Brokaw Charges Wyllie Pressured for Non-Renewal Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document "Journalism is Literature tn a Hurry" — Matthew Arnold University of Wisconsin - Parkside Volume 4—Number 1 June 28,1971 Brokaw Charges Wyllie Pressured for Non-Renewal By Marc Eisen of the Newscope Staff Speaking for nearly three hours before the Science Division Executive Committee in an open hearing. Dr. James Russell Brokaw, assistant professor of psychology, rebutted the charges made against him in the Committee's recommendation for the non-renewal of his contract beyond the 1971-72 academic year. Brokaw charged that Chancellor Wyllie himself pressured for the non-renewal. He said the charges that he was a poor teacher were unsubstantiated and the reason he did no research was that there were no facilities available. The Committee had decided unanimously on April 2 to recommend the non-renewal of Brokaw's appointment. The initial reasons for the decision were repeated student complaints about his teaching, limited and unsatisfactory participation in the professional work of the psychology faculty and of t he Science Division, and lack of e vidence of scholarly activity. Later, Dean Morrow, upon Brokaw's request, gave the specifics of the charges. He said there were persistent complaints about the "chronic lack of careful preparation for classes, poor lectures, incomplete classroom presentations . . . unsatisfactory testing practices, unfair and inappropriate grading practices . . ." For the second point Morrow elaborated, "... Limited and unsatisfactory participation in the professional work of the psychology faculty and of the science division . . . limited amount of participation in business of psychology and division faculty and in faculty committees; procrastination and failure to submit needed information . . . causing extreme inconvenience to colleagues ... by prolonged delays in moving office, by leaving personal effects in gross disorder in a shared office, and by unauthorized use of s ecretarial facilities . . . lack of constructive reactions to criticism and suggestions." Brokaw contended that "I have been frustrated by this administration in my efforts and by the Science Division Executive Committee. I have been frustrated by the Chancellor because the Chancellor does not want to see an animal psychology program here." Brokaw related later that the Chancellor once told him, "When I hired you I thought I was getting a psychologist, not an animal trainer." He asked the Committee point blank if in August Chancellor Wyllie had not told the Committee to fire Brokaw. Burt Wagner, a UW legal counselor, wondered if the question fit into the scope of the hearing. The question was never answered. Brokaw questioned what leaving personal effects in gross disorder in a shared office had to do with "Limited and unsatisfactory participation in the professional work of the psychology faculty and of the science division." Overall, the documents this reporter saw supporting the Committee's assertions were collected after the decision not to renew Brokaw's appointment was made. A memo dated April 15, 1971 — two weeks after the decision, from Dean Morrow to Norbert Isenberg, Chairman of S cience Division, said, "Please prepare for me, as soon as possible, a memo providing detailed, factual documentation of the unsatisfactory aspects of Russell Brokaw's performance, as supporting evidence for the Science Division Executive Committee's recommendation of non-renewal ..." Dr. Surrinder Datta, life science, in a memo to Isenberg dated June 8,1971, stated that in the fall of 1969 he told Dr. "Brokaw that he could use space in that Animal House for his (Continued on Page 6) Inside Baltimore Oriole Interview Johnny Young Siegel Schwa II Review Humanities Reverses Douglas Non Renewal The Humanities Divisional Executive committee has reversed its decision not to renew the contract of Darrell Douglas, assistant professor of music (Newscope, May 24). The Reversal came as the result of a closed hearing held Wednesday on June 16 at which time Douglas appeared before the committee. The hearing is part of the review process, when additional information can be submitted to the committee. The hearing may be open or closed. In addition to Douglas, the committee heard testimony from students and members of the Music Educators National Conference — Parkside chapter. Since Douglas is in his sixth year of teaching, the case now goes to the tenure and curriculum committee for the final decision. Under university regulations, a professor who has been with the university for six years must either be granted tenure or have his contract terminated. After the committee's decision, Douglas was elected coordinator of the music discipline replacing Harry Lantz, interim coordinator. Bill Sorenson is a difficult person to interview, being a friend makes it that much more trying. But he wrote a paper entitled, THE WHEN, WHERE, WHY AND HOW, a semantic reaction diary. Written as an assignment for a general semantics course taught by Dr. Scott Baudhuin, the paper was submitted for publication to ETCETERA: A General Review of Semantics. The quarterly was founded by Dr. S. I. Hayakawa and is considered to be a prestigious publication in the field of general semantics and for a junior to publish in the territory of H. L. Mencken is rare, and I think, significant. I talked with Bill for an hour during which we discussed the paper and some of his ideas toward communication. Speaking about his paper he said, "The article was an assignment, which was to be given orally for a general semantics course. General Semantics is kind of a philosophy of l inguistics, but it's not linguistics, there's a philosophy involved with it too. "The paper was basically a diary of experience; it covered four days of bumping about and I tried my best to attack the top of what is called the structural differential and that is called 'what is going on'." "A fellow called Alfred Korizipsky came up with the theory in 1948 when he published his Science and Society". "The theory itself is based on the idea that we have a tendency to label things and think of them as the things we're talking about. In other words, the thing is, like this chair is a chair and right away the word chair becomes the chair, and that's wrong because it's only called a chair and this has a great influence on the way we think. "I was trying to get at more of the action, the flow of things, the kind of continuum of the experience, the dynamism the changeability. It was more of a creative thing and not a research paper. It was more my true feelings about things, trying my best to approach a truthfulness." His interest in communication focuses on cinematics, in one way as a movie reviewer for NEWSCOPE, but more importantly as a potential film maker. Bill Sorensen: 'The When, Where, Why and How' By John Koloen of The Newscope Staff Categorically refuting ideas toward communication popularized by Marshall McLuhan, he characterized his opposing viewpoint as "dynamic participation." "Filming is very much a part of communications and I think it's an upcoming part. The film is what you want to make it, it can be just as usable as the written word. McLihan talks about hot and cold media; for him hot media would be more like active media that brings about involvement. Like reading words, we become a participant as soon as we start reading because we have to be the channel. The movie, he asys, is not of the same genre because a viewer is getting sound and sight and a lot of the interpretation isn't necessary. "A good example is Finnegan's Wake in book form and in film form were just as challenging