Since Sunday Oct. 20, Drexel students have been victims of assault by gangs of youths, or “wolfpacks.” One of the first assaults occurred around 8:30 p.m. Wednesday night, Oct. 30, on the 3400 block of Race St. A male senior class student walked out of his apartment and saw “at least 20-25 young blacks.” The senior said he then tried to “play it cool" as he walked to his car that was parked three houses down. his car, however, sNlille described as being about 14 yiars old “just popped me in the jaw... my first reaction was to hit him back, but I saw another one of them pick up a 2x4 lying on the ground.” The youth threw the 2x4 at the student, missing “by about four feet wide.” The student then ran back to his house where he phoned the police. The youths gave no chase; rather, “they just laughed.” A member of Sigma Pi who was present Wednesday night verified two other separate assaults on campus. The first occurred around 9:00 p.m., when a girl and her roommate were walking up from the 7-11 along 34th street. The girls were approached by an estimated 40 black youths, boys and girls, ranging in age from 11 to 17. The girl and her roommate attempted to walk between the group, when one of the girls was pulled down, kicked, hit, and clubbed with a an object that was described as something which resembled a pipe. “We called the police five or six times between 9:00 and 11:00 p.m.; the last time we spoke with the supervisor at the station,” explained the Sigma Pi member. “The lady was taken back to her apartment after the incident and that is where the telephone calls were made. He went on to say that “we asked him to send somebody out to the apartment so she could file a complaint and tell them what happened. They said they would send somebody out and that they were on their way there and no one showed up...Drexel security was notified ... nobody attempted to show up at her apartment.” A few minutes later, across from Towers Hall and in front of the security building, another girl was assaulted. The group tried to take her bookbag and assaulted the victim. “They basically did the same thing to her as they did to the first girl,” said the Sigma Pi member.

Triangle Staff Writer

D rexel’s In ter-fra tern ity Association (IFA) and Panhel- lenic Council’s town watch is still active on campus and has seen more action after this past Wednesday night when 30 to 40 youths, ages 12 to 17, were witnessed committing assaults around Powelton V illage. Several incidents o f assaults occurred, some as close as across from Kelly and Towers dormitories.

Two members of town watch were recently featured by U.S. News and World Report in their1992 special issue of America’s best colleges. In a full page color photograph under crime on college campuses, John Chase of Sigma Pi and a member of Delta Zeta sorority were shown patrolling Drexel's campus. The article reported that “Police say the town watch patrol is partially responsible for the neighbor­hood’s 20 percent drop in crime in the first half of 1991.”

Town watch Chairman Tony Wirtel added some advic$ to students for staying safe in the city. Always walk in groups, even in daylight. Run if you see anyone suspicious; follow your gut feeling. If you see something suspicious, don’t hesitate to call the town watch base station at 590-8723, Drexel Security at

895-2222, or Philadelphia Police at 911.

The town watch program is run by the IFA and cam pus sororities. Every night, patrols of six people walk the streets in two hour shifts, from 8:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. The patrols cover the area from 32nd to 38th Streets, and from the comer at Arch and Lancaster Street to Hamilton Street. Wirtel said that the area they can cover is less if they have fewer people out walking.

The patrols carry two-way radios and keep in contact with the base station in Kelly Hall. If the patrols spot an incident or see something suspicious, they call in to the base station, who then dials the police or Drexel Security. Town watch students have no extra powers, but are “stric tly an eyes and ears extension of the Philadelphia Police D epartm ent,” said Wirtel. However, police say the program is partially responsible for the 20 percent drop in crime in the first half of 1991.

The town watch program is just entering its fifth year, and “ it has never been in greater need ,” said W irtel. It was started by a string of incidents like the ones which took place on W ednesday night. People were being beaten up in broad daylight and one woman was assaulted behind the fraternity houses. After that last incident, two brothers from Pi Kappa Phi and Sigma Alpha Mu came up with the idea o f an IFA run patrol. It was brought up and enacted at the next IFA meeting, and all houses now participate in the town watch program.

Tony stressed the importance of reporting incidents to Drexel Security or the Police. “A lot of people say . that it happens to everybody, and just leave it at th a t.” Even if it seems the police can do nothing, it should still be reported because then security can step up patrols or take other actions. “If your gut feeling is bad, th a t’s a good reason to call.”

powered by Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev and Russian President Boris Yeltsin, at least one American intellectual says America and the West still have reason to fear Communism.

John Stormer, an expert in com m unist philosophy and ed ito r o f the po litics/ religion/education newsletter Understanding the Times, claims the recent dissolution o f the Soviet Union and the Communist Party is actually “another in a series of Leninist ‘two steps back,’ designed to advance the longtim e com ­m unist goal o f world dom ­ination.”

Stormer is also the author of None Dare Call It Treason— 25 Years Later. The new book deals with the ongoing rise and strengthening of Communism throughout the world, including the United States, and offers documentation and commentary to support his claims.

Storm er stated that the attem pted coup was a Com ­m unist deception aimed at getting the W est to donate economic aid “to bail out the failing socialist system for the; fifth time.”

Storm er illustra tes the; questionability of a ‘real’ coupl

M by quoting a story that appeared in The Washington Times:

“It may be true that Domino’s i! Pizza Delivers, but... during a

coup? Pizza Hut does.When supporters of Russian

President Boris Yeltsin were guarding the Russian Parliament building during the coup in the Soviet Union, Pizza Hut deliyered 260 pizzas, 20 cases of Pepsi and gallons of hot coffee to tide tliem over.

Roger Rydell, chief spokes­man at Pizza Hut international headquarters, quoted Mr. Yeltsin as calling the Moscow Pizza Hut... 'Thanks for your support,' Mr. Yeltsin said.”

Stormer"writes that “Com­munism’s ‘other hand’ continues to advance and solidify its influence.” He names southern A frica, Peru, Cam bodia, Afghanistan, and Korea as areas that are steadily growing more socialist.

Continued from page I Rowe, “and were kicking the shit out of her.”

There were two other assaults Wednesday night, bringing the grand total to five assaults in one and one-half hour’s time. Said Tony Wirtel, chairman of the town watch program, “Robbery was not the motivation for the assaults, it was just kids causing trouble.”

A ccording to W irte l, the youths who attacked the girls were wearing backpacks full of eggs, golf balls, and heads of lettuce. L ater that n ight a window in the Gray G ables apartments was broken when a head o f lettuce was throw n

through it.Security has received tips that

the youths are “out to ge t” college kids, said Rowe. One of the few groups actually charged with assault, however, for an incident last week was Pi Kappa Phi, who was put on suspension and fined $500.

Rowe advised students to watch for any black youths over the age of 13 in groups of more than four. If you see one o f these groups, said Wirtel, report them to the town watch base station at 590-8723, or Drexel Security at 895-2222.

Currently Drexel Security is tightening in the Pow elton Village area, and ctui respond to

a call in two to three minutes, said Rowe. Town watch has been instructed to follow the “w olfpacks” from a safe d istance and report their positions to Drexel Security.

(CPS) —. The nation’s experts on cam pus rape told horror stories. More than 10 fraternity brothers gang-rape a virgin at San Diego State University. One year a fte r the incident, the fraternity holds a party in honor o f the event. No one is prosecuted.

A fraternity chapter at Ohio State University and another at B loom sburg U niversity in Pennsylvania require pledges to commit a gang rape or beat up a woman for induction.

Countless women report date and acquaintance rapes only to be told by police and campus administrators that they are to blam e. “Why were you drinking? Why were you alone in the man’s apartment?”

Their forceful voices sent vibrations of anger, frustration and utter confusion bouncing off the walls as they recounted story after story of sexual assault on college cam puses, large and sm all, public and private-nationwide.

Why is this happening?At the first Conference on

Sexual A ssault on Cam pus, experts on rape, students and those working at colleges and universities in counseling, law enforcement and administration promoted a national campaign against campus rape.

The recent conference in Orlando, Fla., was sponsored by the Safe Schools Coalition Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to making colleges and schools a safer place to live and work.

An Increasing ProblemOne in four women in college

today will be the victim of rape or attempted rape.

Rape, especially date and acquaintance rape, is the most

underreported of any crime.About 75 percent of campus

rapes involve alcohol.Those figures come from

Andrea Parrot o f Cornell U niversity ’s D epartm ent of Human Services Studies. Parrot is one of the nation’s leading researchers o f date and acquaintance rape on college campuses.

The Role o f Campus Law Enforcement

Police now prom ote sensitivity and training.

“ If your people in your • department at your university don’t care, nothing you do will come across right,” says Richard Turkiewicz, police chief at the University of Central Florida. “Don’t look for reasons why not to help, don’s say, ‘You violated this safety principle, you did this and that wrong.’”

Student Involvement in Solving the Problem

Jennifer Rabold, a senior at the University of Richmond, is ju s t one o f 60 students who bonded together at the conference to form the National Coalition of Students Against Sexual Assault.

The organization has lofty goals: It plans to develop student workshops and presentations that w ill be coordinated for presentations nationally, to write a new sletter, to address the issues of sexual assault among different ethnic groups, to form a netw ork o f p rofessionals working In i/ie field, to e.slablish a library with information about rape, and to form a support system for rape survivors that will help them relocate to another school if their administration is not responsive.

