58th Year No. 13 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY, WASHINGTON, D.C. Friday, December 2,1977 PLO Speech Marred By Students' Protests by Chuck Arians Can dle-ligh t demonstrations, walk-outs, interruptions and shouted obscenities marked the appearance Wednesday night of Hasan Rahman, Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Rah- man's speech was sponsored by the International Relations Club (IRC) as part of an on-going series on the N Middle East. that no disruptions would occur, told the audience that freedom of speech was "too valuable for words. It's what a University represents," he said. Hasam Rahman a speaker from the Palestine Liberation Organization was met with protests, shouted interruptions and walkouts while talking at Gaston Hall Wednesday night. Rahman, in an exclusive interview with the HOY A, blamed the disrup- tions on "Zionist-inspired elements." He said that "all those who are afraid to let others hear will interrupt. They try to make it impossible that others may listen." Rahman added that he has experienced more severe disrup- tions during other speeches he has made. Prior to the speech, a demon· stration was held at the foot of the stairs leading to Gaston by members of Ko'ach ("strength" in Hebrew), a branch of the Jewish Students Association (JSA). Yahrzeit candles (which traditionally are lit in me- mory of the dead) were placed on a table in the shape of a Star of David Ko'ach leader Deborah Katz said the candles were lit because the IRC was "allowing a representative of mur- derers to speak. We're just reminding people who this man is," she said. Res. -Life Proposes New Lottery; Trial System May Come In '78 Rahman, who was escorted to the Gaston Hall podium by a University Security officer, was introduced by Mark Taplin, Acting Director of University Affairs for the IRC. In his introduction, Taplin acknowledged that "there has been a lot 0 f controversy" concerning Rahman's appearance. He said it was "the (IRC) board's decision that in the interest of a balanced presentation" of the middle East Rahman had been invited to .speak. Saying he hoped Complications arose when posters were placed Wednesday morning in various campus locations announcing that "a lecture by PLO Rep. Rachman (sic) has been rescheduled for Friday 3:00 Gaston. Sponsored by the International Relations Club." Concerning the unauthorized litera- ture, Taplin apologized for "some confusion as to when this meeting would be held. For those of you who aren't here and will be Friday afternoon, my apologies." by Miles O'Brien Room retention rights, integration of freshmen halls and revised room selection procedure are among the renovations that have been recom- mended by the Residence Life Housing and Procedures Committee_ The committee's proposals will be considered by the Student Life Policy Committee. If the SLPC recommends the measures they must then be approved by Dean of' Student Affairs, William Stott, Vice President for Academic Affairs Fr. Aloysius Kelley and finally Univer- sity President Fr. Timothy Healy, before going into effect. Under the room retention rights scheme ad- vanced b1Jl.. ,- the Housing,,,. policies Committee, winners in the housing lottery would be allowed to retain thei'r rooms from one year to the next if they so desired. Room selection would be altered so that the number a person receives in the lottery would be his/her actual number in line for a room. Under the present system those who will be seniors, choose first, followed by the other two classes in order. The present priority system might still be maintained by automatically as- signing the lowest numbers to seniors, the next highest numbers to juniors, and so on. Numbers are assigned to all classes haphazardly under the present system. If the proposals go into effect, there will no longer be halls exclusi- vely designated for freshmen. How- ever, Copley would be set aside for upperclassmen "to allow them the option of the regimentation of the past," explained one committee member. Ea\"lier this week, the Housing Policies Committee held hearings open to the entire GU community to field suggestions. In a recent report the committee responded to criticism of the fresh- man hall integration proposal "Even though (freshman) parietals would go, any of the good effects achieved by parietals could be had in mixed halls. The freshmen experience at Georgetown would not be lost but rather enhanced as a result of the proposal. The Committee cites three ingre- dients found in their interpretation of the definition of the freshmen experience. "1) A hall floor consists of freshman residents; 2) The resi- dents lead each other support and enthusiasm and help each other through trying times; 3) The resi- dents grow and learn together and form lasting friendship groups." The committee feels that the new pro- posal would only alter the first ingredient, and the remaining two would be in "an expanding rather than limiting direction" as stated in the report. If any of the suggestions are implemented, they will go into effect in two year trial period starting Healy Joins Call To Free Dissident by Joe Ryan Georgetown University President Father Timothy Healy, S.J_ has joined over a hundred noted figures in a public statement in support of the release of Soviet dissident Anatoly Sharansky. Sharansky, a Soviet Jew, had been denied permiSSion to emigrate to join his family in Israel. He was jailed earlier this year on charges of treason for his public activities in Moscow in support of the human rights portion of the Helsinki Accords. The statement issued by the International Committee For the release of Sharansky which is lead by Congressman Robert Drinian, a Jesuit priest from Massachusetts calls, "upon President Brezhnev' to bring about the release of Anatoly Sharansky. We also appeal to Mr. Kurt Waldheim, Secretary General of the United Nations, and to the delegates to the Belgrade Confrence. to Review Compliance with the Conference on Security and Co- operation in Europe, to take every available action to bring about the release of Anatoly Sharansky." Attempts to get a statement from Father Healy's office on why he decided to join the human rights campaign were unsuccessful.

Dr_ Dmitri Simes of Georgetown's Center for Strategic and Inter- national Studies (CSIS) also added his support to the committee's statement. The arrest of Sharansky provoked an international protest last spring and summer among human rights activists and Jews. Recent efforts on Sharansky's hehalf have included various American politicians and religious leaders of many different view points. Father Drinan's committee has successfully enlisted the support of other members of Congress, in- cluding Mayor-elect Koch of New York, and Congressmen Quie of Minnesota and Harrington of Mas- sachusetts.

Raul Mas, president of the Cuban Students Association said of Healy's partici- pation," I am happy to see that. It shows an interest on his part in human rights. I hope he keeps it up in other areas, including left as well as right wing regimes in Lagin America." Another student, Jay Spiegel (C '80), called Father Healy's action "a courageous and proper thing for a university president to do for such an important human rights issue." Marty Bollinger and Barney Edmonds, two campus supporters of Amnesty International, a world-wide human rights organization, also lauded Healy's decision to support the Sharansky cause. with the '78 lottery. After the '79 lottery, the Director of Residence Life will conduct a final evaluation of the effectiveness of the new innovations. At that time, decisions will be made as to whether the experiment was successful and whe- ther the experiment was successful and to return to the present system.

"Georgetown should phase out the PHD Program in Russian as neither the staff nor library resources do it justice" stated evaluator Clayton Dawson of the University of Illinois, in the final report. He said he was shocked to learn that institutions such, as Columbia and Harvard will not 'accept a Georgetown MS in Russian as coursework for their PHD programs. Master of Science (MS) and PhD programs in the language depart- ments were assailed for inadequate fellowship aid, "meager" library resources, constrictive agreements and what the evaluators believe to be excessive emphasis on linguistic instruction at the expense of culture and literature. Though, much criticism was lev- eled at individual programs stUdents and faculty of the SLL recieved strong praise. In a summary of the consultant's opinions prepared by the Language School, Victor Lange of Princeton University's German Dept. stated, "The students are splendidly motivated, alert, and de- cicated to their work." Dawson wrote, "I have seldom if ever, encountered a stronger, more dedic- ated group of teachers." The consultants, however, were harsh in their appraisal of some Intensive Basic and Advanced under- graduate courses. They are "out- rageously large," claimed Dawson. The 30-40 student enrollment is "nothing short of scandalous," wrote French Dept. evaluator Thomas Bis- hop of New York University. Another criticism cited by nearly a dozen evaluators is that there is too much authority in the office of the dean and not enough in the hands of the faculty and students. Under the present system, where- by departmental chairmen have no budget allotted to them, "chairmen cannot be made responsible for selecting and appointing faculty, or even for promotions, beyond a very crude and approximate expression of their wishes," one evaluator for Spanish noted. "Student input is non-existent on a departmental basis," said Bishop. "There is no such thing as a faculty meeting," he charges. The outside evaluators, experts in the fields of languages and linguistics from Princeton, Rutgers and other nationally known universities, were called in last February as part of a self·evaluation the SLL had begun in 1975. Their reports were to com- plement the internal self-study each department had already made. Assigned two to a department in most cases, the evaluators visited classes and drill sessions and met with students over a three day period. Their verdicts, and depart- mental reactions to them, are cur- rently available in the SLL Dean's Office.

The $250 figure was one of two options presented by Bell to the committee, following the unexpected utilities increase which upset the committee's previous plans. The second option includes a $400 undergraduate in- and a $200 graduate hike which would produce a quarter of a million dollar deficit. This plan would allow for a 7% increase in faculty salaries. While the tuition SUbcommittee has recommended against a differential tuition increase in which case the undergrad tuition increase is greater than the grad tuition increase. MCFC Chairman and Dean of the Graduate School Donald Herzberg contended that any increase in graduate tuition over $150 would lead to declining enrollment and decreased revenue. Earlier in the meeting the Committee unanimously passed a resolution to raise the credit hours for the full time graduate tuition from nine credit hours to twelve in an attempt to capture increased revenue. Herzburg said that grad students have been taking fewer credit hours to avoid paying full time tuition. Another possible option has been prepared by Student Senator Scott Ozmun and the student members of the MCFC. According to student committee member Ken Knisely their paIn presents a balanced budget with a tuition increase of $360 and a "moderate faculty increase". However this option includes savings from conservation measures currently being investigated by physical plant and revenue from areas such as the Summer School of Continuing Education and Athletics not added into Bell's options. "We think the faculty deserve as much of an increase as we can possible give them," stated Knisely, "however the tragedy is that they are one of the areas most vulneralbe to cuts unlike protected areas such as Overhead. " Currently a 1% increase in academic salaries translates into a $14.1 tuition increase and a 1% increase in indirect costs, which includes, among other things, utilities and physical plant, yields a $14.4 tuition hike. Indirect Costs account for 27.8% of the Main Campus budget while academic-salaries represent 26.7% of the budget. In other committee action, a resolution to place control of faculty merit increases in each dean's office was passed by a vote of 7 to 4. with three abstentions. Currently increases are given to the individual departments and distributed by the department chairman. According to Herzberg, the change will allow for "further control and stiffening of the merit process." were inconsiderate of the speaker. I was prepared for the worst, and the worst didn't happen.

CIA Reveals Recruiting

On Campus by Tony Mattia

Recent documents released by the Central Intelligence Agency have revealed a pattern of spying and recruitment of students on college campuses which may include George­town University.

The documents were released under a Freedom of Information Act request file by Morton Halperin of the Campaign to Stop Government Spying. The documents, however, deleted all names and actual univer· sities.

According to Cary Clennon, mem­ber of the People's Action Caucus and a student working for the Campaign to Stop Government Spy­ing, "several faculty members were and probably still are working for the CIA.

After assessing the student, Clen­non said, the faculty member would alert the CIA who would then investigate the student's background and private life. Eventually someone would approach the student and offer him some position with the CIA. Clennon claimed that thE' alleged activities were performed without the knowledge of the stud­ents or other faculty members.

