S lo w r e c y c lin g p ic k u p s c a u s e p a p e r a v a la n c h e BY FARAAZ SIDDIQI_____ Students enthusiastic about us ing McGill’s new recycling pro gram may be finding that nobody is making use of their paper, say two student officials. According to executives from the Students’ Society and Engi neering Undergraduate Society (EUS), pileups of newspapers and other papers are making messes in the McConnell Engineering and Union Buildings because no one is picking the papers up. David Ohayon, EUS VP (Inter nal), has complained to McGill’s administration about the mess, and says he is not the only one to do so. “Even the porters are complain ing about the mess,” he said. Ohayon says the pile-up consti tutes a fire hazard for the building. He contends that the bin in the copy center of McConnell has never been emptied. “The bins get filled in three days. I had to start throwing papers away. I am totally for the program, but it needs more manpower,” he said.

Students’ Society VP (Internal) Ray Satterthwaite said students were taking advantage of the recy cling program, but added that papers tend to stay in the Union Building for a long time. “People are keen on doing it Now it just has to work,” Satterthwaite said. The student-run Québec Public Interest Research Group QPIRG/ GQRIP started the recycling proj ect in February 1988. McGill’s administration began handling the project’s logistics at the end of last semester. QPIRG is responsible for educating McGill students about recycling. In July, the university hired the non-profitcompany Recuperaction Energie on a trial basis until Janu ary. Administrators plan to evalu ate the company’s performance in November. The company picks up paper on Wednesdays and Thursdays from the ten McGill buildings involved in the program: Administration, Bronfman, Burnside, Education, Frank Dawson Adams, Macdonald

new s b r i e f s GRADUATES PUSH FOR AUTONOMY The Post Graduate Students’ Society (PGSS) will be fighting once more to gain independence from SSMU this week. The PGSS executive met last night to discuss forming a “No” committee to oppose the November 14/15 referendum question proposing higher graduate representation on SSMU Council. On Wednesday, PGSS Council will vote on whether or not to form the committee. Eric Darier, PGSS VP (External), said “things are moving very fast this week.” In order to receive recognition and funding for the “No” committee, the PGSS must gather 100 signatures in favour of the committee by the next SSMU Council meeting, on November 7. According to Darier, 96% of McGill’s graduate students already voted to sever their ties with Students’ Society in referenda held in 1988 and earlier this fall. “No matter what the result of the referendum is, we’ll still be argu ing for autonomy,” said Darier. MANAGEMENT STUDENTS HOST QUÉBEC SCHOOLS CONFERENCE Staff and students from 8 Québec business schools will be at McGill this weekend to discuss problems in their programs. Gaétan Romanelli, MUS VP (External), said one of the main topics of the Regroupement des étudiant(e)s et faculties d’administration du Québec (REFAQ) conference will be the formulation of a policy on tuition fee hikes. “We’re trying to help each other find better policies. We want to tell other people what’s happening in our school, and find out what’s happening in their schools,” said Romanelli. The conference, in French, will begin at noon Saturday in Bronfman 501. MCGILL DIPLOMATS WIN IN WASHINGTON, D.C. A team of McGill students swept North America’s most prestigeous international-crisis simulation competition in Washington, D.C. last weekend. The McGill International Relations Society sent 11 delegates to six committees - designed to simulate the U.N. Security Council, the Organization of African Unity, the Organization of American States, the Warsaw Pact, the Asian Summit and the U.S. National Security Council. Of the six delegations, four won first prizes and one won an honourable mention. McGill returned from D.C. with similar laurels last fall. The National Collegiate Security Conference, hosted by Geor getown University, has attracted top international affairs students from across Canada and the United States for 14 years.

Engineering, Macdonald-Harring ton, McConnell, Redpath and McLennan Libraries and the Un ion Building. But because of re sponsibilities to the recycling pro grams at Concordia and UQAM, Recuperaction Energie only goes through McGill’s buildings once a week. Company director Regis Potvin said student support for recycling programs has been strong. The company’s intake has increased from 800 to 1000 tons per week with the addition of McGill and other recycling ventures. QPIRG worker Sarah Seckinger attributed the delays in picking up papers to the difficulties of starting a new system. She said that such problems as the moving of floor bins and the breakdown of the company’s truck contribute even

849-3130

more to the delays. “It’s hard for us to educate when logistics are behind,” she said. Associate Vice-Principal (Physi cal Resources) Sam Kingdon added that, with enough timeand aproper evaluation, recycling problems will

be solved. “We’ll simply work out a situ ation where we store a bit [of pa per] or we can ask the company to pick up twice a week in one area and pick up once every two weeks in other buildings,” he said.

