Beta Theta

Daily Aztcc Staff Writer
During Winter Break, San Diego State
University students need to stav involved
with the budget and other issue:~ affecting
the campus. according to Nigel Long. California State Student Association representative.
"Students need to be in tune with what's
going on," Long said. "When they come
back the situation may have changed, possibly for the worse." t
Long urges students to work with their·
Associated .Students representatives to let
those in student government know what
. their needs are.
"We need to bring to the forefront the priorities students have," Long said.
He said if" the lines of communication
slow down because of the holidays, students
may lose an important voice.
.
January is an impottant month, as a clearer picture may emerge regarding the Cali·fornia State University's request for an
increase in state support.
CSU officials expect to hear a response
from the governor's office during January as
student lobbying efforts from across the
state will also be taking place.
Long said the factthat school is on break
does not necessarily mean the policy makers will be. .
Important meetings will be taking' place
within the CSU during the holidays, and
some of these meetings may shape policies
which could affect SDSU's future, according to Long.

The InterfraJemity Council stated there was insufficient evidence to substantiate the allegations brought against the Beta
Theta Pi house in a written statement released last Thursday.
The fraternity was accused of singing the racist; sexist song
"Lupe" at fraternity-sponsored functions, which is in violation
of the IFC's position statement on the Principles of Community.
The IFC Judicial Board conducted a closed formal hearing
last Wednesday to hear testimony regarding the charges. Statements were heard from) I witnesses during the four-hour hearing.
The board concluded that because the testimony of James
Jo~ce, a San Diego State University student who made the allegations. was inconsistent and directly contradicted by other witnesses, proof the song was ever sung at fraternity-sponsored
functions could not be established.
In addition, no evidence was presented to indicate or prove
the song exists in written form within the fraternity. Therefore,
the Judicial Board lacks any authority to impose sanctions
against the house and its members.
.
However, in a press release, the IFC Judicial Board said they
did find evidence the song exists within the Beta Theta Pi fraternity. and has asked the intemationalfraternity headquarters
to conduct a full internal investigation and take whatever disciplinary action is warranted.
Rob Anderson, president of the Beta Theta Pi chapter, said

Fee payment plan
replaces credit card
By MICHELLE PONCIA
Daily Aztec Siaff Writer
A fee installment plan is the latest option San Diego
State University students have to pay their registration
fees.
A letter describing the new fee installment phm was
mailed to all students eligible to register for spring
1993 classes, said Mm'y Ann Patty, mlUlager of the
Cashier's Office.
Included in the tirst $300 payment is a $33 service
churge. all local fees and a portion of the California
Slate University fee. The second payment of $483 for
full-time students is due the 45th day of the semester.
However, not all students eligible to register for
classes milY use (he fee installment plan.

If students have a finuncial hold on their record. tm

The C'ashids Oftice offered its apologies to stllde/lls who have already paid silring 199.1 registration

"We were not authorized (to give information) until
the chancellor approved it, and Dan Gilbreath, the university controller, and then SDSU's actual agreement
(was approved)," Patty said. "SDSU's actual agreement had to be submitted to the Chtmcellor's Oftice for
final approval."
In order to have t.he fee installment approved, legis11IIion had to be passed first because the university is
required by law (0 collect rl'gistfation tees in advilllce.
Patty said.
Ken Perry, director of Ilnancial management, said
the Ch.mcellor's OOke staff came up with'lIl lllte01ative scenario for an installment plan at no additional
costs to the university:
"The (CSU ) trustees hadn't yet acted to approve (fee

Christmas lights Pho'nelines to California
brighten area leaders a pro-active voice
By JENNIFER NEWTON
By NINA GARIN
A night drive around San
Diego during holiday season is a
bright and festive one. Withlhe
green and red downtown skyline
and light-covered bridges, one
can't help bur get in the festive
mood.
From decorations as elaborate as the thousands of lights
hanging from Mister A's in
downtown to the simple Santa
on the lawn, decorations add
spirit to the holidays.
"My big brother and I made
Snoopy characters dressed like
Santa." said 9-year-old Mission
Valley resident Joshua Terner.
"We put them on the lawn each
year. It's really fun to do and it
makes ollr hOllse look cool."
Although in some neighbor~
hoods residents don't always
put up lights, there are some
neighborhoods where the entire
block participates in decorating.
Candy Cane Lane, located on
E Street in Chula Vista, is a
neighborhood which has
become famous for their annual
Christmas decorations. Each
year after Thanksgiving, the
street lights up to welcome the
holidays.
"My family and I have been
coming here for about six
years," said Elizabeth Andersen. "It's become a tradition for
,liS. I really enjoy seeing so much
Christmas spirit."
Candy Cane Lane is filled
with colorful dancing lights,
snow-covered lawns and moving characters,including a waving Santa and spinning snowpeople.
"My favorites are the ones
that move," said Andersen's 5. year-old daughter Stephanie.
"The ones with the colorful
lights are pretty too."
But for those who don't want
to trek to Chula Vista, sightseeing in downtown San Diego is
just as enjoyable.
The bright Mister A's restaurant draws the attention of anyone driving along the freeway
with thousands of lights ·covering the building.
"Every year after Thanksgiving, I take my family to see the
building light up for the first
time," said downtown resident
John Leo. "It adds so much to
the city, I don't think it would
feel like Christmas without
them."
. Aside from Mister A's, most
buildings light up the night,
including the green emeralds at
the Pan Pacific Hotel.
But whether it's just a drive
around town or a trip to Candy
Cane Lane, Christmas lights·
seem to add a certain spirit to the
holiday season.
"I love Christmas," said
Stephanie Andersen. "PUlling
up lights is my favorite, and
decorating the tree."

Board of Trustees and Gov. Pete
Wilson are once again under fire by
the Associated Students of San
Diego State University.
And this time, SDSU is a step
ahead of the policy makers in
Sacramento. By selling up two
direct phone lines to the CSU
Board of Trustees and Wilson's
office in front of the Information
Booth in Aztec Center, A.S. has
given students, faculty and staff the
opportunity to voice their opinions
before any CSU policy decisions
are made.
The board, appointed by the
governor, is mainly responsible for
overseeing the efficient management of funds, property, facilities
and investments by the CSU system and the campuses.
The idea for the phones was
implemented by A.S. and Deborah
Katz. a sociology senior and student activist, because of proposed
fee increases of up to 30 percent
(approximately $600 per year).
More budget cuts and a 5 percent
cutback to higher education overall
are also reasons for the phone lines.
according to A.S. Vice President of
Finance Patrique Lindahl.
"We are encouraging students to
call these offices to say that we do
not agree with and accept additional fee increases," Lindahl said.

