Although there have been no reported assaults against men or
women inthe parking lots this year," Sergeant Duncan said, "Iam
sure there have been assaults against women that justhaven'tbeen
reported to us."
Only two cases ofassault against women have been reported at
UCI inthe past two vears. According to Duncan,this evidence of
good crime prevention makes it impossible to receive additional
funding for increased protection.
But Karen Bjorneby, co-director of the UCI Women's Center,
stressed, "We can't just wait for some violence to occur before we
get more protection. That is a fatalistic attitude."
"There mayonly be a 2%crime rateagainst women,but ifyouare
in that 2%, then it is so awful that there might as well be a 100%
crime rate."
The UCI police does provide an escort service for females after

However, the woman must be alone since the officers believe two
women are capable ofprotecting themselves againstanyassailants.
Ifthere are other things which the officer must attend to, the escort
service will take a very low priority. Theofficer may never make it
to the girl who needs assistance.
Duncan stressed that the escort service is "not a taxi service.
We're not going to haul people from one place to another."
Currently, 31% of all reported crimes occur in the parking lots,
according to Officer Miller. Buthe added, "There are definitely
more crimes which are not reported."

"For a department to become a center of

study, in depth, of governmental behavior. This
implies the assembly of a set of economists who
share a perspective on what is important, a
diversity of technical skills and an openness to

In citing the rationale for expanding the economics program, William Parker, assistant vice

"Social Sciences' most glaring deficiency was a

City lobby
needs ASpush
A UCI student lobby annex directors' proposal to establish a
municipal lobby in Irvine is a good avenue to initiate interaction
between students and the city. Unless the directors make some
definite plans to gather student participation, however,the idea will
remain just an idea.
So far. Annex Directors Nick Roman and Dan McCarthy have
kept the burden of creating a municipal lobby on their own
shoulders Both directors claim they'd like to see more students at
Irvine city council meetings, but they have done nothing to
publicize the meetings or to encourage student input into them.

But the student lobby, with AS, has to to make the first move.
UC Student Regent
must act for students
Every UC student lost the chance to receive a $5 1reduction in
registration fees nextyear because of amisconception onthe partof
the student regent.
UC Davis law student Michael Salerno, the only student with
full voting priveleges on the UC Board of Regents, abstained from
votingat lastmonth's regentsmeeting when the issuecame uptocut
the $5 1 from students' fees. The vote deadlocked at 6-6, and the
motion was defeated.
By not breaking the tie, Salerno failed in his primary duty as
student regent to represent students.
Salerno reasoned thatifhe voted it would havebeen a conflict of
interest since he would personally benefit from a fee reduction.
Salerno also seems to feel that he wouldbe a hypocrite for voting
on this issue in light of the fact he has criticized the regents for
voting on matters which would favorably help their businesses.
Butthe other regents are notsupposed to represent specialinterests
when they vote on University matters.
The student regent, though, is representing a special interest:
students. If Salerno does not represent student interests in the
regents, then it is pointless to have a student regent.
With the way things stand now, UC President David Saxon has
promised to get the feesreduced at anothermeeting.Ultimately the
state must agree to grant $6.7 million dollars to the University's
Educational Opportunity Program. Officials have said that they
are optimistic for a fee reduction in the near future.
By that time the student regentmust be willingtovote for students