The philistine conspiracy I am reluctant to make the claim that Robert Bourassa and Claude Ryan are savvy politicians par excellence, but it is the terribly unfortunate truth. By politicians, I refer to the slimy, repugnant variety. Like lab rats in cocaine-dependency experiments, they have mastered the art of sacrificing long term gain for cheap immediate gratification; take their education financing policy (or lack thereof) as an example. One of the wonderful things about Canada is its delicate balance between federalism and regionalism. Wonderful, until irresponsible and unprincipled provincial governments, such as Bourassa’s current junta, run amok within their areas of exclusive jurisdiction. The disturbing lack of concern for education priorities on the part of our ersatz Premier is more than regrettable. It will have devastating effects upon a province which has historically been controlled from elsewhere; London, New York, Toronto, and increasingly, Ottawa.(!) The rise of a new, empowered class of Qucbecois(e) will be seriously com prom ised b y th eL ib eral cabal’ s sh ock in gd isregardforits w ithering

system of higher education. McGill, as Québec’smajorresearch institution, has been consistently burned by a provincial government which has been too myopic and timid to see Québec’s own interests, and too content to let tired anachronisms about “that bastion of English power” make political headway. In fact, McGill represents a shining example of the sort of bilingual and multicultural society towards which Canadians should be working. Perhaps, in all the handwringing and din about the Meech Lake Accord, we have forgotten this. Bourassa has, but then his vision extends as far as his next glass of milk. Principal David Johnston made acourageous speech to the Canadian Club this month, questioning whether McGill has been consistently underfunded because it is perceived as “Anglo” and thus makes an easy political scapegoat. It doesn’t take much genius to answer this one, but Johnston’s call is important because he has finally stated publicly what university administrators have known and whispered about for years. If only Claude Ryan and his bootlicking flunkies would be so honest. The recent tuition fee controversy is a perfect example of the Liberal camarilla’s shameless lack of integrity. By obscuring the real issue— that government underfunding is the only reason for McGill’s current predicament— the government has shrewdly attempted to divide students amongst themselves over what is a tangental matter at best. Bourassa would have us believe that by paying higher tuition fees, we can “do our part” to stop underfunding. I, for one, would happily pay $2,000 tuition if I were guaranteed more library books, smaller classes and improved facilities, and a comprehensive loans and bursaries system to allow all students to experience the exhilaration of McGill. Such a guarantee is not forthcoming from the seedy pack of careerists who currently run this province, and until it is, I see no reason whatsoever to approve such an increase. In fact, I’m willing to bet that any raise in tuition fees would be met by a proportionate reduction in provincial contribution; the Liberals may need the money, methinks, for their own pork-barrelling purposes. As politicians of the lowest form, the only thing that these jokers understand is political pressure. If the environment can be made a top priority issue in the blink of an eye, why not education? Only popular protest and discontent can provide the basis for fundamental change. Paul Michell

Is the PIT in the pits? It’s not whether you win or lose, it’ s what game you play. Apparently. The October 24 issue of the Tribune was a striking example of the inequalities almost invariably seen in the coverage of McGill’s varsity teams. After a weekend filled with Martlet and Redmen victories, the Tribune's writers and editors seemed more concerned, as always, with the “high profile” sports. The two longest sports articles were dedicated to the football team— returning from a (suffice it to say) less than successful tripto Queen’s. On the same weekend, the Martlet soccer team won the Québec title. They merited a few short paragraphs. After all, who cares about the women s soccer team? Their men’s counterpart was credited with a similar, though slightly longer, article. The field hockey team was granted one photograph and a few choice words. Their victory moves them to the OWIAA championships.

I write in response to the letter of Harold Wilson, published in the Tribune [October 17.] Two of Mr. Wilson’s comments suggest that the graduate students employed in McGill’s philosophy department as instructors of undergraduate courses are somehow unqualified to be teaching. This is quite mistaken. The philosophy department considers teaching to be an important part of the professional training of its graduate students, and a positive benefit to the undergraduates. Students are chosen to be instructors by the department as a wholeon thebasisof their academic record and their teaching experience and evaluations; they are advised by a member of the faculty as to how they might improve their teaching, and their performance is evaluated by the students in the usual manner, and again by the department. The graduate instructors are excellents students in the first place; they are chosen with care; they are advised

Hardly a noteworthy accomplishment. (?) Unfortunately, this photo was surrounded by more of Aaron Margolis’s incessant blather about the football team. This time, even he wasn’t pumping the team’s collective ego— yet he was provided with almost an entire student-body-sponsored page. ...Which leads me to a question I’ve always wanted to ask. Why is his column called “The Sports Pit”? Wouldn’t “The Hockey/Football Pit” be a bit less deceptive? Perhaps “The Male-Dominated, HighlyFunded Sports Pit”? How about just “The Pits”? McGill’s varsity athletes are not limited to mere football and hockey players. Just ask a volleyball player, an oarsperson, a swimmer, a runner.... If Aaron Margolis’s scope is so limited, perhaps it’s time to find a new columnist.

