Heaping Scorn On Tories by Stephen Hum Far from heaping praise on Canada’s new Progressive Conser vative administration, the speaker at a Nov. 27 meeting co-sponsored by McGill’s Central America Action Group and NDP McGill characterized members of Brian Mulroney’s cabinet as front men for American strategic aims in the third world. Dan Heap, NDP MP for the downtown Toronto riding of Spadina, best known as the man who twice “ put the boots” to Jim Coutts, Pierre Trudeau’s principal secretary, spoke for an hour on his experiences as on unofficial observer of last month’s na tional electons in Nicaragua where the ruling Sandinistas were confirmed in office. “ There was a bona fide act of choice,” Heap declared in response to charges that the elections were not free ones. Said Heap in an oblique reference to the overthrow of the coun try’s ossified Somoza dynasty six years ago, “ this act of choice was not their first, but the onè most easily recognizable by our own experience.” Heap, who spent a week leading up to and including election day in Nicaragua with Gerald Caplan, former NDP federal secretary, said that, as far as he could see, opposition parties which wished to participate did so — with minimal harassment and even

help from the Sandinistas who provid ed free air time. The MP, who speaks no Spanish, reported that according to what he gleaned from his Spanish-speaking sources the main opposition paper La Prensa was given a free hand to “ talk about how wicked the government was” . Heap admitted that censorship was not absent in Nicaragua, but he likened it to Canada’s during the Se cond World War. “ Nicaragua is undergoing invasion by over 10 000 contras trained and armed by the CIA.” “ They were more concerned with the process than the actual results.” said Heap in reference to the manner in which the voting was conducted. “ It was accomplished in a friendly, neighbourly way.” In the end over 93% of those eligible were registered to vote and 83% of those registered voted, returning the Sandinistas with over 60% of the vote, roughly the same percentage as Ronald Reagan’s victory around the same time, as Heap noted. The United States seems unable to accept “ that the government of Nicaragua is controlled by no one but the Nicaraguans.” remarked Heap. He accused the U.S. of trying to create a “ Gulf of Tonkin” incident with the report of Soviet MIGs arriving in Nicaraguan ports. “ Reagan’s logic is simple. Nicaragua

Secondhand Textbook Sale — The Return Of by Shanely Allen If you’re wondering what to do with all those books- from last year that you just don’t want to keep, or how to af ford all those texts your second term professors are about to assign, the Se cond Hand Textbook Sale has the answer. This year, for the first time in a number of years, the Booksale will be held again in the second term. That means you now have the chance to save even more money than before, and pick up some profits from your old books, too. An activity of McGill Students’ Society, the Second Hand Textbook Sale has been organized and run by McGill Christian Followship since 1979. Books in all fields are accepted on consignment; the seller sets his or her own price, usually from 20% to 50% below the current selling price. After the Sale, money is reimbursed to sellers for all books sold, less 10% for operating expenses. All unsold books are returned to the sellers as well. Chances of selling your books are fairly high, especially if they are on c u rre n t re a d in g lists or are acknowledged reference books in the field. Thick science texts and texts for large first year intro courses sell par ticularly well. There is also a large selection of English, sociology, an thropology and political science books

for avid readers. Other fields range from management to art history, Urdu to engineering, medecine to philosophy and education to computer science. Though the Booksale is not run for a profit, money and books are often left over after students have been reimburs ed and expenses have been paid. As in dicated in the terms of sale, this is all donated to charity. Past donations have gone to such organizations as Welcome Hall, a mission which pro vides food, shelter and other necessities for poverty stricken men in downtown Montreal; McGill Bookfair, an annual booksale organized by McGill alumni to raise funds for scholarships to McGill; and World Vision, and inter national organization working for development in third world nations. Next term’s Booksale will once again be held in room B09/10 of the Student Union Building. Books will be ac cepted for sale January 7-10 and sold January 9-15. Books and money will be returned to students January 16-18. Hours will be posted in further adver tising. No refunds will be given after January 18. Now is the time to collect all your old books and new reading lists. Tie a string around your finger and remember not to forget the savings event of the season: the Second Hand Textbook Sale — Part II.

must be controlled by outsiders. If it’s not them it must be the Soviets. That’s what really upsets him.” Heap took External Affairs minister Joe Clark and the Tories to task for “ stooging for the U.S. in Central America.” Canada refused to send of ficial observers to the elections, saying that they were not “ real elections” , but then sent Canada’s ambassador in Costa Rica, whom Heap met in Managua, to Nicaragua, where he con demned the elections as “ improper” due to lack of opposition participation. Heap countered that those opposi tion parties who didn’t participate were convinced by American officials not to, and that their potential vote went to the opposition that did participate. Heap also denounced a Canadian decision to participate in what was bill ed as “ NATO exercise” in the Carribean with American battleships, one of which, the USS Iowa, carried cruise

missies, said Heap. “ I wasn’t aware that NATO’s mandate had been ex panded to protect France from inva sion by Nicaraguan fishermen.” The MP referred to Joe Clark’s ap parent ignorance of a Nicaraguan diplomatic in Canada, in an embar rassing tape leaked last week. Referr ing to that imbroglio, Heap, calmly munching on a McGill muffin, said, “ I’m going on the theory that there is only one Joe Clark.” Heap commented that he found it odd that Clark could on one hand meet with him to discuss his observations yet, at seemingly the same time, not know whether or not Nicaragua had a representative in Canada let alone decide just what Canada’s policy on Nicaragua was exactly. “ Either the real Joe Clark ought to stand up and an nounce his policy or this government is far more schizophrenic than I thought.”

