The Deadly Nightshades HE Queensland police have always behaved like pigs, especially against group living hairies, so it comes as no surprise to witness the relish w ith w hich they now round up Fijians. These people have been taken fro m their beds (w ith o u t warrants), locked up, compelled to endure the indignities o f prison and not even allow ­ ed to see friends or relatives. A ll fo r what?

Petty visa irregularities. A nd w ho cares if Fijians w o rk a little on the side? A l Grassby apparently does, he called them "n o n peo­ p le ", as he dashed o ff to his seamstress.

No people are " n o n " people, and u n til Al Grassby comprehends this, he is nothing but an inhum ane, bureaucratic xenophobe. Hur­ ry, declare an amnesty . . .

W hich brings us d ire c tly to the subject o f awareness. We planned a special issue on the theme. The response fro m readers o u t ava­ lanched Anarchy ( TLD 1/10) and we kept p u ttin g th e essays, poems and o ther delights c o n fid e n tly in brow n folders. Then we read them . Awareness, we realised, is something th a t should seep through to us co n tin u a lly, like a vapor, rather than be shouted at us through a megaphone. The OD threshold is low . So w hile there's plenty o f awareness in this issue — n o t always labelled as such — the rest o f Daylights takes care o f normal w eekly business, and much o f the material has been heW over to be dropped delicately in fu tu re issues . . . a steady d rip d rip drip o f Awareness forever. (A nxious awareness con­ trib u to rs stay cool and op tim istic.)

FollowI ing this Melbourne’s prisoner action I groups claimed a prisoner in Pentridge was offered parole if lie underwent I hormone treatment.

They couldnt confirm their facts, but I that won't stop me. The prisoner in question pulled out from the treatment after he noticed he was growing a pair o f breasts. There’s no point in telling |you his parole was refused.

HE NEWS that a barnacled, geri­ atric schoolteacher lost out to a [ menzoic wheeler dealer, father in law o f a tennis champ fills me with such awe that I am unable to leap into profound political comment on the W A state election.

HE prime minister o f Australia was struck by a full can o f soft drink and a tomato. When I heard that I first thought “ that will lose the National Alliance party some votes in the WA state elections” . And, again I was right . . . expecting a tally o f 15 percent, they got a total o f nine percent.

A t the same time I thought o f that national anachronism, the good sir Paul Hasluck, the governor-general. He was smirking, I bet, when reports hit govern­ ment house. He would well remember the day Gough hurled “ soft drink” at him during a debate in the house o f reps when sir Paul was caught up in the nasty affairs o f slanging day-to-day fed­ eral politics.

H ILE obsessed with our autumnal scurryings fo r ever decreasing fo d ­ der to get us through the winter, the news that US space probes have found the planet Mercury “ rougher than the moon” must come as a severe jolt to our hopes.

Billions have been spent gleaning this sort o f information and it ’s a bummer to find the heavens arent exactly filled with floating prairies for the Americans to grow wheat.

Anyway, scientists observing the pro­ gress o f Mariner 10 cried: “ The solar system belongs to us.” Perhaps they’ll be able to do something with Mercury, like send some Western Australian farm­ ers up there with some super phosphate to grow tomatoes . . .

“ fit to print” is fit to read, let alone digest.

Lieutenant Calley, the right and proper scapegoat for the Vietnam war My Lai murders is loose and proudly wearing the uniform that protected him from the fate o f a Boston Strangler.

But, the good news; officers o f the US army — no doubt including many who ordered the throwing o f wounded Vietcong from airborne helicopters — are pissed off. Some even threaten to resign.

IC H ARD Nixon stuck up for Cal­ ley. Prisoners are not allowed to cast opinions, let alone votes. Perhaps that’s why Calley was let out. Maybe Calley is the only person on the globe who approves o f the president’s actions.

I saw a presidential popularity graph in a Time magazine. My bet that he’ll be in the unemployment queue by june 30, looks very safe.

OR THE delectation o f those un­ fortunate T V viewers who find themselves entrapped by the A B C ’s clever screenings o f olden David Frost shows, I here lift out, in totum, without compunction, a piece from London’s Private eye, by Grovel, the mag’s social columnist. . . “ While ‘ Gypsy’ Dave Frost seems reluctant to spill the beans over his jilting, Grovel has no such hesitation.

The facts are: the Gypsy’s erstwhile fiancee has been going out with the sinister Las Vegas gambler Del Coleman for two years. Gypsy had been wooing her for three months and finally secured her agreement to marry him tw o weeks ago while they were in London. On Wednesday, march 6, he put her on the Pakistan International flight to New York saying that he would take a later plane. By a curious coincidence, no sooner had Karen Graham settled into her first class seat than she was joined

by Del Coleman who had been tracking her movements around Europe with the Gypsy. “ When Frost arrived that evening in New York he called his ‘fiancee’ . She seemed somewhat distant, and soon blurted out that she could no longer marry him. A fter a 105 minute conver­ sation trying to explain matters to Frost, the telephone was grabbed from her and Coleman came on the line telling Frost: ‘I f you dont leave Karen alone, I ’ll bust your ass.’ “ As Mr Coleman is known to have

muscular friends with Italian ancestry and a passion for gambling, Frost was inclined to take the threat at face value, I and immediately desisted plighting his| troth."

OESNT anyone like imperialism these days?

Poor little Portugal, who pours 40 I percent o f its annual budget into fight­ ing liberation groups in its colonies in Angola, Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau ( may have shrugged when Sweden’s fi­ nance minister condemned the cruel | antics o f the Portuguese troops in A f ­ rica. However, when the minister con-1 tinued and added his government was sending 15 million kroner ($2,200,000) to the Mozambique freedom fighters, Frelomo, it must have been another | bitter bummer.

Ahh, even rightwingers are at it. I Earlier the Portuguese hero, general Antonio de Spinola — a monocled, swashbuckling nazi-trained oldtime friend o f Franco - came down on the | country’s colonial policy: “ Today’s con­ science,” he declared, “ does not accept j empires.”

ERE’S some good news for those people living in countries whose shores are lapped by the waters o f the Indian ocean who see the US’s attempts at buying Diego Garcia from the British for a “ Russian watching” naval base as a | “ national security risk” .

There’s a well ensconced and active I indigenous guerrilla force on the island . . . huge man eating crabs. Well hidden beneath rocks they collectively emerge | from their stations to ambush lonely human stragglers.

Rags to riches HE Hare Krishna people whatever their philosophical beliefs — are surviving not just on the gifts solicited on the streets o f major Australian cities, but on the profits from their very large In­ dian clothing ,wholesaling ven­ ture.

The label “ Spiritual Sky” gets stuck on clothes bought in India by roving Krishna businessmen.

They are brought in through the main distributors in Sydney, then sent out to “ firms” in Adelaide and Melbourne for distribution and sale to local retailers such as markets with separate independ­ ent stalls, and department stores such as Myers.

The Krishna business is not unlike others: the buyers go to India, order the number o f clothes required, then send them to Sydney. Prices paid in India for the gear are low — according to market owners they are very low — and wholesaling mark-ups are running into many times the orig­ inal amount paid.

ta ta h k a la u s a m p ra v rtte s a m m o h a y a s u ra -d v is a m b u d d h o n a m n d n ja n a -s u ta h k ik a te s u b h a v is y a ti

Yet, unlike other businesses, Krishna does not have high over­ heads. Initially, no customs duties are paid on any goods “ hand woven from natural fibres” im­ ported from India. This is part o f the Australian government’s pol­ icy related to the small industries o f countries classified "underde­ veloped” . Each country classified thus has certain products exempt from custom taxation. In India’s case, clothes which come under the category o f “ undergarments” are totally exempt from custom duty. “ Outergarments” such as mens suits and ladies jerseys may be subject to some duty, so you rarely see them in Australia.

Embroidery seems to be the criteria when customs men are classifying the clothes: “ Anyone who is bringing these clothes into the country know they must have embroidery or some other design

The temple bar MICKY GRAHAM

on them somewhere” , a customs officer told me.

And they do. The clothes then make their way through the Krishna salesmen to the retailers o f the country. Krishna people wholesale their imports to “ both large and small retailers, we have a mixture” .

As any good businessman knows, a large retailer guarantees profit on both sides and a large order is better than a small one.

This “ good business practice” was put to good use recently in Mel­ bourne: Ilene, the manager o f Granny’s Box Fleamarket in Swanston street, Melbourne, ordered 200 dresses from “ Krishna John” , her major supplier o f Indian clothes.

These, bearing the label "Spiritual Sky” (every wholesaler has his own label, sewn into the clothes in Australia), were to arrive soon after she had placed the order.

They didnt. Finally, after a month had passed Krishna John delivered the small order and charged Ilene $7.00 per dress. The goods were marked up to $9.50 and hung to await buyers who were scarce.

One day a customer came in, said she liked the dresses, but . . . “ to tell you the truth, they are selling them for $7.95 at Myers” .

Seems that Krishna John had supplied Myers with 10,000 o f the same dresses at $5.00 each! Only then did he supply the Flea­ market.

Another example o f Krishna’ s sound business expertise is the grandscale sale they held in february at Melbourne town hall. Eager to rid themselves o f the over­ abundant supply o f summer fash­ ions they had imported, they sold directly to the public. Tops which retailers had bought from Krishna for $3.25 and marked up to $5.50, were sold for $1.95 direct to the public. I I

Sweet smells of success HE largest incense manufac­ turer in the United States is making a pretty hefty profit these days — mainly because it doesnt *pay any o f its employees.

This is happening, the Wail street journal reports, because America’s largest incense maker is the Spiritual Sky Scented Prod­ ucts Company — owned by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness.

The Journal reports that the founder o f the religious society, guru A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, decided that the movement would need some in­ come. So 35 fulltime employees, including eight whose sole job it is to dip incense sticks and cones all day, churn out various scented products. After five years in busi­ ness, the company is now grossing $US6,000,000 a year and is the prime support o f the 50 or so Hare Krishna temples in m »\r f o r * CNorth America.

The company is large enough to use a computer to keep track o f inventories. Whenever the com­ puter is not busy calculating, it ^continuously prints out the Hare Krishna chant ,— , - The rag [_ i

OR THE past six months in Sydney a quiet battle has been raging between the sleek bejewelled citizens o f Wallaroy crescent, Double Bay, whose lives are measured in dollar bills, and some new arrivals to the million­ aire-infested deadend - the gaunt, ever-chanting Hare Krishna girls and boys.

The residents have displayed their usual charming generosity o f spirit by getting a petition togeth­ er within the first tw o weeks o f the move-in to get a move-out.

Health inspectors from Woollahra council have spent chilly nights crouching behind frangipani trees measuring the sound level o f the midnight chant, and peering re­ lentlessly inside garbage bins to note the degree o f composting greenery. They have also done a head count on the number o f people living inside “ Hare Hatch” , and observed the happy people coming and going from the house each sunday.

Late last year, the president o f the Temple, Depak, was summon­ ed to appear in court on a charge relating to the use o f the house as a “ boarding house” - defined as being a place where four or more unrelated people live together for profit or reward, a place o f public worship, an educational institu­ tion. He was given two months to comply with the order and his time ran out at the end o f february. Hare Krishna people arent exactly in the hotel trade; Depak and his people continued their worship. So last week, he was brought before the court again on a contempt action for failing to comply with the court order.

I was waiting outside the court­ room with Depak. His solicitor was having a word with the judge, working for time. “ We’re moving as soon as we buy a place o f our own anyway,” Depak told me. “ We’ve got an option on two houses at the moment and we’re waiting to exchange contracts.”

But the pressure was on. Final­ ly the judge adjourned the case and gave Depak an undertaking not to entice the public to the house, until the case was heard.

No Sunday meeting, no chanting.

F

GILLY COOTE

See you in court same time next week. “ We can’t stop people if they want to come and be with us,” said Depak, as we went down in the lift. “ I f Krishna wants us to go to prison, that’s okay.”

Last time he was in Pentridge, Melbourne, for a stretch he ripped Pentridge for a stretch he ripped up the sheets and screwed them

U

up into balls to use as prayer beads and went on a fast. The other people inside jail at the time were impressed.

A t last the court hearing before Mr justice Mahoney, who seems a wry sort o f bloke, and Depak — referred to in court as Clark — is sitting down the front among some learned pigtails. Various pieces o f evidence are produced a photo o f the temple sign — SRI SRI R AD H A K R S N A TEMPLE which hangs outside the house adorned with flowers, and one o f the glossy books. The prosecution is trying to prove that Hare Hatch is being used as a place o f public worship and as an educational institution, and there are a series o f statements from dutiful council workers. “ People commenced to leap high in the room,” wrote the health inspector. “ Prayers were said and incense was burning.”

Objections to the words prayer and temple were allowed, and the case crept ever onwards. The council workers, nervous and scrubbed, ernestly submitted to cross-examination.

All that had been established was that Hare Hatch had a small statue o f Krishna, an altar and that people turned up at the house every Sunday, and ate food in their hands . . . but it was enough.

A breach had been committed.

The judge ordered that in future meetings be restricted to specific

residents, and that no music be played in the house. No fine, no prison. A t least Depak won’t be shredding sheets.

Will freaks flood the libraries?

PAUL PERRY

F

REAKS dont read - accord­ ing to suburban librarians.

They dont do anything but read — according to the people from Mel­ bourne’s counterculture book­ shop. The logical conclusion is that the average library hasnt got anything freaks want to read.

The reason for this is not that librarians are essentially reaction­ ary but that, like everybody else, they have no way o f finding out about the counterculture; serious periodicals have ignored the de­ velopment o f youth culture, and the daily press covers only the commercially exploited aspects.

This state o f affairs won’t last if last Saturday’s seminar in Mel­ bourne on alternative literature is any indication. According to Ray Trott o f the Committee o f Young­ er Librarians, the aim was to let librarians know what alternative lifestyle/radical/counterculture lit­ erature is and where it's found. The first speaker, professor Ian Turner, defined the phenomenon as a two pronged attack on industrial so­

ciety, first through the affirma­ tion o f life through free expres­ sion and just plain fun and, sec­ ond, the denial that work itself is necessarily a good thing. As an academic Turner is committed to rationality; while understanding the rejection o f logical thought by some o f the counterculture (tarot cards, astrology and the whole transcendental bit), he pointed out that there was “ nothing logi­ cal about the waste and stupidity o f the modern self-destructive consumer society.”

A rave from the poet G eoff Eggleston o f Fitzrot gave the audi­ ence an example o f the personal factors at play in the alternative culture. The counterculture no longer exists; it’s been absorbed by the dominant culture. I dont have a total optimism for the world, we’ve got toys like video but there’s still a lot o f social friction. As Ken Kesey said, in our society paranoia is just a super sense o f reality.

Philip Fraser, a veteran o f the

Australian youth culture press ( Lots wife, Co-set, Revolution, High times and now Digger) feels that the central feature o f the alternative press is the rejection o f “ individual survival in favor o f universal survival” . The individual survival by any means is epitomis­ ed by Nixon and the C AN DO philosophy. The rejection o f this is based on a realisation that it is an unaffordable luxury. There must be a rationalisation o f sur­ vival on ecological grounds.

The approach with Digger, Fraser said, “ is that the people producing it had got right away from the marketing concept as­ pect. N ow the group just put in what they want; an unfortunate consequence is that they have no idea who the 8000 readers are, and there are almost no letters or phone calls from them, but, be­ cause the staff is outside the system, the paper has a high credibility rate both with the counterculture and with workers in the straight media.

Poor Toms Poetry Band and Bush Video gave some indication o f the cultural aspect o f counter­ culture, illustrating Turner’s idea that the concentration on the “ here and now” and use o f modern technology will lead to another renaissance.

The most entertaining - and instructive - speaker was Bob Gould, proprietor o f the Third World bookshops. Defining the function o f a library to be the satisfaction o f as large a number o f minorities as possible, he said there was no political censorship in Australia today. (The last case was the notorious seizure on grounds o f “ obscenity” o f the Vietnam Atrocity pamphlet some years ago.) The immediate prob­ lem was the reactionary nature o f local councils. “ The sex papers Screw and Ribald are selling 100,000 per week in NSW but you w on’t find them in many libraries." The question o f alterna­ tive literature for younger people and those who arent university

Good drugs ’n’ bad drugs

dropouts can be solved by Z A P comics.

Gould and the other book­ sellers present - Lee Harding from Space Age and Paul Smith from Whole Earth - agreed that some functions o f libraries are being taken over by the bookshops which were becoming social cen­ tres. If libraries paid more atten­ tion to their environment, then the kids would come back. Gould expressed the hope that once peo­ ple started smoking dope in li­ braries the staff will receive a “ second hand stone” and the pres­ ent bureaucratic structures would soften!

In the final analysis, the nature o f a library depends on the people using it. Instead o f just assuming that your suburban library isnt willing to get books on zen, whole food, natural medicine etc., ask ’em, and tell them who to ask. I f they havent heard o f a book, they can’t be expected to have it.

ANDREW FISHER OW that the big squeeze is on manufacturers to restrict the spread o f such health dam­ aging and addictive drugs as tobac­ co and analgesics, the counter ar­ guments produced by the industry have a familiar ring.

Last week the distribution by the federal government to states o f a voluntary code asking them to tighten up on selling and ad­ vertising drugs has caused drug company spokesmen to talk about censorship and unwarranted inter­ ference.

Daylights — anxious as usual to cash in on the misfortune o f others — has patented a series o f all purpose arguments drawn from the counterculture’s defence o f marijuana over the past 15 years.

No doubt it will come as a shock to the multinational drug pushing corporations to find themselves in the same boat as the despised hippies but that’s life. The times are changing and companies using our arguments will have to pay a royalty o f 10 percent to the Day­ lights fund for broken down and disillusioned radical journalists.

OPEN LETTER TO (FE D ERAL GOVERNM ENT, HEALTH

Apology to Ampol Petroleum “ In our issue o f february 19-25, 1974, we published an article en­ titled “ Bowser Bonanza” . Therein we incorrectly stated: None o f the Australian Com­ panies harvesting great profits in Australia are Australian owned, though one, Ampol, pretends to be. It is 51% own­ ed by Caltex - the Texas based oil empire. Companies hide within companies.

We wholly and unreservedly retract this statement and apol­ ogise to Ampol for our error. We have been advised by Ampol that 90.06% o f Am pol’s stock units are held by either Australian or New Zealand residents and neither Cal­ tex nor any other foreign com­ pany has any significant share­ holding in Ampol.”

EARL GATSBY

A U TH O R ITY, POLICE COMMIS­ SIONER etc. etc.)

We, the manufacturers o f APC powders, cigarettes, alcohol, tran­ quillisers, amphetamines, white sugar etc. wish to protest at the recent unwarranted and unsub­ stantiated attack on our whole­ some products.

1. APC powders, cigarettes etc. are as much a part o f the Austra­ lian way o f life as sunshine, beaches and persecuting aborig­ inals. To restrict in any way the free sale o f our products is a basic infringement o f this great coun­ try’s civil liberties as protected by the constitution and the rights o f the various reactionary state gov­ ernments. It is and always has been the inalienable right o f every man, woman and child to destroy him or herself with the drug o f his or her choice.

