B reak-in, abd uction h it M cG ill A rch itectu re

BY SARAH JOHNSON A break-and-entry and a tres­ passing into the Macdonald Har­ rington Building shortly after the abduction of a McGill architecture professor from his downtown of­ fice last week have put into ques­ tion the safety of McGill’s archi­ tecture department.

Police have not yet found the perpetrators of a break and entry into the second year architecture studio in late September. Doors and windows were smashed and students’ Walkmans and other personal possessions were stolen.

On the night of September 30 security at the MacDonald-Harrington B uilding failed another test Faculty instructor Duncan Swain was working late when he encoun­ tered a man in building who ap­ peared to be trespassing.

“I know everyone in the school, so I knew he wasn’t a student,” Swain recalled.

“He said he was looking for a friend and he made up some name.

He was drunk, and he didn’t look

like a student because he was about thirty-five. I took him to security and found he had been let into the building without an I.D. I felt that the guard was being a little lax.”

cleaners supplement security by contacting the Physical Plant when they see suspicious strangers in the building.

Ironically, the 29 year-old archi­ tecture professor who was abducted in an unrelated incident the same weekend teaches building security at McGill.

Joseph Zorko told Montréal police last week that two men clubbed and chloroformed him in his office at the architectural firm of Desnoyers-Mercure on Sunday,

University officials will not divulge security information, but Physical Plant Director Roy Dalebozik told the T rib u n e that porters during school hours watch the McConnell Building and F.D.A. building doors into the architec­ ture and science building. At night,

SSMU GENERAL ASSEMBLY LEAVES FATE OF TUITION MARCH TO STUDENTS The McGill Students’ Society (SSMU) is holding a General As­ sembly today to decide whether or not McGill will take part in a tuition freeze march. Students from several Quebec universities will be marching on October 18 to demand that the provincial government maintain a freeze on tuition fee increases. SSMU President Santo Manna and Vice-President (External Affairs) John Fox will speak in favour of taking part in the demonstration. Guest student speakers from the University of Toronto and the Université de Montréal will also take part in the discussion. All McGill students are invited to attend the Assembly in the Union Ballroom from noon to 1:00 pm.

Fox said he expected at least 300 students would attend. “It’s our education, and we have to decide what to do about it,” said Fox.

head calls for higher salaries

PRESIDENTS’ COUNCIL SETS TERM S OF REFERENCE At a meeting of the newly reformed Presidents ’ Council last Thurs­ day, the Council discussed anddefined its terms of reference. McGill’s newest student political group is made up of the presidents of 14 faculty and student groups, including the IRC and Inter-Fraternity Council. The Presidents’ Council has no vote on SSMU, but it has decided to issue public statements on student issues. It was deter­ mined that resolutions of Council will require a 2/3 majority, and the Council also decided that its proceedings would be bilingual. Stu­ dents’ Society President Santo Manna said the Council’s purpose is to “facilitate the fullest means of communication on student issues at McGill”.

BY BEN ROVET The former Co-ordinating Edi­ tor of the McGill D a ily has called on McGill to pay its student news­ paper editors.

Jeanne Iribame headed the col­ lectively-run newspaper before resigning two weeks ago due to a combination of financial and aca­ demic pressure.

“The campus paper editors at most universities are being paid full time wages,” she said last week.

“We’re given only a $900 hono­ rarium.”

STUDENT GROUPS COORDINATE QUEEN’S ROAD TRIP A variety of student organizations are cooperating in order to sell tickets and transportation to the October 21 McGill football game at Queen’s University. Students can buy the combined bus/game roundtrip tickets for $20 each from Students’ Society, the ASUS, EUS, MUS, and the IRC. The buses will leave McGill at 8:00 am, and leave Kingston at midnight. Game tickets are not being sold separately.

Students’ Society President Santo Manna said he expects 300 to 400 ^students will take part in the road trip.

building limited access to the area to only two doors.

“By having the Adams bridge out of service, we’re actually im­ proving security,” he said. “Now, students have to enter by McCon­ nell or off of University.”

Dalebozik’s office has recently placed tags on telephones in uni­ versity buildings bearing the Physi­ cal Plant’s emergency number, 3000. The stickers enable students to act quickly and safely in an emergency, he said.

“Every student should be look­ ing out. If you see something out of kilter, use the phone. Don’t put yourself on the front lines - that’s what Physical Plant is for.”

October 1. Zorko said the men then tied him to a bed in an unknown location for two days during which he was sexually assaulted by other men.

He resurfaced two days later at the Lantern Baron McGill College St. in a state of shock.

Architecture School Director Professor Bruce Anderson said Zorko is an exemplary and ex­ tremely well-liked instructor, add­ ing that he believed the incident to be completely unrelated to McGill.

In fact, Dalebozik explains, security in the engineering and architecture buildings has been improved since the temporary clos­ ing of the footbridge to the F.D.A.

Th e M cG ill T rib u n e, O ctober 11-17, 1989

Do th e rig h t thing, p lease Last week the T rib u n e ran a story describing how engineering and computer science students are being forced to wait in line in order to use a computer terminal. At last count, there were still a thousand undergrads with forty eight terminals, and line-ups four or five deep.

Granted, we shouldn’texpect the Earth to move in just one week,especially when McGill’sbureaucracy is involved, but what have we seen? We have seat some politics, some manoeuvring, and some attempts at some short term solutions.

One of the temporary solutions offered so far, is to reopen one of the old terminal rooms in Burnside Hall (BH 112) which had been taken over by the Computer Centre to be converted into offices. BH 112 was reopened as a terminal room last week With eight terminals. Great Eight terminals change the student to terminal ratio from about twenty-to-one to eighteen-to-one.