New Fragm entary Journal On Campus by Gopal Sreenivasan To the present ranks of student departmental journals at McGill — in economics, English, history and political science, to name the major ones — add yet another: a journal of philosophy. Philosophic Fragments, as the jour nal is to be called, was started by Gary Shaw , a jo in t-h o n o u rs philosophy/history student, and a friend. Previously, there was no ap propriate place for the roughly 700 students taking philosophy at McGill to publish their work. Various at tempts to initiate such a project in the past had proved unsuccessful for one reason or another. The new journal will be published on an annual basis with the inaugural issue to come out in the first week of April. As with most of these student journals, it is expected that.virtually all of the submissions to Philosophic Fragments will consist of papers which were originally written as coursework. Few students have the time to write papers expressly for publication in a journal. Although it is a journal of philosophy, Shaw stressed that all

McGill undergraduates are encouraged to make submissions. The only stipula tion is that the topic be at least broadly philosophical. Political theory was cited as one example of a relevant field. It was also emphasized that submis sions may take the form of book reviews. Philosophic Fragments is being funded by the Arts and Science Undergraduate Society. Officially, it will be a publication of the Philosophy S tu d e n ts ’ A ss o c ia tio n , w hich unanimously carried the motion to publish the journal. The new journal has also received strong support from the Philosophy Department chairman, Prof. McGilvray. Students interested in contributing to the journal are asked to leave a copy of the submission (not the original), along with their phone number, in the P.S.A. mailbox in the Department of Philosophy office, 9th floor Leacock Building. Submissions should be typed, double-spaced and 10-20 pages in length. Contributions will be ac cepted in either English or French. Suggestions of conscious plagiarism from K ie rk e g a a rd have been vigourously denied.

Say No To Tuition Fee Increases

by Martine Gagnon VP External, Students’ Society First the government of Québec hit the foreign students, then it hit the out of province Canadian students and now it wants to raise tuition fees for all Canadian students. Over the past few months many rumours of tuition fee increases have been floating around. The fact of the matter is: the govern ment of Québec is very seriously con sidering a significant tuition fee in crease for next year. “ What is wrong with that?” is the question that I am frequently asked. Well, let me tell you what is wrong with that. Tuition fees in Québec are presently some of the lowest in the country. It is not because it has happened in other provinces that increasing tuition fees is ,a good measure for our government to take. The drastic tuition fee increases in British Columbia have had a radical effect on student enrollment. Upwards of 5000 fewer students enrolled this year in BC’s universities. This is an im age of what could be in store for Québec students next year. The government’s plans are unclear. The increases could appear under a variety of forms. They could be modular: that is, greater in faculties such as medicine, dentistry, engineer ing or science where the costs of educa tion per capita are higher because of the equipment used. The increases could be gradual or they could come in one big chunk. But no matter what is implemented, the days of accessibility to higher education will be a thing of

the past. Summer jobs and part-time jobs are hard to find these days. The cost of liv ing and the prices of books are going up. With a tuition fee increase, too, many students will not be able to put themselves through school. In the end it is the province which suffers when the population is less educated. There is no real benefit to a tuition fee in crease. Education must remain accessi ble to all. The concept that students will get a better education if tuition fees go up is a false one. The money collected through tuition fee increases will not go directly to universities. Actually on ly a minimal amount of this money will be put back into the system. The government will be reducing its grants to the university by a proportional amount. What is happening is that the government is taking higher education off its priority list. After running on a

platform of free education for all in 1976, it is now-prepared to take a com pletely opposite position. From 1978-79 to 1984-85 the government funding per student has fallen 31 %. In 1978-79 universities represented 4.6% of the province’s budget. In 1984-85 they only represent 3.4%, a decrease of 26%. Government studies have shown also that the province’s most under funded universities are McGill, Con cordia and Bishops’. Raising tuition fees is not the solution to the problem of financing for universities. The government must put education back up on its priority list and fund its universities adequately. We are getting less for our money every year. So that’s what is wrong with a tui tion fee increase! The Students’ Society has therefore taken a firm stand against tuition fee increases. Passive opposition is not

enough. For once, students from both provincial organizations, RAEU and ANEQ, are uniting to fight a common cause. The students must act to stop the government’s intentions. McGill, Concordia, Bishops, Univerité de Montréal, UQAM and Université de Sherbrooke Students’ associations are organizing a demonstration in Mon tréal on Wednesday December 5th. Come out and say no to tuition fee in creases. The demonstration is starting at 1800hr from Parc Lafontaine. It will then go by UQAM and Concordia and will end at McGill. The McGill con tingent will be leaving from the Union Building at 1715hr. Come and participate. If you don’t act today you will pay tomorrow! For any extra information drop by the Students’ Society front desk or phone me at 392-8971.

