Circus Is U nionized by Brian Todd Circus invades McGill? Clowns Plan Massive March on Union Building? No, it’s simply the annual Activities Night with a twist. Thursday night in the Union Building, the Program Board presents its annual showcase of campus clubs and associations. However, this year in an effort to draw larger crowds and make the evening entertaining as well as informative, coordinator o f Activities Night *84, Abe Karrel has come up with a Circus Night theme. Activities Night will closely resemble an old-line fair this year. Pop-corn and cotton candy are planned .along with professional clowns, jugglers and break-dancers. These entertainers will be prowling throughout the three floors of boothes spread-out in the

Union. On each floor different clubs and associations will be setting-up their stands attended by club-members in Circus dress. No one quite knows what to expect from the various clubs but Abe has suggested to them that lion ta m e rs , s tro n g -m e n , 1/2 -m e n 1/2-women and ring masters would be appropriate. Available at the boothes will be the clubs' program for the next year, their individual interests and philosophies and o f course sign-up sheets. In addi tion, performing groups have been ask ed to prepare skits or audio-visual pro ductions reminiscent o f “ Clubs Night" in the movie “ Chariots o f Fire". The night offers a great opportunity to learn about clubs that you may have heard of or even discover what a wide continued on page 3

Inside this McGill Tribune News

by Kristina Millman On Monday, September 10th over 400 students eagerly awaited the arrival of Roger Caron, described by the Boston Globe as “ the hardest of the hard rocks... who are eventually con sumed by the intensity of their rage, succumbing to the crippling beatings from the guards, mind-altering drugs, insanity or suicide." Caron, who has spent 26 of his 46 years in virtually every maximumsecurity institution in Canada, is the author o f “Go-Boy”, winner of the 1979 Governor-General’s award. At 8:00 p.m., the lights dimmed and the smallish, middle-aged ex-convice from Cornwall, Ontario proceeded to charm his way into many hearts. Jailed at the age of 16, Caron was paroled at 41. He has spent the past 5 years of his life touring North America, promoting his book and “ keeping clean so that, knock n wood, hell never haye to go

back." ,Caron kept the tone o f the seminar surprisingly light, telling stories o f his experiences in Montreal, “ the bank robbing capital of the world." Caron was once holding up a bank in the States when a group o f teenagers loiter ing in the parking lot stole his get-away carl The tone of the gathering became more less humorous during Caron's discussions with various members of the audience about electro-shock punishment and the use of the 'paddle' in Canadian prisons. Caron stressed the somewhat desperate need for a more personalized penal system in this country, with a stronger focus on rehabilitation... In the words o f Pierre, who wrote the introduction to “Go-Boy”, “ As a bank robber Roger was a dismal Failure. I suspect that it is as a writer that his real future lies."

Absentee Balloting, Essential to Americans

Montreal. If this is also necessary for the ballot itself, make sure your right to secret voting is preserved. The U.S. Consul in Montreal is located in Complexe des Jar dins. The phone number is 281-1886. Citizens must “ vote in the state in which they last resided immediately prior to departing the U.S.,” states the federal voter assistance guide. Depending on the state, the FPCA may allow you to both register to vote and apply for an absentee ballot, or just one or the other. If either of the latter two are the case, further correspondence with state election officials is necessary. Canadian postage is required to mail the FPCAs. Even if you think you are too late to mail a ballot, mail it anyway. Some states allow ballot counting after polls close if the ballot is post marked on or before the date of the election. To ensure a clear post mark, ask the postal clerk to handstamp your ballot.

To receive absentee ballot applica tions and more information, come by. the tables in the Union or call the U .S., Consulate. Remember, government is not a spectator sport. If you have a n : opinion, cast a ballot.

by Moira Ambrose Now that Canadians have paused for a post-election breather, Americans must ready themselves for their own election mania. Unfortunately, for McGill’s almost 1000 American students, election mania is synonymous to absentee ballot redtape. In an effort to ease the bureaucracy, students will be staffing tables at lunchtime in the Union building for the next three weeks to answer questions and distribute American absentee ballot applications. The applications themselves have clear instructions and are easy to com plete. The process only becomes com plicated in the varied state to state balloting procedures. Students staffing the tables will have information, or ac cess to information, on voting pro cedures for the United States, its ter ritories and the District of Columbia. The deadline for absentee ballot ap plications in all states is October 6th. A few reminders, in conjunction with the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA), will make the process simple:

W orkshop Stresses Male Awareness by Linda Gendron September 21 to 23 the men of Mon treal will have a chance to become full human beings. A male awareness workshop is being held in Ste. Margerite, Quebec, for men of any age, race, background, belief or walk of life. It is the first workshop o f its kind to be held in Quebec and one of the few held in Canada. It will be con ducted by Charles Kreiner, a worldrenowned specialist in human relation ships. Steve Kelen and Jean Belanger who are organizing the workshop feel that it is time for a men’s movment in Montreal. The aim of the workshop is to help men develop themselves as better peo ple. Kelen hopes that they will become, “ Men who are able to respond to every situation in life with a brand new response.” The workshop is part of a growing men’s movement comparable to the early feminist movement. On a wider scale it would seem to be part of the human liberation movement. According to Kelen, the basic em phasis of the workshop is the examina tion of male conditioning in our society and the subsequent inability of men to be truly themselves. Kelen went on to describe the conditioning of men as well as women to certain gender stereotypes. He claims that boys are generally taught to be ’tough* and ’emotionless*, to see themselves as bet ter than women. It is a sexist attitude which continues to play a role throughout their lives. For a boy who doesn’t adequately assume the role, continued from page 1 range of clubs McGill has to offer. If you haven’t read the Clubs section of the Student Handbook, Activities Night may surprise you with the diver sity of clubs that are available on cam-

