Plans for A thletic Facility D o o m ed

Athletes Meet Their Match by Brian Forsythe Todd Although the plans for the new athletics facilities (pictured at right) have been in the hands of the Students’ Society since early last sem ester, the future o f the facilities hangs in mid-air. Last year in a spring referendum students voted in favour of a proposal giving $4 mil­ lion towards the construction of a fieldhouse to update the dilapitated athletic facil­ ities on Pine A venue. The plans for the field-house include a 186m track, a swim­ ming pool, tennis courts, racquetball courts and squash courts, as well as other facilities. H ow ever, student representation on the committees to decide the future of the facili­ ties has, to date, failed to progress beyond the existing plans. Several important ques­ tions remain unanswered. The athletics referendum contained a clause which said that if no progress was made by 1984, the money would go into renovations. The present facilities, which date from the late 1930's, are judged by some to be the worst in Canada and a sorry state­ ment for a university of McGill’s size and prestige. The Project Group, in charge of translating the students’ desires for new facil­ ities into actual buildings, has yet to meet since the appointment of the student repre­ sentative, Bruce Hicks. Mr. Hicks has announced that he is planning to go to recently-appointed Group member Dean of

Students Stevenson to ask him to support a letter calling for a Project Group meeting. The letter is addressed to the head of the Project Group, Sam Kingdon, who is also director of Physical Resources. Hicks wishes to raise concerns voiced by athletic groups that the 186m track is not long enough and perhaps an additional expenditure of $1 million is needed to pro­ vide a cantilevered 200m track. Students are also concerned about the size of the tennis

courts planned for the field-house. As out­ lined in the plan it would appear that the courts will not be regulation in size. A users group has been set up to examine the project in greater detail and report their concerns to the Project Group and with the Athletics Department. With $4 million of an estimated $7 million building-cost coming from students directly, it is important that some student input be accepted. However, the University at this

S.I.R. Faces Setback The Student Initiated Referendum to make D aily fees optional was presented with an unpleasant surprise last week. Co-organizers Jeff Zimskind and Dave Ford thought that they had met the requirement for names facilitating presentation to the D a ily’s Chief Returning Officer, they discovered however that a substantial number of the names were missing. “Some of the signature sheets were stolen. We presently have only about 200 names”, said Zimskind. Monday (yesterday) is the deadline but we’re going to go all out now. We’ll be in the U nion and up in Residence on Thursday and Friday (last Thursday and Friday) to get the names we need. 1 still have confidence that we’ll make it”. Although the details of the heist are not known, obvious interests were being pro­ tected.

“1 don’t want to implicate anybody”, cau­ tioned Zimskind. “Some petitions that were full or nearly full that were handed out never made it back. Sheets that had been account­ ed for can somehow not be found”. When asked about the less-than-loving Valentine greeting in the Daily, Zimskind said, “well what do you think?” V. /. R. Passes First Test The petition to make D aily fees optional has finally been submitted. Briefly, it looked bleak for the organizers of the campaign as approximately 250-300 of the original signa­ tures collected in the first three days of the effort somehow disappeared. A strong effort over the last week however, resulted in a virtual avalanche of signatures which brought the total up to about 680, well above the 500 names required to bring the issue to referen­ dum.

Bill 111 by Joanne Bayly Benjie Trister (V.P. External), in a press release last week, expressed the “deep con­ cern of the Students’ Society with the unjust manner in which the Government of Quebec has handled the curfent contractual dispute with the members of the teaching-profes­ sion.” Students’ Society believes that this leg­ islation, Bill 111, is “contrary to both the Canadian Constitution and the Quebec Charter of Rights. The implementation of

such measures can only damage the quality of education in our schools, colleges and universities.” The press release, which urged the Gov­ ernment to resume negotiations with the striking teachers, was sent to Rene Levesque, Gerard Levesque, and Education Minister, Camille Laurin. Students’ Society, by means of this press release, is standing behind the. rights of teachers in Quebec.

The question itself involves amendments to the D aily constitution that would make paying of fees to the D aily optional rather than mandatory. This move, says Jeff Zims­ kind movement organizer, “would give the students indirect editorial control of the now autonomous D aily by signalling the D aily of their collective approval or disapproval.” Zimskind continued, “as it stands now, the D aily forces students to pay for what they (the D aily) want to print.” At this point, the petitions got to the D ai­ ly ’s Chief Returning Officer for a constitu­ tionality decision. This decision, if appealed, would bring the question to the D aily’s Judi­ cial Committee for a final ruling. If then approved, the proposition would be on the ballot as a referendum in the next Student Society Election in March. If.this point is reached, a simple majority of at least 15% of the student body would pass the question. On the issue of participation, Zimskind says,“It’s crucial that everyone vote - this is no time for apathy.” Art Beewald

point appears to want to circumvent rather than work with students, says Hicks. The U niversity and the student body share a desire to see the athletics facilities built and yet no progress is made. What is the delay? Why can’t students and administration co­ operate to see that this collective goal is reached? These q uestions remain unans­ wered as time runs down on the game-clock for the new athletic facilities.