Letters to the editor
Blade has
relevance
Dear Editor,
The recent article by one Jim
Parker is a reflection of the indifference and ignorance inherent
onthe UCIcampus. Mr.Parker
has set himself up as judge and
jury, and passed judgement on
the relevancy of the Blade. As a
black student at Irvine Iwas
glad to see the advent of the
Bladebec&useit was relevant to
the needs of minorities. Mr.
Parker seems to think that it is
no longer relevant because of
the fact that the Blade has not
met specific requirements in its
contract. His biggest complaint
is that there will be monetary
waste if there is continuedfunding of the Blade. I
wish to point
out that since AS fundsfinance
the Blade, the minority students
collectively pay for it out of
their reg. fees.Mr.Parker could
only understand the importance
of the Blade only if he could
place himselfina minority position but thisis quite impossible
since it is obvious he is not
aware of the position he now
occupies. Furthermore, Mr.
Parker fails miserably as judge
and jury since he only sees the
superficial impairments of the
Blade, and not the problems
thatunderlie itscontinued existence on this campus.
Antoine Hayes
AS 'pawns
"
A simple fact seems to have
been overlooked by the AS
council,possiblybeingmuscled
out of their conscienceness by
the emotionally supercharged
rhetoric of the particular pressure group involved: The attacks did not take place on the
UCIcampus. Thefact that they
didn't shouldend directASUCI
involvement in the matter.
Otherwise AS council will be
obliged to begin posting rewards anytime acrime against a
UCI student takes place anywhere.
It is observed by this closet
racist that more Chicanos are
assaulted and killed by other
Chicanos inEast Los Angeles
than there are Chicanos attending UCI. I
think the only thing
third world people have to fear
in a low crime area like Irvine,is
fearitself.Irrationaldogmatism
and screaming paranoia will
only cause friction where it
previously didn't exist.
On the other hand, the AS
government,which has allowed
itself to be manipulated by a
small group of students to support an irrelevent,personalized
issue, has something to fear;
Those of us who are tired of
having our funds squandered, of
having guilt assumed for something weare not guilty of, andof
a totallack of insight into what
the MAJORITY of UCI students are concerned about. I
believe that if the newly elected
AS council people don't change
what has already taken place
the entire AS government will
have,come Spring elections,an
awakened giant to fear; Its first

timated to cost $700 million,is
now estimated to cost $2.8 billion (a 400% increase) and it
hasn't even beenbuilt yet; who
knows what its final costs will
be (and you thought nuclear
energy was cheap.).
Alsocontrarytopopularbelief
is the wishful notion that the
breeder will make America energy independent.In theory, the
breeder is supposed to double
its input of fuel in the form of
plutonium, in 2-3 years— this is
how the breeder would make
more fuel than it consumes.
However, the French experimental breeder proved that the
doubling time is not 2-3 years,
butrather on the order of 10-15
years. And when the French
built their first commercial
breeder, the doubling time increased to 60 years, an awful
long time to wait for fuel to
power just one more reactor.
Finally, time itself works against thebreeder.Let's assume
that construction of the Clinch
River breeder could be started
right now— in ten years, or by
1987, it would finally be completed. Then give them three
years to play around with it to
show that itworks. So in 1990,
the first commercial breeder is
put under construction(at acost
of probably around $5 billion)
and is not completed until the
year 2000 (this is, of course,
assuming very optimistic conditions which have not pervaded
the nuclear industry since the
early 1960's). So after investments on the order of, say, $8
billion, we finally get one, yes,
only one, breeder reactor which,
after 60 years (the year 2060)
finally produces enough fuel to
run another breeder. This is
the answer to the energy crisis?
Thisis about asmuch an answer
to the energy crisis as alcoholis
ananswer to curing a hangover.
Thank god Carter had the guts
toveto this 2.8billion dollarpile
of boondoggle technology; now
all that he needs todo is cut the
rest of the funding that is presently being wasted on nuclear
energy and spend it on sources

Lobby seeks involvement
by Beth Blenz
UCIStudent Lobby annexdirectors are currently
working to "get the snowball rolling" in Irvine
community involvement.
Co-director Nick Roman said he'd like to end
Irvine City councilmembers' poor opinion of
UCI students.
"I'dlike to see a group of students get together
to form a municipal lobby-an official arm representing UCI," he said. "Right now, councilmembers have the attitude that students don't
care aboutthe city. Actually, alotofthecouncil's
decisions affect students."
Dan McCarthy, the other lobby corrector,
saidhe andRoman are starting a campaign toget
student involvement in city decisions.
"We're campaigning to get students to register
to vote, and possibly to support a studentcandidate for city Council in the next elections. We
also have to get more students at these meetings
to see what's happening."
"But we'vegot problems gettingpeople involved.
UCI's like an island; just the structure of the
campus makes it separated from the community.
Irvine seems like it's way out there somewhere."
"The more representation we get, the more
exciting things we'll get back," McCarthy added.
McCarthy said the main problem students and
City Council could work on was the lack of lowcost housing inIrvine. Roman agreedand added
that issues like recreationfacilities andbike lanes
would also interest and affect students.
"Ithink the idea ofhaving a student candidateis
a great idea," Roman said. "8,000 students
would be behind him or her. But we have to be
careful we don't get some dork in there who's
goingto use the position asa mouthpiece to quack
off. That would only confirm the City's idea that
students are jerks who don't care."
Roman said he thought about running in the
March city elections,but said "forget it"onehour GOOD IDEA- Nick Roman, Student Lobby annex director