Party school image doesn't affect employment

Who's to blame when parties get out of
bounds? .
-The B-52s, "Party Out of Bounds"
San Diego State University ~y be known
asa party school, but students more concerned with academic success' can take heart:
area employers say the party isn't out of
bounds yet.
There was a time when the party-school
reputation was well-earned. But. huge, open
parties and wet fraternity rush weeks are
gone now, and the once ubiquitous beer keg
is an endangered species.
Indeed. the tide of alcohol on campus has
ebbed so low. the idea cifbanrung beer sales
at Monty'S was seriously conl;idered by the
Associated Students Council \ast semester.
Still, the reputation persistsf. fed by rowdy
behavior at nationally telellised sporting
events and by· Playboy magazine's recent
recognition of SDSU for the~cond time as
one of the nation's top partyas:hools.
.
But there is some good nels. According
to personnel managers at Z:ubic Corp.,
KPMG Peat Marwick, Kaiser Permanente;
San Diego Trust and Savings Bank and the
San Diego Unified School District, the party
school stereotype does not affect an SDSU tation. Some schools (at SDSU) have a good
graduate's employment chances.

wick, said SDSU's reputation "doesn't have
George Flanigan, director of personnel for
any negative impact at all."
the San Diego School District, said the party"We look at individuals," Huennekens school label would only be a problem if it
said. "Have fun in school if you want. But
we want to be sure you can separate that from'
your professional life."
A San Diego Trust spokeswoman said an
applicant's grade-point average is what really matters.
.
"I'm aware of the reputation, but it really
does not taint my perception of people," she
said. "It does not make a difference because
I've gone to school there myself."
Paul West, employment manager at
Cubic, said he has hired several SDSU graduates without misgivings ..
"For what it's worth, you get a positive
vote from me," West said. "The kind ofpeopie we hire are engineering and computer
science people. I'm not sure that they have a

although he is glad the hearing is over, there
is a great deal of educating that needs to be
done.
"I have maintained our innocence
throughout the whole thing," Anderson said.
"But this is not a joyous occasion. There is a
lot· of work to be done educating people
about racism."
Anderson said his fraternity is wiDing to
work with other organizations in an effort to
inform and educate the community.
A meeting with Project Progress has
already been scheduled for the beginning of
the spring semester, according to Anderson.
Eric Moayedi, chairman of the IFC Judicial Board, said the board looked at all of the
testimony equally and is convinced they
made a fair and correct decision.
Joe Lara. chairman of MEChA, participated in the hearing and said his reaction is
one of disappointment and outrage.
FEE
Perry said. "This campus, knowing it would
present a problem to students. decided to
lake our own initiative to insert a telephone
number in the fee information if the fee payment was a problem."
Students could come in and sign a note
promising to make full payment of the fees
or sign a note from the trustees about the fee
installment plan, Perry said. About 100 students at the time had chosen this option.
"We sent out to all' students the informa~
lion on the installment plan after the
trustees' decision," Perry said.
The installment plan covers its own costs
in the $33 service charge, according to
Perry.
"It's high because the law mandated the
charge cover any defaults on the student's
part," Perry said. "After a year, there will be
a careful review of actual costs associated
wilh the installment plan."
A student will be disenrolled if they
default on the installment plan, Perry said,
"We went through all the proper channels
and worked with the system," he said. "We
were let down by it."
Additionally, Lara said he is upset
because the IFC Judicial Board and the university are aware of the song's existence on
campus and are tolerating the racist behavior.
"The Judicial Board admits the song
exists, but has done nothing," he said
The IFC Judicial Board has requested all
IFC members be put on notice that the
singing of any song which is degrading to
people of any descent would constitute a
violation in the IFC's Principles ofCommunily.
Future use of such songs by any fraternity will not be tolerated and will merit suspension from the council, according to the
IFC's statement.
The IFC Judicial Board has also recommended the creation of a broad-based university task force to study and develop ways
to eliminate racist, sexist and homophobic
behaviors within the campus community.
and if they are disenroUed, the debt is canceled.
"A year from now, we hope to see that
we'll show an experience factor to lower the
$33 fee," he said. "We hope to minimize the
future costs of this program for students to
take advantage of. Then it will truly be a better advantage to using a credit card."
According to LaDoska Griffin, a representative in the financial aid office of operations at the CSU Chancellor's Office, the
idea of a fee installation plan originated in
the Chancellor's Office.
"We had been kind of batting around the
idea in the administration for awhile as to
how students could pay for their fees," Griffin said.
The Chancellor's Office found a bill
allowing the office to have it as emergency
legislation, Griffin said. Then it was passed
by the governor.
Griffin said members of the office did
informal surveys of students to see what they
thought of the idea.
"The CSSA (California State Students'
Association) has been real helpful in support
of and endorsing the idea, "she said. ~

Get involved or get sick
It's the flu season, finals are here as we
gulp our coffee while burning the midnight

finals, a lot of students get sick.
As students of the university, we should
be concerned with what is going on with the
Health Center, Associated Students;and the
administration. The problem did not get

services are stiII missing. This semester as

It is a crime that th~re is no preventivecare
at SDSU. Statistics show that preventive
medicine stops illnesses from even occurring and is cost-effective. In a college population where risks for disease are higher
given our lifestyles, high stress, and lowinsurance pool, it is better for us as a community to have preventive services such as
rape prevention, HIV prevention and family
planning.
Don't be fooled by the administration and
the Board of Trustees. Just because the counseling center is in the new building doesn't

Recently, a
few people
have taken to
citing the Bible to illustrate their
points. Now, being of sound mind
and body, I feel that we all deserve
to be exposed to some of the lesser-known works of ol1r day.
Henceforth, whenever I shall strive
to make a point, or even if I should
have no point at all, ,I will cite a
source.
Today's Topic: being a great
leader.
First, the secret to being a great
leader is to kill all of those who will
not follow. "Great is the one whose
opposition trembles in fear, greater
still is the one who can eat his
young .... " (Cameron 15:22) The
overall impact of fear and loathing
in leadership is central to success ..
However, a great leader must
lind a way to endure the occasional uprising within the ranks. Thus
deflection of blame is a powerful
tool. "The Democrats made me do
it. ... " (Bush 01:90) or "It's not us
- it's the editors" (source
u'nknown, suspected to be a small
cell of radical reactionary opinion
columnists circa last week). What
is clear is that the truly great leaders will do things that are wrong
and then make us feel sorry for
them and blame others.
Yet pur picture of the great leader is not complete. In fact, we will
probably never understand the
truly great leader because they will
not allow the truth to be printed.
"I'm not going to run this."
(Tarantino 12:07) By suppression
of the true story, we can ensure
domination over the weak and feeble- minded. "If they knew what
we knew about what they don't
think we know, then they wouldn't
be able to suppress the AfricanAmerican the way they have for the
last 400 years, .. ," (Ward 3: 13)
The effective leader can use
whatever means are available to
execute the necessary actions to
ensure abuse of power. "When you
see whitey on the street, use your
car as the equalizer and run his ass
down .... " (Williams 78:99) Clearly such use of Ptirsonal power
makes clear that people can be
leaders if they are unwilling to let
rules stand in their way.
I think the best leaders understand their position allows them to