Study All Night Long Brian T o d d Students’ Society and the A.S.U.S have resurrected that venerable in stitution, “ The All-Night Study” . From December 10 to 13 and again from December 17 to 20, the cafeteria will be open all night to provide a place for thoughtful study. The cafeteria will be open from 11 p.m. to seven in the morning with plenty of tea and coffee to provide necessary caffeine boosts. The AllNight Study offers an environment free from the annoyances of residence or an apartment such as room-mates or television or a bed. The cafeteria is also located close to the gym and the Arts Building, where exams are writ by

ten. The two weeks of study will cost the Students’ Society and the A.S.U.S. between $1500 and two thousand dollars. According to Yat K. Lo, VicePresident (Internal Affairs) of the Students’ Society, “ During the fee in crease campaign (last year), one thing students wanted back was the AllNight study.” Students’ Society tried to persuade the library to extend its hours during the exam period but were unsuccessful. “ We ar going to talk to the library again next semester to try and get them to extend their hours,” said Lo. “ The All-Night Study shouldn’t be run by Students’ Society alone,” went

on Lo. An application for funding from the Dean of Students was turn ed down earlier this year. "It is not fair for Students’ Society to cover the full bulk of this service,” concluded Lo. The costs for running the study are primarily labour costs of a guard/porter and attendants for the cafeteria.

Nominating Committee applications are now being sought for the following positions: Committee on the Co-ordination of Student Services 1) C om m ittee on th e A ccum ulated Reserve Fund M embership — 4 students, at least one of whom is a graduate student. 2) C om m ittee on th e A thletic Conference M embership — 2 students at least one of whom is from the Athletic Board.

Beacon O n The Hill by Ravi Durvasula The hoilday season is just around the corner; there are only a handful of shopping days left until Christmas. This message has been flashed at us for the past five mon ths. Those who panicked when informed that there were a paltry one hundred days left to fill their Christmas orders must now be in hysterics. Like headless chickens, they will run around in all directions purchasing anything in sight, unmindful of the fact that very few of their labours will be truly appreciated. That this is a consumer orinted season is common knowledge. It is pointless to decry this irremediable aspect of Christmas. What can be denounced, however, are the consumer trends which arise at this time of year. Think back, if you will, to Christmas two years ago. Our society was saturated with E.T. paraphernalia. The Extra Terrestrial was ubiquitous. On television, in store windows, in magazines — everywhere you looked, you were confronted with two bulging eyeballs, the bulbous head, and the spindly neck. And why were we sub jected to this plague? Because people thought E.T. was cute. That monstrosity whose face looked like it had been run over by a truck was perceived by the public as cute and adorable. A friend of mine who was attending a reputable college in the East revealed the fact that she had been given a beautiful E.T. doll for Christmas. I couldn’t believe that she, who was studying at a good school to enlighten her mind, would say something so absurd. “ You,” I told her, “ are enrolled at the wrong type of institution.” She hasn’t spoken to me since. A few years before the E.T. fad, we were gripped by Star Wars mania, and Christmas shoppers purchased millions upon millions of R2-D2 replicas. This chirp ing robot, which was, in essence, nothing more than a glorified dishwasher, was regarded as cute. I was puzzled by this sentiment: very few people, I thought, would go to. their kitchen and embrace their dishwasher whille calling it adorable. Yet this was the sort of public response to the Star War hero. This trend in public thinking is exemplified this year by the Gremlins phenom enon. These g h a stly cre a tu re s w ith fangs and d isto rted body stru ctu re a re , in e v e ry sen se of the w ord, hideou s. Y e t th e y a re the Christm as shopper's d e lig h t. O n e can purchase G rem lin dolls. G rem lin books, p osters, lunchpails — I'm su re so m ew here in th is w orld th e re e x ists a G rem lin s K it w hich w ill e n a b le a child to sh av e his head and tatto o G rem lin s a ll o ver his scalp. And, of course. G rem lin s a re 'cute' and 'cuddly'; hence, th e ir am azing p o p u la rity . If I w e re given one of th e se b easts for Christm as, I w ould call the cops. And so w e se e th a t th e com m ercial n a tu re of th e H oliday Season brings out our so ciety's obsession w ith the gross and a b e rra n t. If, in a few yea rs' tim e, Steven S p ielb erg w e re to produce the re m a k e of The Hunchback o f

Notre Dame, Quasimodo would be the public idol and what was once regarded as the dark element of man would be exalted by the mass of Christmas shoppers as be ing ‘cute’.