comes the label “ sissy” . This male ac cording to Kelen is deemed to be less than a man and even a homosexual. In herent in this sexist attitude is an avoidance of deep relationships with other men, claims Kelen. He charges that males grow up learning to avoid the close relationships with other men that they may share with women because o f a fear of being ’unmanly* and therefore homosexual. Kelen stresses that this fear of closeness in relations between men is a product of male conditioning. Says Kelen, “ It is a basic human function to care. The whole notion of sex and love co-existing in a relationship is not necessarily true.” He cites as an exam ple the parent-child relationship which involves love and caring without sex. So without the fulfillment of these per sonal male relationships, men in our society experience a void. To cover up this void, this vacancy within, men hide behind their self-made images and give and take abuse. The Male Awareness workshop has a$ one of its aims the confrontation of this void. The workshop leader, Charles Kreiner, is a founding member of Building Bridges, a group that is com mitted to women’s and men’s libera tion and the improvement of human relationships. The workshop will be bilingual and will be held in a camp set ting. Participants will be expected to take initiative and responsibility for the success of the workshop and for ad dressing their own needs and issues. Applications for the weekend are still bring taken. pus. Boothes will be open from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Thursday night but after 10 p.m., a dance will be held in the Ballroom. The entire evening is free to any student. It should be a great way to start your weekend off and at a great price.

Students’ Society 1984*85: The Turning Point by Grace Permaul, President of Students’ Society Exactly where is the Students’ Socie ty headed in the coming year? With the many changes in the decor of the University Centre, a renewed interest in the Students’ Society is beginning to surface. Our objectives this year are well thought out, concrete, realistic and obtainable. Throughout the sum mer months the Executive Committee met under my leadership, planning, organizing and preparing for what will be the year of “ McGill” . There is no doubt that this year is the turning point. Many of the existing policies and programs are weak and somewhat outdated. In an attempt to bring the Student government into the twenty-first century, there has been a change in focus. With the aid o f a management firm we are striving to im prove the quality o f food while allow ing us to have more time to address the many political problems that confront us. However, while CVC Beaver Foods will oversee the day to day operations, the pubs and the cafeteria still belong to the Students’ Society: they are still YOURS. As a result, council meetings will no longer revolve mainly around food and beverage. As a matter of fact, the very nature o f council discussions will be quite different this year. We have such a full agenda that there will be little time and tolerance for petty internal squabbling and personal vendettas. All councillors will be required to attend meetings cm a regular bads. The conse quences of absenteeism will be discuss ed at the meeting of September 27th. This year councillors will not. merely vote on critical matters but will be directly involved in the formation of policy. All councillors will be requested to sit on at least one committee .to study issues such as the proposed dif ferential Tuition Fee increase for NonQuebeccers; the Constitution; the establishment of a daycare centre and

the future of legal aid. An ongoing evaluation of all Students’ Society ac tivities will be performed to ensure that your money is well spent and also to enable the J.M.C. to make accurate predictions and recommendations for future reference. At the present time, all existing structures o f the Students' Society are being revamped. Throughout the sum mer the Joint Management Committee met on a regular basis, thoroughly ex amining the budget of all sponsored groups and activities. Not only has careful consideration been given to the needs of the individual groups but also to the needs of their clientele. There has been much discussion about the role and future of the South Africa Committee. Not only has this commit tee submitted a policy statement for discussion at council but members have expressed the desire to increase awareness and to educate the student population about apartheid. On the provincial and national level members of the Executive Committee and myself have met with various other student governments from all over the country who want to revamp the Cana dian Federation of Students (CFS) in hopes of being better able to lobby for student rights with the Federal Govern ment. The other universities realize that you, the McGill students, would be an asset and that your student leaders would play a vital role in this form of political advocacy. At the pro vincial level we have been involved in dialogue with the other Quebec univer sities and have come not only to understand their problems but also we have reached common ground. We ex pect to see a strong network of Quebec and other Canadian universities in the coming year. But not only will this network be ex ternal but also internal. It is my goal to reach out to all of the faculties, graduate and undergraduate, to form a more cohesive society and a more representative student government. We have met with members o f the

^ R E D & W HITE REVUE

P.G.S.S. and will continue to do so. We plan to meet with all of the various student organizations on a regular basis. The Presidents’ Council will play a critical role in forming the Students’ Society of the needs o f their respective constituents as well as offering con structive criticism (or praise) for pro-

posed courses o f action. Yes action. Things can happen on this campus if you take the time to get involved and make them happen. So you ask where is the Students’ Society headed in 1984-85? “ TO THE STARS, MAN, TO THE STARS!”

