recognition. As a result the drift
toward the arena of equals by the
"Super Powers" has ilot been recognized by these two maj or powers of
past international politics. To establish precedence of this Schlesinger
cited the Vietnam War as a failure
by the United States and in Czechoslovakia by the Soviet Union as
positive notice to each that they
are coming down to equal level
with most of the world's independent countries. This failure to
recognize new historical presence
may in the future lead to the demise of the powers. He feels that it
is imperative for the United States
to accept fact and act accordingly
which is to suggest ending the Vietnam War , removal of American
military bases abroad and to create
a feeling of harmony between the
nations of the world. Schlesinger
-feels that only by such actions will
the United State s be able to conti nue as a member of a fast changing world.
At the finish of the lecture Mr.

Adam 's App le

by allan maurer
A quick look around this page
may bring a pertinent question to
mind; why all this on one film, especially a science fiction film? The
same question would arise in the
mind of anyone who has surveyed
the barage of articles, reviews, discussions, etc. on 2001 that have appeared in the best magazines and
papers (Saturday Review, Cinema,
The New York Times, Variety), the
TV and radio talk shows, or the
wake of comment on 2001 among
sophisticated filmgoers , especially
college students and professors.

over 2001 are rather simple; first,
science (speculative) fiction is coming of age and is accepted among
the educated. Notice the critical
praise that has accompanied novels
such as Naked Lunch, Flowers for
Algernon, and films such as Farienheit 451, Planet of the Apes, and
Fantastic Voyage. Second, as a film ,
2001 is no cheap monster thriller;
its budget was around $10 million;
its science is based on research and
cogent speculation. 2001 represents
the firm experience, a symbolic interpretation of man's past and future, open to individual interpretations as varied as human thought
can be. Third, 2001 deals with
topics that contemporary intellectuals have been concerned with
for the past few years, anthropology, primatology, and their relation
to violence. Robert Ardrey's best
sellers, African Genesis and The
Territorial Imperative; Desmond
Morris' The Naked Ape; and Konrad Lorenz's On Aggression, have
all contributed to and capitalized
on the current intellectual hunger
for statistics and facts concerning
man's origins, instincts, direction,
and the force of evolution. Is it any
wonder then, that an artistic (I include the work of the director, author , actors, photographers, etc. as
within this term) interpretation of
man's origins, direction etc., shou ld
have so great an impact and receive
so much attention?
The interpretation of man's future offered by Kubrick (the director) and company is dominated by
the motif of the organic nature of
technology, and the biology of the
machine. The actors are the most
mechanical part of the film , Hal
9000, a computer, the most human.
Kubrick has captured the romance
of technology with his pure white
spacecraft waltzing to the music of
Johann Strauss, in the ice blue maj esty of space, the grace of weightlessn ess at Zero G, and the lush
spacecraft interiors of crimson, hot
pi n k , and white. He has also captured the mechanical, far removed
from—or not so far removed from
—the ape side of man.
In the final analysis, the originality of the film will leave some
with a sensation of utter chaos, but
those who choose to exercise their
imaginations will undergo an intellectual experience, that is, t hey
will think about it.

2001
IS

HERE

Not Vienna: Outer Spac e

The camera zooms in on couples
waltzing in a grand ballroom. The
music is Johann Strauss's "On the
Beautiful Blue Danube." Instantly
the viewer knows that the forthcoming scene is set in Vienna. It is
a visual-aural relationship that filmmakers have depended on for
years.
Stanley Kubrick has changed this
stereotype, and the image that the
"Blue Danube" waltz may conjure
up from now on is not one of twirling Viennese dancers but of interplanetary travel. The producer has
used the music for portions of his
fil m "2001: A Space Odyssey." It
accompanies the flight of an earth
rocket, bearing travelers first to a
"spaceport" and then to the moon.
The music actually works very well ,
particularly during the waltz's introduction, in which Strauss suggests the flowing of the river. The
rocket's weightless glide through
space finds a charming aural counterpart here.
The film makes use of two other
works in traditional style. The
opening measures of Richard
Strauss's "Also Sprach Zarathustra" accompany the opening of the