2. A ll medical evidence against APC powders, cigarettes etc. orig­ inates from researchers employed by (federal government, health authorities, etc.) or from bigoted consumers or from scientists with axes to grind. This is not democ­ racy. Democratic principles de­ mand that each side has a fair go and therefore no drug manufac­ tured by us should be regarded as harmful until that drug had been condemned by scientists em ploy­ ed by us.

3. Even i f it is true (and we dont admit it) that APC powders, cigarettes etc. are mildly addictive and can cause slight harm if abus­ ed, this in itself is no reason fo r a ban. There are many other drugs readily available that fall into the same category such as APC, cig­ arettes etc. and any harm which might result from their misuse has long been regarded as an accept­ able price to pay for the great good that our drugs do.

4. Anyway, if APC powders, cigarettes etc. were to be made unavailable vast numbers o f in­ nocent people would experience severe withdrawal symptoms, in­ cluding nausea, vomiting, heart failure etc. and may be forced to turn to such dreadful drugs as marijuana for comfort.

OCK was stabbed in the back in Adelaide last week when rock groups were banned from the Apollo stadium.

This sickening situation fo llow ­ ed complaints about boozers and swearers disturbing local residents.

The stadium is owned by the District and Metropolitan Ama­ teur Basketball Association. The association’s secretary (Mr F. Angove) said that rock concerts at the stadium caused a lot o f prob­ lems.

The stadium was the only feas­ ible place where a concert could be held. Other venues are either too small or would be exposed to the fury o f the winter.

This means the end o f overseas bands playing in “ Adders” and the end o f rock, virtually. Promot­ ers wouldnt bother bringing a band to Adelaide now, no money in it.

Meanwhile, the Adelaide Festi­ val o f Arts surges forward, raking in the money and the praise. No problems about getting “ decent” entertainment for the “ decent” folk.

Just because the B. B. King tour happened to coincide with the festival, we are told it caters for the “ young” .

SA just spent a mint on a new festival theatre complex but with no thought at all to a venue for rock bands. The new theatre only takes 2000, which is fine for the ballet and theatre companies, but where can the Floyd let o ff their sky rockets?

I f ticket prices at the Apollo had been slightly more reasonable then frustrated rockers wouldnt have had to congregate outside the stadium, they could freak-out inside.

But Angove also bitched about trouble on the inside. Chairs have been broken by enthusiastic crowds.

That’s a fairly feeble excuse, what does he expect anyway?

Apollo stadium has seen some amazing concerts over the years, ratshit though the acoustics be.

It’s goodbye to all that now, ring in the revolution! We can’t take this lying down.

What a pretty airport!

STEVEN PHILLIPS F captain Cook had arrived 200 years later than he did, leaving some other adventurous nature loving mug to do his dis­ covering for him, his thoughts would have been pretty much the same as all overseas travellers who are mustered daily through the Mascot air terminal.

For, until a recent sign o f enlightenment on the part o f the department o f civil aviation, inter­ state and overseas visitors were given as much esthetic considera­ tion as cattle being herded for branding.

As Mascot airport has rapidly grown over the years so has the noise soared to a deafening cres­ cendo and the general state o f pollution in the air has risen to unprecedented heights.

Several months ago, the depart­ ment o f civil aviation began what it considered a vast conservation program for Mascot. But alas, there is little left to conserve, as any inner Sydney dweller knows.

Designed to bring applause from easily pleased hardcore en­ vironmentalists, the program's spearhead was the planting o f more than 30,000 trees native to the Botany area in and around the airport and the establishing o f a nursery to maintain the “ natural” environment. Trees were “ donat­ ed” to neighboring Marrickville council to hide the yellowed Cooks river from view.

Howard Knox, senior airport in spector, is understandably proud o f the department's efforts and is eager to give the press guided tours o f his airport to prove the point.

A special area has been set aside for recycling o f industrial

I

waste (more like a hardfill garbage tip) which could be used as filling base for new roads and runways.

A fulltime horticulturist, Len Dodds, has been employed with a staff o f ten to nurture and care for the concrete. “ These are things o f which the public simply is not aware,” said Knox.

In what could possibly be the biggest understatement made in the recent string o f various airport controversies, Howard Knox said Mascot airport had always been “ an eyesore to visitors and resi­ dents” .

But while the department o f civil aviation is busy prettying the airport, many real problems that is problems with solutions and not mere irritating facts o f life — go without consideration.

For example, a section o f General Homes Drive which underpasses the “ new” extension runway is below sea level and the seeping waters are quickly finding their way into the tunnel.

A permanent breakwater at the end o f the runway looks as if it couldnt hold back a low tide at Bondi beach and a number o f drunken drivers have terrorised airport staff by using the runways as speedways.

Has there been a change o f heart since the program was initiated? “ The airport staff have already expressed their apprecia­ tion and have asked for seating facilities to be placed outside so they can eat their lunch in the open. Overseas visitors have been taking photographs and the whole morale has been boosted." Which should please Mother Nature’s dis­ ciples no end.

Hawke, Halfpenny and Mundey have been singled out by capital­ ists and "made famous” . Since Hawke’s ability to deceive has waned, Mundey has been singled out fo r special promotion, they say.

The WPAC state that Mundey functions as a diversion to the overthrow o f capitalism, and to support their claims offer these amazing “ facts” that Mundey has: • Appeared on T V about four times a week, • Featured in the press almost every day, • Been handsomely paid for his services, • Become a member o f the government’s City Commission Advisory Committee, • Received large honorariums for these positions.

Reports around are that no one is taking the WPAC too seriously.

Next day she was picked up by the St Kilda police and fined $200 with no time to pay. “ You won’t be seeing her around for a while” , shrugged Irene, who was also at the meeting. She says the girls fines have increased up to 150 percent since the Robe street incident.

"Since Robe street everyone’s been jumping on everyone else. I dont know who said it about the police being on our side, but they said a very dumb thing.”

Irene says she has been on television twice to deny allega­ tions o f police backing and rectify the situation. Whether or not the police A R E on their side, the girls realise they screwed things up properly by mouthing o ff at the meeting, and have been playing down their case since.

But their main argument sticks: they are here to stay and the public and the law might as well accept it and forge a mutually acceptable solution. If the police and local residents succeeded in kicking them out o f Robe street, the girls reasoned.

Liberating the grub JOH N A L F O R D the Pantry. He put all the food into measured packages, started negotiations to enter a super­ market group buying scheme (as in Kelloggs muesli, etc) and started selling a few moneymaking lines like Sunicrust bread (where the wholemeal is a quarter ton o f white flour to one sack o f mallee meal).

Although the moves are sup­ posed to make the shop break even, whole earthers argue that the CO’s salary itself outweighs any cost reductions he is likely to make.

When the manager o f the shop — an ecologically aware lady named Jap Hansen - went to the warden to point out that the CO's money logic just didnt fit in with whole earth notions, Sweeney backed his man against Jan, who then had no choice but to resign.

Hence the protest.

The liberation o f the Pantry paid off, however, since the commercial officer announced he had resigned as a result o f all the criticism.

A S T thursday the good food was set free at Monash’s so called whole earth shop, the Pantry.

A group o f eco-freaks entered the shop, sporting gas-masks to show what they thought o f its commercialised atmosphere, and carefully turned the food therein out o f its cellophane wrappers and back into wicker baskets.

Posters on the windows and a spruiker on a soapbox outside told student passersby why they were doing it: The Pantry is being subjugated. Very soon it will be in a grocery cartel and set up like a supermarket. . .

It all started when the Monash university union board was prevailed upon last december by its warden, Graeme Sweeney, to employ a commercial officer, whose job would be to increase the efficiency o f all the union’s shops.

The newly employed CO, from “ a background in private enter­ prise” , lost no time in applying the latest cost-cutting methods to

both they and the gutter crawlers would only become someone else’ s problem a few streets down.

They want legalised brothels in restricted areas o f the city. On the streets they say they can be picked up for consorting even if they are going straight. Fines are imposed at the discretion o f the magistrate and can range from $10 to $200 for the same offences and number of convictions, depending on whether or not he is sympathetic to working girls.

Vagrancy charges are laid on known pros even if they are carrying hundreds o f dollars.

Some o f the police are OK, but others are “ real shits” and give them a hard time, they say. “ We could have legalised brothels like in Kalgoorlie,” says Irene. “ It would calm a lot o f trouble on both sides and still give the girls a living and a better go. “ We stood up for our rights in Robe street, and w e’d do it again if they called a meeting to discuss us, but what can a handful o f girls do against a 100 locals anyway?

We understand that people dont like all that disturbance in their streets, but prostitution will never be stamped out, so they might as well adopt a sensible approach it which keeps both sides happy.” “ The police tried to clean St Kilda up about ten years ago and forced many o f the girls out, but gradually they came back,” says Irene. “ We dont have any competition, this is the scene.”

Many o f the St Kilda girls have knife scars; attempted bashings and stranglings are an accepted occupational hazard from which they say they get very little police protection. “ People are wrong to look down on us,” she said. “ We arent hurting anyone, and if we do things they dont like, we’ re not doing it under their eyes. “ A lot o f women are hypo­ crites to look down on us. A t least we’re honest about what we do, it's a living. Many o f them were worse whores than us before they got married and put it all right.

You know what I reckon? Most o f them arent getting enough sex and they’re jealous .. . I ’ll bet half o f them objecting to those guys in cars were really wishing they were giving THEM a bit up the back lane.” p i

HE Turkish government has decided to lift the ban im­ posed on opium cultivation. The ban was originally imposed fo l­ lowing American pressure — 70 motions were tabled in the US congress to cut military and eco­ nomic aid to Turkey unless the Turks cooperated. American nar­ cotic agents estimated that 80 percent o f heroin illegally entering the States came from Turkey.

The Turkish minister for agri­ culture, Korkut Ozal, said that “ the government is about to end problems brought about by the opium ban” .

The “ problems brought about” are that 100,000 former poppy farmers in seven Anatolian prov­ inces are unable to make a living, despite the fact that the Ameri­ cans pumped $35.7 million into Turkey for compensation to Turk­ ish farmers and for regional de­ velopment.

The ban will be lifted in two stages - first poppy cultivation will be reintroduced to state-own­ ed farms. Later the ban will be removed in the remoter regions where farms are privately owned.

Most Turkish farmers are believed to have kept secret stores o f pop­ py seeds so production will be able to be resumed almost immed­ iately.

JAN McGUINNESS U D D ENLY Melbourne police are blitzing St Kilda’s streetwalkers. People say this is the result o f a residents meeting held last fortnight.

The people o f Robe street got together to complain about what they called “ the gutter crawlers” - men who drive very slowly, very close to the kerb, looking for a piece o f action. Their eagerness causes them to confuse residents with prostitutes. The local pros got wind o f the meeting and turned up to put their case to the residents. “ Listen darlin’, w e’re going to fight you as hard as you’re fighting us,” a redhead told presiding chairman Brian Dixon, local member and state minister for sport and recreation. “ We have the vice-squad behind us,” she said. “ The St Kilda police are for us too,” chirped in another pro.

The girls told the residents they provide a service; they’re the flak catchers for sexual perverts and maniacs. " I f it wasnt for us your kids would have been molested by some pervert years ago,” said the redhead.

Looking into the sinkings BILL MADIGAN

HE Seamens Union in Mel­ bourne will hold an inde­ pendent investigation into the cause o f the recent sinking o f the coastal freighter Straitsman in the Yarra river.

Mainly seamen are understood to be worried about the safety o f the Tasmanian transport commis­ sion ships that operate the inter island service between Tasmania and the mainland.

Union secretary Bert Nolan said last week: “ A t this stage we are looking at the accident situ­ ation as a coincidence, but we will probe into all possible causes.”

One man drowned and another is missing, believed dead, as a result o f the Straitsman sinking.

In October the commission ship Blythe Star sank taking the lives o f three men and later in that month the Joseph Banks, also run by the commission, crashed on to rocks on the New South Wales coast.

Experts looking at the Straits­ man sinking are reported to be still puzzled over why the ship lurched to one side. The inquiry ordered by federal transport minister Charlie Jones will try to provide the answers.

The results could be embarras­ sing for the Tasmanian govern­ ment, and in particular state trans­ port minister Neil Batt, who is also attorney-general.

The cure that kills e t h a d o n e , the “ miracle” cure synthetic drug admin­ istered to addicts in an attempt to treat and wean them has proven to be a “ killer drug” .

A New York chief medical examiner, Dr Dominick Di Malo released a report last week which revealed that in the city o f New York 50 people “ definitely” died from methadone between january-june, 1973. During the same period 49 people died from heroin.

Overall drug deaths have de­ clined in the US. Figures for the first half o f 1973 show that there were 329 narcotic deaths, a drop o f one hundred on figures for the latter part o f ’72. O f the 329 dead, 186 bodies contained heroin and 143 methadone. Methadone is still administered in Australian health institutions to addicts, often against their wish.

Court jesters get their Rocks off W hen residents defend them selves in court funny things happen. WENDY BACON tells AST October, in Sydney, very early one morning, 71 residents from the inner city and several builders laborers occupied a site in the Rocks where scabs were attempting to demolish a row o f garages.

The scabs were employed by the demolisher, Kennedy, on con­ tract to Silvertons Ltd who had leased the site from Sydney Cove Redevelopment Authority. Before long, we were rounded up and carted away to spend the day in the cells so that the heavily guard­ ed scabs could continue their work. Despite even bigger demon­ strations during the following days, the scabs got the garages down.

The company then planned to continue its assault on the union green ban by replacing the garages with expensive home units quite outside the range o f all but the wealthy. Today, more than five months later, the site is a park (albeit a car park rather than the green park predicted by Jack Mundey), showing what the resi­ dents and unions already knew to be true: demolition is one thing, construction another.

On monday, march 25, the 71 defendants, a defence lawyer, police prosecutor, and magistrate Berman piled into Central Court No. 6. Around the doors crowded the 29 prosecution witnesses, mostly junior police constables.

Also there was Bob Pringle who, along with a rank and file builders laborer, had been arrested on the site on the previous day.

A ll defendants have been charged under section 50 o f the Summary Offences A ct for being in a building (or on land used in connection with a structure or building) with no reasonable cause for so doing. Elvis Kippman, who descended from his tree ten hours after the other demonstrators had been grabbed, and Keith Mullins, who climbed the chimney in Vic­ toria street, are also facing addi­ tional Rocks charges landed on them on the day o f their arrest in Victoria street - resisting arrest, assault o f a police officer in the course o f his duty, vicious damage to police uniforms.

Bob Pringle's case was heard first. The prosecution case was that Bob Pringle had entered the site by kicking in the door and refused to leave when asked by the police and Kennedy the de­ molisher. Defended by Peter Hiddern, Bob’s “ official” defence was that he had gone to the site to investigate breaches o f the award as his delegate’s pass authorised by the industrial registrar entitled him to do. (Kennedy himself ad­ mitted that in many ways the site did not meet the requirement o f the award passed by the state arbitration court.) However, dur­ ing the prosecutor’s cross examin­ ation this exchange occurred: Pros: “ Did you go to the site at 8.20 on October 18?”

Pringle: “ Yes I went to the premises in Playfair street at 8.20 on October 18 and my purpose o f

The court was as we suspected. Whether or not crowded and it was difficult to we had a reasonable cause for hear. Those who were defending being there never entered into it themselves asked for a table near

inside the building.

From McGill onwards the police took very few tricks. Under cross examination from Peter Hid­ dern there were many different accounts o f the layout o f the buildings, what was said by the police and Tanti to the demon­ strators, and who spoke when. as far as the police were concern­ ed. It emerged during the week that most o f the police including McGill, the cop in charge, actually believed that we were charged “ with being in a building without the permission o f the owner” .

McGill, the next witness, was questioned further on that confer­ ence. He said that seven people had attended including Waring and Tanti from the company, himself and colonel McGee o f SCRA. He couldnt remember who else had been there; people had been walking in and out. Was anyone from the justice depart­ ment there? No. A fter lunch Joe Owens again took up the questioning which led the prosecutor to object to the continual references to “ the con­ ference” .

Joe: “ What specific decisions were made?”

McGill: “ It’s none o f your business.”

Berman said that he wouldnt press the superintendent to answer. I said that I thought witnesses were meant to answer questions and this seemed like special treatment for the police.

So Berman asked him what was his basis for refusing to answer the question.

McGill: “ It’s nothing to do with these people.”

The prosecutor added that in the public interest it was right that top decisions should not be subject to evidence in court (voices in the court were heard to mention the word Watergate). A ll that McGill would divulge about the conference was that it was decided that Silvertons should be present to ask any occupants o f the site to leave.

A t this point, Peter Hiddern rose and said he had been inform­ ed that a man dressed in plain­ clothes had been taking notes dur­ ing this period and had now left the court and spoke to several policemen. The prosecutor dis­ claimed any knowledge o f this.

Berman, looking quite shocked said that this was a serious matter, and ordered the police to make an investigation.

Keith and Elvis have been charged with pouring oil on the policemens uniforms. McGill said he saw a man on the ridge o f one o f the remaining buildings pour the oil. He said that the figure was unclear but was the same one who later ran along the roof and into the tree. Keith asked him how he knew it was the same man. McGill said he just knew and when press­ ed admitted “ the unclear man who threw the oil was the same unclear man who ran along the ro o f” . Later police witnesses said that the oil was thrown from

Martin Mowbrae asked his al­ leged arresting officer, Frane, if he could recognise himself in a press picture o f Martin’s arrest. “ That could be me,” he said. Why? “ Well, he’s a policeman . .. it’s someone who’s a policeman who could be me. It is me, because I was there and I arrested you; it must be me.”

Russ Herman, a builders labor­ er, asked Frane what was his attitude to scabs? Frane didnt seem to understand, so Herman asked: “ Would you object if a civilian took over the traffic.” “ I object," called the prosecutor, leaping to his feet.

Constable Batrum was sure he had arrested Con on the first partly demolished section. Would he be surprised if Con put to him that he had been arrested up a tree?

Bartrum: “ As far as I am aware you were not,” Con accused him o f perjury, and Bartrum decided he was not so sure. “ I could be mistaken, anyone would have trouble catching anything, no one was taking any notice.”

That just about summed it up.

The point of the exercise had clearly been to get us o ff the site.

There had been a prior decision that we could be charged under section 50.

On Wednesday morning, the prosecutor announced that the police investigation was complet­ ed and that although the police officer concerned apologised to Berman, no notes taken were con­ nected with the case. He had before him a manila envelope with shorthand notes on it.

Later in the week, the police solved their indentification prob­ lems by checking with the police photos taken at Central, despite our protests, on the day o f our arrest. Some remarkable memory feats were performed, including one by a constable who described the man he arrested as six foot one, light brown hair, blue eyes and aged 28.