(Cameron 15:22)
take advantage of those whom they
have been entrusted to serve.
"Don't leave home without it .... "
(American Express Corporate
Card 15:(2) With the power and
the credit limit, a great leader will
make sure to help all the friends
possible.
Secrecy with respect to his
whereabouts can also help the leader to achieve greatness. "Where is
Horovitz? He's got more hate mail
from President Crenshaw's constituents .... " (Weiner 12:92) It is
the capacity to hide from one's
enemies and yet remain visible that
most elevates one's relative position.
The great leaders also know the
limitations of their excesses. "We
can rule the world i(we can just get
funding and housing .... " (student
vigil 05:92) In this respect, it is
clear of the breadth and scope of
their realization about the great
truths of leadership resources.
The power of positive public
relations and ability to get your
group's name in print is not to be
underestimatoo. "Did you mention
what ZBT did' in that respect'!"
(Winter 23:46) Those among us
who understand the power of
advertising shall go far. "We get
paid very well ,.. " (Daily Aztec ad
department every day: all day)
What greater leadership quality
is there than to be able to persuade
people through the use of others'
ideas? The basic rationale is "If
you can quote the many, cater 10
the few, and fool tne masses, you
can get elected ... " (Findling 39:92)
If you can use the great works of
others, it will leave you with more
free time to work out your plans for
global domination.
The end result of adhering 10
these leadership principles is you
will achieve greatness. Indeed, you
will be a legend in your own mind.
"When one doth take me to heart,
and to head, their stomach shull
suffer from great indigestion, and
the taking of Turns shall be their
only relief ... " (Breier yesterday:
noon)
.
So, I emplore you to quote :U1d

(Army 12:92) It is only fitting you
should aspire to greatness and in
the process recognize as many of
your friends as possible. Remember. it's the American way.

a dangerously high percentage of people at

it's hard to hit moving targets!) The unity
Schlick inevitably leads to a point where if
you don: t suffer from the same tunnel vision
that infected your cohorts, you get cursed out
for it.
To be blunt, the unity thing is not going to
happen. We're not going to have anotber
decade like the '60s (especially if I have my
way about it). Furthermore, not a single one
of us is going to "get along" until we decide
to be truthful and honest in our dealings with
each other. It is that simple, but it's surprising how people can worm and weasel their
'way around it.
Toward the goal of "getting along," we
must forgive each other for sins that have
been committed. To paraphrase an article I
came across in The San Diego Union-Tribune, this is contigent on two groups of people: one who asks for forgiveness and the
other who must be willing to forgive. Again,
a simple matter, all for the worms and
weasels.
It would be extremely easy to leave the
past in the past, but it keeps snapping back
on the present and opens up scars that have
yet to heal. Only when something new is
designed to compensate for past injustices,
will things balance out. When people discipline themselves to maintain that balance.
then we will get along.
Balance works in one of two ways.
Method I, according to Sista Souljah, 'Two
wrongs don't make a right, but they damn
sure make it even." lInless somebody does
something. any given situation in the status
quo is not going to resolve itself with "positive attitudes" and having everybody sit in a
circle and talk about it, now will it? It'll be
balanced out, although it sure won't be
pleasant.
Method 2, however, is do unto others as
you would have them do unto you. (Good
grief, that's simple isn't it?) All you have to
do ,is be cognizant of the world around you
and behave in a civilized fashion. Not that
I'm abo.ut to be canonized anytime in the
immediate future, but I'm willing to lay
money that those people who think I hate
them probably hate me more than I hate
them.

because she's the president of the sororities

woman and was in my English 581 W class

The only thing that's going to save our
collective ass is when people get it through
their heads that balance is a good thing. I
learned this at the Edward James Olmos lecture Dec. 2. Only when we take the initiative
to balance out the male with .the female; the
old with the young, and everything ~
that's out' of whack, will things get better.
No church, no politician, no government.
no university (especially this one having
skittered so far off its purpose, courtesy of.
what's-his-name and his priorities). nothing
else will make a dent in this problem because
thus far, they've contributed to it.

relaxed setting.
By MICHELLE PONCIA
Dally Azlec SIlIfT Wriler
he holiday season is a time to
gather with friends and family
and ring in the new year.
Inevitably, at parties and gettogethers, some may have a
few too many drinks.
There are alternatives to overdrinking and
drinking and driving to make this a happy
and safe holiday season.

Hints for a healthy holiday
By MICHELLE PONCIA
Daily A71cc Slaff Writer
he holidays are a time of celebrating with family and
friends. However. this time of
year can be dangerous for people with allergies. asthma and
chronic obstructive pulmonary diseas/;.
Precautions must be taken by people with
these problems to ensure a healthy and
happy holiday season. The Allergy and
Immunology Medical Group's board-certified allergists provided the following information to help prevent and reduce asthma
and allergy symptoms.
Decongestants tend to make a person
more hyperactive and alert. People should be
,areful not to take too many decongestants
and avoid caffeine-like substances, according to Vicki Timerman, Allergy and
-Immunology Medical Group administrator.
Some antibiotics do not mix with other
medications. Timerman said it is a good idea
to check with a pharmacist before mixing
. medications.
.
• Foods - People with asthma and COPD
who eat shortly before going to bed may find
they have more difficulty breathing. People
with food allergies should he cautious when
eating out or at parties ..
"A lot of people have food intolerancies
and allergies," said Timerm.m. "It·s good to
check with the host or hostess (at a party) to
see what's in the food."
Certain foods such as ripened cheeses. fermented meats, marinated food, nuts. chocolate and alcohol are all known to trigger
headaches and should be avoided by those
who suffer from frequent headaches.
• Medications - People taking any medications must be careful when using alcohol
and should be aware or'serious side effects
which could occur.
For example. antihistamines. sedatives or
tranquilizers mixed with alcohol can cause
extreme drowsiness and may slow reaction
time. Certain foods may act negatively when
mixed with medication. such as dairy products mixed with tetracycline.
• Trees and decorations - Christmas trees
can be dangerous to many people. Pine resin

ty tow companies to provide free tows. The
TOWED program - Tow Operators Working to Eliminate Drunk driving - begins
Dec. 15 and continues through Jan. 2.
Tow companies from San Ysidro to
Oceanside will be providing a free tow home
within a lO-mile radius, according to the letter. Any towinore than IO miles will be a
nominal fee.
Another option to drinking and driving is
taking a cab home. Cab companies which

uncommon for alcohol and substance abuse
to increase or become intensified during the
holidays.
Most people do not realize how quickly
any amount of alcohol can affect them.
according to API. Weight. food intake and
fatigue are. some factors which may affect
the amount of alcohol one can consume.
For people who do drink too much and are
unable to drive. lC. Towing offers a unique
service specifically for the holiday season.