on pedagogy; they are evaluated. Quite aside from their own individual talents I can say without hesistation that there is no reason to suppose that they are unqualified for die tasks they are assigned. They provide the undergraduates with the benefits of their expertise in a particular field, as well as their enthusiam. It is routine pracice in most good graduate schools to allow, and sometimes even to require graduate students to act as instructors (for example, the University of Toronto, theUniversity of Western Ontario, the University of Pittsburgh). That courses are simply asigned to graduate students only after faculty have been assigned their courses is simply a sign of academic hierarchy, and not a sign that graduate students are a last resort. Moreover, it is not uncommon to hire as lecturers (teaching on contract, full time) graduate students from other institutions who have not yet finished the Ph.D. If we can hire such students from other institutions to teach our undergraduates, we can surely allow that our own students in the same stage of progress are sufficiently qualified to teach the same undergraduates. The philosophy department does not consider its graduate instructors to be a liability to the department; on the contrary, we consider them a great asset both as colleagues and as teachers.

Students fear job loss under casual policy BY STEPHANIE SMALL A new casual worker policy at McGill has left at least one student worried about the future of her job on campus. Under the new policy, only undergraduate students taking a minimum of 18 credits a year and graduate students in their formal residency period are eligible for casual employment. At the beginning of the term, students applying for casual posi tions in some departments of the University were asked to sign forms stating that they were full-time students. One student with a casual job, who asked not to be identified, recently dropped a course and became a part-time student. Now she is worried she will lose herjob. “I’m hoping that it’s so late in the term that if they notice they won’t fire me,” she said. The policy was negotiated this summer by representatives of the McGill Non-Academic Staff As sociation (MUNASA) and the University. MUNASA President Trevor Garland said he hopes that by cutting back on casual employ ment, more people will have ac cess to regular jobs, whether the jobs are full-time, part-time or sessional. Regular employees re ceive access to benefits and higher pay than casual staff. Garland said he would like to see students provided “with posi tions that will pay them properly and give them access to benefits.” Concessions were granted to the University to retain casual employ ment since it enables more posi

tions to be provided for students who need jobs. Abolishing all casual employ ment and creating only regular positions in its place would proba bly mean fewer jobs for students and higher student services fees. B ut student groups at McGill are not happy with the policy. Stu dents’ Society VP (University Affairs) Kate Morisset said she is worried part-time students who need jobs will not get hired, while full-time students will continue to be exploited as casual workers. Lee Iverson, President of the Post Graduate Students’ Society (PGSS), says that graduate stu dents in additional sessions will not be hired for non-academic positions on campus. “I can’t see that a non-academic association should be standing up and saying, ‘Hire students,’ when the students haven’t been saying that themselves,” Garland said. However, both Morisset and Iver son say students were not con sulted while the casual policy was being written. The casual policy has been in effect since October 15. A consul tative committee has been set up to study the policy. But according to committee member, and President ofStudents’ Society, Santo Manna, it is hard to tell how any changes will come about since it is “after the fact”. Meanwhile, part-time students at McGill with casual jobs are left wondering when the administra tion will catch up with them, and if they will lose their jobs.

University relations office works behind the scenes BY LARA FRIEDLANDER Students hearing about contro versies and achievements in the McGill community in the last two weeks may not be aware that the same office was largely respon sible for both. Though few students know of it, the University Relations Office has a strong role in McGill’s relations with the community. The Office recently helped McGill win more of the new federal “Centres of Excellence” research grants than any other university. At the same time, it helped Principal Johnston write a controversial speech on underfunding that worsened rela tions between McGill and the pro vincial government. The federal government an nounced on Thursday that McGill will be the administrative centre of 3 of the 14 Centres begun by the Ministry of Science and Technol ogy in a four-year promotion of

research in science and technol ogy. Another Centre will be run in conjunction with the Université de Montréal. McGill will also be par ticipating in six otherCentres. Total funding for all of the Centres will be about $240 million. University Relations Office Director Jean-Pierre Morin and his staff helped McGill applicants put together proposals for facilities, equipment and staff. The Centres were chosen by an international committee from 150 proposals from Canadian universities. TheUniversity Relations Office, located in Burnside Hall, has eight staff members, including the Edi tor and Associate Editor of the McGill Reporter. Its responsibili ties include internal communica tions, media relations, counselling, and general public and community relations. Morin said underfunding is a major concern of the Office. His staff had a role in the October 16

speech made by Principal David Johnston to the Canadian Club in which he suggested that govern ment discrimination against anglo phones was causing some of McGill’s underfunding problems. “We participated in the drafting of the speech, arranged the inter views and distributed the speech,” said Morin.

media relations. Karen Seidman, who reports on education issues for the Montréal Gazette, often goes to the University Relations Office for contacts and information. “They are pretty helpful and can usually answer questions, but they are more representative of the administration ’ s point of view,” said Seidman. The University Relations Office frequently handles situations that are potentially detrimental to McGill’s reputation. Morin cited as examples the issues of South African divestment and ethical aspects of research. “The first thing we do is tell the truth, then we gauge the damage of events and try to find solutions,” Morin said. Morin said that a major priority for his department in the next year or two would be the issue of tuition fees.