Also, ClE'nnon said there is reason to believe that several Georgetown professors have been given secret

,information on the Soviet Union by the CIA in 1976 in exchange for special research done by the profess­ors.

In addition to an alleged covert recruitment program at Georgetown, for which was never offiCially impli­cated, the CIA did have a recruit­ment position in the late 1960's and early 1970's at the Georgetown Placement Office.

'Tuesday afternoon, former Ambas· sador to Great Britain Anne Arm· stroag told a restricted audience that modem diplomacy has been greatly affected by such factors as mass media and jet transportation.

The speech was the second in an annual two· part series presented by the s£hool of Foreign Service.

'previously impossible before the jet age.

Ms. Armstrong noted several new processes in modern diplomacy, including the apprpximately 700 multinational conferences which the U.S. attends each year, and bilateral conferences such as summit talks, SALT negotiations, and the Panama Canal negotiations.

This week the group was supposed to have submitted to Univ. Pres. Fr. Timothy Healy their petition, asking the President to appoint a commit· tee of students, faculty and adminis· trators to review the Kissinger appointment. However, spokesman for SOAK Jeff Hagerman said he has been unable to arrange an appoint· ment with Healy, who according to Assistant Charles Meng has been suffering from a bad back.

While SOAK is seeking additional support, Kissinger meanwhile is pre· paring a syllabus for his spring semester course, "Case Studies in Contemporary American Diplo· macy". The course, according to SFS Dean Peter Krogh, will have an enrollment of about 25:12 under· graduates, 9 MSFS stUdents, 2 MA in International Relations students from the Government Dep., and several students from other Consor· tium universities.

has run into problems presenting their petition against Henry Kissinger to Father Healy.

According to Ms. Armstrong, the era of modern diplomacy began after wwn with the advancement of technology in communications and transportation, and used television and jet travel. •

In light of these new processes, Ms. Armstrong said the role of the modern diplomat is provide an insight to the development within nations, and to predict trends in that nation's poliCies. In spite of the changes in diplomacy after WW II, she said the role of the individual diplomat is still the most important. In addition, Hagerman has been

refused permission to use the campus mail service to distribute SOAK's petition on and off campus, because SOAK is not officially chartered as a student activity here.

The course, Krogh said, will meet once a week for a two and a half hour session. The dean said he did not know if Kissinger would attend all the classes, but added that the former Secretary of State would be present at most of them.

Coal Boiler To Save Gtown Energy Bucks

Because foreign policy is now witnessed on the TV screen, Ms. Armstrong- said, there is a much greater impact by the media and public upon foreign policy.

Within this context, Ms. Arm· strong said, the U.S. diplomat must be a public diplomat because diplo· macy is more and more being brought out of smoke filled rooms and into the public forum such as radio and television. She claimed the new diplomat must also be a gene· ralist who has a general knowledge on all the topics in order to be able to face the media on all the issues ranging from NATO to the Concorde, to fishing rights.

While advancement in technology may have changed the format of international diplomacy, .,Ms. Armstrong confirmed that the impor­tance of the diplomat will remain because bilateral negotiation is still conducted by personalities on a one to one basis.

Student Activities Director Jeff Fogelson, who denied the request, also blocked an attempt by the Georgetown chapter of the People's Action Caucus to mail the anti­Kissinger petition on behalf of SOAK. The PAC had already obtain· ed the mailing addresses of off­campus students from the Registrar's Office when Fogelson ruled they could not send out a letter endorsed by the members of a different group.

Kissinger gave his last lecture of the semester Wednesday. The press was not admitted, but students who attended told The HOYA that Kissinger had spoken extempora· neously for about 45 minutes. The Univ. Professor aIlegedly discussed topics ranging from Eurocommunism to Egyptian President Anwar Sadat's visit to Israel, which he praised as an historic event.

PhD Prog Evaluated (Continued from page 1)

Semester. SLL faculty had been angered

over a "Work Sheet" submitted by Grad Dean Donald Herzberg to Alatis, without consulation with the faculty for the two to determine jointly by Oct. 7 whether the PhD in language programs should be sus· pended. If suspension is necessary, stated the plan, department chairmen would then be comsulted to deter· mine which courses could be drop· ped. The decision to suspend would not have been made public until

early December, two months after it had been reached.

Faced with faculty opposition, Herzberg told the Steering Com· mittee in late October Forum of the SLL Faculty he would be willing to work with SLL students, faculty and administrators in discussing the PhD program issue. In his defense, the Grad Dean has said that back in Nov. 1976 he told the SLL Area Council that many departments of the Grad School would have to be questioned -and he intended to be "very tough."

by Sarah Maleady The new University coal· burning

heating and cooling plant currently being constructed with a $14.5 million dollar grant from the govern· ment, may save Georgetown money in fuel costs.

"We are anticipating that it wH·l be less expensive," commented Director of Construction Ben Scarborough citing the relatively stable current coal costs as compared to the "rishlg gas and oil prices."

Utility costs have become an increased area of concern to the University in the wake of an unexpected utility increase of $339,276 for FY '78 and $1,013,208 for FY '79 which may raise tuition as much as $400.

The government is funding the new boiler plant as a "demonstration project with ERDA to demonstrate a completely safe, environmentally, coal- plant for University use, or any other use, for electric generation, heating, etc." according to Robert Miller, Assistant Director of Physical Plant. Scarborough also stated that the new plant will release no

pollution. Currently Georgetown utilizes

two gas and oil boilers to carry the service load for the University. However the new boiler is expected to handle the entire load by itself which will allow the present units to be used as back·ups or emer· gencies. The new boiler will oper· ate on a "fluidized bed combustion technique" according to Public Infor· mation Officer for the newly created Department of Energy Robert Por· ter. He stated that the method will allow each coal particle to burn more completely thus increasing the ef· ficiency of the process and releasing a "usable by·product."

Though he stated "Of all the ways of burning coal now, it (this method) appears most favorable," Porter em· phasized that "we are very early in the development of the fluidized bed combustion," and that it wiII be some time before this method is ready for "widespread commercial and private use." He said, "We are trying to develop all of our options so that we have a choice later on" for an efficient, economical energy system.

Transportation has made the age of shuttle diplomacy possible. As an example, she said that Henry Kissinger was able to sneak off to

.the People's Republic of China without being detected, a feat

Ms. Armstrong said Modern diplo­macy is faced with complex issues of interdependence and the changing alliance structures based upon oil. Mrs. Armstrong claimed that the US only woke up to the idea of interdependence after the 1973·4 oil embargo. Since then the US has had to reorient its foreign policy to adjust for the change in economic power as a result of the quadrupling of oil prices.

Veeps Debate Over Tri-Campus Georgetown: A Unity or Trinity

by Alisa Levitt Georgetown's reputation is the

greatest unifying strength between the three' campuses said Georgetowns three University Executive Vice Presidents at Tuesdays University Forum entitled "A three campus Georgetown: Is it a Unity or Trinity?"

Executive VP for Academic Af· fairs, Father Aloysius Kelley stated, "There is a great deal of Unity" through the university's inter·center, inter-sc!lool and graduate programs. He stated that because these pro· grams are all subordinate to the President rather than to a particular campus a greater unity is achieved.

Law center Dean David McCarthy, contends that a trinity exists because of the multiplicity of schools within the University as a whole and within each individual center. Another schism he cited was the location of the three campuses, but he com­mented, "our sattelite system of affiliation" has its advantages in that it allows proximity to the courts for the Law Center and a reasonable amount of autonomy for all the schools.

Matthew McNulty also cited the , goegraphica divisions terming the main campus, "the lower campus" and the law center, "the distant' campus."

Kissinger to Become Consultant for USC

by Laura Otterbourg Dr. Henry Kissinger, Georgetown

School of Foreign Service professor and former U.S. Secretary of State will be a consultant to the Center for the Study of the American Experi­ence at University of Southern California in Los Angeles.

looking for scholarly participants at Georgetown University is to me unknown," contended Ms. Klancke.

"Dr. Kissinger, an asset for the Study Center, has a rather involved background with his country. He has taken an interest not only in practicalities, but also in academic functions," said Ms. Klancke.

Despite this both M~Carthy and McNulty said they saw more aspects of unity within the University. McNulty maintains that the cam­puses are intimately related and integrated financially as well as morally. McCarthy says that financial planning between the campuses dis· solved rivalry since the three VP's are able to co-ordinate their activities and maintain responsibilities for their own budgets instead of relegating them to an upper echelon. McNulty futher added that integration occurs because there is one set of books, one treasurer and one investment policy.

However, McNulty says that more importantly, the objectives of each campus llre the same regardless of their unique programs and prob­lems; Education, Research, Service and Community Service.

In response to a question follow­ing the three statements concerning more joint programs to promote student unity, the VPs pointed out that the door was not closed in this area and yet, lack of interest on the studnets' part has added to the nonavailability of such programs. The Rec-Plex in their opinion will make the Law and Med Center students more visible on the main campus.

GU Prof Among 90 Advocating lTemporary Affirmative Action'

by Michael Marecki A statement: advocating "affir­

mative action," which has been signed by GU Law Professor Robert

"Kissinger, although invited to be the director of the Center decided that the role of consultant would be more apropo at this time," stated Sara Klancke, administrative assistant for the Study Center.

Ms. Klancke described the pro­gram as a center where scholars of note are invited for a duration of one month to three years, depending on the nature of the project. Klancke said that such projects include either books, television series and films on the development of the American Culture and history. The nature of' the project determines the length of the scholar's stay. Dr. Kissinger, however, has no time bound resi­dency at the Study Center she said.

The Study Center is being funded by Ambassador Ammenberg, who according to Klancke is "a highly principled and involved man com­mitted to the United States and academic endeavors." There are two Ammenberg Schools of Com­munications, one located at the University of Southern California. The Study Center is also a part of the University.

Conflict of Interest Policy May Change

Pitrosky and eighty -nine other U ni­ver~ity Professors was released by the American Civil Liberties Union earl­ier this week. The statement was made in regard to the B<.«:ke case which is currently pending before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Affirmative action programs are designe'd to improve educational and occupational opportunities for racial minorities and women. The Bakke case may determine the con­stitutionality of what an increasing number of people are now calling "reverse discrimination."

taged minorities are placed in a separate admissions pool to compete only against each other. While Davis summarily rejects white male ap­plicants with a QPI b!'low 2.5 it has accepted minority students with averages as low as 2.1. Bakke, with a 3.5 QPI, believes himself to be a victim of reverse discrimination.

Davis retained Archibald Cox, a Harvard law professor, a former Solicitor General of the U.S., and Watergate special prosecutor, to plead its case before the Supreme Court of the United States. Cox argued that while affirmative action sometimes discriminates against white males, it remains an attempt to r('solve a historic injustice and should, therefore, be defined as "benign" rather than "invidious" discrimination in the interests of all society.

As Consultant, said Klancke. Dr. Kissinger will give imput on matters important to the study of the "American Experience," claiming that his job is an advisory role.

This past March, the Study Center conducted a sort of "Think Tank" experience to which various scholars were invited.