On thursday afternoon, magis­ trate Berman asked constable Ter­ racotta why, if, as he said he arrested Brett at 7.50 am, the charge sheet showed he had been arrested at 8.35 am. Terracotta couldnt explain it except to keep saying, “ it was about that time” .

The prosecutor, who appeared to have given up by this time, pointed out to him later that he should have said that he couldnt explain it and left it at that. As sergeant Boyle said later, “ At nine o ’clock in the morning at Central no one knows what is going on.”

With about 12 more police wit­ nesses to appear, the case was ad­ journed on friday until may. ,— , -

Information about dope con­ victions is extremely difficult to gather and collate, so consequently no one, including McRoach, has ny idea c f just how many people have been busted and what their circumstances are. McRoach, as promised last week, has a copy o f the 1972 Victoria Police statistical review o f crime, the most recent figures available for Victoria.

This review only lists drug o f­ fences under these categories — Drugs (Addicts), (Pedlars), (Mis­ T ’S dismal, grey day, a cellaneous). In 1971 there were chill wind blows, the rain 146 addicts reported, 43 pedlars, spits down and McRoach is at his and 312 miscellaneous.

Addicts rose by 221 to right now, those smokers who are 367, pedlars rose by. 69 to 112 desperately trying to hassle up the and miscellaneous rose by 182 to bread to pay the steep fines and 494.

In 1971 this figure for their big day in court. dropped to approximately 32 per­ Not enough smokers consider their counterparts — busts are cent but rose to around 38 per­ -regarded as “ part o f our way o f cent in 1972.

Few people are prepared to able as yet, but lawyers say that do anything constructive to fight indications are that there’s been a current dope problems. sharp increase in dope offences A correspondent to John Hepover the past few months. worth’s Outsight column ( Nation McRoach has been perturbed review) summed up the general by the number o f letters he has feeling quite well this week when received lately which recount he wrote: “ Yes you buy this paper (N R ) to make others think police brutality and/or planting o f information.

Tom was released but is now back in jail awaiting deportation for what appears to be a trumped up charge o f pushing hard drugs. To quote the correspondent once more: “ No trial, just a story about being a misfit in a country fit for terrerists (sic).”

A lawyer informed McRoach this week that he considered Aus­ tralian dope convictions repressive because o f their arbitrary nature.

That is, one 18 year old smoker can get a 12 month probation in one court while in another the same smoker could get $500 with no time to pay - this would probably result in a tw o month jail sentence. There's a working class bias to dope convictions too, buvffiaPTln line with most other I \ injustices in Australia X. J today.

o f young smokers.

The Australian Union o f Stu­ dents have initiated a highly pro­ fessional dope campaign; one o f their aims is a compilation o f info on misuse o f police power. If “ prima facie” cases are established they will provide support for prosecution o f individuals. Adel­ aide activists are instituting a cam­ paign to “ expose the violence and ruthless brutality o f the drug squad” . They have contacted the premier and his secretary and have been told that if there is enough evidence placed before them there will be a public inquiry into the activities o f the squad.

McRoach wishes them all the best o f luck and is collecting a very L A R G E file on police bash­ ings to forward to them. In the meantime, if you get busted, take this advice from a Melbourne dope lawyer and NE VER give a statement until you’ve acquired legal aid. Apparently most dope convictions result from the smok­ ers own incriminating statements.

I f you get busted DONT A D ­ M IT TO A N Y TH IN G . Keep cool until you can contact a lawyer.

However, if you’re being smashed around the head or looking down the barrel o f a police pistol, you might have to admit guilt - de­ pends on what your personality can handle in the area o f heavi­ ness.

Every smoker should be aware o f a good lawyer in his area. Dont feel this is being paranoid, it’s a “ just in case” that could save you a lot o f trouble. I f you dont know any lawyers, keep reading Mc­ Roach who is attempting to put together a nationwide listing o f good dope lawyers.

Meanwhile puff on, support your local activists and remember the words o f Tom Coyle: “ Y e only shout when it hap­ pens to yourself.”

Dope fink of the week HIS week McRoach wings the award up to the Sunny State where grown “ men” , re­ cruited to the drug squad, spend their days cruising around heavying 18 year old youths. The most infamous o f these Qld. narcs is one detective sergeant K. Dorries, and it is to him in particular that McRoach presents the award.

Here’s a report, signed by “ Prison­ ers o f the republic o f Queensland — guilty o f being under twenty one years o f age.” “ The pros and cons o f drug use are too involved to go into in this letter but I sincerely hope some­ one can look into the arrests and subsequent conviction o f some o f the young people up here. “ The day after the Australia day floods in Qld., eight carloads o f drug squad detectives des­ cended on the sunshine coast like a gang o f mafia standover men.

More than a dozen people were busted and money was taken from searched flats and houses. Kids were abused and assaulted and some even had guns held against their heads. “ Those who demanded their rights were told, quote, ‘ shut up, you have no fucking rights’ . “ Most o f the busts up here are plants — at an estimate, I ’d say 80 percent o f the busts here are planted. “ During questioning, detective sergeant Dorries becomes so upset that he often has to go outside and compose himself. One fellow was told that if he did not plead guilty and take the $1000 fine, his wife would be busted and the child welfare department would take custody o f their child. Fines for the possession o f grass vary up to $1000. A ll we can do is pay up and shut up because any trouble simply means that we get busted again.

"T h e strange thing is that none o f the rich kids get busted. Also, doesnt it seem most unusual that while Queensland was suffering from its worst floods ever, while people were drowning and families losing all their posses­ sions, the police force could spare the time o f 20 detectives to go witch hunting all over the north coast?” * * *

T

e lb o u r n e Truth have tipped that the Country party pot report, recently men­ tioned b y McRoach, “ comes out strongly against any easing o f the laws banning use o f the drug” and recommends “ that the law should be strictly enforced” . However, the report apparently does not “ recommend substantial increase in the levels o f existing penalties” .

The report will be released sometime within the next month McRoach is waiting.

But all is not lost asthmatics: McRoach suggests you forget betamethasone and consider marijuana. Researchers at the Bos­ ton school o f medicine claim to have established that dope relieves asthma - dope dilates the bron­ chial vessels and air resistance decreases.

Bang they’re busted

Seed busts UST so you know the score, McRoach has randomly selected examples o f recent seed busts: QLD: Nambour — Michael Alan Harvey, 20, possessing one seed in trouser pocket and others in cup­ board — $500 or two months jail.

No time to pay.

QLD: Mt Tambourine - Garry Paul Lee, 19, possessing one can­ nabis seed in shoulder bag - $300 or six weeks jail. No time to pay.

WA: Subiaco - Malcolm Stuart, 20, possessing 200 seeds in match­ box in shirt pocket — $350.

than perverse moderation, the message is "B u y Nothing". This way you can become uninvolved with the mass consumption race o f '74. Stop buying, at least for this week and scqre a direct hit at the businessman's pocket.

Dont help the business com­ munity this week. Remember that the businessman is one who lives better o ff our money than we do o ff his. Buy a magazine and you help a businessman buy his lunch.

Behind nearly all information sources lies a moneymaker. Even non profit publications depend on ink suppliers, paper makers and printers.

T o continue with this diver­ sion, the businessman is, as the Festival o f Light would say, a menace. To know the enemy you must first identify him. He is readily spotted at places like air­ ports; after a recent visit I think they might even live at airports. I spent a couple o f hours at Mascot International the other day — quite frightening really. There they are, lounge lizarding around and, hell, the cast is truly interna­ tional, even the "developing" countries boast o f them.

You can spot them by their all purpose ceremonial dress, the plastic or organic suit and tie combo, matched with the attache case and leather overnight bag.

Rarely does one see the "Think and Grow Rich" man with a Sony plastic bag full o f duty frees. No, he's too cool for that and besides, after his seventh trip to Honkers or 'Frisco since Christmas, what is he going to buy? T o a large extent he leaves the trinket buying to the tourist. Trannie purchases are an integral part o f the travel package prepared for the tourist by the business caste.

So dont buy anything this week. Dont even read the bill­ boards. Spend the week at the airport instead; thrill to the busi­ nessmens attempts to communi­ cate with the look-a-like castes, the international bureaucrats, the UNESCOS etc. But more on them

plants to dense populations (covering as much as eight hec­ tares) were scattered over about 3000 hectares extending for 64 kilometres along the flood plain o f the Hunter River.

"T h e department o f agriculture immediately began an attempt to eradicate the plant. A major search was undertaken in mid­ summer each year, followed by at least one autumn search to locate plants previously missed and late seedlings. Individual plants were pulled by hand while larger areas were treated with a herbicide mix­ ture. “ By 1972, the systematic eradication campaign had resulted in a reduction o f the growth o f cannabis to the occurrence o f only a few seedling plants annually. Success was achieved by careful documentation o f the infestation and immediate des­ truction o f established plants, followed by at least two inspec­ tions and re-treatments in each season.”

“If any wom an goes into office like this, in any isolated position, she’s going to need a support g ro u p -th a t’s one of the functions of the womens movem ent”

Liz Reid: smiling through the putdowns IZ REID’S initial contact with the Australian press was an unpleasant skirmish over her broken marriage and her radical views on homosexuality and dope. It was a disastrous start, almost exactly a year ago, to the historic appointment o f the first female adviser to an Australian prime minister on womens affairs. She has been wary o f the media ever since. “ The press made no attempt to find out what my relationship was with my daughter. They just made great political capital out o f the fact that I was separated and my daughter lived with her father and not myself. They assumed from these meagre facts what sort o f a mother I was.”

One effect o f this tough initiation to instant stardom was that she immediately became aware o f the necessity for compromise and caution in day to day politics. When she left the Australian National University, where she was a philosophy tutor, for Whitlam's office, only a mile or two across the lake, it must have been like Alice in Wonderland’s travels, from one unreal scene to another.

A t the university she had been an active member o f womens liberation, the Womens Electoral Lobby and gay liberation. She was widely respected for her support o f Pat Eatock, who stood against Kep Enderby in 1972 on a black, and womens rights, platform. A t that time, Liz says, “ I was almost an anarchic revolutionary in my attitudes, in my refusal to join existing political parties or accept existing political ideologies, in the commitment to complete separatism [o f men and women] or to a revolutionary stance in the sense o f the womens movement.”

She changed her ideas early in 1973 after the Mt Beauty womens conference where reform and revolution were major topics o f discussion. “ Looking around at the other women, asking myself why the womens move­ ment wasnt spreading, why it wasnt going out into the suburbs, into the factories, I had a growing realisation o f how lucky I was to be able to take this stand and live the sort o f life it entailed. “ Certain changes must occur before we can even get into a potentially revolutionary situation, so you’ re going to have to go in for reforms. That’s the reason I decided to apply for this job. I’d decided then that certain reforms were absolutely necessary.”

Once in the job she discovered that logical argument was not enough to convince people o f the justice o f the womens cause. She had to smile sweetly, put on stockings, and flowery dresses and pretend she didnt notice the continual

L

putdowns by male bureaucrats and Canberra heavies.

The most devastating outcome o f taking the $10,000 a year (plus overtime and expenses) job has been her eventual isolation from the womens movement.

Recently the Canberra Womens Electoral Lobby complained that she was so busy and overloaded with work that she had no time to keep in touch with womens groups. She denies this. The fault lies with the movement, she claims, as much as with her. They have failed to work out their relationship with her job and have not tried to keep in close working contact with her. “ I dont have time to keep close contacts. It is a luxury. A few individuals have understood that it’s going to be hard to keep in touch with me and both sides are going to have to make an effort. I can’t say to people in the office or to the prime minister, look dont bother me, I have to see somebody.”

She has tried to parcel out some o f the workload to womens groups but so far it hasnt worked out well. Her efforts in tackling the job are acknowledged in Canberra where she is shown as someone who avoids the booze and party scene.

She doesnt mix much with other ministerial staff and when she has any spare time she sees Kathryn, her four year old daughter.

the impending Cronulla and Souths game and arrangements for Gough’s day.

President Nyerere is here for lunch. “ It’s a bucks show,” says Norm. “ Havent seen any o f the wives around.” I fantasise about trying to crash the lunch.

Gough returns, jacketless, from the caucus meeting at 10.45 am. He really must have them under his thumb. Then comes the oh so familiar realisation that all the women seen t?day in the corridors o f power have been stenos and messenger girls!

A t 11.30 am when I am feeling annoyed, I get the word. I make it into the o ffice but last only 20 minutes.

Apologising profusely Liz says there’s no time now, how about tomorrow? We negotiate and agree on that afternoon if possible. “ I’d be glad I didnt get this job, if I were you” she confesses grimacing. “ It’s frustrating and impossible.” Her office has a definite female air — a rose in a vase on her desk and the bookshelves looking more like an academic’ s, laden with books on women from every angle — plus the odd philosophy and political tracts.

HE APPO IN TM E N T was for 10 am.

Louise Lake, her secretary, comes out from the inner sanctum o f the prime minister’ s office smiling. Liz is seeing “ himself” at 9.50 am. She’ll see me after that. I smile back nervously, determined not to have premonitions o f disaster too early, and instead make small talk with Norm, the office attendant. He offers a cup o f coffee and the commonwealth cop’s morning paper, both o f which I gratefully accept.

A t 10 am Louise reappears looking slightly worried. Liz now will be free at 11 am. It is obvious from all the staff rushing in through the magic door that an urgent staff meeting has been called. “ Dont worry,” I reassure her, " I can wait till lunch time.”

The weekly parliamentary Labor caucus meeting is at 10.30 am. She’ll have to finish with Gough by then. I pretend to be a fly on the wall while Norm and the commonwealth cop perfunctorily discuss

OUR hours later . . .

D A Y L IG H T S : The question o f political compromise seems to be a really important one. On the one hand, womens movement people could say your jo b was a token one and you are a token woman and cut you off. On the other hand it could be argued that even though you might be seen as a token woman, you are doing some things thatare going to benefit somewomen and therefore you should be supported.

LR: When I was in Vancouver I met a woman who had been elected to parliament from the womens liberation movement. I was stunned to see that the women in the movement had turned against her. They complained they didnt have the same access to her they had before she became an MP and that she was using what you might call “ compromised means” to achieve the ends. Whereas as purists from outside they could just say things like “ this ought to be done” and not see the need for compromise now and again to achieve things.

F

I f any woman goes into office like this, in any isolated position, she’s going to need a support group — that’ s one o f the functions o f the womens movement.

If they want to effect change, then they

can’t just thrust one or two people into these positions and then leave them.

There must be this tremendous continual support.

D A Y L IG H T S : What compromises have you had to make because o f the job?

LR: I ’ve had to buy a whole new wardrobe o f clothes. I’ve had to learn to speak softly every now and again. I ’ve had to smile even when I'm constantly being put down.

D A Y L IG H T S : What effect do the long working hours have on you?

LR: You become isolated from womens groups that should be giving you support, emotional and intellectual. You become isolated from your family. Relationships become almost a luxury, except you need them for support. I suppose I ’ve just put absolute priority on retaining my relationship with my daughter.

D A Y L IG H T S : What are some o f your basic personal feelings about sexism?

LR: I think that it’s so all-pervasive in society, in men and women and in all o f our institutions that no reform is ever going to be beneficial in challenging it in the long term.

We can learn from history. Women have never really benefited from any o f the political revolutions in the past.

D A Y L IG H T S : Isnt that because their major emphasis has been class struggles as opposed to sex struggles?

LR : I dont think that any revolution based on a class analysis is in itself going to help women. I think the model is going to be something like the industrial revolution or the copernican revolution.

It’s something that’s slow and all-per­ vasive, not quick and glorious and dramatic. So it’ s going to be much harder work and much less rewards and much less o f that form o f activity that becomes an end in itself, like demonstrating or carrying guns or whatever.

My feeling is that the majority o f women at present do not have the luxury to be revolutionaries, that they’re too deeply trapped in a form o f living that gives them no independence, no self confidence, no physical strength and no financial independence.

D A Y L IG H T S : What about the argument that by setting up day care centres, going fo r equal pay and educational oppor­ tunities, we are opting fo r band-aid reformism which will take the heat out o f mass demands fo r revolutionary change?

LR: That’s the theory which says you shouldnt go for any reforms because you achieve a slightly better society and people are less likely to be revolutionary.

Continued page 10

TH E L IV IN G D A Y L IG H T S

Liz Reid speaks out I happen to think that’s a bit crude and extraordinarily naive.

But we have to be very, very careful. A lot o f the reforms that are coming up will just effectively bolster the existing political and social situation. They wont better womens position or society in the long run.

D A Y L IG H T S : What about men? Where do they fit into this?

L R : My feeling is that men are very often dehumanised in our society by the way they’re brought up - so that the positive attributes that women have, like warmth and tenderness and thought­ fulness and perceptiveness, are knocked out o f them. Then on top o f that, they are forced in the breadwinner role to go in for a lifestyle that is often destructive o f the individual. So they’re doubly harmed b y society.

Women will never ever be able to bring about changes in men — men have to bring about these changes, then they will be able to take part in our utopia.

D A Y L IG H T S : Is Whitlam easy to work for?

LR : Yes. He’s certainly been the best person I ’ve worked for in a long time.

The staff in this office manage to retain their dignity and individuality although we are essentially in a master-slave relationship.

D A Y L IG H T S : D o you feel optimistic about changes fo r women?

LR : Yes. In the next three to four years, let’s hope we have the beginnings o f a highly imaginative, complex and integ­ rated scheme o f care for young people from the moment o f birth right through their pre school years and through their school years. I ’d certainly be genuinely disappointed if there's no major advance in this area.

D A Y L IG H T S : What are your own personal priorities?

LR: Child care, adequate training and retraining opportunities for women and a re-look at the education o f girls.

D A Y L IG H T S : Your recent overseas trip — what value was it to you?

LR: I ’ve come back with a greater understanding o f the extent o f some problems. For example, if we get rid o f sex role stereotyping in school textbooks, will it mean girls are less disadvantaged in our education system? I think we could produce a perfect set o f resource materials but w e’d be nowhere near attacking the real problem. I ’ve come back with some new ideas, too.

D A Y L IG H T S : Can you give us a few examples?

LR : One o f the things I suggested very soon after taking up this job was that the government should use its spending power to implement its policies in various fields. I’ve looked at how this has worked overseas especially in the United States.

It’s an interesting way o f getting change in the private sector. It says that unless you show a willingness to change and show that you are prepared to introduce certain minimum conditions in your factory you won’ t be eligible for federal contracts.

I am really worried about the increasing incidence o f restlessness, aimlessness, depression, moroseness, dissatisfaction, alcoholism, drug taking, suicides, psychotic and neurotic behavior in women - mainly in the suburbs. The social cost, the cost in human terms, is appalling, but it hasnt so far been measured in financial terms. So nothing’s been done about it.

D A Y L IG H T S : Wouldnt the answer be to give women some determination o f their Own lives, some form o f self management and econom ic independence and so on?

LR: That’s just part o f it.

D A Y L IG H T S : You dont think it ’s simply a function o f being female in our society.

