesley. The Summer Pennsylvanian regrets the error.

Space, the final frontier...

'

By Bret Parker Imagine, if you will, a dimen-

sion with enough comic books to fill even a child's dream, with thirty-year-old men dressed as Hulk Hogan and Mr. Spock. Jump out of traditional space constraints to a land where students hope to get rich by telling Polaroid snapshots of people in front of a British phonebooth doubling as a time machine. Pic- ture them as just a handful among thousands, all in one room large enough to accomodate the group and all with imaginations that reach for the stars and drift even farther into flights of fantasy.

The "Creations Convention," often referred to as a "Star Trek Convention" by those unversed in the proper vernacular, is a two- day tribute to comic books and science-fiction television shows such as Star Trek, Dr. Who and Makes 7. The gathering is an opportunity for enthusiasts to buy and trade memorabilia, discuss their common interests, and sometimes to meet a few celebrities.

The conventions are run by a Long Island company titled, aptly enough. Creation. Private ven- dors and fan clubs rent tables to sell their comic books, autograph- ed photos and other science fiction memorabilia. Creation holds these conventions all across the country, and is running three other shows the same weekend as the Philadelphia extravaganza.

And just like the Democratic National Convention, the Crea- tions Convention sets the stage for conflict or reconciliation between opposing camps. The highlight of the Philadelphia gala is an appearance by Michael Dorn, who plays Lieutantant Worf in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Ten- sion between fans of the old show and proponents of its offspring is surprisingly hard to find, except for a few malcontents. One man voices his opinion on a tee-shirt —

Trek Classic. But convention worker Helen

Woolverton calls the shirt "tacky." "It doesn't make Michael Dorn

feel very at home," she chastises. "It's like getting a new person in a job and telling him that the old person was so much better."

Albert Alecknavage brings a different sort of complaint to the convention room of the Franklin Plaza Hotel as one of 2000 people attending the Creations Convention. Albert, spoiling a button that pro- claims "Trekker not a Trekkie." sayi that the word 'Trekkie' has been misused.

"A Trekkie is to Star Trek as .i teeny-bopper is to r»xk and roll." he says. "A Trekkie has a cursors acquaintance with the material."'

A Trekker has "a more comprehensive knowledge." Albert continues, adding that he "un- doubtedly" classifies himself .is .i Trekker

"I don't know why. but I'm damn glad I wound up like that." he savs

Science fiction and Slur Trek en thusi.ists arc sometimes ridiculed lor their almost obsessive interest in fantasy But Trekker Albert con tends that the hobby is a compensa

tion for alienation at an early age and proudly includes himself among the ranks of the afflicted. He says that an avid appreciation of science fiction and comics is a means of ex- pression for many people.

Albert has attended eight conventions in the past four years, but he notes that the cost of the events limit the number of conventions that the fan can visit. A day at the Creation Convention will set the average Trekker or Trekkie back $15.

"It makes paupers out of millionaires quicker than watermelon can turn into seeds." he says.

The high price of the two—day affair is just one of several burdens that 16—year—old Maria Bush faces. This is her first convention.

"I was always too young or it was the money or the time." she says.

But while the event may be a financial drain for its visitors, this world of fantasy, to some, can be quite a godsend in an extremely practical way.

John and Matt Belskis earn their living selling comic books at conventions in New York. New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In addition to their sales at these science fiction fetes, they sell through mail orde and advertise in the Comic Buyers Guide.

The Belskis brothers, who describe the weekly publication as "the Wall Street Journal of comics." have attended over 200 conventions and describe the work as "very profitable and enjoyable."

Bruce Rosen, a Temple Universi ty senior and aspiring law school student, also works the convention. He and a friend offer posed photos with a homemade Tardis. a time- travel machine which hails from the British science fiction show Dr Who. The show, which has been in production for 21 years, has a following so devoted that it ignores the obstacle of the Atlantic Ocean.

The Tardis appears to be a British telephone booth, but to fans of Dr. Who it apparently has more mean- ing. Bruce is proud of his creation which he claims is identical to the one on the television show.

"I constructed it to Metropolitan Public Call Box standards." Bruce says proudly. "|Dr. Who. doesn't loan theirs out often - ours is the only one in the country. Channel 23 wanted to rent it for a promotion."

Another money-maker at the show is the Tardis pendant, a replica of the key which unlocks the time machine, has sold out at the convention. Cathy Boudreau. working at a table, explains to 16-year-old Maria that the company licensed to sell the sought-after item has gone out of business. Maria frowns and moves on to another vendor, but not before she and Cathy about discuss joining a fan club.

According to Cathy, who has hawked her goods at over 80 con ventions and works at an accounting firm when she is not pursuing her hobby, many of the tan clubs hang on bv "the skin ol their teeth."

