Beach Boys' Love
Beach Boy Mike Love struts in "Little Deuce Coupe" at Saturday night's Beach Bay concert at Allen Field House. The concert, which drew the largest crowd of any event on Long Island since 1970, features a tribute to the band.
Beach Boys' songs great but concert reviews odd
By TIM BRADLEY
Concert reviews are odd creatures. A book or record review can save the reader money by announcing that a new item is either bonus or bow-wow. A concert happens only once and can't be shelved for later use as a book or record can be. If you enjoy concert you already have an opinion, or if you didn't, you have your own reasons.
The reviewer might still be suffering through the burbling aftermath of Halloween night, so that he feels as if the world were a giant percolater with him in
Review
the little glass bubble waiting for the next explosion of his pulse. Did you ever think of
The ionized atmosphere of a not-quoted rainstorm, coupled with the sizzle of wet snow, creates a glistening face, faces the eight anue of scf-fi magic, as if Allen Field House were some galactic station walking out refreshment and snowing into it. And had to wolf down pizzas and such to make it
on time, they were in no mood for the long wait outside while chairs were being set up.
Once inside, they wanted blood, and the warm-up act, the Eddie Boy Band, delivered only water. Their competent rock and roll set got an assertive boo from the audience, who weren't happy to wait longer for the Beach Bows.
A standing, whooping, whistling ovation greeted the stars, and from there, the Beach Boys klituted to a polished all-oilies set to an exhausted, sweat-soaked encore that had the audience bouncing up and down like pistons.
The packed house, with its frezzed clapping and yelling along with Mike Love's between-song jive, turned the evening into a glorious high school pep rally.
No need to list the songs—they all there and with, the exception of "Heroes of War," which is a memorial to Villains," with its pinpoint a capella harmonies, was swallowed up in the echo-wash of the Field House's atrocious sound. It seemed to miss his signals consistently.
That they infuse a decade old with such unrefetted euhlence is testimony to the fact that a new audience was definitely up for a good concert and left the hall upper than ever.
THESE "EXTRAS" have ranged from bits of glass in egg salad sandwiches and a metal washer in a tossed fire to beetles in the oatmeal, according to Dan Kusetzky, chairman of the McCollum Hall Food Committee.
Although residence hall supervisors, residents and the director of food services for residence halls said they hadn't been aware of any major problems, some residents reported that they had been finding foreign objects in their food that they didn't appreciate.

But Kusnetky said yesterday that things were beginning to look better as the result of a meeting Saturday between administrators and the food committee.
"All of us (food committee) felt rather elated after we came out of the meeting because what we wanted to be done was either going to be done or a very good reason why it couldn't be done was given," Kusmetky said.
The meeting was called by J. J. Wilson, director of housing, to discuss complaints that had been given to the food committee by McCollum residents.
Kusnetzky said that he had taken a survey