Dear Editor, My name is Michael. I am writing you in the hopes of including my name in the personal part of the newspaper. A good friend of mine who lives up in thé Montreal area explained to me that this may be my best way of obtain ing correspondence, which I am seek ing. An ad was placed in some Canadian paper in your province, but I only received one response and although one is okay, I really would like more people to write to me. Maybe by my writing you, something can come out of this. I am 24 years old, black in race, 5’9” in height and 151 pounds. My likes are reading, rapping, writing and playing music; besides nature walks, some partying and some solitiude. My dislikes are only people who give up on themselves and people who put down other people to exalt in their own fake story. I don’t dislike people, I dislike the actions of negative ways and knowing my own and seeking to deal with them

I can speak on it. I seek positive peo ple, people who believe in themselves who can help me by strengthening me through friendship. Before I realized I was a winner, I believed myself a loser and although only 24 I’ve spent close to 9 years in foster homes, jails, and prison. Being cut off from mainstream society, I have suffered. Although good has come out of me developing through music, simple communicating is a problem, so I seek people to write so that these years of pent-up rap-o-logies (talk) can come out. I know some people don’t look on the prisoner as a person, some think us diseased people, but it’s only through ignorance, innocently or not, that peo ple become limited in understanding. By writing me I will prove them wrong, not to glory in that for points, but out of patient understanding. Takecare Micheal Brigham 10 Delaware Avenue Buffalo N.Y. 14202 P.S.

The Beat Goes Public

by Melanie Clulow GENERAL PUBLIC played to a capacity crowd las Sunday night at The Spectrum and showed that The English Beat isn’t really dead, it just got better! The evening began w ith JOLLYPETER, a new band from California whom we were quite prepared to dislike but who proved to be very talented. Although the sole lead singer was often not powerful enought to be heard over the rest of the band, the drummer was excellent and the band showed inklings of reai innovation in such original songs as “ Lie Down In The Grass” and “ Love Doesn’t Get Better” . JOLLYPETER was certainly a good choice for GENERAL PUBLIC’S opening act and really warmed up the crowd for the excellent concert that followed. When Dave Wakeling and Rankin

Roger appeared on the stage the crowd went wild. The band started with an exuberant rendition of “ General Public” which had the audience dancing frenziedly to the beat. Although Rogers and Wakeling are seasoned performers, GENERAL PUBLIC played with the energy and high-spiritedness of a new band. The performance was technically polished and refined. Everything was clean and well-rehearsed, but there was still room for Wakeling’s wry sense of humour and innuendo. The light show was effective and didn’t detract from the music itself. There was no visual hype, just good music. GENERAL PUBLIC wowed the audience with such songs as “ Tenderness” , “ Come Again” , (Said Wakeling, “ This song is about either continued on page 11

Exams Pending, ♦. Hearts Pounding by Stuart Aker Christmas is but a few weeks away. But along with the happy dreams of Florida and 90-proof egg-nog, there is the dark and ominous promise of the Christmas exam period. Yes, those exams which were “ mon ths away” , those exams which you could worry about later are nearly on us. Christmas exams separate the men from the mice, the boys from the girls, and the beer from the hands. They are, as Garry Trudeau’s Zonker put it, “ a bummer” . Who can add to such elo quence? How does one cope with such an event? How does one survive? For starters, listen to “ F ran k ie” : “ Relax...” Getting uptight and overly anxious about exams is dangerous. It can cost you sleep, health, peace of mind, you social life and, ironically, marks. If you drink too much you get sick; if you study too much your brain gets sick. Too much of a good thing, you understand. This is known as “ academic boomerang effect.” Sick brains are not ideal for exams, unless, of course, you have sick teachers. “ Too much” is, of course, a relative term. If you forget to eat supper for four days, if you suddenly realize it’s

Tuesday and you’ve missed the weekend, if you begin to receive per sonal phone calls in the library ... it’s Too Much. You get the picture. If you stay up every night to study you’re likely to fall asleep during your exam. This is not advisable. Some students write better in their sleep than when they’re awake, but they are a small minority. About one in twenty Arts students. They simply plug in their “ bull machine” and it spews out such words as “ paradigmatic, Eisensteinian” and “ epistemological” . The teachers don’t understand them either, so instead of appearing stupid they give them an “ A” . Falling asleep with your head in a book won’t help your grade at all. It will just leave you with a stiff neck as a handicap to your next day of study. Besides, you’ll probably end up with “ Page 147” and a physics example printed backwards on your cheek. Now you know why guys with greasy brushcuts, coke-bottle glasses, and a row of pencils in their shirt pocket always have ink smudges on their faces! If “ Mickey” didn’t design your courses and you are forced to sleep very little, you’re likely to catch a cold. If you go to an exam with a cough you’re liable to get nabbed for Cough