The University's Board of Direc­tors is set to adopt a new policy governing conflict of interest situa· tions for administrators at its Jan­uary meeting, said University of­ficials.

VP for Administrative Services Daniel Altobello told the HOYA, that the proposed policy would, if approved, explicitly cover members of the University's Board of Direc­tors for the first time and would require University personnel, includ· ing faculty department chairmen to disclose to the uni versi ty "material associations which might appear to impair (their) respon,sibili~ies to (Georgetown)_"

In addition, the Faculty Senate is presently considering revisions to the existing faculty code on conflict of interest. The present policy calls for faculty members to restrict their

outside paid work to eight hours a week. The proposed revision of the policy changes that limit to an avprdge of one day per academic work week.

However, Faculty Senate Presi­dent Stanislaw Wasowski commented that he does not see the present eight hour limit being enforced in most departments and noted that he would like to see the University "require (only) that we (faculty) offer sufficient services," calling it "a matter between the faculty member and his chairman." Wasowski com· mented that he preferred such a regulation to a specific limit on outside activities, such as consulting work.

The Faculty Senate's Ad Hoc Committee on conflict of Interest will also propose, according to Law Professor John Murphy, that faculty members be urged to disclose any financial ties which might be neces· sary "to completely evaluate their work."

Murphy commented that the proposed change arose, in part, from recent concern over CIA sponsorship of faculty research.

An earlier proposal by the Ad Hoc Committee that faculty members be required to disclose, in discussing issues "of public importance or controversy," any "financial inter­est ... which should be known to permit complete evaluation of the views expressed," drew criticism at the November meeting of the Fac­ulty Senate.

The new Ad Hoc Committee proposals will be presen ted to the Senate at its December 8th meeting.

Present University conflict of interest policy for administrators and faculty members calls for disclosure to the university of any "financial activity ... considered in conflict with the interests of the University."

The new policy was drawn up according to Altobello, over the past 18 months in consultation with the university's lawyers at the request of the Finance Com· mittee of the University's Board of Directors.

The statement states that, in order "To alter deeply entrenched dis­crimination patterns that block movement toward a system of general neutrality, we support the temporary use of affirmative action including class· based hiring pre· ferences and admission goals."

The statement further claims that: "Without affirmative action, there is scant prospect of achieving, in this century, a society in which positions held by members of sexual and racial groups are not projections of past discrimination patterns."

Alan Bakke is 37 years old, a Vietnamese War veteran, a NASA research engineer, and a medical school aspirant. He has a 3.5 grade-point average and has been twice denied. admittance to the University of California at Davis Medical School and to five other schools, Davis Medical School has available one hundred first-year stu­dent positions of which sixteen places are reserved for "disad· vantaged students."

The California Supreme Court has already rejected the "benign dis­crimination" plea on the basis of the equal protection clause in the Four­teenth Amendment. The majority opinion states that "to secure equal­ity of treatment to all is incom· patible with the premise that some races may be afforded a higher degree of protection against unequal treatment than others."

According to several sources, it seems likely that the U.s. Supreme Court will, at the suggestion of a Justice Departement brief, support the principle of affirmatiVe action as a remedial effort to overcome past discrimination, yet rule against Davis, whose separate admission procedures for minority students is too ob· viously discriminatory.

PLO Rep_ Protested (continued from Page 1)

Rahman's SPeech had to be stop· ped."

Although as of press time it had not been determined who had been responsible for the posters, a source close to the IRC indicated that if the culprit is found, he or she may b~ brought before the Adjudication Board for "fraud."

After Rahman had spoken for less than one minute, a group of approximately 15 persons rose and left the hall shouting, among other things "Do you realize who you're listening to?"

At this point Rahman said "those who are afraid of the truth don't listen to it." He said that if the pro· testors had remained, "we could at least discuss our respective posi­tions."

This prompted one spectator to shout "if you want to talk, why hasn't the PLO agreed to go to Cairo" for Saturdav's summit meet· ing called by Egyptian president Anwar Sadat. "I'll get to that" was Rahman's response.

"It is not up to Mr, Sadat to surrender the heritage of the Pales­tinian people," Rahman said, adding that the Sadat peace initiative is mistaken" because Israel is not willing "to grant the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people," Rahman also expressed his concern over the split apparently developing in the Arab world, stating that "Arab consensus is important to us. Divi­sion is not good either for peace or for war."

Rahman asserted his position that the PLO was "the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people." He said that "the PLO first acquired its legitimacy from the Palestinian people themselves," and later was recognized by international organizations, including the UN. "Even President Carter said that the PLO represents a 'substantial por· tion' of the Palestinian people."

While asserting that "Israel has intransigently maintained a state of war against the Palestinians" we are not opposed to the Jews as Jews," he said.

In response to a question con­cerning the 60% of Israel's popula­tion who are from Arab lands, Rahman said that "they are Arab

Jews in the same sense that we have American Jews, and I respect their right to go back." Concerning fears that Jews in Arab lands would be 2nd·class citizens, Rahman said "if that happens I will be the first to go and fight for them."

JSA co-chairman Richard .Jacobs told the HOY A after the speech that "the two co·chairmen and Rabbi White (Harold White, Jewish chap­lain) felt that the behavior of certain people (in the audience) was not proper." Jacobs said that some demonstraters had been shouting curses at people entering the hall and that this tactic was "counter· productive. These people were show­ing themselves to be more hot· headed that Rahman," he said, adding that Rahman did not appear ".'ery hot-headed."

The IRC hopes to obtain Israeli Ambassador to the U.S., Simcha Dinitz, as a speaker. Dinitz is an SFS graduate. "1 think when Dinitz comes," said Taplin, "we may get more of the same for the other side."

Rahman's appearance had origi­nally been arranged in early Novem­ber by Ilona Popper, then Director of University Affairs of the IRC. Pop­per, changed her mind and cancelled the engagement, prior to her resigna­tion on November 14, for "reasons unrelated to the Rahman speaking engagement," according to an IRC press release.

The IRC board, after Lwo meetings, decided to reinvite Rahman, "in keeping with the University's tradi· tional commitment to the free exchange of ideas in an academic context," according to the release.

A reliable source told the HOY A that Popper's cancellation decision came after a conversation with University President Timothy Healy, S.J. The source said that Fr. Healy had expressed his opposition to the PLO, while also stating that he would do nothing to prevent the Rahman speech. A spokesman for the Presi­dent's Office said that Fr. Healy was not planning to make a statement on the issue.

The IRC release said that "In no way is the invitation of the Inter­national Relations Club to Mr. Rahman, either implicitly or explic­itly, a political endorsement of his or his Organization's views or atti­tudes. "

editoli·Qls Watergate Tactics

Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of Wednesday night's speech by Palestine Libera­tion Organization representative Hasan Rah­man was the methods used by some members of the University community to "express their disagreement" with the PLO.

We do not in any way support the PLO. We find many fa their methods to be most reprehensible. The litany of terrorist acts and murders of innocent people committed by the PLO is a long one. Yet, like it or not, the PLO is a factor in the Middle East and their presence in the context of a series of speeches by parties to the Middle East dispute is not only defensible but even perhaps desirable. In a University such as Georgetown, there should be room for every viewpoint to be heard.

Though people have a right to protest against the PLO, the methods used Wednesday can only be counterproductive. Silent protest is fine. Shouting curses at people entering the hall is unacceptable. Leaving a speech if one is offended is acceptable, but quietly and without disruption. Even putting up signs urging people not to attend is OK. But announcing a rescheduling of the speech is only a return to Watergate tactics.

We realize that only a small number .of people indulged in these activities, but they reflect poorly not only on the anti-PLO group (probably a majority of Georgetown students) but on the University as well. Indeed, they have shown themselves to be little better than the terrorists they rightfully condemn.

Radio Free GU7 It was just a couple of weeks ago that we

reported that the Athletic Department had lost a form that would have enabled the women's volley ball team to participate in the EAIW playoffs. Well they are at it again but this time they didn't lose a form, but instead a radio station.

Frank Rienzo and his Athletic Department have decided not to let WGTB broadcast the basketball games. It seems that WGTB couldn't stomach the Athletic Department's policy anymore and decided to get an announcer that was more palatable. Of course Rienzo and Company will try to blame those naming radicals down at GTB for causing more trouble but he won't get away with it. Even Father Healy supports Station Manager Bob Utten­weiler's attempt to save his radio station's integrity as well as its license. You see the FCC has threatened .to take away the Universitys broadcasting license if it doesn't maintain adequate control of the station.

You're out of control when you're announ­cer (Rich Chvotkin) is answerable to Rienzo

- and Thompson only. And who did GTB want to replace Chvotkin

with some long haired hippy who'd play the Star Spangled Banner backwards? No, he is actually a Hoya graduate who had done GU basketball before; they want him because hl' is answerable to GTB not Rienzo.

GTB's man is even on the Board of Directors of Hoyas Unlimited, who false funds for football, baseball, and every other sport.

This is the same athletic Department that just got an additional two new staff members to work in a Department that not only loses forms and radio stations but also over half its budget in administrative costs.

Something is wrong here. Maybe someone should investigate the Athletic Dept and find out.

WGTB must retain control and its editorial integrity. We at the Hoya wouldn't let the Sports Information Director cover the basket­ball games for us, and GTB shoulcln't be asked to do something similar.

Season's Greetings Georgetown's administrators, devoted as

they are to tile task of running this university, deserve a few extra gifts under their Christmas tree. Budget permitting, here are some items the HOY A would like to gift wrap and send through the campus mail.

To Bill i\Iiller, head of Physical Plant, a stocking full of coal - for his new boiler plant. The gift will certainly be appreciated what with utility hikes jacking up tuition while half the campus is heated to blast furnace temperatures in the winter.

To Housekeeping some honest work. A cenSllS taker recently inquired how many people work in this department. About one-third of them do.

To Presidential Assistant, Charles l\1cng, some civility. And to the president and his entourage, plane tickets to variolls exotic corners of the earth where they can fundraise to their hearts[ content. That way we can

continue to brag that to sun never sets on the Geurgetown administration.

To SOAK, 100 cartons of Oh Henry! bars. To the clothing department of the Univer­

sity Shop, moths. We hereby suggest that in the spirit of Christmas giving they liquidate their stock by donating it to the Salvation Army.

To the campus in general, peace, brother­hood and good will fo a change. If God and sinners can be reconciled, why Krogh and Buchwald? Wouldn't it be nice if Ken Knisely and Frank Rienzo could exchange Christmas cards with another? And SOAK and Henry Kissinger could discuss their grievances over a bowl of hot punch.

To J\hrk IvIcAdams, editor-in-chief for the past two semesters, a new head. He can take the old one over to the recycling center and get the five cent deposit on empties.

To the Editor: We oppose the appointment of

Dr. Henry KisSinger to a distin­guished professorship at Georgetown University. Whatever Dr. Kissinger's merits as a scholar, honoring him for his past and present work cannot exclude consideration of his actions since 1969 as National Security Advisor and as Secretary of State. By conferring a University Professorship on him, Georgetown implicitly con­dones his acts as a high government official.

