Disagreement between Princeton Borough's public safety committee and a group that was to play a pivotal role in evaluating a possible alcohol ordinance threatens to delay further discussion about the future of the controversial law.Earlier this week, the Borough Council's public safety committee tabled discussion of the state law ? which would allow municipalities to adopt ordinances permitting police to cite underage drinkers on private property.The public safety committee, like the Township Committee one month earlier, then requested advice on the ordinance from several local groups, including Corner House ? a counseling and prevention agency for teenage alcohol and drug abuse.But Gary DeBlasio, the executive director of Corner House, said Wednesday the organization does not take official positions on public policy and therefore will not take a position on the possible alcohol ordinance.Township Committee member Roz Denard said Sunday that Corner House was the expert on alcoholand drug-related issues and that both the Borough and Township were waiting for its input.Nevertheless, DeBlasio, who has worked in behavioral health for 23 years, said Corner House would not provide guidance on the issue.

A panel held yesterday in the Frist Campus Center on the media's role in shaping views about sex and gender on college campuses was the scene of considerable and often passionate debate.The impetus for the panel ? sponsored by the Organization of Women Leaders ? was a controversial Men's Health article by Laurence Stains that named Princeton one of the nation's top 10 "male-friendly schools."Members of the panel ? which included 'Prince' Editor-in-Chief Richard Just '01 ? discussed whether Stains' article endorsed an anti-female or chauvinistic sentiment among some collegiate males.Stains, who was a member of the panel, maintained that his article was designed to criticize campuses on which males are unnecessarily uncomfortable and the subject of "out-and-out scorn."Citing his belief that women "rule" in academia today, Stains argued that his article was designed to help prospective college students determine where they would be most comfortable.But students on the panel and in the audience said they believe Stains' article did much more than help males determine where they might find a supportive and tolerant environment.Terrace Club president and panel member Nili Safavi '01 took issue with the criteria used in the article to determine which campuses were male-friendly.

Maurice Sendak's face resembles, in a benevolent way, the expressive features of the wild monsters he drew in his award-winning book "Where the Wild Things Are." The similarity is not surprising given that Sendak modeled the monsters in his book on the unkind aunts and uncles that he remembers from his childhood.Sendak, one of the leading visionaries in children's literature, spoke yesterday evening to a crowd of all ages at McCosh 50 in a speech and question-and-answer session sponsored by the Council for the Humanities.When Sendak's most famous book, "Where the Wild Things Are," came out in 1963, it was considered by some critics too scary for children with its drawings of grotesque monsters hanging from trees and beating pots and pans in a dark wood.Other critics believed that the book was inappropriate for children because it was about a boy who disobeys his mother and tells her, "I want to eat you up." Despite the criticism, however, the book was incredibly successful."Adults were critical of the book, but children loved it," Sendak said.Sendak has written and illustrated 19 books and has illustrated more than 60 others.
