University of Southern California DAILY • TROJAN VOL. LIX LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1967 NO. 53 Mills tells future city problems Congressman Billy Mills has the presence of a man who knows where he stands and how he got there. Last night in a speech on “The Future of the American City," he came across not dynamically, but with a congenial, powerful, pragmatic conviction that instilled confidence in an audience listening to the problems that face the American metropolis. The 38-year-old Negro Congressman. whose district includes USC and the surrounding area, said he saw the future of the American city as one of the major problems of our time. He pointed out that this is a fact clouded by the coverage the news media give the spectacular news. The gush of coverage on Vietnam causes the average listener and reader to lose sight of the problems facing cities. To illustrate his point he asked tlie audience to consider two photographs. the first, a picture of the earth, a view from 250.000 miles in outer space. It was a beautiful, clear delineation of the globe, made possible by our technical advances. This is what we see in the news media. The second was a picture from the same angle, never really examined, magnifying the original picture 500.000 times. It crystallizes into a picture of the major city ghetto, now stagnant, now seething in riots and riot-induced fires. This is the focus of the problem facing America. Mills did not suggest the complete failure of the modern city. He said unparalleled advances have been made in recent years. “But,” Mills said, “our plight makes us inquire further. The problems at the root of the potential city-destruction have not been solved.” He refrained from centering his observations on the race problem, saying that, “given the same set of circumstances — the walled-in. hopeless separation — any group of people would react in the same way Negroes are reacting.” In regard to legislators’ attitude, Mill said he was disgusted. “One of the most amazing things about government is that if something is easy, if it doesn't cost a lot of money, if it doesn’t create a budget problem, then it can’t be done. Government officials seem to glory in creating a backlog.” He appealed for a change in our methods of action. “An urgency now faces American cities,” he said. “Problems can’t be solved in the traditonal ways. We must recruit young people to create ideas and infuse creativity to resolve these problems.” The major problem, he explained, resides in local jurisdiction. If communities want to clean up their alleys and streets, they should find ways to do so. The complicated structure of government cannot always get to these problems when the need arises. TROLIOS TICKETS ON SALE TODAY Tickets for Trolios, an all-student satire, will be on sale today from noon to 5 ptm. at the YWCA. Tickets cost $1 for students. Trolios, which was originally planned as part of last month’s Troy Week, will be held in Bovard Auditorium at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday. DR. CARL CHRISTOL AND DR. FRED KRINSKY The debating duo questioned how much civil disobedience should be tolerated. POLICE BEAT Student assaulted by four youths after seeing date to sorority house By JIM STRAIT One USC student was assaulted and several others were robbed during the past seven days. Robert O. Watson, 922 W. 30th St.. was assaulted last Sunday night as he was walking back from the Row after seeing his date to her sorority house. Four young men jumped him as he walked west on 30th Street between Severance Street and University Avenue. Watson said they were hiding in a driveway that was partially covered by palm trees. They grabbed Watson and pushed him up against a parked car along the street, and formed a semi-circle around him. “Give us what’s in your wallet.” one of them said, according to Watson. Watson said that since they were all smaller and younger than he is, he thought that he could get away. “Hell no,” he said. He thought he heard one of them say, “Let’s beat him up,” as they came at him. One of the robbers crossed in front of Watson and Watson shoved him back into the others and started to run. As he did so. one of the boys on the other side hit him in the head with a blunt instrument. Watson remembers standing dazed. and thinking the robbers were waiting for him to drop so they could take his wallet. But he did not fall. He saw his chance to escape when the teenage assailants started to talk over their next move. He got away and managed to get to his apartment, where some friends called the Student Health Center and police. The cut in his head went down to the skull. Watson says he didn’t even get a headache from it, just eight stitches. After the attack, which was one of a number that were almost identical in description on that same night, the police took Watson to a lineup where he identified one of the suspects. They later showed him mug sfiots in his apartment, where he tentatively identified one of the other assailants. Several robberies were also reported recently. Mrs. Joyce Savage, 1017 W. 36th St., a secretary at USC, was the victim of a burglar who entered her apartment while both she and her husband were at work last Friday, and stole a portable television worth $100, and her engagement ring, valued at $153. Nan E. Hauerwass, 643 W. 28th St., had $46 worth of automobile equipment taken from her car last Saturday. Stephanie Norene and Pam Meich-try, 1109 W. 28th St., had their apartment broken into during the UCLA game, but they didn’t get around to reporting it until last Saturday. Miss Meichtry said that she and her roommate don’t spend much time in the apartment so they didn't really notice anything was missing until just recently. Her father told her to make the report so they could make an insurance claim, she explained. Another interesting item from the last two weeks of crime reports was that in the Row and main apartment area, five out of eight of the cars stolen were Chevrolets. Chevrolets and Volkswagens consistently lead the list of cars robbed or stolen. Two-door Chevies are most often robbed. Campus entertainment suggestions requested The ASSC Entertainment Committee is conducting the following poll to gain an indication of student preferences for its spring concert schedule. * Students should circle the acts they would most enjoy hearing and return the poll to either the box in front of Founders Hall or in front of the Student Union, or to the Student Activities Office in the YWCA.