LR: That’s part o f what causes it but not all o f it. A lot can be alleviated by looking more carefully at the sort o f services we provide, the sort of environment in terms o f streets, gutters, trees or lack thereof, and houses, the way we plan. We do make the assumption that everybody in Australia is going to settle down in a heterosexually married state with three young kids because that’s all we build for. | j Page .0 -

A barge of dope,Marx & pederasty From DAVID ALTHEER 1 Dusan Makavejev, famed for his outrageous sex satire o f social­ ism, WR: mysteries o f the organ­ ism, has popped up in Amsterdam on the final shooting o f another film that seems to give Marx a mauling.

WR won a prize at Cannes and was a hit at other film festivals, including Melbourne’s in 1972.

But, with a gradual freezing of official liberalism in his native Yugoslavia, which produced the movie, it became less and less liked, not so much for its oral-sex sequences, but for its Stalinist send-ups. Last year, the League o f Yugoslav Communists cancelled Makavejev’ s membership and he was invited to leave the country.

Since then he has been bum­ ming around film festivals, until winning Canadian-French backing for his new venture, to be called Sweet movie.

The basic plot, so far as its oft-improvising director can tell it, is as erratic as that o f any o f his previous films. A multi-millionaire

Said Kees: “ The police chief of Hilversum (a nearby city) has been with his family to our retail barge. He said he wanted to grow marihuana because it was a beauti­ ful plant. “ He later returned to say his plants had produced seeds. “ We dont want to lose our good reputation with the author­ ities.”

Kees and Jasper instructed their lawyers to seek an injunction in Amsterdam President (high) Court to prevent the murder scene’ s being shot on their prem­ ises.

But this is unlikely to stop the sequence.

The mind factories chug and wheeze... a weekly student roundup Students knock back ‘prison haven’ T THE height o f the anti War movement Melbourne’s Latrobe university became a sanctuary for draft dodgers.

Although a few people got hassled by it, the decision had a great deal o f support on campus. Last Wed­ nesday a mass meeting o f students was held to propose that Latrobe become a sanctuary once again — this time for escaped prisoners.

The SRC had already passed a motion which said “ this SRC in order to voice its strongest con­ demnation o f the mistreatment o f the inmates in Victoria’s jails, declares the premises o f Latrobe university a haven for prison escapees” . It was put to the mass meeting for ratification and was lost.

Why? There seem to be two main reasons. The inadequate arguments o f those in favor o f the haven, and the class position o f most students.

What the rightwing have haemorrhaged over - as far north as the editorial columns o f the Townsville daily bulletin — has been the flouting o f law and order. It ’s amazing how repetitious rightwing rhetoric is. Whatever happened to Burke? But once the rightwing is dismissed most students, including the Liberal club, agree with prison reform.

The issue then revolved around different forms o f political action, and especially around the nature o f potential escapees. “ But what if a ‘rapist’ escapes and rapes someone on campus?” the SRC leaflet posed rhetorically, and answered it by saying it would not be their responsibility but the prison system and society in general. A position which, as one group pointed out, would not be terribly comforting to the woman raped.

The SRC claimed that the issue at stake has never been the issue o f escapees being hidden on cam­ pus. Their action is a “ political

l A HREE weeks into term on the campus o f the Univer­ sity o f W A there is still no sign o f the much vaunted Pelican news­ paper. First year students are run­ ning from bush to tree frantic with frustration while the rest keenly miss Rocky Raccoon and his little comic strip friends. The passing on o f that popular column, Where the kegs are, is particularly regretted.

Last year’s final issue o f Peli­ can was slammed by the establish­ ment because it contained some dirty things, and now with a court

gesture against the jail system” .

While this gesture is significant it is simply that, a gesture. It is this lack o f seriousness, implied also in the question about rape, that was the weakness o f those in support o f the haven. A t every point they seem to dodge real responsibility for their actions.

This responsibility could have been taken up by making the campus a concrete alternative to the prison system, and through this showing that such an alter­ native can work. This would imply responsibility for rapists if they asked for sanctuary. It would also imply a lot o f work.

Prisoners also happen to be predominantly from working class backgrounds. Draft dodgers were mainly students. I think that the p red om in an tly middle class student body is also largely indif­ ferent to the fate o f the most oppressed class in society; and if they are interested then they want their subject o f interest kept at a distance. This would supply a more deep rooted reason for the defeat o f the motion and the lack o f seriousness with which the whole question o f the haven was approached.

I asked Barry York o f the Prisoners Action Committee at Latrobe what was planned next.

He said that they had planned a forum on prison reform at which the Victorian minister for social welfare, Mr Houghton, who is also a member o f the university’s council, was to debate with a former prison inmate (interviewed in Daylights two weeks back).

Houghton refused. They also plan to continue to use SRC facilities to help inmates and friends and relatives o f inmates. He said the work o f the PAC had received a good response, especially from ex­ prisoners, three o f whom had recently contacted him and wanted to join in the struggle.

T A N U the hassles over Woroni still go on. Not only are the editors beside themselves with apocalyptic jo y if the paper returns from the printers on time but due to the paper shortage each issue costs $35 more to print. The altogether disastrous result o f this could be that our faithful media friend will not ap­ pear with such devastating regular­ ity.

It’s often been said that, the forces o f reaction dont die, but just hide till they are called on.

Well my friends, they were called on the other night, and the rest must have done them good for they were more reactionary than ever. The occasion that brought them streaming from their vermin pits was the attempted ratification o f the AUS proposals concerning Palestine. It was not as though the speakers in favor o f the motions

This, however, was not grant­ ed, each time a pro zionist speaker asked fo r an extension o f speaking time the crowd granted the re­ quest with loud approval; the same request from a speaker from the other side was booed out. So much for good old fashioned fair play.

The strong feeling against AUS has been taken up by one Mark

teachers college student wasnt able to devote all o f his time to Pelican, and since the position o f editor is nominally fulltime his appointment was not valid under the guild constititution. In other words, he wouldnt be earning his money. When Quinn suggested the appointment o f a co-editor it was quickly pointed out to him that there was no provision under the regulations for a co-editor. Which makes one wonder how two names — Le Miere and Sutherland - hogged the spotlights last year.

This anomaly brought up the point that Quinn, being an edu­ cation department employee, wouldnt be able to engage Pelican in the time honored criticism o f the state education department.

were declaring the solidarity with terrorism, nor giving support to the predominantly fascist arab governments, it was just a simple demand for open debate and the right to speak.

Ancient mariners shoot Pelican case pending, the Guild o f Under­ graduates is having trouble finding a printer. The local independent newspaper group turned Pelican down because o f the world shor­ tage o f newsprint, as did a V ic­ torian firm. (Draw your own con­ clusions but not on newsprint for Christ’s sake.) The Australian Union o f 'Students is trying to find a printer for Pelican but it seems nobody wants a bird that lays rotten eggs.

Pelican's problems are not con­ fined to the mundane questions o f newsprint and obscenity charges however. Pelican editor for 1974, Rod Quinn was sacked within a week o f the first issue’s non appearance. The ostensible reason given is that Quinn, being a

Tier, well known student right winger who plans to manipulate this feeling by trying to force A N U to secede from AUS. His plans dont end there, in his fren­ zied craze for disassociation he plans to make membership o f the student union optional.

And now for a note more cultural. The A N U review, that well known bastion o f theatrical satire and buffoonery, makes a welcome return to the campus this year. With notable heavies like Mark O ’Connor throwing their immutable weight behind it, it sounds like a treat for all.

HE conservationists were active at the Gordon Institute o f Technology (near Geelong, Vic) last fortnight.

In an attempt to satisfy the demands for car parks, a few lecturers from the administration (without consulting anyone, o f course) started removing the last trees in existence on the city campus. The idea was to provide 13 car parking spaces at a prob­ able cost o f $5000. The stu­ dents managed to get hold o f a tree trunk and displayed it in the library foyer, surrounded by posters and petitions calling for the axing o f the principal instead o f the trees.

A protest demonstration was held at which 300 students and staff attended. Also visible in the near distance were the police and a T V crew; not visible and not on campus was the principal. The conservationists made their speeches, planted new trees and then deposited the tree trunk on the principal’ s desk. And the matter lies there. ie "fc ★ MEANWHILE, to the north in Ballarat: the SRC president, a certain Lester Driscoll, has just resigned. Lester, who was elected on a beer and dance ticket and who was supported by the ockers at the institute, made his decision shortly after being officially accused o f having a keg o f beer at a private party. Not wrong you say, but the students were paying for it - and with Ballarat’s very tight financial situation $40 is quite a significant sum o f money.

T o the interested few it seems more likely that Quinn’s demise was caused by infighting between the cliques which have a strangle­ hold on student politics and thus on Pelican, the main vehicle o f expression for would-be dema­ * * * gogues.

HAROLD E.HOLT

PEACE

A. N. S. risks seven years T

HE FRONT o f the latest issue o f Alternate news serv­ ice (march 27) is certainly rather neat. As it shows (reproduced above), on the top there is a reprint o f the Defence Depart­ ment Act that forbids any person to "make a photograph, sketch, plan, model, article, note or other document of, or relating to” the US bases. "Penalty” , says the Act, “ is seven years.”

Underneath is quite a good photograph o f the Harold E. Holt base at North West Cape, one o f the American navy communica­ tions bases.

The ANS newsletter is a most valuable source o f Australian and overseas news information. Pub­ lished by AUS in cooperation with International Development Action, this is its second year in its present form but it has been greatly improved by compiler David Spratt, one o f last year’s National U editors. It is fortnight­ ly and available either on a private basis ($10 yearly) or for publica­ tion ($30) from AUS at 97 Drum­ mond street, Carlton, 3053.

Good to see that all the stu­ dent newspapers I ’ve seen this year have moved beyond the lowest common denominator ap­ proach: the beer drinking contest results/ Neil Diamond record raves/ Playboy jokes type material seems to have finally disappeared, hopefully for ever.

There is, however, great varia­ tion in the effectiveness o f the campus media, though the need for it to function as an alternative press now seems to be generally accepted. Students en masse are nearly as conservative as the read­ ership o f the straight press and have to be sensitively cajoled, enticed and persuaded into taking in new ideas o f any sort.

Among the campus press the power to communicate differs in both visual styles and the quality o f written copy. It ’s obviously necessary to put a lot o f effort into layout - this being the McLuhan era and all - and many student papers are doing this skil­ fully. Imagination is more lacking on the literary side; no matter how pretty the pictures are they’ve still got to read the fuck­ ing thing, but jargonism, chunky analysis, repetition and 200 word vocabularies seem to abound.

r 1 f &sia L J

The two basic news mediums o f the student press are the same as those o f the rest o f the media: (i) the narrative report and (ii) the longer straight-down-the-line an­ alytical piece. Why not some more experimentation with other styles, such as interviews, dialogues . . . the development o f more per­ sonal, sensitive stuff typified by the “ New L eft” school in America also seems to be missing. (Hunter S. Thompson, w e’re ignoring you !) And the story with film, book and record reviews is rather sadder than that o f news report­ age.

The tragedy o f National U is that it is bombing out on both verbal and visual. U is on to important stuff o f national scope and interest, such as prisons ac­ tion, womens struggles, the Pales­ tine debate, the US bases, but people are running away when it reaches the distribution boxes.

Having tipped all this shit, I should now say that there is some excellent stuff around. Rabelais (La Trobe) has been particularly good. This year it is being run as a collective, with last year’s editor Arpad Farkas doing the layout.

Arpad has established a very read­ able format with strong black lines and careful placing o f graphics. Issue two had a strong international section, including a Phil West article on the British elections, Joe Camirelli’s expose o f Australian colonialism in New Guinea and a centrespread on the student movement in Indonesia.

Lots wife (Monash) also has an attractive layout, though it has not changed its visual approach much since last year. Apart from some of its reviews Lots is uni­ versally well written. The short news items (international, na­ tional and local) up the front o f the paper work particularly well.

Much coverage in the last edition on the US bases, and the chief local issue seems to be the debate on whether the campus should finally adopt the semester system (see Daylights, 2:12).

The first Honi soit (Sydney U) included some yellow pages, prob­ ably because o f the newsprint shortage. It is largely concerned with local news, though there is the inevitable review slamming The exorcist.

Asian students use their muscle

HRASES like student power, student dissent, the student revolution, etc, contain within them an important politi­ cal idea — the notion that students are a separate, self-con­ scious class in society.

Obviously, this does not mean students are a class in the nine­ teenth century marxist sense o f having, like workers and capita­ lists, a distinct relationship to the means o f production. Rather, their position in the mind fac­ tories gives them a distinct re­ lationship to sources o f infor­ mation in society, and the time and freedom to use these criti­ cally.

In practice, only a small minority o f Australian students have ever seen themselves as hav­ ing such a function. And while they seem to act as a distinct group in many ways, it has been more a matter o f lifestyle than politics — the “ student ethos” means levis, kaftans, Rolling stone and $600 stereo sets, which is how the ad agencies have told them to see themselves.

But in the third world, the students can have a forceful politi­ cal power. It has been clearly visible in recent events in Asia: the demonstrations in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore against Japanese PM Tanaka have profoundly affected foreign rela­ tions in the region, and last Octo­ ber action by hundreds o f thou­ sands o f Thai students toppled Thanon’s reactionary government.

P

Thailand THE remarkable thing about the student movement in Thailand is that it grew from impotence to a devastating political force in ten years.

In november 1972 the NSCT (National Student Centre o f Thai­ land) conducted its first big cam­ paign - against Japanese eco­ nomic policies. A boycott on Japanese goods occurred simul­ taneously with promotion o f local products during Buy Thai week.

Thailand’s trade deficit with Japan in 1971 was $(US)293 mil­ lion. The campaign was directed against both the level o f imports from Japan and the reluctance o f the Japanese to increase Thai par­ ticipation in joint business ven­ tures. These nationalist policies enjoyed the open support o f the local press and Thai business interests, and the tacit support o f the government; The journal o f the Asian Students Association editorialised (rather naively as it

turned out) that the Thai actions showed “ student movements can work constructively together with governments . . . (it dispels) the myth that student actions are necessarily destructive” .

In december a rather different tone entered the politics o f the Thai student movement. The N a tio n a l Executive Council pushed through a decree giving the executive branch o f the government effective control over the judiciary: the ministry o f jus­ tice would have total power to promote, transfer and dismiss judges. The official rationale for this was that it would speed up Thailand’s much criticised legal processes.

This assertion was immediately challenged by many leading legal figures; and the press (hampered somewhat by government restric­ tions) let up a muted outcry. And several thousand students took to the streets.

The government dropped the decree two weeks after it was promulgated.

Over the next few months the NSCT flexed its organisational muscles in a number o f fields. The groundwork was done for a national battle against American influence over Thailand. This rose from resentment at tha influence o f American values on Thai cul­ ture and the style o f economic life, the US hold over the Thai government in foreign policy and indicated by the presence o f US bases used for the bombing o f Cambodia.

Such a campaign would have placed the NSCT squarely in opposition to the mili­ tarist Thai government, and the time was not judged to be ripe for this.

In june another issue took the country to the brink o f confronta­ tion between government and students. Nine students at Ramkamhaeng university published a satire on the prime minister’s decision to grant himself an exten­ sion o f his term as supreme com­ mander o f the armed forces. The university rector, Dr Sakdi, expelled them all. Ten thousand marched through Bangkok under NSCT leadership in protest, de­ manding the reinstatement o f the students and the expulsion o f the rector. The procession rallied at the gigantic Democracy Monu­ ment where a wreath was laid symbolising the death o f the student trust in the country’s leaders Sakdi (under intense pres­ sure) was forced to resign and the nine were allowed back to univer­ sity, but the country’s polarisa­ tion had widened significantly.

In September, it was the government that backed down from fullscale confrontation after an attempt to interfere with uni­ versity admission by granting the military automatic entry rights.

This move had been prompted by the fact that very few graduates were willing to enter the armed forces, despite lavish scholarship offers. Student action took the form o f numerous meetings and a series o f strikes, during which the NSCT showed its commitment to the nation by setting up a success­ ful social aid program involving legal counselling and medical and dental assistance.

The following month the major political objective o f the students - a democratic constitution — was realised in the October 14 revolu­ tion. The story is probably too well known to be worth repeating here, but it should be emphasised that the NSCT had extraordinarily organised control over the whole uprising. A t its final call for action, half a million people poured into the streets and headed for parliament house, pro­ voking the massacre (over 2000 were killed and wounded) that resulted in the forced resignation o f field marshal Thanon’s govern­ ment. Obviously to be a student means a great deal in Thailand.

Since the revolution, students have continued to be a central force in the unstable (though now democratic) regime. Leader o f the NSCT, Thirayundh Boonmee, also coordinator o f the People fo r Democracy Group, uncovered a Thai “ My Lai” when he alleged that government troops were res­ ponsible for the total destruction o f the Ban Na Sai village in the north o f the country. But Thirayudh’s known dealings with the Pathet Lao have split the nation on the issue o f his own credibility, and at the moment the outcome o f this controversy cannot be predicted. Student rallies have been held in his support, though the movement is itself in a state o f inner tension over the issue. It is certain, though, whatever happens, that students in Thailand will con­ tinue to have a strong influence over future events.

Korea IN South Korea the consequences o f dissent are much more severe.

Campus actions have had a ruth­ less response from prime minister Park’s military police, but none­ theless some momentum has been maintained.

Right bobs up.

HE Ridiculous Right has been a victim to varying fortunes at Melbourne university this week.

Hater extraordinaire, “ Wizard” Ian Channell, narrowly missed out on a thousand dollar grant from the union council, which was to be used to publish an anthology o f his collected works.

These “ works” consist o f worthless ruminations concerning the advisability o f womens ser­ vitude, loyalty to Britain and its monarch and the stupidity o f any sort o f radicalism.

In these sorry days o f student apathy, the Wizard concentrates less on ridiculing student dissent and more on spreading his monar­ chist ideas. This he does by means o f a small battalion o f uniformed goons who spend their time parading through the university and occasionally “ warring” with engi neer i ng students.

The antagonism with engineering students is based less along ideo­ logical lines and more along the lines o f who has the distinction o f being the biggest pain-in-the-neck on campus.

The only interesting thing about the Wizard missing the council grant is that he nearly got it: the chairman had to use his casting vote against the grant. Any student body controlling student funds that has half its members supporting someone like the Wizard needs its collective head examined.

This isnt the only area where Channell has support: he lives in a university house, but the admin isnt saying how, where or why.

T

“ The major political objective of the students — a democratic constitution -w as realised in the oct!4 revolution’.’ government was overthrown b y a student revolt in 1960, the demo­ cratic constitution lasted only a year before general Park took power with C IA assistance in 1961. In 1964 he introduced martial law to control student unrest, and since then there has been a steady decline in both civil liberty and the efficacy o f public institutions outside the presiden­ tial apparatus. The constitution was altered by Park in 1972 to allow him to take a third term; this met with sporadic opposition which was finally quashed in july when, after a peaceful sit-in at Korea university was broken up by soldiers, students were jailed and many others inducted into the army.

