Plenum Agenda Debated During Open Meeting

By ELLEN WEBER

The open meeting called to plan the agenda for next week's plenum on the financial crisis last night extended the dead- line for proposals for the plenum until noon Saturday.

The group also tentatively set the plenum for next Wednesday at 7:30 P.M. in Annenberg auditorium, provided that space* is available. Alternative dates are next Tuesday, and Thursday, in order of preference.

The administrative committee of the community of students arranged the planning assembly after receiving petitions with the 500 signatures required by the constitu- tion to call a University-wide plenum. Circulated by the undergraduate members of the University Council, the peti- tions asked for a plenum to "consider the University financial crisis as it relates to the financial aid policy, the athletic program, and the importance of various student services." „ ,. ,

S-Block Would Not Be First Blemish on McCloskey Record

After nine weeks of careful con- sideration, President Meyerson said Thursday that he had chosen a can- didate for the provostship, and would submit that choice to the executive committee of the Board of Trustees for acceptance on Monday.

Meyerson said that, although he anticipated no difficulty in obtaining the approval of the executive com- mittee, he did not think it proper to release the candidate's name until after the trustee meeting for reasons of official protocol.

The new provost, if accepted by the executive committee, will take office as of Jan. 1, 1971, succeeding Dr. David Goddard, whose decision to retire necessitated the choice of the new provost. Meyerson said he may ask the trustees to make the provostship a seven-year term.

The president's candidate was

drawn from a list of 10 names, sub- mitted to him by the Consultative Committee to Advise the President on the Selection of a Provost on Sept. 24. Included on the list were Dr. Irving Kravis, professor of economics; Dr. Almarin Phillips, professor of economics; Dr. Peter Nowell, chairman of the department of pathology; Dr. Werner Gun- dersheimer, associate professor of history; Curtis Reitz, professor of law; and Dr. Robert Lumiansky, professor of English - all from inside the University.

Also, Dr. Aaron Lemonick, dean of the graduate school at Princeton University; Dr. Ernst May, professor of history at Harvard University; Dr. Gardner Ackley, former chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers; and Bayless Manning, dean of the Stanford Law School.

the father and son duo which has made the family's construction concern one of the nation's most prosperous, have not reached nor maintained this position without difficulty. It has, indeed, been a rocky road to success.

Although the firm has had no apparent difficulty in procuring building contracts, its reputation has been severely tarnished during the course of the past 20 years. On numerous occasions, McCloskey & Co. has faced charges of shoddy construction, influence peddling and profiteering, which have resulted in legal action and at least three U.S. Senate investigations.

The intimations by University residence officials that the cor- poration is at fault for the recent Superblock flooding incidents-which have caused damage unofficially estimated at $50,000-is thus just another blemish on the McCloskey record.

And there have been and continue to be many.

Most members of the University community are probably aware of the problems which have arisen in the physical plants of the McCloskey constructed Spectrum and the nearly- completed Philadelphia Veterans Stadium.

On Feb. 17, 1968. during a per- formance of the Ice Capades, part of the roof of the Spectrum caved in. McCloskey made some repairs, which in the light of ensuing events proved inadequate. Only several weeks later, the same thing happened again.

McCloskey, as had happened on numerous previous occasions, was

National WASHINGTON - In a stunning

reversal of sentiment, the Senate voted 52 to 41 Thursday to deny President Nixon the $290 million necessary to begin development and flight testing of prototypes of the giant supersonic transport plane i SST). The vote crossed party and sectional lines, as Republicans and Democrats, Northerners and Southerners voted on both sides of the issue. Three of the leaders of the fight to oppose the SST, Sens. William Proxmire, D-Wis.; Charles Percy, R-Ill.; and Marlow W. Cook. R-Ky., said in a joint statement that this decision "would simply postpone development until the en- vironmental questions are answered and private capital shows a willingness to invest in the SST."

NEW YORK - Black revolutionary Angela Davis was ordered extradited to California Thursday by the New York State Supreme Court to face charges of murder and kidnap in a courthouse shootout last August. Supreme Court Justice Thomas Dickens denied her attorney's request for a writ of habeas corpus, but granted a five-day stay of extradition in order to grant her attorney, John J. Abt, time to appeal to the state court's appellate division. Miss Davis is charged with buying the weapons used in the San Rafae', California kidnapping attempt. However, in California being an accessory to murder and kidnapping makes the defendant equally guilty for the crime.

iO PRESS INI S IT./. 1

WASHINGTON - A House sub- committee adopted a report Thursday stating that there were no grounds for impeaching Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, but two of his critics vowed to press the campaign to have him removed from the court. For eight months, the subcommittee investigated charges that the 72-year- old Douglas had associated with gamblers, advocated revolution and written for a pornographic magazine. Subcommittee members said that the report was adopted on a party-line basis, with the committee's three Democrats voting in favor of the report, one Republican against, and one Republican abstaining.

International MONTREAL - The separatist

kidnapers of British diplomat James R. Cross released him Thursday and prepared to collect their only ransom - - a flight to exile in Cuba. Cross, ap- pearing tired but unharmed, had been held as a hostage of the Quebec Liberation Front < FLQ) for 60 days. Cross and two alleged kidnapers - Jacques Lanctot and Marc Car- bonneau - were sped by police motorcade from the FLQ hideout house in residential northern Mon- treal to St. Helen's Island in the St. Lawrence River. There, a helicopter took the two to Montreal Airport, where they caught a Canadian Air Force Yukon to Cub a.Surrender of the kidnapers appeared to be the beginning of the end of the worst peacetime crisis in Canadian history.

cleared of all culpability and the problem was blamed on faulty design rather than faulty construction.

The question still remains to this date, however, as to why McCloskey. which was contracted to built the Spectrum for $7 million, ended up with building costs totalling $10 million Arlen Specter, Philadelphia's district attorney, commented at the time that someone "realized substantial profits by cutting corners at the expense of the city."

The firm has been, on the other hand, directly implicated in the defective construction of the new sports stadium. McCloskey was

Contractor's Superblock Work Termed 'Good9

By ELLEN CAMPBELL Despite recent problems with

flooding in High Rise East and High Rise South, the project director of student housing Thursday rated the overall performance of Superblock's contractors, the Philadelphia firm of McCloskey and Co., as "rather good."

We could have had no housing at all if it hadn't been for their efforts," said Arthur Freedman of the office of planning and design, pointing out that many recent construction strikes added to the contractor's difficulty in building a complex as large as Superblock in less than three years.

Project Director for the Office of Planning and Design Daniel Gorman said Wednesday that the recent flooding in High Rise East was ap- parently caused by the contractor's failure to install the system of water pipes in accordance with the mechanical engineers' plan. He added that the causes of the flooding, which caused an estimated $50,000 of damage, have not yet been fully ascertained.

McCloskey and Co., one of the largest construction firms in the

country, has been criticized in the past for shoddy construction pracitices, for city, state, and national influence-peddling, and for shady- business practices.

The University omitted the usual practice of competitive bidding in building the Superblock complex and

Committee Finalizes Proposals for Majors

By PETER KORN The College Committee on Instruction Thursday finalized its recommendation

for academic major policies in College departments, including two proposals providing for increased student participation in determining major content.

The two proposals state: -That "departments should be encouraged to invite students to participate in discussions of curriculum, prerequisites, requirements, and other departmental procedures relating to the major." -That ". . . all departments establish committees of students to review the existing departmental major programs and to recommend changes."

The other six suggestions encompassed in the report are:

-That each major provide a program flexible enough so that the general student can get a broad knowledge of the field and upon graduating be capable of extending his knowledge on his own; and so that the serious student who wants to go on to graduate school can pursue a more strenuous course of study.

-That each department definitely establish a minimum requirement of 16 course units and hopefully a minimum requirement of 12-14 c.u.

-That each student work out his major program closely with an ad- visor, and if they decide that a departmental requirement is not in the student's best interest, they should petition the appropriate party for an alternate means to fulfill the requirement.

--That each department make courses available which permit seniors to integrate their two or more years of experience in their major programs.

Forum Highlights Preparation For Social Services Careers

ARTHUR FREEDMAN

By BEN GINSBERG

About 50 persons at the "Careers and Counter-Culture" forum were told Thursday night that students who plan to enter the profession of teaching or any of the social services directly upon graduating from a University will not be equipped to do the job competently.

Dr. Peter Buttenweiser, director of the Child Development Center, told the assemblage in the rooftop lounge of High Rise South that if one wants to enter "any of the social services the worst place to come from is a university. A university offers an intellectual, cognitive education. Teaching is more on a human level. You have to know something about kids." He went on to assert that a university can't give this.

These thoughts were echoed by Dr. Frederick Holliday, the principal at Simon Gratz High School in Philadelphia. He explained that his school was virtually all black in composition and that the vast majority of his students were from the lower economic class. By contrast, however, the teachers are 77 per cent white and a large number are Jewish. Holliday said these teachers could not possibly understand or help with the "students who suffer pangs of black- hatred." He summed up the situation by saying that "students from a university do not come equipped to analyze the problems of the kids in the ghetto."