Is it so important that we should sacrifice our liberty and order?” the negative asked. “Whatever means are necessary, nothing is more important than the moral convictions of the individuals,” the affirmative said. Today's American political system has assuredly not given the populace everything they have demanded. But the public has the right to express their complaints to the government with demonstrations, picketing and other procedures in an orderly fashion. The main question that the affirmative, Dr. Fred Krinsky, and the negative. Dr. Carl Christol, dealt with was how much violence can society sustain ? The debate on civil disobedience was presented by Pi Sigma Alpha yesterday. “The public should form a resistance movement if the problems in society are too great.” Krinsky. chairman of the Political Science Department, said. “People should take the courage to stand forth and be counted if something is amiss in society. They must trumpet their beliefs and reach the hearts of others.” “What is civil disobedience?” Christol, a member of both the political science and law faculties, asked. “Is there a differentiation between peaceful and unpeaceful picketing? “Is there a differentiation between fighting words and moderate words?” Dr. Christol was also concerned with the “why” of civil disobedience. “What is the purpose of such conduct?” he asked. “Are there reasonable alternatives to civil disobedience? How much violence can a city sustain or tolerate?” Dr. Christol did not answer his questions, but used them to raise PROF'S SALARIES INCREASE YEARLY “Since Dr. Topping has been here, faculty salaries have been increased every year, an average of six percent per year,” Dr. Carl Franklin, vice-president of financial affairs, said yesterday. He was replying to a letter by Stanley M. Sorenson in Monday’s paper, which read: “From a reliable source (usually referred to as a professor), here is something to think afout: the last three times tuition has been raised at USC, none of the teachers received an increase in their base salary.” Dr. Franklin said the increase was on an average, since salary boosts are awarded by merit. Some professors, therefore, have received raises up to 10 percent a year, while others might have received no increase over the last nine years if the colleagues in their department did not. recommend an increase for them, he said. PLAY REVIEW Pirandello play called an experiment By PATTI REID “Pretence? Reality? To hell with it all! Never in my life has such a thing happened to me. I’ve lost a whole day over these people, a whole day!” The director, played by Tony Christensen, shrieks at the conclusion of Six Characters In Search of an Author. With house lights fully lit, the audience seated and still chatting amongst themselves, a chair slammed down on stage and it began. The. actors stormed down the aisles from the outside and plopped down in chairs on stage. The actors and actresses of the company are ready to begin the rehearsal on the bare stage. Suddenly the rehearsal is rudely interrupted by the appearance of six morbid characters dressed in black. The sick six utter “We have come here in search of an author. . . ” Luigi Pirandello's play is truly an experiment. It is laughable and tragic at the same time. When the mother faints on stage the real characters begin acting, or living, their drama and the company stops it’s rehearsal and stands back in awe. Each of the six passionate and embittered characters takes a turn at shouting his own sad story. They live the violent scenes in reality while the company stands and laughs in the background. \ Tony Christensen as the director futilely and frustratingly attempts to distort the reality of the happenings and confine them in a dramatic form for his company to play professionally. The fantastic and unusual nature of the play forces the audience to become totally absorbed with trying to make sense out of the illusion, tragedy-reality that the suffering six characters present on stage. Meredith Hencken is frightening in her forceful portrayal of the sexy and bitter stepdaughter. The torment and strife she has for the aloof boy of 20 and also for the father are made vividly and intensely clear in her every move and utterance. The bedroom scene at Madame Pace's was classic and caught the tension of the play in one act. The father and stepdaughter were too convincing in their reliving of the happening. By deliberately insisting that every minute detail be exactly reproduced, in a masochistic way Miss Hencken communicates the depth of the horror of that ugly experience. The attempt of the company to imitate