Creations founder Adam Malm profits the most from the shows run bv his company Adam gives tidbits ol information about various Si.n Trek stars, noting that Nichelle Nichols, ot l.t. Dhuru tame is now a musician on tour and will sixui he working on an opera in V icnna

Dead Pool sinks compared to other Harry films By Bret Parker

The Dead Pool could have been a really good movie.

It wasn't. The fifth installment in the Dir-

ty Harry series had some of the in-

gredients that usually propel films by the king of tough cops to the front of the box office, but the current release couldn't put together a tasty meal.

The Dead Pool had a sick deranged killer.

A film crew producing a hard—rock horror film starts a game to see who can predict a list of famous people who will die first and Harry finds himself on the list after putting a crime lord behind bars. Whoever is successful at predicting "the dead pool" wins. Unfortunately, a mad killer uses one of the lists as a directory for targets.

The Dead Pool had a woman starring opposite Dirty Harry.

Patricia Clarkson is the attrac- tive and aggressive television reporter who wants to put Harry even farther into the spotlight.

The Dead Pool had a partner for Harry.

Evan Quan is Quan — a Chinese cop who, as Harry's partner, wants to avoid his own possible demise.

and thugs for Dirty Harry. In addition to his usual Smith

and Wesson, Harry creatively uses a gigantic harpoon against one of his foes. He is faced not only with the mad killer, but also with members of the mob who seek revenge for the conviction of their boss.

The main problem is that the center of Dirty Harry movies is, understandably, Harry. But in The Dead Pool, Eastwood seems almost stale. Much of the fault

lies with the lack of funny one- liners and witty-but-tough retorts in Steve Sharon's screenplay, but Eastwood relies too heavily on his reputation as a tough cop and he fails to develop the character in this film. The audience is suppos-

Midnight Run turns into a pumpkin De Niro and Grodin fall short as a team By David Butterworth

Hollywood has always been quick to cash in on popular movie trends. One recurrent theme is the "love—hate relationship", in which two mismatched per-

tonalities collide, often with comic results.

The producers of Midnight Run appear to have felt that Robert De Niro's grittincss, coupled with the sensitivity of Charles Grodin. would make for a winning combination. Unfortunately, the film misfires by not having enough faith in its own convictions. Rather than developing the ob- \ ioui camaraderie between its two leads, it settles instead for high speed action sequences and low brow theatrics

De Niro plays Jack Walsh, a disillusioned Chicago cop turned bounty hunter. Bail bondsman Eddie Moscone assigns him to find and deliver accountant Jonathan Mardukas, played In Grodin, to Los Angeles. If the K COUntant, worth a million dollars to Moscone, is returned before the 72—hour deadline expires, Walsh will earn $100,000.

Mardukas. also known as "The Duke", has embezzled $15 million from crime boss Jimmy Serrano, a role played by television's Den- nis Farina (Crime Story). The BC COUntant's knowledge of Ser-

rano's illegal activities makes him a hot property for the FBI, who hope to get their hands on Mar- dukas before the mob does. And as if this isn't enough, Eddie con- tracts out another bounty hunter, Marvin Dorfler, played by John Ashton, to complete the job, if and when Walsh fails. Walsh develops an early animosity towards federal agent Alon/o Mosley, played with a smoldering intensity by Yaphet Kotto.

This assorted bunch of characters pursue the accountant and his captor as they try to escape on a train, a bus, and finally several cars and trucks. In fact,

Most of the laughs in this film are telegraphed way ahead of time. The Jokes are either predictable or simply unfunny.

for all the different modes of transportation, this film could easily have been called "Trains, Planes and Automobiles, Too." All are led on a merry chase across country as Walsh attempts to deliver the "merchandise" on time and collect his one hundred grand.

As one would expect from the director of Beverly Hill's ('op, the obligatory car chase is thrown in for good measure, with a multitude of police cars racing

across the Arizona desert almost as an afterthought. The chase ends almost as quickly as it began.

By the film's conclusion the audience is expected to believe that Walsh and Mardukas have developed such mutual respect along the way that Walsh's in- tegrity has been renewed, causing him to renege on his contract. It just doesn't hold water.

It is good to see De Niro in a meatier role for a change, as op- posed to his larger-than-life walk- ons (The Devil in Alan Parker's Angel Heart and, more recently, as Al Capone in The Un- touchables). His cheeky schoolboy grin certainly contributes to some of the film's lighter moments.

Grodin also makes the most of his endearing qualities and at times, the chemistry between the two blossoms. This pairing is especially effective in the scenes m which Grodin acts as De Niro's conscience, endlessly harassing him about his eating and smoking habits and asking him personal questions about his private lite. He even talks him into visiting his ex—wife and daughter after nine years ol separation.