in Christmas trees can cause harsh bronchospasm. A tree with ornaments and decorations can become dusty, which can be irritating to a person with allergies. It is recommended that people suffering from allergies
and asthma nol have live trees. but the safer.
artificial trees.
Odors from potpourri, scented candles or
wreaths may. also increase symptoms and
should be avoided by people with severe
asthma and allergies.
• Smoke -
The holiday season means
more time spent indoors. increasing a person's exposure to fireplace smoke and secondhand smoke. If a person is going to a
place where they know they will be exposed
to smoke, they should have extra medication
on hand,
• Travel - If a person must travel when
they have a cold. flu or other respiratory
infection. they should be aware that a chang'ing altitude can cause extreme pain or congestion in the ear. Talk to a doctor about
using decongestants or nasal sprays before
flying,
By following these "ug;!c"aions. people
will increase their chances of remaining
healthy during the holiday season.

J2-mE DAILY -"ZTEC
Flying Samaritans help disabled
. By ROBBIN KORENTHAL
.As the fall semester draws to an
end, the air feels invigorating and
serves as a w~e-up call to some
students. reminding tbem of all
they really have.
The warmth and goodwill of the
season is enough to make one
believe in mirl:\cles. and take a look
at the magical opportunities which
arise during the holidays to make a
"difference.
San Diego State University
postbaccalaureate students Rick
Kenney and Rich Thunder prove
that with hard work, miracles can
come true - and angels can make
a difference.
Kenney and Thunder are
involved in an organization called
The Flying Samaritans, which conducts a rural medical clinic in Mexico several times 'a month.
Kenney said the group is a non-
profit organization that performs
cleft palate and other surgeries for
people who otherwise wouldn't be
able to afford it. TIle clinic also dispenses health information to the
people of Mexico.
"I found out about it (The Flying
Samaritans) at UCSD when some
people told me about it," said Kenney, who has been involved with
the organization for two years. "I
told Rich about it, and we go down
about once a month."
Kenney said it is an opportunity
for pre-med students to get experience in a rewarding and fulfilling
way.
"Here (in the. United States) you
can't touch a person for fear ... (of
legal retaliation)" Kenney said.
"There is a great need down there,
and it's lots of fun."
'
The two men have recently realized there is another gr~at need in
Mexico, that of replacing amputated limbs.
"We were going to get some
medicine, and a guy just came up to
us ,and asked if we'd get his father
a leg," Kenney said. "I thought it
was funny at the time, because people usually ask for money, not body
parts."
Mercelino Olvera was a truck
driver in Mexico who had diabetes.
Because of a minor infection in his
leg, Olvera bad complications and
doctors had to amputate it.
But Olvera couldn't let that stop
him. He had eight children, to support,and he continued driving his
big tl1lck, using a crutch to push in
the clutch. Thunder and Kenney
said he is very grateful for their
help.
"I think he's very happy about
it," Kenney said. "When we
returned to talk to him, another guy
showed up and a"ked us to get him
a leg. We didn't have to think
twice."
Thunder said when they first
began helping Olvera, Kenney was
very optimistic and hopeful. He
said he knew they could be successful.
"When Rick said that we were
going to get this guy a leg, I knew
right then that we would," Thunder
said.
The two began a search for a
prosthesis, looking for somebody
who was sensitive to the issues and
was willing to help them. Then
Thunder found Advanced Prosthetics and Orthotics.
"That was our real breakthrough," Thunder said. "And we
met Marmaduke Locke."
Kenney said Locke offered to
domite his labor almost for free, so
they had to mise money only for
the leg. They have a 24-hour permit to bring Olvera over the border
and are now waiting for some
money.
"We have the doctor, we can get
the patient over here. now all we
need is tbe funding," Thunder said.
Kenney decided to raise money
in a way tbat would use his knowledge of baseball cards and appeal
to all ages. They g()t a discounted
room at San Diego Jack Murphy
Stadium, received a baseball-card
collector mailing list. and had sev- ,
eral items donated to be auctioned.
The sports auction will take
place Saturday. Dec. 19,5 to 9 p.m.
at the stadium. They will be auctioning event tickets, dinners,
sports cards, memorabilia and
other donated items.
"Things have really taken on a
life of its own," Kenney said.
Kenney and Thunder had no
idea they would be looking for a
leg when they joined The Flying
Samaritans. According to Eleanor
Markham, the physician coordinator and acting president of the
group, the organization was started
30 years ago to give something
back to Mexico.

Institute marks 50th anniversary
By PAUL YBARRONDO
The fall 1992 semester
marked the golden anniversary
of the Institute on World Affairs
at San Diego State University.
For 50 years, the IW A has
brought prominent political
speakers from around the world
toSDSU.
George Bergstrom, IW A
director, said the institute "has
been quite successful in bringing the outside world here,
where students. faculty and
other members of the community can ask questions directly."
The IW A's motto. "Let the
other side be heard." is a clear
indi~ation of the institute's goal
of improving international communication, Bergstrom said.
There is no charge to attend
the speeches. which are scheduled weekly. Most are open to
all who wish to attend.
Bergstrom said. although seating may be reserved and tickets
issued if a large crowd is expected.
This has been done only once,
he said, when the Chinese
ambassador spoke on campus
after the Tiananmen Square
massacre. A group representing
Amnesty International tried to
enter the auditorium to present a
petition to the ambassador but
was denied entry.