PHILADELPHIA, Penn. - Although prosecutors in a gang-rape case withdrew criminal charges against two defendants on O ct 8, they still say they believe the female student was a victim.

The charges of tape, indecent assault, indecent exposure, conspiracy and unlawful restraint stemmed from a 19- year-old Temple University student’s claim that six men raped her at the off- cam|ws A l{ ^ Phi Delta house.

“Our investigation is complete and we felt that we cou ldn’t prove the case beyond a reasonable doub t,” said assistan t d is tric t attorney D ianne Oranlund. She is also head of the ofTice’s Rape Unit

Granlund said she could not disclose the inform ation obtained during the investigation but did say that the two men arrested in connection with the rape “are not angels. They took advantage of a young woman in the frate rn ity that night”

She added, “I would not send my daughter to a party at that fraternity house.”

Temple University responded to the dismissal o f charges against M ichael Derita, 23, and Raymond Evers, 22, in a prepared statement

“W hether o r not the acts that took place in the Alpha Phi Delta fraternity house in the early morning o f Sept 12 were criminal, the sequence of activities does not belong in a civilized society," it read.

“Beyond what happened in the couitroom... the events of the past month have served to raise greater awarenessabout acquaintance rape and rcspon-

sibility to treat one another with mutual respect,” it added.

The university has suspended the fraternity as a result of the rape charges. It upheld the suspension after the O ct 8 dismissal hearing.

At that hearing, D erita , a Temple graduate who now sells real estate, told the m edia that he was sorry fo r the negative effect the charges had on Temple and fraternity.,

He told the A ssociated Press, “Whether what we did was immoral was one thing. W hether what we did was illegal is another.”

Granlund said that although allegations against six men exist, the dropping of charges against Derita and Evers officially closes the investigation o f the entire incident because o f insufficient evidence.

NORTH READING, Mass. - If you’re looking for a corporate job, you’ll be glad to know the formal pinstripe suit is a thing of the past, according to a report by Converse Inc., the atfiletic shoe com ply .

Survey findings indicate the slick, diess-for-success look is becoming less popular, with only 22 percent of 201 U.S, companies surveyed having a specific dress code. The same companies, by a margin of 8-to-l, report that their men and women executives are dressing less formally.

“The corporations still expect you to look sharp, but looking sharp is not necessarily a three-piece su it,” says Jennifer M urray, a com pany spokesperson.

Women executives are leading men in the move to more casual office styles, the report says. Some 65 percent o f com panies report that women are wearing less tradtional styles, compared widi 44 percent of the men.

PALO ALTO, Calif. - As if Stanford University hadn’t been handling enough IHoblems o f its own, up popped three - no, one • more last month.

After pediatrics professor and lung transplant researcher Norman Lewiston died in August, a local newspaper ran his obituary, which named his widow.

Shortly after the obituary ran, another woman called the Stanford M edical School to tell o fficials she was Lewiston’s widow.

Cottege Presi Strvice

Finally, a few weeks later, a third wife was d iscovered - the woman, a San Diego nurse, had filed for divorce just one month before Lewiston died.

An investigation by school officials found that Lewiston married his third wife two years ago, his second wife five years ago and his first wife in 1960, with whom he had three children.

The third wife had told reporters she thought he had divorced his first two wives.

While attorneys sort out the mess in terms o f Lew iston’s estate, Stanford officials are looking into another oddity.

Ah audit uncovered a previously unknown bank account in which Lewiston deposited reimbursed research fupds.

BOULDER, Colo. - Employees at the bu rsa r’s office at the U niversity of Colorado recently got a shock when a student pushed a wheelbarrow into the office fiUed to overflowing with quarters and pennies - $1,134 to be exact

The money? One year’s tuition. The wheelbarrow driver was in a definite I’m- angry-and-I’m -not-going-to-take-it- anymore kind o f mood. “It’s just not pocket change anymore,” read a sign taped to the side o f the wheelbarrow.

The angry student was William Roberts, a senior who said the stunt was symbolic gesture to inform the regents that tuition, which just rose 7 percent, is becoming a real problem for students.

Roberts said the money was wrapped in paper wrappers to allow for easy counting by the bursar's office employees.

Gamma Sigma SigmaGamma Sigma Sigma, the

national service sorority, took part in a creepy service project last Saturday with the Philadelphia Zoo. The zoo held its annual Halloween at the Zoo, an event held to be a safe alter­native to trick-or-treating. A pumpkin hunt, the handing out of treats, and showing off scary costumes were the main events that afternoon.

The sisters started the day by dressing up as their favorite Halloween personalities. Then,

as the gates of the zoo opened, they were ready to pass out goodies, maps, and loot bags to the horde of goblins, witches, and Teenage M utant Ninja Turtles. S isters also helped direct the ghoulish visitors to the attractions of the day. The main activity for the Gamma Sig’s, however, was to play with the kids and pose for countless ftimily photos.

If this kind of service project sounds fun, please call the Gamma Sigm a Sigma office 895-3031 for more information about us.

If life on cam pus has you down, then make a difference. As Student Vice President of Academic Affairs under Provost Brown, it is my job to bring attention any problems that you may be experiencing academi­cally. I will take your questions or comments to the appropriate people in administration and the answers. I'll publish all ques­tions or comments of the week in the Triangle and answers to questions previously asked.

Questions For The Week are:

1) When your professor turns in a grade late, why is the grade not applied to that terms grade point average? That grade could very well be the difference for you making the Deans list. The late grade should be applied to tlic term that you had the class.

2) When you have a grade change, why does it take so long for OSIR t9 make the correction on the computer? Can we im­prove the process for grade changes?

I hope to have answers to these questions next week. If

you have a burning question and want some answers, please write me at:

Just about everyone at Drexel has been shafted at one time or another - it's the closest thing Drexel has to a tradition. The next closest thing Drexel has to a tradition is students telling other students about their own shaft.

As a service to the Drexel Community, the Campus Page offers a forum for students to let e<feryone expose themselves in public. Hopefully, the administration will read these and address some of these problems [yes, I realize I'm dreaming - but we can all dream, can't we?]

To have your own shaft story published, submit your own shaft to The Triangle office by 7 p.m. on Wednesday to be printed in that week's edition. When submitting, please include your name and phone number. You can have your name with­held if you wish, but include your name and number regardless.

Without further ado, the shaft of the week...

T his was more than a shaft story it’s more like being shafted, beaten, and left out in the sun to rot. I'm a part time student

and receive no fmancial aid. All 1 wanted was a part time job. Nothing too outrageous - just a job to pay the bills.

This Fall I applied for a job at the library, after a month or so I was finally called back. I was ecstatic - a real job! This meant I could pay my bills, and for that matter eat!

I quickly went to the library to get my schedule and to fmd out what I'll be doing. I got my schedule and was on my way to both personal and fmancial security. But I was only on my way for about two blocks when thoughts of paying my phone bill and feeding myself suddenly fell through.

I didn't lose the job - 1 just ran into bureaucracy at personal. After arriving there I was told to fill out some tax forms and all the other crap you have to do when you get a job. Well after I started filling out the forms, some lady (I'm trying to be civil) told me (after I already missed class and waited half an hour for my interview of course) that part time students could not work for the University. What a load of crap! If this is not blatant dis­crimination, then I don't know vvhat is.

Now I understand that work 'Study students come first, but to exclude students completely t>ecause they're part-tiine and more accessible is ridiculous. Thanks for teaching me what discrimi­nation is, and from what I can tell, you're very good at it. By the way, were you taught by skinheads or from Hitler himself?

The best possible scenario would be that these ten people would go back to their respective houses and

id l their brothers m d sisters about w tut was happening attd what areas lo stay away from as well as how adx-anccd die situation was.

M ayte one to two weeks after that The TrioKgU would find out so that

could report what was happening to the rest o f the campus.

Last time we diedced, the hierarchical stanis o f importance in relation to safety was equally distributed among all students and not a select few IFA members who make up approximately ten percent o f the student body.

Maybe we should check more often.

Maybe it’s time security started coming to us.

There were five assaults on Wednesday within one and a half hours of each other. The Triangle knew about three o f them from other sources and asked security for

details.They refused.We know nothing about the other

two assaults and asked security for information.

They refused.We are bcMh supposed to be

pursuing the same ends and yet for a group o f people who should be considering the safety o f the entire student body, Drexel Security sounds like an oxymoron. Instead of distributing their infomiation as expediently as possible, they have been sitting on jt.

But how many more people have to get brutally attacked before they realize that cooperating with the media will only enhance security’s efforts for a safe campus? Either way we’U get the information out; it just seems like a waste of time, effort and safety to continuously stonewall an ally.

Drexel forgot to invite the facu lty , tooEditor:

The issues, reform questions and recommendations discussed by the Walter Cronkite VIP panel this past week have been examined and articulated by many Drexel U niversity students, faculty members and administrators for years.

It is intriguing that not one member of the Drexel University community was invited to participate on the panel. This decision is right in line with our tradition of articulation without the necessary follow-up, action, agenda and implemen­tation.

It’s time to DU it.