New In Town? by Marian MacNair As VIA N°2 pulls into Montreal sta tion it begins to dawn on me that I’ve left the west coast very far behind in deed. This is THE EAST. Here I am in the most fascinating city in Canada, and, I realize with a touch of horror, the largest. I follow the stream of 'humanity through the station wonder ing how I shall manage 3 suitcases, a trunk and a broken arm if there is no one here to meet me. With relief I spy a familiar face in the crowd and we head for the luggage depot. “ Oh, by the way, we had a bit of an incident here yesterday. A bomb you know, people killed and many injured. Right over there — see?’’ Oh my, welcome to Montreal. I'm sure I’m going to like it here. After searching for hours in the bowels of the station for my luggage, which looks exactly like several thou sand others, and dragging my trunk several miles in search of a porter who never materialized, I find myself ensconced in a taxi. I now have the doubtful privilege o f viewing Montreal from a taxi at rush hour. That is, Mon treal’s bumpers, sidewalks, street lights, and the odd unlucky pedestrian, all at about 120kmh. Never have I seen such a collection of irate people in such a hurry. Never have I felt so close to the afterlife. After settling into my room — surely the most varvelous view of “ Hotel le Sherbourg” I’ve ever seen — I’m taken on a tour of McGill campus. I toil through sacred portal and hallowed

hall, all bearing the names of dignitaries that have gone before but none bearing the all-important digits ’Leacock 12’. I start to dread the com ing of Monday and classes. The time arrives to see something of the city when I’m tole McGill bookstore does not have my texts and I must go to Westmount and find Green Avenue (le Verte???). I now discover that all o f Montreal is built on a hill, not just McGill. Also that there are two kinds of pedestrians — fast ones and dead ones. I wander through block after block o f glorious architecture, only to be informed that I was looking at the ghetto. I conclude that Montreallians (or is it -ites?) have no kit chens and eat only in restaurants, to judge by their number and variety. I have stood before endless rows of clothing boutiques and despaired of ever looking like the fashionable women I see on all sides, even if I own ed an oilfield. My encounters with the natives have been various. I still do not know what I did to the taxi driver to deserve such language — I did not want a taxi thank-you. I regretfully was obliged to say “ no” to the “ handsome stranger in the sportscar” who offered me & tour of the city, and then encountered an amorous young Frenchman who, while his English was perfect in all other respects seemed purely incapable of comprehending the meaning o f “ no” . Fascinating, this city. Dangerous too, which adds to the thrill. I’m star ting to be glad I came; now where did you say I register?

THE THIRD DIMENSION__ 5 FOREIGN SERVICE Comment: Raise Your EXAM PREP SEMINARS Own Standard Offered CANADA-WIDE: SEPT. 22 — OCT. 12

by Brian Todd With this space left in this week’s Trib and the deadline rapidly ap proaching, I thought that I should prepare a short comment. The piece I had imagined was full o f helpful advice on academic planning. While you often read and hear that the academic stan dards are dropping at McGill and that certain intellectual curiosity and critical ferment that you had dreamed about in high school and CEGEP were missing at McGill, you seldom hear much about the advantages McGill continues to hold over many other smaller colleges. Despite the continu ing financial crisis that McGill faces, there is still a wide range o f interesting courses that is simply not available at smaller schools, that is available here. As a result, McGill students can benefit from the ‘‘shopping-around” period. Inspite o f the fact that you registered for a whole slate of courses

in early September, both professors and students alike acknowledge the ex istence o f a period in the first three weeks o f September when students at tend numerous different classes in order to End those ideally suited to their needs. It is your personal prerogative to go out on this three week long shopping-trip. While Arts students are faced with much greater flexibility in their course selection than are Science or other students, all should be aware that the time has come for individually-guided academic pro grams. Academic advisors do not have the time to keep on top o f the developments in other departments and then pass on these subtleties in the rapid advising process. Friends can recommend courses but, the question then becomes, “ Is the recommenda tion based on the p ro fs choice of war drobe, the timing o f the mid-term or the fact that the class takes place at

My Personal Encounter W ith The Pope When the telephone awakened me so late into the night, silly me, I had no idea it would be the Pope. “ Who the hell do think you are, call ing at three in the morning?” I asked crankily, remembering that those who disturb my slumber are not to be treated politely. There was something familiar about the gentle laughter that reached my ears, and with his first words I realized to whom it was that I had spoken so unkindly. “ My son, my son,” he chuckled. “ Will you never change?” I sat upright, like a bolt in my bed. Wide awake, and yet as if in a dream. “ John. Paul.” I said. “ Two,” said he, and we chuckled at our little game, always amusing, always the same. But I was tense: something big was about to happen, or had already hap pened — no, it was about to happen alright. My voice portrayed this ten sion, to the Pope, via my telephone, and he sensed this. “ Well, aren’t you going to ask me? he prodded.” “ But Pope,” I said, “ so much has changed. I mean, the world tour and ail...” “ Nothing has changed!” he said sternly, his voice on edge. It was true. How could things ever change between two good friends. Sure, relationships have their ups and downs, like little children on see-saws, but true friendship — friendship, F-ri, ah, you know how to spell it. True friendship will last, or as the Pope would say: “ Trou frenship willows” . “ Hey,” I said, “ Pope. What’s the scope?” “ T hat's my son!” said he. And the ice was broken. “ So, where you calling from?” I asked. “ Montreal,” he replied. “ Montreal f?” I exclaimed, genuine ly surprised. “ Don’t tell me you didn’t know. It’s been in all the papers.”