Also on the eight-member panel were Mrs. Joan Countryman, a

teacher at the Germantown Friends School and former director of career planning at the University; Conrad Jones, associate dean of students and educational consultant for the Philadelphia Tutorial Project; Ellen Seigal, a student who has been working in teaching in a ghetto school.

Andy Gilman, also a student who is involved in teaching; and Dr. Ingrid Walden. assistant professor of Biology and a faculty sponsor of the Ex- perimental College. The Rev. Guilford Dudley, acting dean of students, served as moderator for the forum.

{Continued from pugf I the graduate towers, and instead, negotiated contracts with selected construction firms in the spring of 1968. The Daniel J. Keating Co. was chosen to build the graduate towers, while McCloskey and Co. were picked to build the seven-building Superblock complex.

Freedman described the University's decision to omit com- petitive bidding as "a matter of judgement." He said the desperate need for student housing and the rising construction costs forced the University to act as quickly as possible, and accepting bids would have pushed construction back at least a year.

All of the contractors involved in a bidding process could not be aware of the many problems involved in building Superblock, Freedman said, and one contractor, hired during the design stages of the project, could work with architects and engineers to keep costs within the University targets.

Along with the University Office of Planning and Design, a special trustee committee on construction chaired by Britton Chance, and the Superblock overseers, Meridian Engineering, Inc., had evaluated all of the large Philadelphia contractors and had generally felt that McCloskey

Freedman said. "I coudn't tell you who first said McCloskey."

The University, on the basis of tentative construction plans, then negotiated a contract with McCloskey and Co., fixing the price of the com- plex at a point somewhere between McCloskey estimates and the figures submitted by University-retained engineers and architects.

The total cost of Superblock is a projected $56.6 million, of whiclyjbout $29 million will eventually be paid to the McCloskey firm as construction costs.

When asked if the University was aware of previous difficulties in buildings erected by the McCloskey company, Freedman replied that McCloskey had a reputation as a qualified builder, and that choice of builder is a matter entirely different from the problem of negligence in the building.

Contractual provisions, including a one-year guarantee against repairs and deficiencies, and the custom of retaining a certain percentage of the building costs until the structure is satisfactorily completed, protect the University financially from the contractor's negligence.

•'We didn't feel that we needed any special protection from the Mc- Closkey Co.," he said, "and if we did, there are sufficient clauses in the contract to protect us."

He noted that all of the contractor's estimates were checked by the Planning and Design office, the University's architects, Eshbach, Pullinger, Stevens, and Bruder, and Meridian Engineering, Inc.

McCloskey and Co. have built three other buildings on campus .

The Noyes Conference : Mead and Goodman on Man and Machine

:

By LINDA SELTZER

The following is the second of two articles on The Arthur P. Noyes Memorial Conference on Man and Machine held Oct. 16, at which Paul Goodman and Margaret Mead were featured speakers. The speeches below are edited from the reporter's

notes.

MARGARET MEAD Margaret Mead showed her great

compassion for people in her speech. Emphasizing individual responsibility, she refused to take the lazy path of blaming problems on the ambiguous "machine." The prolific author of a

anthropological studies is Curator Emeritus at the American Museum of Natural History.

Paul Goodman talked about the fact that people made bad predictions. But the reason that we don't have 1984 is because Orwell wrote it. In the time of Joe McCarthy, it was clear to social scientists that he wouldn't be ef- fective, first of all because his statistics were wrong, and Americans don't believe you when your statistics are wrong, but also because Americans who thought that something would happen did something about it. What corrected the extremes of that period was based on a worry of that period.

We don't want to talk about false predictions, but the nature of prophesy itself, which always has false prophets, both prophets of doom and optimism.

Many books about doom were written in the last year. There will be a happy America in the next year because doom is unfashionable. Predicting something will happen is making sure it won't happen. If you make a prediction, it has a great ef- fect on society and on people.

The over-optimistic prophesy lulls people to sleep. The pessimistic policy arouses people to action. An over- pessimistic prophesy causes people to do nothing.

I'm a post agnostic. I had a great.

MARGARET MEAD great grandfather who was thrown out of a Unitarian church for heresy.

I have lived on the edge of technological competence. And I have seen what it means to people to have an easier way to chop a tree.

Man's biggest misconception about technology is to anthropormophize. People say "technology creates," or "technology destroys." Technology does nothing! What we do with technology means something.

I see every machine and the stone ax in the same sequence. One of our big ethical problems is that most of the religious establishment believes that all innovation before the birth of Christ is good and all inventions after Christ are bad

The young people's notion is that science is outside of men and could take over men. Primitive people have myths about axes, that the axes will come and chop down trees when the people are not there.

We make tools to extend outselves, and then break off this part of our- selves. We fear that the broken off part of ourselves (the machine) will ovrreome and rule the person. First,

we want to invent something that does something better, then we scare ourselves to death with the fact that we've done it. Even arms and legs can become separate, as in one primitive culture where the spirits are arms and legs that come and get you. We make extensions of the body and then try to disown them.

A recent Geneva convention brought together theologians, scientists, and technologists, finally after 2000 years. We tried to say that computers only do what they put into them. But at the end, a computer specialist made an impassioned speech about what computers do if we don't enslave them.

But that's merely a figure of speech. He anthropomorphized, making the computer into a creature. The problem is not enslavement of people by computers. It is en- slavement of one human by another.

We must realize that the machine is something we have made and is part of us, including weapons and missiles. The machine is natural for man's adaptiveness. Man was a helpless creature until he could attack at a distance.

People say "'look what the machine is doing to human life." Young people say "technology is doing something to us." It's terribly popular to talk about dehumanization of life by machines, instead of dehumanization by the forms of social and political organization we have and the ways in which we have used the machine.

We must accept the fact that these machines are man-made, even the ones that kill. We must accept com- plete responsibility for them as part of ourselves and part of evolution. If we're going to treat machines as part of ourselves, as potentially for good or for evil, we must treat the machines with attitudes appropriate to full human aspects, with respect and dignity. Our general attitude is that they're so cheap that you can smash them. We forget that they are built to extend man's humaneness. Children, from the beginning, are taught to break toys.

To attack science and machines is no solution.

In correction of Mr. Duhl, a tribe has three generations of people who are biologically related to each other. Tribes should be differentiated from sections of society or common interest groups. One tribe in the United States has been found, the travelers in the South. They are nomadic, from the pre-Civil War days, and Catholic. It's taboo for them to marry outside of the tribe. They paint barns and lay linoleum kitchen floors to make a living. They gather at home each year for Easter and the World Series.

Paul Goodman says we should solve a few crucial problems and then get on in human life. But we have to realize that there are three billion people in the world. We need to use our technological knowledge to make this planet a safe place to live. We need a grid which covers the entire planet, within which power, com- munication, and fuel could be disseminated. Within this grid, we could build the small communities we want. Only if we work on a large scale to ensure communication, power, and safe transportation, can we build small communities where there is choice.

Today people talk about scale: macroscale, microscale. Mezzoscale is wicked at present. That's where we live. Everything is the wrong size. The political system is the wrong size.

Technology should serve us as our hand serves us. Technology is not used correctly now. We are using it to pollute the world instead of to give it what we want.

If we're going to have the vision to get us through the next 25 years, we have to include the entire planet and solar system, too. No solution can be achieved by moving a few people to the country. We need a solution to care for three billion people. They can only be cared for through optimum (not maximum) use of technology.

We cannot solve problems by- giving everyone the same standard of living that all wealthy Americans have now. That is impossible for the rest of the world. This country must be willing to set up patterns of human relationships which involve the ex- penditure of less natural resources. We need new patterns of living and human relationships that emphasize community and cease to emphasize

We need community resources. Our technological inventiveness should not harm the rest of the world, as we harm them today.

The young are asking for sim- plification, dealing with the essen- tials, building a community where a child can have a choice.

We must think of the world as a whole. We need not destroy with envy the rest of the world that we have brought into communication with ourselves.

On attitudes to the Vietnam war: People who experienced World War II believe "if we hadn't fought in Guadalcanal, Japan would have bombed California." And they believe all Asians are alike. Their idea of policy is to stop foreign invaders. The post World War II generation believes: we belong to one race. Both sides are cruel.

The children say their parents are murderers. The parents are not murderers, because murder is killing those whom you say it is unethical to kill. The generation gap is a gap in perception. The children think it is unethical to kill anyone. Parents should not feel too much guilt. And the children should not have such a disproportionate amount of anger, because it is so difficult for people to speak to each other at all.

PAUL GOODMAN

Paul Goodman is the author of "Growing Up Absurd," "Compul- sory Miseducation," "New Re- formation: Notes of a Neolithic Conservative," and, most recently,

a book of poetry. His presentation was elegant, but he ignored the seriousness of environment problems and refused to accept political re- alities.