We support the efforts of S.O.A.K. (Students Opposed to the Appointment of Kissinger) to educ­ate students and faculty concerning the issues surrounding Dr. Kissinger's appointment, his actions in govern-_ ment, and the resulting ethical problems that confront Georgetown.

We request you to reconsider your

appointment of Dr. Henry Kissinger to the Georgetown Faculty. We do not see the wisdom of making such a sensitive appointment to such a distinguished position without exten­sive consultation with facuIty and students. We protest this appoint­ment because it represents a public departure from Georgetown Univer­sity's expressed standards of Christ­ian and humanistic values.

Editor's Note: The preceding letter was presented as a petition to University President Rev. Timothy Healy S.J. and was submitted to THE HOYA for publication by its authors.

.. . While Psych Prof Defends It To the Editor:

I would have written sooner on the issue which prompts this letter, but I have been abroad since August. I should also say that, as president of the Georgetown Chapter of the A.A.U.P., I am obliged to address the issue, although I am reluctant to say or do anything which might summon

the forces of virtue -to another defense of the witch-hunt.

Your columns-not to mention the walls and doors of our campus­have given considerable space to those who oppose the appointment of Henry Kissinger to the faculty of the S.F.S. Some of this space has been devoted to vituperative, slander-

Pollster Protests Report To the Editor;

Regarding last week's article con­cerning the on-campus poll on abortion which the GU Right to Life Committee sponsored, I feel that an injustice was committed against both the Committee and the student body as a whole. The Right to Life Committee submitted both the poll results and an analysis of the same. Unfortunately, the editorial staff chose to delete very important findings which were significant to an accurate understanding of the polJ results.

One such deletion was the fact that 12% of the 950 surveyed were not sure or had never thought about when the life of a human being begIns. Interestingly enough, only 3% of this group was unable to deter­mine how to legislate on the abortion issue.

Futhermore, from the biological point of view there is no question as to when the life of a human being begins. Fifty-two per cent affirmed this by stating that life begins "at conception, when the sperm fertilizes the ovum." However, when called upon to justify their decisions, the finding that half the campus believed that "it can't be determined by science" is significant.

The contradictions are self­evident. Denying the fact that the fertilized ovum is a human being and then opting for legislation in favor of abortion appears plausible, but it is erroneous. However, recognizing human life and then condoning abortion is not only deplorable but irrational.

Henceforth, my statement regard­ing "the major discrepancy in the poll results is the students' con­servative stand on the biological issues and their lenient stand with regards to legislation" was insuf­ficiently and unfairly documented. I WOUIA ask that the editorial staff have greater regard for stating the facts as presented.

Sincerely, Sharon Hefferan

President of the G. U. Right to Life Committee

ous, and utterly reckless characterIza­tions to a member of the George. town faculty. The fact that Professor Kissinger is or has been a public figure cannot excuse efforts to smear his name with easy and repugnant epithets; nor can it permit a suspen­sion of every canon of fairness and ciVility. Academic freedom did not win its war with the enemies of unfettered inquiry so that it might surrender itself to their children. And were we to introduce a "morals test" as a condition of academic appoint­ment, those who have been so righteous and agile in their tasteless assaults would hardly be expected to pass. Indeed, they are the disease they seek to cure.

Aside from the clear violation of both the letter and the spirit of A.A. U.P. 's principles of academic freedom, the attacks' on Professor Kissinger take for granted answers to just the sort of questions which tutored rather than common minds examine. The ultimate status of Professor Kissinger's record as Sec­retary of State will be determined by scholars after the relevant course of history" has unfolded. The ultimate status of his soul will be judged by powers rather more formidable than even the spokesmen for S.O.A.K In the interim, the American university might wisely attempt to reclaim its historic mission which was forfeited a decade ago during the celebration of piety. We begin the reclamation by urging our colleagues and students not to give ill to that "complex" named after Jocasta's naughty boy and second husband; by encouraging them to leave purges to those with a whim for it; by asking them to raise the national taste rather than con-secrate it.

Yours sincerely, Daniel N. Robinson

"Inconsistent" Birth Control Policy To The Editor:

The announcement that the ad­ministration will not interfere with Vital Vittles' plans to sell prophylac­tics represents ah increased awareness of student needs and desires on the part of the administration. However, the policy of allowing Vital Vittles to sell this particular birth control device is inconsistent with the policy of refusing to allow the student health center to prescribe or dispense the Pill, the IUD, or the diaphragm to females for birth control purposes. The administration is apparently

only willing to permit an externally funded organization which rents space from the University to dispense birth control devices. Does this mean that the administration will consider renting space to an organization such as Planned Parenthood, so that women, too, can rightfully obtain these birth control devices on cam­pus? Renting space to such an organization would absolve the ad­ministration of all sin sinee it could not be accused of using University funds to dispense birth control devices on campus would not con-

dune sexual activity any more than allowing Vital ViLtles to sell prophy­lactics does. The University" could then cover its rear and provide a needed service at the same time.

In any case, if the administration does not like this proposal, I hope at least it would not interfere with a suggestion that Vital Vittles also selJ foam along with the prophylactics. The two methods combined are much more effective than either one is alone_ --

columns High Cost of Subutban Stetility mac's LQst Sto.nd

The death of New York City has been predicted or PJoclaimed almost weekly for the past two years. Before each trip to my .home in the Bronx, I brace myself f~r the worst, having read regularly of massive layoffs, service reductions, blackouts, spend. ing cuts, corporate departures and middle·class exodus. Yet-.one would be hard·pressed t.9+"Stand at 42nd Street and Lexing_.Avenue on any business. day and remain convinced that N.Y. was dying. The city abounds with life. Even in the burnt·out sections of Bushwich and the South Bronx, the battle to recover is fougbt daily. The reason for N. Y.'s amazing capacity to survive and prevail is its diversity in population, culture and ethnic groups. This source of strength i.s in sharp contrast'to the mass~C'IIlture of the suburbs tl'lat surround it and have spread across our country like .<1-blight ..

What does it matter if one lives iJ Darien, . Cbnnecticut or Bethesda, Maryland? How different are .. :peopJe raised in Long Isl~nd from· thdse raised in Los Angeles, the ·sul¥:trb without a city?

Meeting people from all over" the United States at colJege is an euiting prospect until one discover~ h.ow distressingly similar they all are. (A car trip across America thIS" past

summer confirmed this impressjon.) Most of them are from communities that look similar and are pretty much the same, consistjng of the "little houses on the hilhlide, little qouses made of ticky.tacy" that folksinger Pete Seeger has 'sung about.

A nation of immigrants with profound and exc"iting differences, America has succeeded in eliminating the characteristics that used to distingUish individuals and groups,

As I See It/ Chris Ringwald

and has produced a land of little cultural diversity relative to its enormous size.

One result has been an appalling lack of regional identity possessed by Americans from different areas, often thousnads of miles apart.

Europe makes useful comparison. In a smaller geographical area, people of different areas have identities quite distinct from neigh bors only short distances away. Regions amino

tain their unique cultural heritages, while in the United States we do our utmost to eliminate all such dif·

.ferences. We are becoming a nation of suburban zombies, indoctrinated with a corporate culture whose values and thinking we inculcate through the mass media.

The British playwright, Peter Shaffer, has justifiably critized this country for being too intolerant of eccentricity. We ridicule, resent, and even persecute those outside the norm. (New York's ethnic diversity and population of "weirdos" may be one reason many Ame!icans hate it).

It was our generation that ap· peared destined to free itself from the stifling yoke of conformity, placed on the shoulders of each citizen upon entry into Society. We have failed miserably. The non· conformists of the 1960's and their dwindling number of successors in the 1970's all broke from the norm in the same way, and all ended up being the same in attitudes, behavior and appearances, the later manifestation going so far as to precipitate trends towards bisex· uali ty in fashions and hairstyling.

Those who remained in the mainstream have surpassed their par· ents in embracing conformity. More than one observer has likened the presen t college.age generation to that

of the Eisenhower era, which was alarming in its sameness, and lack of color and imagination. In few places is this conformist ethic more obvious that here at Georgetown. Large groups of students look the same, act the same, and aspire to the same things. Even conversations are the same, and one hears the same responses to the same remarks.

In the modern economy, ef· ficiency is promoted by inter· changeable parts, and things run smoothly when human behaviour is predictable and expected. We are being raised and trained to become the technocrats that we think we need for a society that has reduced people to means of production.

These warning signals are quiet and hard to discern on college· campuses for those unaccustomed to foreseeing the logical extensions of present behaviour. The death knell sounds more clearly in suburban shopping centers and housing devel· opments; in McDonalds and in Holiday Inns; and on the Interstate Highways as well as in the identical cars that roll across them. Our lack of resistance to a mass culture, or nonculture, that is paving over our human identities indicates that we are not listening to or watching the danger signals in our own lives. We should do so with more attention.

Idealism is a drity word. Tell someone you are a Philosophy major and they look at you and ask incredulously, "What are you going to do with that.'~ If that person is an Econ major I respond incredulously, "What are you going to do with a degree in Ouija Board?" Unless your course load reflects a direct relation. ship with career goals people con· sider us to have wasted fpir uears and $20,000. Philosophy, what a mind· less enterprise, not to mention it doesn't usually pay well unless you have penchant for hemlock. Which brings us to Georgetown.

I can remember having a discus· sion withan administrator, who shall remain nameless as well as faceless, about Ken Knisely's philosophicallly sound athletic proposals. Yes, said our administration, I agree philoso. phically but is it practical. AAAGHHH! Philosophy, in an Aris· totelean sense (which always makes sense), implies action, right action as opposed to WRONG action. Ethical nihilism aside, doing something for

or later it all catches up and comes tumbling down (as long as we all persist in trying to set things right).

We are at a crossroads.

Tuition is likely to go up from anywhere between $350 to $500 next year. And what about the following year? A high level adminis· trator told the HOY A, "I wouldn't want to be a student and be paying tuition." Georgetown is lower in price than our chief rivals, but we're getting damned close. And once a Georgetown stUdent gets so much less than students gets so much less than students at these other schools, we're going to be priced right out of the market. At least there won't be a parking problem.

So what ought to do? Whether this is a Kantian "ought" or not doesn't matter (deontological gibber· ish). It used to be that a Jesuit Education meant something more than jus a nice liberal arts education for rich catholic kids.

Even the Corp., profit motive and

PQnning Fot Dirt/ mark mcAd~ms

The Golden Fleece the sake of its rightness is very practical. If it is not practically, than its not Philosophically or morally right because if we continue to take shor cuts it sooner or later is going to catch up with us. Instant Karma? Sooner or later our refusal to take Knisely's proposals seriously and others like it will destroy George· town University.

all, is hesitant to move into areas they should be. The Pub, Cafe, and Bookstore are areas that students at other Universities have successfully run, and cheaply. Last year when the Corp. said they were looking into the Pub, Cafe, anas a possible enterprise everyone ran for cover, including the Corp. They feared retribution form individuals in the Pub, but there is no reason why something satisfactory for both parties couldn't be worked out. The Corp would have to change in structure, competant experts would have to be hired, but the Corp. executives would still have final overview and the power to hire and fire.

by Mark McAdams As we come to the end of another

semester let us give pause and reflect upon those that have enriched our lives with more than their fair share of ripoffs and petty thieveries. In this vein the HOY A would like to present the nominations for the newly formed HOY A Golden Fleece aaw· ard. It is our belief that those who can successfully ripoff students at will are a special breed and deserve adequate recognition. Send all votes (we'll accept write ins) to the HOYA, box 938 Hoya Station. All nomina· tions must be in no later than Jan~ary 27, 1978.