In October 1972, Park dis­ solved the national assembly and soon after amended the con­ stitution to give himself power to nominate one third o f the mem­ bership o f the assembly, and to dismiss it at will. Not content with these little alterations he also extended the presidential term from four to six years and made an unlimited number o f terms legal, thus setting himself up beau­ tifully for life.

September 1973 saw the first organised opposition to the regime fo r almost a year, in a demonstration at Seoul university.

Four hundred people demanded the restoration o f civil rights and the dismantling o f the South Korean C IA - the main enforcer o f police rule. The students tried to enter the street and march downtown, but ran into an ob­ stacle in the form o f several hun­ dred riot police. A fter holding the students back fo r a couple o f hours the cops stormed into the university, grabbing 150 people on the spot and arresting 50 more who had fled to classrooms and the library.

The protests continued, how ­ ever, climaxing in a rally o f 2000 people, again at Korea university (november 15). There were boy­ cotts at 14 universities and col­ leges as well, and 100 theology students shaved their heads as a denouncement o f Park’s dicta­ torial policies. The students were

joined by intellectuals, journalists and writers, many o f whom are still in jail for their efforts.

Choi Chang Gil, a professor at the college o f law, was one who went with his students; he died while being interrogated at C IA headquarters. The agency put out a statement saying it was suicide.

In december, student leaders from Hong Kong, Singapore, Aus­ tralia and Thailand submitted a joint protest to the Korean government calling on it to re­ store basic human rights in the spirit o f the UN charter.

Singapore IN SINGAPORE, as you might expect, students also have prob­ lems. They have been trying to form a national union for some time . . . without success.

After a couple o f previous attempts had failed a new con­ stitution was drawn up in august 1972 and filed o ff to the registrar o f societies for approval. It was finally knocked back several months later under the provisions o f Section 4(2) o f the Societies act, which gives the registrar the power to reject any application “ if he is satisfied that it is con­ trary to the national interest".

Obviously, Lee’s government is not willing to permit the existence o f what could become a powerful source o f political opposition. * * *

AS WELL as their striking impact on national policies, two other qualities o f the Asian student movements deserve particular mention.

One is their marked social wel­ fare emphasis, derived from the importance o f a reservoir o f stu­ dent skills in developing countries.

In Malaysia the National Union o f Malaysian Students (PKPM ) has set up a national service corps scheme under which students are sent to outlying villages to stay with families for a month, pro­ viding voluntary instruction in health, education, agriculture, economics, and womens and youth movements. The Hong Kong Federation o f Students

organises factory work for several thousand during the vacation in order to promote closer relations between the colony's 400,000 workers and its future technicians and professionals. The Thais have similar arrangements.

Associated with this is the intense nationalist strain running through the policies and the rhetoric o f all the Asian student unions, including a vehement re­ jection o f foreign influence, as this quote from Thailand shows: “ Chiang Mai university stu­ dents last month published a paper entitled The white menace which not only condemned American policy in Asia, but bluntly demanded that Americans go elsewhere for their biddings. It describes the evil and materialist influence caused by the presence o f American troops and western culture on Thai customs, manners and traditions . . .’ ’ (Asian student news, may 1973).

The main force o f anti imperi­ alist feeling has been directed at Japan. During Tanaka’s southeast asian tour early this year a co­ o r di n a t e d campaign against Japanese economic policies occurred in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.

The most spectacular protest was the much publicised riots in Jakarta which left 11 people dead, 807 cars burnt and 144 buildings damaged. On the second day o f Tanaka’s visit crowds stormed the Japanese embassy and attacked Japanese properties. Troops fired automatics and used tear-gas to drive back 100,000 people milling down to the city centre from Chinatown.

As soon as the man had gone the government retaliated by arresting some 800 university lec­ turers, student leaders and intel­ lectuals. It also shut down nine newspapers.

Unlike the Thais, the Indo­ nesian student leaders were not really in control o f the situation: the anti Tanaka demos went much further than planned. There is no central coordinating body, nor is there any consensus on the ulti­ mate political aims among the separate student councils.

An all out attack on the government was not on most agendas and several leaders tried to call o ff demonstrations after the riots broke out. A ll o f which shows the potential Indonesian students have as a revolutionary force for Tanaka’s visit obviously touched o ff a powder keg o f popular feeling which no one knew was there.

The rallies in Singapore and Malaysia were fairly quiet. Not so in Thailand, where a huge crowd, shouting and waving banners, sur­ rounded the Japanese prime minister’s official limousine as it wound its way from Don Muang airport to Bangkok. Bottle bombs exploded in front o f the Japanese trade building. The next day Tanaka met Thai student leaders, who emerged from the meeting very disappointed. The People for Democracy Group refused to meet the premier and denounced his visit as “ merely a diplomatic manoeuvre to conceal the stark truth that Japan’s relations with other less developed countries can never improve as long as she con­ tinues to dominate and exploit them economically.” (A S N , february 1974).

Combined student action in Asia is on the increase, and this is partly due to the growth in stature o f the Asian Students Association. Something o f a joke two years ago, it now includes student unions from most coun­ tries in the region and is impor­ tant in total political terms, not just student terms. Still somewhat conservative (it does not include North Korea, Vietnam or China) and lacking a political over view, it has nonetheless taken a strong stand on liberal issues such as government corruption and sup­ pression o f civil liberties in the region, and has played a major part in the coordination o f the campaign against Japanese imperi­ alism.

The Australian Union o f Stu­ dents is an active member o f the ASA. Through that body’s com­ mu n i c a t i o n networks, AUS organised student unions all over Asia to hand in protest notes to Australian embassies during the controversy here over the sus­ pension o f Charles Perkins by the department o f aboriginal affairs.

And during the student riots against Tanaka in Indonesia which coincided with the sitting o f AUS council in Canberra in january — the 200 AUS delegates held a rally at the Japanese and Indonesian embassies in solidarity with their Jakarta counterparts.

This was announced to the crowds milling in the Indonesian capital, and 40,000 students cheered when they heard the news.

Concerted Australian student action against Tanaka during his projected tour (Sep­ tember or October this year) will probably make front page news throughout Southeast Asia.

MEANWHILE, as the Wizard declines, we witness what appears to be the rejuvenation (after two years) o f the Democratic Club a classic front organisation in the NCC tradition.

A “ prospectus” handed out in the union this week states that the club has, as yet, no formal poli­ cies. It then goes on to state the club’s formal policies.

Some titbits include: “ The need to preserve and enhance the principles o f academic freedom, competence and integrity and .. . the right o f the administration to ensure that such functions are carried on successfully .. . the obligation o f the SRC . . . to spend the student's money only on student's affairs . . . we reject completely all arguments in favor o f abortion . . . ” (They give them­ selves away rather obviously with the last.)

As a token gesture to liberal cum radical ideas, the final policy o f the club states that “ we call for an end to racial discrimination wherever it is practised in the world” .

A Armidale CAE

_r

Teachers College comes out T

HERE is a boycott o f lectures at the Armidale CAE. And it is being extremely effective. Teaching at the college has ground to a halt. Lecturers check the rolls in empty rooms.

No kidding.

N ow teachers colleges aint not­ ed for revolutionary activism.

Quite the contrary, teachers col­ leges were noted for their meek submission to institutional indig­ nities that their fellow tertiary students regard as outrageous.

Teacher trainees are captives o f the education department. They are lectured to and assessed by its employees, indebted to it with a $6500 bond, and given a degree that only has currency with the employer.

Crazy, but is has worked mar­ vellously at inculcating the value o f meekness and submission into generations o f teachers in NSW. Not now. A t Armidale, trainee teachers are having an exhilarating experience o f self-management, a kiss from the spirit that inspired all those union songs about solid­ arity and the fight for the right.

The most effective teaching o f teachers this year at that college is about organising, about meetings and media use and about the bumbling stupidity o f geriatric bureaucracies when faced with a new idea.

The issue is student allowances which is an issue being backed by the Trainee Teachers Association for the state. Living away from home allowance is piddling (if you are living at home, it is even smaller because your parents are supposed to give you your pocket m oney!) and it is not adjusted with any recognition o f the national wage case or the inflation rate. It was raised eight percent this year but too bad if you live in a college as 50 percent do - and must because o f the housing crisis in Armidale (Daylights, 2:11). The residential fees went up this year because the state government withdrew its subsidy. They went up 30 percent to $25 a week (share a room, suffer inadequate feeding — it runs out if you’re last — and suffer maids and matrons invading yer privacy) leaving 1st years $4.05, 2nd years $5.45 and third years $8.45 a week to splurge.

And if you have a child then you are entitled to $2.60 a week child allowance. Wow! Except if you are unmarried!! And except if you are married to a student already on an allowance, for then as a dependant, you get a reduc­ tion in allowance!!!

The teacher trainees want a review and they had prepared a submission on it calling for tying o f the allowances to a percentage o f a first year teachers salary (50 percent for first years, about $46 pw ranging to 70 percent for the 4th year, $64 pw). They called also fo r an end to the discrimin­ ation against trainees living at home, an end to the dual allow­ ance system.

Five times the NSW minister for education, Mr Willis, refused to see a deputation on the matter but eventually, after repeated tele­ phone calls, consents to a meeting

CHOOL is well and truly back - and outrage is the order o f the day. As usual, teachers are having only a marginally better time o f it than the kids.

So it is not surprising that one o f the cries o f outrage should come from a teacher, who asked us to dedicate his slightly lawsonesque lines to all the young, struggling idealistic teach­

claimed that the eight percent review had been a very thorough review but in the discussion that followed they discovered Willis was ignorant o f central facts o f the case. He did not even know what trainees pay for residence fees ($830 per year). He wasnt aware that most colleges are on semester and therefore require two book purchases. He didnt know that the eight percent wouldnt even cover cost o f living increases. Disgusted with the proper channels, the delegation resolved for further action.

On monday, march 25, a mass meeting gathered to hear the case for a boycott o f lectures. About 600 o f the 850 students turned up. Only four voted against, two abstained and a heartwarming sea o f hands voted to boycott lectures until a meeting on thursday.

Willis replied with the imperi­ ousness o f a headmaster in a telegram: CONSIDERATION AL­ R E A D Y B E IN G G IV E N R E ­ QUEST FROM DEPART­ M E N T S T O P B O Y C O T T IN G LE C TU R E S W ILL N O T A S ­ SIST B U T C O U L D H IN D E R SUCH C O N S ID E R A T IO N E W ILLIS M IN IS T E R FO R ED Which might or might not be a punctuated message. Either way the SRC replied: MASS L E C T U R E B O Y C O T T O N L Y M EAN S O F C O N V E Y ­ IN G U R G E N C Y O F TH E S IT ­ U A T IO N U R G E N T R E V IE W NECESSARY TO STALL FU R T H E R A C T IO N SHAW P R E S ID E N T Ian Shaw is one o f the prime movers in the event, the other source o f charismatic energy is Greg Newton, the president o f the local T TA . I met them on the road out o f town where they were standing beside a huge pile o f garbage. They were waiting for a photographer to come to record it as a publicity shot. The garbage was the collected droppings o f cars as far as five miles out along the highway. They had collected it to prove the boycott was no loaf, it was a conscientious protest, by conscientious people who could prove that by doing com­ munity work. Others had picked up every match and cigarette butt in the town mall. Others had work­ ed at the two orphanages in town peeling apples, weeding gardens and fixing fences. And still others had cleared up the yard o f the Sheltered Workshop.

The photographer was late and it started raining. Across the road was TAS, The Armidale School, the bourgeois Armidale school.

On the vast mown green before the beautiful old schoolhouse, boys all in white played earnest cricket on three different well prepared pitches. Ian glanced at the sky and the pile o f garbage, smiled ruefully and said, “ It ’ll look good here for a while. L e t’s go.”

Superficially the dispute seems like another o f those spin-offs o f inflationary economics, the spiral phase for the dollar that ignores and clouds the more fundamental wrongs in the conditions under

Page 18 — THE L IV IN G D A Y L IG H T S — april 2-8, 1974

talking to Greg and Ian the depth o f their dissent impresses itself.

Allowances is just the flash point o f the moment, the dimensions o f their discontent are many and fundamental.

Greg Newton is a drop out o f three years law at Adelaide and he worked in a W A mine before he felt a kind o f evangelical call to teaching. He is articulate and con­ fident. His whole manner conveys honest conviction. One can im­ agine him having the aplomb to cross examine Willis and expose his ignorance.

Greg has read Illich and Freire and gently puts down the lec­ turers o f educational philosophy at the college. “ They teach the words but they miss the spirit o f the philosophy,” he says. “ For example, we were given a lecture on the inquiry method o f teach­ ing,” and he laughs gleefully. Greg now acknowledges the hopeless­ ness o f expecting significant change in the monolith education system and looks forward to start­ ing his own school.

Ian Shaw has a reserve that signals sincerity and lets you know he is fighting because there are just no other alternatives. He dropped out o f Sydney uni and wants to teach moderately retard­ ed kids. In 1972 he had opposed a strike action at the college advo­ cating a letter writing campaign to the local member. They did not get one reply.

Ian, a principal in the skilful organisation b f this very cohesive event, failed social psychology last year. He was told he was “ too philosophical for psychology” .

They were both exhausted when I talked to them. Their energy drained by the intense demands and expectations put on them as leaders. And the next day was a mass meeting to decide the future o f their action. Their imag­ ination was too tired to work and they intended going before the meeting empty handed, hoping an initiative would come from it rather than them.

I rang the next day. The line was through the college switch­ board and Greg explained the static as someone listening in. “ Oh well, they do that,” he said. He told me that some 650 had at­ tended the meeting. The first motion was no confidence in the handling o f the dispute. Greg ex­ plained his case pointing to the favorable press in the local papers and the fact that Willis had had to make a press release to defend himself. One in favor, 649 against.

Greg suggested that the meet­ ing had to choose between ending the boycott, setting another dead­ line or extending it indefinitely.

To his delight, the motion o f indefinite extension came from the floor and was carried with enthusiasm, and only 20 dissent­ ing votes.

What next? Well the boycott could roll on to other colleges.

And if Willis increases the allow­ ance and the bond, they are gonna fight that. There is talk o f a rent strike at the college to have the residence fee lowered. It is not stopping here. It can’t, the imagin­ ation o f trainee teachers is afired.

Form Five English I can’t remember much about the poem, except it was called My last duchess. It was some crappy old epic about how cheap the old duchess was, because she liked guys looking at her.

Teach read it twice, in her flat deadpan voice (God, what a bat). Then I read it twice. Then I had to answer questions like “ What caused the duchess’s spot o f jo y?” “ Why did the duke stare at the duchess?”

A fter copying the answers o ff someone who said they under­ stood it, I had to read two more similar poems. Joy o f spring, . . . there is nothing like the jo y o f spring/ The grass, the wheels through, sprout lush and young. It goes on about the blue heaven o f thrush eggs, and the little lambs frolicking.

Form five English, and stuff like the Duchess gets pushed down our throats. What sort o f feeling can anyone get reading that shit? Good clean feeling, I suppose. It's typical o f the whole school, drowning emotion in dic­ tionaries, until it’s so complicated no one would want to understand it.

So this is English - learning to communicate. With teachers and education caught in the nine­ teenth century, what hope have we? And to help us further along the paths o f confusion is the course on Clear thinking, which makes the simplest bit o f brainwork into a complicated equation.

Clear thinking - you have to follow rules on thought. Your thoughts are no longer free!!

I wonder what form six English will be like.

l- 2-3-4...The Motown lowdown RICHMOND STURDY M AGINE an album that starts with Money (That's what I want) followed by Shop around, Please Mister Postman, Pride and joy, Stevie Wonder’s great Fingertips, then finishes with Martha Reeves’ Love is like a heatwave. It sounds like one of those compilation albums which advertise their existence deep into the T V night. However, unlike most albums o f this kind, all these “ original hits” were from one small Detroit label — Tamla Motown - and it’ s only a fifth of a set called The Tamla Motown story - the first 10 years (avail­ able through EMI $19.75 — five record set).

The recording industry in America is the opposite to that in Europe. Where the latter’s profile is one o f multi-nationals like Polygram and EMI, in America there has always been a history of independent companies started by enthusiastic entrepreneurs as with Atlantic (Ahmet and Nesui Ertegun) and Chess (Leonard Chess) and the most successful Berry Gordy Junior's Tamla Motown Corporation. The label Tamla was named after Gordy’s love for a Debbie Reynolds’ hit, Tammy.

Along with Smokey Robert­ son, Gordy started to build up a formidable array o f successful talent, each year turning the funds back into the business. After all, when you are in records, you need faith as well as nerve. Since this is a “ history” it was seen fit to use a narrator to introduce the songs and artist interviews. Unfortunate­ ly he sounds like that chapter from Genesis: In the beginning etc, then drones on monotonoudy into the night. As founder and co-writer o f Money, Berry tells us how he’d been “ around” , rolling the word around the groove, and coming to us from the ghetto and the “ blues loving people” . Perhaps it would have been more interest­ ing i f he’d spoken about his back­ ground in the Detroit assembly lines, and its relation to Just give me money, that's what I want.

Since Gordy placed a lot o f emphasis on the success factor it’ s not surprising that in all the inter­ views this comes out. The real Motown formula was success = money and vice versa, money = success. This is the real essence o f Gordy’s “ straight line approach” . ’ at that other end o f it the artists saw the Copa and the big hotels as success. This formula worked so well that Motown groups were seemingly able to turn out hits - due to no small effort by writers o f the calibre o f Smokey Robertson, Holland and Lamont Dozier.

The ten years break up into three parts: from 1960-64, 64-68 and 68-70. Up to ’ 64 their hits

I

had been musically a lot looser and lighter. However one that stands out on its own was Stevie Judkin’s (Stevie Wonder) Finger­ tips which must be one o f the most unlikely hit singles, but what a great single — all that raw energy. Even Ray Charles’ hits were much more subdued. Later, during ’63, Liverpool was boom­ ing. Faren Price and the Flamin­ goes recorded Do you love me only to see Brian Poole and the Tremeloes get their version on the Top 20. The Beatles recorded Mr Postman and You really got a hold on me and later the Stones did Get a witness. But it wasnt until the Supreme s broke with Baby where did our love go in november 1964 that Motown had made it outside the States. The Supremes went on to have seven more Top 20 hits before 1967.

The Four Tops followed tw o years later with Reach out and I ’ll be there, and by then Motown had gained acceptance right throughout the English disco cir­ cuit.

During this period the sound was most noticeable in its differ­ ence to the Atlantic/Stax beat.

Motown unlike Stax didnt place a great emphasis on the second and the fourth beat. Rather it was a more evenly spread 1-2-3-4. A l­ though the backing for M ickey’s monkey (V o l Two, Side One) is an example from the earlier period with hand clapping and

only light work, it’ s a perfect example o f the core o f the Motown sound. Compare this to David Ruffin’s Whatever became o f the broken hearted which itself is a stylised number, complete with strong bass lines previously unobtainable. Here the evolution o f the style is complete but the core remains.