And the film does have its amusing moments. In one scene, Pantoliano tells his right hand man that Walsh is bringing in "The Duke" — thereby saving his livelihood — to which the aide responds "This calls for a celebration.... I'll get the donuts!"

But the viewer must wade through a quagmire of hackneyed and implausible plotting in order to reach those moments, and it's like pulling teeth. Most of the laughs in this film are telegraphed

ed to laugh when this insensitive guy uses words like "swell" and "marvelous", but Eastwood gives us little of the toughness. While he is in excellent shape for his age, Eastwood is all gun. His rough nature can be found only in the memory of the other four Dirty Harry films.

The usual ingredients are present here, but scantily utilized. The relationship between Harry and a television reporter is hardly

developed. Harry's partner is silent and doesn't play up the dangers of working with "a cop who has an attitude." The thugs which Harry encounters, with the exception of one hulking beast in jail, seem almost harmless and arc used for target practice.

This film has only one saving grace — a five-minute chase scene with a miniature radio-controlled car that mocks the generic car- chase motif. As the two full-scale cars fly off hills and screech through the San Francisco neighborhoods, the smaller toy participates in the excitement. Director Buddy Van Horn humorously parallels the large scale chase by showing the smaller car also jumping off the San Fran- cisco hills.

Patricia Clarkson portrays the ambitious television reporter with a good deal of energy, but her role, like most of the film, never gets anywhere.

The Dead Pool is not a terrible movie. It has its share of entertainment value and has a few wor- thwhile moments as far as action films go. But Dirty Harry has been the standard for the tough cop genre, and Eastwood used to be the master.

The film doesn't pretend to to be a masterpiece bound for Academy Award winning fame, and it is probably worth the time for some viewers, but a Dirty Harry film should be a leader and an innovator. The Dead Pool instead chose to stay in the stagnant waters of its past.

Robert De Niro and Charles Grodin realize that they are being forced to go on a Midnight Run, an activity even more terrifying than a food run.

way ahead of time. The jokes are either predictable or simply unfunny.

At one point Walsh tells Mar- dukas that if he doesn't cooperate, he will soon be suffer- ing from "fistophobia." Such is the level of humor in this movie.

De Niro and Grodin's subtlety is wasted in Midnight Run. The film would have better suited the

comedic talents of Eddie Murphy, and in fact, bears more than a passing resemblance to 48 Hours, yet it lacks that film's wit and style.

Before boarding the plane for Los Angeles, Walsh tells Mar- dukas that if he doesn't keep quiet, "this will be the worst trip of your life." The journey proves to be no pleasure cruise for the audience, either.

Political drama attacks apartheid under the spotlights By Pamela Busch

In 1966, South African playwrile Anthol Fugard was shocked by a picture he saw in a daily newspaper of a frightened couple lying naked in bed. The woman was white, the man was colored. What he found disturb- ing was not the picture itself, but

the story behind it.

The South African police stormed in on the two, took repeated photographs and then charged them with breaking the Immorality Act, which forbids sexual relations between races. Fugard's disbelief that the state- could intrude on and destroy the most intimate moments between

human beings is shown in Statements After An Arrest Under The Immorality Act.

The play casts five players, only three of whom have speaking parts. The two leads, Michael Rogers, who plays Erol Philander, and Kate Skinner, who plays Freida Joubert, are uncloth- ed throughout most of the show

Statements After An Arrest Under The Immorality Act contains nudity and discusses adult themes. This gripping insight into apartheid can teach a lot, but please kids, don't try this at home unless accompanied by an adult.

The play opens with Erol and Freida lying on the floor of Freida's house after they have made love. They discuss their relationship and the impossiblity of their love not only because of its illegality, but also because Erol is married and has a child. They are quite conscious of their racial difference and Erol reminds Freida that even though he is married to another woman, she is married to her white skin. The guilt and

hardship they suffer is broken up by gentle humor.

Rogers and Skinner have .1 remarkable chemistry which becomes more evident as the play progresses. Rogers developed his character's confused tenderness and frustration quite well, and throughout much of the play Erol evokes the most sympathy. Skin- ner was also very good although her character was not as intense, perhaps deliberately.

The third speaking part is that of Sergeant J. du Preez, played by Douglas Wing. He tells the audience in a monologue how the authorities learned of Philander and Joubert's affair. Though his role is small, it is important, for he symbolizes the cold, systematic

nature of apartheid. Wing's card- board style executes this point perfectly.

