Many Oberlin bikes editori- alize with such opin- ions as: SAVE THE WHALES, BIKES- NOT-BOMBS, STOP THE ARMS RACE.

Arlo Guthrie came to Oberlin for a solo concert and turned a sold-out Finney Chapel into a living room full of friends and companions. His performance. the vehicle for his emotions and thoughts. revealed him to be both reflective and reflexive looking into the future with hope and retaining ties with the past thiough honest judgement. While recognizing the nostalgia in his famous ballad tlAl- ieels Restaurantll, Mr. Guthrie was able to connect the concerns that fostered the song with those that many bring to the current crisis in Central America. Reflexivelyt Mr. Guthrie revealed that he is not a firebrand extremist. but rather an honest and fair thinker. Introducing the requested, touching. biographical song llVictor Jaral't he cautioned those ofsimilar political persuasions not to be too tough on vice presiden- tial candidate Dan Quayle, recognizing that he himselfsimilarly avoided the selective service system by enrolling in college. Throughout the evening his music was adept, his timing engaging. and his humor warmt immediate and personal. His hot rendition of Key to the Highway brought many a whoop, his program of new songs and old favorites complimented each other gracefully, and his talk a often revealing personal relations with his family and friends such as Bob Dylan Ae invited the audience warmly into his life. Mr. Guthriels warmth continued after the show as I interviewed him: Q: What do you think ofthe current revival offolk music and some of its new exponents such as Suzanne Vega and Tracy Chapman? AG:We11,Ithinkthings are cyclical. That is, twenty years ago there was a time when people were willing to hear things in and through music that they hadnlt before. I think were coming into a period like that once again... though not all the people you mentioned I feel are actually saying anything. Q: How do you choose a song for your repertoire? AG: Well, its got to be able to get inside me... We got to believe it. With a smile, patience, and consideration, Mr. Guthrie answered these and other questions. Dressed in jeans, a navy blue feed cap, and sporting a sizeable ponytail and a sharp goatee, Arlo soon slipped into the crowd of fans that had gathered around his tour bus. Q: What do you think of Oberlin? AG: Oh, I love it here! HENRY BUTLER. a R 8: B artist from New Orleans. played a relaxing concert at Finney in September. A pia- nist. vocalist, and composer, Butler draws on a variety of sources for his music: jazz. blues. gospel, classical, and non-Western music. Sightless since birth, Butler began his serious musical training when he was eight. at the Louisiana State School for the Blind. Continuing his schooling in music. he earned a BMA and MMA in vocal music. Butler has released two albums to date. He feels that his music is an act of intuitive expression: th0 one person has a lock or monopoly on music. Each person has his or her corner on intuition. After all, life has unveiled for all of us very different experiences. Its easy to get hooked on materialistic, objective considerations of art without recognizing the source. It may be that therels only one source. That should give you a pause -where is it. do we have any of that within us?

Their music has been described as a unique mix of blue grass, swing, pop, jazz and world musics, using piano, mando- lin, violin, acoustic guitar, fretless electric bass guitar, steel drum, synthesizer and banjo. So what kind of mu- sic do they play? Distinctive, to say the least. As one student put it, ttThey were real cool, man? What more can you say? 149 Old Obies gathered with current seniors at the ALUMNI PIC- NIC, as part of the alumni council meeting held on September 17, 1988. The council attended workshops and presentations, dis- cussed racism and the curriculum, and made plans to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the alumni association during Commence- ment 1989. One enthusiastic senior said, iiThe picnic was a great opportunity to discuss important issues involving todayis Oberlin with former Obies. And donit forget the great foodebrownies, chicken, and of course veggie shiskebobs. Obies love to argue, so hereis another side of the story, tiAll the alumni sat on one side of Tappan Square and the seniors on the other.