Parking structure on schedule
By JENNIFER LONDON
Daily Aztec Staff Wriler
If construction plans continue to stay
ahead of schedule. students may find additional parking spaces available during
spring semester.
The former faculty parking lot, located
behind West Com~ons, went under construction in January 1992 in order to build
an eight-level multi-purpose parking structure that will provide approximately 2,030
parking spaces, according to Larry Piper,
transportation planner for the university.
The stt:ucture will be called Parking
Structure Four and the first level and a half
will be designated forfacul.ty, staff, handicapped, carpool and vanpool parking. The
remaining levels wiII be for student parking.
In addition to the parking structure. Piper
said there will be ,mother parking lot next to
the structure providing an additional 360
spaces.
Piper estimated
the majority of the

tors.
Piper said he is
reluctant to say
when exactly the structure will be completed and available for parking because the
construction company is under contract
'until the end of May to complete the job.
Although he said construction is currently
ahead of schedule, problems can always
erupt.
"Even though we would rather have it
completed as soon as possible, as long as
they finish by May 1993 then we'll still be
on schedule," Piper said.
It is expected that Parking Structure Four

will be Ihe mosl ulilized slruclUre on cam-
pus because it also serves as a land bridge
between the center and west part of campus,
aCl:ording 10 Piper.
Parking hassles have always been prevalent al SDSLI. but in addition to losing parking privileges in the parki,ng structure on
~ Hardy Avenue (except levels five and six),
students were also forced to find alternative
places to park when parking lot y, located
on 55th Street, was closed during the fall
semester.
. Piper said the lot was closed to build ,{
new international student center. It is
expected to be completed sometime next
semester.
Orignally. the lot had 160 student spaces,
but according to Piper:when construction is
completed there will oniy be 140 spaces.
"We'll lose abollt 20 spaces from that lot
when we're done."· Piper said. "But the
majority orY-Lot will come back and it will
be for students."
Until construction is completed on Parking Structure Four and the new international student center, students are still forced to
find alternative, and sometimes creative,
places to park.

ed in a smilll town called Colonet in Mexico,"
Markham said. "The people showed them hospitality, and (the husband) was a physician, so
they decided to return and see that the people get
(health) care."
Markham said the organization's basic goal is
to take care of the indigent of Baja and Mexico.
She said there is an international division, with
14 chapters in Arizona and California, and any
student can help.
"We. like them to be Spanish-speaking so they
can be translators," Markham said. "Some students have experience, and we use them to assist
the doctors." .
Markham said ,there is a problem stemming
from the new clinic The Fiying Samaritans are
renting. The old clinic could hold 30 to 35
helpers, but the new clinic outside Rosarito
Beach can hold only 10 to 12.
"We are looking for a different building
because it's a pretty cramped space," Markham
said.
But Markham said the payoffs are the same
no matter where they are.
"The benefits are just to. help people, and it
gives you a good feeling," Markham said.
"When I went there. I thought it would only be
for a couple of months, but I just got hooked."
Kenney and Thunder agree with those feelings and said they have really begun to understand what helping people is about.
Both students are in the pre-med program.
and are applying to medical school. An<J.,Kenney said they hope to continue the program as
physicians.
.
"It's very satisfying and it feels right," Kenney said. "When you work in Mexico. you realize how wonderful the United States is. You
come (back) across the border out of chaos, and
appreciate it."
Thunder agrees, and said he gets more out of
helping people than he would have ever
believed possible.
.
"The more I get involved, the more I enjoy it,"
Thunder said. "When I see the faces ofthe kids,
it is no longer a chore but it becomes fun."

Throughout the past two weeks,
I've thought a lot about the recent

You know, it's easy for us non-athletes to sit high atop our perch and witness the wrongdoing of our fellow
peers. I mean it's not like most students have never cheated before.
Find me someone at SDSU who is a
virgin in the cheating world, and I'll
show you the Christmas tree I bought
for the Chabad House.
You can use the theory that, "Hey,
the football players are in the public

want to know about it."
And you know, you're right.
As students, it is our responsibility
to help the fallen program, not hinder

SDSU almost steals the show
'from the Runnin' Rebels

Forward Keith Balzer led SDSll with ' 20 pointS and 13 rebounds in the Aztecs' 12-point loss to
UNLV.
Maybe it's new coaching. a new building.
new players or maybe it's just a new altitude.
.
Whatever it is, the San Diego State men's
basketball team showed some progress in a
89-77 loss to No. 22 Nevada-Las Vegas Saturday night.
The 3,538 in attendance at Peterson Gyin
were the most to witness an Aztec game
since the 1990-91 season and made themselves a factor at the end of the ~rst half,
after the Aztecs finished an 18-1 run to to
take the lead, 35-34.
"The crowd was great," SDSU forward
Tony Clark said. "I Wish we could get that
type of crowd every game. It helps to get the
guys excited, it helps honestly to keep the
guys focused and keep their head in the
game. I think it helped a lot."
SDSU started the run with 6:30 left in the
fll'st half and down 33-17 when freshman
Barry Randle nailed a three-pointer, followed by a blocking foul oh UNLV's Evrie
Gray, giving the ball back to the Aztecs, after
which Marcus Banks scored on a tip-in.
After SDSU closed the lead to 10, Clark
hit a long-range three-pointer to bring the
Aztecs to within seven and bring the crowd
to its feel.
Following an oftkia\'s timeout, Clark got
a layup after a Keith Balzer steal to cut the
lead to five. t'NLY then gave the hall right
buck to the Altecs when the Runnin' Rehels
committed "theIr ninth turnover of the, game.

Although the Aztecs lost by 12. the score
was no iadication of a blowout.
"The score doesn't show how close it
was," s~d Balzer, who was the Aztecs'
high-pOInt man with 20 points and 13
rebounds. "I think the difference was that
they had a little more experience together."
The game was UNLV's 1,000th game in
its history and the first time UNLV head

Fuller aiming to rejuvenate
long-lost basketball program
"
By RYAN PECK
Daily Aztec Sportswriter
Even athletes long to be home for the holidays.
Take the San Diego State men's basketball team, for example. Maybe they would like to be home for winter break, but
.most of them won't.
Instead, Tony Fuller's 2:'3 Aztecs will be practicing and
playing in Peterson Gym in between road trips to Texas,
Hawaii, Wyoming,'Colorado and Utah.
. No, these guys don't get the happiness of mom's home
cooking. In fact, the SDSU basketbatl players may not get
much joy at all, considering the beginning of January also
marks the start of Western Athletic Conference play - something that has been a giant nigh~e for the Aztecs in recent
years.
"We should play everybody tougher," said Fuller, of his
maiden voyage into the WAC. "We should not fear the opponent."
But the other members of the confere~ce have been something of a terror for SDSU in recent years.
Last season, under the now-departed Jim Brandenburg, the
Aztecs went O-for-tbe-WAC.
~
Since 1988, SDSU has won 14 conference contests - starting freshman point guard Jason ~amilton was a freshman in
high school in 1988.
To top it off, the Aztecs have finished no higher than sixth
place since 1985 when SDSU last found itself in the NCAA
tournament.
At this point in the young season, the Aztecs do seem poised
to at least improve on last season's 0-16 blight.
They can't be any worse, anyway.
Already, however, SDSU has equaled its 'victory total from
a year ago with wins over Cal Poly Pomona and Westmont
College, while two of its three losses were close calls - ODe
to Pac-tO school Arizona State, the other to national powerhouseUNLV.
But Fuller is not entirely happy, despite the improvement.
"It's been a long 12 days," said Fuller, of the firsttwo weekS
of the season. "But we've got a week off to make adjustments."
Those adjustments will be made in an effort to prepare not
only for the WAC opener in HawaiiJan. 3, but also for the last
remaining non-conference matchups with four teams, only
. one of which plays at the Division I level.
That lone foe will be Washington State, which comes to San
Diego Dec. 18-19, along with North Florida and Azusa Pacific' for the Texaco Star Cla<;sic Tqurnament in Peterson Gyin.
The Classic will also mark the season debut for SDSU
guard Ray Barefield. who returns from academic ineligibility.
.
Afterwards, only a date with Lamar University in Texas and
another with UC Riverside in Peterson Gym stand between
the Aztecs and a conference that has become their worst
enemy.