Another solution that tes been thrown around is a new engineering terminal room. Now imagine that a terminal room for everyone in the Faculty of Engineering and whoever else feels like taking a computer course. What a brilliant ideal Why is the idea only being tossed about? Actually, in all fairness it has more than just talked about such a room was supposed to open today. But as of last week, there was no furniture in the room, no terminals had been ordered, and no one was really quite sure just how they would hook up the new terminals anyway.

Dave Dedic, the person in charge of the room, will tell you that despite the problems, the room “should open in a few weeks.” Now, I know Dave has taken a couple of years off school, and it is possible that his definition of a few has changed to ten or eleven, rather than two or three. I say this because, if you believe that those rooms will be open and fully operational in two or three weeks, then Jacques Parizeau has new unilingual engiish signs for his office.

What can we do to improve this situation? Well, aside from praying to God (or some other religious icon) we can bring our sleeping bags so that at least we will be comfortable.

Ms. Friedlander ’s article entitled “Teaching shortage hits philoso­ phy department” [Oct 3-10] sug­ gests that the severe teaching short­ age is due to a lack of proper fund­ ing and the “suddeb departure” of a single professor. Although, “McGill’s chronic under-funding problem” has no doubt played a small part in contributing to the dismal conditions of the philoso­ phy department, the reason for the student teaching shortage is a re­ sult of the chronic mismanagement problem within the philosophy department itself. The departure of Professor Hankinson also has very little to do with the teaching short­ age: he has been replaced by an­ other teacher of classical philoso­ phy. Moreover, the 200 and 300 level courses which are now being taught by post-graduate students are not courses which were taught

by Professor Hankinson.

The McGill Philosophy depart­ ment is responsible for this year’s teaching crisis, and this shortage didn’t just “hit” the philosophy department Last year a graduate student was also teaching a 200 level course. Surely, any properly page 4

No, wait there is a way out! Unfortunately, it isn’t cheap. According to the Dean of Engineering, Pierre Belanger, there will soon be forty six new modems to allow people to use their computers from home. He explained that, “as a lot of students now have their own computers,” this should case the problem when the modems are operational sometime in the next couple of weeks.

It will improve the Current overcrowding, but the onus is being placed on the students. Personal computers are not cheap. It is unreasonable to expect someone who needs to use the computer systems at McGill to buy a personal computer, and a modem.

What the Faculty of Engineering, which includes the School of Computer Science (SOCS), should be doing is filling the room in Burnside Hall with as many terminals as it can. If this means going out and buying more terminals, and having to rewire the room, then do it. If it means forcing the Computer Centre to look elsewhere for offices, then so be it.

We arc, after all, a university. And the last time I checked, a university was supposed to help educate students, not hinder them.

One other possibility is to redesign the new engineering terminal rooms. As it stands, When they do eventually open there will be around 32 MUSIC/ UNIX terminals (ic. terminals that can connect to either system), and 24 PS/2s (personal computers).

However, according to SOCS systems manager Peter Deutsch, “there is room for two to three times as many."

There you have it The solutions are there, yet amidst all of this confusion we have more and more students standing in line waiting to get onto very few machines. The situation is going to get worse before it gets better, especially as the real work starts to be assigned in engineering and in computer science and the assignments begin to pile up.

Thus, this is an appeal directly to you, Dean Belanger, as you are the person who has the power to do something, and is ultimately responsible for the problem. Please do something, do it soon, and make sure it is the right thing.

run department that an adequate number of professors would be available for the academic year.

However, it appears that the McGill Philosophy department has not been able to do so. This year Prof.

Norton, Prof. Illingworth, Prof.

Walker are not teaching during this 89-90 academic year. Prof. Davies and Prof. Fisher are only teaching in the winter term andProf. Bracken is only teaching part-time. To be fair, some professors have been hired to make up for this shortage, but apparently the department was not able to hire enough. Why? Could it be that philosophers do

not want to join our faculty? From what an Ontario professor has re­ marked regarding of McGill Phi­ losophy, it would seem that not even enticement of a good salary would draw philosophers to the McG ill philosophy department As this professor stated “with regards to McGill philosophy department the word is out.” Thus, as this remark suggests, students in the philosophy department may need to be concerned with more than just a teaching shortage.

The God of Irony must have had a field day, scheduling Thanksgiving and Yom Kippur (a Jewish holiday, kind of an institu­ tionalization of guilt and fast­ ing) on the sa m e day this year. Person­ ally, I found the scene at home a little strange; my whole fam­ ily sat around a table heaped with food, in­ cluding abeautiful turkey, not touching a thing.

But that’s over now, and McGill students can return to what they were doing before the weekend: fighting the weather, and contract­ ing colds and flus. At any given moment at McGill after Septem­ ber, it seems like half the student population have runny noses and sore throats. Now, misery is not funny, but the sheer volume of cold-weather victims does lead to some odd mass behaviour. In large classes, the professor is quickly drowned out by a collective on­ slaught of the sniffles, and the sickly-sweet smell of Vick’s and Hall’s lozenges can cause a sec­ ond-hand light-headedness, until the whole campus is like some­ thing out of Dali. The predominant accent for McGill students be­ comes neither English nor French, but Virus - a strange tongue, with blocked nasal passages and a lot of heavy b’s and d’s: “I’b got ad essay to had id od Websday,” and so on.

I have to agree with Laurie Wesley thatPaul Horwitz has much too much freedom to vent his play­ ful but immature and undisiplined imagination. It’s too easy to throw out “puerile, jeuvenille, snotty” one-liners attacking in all direc­ tions at once. What dues has Hor­ witz paid to be given to be given carte blanche to roam the universe

shorts only days ago suddenly drown themselves under a moun­ tain of scarves and sweaters. Surely this is God’s punishment for dar­ ing to live anywhere north of the Bahamas.