After du Preez finishes speaking, the story continues in Joubert's house. As the couple reconciles their differences, a light shines through the window. Twentv seconds seem like (brevet as countless pictures are taken and the two scrounge around to put on their clothes

September headed for a fall during its first trip to Philadelphia By Jonathan Gross and Ann Little

Woody Allen once said something to the effect that he would consider his films a success if they made one more person miserable. In his latest release September, he is doubly successful.

September Directed by Woody Allen

• •

Originally released last fall to unenthusiastic reviews from his usually pandering New York critics, September hasn't made it to Philadelphia until now. Writ- ten and directed by Allen, it is less a movie than a brooding, leaden play which has unfortunately been preserved forever on film.

The camera never leaves a char- ming Vermont country home filled with quaint New England curios, antique quilts and the ubi- quitous bottles of booze. The film is bathed in shades of sepia, underscoring the despairing feeling of approaching autumn.

Allen's reliable acting ensemble returns and performs admirably despite the stilted script. Mia Far- row plays Lane, the agonized and suicidal daughter of self-obsessed ex-showgirl Diane Frazier, played by Elaine Stritch. Theirs is a resentful relationship, stemming from Fane's alleged shooting of her mother's abusive mobster boyfriend when she was fourteen (a premise based on the Lana Turner-Johnny Stompanato affair).

Dianne Wiest plays Steffi, Lane's best friend and a Philadelphia wife and mother on summer sabbatical from her familial responsibilities. Both she and Lane spend the majority of the movie in frumpy outfits reminiscent of hospital garb, leav ing little doubt as to their

unhealthy emotional states. These characters aren't just

hurt; they ooze all over the screen, drinking heavily and remorseful- ly. As Lane attempts recovery, she is surrounded by family and friends in varying stages of treachery and torment. Whiny Sam Waterston wallows in self- pity in the role of Peter, the block- ed writer and tenant of Lane's guest cottage. Lane falls in love with him after a brief, desperate affair, but he callously pursues the confused and flirtatious Stef- fi. Denholm Elliot appears as Lane's neighbor, Howard, a prep school French instructor who perplexingly falls for her and becomes the hapless victim of the aforementioned love triangle.

September is relentless in its emotional devastation, creating an exhausting pitch that is almost comically implausible. No person and no place in the beige house is safe from melodramatic episodes; characters sweep from room to room in an endless cycle of pain- ful, vicious confrontation. Typical of Allen's recent films, the dialogue is deliberate and overly crafted, this time to an astonishing degree. These characters never stammer or pause when they deliver such dark, theatrical lines as, "I always thought there was a fatal element of hunger in your last relationship."

As the characters wander about in a Chekovian fog, the atmosphere is briefly lifted by the visit of two middle-aged New Yorkers who are interested in buy- ing the house. As always, Allen's comic insight into contemporary New York attitudes and fashions is biting and concise.

Allen's familiar death-rattle musings return in joyless full force. His perception of a random and morally-neutral world continues to fascinate and depress him. Jack Warden, as Diane's physicist husband Lloyd, ar- ticulates the film's central theme in an exceedingly pretentious ex- change with Peter. Peter queries.

"Is there anything more terrifying than the destruction of the universe?", to which Lloyd replies (incredulously straight- faced), "Yes, the knowledge that it doesn't matter."

A more appropriate question is, "Is there anything more terrifying than enduring forty-five more minutes of dialogue like this?"

A raging storm that serves as a convenient backdrop contributes for the picture of Allen's universe of "unimaginable violence." Sur- vival in such an environment is a main concern of his characters, but he doesn't equip them to do anything more than wish for it. They glorify and reinvent their pasts, and in so doing prevent

themselves from honestly dealing with the present.

Decay and unfulfillment weigh so heavily on .September that it subverts any legitimate feelings of despair Allen might have com- municated. He should have cut his losses and kept this movie in cold storage.

Make room for second Crowded House By Bret Parker

Crowded House is out of the woods.

Many bands get lucky with their first album — score a commercial hit — then follow up the premiere release with a disappointing sophomore

Crowded House Temple of Low Men

slump. Crowded House's latest

release. Temple of Low Men, manages to avoid that frightening syndrome. Their ambitious new album retains the elements which have made the group successful thus far, yet seeks to go further.

The album combines catchy tunes with thoughtful lyrics which probe beyond the usual topical nature of Top 40 music. The album is not really pop, but some of its songs would fare well on commercial radio.

The opening track, "I Fell Possessed" starts off with a perculiar tempo which is neither catchy nor upbeat. But slowly it develops into a less eclectic melody giving lead vocalist Neil Finn the opportunity to demonstrate his smooth voice.

In the drum—driven "Kill Eye", Finn sometimes reverts to screeching, but he rebounds with the almost poetic beautiful "Into Temptation".