In the first speech, Dr. Garber mentioned "future shock," which we know almost nothing about but which

• is probably the most important mental state. Dr. Hollomon said that during his personal crisis "his world crashed in." These remarks indicate confusion.

An example of confusion: in the previous speeches there was much talk about the rate of change in society as caused by advances in technology. Garber's view was that technology is changing society so quickly that people are unable to cope. Holloman disagreed, saying that the adaption of technology to society in general is really slow and that social change, as exemplified in educational systems, is also slow. The issue is being confused. We should understand that there are two types of change. A technical improvement diffuses quickly. But cultural changes, as in taboos like sex or in burial rites, diffuse slowly. We're willing to buy Danish ham, but not the Danish at- titude on pornography, although they're both equally excellent.

In United States foreign aid, we bring not only our machines, but our culture. Developing countries, recently brought into the present American culture, are even more confused than Americans adapting to their own social and technological changes. When a tribe picks up a foreign culture, the tribe becomes colonialized. It has lost its tribal in- tegrity and the people still have the problem of coping in the culture.

The religion of people has become science, religion being the thing that you do, especially when you don't know anything about it. The more knowledgeable (people) about science are skeptical about what science can do, but the others have faith. To the young, science has turned from a religion of God to a religion of the devil. It's true but bad.

In a changing society, persons becoming newly acculturated lose integrity and become confused. But this is unacceptable when the religion is science, under which you're not supposed to be confused. The con- fusion drives people to irrationality.

In the early capitalist system, the change from mercantilism to laissez faire encouraged inventiveness and increased the amount of brains

operating. People thought the system would be guided by an invisible hand, with people not buying goods they didn't need. But laissez faire was broken by the tariff laws of the United States, which created monopolies, operating on a larger scale without market check.

When modern technology began there was a series of bad guesses about what the consequences of technology would be. Ralph Nader has on his office wall an editorial from an 1899 newspaper, which praises the coming of the automobile. There will

PAUL GOODMAN

now, because of the automobile, be clean and quiet cities because there will be no horse manure and because the cars will have rubber tires.

Geddes wrote that with the thrust of technology we can now begin to disperse. He wrote that people don't need to congregate around the steam engine anymore. They can live on domestic farms and the automobile will give them necessary access to other places. < I wish that modern technology had caused this disper- sal ).

It is estimated that 3-5 million tourists per year will visit Hawaii. Hawaii has a population of 800.000. It is being taken away from the Hawaiians. People should go to beautiful places, but if 5 million go to Hawaii it will be desperately crumby. Wherever young people congregate, they turn the place into a slum ( referring to rock festival sites), even though they have the best in- tentions of tribalism and love of the earth.

More bad guesses are the prophesies of doom. When I wrote "Growing Up Absurd," "1984" was the model for social criticism. Whyte's "Organization Man" was based on that. The idea was that everybody was being robotized. But just the opposite is happening. Rather than being regimented, all the cockroaches are coming out of the walls: women's liberationists, gay liberationists. students demanding power. Women are boycotting supermarkets, which would have been unheard of in the 1950's.

As for the threat of brainwashing - it's for the birds. In Czechoslovakia, the Russians had control of the up- bringing of the young and all these people ought to have been brain- washed and regimented. These people are now 21, and the young population there exploded. The brainwashing had no effect whatsoever. I think that there is such a thing as brainwashing, but it has to be accomplished by ac- tual animal fright, like if your brother or uncle vanishes from the street.

Regimentation or Depression?

Everybody complains that the educational system is regimenting, but nobody's being regimented. Everybody's depressed, but nobody's regimented.

People say that modern society is regimenting. But the people in New York look so sad, they look so depressed - they look so human.

With the idea that the mass of mankind is growing poorer, Americans made an effort to give foreign aid. But all foreign aid has been to the disadvantage rather than to the advantage of the recipients. The tribal patterns were destroyed by

instant urbanization. The intentions were good, but the results were harmful.

The atom bomb is equally im-/ portant to human ignorance.

Human prophesies have been h&d guesses, and human plans, despite good intentions, have often turned out to be harmful. Panic anxiety is^aused by all this confusion resulting from human ignorance.

One manifestation of p/nic anxiety is the belief that new/technological innovations will solve/old problems. Another is the tendency of the young to politicize everything. "All of the problems will be ^olved if we get the power," is what the students are saying. Early/in the days of the protest movernent, the young tried to diminish power, but now students have a power drive from confusion.

While' we adhere to beliefs resulting from panic anxiety, nobody considers rational ideas. A study said it would take $50 million to make New York liveable, but nobody wants to talk about dispersing it. It's not taken seriously. On the idea of the necessary rising expectations of people, we feel it's good to develop other countries, but there is not the energy and resources for 3 billion people to live at the American level. The most valuable single educational reform would be to abolish the schools.

To solve problems, we need prudence, temperance, courage, and justice. As for the search for new values: The Jewish ethics on creation and nature are to fear the Ix>rd and don't go too far. The Christian ethic added compassion and getting into contact with the other person. The enlightenment told us to tell the truth (the ethic of science). What more do we need?

Since people cannot always predict the consequences of their inventions and actions, when facing problems we should do as any good psychotherapist would do: detensify the conditions instead of solving the problems. This isn't turning back the clock, but ad- justing the clock if it's too fast. Every good clock has an adjuster.

How do we detensify the con- ditions0 First, note that there are different styles of technology. In agricultural technology, the Dutch and Danish do intensive agriculture, while the Americans have extnesive agriculture. There are also different styles of taxation.

I would make as a maxim at this point: give a blank check to science and invention, for exploration is in the human spirit, but put a moratorium

innovation. We should innovate r^nly to simplify the system and solve emergency problems. Of course I realize this is impossible in the United States.

InU.S.foreign aid, instead of giving countries the whole technological package (Greyhound buses and all), give them aid to get them past

disease, drudgery, and hunger, using exquisite science. A style of technology for achieving these goals is intermediate techology, which asks: What can be done with native materials, labor, tribal patterns, and skills to get the people past disease drudgery, and hunger? Don't give them our technology. Let the other countries take off afterwards at their own speed. This will prevent cultural imperialism.

The United States ought to do some rural reconstruction to increase the number of people who are in- dependent. About 20% would be a good percentage of people doing agriculture. Let the countryside solve problems. Instead of locking people in asylums, let them work for farmers. I-et welfare recipients spend their money anywhere - to go to the country, to leave the United States - instead of making them sign in New York as they do now. Education can be done in country areas. My idea of increasing the number of people doing subsistence farming is similar to the idea of the Black Muslims. I find the Black Muslim mind and mine seem to go together, largely because I'm Jewish.

If there is a 5% water shortage in a city, move 5% of the people out of the cities to alleviate the 5% shortage. Problems can be solved on a 2,3, or 5% basis. When you detensify the conditions, you don't have a crisis mentality. The aim of politics is to make conditions tolerable, then let the important parts of life - friends, science, sex, art - go on. God forbid the people in Washington should do something about the "quality of life." What do they know about that? Poets, lovers, and good friends determine the quality of life.

We should solve the crucial problems and leave all else alone. We should detensify the conditions of confusion.

Rizzo: Politics of Elitism The recently announced Stop-

Rizzo-for-Mayor Campaign ad- vertized on the pages of The Daily Pennsylvanian places the student and liberal population of this city on a collision course with the white middle class of Philadelphia. I firmly believe that this concerted attack on Police Commissioner Frank Rizzo will prove politically counterproductive; but more than that, the movement exhibits a grave misunderstanding of the behavior of the working class and middle class, and reveals a presumptuous attitude that the views toward social change held by the supporters of the campaign are the only correct ones. These misun- derstandings and presumptions will continue to generate an adverse effect on Philadelphia long after any Rizzo victory.

to making him popular. Although one may say that the

behavior displayed by the middle class has not always been rational, there is at least a basis for the irrationality. Their reflex reactions are in response to real problems worthy of attention, and one cannot escape the complexities of these problems by writing off a whole segment of the population as "reactionaries."

I turn my attention now to the college students, many of whom have expressed the most severe hostility and hatred towards the working class and the middle class, and some of whom are among the organizers of the present Stop-Rizzo campaign. Charles Reich, in his new book, "The Greening of America," has embraced the college youth culture. The youth

'Frank Rizzo is not merely an individual:

he is the representative of an entire mood

among many Philadelphians (and

Americans, generally)'

Let me begin by dispensing with the short-run political impact of the Stop-Rizzo campaign. Frank Rizzo is not merely an individual; he is the representative of an entire mood among many Philadelphians (and Americans,generally). Consequently, any frontal assault on Rizzo is likely to be construed as an attack on the populace from which he derives his strength. In that sense alone, a political campaign directed against Rizzo can only have the unfortunate effect of reinforcing the forces of reaction. (I will return to some questions about political strategy at the very end of this analysis.)