It was the first of a lecture series titled llThe Place of Science in Public Policy. Bloch ripped into the US. government for failing to support basic research, thus allowing other countries to surge ahead in international economic competi- tion. He called for improvement of undergraduate education in science and technology through collaboration with industry and the government. Even Oberlin. which was ranked first in science of liberal arts colleges last year, was not safe from criticism; Bloch pointed out that improvements can always be made in education. All science majors tespecially those in CHEM 3l7l should be made aware of this manls name. This is the guy you have to impress if you want $$$ to go to graduate school SECOND CITY: The Second City Na- tional Touring Company, an improvisa- tional comedy group from Chicago, vis- ited Oberlin Sept 3. They presented a series of short bizarre skits which were sometimes funny, but other times too morbid to be amusing. There were mixed reactions, not unusual at Oberlin, but most people enjoyed the shooting of the morning person, the immature doctors looking up body parts in the dictionary, and the series of freeze improvs. The group responded well to the infamous Oberlin hiss, slapping their hands in the air on the pretense that an annoying mosquito was on stage. Past members of this group include Joan Rivers, John Candy, and Dan Akroyd. Who knows? Maybe we saw the next Dan Akroyd. Of course, maybe we didnt. 154 SENATOR WILLIAM PROXMIRE: Senator William Proxmire of Wisconsin gave a talk entitled ttPolitics and Science: Strange Bedfel- lowsiw as part of the Oberlin College Distinguished Lecture Series. He spoke on Americais role in the space program and answered a barrage of questions from students. Proxmire is the author of Uncle Sam, Last 0fthe Big Time Spenders and The Fleecing ofAmerica, both of which discussed excessive government spending. He is most famous for accepting no campaign contributions and spending only $145.10 on his last campaign tto send back contributionsl. KOKO TAYLOR: Koko Taylor, the 11Queen of the Bluesf gave Oberlin a concert in November. Her style and rich voice had the audience Clapping along. Taylor began singing in the fields of her sharecropper fathefs farm. She grew up as one of six children on a cotton farm in Memphis, Tennessee. She and her siblings sang the blues in the fields, and the Gospel on Sunday. Times were difficult and singing was Taylofs escape from the harsh reality of farm life. Taylor began recording in 1965. Since 1972 she has toured with her band, the Blues Machine. To date she has received five Grammy nominations and the 1984 Grammy award for the Best Blues Record. In 1989 she plans to return to the recording studio and cut a new album. DUTCHMAN: Amiri Barakaas powerful play Dutchman ran Nov. 2-5 in Little Theater.

Lshowing us that walking on air can actually be done. In the late 705. the leader of this dance group.

Using such objects :15 trapezes. a 15 ft. scuffo ing and mid-uir harnesses. Streb and her com- pany. Ringside. took to the s y in their search for the perfect dance, Through a group of four pieces. Airlinesn. t'Airymves . wMidair . and Flouti collectively called Airwork . the group strove to make each movement the purest possible, In other words, the movement consisted of only itself; there was no extraneous movement or sound. T emphasi7c this. Streb and company refrained from using any music during the dances. Consequently the only sounds heard were from the central movements of the dance. The lack of music alto allowed the dance move- ments t0 follow their own timing. not the specified timing of someone elseis music. Sponsored by the Theater and Dance Program this dance performance was unlike any other seen at Oberlinr Keep in mind. though. that this was done by professionals vdonit try this at home, kids. FOLK FESTIVAL: Both old and young folks showed up for this event. Although some were more interested in their sur- roundings than in the music, there were many groups and much variety, from du- ets t0 4 and 5-part harmony. Sounds ranged from those heard in France and Austria to bluegrass. The instruments, from banjos and guitars to an actual dou- ble bass, made college and con students alike feel right at home. Even the weath- er was agreeable and many Obies showed up just to see the Tappan Square Band- stand actually in use -even a cynical ex- cuse gets you out of the library or prac- tice room. Ah...Ober1in ingenuity. '- MVWMWWMA' CHIEF JAKE SWAMP planted a sapling twith the Oberlin administrations and ground crews approvali somewhere behind Baldwin.

ROBIN FLOWER AND LIBBY MCLAREN gave a con- cert at the Cat in the Cream the evening of Nov. 4. Flower, playing an electric mandolin, and McLaren tvocals and key- boardi managed to keep the crowds of Oberlin students entertained for over two hours. Flower is also known for her interest and popularity in both Womenis Music and New Acoustic Music. Their sound has been known to range from pop womenis music to new age acoustic music. That about covers the Oberlin students need for variety.