Another track — "Mansion in the Slums" — hints at a touch of bitterness: "the taste of success only lasts you / half an hour or less / but it loves you when it comes / and you laugh at yourself / while you're bleeding to death." The entire album is more in-

And Crowded House seems to be lining up to get the fame that Split Enz missed.

troverted than the band's first release. Crowded House, but usually avoids an overly gloomy outlook.

Without a doubt, "When You Come" shines as the best song and alone justifies the price of album. In this temp- ting morsel, lyrics and music combine perfectly — the result could easily become a commercial hit, appealing to the masses yet sacrificing nothing.

"Never be the Same", the

simple "Sister Madley", and "Love This Life" are all enjoyable, but nothing is outstanding about these songs and their lack of any special at- tributes could be the album's only weakness.

The songs on Temple of Low Men follow no formula with one example of the varying sounds being "In the Lowlands"

It is with the final track, that the album settles down to its simplest and calmest musical form. The short, but sweet, "Better Be Home Soon" has already gotten some radio airplay, and with the right strategy, some of the other songs could follow.

Crowded House, which is a splinter group from the talented New Zealand band Split Enz, has a ton of potential. And Crowded House seems to be lining up to get the fame that Split In/ missed Perhaps it will not suffer the same identity problems of its predecessor Enz — which was equally talented, but faced an overwhelming lack of atten- tion.

Temple of I <m Men is an album for which covers all emotions. If you are in the mood to sing and tap your feel or if you feel just like some thought—provoking lyrics, no house can be too crowded without this album.

Senator pledges to back area homeless shelter By Christina Davis

Meeting with staff and residents of a Chestnut Street shelter for the homeless Friday, Senator John Heinz (R-Pa.) pledged to help the shelter receive federal funding for a new facility.

Heinz received a half-hour tour of the People's Emergency Center, which has provided shelter and counseling to homeless women and children since 1972, introducing himself to kitchen workers and other volunteers. He held a press conference in the main dining room, lauding the program as a pioneer in the care of the homeless and promising to support the shelter's application for federal funding.

"This is possibly the oldest homeless center in the United States — 16 years before people really realized the homeless problem," Heinz said. "The (directors of the PEC) are applying for funds for transitional housing and I have pledged to assist them. . .1 intend to do everything possible to get this funded."

The PEC plans to begin construction of a new shelter next month at 39th and Spring Garden Streets because of development at the center's present 3311 Chesnut Street location.

PEC plans for 36 beds in the new emergency center, 33 beds in transitional housing program and nine small apartments for families.

The plans for the new facility include an emergency shelter, as well as transitional and permanent housing. PEC volunteer Beverly Edwards said that the move will enhance the shelter's current performance.

"One thing that will be a big improvement is the amount of space, and our programs will ex- pand," Edwards said.

Currently the PEC's 100 volunteers feed 400 homeless people each weekend and house 30 to 40 women and children daily.

Heinz, who is seeking his third term in the Senate, said that he feels that the counseling that goes along with transitional housing is an important aspect of the PEC's program.

"Transitional housing offers not just a bed and safety, but the services people need to move from Main Street to the mainstream of American life," he said.

In order to build the new shelter, PEC directors have requested $1.7 million under the McKinney Act, which provided the Philadelphia Public Housing Authority with $3.5 million in January to modernize and sub- sidize rents at single-room occupancy housing for the homeless.

PEC Director Gloria Guard said that the organization hopes to move into their new home in eight months.

Bock in the sixties it was hip to hop in the bock of a van and spend lunch hour contemplating your navel. Or someone else's.

But that was before Smart Alex came along to bring such mindless conformity to an end. And to make lunch hour in Philadelphia the last best hope for mankind on this planet. Or at least in the general area of 36th and Chestnut.

With salads the size of California, burgers from food orgies in 1200 BC (Before Cholesterol). Sensuous entrees that decent people won't even eat in front of their parents. Plus drinks like Naked In Jamaica, and desserts like Mortal Sin Cheese Cake which has already been smuggled into The Vatican three times. And which can now be talked about openly on the streets of Moscow.

A bad haircut flies inthe face of our philosophy

To us at Michael's Custom Cuts, hair is more than the stuff that keeps your ears warm.

Hair is our life. And has been since 1939. So when you come into the shop, we take

your hair pretty seriously. We listen to what you want. Maybe make a few suggestions. And then, once we understand where your head's at, we work a little magic.

Whether you want a perm, or a few highlights, or even just a trim, give us a call. Because the truth is. when you leave Michael's Custom Cuts, we want to good.

And that's our philosophy.

Heat wave thieves steal three air-conditioners from Greek affairs

With temperatures close to 100 degrees last week, burglars stole what may have been the most valuable equipment in the the Of- fice of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs.