The supporters of Rizzo-drawn primarily from the ranks of the white, working class and middle class i blue collar workers, office workers, ethnic minorities) who make up most of the American populace - unlike long-established conservative forces, are strictly a reaction, an instinctive response to the problems enveloping them, to the rhetoric and violence of the extreme left, and to the self- righteousness of the liberal establish- ment.

For example, although members of the middle class vent wrath on anti- war protesters, whom they often regard as unpatriotic, it does not reveal whether they think the war is good or bad. Indeed, many have come to recognize the futility and wastefulness of the war.

Likewise, if in recent years members of the middle class have been hostile towards the progress of the blacks and the priority given to helping the blacks, history reminds us that as a group these people were not responsible for holding back the rise of the blacks. Many - particularly those from the ethnic minorities - have been engaged in a struggle for survival and acceptance themselves. It is only in relatively recent years that the maintenance of their patterns of residency, employment, and education has been threatened by blacks because of the simple fact of their presence. The liberals deter- mined that blacks were deserving and in need, and on those grounds further determined that these needs would be met by concessions of various kinds from the ethnic minorities - most notably, in Philadelphia and New York, the Italians. These ethnic groups resisted and were promptly further judged to be opposed to helping the deserving and needy, and were characterized as racists.

The crime issue may be viewed in

culture, he observes, represents an affinity with nature, and expression of freedom and true egalitarianism, and he asserts that the world will be transformed by a revolution in con- sciousness transmitted through this new culture. I believe that Professor Reich offers us a very superficial reading of the younger generation. As Kenneth Keniston and Michael I-erner noted in a recent article: "Many (students) show great empathy for the downtrodden, oppressed and poor, but astonishingly little empathy for working-class and middle-class Americans. Many pride themselves on oeing a post-Freudian generation, but are bad psychologists with little awareness of how painful it is for people to change the convictions and values on which they have built their lives." Similar observations have been made by such individuals as Eugene Genovese, the Marxist historian, and Saul Alinsky, the community organizer. Contrary to Professor Reich, I would characterize many aspects of the youth culture which he finds so attractive as a new

elite, eastern schools. The result is that today the university is composed of blacks and certain elements among the whites—certainly not a microcosm of the real world around us - and the effect, politically and sociologically, has been to reinforce the coalition between blacks and white liberals against the middle class ethnic minorities. Channels of com- munication have been closed tight, the opportunities for upward mobility into the power structure among the ethnic minorities have been forestalled, and the angry reaction of these elements to changes taking place around them has been intensified.

I have taken this long route to assert that the politics represented by the Stop-Rizzo campaign, in my judgment, are dead wrong. We must begin with a reexamination of our- selves and the adoption of a more realistic political approach.

The demand for relevance has fostered a student generation without direction or permanent commitment. Students have rushed from concern for the blacks and the urban crisis, to anger over the Vietnam war, ROTC and the military, to enthusiasm for ecology, the Black Panthers and Women's Liberation, leaving each preceding issue to suffer the pains of premature neglect. When the novelty and glamour of an issue has worn off or the promise of immediate success has disappeared, students have begun their quest for something new. Suc- cess cannot be built on any short-run outbursts of anger or enthusiasm. These comments are not meant to belittle the important function students have served in drawing attention to these issues. I am merely suggesting thtat we need to approach our problems with less hysteria and more calm, with less emotion and more reason, with less dilettantism and more commitment, with less haste and more patience.

We need a restoration of the ad- versary system in which all viewpoints and ideas are brought out into the open i a point, by the way, on which I am in agreement with Charles Reich). The success of any system depends on the continued competition among differing interests and points of view, which means that all groups and ideas must be permitted to be heard. Attempts to compel univer- sities to adopt institutional viewpoints stifles the kind of healthy competition

rather than a candidate to oppose'

expression of elitism. As Eric Hoffer has said, the youth generally "have no use for common folk who work and moonlight to take care of their own ... They reserve their wrath for the in- stitutions in which common people are most represented: unions, Congress, the police, and the Army." The working class and middle class have a different life style, no less valid than that of the college youth.

It would perhaps be bad enough if liberals and college students restricted expression of their an- tipathy towards the middle class to name-calling, but, in my view, they have done much more in an un- conscious manner to widen the communications gap between themselves and the middle class.

Responding to guilt feelings about the plight of the blacks in America, white, liberals in the mid-sixties decided to open the doors of the private, eastern universities to the blacks, and, somewhat later, to the ghetto blacks. But they did so with-

a similar light. For the large numbers of the working class and middle class who live in Philadelphia, the in- cidence of crime is a real issue in their daily lives, and any talk of "getting at the underlying causes of crime" is, at most, of remote significance to them. Of more immediate concern to them is protection against crime - at whatever cost. Faced with a serious problem that affects them directly, they have responded harshly and even repressively at times. It is worth noting that the F.B.I, reported that last year Philadelphia's crime rate was the lowest among 55 cities with populations over 250,000. The record and Rizzo's strong law-and-order stand in achieving it have contributed

out a full understanding of American society or a broad humanitarian com- mitment. We were implicitly informed that society was to be viewed as either black or white, and that, if a group appeared sufficiently deserving, threatening and visible, the op- portunities for advancement in American society by way of the elite, eastern schools would be made available to its members. Con- sequently, to date, little or no at- tention has been given to offering the same opportunities to Puerto Ricans, American Indians, residents of Ap- palachia, or to certain ethnic minorities such as the Italians and Poles, all of whom are un- derrepresented at Penn and similar

which is necessary. There must be a fuller ap-

preciation, recognition, and tolerance for different value systems, and we must cultivate in ourselves the ability to separate our distaste for a value system or a philosophy and our feelings towards persons who hold those values. 11 think one should be able to find racial prejudice improper without despising Southerners.)

In conclusion, I offer a few suggestions concerning the mayoral campaign in Philadelphia. First of all, one must find a candidate to support, rather than a candidate to oppose in order to demonstrate that one has a rational alternative to offer.

Secondly, examine the credentials of all possible candidates (including Rizzo), asking yourself whether the prospective candidate is humane, whether he knows and understands the city, whether he is dedicated to helping the city, whether he is responsive to the city's concerns, whether he can relate to all groups in the city, whether he is honest, whether he can attract federal and state funds to the city, whether he is a competent administrator, and then judge who is the best person to support.

Third, there must be an attempt to achieve unified support. There is already talk of two "liberals" running against a "cviservative" in the Philadelphia primary, which is sure to produce a conservative victor i witness the New York City Democratic primary of 1969 and the New York State Senatorial election of 1970), and if New York does repeat itself in Philadelphia, one should place the blame on political ineptitude and not on bigotry.

Finally, if one is truly interested in having a positive effect on the election outcome, he must be prepared to commit yourself to campaign work from this day forward. One cannot expect to enter a campaign in the final two months or even six months and transform the attitudes of thousands of people. It requires a tireless effort and if unsuccessful it may only mean that more time was needed. It may also indicate that one's values and views were not accepted by enough of the electorate.

The Gay Revolution Penn has a poor conception of the

gay section of the revolution.

Here's a little background in it. Our dying culture's (not to be misinterpreted as dying nation. Our nation can exist with a new culture.) ideas are based on Darwin's idea of the struggle for survival. The culture said that the struggle for survival was the law of nature so the only way it could see men relating was by com- peting. But men can also relate to each other in a loving way. The Darwinian culture cut out this possibility in order to direct all at- tention to the idea of competition. The idea that men can relate to one another in a loving way is the most antithetical to the old culture; thus, it

is the most basic idea in the formation of a new culture. This idea is what i liberation stands for. Thus, liberation is the most basic part of/the revolution.

In the past, liberals/ and revolutionaries were unable t/accept this most basic part of the revolution. As I have already said,/he logical implication of the revohition is love for rather than competition with one's own sex. Noticing this/frnplication, the people of the old/culture called liberals and revolutionaries by the old culture's stro/gest anathema, "faggots" ( remember "effete, in- tellectual snobs"), those who love rather than compete with members of their own sex. Being in a transition period and finding it necessary to

identify themselves with some old values, the liberals and revolutionaries cowered in fear at being called such a name and denied that what they had to say had any connection with "faggots." Th^y were not ready to break with the most deep- rooted part of the old culture. That's why gay liberation was so late in coming to the surface. Now, hopefully, with more activity in gay liberation, it will be possible to identify with all the values of the new culture.

If men could relate lovingly to one another, committing the most car- dinal sin in the old competitive society, that society would go up in smoke. There would be no wars.

Letter to the Editor

SUPERBLOCK SUGGESTION

Editor's note: The author is a graduate student in law and city planning at the University.

Sir: Recent days and recent editions of The Daily Pennsylvanian have evidenced both the mounting criticism directed at the Superblock and at the same time the rising flood of construction defaults.

Yesterday's edition neatly presented the double barrelled attack. An editiorial page column by Jonathan Talmadge presented a perceptive and damning view of the effect of the Superblock as a structure on the University as a community and on its residents as individual human beings. This aspect seems to be one, if my memory holds good, that was largely dismissed in the years of exhaustive planning.

