PADS IWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURD ARTS and LETTERS By Jeffrey Chase Electronic Musical Mix Meader Attacks 'Misleading' Labelling on Key Measures CANDIDATE PROFILE: Urges Fair SGC Evaluation 1 Mario Davidovsky is a bright young composer who, after only four years of study' in his. spe- cialty - electronic musical com- position-has become a leader in his field. Davidovsky, assistant director of the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Laboratory in New York City, is deeply concerned with the philosophical implications of his art-the composition of music for electronic sounds wedded to con- ventional instrumentations. Visual Appeal Because a stage has a cultural connotation, -,avidovsky said, people like to see something hap- pen on it. It is ridiculous for concerts of just electronic music to be performed in a concert hall, "Who wants to watch a tape re- corder spin around and around for a couple of hours?" he asked. "My. music joins the forces of electronic sound and the living performer," Davidovsky explained. He uses electronic sounds such as a tape recorder as' a musical in- strument, not as background mu- sic to live music. "As a consequence of electronic music, I can' extend my musical thinking and can enrich a live ensemble," the composer said. "Performance of my works in- volves both the contemporary as- pect of electronic sounds and the, lovely presence of direct, live com- munication." Coherent Performance The greatest problem in com- posing my music is achieving both pitch and rhythmic 'Coherence, Davidovsky said. Campus Prof. Alexander H. Smith of the botany department, director of The University herbarium, and author of the definitive book, "The Mushroom Hunter's Field Guide," will direct additional research in mushrooms with the support of a $20,600 grant from the National Science Foundation. The three-: year research period will be de- voted to "Study in Culture of Species, of Pluteus from a Taxo- nomic Viewpoint." S * * 1 SATURDAY, OCT.10 Because of the human element, live performers always fluctuate, albeityminutely, in rhythmic reg- ularity and pitch accuracy;' this is usually unnoticed by the audience, he said. But electronic sound is consistent both in rhythm and pitch. Therefore, during a per- formance the audience can fre- quently tell that the electronic and live aspects are not always together, Davidovsky explained. "My scores have to include built-in regulation to prevent such incongruities," he added. Subtle Influences' Davidovsky doesn't compose in a totally organized or totally serial fashion. He said that no matter how much intellectual control a omposer has over his material, it would somehowbe naive to accept the idea that. no other levels of his personality have a strong influ- ence in the musical choice he takes. "This is why I personally don't try to be totally organized," David- ovsky said. During the music school's 1964 Contemporary Music Festival, Davidovsky's "Synchronisms No. 1" for flute and electronic sounds was performed. Yesterday, at the Composers' Forum, his "Syn- chronisms No. 2" for flute, clar- inet,'violin, cello and electronic sounds received its Ann, Arbor premier. This work, commissioned by the Fromm Foundation, was first presented last summer at Tanglewood. Teaching Davidovsky, who is spending the fall semester at the University to work with interested music school faculty in the composition of elec- 'tronic music, ,will be one of two representatives from his native Argentina at the International Festival in Spain later this month. Davidovsky said that artistic' expression in general came about as an effort of man to communi- ORGANIZATION l4 NOTICES By ROBERT BENDELOW Speaking before a meeting of the Young Republicans recently, Representative George Meader at- tacked what he called "misleading labelling of measures in order to hide unpleasant facts from the public." Programs such as the "war on poverty," which have nice sound- ing names and are therefore ac- ceptable, would not be passed if the public was shown the actual steps to be taken, Meader said. He attacked decisions of the Supreme Court which he called "a threat to our system of govern- ment." The Supreme Court's re- cent decisions "overturning" state constitutions and "intruding in the realm of the legislative branch of the government" caused Meader to "fear for the country." He said that the three power system of government is being threatened by this experience. The interference of the Supreme Court strains the relations between the legislative and judiciary branches of the government and between the federal and state governments, Meader said. He stressed that this is not being publicised and shown to the people in the same light as are those things favored by the ad-- ministration. To help alleviate these alleged interferences of the Supreme Court, Meaded suggested a blue EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the ; fourth in a series of six articlesr giving sketches of the opinions and backgrounds of the candidates cur- rently running for Student Govern- 8 ment Council. By KAREN KENAHf "Student Government Council must be evaluated in its own terms," Tom Smithson, '65, SGC' president and candidate, said re- cently. "To evaluate it in terms of a high school student council is un- fair. It does not function to ar- range dances for the student body. But in the same vein, to evaluate it in terms of the U.S. government is equally unfair. There it is taken out of its educational context," he.; said. Apathy Smithson said that in one as-E pect the two conceptions unfor- tunately were parallel; both aroused little interest on the part of the constituency. "It is unfor- tunate that members of an edu- cational institution should feel: this way," he added. "Most people tend to evaluate: an organization in terms of what it can do for them personally. Tso a certain extent SGC can satisfy: that tendency. But it has another function that definitely affectsE students although in a more nebu- lous way," Smithson said. He commented that the func-i tion is fulfilled in terms of ex-a pression of student opinion, par- ticipation in, University policy for- mation, and stands SGC takes on .have not lived up to their legis- matters within the University. lative responsibility," he said.

Participation "Participation in activities is part of education. If there is no commitment beyond personal con- 'erns, what sort of commitment will be forged in the future." He did not present SGC as a pan- acea but rather as an opportun- Sity to serve. Smithson said that his interest in SGC and politics in general' stemmed from an involvemeht in East Quadrangle Council in his freshman year. He was first elect- ed to Council in March of 1963 and was elected its president in March of 1964. )(I f L Y MARIO DAVIDOVSKY cate. "Ail the accumulation of art works through history is the evi- dence of such an intent and is, at the same time, the evidence showing the impossibility to reach such a level. "Perhaps if this level of com- munication could be achieved," he continued, "there' would be no reason for art to survive." REP. GEORGE MEADER ribbon committee to study the problem. This committee would be composed of leading lawyers, judges and businessmen from throughout the country. According to Meader, recommen- dations for improvement might take the lines of changing the life tenure to a situation closer to that of state judges who are sub- ject to regular approval of their actions, limiting the scope of the judiciary, and curbing the judi- ciary from making decisions on legislative matters. Branst o Prize Supprter Dies I THOMAS SMITHSON Smithson said. They include cal-, endaring and recognition and sup- ervision of student organizations. "Council's present problem is not one of structure, or of lack of meaningful issues; it is person-, nel. There is a lot of dead weight on council. There are people who William J.