Public Safety Spokesman Sylvia Canada said yesterday that three air-conditioners and a phone were stolen from the office late last Thursday night or early Fri- day morning. She said that the suspects entered through the base-

ment of the building next to OF- SA and crossed into the office from the third floor.

The third floor of 3831 Walnut Street, where OFSA is located, is the only floor which is not alarmed.

Canada said that an empty Ap- ple computer box was used to transport the air conditioners out of the building, through the front door. Police have no suspects for the burglary.

Library, police unions talk with U. Contract negotiations between

the library workers union and the administration have entered a fourth week, with a meeting between the two sides scheduled yesterday.

Additionally, preliminary talks are underway between the administration and Amalgamated Plant Guard Local 506, the union representing 47 Public Safety officers, according to University spokeman Mariellen Gallagher. The contract, which expires on August 1, affects patrol officers but not Public Safety supervisors.

University library workers, represented by American Federa- tion of State, County and Municipal Employees Local 590, have been working without a contract since July I. Several weeks ago, the rank and file authorized

the union leadership to call for a strike.

University negotiators declined to comment on the library worker contract talks, and union officials were unavailable for comment.

The library workers' union has set several priorities in the conract talks with the University, including wage, health and welfare benefits and changes in the language of current University library promotion and seniority policies.

Last week, an Office of Affir- mative Action investigation of racial discrimination charges in the library system concluded without finding racism in the current hiring system, according to library and union personnel familiar with the results.

MACARTHUR From page 1 since the program's inception in 1981, including School of Medicine Professor Stuart Kautf-

man who received $290,000 last year.

Kauffman said this week that the grants provide assistance and incentive to the recipient.

"I think [the award] is very positive," Kauffman said. "1 thought before I got the prize that the basic idea of the MacArthur prize was super. . .and everyone I know who has gotten it has managed to put it to good use."

"It lends a sense of freedom and also the expectation you are going to use it and go on to some very good work," he added. "I think of it as a responsibility and a joy."

Kauffman has been in- vestigating gene regulation and DNA cloning, and said the MacArthur money has allowed him to research at the Santa Fe In- stitute. Oxford University Press will publish a book he recently completed. Origins of Order: Selforganization and Selection in Evolution, this year.

1988 MacArthur fellow Tomlinson said that one of his first projects will be to finish a book he has planned on the relationship between music and the occult in renaissance-era Italy.

The "genius" foundation was established by John MacArthur, who owned the Banker's Life and Casualty Insurance Company.

"I figured out how to make it, you figure out how to spend it," MacArthur told his foundation board shortly before his death in 1978. The foundation is one of the largest private philanthropic groups in the United States.

A total of 254 MacArthur Fellows have been named since the program began.

CONFERENCE From page 1 Affairs Director Bruce Arnold have agreed to make

presentations. Arnold said that he has not finalized the topic of

his workshop, but plans to invite Greek officials from other campuses to take part.

"I think the issue of campus violence is one that we have to address," Arnold said.

"The issues are not just rape and assault," he added. "There are the kinds of abuse that people impose on themselves with drugs and alcohol as well as issues of sexism, racism and homophobia. We are talking about violence from a very broad point of view, and fraternity and sorority students have a stake in that just as all students do."

Conference organizers have said that the program

is the first symposium to address campus violence as such a broad issue. Unlike earlier groups, such a one this year at Towson State University, the University conference will include students, faculty and staff viewpoints.

Wilkins stressed that although the major sponsors are women's organizations, the conference not restricted to female concerns.

"The conference covers men and women and violence that occurs to them on campus," she said. "It is aimed at the students for the most part, but we also have workshops that will be presented on staff concerns."

When the conference was announced. Women's Center Director Elena DiLapi said that the program grew out of informal ties between the Women's Center and other University organizations begun during the 1985 organization of the Rape Network.

crime) is such a popular course, but I don't think that criminology is a profit-making course for the University. . .It doesn't jibe with the corporate ethics of Wharton."

Despite the problems, Wolfgang noted that the criminology program is "still very vigorous and we're attracting good students."

"It's also one of the oldest, if not the oldest [criminology program) at a premiere institution," Wolfgang added.

Fleischer and other Latino leaders were unavailable for comment.

Acting VPUL Morrisson said that the FSAB becomes very involved with collective responsibility cases, adding that she envisions a larger role for the board within the Greek community.

"I would also like to see them play a much more proactive role to set up standards and develop programming throughout the system," she said Tuesday.

The FSAB consists of the three students, two faculty members, three fraternity and sorority alumni and two ex officio administration members. The faculty representatives, who traditionally serve a term of two years, are Nursing School Assistant Pro- fessor Laura Hayman and Finance and Economics Professor Robert Inman. The three alumni include Carl Sheppard, Merv Sluizer and FSAB Chairman Mary McMonagle.