Nominations Vice President for Administrative Services, Dan Alto· bello

Dan is the only man we know who can run a large University worth close to 31 million dollars with only a B.A. degree in English. Way to go

Dan. He ~urprises us every year? take the reported utility surplus that turned into the utility deficit. I be everyone was surprised to find out there was a water bill to pay, including Dan. Riggs Bank

They somehow convinced Univer· sity Treasurer, George Houston that banks should start holding up studen s; thus we have lines extending from Ryan Administration down to M street because "Riggs Pigs" as they are affectionately called by their patrons won't open up an extra window.

An amazing individual who got into Georgetown Law School via special permission from the Presi· dent. Towarrant such special atten· tion, Mr Meng must be a rare talent indeed, when it comes to licking stamps and filing useless memoranda. Frank X. Rienzo

Made Georgetown sports what it is today. The crew team is sending a special greeting to Mr. Rienzo's home thanking him for his kind support last year when he gave them enough money to buy an oar. Mr. Rienzo, with a smile on his face, demolished all sports in an effort to build up track and basketball's administrative costs. It is rumored that Mr. Rienzo wants to make "administrative costs" (they account for half the depart· ment's budget) into a division om team.

Everyone know how popular track is and besides we need it for prestige. What do we want to be known as, a school of fine academic standing or a school that piddles its money away on a useless track team that no one sees except at the bank. Mary Parrish

For somehow keeping her job this long even though the Pub is in a state

of financial chaos, Mary deserves a warm round of applause and beer (warm beer being a major factor in the Pub's economic downfall last year). lVain Campus Finance Com· mittee

Tuition is going up $400 next year to pay for a new shipment of three ring binders for the students who like to roam around campus with large financial statements. Hon· orable mentions should go to Rich Taylor for even getting himself on the committee. Rich, did you ever hear of a subcommittee meeting: Honorable Mentionss,

Bill Schuerman: For cOhvincing your superiors that you work.

Jeff Fogelson For not con· vincing your superiors that you work and yet retaining your job.

Georgetown's Board of Direct· ors% For bieng so well informed as to what goes on here at GU.

Everyone should agree that the Athletic Department obviously needs to be looked into even if you don't agree with Knisely's proposals. The mere fact that the athletic depart· ment lost the forms that would have allowed our successful women's vol· leyball team to go to the EAIA W playoffs shows that something is amiss. Why do administrative costs account for more than half the expenditures for our athletic depart· ment when they can't even keep track of a simple form? The last time something like this happened was four years ago when the Develop. ment Office lost a building permit, and look what happend to the Development Office last year. Sooner

Philosophical inquiry .leads us to" ask these questions. Students should have more control of areas that directly affect them because we pay over 80% of every single University expenditure. We are paying for administrators to wash maybe $10,000 worth of beer a month down the drain because no one bothered to check the cooling system. This insant insanity has to stop.

featules Henry and Me liThe High Frontier"- Why?

by Greg Kitsock If Nixon had his Watergate, Dean

Krogh has his SOAK (which may explain why one is considered all washed up and the other wet behind the ears). But one wonders whether SOAK would be so inclined to hurl brickbats if they knew of the blood, toil, tears and sweat shed by the good dean every time he arranges one of Kissinger's lectures.

It is 8:00 on the day of Sir Oracle's latest talk and Krogh, an early bird as usual, is in the bathroom glo.coating his teeth and polishing his hair. Donning his jogging suit, the dean legs it to campus, hotly pursued by large dogs and a patrol car whose occupants have mistaken him for a purse snatcher_

Meanwhile, sign-up has begun in Krogh's office. The secletary happily begins asking all who enter for their names and addresses, oblivious to the fact some might have other business in the Dean's office than hearing the Big K. By 9:15, she has signed up the cleaning woman, the delivery man, and 2 M Street bums who wandered in looking for a handout.

Krogh jogs in, barely in time for the day's first appointment. Meeting with representatives of the media, the dean hammers out his position on Kissinger, dispelling malicious rumors. No, he insists, it is not true that because of Kissinger's accent, Dean Herzberg may mistake his spring semester seminar for a grad language course and try to cancel it because of low enrollment.

As for charges that the SFS hired Dr. K solely as a publicity stunt, sheer balderdash. Incidentally, the Foreign Service School had nothing to do with the flashing pink and green neon signs reading "Kissinger a Tap" they just erected over the CSIS building_

Lastly, Krogh bristles at rumors that Kissinger's talks are a mere rehash of old Newsweek interviews.

Next semester, notes the dean, Dr. K. will give the Interdependence Soliloquoy, a talk so candid and chockfull of high administrative secrets that absolutely no one will be admitted. The CSIS has scheduled the talk for Feb. 30, although Kissinger's prior appointments may force its postponement until April 31-

The interview is interrupted by a knock at the door. Answering it, Krogh greets GU's newest visiting professor, Dr. Heinz Himmler· Wolfmauler. The good doctor will occupy the School's Baader·Meinhof chair in creative diplomacy, recently established by a $500,000 grant from kindly German leftists.

Krogh is startled when several of Dr_ Wolfmauler's colleagues enter the room, dressed in khaki uniforms, ski mask and cartridge belts. Before the dean can comment on the impro­priety of their attire, the group binds him and spirits him away to the getaway vehicle.

"Tell Buchwald if he says 'I told you so' he will not be welcome in my office in the future," mumbles Krogh' to his secretary on the way out.

Later, in a telephone interview from the kidnapper's hideout, Krogh explains his position: "We can't exclude a group because of their political beliefs, American univer­sities should be in contact with all and exposed to all of the world, including societies at different stages of development. By the way, unless the Vniv. comes up with $3 million and plane fare to Algeria, these fellows are going to blow my skull off."

Nevertheless, the dean receives Univ.-wide support. Healy, before jetting off on an important fund· raising drive to the'Tlingue Indians in'

Central Paraguay, declares that Dean Krogh is definitely underpriced. Students gather financial aid records and other relevant documents in an effort to convince the abductors of the fundamental cheapness of Georgetown _ Finally, the terrorists relent. They release Krogh in return for a handful of Foreign Service School ties, which they try to hang themselves with in a bid to gain international sympathy.

Krogh, meanwhile, hastens back to the SFS in time for the tail end of Kissinger's learned discourse. The question and answer period is about to begin. Tomorrow's diplomats and statesmen are about to utilize a unique opportunity to draw on Kissinger's vast reservoir of exper· . , . lence.

The cleaning woman inquires if he wants his wastebasket emptied. The delivery man asks him to sign for a package_ The M Street bums muster their courage and ask the former Secretary of State if he has any spare change.

by PUBLIUS You have to hand it to Georgetown

UniVersity. The place is undergoing fiscal decay, professors in formerly strong departments are going the way of all flesh, and place seems to be going to hell in a hat. Educators the world over are wondering why Johnny can't read, why SAT's are dropping and why we can't yet figure out how to lick the common cold. So as its contribution to the sum of human knowledge, G.V_ is offering a course next semester in "The High Frontier," a three credit course dealing with the establishment of human colonies in space: This ranks right up there with courses in the anatomy of the soap opera, the influence of Athlete's Foot fungus on famed amirchists, or becoming a Spelunker for fun and profit.

The idea of colonies in space seems to have gotten a dual liff recently from the efforts of the members of the L·5 Society and by the publication earlier this year of a book on the topic by Professor G.K. O'Neill. Despite the fact that we may soon see ads drumming up support for the L·5 idea on Times Square, the entire concept was recently deemed a "nutty fantasy" by Senator William Proxmire. Smart man, Proxmire.

, For .those unfamiliar with this

Alice In Wonderlan'd program, L-5 is a mathematically precise point bet· ween the earth and the moon where the so-called colonies are to be set up. Precisely what is to be done up there other than gather energy and engage in high altitude kkinky tricks is uncertain.

Of course, Georgetown has de­cided that there is some metaphysical or other significance in this project which warrants the establishment of a course on the subject. Without doubt, this fits in well with the already established programs at G.U. Of course, "The High Frontier" will be taught as part of the curriculum of the Department of Astronomy. Oops, there is no such department. Perhaps the Department of Astro· physics? Oops again. Maybe the Department of Engineering? Dreimal oops! But never underestimate the ability of Georgetown to beat the bushes when an idea is at stake. The result is that the course co-ordinator will be coming to us from the space-related field of theology. A prime mover behind the course is a Russian Area Studies P.h.D. No doubt the technical areas of space coloniza­tion will be illuminated every time they open their mouths.

It is all too typical of an , institution that feels it can still turn

out the Rennaisance man (seen a want ad for one recently?) to believe that a course in an area such as this can be taught by a priest, a' Sovietologist and assorted lepers. Will this course prepare young Hoyas to go out and sign up for a spot on the next available Shuttle to L-5? Doubt­ful. Perhaps it will cause them to go out and lobby Congress to spend ever increasing sums of money in the project? Good grief, I hope not, as this is not a valid goal of education ("Dear Congressman, if I might say so, the study of Descartes will suffer mightily unless you increase funding next fiscal year for the 'I Think Therefore I am' retreat on Mars_ .. ") Will it cause there to be a greater understanding of the benefits of space exploration?' Its a mighty circuitous way around it if that's what they're after.

In short, Prox,ire has a point. Naturally, the High Frontiersmen argue that they laughed at Columbus. True enough, but they laughed at the fellow who created Goober Jelly as well_ Perhaps once G.D. finds ellough money to adequately equip its Library, pay its professors decent wages and rescue its physical plallt from the wrecking ball, maybe we can . afford the lUXUry of indulging in this nutty fantasy.

As the crowd exits, one student snorts in disgust that the audience might have asked more intelligent questions. After ali, if those bums had done their homework, they would have known that a man who gets $10,000 for four lectures, has a lucrative contract with NBC and has now landed another cushy job with USC to boot, probably never carries anything smaller than a C·note.

However, ,the evening does not prove to be a total loss for Krogh. Kissinger promises that if he is ever restored to his rightful throne, he will reward the SFS Dean with his most cherished dream-an ambas­sadorship, to the emerging 3rd World Nation of Lower Framganisten.

Reintjes Is The Ugliest

Kissinger says that at the earliest opportunity, he will introduce Krogh to the country's enigmatiC leader Idiot Amino, who is rumored to have eaten five of the last six US envoys sent there.

"I-l'm overwhelmed," sputters Krogh, pale and shaken. "Und iff all yorks out," intones Kissinger, "meb­be in, five years ve send him to a country mit indoor plumbin ."

alts & leiSUles A Merry-Sounding Christmas Liszt

Just in case Christmas eve rolls around and you haven't found a present for your parents, this column might just come in handy.