Of course, when the going gets rough, the rough hike up to Health Serv­ ices. This is perhaps the most entertain­ ing place on M cGill; and what’s more, most of the fun is completely free. As stu­ dents wade through the miles of bad syntax and in­ trusive personal questions that constitute most provincial or pri­ vate medical insurance forms, they take some time out to stuff as many free drug samples as possible into their bags. Grab enough cough syrup with codeine here, and you and your friends can spend days at a time getting dizzy, gratis. After all,you pay for student services, so why not take back your investment by getting twisted on codeine? Fi­ nally, after sitting in the hall for an age or two, you can go see one of the very professional nurses or doctors. Always ready to deal with serious problems, our health-care friends must often settle instead for more cold victims. What can you do but tell them to go steal more samples? The cold will last 7 to 10 days, but at least this way you’ll be out of your head for most of it.

cutting up everything in sight?

There’s a certain amount of truth in the old adage that a writer has to suffer. The best sense of humour develops from great suffering.

Horwitz strikes me as one of those fellows who has not suffered so much as a pimple. His barbs are rooted, not in art, compassion, and the smithy of his soul, but merely shot from a sharp aggressive mind running hog wild.

Let’s give more space to tal­ ented satirists who have worked long and hard to cultivate their craft and display in their humour writing not merely a poison pen but culture, humanity, enlighten­ ment, and a developed talent.

McLennan stacks may close for bar coding B Y LISA GALLOW AY

Plans to bar code McLennan Library’s600,000books may close sections of McGill’s main library to students during January, Direc­ tor of Libraries Eric Ormsby said last week.

Bar coding is supposed to make McGill libraries more efficient by automating withdrawals and book searches. McGill students with home computers and modems would be able to access circulation information from home.

But students might have to be temporarily inconvenienced in order to have the codes put on the books. Ormsby’s plan would have sections of 15 rows closed for no more than two days at a time dur­ ing times when the libraries are

least used. As was the case in the past, runners would be assigned to get books from stacks for students.

A study of McLennan Library has revealed two such low-usage periods: between the end of Christ­ mas exams and mid-January and from May to June.

Ormsby suggested that bar cod­ ing during a short period of time between December and January would be relatively undisruptive to McGill students and fair to both summer students and University professors.

“Only browsing will be limited” Ormsby explained, adding that the entire Physical Science library was closed for a week during the sum­ mer without much fuss.

The more detailed and lengthy coding needed for materials such

as journals would probably begin in May. Redpath reserves, Management and Medical Libraries were also bar coded during the summer.

Unlike those libraries, however, McLennan’s size and variety of material might require time both during and after the second semes­ ter for bar coding.

Nonetheless, SSMU Vice-Presi­ dent (University Affairs) Kate Morisset said she would prefer to see books bar coded during sum­ mer holidays.

“Any limited access will be a problem,” she explained, adding that she is concerned about the cost of runners.

CONTINUED FRO M PAGE 3 The Daily's coordinating editor, coordinating news editor and co-ordi­ nating layout and design editors each receive a $900 honorarium. Its other five sections receive $800 each to be divided among their editors.

The Tribune's section editors are unpaid, and its Editor-in-Chiefis given a $1000 honorarium. Unlike the Stu­ dent Society-funded Tribune, the Daily is funded by a $5.70 fee from each student and would probably have to ask students directly for a fee increase in order to give salaries to editors.

Daily editors say their newspaper has not been affected by the resignations of its Co-ordinating Editor and News Editor on September 25.

“Resignations happen every year and someone is always keen to fill in,” Co-ordinating News Editor Karen Valihrora said last week.

“The loss of one or two editors is no problem as there are five or six people who work collectively andwork hard.”

Iribame’s duties, which include

setting the newspaper’s financial agenda and representing staff opinion on its board of governors, have been split between Valihora and News Edi­ tor SusanaBejar. Anew Co-ordinating Editor was to be elected late yesterday.

News Editor Mitu Sengupta also resigned for academic reasons.

Both resignations followed arash of vacancies on theDaily’s editorial board last month. Since then all sections except for science have found editors.

Valihora suggested that the Daily's Science Edition mightnot be produced this year. Instead, she said, Science would become a regular feature in the paper’s news section.

Business Manager Brigitte Elie said the resignations have also not affected the Daily’s business side.

“The resignations have not really had an effect on us...this kind of thing happens every year,” co-business manager Brigitte Elie said. She added “we’re independent enough for the situation to have no effect on us.” Elie also stated that there has been no dis­ ruption of advertising for the Daily .

H ank W illiam s The show we never expected B Y SH ER R Y ANTONISHEN To say that Centaur Theatre’s H a n k W illiam s: T h e Show H e N e v e r G ave was. an unexpected

perform ance is the understatement of the season.

The show, which features the critically acclaimed Sneezy W aters as Hank Williams, attempts the unusual in theatrical productions: it is a performance of a performance.

If you are anticipating the use of conventional dramatic means, namely a plot, you will be off down that infamous road to nowhere. The show is one extended concert performance starring Hank Williams (or the ghost thereof.) It is a foot stompin’ country and western festival filled with Williams’ greatest hits, which all good ol’ country boys and girls know are the cornerstones of today’s country music. Sneezy Waters’s performance is first rate, as are those of the entire cast. These

actors seem comfortable around the music they are performing, so there is no self consciousness in their portrayals of musicians.

Waters isn’t p la y in g Hank Williams; he is inside the skin, giving a great co n cert performance.

On the other hand, is this what we go to the theatre for? To be convinced that we are actually at a country and blues concert? The empty seats after the intermission would seem to indicate that some people prefer their music at The Forum. Too bad they left, though, because the second half maries the beginning of a narrative look at Hank Williams the man.