Finally the front page story- presented what we all knew - that the Superblock. in addition to being the barest and cheapest of structures, is shoddily built.

There does appear to be a solution. Since, as one residence officer stated, the University has not yet formally handed over the buildings to the University, why not let whoever it is that owns them now, keep them?

Plenum iContinued from page I)

Thursday night's meeting, at- tended by approximately 25 students, authorized the administrative com- mittee to receive proposals related to these three areas until the deadline, and then choose the items for the final agenda

Student members of the University Council have submitted a series of questions on these three issues for the plenum. Dick Clarke, a member of the Council who authored the proposal on athletics, emphasized at the meeting, "We called the plenum in order to be in"tructed by the students on these issues. "

•As many options as people submit to the administrative committee should be voted on at the plenum," the red-haired and -bearded junior suggested. If they are conflicting or merely phrased differently, he added, the committee can resolve the dif- ferences.

(Continued from page 11 charged with defrauding the city for substituting inferior materials for those of higher quality called for in the original contract.

The grand jury brought in- dictments against McCloskey and several other firms, but these were subsequently squashed by the Superior Court on a technicality. Specter is presently reported to be reintroducing these indictments.

Despite the fact that these are the most widely known attacks against McCloskey's building credentials, they are certainly not the most flagrant.

In 1950, McCloskey was con- tracted by the federal government to construct a veterans' hospital in Boston. The firm entered the lowest bid-$10.5 million.

Shortly after the building's com- pletion in 1952, bricks began "spalling." breaking out in small groups, and eventually this led to a

fallout of over 4000 windows. The hospital was forced to set up barricades outside the edifice, to protect employees and visitors from falling bricks.

Finally, in 1964, the Justice Department began processing a $4.9 million suit to compensate for repairs which had to be made to continue the hospital's operations. The govern- ment charged in a federal court during the summer of 1964 that Mc- Closkey had "made numerous departures from the original contract design."

Thomas McCloskey, the president of the company, denied these charges, blaming the problem on "insufficient, inadequate, and defective drawings" which the builders followed strictly.

Several months later the trial was adjourned and private negotiations continued between the government and McCloskey. Then, in 1967, a $1.6 million settlement was reached, as McCloskey refused to comment on his earlier denials of responsibility.

But the success of any legal suit against the McCloskey family firm is

peculiar to its biography. For example, in May of 1957,

Pennsylvania General Hospital charged that McCloskey had faultily constructed the hospital's food service building. Following severe water seepage in the building the hospital asked McCloskey for $70,000 to repair the edifice. The firm was cleared however, when the courts determined that the architects rather than the constructors were liable for the damage.

Besides these attacks based on alleged defective construction, the McCloskey family has faced frequent charges of using its influence in the Democratic party to procure both federal and state contracts.

Matthew McCloskey, chairman of the board, has held numerous in- fluential positions in the party, during the past four decades. During the 1930's he served as the Philadelphia's Democratic co-chairman and later was the party's national treasurer, chief fund raiser for the Johnson- Humphrey ticket in 1964 and U.S. Ambassador to Ireland during the Kennedy administration.

In 1964, the Federal Bureau of Investigation began to examine McCloskey's alleged •impropriety"

in the company's procurement of the $19.8 million District of Columbia sports stadium contract. Then in 1964, McCloskey was brought before a Senate committee investigating charges that Matthew McCloskey had conferred with Bobby Baker, who was later convicted by a federal grand jury for misusing his powers as secretary to the Senate majority, prior to the award of the contract.

It was subsequently charged that McCloskey received the stadium contract, only after providing a $25,000 kickback to be used for the Johnson campaign. An insurance agent, Daniel Reynolds, told the Senate committee that he had handled the transaction, which took the form of an overpayment of insurance bills.

Despite assertions from members of the committee that McCloskey was "more a Democratic politician than a building constructor" he was cleared of all charges in 1966. McCloskey said at the time that the overpayment was due to an employee's "goof" and denied that he had "plotted to provide the Democrats with funds."

Then Pennsylvania Democratic Senator Joseph Clark told reporters, "McCloskey gave a quite a different account of the chain of events and his testimony was as candid and con- niving as Reynolds' was devious and inconsistent."

Questions of propriety also arose when McCloskey was contracted to build the new House of Represen- tatives office building. In all phases of construction, the firm, after being awarded the contracts, revised its bid, and without any hesitation on the part of the government, received all the additional funds requested. The ad- ditions allegedly cost an estimated $7 to $10 million, above the original contract figure.

Superseding the original estimate to such an extent, is unusual in building contracts, since the bid of- fered by the contracter is expected to cover all costs. This led many Senators to charge that only Mc- Closkey's close ties to the Democratic party permitted such an arrangement to occur.

McCloskey never officially responded to these attacks.

On the state level, the construction firm was charged 31 years ago with illegally receiving prebidding in- formation on the Norristown hospital project. McCloskey, which at that time was said to have one-third of all contracts awarded by the state, allegedly revised its bid after receiving information from sources within the Democratic ad- ministration.

Matthew McCloskey denied the charges, commenting that "there is no truth in them," but the federal government refused to allocate previously promised funds, follo\ an investigation by Pennsylvania's attorney generals' office.

The McCloskey story does not end here. The company, during the past 30 years, has faced other less serious charges. Included among these are

-The defective construction of seven Philadelphia public schools (1936),

-Employing political pressure to obtain the contract for the federal mint building in Philadelphia 11966 and

-Construction of unlivable hous development in South Philadelphia (1963).

Despite the fact that in the majority of these cases McCloskey firm was not found directly culpable, it is apparent that the company has not been "holier than thou." In fact, the Truman War Investigating Committee closely scrutinized certain McCloskey activities and charged the firm with "rapacity, greed, fraud and negligence."

And this is the McCloskey story.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THE COMPULSORY BLUE CROSS

PLAN ($35.) You weren,t asked if you wanted this coverage (nor was any

appropriate consultative committee of students and faculty).

So think about it before you automatically pay up.

There are rumors that you may be reimbursed for any Blue Cross coverage you already have. THESE ARE ONLY RUMORS. There has

been no firm commitment from Blue Cross.

We urge you: 1) find out from your parents if you already

have a Medical Insurance Program: find out

how good it is. 2) find out who pays for your present coverage:

you, your parents or your parents, employers.

If you are not now covered by a good plan: Enroll in the Student Health Plan

If you are covered by a plan that are that you are paying for: Enroll in the Student

Health Plan as soon as you present coverage lapses. Do not pay your $35.00 until

your current plan Is lapses.

If you are covered by a plan that is an employee benefit: Do not enroll

in the Student Health Plan. The University Hospital will accept your other plan,

although you will not be placed in the Student Ward.

Should you choose not to participate in the Student Health Plan, do not be

intimidated by threats from lower echelon administrators. You can not be penalized

there are too many of us.

Committee on Instruction (Continued from page I)

-"That departments should be encouraged to set up in- terdepartmental major if there is some demand for them."

-That "departments should also be encouraged to establish freshman and sophomore level interdisciplinary courses in the humanities and social sciences, and interdisciplinary seminars for seniors and juniors in a number of areas."

The final report is a modified version of one presented to the Committee on Instruction by an ad hoc committee appointed by Dean William Stephens in November of 1969. The Ad Hoc Committee, made up of faculty and students from both the College and the College for Women, was under the chairmanship of Dr. Joel Conarroe, assistant professor of English.

Dr. Eugene Nixon, chemistry professor and chairman of the College Committee on Instruction, said the report will go from his committee to the next meeting of the College faculty, where it will be discussed and, hopefully, endorsed by that body.

If the report is approved by the College faculty the information contained in it will be disseminated to the individual departments which Nixon said he would expect to take every action to conform to the policies stated therein.

Conarroe, saying the report was "nothing revolutionary," added that the ad hoc committee was formed as a subgroup of the Committee on In- struction to formulate guidelines for

its policy towards majors. At the time the subcommittee was commissioned to do the report there was some question as to what the role of majors should be in response to the then-re- cent changes in departmental course requirements, Conarroe said in relating the history behind his com- mittee. As a result of the Walmsley Report of early 1969, which initiated the open major and removed the 40- course requirement, Conarroe con- tinued, there was some confusion as to whether all majors should have the same number of required courses, and as to what changes should be made to accommodate students who were taking a major, but not taking it as a pre-professional program.

Nixon said the final report differs from the one done by the ad hoc committee in that recommendations concerning individualized majors have been removed from it. This was because the Committee on Instruction is presently doing its own report on individualized majors and in- dependent study, he said. He added that this report being done by his committee will take into account both those parts deleted from the ad hoc committee's report, and relevant passages from the report of The Committee on the Goals of Higher Education, better known as the Wilf Report.

Nixon, who is in complete agreement with the points contained in the report, said that some depart- ments are probably doing what the report suggests already, and that some probably aren't.

Plenum Agenda Meeting (Continued from page '• i

feelings, recommends that "should the administration determine that major budget cutbacks are necessary, major cutbacks in intercollegiate athletics should precede the enlarging of class and course sizes or the reduction of general financial aid."