Code Cheating by one of the Extremely Efficient Envigilators. This is known as an E.E.E. catching a C.C.C. and they get a free year of Graduate Study for every case they report. It’s quite common. I’m still trying to figure out how C.C.C can be used for an essay ex am, but that’s a technicality. Just think, an “ F” : the perfect gift for Mom. Studying twenty hours per day only leaves you three (after sleep) for your social life. We have to, after all, get our priorities straight. Drinking comes before sleep which comes before breathing. Having this little time for socializing ruins what was previously a free-wheeling social life. Everyone else has, after all, finished all of their ex ams before you even start yours. They’re having a great time; you’re be ing a “ drag” . You’ll likely find your girlfriend, plastered, sitting on some ugly guy’s lap, singing off-key Christmas carols, trying to remember your name. This is definitely not desirable. In short, too much studying is not the answer, (if you can’t remember the question all the studying in the world won’t help you). Remember, if you start studying too soon, you’re liable to

forget it all by exam time. What is the answer? How does one cope with exams? Use good judge ment. Carefully balance your studying with your other important activities. All work and no play not only makes you dull, it makes you cross-eyed and unable to focus on your exam ques tions. Weigh your choices: a six-pack will out-weigh the average pencil, eyeglasses, and $80 textbook put together. Of course, the text only has twelve pages, of which you used five. Study, study hard, but live too. Peo ple who take life (and school) too seriously are boring, they sweat too much and they’re usually named Melvin. Remember, failing a course is not the end of the world, failing to have fun while failing a course makes it seem like it is. If you’re prepared for your exams and are in a good mood, you’ll do much better than if you’re sick, tired, depressed, anxious and lonely. These people may as well get in line for sum mer courses now. Why should you trust me?. Why take my advice? Because its logical, it’s plain old common sense. Besides, it’s your turn to buy the round at Gert’s.

U n d e r T h e N e e d le by Paul Shenher Cowpunk? Just when you thought that you had heard it all, right? Cowpunk, a sound that might be best described as a mixture of the Ramones and Johnny Cash, is one of freshest trends in pop music today. It manages to combine the melodies and har monies of country music with punk’s emphasis on the sound of the guitar. Like the cavalier coming to the rescue, cowpunk has arrived just in time to save us from mindless techno-poppers and manic-depressive English musicians. Here is a short over view of some recently released cowpunk albums. Rank and File has to be considered one of the foremost cowpunk bands. Rank and File was formed in 1981 by two brothers: Chip and Slim Kinnman. Chip and Slim had been playing in various punk bands in the San Francisco

cisco area when they grew tired of the punk scene and decided to play country music. Thye moved to Austin, Texas and released their debut album, “ Sun down” , in the spring of 1983. Rank and File’s latest album, “ Long Gone Dead” is currently well placed in the Radio McGill Top Twenty. It con tains the same brand of energetic coun try music that characterized their debut album. The title track is perhaps the best on the album. It contains great two part harmonies and a strong melody. Lyrically, the song reminds us to get out and have a good time before we are all “ long gone dead” . Also good are “ Hot Wind” and “ Tell Her I Love Her” . Other cuts, such as “ John Brown” see the band expanding its instrumen tation to include traditional country in struments like the fiddle and the steel guitar. If there is a weakness to the album it lies in the production. At times “ Long Gone Dead” seems to lack the energy that was present on the first album. However, when Rank and File per forms this material live, it easily stands with the best of the first album. Another band that has recently received a good deal of airplay is Rub ber Rodeo. This is due to the strength of a few songs on their debut album en titled “ Scenic Views” . In particular, “ The Hardest Thing” is a superb ex ample of the combination of new music sensibilities and traditional country themes that defines cowpunk. The combination of guitar with syn thesizer creates a sound that is intox icating.

Unfortunately, the rest of the album fails to live up to the standard set by this song. “ City of God” , for example, doesn’t work because the attempt to create a country feeling ends up soun ding affected and condescending.. Rubber Rodeo has difficulty at times sounding authentic. Jason and the Scorchers, a band whose drummer used to be an Illinois pig farmer, don’t have to worry about sounding authentic. Their debut album, called “ Fervor” is packed with a punk-type energy. The album is vir tually a three chord manifesto. Stand out cuts include an amazing cover of an old Bob Dylan song called “ Ab solutely Sweet Marie” and “ Both Sides of the Line” . The only real drawback to the album are the lyrics. At times, Jason and the Scorchers attempt to give lessons on morality. On the other hand, “ I’m a Gypsy Now” , a song about a guy who shot his girlfriend, is a heartbreaker in the great country tradi tion. The album may also hold some interest for big R.E.M. fans as some of the members provide backup vocals on a few tracks. Any one of these albums is a good example of cowpunk music. It is likely that in the near future we will see a lot more of this type of music being releas ed. There are also local cowpunk bands playing in Montréal clubs. Three O’Clock Train and The Darned both have club dates that are well advertis ed. What all of these bands are trying to do is perhaps best summed up by Chip Kinnman of Rank and File: “ We are trying to create a sound that owes as much to Roy Acuff as to Billy Idol.”