Students to Vote by Gregg Gibbons At the Students’ Society meeting on Wed­ nesday night it was decided that the question o f w hether M cG ill should rejoin ANEQ ( A ssociation N ationale des Etudiants du Québec) should be put to a referendum. Ear­ lier in the year McGill withdrew its member­ ship because, according to VP External Ben­ jie Trister, of ANEQ’s “inability to effec­ tively dissem inate inform ation, lack of financial regulations, and its limited mem­ bership.” The purpose of ANEQ is to repres­ ent as many of the students as possible, in both CEGEPs and universities, in relations between students and the government. But Trister stated that ANEQ’s main concern was the betterment of ANEQ interests. With its withdrawal, McGill hoped to prod ANEQ into becoming more representative of the students in Quebec.-Apparently this tactic worked. Since M cGill withdrew, ANEQ has becom e very vocal against government cutbacks in education, has pro­ vided more documentation in English, and has shown a willingness to change its voting structure to be more representative (accord­ ing to the number of students each member has). W hile M cGill was not a member of ANEQ, it tried to unify the students in Quebec. But, according to Trister, there is no

H om ophobia

PRO

by Colin McGregor Students like myself, being curious creatures, have millions of incisive questions bouncing around our cranal cavities that demand answers. For example, why won’t the Red Brigades kidnap Gary Coleman? Was Casper the Friendly Ghost actually Richie Rich before he died? Why do they call him Mr. Dress-Up? Who (except for a fireman) would name their kid ‘Charro’? Today another question awaits a sudden and determinate answer. What is ‘homophobia’? The papers are full of it. The papers are also full of it—demonstrations against homophobia at Bishop’s, rampant homophobia at McGill, homophobics on StudSoc, here a homophobic, there a homophobic, everywhere a homophobic - but what are they? None of my friends knew, so 1 looked it up in the dictionary. It wasn’t there but other words closely resembling it wefe. Words like homogeneous, homologize, homoplasmy (yecch)...the page was full of homos. One possible root word did catch my eye, however, and in fact I am now convinced that the meaning of the term homophobia is inexorably lined with the word homogen­ ize. These people hate milk. Not any direct product of a cow’s udder, mind you. No, these homophobics are fussy; they hate homogenized milk. The dictionary defines it as (and I quote) “Milk in which the particles are so finely divided and emulsified that the cream does not separate on standing.” (I’ve stopped quoting) As St. Augustine always said, (I’m going to start quoting ---- it&Sffi again) “1 am an obese 12th Century monk.” (Stopped quoting) And upon further analysis, never being one to prevaricate and realizing fully that to be inebriated with the exuberance of one’s own verbosity is a sin that casts manachean aspersions upon even the most supercilious of logical diatribes, I agree. Homophobia makes sense. They’re tampering with your cream before it reaches the table, breakingdown the poor little particles on behalf of the great big powerful ones. Censorship! Dairy capitalism! As Bob Cadman says every week in front of dozens of high schoolers, “Who am 1 for 40 points?” (And indeed, who is Bob Cadman?) People are interfering with the natural interaction that occurs between a person’s stomach and the milk which flows from mother nature’s very own creation, the cow. Cows are much more intelligent than they are given credit for - for example, did you know that they all face the same way in fields for religious reasons? True, they are excluded from all of the best clubs, and when one moves next to you, you can be relatively sure^hat you’re living in a sparsely-populated rural area. They make poor party guests, chewing on the furniture and rarely demonstrating a marked familiarity with how to use an escargot fork. And how can you feed'something with four stomachs at a buffet? But if Tintoretto can paint them without a filter, then I can drink from them wfthout mandatory homogenization. Adolph Hitler, Nazi Dictator and 3-time Bob Hope Desert Classic winner, made the Germans homogenize their milk. Doesn't that tell you something? Is there a casual connection there? Hume says that there are no casual connections in the Universe, so I don’t need any anyway. Besides, my article and the arguments contained therein have the gift of clarity. And believe me, homophobia is here to stay - and a good thing it is, too. Good luck, Mark.

CON

by M ark W eintraub Colin, 1 hope you’ve learned your lesson. See what happens when little boys play with dictionar­ ies? They get all tangled up in high-sounding words and pseudo-intellectual phrases. They begin to sound pompous and their friends won’t play snow-commandos with them anymore. Little Suzy Loohoo turns up her nose when they pull out their plastic stethescopes and playtex surgical gloves to play doctor. And when little boys play not only with dictionaries but with philosophy too, they get badly confused and making embarrassing mistakes. They reveal to their readers why it was that their rejection from Harvard came on clown stationary with dozens o f‘Mr. YUK.’ stickers plastered in the margins, and why it began “Dear Applicant: Are you for real, or what?” They make it clear just how it is possible for someone to score lower on their EEG than that bowl of green Jello. (Colin. You should be working in your speller on reading Mr. Whiskers. Put daddy's dictionary back on the shelf). As far as this obsessive fear of homo milk goes, I’m at a loss. Y ou refer to cows (or ‘moo-moos’ as you like to call them when you ride in the country with mom and dad, the drool abundant on your chin, your ice-cream cone firmly planted on the window and your 7i rattle-wielding paw doing severe damage to the cat). 1 can understand 'k J 'ey . your sympathy with the Heifers. After all, they too have their bellies rubbed by strapping, toothless farmhands (only they usually take them one at a time). But the rest is a mystery. You ignore several reasons why homo milk is not to be feared but enjoyed: In the first place, homo milk alone is capable of lining your stomach. Thanks to homo, when peer pressure drags you out drinking with the boys, you won’t end up redecorating the bar with your dinner. As Friday night proved, Colin has yet to learn this secret. (By the way Colin, 1 saw her and she hopes you’re feeling better and not worrying about her dress, since the cleaner got the stains out). Finally. Homo milk is the best thing to have pass through your nose when a friend makes you laugh while drinking. Pop lacks the visual effect and whiskey would leave a hole in your forehead the size of a basketball. But of course this debate over milk is beside the point. For homophobia has nothing to do with milk. As any half-wit knows, homophobia is the fear of homeopaths. Organic doctors, herbal practioners that is. And the sixties are over, so the ones not dead are living in California. Therefore, fearing.them is silly. End of argument.