“ Gee,” I said. “ I’m sorry, I’ve been so busy lately. Back at school you know.” I added lamely. “ And the dating...?” he queried. I had to be honest. “ Pope, old pal, every time you phone, I know you're going to ask. And every time you ask I feel like saying 'Dating is great. Chicks are fantastic, and sex is the greatest fantastic thing in the world!’ “ But I'll tell you. Sex isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, and probably the on ly reason I keep doing it is so that some day, when you phone up and say, ‘Heeeeere’s Johnny’ I’ll be able to say ‘Sorry Pope, you lose’.” “ But I know that's never going to happen.” His laughter was too familiar. “ Keep trying, my son. Some day, someday!” “ So, say,” I said. “ You going to Pope over or what?” “ I don’t think so,” he said. “ I just got in, and quite frankly, I’m Poped.” “ Did you fly?” I asked. “ Sure, why?” he replied and asked, thus killng two birds with one stone, in a manner of speaking. “ I was just wondering if your ears Poped,” “ But seriously,” I continued, “ There’s some bad sentiment surroun ding your visit. And some bad senti ment surrounding that. More impor tantly, that bad sentiment is being am bushed by some more bad sentiment, while at the same time double-crossing some bad sentiment which is surroun ding it to begin with. Unbeknownst to them all, there is a great deal of bad sentiment preparing to make itself known but just waiting for the right time — “ At least that’s not the Pope-ular opinion,” interrupted the Pope, and his guffaw nearly broke my eardrum. Still the same old guy. And then he told me o f all the fun he was going to have while here. He was going to drive past McGill one morning in the Pope-mobile on his way to get a continued on page 6

THE THIRD DIMENSION The Return Of The Mature Student

by Barry Jackson This Fall brought with it an unusual change to my normal mundane ex istence. After nearly six years of nine to five, I re-entered the youthful at mosphere o f University life. Normally around this time, the change of season was accompanied by a pervading sense of dread and gloom. The sight of energetic children piling into overload ed buses, and the obnoxious return of Back-to-School sales at every comer, would strike home the realization that I was doomed to another year o f frustra tion and boredom. The prospect o f an empty existence in a job with no future, o f unappreciated effort, was enough to sink me into a state of utter depression. Suddenly, I find myself immersed in a sea of squeaky clean faces, and the sound o f a thousand footsteps mar ching to the beat o f a different drum. Of course the school routine isn’t without its hazards, its emotional traumas, and endless hours toiling over the books, but there is a difference, a big difference. It lies in the ability to pursue a course that is chosen, not one stumbled upon, or shows no way out. It involves the ability to chose alternatives if the results prove unsatisfactory. It lies in the desire to learn, to improve oneself, to expand horizons in preparation for the future. It is shared with a diverse community pursuing similar goals and interests. Upon finding yourself thrust into a place in the working environment (if it ever comes), the picture soon fades and hopes are quickly dashed. Respon sibility is something usually seen from a distance, encouragement is reserved for reporting to work on time, and the chances for advancement are limited to waiting for someone to die, of for the entire upper management to be forced into early retirement. So you work day after day, on a salary barely able to pay for the flood o f bills that seem to grow faster than the raises, and the sole reward consists of a two week vacation that becomes a desperate attempt to justify a year’s frustration and agony.

Not a pretty picture, is it? Not that all is doom and gloom, mind you. I’ve heard of one or two friends who are doing quite nicely, thank you, and another who actually

does what he loves, even a few others than can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel. But these remain a few isolated examples. All is not roses in University. It’s a

lot o f hard work. Doubts crop up all the time and being broke is a way of life. But the real satisfaction can be found in the knowledge that you can give as much o f yourself as you expect to receive in return.

Personal Pope continued from page 5 ‘steamd and frites’ at The Montreal Pool-Hall, and then drive down Ste. Catherine that night in his Ferrari Box er S12. And of course he was going to check out the giant water-slide at Avila. And then I told him what a wonder ful time I was going to have at McGill this year, partying it up and shaking it down. I told him about this great col umn I was going to write (this one) and asked him whether he had anything really, like profound and secret to tell all the McGillites. “ The world is ftill of people,’’ he said, “ And we’re all a little bit dif ferent, and a little bit the same.” “ Oh wow,” I said sarcastically, “ is that ever deep.” And the Pope replied “ Hey, you caught me off guard.” (Or as it sound ed, “ A, you cult me ulf God” .) “ Great. You’ve got over a million followers — probably — and a good portion of which are at McGill — I ’m sure — and that’s all you can give them. Oh well, I’ll change it around a bit and it’ll do. I know, T h e world is full of people, and we’re all a little bit different, and a little bit the same — but in heaven they’re all the same.’” “ You can’t print that!” he exclaim ed. “ Try and stop me. Power of the press, etc, etc. If you don’t want it {Minted, don’t let it happen.” Static obscured the Pope’s voice, and when it cleared he sounded dif ferent. His voice held a deep timbre, and had taken on a commanding ma jestic quality, like a big fat man order ing a Quarter-Pounder at McDonald’s. “ You shall see,” he boomed. “ Just what I can do.”