Ed. Note: 2001 is very much
Stanley Kubrick's fil m. A glance at
his thoughts on the film can be enlightening as to the interpretation
the people who made it intended
the viewer to take. The following
interview with Kubrick appeared in
the New York Times.
Question : The opening sequence
of 2001 shows an ape-man at the
dawn of man's existence learning
to use obj ects as weapons. He
throws a bone-weapon in the air
and it comes down as an orbiting
spacecraft in the 2001 A.D. What's
the connection?
Answer: The link is very close,
and the time period is really very
short. The difference between the
bone—as a weapon and the spacecraft is not enormous , on an emotional level. Man 's whole brain has
developed from the use of the
weapon-tool. It's the evolutionary
watershed of natura l selection.
Shaw said the man 's heart is in his
weapons, and it's perfectly true.
There always has been this fantastic love of the weapon. It's simply an observable fact that all of
man's technology grew out of his
discovery of the weapon-tool.
Question: One of the newspaper
critics thought that in order to get
across a philosophical viewpoint
you needed more words than you
used.
Answer: This, of course, is part
of the word-oriented reviewe r psychology. I don't have the slightest
doubt that to tell a story like this,
you couldn 't do it with words.
There aro only 48 minutes of dialogue scenes in the film , and 113 of

film. The ominous buzz in the bass,
the dramatic brass fanfare, the tremendous fortissimo chord for full
orchestra and organ presumably
describe the cosmic events to come.
The same musical sequence attends
the picture's final image, the appearance of the "Star Child ," another portent of the future.
Then, the Adagio from Khatchaturian's Suite No. 2 from his
"Gayne" ballet rather mournfully
describes the loneliness of the longest-distance runner, the astronaut
who solitarily circles the rocket's
exercise track.
Works by the avant-garde composer Gyorgy Ligeti make up the
rest of the music used in the film.
His Requiem for soprano, mezzosoprano, two mixed choirs and orchestr a; "Lux Aeterna ," for chorus,
and "Atmosphere ," for orchestra,
with their wailing and electroniclike sounds are suitably mystical
(for the prehistoric monolith that
has religious connotations) and futuristic (for the psychedelic experience of flying throu gh multicolored
galaxies — a bit like swimming
through a solution for batikdyeing) .

Most of the sporadic power and
sly humor of 2001: A SPACE
ODYSSEY derive from a contrast
in scale. On the one hand .we have
the universe; that takes a pretty
big hand. On the other we have
man, a recently risen ex-ape in a
dinky little rocket ship. Somewhere
between earth and* Jupiter, though,
producer-director Stanley Kubrick
gets- confused about the proper
scale of things himself. His potentially maj estic myth about man 's
first encounter with a higher life
form than his own dwindles into a
whimsical space pperetta, then
frantically inflates itself again for
a surreal climax in which the imagery is just obscure enough to be
annoying, just precise enough to be
*
banal..
First Of Four
The first of the film 's four movements deals with man 's prehistoric
debut. It is as outrageous, and entertaining as anything in "Planet
of the Apes," but much more engrossing. Cutting constantly between real apes and actors (or dancers ) in unbelievably convincing
anthropoid outfits , Kubrick establishes the fantasy base of his myth
with the magical appearance of a
monolithic slab in the apes' midst.
They touch it, dance around it,
worship it. The sequence ends with
a scene in which one of our founding fathers picks up a bone , beats
a rival into ape-steak tartare with
it and becomes the first animal on
earth to use a tool .
In a lyrical orbital roundelay, a
rocket ship from eart h takos up tho
same rotational rate as the space
station it will enter. Once again , as
in "Dr. Strangclove ," machines cop-

One of the mos£ dramaticsequences in Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A
SPACE ODYSSEY showjs something never before depicted on the
screen—the reactions of an astronnut when His body is exposed \o
the vacuum of outer space.
This sequence , which is certain
to arouse controversy, is firmly
based on some of the latest scientific researches in the field of space
medicine. U.S. Air Force doctors,
working with dogs and chimpanzees, have now shown that these
animals can .survive in a vacuum
for relatively long periods—up to
two 'minutes. If they are repressurized before the end of thisv time
thoy survive without any permanent damage. Although these experiments have not yet included
humans, it seems likely that men
can survive at least equally as well.
The situation will certainly arise
in space, sooner or later, when an
astronaut in a disabled aircraft has
to transfer between two spacecraft
in close contact and to slam the door
of the air Jock behind him. It may
not be a pleasant experience. There
would probably be a sensation of
intense cold. However, if this was
the only way of saving his life, any
astronaut would be prepared to accept the danger and discomfort involved—just as men trapped in a
sunken submarine make emergency
ascents to the surface.
Therefore the space exposure sequence , although startling at first
sight , is firmly based on up-to-theminute scientific knowledge. It foreshadows an event which is bound
to take place in the not-too-distant
future.