the father and stepdaughter was hilarious. Leading lady Karen Smith was pompous as she strutted around with her poodle and mink. The act showed the farce of the director’s attempt to act out the tragic and real-life dilemma of the characters. The loud cry by the mother echoes the inescapable plight of the family entanglements. Arguments between the father and the director over the fact that the family is real and can’t be made to act are highlights of the play. The play ends with the catastrophe of the child drowning in the well and the loud shot when the son shoots himself. The mother sums up the helplessness of the situation with her cries, “Help-Help,” but the company doesn’t believe the boy is really dead. Pirandello described the play: “Creatures of my spirit, these six were already living a life which was their own and not mine. . . So I let them go.” The play will continue nightly through Saturday. Tickets will be on sale ir 304 Parkview from 1 to 5 p.m. for $1 for the Monday through Thursday performances and $1.50 for the weekend performances. Tickets may be purchased at the door or reservations can be made by calling 746-2703. doubts about the validity of extensive civil disobedience. He agreed with Dr. Krinsky that some civil disobedience — that is, peaceful resistance — is necessary. But Dr. Christol, called the “Christian gentleman” by Dr. Krinsky, wondered if extensive civil disobedience is really necessary in America at this time. The public has certain goals to achieve, he said. “These goals can be portrayed with a certain amount of civil disobedience. but if we go beyond the minimum, we are in grave trouble. “I hope we should be more eloquent in our positions, more enduring in our decisions and in short, make the democratic process work, without too much violence." Dr. Krinsky, who said he believes in civil disobedience, did not say to what extent we should have bloody violence to achieve our goals. He used the words of Ghandi. “Passive resistance to evil will ultimately prevail.” “Civil disobedience is just a means of presenting a certain point of view. ’ Dr. Christol said. Expressing one's view is vital in today's society, he added. But how much civil disobedience? That was left unanswered. Doctor to serve at TB clinic The appointment of Dr. John Procknow as the first Walter Jarvis Barlow professor of chest disease? in the School of Medicine marks another milestone in the career of a distinguished doctor. Formerly an associate professor of medicine at the University of Chicago School of Medicine. Dr. Procknow has concentrated his many teaching clinical and research activities m the’ areas of infectious diseases, preventive medicine and pulmonary disorders. In his most recent appointments, however. Dr. Procknow has continued the long-standing tradition of cooperation between the names Barlow and USC. Dr. Procknow was recently appointed as the new medical director and administrator of Barlow Sanatorium, a USC affiliated hospital founded in 1902 for treatment of tuberculosis. Located in the midst of 23 wooded acres on Stadium Way near Dodger Stadium, the 25-building sanitorium is named for its founder and former dean of the School of Medicine. The Barlow Professorship will be held in the School of Medicine's Department of Medicine. Dr. Fausto Tanzi. also from the University of Chicago, will join the Barlow staff as assistant medical director. He has also been named a senior associate professor of medicine in the School of Medicine. The long tradition of Barlow-USC cooperation extends to an exchange of teaching and consultative services between the two institutions. Dr. C. Richard Smith, clinical professor of pathology and director of the microbacteriology laboratory at the Los Angeles County General Hospital. is also director of the Barlow laboratory. Dr. Anson P. S. Hoyt, emeritus professor of microbiology, heads the sanatorium’s active research department. Dr. Roger Egeberg, dean of the School of Medicine, also serves on the Barlow Board of Trustees. USC faculty members in various medical specialties serve as a consulting staff for the sanatorium, and both Dr. Procknow and Dr. Tanzi will be participating in School of Medicine teaching programs. Dr. Procknow has also indicated he hopes to arrange for some medical student, intern and resident training to be conducted at Barlow. At a recent meeting of Barlow's trustees. Dr. Procknow outlined his recommendations for expanding th'’ use of the facility to include t1-" treatment and rehabilitation of r>a? ents with chronic respiratory dis^,’ ses such as emphysema and bronchitis. though it will continue to I