Andrew Verzilli Professor of Economics

Editor:Drexel is to be congratulated on having

the wisdom to invite Walter Cronkite to help celebrate its 100th birthday. He did a masterful job of moderating the panel, “The Frontiers o f Ediication: Into ihe Tw enty-First C entury.” I thoroughly enjoyed the event until Mr. Cronkite raised the pertinent question of whether the U.S. s till m aintains an edge in technology and, more specifically, what role institutions o f higher education should play to hold this advantage. And what a b rillian t question it was - a question that evoked the vision of A.J. Drexel for the twenty-first century. To my disappointm ent, the ensuing discussion fizzled. I peeked into my

T h e s h a f t s t o r y w a s w r o n gEditor:

In the “Cam pus” section o f The Triangle, Kris Calkins described a “shaft o f the w eek.” I must correct an inaccuracy contained in the description of Founder's Day and the discussion about related expenses.

The Centennial video referred to as “costing a whopping $90,000” was actually produced at no cost to Drexel University. Quantum Productions worked with the Office of University Relations to produce this 14-minute vidro telling the story of Drexel’s past and present with lolal funding contributed through the generosity of Sun Company, Inc. The Sun Company also provid^ funding for the production of a new student recruitment video, nearing completion at this writing.

As with the many events planned and im plemented over Founder’s Family Weekend and Founder’s Day, the video was produced to instill pride, generate interest and gather support through fund raising and audience participation. From the many viewers who have seen the video (including the graduating class of 1991), to the countless alumni who will hav« a chance to see the production at future area gatherings, it is a way to spread the good word about our University.

Ann V. Satterthwaite Associate VP for University Relations

Editor:After reading the October 25 issue of

the “Expose Your Shaft!” colum n, I realized that we have not been shafted! (Can you believe it?) I feel it is very important to clear the air on this issue. What I mean is that a fellow student made us think we were shafted. She stated that she “heard that the U niversity hired Quantum Video to make a “Centennial Tape which w ill cost a whopping $90,000.” Are you kidding? Did you bother to find out the Drexel tlid not pay for this video? Did you know that Sun Company, Inc. out o f Radnor, Penn­sylvania (Corporate Communications division) was responsible for the video? Did you know that Sun Oil sent the pro ject our to three Philadelphia producers to bid on it and Quantum Productions (not Quantum Video) was awarded the job? And finally, did you know that Quantum Productions has hired Drexel co-op students? I agree, the Founder’s Day experience may be classified as an official shaft. But it is not right to start rumors that may cause students undue stress. L e t’s get our stories straight. Students have enough to worry about without people speculating on how Drexel is shafting us this time.

brochure — a historian, a professor of English, a philosopher — superb intellects, indeed. But where were the representatives of a great technological university, the home institution? Where were the distingqished faculty-engineers, scientists, or humanists from Drexel? Where were our esteemed alumni? Why wasn’t someone telling Walter Cronkite and indeed the world about one of the finest educational experiments of the day, the E4 Program? “Oh, well,” 1 thought, “maybe this is a fundraiser - maybe we can generate funds for new laboratories, new facilities and for new educational programs.”

As I enjoyed Centennial Chicken, 1 listened to the eloquent lecture of Mr. Cronkite at the luncheon. But my eyes were searching in vain for some of my friends who had attended Drexel as students or who had spent 20, 30, and even 40 years as Drexel faculty members. Someone forgot to invite them. "Oh well," 1 thought, "this is a fundraiser and we should look forward to the dozens of new , richly endowed Centennial Professorships and perhaps hundreds of

scholarships."Then I read the student letters and

ed ito ria ls in the Triangle. It seems someone also forgot to invite them to the celebration. My. thoughts (raveled bapk tw enty some y^ars to the last big celebration at Drexel, on the occasion of its becoming a university. 1 vividly recall the projects the students planned and prepared for this occasion. One group of students used a laser to transm it a television picture through free space - the Drexel Logo. President Hagerty came to see the demonstration and so did many alum ni, faculty , friends, parents and visitors. The students enthusiastically recounted the notion o f optical communication, the technology for the next decades. This pleasant episode, at least to my mind, reflected the real Drexel, and made us all feel good about the Drexel experience.

As Drexel embarks on its next century, let’s not forget about the legacy of its past, and the people who made it worth remembering.

Naive student offers adviceEditor:

A few “street-w ise” hints for law abiding, naive students:

1. Always keep your head up when you are walking down die street. (Don’t look at the sidewalk.) This way, you can see who is walking towards you, and what actions they are taking - like punching you in die face for no reason.

2. If you ride a bike, make sure you lock it up to an absolutely unmovable object. Avoid D rexel’s single-bike, ground mounted, bike racks. Insure your bike!

(S ince they cou ldn ’t get my bike unlocked, diey stole die whole rack along widj it.)

This counU7 boy will be sure to keep you u ^a ted with the newest techniques to avoid being taken advantage of by die scumbags. Hopefully my losses - which are inevitable due to the high amount of crime in University City - will be for your gain. I have lived here for two mondis. Welcome to Philadelphia.

One of my friends, who will remain anonymous, was telling me the other day (over a beer at Carney’s) just how much she hates Drexel. She was complaining about everything - how bad DUFS food is. how expensive the dorms are and how

S o m e t h i n g m o r e

t h a n M o c k e r y

E r ic Z a n d e r

her TA doesn’t even speak English.After she finished her long litany of

complaints (and her beer) she spoke of how she’ll get her revenge on Drexel for giving her the shaft for five long years: she will never give Drexel money as an alumnae. At this point (with the gleam in her eye) I feared I may provoke her to commit a violent act, but 1 don’t always make the smartest choice.

“Why not contribute to Drexel?” I asked. “Look at all we gain here in five years, not ju st the education but the experiences: the fnends made, the classes taken and all the excitement that comes from living in one of the biggest cities in the world.”

"Would you contribute to this hell­hole?” she responded.

I said “Yes, I would.”“You’re better o ff throw'ing money

into the ocean.” She told me with a sneer.At this point 1 feared for my life if I

continued to defend Drexel against this lost cause. I quickly ordered another pitcher of Killian’s Red and turned the conversation to a hew topic I knew would calHI htn- down: h6r latest t>oyfriend.

Though we drank a few more beers (yes, I am promoting the use of alcohol) and discussed many matters, the issue of donating money after graduating continued to nag me for at least 10 or 15 minutes.

Perhaps I’m wrong, but 1 seem to hear an awful lot of Drexel-bashing going on. I admit, even I do it sometimes. If so many people truly hate it here, why don’t they transfer to a school where they would

your bitching do somettiing

better fit in? This is not a prison; there is no evil man with a German accent holding a gun to your head telling you, “Your paperz - zey are not in order! You kan nebber leeve, hahahaha!”

I have always thought it was the duty of a graduate of a private school to contribute in some way to their school once they are out in the Real World. A degree is at least part of the reason each graduate is successful. They can thank their school for that degree.

If Drexel had the money pouring in to its coffers the way Delaware and Penn State do, many o f the “shafts” Drexel gives us would not exist. This is just a big chicken-and-egg kind of thing. We need money to improve student life but if students don’t have a life they will not be happy alum ni/alum nae and will not contribute to their alma mater.

It is always easier to criticize and point out what’s wrong with something than to fix it. I propose three choices to all of you out there who constantly whine about Drexel;

1) Put up or shut up. You talk about how bad it is here and how good it is somewhere else. Go somewhere else. Leave, so we don’t have to hear your incessant whining. You sound like my motorcycle when it revs too high.

2) Stop your whining and take some action . Com plaining accom plishes nothing: Tired of DUFS food? Find out who’s in charge and see what you can do to change it. Think your TA should speak English? Give her (or him) a small hint, like a dictionary (Webster’s Unabridged would be nice). Better yet, go tell her department head her English really sucks and you are going to hunger strike until some action is done. If you’re not willing to try to improve this place, I suggest you try option#!.

3) 1 lied. You only have two options.•••I must add one final note: When I was

going to transfer out of here last summer, one reason was that this place seems to have little or no scHool spirit. One reason I stayed was that I realized “the college

d i s c u s s i o n o n t h e l i b r a r yWhen I began w riting the artic le

“Library makes do without funding”, which appeared in the Oct. 18th issue of The Triangle, I was sure the article ..would be a negative one.

G u e s t

C o l u m n

M. Scott Smith

I started writing the article on a rumor that all funds from the library were being revoked for the next several years, and I even went as far as to get quotes from outraged students. The cuts weren’t as drastic as this, but any cuts are bad, especially in an area that should be receiving more money, not less.

After talking with the Dean o f the Library, Dr. Eileen Hitchingham, I felt confident that the library was working as hard as it could to counterm and the cutbacks. The fault lies with Drexel University, not the library specifically. There’s a few points I’d like to bring up and clarify. .

The title of the article (“Library makes do without funding”) is misleading. I can luckily say that I d idn ’t write the headline—that is done by the editors of

The Triangle. The headline can lead the reader to two false conclusions: that the library does not have any funding, or that the library is doing fine without funding and therefore doesn’t need any.

The purpose o f the artic le was to describe ways the library is dealing with the current cost constraints. I would not be as bold as to say that the library is “making do” by using these alternative forms of information retrieval. A better title might have been “Library finding ways to lessen effects o f budget cutbacks.”

One main point I tried to emphasize in the article was that Hageity is not alone in its problems. Libraries at practically all other educational institutions (Lehigh, Virginia Tech, University of Maryland) are facing the same problems as Hagerty. Things just aren’t going well for college universities.