Irish Playboy Succeeds by Mario Ëmond Last week Tuesday Night Café put on an excellent opening-night perfor mance of The Playboy o f the Western World. John Synge’s tragic-comic play was performed and enjoyed as promis ed: in an atmosphere of poetry and magic. Fortunately, the audience last Tues day did not riot in the streets as it did the night of the original performance in 1907. The play infuriated the Irish people because it impertinently por trayed them as unloving and unciviliz ed. Ironically, the anger provoked by these darker truths is a dominant theme in the play. The story revolves around a poor lonesome man, Christy Mahon (Paul Haddad), who drifts wearily into a local pub. As he hesitantly tells the story of how he murdered his father to the red-nosed innkeeper (Robert Betanzos), and his future but mousy son-in-law (Paul John) and to a pack of rowdy farmers (Bruce Fox and Dwayne Williams) he, in their eyes, becomes a hero and they promise to shelter him from the law. Soon everyone comes to admire the courageous stranger from the proud Pegeen Mike (Myrna Selkirk) to the giggling village girls ( Yvette Lang, Sue Smnith and Louise Baterman) to the

manipulative Widow Quin (Deborah Kornachuk). He becomes the wonder of the western world. In truth, Christy does not seduce these forlorn people, he is unwittingly dragged in as their savior, a somewhat Christ-like figure. And so the lonesome man comes to believe in these fantasies too; he changes his clothes and his behavior to suit his new mythical per sonality. But soon reality breaks down the myth and mirth of this illusion. Chris ty’s father (Alan Mozes), with bandag ed head, comes knocking at the inn. He breaks in upon the revelry of the in ebriated patrons; their imagined world quickly crumbles. Christy in despair tries to kill his father “ a second time” to win back the favor of Pegeen and the villagers: to bring back the myth which brought love and meaning to his otherwise lonely existence. Reality, however, becomes in escapable: everyone turns on him viciously. They insult him, push him and even scorch his leg. The hatred they show is an expression of their own painful disillusionm ent: Christ(y) becomes the scapegoat. In the play this disillusionment works on many levels. In relationships it is the failure of one, a son or a lover, to live up to the expectations of the

other. In a culture it is the fall of the higher values, of the disintegration of myths and heroes, which gave meaning to people’s lives. In either case broken illusions are seen as betrayals. These betrayals are strongly express ed in the rich dialectic speech and energetic acting o f the players. Everyone managed to connect words with feelings; their masks appeared more human than plastic. And their timing affected well the spontaneity necessary for their impulsive acts, especially during the brawling scenes. If at times the Irish accent, well spoken by all, was a bit thick and the local expressions a bit too local the ear quickly adjusted itself and soon en joyed the flavor they gave to language. All the backstage people are also to be given special praise for the success of this play. The wall of the inn by which the audience and the players entered was brilliantly imagined and construced. The costumes were as rag ged and dirty and colourful as one would ever expect. The lighting was also effective in creating the ap propriate moods of the various scenes. If so much praise is to be given to The Playboy o f the Western Word and its performance it is because they suc ceeded in depicting sympathetically a people and their times so far removed from our own. It is to be hoped that more productions of this caliber and plays of this nature will come to life here at McGill.

On The Prowl by Leif Montin An X-rated season Too busy thinking about Xams to think about Xmas? Not if you’re dysleXic you’re not, because you’ve noticed that Xams have a lot more in common than it looks. While Xams test your ability to survive a semester at school, Xmas tests your ability to sur vive a week at home. (We all have our X ’s to bear.) Granted, there is a lot to look for ward to: line-ups at the bathroom, checking out what your weirdo brother has done to his hair, and trying to remember whether the tinsel goes on the tree before or after the lights. But pay heed to the bizarre undercurrents. For instance, the annual special in which Herr Burgermeister Meisterburger tries to steal Santa Claus. Two World Wars weren’t enough, they even want to start something at Christmas. The real question is, what do you get your parents? Every year they merrily chirp, “ The best gift we can think of is to have you with us for the holidays.” Needless to say they are lying. They would much prefer that you support yourself through school and pay off the mortgage on their house — not im possible, but robbing banks is not in keeping with the spirit of the season, And Inn Keeping is. “ Iss the lease you coulda’ done,” your drunken father will say at a holi day party. “ Twenty years slaving to pay your bills for what? Comes home from McGill an empty-handed Com mie w ith sn arl b a z z le ra f blur pass-out.” You may feel embarassed at this point. Certainly as you refrain from drinking in order to appear older than you really are by spouting the nonsense you’ve learned this year — although

failed to cough up in the gymnasium — you will not fit in with the adults around you who are drinking like mad to appear younger than they really are. You will relate to them only when they pass thirty-five on the way down and you pass it on the way up — but soon they will be ‘gaa-gaa-gooing’ and you will be an old hag in a black shawl tell ing them to go easy on the egg-nog. Besides, you’re worried that Mum may not like the engraved spatula that you got her, and doesn’t Dad already have a car flashlight with a thirty foot extension cord...? This year get them what they want. Nothing will please them more than to see the results of a studious hard-working son or daughter of theirs. Hence this year’s favourite: The fake report card. With a GPA of 3.8, your family will be thrilled to pieces — and they didn’t even know you were in pre-med. For someone you don’t like, a nice gift is a poinsetta or a big bunch of mistletoe. Because these plants are poisonous. If as with some people, Christmas gets you down, a little holiday may be in order. Hull is usually pretty boring this time of year, but a suitable replace ment may be Club Herpes at their best location, Yuckapulco. But Christmas doesn’t get you down, because it’s the time of year to be reunited — briefly, thank youknow-who — with your friends and family. And free food and booze. But most of all, it’s an opportunity to get away from the annoying people you’ve spent three months with, and go tell your REAL boyfriend or girlfriend how much you’ve missed them. Good luck with your X’s! Next month: Cure for a hangover.