“ Um — wait a sec,” I said. I began thinking quickly, but even in all my deep thought I could not help but feel a strange tingling in my hand. The hand that was holding the receiver. That was connected to the Pope. “ Fifty-thousand Volts, fellah,” he said in that powerful voice. “ If you don’t give me your word that you won’t print that article, I’m going to give you fifty thousand volts through the telephone.” “ And I can do it, too,” he added un necessarily. “ A double negation,” I said, desperately vying for time. “ Let me think a minute, I don’t want to give you the wrong answer.” Then it hit me. What to do, 1 mean, not the fifty thousand volts. “ Cool it Pope,” I said. “ I’m in con trol now. I’ll have you know that I’m recording this entire conversation, and am not afraid to make it public, even posthumously.” His menacing laughter was all too familiar. “ I'll destroy that too, you in significant pipsqueak!” “ Oh year?” came my weak voice. "Well, uh, this is really being broad cast live on MTV.” But my voice was trembling, I was doomed. I’ll destroy North America!!” And his raucous laughter shook the rafters. “ Simulcast in stereo and translated into fifty languages throught the world,” I screamed hysterically into the bake-a-lite, which might soon become a bake-a-life. Or worse. “ The World!!” His deep bass heav ing the walls of my room, lifting my bed many feet in the air and smashing it down. “ I’LL DESTROY THE EN TIRE WORLD!!” “ FREEDOM OF THE PRESS!” I

cried in capital letters, and stared in horror at the receiver, which I held in terror before my eyes, as one so often does. There was a dreadful silence, then a voice — that of a deranged madman about to commit an insane act — ooz ed out of the phone. It went “ UUUUUNNNNNGGGGG” . And then nothing. “ You’re not really the Pope, are you?” I asked. “ No.” he confessed. “ But you are in Montreal,” I asked hopefully. “ Un Huh.” “ Well, at least that’s something.” Then it occured to me who it must be. My long lost Unde, the practical joker. “ Is it you, Unde? After all these years, is it really you?” “ No. Sorry.” he said. “ Guess again.” “ I’m tired o f guessing games,” I said, and to emphasize this, I repeated it four or five times, which you may now do quietly. “ I’ll give you a hint: “ Gimme a J, gimme a * —” But there was no need for him to continue, I knew who it was. “ Geepers,” I said. “ Geepers Crumbs, how are ya?” It was- my old friend Geepers Crumbs, calling me from Harvard. “ You sure had me fooled,” I told him. “ And you had me going there too,” he told me. And we laughed and chuckled at our little game, “ always amusing, always the same'. The End

RECORDS

by Sieve Fraser It’s debut time again on television. As they do every autumn, the networks present new programs to replace those that didn't cut it in the Neilsen viewership war. No news there, right? Wrong. Don’t expect the majority of the new offerings to last through half of the up coming season. Producers, some fans, and a lot of notables in the television industry have been complaining openly these past few years. They complain that the networks do not give new series a chance to pick up an audience and thus make a dent in the ratings. In the recent past, duetto the decisions of the networks to plug new shows and pull them just as soon, we have witnessed many a new series disappear into oblivion. This has meant that we have been seeing an even greater number of new programs, not especial ly in the fall. It would seem unfair not to give every series its fair chance, wouldn’t it? After all, hasn’t NBC recently been proving that holding out on cancella tion notices can be the better policy? Granted that shows such as Hill Street Blues, St. Elsewhere, and Cheers, which all had a dismal first year, have since gone on to greater success. These series, however, can be taken as excep tions. They are quality innovative pro grams that needed some time for the audience to adjust to them and not vice ‘versa as is often the case. Most other shows really don’t need that much time to build a following because they are so familiar. They are, in essence, adjusting themselves to the viewers through copying series that have already been through this for

mative process. That’s why it’s easier to be a copy-cat in television than it is to be an original. Now honestly ask yourselves. If Dallas hadn't become so popular, do you think Dynasty and other such shows would have been created? What you must understand is that networks like to live by proven formulas. One of them is “ If it has succeeded once, it'll do so again (and again and again until the people get fed up with it!).’’ What am I saying? I'm saying that I must, to a large extent, defend the net works’ policy of swift cancellations when new shows do not come up with

suitable ratings. I won’t go so far as to say that I trust their judgement fully but I do believe they are doing the best they can under the circumstances they've put themselves in. It does make sense to cancel something that is not totally original and give more of a chance to those shows that are truly in novative. Thus, what the networks should be reproached for is their lack of in itiative. Take for instance H ot Pursuit, about to debut on NBC. I won’t bore you with the details — this show almost literally mirrors the old Fugitive continued on page 13

The Box rocked the Sandbar on Saturday to close off a highly successful “ Welcome Week.” With three encores played the crowd couldn’t get enough of The Box’s limited repertoire.