in both forms. Many Bergman films are this way and you have to become involved, you have to interpret or else you drown in it." Bill is not the typical scholar and came to Parkside after suffering through a high school education which he called "boring". With many others he shares a contempt for public education with its emphasis on mechanical thinking to the detriment of utilizing ones' creative potential. Referring to problems in communication and in relating to our environment he said, "If we look at the world as a gigantic movement and if we could interpret ourselves in the same way without making static entities of ourselves, we would probably go a long way in improving our society and probably stop delineating between peoples. There's nothing to make it impossible for us to interpret things as they are or at least as they seem to all of us, or seem to a part of us or seem to one of us. We could probably interpret our environment correctly, but we don't do that and that's where it goes back to general semantics. "We do not interpret correctly through language; language should be improved. I don't think you're going to do it by taking English lit., the only way to do it is to say, (Continued on Page 6) Page 2 NEWSCOPE June 28,1971 LETTERS TO THE To the Editor: I am continually amazed at the manner in which this University functions. The way in which the Parkside administration organized the open hearing for Dr. Brokaw leaves doubt in my mind as to whether there was an attempt to review his case in a manner which was fair. I have written a letter to Dean Morrow on behalf of the Brokaw Defense League which I delivered to him personally at the time of the hearing. In that letter, I expressed the position of t he League that we were not satisfied with the lack of written notification of the hearing until two days before the hearing. Similarly, the League felt that notification of Dr. Brokaw's access to his personal file, upon which the Executive Committee's recommendation was based, also came too late. That notification came on Tuesday, June 22. This gave Dr. Brokaw only one day to prepare an answer to any allegations that had been inserted in his file. The letter to Dean Morrow expressed the League's position that room 1J8 of Greenquist Hall was too small a room to conduct the open hearing. This proved to be the case, since there was not sufficient seating capacity, with a number of people forced to stand in the hallways, where they were unable to hear a great deal of the testimony. These sort of arrangements for the open hearing, made by the Office of the Dean of the College of Science and Society, limited the ability of those connected with the defense of Dr. Brokaw to properly organize all of the materials toward that defense. A matter which may ultimately have more significance with respect to the outcome of the hearing is the attitude of the Chancellor, whose duty is to act on the recommendation of the Divisional Executive Committee. I called the Chancellor with regard to the open hearing on June 23, the day before the hearing. I had hoped that he would attend the hearing, so that he might base his actions on testimony received first hand. When I asked him if he planned to attend, his reply was, "It's none of your goddamned business." He finally stated that he definitely would not attend the hearing and.that it was. his impression from a conversation held the day before with the Dean, that the hearing would be postponed because of the recommendation of Dr. Brokaw's physician that he should rest his throat. (Dr. Brokaw had for several weeks been suffering from severe larynghitis.) In the fifteen minute conversation with the Chancellor that ensued, he went on to defend his ten point policy statement made after the attempted dismissals of 27 fac ulty members last winter. He was of the opinion that current administration policies were not at odds with the policies expressed in that policy statement. It would seem that in a legal proceeding, the type of prejudice expressed by the Chancellor would rule him ineligible for the role he must play as executor of the new recommendation of the Science Division Committee. Finally, the type of material in Dr. Brokaw's file is of the type that would be inadmissable in any legal proceedings. Much of the material in the file had been entered there after the Executive Committee made their unanimous recommendation for non-renewal. It seemed that the material was put there to justify their position and that their decision was based on either insubstantial or hearsay evidence. There were several items that were missing from Dr. Brokaw's file. One was a statement of commendation submitted to the Dean by some of Dr. Brokaw's students of last summer. Another notable commission was Dr. Brokaw's memorandum to Dean Morrow on the possibility of shifting Psychology into the Social Science Division. There was a large body of d ata submitted to the file dated June 3, just three weeks before the hearing. Some of th e material submitted to the file was submitted by William Morrow, who both functioned as a representative of the Psychology discipline on the Executive Committee, and then reviewed that decision as acting Dean. Regardless of the outcome of the hearing, the open hearing of Dr. Brokaw has shown that the structure for review of E x e c u t i v e C o m m itt ee r e c o m m e n d a t i o n s is inadequate. There is no semblance of due process. The same people that make the original decision are those that review that decision. The "defendant" has no rights. Burt Wagner, the University attorney who was present, seemed to indicate that the only duty of the Executive Committee was to be present at the Hearing. The members of the Committee were not allowed to testify at the hearing. Apparently, any type of material may be entered or removed from the file of the person whose case is being reviewed, and at any time. It seems that the only legality of the open hearing proceedings is their appearance in the rules and regulations of the University of Wisconsin. My only hope is that those two instructors who were granted closed hearings were allowed a better forum for the presentation of materials relating to their non-renewal recommendations from the Humanities Division. Very truly yours, Edmund Gilday Chairman, Brokaw Defense League cc. President John C. Weaver To the Editor: The political repression that has been going on all year at Parkside reached some sort of a climax on the day of Parkside's commencement exercises, Saturday, June 12. It is now clear to us that we were wrong in assuming that what has gone on came about through lack of coordination within the Office of Student Affairs. It now appears to us that what has gone on in that Office came about as a direct result of coordination within that Office, much of it under the direction of Allen Dearborn. Allen Dearborn's first appearance on that Saturday came when he told us that we could not distribute leaflets inside Greenquist Hall. This came as a surprise to most of us, since we had been allowed to do this during the rest of the school year. Dearborn told us shortly after we entered the building that if we gave out any of our leaflets, we would be arrested. He told us that we could leaflet outside the building. After the commencement exercises, a member of the Parkside Protection and Security force told us that we could not leaflet anywhere on campus. After moving on to Wood Road, we were told we would be arrested if we continued to leaflet there. Finally, we were stopped from leafletting by the Student Government Building when a BOOKS - NOVELS GREENING OF AMERICA by Charles Reich THE COUPLE by Mr. &M rs.