He asked, ''Everyone get their tests?" And I
raised my palm high in the air and said, "No, I dido' t
get~ne."
He asked my name. I answered. He then told me
to meet him in his office after class.
Not the best way to start a ] V.-hoursession of a
subject I couldn't relate to.
.
When I reached his office after sweating profusely for 75 minutes, he made it quick and sunple.
. I hadn't completely ernsed my notes on the back
of the answer sheet.
.
I received no reprimand. I received scolding. I
received the grade in which I would have received
had he never found out.
That grade turned out to be a C-minus.
The professor, whom I hold in high regard 10 this
day, said to me that if it took cheating for me to earn
a C-minus, then that was what I deserved.
In the end, for all SDSU students and athletes.
that's the way it should be.

P
hotographer Mary Ellen Mark has more than a knack' fortak- .
ing candid photographs. Mark's beautifully disturbing
images of "un famous" faces burrow beneath the skin per.
forming a delicate form of psychic surgery. Her photographic eye has both the sharpness of a scalpel and the ten.
demess .of a kiss.
.
From documenting Mother Teresa's work in Calcutta, India to sharing
moment with blind children in Ukraine, this award-winning photographer never looks away as her photos wrestle with some of the more difficult questions of existence.
Every photographer has a limit, a fine line between what can or should
be photographed. Although the content of her images vary, Mark makes
those decisions as they come.
"There's not a general line, but I think there's is a line involvingpeopIe's dignity," said Mark, 52, during an interview last week. "There's a
line of their privacy, perhaps, they don't want penetrated, which maybe
.
you don't cross.
"But you feel that individually. It's unspoken. When you photograph
for many years, you get to a point where you learn to be more perceptive.
And I think that's what photography has taught me." .
Using a gut-level tenacity to look past gritty exteriors, Mark digs for
beauty in the most unlikely places. Seen as a whole, the 125 black-andwhite photographs in "Mary Ellen Mark: 25 Years," a traveling retrospective now on exhibit at the Museum of Photographic Arts, form a

22-THE DAILY AZTEC
Writers flse humor to revamp mystery genre
By SCOTT PUCKETT
Daily Aztec Arts Writer
ystery novels once had simpler
plots. Sleuths and police officers
eventually apprehended criminals and the series continued. But
now, mystery writers are using
,non-genre elements along with
more traditional plots.
Katherine Neville's "A Calculated Risk" (Ballantine) and award-winning investigative journalist Carl
Hiaasen's "Native Tongue" (Fawcett Crest) are two
examples of this move toward more mainstream fiction, leaving behind more superficial themes of the
genre.
,
,
Neville's diverse backgrouncj from literature to
business prepared her for,the stories she would later
write. She said her interdiscip1iniY resume gives her
work a different slant whilesimu.rneously providing
additional plot material:

"I think having this perspecth:I," said Nevillein a
recent interview., "and having~worked and been
involved in heavy industry.
processing, economics, finance and energy... 've me' this view of
civilization I think is more real t an the view a lot of
authors get."
Likewise, Hiaasen's themes are not necessarily
shared by other writers. His differences fr.om other
authors are evident even 'in the influences he cites Joseph Heller and lohn Irving, among others. In

THE DAILY AZTEC-23
MYSTERY
"Native Tongue," the author
combines environmental issues
with a dark sense of humor.
"I don't know anyone else
who writes quite the type of stories I write," said Hiaasen in an
interview. '''There is a mystery element, but they are by no means
a 'whodunit.' "
In "Native Tongue," Hiaasen presents a hopeful view of humanity through his environmentally 'conscious heroes. Neville accomplisbes similar goals by poking fun at greed and bringing attention
to the need for banking reforms in the wake of the Bank of Credit
and Commerce International scandal.
"I think (Oliver Stone's "Wall Street") was a very accurate portrayal of a whole generation of people," Neville said. "And I'm
very sorry to say it's my generation."
But this new generation of mystery writers doesn't concentrate
solely on political matters. Using classic elements from Raymond
Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, these books feature complex,
realistic characters rather than one-dimensional gumshoes.
"Rayntond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett and people like that
invested their characters with very human flaws," Hiaasen said.
"Pulp fiction went through a period where the only flaw that you
found in the detective was that he drank hard and had trouble with
women."
Today's private eyes use brains rather than the more stubborn
approach of fists in older
works. The clever, independent heroine of "A Calculated Risk," Verity Banks,
reflects this split from the
traditional detective model.
Complicated characters
such as those in Neville and
Hiaasen's books are becoming more common. Hiaasen
attributes this new mindset
to a move away from more
formula-driven na."Tatives.
"What we all learned
from people like Tony
Hillerman, Elmore Leonard.
Donald Westlake and people
like that is that you can have
fun with these things."
Hiaasen said. '''These are not necessarily dead serious. nail-biting
novels. They're not always two-fisted potboilers. They are, to some
extent, approaching a form of literature."
For genre aficionados. The Grounds for Murder bookstore.
located at 3287 Adams Ave., has a fine selection of mystery novels.