Annabel Lamb: THE FLAME (H & A) Annabel Lamb’s THE FLAME is a definite must for any New Music fan. Having sung background vocals as well as played keyboards for various groups over the years, Lamb’s first solo ablum is the refined product of her com prehensive experience in the music in dustry. Her deep sultry voice (A la An nie Lennox) brings a subtle sensuality to simple, evocative lyrics. Although she sings mainly of bitterness and the trials and tribulations of relationships, the album’s versatility offers songs that will appeal to any mood. From the haunting, surreal tones o f “ Dream Boy” , to the tongue-in-cheek, reggaeinspired beat o f “ So Lucky In Bed” , THE FLAME can set the ambience for just about anything: be it psyching up for that big breakup, dancing up a storm, or simply mellowing out. THE FLAME is an album not to be missed, and, in my opinion, one of the best albums this year. Joy Rider: TIRED OF PHONEY (RCA) ^ Unable to gain significant recogni tion on New York’s club circuit, Joy

Rider headed for Germany to seek fame. She became a hit, performing live with such German legends as Nina Hagen and Udo Lindenbergen. However, despite her company, Rider’s first album effort is a disap pointment. Contrary to its title, TIRED OF PHONEY is neither in novative nor unaffected. Hie album lacks originality and relies heavily on hackneyed themes (ie., the frustration inherent in modem city life) and tired techniques to insure hits. Rider’s thin, .feline voice becomes rather irritating after a while, and is not strong enough to support the grandiose and, at times excessive, rhythm section. The style on TIRED OF PHONEY is an awkward mix of scratching, raping and funk, clumsily welded into six forgettable dance tunes. Who can take songs like “ Insomnia In Zambia” seriously? Strictly for the polyester disco set. Gary O’: STRANGE BEHAVIOUR (RCA) Canada finally has its very own Rich Springfield. A native son o f Toronto, Gary O'Connor has been involved with music all his life. STRANGE BEHAVIOUR is his second solo ef fort. And solo is right — O’Connor produced, arranged, and wrote all the songs AND played guitar, bass, and

keyboards. Impressive, you marvel. Yes but... Unfortunately, Gary O* comes across as a very talented musi cian who has yet to find his niche in the music world. Most of the songs are standard verse-chorus-verse pop — rock tunes with decidedly macho undertones. “ Get It While You Can” is suspiciously reminiscent of “ Jessie’s Girl” (what a classic!) The only’ redeeming features of this album are two semi-ballads called “ Watching You” and “ Shades of ’45” . All in all, STRANGE BEHAVIOUR is not a bad album, just a dull one. Klaus Nomi: ENCORE (RCA) For the uninitiated and seasoned fans, ENCORE provides an excellent selection of the late Klaus Nomi’s highly original stylings. Nomi’s defiant falsetto adds an eerie pathos to ballads like “ Falling In Love With You” and “ Der Nissbaum” . Conversely “ Simple Man” is an electo-pop. Gilbert and Sullivan meet Moog; a wry sense of humour pervades throughout. Because of its rather bizarre nature, ENCORE will not immediately appeal to those with more conservative tastes. However, it must be heard and con sidered one of the better examples of today’s Avant Garde. M.C.

ENTERTAINM ENT**

Making Waves Opens W ith A Splash If last Wednesday’s opening o f the Sandbar is any indication of things to come this year, then the entertainment scene at McGill has finally come of age. Decked out in huge hanging ban ners, and featuring a large stage and raised seating platforms, the cold, stark atmosphere o f the Union Ballroom was transformed into a warm and comfortable nightclub setting. Following weeks of careful planning

and preparation, the staff of the Pro gram Board could only sit back and hope the crowds would show. And show they did! By 11 o'clock, the Sandbar was proclaimed a full house — on a Wednesday night no less! Beer sales were brisk, refreshments in abun dant supply, and at 9:30 the show real ly began with the arrival of The Faboulas Knowboddys. Aided by a clear and powerful sound system, the band was given every op-

portunity to strut their stuff. They moved effortlessly through '50s rock and jazz to present day Rockabilly and New Wave. The Knowboddys ap peared well prepared and in command o f their music, however, the crowd seemed slow to react, perhaps due to a hectic week of first classes and registra tion. Perhaps the band’s direction lies in a more direct approach to the type of music they seem to be most comfor table with their own. So, after a worthy effort, the band will probably remain in the hearts of McGill as merely the Knowboddys. After an appropriate pause to allow the audience to concentrate on depleting the bar's resources, the night’s featured act prepared to take The Sandbar by storm. Nash the Slash, or Slash to his friends, took to the stage determined to knock the roof off the Ballroom. Dressed in black fishnet stocking and appropriate shades and headgear and sporting an impressive array of customized instruments, Nash set the tone with a lively rendition or THE WHO’s immortal-classic Baba O'Reilly. Backed by only 2 other musi cians, the sound produced by the array

o f synthesized percussion, and stateof-the-art keyboards, was indeed im pressive. While the crowd seemed amused by the colorful front man, he seemed to lack the killer instinct that would have put them down for the count. The fun didn't slow down 'til well after 1:30, and aside from the usual minor security scuffles, the night prov ed to be a complete success. Full marks to all the people at the Program Board and the 20 odd volunteers who ac complished miracles to pull it off. If you're interested, you can still play a part in what appears to be the most ex citing season McGill has ever witness ed. According to local promoters, the Sandbar is considered to be the top venue for University campuses, and with the addition of much needed funds this year, The Program Board has the potential to draw from the best of Montreal's vibrant band scene. Furthermore, with the addition of the renovated Gertrude’s and the open ing soon of the new downstairs pub "The Alley", McGill can look forward to a taste of jazz, blues, and the spirit of rock’n’roll to attract them to every corner of the Union Building.