The National Entertainment Conference consists of staff from nearly 600 colleges and universities who work in the areas of campus concerts, films, lectures and travel. Niebuhr was a panelist at a special NEC workshop on group travel held June 7 at Wisconsin State University at Stevens Point. Under Niebuhr's direction, Parkside has sponsored sell-out concerts by such groups as The Fifth Dimension, Blood, Sweat and Tears, The First Edition, Chicago, Buddy Rich, and Your Father's Mustache, sponsored charter flights to Spain, the French Alps and northern Europe, and brought in a steady series of on-campus dance and coffee house acts.

The article I wrote was probably just that, I was trying to do something creative without having a bibliography." Concerning education he said, "When I was in high school, I was one of the lousiest students that ever existed. I passed, but even then I was a lousy student, they were trying to get rid of me. But it scares me to think that any system can remove and alienate anyone as much as the educational structure does in this country. If it wasn't, let's £Pmile RELAX RAINBOW GARDENS AMUSEMENT CENTER MINI-GOLF ARCHERY 87th & SHERIDAN RD say, for Doctor Baudhuin, and other people, especially other students, I probably wouldn't be here either because true communications takes place amidst those who feel alienated. "The way classes are set up, I despise the definite formulated static structure. You go to a room, you sit in a chair, the chair has to have four square feet so you can move your legs; this is wrong. There was a professor Williams, I guess his name was. He taught social psycfi and behavioral psych, and he was totally unstructured. The class developed, there were some criteria to follow but otherwise the students were on their own. "I believe most people walking out of that class felt more fulfilled because to feel fulfilled you have to release things too, you have to feel as if you contributed something. Here you don't feel that, really. The first time I felt I contributed anything was when I started turning an article out that was of my own making, that was picked up out of context, out of the school, and sent somewhere else. It was a personal private thing, these things can be done, but they are seldom recognized.

RACINE 633-7759 EDITOR Parkside car and a Protection and Security squad car pulled up and we were confronted by several plainclothes police officers. We were told that we could leaflet on campus only what the Dean (Allen Dearborn) told them could be distributed. Apparently our leaflets, which were critical of the recent terminations of five Parkside faculty members, were unacceptable. Later that night, Allen Dearborn reappeared to break up a gathering of students at the Student Government Building. He told them that they could not use the building without prior approval, since the building was operated through his office. He told several student senators that were present that they did not represent the Parkside student body. He gave everyone present five minutes to clear the area, threatening them with arrest if they wanted to stay. He then called in three members of the Protection and Security force who came with guns to enforce that order. The most surprising event that occurred on that Saturday took place about a half an hour after Dearborn had cleared the students from the Student Government Building. About forty students massed on the Tallent Hall parking lot, shouting an anti-Dearborn phrase, and burned Dearborn in effigy. Dearborn's response this time was incredible. He said he did not understand why the students had done this. His comment was, "We've taken your building away, what more do you want?". He then threatened the one Parkside faculty member who happened to be present, Hal Stern, telling him to get off campus and telling him to watch out who he associates with. Dearborn then proceeded to collect ID cards from anyone who looked suspicious to him. One student, Ian MacTaggart, was stopped in the parking lot by Sargent Crow, who pulled out a blackjack and told MacTaggart to give him his student ID or leave. Ian left. The type of measures that Allen Dearborn is using against the students are far out of line with the actions of students on this essentially conservative campus. More than anyone else at this University, Allen Dearborn has served to radicalize the student body. We do not believe his actions are justified. We only hope that this sort of repression will not be condoned by other segments of the Parkside administration, particularly the Office of the Chancellor. We hope that the opinions concerning students at Parkside held by Allen Dearborn are not shared by those •others in the administration who are responsible for dealing with student needs.

If you've been wondering why Wood Road has been torn up, it's because of the construction of the utilities distribution tunnel. The tunnel will carry heat and chilled water and connect the Heating and Chilling Plant, which is presently under construction, with Greenquist Hall and the Library Learning Center. Work being done near Wood Road should be completed by the middle of July, and the road opened again at that time. The tunnel itself should be finished by fall. The plant will be finished by the fall of 1972. It will be large enough to handle all heating and chilling needs till 1980. It replaces a temporary Heating and Chilling Plant that served Greenquist. According to Francis O'Murray of Planning and Facilities, it is more efficient to have one central heating and chilling plant than many smaller sub-stations. Other work being done in the same area is the construction of the first leg of the campus innerloop road, and of sewer and water facilities beneath the road. Putting the sewer beneath the road means the land only has to be dug up once. Kenosha Mayor Wallace Burkee (left) and Emil Abendroth, president of Global Business and Residential Centers, Inc., of iMilwaukee, turn the first shovels full of earth at the site of Parkside 'village, a private development of apartments for students adjacent to the University of Wisconsin-Parkside on Wood Road. Looking on (from left) are John Abendroth of the Global firm and UWParkside Chancellor Irvin G. Wyllie. The first phase of the Global development project will open this September with apartments capable of accommodating as many as 256 persons. Abendroth has published a notice of intent to seek annexation to Kenosha of 1,380 acres, including the housing site and all 700 acres of the Parkside campus which is now in Somers Township. Mayor Burkee said the annexation petition, the largest ever sought for Kenosha, would open the way to city installation of a major interceptor sanitary sewer and development of the entire Parkside area. He said 75 per icent of the cost of the $1.5 million sewer project could come from state and federal funds.