No need to crowd the malls I~ng for the
ultimate gift. Dozens of perfonnancetheaters throughout San Diego offe! gift certificates or reduced, student-priced tickets to a
wide variety of staged works. With everything from holiday fare to ambitious San
Diego State projects, tickets t()' a play could
be just the special present you've been
searching for.
Below, suggestions to some of the theater
treats now showing or planned for 1993:
On The Home Front: Not everything the
SDSU drama department produces actually
works. But, for the student price of $7, these
productions are a bargain, an~often more
interesting than general theater fare.

e Ebbesen
(splendid in both this semes 's produc-'
tions, 'The BaJd Soprano" and' Assassins")
orRachel Lynn (upcoming in January's staging of the British farce "Ernie's Incredible
IIIucinations") are must-sees.
Upcoming offerings include the musicaJ/comedy "Birds of Paradise," a romp
about an amateur New York theater group
mounting a musical of Chekhov's "The
Seagull." "Birds" is sure to push the limits
under Paula Kalustian's direction. This
SDSU director also helmed the ambitious
SDSU stagings of "Assassins" and "Into The
2
Woods" as well as "Beehive" at The Theatre in Old
Town (see below). (Scheduled for February)
"Bodas de sangre"
("Blood Wedding") is
being produced in Spanish
and English. A newspaper
article about a bride who
eloped with her former
lover on her wedding day, a
situation which ended with
the groom and lover killing
each other, is the inspiration for this tragedy by
Spanish playwright Federico Garcia Lorca. (April)

Helmet sticks to hard-edged
basics of alternative rock
By LARRY HARMON
Daily Azlec Arts Contributor
Helmet
"Meantime"
Interscope Records
Helmet is changing the way alternative
rock is being played. Rather than shove the
music down the listener's throat, similar to
testosterone-fueled Henry Rollins, this New
York quartet chose a more subversive
method.
Helmet's success can be best demonstrated by the increased number of fans at their
shows. During the summer, Helmet was seIling out 1.OOO-seat venues. It was only a year
ago that Helmet played at Winter's on EI
Cajon Boulevard to a sold-out crowd of 140.
They've recently landed an opening slot on
Ministry's tour. which will be in town Dec.
28 at the Del Mar Fair's O'Brien Pavilion.
After releasing three EPs and a full-length
album on the Amphetamine Reptile label.
along with constant gigging. the word has
gotten out to the major labels.
After a bidding war between eight labels.
the band decided to sign a three-record deal
with Interscope Records for more than a million dolhirs.
With their major label debut. "Meantime," following the standard the band set by
their independent releases. Helmet continues to combine the heaviness of Black Sabb~th with the anti-establishment of punk.
The music is stripped down with a minimum
amount of power chords. Guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Page Hamilton sings with
short bursts, switching bet,ween screaming
and bare harmonies.
The music is restructured with complex
rhythm and tight stop and starts. The opening track, "In the Meantime," begins with a
wall of noise then quickly changes into a perplexing guitar riff. Bassist Henry Bogdan
and guitarist Peter Mengede rely on the low
notes, while drummer John Stanier pounds
out the beat. Before Hamilton even lregins to
sing, the music's repetitive notes practically
make your skin crawl.
.
Helmet's tight arrangements can be
attributed to Hamilton's master's degree in
jazz guitar from the Manhattan School of
Music. Someone with a degree in guitar
playing might be
tempted to crank out
an albtlm's worth of
guitar solos. But
Hamilton chose not
to wallow in such
indulgent technicalities, channeling his
aggressions into
four notes.

Gaslamp Quarter offers unique art blend
By SYBIL CHENAULT
Daily Aztec Ans Contributor
ne of the best-kept secrets
among San Diego State
students is the unusual
variety of art galleries and
cafes in San Diego's historic Gaslamp Quarter.
The eclectic mix of art forms in the Quarter range form "living art" at the Sushi Performance Gallery and fine art at the Faith
Nightingale Gallery to the alternative music
store and cafe at Alii-Kat.
The Gaslamp Quarter covers a, six-block
area that extends from Broadway to L Street
between Fourth and Sixth avenues, near
Horton Plaza and Seaport Village. Walking
is the best way to ~t around the area and
(here is ample parking at the comer of Fifth
Avenue and G Street.
Bravo Gallery located at 302lsland.is one
of the most affordable galleries in the area.
.lts unique blend of contemporary crafts and
fine art is the product of local artists. The
most prominent items for sale are the ceramic bowls and unusually shaped glass plates,
although the gallery offers natural-fiber
weavings and jewelry, too.
"A lot of students think original art is too
expensive for them, but we have a nice selection of affordable jewelry and other items
that would make great gifts," said Lauren
Becker, an artist and co-owner of Bmvo.
For art on the cutting edge, Strange Fruit',
a working studio and gallery located at 627
Fourth Ave., offers works by emerging
artists in a variety of media. The black walls
and cave-like room houses a chaotic mix of
photographs, neon paintings, geometric jewelry and c1otl'!ing for the hip.
"The avant-garde, MTV ~type art reminds
me of the New York underground in the ViIlage," customer Curt Yanko said.
Cafe de I' Amitie, on the comer of Fourth
Avenue and Market, combines an art gallery
and cafe. The Middle Eastern antique furniture, art and jewelry create a warm atmosphere that is a.. welcoming as its owner,
...... Bassam Shamma.
"It is not a commercial coffee shop - it is
culture," Shamma said. "Cafe de I'Amitie is
in the tradition of the cafes of Europe where
artists. actors and students come to talk."
Shamma's new lunch menu of salads,
soups and sandwiches complement the superior coffees served. His Cafe Mocha, a fourlayer coffee drink with a hint of chocolale
mint, is delicious.
Live piano music is performed nightly by
professional and nonprofessional musicians,
creating living art forms that complement the
warmth and charaCter of the gallery.
The architecture of San Diego's old Chinatown and Victorian structures has been
preserved to add another dimension to the art
world in the Gaslamp Quarter. The murals
painted on some of the newer buildings add
a surreal feeling to the experience.
"This area gives you a separate feeling,"
said Peter Herlan, who works in the neighborhood. "There is so much history here."
The cultural diversity arid wide array of
arts, entertainment and food in the Gaslamp
Quarter give San Diego its unique character.
Alii-Kat, 825 Fourth Ave., 234-5287.
Bravo Gallery, 302 Island Ave., 2320396.
Cafe de I' Amitie, corner of Fourth
Avenue and Market Street, 557-0173.

The best and the worst of 1992
By ERIC RIFE
Daily Aztcc Ans Editor
very year about this time,
every music critic in the
world lists what are
ostensibly the very best
albums of the last 12
months. And every year
____ about this time, readers
everywhere develop hostile attitudes
toward these know-it-all little weasels.
So in the interest of curbing this irritating trend, this editor will be as forthright
and as honest as humanly possible. I don't
have time to listen to every single album,
tape or compact disc that comes out, so
(for whatever it's worth) here's a lila of
the discs that spent the most time on my
player:
Albums:

• Michelle Shocked - "Arkansas
Traveller" With an all-star lineup including Doc Watson. Hothouse Flowers.
Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown an9 others,
Shocked has created the definitive resur~
rection of American bluegrass.