APOLOGY 1 suggest this or a similar text to cover the “ The T ribune did not intend any negative implications, in its last issue, as to the ways, “divest" part of the article. Remember, our methods, aims and personalities of members committee is u p set... of theSouth Africa Committee, ofthosewho Signature illegible, support and prom ote divestm ent from For SAC. South African related business in general. Any negative im plications are very much Ed. Point well taken. regretted.”

McGill Tribune-Who We Are by Gregg Gibbons The M cG ill T ribune is “the official publi­

cation of the Students’ Society of McGill University. Our objectives are, according to our constitution, “To communicate to the members (of McGill University) the activi­ ties of the Society and its committee by guar­ anteeing a communications outlet to the elected leaders of the Society, To inform members of the structure and internal work­ ings of the Society, To stimulate members to become involved in extracurricular activi­ ties, To keep members informed to the af­ fairs of the University governing bodies and their committees as well as external issues which are of interest to the members, To provide a forum for members to express their opinions on matters of concern to the membership, To communicate information of a general nature which is deemed of inter­ est to the membership.” But who are we? We are a group of stu­ dents who take pride in their work and who try to provide the students of McGill with an interesting paper on things relative to McGill. If you compare a Trib issue of last semester with one from this semester, the differences between the two are clearly seen.

One difference is'that there are more ads. With the Students’ Society decree that we must break even with every issue, each eightpage issue must have four pages of ads to break even. With a twelve-page issue, it’s almost six pages. It is more difficult because one must work around the ad space, but we feel that the quality of The Trib has not suffered. And to those who would have you believe that we continue “to lose money and (are) well on the way to a monumental deficit” (T he M cG ill Daily, vol. 72, no. 68, p. 4)...How is it possible to be running into deficit spending when we haven’t even spent the money that was budgeted for us by the Students’ Society?? Perhaps someone should get his facts straight. There is one problem, however. We don’t get any student feedback. We want to know what the students think about us. What are our strong points? Our weak points? Where could we improve? Tell us by dropping off a note in our mailbox at the Students’ Society general office near Sadie’s I or come up to 4 1 1 in the Union and tell us in person. We can’t be a paper you like to read unless we know what you want to hear about.

Peter Dotsikas: Doing His Damn Best by Brian Forsythe Todd T h is is th e la s t in th e s e rie s o f f i v e interview s w tih th e E xecutive C o m m ittee o f th e S t u d e n t s ’ S o c ie ty . T o d a y ’s s p e a k e r is Peter D otsikas, Vice-President (U niversity A ffairs). Tribune: The fir s t question we w o u ld like y o u to a n s w e r is to g iv e u s a th u m b n a il sketch o f Peter D otsikas.

D otsikas: I was born in Greece and my parents moved to Canada when I was three. They lived in Toronto and have lived there since then. 1 went to school at U pper Canada College in Toronto where I became fairly involved early. 1 was involved in a number of sports teams, debating and music. I tried to get as involved as possible here, too, in a short period of time, I enjoy music. I enjoy sports of all kinds. I w as on an intra­ mural football team, and 1 am also playing presently for an intramural basketball team.

I wish 1 could get involved a bit in debating and a little more music like 1 was in high school but time doesn't permit it nowadays. Tribune: Y our experience w ith the jo b o f V.P. (U niversity A ffairs), there have been som e achievem ents a n d d isa p p o in tm en ts?

Dotsikas: Due to the nature of my position, most of the things begin to happen around this time of year. Senate is the governing body of the university. They set the policy on admission and academic issues. They work through committees and reports from com­ mittees. A lot of those reports start coming in just about now, reports from last year, reports from the first semester. And its not until the last few months of the school year where we begin to get into the thick of things. There is a number of issues that have come up under my portfolio that I’ve dealt with. The bookstore was probably our biggest achievement for myself and for the whole

Journalism & the D aily by Len Goldberg In the words of Osborn Elliot, Dean of Columbia University’s School of Journal­ ism, the primary principle by which thejournalist must abide is “An open mind a wil­ lingness to learn, and the knowledge that things are not always what they seem to be. In a word objectivity - the journalist’s most fundamental principle. Too often, this principle is given mere lip service in a disregarded constitution, the meaning of objectivity fades into oblivion, and the practice of journalism degenerates into an exercise in regurgitating stale, pre­ conceived notions! This aptly summarizes the situation we are facing at the McGill Daily. At the Daily, the ideological preconcep­ tion is an accepted norm. Matters and events are seen through the distorting lens of ideol­ ogy, so that what is usually reflected in the pages of the Daily is one side of what are often many-sided issues. Granted, there is legitimacy in much of what they have to say, presenting assessments and information not always found in the commercially controlled media. The point is, the Daily has become utterly predictable in its rigid adherence to doctrinate beliefs. 1n short, there ismo appreciable considera­ tion of the “other” side, even when divergent viewpoints represents not a right wing stance but rather a moderate approach not implicit­ ly calling for change in the Social order. It is this stated constitutional objective of the McGill Daily, to act “...as an agent of social change” that builds an inherent bias into the paper’s structure...The key phrase is in article 2.1 of the Statement of Principles: “The staff of this newspaper recognizes that a class society exists in Canada, and the important role the post-secondary institu­ tion plays in maintaining the existing social order.” Clearly, these people cannot rest until they have changed “the existing social order.” What in fact has the Daily achieved in respect to promoting social change? It is my argument that far from being an agent of social change, the Daily has at most been an agent of social stagnation and more frequently of social regression. The Daily seeks to perform an “educative” function, to enhance the student’s awareness of the exploitation and inequity in the social order. It hopes to mobilize students against the Establishment. In reality, the Daily’s greatest achievement is in encouraging ideo­ logical polarization on campus. The Daily’s lack of journalistic credibility not only hardens reactionary forces, but more signifi-