V ol four has the greatest . . . those kings o f formation dancing — the Temptations and the Four Tops - double snap! Reach out & I ’ll be there, Standing in the shadows o f love, Bernadette, and then Jimmy Mack by Martha and

Nash's shallow,soppy solo STEVEN COLEMAN W ILD TA LE S: Graham Nash (Atlantic SD-7288).

RAH AM Nash told Rolling stone that he recorded this album after the CSN&Y reunion fcL through. He said he was so pissed o ff not being able to record his gems with the other three that he locked himself in his home studio and taped these 10 songs.

A t best, his new album doesnt well for the celebrated reunion (if and when it comes off), if Nash is really serious about his stuff. At worst, Wild tales is downright shitty.

Nash is a “ simple man who sings a simple song” as he said in his much underrated but all the same wishy-washy first record, simply (and honestly) called Songs fo r beginners. After so many years warbling with the Hollies, one had to give him at least one chance.

But after a pretty mediocre second effort (with Crosby, recorded live and in the studio) Wild tales is, from Nash’s part, unforgivable.

As far the music goes, it’s not bad, with Ben Keith, pedal steel guitarist from Young’s Stray Gators band, and the amazing David Lindley, late o f Kaleido­ scope and more recently the driving wheel behind the new Jackson Browne set (Daylights 2/12), Johnny Barbata, from CSN&Y on .drums, and Tim Drummond on bass, fill out the rhythm section, with Crosby, his mate from way back, on harmony.

On paper, a nice group. But the other things on paper, Nash’s lyrics, take this year’s award for outrageous and immature crap (followed closely by Donovan on

G

Essence to essence, but sure to be topped by the new Cat Stevens due soon). Check out I miss you, so badly dated and irritatingly pristine that it deserves the following full quote: Thinking o f myself today/I'm sorry that you went away/I’m feeling down/What can I say?/I miss you/I'm holding back and it's not fair/I think I ’m trying n o t to care/Of broken hearts I ’ve had my share/But I miss you/What did we do last Saturday night?/Dining at your mother's on whipped cream and wine/Make me feel good all the time/Make me feel good all the time/Make me feel good/Good.

Breathtaking, isnt it? Is Nash, who must be pushing 30 if he hasnt already passed it, undergo­ ing a second childhood, sobbing behind the sheltershed because his girl threw him over for a guy with a bigger stick o f candy? I admit, I chose the worst to quote, but the others arent much better, so I won’t bore you with them I f you get a chance, have a look at them in a shop, but dont hurry.

The tunes are fine, and Nash's singing is nice, but he isnt a solo singer. He tells Rolling stone that he now has the confidence to drop Crosby from the act and kill ’em on his own, but he hasnt got the material. He HAS written

some good things (Chicago, Marrakesh express and even the slightly silly Lady o f the island), so where has the talent gone? He says that sometimes he just doesnt know where the songs are coming from, he just wakes up after a meditation-like trance to find he’s written them I f anyone is a sure candidate for an excorcism, it’ s Nash, after Wild tales.

And it’ s such a shame, because from all accounts he is a really nice guy, a very good harmony singer and hasnt made many mistakes until now. But how can he say o f prisons that There’s not a rich man there/Who couldnt pay his way/And buy the freedom that’s a high price/For the p oo r after the personal millions he made with CSNY? Either success has fucked his head or there was nothing there to corrupt in the first place.

He calls himself an honest man, which is why he writes such soppy shit about women pissing him off.

But check out any o f Stills’ songs about losing Judy Collins (they’re easy to find) and compare the compassion and eloquence. NaSh hasnt got his spikes on, let alone being in the race. He’s like Paul Kantner; a vital part o f Jefferson Airplane as a group, but a complete mess as a solo artist.

What can you do?

I’ve fallowed CSN&Y since Buffalo Springfield, always fearing that Crosby and to a greater extent Nash have been the weak links.

A fter Wild tales it’ s true. Maybe Crosby’s new album can regain some ground; but Nash has got to give that meditation o f his away.

With the worldwide vinyl short­ age, it’s this sort o f shit that will be cut f i r s t . _________________

the Vandellas, finishing with Stevie Wonder’ s I was made to love her. What ,a crippler!!! These tunes are the zenith o f the Motown sound. Yet as Motown had started with quiet ballads, so they continued with them, and while Isaac Hayes and David Porter wrote Hold on I'm coming from a toilet seat in Memphis, Smokey and the Miracles had their big hit I second that em o­ tion. Much quieter than Memphis and less boisterous. Even though Reflections is a dancey up-beat number it was still a lot smoother than other black songs o f the time.

Reflections was Diana Ross’s first single under her own name.

Later during September o f that year, Gladys Knight and the Pips made it with Heard it through the grapevine. Unlike later versions it has an ace bass line and great backing vocals, with the Pips’ voices building up separate rhythms. As Gladys’ version rose on regional charts, Berry took the song and gave it to Marvin Gaye, who with his high voice did a great job and created Motown’s biggest seller.

The success that Gordy had earlier stressed now boomeranged to pressure him; the Isley Brothers thought he was joking when he came up to them and said: “ Con­ gratulations, This old heart o f mine is a smash . .. And everyone is mad at me . . . you’ re new at Motown, and you’ve got a smash hit. Some o f our artists have been with us for years . .. they dont dig you getting the best material.”

But he wasnt (Black music, december ’ 73).

Gladys Knight verbally lashed out at Berry Gordy lqst year in the English musical press com­ plaining o f second string treat­ ment. She then signed away from his label to Buddah; the Four Tops and others followed to other labels. Even Stevie Wonder held o ff from re-signing his contract.

The reason is obvious. In Vol. Five, Gordy’s preoccupation for his most popular artists - Diana Ross and her discovery, the Jack­ son Five - emerges. But apart from Marvin Gaye’s Heard it through the grapevine and the Originals’ Baby I'm fo r real not much stands up to the standard o f the earlier tracks.

Still, Tamla Motown had in ten years, 79 records in the American Top ten, 72 o f them from only ten artists. The sort o f record to frighten most companies. In re­ cent years Smokey has left the Miracles to concentrate more on production, which possibly ac­ counts for hits like Ben from Michael Jackson and Daddy's home (an old Limeliters’ hit) by his brother Jerome — the best from that group, yet still old style ballads. There has been a creative lull at Motown, broken only re­ cently by Stevie Wonder’ s Talking book. Since then, o f course, there has been Innervisions, the Temp­ tations’ Masterpiece, the emer­ gence o f Eddie Kendrick’ s solo LP as well as Smokey’s own album, with its amazing Silent partner in a three way love affair.

If Berry Gordy can accept the transition from hit singles to hit albums, it would seem Robertson, Wonder and Co look like making the next ten years as worthwhile listening as the last ten.

Will the FBI kill Patncia Hearst?

USA’s first political kidnapping upstages activists and veteran radical organisations, reports PETER STANSILL from Berkeley C alifornia NE OF the more enlightening things to emerge from the kidnap­ ping o f publishing heiress Patricia Hearst by the Symbionese Liberation Army is an interesting picture o f America’s New Left in the mid 1970s, after a broody, silent convalescence that has lasted some three years.

The nation’s first political kidnapping, by a previously unknown guerrilla group, has brought in its wake a flood o f reaction from veteran activists and radical organisations who suddenly find them­ selves not only upstaged by what they see as dangerous adventurism, but actually threatened by it.

The S L A ’s action, which has taken on mammoth proportions involving millions o f dollars and many thousands o f people, was an expression o f a desperation that is not shared by the predominantly male, white middle class intelligentsia that was the backbone o f protest in the 60s. Most o f these people are now exerting their influence professionally, particularly in teaching, law, journalism and psychiatry, or through a more freelance political activity at grass roots level. Their chal­ lenges to authority over racism, sexism, repression and corruption continue in muted form through legitimate channels and are meeting with significant, if unsensational, success.

N ow they find themselves threatened on tw o fronts; by the spectre o f revolu­ tionary violence, which offends their humanist sensibilities, and by the possibil­ ity o f a renewed FBI campaign to crack down indiscriminately on all dissenters, which might include them. These two themes have recurred time and again in the many statements published and broadcast from the Left condemning the S L A ’s tactics.

This reaction has inevitably incurred the scorn o f the SLA. From their begin­ nings about a year ago, they were an outlaw organisation, with roots in the black revolutionary brotherhoods o f Cali­ fornia’s prisons, among ex servicemen embittered by their experience in Viet­ nam, and among militant feminists who have steadily been escalating their cam­ paign against white male authoritarian­ ism. In their lengthy communiques they speak for the victims o f poverty and unemployment, o f racism and sexism, of the violence o f everyday life at the bottom o f the social scale.

Their response to these social condi­ tions is violent revolution, without any ifs or buts, in the name o f the powerless, the exploited and the hungry, whom they urge to join them in armed struggle against “ the corporate state” . What has angered the organised Left is that the S LA could be acting so inappropriately, using the most extreme tactics to present

O

a shallow, romanticised revolutionary analysis, and yet with such spectacular results.

The S LA has far more in common with Robin Hood than with Che Guevara.

They are concerned with rubbing the noses o f the rich in the messy reality o f poverty in California, which boasts o f being the wealthiest place on earth, rather than pursuing any pure ideological line.

This has caused a great deal o f con­ fusion and misunderstanding over their demands that Randolph Hearst - chair­ man o f the Hearst Corporation and editor o f the San Francisco examiner - set up a free food program for poor people in the area, as a gesture o f good faith so that negotiations could begin for his daugh­ ter’s release.

The confusion has included organisa­ tional mismanagement, poor quality food, alleged hijacking o f food trucks, attempted intimidation o f food recipi­ ents, small riots at giveaway locations, assaults on journalists, ripoffs from the well-to-do, and police beatings and ar­ rests. The SLA, which claimed to have intelligence units monitoring the pro­ gram, angrily pointed out in its latest taped communique that the food pro­ gram was not just a symbolic demand that would be satisfied by a cynical, symbolic response. They meant what they said very literally - that poor people in selected locations be offered in a dignified way $70 worth o f top quality food, including fresh meat, poultry, vege­ tables and dairy products. The organisa­ tion established by the Hearst Corpora­ tion to fulfill the S LA demands - dubbed “ People In Need” (P IN ) - tried to comply to the letter. They say they gave away food to some 30,000 people for a cost o f $1.35 million.

Meanwhile, Patty Hearst, who was abducted from her Berkeley apartment on february 4, has, according to the latest tape, been transferred to a “ special secur­ ity unit” . It is widely believed that she is now being held b y an all-woman combat unit o f the SLA, which is also indicated by the fact that tw o female S LA mem­ bers spoke on the latest tape.

Already Weatherwoman fugitive Bernardine Dohrn had sent an enthusias­ tic statement from hiding, in solidarity with the guerrillas. Hers was one o f several endorsements o f the action by known revolutionaries who have been lying low in recent years.

Ms Dohrn, who only recently was dropped from the F B I’s “ ten most want­ ed fugitives” list after three years under­ ground, said the S L A ’s action pointed up a reality that would not pass into the memories o f a previous decade - the war between the rich and the poor. Referring to newspaper reports suggesting the

"I've been issued with a 12 gauge riot shotgun" — Patricia Hearst.

Weather People were far more acceptable than the SLA, since their attacks were never aimed at people, she commented ironically: “ It is a new experience for us to be described as a moderate alternative in the Hearst press. This has never hap­ pened before. New L eft ‘moderation’ is invented now as another racist weapon against black revolution.”

A ll the same, she could not condone the S L A ’s assassination o f Dr Marcus Foster, Oakland’s black superintendent o f schools, who was gunned down with cyanide bullets last november. “ We do not comprehend the execution and re­ spond very soberly to the death o f a black person who is not a recognised enemy o f his people,” she wrote. The S LA had claimed Foster was instituting “ police state” surveillance programs o f black youth in Oakland’s high schools.

Ms Dohrn who only recently was dropped from the FBI’s “ten most wanted fugitives’’ list after three years underground, said the SLA’s action pointed up a reality that would not pass into the memories of a previous decade—the war between the rich and the poor.

Shortly after Bernardine Dohrn’s state­ ment appeared in the papers, the Womens Brigade o f the Weather Underground claimed responsibility for planting a bomb in the San Francisco office o f the department o f health, education and wel­ fare (HEW). As usual, they phoned in a warning and no one was hurt in the explosion. A statement they released later called HEW a “ degrading, violent and aggressive system o f control over wom­ en” , and said the attack was to mark International Womens Day, “ in solidarity with the rising resistance o f women” .

Another known voice welcoming the new-style struggle was that o f the Black Liberation Army, another clandestine organisation whose membership includes many prisoners. They pledged solidarity in the liberation struggle against “ the military armed fascist corporate Ameri­ can state” .

Many expressions o f understanding and sympathy for the S LA goals have come from activists formerly involved in organisations like the Venceremos Bri­ gade, Students for a Democratic Society (which evolved into the Weather Under­ ground), and the Youth International party, but the tactics o f assassination and kidnapping have generally been condemn­ ed, at the very least, as inappropriate and opportunist. Much stronger criticism came from the Black Panther party and the American Indian Movement, who disassociated themselves totally from the SLA. A IM leader Dennis Banks, currently on trial for the Wounded Knee occupa­ tion last year, called it “ a punk organis­ ation” .

Almost all the Left-orientated campus groups and the few established socialist parties have spoken out against terrorism, claiming it discredits the entire Left.

Marxists have accused the S L A o f “ play­ ing cowboys and indians” and failing to offer a strategy for a socialist party that would combine military actions with mass struggles.

The S L A ’s response to criticism from radicals came in a taunting message spok­ en by a woman, presumably one o f Patty’s captors, on the latest tape: “ It has been claimed that we are destroying the Left, but in truth an unarmed L eft is doomed — as the people o f Chile can sadly testify.” The woman combatant blamed the analysis o f radical leaders on cowardice in the face o f revolutionary violence or a personal stake in “ allowing the enemy to enslave or oppress and tranquillize the people” .

While the debate over political correct­ ness rages, with the FBI standing by in the wings, the threat to Patricia Hearst’s life is as real as ever. However, her own C

Patricia Hearst in a recent tape accused the FBI and other federal agencies of setting her up to be executed in an effort to discredit the SLA, and she criticised the press and television for picturing her as a helpless innocent girl abducted by escaped black convicts—“I’m a strong woman and I resent being used in this w ay.” reaction has been a shocking surprise, if not to her friends on the Berkeley campus, where she is a student, then certainly to her parents. Sounding in no way intimidated or panic stricken, she has forcefully taken her own stand on the matter — one that could hardly be ex­ pected from a political kidnap victim and in the process caused much embar­ rassment to her parents and the authori­ ties trying to free her.

She, in a recent tape, accused the FBI and other federal agencies o f setting her up to be executed in an effort to discredit the SLA, and she criticised the press and television for picturing her as a helpless innocent girl abducted by escaped black convicts - “ I ’m a strong woman and I resent being used in this way” .

Then she told her parents about the kind o f things the S LA had given her to read - newspaper reports about the current practice o f psycho-surgery and the daily use o f drugs and tranquillizers in America’s prisons, reports on conditions in the “ adjustment centre” at San Quen­ tin, and a book by the late George Jackson called Blood in my eye. O f Jackson’s book, she remarked, “ I ’m start­ ing to understand what he means when he talks about fascism in America” !

Then, in one o f several verbal lashings she has directed at the FBI, she reported: “ I have been issued a 12-gauge riot shotgun and I have been receiving instruc­ tions on how to use it. While I have no access to ammunition, in the event o f an attack by the FBI I have been told that I will be given an issue o f cyanide buckshot in order to protect myself, because it is the (Symbionese) federation’s opinion, and my own from observation, that if the FBI does rush in, it will obviously be doing it against the wishes o f my family and in total disregard for my safety. In fact, they would be doing it to murder „ _ t f me.

The FB I has certainly come in for more criticism than any other party in this drama. Not only have both kidnap­ pers and captive accused them o f hatch­ ing murderous and deceitful schemes, but

Randolph Hearst and Patty's fiance have also voiced misgivings over what they might have in mind.

The bureau has around 200 agents working on the case, including four SWAT units (Special Weapons Attack Teams). They have questioned hundreds o f people and are known to be keeping a close watch on the activities o f many Left-leaning organisations, but otherwise they have been unable to make a move, claiming that Patty’s safety is their prim­ ary concern.

The G-men, heroic agents o f justice to J. Edgar Hoover’s generation, have recent­ ly had their good-guy image shot to pieces by numerous revelations in the courts o f illegal wiretapping, infiltration and disruption o f political groups, not to mention their deep involvement in the Watergate scandal. Traditionally, they have been able to defend their actions by the magic words “ in the interests o f

area will become the target for one o f the most exhaustive witchhunts in recent decades” .

So far, however, the witchhunt has not materialised. The only arrest connected with the case is that o f an official o f the local chapter o f Vietnam Veterans Against the War, who is charged with assaulting an Oakland police officer with a pocketknife while being questioned about the kidnapping. The man claims he is being framed as a scapegoat, because his organisation has been linked in the press with the SLA. Any FBI crackdown is unlikely to come while the present sensitive negotia­ tions are in progress. Everything now hinges on the two supposed S LA mem­ bers, Russell Little and Joseph Remiro, who were arrested a month before the kidnap after a shoot-out with police.

They stand charged with the muider o f Dr Marcus Foster, as well as attempted murder o f police officers.

national security” , but there is a growing popular feeling that this has often amounted to gross infringement o f civil liberties.

For many years the FBI has been perhaps the only subject upon which a splintered Left could agree, but now there are real fears that the much more widespread antipathy might force them into using commando tactics to “ solve the case” . So the word is out, in the minority communities, among students, radicals and most o f the liberal middle class, not to cooperate with the feds, in the interests o f everyone’s safety.

A statement published last week from the National Lawyers Guild advises people, in no uncertain terms, to refuse to talk to the FBI. Their reason is the same one that has been echoing around California since Patricia Hearst was kid­ napped - “ It’s a fair guess that in the days, weeks and months to come the Bay

The SLA has declared the men were members o f an intelligence unit and has repeatedly warned that their welfare is inexorably tied to the life o f Patricia Hearst. The two prisoners have complain­ ed through their lawyers o f being confin­ ed to so called “ strip cells” on death row in San Quentin, o f threats on their lives, and o f a clandestine jail visit by FBI agents. They were hurriedly moved to a, county jail, but a request that they be aUowed to appear on national television to make a statement was denied by a judge.

It is highly likely that the SLA wEl eventually demand their release in return for Patty’s freedom, once the free food program has been completed to their satisfaction. This development could still be several weeks away, and there is Ettle chance that the attorney-general will per­ mit such an exchange.

Meanwhile, the talking continues, shrouded in speculation, rhetoric and confusion - another sub-plot in the continuing American trauma o f the 70s whose denouement is fearsome to im­ agine.