Verdi's II Trovatore could easily stand as the definition of musical genius, from tender duets to the Anvil Chorus, this is opera! No matter that no one can understand the libretto. The new London record­ing of this opera (OSA-13124) is without peer. With Joan Sutherland singing at top form, Luciano Pavarotti at top form plus, Marilyn Horne putting on a vocal demon­stration that is hard to believe (it is that good) and Ingvar Wixell and Nicholai Ghiaurov turning in stellar performances, a reviewer runs out of superlatives quickly. Richard Bonynge's conducting is improving but it isn't first rate yet. If your parents love opera and you love your parents, get them this one!

doesn't it may well be the last thing he plays before his fingers freeze up. These lengthy and treacherous works are challenge to any pianist. Lazar Berman (one of the best things to come out of Russia since revolution and vodka) plays these works with a strength and clarity of vision that is extraordinary (DGG 2709-076). Ber­man manages to infuse every note with his own perception of the work; every phrase fits into his scheme­and Liszt's-and yet manages to glow with the fire of passion and impro­visation. One can scarcely stand all of this intensity, but the playing is mag­nificent. Not unflawed, mind you, but positively brilliant from opening note to last. Solo piano playing like this you are not likely to hear again for.!l: long, long time.

formance than that recently released under the baton of Alain Lombard (RCA FRL4-2493) you are not likely to find. Monserrat Caballe's Marguerite is the. real "draw" here, her performance is stunning bel­canto in every respect. Giacomo Aragall's Faust is suave and emotive, and although' Paul Plishka's Me­phistopheles does not have a boom­ing basso voice, Plishka is an elegant and scene·stealing demon. Although the chorus sounds a bit thin, it sings well. This electrifying performance proves that there is life in this old war horse yet!

requires an odd interplay of kinetic energy and introspection, verve and reflection_ Both Richter and Kleiber understand this, and the results are pleasing. Not your typical Dvorak, but most enjoyable_ .

Just in case you are still in the Verdi market after the review of Trovatore that opened this piece, there are two others out this month you ought to be aware of. The La Scala production of Simon Boc­canegra (DGG 2709-071) is excel­lent. The performances of Pierro Cappuccilli and Nicholai Ghiaurov are first rate, and I can't say enough good things about the two Joses, Van Dam and Carrerras. Claudio Ab­bodo's conception of the work is superb; he hits the right pace and evokes the right mood consistently. The Scala orchestra sounds pretty good as well! The other Verdi is a re-mastering of a 1959 recording of La Forza Del Destino (London OSA-13122) which really seems to come to us from long ago. Lead

soprano here is Zinka Milanov (who began her Met career in 1937!), who took the title "dramatic soprano" to considerable extremes. This approach is not in vogue today (Thank God). Tenor Giuseppe diStefano had squan­dered most of his voice by the time this disc was cut and Leonard Warren, who literally dropped dead in 1960 singing the part he warbles here, doesn't seem too comfortable in the higher ranges. All of this under the baton of Fernando Previtali, it is an important document though cer­tainly not my first choice for a Forza.

At the age of 90 Artur Rubenstein can no longer tickle the ivories like he used to. This does not make him any lesser a pianist however, for as his recent recording of the Beethoven Sonata No. 3 and the Schumann Fantasiestuc/ze (RCA ARLI-2397) show, wisdom and the insight of experience are ample substitutes for an ability to dash off keyboard runs

like Jerry Lee Lewis. Rubenstein's feather-light touch and total musi­cianship make this a record worth getting.

Slowly the works of Ernest Bloch are coming to be known to concert­goers. With a little poetic license he could be referred to as the Jewish Bartok, but such a description really does not do justice to Bloch's inventiveness. His Sacred Service (Angel S-37305) is a musical setting of the key parts of the Sabbath Service. It is, however, more than a liturgical composition despite the work's close kinship with cantorial music_ The piece is remarkable both for its broad and expansive musical ideas and for splendidly working within a framework unknown to the mass of the population. The Utah Symphony Orchestra plays well and Maurice Abravanel's conducting is a delight. Baritone Douglas Lawrence is a bit of a disappointment. Finally, a record for Chanukah, not Christ­mas giving!

The pianist who undertakes to record Franz Liszt's Annes de Peierinage better damn well know what he is doing, because if he

Gounod's Faust is one of the two best-loved French operas in the world; grand to the point of grandiose, lush to the point of being suffocating_ However, it is impossible not to acknowledge the over­whelming beauty of this opera when its performed well. A better per-

It is hard to get a handle on Dvorak's Piano Concerto, both for the listener and for the pianist. Despite the fact that the pianist's role is distinctly down played in this piece, Angel Records (S-37269) has teamed Sviatoslav Richter-one of the great keyboard virtuosos-with Carlos Kleiber-the most exciting young one. Although some purists might be a bit squeamish about the results, this is a performance that generates excitement_ The piece itself

by Kenneth Hafertepe The most striking thing about

JUles Feiffer's Hold Me!, which is at Ford's Theater through December 18, is not so much the play itself as the response it elicits from the audience.

scious laughter.

"I can always tell when a friend will betray me moments before I put my trust in them," laments one character. "For me, getting out of bed in the morning is an act of false confidence."

more finicky than Morris the Cat, not growing despite ample water, plant food or even love, another character suggests: Have you tried money? Miss Cellario proceeds to offer her plant increasingly large denominations of cash, with spec­tacular results. Observes her friend, "Your plant has an excellent mind for business."

r ••• : .•••

Based on Mr. Feiffer's weekly comic strip in The Village Voice, the production is not a comedy in the traditional, one-pratfall-leads-to-an­other scheme of things. Rather, the production strings together sever­al dozen of Mr. Feiffer's observations on relationships in an urban environ­ment.

Almost every vignette deals with the mundane existence in which we try to find meaning and support through each other. Bernard, a continuing character portrayed quite capably by William Lodge, is so insecure that he leaves a trail of breadcrumbs so he can find his way home after a date.

If this does not sound funny, it also does not leave audiences rolling in the aisles. This would be more of a problem if it were not intentional, for Hold Me! is carried along not by booming (and hollow) horselaughs, but by slightly startled and self-eon-

True to life, though, absurdity does not stop on a person-to-person level. Mr_ Feiffer's characters talk to plants and to God. Of the two, plants seem more responsive.

When Maria Cellario's plant proves

God is not so easily bribed, however. In "Hello God," Rhoda Gemignani plays a woman who has been told that her husband's life is no longer in the doctor's hands. "Listen, God," she says, in the midst of a long monologue "am I boring you?" Ms. Gemignani brings to her chara.:;ters an amiable chattiness and openness.

Ray Stewart stands out in the cast, as the paranoid baseball pitcher,

the man who dances his way through life like Fred Astaire, and the man whose family judges Qim by the brands of producers that he uses. Mr_

Stewart can be a pillar of strength or end of the first act, she proclaims a sea of insecurity, as the role that "You can't fire a dancer." requires both of these and more, as he receives a cryptic message from a washing machine.

Interspersed among these happen­ings are the antics of Mr. Feiffer's dancer, nimbly drawn by Britt Swanson. Her title for her swan song,. "A Dance to Getting on With It," says it all. Ms_ Swanson, her red hair in a pony-tail, projects a dogged determination to press on. As she sticks defiantly to the stage near the

It is curiously appropriate that Hold Me! overlaps in its Washington run with the exhibit of drawings and watercolors by Raphael Soyer at the National Collection of Fine Arts. Mr. Soyer's study of urban faces reflect both melancholia and the eternal resiliency of the human spirit. Similarly, Mr. Feiffer's characters love and lose, laugh and cry, and hold on for dear life.

The Campus Cinema The Sting Robert Redford, Paul Newman Fri. & Sat. LA-6, '8 pm.

When a movie wins the Academy A ward for the Best Picture of the Year, it is difficult to find anything bad to say about it. The Siring is a modern classic of cinemagraphic entertainment. Newman and Redford as a team bring forth a certain energy and exuberance tllat few other acting

combinations have matched. As two con-men they use their best talents to outwit the top of the line gangster at his own game with the prize being a huge sum of money. Their cleverness and antics thrill the audience and keep the adventure flawless. For sound and extremely good entertainment, The Sting is the movie to see.

An Apology Due to a rather unfortunate

editing mistake, Mehrdad Abi­dari's review of the Washington Bach Consort appears to suggest that the Consort pays "little attention to the specific demands of the Bach scores, translating all the music into its own grandiose romantic language: huge orches­tras, large choruses ... and the like. "

Actually, Mr. Abidari's original copy praised the Consort for its delicate treatment of the score and its use of replica instruments. Also, the programme began with Brandenburg Concerto no. 5, not no. 6 as was indicated.

Our apologies to the Consort's director, J. Reilly Lewis, and to Mr. Abidari for muddling his review_

Centre in the championship game of the Tip-Off Tournament, giving Lefty Driesell's Maryland Terrapins area bragging rights for at least one more season. Even so, John Thompson's men had their moments. Clockwise from upper left, Georgetown's new all-time scoring leader Derrick Jackson drives past tournament MVP Billy Bryant (no. 11) as Ed Hopkins looks on; an airborne Mike Riley gets set to dish out another assist past the Terps' Greg Manning; Former scoring champ Jon Smith (now part time assistant coach), the injured Lonnie Duren, Coach Thompson, and Assistant Bill Stein (I.r) have a meeting of the minds; John Duren en route to a two-pointer past Bryant; Hopkins saves one.

Terps Just Too Much (continued from p.12)

was Georgetown 22, Maryland 16, Shelton 14.

Yet this one was far from over. Aided by a change in the defensive alignment, Maryland put the stronger Larry Gibson on Shelton, and more fully combined offensive effort, with tournament MVP Bill Bryant, JoJo Hunter and King doing most of the damage.

The Terps then clawed and scratched their way back to almost even. And when the Hoyas, clutching onto a one·point lead, forced up an errant shot with just under one minute to play in the half, the Terps had the chance to go ahead for the first time since the opening minutes. Waiting until there was but one tick on the clock, corner-shooter JoJu Hunter, on a 20 ft. [mlls·eye, erased both a Hoya lead and perhaps the finest of halves ever played by a Georgetown team. At the buzzer it , was Maryland, 43·42.

Not until, with 57· seconds left, and the score at 89-85 Terps, did Georgetown finally surrender uncon· ditional victory to number 13·ranked Maryland. Given the chance to close the gap to just a bucket, center Ed

into a heartbreaking loss. Yet, . as a not unhappy Coach

Thompson, after watching a grown· up Georgetown team-pitifully poor in years past, now able to play with the bigger boys on the block,

Still, there was one half of basketball to be played, and nothing less than a Terrapin cheerleader could seduce anyone away from this battle. Playing a me first, now you game, slowly, ever' so slowly, the exchange of baskets began to ring in Maryland's favor. While the first half, despite the score, was Georgetown, Georgetown and Georgetown again, the Terps had been here before. Not anyone basket gave the feeling away, but you could sense it, Maryland had the killer instinct of a big-time team. Still, the big, bad boys from the north couldn't shake the pesky Hoyas. When Derrick Jackson had to sit down for a good ten munutes due to foul trouble, Duren, Riley and Martin were there to pick up the slack. When all seemed lost for the Hoyas, down four, now six, now seven points with but minutes remaining, it wasn't.