cantly it evokes a conservative reaction among many students who are in a suscep­ tible position, a kind of ideological limbo. In other words, the Daily’s blatant incred­ ibility alienates many of those students who are searching for values and ideology which to align themselves with. “I f’, they may say to themselves, “this is what the left has to offer me—rigid, close-minded attitudes, I have no desire to join the cause of social change.” A polarization necessarily draws people away from the center, and it is evident from innumerable chats and interviews that most are drifting anywhere but towards the left. Institutions such as the McGill Daily are a thorn in the side of what they claim to be a part of, liberalism and humanism. The Daily editors, in response to criticism, I may implore individuals to “come down and contribute an article if you have a gripe.” They say this secure in the knowledge that the vast majority will not contribute articles. Save for the acceptance of a few token arti­ cles in the mostly vain attempt to convey an image of accessibility, articles at the Daily are not accepted unless they promote “social change.” In sum, many I must emphasize that my critique derives not, from an ideological standpoint. It is from the standpoint of an aspiring journalist who realizes the tre­ mendous power and influence of the media. It can be used to advance the cause of human rights, to expose corruption, exploitation and inequity. While much of the media is Constrained from doing this by self-interest-’ ed commercial controls, there are credible and recognizéd outlets .with sufficient auto­ nomy to achieve this. The Daily is such an institution. They have the choice of either continuing to defer credibility to ideology, which is a regressive approach as argued, or to use the Daily as the progressive and in­ fluential tool it has the potential to be.

executive. The bookstore hadn’t been oper­ ating as well for the last couple of years because of our representation on it. This year we threw all our support and all our weight into it so that we could find a solution to the problem. The bookstore will be keeping 2% of the profits for their operating budget and what’s left over will be given to the Students’ Society. If there is a major project to be undertaken by the bookstore then Students’ Society will sort out whether it is in the best interest of students. The next thing we have been working on is the responsibilities and obligations of the university to student^. It is going to be a charter of student rights unlike any other that is at a university in Canada. It should be ready for circulation sometime in late Feb­ ruary, so that way we can get some feedback from students on how they feel before it ac­ tually gobs to Senate. This character will clarify student rights within the University. Right now we have a very archaic system, as far as rights go. Probably the most serious problem that my portfolio is facing right now is a Dentis­ try grievance case that has been in limbo since last year. Recently we won a major battle in an attempt to solve the problem once and for all, upholding an old decision made by Senate that would make the whole procedure a lot quicker and in my opinion more just. Disappointments? Probably the greatest disappointment I’ve had this year has been a realization that I’ve had. probably too late, about various students’ views on executive committee and my position and myself. One of the things a lot of students don’t realize is that there is a lot more to the executive

committee than is made public by the var­ ious newspapers on campus. I’m referring to one in particular. I know that the D aily has built up a reputation, for instance, of the infamous executive committee that has no regards for students. Students have to understand that we are doing our damn bèst and I believe we are doing it well. I’m proud of this executive and the work that each individual puts into it. When I find there are certain references made to us in various publications using pro­ fanity in order to describe us then 1 think you are being unjust. We are not full-time, highpaid executives with nothing else to do. We are mostly students and doing this as a parttime job so to speak. And believe me the pay is not even worth mentioning. Some of us have to take an extra semester or an extra year. Our marks take a beating, our personal lives and peace is disturbed. Friendships come under a strain and enemies are created. Tribune: B ut there are som e rewards fro m the job?

Dotsikas: There have been rewards. I’ve learned a lot. I’ve learned a lot about stu­ dents, about myself, about dealing with the administration and about diplomacy. In my job the key word is diplomacy. You have to watch how you deal with the various people involved in student government and the uni­ versity administration. You have to main­ tain your credibility. You have to also be very reasonable in your demands. You’re only here for a year. The administration knows that. They are here for 10, 20, or 30 years. You should go for small,gains every year. One, two or three small things that you work hard and concentrate your efforts on. c o n t in u e d o n p a g e 5

The Laughing Stock by Brenda Bloomstone Louis Rakita is a McGill English major stu­ dent who spends some of his free time with the Comedy Player’s Club called “The Laughing Stock”. Trib: H ow d id the C om edy C lub originate? Rakita: It was formed in the fall of ’81 by Mike Harwood who is now President. Mike gathered people together to produce a comedy group which would be an alternative to Player’s Theatre and Tuesday Night Café. Trib: W ho can jo in the C om edy Club? Rakita: It’s open to anyone who is interest­ ed. We audition not only on the basis of how talented you are but how enthusiastic and how much energy you can put into the group. Trib: Do the m em bers really expect to be­ com e com edians?