“I said to Hank Williams how lonely does it get? He hasn’t answered me yet, but I hear him coughing all night long, twenty floors above me in the tower of song.” The lines are from Leonard Cohen’s T ow er o f S o n g which appears in the programme for this play. An assumption could be made that the play would be an attempt to give us some

insights into W illiam s’ s mysteriously lonely and tragic life. Instead, there is only a lot more coughing. In between his songs, in his brutally-apparent drunken state, he speaks of his acute inner pain, yet the source of this pain remains a mystery.

Perhaps itstemmed from his first love, whom he tearfully reveals left him. Or perhaps - and this is more likely - we are to believe that he has “seen the light” (a number he does with his band) and therefore has a deeper understanding of the “tragedy of life”. One can only speculate.

One thing that did leave a clear and firm impression on me is the fact that Sneezy Waters is very convincing as Hank Williams.

Those in the audience that are fans of Hank Williams’ music were completely drawn into the performance. They clapped, cheered, and even shouted out a comment or two. If you are a Hank Williams fan, this is a play definitely worth seeing.

True West toes the line of tedium

BY JASON ARBUCKLE It’s always disappointing to see a dull production, but even more disappointing when it’s not really the production’s fault.

Sam Shepard’s True West , directed by Carrie Pederson, is a case in point Shepard’splays, though they may be the toast of theatre people, are rarely hits with theatre­ goers. They read well, and are spruced with intriguing insights, but so drenched in melancholy that they do not move. This translates to an unfortunate choice for the season opener of Player’s Theatre.

True West tells the story of two

brothers, a study in American contrasts. Rosy-cheeked Austin (Colin Krivy) is all apple-pie and Ivy league while Lee (Shayne Maxwell), just back from a sojourn in the desert, is an unshaven, television-stealing louse. Austin is house-sitting for their mother while he works on his script; Lee has cruised back into town and is making a general nuisance of himself.

The real nuisance begins, however, when Lee is able to woo Austin’s producer to his own idea of a true western. Austin, outraged, refuses to help with this new script.

Lee, in an aggravated condition of writer’s block, ultimately takes to

the typewriter with a golf club. And so it goes.

The typical Shepardian themes are, for the most part, present. The conflicting facets of the American dream reflect the artificial and the real. The weight of alienation and isolation are felt in the desert and the mother’s trip to a colder desert, Alaska. And fans of Shepherd will be familiar with a conclusion that twists the bizarre and the macabre.

Shayne Maxwell is able to slip into Lee’s slippery character with remarkable ease and manages a very convincing portrayal. Colin Krivy, as Austin, is less successful until, drunken, he is able to get some of the better lines. But it requires a subsantial suspension of disbelief to believe these two are brothers, much less that Monica Freedman (thirty to forty years too young) could be their mother.

The relationship between the brothers is nonetheless shaded with

An Innocent Man bites off

more than Selleck can chew B Y K IM F A R L E Y

...A

nd

S

Picture a yuppie, Alan Alda with a mustache ...in prison.

The “sensitive Eighties’ man” simply refuses to die.

Just when Alan Alda cruised blessedly to a lower film profile, up surged Tom Selleck - affable, devoted, a giver at heart. But unlike Alda, Selleck is cursed with the face o f machismo. It chases him everywhere. It has defined his film career, pushing him into roles which allow him to bulk up on sensitivity, often at the expense o f plot, character, etc.

His latest film, An Innocent M an, suffers because Selleck once again tries too hard to be too perfect.

This time he is cast as an upstanding Californian, Jimmie Rainwood, who is immersed in a Wonderful Life - great job as resident nice person at American Airlines, loving marriage, nifty beach house - who suddenly has

M usic for falling leaves

BY PAUL HORWITZ After a summer with an intolerably small amount of new music releases, the record industry has bounced back this fall with a host of new albums. If midterms have kept you away from the record stores recently, here are a few albums you may want to check out. If noneof these strike yourfancy, take heart; other artists with albums in the stores or slated for release include Neil Young, Bad Brains, Kate Bush, Camper Van Beethoven, the Sugarcubes, Public Enemy, Bob Dylan, and many others. Go wild.

Tracy Chapman Crossroads

Few sophomore ettorts have been under as much pressure as this new album. With Crossroads, Tracy Chapman manages to fulfill the promise of her debut album, though now her talent is less spectacular than consistent. This is a more pensive album, without as much kick as her first record but with much more subtlety. Still political, on songs like “Freedom Now” and “S ubcity”; but moving towards a stronger personal focus for the most part, such as on “This Time” and “Be Careful of My Heart”. Not a blockbuster, but sensitive and solid.

Chet Baker

trumpeter and singer. Baker’s style of playing is slow, soft, and ultimately seductive. From the opening bass of “Moon & Sand”, Baker sets up a perfect mood and maintains it His high, breathy voice works especially well on “Imagination”, “Zingaro”, and a cover of Elvis Costello’s “Almost Blue”. An excellent album for fledgling jazz listeners.

James McMurtry Too Long in the Wasteland

Talk about pedigree! This is the debut of the son of acclaimed novelist Larry McMurtry (“Lonesome Dove”), produced by John Cougar Mellencamp. More than just a curiosity, McMurtry’s record is a well-crafted groupofsongs that paint vivid pictures of life in the small towns that dot the American landscape. His singing voice is still too untrained, but he is a dazzling

storyteller, who never sentimentalizes or lectures. The characters in songs like ‘Terry” or “I’m Not From Here” come to life against a strong, folk-rock musical backing supplied by Mellencamp’s band. McMurtry is definitely a talent to watch.

Jane Siberry Bound by the Beauty

This is Siberry’s fifth album, and it’s about time she got the success she so richly deserves. Her songs are as quirky as ever, but they are also much more accessible. The mood is slow, but intense and joyous. The title track in particular is worth hearing: a country-influenced paean to nature, in which S iberry’s emotion is irresistible. For humour, check out “Everything Reminds Me of My Dog”. A lot of care must have gone into this album, and it shows. Plus, she’s Canadian!

his life destroyed. After he meanders inadvertantly in the way o f two corrupt policeman who have been skimming cocaine from their busts, Rainwood becomes their fall guy, and ends up in jail.