no dialogue. There are certain
areas of feeling and reality—or unreality or innermost yearning,
whatever you want to call it—
which are notably inaccessible to
words. Music can get into these
areas. Painting can get into them.
Non-verbal forms of expression
can. But words are a terrible
straight-j acket. It's interesting how
many prisoners of that straightj acket resent its being loosened or
laKcn on.

There's a side to the human personality that somehow senses that
wherever the cosmic truth may
lie , it doesn't lie in A. B. C. D. It
lies somewhere in the mysterious,
unknowable aspects of thought and
life and experience. Man has always responded to it. Religion ,
mythology, allegories — it's always
been one of the most responsive
chords in man. With rationalism,
modem man has tried to eliminate
it , and successfully dealt some
pretty jarring blows to religion. In
a sense, what's happening now in
films and in popular music is a reaction to the stifling limitations of
rationalism. One wants to break out
of the clearly argueablc, demonstrable things which really aro not
very useful of inspiring, not does
one even sense any enormous truth
in them.
Question: Hal, the computer-protagonist of 2001, seems almost human while the actors seem to be
models of dispassionate efficiency.
Is one of the themes that as computers become more like men, men
become more like computers?
Answer: No.

THE HUSKY SPORTS SCOPE

MIKJS w

by Bob Schultz
The Pennsylvania State Colleges
Athletic Confe rence rang out the
new year with a new name. The
Conference now is known as the
Pennsylvania Conference.
Also, seven new teams, including
BSC, have j oined the Eastern College Athletic Confe rence. This
brings the total from the Pa. Conference to 10.
Next year every league football
game will be officiated by 5 officials.
The number was previously left up
to the discretion of the individual
colleges.
Indiana Univ. (Pa.) Athletic Director Chuck Kla using stated that
they would welcome re-entry into
the Pennsylvania Conference. He
said that j oining the Conference
would ease their scheduling problems and balance the two divisions
, at 7 teams each.
Cheyney and Edinboro who were
picked to lead the Eastern and
Western divisions, respectively,
have not disappointed their supporters. Cheyney is rolling along
with a 4-0 mark to lead the East
and Edinboro has an identical 4-0
record for Western supremacy.
The big surprise in basketball
has been the showing of West
Chester. The Rams were picked to
finish last in the East, but are now
in second place with a 3-1 mark.
Their only loss was to Kutztown by
an 85-75 margin.
Top scorer in the league is Frank
Smith of Edinboro who is h itting at
a 30.0 points a game clip. Mark
Yanchek is the Huskies top scorer

Oregon State handed defending
Pennsylvania Conference champion
East Stroudsburg its first wrestling
defeat after four dual meet wins,
22-9. The loss, also broke a 10-0
mark at home over two seasons.
In this year's wrestling poll , the
Huskies ranked sixth in the NAIA.
Lock Haven was picked fifth. Clarion (8-0 ) is off to the best start
of the 12 conference teams. Robert
Bu bb's matmen won 62 of their
first 66 bouts and scored an amazing 240 out of a possible 250 points.
The Huskies now have 7 remaining contests and are expected to
meet rough competition in 5 of
these contests. Wayne Heim has
been picked as an additional CoCaptain of the wrestling team. Eon
Russo had been captain of the
team, but Wayne's leadership qualities and fine wrestling caused
Coach Houk to pick him as a CoCaptain.
The Huskies still have three
wrestlers in the unbeaten ranks.
Keith Taylor (115), Wayne Heim
(123) , and Ron Russo (137) have
given the Huskies an early lead in
every match this year. Wayne
Smythe (130) was undefeated until the Oswego match.
