View And Review

By PATRICIA CADIGAN Romulus The Great was preseil!ted by the Sock and Buskin, a thE.atre group at Brown Unliversity on November 11 to 15.

The · play, aUJthored by the distinguished European pl.!ayWJri:glhit, Fl'E.drich purrenmrutt is a comedy. However, at the core of the work is Durrenm.att's universal theme of seeking truth beyond d.isi!l.lusionment.

Hiis time and setting is ancient Rome during the reign Oif Emperor Rqmulus Augustus.

Rome is dooliilling quickly, to everyone's concern e)QCept the emperor. But, by the end of the work Romulus estwbli.shes his motives of governing; he desires the fa>ll of Rome to balance or justify the inhuman rise Olf Rome. Just as his aims are about to be realized the Emperor is disillusioned by the deruth of his fleeing family and by the invading Tewtons who willl follow the same path of corruption as Rome did. Nevertheless, The Emperor muSit be satisfied to grasp the humanity of the present Slituation.

The ma,jn element of comedy comes with juXItapo.sli'lllg twentieth century mannerisms and the traditional imwge of the Roman empire. This culm.il118Jted in the character, Caesar Rupf, a trouser man'lliaoturer capable of ~avlng the empire with his millions also impl:ies the ti?leless qual,i ty Olf the p-lay.

The prese111taJtion was a very good amateillr performance. The imperial famHy (Romulus Mark Lindberg, Julia, his wife, - Consta.nce Kulik and Rea, his daughter - Susan Juv;eiier) excelled in theJ.r acting.

It was a night thoroughly enjoyed. The audience on Thursday night consisted predomin8.Illtely Olf college students. The troupe 'Wiill be performing other works throughowt the year, and I would reaommend them if they are as well done as this one.

Among the many rights that have been dE.·nied to the students of Salve Regina College is the right to be sick in one's own way. .Aftter having experienced the unfortunate ordeal of being sick, I have come to some very strong conclusions concerning the medical facHities and attention offered here at Salve.

To say the least, the medical facilities and ·attention that are open to the "patienJt" are more than lacking by any medical stailldards. If 2 aspirins and a can of juice are 'sufficient enough treatment in curing such diseases as tonsilitis, pneumorna and others, then every professional doctor and nurse should resign from their profession.

When a glirl, who has been bed ridden for days can only get relief at the medical center, and who has no tra.nspcmtation to the center, ·has to walk a good .t wo miles to receive care, then I can see no value whatsoever in having r egistered nurses. li'V'ing at the school. We don•t ' need someone to tell us we're sick, nor do we need someone to pat us on the back when we're finally healthy again. l't has come to the point whe:re students are afraid to seek med'ic:al aid because of ·t he attitude that is shown by the medical staff. I am wholly d.istuT'bed by the fact that one's illness is publicly discussed a:nd debated at the dinner table. J.t is useless to me to feel secu:r1e when I'm ill because I know there will be no relief from the nagging ,and rebuff I'll be subjected to.

AnO'ther aspect Olf iillterest to the stuOOnit is the right to consult one's doctor on her own.

When a member Qf the medical staff deli-berately att;J.cks or unintentionally atltacks one's own doctor for the prescription he has prescri!bed, and classifies a studenJt unfilt to attend classes or a studenJt's probl~ as emotional or otherwise, then it is high time we questioned the medical establishment here.

To mention other segments of interest, why can't an R.N. who is duly qualified, be able to administer any kind of medication when it is needed? By the time a student is finiShed havdng fruit juice and oranges pumped into her, she'll be more than ill, she'll be dead from too much consumption of liquids: We don't Il!eed to hear about student rights When we're siCk; we need medical at:JterJJtion.

Many people, noticeably those who want to sell us :tlhinigs like Virginlia Slims, like to congratulate us on h.Qw far wolll:en have come. But we've only .come to another beg1ilnndng, from our presenJt opp~on to the new possrbildlty of liiberalt.ion.

"There is a need for a radical mowment among women to secure rights am.d end oppression.

Women's Liberation is not just an attempt to end overt. discrim-. ina~tion but tt is a process of overcoming the social pressures which place women in pre-defined roles and inhibit development as a person. Women are limited not by indiVlidual potential but because they are women.

The li:beraltion movement brings about a solidarity among wome;n.

Women are getting togetiher to take what is theirs and not to wait Wll1il a male-orientated power stn.tature decides to give it to them. .....:. Pat Dwyer, '71 AooordinJg to Miss Linda Gordon in her article in. the winter ed1tion, lim), of WOMEN Maga~ zine: "Part of tihat new perception is a cl1itrique of the inadequacy of earliier women's liberation theory: Suffragettes asked oil'ly for equal legal and political rights for women and thus allowed a potentially raldical women's movement to be swallowed by bourgeois liberalism.

By SHEILA SESSA The Women's Uberation Movement is now a growing organization in Newport, as it is in many ci!bies across the United SJtates. The group was first .started this summer, but a lack of support and a IniBundersltanding of theory ooused ·this i.mtial attempt to fail. Howewr, the women were persiSbent and tried again in September and so far rui.ve been successful.

The goal of the ·g roup has not yet clearly been defined. The women feel that forming anumber of smal!l. groups of six to seven people is more conducive to deletrm.ining and achieving a~n eilld than a large group of nonf'a.miliar faces.

These "rap groups." oonsistmg of the same members, meet regularly to discuss and find solutions to the problems of woma.nlhood. The women feel that they must

The structuJ;"e of the group is set up so thalt each mem"ber has an opportunO:ty to e~press an opi>ni.on or obseT'VIation about the topic being discussed. This topic is initialted by a~ny member and usually is not predetenriined.

Since Women's l..db of Newport is such a young organization, ilt haiS not yet reccived feedbac'k from U1e Community. Individually, however, there has been some hostillity booause of the maJSS media represenrtation that the mtiona.l Women's l..dberation Movement is receiving.

It is funded by the U.S. Offioe of Education for one year. Started in 1969, "its purpose is to increase the quantity and improve the quality of student change efforts in universities and colleges in the New Engla nd region, by putting media, institutional informalt.ion and money resources direCitly into the ha'Ilds of the people who need thein." ' Communioa.tion grants are a central part of the process whic h the Clearing House is trying to' create.