Arnold serves as an ex officio and is a non-voting member of the FSAB, as does an appointee from Morrisson's office.

fellowships for students than in recent years.

The development office held meetings and programs across the country where potential donon could meet the individuals whom their money benefits. Nahm said that these efforts were a success.

"It is exciting to see donors supporting the people of the University," he said.

Nahm said that even though the total will be a record, it will not result in a budget surplus. He said that most of the money was ac- counted for in last year's spen- ding, and the large donations were not totally unexpected.

"The vast majority of this goes for the endowment and program supports such as research and construction and renovation projects," he said. "It is basically budgeted items."

This summer the Trustees of- ficially began a capital campaign which is expected to raise $800 to $850 million over a period of five or more years. Nahm said that this year's record donations are a good sign for the future.

"It is extremely encouraging as we are building momentum for the campaign because none of these gifts are actually campaign- related," he said.

During the present "nucleus phase" of the campaign, the University is soliciting large done tions from established supporters.

athletic programs rather than buddings, the task of obtaining these donations presents a problem.

So financing air conditioning in Gimbel gym — which would re- quire "major money" according to Assistant Director of Recrea- tion Teresa Reid - does not seem a viable choice within the next few years. The answer, however, need not be so extravagant.

With the insertion of one or two more fans within the squash courts and a third in the weight room, a cross-ventilation system

would provide better relief to athletes. In addition, the Athletic Department need not delve too deeply into its pocket to produce funds to replace Gimbel's aging fans and add new ones. The cost and installation of up to eight new fans shouldn't exceed $1500.

Since Gimbel's hours (12:30 to 7:45 p.m.) occur during the hot- test period of the day — when the temperature outside has ap- proached 100 degrees much of the summer — students and faculty members have two choices.

They can endure the heat and lack of air circulation inside Gimbel gym. Or if they can't stand the fire, they can jump back into the frying pan.

High school players learn basics at annual Quaker Football School By Alan Schwarz

Germanlown Academy Junior quarter- back/defensive back Mike Gerber learned so much at last year's Quaker Football School, he decided to come back for more.

"Last year, during one of the drills, our teacher (Penn defensive back field coach Jeff Reinebold) used me for a demonstra- tion on how to bump the receiver when you're covering him," said Gerber, smil- ing. "He knocked me on my butt. But that's how you learn."

This week, the Penn football coaching

staff is holding its seventh annual camp with the help of three local high school coaches. The five-day program attracts mainly Philadelphia-area players, and aims to teach what camp director and Penn head freshman coach Dave Rackovan called "the nuts and bolts of football."

This year's camp has taken place at Bower Field due to the ongoing renovations to Franklin Field's track facilities.

The 73 campers, down from a camp- record % last year, took part in mostly drills for the first three days and will be par-

ticipating in more game-oriented exercises today and tomorrow. Sessions run from 9:00 to 11:30 and 1:30 to 3:30.

"We strongly emphasize techniques and skills at various positions," former director and Penn head coach Ed Zubrow said. "We teach things that are convertable to any level of football: blocking, running, catching and throwing."

"We're not a flashy camp by any means," he added. "There are no pro stars, and no swimming pools. It's all football."

Because of NCAA rules, no current members of the Penn football team may participate in the camp's day-to-day opera- tions. They may, however, come by to speak on periferal topics, like the dangers of drugs.

"Last year, [Footballers Against Drugs) came in to give a talk," Zubrow said. "We've always talked to the kids about that.

"But this year, we're going to have some alums come in," he added. "These kids look up to college guys. They can take back the message to the junior high schools."

Many of the camp's characteristics attract players away from the more "flashy" camps found at big-time Division 1-A schools. It cheaper than most camps in the Delaware Valley (it costs $95), and has a comparatively low 6-1 player-coach ratio.

In addition, the camp is held closer to the end of the summer than most other programs so that the players will remember

more come the high school season. "The camp shows we're interested in the

community," Zubrow said. "We offer a reasonably priced camp (most are in the $250 range) in the city at the right time of the year.

"The smaller number of campers is a real advantage," he continued. "You get to know the campers on a one-to-one basis."

The camp also allows the players to get to know Penn and its coaching staff. Several current Quakers, like sophomore Wes Carter, attended the camp while they were still in high school and later decided to app- ly to Penn.

"There are kids out there who we're trying to get a close look at," Rackovan said. "It helps us decide yes or no, and gives them an idea of what Penn is all about."

"I'd like to go to Penn," Gerber said. "My father went here, and I've been coming to games ever since 1 was a little tyke. I hope they like me."