Lieutenant Thompson: Campus Sleuth by Kevin Niahmu At McGill University, there is no security guard quite like Lieutenant Thompson.

Cordop Bleu food fo r Thought by the Cordon Bleu Cook Food, Glorious Food! Well fellow students, it’s that time o f year. Back to school and back to the “ what to eat to survive blues” . Take it from a pro — I went through a year o f “ Kraft dinners” and “ Mr. Christie Cookies” before I saw the tight. Do not and I repeat do not allow yourselves to fall into the ’Box Bag dilemma’. How to avoid this problem? Stay tuned to the Trib’s bi-monthly food column. I will be discussing how to prepare economical gourmet dinners, quick Voyageur Munch:

nutritious apris classe snacks, Mon treal’s top student dining spots and much more. “ Food for Thought” will cater to the inexperienced, nervous novice, as well as the would-beinternationally-acclaimed chef. So be a sage and don’t let thyme get the better o f you. Clean up that skillet and put some spice into your life by keeping in touch with “ Cordon Bleu — Food for Thought” . Your mom will thank us both. Until our next rendez-vous, try this one on for size. Designed for the long voyages between the Bronfman and Mac. Med. .

ed to leave, the lieutenant opened his eyes wide and said, “ Please don’t go. What can I do for you, young man?” Paul Lene’s eyes were hidden behind his long hair. “ 1 hate to bother you, sir,” he said anxiously. “ But I’m in lots of trouble — over something I didn't do!” “ What's your problem, son?” asked the lieutenant, as he attempted to scan the worried face before him. “ I am the head cashier at the cafeteria in the Union Building. Pm responsible for all the money that passes through the hands o f the cashiers under me.” Lieutenant Thompson watched Paul Lene as he spoke. “ This morning,

about one hundred dollars was stolen from our cash registers. The money was stolen right after I had counted it. As I was counting the money, Mr. Morrison, our assistant manager came up from behind me and said to close all the cash registers immediately. He was acting kind o f weird.” “ W hat happened after that?” Lieutenant Thompson asked kindly. “ Well, later, when Mr. Davies, the manager of the cafeteria, came in, Mr. Morrison ran to him shouting, 'Sir, Paul has stolen all the money we made today. I saw him do it.’ I tried to de fend myself, but Mr. Davies would on ly listen to Mr. Morrison. And Mr. continued on page 13

He asked Mr. Morrison how he knew the money had been stolen. "F or the past few weeks, money has been disappearing from our cash registers — just disappearing in thin air,” said the assistant manager, casting his arms in the air emphatical ly.

T h e N etw o rk Fall continued from page 10 series from some years back. In this past year, we have seen a lot o f copyng o f old classics (as if they didn’t already have enough models with Dallas and Knight Rider). I've yet to see one copyshow renewed for a second season much less last through a whole one. The reason why television has turned to its past is syndication. Syndication involves, by and large, the selling o f old programs to be rerun. Since the classics never really go away, they re main very influential. Many cable and independent sta tions run such programs, and very suc cessfully at that. So if it*s worked once...

OPENS SEPTEMBER 21ST AT THE LOEWS THEATRE * COARSE LANGUAGE

What the networks have to realize is that they are supposed to be the ones with the fresh ideas. Their viewer-ship has not dropped as dramatically as everyone said it would when cable and the video cassette recorders (or VCRs) were introduced. But cable television has started picking up where the large networks haVe been leaving off. They do this by producing new and often ex perimental shows. MTV and Much Music a rt the most apparent examples. So, until the television industry starts showing more ingenuity and creativity (and they aren't doing very much o f that with their new lineups), we are bound to keep seeing so-called new shows come and go within the blink o f an eye. They might just be set ting up for their own downfall.

1 * SPORTS RedSocs Top Tourney by T a b ic Chlo* Aizeki The most important quality in a Championship team is a “ winning spirit,” and the 1984 McGill Soccer Redmen squad has it. They exemplified this vital disposition by topping the tough Carleton Ravens 2-1 in overtime, winning the McGill Invitational Tour nament held on September 7-9. Also participating in the tourney were the University o f New Brunswick Red Raiders, who along with Carleton fell two goals short of attaining their respective league crowns last season, and Providence College from Rhode Island. The round-robin tournament was scored on a point system — 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie, and 0 for the losing team. Before the deciding bout on Sunday, McGill was one point short of Carleton. The Ravens scored early in the first half, as a free kick bounced into the net off Redmen keeper Aldo Braccio’s chest. Mortified, McGill snapped back with a beautiful goal a few minutes later, as forward Graham Butcher blasted in a Marc Noe cross from the right. From there on, the Redmen took control of the game, but were unable to capitalize on various scoring oppor tunities. At one point in the second half, a shot by Butcher rebounded sharply off the crossbar. The rebound shot by Noe missed the crossbar by in ches. The Ravens shot their arms up in the air in jubilation at the whistle at the end of the regulation game, unknowing of the two brutal five-minute overtime periods in store for them. In the fourth minute of the first overtime, spirited McGill captain GuyMarie Joseph tapped in the winning goal — and it became McGill's turn to wave their arms in the air. The Reds skipped a heartbeat in the dwindling minutes of the second OT, however, as McGill goalie Paul Desbarrats stepped over the line with the ball, resulting in a Raven free kick near the goal mouth. The undaunted Redmen put up a fine defensive effort, crushing Carleton's final attempt at a tie score. In an earlier match, Providence defeated UNB 14), coming in third behind Carleton. Last place UNB ap peared lackluster compared with their fine performance last year, coming up with nil points in the tourney. The Redmen rookies appear to be a talented bunch, and most put in 2009b in this tourney. Oyer-zealous playing resulted in some confusion in the mid field, but again, this is characteristic of most teams in the early season. Nine Redmen veterans are back from last year — defenders Guy-Marie Joseph and Alistair MacDonald; goalies Aldo Braccio and Paul Desbar rats; midfielders Marc Noe, Valerio Gazzola and Kevin Taweel; and for wards Peter BUement and Mike MacBain. In addition forwards Scott Greene and Graham Butcher are back from the 1982 National Champion squad. After five years of service and three National Championship bouts with the Redmen, former star halfback John