Students to protest violence
A "Rally against Violence"
will be held today in Gateway
Plaza beginning at 12 noon. The
rally, sponsored by Concerned
Students against Violence, will
feature music, speakers, theater,
and an open microphone for
questions and comments.
The catalyst for this rally was
the beating of three Chicano
students from UCI in anIrvine
liquor-deli store and the still
unsolved murder and beating of
two UCI students in Costa
Mesa nearly a year and a half
ago.
Juan Nunez, Ron Cruz, and
Ernesto Lopez will presenttheir
account of theincident in which
they were beatenby three white
youngmenonOctober 28. This
will open the program and from
their story will come speeches
about violence in our society
and in the world, its implications
for allpeople,and what students,
faculty and staff at UCI can do
to counteract this pervasive
threat to people.
The planning committee has
received consents from Professors Stanley Aronowitz and
John Gerassi in Comparative
Cultre to speak. The students
are negotiating withother members of the faculty and staff to
have them speak to different
aspects of the issue.
A mime theater group from
Fullerton will present their in-
terpretation of violence and its
effects. A group ofUCI students
will provide some music, including original compositions
by one of the 'udents.
The open mike illallow participantsin the rtuxy to ask questions,make comments, and take
a more active part in what the

be aneducational andcommunity

"And through the spaces of the dark

"
As a madman shakes a dead geranium.
-T.S. Eliot
There are fine, fine memories to be had about
Rolling Stonemagazine.Excerpts from Scaduto's
biography'; Ralph Gleason's wonderful "Perspectives" column; Ben Fong-Torres' always
insightful reporting; Hunter Thompson (without
end, amen!); Ralph Meadman s wild and wacky
illustrations;Stephen Holden's moving and sensitive reviews; John Mendelsohn's incoherent
ramblings that always seemed to make sense no
matter how drunk we were; Annie Leibovitz'
photography; interviews with everyone from
Norman Mailer to Glenn Gould to Maurice
Sendak to Oriana Fallaci to Daniel Ellsberg; the
exquisite Jonathon Cott (whose writings have

remember going to record stores every weekend
years ago with my good friend Steve Manseau
and rummaging through new releases, old releases,
used releases, releases that should never have

famous question "New Rolling Stone in yet?"
This was before everyone had decided Rolling

thatone day Rolling Stone would be kneadingthe

eachnew issue offered somethingthat wehad not
known before.

Rolling Stone for what it once was, and for the
ideas it put into the head of a young man in
Westminster, and I
don't feel slighted because of
the direction the magazine has taken.
Memory can sometimes be akin to an exposed
nerve in one's tooth. One's tongue explores the
cavity with much enthusiasm—hoping to find
something, anything! more than a seemingly bottomless pit, where contact with any part of it
produces a sharp, stinging pain. So enough remembering. Say your thanks and apologize for
not being more enthusiastic about the magazine
now. There will be other geraniums to shake.
But still the pain persists.

A friend of mine and Iwere
talking the other day about the
nature ot music reviews. After
several minutes of increasingly
heated discussion, she told me
thatrecordreviews are merely a
matter of the reviewer saying
either "Buy It" or "Don't Buy
It." She went on toclaim that all
the rest of a review is actually
just a forum where the author
tries to impress his readers,satisfy his own ego, and attempts
to come to terms with any personality conflicts that may be
troubling him.
Ronnie Lane's contribution to
Rough Mix has been largely
ignoredby many simply because
they view Rough Mix basically
as a Townshend solo venture.
That Lane's presence on the
record should be regarded as
secondary if regarded at all is
entirely, unfair. Lane wrote or
co-wrote five of the cuts on the
album. Much like Townshend,
he has been experiencingsome
pretty frustrating failures of late.