by Brian Todd In a daring es capade in late November, a group of five young “ caperists” who style themselves “ The Artsie Dodgers” stole the flag from high atop the Arts Building in broad daylight. The five (two men and three women) had ca refully scouted the area on prior evenings mindful of a foiled Enginee ring flag-grab several years earlier. Having ren ted a 60-foot ladder and hid den it the night before, the three “ roofmen” boldly struck out at noon and made their getaway with the flag in barely 15 minutes.

by Simma Levine Yes, Radio McGill does believe in Santa Claus. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our new Pro duction Board. The jubilant parents, Radio McGill and Students’ Society, have been dreaming of this day for a long time. As with all births, there were problems with conception, but after much trying we were welcomed with the news of a new arrival. So what does this production board have to do with you and me, the average McGill students? Well, the quality of the pro ductions coming from the control room of Radio McGill will be of in finitely superior quality. With this new equipment, I have been informed that productions will take on a professional quality. A word of praise should nonetheless, go out to the production staff of the station as the the produc tions have been done on the air this year. I raise my glass of egg nog to all of you. This roving reporter has also been informed that while you study ever so diligently for your exams, Radio McGill will continue to broadcast until the end of exams, the committment of Radio McGill deserves another toast with my egg nog...This stuff is starting to taste good. Starting this week as well, members of Radio McGill will by asking YOU

your thoughts, opinions, tastes, etc. about Radio McGill. We want to know what you would like to hear, what the population of McGill wants from their campus radio station. So, if you see any of us, be nice, smile, and we pro mise that we won’t bite... On behalf of Radio McGill, I would like to wish all of you a very happy holiday season....and a final toast of my egg nog.

by Frank Young Holiday season is just around the corner, and this is the time of year for reflection upon the events of 1984. If I may, I’d like to share what for me was the most important occurence this year. A lthough this colum n always focuses on the world of competitive sports, the following story deals with the human side of non-competitive sports. On September 17th I received a letter from a young reader who lives in Westmount. It read: * “ Dear Mr. Young: My name is Timmy Hubbard and I am 8 years old. I read your newspaper every single week, and it is my most favourite newspaper. I always read the sports section first, because I want to grow up and play for McGill in every sport. The reason that I am writing to you is the recession. Daddy says that because of the bad economy, he can’t buy me the pair of CCM Super Tacks that I want for my birthday. My birthday is on October 19th. Mom says that Dad won’t buy the skates because he is “ a cheap dog” , but she says that all the time. I was wondering if your paper, had a charitable fund for needy kids. If you do, could you please buy me a pair of Super Tacks for my birthday? Thank You” and it was signed “ Timmy H ubbard” . Well, I’m not too macho a guy to ad mit that I cried for a long time when I read that letter. The mere thought of poor little Timmy not getting skates for his birthday was too much for me to handle. In short, I wanted to help. I went to Editor-in-Chief Brian F. Todd with the letter to ask him for ad vice on the plight of little Timmy Hub bard. Brian, or “ Mr. Todd” as we call him around here, is an editor in the classic, gruff Lou Grant style. Yet under the tough-guy exterior beats a heart of 18 karat gold. After he had read the letter, I noticed Brian brushing away a tear or two. He look ed up at me and said, “ Frank, we have to help” . I knew exactly how he felt. I walked around the spacious Tribune offices showing the letter from Timmy to all of the staffers. Assistant Editor Ravi Durvasula read the letter

and wrote out a cheque for $5. The m an’s generosity was matched by most of the other staff members here. Ad Manager Jack Berry, a man famous for his frugality, coughed up $3 for poor Timmy. Thanks Jack. Produc tion Manager Jacki Danylchuk con tributed $5 in Steinberg’s vouchers so that the Hubbards could buy a SnackN-Cake for Timmy’s birthday. Wild Man Leif Montin kicked in $2, and the enigmatic Kathy Murray gave a case of empties to the fund. Even my brother Vince got into the spirit by donating 3 hours of his alloted dark room time The grand total that the Timmy Hub bard Fund collected including the $7 that a certain Sports Editor con tributed, was $26.68. On October 18th, I set out to a spor ting goods store to buy little Timmy his pair of brand new CCM Super Tacks, sought out the salesman and asked him for a pair. When he brought them to me, I thanked him for the joy that he was helping to bring into a poor Westmount boy’s life. I walked to the cashier feeling ten feet tall. “ Cash or charge?” she asked me. “ Cash,” I said. “ OK,” she said. “ The skates are $161,57.” “ W HAT?” I yelled. She merely' pointed to the price tag on the skates. I told her that the last time I bought skates they were $20. She just shrugg ed. I left the store feeling humiliated and somehow cheated. I was on my way to another store when I ran into one of my roommates. I told him about what had happened to me, and he shook his head sadly. Then he asked me a question that changed everything. “ Frank,” he said,“ Do you have the ten bucks you owe me?” What could I do? I gave him a ten That left me with $16 to buy skates with. I was so fed up by the entire situation by this point that I bought a carton of cigarettes and went home. Sorry Timmy, I guess that your pair of skates was not meant to be. A belated Happy Birthday, though. Happy Holidays everyone.