Jail is a strange place to see Tom Selleck. He doesn’t look right, although that was probably the point. After all, the film drums into us with the subtlety o f a tractor, he is an INNOCENT man. I-N-N-O-C-E-N-T. The camera enjoys zooming in on the towering Selleck in a line o f short convicts and highlighting his deep tan against his prison blues.

D irecto r P eter Y ates is determined to present only black and white contrasts in his film.

With a heavy hand, he paints Rainwood’s life outside jail as idyllic, inside as living hell.

But An Innocent Man has its moments.When it calms down and manages to escape its melodramatic soundtrack for a minute, it is a vicious comment on the demoralizing climate inside o f prisons. Once the doors are shut, it tells us, anything goes.

Rainwood learns quickly that the upstanding m orality which worked when life was easy doesn’t hold water when his enemies are threatening him with gang rape.

Screenwriter Larry Brothers spent time in prison, so his script is able to transcend Hollywood imaginings o f what prison “must be like.” Here, ja il is an ugly, racist place, and convicts have no choice but to kill or get killed.

Selleck’s character becomes as primitive as everyone else, once he has realized there is nowhere safe and moral to escape to anymore.

As in every classic morality play, there is a mentor to help Rainwood along his weary way.

Here, F. Murray Abraham fills the shoes. He does fine, but basically just reprises his role in A m a d eu s .

U nfortu nately,

Abraham’s suave, polished air tends to make him unconvincing as the type of hardened convict the prison depicted here would produce. His character is never fleshed out enough to explain why he has been able to survive the brutality with his gentility intact. As it stands, his regal presence seem s fo rced , unnatural.

Cardboard cutouts pop up all over An In n o c e n t M an .

Rainwood’s wife Kate (Laila Robins) spends most o f her screen time being meekly loyal, while the two corrupt police

Ja il is a strange place to see Tom Selleck. officers wear gold chains and keep sneaking behind doors to snort coke. The cutout list goes on, packed with characters whose personalities take about two lines to summarize.

All of them detract from what is at tim es a disturbing, powerfully immediate film.

Some o f Yates’ prison scenes contain plain and sim ple violence which is disturbing on its own, without all the melodrama. If he had restricted his focus to prison alone, Yates m ight have produced a worthwhile film. As it stands, however, An Innocent Man tries to record not just a man’s time in prison, but the rise and fall o f a his morality... far too large a bite for Selleck et al to chew.

T h is prom pted a m eeting m id -Septem ber at w hich the Party discussed ap o ssiblen am e change and other alternatives designed to in ­ crease its electab ility .

T h e S o v iet U nion has no t intervened.

Thirty-th ree years after its attem pt to establish a m ore dem ocratic system was violently crushed by the S o v iet U nion, Hungary is qu ick ly taking advantage o f G o rb ach ev ’s new p o li­ cie s to follow a path sim ilar to P o ­ lan d 's and institute p olitical and e c o ­ nom ic changes rem iniscen t o f w estern system s. “Hungary is acting as the test ca se o f lib eralism ,” claim s D r . B o ss , “how ever you d efine it.”

R ecen tly jo in ed by C zech oslo v a­ k ia, Hungary has continued to allow thousands o f E ast G erm an citizen s to em igrate through their country en route to the W est, a d ecision m ade in spite o f pleas from E a st G erm an o ffic ia ls, and one w hich in the past would have been challenged by the S o v iet U nion. B u t as one H ungarian o ffic ia l stated, “T h e B rezhnev D octrine is ov er.” Hungary has also restored diplom atic ties w ith Israel, broken in 1 9 6 7 , and is only the second W arsaw P act country to have done so. R om ania, the other, never relinquished its ties. A ccording to recen t w ire reports, recognition o f Israel, the largest U .S . fin ancial b e n e­ factor, w ill b e m atched w ith certain econom ic considerations by the U nited States.

E ast G erm any, despite being able to bo ast the highest standard o f liv in g in the Eastern B lo c , has lo st m any sk illed

workers in the recen t w ave o f em igra­ tion to the W est in past w eeks. A l„ though there have been announcements from E ast G erm an o ffic ia ls that they would not restrict em igration o f E ast G erm an citizen s to the W est, co n tra­ dicting reports from R ed C ross m em ­ bers and em igrants in flig h t have re ­ cently co m e out o f Budap est, and inter­ nal crack downs have sin ce taken place.

G orbachev stated publicly last year that the states w ithin the E astern B lo c could act on their ow n free w ill, and this is apparently the case. T h e changes

taking p la ce w ithin the E astern B lo c states today are no t elicitin g the sam e reaction in M o sco w they would o f in the past. T h e reform s, how ever, have constrained the S o v ie t U nion.

Internally, ethnic problem s w ithin the B altic States, shortages o f food and other n e cessities, the la ck o f jo b s for its people, and new p o litical oppostion have all forced G orbachev to co n ce n ­ trate his efforts m ostly within the Soviet U nion. E xtern ally , w orld op in ion would no t allow the So v iets to m o b i­ liz e w ithout serious reprisals. “W h at G orbach ev needs internationally is to b e le ft alon e.” states D r . B o ss .

Tishkov: "scientific management of society just isn't working"

BY DEIRDRE O’CONNELL Perestroika (restructuring) has opened the process of ethnic re­ vival which has been crushed in the Soviet Union since Stalin. Dr. Valerii Tishkov, Director of the Institute of Ethnography at the Academyof Sciences of theUSSR, believes that the chief danger in­ volved in democratization in that country comes from ethnic rela­ tions. It is “the only field which really can ruin the entity of the Soviet Union.”