Moshe Kam and Richard Beard were correct when they said that in order to move Hagerty from a “paper library” to an “electronic library”, the university needs comprehensive design, careful planning and an adequate budget. After talking with Dr. Hitchingham, I felt that two of these requirements are already in place.

See LIBRARY on page 9

There is too much paranoia at Drexei

There are many stereotypes which come to mind about student attitudes towards Drexel. Everyone complains that the students are apathetic and have no school spirit, while teachers and admin­istrators are just trying to give everyone “the shaft.” But there is so much more to it than that.

C a th e r in e C a m p b e l l

I’ve only been here for a year but it seems recently there is an intense feelingof paranoia everj^Where. I ’m not talking about things like rapes and assaults which seem to stand out as a chief concerns among everyone, but internal things.

Let’s start with the new judicial policy. Under this new policy, cases cannot discussed or even reported upon. Students have a right to be informed. When they aren't, outrageous rumors may surface about an event because it isn’t properly explained and reported to the University public.

This summer’s IFA fiasco is a perfect illustration. I came back after the summer with at least five different interpretations hoping that The Triangle could fill me in. All that I could discover was a bunch of “No comment, 1 direct all questions to..." quotes. All of the involved parties were restricted from uttering a word, and if they did, no one understood what the consequences would be.

This policy also affects how people live. Now that this campus has been left without a fraternity system to turn to for social purposes, students are left to turn to themselves. The “apartment party” has become one of the only social outlets behind the usual bar scene.

Dr. Woodring had said last year when canceling the mid-week fraternity parties, that alcohol was the center of enter­tainment at these functions. However he didn’t consider that those houses are able to host a large quantity of people and even provide dancing. The “apartment party” however generally only contains beer as a form of entertainment. The campus seems to be mueh less social as people continue to disperse into their limited groups on a consistent basis.

The landlords of Powelton Village and Drexel’s administration do not appear to feel that this type of social activity should be permitted - even as a substitute (Many students are wondering when the administration is going to keep the library open all night as an alternative.) The students who do attem pt to provide entertainment in their yards and houses now have an added paranoia that if they do have another party, they will get

evicted from their apartments or worse yet, expelled from school under this new policy.

The same goes for the fraternities. Students can barely stand in front of the houses o r on the porch for fear that Drexel security will accuse them of having some sort o f alcoholic social function.

I already know of apartment tenants who have been accused by D rexel’s administration for having parties that didn’t exist. If they did take place it was housed at another building down the street. Landlords are also being pressured from Powelton Village to control these gatherings. Who can blame these studentsfor being concerned?

The final concern which stands out is with the adm inistration. I ’m doing a group project for a class which required us to “do attitude research for a campus organization with a com m unication problem.” In a class of about 25 students, we broke ourselves down into groups of four in a nondiscriminatory manner . We chose the topic of “ identifying the attitudes and perceptions of the Powelton Village Civic A ssociation, Drexel University's administration and Drexel’s Greek system in regards to the campus social life and the current judicial and alcohol policies.”

It sounds fairly complex but we had it going smoothly. We broke the surveys down and randomly gave people responsib ilities which seemed to be simple despite all of the Centennial activities. One of my co-workers who was placed in charge of surveying the administration happens to be a fellow Triangle member. All o f the adm in­istrators, when they found the time, were cooperative in helping with our project, excejpt for two.

They recognized her nanpe from the summer issues o f The Triangle and im hiediately became weary. She explained to them that it was ju s t a questionaire for a class project and all results would be strictly statistical (we do have to do things outside o f the newspaper). Whatever the reason was, they said that they needed to discuss it first. Working on a deadline we didn’t have time for that.

I’m beginning to see this paranoia of the press everywhere, too. As a member of tiie student press, I encounter many things on a daily basis. This school keeps many unnecessary secrets as a result of this paranoia. This school is too stressful academically to have to worry about every trivial thing that is going on. I suppose these responsible parties are creating a domino effect that can never be resolved. Perhaps if someone at the top listens we could ease some of this tension before it destroys the University.

Vlinority based scholarships are racistRight now, a college student

in California is in court to fight for a scholarship that was his at one tim e. He won it fa ir and square — out o f all the appli-

cants, the judges thought he was m ost qualified. Suddenly, i t ’s taken aw ay from him . W hy? W as it because he lied about fam ily’s income, his academic record , or his ex tracu rricu lar a c tiv i t ie s? A c tu a lly , it was because he was w hite , and although he didn’t know it at the tim e, the scholarsh ip was for b lack s on ly . W as th is fa ir? Definitely not.

Actually this was in the news not m ore than a y ear ago. If y o u ’ll rem em ber, a poten tia l President Bush appointee to the Secretary of Education post said that m inority -based sch o la r­ships were racist and in violation of the Civil Rights Acts passed in 1964 and 1965. After coming under fire from m ore special In te res t g rou ps than I cou ld rem em ber, he apologized and

said that the only restriction on them is that federal money could not be used for them. Just one o th e r p o in t in ca se y o u ’ve forgotten — the new appointee was black.

Anyway, the double standard is sh o ck in g . M ill io n s o f Americans are doing everything they can do to promote equality when at the same time racially based scholarships are a reality

and it ap p e a rs fo r now that nothing is being done about it. W hy? B ecause m inorities are guaranteed help, but at a price.

Even though in many cities poverty stricken whites grow up w ith poverty stricken b lacks, because of their color they can’t apply for as many rfeed-based scholarships . While I ’m glad to see an y o n e s tru g g le ag a in s t poverty and succeed, and I agree th a t th e re is a p rob lem concerning the proportions of m in o ritie s w ho are attend ing college , I would hate to think that som eone may have lost a chance because of his or her skin color.

Let me put th is in ano ther light. If scholarships existed for the sole purpose of aiding only poor white students regardless of the fac t th a t th e re m ay be a better qualified minority student, w ould civil rights groups just stand by and let it happen? Of co u rse n o t, they w ould cry racism, start protesting, and get the sc h o la rsh ip o p en e d fo r everybody.

I ’m also coming out against this in part because I'm strugg­ling for every dollar’s worth of fmancial aid I can get, and I'm sure I could get more financial aid if race res tr ic tio n s d id n ’t e x is t . M y fam ily is b a re ly w orking class, I participate in ex tracurricu lar activities more than I probably should, and (I’m not trying to brag) my GPA is above 3.5. I know fo r a fac t, from d o in g a l i t t le re sea rc h myself, that such qualifications would easily make m e a front runn er in m any scho la rsh ip s. But I am ineligible because Af my color.

My situation doesn ’t bother me that much however, because for the moment my family and I are getting by (although to tell the tru th , th is p o s itio n is deteriorating rapidly.) No, what co n c e rn s m e is the p lig h t o f th o se w ho c a n ’t g e t by w ith what they scraped up. Maybe the student in question needed the. scholarship more than the one who won it. I know that back where 1 went to high school, one o f the m in o rity sch o la rsh ip s handed out went to the son of one of the city officials. While that family probably needed the support (all families with kids at college do) shouldn’t that money have gone to someone who was in more financial need?

A n y w ay , m y p o in t is tha t every single scholarship should be opened to everybody. One shouldn’t even have to signify his/her race on the application. M ake scho la rsh ips som ething one deserves because of his/her abilities and fmancial need only. In s tea d o f ju s t h e lp in g out c e r ta in g ro u p s o f th e poo r, concentrate on helping them all with scholarships.

Anything else is racism - pure and simple.

Library needs more attentionContinued from page 7

The com prehen sive design and careful planning is not being perform ed by a com m ittee at D rexel U niversity , it is being performed by the college library community as a whole. Research is being done ev e ryw here on top ics ran g in g from send ing sharper faxes to “scanning” the tex t o f books into com pu ters th ro u g h o p tica l c h a ra c te r recognition (OCR). The entire c o n c ep t o f an “e le c tro n ic library” is centered around the idea of networking; each library is networked with other libraries and they sh are ea ch o th e r s ’ reso u rces . T h is is he lp fu l because the weight and burden o f com prehensive design and careful p lanning does not fall solely on Drexel University, but on th e en t ire c o m m u n ity o f un iversitie s . But tim e — and m oney — is n eeded to m ake electronic forms of information re tr ie v a l equ a l in q u a l ity to physical forms o f inform ation retrieval. W ith the passing o f each day, libraries around the world come closer to this goal, but they still have some work to do. Funding certainly acts as a catalyst in getting the process going.

. I also think it 's important to note that “campus-encompassing networks for article retrieval” is not som eth ing to d ay -d rea m about. The network is in place and can be used today. Nonetheless, there are problems in letting students access th is n e tw o rk . F o r e x a m p le , the lib ra ry w ill need a lo t o f computer terminals hooked up to the network. And there is still that problem o f waiting for an article to arrive. Even so, the limit of information available is increasing w ithout bound. By u s in g the n e tw o rk , one can locate articles which may not be p re sen t at H ag erty even if Hagerty had money flowing out of its ears.

