He recalls a workshop reading of the play, originally written for radio, saying, %u201cThe play came zinging off the page with a force that took me completely by surprise. I was convinced it should be staged.%u201dAround the nucleus of %u201cThree Women%u201d Kyle has added Plath%u2019s poems in a dramatic framework. He received enthusiastic encouragement from Plath%u2019s family who has provided poems never before published. %u201cThree Women%u201dhas a lot to offer%u25a1 ARTS & SCIENCESHumanities, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Journalism.Urban Studies.%u25a1 HEALTH SCIENCESCommunity Health, Nursing, Physical Education, Physical Therapy.%u25a1 BUSINESS ADMINISTRATIONAccounting, Finance, Integrated Information Systems, Management, Marketing.%u25a1 TEACHER EDUCATIONElementary (Nursery through Grade 6), Secondary, Bilingual.%u25a1 EVENING COURSESUndergraduate and Graduate courses for credit; also non-credit programs.%u25a1 WEEKEND COURSESSat.-Sun. classes for those who cannot attend on weekdays or in the evening.Director of Admissions LTHE BROOKLYN CENTER of LONG ISLAND UNIVERSITYZeckendorf Campus, Flatbush Ave. Ext. & DeKalb AveBrooklyn, N.Y. 11201 %u2022 (212) 834-6100Please send information about area checked above %u25a1 Undergraduate %u25a1 GraduateNameAddress^ C it y __________________________ State Zipdeals with birth, the physical act of giving birth, a subject seldom dealt with by a major writer.

If this turns out to be his position, he will find that he is in a lot of trouble with the voters over this issue.%u201dThe Riccio questionnaire contains several dozen questions on voters%u2019 opinions on a variety of issues. One of the two questions on housing reads: %u201cWould you agree to rent stabilization in place of rent control and maximum base rents?%u201d %u201cAs Riccio well knows,%u201d Ms. Finney commented, %u201c rent stabilization allows even steeper rent increases than the maximum base rent system. That he would even consider substituting rent stabilization for rent control shows Mr. Riccio%u2019s utter insensitivity to the hardship of tenants faced with constantly rising rents and deteriorating services.%u201dLast week the Temporary State Commission on Living Costs and the Economy, chaired by Assemblyman Andrew Stein (Dem.-Manhattan), reported that New York City landlords have made more than a half-billion dollars in added profits due to rent increases under vacancy decontrol, but that there is no evidencethat they have invested much of their new revenue in the maintenance of their buildings. The Commission presented data to show that landlords actually invested less on maintenance and modernization after apartments were decontrolled.Citing the Stein Commission%u2019s report as evidence of the mounting urgency of the issue, Finney announced that she would travel to Albany on Wednesday of this week, the first day of the 1974 Legislative session, to confront Riccio and ask him to make his position clear.Finney said she would be travelling with a delegation from the Borough Park Tenants Council, which is participating in the Tenant Lobby along with the Park Slope Neighborhood Tenants Council and the other affiliates of the Metropolitan Council on Housing, a city-wide tenant organization.Riccio voted in 1971 to enact both the vacancy decontrol law, which lifts all rent limitations from each rent-controlled or stabilized apartment that becomes vacant, and the Urstadt law, which has blocked the City Council%u2019s attempt to repeal the macimum base rent system. The tenant groups are seeking repeal of both laws.Riccio hurt the people of his district badly when he voted for decontrol,%u201d Finney charged. %u201cHe doesn%u2019t bother to ask them, but if he thinks they would settle for anything less than the return of full rent control, he will have quite a surprise in the next election.%u201dFinal Winter Clearance50 % O F Fon all merchandiseT l m o O n j yAll Sales FinalCasual Hutch Ltd140 Montague Streetr%u00bb i _____ ___________ ______ | L I______ D e iw e e n v .m iiu ii ui ivj i ic m yBrooklyn H eights Has a N ew C am era StorePHOTOGRAPHY PLUS42 HENRY STREET 6 2 5 -8 5 1 5DiscountP rices_____________ _New Kodak HjpTnfat No. 10 $19 * Rashcubes-WPocket Instmalic N& 20 $23 * CX 135mm 2th - *J *Pohwoid Peck Na 100 -$4 \Tri-X 135mm 3b -95*20% Discount on All ProcessingMon-Fri 9-6D.m.__________ Sat & Sun 9-4b .ih.Scotto Funeral Home1 0 6 F ir s t P l a c eBrooklyn, N.Y.Salvatore Buddy Scotto, PresidentTR 5-2515C J.