I'm not just talking about the Beatles. I'm talking about the whole generation, the revolutionary image and the long hair. It's time to own up. It's over and we have to get down to so-called reality." John Lennon made this statement early this year and attracted many new followers. On his solo album, which came out about Christmas-time, he added a romantic twist to his new philosophy, as he sang of the "working class hero". The working class individual is all too often the most commonly forgotten, least acknowledged cog in American society, even though without him, the basics in life we enjoy wouldn't exist. With this in mind, it is my intention to bring to the pages of Newscope, a working class hero every week. By interviewing this person, I hope to bring out insights on many issues and problems concerning American society. In the song, "Working Class Hero", John Lennon sang, "A working class hero is something to be, a working class hero is something to be . . .' In the weeks to come, it will be interesting to see why a working class hero is indeed, "something to be." By Prof. Koch Now that summer has arrived, you don't want to waste time preparing big meals. Here are a few suggestions for quick meals for two. Alpine Onion Soup What you need: 1 can Onion Soup (condensed) 1 tablespoon margarine 1 well beaten egg >/4 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, grated 3 tablespoons flour How to put it all together: Follow directions on soup can and prepare soup. In separate bowl, beat butter till creamy, then add egg, flour, salt and cheese, blending ingredients together. You will have a batter-like substance in the bowl. As soup simmers (i.e., small bubbles form by low heat), drop batter by small teaspoonsfulls into simmering soup. Simmer for about five minutes. To serve: Place in bowls, serve with saltines or Ritz crackers. Add cooked chicken or chicken salad sandwiches go nice with this. Chicken Salad is good for sandwiches or as the center of a summer salad plate meal. It's easy to prepare once you've cooked (or bought) the chicken. Chicken Salad What you need: Vi2 of 1 cup cooked minced chicken V2 cup diced celery l /4 c up diced onion 1 medium tomato, cut up small pieces one-third cup mayonaise V-i teaspoon each of salt and pepper In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well (don't beat it). Leaye covered bowl sit in frigerator until chillded. Then you're ready to serve — on rye bread for sandwiches, or on lettuce leaves for salad plate. Americans View Peace Corps WASHINGTON, D.C. — Young Americans led the nation in viewing the Peace Corps and Peace Corps Volunteers as a positive force for "helping other people to help themselves". This conclusion comes from a recent Peace Corps national research survey conducted by Daniel Starch and Staff of Mamaroneck, New York. The survey showed that a majority of young persons (18 to 24) consider people-to-people programs to be the Peace Corps' major contribution abroad (65 per cent of 18-to-24-year-olds vs. 57 per cent for the total sample). Also, young Americans lead the way in holding a positive attitude about the Peace Corps (84 p er cent of Americans 18-24 vs. 78 per cent of the total sample) and in approving of Peace Corps Volunteers (96 per cent approval among those 18-24 vs. 86 per cent of the total sample). Young Americans also indicated a high level of personal interest in the Peace Corps. Asked whether they thought the Peace Corps would be interested in them, 72 per cent of the respondents 18- 24 said "yes," compared to 48 per cent of the total sample. And 51 per cent between the ages of 18 and 24 s aid they had an interest in joining the Peace Corps, compared to 28 per cent in the total sample. The research also disclosed that over one-third of the young Americans sampled claimed to know personally a current or former Peace Corps Volunteer. Since the Peace Corps' inception in 1961, more than 50,000 Americans have served as Volunteers overseas. When asked about the Peace Corps' role within the U.S. government, young Americans were above the national average in believing the Peace Corps operated independently in the 60 developing nations in which Volunteers serve (64 per cent of persons 18- 24 vs. 54 per cent of the total sample). The research survey was conducted earlier this year among widely varied demographic groups across the United States. Of the total sample of 995, there were 164, or 17 per cent between the ages of 18 and 24. CIRUN A Takes Positive Stand In W orld Affairs by Janet Sabol — N. Y. — The National Student Leadership Institute on World Affairs (CIRUNA) held its annual conference in New York recently. With the enactment of several constitutional changes the organization is turning from a timid stance in world affairs to an organization concerned with attaining goals concerning the environment, Cdmmunist China, development and South Africa. In the past CIRUNA h$s shown reluctance at taking positive action on its platforms for fear of losing its tax exempt status. Parkside's CIRUNA will be working on South Africa with particular attention placed on its apartheid policy of white supremacy and the exploitation of foreign investors which make it ex tremely difficult for blacks to raise their standard of living or obtain political freedom. In the RacineKenosha area three corporations involved in South Africa are J. I. Case Co., S. C. Johnson Inc., and American Motors Corporation.