Total Work-Out in Xmas Spirit pearance from old St. Nick himself. This is the second year that this event has been held. Last year over $600 was collected for the fund. However, this year the phys-ed department is more optimistic and expects to raise between $800 and $900 to help needy children. The instructors and the organizers en thusiastically await the day, and urge everyone, regardless of age, shape, or size to come out and participate. Although the cost of the work-out is a minimal $1.00, any other additional donations will be eagerly accepted. Come to Total Work-out on December 6th at Currie Gym. It’s easy, it’s fun, and it’s a great way to get in shape and to brighten Christmas for the less for tunate.

Stingers by Howard Lando T h e h i g h - f l y i n g f i r st pl ac e Chicoutimi Inuks came into McCon nell Winter Stadium last Saturday afternoon a n d . whalloped the McGill Redmen skaters 7-1, ending the “ Red and White” ’s eix-game winning streak. Friday McGill had kept their unbeaten QUA A start alive with a lastminute victory over the struggling Con cordia Stingers, edging their cross town rivals 3-2 before an alumni weekend crowd of nearly 1,000. “ After a tough rugged game last night (vs Concordia) we just didn’t ad just to Chicoutimi’s offensive talent,” McGill coach Ken Tyler explained, when asked how his team could look so flat the day after they grinded out their second victory in as many games over their Sherbrooke Street rivals. Serge T r e p a n i e r and Dani el Larouche led the Inuk onslaught as each player scored three goals and add ed three assists. Ex-Redmen Paul

Gagne added a power-play at 15:24 of the first-period. Rookie left-winger Da n i e l Lamirande was the hero Friday night with his second goal of the game. With just 1:52 remaining in the contest, he put the puck behind Stinger goalie Tony Guerriero after after taking a good pass from linemate Mike Bean on a 2 on 1 break. “ It was a tough game as you’d skate ten feet and get hit,” Lamirande said of Friday’s match. “ But as the game progressed my legs felt better and bet ter.” Both other Redmen goals were shor thanded efforts and came in the second period — Lamirande at 4:08 to tie the score at 1 and then Mark Reade show ing excellent speed at 5:43 with McGill two men short.

“ There’s no bad team in this league despite the fact that" there are two teams comfortably ahead,” he warned, “ And Concordia will definately be up there (near first place) by the end of the season” .

dramatics. McGill’s weekend split combined with Chicoutimi’s 6-3 victory over Concordia Sunday, left the Redment (6-1-0) trailing the first-place Inuk (8-1-2) by 6 points while holding 4 games in hand in the QUAA standings. Though the rest of the league’s teams — Trois Rivières (2-6-2), Concordia (2-7-1), and Ottawa (2-5-1) — have gotten off to horrendous starts, Redmen coach Ken Tyler remains cautious.

McGill Downhillers Ready For Coming Season by Richard A. Heft As winter finally approaches, although the snow cover is still sparse, the McGill ski team members are revel ing in the anticipation of another season. Their native element and raison d’être — snow — has been slow in coming, but their spirits are not dampened by the warmth. According to talented team captain Louis Beauchemin, “ the team is very, very keen, we’ve been training hard since September and we’re now ready for the,

upcoming season, all we need is some snow.” While the team may be ready to trip the slopes, they are far from being rank amateurs with cabin fever. Last year the formidable Red & .White placed three men and one woman in the top five spots of the QUAA. The top honours went to current team captain Louis Beauchemin who won in a dramatic finish, edging out brother Laurent who races for arch rival Concordia. Multi-talented John

Dingle finished a remarkable fourth in a season where he missed two races while away on a rugby tour in England, and fierce competitor Claude Walton placed fifth. For the women, pony tailed and effervescent Rachelle Daoust finished second overall. Incredibly, McGill, the QUAA powerhouse, will not lose any of last year’s champions and has actually ac quired two formal National team members — Yan Splawinski and Mary White — to further their dominance.

As captain Beauchemin adds, “ We want a first place team finish for McGill this year, and with the talent we’ve got, I’m sure we can.” The team’s annual ski sale has been proclaimed by all to have been ex tremely successful. (Rumours that the team K-ways will be stitched in 18k gold thread have, however, been heatedly denied.) After last year’s financial debacle, this is a great relief to all members who apparently logged thousands of manhours on the sale.

from the St. Sauveur Valley to the slopes of St. Jovite — all the best in skiing, shopping entertainment and lodging. Listen to the Laurentian Ski-ORama on McGill Radio CFRM 91.7 Cable FM for more information and news on skiing North Restaurant