I am very glad that my article stimulated you to write in to The Triangle. W e share the sam e g oal: to im pro ve the W .W . H agerty lib ra ry . 1 can un d ers ta n d th a t D rexel U n ivers ity has lim ited funds right now and needs to cut back in spending, but I question their ju d g m en t in d ec id in g w hat program s lose what m oney. I think the Centennial celebration is great, but imagine the money it m ust be costing. L ike m ost other students at Drexel, I feel the celebration is aim ed away from the U niversity . M any of the C en ten n ia l e v e n ts are undoubtedly just attempts to get

donations and grants from the outside world (which admittedly m igh t b r in g m ore m oney to D rex e l); the s tu d en ts are “e n c o u ra g e d ” to a tten d the events, but the adm inistration would just as well not have the studen ts get in the w ay. You said “poor universities have poor libraries and great libraries have

g rea t l ib ra r ie s ." D rexel U n ivers ity is try ing to com e across as a “g rea t” university through the Centennial events. Drexel should be reminded that the Centennial events performed this year will be m eaningless and fo rg o tten n ex t year. A “g re a t” lib ra ry w ill be meaningful for years to come.

10 * The Triangle • November 1,1991

• Drexel must learn to accommodate its clientsEditor:

W a k e u p D re x e l! I am am a rk e tin g sen io r at D rexel. After having completed several business and marketing courses, one main theme is evident. The o n ly w ay to su rv iv e in the c o m p e ti t iv e 9 0 ’s is w ith a customer-oriented attitude.

M any o f the s ta f f and administrators at Drexel haven’t quite com prehended this fact. In s tea d , they w alk a round wondering why students aren’t beating down the doors to enroll when they are “selling” such a f ine p ro d u c t . S h o u ld n ’t the reputation o f the school mean th a t e v e ry o n e w ill w ant to attend? More importantly, once here, shouldn’t everyone want to s tay? W ell, acco rd ing to the re ten tio n ra te s , s tu d en ts are leaving. And, if you read the October 25 issue of the Triangle, many students who are staying are very frustrated.

Since I'm anxious to show off my new -found know ledg e , I thought 1 would do a com pa­rison of Drexel’s techniques and

a h y p o th e tic a l u n iv e rs i ty . Progressive U., to see if we can come up with an answer to the rising d isco n ten t apparent on this campus.

D re x e l U .: W e have an exce llen t rep u ta tion for ed u ­cation, so it doesn’t matter how we treat students. Everyone will want to attend this school.

Progressive U.: We are a fine institution, but hey, there are lots of fine institutions out there. We want to treat our students well; so they will continue to attend our university.

D re x e l I ) .: W e send an invoice for the current semester and m ake it due a t le as t one week before students are back on campus or in classes.

P rog ressive U.: We realize that many students are out o f tow n b efo re schoo l s ta rts or have not moved back after co-op assignments and also realize that they m ay not w ant to mail a $5,000 check through the less- th a n -e f f ic ie n t U .S ., o r even le ss e r -e f f ic ie n t D rexel m ail systems. We understand that the

w eek befo re c la s se s m any students arrive to participate in drop-add, will be on campus and could stop by the c a s h i e r ’s o ffice to pay in p e rso n . Therefore, we make our tuition due in ac co rd an ce w ith the s tu d e n t’s a r r iv a l, and i f the

. student pays three days late, we don’t assess a $20 late charge. (Even banks give a 15 day grace period.)

Drexel U.: In the bookstore, we post notices from previous sem e ste rs abou t the b ook s required for a class. W e a lso realize that we have a monopoly, so any price can be charged for everything we sell. After all, if a s tudent pays over $ 10,000 to attend this school, what is a little extra mark-up on a textbook?

Progressive II.: We take the time to verify what books the s tu d en t w ill n eed fo r each sem ester, c learly p ost it, and m ake sure there is s u ff ic ien t s ta f f to a ss is t and an sw e r questions the first week o f class.

Drexel U.: We have no one at the Creese desk who can assist with renting a locker for the firk few days o f c la s s . W hen so m eo n e is av a ila b le (w ho h ap p e n s to have an a t t i tu d e about stopping his work to help you) he tells you that you must have a lock to rent it. You say you didn’t know that, ask if you can com plete the pape rw o rk , reserve the locker, and bring in a lock the next day. He says "No," and te lls you to go to th e bookstore to buy one. Since you don’t have a large enough credit lim it on your g o ld ca rd , you again ask if you can pay and complete the paperwork. Again, he says that if it is not locked, they cannot guarantee it will not be rented out to someone else. Y ou are to ld to com e back tom orrow. After all, what else do you have to do? It’s only the fir s t w eek o f c la s s , you are spending ten hours in drop-add. fo u r ho u rs in the b o o k s to re , three days in financial aid, and 24 chapters of reading have been assigned for the second week.

P ro g re s s iv e U .: We kindly assist the student by allowing him /her to complete the paper­w ork and ass ig n a lo c k e r n u m b e r . W e have a system where the locker num bers are lis te d in o rd e r . A fte r one is ren ted , we m erely m ark it as reserved so it is not rented to another student.

Drexel U.: We send students to different offices without the p ro p er paperw ork , espec ia lly those of us in the financial aid

office . A fte r all, som etim e it m ay w ork and sav e us som e tim e filling out the necessary form s. For exam ple, a student f in d s o u t h e r loan check is incorrect at the cashier’s office. S he is s e n t to f in a n c ia l a id . Financial aid tells her to go tell the cashier’s office what to do. (Does financial aid really think the cashier’s office will just take th e s tu d e n t’s w o rd ?!) The s tu d en t g oes to the c a sh ie r 's office and is told they can’t do anyth ing until it is in writing. T hey say financia l aid know s that, and you should go back to them. You go back to financial a id ... well, you get the idea.

P r o g r e s s iv e U .: W e understand that if a student has a problem, it must be resolved. If it takes a letter or a form, we do it, and v>e do it the first time! After all, that student’s money is good at every other university, and they m ight ju s t decide to take it there.

I ’m su re m any o f th e se universities have realized that competition is tough, and they know that without the customers (students), there is no reason to have a product (the school) — no matter how good it is. Look around Drexel. S tu d en ts are un h ap p y . U n hap py s tu d en ts com plain — to each other, to their parents (who often pay the tu i t io n ) , and to p o te n tia l s tuden ts.

A return to the court of the Crimson KingJack Persico_________________Triangle Staff Writer

I’ve got news for anyone who claims they don’t want to be a King Crimson fan: you already are one.

You’ve been listening to King Crimson for years, without realizing it. You’ve heard pale echos of Crimson in the songs of your favorite artists, as its members have played anonymously with everyone from Paul Simon to Laurie Anderson, from Bad Company to the Talking Heads, from Blondie to David Bowie. Well, with the release of the four-CD boxed set The Essential King Crimson: Frame By Frame, now’s your chance to finally experience King Crimson in their natural habitat, so to speak. You’ll quickly see why so many conventional (and a few un­conventional) artists have frequently called on Crimson members to enhance their work.

Unfortunately, since Crimson’s own music was always far too extreme to get any airplay, most people have no clue as to what the band was all about. Listen to Frame By Frame and you’ll get a good idea. And a serious headache. King Crimson was many things, but they were never subtle.

Frame By Frame opens with “21st Century Schizoid Man,” the glorious blast of funk metal that kicked off their debut album. In the Court of the Crimson King, way back in 1969 (while the Red Hot Chili Peppers were probably still harassing their elementary school class­

F o u r h o u r s o f F r ip p e r y c a u s e s “ ta p io c a p u d d i n g ” b r a in

mates). The first disc focuses on the Crimson’s uneven “psychedelic” birth, with bassist Greg Lake singing some of the most hippie-dippy lyrics ever written against a backdrop of horns, flutes and swirly mellotrons. Other than “Schizoid Man,” they sound really dated. These songs were considered milestones when they were released, but now that psych­edelia is so pass6 they’re really just artifacts of that occasionally silly era. However, throughout disc one you can clearly hear the band’s style taking shape — jazzy instrumental music driven by R obert F ripp ’s discordant, atonal guitar playing.

The second disc focuses on the Crimson from 1972 -1974, which now included drum m er Bill Bruford from Yes and bassist/vocalist John W etton from Roxy M usic.The m usic from this period is challenging, aggressive, even brutal at times — it grabs you by the throat and demands attention. For Ae unsuspecting listener, this disc’s relentless, in-your-face barrage of noise is enough to turn your brain into tapioca pudding (note; this is an endorsement, not a criticism). On tracks

like “Fracture” and “Larks’ Tongues in Aspic” (catchy title, eh?), the band plays free-form noise that is tantamount to what is now called thrash metal.

Most of the other tracks seem reserved by com parison. However, songs like “Easy Money” and “The Great Deceiver” show the band’s eccentricities beginning to coalesce into tighter, more palatable song structures, even if their lyrics were

still goofy. The first line of “The Great Deceiver” goes like

this: “Health food faggot with a bartered bride- /Likes to comb his

hair with a dipper ride." Then it starts to get weird.

The third disc is devoted to Crim­son’s early-1980s reincarnation as a deranged, hyper­

active new wave band. The music of

this final version of the band is noticeably d if­

ferent than that of the 1970s: it’s much more structured (but even

m ore com plex), is generally more listenable, and the playing is much more disciplined. In fact, “Discipline” was the original name they toured under in 1980, but they evolved (devolved?) back into good old “King Crimson” and called the new album Discipline.