Eating In D A R R EL B O R G E R June 28,1971 NEWSCOPE Page 5 Charles Shaughnessy Robert Mitchum Rosy Ryan Sarah Miles Father Collins Trevor Howard Major Doryan Christopher Jones Michael John Mills Thomas Ryan Leo McKern It could be said that writings that contain the themes of war, revolution and betrayed love attract David Lean's fine talent. It could also be said that when Mr. Lean has finished with his mainly historical productions they are the finest; so it is with Ryan's Daughter. Ample use was made of all three of the themes through masterful cinematography that granted the film a more than deserved Academy Award. Exquisite photography of Ireland's jagged coastline and beautiful flora played as backdrop for a WW I-era village of outwardly simple folk where all was not quite as it seemed. The viewer is given the all too rare opportunity to look closely at circumstances, where people are caught up in promises that cannot be kept. This same fluency of experience was demonstrated in Lean's earlier "Doctor Zhivago". In both cases, the omniscient viewer comes so close to the characters that a near-total empathy is unavoidable. One of this reviewer's greatest problems is that of finding universals in films that are not meant to be rflade for universal interpretation. While Ryan's Daughter is primarily an historical film, I will interpret further; seeing, of course, that "problems" are an important source of identity. Revolution played an important part as an aspect of the film, as was the case in "Doctor Zhivago". Here we find the cold and sometimes angry alienation that results from one people striving for freedom from another. The goal that they set before them becomes so important that all privacy is unveiled and anyone in the path to that goal is crushed. So is the case in our simple romance between a teacher and his student. The story begins with the rather beautiful romance between that young girl (Sarah Miles) and her older teacher (Robert Mitchum). They wed but soon their romance cools and the lust for life inherent in most young girls and men leads the girl into an even more poetic affair with an English Major (Christopher Jones) who bears the stigma of a n Englishman in revolutionary Ireland. Their love, at first desperate, then sensible, is as beautifully photographed as I have yet seen on film. Our school teacher soon finds out about the involvement, but is too aware of his wife's youth and passion to prohibit the entanglement. So, he lets it continue, with hopes of her eventual disinterest. The only member of t he town who knows of the affair other than the girls' husband, is the town fool... A strange little crippled man who's mimmicing soon betrays the previously quiet affair. The little man is portrayed by John Mills; his beautiful mixture of disdain, joy and childlike sadness enriched the character to academy award standards. Betrayal stands as another of the major themes. First, the aforementioned betrayed love, and second the betrayal of a daughter by her father. Thomas Ryan (Leo McKern) eventually turns his back on his beautiful child and lets her bear the burden of his treachery. As the movie comes to a close she is chastised by an angry mob of villagers who nearly rape her and finally shear off her hair . . the enigmatic becomes the known as her faithful, saintlike husband is held back from saving her. The love that was found is lost as the Major commits suicide. While the film is a history, it remains as more in that it shows quite graphically how little we have changed, if for nothing more than its breathtaking photography it is well worth seeing.

First, if I am qualified to write this column at all, it is as a last 11 or so reviews were anything but complimentary, we arrive happily at this week's subject. Even with the knowledge that generalizations are not very convincing, I'd still have to start out by saying that "Tarkus" is head and shoulders above any album I've heard released in the last few months. In these dark days of commercializing and sell-outs, it will serve to bolster your faith in rock. Specifically, their attraction lies in their ability to use the 5 musician, not a writer. Often my literary attempts have contained the poise and subtlety of Harpo Marx swinging from a chandelier, and I will readily admit it. Second, a few of you have been asking me why it is that I never seem to say anything nice in my reviews. As far as my writing is concerned, I can do little but offer you the hope that it may improve as I keep attempting it; but concerning my somewhat fatalistic outlook that may possibly be too apparent in my reviews, it's a characteristic anyone can develop by simply looking into the state of affairs the recording industry is in today. For every good album released, the industry drops a dozen bombs totally undeserving of serious attention. But anyway, seeing as I've already used about ten column inches and also seeing that my idea of the three-man group successfully, making full use of its advantages. The music is uncluttered, precisely clear, never a pointless run or a sloppy riff. Not since Tull have I heard a group so obviously tight and sure of itself, and not since Brubeck have I heard a group so at ease in just about any meter you can think of. Another strong attraction is their originality. The music isn't "Cream" or "Glass Harp" or any other trio you've heard before. It's distinctly them, whatever they want to call it. But the one thing that I really found hard to believe was Emerson's keyboard work. The way he can string ideas together, never digressing, is amazing. Apologies to Niki Hopkins, but he's the best I've ever heard. All in all, I doubt if you'll ever hear a group playing much better than this. by Paul Lomartire It was the first day of 1971 that could have been aptly labeled "a scorcher." The ladies who spend a life-time downtown shopping for incidentals were even doggin' it a bit under the sweltering sun. I was standing on the corner of 56th Street and 7th Avenue wondering where I could go to find a Utopia, which at that point would have simply been an air conditioned building. I was to meet Maggie for lunch, and the Dutch Maid looked like the place. It only took a few seconds to realize that the Dutch Maid was either not air conditioned or the air conditioning wasn't turned on. In either case, I was out of the sun and I figured a lot of people will find themselves under the same sun in the same heat downtown, walking into the Dutch Maid for the same reason I did. The Dutch Maid is the type of restaurant-soda