Rakita: Not necessarily. But most of them

would like to perform in a comedy show. Trib: H o w m a n y m em b ers are y o u at the m o m m en t:

Rakita: We are six performing members (4 males, 2 females), a few technical people and other writers. T rib: W here does y o u r g roup get their m ate­ rial? Is it based on true to life experiences or do they ju s t suddenly get inspired?

Rakita: We are the ones who write the mate­ rial. Usually everyone writes his/her own material. Each person has his own writing style. Some come up with ideas for their sketch very quickly, others have to nurture the ideas for awhile. Trib: H o w long is a sketch? Rakita: It is usually not longer than three or four minutes. Pace is very important in a comedy show. It has to be fast or the au­ dience will lose interest.

Trib: W hen y o u say a com edy show , is it one co m ed ia n at a tim e w ho goes up or do y o u interact?

Rakita: No, it’s a comedy troupe. I guess I can compare it to Saturday Night Live. There are two people sketches, three people sketches and four people sketches. Trib: W hich k in d o f sketches are the m ost successful?

Rakita: It depends on the subject matter and the audience. Where one person will laugh at a drug oriented sketch another perr son will laugh at a pun oriented sketch. We are trying to appeal to everyone’s sense of humour. Trib: What a b o u t costum es, p ro p s and scenery?

Rakita: We keep them down to a minimum. We want to be able to have a constant flow and not have to worry about set changes and costume changes. Trib: In y o u r opinion, w hat m akes a com e­ dian fu n n y ?

Rakita: There is no set formula as to what makes a comedian funny. I’ve seen comedi­ ans on talk shows and in clubs that are simp­ ly not funny. Either they don’t have the material or they have it but are not putting it over well. Yet people are still laughing. Sometimes it’s just the look about you. If I knew what makes a person laugh then 1 would be a success by now. Trib: W hat do y o u th in k about fe m a le com ediennes?

Rakita: 1 personally have rarely ever seen a comedienne who was effective. Joan Rivers comes to mind but I don’t particularly like

her. Female comediennes just don’t seem to go over well. Female actresses who are com­ ics such as Andrea Martin can be extremely funny. There are not as many comic roles written with females in mind which 1 guess is disappointing. But we accept female come­ dians into otir comedy club. Trib: H ow do y o u see yo u r fu tu re? Rakita: There is no Montreal comedy troupe at this time. Once more people find out about us our immediate future should be taken care of. Trib: D o y o u ever discourage o f being a com edian?

Because all students have the same prob­ lems, all students believe they should have the same rights: opportunity for admission, for marks, for seeing their exams, for being able to discuss a problem with a professor and what not, we are unified.

Dotsikas: I’ve tried this year to create as many channels as possible for information, for input from various students. This year for the first time I've tried to keep close and in touch with the various Senate committees. There appears to be from the records left behind no continuity whatsoever. We haven’t had effective representation on some committees for years. This year what I’ve tried to do is to make sure there is at least one person on each committee who 1 know is responsible to keep me informed about what is going on. I’ve also sent out a mid-term report to every single student on our Senate committees and sub-committees. On that re­ port they answer various questions as to how often they attended meetings, what impor­ tant issues have come up that concern the students directly, what recommendations they have how I can help, how Students’ Society can hplp through their committees to improve the students’ position in the univer­ sity. If we are going to keep some continuity and be effective in Students’ Society it is my contention that we have to keep close ties with each other, we have to keep those chan­ nels of information and input open. If I or Students’ Society loses contact with our committees because of their negligence then we lose. I also have the names of the various stu­ dents on faculty associations who are re­ sponsible for their faculty committees. 1 have their names and I try and keep in touch with as many of them as possible, as to what happens at the faculty level because it is our belief that the Students’ Society probably has more impact on the administration than a single faculty undergraduate association. W e’ll get back to M r. D o tsika s n e x t week.

for the Devil by Rick M arin M ep h isto

Directed by Istvan Szabo Now that Istvan Szabo’s M ephisto has be­ come something of a regular feature at most of the repertory theatres (it’s playing all this month at Cinema V), there is really no ex­ cuse for not going to see this aesthetically captivating and morally provocative film. Loosely based on a 1931 novel by Klaus Mann (son of Thomas), the film follows the career of a gifted young actor named Hen­ drik H'ôfgen who craves success and recogni­ tion for his talent. He soon discovers, how­ ever, that in pre-war Germany, the price of success is political commitment. At first, it is the communist coffee-houses, cabarets, and theatre which afford H'ôfgen the opportunity to act and so he becomes a communist. Then the Nazis come to power and offer him a prestigious position in the State Theatre and so he renounces his former political sympathies and embraces the new order. When admonished by his wife and fellow actors to leave the country and take up the cause of freedom, H'ôfgen replies, “What does it matter to me who is in power? I am an actor.” So begins the rise to fame and glory and so ends the link between the man and the actor. Klaus Maria Brandauer is magnificent in his portrayal of this dichotomy in Hofgen’S character. As an actor, H'ôfgen is dynamic and powerfully charismatic - particularly in his role as Mephistopheles in Goethe's Faust (hence the title of the film). As a man, how­ ever, he is weak and empty of conviction. H is

