Defending Free Speech he recent harrassment of the CLC's Women's Group leads to a grim Trealization—some people will actively and methodically try to in- hibit others' freedoms of assembly and expression. These freedoms, which were once called "certain inalienable rights," are apparently quite alien- able at the hands of particular people. Even worse, it seems to be rathereas y for someone to restrict these rights at CLC Distributing and posting false announcements and confiscating mail are offenses which should be taken seriously and not be lightly dismissed. As people who are affected by such offenses, it is our responsibility to be aware of them and to try to prevent further instances. If occurrences like these continue to sprout up, our clubs and organizations will be strangled. Classroom Copying Concern For All Students ost of us are relieved when a professor distributes photostated Mcopies of reading material, thus saving already impoverished students precious money. But while those students are relieved, there is a growing number of publishers and writers who are getting angrier: publishers and writers who are being denied royalties from books that are not sold. Some of these publishers recently demonstrated their anger by claiming copyright infringement in a lawsuit slapped down against an area college. Receiving a regular supply of photostated handouts is nothing new; some students even have to pay a small fee to finance their professors' illicit activity. But when the professor begins to lug in reams of paper, one can begin to understand the publishers' ire. For all their well-meaning intentions professors who start running off whole chapters of texts have taken these good intentions a bit too far. Undoubtedly, this lawsuit will cause more than a few professors to think twice the next time they sneak into their nearest copy center. Perhaps theyll draw the line and pass the buck on to the students/Better yet, perhaps theyll abandon costly texts from which they hoped to rescue the student and search a little harder for a less expensive one. the Observer Staff Bruce Nachbar

TOWNSHEND ON LAST WHO TOUR;PHOTO BY CARYN ROSE Townshend's Latest

By Caryn L. Rose no continuity nor any form of organization. The cuts jump from 1974 to '68 to '71 to '65 to '81 back to 1971, and there he basic problem with the new Pete Townshend album seems to be no sense of order. Ordering the cuts or sides is that it really isn't an album. Entitled Scoop, this two- chronologically would have been ideal — that way, all the Trecord set consists o f demos of songs that were destined early 60's stuff would have been in one place, all the for either Who albums or Townshend solo projects. Lifehouse/Who's Next songs would have been together, and Some cuts on Scoop ("Bargain," "Behind Blue Eyes," "So. the Quadrophenia pieces would be next to each other. This Sad About Us," "Magic Bus ," "Cache, Cache," "Love Reign organization (or rather, lack of it) is distracting and makes O'er Me," "Squeezebox" and "Circles") did undergo the the album impossible to put onandListen to." Instead, the transformation from rough demo tape to finished Who impulse is to jump from cut to cut. song, and it's interesting to hear how their creator originally y initial dislike of Scoop was because of what wasn't conceived the songs. You really can't say which version is on the album. As a collector of Townshend demos, I "better," Townshend's original or the Who's final one—just Mknow what's out there and how great it is. For exam- as you can't compare Townshend's vocals to Roger ple, there's a great demo of a song called "Theresa" that Daltrey's. While I'd never trade Daltrey's version of "Love became a mediocre song called "Athena." But Townshend Reign O'er Me" for Tbwnshend's, both renditions are equal- states in the liner notes (and thanks, Pete, there are a ly affecting; and hearing the pure emotion behind wonderful lot of them) that ".. .this isn't meant to be a Tbwnshend's vocals makes you think quite differently of the definitive collection, just a scoop." song the next time you hear it. The album was compiled by a friend of Townshend's Scoop's highlights include: two leftover instrumental who, according to PT, "is in no way a Who fanatje." from Quadrophenia which are wonderful; outtakes from Perhaps that's the problem. You couldn't possibly assemble the Who's 1981 Face Dances LP (some of which are better a definitive collection of Townshend demos in two as demos than some of the finished songs on that album); albums-Pete's been talking about a planned nine-album Tbwnshend experimenting with electropop, country and demo set for years now —but at least a Who fan could have Motown (on three separate songs, mind you!); and the in- put together something a little more accurately represen- famous, oft-bootlegged, simply beautiful "Mary," from the tative of what the Who's mastermind does in his spare aborted Lifehouse project (that eventually became Who's time-I mean "Initial Machine Experiments"? Next). My problem in criticizing this is that I feel incredibly The negative comments about what's on the album are privileged to be able.to hear a portion of the recorded minor: Do we really want to hear PT's one-minute version genius of Peter Dennis Blandford Townshend. All that of "Tipperary"?; and, there's a cut entitled "Initial Machine aside, however, this is not an album for anyone who holds Experiments" and that's exactly what it is-Tbwnshend no interest in the Who or Townshend; nor is it an album to fooling around with a new synthesizer; and finally, why do completely "listen to" more,than once or twice. For those we need another version of "Squeezebox" or "Magic Bus"? with a vested interest or just plain curious, Scoop is worth Another flaw in this collection is that there is absolutely the Investment.