In addition to recruting Bruford again, Fripp replaced W etton with session bassist and G. Gordon Liddy look-alike Tony Levin (from Peter Gabriel’s band), as well as guitarist/singer Adrian Belew, fresh from a stint with the Talking Heads. B elew ’s vocals are a passable David Byrne im itation, but his manic guitar playing really added a new direction to King Crimson. This was the first time Fripp deigned to allow another guitarist share the spotlight with him.

Much of the energy of this material stem s from the contrast between the extroverted, laid-back Belew and the prissy, overbearing Fripp. On the set’s title track “Frame By Frame” (originally released on Discipline), Fripp flaunts his ability to play incredibly complex note progressions with an almost inhuman pre­cision. B elew ’s guitar, meanwhile, is screeching away like Godzilla attacking Tokyo.

Even to a stalwart Crimson fanatic, though. Frame By Frame does start to get tedious in the middle of this disc, espe­c ially on “ R equiem ” — yet another Crimson noisefest. By now — thirty tracks into the set — we know dam well that King Crim son could make Jimi Hendrix sound like Pat Boone. It would have been be tte r to balance out this “essential” set with more of the diverse material from this era, like “Neal and Jack and M e” from 1982’s Beat, their underrated follow-up to Discipline.

"Oh, and uh, oh yeah. Groove is in the heart.”— Bootsy Collins

The above statement is a pretty accurate sum­mation of rock music in 1991. Everyone from Rush to Metallica are abandoning excess and going for the gut-level groove. Such is the case of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, whose new album Blood Sugar Sex Magik is definite step in that sim plistic direction.

The Bay-area thrash/funk quartet has turned down the thrash and pumped up the funk on Blood Sugar Sex Magik. If yo u ’re looking for remakes of heavy-hitters like “Higher Ground” or “Stone Cold Bush” from 1989’s Mother’s Milk, you may be disappointed. Such bombast is shunned in favor of a warmer, ^ mid-tempo sound.

Gone also is the more com- H m ercial production that was • prevalent on Mother's Milk .Pnxlucer Rick Rubin goes for a very organic, ’70s sound. T h e ^ ^ ’ l ^ instrument sounds are very bare, as are singer Anthony Kiedis’ vocals.

This bare-bones approach accentuates a more sophisticated song style by the Chili Peppers. The sparse song construction and tasteful arrangements on Blood Sugar Sex Magik seem almost, dare I say, elegant. Without the commercial gloss, the true beauty of the songs on Blood Sugar Sex Magik shines through.

The majority of the tunes on Blood Sugar Sex Magik still follow the standard Red Hot Chili Peppers framework, however; funky guitar riffs over a rock solid bass and drum groove. Except for a few tunes like “The Greeting Song,” the tempos are more sedate. The riffs are still heavy, though, especially on “Suck My Kiss” and “My Lovely Man.” "Sir Psycho Sexy” and “The Righteous and the Wicked” are built on slinky slow grooves that really hit low.

Acclaimed bassist Flea has abandoned the slap- happy style he showcased on Mother’s Milk for a more soulful funk sound. Flea’s bass parts app­roach hip-hop on some songs, like the heavily pro­cessed lines of “Sir Psycho Sexy” and the lower- than-low timbre on “If You Have To Ask.” Only on “Naked in the Rain” does he display the slap bass virtuosity that he’s famous for. Once again, his new style shows off the groove he establishes with drummer Chad Smith.

A big surprise on Blood Sugar Sex Magik is the inclusion of two acoustic guitar numbers. John Frusciante’s acoustic outings are very soulful and

loaded with ’70s tradition. The gentle “I Could Have L ied” features a Neil Young-

inspired electric solo. “Breaking The Girl” is a bit more aggressive, and

even features a Mellotron (whoa! ’70s flashback!) flute part. As different as these songs sound, on Blood Sugar Sex Magik, they fit in perfectly.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik is a very different album for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. But under-

^ lying all the stylistic and sonic diversity, the Chili’s creed remains

the same. As expressed in “Sir Psycho Sexy": “Now I lay me down to sleep / 1 pray

Ihe Funk will make me freak / if I should die before I waked!Allow me Lord to rock out naked."

Or as Flea would put it, “The groove is the almighty thang.”

^Beauty and the Beast^The making of another Disney classic

S te v e n D . S e g a l

Triangle Staff Writer

This holiday season, The Walt Disney Studio will pre­miere the latest addition to its distinguished family of cher­ished animated films - Beauty & The Beast. The long line of Dis­ney favorites began way back in 1937 when Walt Disney released what was at that time the first feature-length animated movie, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Snow White set the standard by which each future Disney project would be mea­sured, and the animators main­tained those standards with such additional classics as Pinocchio, Fantasia, Bambi, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, Peter Pan and 101 Dalmatians, to name just a few.

Not only have these classic films endured through the years and stood the test of time (as successful theatrical re-releases prove), but D isney has con ­tinued to make new animated adventures. While the 70s was a slow period for the studio with the creation of fewer films {The Aristocats, Robin Hood and The Rescuers), the 80s witnessed a rebirth with The Fox and the Hound, The Black Cauldron, The Great Mouse Detective, Oliver & Company, Who Fram­ed Roger Rabbit?, The Little Mermaid and 1990’s The Rescuers Down Under. Though the stories o f these films are individually unique, they all dem onstrated the m ark o f Disney excellence: memorable characters, cheerful humor and breathtaking artistry — specific attention to detail frame after frame and a flowing style of ani­mation that unmistakably re ­flected the care and love of its artists. And in films like Oliver& Company and The Little Mermaid, the soundtracks boast­ed Broadway-calibre scores fea­turing original songs, again in the classic Disney tradition of

songs by com poser Alan Menken and lyricist Howard Ashm an, the O scar-w inning team behind The Little Mermaid.

The story, always a key factor in determ ining w hether the Disney brass w ill choose to make the film or not, is simple. In a French village late in the 18th century, a bright young woman. Belle, finds refuge from the repetitiveness of her every­day existence by reading books and dream ing of finding ro ­mance and true love. When her father discovers the lair of the Beast, he is taken prisoner; In exchange for her father’s free-

during a ballroom dance scene. It’s refreshing to know that even in the making of its film s, Disney continues to maintain its high standards of quality as well as tradition.

Beauty & The Beast has been in production for nearly three years, which is the amount of time required to undertake such an enormous endeavor as mak­ing an 80- to 90-minute anima­ted film. When you figure that each second o f screen time equates to 24 frames of film, you can imagine how many tens of thousands o f individual frames are involved, multiplied

BeUe and her Beast in Disney’s new ‘Beauty and the Beast’dom. Belle offers to be the Beast’s prisoner instead. There, with the help of the enchanted castle staff - a teapot, a can­delabra and a mantle clock - Belle leams the meaning of true love, as she begins to look be­yond rough exteriors and see the heart and soul of a human prince that exists beneath. Meanwhile, Belle’s suitor - a muscle-bound brute named Gaston - becomes enraged with rejection and plots to get even...

Over the past few weeks, a representative o f The W alt Disney Company has been visiting various college cam-

LumUre the candkstiek has Jerry Orbach’s voice

musical anim ated films. The films come together to provide something greater than the sum of its parts, transcending the boundaries o f sim ple child- oriented cartoons and becoming magical works of grand enter­tainment for children and adults.

That tradition continues with Beauty & The Beast, the 30th full-length animated film from W alt Disney. Based upon the classic fairy tale, the film is also a m usical featuring six new

puses, presenting a program ex­plaining the making of this film. What was most revealing about the presentation is that despite the advent of computer anima­tion and d igital film m aking, nearly all of Beauty & The Beast was painted frame by frame, by the hands of roughly 600 anima­tors. Computers were used only to help create complex back­ground scenery during the sequ­ences that required sweeping camera movements, particularly

by the tremendous amount of work that must go into each of them.

The process of animating the frames isn’t the first thing to be completed however. The frames are painted after the voices and songs are recorded, so that the artists can get both the vocal and visual nuances to match those of the actors and actresses (just think back to The Little Mer­maid, in which the animated character of Scuttle the seagull more than vaguely resembled the actor who gave him a voice. Buddy Hackett). While several hundred animators were assem­bled to create the film, there were nine supervising animators, one for each main character.

In the case o f the key anim ator o f the Beast (Glen Keane), he combined the fea­tures of a lion, a buffalo, a wild boar, a gorilla, a wolf and a bear to create the exterior of a beast; but he had to carefully inject a feeling of humanity, sincerity and love into the character as well. As the Disney classic films based on fairy tales are considered to be the definitive tellings of such tales, this Beast will likewise be looked upon as the ultimate incarnation of the character.