Eddie pursues May across the country to a motel room in the Mojave Desert, determined to get her baCk--by force, if necessary. F001 For Love was given top billing in a paired presentation with another Sam Shepard play, The Sad Lament of Pecos Bill on the Eve of Killing His Wife. As was revealed in the Oberlin productions, She- pardis plays often depict an American West peopled with disturbing and realistic characterst and lay bare the emotions which drive them. THE OBERTONES AND COLUMBIA KINGSMEN: Last year the founding members of the Obertones all graduated. What was to become of the group? Well, the Obertones came back with a majority of new members, but the same sharp-looking tuxedoes and songs. This time they also plugged their $6.00 tape, tlTone Deft'l tthis is NOT an ady which contains a selection of audience favorites recorded last spring. Obertone alumni rejoined the group for a rendition of llSilhouettesfl Some of us in the audience wondered how recent grads could afford to return to Oberlin for one songl. Anyway. the Columbia Kingsmen traveled all the way from New York City to give an impressive opening performance. Their mixture of humor and music was a hard act for the Obertones to follow, but the audience rallied for the home team. The Obertones have gone from limited performances in Wilder Main Space to selling out Finney as their popularity has increased. NOTHING BUT TREBLE: This female a capella group started in l985.and has gone from being a cutesy opening act for the Obertones to rivaling their male counterparts. The fall performance marked their first time starring in Finney, a definite sign of their increasing popularity. Another mark of success was their new outfits, matching black pantsuits. tTo sound good, youlve gotta look good. That way the audience may just look at the neat costumes and ignore anything off-keyl. Nothing But Treble was back with a new look, but had the same fine resonant voices; they didnlt have to worry about looking good. because they sounded just fine. Appearing with NET was a group from Swarthmore. Sixteen Feett minus two. so in the picture there are only 14 feet plus a pair of loafers, or in other words 7 guys and a pair of shoes 16! ADOLPHO CALERO Perhaps the most controversial event of first semester was Adolpho Calerois appearance on campus. Sponsored by the Oberlin College Republicans, his speech was pre- ceded by several weeks of heated debate on campus, re- vealing strong feelings both in favor of and opposing his visit. Many students, of the opinion that Calero was re- sponsible for mass torturing and killing, were outraged that he was allowed to come to campus to speak, and in addition was paid $4500 to do so. Others defended Ca- lerois visit, saying that he had to be granted the right of free speech and that Oberlin needed to be open even to people with whom students disagree. The day of Calerois arrival was filled with protest. A rally was held outside Wilder Hall. beginning at about 4:30 and lasting almost two hours. Songs about peace were sung and speeches were given by both students and facul- ty, denouncing Calero and the Contras, as well as US. intervention in Nicaragua. Many students carried signs opposing Calerois visit. The protest continued outside Finney in the evening. as students again marched and carried signs displaying anti- Caiero messages. Television news teams were present at both ralliest filming the protest activity surrounding Ca- lerois appearance. The crowd was also filled with students who had come to hear Calero speak. both Contra support- ers and those who simply wanted to hear Calerois view- point on the situation in Nicaragua. When Calero finally did speak tafter much noisy chant- ing by the audiencey, it was amid cries of protest and angry, shouted retorts to much of what he said. He spoke. as expected, primarily against the Sandinistas and what they have done during their time in power. Despite the strong opposition to his visit, Calero was allowed to come to campus and give his speech. When it was over, the issue gradually faded from the forefront of attention. It will. however, be remembered. FRED SMALL: Folk singerrsongwriter Fred Small was one of the first aets to perform in the fall of 1988. He appeared during orientation week tAugust 30. 19829 which was too early for us to send a photographer or remember what hap- pened. But we do know that he definitely played his guitar and sang. An old Oberlin favorites Small was warmly greeted by the audience. For the umpteenth time. he performed Ttlim a Big Italian Lady? However. we believe he is not of Italian descent. Small is renowned tin Oberlin anywayT for his social eommentary-type songs in the vein of Pete Seeger and Tom Paxton...but heis younger. 163 AIRJAZZ: This amazing trio combined dance. jug- gling. and comcdi for an entertaining evening L11 Finncy 1001. 29. 1988i.

TOSHI REAGON: Political folk singer Toshi Reagon gave her first Oberlin perfor- mance on October 1, 1988 in Finney Chapel. She has per- formed in womenls music festivals around the country with her unique combination of blues, folk, and rock mu- sic. She quickly developed a rapport with the audience with her humorous, yet sin- cere discussions of love, rac- ism, and other Oberlin-type issues. The song selections ranged from soft ballads to a rendition of Def Leppardls lleromaniaT SERGEI KURIOKHIN: You walk into Finney Chapel. and see among the instru- ments onstage a string quartet. saws, a Ja- vanese gamelan. a synthesizer ensemble. masses of bass guitars. and an accordian. You are totally bewildered...and then the confusion clears: it can only be the outra- geous Soviet performance artist and com- poser Sergei Kuriokhin. Until recently. Kuriokhin was a popular. but llunofficial artist in the USSR; now hels touring the US. His November concertiwhich he con- ducted with his arms. legs. and leapsifea- tured an innovative gathering of instru- ments and voices in pieces such as llEine Kleine Nachtmusik. as well as vocal rendi- tions of such classics as ltAmazing Grace and an aria from The Barber of Seville. llOberlin is the only place in the US where Kuriokhin will do the thing he is best known for in the USSR 7 deploying massive and unbelievably varied forces into a unified, erazy...musical spectacle. said associate professor of Music Theory and Technology Conrad Cummings. President S. Frederick Starr commented that Kuriokhin is lleither a genius. a charmingly gifted nut, or bothfl In any case, the musician certainly brought a new sound to Finneyis hallowed hall. Up with innovation. THE COLORED MUSEUM: Oberlin Theater Ttbroke out ofa white Shell with the refreshing production of The Colored Museum. George WoIFs 1985 play opened at the Little Theater December 9-11, and was a resounding success. The exhibit included such pieces as htCooking with Aunt Ethelf tHairpiecesf iTMiss Roj, and iTThe Last Mamma-On-The-Couch Play.v The eleven scenes skillfully exposed the limitations of traditional black theater while eliciting much laughter.