In addition, the proposal states the University "should not continue to participate in all league sports," but instead should have a "select sports" policy.

Furthermore, the proposal asks for a vote on whether "the recruitment and admission of non-academically qualified students in a special athletic admission policy' should cease."

Bill Tortu, another member of the Council, submitted a series of proposals concerning tuition and financial aid. The resolution deals with such issues as whether students are willing to accept a tuition in- crease, and whether they "consider a heavier emphasis on loans" to be a reasonable reshuffling of the financial aid package. Tortu's*rScommendation

also suggests that students sue the University "if it reneges on its finan- cial aid commitment as stated in the Bulletin."

A proposal suggesting that financial aid students establish themselves as a "special-interest group," was submitted by John Burk, a first year dental student. This group would assist the University by per- forming secretarial tasks related to financial aid and also seek new ways of aiding and finding money for financial aid students.

Other proposals discussed dealt with using money from student general fees to assist in the renovations of Houston Hall, and giving gift status for tax purposes, to that segment of full tuition which goes towards other students' financial aid.

Predicting that approximately 350 students would come to the plenum, Clarke, however, noted that if the plenum were postponed until next term, the budget cuts would already be decided. In addition, Clarke declared, "We only claim that the plenum represents only those who attend it."

74 HoopstersHope For Naval Disaster

Fresh off an overwhelming 103-69 triumph over Rutgers yesterday afternoon, the Quaker yearlings travel to Navy tomorrow for an af- ternoon tilt with the always-tough Middies.

Navy, who gave the frosh a rough time last year before bowing 90-75, are always in shape and well-drilled. Like the Red and Blue, they employ a rugged man-to-man defense.

"The Navy game is always tough," commented coach Ray Carazo." •They're always moving toward the

basket. We're going to have to be more aware of being on the side of the court where the ball is. We also have to knock off the "dumb" foul."

"I was pleased with everybody's performance in the Rutgers game, especially with the way the reserves filled in." continued Carazo.

Yearling Squash The frosh counterparts of their big

brother racquetmen will try to make an equally impressive showing in their season opener against the Naval Academy on Saturday at 2 p.m. at the Ringe Courts.

With Bombay native Denis Nayak followed closely by Danny Roblin, a Nichols graduate, and Steve Mar- shall, of Penn Charter and Choate, the frosh have an unusually strong top three.

Tom Peck and Jay Lippincott, both from Episcopal Academy, hold down the fourth and fifth positions, with George Elliot, J.C. Clark, Henry- Harper, Andy Finn, and Mike Chadwick completing the yearling lineup.

Freshmen Matmen The Quaker frosh wrestling squad,

which ex-varsity grappling coach Don Frey terms the best yearling team to come to Penn in many a year, opens its season tomorrow against Lafayette at 12:30 P.M. in the Palestra. It will mark the coaching debut of Dave Pottruck, who just last season was 190-pound varsity co- captain and finished fourth at the Eastern championships.

Lafayette First Meal for Hungry Matmen? By GLENN UNTERBERGER

A prosperous wrestling team has become a tradition at Penn, but this winter the matmen will be a little leaner, and a lot hungrier.

In three previous seasons the Quakers have copped two firsts and a second in Ivy League competition, but graduation has taken away five of last year's ten starters, and it is a sure bet that the grapplers will be hard- pressed to duplicate the success of their predecessors.

There will be a lot of new faces when the Red and Blue face off against Lafayette at 2 P.M. on the

before Charlie Wood pulled off a narrow victory, 14-15, 15-7, 7-15, 15-8, 15-14 when Jacobs had called no set at 13 all.

Soph Chris Sadkowski made a successful varsity debut and went home happy with an 18-15,12-15,18-16, 15-8 win over Herb Stockton despite loud cheers from the Middies for his opponent, who spent the greater part of his time on the floor. Senior Rick Wheeler also took a 3-1 win from Clay Stiles. After losing the first game, Wheeler won three consecutive games, 15-13, 15-9, 15-10.

Soph Steve Pike started the last match of the day and finished last in a tough five game match. Losing the first two games to Craig Dawson he won two close ones 15-14 and 15-13 before dropping the final game 15-12.

In junior varsity play Randy Abrams was the only Penn winner as he beat Jack Sherer 3-1 while Gil Perlman and Jim Coleman lost 1-3 and 2-3, respectively.

Overall Navy play was charac- terized by hard-hitting as the Quakers showed much more finesse to stop the matches from turning into slam fests.

Palestra mats tomorrow. And the biggest change will be in the coaching position.

Nine-year mentor Don Frey, the master designer of the Penn wrestling machine, retired last season, and his job has been inherited by former freshman coach Larry Lauchle.

Lauchle gives the normal non- committal outlook, characteristic of almost any coach during the pre- season, about his wrestlers' chances. "We've got a young team with only two seniors and not much depth. We play a tougher schedule than usual, but if we can avoid injuries the team will be in every match to the finish. It all boils down to the winner being the team that wants to win the most."

Lauchle, a former Olympian, was quick to emphasize the importance of an individual's desire in athletic contests of this type. "Wrestling is a battle of individual versus individual, as opposed to sports like track, which pits man against clock, or football, which demands teamwork. The only way a wrestling team can win is if their individual members do," he pointed out, adding that preparation

Sports Shorts Ticket manager WALTER

LEADER announced that $1.50 student tickets i regular price $6.501 for Thursday night's 7 P.M. basket- ball contest with N.Y.U. at New- York's Madison Square Garden will go on sale Monday - one ticket per matric card, four matric cards per student. Rutgers meets Manhattan in the nightcap of the twinbill.

Tomorrow night's Palestra doubleheader features two stellar attractions. Wake Forest coach JACK McCLOSKEY (who coached Penn to its 1965-66 Ivy title) brings his Demon Deacons featuring 6-1 star guard CHARLIE DAVIS to town to face HARRY LITWACKS Temple Owls in the opener, while the HOWARD PORTER - led Villanova Wildcats 18th in A.P. poll) host Princeton with sophs BRIAN TAYLOR and TED MANAKAS in the second game.

for wrestling requires a lot of self- sacrifice, and that the wrestler who is willing to sacrifice more in order to win will usually come out on top.

Despite the coach's cautious evaluation of the squad, it looks as though there are several matmen who usually will come out on top.

Topping the list of Quaker stan- douts is co-captain Nate Resnick, a 142-pound junior. Resnick was the only undefeated Red and Blue grappler last season, as he finished with a 6-0 record and All-Ivy honors. The 5-7 matman had a habit of overwhelming his opponents by in- credible scores - witness a 20-2 win in Penn's 26-6 mauling of Columbia.

Senior co-captain Don Ingham is another fine grappler who was hampered by injuries last campaign and will hopefully become a steady performer at 177 pounds. Former New- Jersey high school champ Len Pruzanskv, who was undefeated on

the freshman level, 190 pound junior Rick Kaufman, and 150-pounder Bill I^awrence, another undefeated frosh, are matmen of which lauchle expects big things.

One decided advantage that the matmen enjoy this year is that they are scheduled for more home than away meets. "This will definitely be a help to our performance," Lauchle mentioned, noting that a cheering crowd can give a big lift to a wrestler. "Unfortunately wrestling is not as popular in Philadelphia as it is in central Pennsylvania around Lehigh or Penn State, where pandemonium reigns at every meet," he said.

Lafayette is a well-balanced team that will give a good fight, according to Lauchle. Then, in an unusual moment of optimism declared. "We should win."

I^ast year Lafayette fell to the Quakers, 29-7, and this year things shouldn't be much different

Swimmers Aim to Dunk Cornell

By JAY RABINOWITZ

Last year was the first time in 21 seasons that Penn's swimmers splashed to victory over Cornell. Tomorrow at 2 P.M. at Sheerr Pool in Gimbel Gym, George Breen's mer- men will have an opportunity to prove that last winter's 66-47 outcome, was no fluke.

Fresh from a 78-35 warm-up triumph over I^afayette, the Quakers will face a Big Red unit that has what could be the East's top diving combo in Larry Moore and Ken Light.

Cornell coach Pete Carhart also has a talented bunch of sophomores from an undefeated frosh squad of a year ago (which did not swim against Penn).

Breen let all 29 Red and Blue natators get wet against Lafayette Wednesday afternoon, but against Cornell he may not be able to afford that luxoury.

••They're building a strong program and I'll have to go with a strong line-up," said the former Olympic star whose opening line-up would have made the Ringling Brothers' top jugglers proud. "This time I'll employ some more serious shifting in events."

Fencers Visit Leopards' Den

Having carved out a somewhat less than decisive 15-12 win over Rutgers Wednesday in their season debut, coach Lajos Csiszar's fencers travel to Easton tomorrow to meet a I^fayette squad which shouldn't offer too much resistance. The Quakers will try to make their second outing a bit more convincing.