SAN FRANCISCO: Lavender University opened last month with 200 students en­ rolled. And the founders believe that re­ sponse to the spring catalogue will be much greater.

John P De Cecco, one o f nine members o f the collective that promoted Lavender U, said that 13,000 copies o f the winter cata­ logue were printed.

The catalogue is the most visible part o f the school. There is no campus, no bureaucracy, no lecture halls.

Classes meet at the homes o f teachers and organisers. People register for courses by using the telephone. Fees are very little or non-existent. And it costs less than £1 to list a course in the catalogue if one wants to teach. Examples o f titles: “ Classical Music For Rock Freaks” which covers five major styles o f classical music; “ A Rose Is A Rose Is A Rose’ which centers around Gertruds Stein; “ Jogging For Fun And Exercise” ; “ Handwriting Analysis” ; “ Opera Appreciation” ; “ Gay Greek Literature” ; “ Modern Dance” ; “ Mysticism” ; and the “ Joy O f Eating” .

Lavender University started as a tiny collective o f seven gay men and two gay women, organised to form the first gay university in the world. Founding the university rested on a concern for teaching, learning, sharing, and developing interests.

There is no hiring, retention, or tenure; no promotion committees and procedures. The purpose o f the school is “ to provide gay people with an opportunity to share their knowledge, skill, and experience with other gay people. In occupation, education, and age they are as diverse as the courses in the catalogs.”

The heaviest enrollment was in classes and groups dealing with religion, mysticism and hiking. Requests for new courses include medical care, plant care and selfdefense.

A llo w y o u r b ro w to be relaxed and com forted. Let yourself go. Pretend that you're just w ip in g th e emotions from yo u r b ro w and rem oving them .

Put yo u r hands behind your head and feel yo u r neck. Feel the tension in the muscles along the ridge at the base o f your skull (the occipital ridge — the ridge where y o u r scalp attaches, alm ost d ire ctly in line w ith the ears).

This tension is part o f the tension th a t you hold in yo u r forehead. The scalp is a one-piece facial ligament th a t attaches both in the fro n t a t the forehead and in the back o f the neck. The neck has the most tension. Therefore, you have to w o rk w ith the back o f the neck as well as the forehead to relieve tension in yo u r scalp and forehead.

One o f the things you can do to relieve this tension is to take a small firm ball (a b o ttle w ill do, b u t a ball is more com fortable) and place it at the back o f yo u r neck. Now let yo u r head relax on to the ball; begin to ro ll yo u r head,

feeling for tense areas. You will know what area is tense . . . you will feel a lump or bulge in the back of your head and maybe a feeling of soreness there. Tension in the neck or back of the head can be a source of headache and stiffness. This exercise releases a large amount of that held tension. Allow yourself to completely let it go. Be sure to continue your breathing; sometimes this tension and discom­ fort is enough to stop your breathing rhythm and make you tighten elsewhere in your body.

If so, stop the exercise until you have your breathing and tingling pattern going again, then continue.

The next area of awakening is the area just above the eyes along the eyebrows and in

between th e eyes. Start b y placing y o u r thum bs just along the ridge o f th e eyebrows, especially between th e eyes. Massage th is area w ith a strokin g m o tio n . Carry the stroke around to the temples. Do this at least 10 tim es; keep yo u r breathing going, one stroke w ith each breath.

You use this area o f yo u r face to express such feelings as worries, fre ttin g , doubts, and in q u iry . These and many more feelings may come to you as you release th e area through massage. If a th o u g h t o r a feeling does come to you just a llo w th a t to happen, experience it, then watch it pass . . . m erely continue yo u r le ttin g go and yo u r breathing.

When you come to the area around your tem ple, be aware o f any holding o r tension in the fan-shaped area above the ear (this is the tem poralis muscle). This area is associated w ith clenching y o u r teeth and jaw. Massage th e area w ith th e heel o f y o u r hand. As this area is released, you may become aware o f aggressive or angry feelings, or you may feel like m oving yo u r head in a " n o " m o tio n . Go ahead, express the " n o " by shaking yo u r head . . . just let it roll fro m side to side . . . a llo w the feeling associated w ith this m otio n to come out.

Sometimes this is expressed as " I w a n t" o r " I w ill" ; encourage these feelings to be expressed.

N ow w ith th e three m iddle fingers o f the hand, begin to stroke just b e lo w the eyes, carrying th e stroke clear around again to the tem ple area, " m ilk in g " o u t the p u ffy areas just below th e eye sockets and m aking a continual m otio n around to th e to p o f the ears and the back o f th e head. Do this 10 tim es, b u t keep yo u r breathing going. This m otio n helps to get rid o f bags and lines around the eyes; it also relieves th e hard, cold, staring q u a lity that many people's eyes develop.

It is interesting to note th a t after you w o rk w ith th e muscles around th e eye you may discover th a t yo u have new energy in yo u r eyes; things may lo o k very m uch clearer. Y ou may have a new consciousness o f w hat yo u see when you open and close yo u r eyes. If this begins to happen, lo o k around th e room , exercise yo u r eyes, p u ttin g this new awareness to use.

Continue your massage dow n your face to your cheeks. Rub with circular motions and firm pressure; feel the muscles beneath your fingers. Use a "wiping away" motion. As your massage moves down your face to your cheek you may find yourself feeling like you wish to cry. If you can, just allow yourself to cry; allow the tears to come until they are finished. You will find that a great deal of the tension that was held in your face has been relaxed. When massaging your upper lip, you may discover feelings of laughter, and fantasies o f a pleasant nature . . . such as running in the country, or the memory of a pleasant childhood outing.

Again, let the experience happen.

Now go to the lower lip and chin, paying particular attention to the corners o f the mouth.

The area fro m ju s t below th e jaw up to the ear is the masseter, the m ajor jaw muscle fo r clam ping th e jaw shut. D o n t fo rg e t to give this

muscle firm pressure and massage it in a circular m otio n .

The em otions and expressionsthat are held in this cheek area seem to be some o f the most dram atic yet th e easiest to release. The constant "n ic e g u y " sm ile w hich hides anger or aggression, or its female counterpart, the "hostess" smile, th e lo o k o f sadness around the eyes which holds tears and sorrow , a feeling o f te rro r or panic like not being able to escape, etc. may be associated w ith this area. The p o in t is th a t if you feel these things pay a tte n tio n to them , and th a t you are allow ing them to come up; you can experience the feelings, let them happen, and go on fro m there. Remember to

Raise yo u r arms up over yo u r head and, as you take a breath in, roll back on the barrel; let

a llo w y o u r breathing to continue at a fu ll, sm oo th ly-flo w in g , relaxed rate. If y o u r breath­ ing pattern is broken, reestablish it before beginning again.

N ow take y o u r low er jaw in y o u r hands, hold it, and open and close y o u r m outh, clicking yo u r teeth together — about 32 times.

See if you can let y o u r jaw become more relaxed, as if you were in a stupor.

As you w o rk w ith y o u r jaw, you can begin to see the connection between the sounds you make and yo u r breathing. As you were doing this massage, you should have been m aking the sounds th a t come w ith the breathing. If you d id n t, do so the next tim e you practise these exercises. There are some chronic em otions that seem to be released when w o rkin g around the m outh and jaw. Sometimes helplessness, feel­ ings o f pitifulness, a quivering chin, and tears are released at th is p o in t. The gesture o f tu rn in g dow n the corners o f th e m outh (as a negating statement) is also associated w ith these negative feelings, w h ich may be expressed when th e area is released. A great deal o f tension is held in the jaw, b u t most p a rticu la rly anger. As tensions are released here it is useful to stretch yo u r jaw o u t and raise yo u r upper lip in a snarl — and growl. N ow make a vowel sound to go w ith yo u r expression. Y o u may feel strange, b u t doing this w ill dissipate some stored anger.

It is obvious that as you do these exercises, you will find that a great many feelings and expressions associated with your "character" or "mask" may come to the surface. You will be very interested to note how many of your feelings you hold or "block" in your face. The face is a major means of expressing feelings, but it is also one of the major means of blocking feelings and their expressions. During sexual excitation many people hold their jaws very tense, hold their faces very rigid, close their eyes and block a great deal o f the feelings of excitement that want to come out during intercourse. Releasing the tension now will increase your feelings in intercourse, which is what you are after.

Now let’s move on to the chest, and begin the movement exercises.

O VER A BARREL. I have devised a padded barrel (I call it the Rosenberg barrel) which is a convenient way of working with breath, sound and the way you hold tension in your chest. (A word of caution: dont do any exercise that is uncomfortable or painful, particularly those which involve bending backwards. If you have back troubles, you had better skip this one).The construction of the barrel is very simple. It is merely a keg about 18 inches in diameter and three feet long, padded with a piece of foam rubber, then covered w ith canvas or leatherette.

If you (font wish to go to that effort, just wrap a blanket around a barrel and tie it with a rope or two.

Before you begin this exercise, make sure that your breathing is up and that you have some tingling in your hands or body. Sit with your back against the barrel and make yourself comfortable.

a sound o u t . . . ahhhhl. As you ro ll, y o u 'll fin d that there's one place in your back, or a couple o f places, th a t are tense. Also, the sound you're making w ill seem to stop or be forced at those places. When this happens, roll back and fo rth over th a t area to encourage releasing the area.

Now start up the barrel again. Do this u n til you have freed yourself o f these tense areas and yo u r sound doesnt change as you ro ll. In other words, the sound is one continuous ahhhhhhh

You dont have to have a barrel; you could use a stool or the end of a couch, some pillows rolled up, or any number of things, but using a barrel allows you to roll back and forth at the rate and degree to which you feel most comfortable.

Many times the tension that you feel on the barret is right at the point below the diaphragm.

This is the major place that you'll want to put pressure; if you dont have a barrel . . . you'll ,

want to stretch yo u r back, and open your chest as much as possible.

A fte r you've opened the diaphragm, you can roll on back, and keep rolling back and fo rth u n til yo u're able to rest yo u r shoulders on the flo o r w ith o n ly your pelvis supported by the barrel. When you can do this, y o u r whole torso w ill be opened fo r deeper breathing.

This exercise o fte n elicits a fear o f falling in many people and is akin to the same feeling of loss o f co n tro l th a t comes w ith orgasm or "fa llin g in love". Fear not, you w o n 't fall. Pay a tte n tio n to y o u r breathing and notice where on the roll you tense up and stop yourself.

W ork these places back and fo rth u n til they open.

T H E PE LV IC BOUNCE. You are now ready to move fu rth e r dow n the body and in to your pelvic area. As yo u're lying on the flo o r w ith y o u r knees up, raise your hips o ff th e ground and bounce yo u r pelvis.

at this tim e : y o u r breath w ith y o u r pelvic rota tio n . Practice it very slo w ly; be sure yo u r breath goes o u t when y o u r pelvis comes fo rw a rd . Pay a tte n tio n to how you tense yourself by moving m ore muscles than are necessary to do th is simple rocking o f the pelvis. T ry to relax those extra muscles. Once you've got it, y o u 'll begin to see how natural the phenomenon o f pelvic movem ent is.

Breathe and do this pelvic rock fo r at least five minutes, paying a tte n tio n to yo u r breath . . . being sure th a t yo u r breath is "d ra w n in through the genitals" when the pelvis tilts back, and goes o u t th rough them when th e pelvis tilts fo rw a rd . Y ou may fin d th a t now yo u are getting some vib ratio n s, some shaking and tingling on th e inside o f y o u r legs. This m erely means th a t the energy flo w has moved downward. Slapping y o u r legs together or rubbing and lig h t massage make these feelings more co m fo rta ble.

Strange things m ay start happening now; all o f a sudden yo u r neck may get tense, o r a headache may sta rt, or you may feel pain some other place in yo u r b o d y. S top if you feel tension com ing in to yo u r neck. As yo u r pelvis

moves it is m ost com m on to get tension reflected back up in to yo u r neck, because he neck and the pelvis w o rk together. The way you hold y o u r head and th e w ay th a t you hold yo u r pelvis are coordinated, so as you begin to loosen up y o u r pelvis, the tension may s h ift up to y o u r neck. If so, start again . . . start back w ith massaging yo u r neck, get yo u r breathing started sm oo th ly again, paying a tte n tio n to it as you go along, and again slo w ly w o rk up to y o u r pelvic movem ent. W ith a little w o rk, yo u r neck should release again. Do this same th in g — massage plus starting over again — fo r tension anywhere else in yo u r body.

During th e day, as you go about yo u r life, pay a tte n tio n to th e am o u n t o f tension you hold in yo u r pelvis when you d o n t need to . . . w hile w alking, dancing, o r m oving in any way.

Then tr y to see how yo u reflect this to yo u r neck. If you can catch this sequence often enough you can save yourself a lo t o f tension headaches.

PA N TIN G . One way o f rap id ly starting the breathing pattern and increasing y o u r tin g lin g is to pant w ith the chest o n ly. The sequence is:

draw air in to yo u r chest and pant six times, then do one long exhalation. Repeat this sequence a b o u t 10 tim es and yo u r breathing and tin g lin g w ill be started. Do this a fte r any in te rru p tio n in y o u r exercises to q u ickly resume yo u r previous level o f "charge” .

PE LV IC L IF T , (snake-like lif t o f pelvis). This is a yoga and dance exercise w h ich is designed to emphasise the proper m o tio n o f th e fin a l pelvic movements o f the orgastic refle x. It also gets yo u r energy, w hich has been aroused b y yo u r breathing, in to y o u r fe e t . . . g ro unding the energy, in o ther words. The pelvic lif t is sim ilar to the way a snake lifts o ff th e ground, one vertebrae a t a tim e. Start b y ta kin g a breath in and cocking yo u r pelvis back; then as you expel yo u r air o u t (remember to imagine yo u r air coming in and o u t through yo u r genitals) raise

Then tu rn over and bounce it the other way.

(If you are male and you have an erection d o n t do this p a rt!).

grounding yo u r energy in to the flo o r (the w all, in this case) or in to yo u r feet. Do this 5-10 times slow ly. Remember to breathe in and o u t o f y o u r genital area.

ON A L L FOURS. This exercise is sim ilar to the last exercise, but turn e d over. Y o u r feet are against th e w all; rock yo u r pelvis back (inhaling) and then come forw ard w ith y o u r pelvis (exhaling), pushing w ith y o u r hands on

It is helpful to p u t yo u r feet against the wall as you bounce. Bounce yo u r pelvis vigorously at least 25 tim es on each side. This w ill awaken yo u r pelvis and it w ill begin to come alive. This exercise may release stored anger; if this happens, h it o r beat a p illo w .

P E LV IC R O C K IN G . Lying on y o u r back again, place yo u r hands on yo u r pelvis, and, as you take a breath in, let yo u r pelvis rotate back, arching y o u r back very slig h tly. A t this pon t, it is im p o rta n t th a t you begin to change the emphasis on y o u r breathing. You have been breathing in and o u t through your nose and m outh. N ow begin a kin d o f m ental gymnastics to change the origin o f your breath . . . it should now be centred on y o u r genital area. In o ther words, im agine y o u 're p u llin g the a ir in through y o u r genitals a nd exhaling o u t through the same place. But keep yo u r m outh open, and keep sighing as you exhale. Y o u r firs t m otio n is to slig h tly cock y o u r pelvis back as you take a breath in , and then as you let it o u t, let yo u r pelvis rotate fo rw a rd .

H o ld the pelvis there u n til yo u're ready to inhale again. Y o u r pelvis may w ant to bounce.

A llo w th a t to happen any tim e it feels com fortable. So it's breathe in — pelvis back, and breathe o u t — pelvis fo rw a rd . If you have tro u b le doing this and im agining yo u r breath is com ing in and o u t y o u r genitals at the same tim e, practise just the breathing part u n til you've g o t it.

Once yo u 're sure o f yo u r pelvic movement, drop yo u r arms to y o u r side and continue the movem ent in a relaxed manner 15 tim es. Your exhalation should be a letting-go. Y o u r stomach sh ouldnt be tig h t. Do n o t force the movement.

Just rock y o u r pelvis forw ard very lig h tly , letting air o u t. This pelvic ro ta tio n is the proper way to th ru s t during intercourse. If you do not let your pelvis rotate freely, you can o n ly ithrust rig id ly , w ith y o u r whole torso. Once you get the hang o f pelvic ro ta tio n , y o u 'll prefer i* to whatever you've been doing.

Now at the same tim e you exhale, reach downward w ith y o u r arms. Do this about 10

n ot tig h t at this p o in t: it should be relaxed w ith the pelvis up and fo rw a rd . Begin the sequence again b y taking a breath and cocking y o u r , pelvis back o n ly when y o u 're ready to breathe again. Do this exercise in a very slow movement. Practice this at least 8-10 tim es each session. This, as I said, is th e fin a l m ovem ent in an orgasm: th a t is, the pelvis moved forw ard, breath o u t, feet grounded. It is most critica l to feel the spreading o f excitem ent th ro u g h o u t yo u r b o d y, especially how y o u r energy bounces back fro m the ground or y o u r feet to yo u r pelvis.

B IO E N ER G ETIC B R ID G E . This exercise is really an exaggeration o f the last exercise that you did. Sometimes b y exaggerating, the feeling o f th e muscles can be b rought to y o u r a tte ntio n far m ore easily. I d o n t recom m end this exercise fo r everybody; it's p re tty strenuous- Just do it if you wish to fu rth e r cement yo u r feeling o f pelvic activation. Place yo u r fists underneath yo u r heels. Then slo w ly bring yourself up on yo u r head, bridging, like wrestlers do, fro m yo u r head to yo u r heels. As you breathe, let yo u r pelvis rotate back in the same easy

breathing manner th a t you used in pelvic rocking. Breathe fo rw a rd and back in this alternative position to get the feeling o f moving yo u r pelvis. What yo u 're starting to do now is to get in to the concept o f "g ro u n d in g ” , o f getting y o u r energy movem ent dow n in to your feet. A t the same tim e, you are getting yo u r pelvic m ovement and y o u r breath better coordinated.

G R O U N D IN G A G A IN S T A W A L L . Put y o u r feet up against a wall and do y o u r breathing movement, rocking y o u r pelvis back as you inhale; now exhale, rocking it fo rw a rd and

the flo o r and pushing against the wall w ith yo u r heels. Then come back slow ly to y o u r starting position. Do this one 5-7 times.

A ll these exercises are ways o f getting your energy dow n in to yo u r feet, and o f pushing up w ith yo u r pelvis. As you do them, you may begin to feel tig h t and tense again.

If tension occurs, you must go back and fin d where you're holding on. Y ou may have stopped breathing, so start again. As you begin to pay a tte ntio n to where you're holding on, y o u 'll fin d th a t many tim es the inguinal area (the area just above the pubic hair) and the belly are very tig h t.

Calling Sylvia O K — so Cherry R ip e (nee P ie) reckons that Sylvia and the Synthetics have had the day.