Maryland's Mike Davis (left) wasn't invited to Hopkins-Shelton reo bounding lesson.

Hopkins charged into the lant., drawing his fifth foul and turning the ball over to Maryland.

So, 'what could have been t.heir sweetest victory ever, turned sarlly

remarked, "This loss tonight doesn't hurl us, except tonight. The name of this ballgame is season, and now there's nothing to look forward to but getting better."

Heavy Play in Co-ed Volleyball by Ed O'Neill

Intramural action has been hot and heavy in the last two weeks witil the league finals and playoffs taking place in Co·Ed Volleyball in addition to the start of the regular soccer season.

In Volleyball, 'leagues A and E both finished the regular season with teams tied for their respective league finals. In league A, Adele's Vices sashayed themselves to a 5-1 record only to lose, two games to one, to a powerful Washington Club. League E action saw the ViIlyballers roll over Stars and Spikes, also by a 2·1 score.

Playoff action began with B champs, God's Chosen, getting by Villyballers by a prayer. The force was not with 0 champs, Vader's Raiders, as C champs, Chic, gave them the cold shoulder 2-0. In the second round, A champs, Washington

Club, having gotten a bye in the firsl round, blasphemed God's Chosen 2-1. In the final, Washington Club vetoed Chic's hopes by shutLing Litem out 2-0 [or the overall championship.

The Pearhandler's laughed at the Court Jesters, manhandling them 2-1 to grab the Grad/FaculLy (Swff lea· gue championship.

The adwnt of cold weather heralded the kick·off of lhe soccer season.

Only OI1f' ganlP has been played in the Women's Dorm and Independent Division. The sisters of Second New South sneaked two by the Sirens of Fourth New South, holding them scoreless.

In Men's Independent A play, The Kamikaze Kids dive bombed last year's champs, The Mooses, 2-1. TIll' Spartans got stuck by STX 1·0 in a well fought game, and Charles

Blockley ran over Arnold's Dog 5·2. Independent B action saw Snap.On-Tools nail a 1·0 loss on Chic. Meanwhile Washington Club exterminated The Hats 2-l.

In the Grad/Faculty/and Law Division, Summary Justice came up all wet as Water slipped by them 1·0. Water came up smiling in their secondcontest by swamping the Re­mainder Men 2-0. The Gold Caps derense melted under the Flutter­blasls' attack 1·0, and Big Foot stomped on the Oarmongers 4-0. After losing their first case, Summary

'Justice blinded the hapless Oar­mongers 3·0. Despite a tight defense, Balls V bounced in four goals against Suzanne Hawkins while holding them scoreless, and in a second match, Balls V banged two more scores past the Remainder Men to remain unbeaten.

Maddogs Accept Challenge by Bob Krasne and

Kevin Halp in By closing out the regular

season with an eight of ten effort, the Maddogs wind up 43·15, a mark just shy of 75%. None· the·less, the Maddogs have been challenged by Arnold's Dog Enter. prises (John Mousseau and Mike Weisberger) to produce again. Never running from a challenge, we present the battle of the do~s.

Liberty Bowl-December 19

While Nebraska had a hard time with Oklahoma, North Caro· lina is not in the same class. The physical Cornhuskers should pre· vail.

The Maddogs Pick: Nebraska 24, North Carolina 20.

Arnold's Dog: North Carolina 28, Nebraska 21.

Hall of Fame-December 22

Minnesota will put an unsavory end to the Terps' mediocre season. From the looks of this game, neither team should be in a bowl.

The Maddogs Pick: Minnesota 14, Maryland 10.

. Arnold's Dog: Minnesota 19, Maryland 15.

Fiesta Bowl-December 23

This figures to be quite a contest. Arizona State is, for all practical purposes, playing at home. Tom Osborne can tell how tough they can be. None the less, Joe Paterno has a solid squad, and should win in a squeaker.

The Maddogs Pick: Penn State 21, Arizona State 20.

Arnold's Dog: Penn State 20, Arizona State 12.

Gator Bowl-December 30

Clemson has a good team, as they showed Notre Dame earlier in the season, but Pitt, with Matt Cavanaugh at the controls, is better. The Panthers will prevaiL

The Maddogs Pick: Pitt 21, Clemson 14.

Arnold's Dog: Pitt 21, Clemson' 10.

Peach Bowl-December 31

The Wolfpack has an inferior record, and they play in a weaker

conference, at, least in football. The Cyclones bounced back from their early loss to the Hawkeyes to play tough.

The Maddogs Pick: Iowa State 21, North Carolina State 17.

Arnold's Dog: North Carolina' State 10, Iowa State 7.

Bluebonnet Bowl-December 31 Neither the Aggies nor the

Trojans played as well as expected in 1977. Both teams have plenty of talent, so this could be an interesting game. Playing In Texas may help A&M feel at home.

The Maddogs Pick: Texas A&M 28, USC 27.

Arnold's Dog: USC 27, Texas A&M 19

The Sugar Bowl

As long as Bear Bryant remem· bers to take his hat off while indoors, his fortune may be good. Watch for 'Barna backs to work the Buckeyes. This should be a good game.

The Maddogs Pick: Alabama 20 Ohio State 17.

Arnold's Dog: Alabama 21, Ohio'State 12.

The Cotton Bowl

This is the game, for the national championship- hangs in the balance. The Irish will need more than luck to stop Campbell and the potent Texas attack. Ross Browner and Willie Fry will be in combat with the young Longhorn offensive line all day, and may prov'ide the defense the Irish need

However, remember that Texas also has a solid defense, and the Notre Dame offense isn't as powerful as Texas.' Also, there is Russell Erxleben on the Texas bench.

The Maddogs Pick: Texas 24, Notre Dame 20.

Arnold's Dog: Notre Dame 16, Texas 13.

The Rose Bowl

The Grandaddy of all bowls is hurtin' this year. Michigan may finally adapt to the natural turf in

Pasadena, while Washington may still be in shock that they are actually involved.

The MaddoQs Pick: Michigan 28, Washington 20.

Arnolds Dog: Michigan 24, Washington 12.

The Orarl!JeBowl

The transitive' law of football inequalities says that the Razor· backs will, win (Texas beat Arkan· sas 13-9, & Oklahoma 13.6), and to disprove this, the Sooners will haVe to play their best. Cowins powers the Hogs, but the Sooners, with their'stable of stars, have the rushing edge. If it gets down to a battle of toes, Steve Little is a good as anyone, but Ewe von Schamann can handle pressure, too. Just ask Woody. This should be one of the most evenly matched, and best games.

The Maddogs Pick: Oklahoma 17, Arkansas 16.

'Arnold's Dog: Oklahoma 29, Arkansas 21.

Lang: NCAA Mishandled Meet by David Dailey

"I don't believe that the race ever should have been run on the particular course that it was."

Such was the assessment of Georgetown cross country coach Joe Lang after his team finished a dismal 24th out of 30 schools in the 39th annual NCAA cross country cham· pionships at Washington State Uni· versity two weeks ago,

"We had just about every possible disadvantage," lamented Lang, "that we could have received with regard to our poll positions, the weather, and the slickness of the track."

Georgetown's poll pOSitions for the race were on an uphill incline, explained Lang, while most of the other schools were running on level ground.

The 'below·freezing Northwest temperatures did not help the Hoyas' cause either, as they could only

muster a total of 513 team points at the finish.

The 10,000 meter race, run despite a four.degree wind chill factor, was one of the most poorlv run races in the history of the Championship Meet. There were two false starts before the race even got underway, which is nearly unheard of in championship competition.

Georgetown's Jim Peterson, reo cently named an All·American for the third time in his career, was the Hoyas' top finisher at 37th place, coming in with a time of 29:57.9.

Freshman Kevin Byrne was next in line for the Hoyas, running in 30:45.7 time, which was good enough to earn him 98th place for the competition. There were 280 runners in alL

federal communications Commission said that in the past the University had not kept a watch full eye on GTB, which the fee said lead to a number of obscenity violations. In the Spring Semester of 1976, WGTB was closed down for 60 days to reorganize, in attempt to secure the station's license which was allegedly in jeopardy. Representing Father Healy, Assistant to the President Charles Meng supported GTB saying "Bob (Uttenweiler) is acting under the order given to him-which he must obey."

Athletic Director Frank Rienzo said that he couldn't understand why WGTB wanted to replace Chvotkin. "He (Chvotkin) has been the voice of the Hoyas for five years. He's part of the program 'through his loyalty and participation. "

A GTE board member said, "How can we turn over the programing to a bunch of basketball people?" An· other board member said that GTB has to protect its editorial integrity, referring to Ch vat kin 's alleged close

association with the Athletic Depart­ment.

Uttenweiler told the HOYA that potential replacement Trifari got Hoyas Unlimited to pledge $600 and an additional $600 from outside sources to pay for all line charges incurred in coverning the games (for away games. Broadcast signals are sent over telephone lines to WWGTB's main controlboard).

Uttenweiler says that he can understand the Athletic Depart· ment's feelings but claims that they are mistaken in their belief that they will get unfair coverage, without Chvotkin pointing to Trifari's close association with Georgetown and the basketball program. But, he says, Trifari works for GTB (making him directly responsible to Uttenweiler) and has proven himself to be well acquainted with non·commercial pro­gramming.

Rienzo said that a propo~ed compromise from Uttenweiler to split the halves between Chvotkin and Trifari was unacceptable.

ditions. He finished 18 seconds ahead of his nearest opponent, John Treacy of Providence College, breaking the tape in 28:33.5.

Despite the adverse conditions, Lang emphasized that "Our runners ran a gutsy race, which was parti· cularly pleasing to me. They never quit."

With the cross country season behind now, the Hoya harriers are prepping for the upcoming start of the Indoor Track Season, which will kick off tomorrow when Georgetown travels to the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland for the Navy Invitational Meet.

Hoyas Topped by Terps in Tip-Off Return for 50-33 Win

by Joel Szabat The basketball squad settled down

from its dramatic Captial Center affair against Maryland with a sin­gularly unimpressive 50-33 victory over Dickinson College Wednesday night at McDonough. The Hoyas' eighth win in as many attempts against their Carlisle, Pennsylvania rivals was a dull mis-match in which the complete lack of consistent play on the court was rivaled only by the non-responsiveness of the less-than­capacity crowd_

What a difference two days can make. The Hoyas, who teamed up with the Terrapins last Monday to show off the most exciting brand of college basketball, took the occasion of the Wednesday affair to illuminate the most mundane.

It was a demonstration for which the Hoyas could not be entirely held '" to blame.

Sky Shelton Breaks Wrist; Out 3 Weeks In Monday night's thriller vs.