Never regarded as a fencing power, the Leopards last year suf- fered a 20-7 drubbing at the hands of the Red and Blue, and no one expects anything different this time around. At this point, the swordsmen's biggest worries arise when looking ahead to the tough Ivy competition coming up.

Micir Tops Ivies In Total Offense, Passing Statistics

Pancho Micir, Penn's senior quarterback, won the Ivy League passing and total offense titles.

Micir completed 95 passes, 15 more than Jim Chasey of Dartmouth, for 1220 yards and had 1198 yards total offense (he lost 22 rushing i, to end 36 yards ahead of the Indian quar- terback. Chasey, however, had the best passing percentage, completing .576 percent of his aerials.

Ed Marinaro of Cornell and John Short and Wayne Pirmann of Dart- mouth came up with record-breaking performances to win several major Ancient Eight statistical titles.

Big Red halfback Marinaro, closed out his junior year with 203 yards rushing against Princeton to win the Ivy rushing championship for the second straight year. He ended with 1014 yards in 223 carries, breaking his own Ivy standards of 1002 yards in 209 attempts, set last year.

The 6-2, 210-pounder, who won the national rushing title, also set career records with 2016 yards, breaking the record of 1867 set by Cornell's Gary- Wood from 1961 to 1963, and 432 carries, erasing the mark of 360 made by Harvard's Vic Gatto from 1966 to 1968.

Short, Dartmouth's senior half- back won the scoring race with 78

PANCHO MICIR

points, just two under the league record. However, he tied a record held by Bill King of Dartmouth, Calvin Hill of Yale and Brian McCullough with 13 touchdowns. Short finished 28 points ahead of Marinaro. Penn's Bob Hoffman was tied for sixth with 36 points on six touchdowns.

One of Short's teammates, junior Wayne Pinmann kicked 29 extra points, breaking by one the season record set by Princeton's Charlie Gogolak in 1965. Pirmann, a soccer- style kicker, converted 29 of 31 at- tempts and led the league in kick- scoring.

Two Columbia players - junior end Mike Jones and sophomore flanker Jesse Parks -- finished one-two respectively in receiving. Jones caught five passes in the Lions' final game to finish with 29, two more than Parks, who had one catch in the finale after leading the league all season. Parks, however, led the league in receiving yardage with 422. Penn's Bruce Batch was third with 25 receptions, while Pete Luciano (20 and Greg Leavitt (19) were sixth and seventh.

Dartmouth senior, Jay Bennett won the punting title with a 39.1-yard average. He finished ahead of Prin- ceton junior Hank Bjorklund who also was second to Marinaro in rushing. The Quaker's Chris Fisher was sixth at 36.0.

Tom Copper, a Dartmough junior led in punt returns, while Cornell sophomore Mark Piscitelli was first in kickoff returns and Yale senior Ron Kell was the interception leader.

Just as Dartmouth dominated the other Ivy League teams during the season, it dominated the final team statistics, leading in every team total except passing.

The Indians rolled up 3,223 yards of total offense, an average of 460.4 per game. The champions gained 1946 of this total on the ground, the most in the league, and had 1277 yards passing, second only to Penn's 1310. In seven Ivy games Dartmouth scored 234 points, or 33.4 a game.

Dartmouth also controlled the defensive statistics, allowing op- ponents just 1352 yards total offense, 193.1 per contest. This figure was divided evenly, as the Indians gave up 676 yards each passing and rushing. The Green yielded just 28 points, or four per game, while shutting out five of seven foes. The Indians also led in team punting.

Princeton was second in total of- fense, while Yale was runner-up in total defense, scoring and defense against scoring. Penn was seventh in total offense and fifth in team defense.

Icemen Seek First Win On New England Jaunt

the most CZs Gellard tamed once, and Davis got

DAVE ELCOMBE

TIMMcQUISTON

Two straight losses is not the most encouraging way for a team to open a new season, but the varsity hockey team is far from ready to start pushing the panic button. The Quakers have more than held their own in losses to Vermont and Nor- theastern, and a pair of wins over UMass and UConn this weekend would be just what is needed to put the icemen in a winning frame of mind.

In their 6-5 loss to Northeastern last Saturday, the Red and Blue outshot their opponents by an un- believable 62-28, but could not quite overcome the Huskies' early 5-0 lead. All the goals were scored with only- four Penn skaters on the ice.

"We committed too many- penalties, and then could not hold off their power play," related coach Jim Salfi.

The Quakers' number one line of Tim Cutter, Sam Gellard, and Tom Davis showed why they were the highest scoring trio in the nation last year as Cutter registered a hat trick,

Gellard tamed once, and Davis got two assists. All told, the three took 42 shots on net with four of them hitting paydirt.

Billy MacDonell, the leading scorer on last year's freshman squad, notched his first varsity marker for the fifth Quaker score, with soph wing Tom Reid getting the assist.

"Other than those early power plays, the defense played very well and we certainly took enough shots on goal," said Salfi. "We're not being outplayed or outshot, just outscored, and that's what really hurts."

Speaking of hurts, the icemen more than have their share. Goalie John Marks suffered a broken thumb against Northeastern and will be out four to six weeks. Salfi will call on soph Tim McQuiston, who had a very creditable 2.7 goals-against average as a freshman, to guard the Quaker nets.

On offense, Davis and Gellard have lingering hip and elbow injuries, respectively.

The Wrong Way to Do Something Right When the curtain was raised last

night for the final act of Penn's week long Theater of the Absurd, only the two protagonists of the play-Director of Recreation and Intercollegiate Athletics Fred Shabel and ex-Quaker football coach Bob Odell-were not left in the dark.

By the time the curtain fell, however, it didn't take a Clive Barnes to recognize all the flaws in both the plot and characters.

The setting was an appropriate one-the University Museum where the annual banquet honoring the football team was held. The mummies that flanked the podium presented an interesting parallel to the freshly- buried coach. But the mummies had a distinct advantage-they couldn't talk.

Odell debated between the possibilities of 'just saying nothing or replying to the stories" circulated by the local press. He selected neither alternative, and instead reflected on his coaching career: "I've been a football coach for 24 years and I've loved very minute of it....I can't imagine doing anything else for the next 24 vears."

Analysis This emotional outburst was

completely contradictory to his for- mal 'resignation" statement where he gave as a reason for his decision: "I have been coaching for 24 years and I felt this was a time to sit back and review my career."

Somehow it doesn't seem kosher for a man that had willfully decided to leave his alma mater to have to fight back tears in his farewell address.

The majority of the Penn football players did not think that the coach had left on his own volition, but no one would say so for direct quote. Last week Odell told 1970 Penn captain Jim Fuddy he was planning to continue coaching.

Newly-elected captain John Curley, one of the more out-spoken members of the squad, commented: "I was surprised because I know he loves football and I know he loves Penn. I never expected to see him resign."

Many others felt that Odell was forced out of thejob, one season sooner than anticipated, with one year remaining on his contract. Quater-

FRED SHABEL

back Pancho Micir best summed up the sentiment of the majority of his teammates: "It seems funny a coach would leave when the team is on the way up." "I was surprised," said junior end Chris Shead.

Many were reluctant to talk. "I'd rather say nothing than what I have on mind," commented senior Greg Leavitt.

Nevertheless, even the players have no conception of what went on in Thanksgiving Eve's sessions with Shabel, Odell, President Meyerson, and Provost Goddard. Last Tuesday's team meeting with Shabel failed to provide any answers. "We asked him questions and he didn't answer any of them directly," said sophomore Steve Solow.

No one had any doubts about Odell's virtue as a man who cared for his players off the field as well as on it. You can't help but like his mild per- sonality, and his speech which is punctuated by as much corn as grows in his native state of Iowa. "Let's face it, no one here is going to play pro football," said senior flanker Paul Visokey. "Odell has tried to look out for our futures."

But Iowa corn does not win Penn- sylvania football games.

Fuddy read a letter signed by 38 members of the squad, which at- tempted to absolve the graying ex- coach from the blame of 4-5 seasons the past two years. Fuddy recited: "Dear Coach: No one seems to know what made you reach your decision. . . We had confidence in you as a coach and loved you as a person ... You worked well with personnel...You

HOB ODELL

inspired them (the players) to as many wins as possible.

"1969 was a disappointment to the players and coaches alike....We had an overconfident team that did not perform on a championship level. We read too many headlines.

"In 1970 there were players quitting...True, we had another losing season, but not by any incompetence on your part, coach Odell."

The letter sounded nice, but it did not accurately reflect what the players really though. It was merely a token gesture to a man they respected as person.

As a football coach, however, Bob Odell lacked that respect. There was the time in 1968 when Penn, sporting a 5-0 record, traveled to Harvard to meet a likewise unbeaten Crimson rquad. When he should have built up his players' confidence by telling t^iem how good they were, he instead declared that they would have to play over their heads to stay in the ballgame, according to one ex-player.