eyes dart nervously back and forth, the fine lines of his face have a soft almost fleshy quality, and it is complained (by his aston­ ished fans) that his handshake is limp. Although it seems that H'ôfgen possesses no moral substance whatever, he is clearly not inherently evil. Neither is he simply a product of the Nazi ideology or power struc­ ture as the G'ôring-like figure of the General (played by Rolf- Hoppe) seems to be. It is simply weakness that lies behind the mask of Mephisto. This is important, since Szabo wants to create more than just another facile, moralizing “Nazi movie.” Rather, his con­ cern is to construct a study in moral weak­ ness in such a way as to evoke both distaste and sympathy. In so doing he forces us to question how we ourselves react to the kinds of temptation which enslave Hendrik H'ôf­ gen. Although historically illuninating, the film’s fundamental thematic thrust is allegor­ ical. The actor’s mask resonates with impli­ cations of duplicity, pretension, artifice, etc., and the stage serves as an ingenious form of metaphorical counterpoint for the “real life” action of the film.- Despite this allegorical orientation, the camera never assumes an overly didactic or pious perspective. Instead, it gives the impression of a kind of feverish backstaginess and a rushing nervous energy which echo the fragile imbalance of both H'ôfgen’s character and the political scenario in pre-war Germany. It is this echo of moral imbalance which resounds in the conscience after seeing M ephisto.

way to unify so many diverse groups. So, since this isn’t possible, McGill decided that it should jo in the largest group, which happens to be ANEQ . A NEQ currently represents 16 CEGEPs and 3 universities. Trister added that there are three more uni­ versities that will soon vote on referenda concerning jo in in g ANEQ. If these three pass their referenda, ANEQ’s representation would be all that much greater. If McGill joins again, it will push for a university cau­ cus so as to separate CEGEPs’ wants from those of universities when it becomes neces­ sary. As part of a province-wide student pro­ test, a demonstration has been planned for the government building in Quebec City on the 23rd of this month.

Restaurant Review by Gregg Gibbons What do you do when you’re tired of eat­ ing in but have little money? Or when your taste buds need some real zing in their lives? Get on the Metro and go to Laurier station. Then find Laurier Ave. and meander over to near St. Laurent and soon you'll be near Restaurant Da Rico, which is located at 92 Maguire. This little restaurant of about eight tables offers great authentic M exican food at affordable prices. The waiter is half owner and explains that the reason for a Mexican place was that he couldn’t find a decent Mex­ ican restaurant in Montreal and that he was getting sick of having to go all the way to Burlington, Vermont to appease his appe­ tite. Where’s the other owner? In the kitchen cooking Mexican. The meals are traditional: tacos, burritos, nachos, en ch ilad as, etc. These fall in the $4.95 to $9.95 price range. And you save more because you bring your own beer or wine. So for a nice pick-me-up on a dreary day or for an inexpensive treat spend the evening at Restaurant Da Rico. Call ahead, though, to reserve a spot. It’s well worth the trip. Restaurant Da R ico, 92 M aguire, two streets north o f Laurier at St. Laurent. 272-5850.

Frats Slave For Heart Fund by Tamara Tarasoff Fraternities are really alive on campus, and are helping to keep others that way. Last week the McGill Interfraternity Council handed a $219. cheque to the Heart Fund, the proceeds from the recent Slave Auction organized by the M.l.F.C. For the Heart Fund, it’s a step toward their annual goal of $2 million; for the frats, it’s a sign of their coming back to life. After a decade of plummeting involvement and membership, in both frats and sororities, it •seems that at McGill some of the old spirit is returning. The Slave Auction, held at Gert’s during the Winterlude festivities, is the latest example of this renewing enthusiasm. At noon on Feb. 3rd, representatives from most of McGill’s frats and sororities were sold to the highest bidder(s). Students’ Society, for the mere sum of $60., snatched up a pair of Kappas, putting them to work at Gert’s for the day. Mrs. Ostiguay, Executive Director of the Quebec Heart Fund, was surprised and delighted at receiving the cheque resulting from this benefit auction. “I’m really glad to see that the frats are coming back," she remarked. “When 1 went to McGill, I was a Gamma Phi and loved every minute of it. For the longest time though, I haven’t heard anything of my alumni branch—the spirit has really waned. It seems like things are starting to look up now once again, and the old spirit might come back.” Mrs. Ostiguay was especially pleased with the funds' raised. “The money brought in by our Heart Fund Drive goes to various areas. Research takes a major portion—at McGill right now we are supporting 12-14 researchers." It’s a worthy cause that these frats and sororities gave to, by means of their Slave Auction. And that’s not all they are up to. ‘Bop till you Drop’, the dance marathon, was partly the result of their efforts. They helped back in September with Welcome Week. Now they have been taking an active interest in the Blood Drives at McGill. They constantly hold socials and mixers. . .and who doesn’t know of these notorious pub nights and frat parties?! So McGill beware—it looks like frats and sororities are coming back in full force. With improved organization, and a bit more deserved recognition, we might just soon see a return of the Animal House days.

Red and White gets the Green Butch Trishman Preliminary reports indicate that there will, in fact, be a Red and White Revue this year. After being presented with a taste of this year’s program, a board of 18 notables decided to give the production the go-ahead. Finalized arrangements for the production still remain unsettled. Cathy Sheeran, Administrative Officer to the Dean of Students, told the Tribune, “the production will be going ahead. The general consensus was that if the producer and stage director can get along with what they have, there will be a production.” This year’s producer, Remy Marrianno,

along with his staff (Barbara Scales, Stage Director; Steve Wood, Musical Producer; et al) will make the final decision regarding the fate of the Revue. Ms. Sheeran was impressed with the people in charge of the show. “With the experience and professionalism of this year’s staff, I don’t see any problems.” The producers have all been very active with Savoy productions in the past. Over the course of the next few weeks they will plan a rehearsal schedufe and if all goes well, the Revue could go off on time. This year’s brightest spots appear to be the musical arrangements and lyrics.