THE
CARPENTERS:

Thehard rock fans turn down their noses and thump away.The
Lawrence Welk crowdand pre-teensnodinappreciation. Some
admit they liked them once when they were really big. Professional music critics' reactions range from pitying laughter to
reserved exaltation. How can one brother and sister team
provoke such disparity?
When the Carpenters began performing in 1969 the critics
despised them. Yet the record-buying public threw them high
intothe upper reaches of success. Thegroup began topaper their
walls with goldrecords. They won three Grammys in the space
of two years.
Lately, however,the sandshave shifted, andthe new patternis
almost the exact opposite of the way it was in the beginning.
Whereonce the public adored them, now manypeople consider
their music old hat. The critics, on the other hand, are coming
around to seriously examine their music. There are still those
who insist,as Robert Hilburn did commenting on their Greek
Theater performance, that heir music contains "A lack of
challenge,lack ofdiscovery and surprise," buthe thengoes onto
say how much he likes their golden oldies number. Chuck
Thegze admits they have a "lasting creative force."
Nowhere is that force more evident thanintheir newest album,

representative of the genre. Karenmoves leisurely through the
poetics of the lyrics and comes to rest on lazy snippets of
melody. "All You Get From Love Is A Love Song" was

to succeed as something like "Close ToYou," with perhapsjust
a little less earnestness than used to be in all their hits.

fans to revel in.

Yet the manner in which Lane
handles his disappointment with
life is curiously different from
Townshend's. His tunes, especially the brilliantly gentle
"Annie,"have an innocent,lazy
quality to them which makes it
difficult to take them ton
seriously. Part of this effect is
due to Lane's fantastic vocal
work.
Thealbumcloses witha lovely
version of country singer Don
Williams' "Till The Rivers All
Run Dry." After taking the listener through some extremely
well-crafted but stillrather selfanalytical music, Pete Townshend and Ronnie Lane have
found theperfect song withwhich
to express their new-foundfaith
in the future.
"I know sometimes you may

But with "Sweet Sweet Smile" she begins to delve intonewer
territory. There isa snappy, campy, slightly country flavor that

like the galss slipper fit Cinderella. 'B'wanna She No Home"
goes even farther and touches uponseductivejazz.The song was
recorded almost totally live with just a few overdubbings.
"Man Smart Woman Smarter" is a successful mishmash of
elements completely unexpected for the Carpenters. Harry
Belafonte did the song as a calypso, but it is here transformed
intoa roaringtwenties tease with chirping birds,conga, andsteel
drums. Halfway through, the vocals gave way to freewheeling
instrumentals.
The concludingsongs on each side are 7 minute masterpieces
of originality. On side 1, there is "Don't Cry For Me,
Argentina' from the opera Evita.The opera tellsthelife story of
Maria Eva duarte Peron, the second wife of the Argentine
dictator Juan Peron. Over 150 people were involved in the
recording of the song for this album, including the L.A.
Philharmonic orchestra. Narrative operatice voices introduce
Karen's part which she sings with full-bodied,innocent clarity.
On first hearingit all put together, one does not know what ot
make ofit. The effect is layered. Each time throughbrings out
new lavers.and voufind yourself reassured to know that there is
an order there. The humorous elements form one layer, the
historical another, classical influences yet another, and on
and on.
Side 2 ends with the bestsongin the album:"Calling Occupants
of Interplanetary Craft," the anthem of World Contact Day.
We first hear someone twirling aradio dial,and thenaconfused
disc jockey tries to take a song request from some mushmouthed aliens. Harmonious instrumentals swell up into
beautiful melodies out of which emerges Karen's crystal voice.
Violins mingle with a marching band. The mood is totally
removed from that Klaatu created with this song a while ago.
Passage is a triumph for the Carpenters. But perhaps it has
come too late to reach the generalpublic who by now are tuned
into newer groups.
The Carpenters seem to be oblivious to the tugs on their
popularity. The advertisements for their television special
promised, "A unique departure for the Carpenters,you'll have
to see it to believe it,"proving thatno matter what you think the
Carpenters are, no one else agrees with you.