The phenomenon of ethnic re­ vival the Soviet Union is experi­ encing in the form of national movements and ethnic conflicts is, according to Dr. Tishkov, unex­ pected. While this phenomenon is a legacy of the Stalinist period it is not solely internal but in fact,

worldwide. This revival can be viewed as a response by ethnic groups to the process of moderni­ zation and urbanization in which the “cultural specifics of different ethnic groups are disappearing.”

Dr. Tishkov interprets the return to ethnicity as a need for a “feeling of comfort, hermitage and family.”

Small social groupings give a sense of personal safety.

Traditional Marxism initially needed the idea of a national state as a first step towards building a classless society. This was the base of Leninist national policy. Ironi­ cally, a successful radical Bolshe­ vik cry was for “The rights of na­ tions to self-determination up to separation.”

Dr. Tishkov disagrees with con­ temporary Soviet opinion which favours aretum to Lenin’s policies

to solve ethnic conflicts. He argues that Stalin’s policies were akin to Lenin’s. The main difference was the implementation by harsher methods. Since it was wrong in predicting the disappearance of ethnicity in a classless society, Marxist-Leninist writings should not be the source of a solution to today’s problems. When the popu­ lar idea of revolution kept society together, those solutions might have been successful. Today in­ dustrial capitalism is strong and ethnic groups are becoming pro­ gressively more vocal.

The question of creating a “Soviet People”- a homogeneous society without conflicts - is just one of many ethnic contradictions.

Even inThe Programme o f the Communist Party there is the atti­ tude of'solving the national prob-

Martin: Canadians may ask "who speaks for us?"

BY R.D. STACEY The fat cats of politics are in town and they’re using McGill as their scratching post - or litter box, depending how you look at it.

In the past two weeks, our campus has been visited by two prominent (potential)Liberal lead­ ership candidates. Last Thursday Lloyd Axworthy gave an informal speech to a small gathering of young liberals and interested stu­ dents. Monday, Paul Martin - a major opponent to Jean Chretien, should he make a bid for the job was also at McGill.

While Mr. Axworthy was re­ laxed and casual, Mr. Martin ad­ dressed a crowded room as though he were conducting a board meet­ ing. Complete with aides-some of whom were wearing ‘Canadians For Paul Martin’ buttons (possible candidate?) - Mr. Martin presented his chimerical vision of a new Canada.

According to Mr. Martin, eco­ nomics, business, and marketing strategy are the tools with which we are expected to forge a better Canada. Mr. Martin, who acciden­ tally referred to our country as “our company” during the question period, was vehement about the need of the Canadian economy to

adopt a new personality.

Martin outlined several propos­ als to foster this metamorphosis.

He suggested that govenments should refuse to aid non-growth industries in Canada and supports a strict policy against government incentives inducing foreign com­ panies to settle here. In fact, he “wouldn’t give a cent to attract foreign investment.”, he said.

After speaking for approxi­ mately thirty minutes, Mr. Martin opened the floor to questions. It was not long before someone asked the inevitable question regarding Meech Lake and the constitution.

This question, rather fashionable in the political forum these days, got a surprising answer: “The rea­ son Canada is getting (trampled) on the world market is because (other countries) aren ’t squabbling about their constitutions,” he said.

Mr. Martin added to this statement by saying that, indeed, something had to be done - exactly what he couldn’t, or wouldn’t, say.

One student raised the topic of social reform, wondering if it ex­ isted in Mr Martin’s political for­ mula. The question provided the arena for a display of emotional grandstanding on the part of the speaker. Martin told the story of Steven Hawking, a handicapped physicist, getting positively mistyeyed as he detailed the genius’s inabilities. The purpose of this an­ ecdote was to introduce the idea that handicapped people can, with proper technology, work for a liv­ ing... thus reducing the deficit.

Mr. Martin’s arguments were convincing and well structured. He does, however, speak from a busi­ ness perspective, a fact that may isolate manyLiberals. Party mem­ bers and Canadians in general will now be hearing from party hope­ fuls with increasing frequency. If Mr. Martin represents the type of leader to come out of the leader­ ship campaign one of the ques­ tions Canadians will be asking themselves is “who speaks for us?”

Jo h n Henry Cardinal Newman Annual Lecture

‘N a t u r a l a n d R e v e a l e d C o m m u n i t i e s ” A lecture by

lem; Dr. Tishkov stressed the naïveté of believing in an ideal formula for today when he said, “the scientific management of society simply isn’t working.”

Dr. Tishkov outlined two new trends emerging in the soviet demographic sphere. The Repub­ lics have lost the homogeneity of their respective populations. Sixty million Soviet citizens currently live outside their own ethnic terri­ tory. For example, 75% of Tartars live outside the Tartar Republic, are not members of the Tartar na­ tion but are interested in the situ­ ation and want their own schools, newspapers, clubs and associations irrespective of where they live.

It is now virtually impossible to setbordersaccording toethnic lines because of intermixing. Yet the divisions were made on the basis of nation statehood. Originally fifty-three ethnic/national divisions were created on the principle of a hierarchy of ethnic states. Dr. Tishkov maintains that this hierar­ chy is no longer “accepted by the people.” His advice to Gorbachev would be to give more rights to re­

T h e to

gions, districts and local commu­ nities rather than to the ethnic states directly. While this plan may be difficult to achieve, Dr. Tishkov sees it as a, “truly democratic way of improving the situation.”

Unequal growth of different ethnic groups in the Soviet Union is the second major emerging trend.

In terms of proportional political representation, the Russians and Ukrainians are losing out while the other thirteen republics are gain­ ing power. Meanwhile large eth­ nic groups such as the Soviet Ger­ mans are without republics and have little political representation.

Now that perestroika has reo­ pened the process of ethnic re­ vival, a major historical question is raised: should the Soviet Union develop along the East European lineand form nation states or should it look toward more global hori­ zons? After posing this question, Dr. Tishkov concluded that the latter is, “historical destiny; bring people to a more peaceful and global community. That is the historical challenge.”