M cGill Ski Team Finishes Second

by E. Goldberg “Almost” only counts in horseshoes, not hockey. And unfortunately, after their Feb­ ruary 12 hockey game, the Redmen had “al­ most” made it to the playoffs. There they were, in a dead tie for fourth place(a/k/athe final playoff spot) with l’Université du Québec à Trois Rivières. It was their last home game of the season and they were play­ ing that very same UQTR team. Talk about controlling your own destiny. But after the openings face-off was dropped, it was ob­ vious who was in control - and it wasn’t McGill, who lost by the score of 5-1 ■ Les Patriotes were definitely in control from the start, and they jumped off to a 2-0 lead after the first period. Both UQTR goals were scored by Gilles Lapointe on almost identical plays; slapshot from the face-off circle. The second period didn’t start out any better either. Les Patriotes scored twice more, both scored by Pièrre Tassé, before

McGill could get on the scoreboard. With just over two minutes remaining in the second period, Redman George Burnett rebound a shot by Gilles Hudon, to make the score 4-1 after two periods. Les Patriotes penalty killing unit was very successful in stopping the Redmen on five opportunities, although the lone Redman goal was on the powerplay. Patriotes Tassé scored the final UQTR goal just thirty-six seconds into the third period, completing his hat trick for the even­ ing. The Redmen attack never gained enough momentum to keep the game close as they simply did not play aggressive hockey. With this loss, the Redmen foiled their chances, however slight they were, of making the playoffs. Depending upon what the Ot­ tawa GeeGees do during the remainder of the season will determine whether the Red­ men finish the season in fifth place, or in last place.

Ruggers Third in Tulane Invitational by Chas The McGill Rugby Football Club returned to Montreal, Monday February 14, after completing an epic tour of New Orleans and the Bayou country. What was at stake? The pride of McGill and Canadian University rugby. The McGill first 22 arrived in New Orleans Thursday at noon and immediately took to the rugby pitch. Coach David Hardy ran the lads through their paces yet the moves and grace appeared a bit rusty. Captains Simms and McMurty decided to lift the Thursday curfew after much debate over the Friday practice time. An oiling was needed. Friday’s practice saw a return to form of the play of the fall term. The ball was moving, the backs displaying some celebrity and the pack ram­ bling and rolling. Saturday, Feb. 12: After a Friday night cur­

few, the Red and White hit the pitch at 9 a.m. to do battle against Washington University from St. Louis. Domination in the scrum led to quality possession and fast paced rugger in the backs. The Lawboys, Julian Heller and David Sinyard, provided much of the scoring punch as the former rambled from a set scrum to scpre while the latter pilfered a line out ball for the try. A cascade of tries followed with Brian Simms and Jim Halvorson getting tries in the pack while backs Perry Catellier, son Julian Loveday, and Tony Gelfand scored. And yes, Chuck gave Tony a second try in the closing minutes of play. Theo Loveday did a fine job on the conver­ sions. The Final: McGill 44 - Wash. U. O. The second match of the day was against the tournament favourites, Palmer College of Chiropracters. The “back quacks” were U.S. champs two years ago and boast a full team on rugby scholarships. McGill went into the game a bit intimidated. The first ten minutes of play were shaky and Palmer came up with 4 points on a miscue in the McGill threequarter line. Palmer continued utilizing racking tactics that began to infuriate our boys. Theo Loveday converted a penalty kick to draw McGill to within 1 point. Re­

peated runs at the opposition failed to bring more points and at the half: Palmer4 McGill 3. The second half was more of the bump and grind type rugby. Palmer scored two quick tries in the last five minutes to seal the match (and apparently the tournament) as it looked like McGill was the only team capable of Knocking off the champs. Sunday, Feb. 13: The idiosyncracies of the draw placed McGill in a battle for third place against the Univ. of Ohio at Miami. The match was never up for grabs. Tony Gelfand, Julian Loveday, and Bruno “Ariel” Wolfenzon scored tries to compliment Theo Lovedays kicking. The final McGill 21 - Ohio nil.

Of the 94 super-hardy types to capture the coureur-de-bois (gold) medal, Lyam Peyton of McGill managed to finish in decent (but as yet unconfirmed) standings. Another McGillite, Marcus Brady, succeeded in the coureur-de-bois (bronze) medal. Coach Tom Silletta was pleased with the participation shown, despite the snow condi­ tions so far this winter... Last year McGill won the Maxi Team Award, an honour bestowed upon the establishment'covering the most mileage. Howev­ er, Silletta urges that, to get the award again this year, all skiers must call in their names, bib numbers, and number of sections skied to Diane, 9 a.m.-4 p.m., at 392^4737! ! !