December 6, 1977 New University
Food stamps, thepoor and the Biltmore
by Marsha Noreen Honda
It was a gloomy overcast
morning but the air was warm
and muggy. On the southside of
Grand Avenue,Pershing Square
was already filled with old men
playing cards and feeding the
pigeons. Winos were drinking
from bottles wrapped in brown
paperbags, andgroups of young
men were lying in the grass
talking idly.
But directly across the street,
a top-hatted doorman in a gray
uniform was directing valet
parking while bellboys wearing
white gloves were busy piling
suitcases ontolarge metal carts.
Inside the Biltmore hotel, a sign
in the lobby listed the various
meetings and conferences. The
public hearing on the new food
stamp program was being held
in the Music Room. It would
have been more appropriate in
Pershing Square.
Several weeks ago, a welfare
rights worker had called me aboutthe hearing. She saidit was
part of a nationwide program
designed to get recommendations that will guide the drafting
of regulations governing thenew
food stamp program. I
hadnever
attended a public hearing before, at the Real World.
She seemed slightly embarrasand the idea that thegovernment "This is the public hearing on sed for me, "...the public is, of

An elderly woman was at the
microphone speaking. Icould
barely see her head above the
small podium at the end of a
long table at the front of the
room. She had short,curly white
hair andtiny glassesperched on
the tip of her nose. Her hands
kept bumping into the microphone as she nervously turned
over the paper she was reading.
Icould not understandwhat she
was saying because she was
stuttering and rambling. Finally,
she looked up from her paper
and asked why the hearing was
beingheld at theBiltmore Hotel.
At the other end of the table
were three name cards. One
identified a short-haired manin
a gray suit as Ed Speshock,
Acting Chief of Programming.
With his elbows propped up on
the table and his chin cupped in
his hands, he stared blankly at
the audience. Another man in a
suit and tie was sitting with his
hands folded neatly in front of
him. His name card indicated
that he was Neil Freeman,
Regional Director of the Western Region.
With her head turned toward
the speaker's podium, Chris
Van Lenten, Special Assistant
to the Administrator, pickedup
the challenge, telling her microphone thatthe U.S. Department
of Agriculture had carefully
considered the location of the
hearing.
'Idon't think we have to hold
public hearings in a shabby
place,do we?" she said, smiling
and shrugging her shoulders.
She asked the elderly woman
to submit a written copy of her
testimony.
Before the next speaker could
get to the podium, a Chicana
woman walked up the aisle and
said that she had just "raised
hell at the front receptiondesk"
and that she had something to
say to the panel. She pointed to
Ms. Van Lenten and angrily
stated that she still wanted to
know why the Biltmore Hotel
waschosen as the location for a
public hearing on food stamps.
She said she was insulted by
Ms. Van Lenten's previous remark.
"Don't tell us about 'shabby
places.' We live there!" she
shouted, as she walkedback to
her seat. The audience began
clapping.
A youngblack woman, wearing
jeans and a tee-shirt, stood up
and identified herself as a food
stamp recipient.
'Why didn't you tell us people?
How are we supposed to know
about this hearing? Igot no
notification in the mail with my
food coupons," she said, explaining that if a member of the
1
portation, she would not have
been able to attend. She apologized for her casual appearance,
But I
ain't got nothingnicer."
Aman's voice from the back of
the room asked why the hearing
could not be held at Los Angeles City College or at a local
high school. He said that the
Biltmore Hotel was not only
inaccessible but intimidating as
well. Although the room was
still half empty, it turned noisy
as peopL began clapping and
talking among themselves.
Ms. van Lenten was calmly
noddingher head, "So you think
the hearingbelongs in the community..."
Havingthus officially acknowledged the complaints, she explained very slowly, mouthing
each word, that for information
on the place and time of addi