SenEx says quality of teaching could drop
The quality of teaching at the University of Kansas could drop if the University is denied extra funds, according to Gerhard Zuther, chairman of SenEx.
"This University will not grind to a halt because of a lack of money." Zudher said yesterday. "But I do think we will have an erosion in the quality of our instruction."
A letter protesting the lack of funds was sup-
ported by day by SenEx and will be sent
to Robyn Roberts.
FRANCES HOROWITZ, SenEx member and associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said the letter was an invitation to participate in about the University's lack of funding.
Zuther, also a professor of English, said that effects of underfunding were already being felt in his department. Student-teacher contact is declining because of the shift to online teaching and an increase in course work, which reduces the time available to teachers for research.
"This institution has been seriously un-derturbed," she said. If we start cutting down our emissions, the planet will be better."
A "DEVASTATION of teacher morale" was occurring, he said. The English department has had to borrow from its budget for next year, he said. The department has had to borrow from the following year's budget for several years, he said, because of poor enrollment rates.
**nowitz said that Chancellor Archie R. Dykes had recently written the Board of Trustees for University of Michigan's financial state. In the letter, Dykes said that if the University had been funded at the same general level as it was in 1998, the university would be eligible for about $9 million.**
"The administration has consistently chosen to go with the most conservative estimates," he said. "This has been happening for 10 years."
ZUTHER SAID that the underfunding resulted from this year's unanticipated enrollment increase. He said that if more accurate enrollment estimates had been made, the University would have been prepared.
If more accurate enrollment estimates were impossible, Zuther said, there should be a "legislative cushion"—a provision for new measures after final enrollment is known.
Under such a system, Zuther said, the
David Barclay, president of the McColum senate, said that the food committee, which operates through the senate, had complained that nothing was being done about the problems even after the letters were sent.
Wilson blamed students for the insect problem because they took food trays out of the cafeteria and left them. This attracts more insects, he said.
"I DON'T really consider that letter a complaint," Wilson said, and added that the letter was the only communication he had bad with the food committee.
Grad assistants
He said that hairs found in food were often the students' own.
Wilson said, however, that he had received a copy of a letter to Clara Davenport, food supervision for McColum, Davenport, and Lehmann. He was also sent to Lenoir Edkard, director of food service for residence halls, listed complaints such as cold food, insects, improperly washed dishes and silverware and food poisoning, as well as suggestions for improvement.
Such figures can be misleading because they fail to take into consideration such factors as office hours, preparation and grading time, Kimbrough said.
"We're not prepared to stand up and de-
location the quarters in an equitable half-
time auction."
The survey showed that only one department used a formal procedure for evaluating the performance of its graduate assistant faculty's "back" and informal faculty observation.
"We have exterminators come every month, but that doesn't help because students take food upstairs and leave it," Ekdahl said.
Another possible explanation, she said, is
week than are some half-time assistants,
the study showed.
Kusnetsky said he was happy that the Saturday meeting had been held, but thought that it had been held because administrators feared bad publicity.
Reynolds said there were three possible explanations for the wide range of answers to the questionnaire. First, she said, the ones themselves might have been unclear.
A second explanation is that the broad range of policy differences exists for justifiable reasons, according to the needs of the departments, she said.
However, the GSC questionnaire did not include the three-quarter-time appointment.
"We just talked generally about what we were going to do, but we didn't talk about a lot of these problems they said we have," Davenport said.
Bill Bartscher, AI in mathematics, said he was unaware of any inequities in the math department's policy regarding graduate assistantships.

Wilson said that no concrete decisions had been reached as a result of Saturday's meeting, but that steps were being taken to correct some problems.
All those interviewed had one common complaint: that tuition wasn't included in the plan.
He called the meeting because the question of whether the committee had been properly responded to had been raised, he said.
"We had a very good discussion," said Kusetznyt. "It had great effect and will probably have even greater effects as time goes on."
Pete Gilligan, TA in microbiology, said he had no complaints about his contract, evaluation or teaching load, all of which were exhaled to hin in advance.
THE FRUIT JUICES were less watery, that were more juice flavors, the food was thicker and fresher. And cateria workers were more effective hair coverings, he said. Kunetzyk said that the artificial sweeteners and de-caffeinated drinks out for students who had requested them.

University would return funds if estimates were high, he said.
Zuther said he expected all the money would be released to the University, but it would probably be earned for many expenses, such as increased utility costs.
There already is a surplus of $500,000,
collected from student fees because of this year's enrollment increase. Legislative
need is to spend it.
Several graduate assistants interviewed yesterday said that to their knowledge procedures within their departments were satisfactory.

Zuther said state funding would also be earmarked.
"We've asked the kitchen staff to be more diligent about wearing caps, and we put them on," he said. "We also tables as the students requested," he said. Krometzyk said that he noticed some members of the team were wearing caps.
kept them unwaware of the conditions of graduate assistants elsewhere in the University.
CATFISH BAR & GRILL
"It depends a lot on the department," she also said. "There there should be much more accountability."

"We have more of an uphill fight this year than we have had in other years," Zuther said. Statewide fund requests had multiplied, he said, and cited a Bennett campaign pledge to aid the state's penal system as an example.
Davenport said the hall's budget wasn't large enough to provide as much food, particularly meat, as the students wanted. "AND WE DO have a problem with bugs but we try very hard to control it." Davenport said.

Because of the difficulty in acquiring funds, Zuther said, the University is preparing "the best possible case" for extra funds.
"We haven't had any formal complaints about the food." Wilson said.

ency of graduate assistants to associate

WINTER CONSORT
*Paul Winter has kept the Winter Consort together now through six winter tours and three brilliant, but uncommercial, albums for A&M, and the group plays a full schedule of dates (mostly colleges) each year in the medium price range. But if there were any justice, the Winter Consort would be as big as Santana, Mahavishnu, or Weather Report (to name three other basically instrumental acts). For pure musical skill, I don't think Winter's group can be matched by any other band on the road today with the possible exception of the Mothers of Invention."