Maryland at the Capital Centre, sophomore forward Craig "Big Sky" Shelton picked up 25 points and a game -high ten rebounds_

He also picked up a broken wrist. With 7 :43 remaining to play in

the Tip-Off Championship game, Shelton collided with Terrapin JoJo Hunter, suffering fractured navicular bone in his right(non-shooting) wrist.

The wrist has been placed in a cast, and Shelton is expected to- miss two to three weeks of play.

The injury was not immediately noticeable to the 6'7" frontliner, and was not diagnosed until Tuesday evening after practice, whep. X-rays were taken after Shelton complained of discomfort.

After the collision with Hunter, who left the game with a bruised thumb, Shelton remained in the contest for the final seven-and-a-half minutes of play, scoring two of his 25 points.

Lose 91-87 In a Capital

Thriller by Michael Perlmuter

For the goings on at the Landover Arena earlier this week, the Tip-off Tournament seems to be a rather unassuming name. Perhaps next year, the teams involved might try: 1) the Cardiac Classic, or 2) The Skyways Spectacle or even 3) Lefty Thomp­son's Two-Rim Circus. Maybe then, college basketball could beg, borrow or steal more folks (only 6,500 showed up) into seeing its finest product-gift-wrapped.

Nary a fan of the rather sparse but loud throng could compJain that what they witnessed wasn't a pro­verbial "see-saw barnburnin' classic" as the Georgetown Hoyas finally ran outta time, 91-87, at the hands . (or should it be scales) of the Maryland Terrapins Monday night at the Capital Centre.

game, the Hoyas settled, for the most part, to effecting an outside shooting game, playing into the hands of Dickinson's stall.

Who'S to Cover the Hayas 7 "That's the kind of person Caig

is," said Coach John Thompson following his team's Wednesday-night win over Dickinson College at Mc­Donough. "He plays with such intensity_ .. that's why he's great."

With the majority of fans barely resettled in their seats, after a somewhat hum-drum initial con­solation Navy victory over American 60-45, the "Sky" ve"rsus "The King" shoot'em-out showdown began. Maryland's Freshman forward Albert King, the darling of the media's rantings and the spotlight of the Terp's ravings drew first blood on a not-so majestic drive that not only collected him the game's first points, but also the game's first charging foul. Yet, keeping THE matchup in limbo, Craig "Sky" Shelton count· ered for the Hoyas with a back­board-slashing, "all­upside-your-head" two· fisted slam­dunk knotting the game.

But the outclassed Red Devils could not delay the inevitable for­ever. Dennis Crawford and Jeff Cohen (who tallied all 9 of his pOints in the game's first 9 minutes) kept the Keystone Staters to within 14-13 midway through the first half, but OU's scrappy Mike Riley sparked a wake-up rally with a sterling steal and a pair of passes that Derrick Jackson turned into back-to·back layups as the Hoyas opened up a 24-13 lead_

Dickinson never threatened again, and GU escaped with an easy, if not enjoyable, triumph, bringing their record to 2-L

Commenting on the game's slow pace, in which Georgetown both scored and gave up fewer points than in any game last season, Coach John Thompson said that Dickinson "­Obviously was not suited to a fast game." He attributed the low score to the Red Devi!'s success in "forcing us to shoot over the top of the zone_"

Questioned as to whether the absence of Shelton and the foot injuries of Mike Frazier and Tom Scates hurt the Hoyas under the boards, Thompson replied, "Front· line size doesn't mean a damn thing-it's how big the people play."

He conceded however, that "with­out Craig we don't have much of a board game."

HOY A basketball in the comfort of their own rooms will have to get a long string and an orange juice can because WGTB, Georgetown's radio station, will not be airing the games at least temporarily.

Hapless Hoyas who turned their FM dials to 90.1 (WGTB's frequen­cy) earlier this week to hear the tip off tournament may heard to their dismay space age jazz because the station management and the athletic· department could not reach an accord over a dispute concerning the selection of an announcer.

Back in July, WGTB management began working on a proposal that, if implemented, would have replaced Rich Chvotkin, the voice of the Hoyas for the last few years, with GTB Stoff member Ray Trifari. Trifari, a GU graduate and a director of Hoyas Unlimited (G'town's Alum­ni fund raisers for athletics) broad­cast the games along with several other Georgetown students and ad­ministrators, back in the early seventies.

The donnybrook centers around who controls the games. "Chvotkin worked for and reported to the Athletic Department. He was never in contact with the station unless it was totally necessary," said WGTE General Manager Bob Uttenweiler.

Derrick, Sky on All-Team The local media was impressed

enough by the performances of Hoyas Craig Shelton and Derrick Jackson to name the duo to the Tip-Off All-Tournament Team. Jack­son's 19 points Monday night pushed him into first place on the all·time scoring list ahead of Jon Smith-a 1976 graduate and part-time assis­tant coach - who held the old mark of 1255 points. Shelton checked in with 25 points against Maryland, bringing his two-game total to 38 points, nicely complementing his 17 rebounds_

Maryland's Billy Bryant (Tour­nament MVP) and teammate Albert King were also tabbed for all-team kudos, as was Navy's Kevin Sinnett, the tourney's leading scorer (46 pts) and rebounder (21).

* * * Loosening up in the gym ...

that's what the place is for, right? Only now, to the delight of Boya basketball fans, that loosening up is being provided with the help of the Student Corporation and Hoyas Unlimited - in the form of those old GU standbys, beer and mixed drinks.

The beer, going for 251/ a cup, is -"strictly the business of the Cor­poration," according to Corp Con­cession Manager John McGowan. The mixed drink sales, for which the Corp has no license, are sponsored by Hoyas Unlimited which does.

The Corp does the purchasing, inventory, and bartending for the mixed drinks, he explained, and receives a stipend from the alumni group, which gets the profits.

"Hoyas Unlimited came to the Corp," he told the HOYA, "but at first the Athletic Department was adverse t'? (the sales). But with a

little discussion," he added, permis­sion was obtained.

McGowan estimated that the beer profits so far have netted the Corp about $150 per week, plus a Hoyas Unlimited stipend of an additional smackers.

* * After the final bucket, buzzer,

and beer of the Tip-Off Tournament at Capital Centre, the cleanup crews moved in-and so did the account­ants_ GU Director of Athletics and Tournament Director Frank Rienzo told the HOY A this week that "based on what the attendance (11,000 total for both nights) looked like, it seems to me that it's pretty much a break-even situation." Exact figures on the tournament's financial success won't b e available, however for five days to a week, according to Rienzo.

"We knew we were beginning something new, and it takes time to build interest," he said in reference to the "disappointing" attendance.

He also added that the tourna­ment committee (made up of the athletic directors of the four schools) agreed to an examination of the date for next year's tournament, which was to be scheduled for the weekend after Thanksgiving_ That scheduling is thought to have contributed to Sunday's meager turnout of 4500 fans_

Rienzo also singled out Sports Information Dh·ector John Blake for handling of the press arrangements for the tourney. "He did an extreme­ly professional job," he said, "and deserves a lot of credi t."

Blake also prepared the·GU hoop press guide, the only guide which was ready in time for the tourney.

Uttenweiler contends that he was forced to consider replacing Chvot­kin with Trifari because Chvotkin was unwilling to cooperate with GTE. Earlier this year WGTB re­ceived a directive from the Station Management _ Board (SMB) stat­ing," ... it must be station policy that selection of program broadcasr on the station, of persons producing broadcasts, and of those delivering broadcasts-both content and execu­tion of the broadcast-be within the direct control of the WGTB-FM Board of Managers through its delegate, the General Manager." The station Management Board is com­prised of Georgetown's three Execu­tive Vice Presidents (McCarthy, McNully and Kelley), VP for Admin­istrative Services Daniel Altobel\o, and Father William George. Fr. George works for the University's Department offederal Relations and has been closely associated with WGTB for many years. The 5MB

reports directly to Father Healy's Office.

Harriet McFall, assistant to 5MB Chairman Dean McCarthy, said that the Station Manager "must exercise control or it (WGTB) will lose its license." According to McFall, the

"I'm glad Craig had a couple of good games to let people know (how) he can play," he added.

"It's not the worst thing that could have happened," said Shelton who missed almost all of last season while recovering. from a knee injury.

Thompson Inks New 5 Yr. Pact Head basketball coach John Thompson has signed a new five-year

contract, it was announced yesterday. The new pact, the product of a renegotiation of Thompson's former contract (scheduled to run out in 1980), calls for Thompson to act as "consultant for urban affairs" to University President Rev. Timothy Healy, S.J., in addition to his duties as basketball coach.

Fr. Healy's announcement of the signing praised Thompson's work of the last five years at GU: " ... John Thompson has exemplified the Jesuit educational philosophy of developing the whole man---spiritually, intellectually and physically. And as a native Washingtonian who understands the city and is sensitive to the needs of its people, he will play a major role in assisting me to fulfill my inaugural pledge (March 26,1977) 'to be of service, of use, and of help to the city.' "

For the very first time in his two year injury ridden tenure on the Hilltop, George:own basketball fans could observe for themselves just why Coach John Thompson refers to Shelton as "one of the better players in the country-if he plays the way he can."

Taking both the game and the fate of the Hoyas "on any given Monday" in his own hands, "Big Sky" rattled off a drive, then a layup, then another dunk, then ... with only eight minutes gone in the first half, it

Women's B-Ba·1I Gears for '77-'78 Season by Maureen Sullivan

The Women's Basketball Team will come shooting this Saturday afternoon in the 1977-78 home opener aganist Catonsville (MD) Community College, one of eight new teams on the Hoyettes' sched­ule.

"This year we've got the strongest bench we've ever had" said Coach Francis Carr, now in his fourth year on the Hilltop. With the addition of six partial scholarships under the Title IX program, Carr contends that "the team has very good personnel

and can surely beat the average school." But this years' larger sched­ule will also include above-average schools such as Navy, Swarthmore and Mount St. Mary's.

Coach Carr will be relying heavily on his two unofficial captains, Seniors Mary Margaret Dolan and Ria Meagher, both back for their fourth season of play_ "There's a lot of diversity and talent" on the squad, said the petite but agressive Meagher_ "We're playing more like a team now and I'm sure we'll do well." Dolan, a 5'10" center, was quick to agree with Meagher's assessment, saying, "every-

one can shoot so we have a lot of different options which gives us a good chance to go far."

Carr also "expects big things" from his freshman duo of Abbie Dillon and Kim Decker, who alom! with sophomore Maria DeVita are expected to round out the starting line-up_

Although the scholarships have brought in some new, fresh talent, the cagers will be facing better tea.fis and stiffer competition than ever before. "The coaches (Carr along with his first year assistant Pat

~'<,'N __ """"_' "'W. '

Becker) expect more out of us this year," commented Dolan. "They're more serious and tougher now."

Men's basketball at Georgetown may always have top-priority, but the women's squad has come a long way in establishing their position at -McDonough. The girls practice five or six days a week for two hours each day. And Carr sees the new recreation complex which should free McDonough for varsity activity, as a definite advantage for his hoopsters. "We've made tremendous improvements and we're bound to get better," he said.