Iannone :

Goals for a new season

BY IAN SIROTA Fresh off an exciting and suc­ cessful season last year, the McGill Redmen hockey team is getting ready to embark on what many feel will be another winning season.

Central to any Redmen success on the ice is the play of veteran centreman Tim Iannone. Iannone, a fourth-year economics student from Regina, has led McGill of­ fensively for the past three years, including a sensational sophomore season in which he tallied 52 goals.

Now entering his final season with the Redmen, Iannone hopes to assume a leadership role with a young but talented McGill hockey squad.

Tim’s first year at McGill was not a particularly good one for the team. The Redmen, hurt by the defection of three key players and a knee injury to Iannone, won only three games. The Tribe bounced back from this poor regular-season showing to stun QUAA secondplace finisher Ottawa, a team that had finished the year ranked sev­

enth in Canada. Though McGill then bowed in four straight games to eventual national champion UQTR, the win over Ottawa marked a turning point in the for the Iannone-led Redmen.

“We were very proud of going that far. We wanted to continue [the momentum] going into the next year,” Iannone claims.

After a slow start that following year, both Tim and the Redmen began to roll. On his way to what would be a 50 goal, 90 point sea­

son, Tim led the Tribe to a 14-win campaign, the highest total for a McGill hockey team in many years.

“We didn’t have all that much talent, but with the talent we had we did very well.” In the playoffs, McGill knocked off Concordia before once again falling to the Patriotes of UQTR in a best-ofthree divisional final, two games to one. Despite this second straight playoff loss to UQTR, Iannone classified the season as a success.

“Personally, that was my best year....It was the only year that I played near my potential. Every­ thing came together. Hopefully this year will be like that one.”

Last year was a banner year for the Tribe. Setting the pace in the OUAA both offensively and de­ fensively, McGill rolled to a 19-43 mark.

The Redmen had many easy games in the second half of the year, leading perhaps to a bit of complacency. “We started to go downhill a little bit after Christ­ mas, and it culminated in our quick playoff exit.”

This loss, to UQTR (again) in two straight games, was especially galling to Iannone and the rest of the team. “We definitely had an excellent team. We finally had the talent and kind of team to beat UQTR. This made losing to the Patriotes especially hard to take.”

Tim shoulders some of the blame for the loss and the team’s weaker second-half performance himself.

“My line kind of faded. We just didn ’t seem to have it in the second half.” This performance and the third straight playoff loss to the Patriotes has led Iannone and the Redmen to dedicate themselves to beating UQTR. The team will be just as talented as last year, despite the loss of such key players as team captain Jamie Kompon and flashy centre Mario

Redmen stun Gaitors

BY JAM ES STEWART

A last minute field goal by McGill’s Chuck Petipas lifted the McGill Redmen to victory over the Bishop’s Gaitors in exciting fashion last Saturday at Molson Stadium.

With 17 seconds remaining the veteran place kicker put the ball through the uprights and thus gave McGill’s play-off hopes new life.

It was rookie linebacker Ken Friedman however, who really re­ suscitated McGill’s chances by pulling off a big sack, leaving Bishop’s to punt from their own end zone. When McGill returned the punt they were already within field goal range. Two runningplays later, Petipas came in and was good for three points from 23 yards out.

The victory leaves McGill with a 2-3 won-lost record and tied for the fourth and final play-off spot with the Gaitors. This sets up a virtual play-off game this Satur­ day when the two clubs meet again in Lennoxville. The winner goes on to the playoffs and the loser starts watching hockey.

If you happened to have only caught the fourth quarter of this ball game, don’t feel like you’ve been cheated. The first half was about as exciting as a Queen’s in­ tramural match. The 1-1 score at the end of three quarters was not indicative of overpowering defence but impotent offence. The longest drive in the first half was a stagger­ ing five plays. It was not until the fourth quarter that the offences came to life.

After a Petipas field goal from the 18, Bishop’s Keith Kelly be­ gan running all over McGill. The Ontario-Québec Interuniversity Football Conference rushing leader got 75 of his 153 yards on the day in one shot with a touchdown that put Bishop’s ahead 8-4. A subse­

quent field goal put the Gaitors up 11-4 with 8:50 to play.

McGill quarterback Yanik Préfontaine then went to work completing a pass to Gerry Ifill and a 34 yarder to Christian Masotti that put McGill on the 6.

Facing a third and 3 situation from the 3 McGill had to go for it and Wally Sordo powered in for the major. Petipas’ convert left the score tied at 11. Friedman’s and Petipas’ heroics took over from

there.

The victory was especially emo­ tional for the Redmen. McGill had beaten Bishop’s only once in their last 10 meetings and not at all at home since 1984. It was like a “great weight hadbeen lifted” from their shoulders, said running back Wally Sordo.

Going into the game, McGill needed back to back victories over Bishop’s to advance to the play-

DeBenedictis. The divisional rea­ lignment in the OUAA has placed McGill in the same division as traditional powerhouses UQTR, York, Ryerson, and the University of Toronto.

The Concordia Stingers will also be in McGill’s division, and this rivalry is among Iannone’s favour­ ite parts of playing hockey for McGill. “It’s pretty intense. We’ve had the upper hand recently, but the pressure is on us to stay on top.

They’re trying to do to us what we’re trying to do to Three Rivers.

But they always work very hard, and we always have good games against them. I enjoy playing those games so much, because everyone is working so hard to beat the other guy. Rivalries are what sports are all about.”