• Mega 'City Fo.ur - "Inspiringly
Titled" Before you go buy the latest disc
from Ned's Atomic Dustbin or the Sense~
less Things, check out the MC4,.one of the
most seminal, yet overloolced British
post-punk bands out the're. This live
recording is a good introduction to a band
that hasn't forgotten what it means to pave
your own roads.
• The Levellers - "A Weapon Called
the Word" Blazing tiddles and mandolins spar with jackhammer guitar riffs
to create one of the most danceable
albums of the year: The Levellers are a
band of scraggly minstrels who have all
the energy of the early Clash mixed :,vith
the intoxicating charm of the Pogues.
• Cracker - One of the funniest albums
of the year, Cracker's self-litled debut
proves David Lowery really was the
genius behind Camper Van Beethoven .
• StitT Little Fingers - "Live at the

THE DAILY AZTEC-31
CAMERA
composite picture of the human
heart - X-rays of the state of being
human.
"I think it's hard to get below the
surface," Mark said. "Particularliy
in portraiture - to get to a point
where you're telling something
very private about someone.
You're,somehow penetrating their
soul a bit. And I think that's what
you try and do.
"I try and interpret who this person is, something about this person
that is relevant. I'm trying to sort of
say that with my camera."
Open doors
rom the very beginning,
Mark's camera gave her
access to other people's lives.
It opened doors and released emotional dams, translating the abstract
into a concrete image: pain, fear,
hope, longing and love all find a
proper context in Mark's photographic oeuvre.
.
And the viewer can find this sensual inventory of human responses
scrawled across the variety of faces
Mark has phot9graphed so eloquently over the past 25 years.
Although Mark's photographs are primarily focused on marginalized characters, it would be inaccurate 10 pigeonhole
her work as simply being "pessimistic."
According to Mark, the comparisions
to the late Diane Arbus are gender-based
at best. Where Arbus seemed 10 project
her own neurotic insecurities onto her
subjects, Mark is much more empathic.
Whether she is observing patienls in a
mental institution or watching heroin
addicts shool up, there is always respect
for the people in her photos. And in image
after image, the- people are always conscious of the photographer's presence.
Mark's photographs are never
voyeuristic. Rather, they describe interesting situations, .inviting the viewer to
share the moment.
F
Trust
sense of mutual understanding
and respect is quickly established
with the people Mark encounters.
Learning to generate this kind of trust
with strangers is something a photographer develops with time and experience.
Mark said the apprehension and nervous
thrill of approaching someone with a camera never goes away.
"It's always hard," Mark said. "You're
exposed, you're naked and rejection is
devestating. It doesn't happen too often,
thank God, or I wouldn't have a show."
But Mark does have a show addressing
a variety of personal and conceptual con-
A
cems. The exhibition and its accompanying catalogue are divided according to
themes such as "On the Edge," "Confinement," "Portraits" and her recent series
entitled "Indian Circus."
Mark wants to introduce the viewer 10
these people, 10 act a~ a devil's advocate
for those wno otherwise might never be
photographed, much less remembered in
a beautiful photograph.
"It's nOI that I want to take depressing
pfclures," Mark explained. "That's not my
purpose. My purpose is to phologmph all
the people that maybe wouldn't have a
chance to be photographed, because
they're really interesting to me. They give
a certain innocence that (is). perhaps
impossible to get sometimes with famous
people."

• Prelude to a Kiss - Alec Baldwin and

breaking hearts, Buffy kicks, dances and
smooches her way through this hilariously'

the best birthday party ever with the man
possessed by Elvis.
CALENDAR
"Imagery in Motion," and Glen Melero
-One Person Exhibition through Feb.
21, 1993 - These three art exhibits run
concurrently at the Centro Cultural de la
Raza in Balboa Park. If they hold trUe to
the spirit ,of previous exhibitions at the
Centro, these should be visually and emotionally stimulating. Admission is free.
• The Dickies,· with special guests
Vamp, Inramous Symphony, and Gadny, Friday, Dec. 18, at the Spirit: One
of the last surviving .bands in the first
wave of American punk, the Dickies have
earned a well-deserved reputation with
their outrageous stage antics and cover
tunes.
• "Jan a Sterbak: States or Being" The Czech-born Canadian artist brings
her enigmatic series of mixed-media artwork to the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art at 700 Prospect St. in La
Jolla, from Dec. 19 through Feb. 28,
1993. Admission is free. For more information, call 454-3541.
• John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers
with special guests the Juke Logan AIIStars, New Year's Eve at the Belly Up
Tavern: Before Eric Clapton founded
Cream, before Mick Fleetwood founded
Fleetwood Mac .and before Jeff Beck
joined
the Yardbirds, they all coot their
•
start In Mayall's Bluesbreakers. Although
not as well-known in the states as the performers he spawned, Mayall's legend is
one that can't be neglected. This is going
to be one New Year's party you won't
want to miss.
- Compiled by Neil Kendricks,
Scott Puckett, Eric Rife
and the rest of the arts desk.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and
a prosperous New Year to aU of you !
In concert
Here are a few of the bands and artists
scheduled to appear over the next few
weeks: .

Jam) and a new studio album, Ulster's
favorite sons continue their assault on
British rule over the Emerald Isle. Although
most fans are probably tired of their numerous live albums (this is their fifth). "Live '"
" is one of the best of the lot.
• Sonic Youth - "Dirty" The critics'
favorite sacred cows need to be taken out
and unceremoniously slaughtered. True,
they have inspired l1}any of today's current
faves (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins. ad
nauseum), but whether they ever go outside
the lofty, conceptional sandbox they like to
~Iay in album-after-album is another quesIton.
• Sugar - "Copper Blue" The longawaited return of the Husker Du frontman
wasn't disappointing (even if the cancellation of their concert here was). Injected with • Madonna - Those of you who seem to

made with every good intention (reclaiming
rock's African-American roots, bridging the
gap between rap and metal, offending racist
cops, Republicans and other uptight people)
and most of the time, he hits his mark. So
why did Ice-T buckle under the pressure and
have it pulled? Who gives a damn what
Charlton Heston and Dan Quayle say about
"Cop Killer?" Their condemnations would
have made for a great advertising campaign.
• Rave and techno music - Every generation has its share of mindless lemmings and
ours is no exception. That disco would reinvent itselfwas an inevitability to be shunned,
not embraced. The greed of rave promoters
never seems to be satisfied as those without
a shred of originality or intelligence continue to pay outrageous prices for light shows
and designer drugs. After all. if you really
want to buy yourself il personality, you could
always join the Greek system.