shop that you can find in almost any town. No matter how small a town is there is always a place to buy an ice cream cone or get a sundae or meet your friends. Kenosha's ice cream parlor downtown would fair very well almost anywhere. There is a jukebox stocked with old favorites, songs hot off the surveys, a few standards, and good speakers so everyone in the place can enjoy someone's selections. When it comes to enjoying an ice cream dish, there is a very good selection here. I had heard much talk from a friends about something called a "Fabulous Nightmare", which supposedly takes at least forty minutes to eat. It costs a dollar seventyfive and is guaranteed to make the eater feel like a true glutton before the spoon clinks against the empty dish. I just couldn't get into making a display of eating lunch for all the passersby on the street, and I was also afraid they might serve it in a pail. So on this hot day Maggie decided to try a mm "Peanut Vender", which includes Spanish peanuts, chocolate syrup and whipped cream or marshmallow. It costs fifty-five cents, and is worth it Maggie said after examining the structure. She is a former employee of a very successful ice cream stand, and I consider her testimony expert. I decided to eat a more traditional lunch, so my order fell into the lines of a fish dinner. For eightynine cents I got a haddock square, French fries, cole slaw and a piece of bread and butter. I passed up the list of drinks available, phosphates, soda combinations and coolers, in favor of a cup of coffee. I thought the food was good. The prices are high in some spots on the menu, but an experienced eater can piece together a good economic, filling meal. There is only one thing that annoys me about eating a meal at the Dutch Maid, and that is the system by which they ration ketchup to their patrons. It is quite evident that teanagers make up a major portion of the customers at the Dutch Maid. The ghosts of D ave and Ricky Nelson seem to be in the air. Everytime I eat there I expect Frankie Avalon to run in and grab a chick's hand and run to "where the action is." Kenosha provides their youth with absolutely no community sponorored events, so like the Dutch Maid and various street corners serve as mee ting places. I imagine the most frequently ordered combination at the Dutch Maid is French fries and a Coke. So a bunch of k ids come in, order this and sit for awhile and order nothing else. There is nothing wrong until the French fries are served. When I got my meal, I saw a tiny cup of ketchup that lasted through about a half dozen French fries. When I asked for more, I found out that a second ration is a nickel extra. This is what annoyed me. Using the management's logic I c an only assume that they are afraid much of the ketchup goes to waste. I imagine they have seen many puddles of ketchup on a plate long after the fries are gone. But I can't see that this is any reason to charge everyone a nickel extra for only enough ketchup to satisfy the average person. This may all seem too trivial to discuss in print, but it is another instance where everyone is made to suffer for the actions of a few. If the Left runs out of issues to protest, and the youth of America look for new directions for a revolution, the Kenosha Dutch Maid and its ketchup policy seems a likely target. The visit to the Dutch Maid was good though, in that the food was good. I suppose that is all that is really important. So, if you're ever downtown sweltering in the heat about noon, a visit to the Dutch Maid might be just the ticket. Some day I hope the good ole Bowery Boys make a national tour of American soda shops and stop in Kenosha's downtown Dutch Maid. I would like to see someone explain to them why a second cup of ketchup is extra. It would be far out to see Mugsy, Satch and the boys make an issue out of the ketchup policy. That would be worth a nickel.

He summarized by saying Dr. Brokaw has never been refused animal space for his scholarly activity. At the hearing Brokaw saia this space was not adequate because he needed access to a computer, and because he wanted his classes to be able to use the space. He told the Committee of his work on the Facilities and Planning Committee of the Science Division in»purchasing the Lehigh Valley Interact Computer System. He spoke of his work on the justification of the facility and of submitting three sets of laboratory plans for it. None of which were accepted. "What happened then all of a sudden?" he asked. "The laboratory is assigned; I never heard about it. Another psychologist was hired; I never hear about that — until they took a course away from me (Experimental Psychology) and gave it to him. Then I found all my equipment was gone. I find this very strange." He continued, "Now it seems everyone is upset because I didn't do any research. But of course you haven't given me any facilities to do research in. But that doesn't bother you a bit. I have no equipment to do reasearch in, so h ow in God's name can I do research?" he asked. Brokaw said that student charges that he was a poor teacher were never substantiated and that he was never informed of them. In regard to the Experimental Psychology Course he said five student complaints were used as an excuse to take the course away from him. He argued the complaints were "torn out of context" and extenuating circumstances were not considered. He told the Committee he had no laboratory facilities to teach the experimental class in. The ideal size of the class he said would have been 15, but the cut-off« mark was set at 24. Over 70 students enrolled. The eventual enrollment was 50 after he encouraged people to drop. Another mitigating circumstance, Brokaw said, was that the class met only once a week, and it was the first time it had been taught. Brokaw complained the negative comments were not adequately investigated. "I wonder if it is inappropriate to go inside them, why do you cite them? I think you should either bury them, or else take them up with me." He questioned why a statement of commendation submitted to Dean Morrow by some of his students of last summer was not in his file. Members of the Executive Committee present at he hearing were: Norbert Isenberg, chemistry; Robert Esser, life science; Albert May, mathematics; John Vozza, chemistry; Kenneth Cashion, chemistry; Harold Coppock, p s y c h o l o g y ; E u gen e Gasiorkiewicz, life science; M i c h a el R o tte n b e r g, mathematics; Allan Schneider, earth science; Surrinder Datta, life science; and James Shea, earth science.