tional hearings,one shouldcontact the USDA Western Regional Office. She requested that
speakers from theaudience come
up to the front microphone;
otherwise the testimony would
not be recorded.
She turned and whispered
something to the Regional Administrator who had remained
silent and expressionless through
out the discussion. Then, after
glancing at her watch, she announced that they were behind
schedule and speaker's testimony would have to be limited.
Joe Sanchez, the owner of a
small grocery store in EastLos
Angeles, wasat the podium testifying. Hewas tallanddark and
spoke with a slight accent. He
suggested that recipients be allowed to use food stamps for
non-food items, such as toilet
paper,soap and sanitarynapkins.
"People really need these
items, and some recipients
don't have the money to buy
them," he said.
Noting that half the people in
the room were members of
minorities, he recommended
that the USDAincludedminority and community people on
thepanel. Finally,he concluded
his testimony by expressing
his feelings on the location of
the hearing.
"Many people in the barrios
feel uncomfortablecoming here
to the Biltmore without a tie or
nice shoes,"said Mr. Sanchez.
"I feel it was a disservice to
them to holdthe hearing here."
Ms. Van Lenten thanked Mr.
Sanchez and informed him that
Section 7 of the New Food
Stamp Act allows grocers to
provide recipients with cash
change for any amount less than
one dollar food coupon. Stores
would no longer have to print
paper tokens, and food stamp
recipients would be able to use
the cash change for non-stamp
items, if they so desired.
"Food stamp people should
not feel uncomfortable in any
place," continued Ms. Van
Lenten. "This isapublic placeeveyone should reel welcome
here."
Ms. Van Lenten appeared to
be the spokesperson for the
panel. The other two panel
members had made no comments.Mr. Speshock was looking

uptowardthe ceiling.I
hisgaze andfound myselfstaring
at a crystal chandelier. Mr.
Freeman wasbusy playing with
his penciluntil the woman from
the reception desk handed him
a message on a small slip of
paper.
The next speaker was a voung
woman from the the Welfare
Mothers Organization. She
lookeddirectly at the panelwhen
she spoke. She said she was
tired of "being treated like a
criminal" and tired of the dirty
looks she continually receives
from people at the supermarket.
She recommended that the
government be less concerned
with catching welfare cheats and
more concerned with feeding
bout four years old, walked up
to the podium. He had a scared
questioning look on his face as
he approached the young woman.
She picked himup and smiledat
him and pusheda strandof hair
off of his face. She lookedback
at the panel and continued
speaking.
"I think the whole work program stinks. You expect
mothers with kids to waste time
looking for jobs that don't even
exist? Just look at the unemployment rates."
"Under the New Act, mothers
with children under twelve are
not requred to register for work."
explained Ms. Van Lenten.
"That's when my kidsneed me
most,"the young woman yelled
angrily. "In my neighborhood,
that's when they hit the streetsgo ask any juvenile hall."
Outside,the doorman was still
directing parking and the old
men were still sitting in the park,
but the sun had finally broken
through the clouds.
In a wayI
was glad Icould not
stay for the entire hearing. Testimony would contiune until 9:00
at night-and parking had already cost me four dollars. If I
could have used my food
stamps to pay for the parking, I
wouldhave stayed a little longer.
Ireally would liked to know
how long Mr. Speshock could
look at that chandelier.

Anteaters trv to do it deeper
■
by Kevin Strehlo
Why, at a campus only five
miles form the ocean, did the
physical education department
stop teaching classes in scuba
diving after the 1975-76 academic year? The answer is that
there seems to be no viable
reason.
Coach Irwin of the UCI
physical education department
did anexcellentjobteachingthe
scubaprogram for allbut that 1st
year, when additional administrative duties made it impossible for him to continue. Two
outsideinstructors were hiredto
replace him, and this additional
expense caused the scuba program to run up a $1500deficit.
Could this deficit explain why
the PE department dropped
scuba?
During the scuba program's
days under coach Irwin, three
classes of twenty students were
taught each quarter— in basic

The very best intennis
would have been generated
from the 180 scuba students,
turning that $1500deficit into a
$300 surplus.
So why wasn't the fee raised
and the class continued? Why
are the 24 complete scuba outfits owned by the University
sitting around unused,rusting in
a storageroom off the pool deck
at Crawford Hall?
The new UCI diving club has
been trying to get someone to
answer these questions, led by
Earl Gibbs, the club has been
pursuing two goals. The first is
to get the University's scuba
equipment released for club
use, so that the club's certified
divers can doit deeper without
haying to dig quite so deep into
their pocketbooks. The second

Release of the equipment has
been a problem because ofsafety regulations imposed by the
UCI diving control board, a
group which meets six times a
year and controls all aquatic
activity on or connected with
the UCI campus. The diving
board requires, among other
things, that all the regulators
belonging to the university be
inspected and upgraded every
sixmonths if they are tobeused.
Coach Irwin and Earl Gibbs
agree that about $700 would
be required to bring the mothballed equipment up to diving
board standards.