The vocal talent involved in Beauty & The Beast includes Paige O ’Hara (Belle), Robby Benson (Beast), Angela Lans- bury (Mrs. Potts, the teapot), Jerry O rbach (L um iere, the candelabra), R ichard W hite (G aston), and David Ogden Stiers (the film ’s narra tor— Cogsworth, the mantle clock). The film ’s d irecto rs, Gary Trousdale & Kirk Wise sepa­rately contributed towards the animation in The Black Caul­dron (1985), The Great Mouse Detective (1986), Oliver & Company (1988), The Little

U r b a n D a n c e S q u a d g e t s a b e t t e r p e r s p e c t i v e o n i t s s o u n d

Adam BlyweissTriangle Staff Writer

It is too, too rare that a band defies categorization as steadily as Urban Dance Squad. Face it: if y o u ’ve heard them , y o u ’ve, probably asked yourself, “What the hell is this? House metal? Ska soul? Funk rap? Jesus Jones meets Living Colour by way of Terminator XT’

T he an sw er , o f co u rse , is “m aybe.” W hatever it is, this five-m an interracial outfit has released their second offering of it . Life 'n Perspectives o f a Genuine Crossover, and it is now more recognizable as music than their 1989 debut. Mental Floss for the Globe, which was a near-solid wall o f noise.

When UDS — vocalist Rude- boy, guitarist Tres Manos, bass­is t S il, p e rc u ss io n is t M agic Stick, and DJ DNA on turntables— got started, they com bined the various rock and hip-hop styles they had seen in the club circuits of New York City and the N etherlands into a sound uniquely their own. This sound was packed with beats provided by DNA and Magic Stick, but it was also guitar- and feedback* dense and supported by Rude- boy’s lead vocals.

This apparently angry young black man supposedly gave his ' all on Mental Floss's son gs about drugs (“Piece of Rock”), success ("Fast Lane,” “Famous When You’re Dead”), and music in g en e ra l (“P ra y e r fo r M y Demo,” “Struggle for Jive,” the b lan d h it “D eep e r S hade o f Soul”). My friends, Chuck D .’s job is safe; Rudeboy and the rest o f UDS are some o f the m ost monotonous rappers ever placed on this planet. They also employ some of the weirdest lyrics and most obscure, oblique samples

used by any artist with an “MC” or a “DJ” in their name. Worse yet, when Rudeboy wasn’t dron­ing on the first album, he was scream ing like a death-m etal wannabe; you need only to hear the cries of “Mental f*ck! Men­tal f*ck! Mental f*ck!" on “God B la s ts the Q u e e n ,” or “666 sucker!" on “T he D e v il ,” to never want to hear the “ultimate def sound” again.

It seems, however, that Rude­boy and his homeboys are start­ing to learn fn>m their mistakes, and have made Life 'n Perspec­tives an excellent second effort. The Squad is still loud, but less “n o isy .” They h it the ground running with the spare, s lam ­ming beats of “Comeback” and do their dam ndest to maintain that song’s force for the entire 57 minutes of CD time.

“Comeback” rails against cor­p o ra te sp o n so rsh ip and rock geezers going on tour; lines like “Pepsi, CokelCoke, PepsilOld Faithful for the industry" are s til l a b it s tran g e b u t are an im p ro v em e n t o v e r Mental Floss's poorly delivered m es­sages. Taking cues from De La Soul and F ishbone, UDS also includes four related tracks on the a lb um , en t it led “L ife ’n ’ P e rsp ec t iv e s 1-IV .” T h ey all consist of Rudeboy rapping over a heavy, fuzzy beat — so heavy and fuzzy th a t h is ly rics are almost unintelligible.

T h a t’s alw ays been a co m ­plaint about the Squad, and it is quite ju s tif ied w hen you hear new songs like “Thru the Eyes o f Jason.” “Mr. EZway,” “For the P la s te r s ” and “ W ino the Medicineman.” These guys have a habit o f h itting R .E .M .-like levels of vocal obscurity. Some­tim es they s in g lik e th a t on p u rp o se , b u t o th e r t im es the production on a song leaves one

or m ore in s trum en ts o r tu rn ­tables making improvised noises in the background throughout the entire song. I t’s distracting, annoying and quite evident on material like “(Thru) the Gates of the Big Fruit.”

O f co u rse , the re are m an y more instances where UDS gets it m ore r ig h t than w rong . “ (T hru) the G ates o f the Big F ru i t” soun ds lik e Mental Floss's title track, but it is act­ua lly one o f R u d e b o y ’s best s in g in g e f fo r ts and an OK example o f UDS harmony. The Squad even adds in some piano, s lo w ly bu t su re ly ex pand in g their horizons. “ R outine” is a swinging soul number — a sad, organ-backed tune where Rude­boy fee ls “ like tak ing a bath with my toaster” because h e ’s lost his love aild the rest of the world’s “routine” sucks.

T here are a few ripo ffs on Life ‘n Perspectives, but UDS can be fo rg iven , b ecau se the son g s are s ti l l p re t ty good. “C a re le s s ,” a th row aw ay rap about selfishness, recalls Living C olour’s “Love Rears its Ugly H e a d ,” r ig h t dow n to u s ing s n ip p e ts o f 1940s son gs in b r id g e s and ch o rd c h a n g es . “ G ran d B lack C it iz e n ” p ro ­claim s “universa l” importance for the black race over a guitar riff copied from David Bowie’s “Fame.”

Whatever bad can be said of th is second UDS album , it is almost totally overshadowed by song s w hich are aw esom e in their com plexity, danceability, and flat-out power. Some have already been mentioned; there is also “Son o f the Culture Clash,” w h ere R u d eb o y te lls us h is "music is a symbol of a jigsaw.” Big surprise. “Harvey Quinnt,” apparently a pleading conver­sation with a racist neighbor, has

Crim son’s ‘Fram e by F ram e’ box set doesn’t disappointContinued from page 12

disc closes with the unreleased track “The King Crimson Barber Shop,” an a capella barbershop quartet performance. After all the histrionics that preceded it, this light-hearted song unexpectedly ends the disc on an upbeat theme.

The last disc contains three live tracks from each o f the band’s periods — dippy psych­edelia, proto-m etal, and psy­chotic new wave — and, no, the stuff on this disc is not super­fluous. Unlike similar material on other boxed sets, this isn 't fluff tacked on to fill another CD. Only one of the live tracks (“Schizoid Man”) also appears on the other discs; the rest show how strange Crimson could get in concert, as if there were any doubt. In particular, the live version of “Indiscipline” that closes the disc is even more

dem ented than the original (quite a feat, too).

The digitally remastered set is lavishly packaged with a chro­nology of the band, scores of reviews of their work (both good and bad) and lots of photos, including a few hilarious ones of the lilywhite Fripp sporting what was unequivocally the world’s worst Afro back in the 1970s.

In all. Frame By Frame will seem exasperating to newcomers because it is just too much to digest. As a summation o f an “experimental” band, the set is pretty representative: although they sometimes went overboard. King Crimson were always bold enough to take chances. Some ideas worked, some didn’t — and they’re all here. But don’t be scared away; th e re ’s too much important stuff here that needs to be heard. It’s for your own good. Y ou’ll thank me later.

Continued from page 13 Mermaid (1989), The Rescuers Down Under (1990), and the short that accom panied The Rescuers D. U., The Prince and the Pauper. And, of course, the team of Alan M enken & Howard Ashman has put together another rousing, buoy­ant score with songs that are sure to etch their way into the m emories o f m ovie-goers as easily as did “Under the Sea” and “Kiss the G irl.” Sadly, lyricist Howard Ashman passed away earlier this year while com pleting the score for Disney’s next animated project, Aladdin.

Since 1985, the Disney Studio has maintained its promise of re­leasing a brand new animated feature film every year (with the exception of 1987, which none­theless saw two highly suc­cessful rereleases; the 50th Anniversary of Snow White for the summer and Cinderella for the holidays). C urrently in

production at Disney are the anim ated film s Aladdin (for release this time next year and featuring the voice o f Robin W illiam s), Who Discovered Roger Rabbit? (the prequel to the 1988 smash). King o f the Jungle, Swan Lake, The Night­mare Before Christmas (to be d irected by form er Disney anim ator Tim B urton) and Fantasia Continued (tentatively set for 1996, which will sub­stitute new musical segments for some oid ones, bringing Walt Disney’s original dream of hav­ing Fantasia constantly evolving and being updated to fruition).

After a slide show tracing the development of each character, a brief video presentation of three musical numbers from the film showed work-in-progress mate­rial (when specific sequences were incomplete, pencil con­ception drawings were used to show what the finished film would look like). Even in this raw state, the marriage of music

and animation effortlessly cast its magic spell.

In a rare move that reflects complete confidence in the film, Disney has been test-screening w ork-in-progress prin ts o f Beauty & The Beast at film festivals and opinion screenings across the country. Though incomplete, the movie is still generating unanimous applause. By the print date of this article, the artis ts involved in the creation of Beauty & The Beast w ill have com pleted the last frame, insuring that the film will m eet its planned N ovem ber 22nd release date. And on that day, the brass at the D isney Studio will undoubtedly feel safe that their reputation for p roviding the best fam ily entertainm ent is secure, that the ir la test creation is a welcomed addition to a beloved collection of classics, and that U ncle W alt w ould m ost definitely have been proud.

and Elvis C ostello with his favorite song “I Only Use My Gun When Kindness Fails.” He added a nice touch to the evening.

Hiatt is now a premiere song­writer and one of the best live performers around. His songs ring with sincerity and humor. His songs are peopled with characters on the edge of life , but filled with a great sense of humor. His presence on stage is one full of mastery and love of performing. He backed up all of the o th e rs’ tunes with either gritty guitar chops or bluesy, ringing solos. He never tried to outshine anyone, but his vocals and guitar playing are a musical nirvana. He sang stu ff from 1988’s Slow Turning and a new romper penned with Ry Cooder, Nick Lowe and Jim Keltner

called “Don’t Think About Her (When You’re Driving)”. Hiatt ju st shines on stage and everybody gets warm.