R edm en Soccer still unbeaten

BY NICK LEONARDOS Redmen Soccer Coach Claudio Sandrin is talking to his team at the half of last Thursday’s Québec University SoccerLeague(QUSL) game at Concordia. His Redmen have carried the flow of play, but have failed to finish a play and score. “Don’t kick and run”, he says. “We need to play smarter, make shorter passes, and always look for the shot” Lanky veteran forward Jeremy Prupas must have been listening, because fifteen minutes into the second half he scored the only goal either team would manage all af­ ternoon. The Redmen won 1-0.

It was not the most beautiful goal. It was more of the “excuseme” variety. Fullback Stephan Kennepohl threw it in from the sideline, and the ball took a very indirectroute to Prupas, whocaught the ball in the air with his left foot, and shot it into the top comer.

There was no real set-up for the goal, it just happened. But the Redmen definitely need to score more goals. Last year the Redmen managed to advance all the way to the nationals, despite having defi­

nite problems scoring goals.

In Thursday’s game, there was no question as to who the better team was. Concordia, in their home whites, seemed more like ghosts, running all over the field but never making a good pass. McGill beat them to every loose ball and had some great chances to score, but couldn’t. Despite playing better, McGill could have been forced to settle for a tie.

“It wasn’t exactly our best game”, said Sandrin. “Many of our best players were off their game, and it showed. We were lucky to score.” Third-year midfielder Ricky Taweel agreed, “I don’t know why, but it’s always a onegoal game against Concordia.

They’re a good team, but we just didn’t have that killer instinct.”

Coach Sandrin sent in Taweel, midfielder Dave Stewart, and Pru­ pas at the twenty-five minute mark.

McGill had started the game tenta­ tively, earning two yellow cards (warnings) for their lack of enthu­ siasm. But after the substitutions, the team woke up. The play of Taweel was outstanding. Chris Sullivan, playing right-midfield, also had a game that was a pleasure

to watch. The fullback rank of Kennepohl, Rob Panenic, Julian Barrow, and J.P. Vialard played its usually strong game.

Concordia’s attack, nonexistent for the better part of match, mus­ tered a number of late scoring chances. Stinger forward Panos Dassios had the best chance to even the score, but his shot sailed just wide of the mark. Veteran McGill goal-keeper Salim Brahimi was more than equal to the task, as he made a few outstanding saves. But it probably was one of the easiest shutouts he has earned in his ca­ reer. He now has three shutouts in four games, allowing only one goal in four games.

This victory gives the Redmen a perfect 4-0 record, good for first place in the five team QUSL. They are also ranked number 2 in the nation, behind Victoria. This win also increased the Redmen’s as­ tounding record of 79-3 in regular season play over the last ten years.

When asked if the team will lose a game this season, Ricky Taweel said, “If we get the home field advantage for the playoffs, any­ thing is possible.”

About400 fans turned up, many of whom were Bishop’s supporters....

THE SPORTS PIT

BY AARON MARGOLIS Most coaches would agree that the most difficult aspect of their profession is telling an athlete that he or she won ’t be part of the team.

The player is often young, used to being placed on a pedestal by friends andpeers, and in some cases lionized by fans and media. Many times, the player takes the news personally, as if he or she screwed up in life and is being punished for it. The situation thus becomes very delicate.

Last week the McGill Redmen hockey team made its final cuts.

Notably absent from the final ros­ ter is Richard Rubin, a backup goaltender last season.

Rubin is in his final year of undergraduate work at McGill and had figured to play one more sea­ son for the Redmen. This would have been his second year with the Redmen hockey team. As a mem­ ber last year, Rubin played spar­ ingly during the season and not at all in the playoffs.

What makes Rubin’s dismissal so interesting is the situation sur­ rounding his release.

On October 2nd, last Monday, the final roster was posted, with Rubin’s name ON it. That day he was called into Redmen coach A1 Grazys’ office and told it was a mistake, and in fact he had been cut.

Grazys maintains he had tried to reach Rubin the previous day but had been unsuccessful. A decision was then made by the coaching staff to include Rubin on the final roster and tell him the bad news after.

The reason this was done, was so Rubin would be the first to know of his situation. Had his name not been posted teammates as well as media would have known of Ru­ bin’s release before Richard Rubin knew.

Rubin claims the coaching staff had decided all along not to in­ clude him as a part of this year’s squad.

Rubin maintains that upon being called into Grazys office last Monday, he was told the Redmen had no intention of keeping him this season. According to Rubin, Grazys remarked, “We expected you to fall on your face at training camp.”

Grazys vehemently denies ever saying that.

During the conversation Grazys brought up the prospect of Rubin staying on with the team as a manager responsible for keeping game statistics.

In an interview with the Trib­ une, Grazys said, “my exact words were, it’s no consolation, but we know how you feel about being a part of the team and we would like to keep you on as a manager.”

Rubin reacted with predictable indignation and feels today that the offer was a slap in the face.

The reasoning behind Grazys’ release of Richard Rubin is that the Redmen wanted to keep a goaltender who would be around McGill for more than one year.

TRIBUNE SCOREBOARD

Rubin graduates this year while the new backup goalie S. Taylor has two years of eligibility left.

Had the Redmen kept Rubin, McGill would have two netminders in their last year of collegiate eligibility. Their other goalie is Jamie Reeve, who is in his fifth and final season.

Like any proud athlete Richard Rubin feels he should have made the team. He believes his experi­ ence and training camp perform­ ance merit him the job of backup goalie for the McGill Redmen.

Coaches A1 Grazys and Jean Pronovost have made a bold but difficult decision.

Both head coaches, in their sec­ ond year, have been forced to make the toughest decision of their young coaching careers.

Unfortunately for Richard Ru­ bin the proper choice was made.

The Redmen are sacrificing some short term safety in the nets so they are able to develop long term sta­ bility.

Richard Rubin is a team man, and a good goalie. His absence will create tension between his friends on the team and the coaching staff.

If the Redmen can overcome this and come together as a team their possibilities for success this season are limitless.