Gimbel's ineffective ventilation provides little shelter in summer

If you have recently wandered around 33rd Street in hopes of getting in a quick game of basketball or maybe swimming a few dozen laps in the pool, you've discovered that Hutchinson gym is closed for the summer.

Which means that you probably then headed toward the University's only other

A Front Row View Maureen Delany

accessible gymnasium, Gimbel gym, in search of a little exercise without having to toil outside in the scorching Philadelphia heat and humidity.

More likely than not, what you en- countered inside Gimbel resembled its ex- terior in a rather repelling manner.

Kind of like jumping out of the frying pan ....

Any person who has been in a hot kitchen knows that you need a breeze to relieve the heat. But the conditions inside Gimbel, featuring triple-digit temperatures and virtually no air circulation, provide little relief when options exist which would help make the facility bearable.

• Currently, Hutch is in the initial stages of

its major renovations. According to Senior Associate Athletic Director Carolyn Schlie, the process begins with the painting and cleaning of Hutch's men's and women's locker rooms, and necessitates closing the gym.

The extensive changes will resume next May. The gym area itself will undergo renovations in its electrical and ventilation systems, windows and ceilings. Additional- ly, the pool requires painting and upgrading of the ventilation and electrical system. The halls and stairways will be

cleaned and painted, and the list goes on and on.

Schlie expects the entire renovation of Hutch to last three years.

So with Hutch closed for three summers, students and faculty members will use Gimbel for their sole recluse from the heat. Dedicated in 1968, Gimbel is forty years younger and certainly in better condition, but it provides little escape.

For example, inside Gimbel's squash courts, basketball court and weight room, the temperature on Monday reached almost 100 degrees. And this was one of the better days, some basketball players observed. Meanwhile, temperatures outside the gym ranged in only the low nineties.

Admittedly, Gimbel does feature a form of ventilation — there is a fan near the ceil- ing of its four squash and racquetball courts and two in its weight room. However, several fans do nothing but blow hot air around the upper regions of the room and are ineffective in lowering body heat. In particular, one fan directly faces a corner — reducing the little relief it could provide.

Perhaps those who manage Gimbel gym might advertise the courts as dual-purpose facilities. After all, there's no need to in- stall a sauna when a half-hour inside one of those stuffy boxes would do the trick.

Although such oppressive conditions may not present immediate danger to players, the lack of substantial ventilation represents a potential health hazard.

"By elevating the body temperature, there is a lot of energy lost in the form of heat," said Dr. Pam Douglas, a car- diovascular specialist at HUP. "It can cause major problems, (such as) heat stroke. And if you sweat a lot, it will deplete the blood flowing to the vessels.

"Circulation of air helps, (because] it brings the skin temperature down when the sweat evaporates."

The temperature flirts with the century mark as Ed Spanzenberg swelters on the squash courts.

Unfortunately, the Athletic Department is not yet discussing possible renovations — especially not air conditioning.

"Gimbel gym is definitely a lower priori- ty, mostly because Hutch is so much older," Schlie said. "(Gimbel) is next on the list.

"The peak usage time is when people wouldn't need air conditioning. It does not seem cost effective, although we haven't discussed that yet."

Schlie estimates that the cost of upgrading Hutch, for example, will ap- proach one and a quarter million dollars. Because an employee recreational fee — which would have provided funds for this and other projects — was rejected in 1986, money must now come from within the athletic department.

After the faculty union refused to accept the fee, the University countered with an offer to match the money which the Athletic Department derives from donations — up to $150,000 per year for three years. Since alumni prefer giving money to

Simon released after emergency appendectomy By Alan Schwarz

Jerry Simon, a junio. guard on the Penn men's basketball team, was released yesterday from the Hospital of the University of Pen- nsylvania after undergoing a two- hour operation last Sunday to remove a ruptured appendix.

Simon will be able to resume playing basketball "whenever he feels ready," according to Dr. Leonard Miller, who performed the appendectomy. Simon predicted he'd be back within six weeks.

"A lot depends on when he feels better," Miller said. "He could be fine in a week or two. He'll easily make the basketball season, and pre-season practice as well."

"He's in great shape, and has no weight problem," Penn head coach Tom Schneider said. "I'm not worried at all."

Simon complained of stomach pains two weeks ago and went to Student Health to receive medication for what officials thought was food poisoning, as Simon did not show what he called the "regular symptoms." When the medication didn't have any effect, Simon went to HUP, where it was discovered his appendix had burst sometime before.

"There's no way to tell when it ruptured," Miller said. "You can't backtrack."

"I'm feeling a lot better," Simon said on Monday. "1 was pretty bad •"

"There are various degrees of ruptured appendices," Miller said. "Sometimes the infection spreads, but in Jerry's case the infection remained local. It's still a serious operation."