The Redmen Year That Was by Ace Baker The Redmen Year That Was Yup, ’twas the year that was. The dream that could’ve. The season that would’ve. The team that should’ve. And didn’t. Boy’yam 1 pissed off. O nce m o re they teased us in the early going sports fans, knocking off top-10 teams like York, Ottawa, and even, yes Concordia in the pre-season, just belting them—so convincingly that ’cher average Redmania fan (like yours truly) got all goose-pimply and tingy and thought fersure that we’d be the first college NBA franchise, or at least win a berth to the Nationals, or wouldj’a believe maybe just a silly little playoff spot...y’know, post-season play for once... NOW IS THAT ALL THAT MUCH TO ASK??? Sheesh! Aw well just for all you S & M freaks, here’s the rundown of last Tuesdays game and McGill elimination...the rest of you true and loyal sports fans please wrap me around a fish or something, ’coz you don’t deserve this. McGill at Concordia, Feb. 15/83: First half sees even ball most the way. With 5 minutes left ’til half, Concordia goes to a spread offence, and guard Craig Norman starts shooting the lights out (16 pts. first half), as the Redmen refuse to go out to the corners. When they finally do, 7’ Concordia center Rocco Marcozian tears up inside. 50-42 Concordia at halftime. Teams trade baskets for first 5 minutes of second half. Then tempers flare, in the now famous “elbow incident” where Redmen forward Willy H inz skillfully managed to wrap his entire face around the over-sized elbow of Concordia’s Gary McKeigan, white ju m p in g thro u g h th e air backw ards. Coach Staples earned himself a technical at this point for charging out to center court in the middle of play to protest. All these unfortunate going-on riled the boys sufficiently enough—they quickly fought back from an 8-pt. deficit. Manthos Katsulius (25 pts.) was playing nearly up to his capability, which is unlimited, Willy was unreal inside, and the BUS squad, led by Tamas Peredy and Bernie Rosanelli in the forecourt, were turning every loose ball or Concordia slip-up into a fast break hoop. Concordia strongman McKeigan then fouls out. Suddenly, we’re up 4 with 7 minutes left, and our fans (the Martlets) are going wild. BUT, a questionable McGill substitution seems to change the pace. A few cold bricks from outside, and a slackening‘D’, and the Stingers are back on top by 5, with 2 minutes left. Oh sure there’s lots left to tell. Like how our guys narrowed it to 2 in the final minute, and had the chance to tie icup. But I’d just as soon not talk about it...I’m, starting to feel kind of sick to my stomach... — A ce Baker is a syndicated colum nist f o r the G hetto G azette

P.S. Hey did’ja hear? The Redmen still have a slim mathematical chance! If they cream everybody left on the schedule (including Concordia) by around 90 pts., there’s a chance we’ll get ranked and even get a wildcard...see you at the Currie, Friday 8:00 vs. Bishops.

Redmen Lose Play-Off Hopes

by S.C. Marshall The weekend of February 12,13 saw beau­ tiful weather accompanying the 17th annual Canadian Ski Marathon. Over 3500 people attempted the two-day ski from Lachute to Ottawa; 36 of them were from McGill. One of our teams, entered in the ‘mixed touring’ class, finished second out of about 40 teams. These pros are: David Bennett, Willa Burgess, Tony Gray, and Andre Laplante. Between the 4 of them, they did 360 miles. The winning.team, rumored to have been made up of some ex-National team members did a total of 380 miles. All in all, McGill was represented by nine teams of four people each, in the touring class, and another six or so in the individuals’ coureur-de-bois classes.

S tu d en ts’ S o c ie ty REFERENDUM___________ A p p licatio n s a re hereb y c a lle d for M em bers to form “No” Co m m ittees For the following Referendum Q u estio n s ‘Yes" committees already exist by virtue of those persons who proposed the questions in the first place. We are therefore calling for members to form "No" committees for the following referendum questions which will be voted upon March 9,1983.

1. FINANCES

Do you approve of: a. A fee increase of $3.00 per semester, from $10.00 to $13.00 for students registered in the faculties of Law, Dentistry, Medicine and Graduate Studies, and; b.

Afee increase of $2.00 per semester, from $6.75 to $8.75 for part-time undergraduate students. YES

NO

by S.C. Marshall Well, it’s finally over. Redmen Hockey (or, as they’re also known, Redhocs) have finally finished their ’82-’83 season. At last. Why so dismal? Well, 30 games later, the final tally is a pretty sad 11 and 19 (win and loss) record. They won just over 1/3 of their games. They placed at or near the bottom of their 6-team QUAA league all year, and, needless to say, they never made it to the C1AU (national) top ten rankings. But shining brightly in the midst of all this doom and gloom is some good news: two McGill stars, outstanding as they proved to be, have been chosen fof the QU AA All-Star team. These are two players chosen from McGill to represent the QU AA in all its fin­ est against All-Star teams from other leagues. Our two McGillites honoured with this dec­ oration are the top scorer in Quebec, Redmen rookie forward George Burnett, and

continued from page 10 As one can see by looking over the team selections, the three top teams have 3 or 4 All-Star players apiece. The puzzle lies with­ in the McGill A ll-Star/QU AA rankings dis­ crepancy.

We have two All-Stars in our lineup, one of them the top scorer in the QUAA and a past QUAA Athlete-of-Week, and yet we’re on the very bottom of the overall rankings. How can this be? Watching a practice or a game, nothing much seems out-of-place. But

under pressure (and sometimes not under pressure) the whole show breaks down. The defence crumbles, the offence gets clumsy, and the goalkeeper slips into slow-motion. Maybe they’re on drugs. Maybe they take lessons from the Canadiens. Maybe they need new team shirts. Maybe they should arrange to have their opponents’ shirts lost or forgotten before each game—and have them wear those slimy intramural jerseys. It worked once...

16* 16 15 14

Enough analysis. Suffice it to say that McGill can’t win at everything...If all our teams won like the Soccer Redmen, why we’d be bombed or something. And if the Redhocs are taking lessons from the Canadiens, maybe they’ll pick up some good tricks from them for next year... Going for the ’83-’84 Playoffs for sure, eh guys?!