Even i f the dear lady did not intend appearing on stage simultaneously with members o f the Synthetics, one w ould assume fro m the ton e o f her rave that she w ou ldn t even wish to b e seen dead w ith them. Cherry also neglects to m ention that she appeared in (prior to this) the “ tedious” “ Barkleys o f Broadw ay” show which she mercilessly slated.

Eating meat I R E A D the article b y Larry Drake, Daylights, 2/10, w ith interest. I have always thought that the study o f the b o d y organs and their capabilities the correct approach to developing thought on what is “ healthy” and what is not.

One o fte n hears phrases such as “ healthy exercise” etc, but has an yb ody ever studied the b o d y organs and w orked ou t their capabilities.

I am amused when I think o f all the e ffo rt that goes in to testing capabilities o f performance, durability and such perform ed b y engineers on bridges, machines, roads, vehicles, and others, and the lack o f such on people. It appears to me that man really does regard machines in a m ore favorable aspect than themselves. (I am correct here as I think o f all the testing, in laboratories and “ in the fie ld ", that is carried o u t on machines designed to kill people, and animals, w ith .)

How ever, to return to comrade Drake and his story. I do believe that

peoples teeth are similar to herbivores such as sheep and cows, thus tendency to claim that people are supposed to be vegetarians. This is further supported b y the comparison o f a d og’ s intestinal tract w ith that o f people. Supposedly the dog is adopted to a carnivore’ s diet as it is short etc.

But, when the intestinal tract o f p eople and herbivores such as cows and sheep are compared, they are still vastly different. So can som eone explain this?

I w ou ld like som eone know ledgable in this field to do so, that as people are now om nivores that the intestinal tract — including teeth and other organs be compared w ith other om nivores and any discrepancy betw een them, be explained.

Comrade Drake also mentions the association o f cancer and meat eaters.

He may b e interested to k now that a cancer research group in the USA, I think it m ay be a government agency, but I ’m n ot sure, has just started studying seventh day adventists to try and establish a reason for the lack o f cancer in these people fo llo w in g observations that S D A ’s have ump teeth smaller cancer rates than non S D A ’s. So far reasons cited are that all good S D A ’s don t drink, smoke o r eat meat. A ll suggestions o f divine privilege have so far been discounted. However, it is the meatless diet aspect that is being studied closely as much detailed in fo is know n about cancer and smoking and some in fo associated w ith grog. A llo w in g fo r the tobacco and alcohol aspects, S D A ’s still have less cancer than meat eaters.

His comments about the uneco nom ic and selfish approach to raising o f meat to eat is all to o true. However, h opefully in fla tion and the gradual collapse o f capitalism that has begun will bring a bit o f sanity in to the w orld and meat w ill be priced o ff the table o f all except the bourgeoisie and capitalist classes, and they then w ill eat them­ selves to a cancerous eliminations.

Getting Access to the \

PAUL COULTER N A BROAD sense, the A B C ’s new attempt towards community television will be successful, because it at least allows small pressure groups a chance to establish themselves.

Access — (no relation to our info input column) starts next Wednes­ day at 10.15 pm with a Sydney-based show involving the Ad Hoc Anti Expressway Group and the Neo-Parnassian poets from the Old Church: the following week it is down to Melbourne with an Italian group on migrant problems, then back to Sydney and so on.

I

The show is based on BBC ideas and the producers, Robert Moore and Bruce Allen (ex Monday conference), are ready to assure people that the show is meant to allow “ ideas” access to the national network with only

ABC advice, N O T direction. This is very different to groups involved with Sources in Brisbane.

In the sunny capital the ABC was accused o f “ brain fucking” by exploiting community groups to obtain ideas without allowing the groups free expression or a democratic approach to produc­ tion.

Many people presented exceptional scripts after much hard work and research without payment only to have them fucked over by the ABC “ for clearer presentation” .

Access has a budget o f $500 per show to be spent on the groups behalf. This can be used for travel, film stock, co-axial links and has nothing to do with the ABC’s expenses. The Arcadia theatre in Chatswood, NSW, and the Caulfield town hall, in

Melbourne, are new ABC studios allowing plenty o f time for videotaped reharsals. The shows will be broadcast live before an audience from the studios. The direction o f the program is up to the group without the inter­ ference o f “ A u nty’s” moderators or interviewers (unless asked for).

Groups have to pronounce the ideas stated as in the application form presented to the selection committee (four ABC heavies, plus producers). They have to refrain from personal abuse, incitement to riot, libel, electoral or commercial campaigning, and o f course obscenity.

It is certainly not community television in a cable or small community sense, but it sure looks like Aunty is making an attempt to realise some o f senator Doug McClelland’ s ravings. This

N E major evil o f presentday society is professionalism. In the beginning each man solved his own problem. Then som ebody took, or was given, the role o f professional problemsolver. That role provided status, pow er and income fo r the professional man. H e would not dream o f doing himself ou t o f his job. So while he becomes even m ore proficient at solving problems, he does nothing towards preventing them.

O

There are m ore doctors, lawyers, policemen, and social workers today than ever before. Powers o f civilisation and techn ology are harnessed to solving problems but n ot to avoiding them. M edicine, law, order, and w el­ fare are at an all-time high in our society today; but health, justice, peace and happiness are at an all-time low.

O f all peoples, w e — modern white society — are least fit to survive. I f professional facilities deserted us w e w ou ld be the least capable o f man-toman cooperation, and the m ost brutal and miserable o f peoples.

Take the doctor. His know ledge and skill is w a y beyond that o f the average man. A n d medical inform ation for the masses is taboo. We need him. But as fo r healthy living, which w ould make hospitals and doctors almost obsolete, he keeps his mouth shut. Non-drug, non-surgery “ fo lk ” cures, natural amounts and types o f foo d , air, and activity, and a positive attitude to life and death, are regarded b y most doc­ tors as so much crankery and dis­ missed.

Take the lawyer. His know ledge and skill is w a y beyond that o f the average man, and the law, drafted b y men, is made so com plex and unintelligible that people cannot hope to know it and defend themselves. A s for law reform , the lawyers are often the last to speak up.

Take the policeman, the police com ­ missioner, the minister o f police, the penal system, and the warder.

Take the social w orker. His job is to patch-up the too-obvious “ sores” in the social system, so that the system itself is not challenged. So the prob­ le m s grow . The causes, such as the enforced nuclear fam ily system, the enforced alienated w ork system, the enforced schooling system, the everyman-for-himself econom y, the laws against p overty go on and on. Mental hospitals, welfare institutions, “ old folk s hom es” , reform institutions, legal machinery, powers o f welfare officers . . . just grow and grow. The on ly way out o f these problems is to go back to the cause: in this case the lack o f com m unity. O bviously w e should aspire to a com m unity where there is room fo r all people in the com munity, whether they fit into nuclear families

or not, whether they can w o rk or not, and whether they measure up to present sanity and usefulness standards or not.

I am n ot suggesting that w e need never take m edicine, never take an argument to court, never lo ck a man away, and never help a m isfit along. We w ill always have to do things like that from time to time. But we should do them, n o t appoint a class o f profes­ sionals to do them fo r us. That way, our problems o n ly gro w as the ranks o f the professionals grow.

I advocate, both for the individual’s quality o f life in the present society and for the overall im provem ent in our society’s condition, that each o f us should try to (1 ) take up a w a y o f life that naturally brings health, justice, peace and happiness and (2 ) w herever possible do our ow n patch-up jobs.

Bring back fo lk m edicine, com m on knowledge o f m edical matters. Solve our differences o u t o f court, especially in the area o f “ fa m ily and social” law.

Bring back man-to-man justice that doesnt depend on a library o f statutes and an army o f policem en. A n d help out when som eone’ s drunk, terrified, lonely, got to o m any kids, penniless, old, young, exhausted . . . break the social barriers and don t call the “ w e l­ fare” authorities.

I t ’s n ot self-sacrifice. I t ’s self­ enhancing. I t ’ s the individual taking a higher place in the scheme o f things.

Flatting.

IF Y O U are a young unmarried guy thinking o f leaving h om e to liv e inde­ pendently . . . F O R G E T IT !

I ’m one o f the m any unmarried guys lookin g fo r a cheap flat o f m y very own. I go t the idea o f setting up m y ow n little pad w h ile paying w eek ly rent at m y parents.

A n yh o w , m onday m orning comes along and I ’m up at sparrow’s fart, heading fo r the paper shop fo r the local rag. I open it at the page w ith all the flats to let . . .

Oh well, better luck next place.

N e x t stop Charles S ibley Real Estate P ty L td at Dee W hy. A h , there’s a flat in the w in d o w fo r 23 bucks a w eek, fu lly furn, 1 BR , SC, etc, etc.

I ’ll go in and ask the salesman behind the desk if i t ’s taken yet. “ N o , it’s still vacant,” said the b loke lookin g at m e from behind the desk. “ A re you married or single?” I replied, “ Oh, I ’m still single” “ OH SO RRY, THE F L A T S A R E O N L Y F O R M A R R IE D C O U PLE S »»

So I go t up and walked out, dis­ appointed and still w ith ou t a home.

A fte r walking to Brookvale I fou n d another real estate agent: A lan Beard P ty Ltd. I strolled in and asked this worn an if the six or m ore flats in the w in d ow were taken. Her answer was direct and to the point: “ Yes, taken !” she said with ou t batting an eyelid. “ A ll o f them ?” I said. “ Yes, all o f them .”

Then I asked her if the flats in the w in d ow are all taken, w h y then are they still on display? H er reply: “ Oh, w e ’ve got our reasons fo r i t ! ”

So I g o t a b it shitty and I laid on questions to her: “ H o w many single guys com e in lookin g fo r a cheap small fla t?” “ A b o u t 10 o r 12 a month, I can’t be sure.” “ Do you give them a flat or do you just tell them that all flats are taken?” “ That depends on their reference.” “ If a single guy with plen ty o f M O N E Y came in lookin g fo r a flat and his reference was good, w ou ld you give it to him, O R w ou ld you give first choice to a married couple that walked in h alf an hour after him ?” “ Sorry, w e couldnt answer that, w e dont want to com m it ourselves, do w e ?”

O h well, o f f to the hunt again; this tim e LJ H ooker, Mosman, o n ly to receive the same answer. S O R R Y , M A R R IE D C O U PLE S O N L Y .

I said thank you and walked out o f LJ H ookers and on to a bus to town.

T o m y surprise I did manage to find a fe w single flats over the south side, but the o n ly trouble there w ere these BIG C O C K R O A C H E S . Yep, cockroaches so big you could throw a saddle on them.

W ell, I looked all w eek w ithout any luck. So i f any o f you unit or flat owners are reading this, fo r chrissake how about giving us unmarried guys a fair chance?

W H IL E wandering N e w Zealand in the frozen months o f last year, I happened upon a b o o k called The pulse o f life written b y Dane Rudhyar. T h e sub heading “ N e w Dynamics in A s tro lo g y ” had caught m y eye. O n reading the book, I gained the impression that the zodiac houses were first form ulated fro m the seasons or parts thereof, and not as is com m only conceived, b y me at least, from the months o f the calendar.

The author writes of influences such as the day forces and night forces, on the various houses o f the zodiac.

Could it be that the zodiac was first form ulated in the northern hemisphere and was adapted from the seasonal influence to the months or sections o f the months fo r convenience sake?

Could it be that where the seasons differ in their relationship to the calendar months in differen t parts o f the world, so too do the zodiac’ s houses?

In Am erica where the author “ Dane Rudhyar” resides, Cancer is indeed the summer solstice, but here in Australia it is the winter solstice. W ould this, therefore, indicate that what w e in Australia call the Cancer p ortion o f the zodiac’s year be the Capricorn p ortion in reality?

I w rote to the author to pose m y questions, his answer was, though somewhat ambiguous, to agree that if we are dealing with direct forces influence on the earth, then w e may indeed have to vary the zodiac for differen t parts o f the world. H e suggests in part, that i f people o f this land feel strongly enough about the subject, that a study be undertaken to compare people o f Australia or any land where the seasons d iffer, to the houses which correspond to the seasons in which th ey w ere born, o r to be m ore precise the part o f the season they were born in, as opposed to the month o f their birth.

People born in Australia w ou ld simply have to reverse the houses for their subsequent character analysis and comparison to the house form ulated from the season o f their birth.

This being m y first constructive deed since m y return to these shores, I am hoping it will stir up the needed research. I w ould be happy to correspond w ith anyone who could supply the needed energy for such a research. I f w e are to treat the zodiac as an exact science evolving direct forces on the face o f the earth, then such a study must be undertaken.

Meanwhile, w hile I wait fo r response, I am getting a good display o f how zodiac addicted conditionees react when told that their guardian house or whatever is indeed the reverse o f what th ey have know n it.

Whether a human being be­ comes sufficiently open to receive the ideas and give them shape is partly a matter o f age. Somehow being younger - that is between about 16 and 25 - gives an ability to unconsciously decode what’s in the air and re-express it in acces­ sible form. Some o f the great scientific theories were proposed by men and women when they were in their early 20s. Theories like this came at a time when science was on the edge o f the discovery — so much so that the same idea often occurred to peo­ ple at roughly the same time in different parts o f the world. How well those ideas were phrased or made available depended on how effective the person expressing them was.

As with science so with other forms o f creative achievement.

From highwire to armchair Take Dylan or the Beatles. When Tony Palmer began reviewing the lyrics o f the Beatles and used the whole junkshop o f classic music and literary criticism or when A. J. Weberman invented dylanology and produced fractured overwrit­ ten analyses o f Dylan’s songs the interpretations were ridiculed by the authors who were unaware o f any o f the complexities in the first place - they just wrote songs.

But I think both sides were right. I dont think anyone like Dylan knew why he wrote what he did - he put it down and sang it realising it was good and would work. A t the same time a lot o f the things that more perceptive critics extrapolated from their work were there. How they got there didnt depend on any con­ scious act on the part o f the writer but on some sort o f reso­ nance in him to what was being thought and felt by his own age group.

The common factor in this quasi mediumistic creativity is that it occurs much younger than

is generally expected. Society is still extremely dominated by old men (particularly in Australia) whatever the proportions o f youth to age in the population. If you ’re over 25, remember the best periods o f spontaneous creativity — if only in lifestyle — occurred around age 20. Some research sug­ gests that between 18 and 28 our personalities take o ff in spirals o f exploration and innovation and that by 30 we revert to what we were before 16 and 17, although matured and usually more able to cope — this process continues throughout ageing.

That doesnt mean that people over 30 arent creative, it’s just that then it's a different sort o f creativity based on an accretion o f experience, learning and conscious direction. The transition between the two periods is hard and often never made by those who were once brilliant. John Lennon is trying to make that transition and it’s painful to watch. He’ll prob­ ably do it because he’s intelligent and determined but the ideas which flowed so easily into him in

Living in the wrong world ANNA KIST Humanity is asleep Concerned only with what is use­ less Living in a wrong world.

OMEONE said that. The voice o f a mystic out o f the past. That snatch from a timeless poem sits like a still lake in my head. Its wisdom defies reaction. I read it and know its truth so fully that it’s like a heavy stone.

Maybe different words or word combinations affect different people in different ways, but it doesnt matter with this particular verse, just so long as you see something in it. “ Living in a wrong world” . It’s so wrong that you must go insane to escape it.

That is, i f you go by the rules. I tend to cringe from book reviews I stumble on, but if you’ve read this far you may be interested in this book.

Watts spends a lot o f time telling shrinks to get out o f their occidental rut, but it’s a book you can absorb without prior knowl­ edge o f Freud, Jung, zen or V e­ danta. Watts is cut about the dehumanisation o f living in a wrong world. He compares the ways o f liberation from this un­ real world which have been devel­ oped East and West.

I first read the book three or four summers ago in a soft, sunwarmed breeze on an immense, deserted beach at Wilson’s prom­ ontory, Victoria. A good setting for thinking about how one re­ lates to the cosmos.

It was before I knew about mantras, but I started thinking about ego and environment; about how egotistical it was to say that this soft breeze was hitting me. I started exploring different frames o f reference and repeated over and over: “ I ’m hitting the wind.”

Freakout. Instant mantra.

his early 20s have dried up.

In terms o f politics the men or women who come to symbolise political ideas usually do so much later in life. But the principle is the same and is important. Nor­ man Mailer gives the example o f Joe McCarthy who came to em­ body hysterical totalitarian anti communism in the USA. Because McCarthy expressed it so well the idea could be defeated as Mc­ Carthy was ultimately defeated its worst manifestations died with him. However, the paranoid force o f secret police interference which took over the FBI never came out into the open as Hoover was essentially faceless and therefore couldnt be fought and defeated.

The Liberal party in Australia stayed in power fo r 23 years, first because Menzies expressed some­ thing that the electorate felt it believed in, but second because it became a faceless, bland party. It wasnt until its contempt for and alienation from the voters became obvious in the grotesque antics o f Holt and Gorton and the deadness o f McMahon that the voters realis­

ed what they had to protest against and voted in a largely unknown Labor party. Perhaps the problem with politicians is again to do with age - they are simply too old to be sensitive to their constituencies — in a profes sion where there is the greatest need for symbolic heroes.

As with people so with institu­ tions and so with The living dayligh ts.

Daylights will become a great paper if and when it starts print­ ing the as yet unexpressed fan­ tasies, aspirations and political ideals o f a creative group o f peo­ ple. Then it won’t be a question o f what to put in each issue - not “ let’s have an issue about aware­ ness, who do you know who can write about awareness?” . It ’ll be a question o f what to keep out because the material and ideas that come in will be forcing them­ selves on to paper. A ll the great papers and magazines have gone through that period and have un­ fortunately all left it behind. Vil lage voice, Private eye, Rolling stone, Oz, Esquire, New Yorker etc, etc. A t their best readers find in the magazine or paper what they have just started thinking about but havent yet articulated.

The day Daylights ceases to be aware it will really be aware.

Death of a child

I saw a chicken and the chicken said, " D o n t come here o r I'll peck you dead.

So I w ent away to my rum pled bed.

Pulled up th e covers over my head And trie d not to see anymore.

I saw a black cat in th e rain A nd he came inside and he rubbed all wet.

I patted him when he started to purr.

Stroked and dried his fin e dark fu r A nd lay w ith him warm on the bed.

B ut he showed his claws and teeth to me A nd grow led, " T h a t is all yo u deserve to see."

So J q u ic k ly crawled in to my crum pled bed A nd pulled th e sheet and the blankets rig h t over my head A nd trie d not to see anymore.

I saw a tin y thing born one day A nd then saw it stand and then saw it play.

B ut a m other goat bleated, " D o n t stare th a t w a y ."

A nd I q u ic k ly turned and ran away — To m y riffle d bed, to cover my head.

T o cry and say " I'm n o t made th a t w a y ," A nd to know fo r sure T ha t now I co u ld nt see anymore.

N ow I do this A nd now I do th a t A nd I do it well A nd I do it o ff pat.

I laugh all the tim e A nd I know how to please.

M y m other says I'm a changed girl.