Lyle Lovett was a treat, too. Lovett sang older material with his unique, quivering vocals and quirky guitar style. In his green suit, and high hair, he really is the David Lynch o f country m usic. L ovett’s voice is so unique. He can raise the hairs on the back of your neck with one quivering note. He sang “If I Had A B oat” (my favorite Lovett song) and other ditties like “Good Intentions.” He was right on.

The night of Hiatt, Lovett, Clark and Ely was a “night of win” as Mare and I say. Full of wonderfully executed songs ranging from the sly casualness of Guy Clark to the wholesome mastery of John H iatt to the

quirky, twisted perspective of Lyle Lovett. These boys are masters, and it was great to see and hear such performers do what they do so well.

Classifieds PolicuThe Triangle Classified Section is the best way to get your word across. And best

of all, non-business classified ads are FREE to students, faculty, and staff. For all others, the cost is only $3.50 for the first 25 words and $.15 for each word thereafter. All Classified advertising is prepaid.

For non-paying ads, there is a 40 word and 2 ad limit per person. These ads can only be run for 3 weeks at a time, and then another form must be completed.

All classifieds must be submitted to The Triangle office, in writing, by 5:00 p.m. on the Tiiesday before the Thursday you wish your ad to appear. If there is a charge for your advertisement, full payment must be received before the ad can run. The Classified Advertisement form must be filled out completely or the ad will not be printed. The forms are available anytime in The Triangle’s lobby, inside of 3010 MacAlister. If there are no copies of the classified form available (this happens occasionally), write your ad on a full sheet of paper, and include your name, organi- 'zation, phone number, and student number if you are a Drexel student, or your name, organization, address, and phone number if you are not a Drexel student. Always make note of the date the ad was placed, which section you wish the ad placed in, and how long you want it to run and sign it. This information is neces­sary, or no guarantees will be made.

Classifieds will not carry over term breaks. Classifieds will absolutely not be taken over the phone. Any changes in a classified ad must be submitted in writing to the Classifieds Manager by the normal deadline. Changes will be subject to a $1.00 charge, prepaid.

With the basketball season just around the comer, Drexel is preparing for a new beginning. Although it is the beginning of a new system, expectations are very high. As a matter of fact, the team has set a high goal for itself. “I told the team our only goal this year is to win the North A tlantic Conference(NAC) Cham pionships in M arch,” stated head coach Bill Herrion.

Ironically, the beginning of a new era also marks the final year for the heart and soul o f the team. Seniors C larence A rm strong, Dan Leahy, Jonathan Raab and Michael Thompson, along with the rest of the team, are working hard now to make this year the beginning of a successful time

period for Drexel basketball.The new beginning started

with Drexel’s move from the East Coast Conference to the NAC, and continued with the acquisition of coach Herrion. The next step is for the team to establish a positive attitude and work ethic, and according to Herrion, that must be done

World Series entertains fans world wide despite its lack of big-name starsJohn Van NessOf the Triangle

Well, it was full of drama. It was the perfect Cinderella story. Two teams that finished last in their respective divisions one year ago battle back not only to win their division, but also to represent their league in the Fall Classic. CBS could not have written a better script, and they certainly prospered from the tense action that kept viewers glued to the tube. CBS also prospered from the highest ratings they have seen in a while. Baseball fans all over the world were shown why baseball is still the greatest American past-tim e. Fans w itnessed baseball at its grandest

Still, despite the fact that it was the most entertaining World Series since 1986 when Bill Buckner let Mookie Wilson’s weak grounder go between his legs in Game Six to give the Mets new life, something was missing from the 1991 World Series between the Minnesota Twins and A tlanta Braves. E)espite the fact that both teams played hard-nose baseball, some untangable aspect was missing from the Series.

Although I can not say exactly what was missing, it probably has something to do with the two teams that participated in the Series. No

offense to A tlanta and M in­nesota fans, but both teams lack an identity. Symbolic particles such as a tomahawk and a handkerchief provided the only identity for the two teams, which does not say much for the team. Most teams can be identified with a great a player who leads the team. For example, the Los Angeles Dodgers have Darryl Strawberry, and the Pittsburgh Pirates have Barry Bonds. The D etroit Tigers have C ecil Fielder, and the Phillies - well that was a bad example.

Although both teams have great players, there were no marquee players to follow during the Series. The Twins’ Kirby Puckett is probably the best player in baseball, but he’s not the type of player that fans love to love or love to hate. The Braves also suffer from the same problem. David Justice and Ron Gant are great players, but once again, they do not incite em otions the same way big name stars like Will Clark and Jose Canseco do.

Being that no players with super-egos were available to steal the spotlight, baseball strategy was able to get the attention it deserved. As always with baseball, strategic decisions made on the spot are subject to second guessing. Braves manager Bobby Cox made quite a few questionable decisions.

First of all, Cox opted to open

the series with the veteran of his young pitching staff, Charlie Leibrandt, instead o f his ace Tommy G lavine. Although Leibrandt did not pitch horribly in Game One, the Braves suffered the loss. Leibrandt was a lso the center o f another important decision Cox made in the series. In the 11th inning of Game Six o f the Series, Cox chose to lift stopper Alajandro Pena after two solid innings of relief. Cox brought in the lefty Leibrandt with Puckett, who hit over .400 against left handed pitching for the, leading off the inning. Puckett, promptly drove Leibrandts 2-1 offering over the left-centerfield wall to push the series into a seventh and final game.

The series was full of unusual events. Both teams had opportunities to put it away. Lonnie Sm ith’s baserunning mistakes may very well have cost the Braves the series, but also give credit to the Twins infield for working a perfect decoy to keep Smith from scoring. Also commend Kent Hrbek for using every trick in the book when he lifted Gant’s leg off x)f the bag to get an out call at firstbase. Just when you thought you’ve seen it all, magical moments like these strengthen your love for baseball.

during the practice sessions.“ I t ’s only been about two

weeks that w e’ve been in practice but the attitude and work ethic of this team is great,” said Herrion. “We try to make practice as com petitive as possible. I want every player in our program to improve with each practice. We put our ten best players against each other during our practice. It makes our bench stronger to practice against the five s tar te rs ,” explained Herrion. “ It also makes our starters stronger.”

According to Coach Herrion, the offensive game plan is to confront the opposition with a variety o f scoring threats. Thompson, Leahy, Raab and sophom ore Mike W isler all Hgure to play pivotal roles in the H errion’s offensive scheme. “Michael is our premier scorer,” said Herrion. “He averaged about 18 points a game last year as a junior. I’d like to see him do the same again this year.

He’s a real scorer. A lot of the things [we do on offense] will be geared at having him score. He’s a great athlete and a hard worker. When yo u ’ve got someone with his t^ents, you’ve got to let him score,” Herrion said.

“Raab is our m ainstay inside,” added Herrion. “We’ve got to get him the ball more. As a matter of fact, the team has set a goal for itself to win the North Atlantic Conference Champ­ionships in March.”

“W e’ve got to get get him about IS shots a game. He made 64 per cent of his shots last year, and he averaged 11 shots a game,” said Herrion. “If he’s going to shoot 64 per cent again this year. I ’ll take my chances

with that”Herrion also wants to create

more scoring opportunities for Leahy, his three-spot forward. “Dan Leahy has been rock solid in practice. He is an excellent defensive player,” stated Leahy. “I ’ve talked to him and I told him I want him to be a little more aggressive as a scorer. I want him to take more shot, and he has been during practice, and he has looked very impressive.”

Herrion also wants to employ a strong parameter attack led by Wisler. “His ability to shoot the three point shot is great”

Herrion is confident that his team is big and tough enough to compete with the some of the bigger teams on the schedule. His game plan is to throw his bigger players inside court. “We will use Matt Attar by moving him closer to the basket this year. We also have a 6 ’10” player from France named Gilles Bogaert. H e’s a very good athlete and should help improve our physical inside game.”

This year's schedule includes some hard non-conference games along with the important conference games. The first game of the regular season will be against Lehigh on November 25. The team will then u-avel to Jamaica, NY for the Lapchick Tournament, where they will meet S t Mary’s-CA in the first round, and UNC-Wilmington or St. John’s in the second round. The schedule does not get easier after that. Penn State Georgia St., N avy, and R utgers all follow.

Coach Herrion expects the difficult schedule to help the team in the long run. “Those games in the beginning of the schedule, hopefully, will prepare us for the NAC C ham p­ionships,” said Herrion. “I think we can com pete in this conference imm^iately.”

Taz Devils and Rhinefarts keep unbeaten recordsPaul HashimSpecial to the Triangle

The third week of inuamural football brought upon many exciting games. First there was the battle of the undefeated Taz Devils and the Unknown Vikings. Joe D iorio and the Vikings came up too short, while Paul Hashim threw four touchdowns and ran for two of his own to beat the Vikings 42 - 6 .

The Untouchables touched the Knads Just right, to win 22- 14. Their first win of the season, but it proved to be an important one, elim inating the K nads’ playoff chances and saving their own. The Bandits remain undefeated getting an easy win over ROTC who didn’t even