Linebacker John Brinjac, who dropped off the squad at midseason, spoke for the "silent majority" of the Penn team when he claimed the coaches were "pessimistic." "They're not sure of themselves so we're not sure of ourselves. When we went to Rutgers (for a pre-season scrimmage), they were breaking out in cold sweats.

"You need someone to get you psyched up ... At Dartmouth last year <a 41-0 defeat) we were waiting for the coach, and then he came in and didn't have anything to say. Football

is an emotional game. You just can't do that."

Odell lacked the confidence in himself and his players. He left many of the decisions to his top assistants, Bill Wrabley and Jim Roe, who often told the players things that conflicted with what the head coach had relayed. For the past several years there has been a problem with the quarterbacks - Bill Creeden, Dave Baruden, Bernie Zbrzeznj, Pancho Micir, and Phil Procacci - none of whom knew where they stood at one time or another. The players related well only to assistants Larry Glueck, Clyde Washington, and Ron Wojciki.

Some of the players felt that Odell lacked the football knowledge necessary to win. When the players feel they know more than the coach, the situation is not healthy.

Publicly Fred Shabel disagreed. "Bob Odell has done a fine job for the University. We were competitive in every game. To me, to be competitive means you will win your share," he declared earlier this week. Back-to- back 2-5 Ivy League records with perennial doormats Columbia and Brown the only Quaker victims ap- parently were not competitive enough.

Winning even without the con- fidence of the players or the existence of a good rapport even without a winning record probably would have saved Odell his job. But losses and dissension combined to spell eminent doom.

A change of personnel in the football office was necessary. University athletic contracts are customarily reviewed one year prior to their expiration. To leave Odell as a lame-duck coach would have done harm to the football program as well as to Odell and the players. But Shabel should have realized that hiding behind a veneer of standardized press statements and "no comments" wouldn't fool the players, alumni, or the public very long.

None of the stories with which toastmaster Rex Morgan or any of the other speakers so skillfully en- tertained the banquet audience could veil the truths which were exposed last night. Bob Odell was canned and the reasons are both apparent and just. We can't accept, however, the camouflage that has surrounded the entire affair.

Midshipmen Must Decipher Morse Code By JEFF ROTHBARD

DP Associate Sports Editor

"The Machine" was finely tuned Thursday night.

While some of the Quaker gears were a little rusty in their first stop with Rutgers, Bob Morse, the 6-8 forward from Kennett Square, Pa., needed no refueling job as he paced the Penn attack with 27 points on 10-18 shooting from the field and seven of eight on the line. In fact, the 1970-71 Morse model exhibited a few new options.

Although the poker-faced junior was most effective on 20-foot jumpers from the top of the key, he twice drove

around Scarlet Knight defenders and went to the hoop for easy layups. "When they were playing me for the

shot, it was pretty easy for me to feint around them," Morse recounted in the Red and Blue lockerroom as he dabbed at a bloody nose (inflicted by a Gene Armstead elbow with 11 seconds remaining in the game i. In addition to his scoring contribution, Morse grabbed 10 rebounds, one more than Jim Wolf, for a team high.

I^ast year's leading scorer at- tributed his improvement off the boards to a summer body-building program: "1 gained five pounds since last season and did a lot of weight-lift- ing. Also, we've been working on

blocking-out and positioning for rebounds in practice."

Penn coach Dick Harter tabbed Morse as the outstanding performer in the 85-71 win, although senior guard Steve Bilsky i26 points, six assists) appeared on WPHL's "Star of the Game Show."

"Bobby had a fine game, not only shooting, but also on the boards," commented the fifth-year mentor.

Both Morse and Harter were impressed with the hustle of tomorrow's opponent, Navy, which bowed to Temple 64-57 in the first game of the Palestra doubleheader. Because of a wrestling match Saturday in Anapolis, the game has been switched from 4 to 8 P.M.

Last year the Quakers defeated Navy 80-66 and Morse doesn't expect the margin of victory to be any larger tomorrow night: "Navy's the kind of team that never loses by too much because they're always running."

"I've never seen a team that played any harder than Navy did last night," said Harter yesterday. "They've always used a tough man-to- man defense."

Despite their tenacious play, however, the Middies were outclassed by a ragged Owl squad, whose vaunted zone defense was full of holes Thursday night. Senior guard Jack Conrad was the only Midshipman who was able to take advantage of the Temple lapses as he pumped in 27 points on 12-22 marksmanship from the field. The 6-0 lefthander, who has trouble going to his right, hit for 15 tallies against the Quakers a year ago. Junior forward Bob Perry was the only other Middie to crack double figures, totalling 12 points.

On defense, Navy's lack of size really hurt against Temple and the Quakers hope to exploit this same weakness. Junior center Bob Kenney is the tallest member of the squad at 6- 7 and Temple's Lee Tress had a field day against the first year starter as he notched 20 points and picked off nine boards. Starting Navy forwards Mickey McCarty and Perry are 6-3 and 6-4 respectively.

Middie coach Dave Smalley felt that the Temple game meant a lot to his sophomore-studded lineup, but had little hope for an upset tomorrow evening: "Everything about Penn worries me. They're big, fast, great shooters, and have amazing depth. They can come at you 16 different ways."

Harter is looking for a better all- around game from the Quaker quintet

at Navy: "We did everything pretty well in spots, but I expect im- provement in all the areas of play."

One thing that disturbed Harter Thursday was that the closeness of the score prevented him from using his whole bench. Sophomore center Craig I.ittlepage and senior swingman John Koller saw only spot action, while junior forward Ron Billingsea didn't even get in the game. "We'd pull ahead by 14 or 15, but couldn't get that final burst to put it away," com- mented Harter.

The advantage of playing a strong team like Rutgers instead of opening up against a pushover like Muhlen- berg may begin to pay off tomorrow- night. "It's good we were tested before going on the road," concluded Harter, faced with the burden of three straight away games.

Penn Racquets Smash Middies To Take 6-3 Win

By SARA KLEPPINGER

In the record books it will look like another easy victory for the Quaker racquetmen as they triumphed over Navy 6-3 yesterday at the Ringe courts in their season opener.

But it was all too close for comfort when Penn was leading 4-2; two of the three matches still on the courts were tied at 2- 2; and in the third match Penn was behind 1-2 in games. The Red and Blue needed one victory out of three to assure a win over Navy, and nobody was sure where it would come from.

So Anil Kapur, playing at number two, clinched the team victory by winning his last game 15-7, just seconds before Eilot Berry added the icing to the cake by beating Gordon Perry 18-16,15-9,12-15,4-15,15-12 in a highly emotional match which ended up with a referee for the final four points.

Kapur had been down 0-2 to Middie Mike Wilson before rallying to take the next game 15-13 and taking the third to tie things up.

Coach Al Molloy credited Berry with the hardest fought match of the day. Despite an injured wrist and less than two weeks practice. Berry battled Perry down to the line and sent him sprawling on the final point. The two had argued con- tinually about calling "Let" points, until Perry demanded a ref with the score 14-9 in Berry's favor in the last game.

Junior Palmer Page outplayed Mike Custer in the number one spot, earning a 15-6, 15-12, 15-16, 15-10 win. Captain Jeff Condon was the only Quaker to shut out his opponent, soph Ted Turnblaser, with a three game victory, 15-11, 15-7, 15-8.

Quaker juniors David Lott and Charley Jacobs, playing at numbers five and six, respectively, were early Middie vic- tims. Lott, who had jumped from number nine to the five slot, lost in straight games to Navy's Jimmy Dunn, a talented junior. Charley Jacobs's match went down to the last serve

Pen I'S 1971 football captain will be offensive tackle John Curley from State College, Pa. The new Red and Blue grid leader was presented by outgoing captain Jim Fuddy at the annual dinner honoring the Penn football team held Thursday night at the University Museum.

Curley has been a starter for two seasons and is rated by the Penn coaches as their most talented and consistent performer. Lacking size, he is 6-4.205, Curley has been a finesse player and uses outstanding execution and good speed to get his job done.

Penn's new field leader has made the weekly All-East team on several occasions and this fall has been considered a top candidate for All-Ivy honors.

The Football Club award to the senior who brought honor and distinction to the team was shared by two seniors, defensive tackle Joe Smugeresky, Camden. N.J.. and quarterback Pancho Micir, Levit- town. Pa. Smugersky was rated Penn's top defensive lineman and was a two-time All-East selection. He also served as acting captain when Jim Fudd\ was kept out of action.

Micir was the Ivy League's total offense and passing leader and was considered the major factor in Penn's outstanding offense. What made the Micir story all the more important was the fact that he did not play last year.

The award to the freshman with unusual promise was also shared. Quarterback Tom Pinto, Salem, Mass., and his ace receiver, and Don Clune, Havertown. shared the honor.

Pinto averaged 6.1 yards a carry, scored three touchdowns and added to this by connecting over 50 percent of his passes for better than 600 yards and for five touchdowns.

Clune, a speedster, had 18 receptions for six touchdowns and averaged over 30 yards a ctach. The due is regarded as one of the most promising ever to move up to the varsity.