Questions on varied subjects including all-star balloting procedures and controversial books on sports were asked ^ s pok e with Paul Blair, Oriole outfielder, and asked him about the method used for choosing the all-star team. Fans are given cards with a list of previously chosen players and they are to vote for their choices A provision for write-ins is included. Blair discusses it- "Either way you go somebody is going to get hurt. Right now I think the name ballplayers are the guys that will make the all-star teams. These are "If you rely on college players, you are not developing your own players." Paul Blair, outfielder the guys that the people know about. The rookies that are having good years and so-so ballplayers that are doing well get less coverage than 'name' players. Some of them are not going to be chosen on the all-star ballot, but if the players pick the team some of them would be hurt also. Either way you go, somebody is going to lose out by it, but I imagine this is about the best way because you get more participation from the fans. Perhaps some fans will come out to the park just so they get the opportunity to vote for the allstar team." Blair was asked about the incident in Chicago where a fan jumped onto the field and attacked Baltimore s Don Bufford. Bufford had earlier run to the mound with bat in hand after a White Sox pitcher had hammed him on a pitch. Blair said: "This is the first time I have seen it happen and it was an unfortunate incident, but the fan had no business on the field swinging at one of our ballplayers. We're only 25 and there are quite a few fans in the stands so we have to try to protect ourselves. You've got to help your teammate. He (the fan) could have started a big incident there, a big riot, but nothing significant developed because no one else came out of th e stands. I think the Brooks commented on the fact that all playoff series up till now have been sweeps: "Well, it is quite unusual. For example, we played Minnesota 12 times last year, losing seven, yet beat them three in a row in the playoff series so it is hard to figure out." Big first baseman "Boog" Powell talked very briefly on Jim Bouton's books: "I don'tknow anything about either one of them because I didn't read either one of them. I don't have any opinion on them because I didn't read them. I do know that not too many guys liked the books." Frank Robinson, one of baseball's most feared hitters, answered a few questions for us. He talked about the playoffs and why they have been so onesided: "I just think it is coincidence, actually. In a short series like that anything can happen, and I think that is the case here. No team has expected "Anytime a fan comes onto the field, he is asking for trouble." Frank Robinson, outfielder to sweep a three game series from their divisional opponent." On the all-star balloting, Frank had these remarks: "It is fine with the fans voting, but I just don't like the way it is set up before spring training begins because players whose names appear on the ballot are most likely the one's who will receive votes. People don't really have a tendency to think about write-ins. They get their card and punch it. I think they should distribute the ballots and say, 'Here fans, vote for who you want to vote for,' and that way people are going to look at a newspaper and.be more aware of who is going good at that time." Slowpitch softball is popular in Racine and Kenosha and many Parkside students are playing it. With this in mind, we asked Frank if h e ever tried it: "Well, I've played a few games of slowpitch softball. I did pretty well and I know that a lot of people think it is really easy, but it is not as simple as some Newscope Interviewi The World Champion Baltimore Orioles fan deserved what he got because he had no business coming out swinging at Bufford." Blair was asked to comment on college baseball and its relation to the minor leagues. In recent years there has been a notable decline in the number of minor league clubs, but it is still a question as to whether college baseball will effectively take up the slack. Blair had this to say: "If you rely on college players you are not developing your own ballplayers because somebody else might get them before you, perhaps by offering more money. When you have your own ballplayers and your own minor league system you don't have to worry about another team taking them from you and you can develop them. I think this is the main reason why you have the minor leagues in baseball. You don't have much of it in basketball and football because they don't rely on their minor league systems." In a related subject, Blair discussed how the baseball draft works: "You can't sign out of high school but a player can sign out of college. The purpose of the player draft is to keep one club from buying up all the available talent." Brooks Robinson, perennial all-star third baseman on the world champions, commented on Jim Bouton's critical analyses of baseball found in his two books* "I don't think they did baseball any good, but I think there was a lot of -truth in them. There were, however, numerous things that came second hand; statements by players that have been categorically denied since then. Yet it is a free country so you can do what you want to." He continued, "Baseball is just like any other thing in life, any other business. If anybody wanted to write something about the local bank they could sit down and do it, too. The only difference in professional sports is that you have a type of celebrity status and some people are gding to be unhappy there have been fewer and fewer ballplayers signed mainly because they haven't got a place to go." Brooks Robinson, third baseman about comments. People are disgruntled about other businesses, too, but if they wrote books on them it wouldn't make any difference one way or another." Brooks also discussed college baseball's relation to the minor leagues: "There-have been fewer and fewer minor leagues in the past few years and there have been fewer and fewer ballplayers signed mainly because they haven't got a place to go. If a prospective player asked me what to do I d tell him to go to school and play college baseball, but then again I think that the years 18 to 21 are about the most important years of a player's development Playing minor league baseball is better than playing college ball, but I d tell a boy to try to get an education, and if he wants to try to make it big in baseball, he should try that also." Is the appeal in baseball going up or down? Robinson remarked on this question: "Well, it varies from town to town. It really depends on whether or not you are winning. Overall, there have been more teams so the attendance has increased over the last several years." He was asked about the value of the divisional arrangements: They have good and bad things about them. You don't have 12 teams in one league, which is good. If you had 12 teams and we had the kind of years that we have had in the last two seasons the race would be decided quickly. This way you have the playoffs which lead to more overall interest. think it is. I wouldn't want to play slowpitch softball for a living." Frank discussed one of Jim Bouton's books (Ball Four): "I don't think this and some other controversial books are hurting professional sports. The first book Bouton wrote, which was entitled Ball Four, could have been written by anyone connected with baseball. Many things that happen with the ballclub — in the clubhouse, on the road, the things players say in confidence, should not be written and made public. Because Bouton did this he ran into trouble." Frank had some remarks on the fan incident in Chicago: "It has happened a couple of t imes — once when I was in Cincinnati. Any time a fan comes on to the field he is asking for trouble. It is also true that ballplayers cannot go into the stands after a fan because they pay their way to come into the ballpark and basically they can say what they want to as long as they remain in the stands. Once they come on to the field they're