D’Ambrosio is back with the team as assistant coach, replacing Robert Tipney. During the Carleton match, D’Ambrosio looked on wistfully at times, confessing “ It's strange wat ching the team play. Sometimes, it can be frustrating — I want to get on the field!” However, John admitted that his new position with the team gives him great joy. ” 1 can pass on to the team what I’ve learned...give the team what they've given to me in the past, and that's ‘experience’. What I’ve learned from winning the two national titles is to ‘push to the last second.” He summed up, ‘‘I encourage the new players to want to W IN It works — hey, it worked today.” That, ladies and gentlemen, is ‘‘win ning spirit” .

Homecoming Game On The Horizon by Ben Adolph The big Red invasion is coming, and no Mr. Reagan, it is not the Russions, or even an acid-rain lobby from Ot tawa; it is the McGill University Redmen taking on the Queen’s Golden Gads (whatever that is) at Molson Stadium. The game is on Saturday, Sept. 22, at 1:00p.m. The Redmen may be using the Tribune's bi-lingual strategy, hope to get even after last season's loss to Queens in the con ference final. Queens went on to the Vanier Cup Finals, but a more mature McGill side should be all set for revenge. \ The first home game is of course the Homecoming Game, when alumni and recent grads return, partying and parading runs on endlessly, and society embarks on the tradition of doing one more “ for the Gipper” .

Redmen Alphabetize Gees*Gees by G i n C unningham

The McGill Football Redmen raised the curtain on their 1984 campaign with a convincing 17-8 victory over the University of Ottawa Gee-Gees Satur day afternoon in the Nation’s Capital. McGill rode the trailwinds of three Glenn Miller field goals that proved to be the margin of victory. Known as “ Mr. Reliable” for his clutchcatching, “ Cookies” has shown he can be relied upon for some key kicking. As well he hit on three of four and add ed a single and a P.A.T. on Saturday. Quaterback Jaimie Crawford also had a big day as he filled the air with footballs in another display of outstan ding accuracy. Crawford connected for over 330 yards on the day including a 24-yard scoring strike to pesky widereceiver Ray Lalonde who shone with several nifty grabs. Other bright lights in a marquee were running-back Andy Holman who proved to be the irresistible force with several sorties into enemy territory and Fullback Mike Sanham who lived up to his billing as the best-blocking back in the conference with several bonerattling hits that sprung the rampaging tumbleweed that was Holman. As well the offensive enjoyed an outstanding afternoon as they afforded Crawford “ all day protection” . Tight end Myles Druckman enjoyed another of his wondrous outings. “ Miracle Myles” contributed his usual array of “ uncatchable” receptions and laid out a bagful of crunching blocks. If there ever was a negative element to the offensive exploits of the Red and White on this day it was in penalties.

Activities Nite ’84

Time and again big gainers were called back (including two touchdowns) because of what Coach Charlie Baillie labelled “ avoidable penalties.” A plethora of flags had Baillie cautioning “ if we don’t improve in this area (Penalties) it will cost us.” Along with the offensive heroics McGill’s rock-ribbed defensive unit established the superiority with a spirited display of swarming defense. Power-packed linebacker Cliff Wilson established the mood of furious intensity with another of his patented appearances. Captain Cliffs “ gunghoism” is well noted throughout the league and the Redmen followed his lead. Returning stalwart linebacker Steve Niles had an exceptional outing. Seemingly he returned to the lineup with a vengeance. Fellow linebackers Philippe Sicotte and Francois Jovin had strong outings as well as the entire front-wall, notably D.E. Don Bums. Steve Baillie sparked a secondary that was brilliant in shutting down the vaunted Ottawa aerial game (save for one long one). The Redmen are back in action Saturday afternoon as they lay out the mat for old nemesis Queen’s Golden Gaels. McGill-Queen’s matchups have traditionally been classic encounters. Just ask “ Miracle Myles” , he will have one game to refer to. Tickets are available at the Stadium on Saturday or by calling the General Office at 392-4725. It’s the best deuce you can spend.