CUMMINGS ENSEMBLE: In early October the Cummings Ensemble performed a stimulating con- cert in Finney. Associate Music Theory professor Conrad Cummings music was inspired by popular sex manuals of the 1950's. The works. entitled Posi- tions 1956 and Insertionst were written while Cum- mings was on sabbatical last year. Cummings de- scribed the manuals as ttvery clinical. scientific nothing like the 60s or 70s manuals which are very sensitive and hip! He added that itthey're rather funny to read now. but theyire also indicative of how recently thoughts about relationships were differ- ent? The two pieces have been performed in New York City by the Cummings Ensemble, which the composer created for the express purpose of per- forming his works. CONGRESSMAN PEASE: A group ofabout fifteen students attended an informal get- togcthcr with Congressman Don Pease and his wife Jeanne. The two visited Oberlin as part of the Marlin W. Butts Gucstship. whose goal is to bring people hyoung and young of heart to meet students on a less formal level than they would in an academic setting. The topic ofthc formal lecture in Wilder was thMelba Toast and Cream of Wheat: Wheres the Spice in the 1988 Elections? , in which Mr. Pease made local as well as national compari- sons.

LADYSMITH BLACK MAMBAZO: Performing before a sellout crowd in Finney Chapel November 5t Ladysmith Black Mambazois spine-tingling a capella harmonies and exuberant soft-shoe routines reached out to the psyched-up crowd and turned the Oberlin audience into friends. Ludysmithis sound is known as icathamiyai uthe stalking 21p- prouch in Zulur wzmd is derived from traditional mission hymns and the songs of migrant workers. shMumbuzoii means hhknife'i in Zulu; htLadysmithii is the groupis home township in South Africa. Although very well-known in South Africa. they first became popular in the US in 1986 after singer Paul Simon invited them to collaborate on his iiGracelandH album. Their concert combined amazing music with the happy feeling that these guys are really having a lot of fun. HENRY THREADGILL SEXTET: On October 8 the Henry Threadgill Sextet hit the Oberlin scene. The sextetis avante-garde music enraptured the audience as two drummers. a cellist. a guitarist. a bassist. and Threadgill playing saxi clarinet. and Hute filled Finney with intense, discordant and disharmonious music. To date the sextet has released two albums. This concert also marked the fall premiere of the Oberlin Jazz Ensemble. CINDERS: Cinders is a play about a film about a play. If that isnt confusing enough. ask Oberlin audiences what they made of the ending! The play was performed on Oberlinis main stage December 1-3, under the direction of Jane Armitage. Written by Polish playwright Janusz Glowacki. Cinders is about an oppressive girls' reform school and its production of Cinderella. Their play is being filmed by an exploitative documen- tary director, who does all he can to get the girls to reveal their lives of fear and abuse. Armitage made good use ofa mostly-bare stage and an imposing movable wall to create a surrealistic and foreboding atmosphere which well-suited the play. Cinders was selected for inclusion in the American College Theater Festival Region 111 East compe- tition, which was held at Indiana University at South Bend January 4-7. LOUIS STOKES: On Halloween at noon. Congressperson Louis Stokes held a Democratic rally at First Church. The rally began with a performance by the group Voices for Christ, after which Congressperson Don Pease introduced Reverend Fred Steen. Steen then introduced Stokes. Beyond the usual lauding of the American system of government, Stokes declassified an official decision from the lran-Contra panel concerning US. actions with General Noriega of Panama. Some students were disappointed that Stokes iiwasnit radical enough? Stokes has been a member of Congress for twenty years.