fair game and anything can happen because you don't know what they have on their minds when they come on the field and approach you." He talked about fan behavior around the league: "Some cities are worse than others. It is bad in New York because the fans bring a lot of junk to the ballpark. Detroit is another bad one, but most of the parks are cleaning up with that stuff, and it's not too bad — m ostly paper — bu t some people still bring stuff at the park to throw at players." Frank was asked whether he preferred a hit in older parks, or the new more symmetrical parks: "Old parks like Detroit and Boston are good to hit in, but the new parks are all quite fair as far as the measurements and dimensions go, because they are basically alike. If yo u are hitting well they will go out of any ballpark. I don't worry about any park in particular — I just try to hit the same in all of them." After the game we talked with Baltimore manager Earl Weaver. He answered a few of our questions, but stayed clear of some of them. In the two years that the divisional playoffs have occurred there have been three game sweeps in both leagues. Weaver had a comment on this matter: "It is hard to explain. Usually there is one pitcher on every ballclub that can give the opposing club a problem. We had Dave Boswell in 1969 who went 11 innings in a scoreless game against us before we could win it. Everybody is at the top of their game at that time of the year. Teams have a couple of off days before the playoffs to get their pitching in shape and set it up the way they want it. Nine out of ten times the club with the best percentage is going to make it to the world series. This is true because of the talent. Despite the "I believe that we are already a dynasty." Earl Weaver, Manager fact that the club with the highest percentage will probably end up in the series, three straight both times in both leagues has just been something unbelievable." Baltimore has been the dominating force in the American League in recent years so Weaver was asked to compare the Baltimore team with the great New York Yankee teams in the past: "I believe that we are already a dynasty. The Yankees never won as many ballgames in two consecutive years as the Orioles have in the last two years, so that would put us a little ahead of them. We have won three pennants in the last five years, which certainly qualifies us for a dynasty, and it's what we do every day on the field from now on that will determine if we remain a dynasty." The Baltimore clubhouse, after the 12-4 victory, had an aura of confidence in it, and on checking the standings one finds that the Orioles have now regained the top spot by a substantial margin. They were in second place at the time of this series of interviews. Baltimore's combination of talent, confidence and good rapport among the players help make it a difficult team to overtake. Page 8 NEWSCOPE June 28,1971 But it's a fact that while Johnny can get a cheer for one teeny roll of his hips, Corky Siegel is splotched by the end of the first song and gets progressively wetter. Jim Schwall gets exercise occasionally and the bass and drummer stay calm, until the bassman, A1 Radford, takes his inevitable and fine solo. But Siegel is constantly moving, jerking upright, bouncing his rubber legs, flapping his arms, dashing from mike to piano, mugging, drops whipping off, playing, squealing, grunting, flying, crawling good harp. Schwall uses body English, too, but mostly playing statues, striking poses to coax notes from his old electrified Martin acoustic. He's a fine guitarist from sparse slow chords to buzzing bottleneck, and you can bet your calluses that he didn't learn to play that by Mike Stevesand Boogie! It's a magic word these days. Skinny, shaggy cats chant it reverently into a microphone and the resultant spell is stato-electrically intense. Hands clap, feet stamp, and eyes glaze into uniform rapture 'gonna make you feel all right. Even if you've argued the blues—dues question to an exhausted standstill, you've got to accept that most bands can't make it work. Kenosha was recently attacked by two bands that can. Sunday, June 13, the Parkside tent housed, just barely, the Johnny Young Blues Band and the most laid back invocation of the Boogie Madness you'd ever want to see. Wednesday, June 16, the Midwest's resident good time band, the Siegel-Schwall Blues Band, sweated its way to a screaming ovation at the Eagles Club hall of mirrors. Young, 300 plus pounds of crowdpleasing Chicago South Side funk, and his band are the real item. He says that his bassman used to play with, and in fact is a cousin of the late, great Chicago guitarist, Magic Sam, and that he often plays with Sam Lay, blues drummer supreme. The right credentials. They are black and they are grown men, with the exception of a white boy on harmonica, and they are certainly not in this business for the glamor of it. They radiate such happiness with their music, and such lack of self-importance that they look as though, if they were white, they'd be a polka band booked solid with garlic weddings six months in advance. But they work steadily and tour often, one of the few Chicago bands that doesn't find it necessary to hold down fulltime jobs to keep food on the table. Maybe that's a good sign. The thing about Young and company is, they make it look easy. They have no part of the rock and roll consciousness, and therefore don't need and probably never learned the tricks that your neighborhood band studies so earnestly. No flash. No birdman arm exercises. No meatless solos. Just blues of a quality that leaves the crowd no choice but to dance, sing, pass out, whatever, like a gas-filled room exploding at the suggestion of a single match. Oh yeah, Johnny does play his mandolin behind his head. The rhythm section, immobile bassist and droll drummer, lay the foundation for the guitarist who fills every crack with tasty riffs and plays mean rhythm himself when the harp or Johnny's mandolin is in the foreground. The total sound is so integrated that its architecture, and Johnny's bumps and grinds, infrequent and spontaneous, top it like a gargoyle grinning down with a head full of how to make you move. Altogether, a frantic Sunday afternoon. The Siegel-Schwall band, on the other hand, bring their sweat with them. They are as tight as Young's band, in some studied ways tighter, but there is a difference, which those really into musical roots would call lack of dues, which has to do with not having been taught the blues by your % year old Delta grandpappy; anyway, they have to work harder to be as loose, as cool, as black bands. Corky Siegel and Jim Schwall have in fact been taught by such non-debatable blues masters as Otis Spann, deceased pianist, and their dedication to the idiom cannot really be questioned. And they play well, too. Symphony, so what, B. B. King's played with orchestras, too. It's not exactly grandstanding. Typically, the audience started the evening on the floor and dragged it full of chairs between sets, thinking that the best way to listen to Siegel-Schwall is sitting down. The best way to listen to SiegelSchwall is moving, and by the last songs that discovery had been made. The final frenzied number, yes it was a boogie, got everyone up and shaking until the plugs were pulled. Corky didn't use this for a putthe-dam-plugs-back-in-ego trip, but saw that it was more hassle than it was worth, and said that's cool. Bulldog Harry, arguably Kenosha's best band, backed up Siegel-Schwall, and even The Johnny Young Blues band at UWP. way in somebody's garage, or for a pile of money. See, these guys aren't rock stars either, they're musicians who'd rather play small acoustically sound rooms like the UWM Union than the Fillmores. They even haul their own stuff around. And even if t hey are doing gigs with the Milwaukee if the acoustics at the Eagles didn't do anyone any favors, they played a fine set. With all the new production companies, Mark IV, Bag, Roach, and now Magus, it is to be hoped that more music like this will be coming.