Shedding propriety BY JASON ARBUCKLE

Documentary captures spirit of Women's Conference BY KIM FARLEY There are more uses for video than letting us look at a dressed up image of ourselves in a thirtysomething mirror. Documentaries introduce us to people in cultures and experiences outside of mainstream North Amer ica, and can relate stories ,of people who are coping with seemingly in tractable problems. One such prob lem is discrimination, the focus of the National Film Board’ s documentary Holding Our Own, which will be shown this Friday night as part of Fireworks , the re gional Women’s Conference being hosted by the McGill Women’s Union Nov. 2-5. The film examines the plight of women and children in the postMarcos Philippines, focusing on a group of female squatters who are facing eviction. It traces their at tempts to organize and fight the local bureaucracy. Coming from back grounds in which they have faced consistent economic and gender discrimination, the women have no

timization of both women and chil dren who live below the poverty line in Philippine cities. The camera moves into the prostitution houses ofthe female street children. Aphoto of two laughing eight year-olds, swimming naked in the ocean, is accompanied by the narration, “This photo was taken from a Japanese tourist brochure”. Children are shown sniffing shoemaker’s glue, which they use to fend off their hunger pangs because it is cheaper than food. Henderson’s inclusion of these scenes forces us to see the urgency of the women’s need to provide food for their children, and understand how dire their need is to organize. For these women, dignity and self respect are not looked upon as ways to gain happiness; they are the tools of survival. Holding Your Own will run as part of the Women's Film Night, which startsFriday at 7:30in Union B-09. Check schedule in the Trib une’s What's On for the complete schedule of the Conference, which runs all day Friday and Saturday.

confidence that they will be listened to. The film records the transforma tion when a community organizer named Tessie Fernandez comes to live among the squatters and teach them how to speak to the politicians in the only language they will re spect: dignity. Filmmaker Ann Henderson tells their story in an engaging way; the film is often moving butnever melodramaticHenderson’s vision allows the humour in an otherwise heart rending situation to come out. One scene shows the diminuitive Fern andez standing in front of a huge group of timid women, teaching them how to manipulate the male politician and the female landowner on whose benevolence they depend. “Okay, if he evades you, say ‘Look, if you don’t have the power, say so’. Play with his ego. To her, say ‘Mrs. Sozo, you have the chance to become one of the first rich landowners to be generous under the new land reforms.” But a lot of the film concentrates on the misery of the womens’ pre dicament, showing the vic

It begins soon after you enter the tiny, intimate Morrice Hall theatre. It gathers momentum as a fake tiara’d wig and generic post cards are packed into a suitcase onstage. And by the time Mary pronounces, “Ladies, shall we bushwhack?”, you are on a jour ney that envelops you in the re freshing, fantastic world of On the Verge. Settle in, get comfortable it is an immensely satisfying trip. Eric Overmyer’s play recounts the adventures of Mary, Fanny, and Alexandra, three “polythopians” of the late nineteenth cen tury. Experienced and sophisti cated travellers, the ladies are now exploring the wilds of Terra In cognita in 1888. They eventually penetrate a lot more than dewy, dangerous jungles, however, after they pay the Toll Troll and cross the chasm (literally) to the future. And what a snazzy, flashy future it is - Nicky’s Pelligrosa Bar and

Grill, USA, 1955. The brilliant dialogue of On The Verge reveals Overmyer the poet as well as playwright Eloquent descrip tions such as “an origami crow ... across a saffron sky,” abound. Lan guage is extremely important to the play, being the arena where the cul tures of past, present and future clash The wit of the dialogue is humour ously subtle. As the future begins to make its presence felt, contempo rary American lingo begins to infil trate proper Victorian speech. Or, as Fanny puts it: “I have seen the future and it is slang!” Playwright Eric Overmeyer’s characters are attuned to “fanmail from the future,” making his hero ines more hip than your average Victorian. Alex talks of “Red Chi nese” and the three discover, among other things, a box of Kraft Dinner in the jungle. It is fascinating - and disturbing - to see how our contem porary culture can be instantly summed up by Cool Whip and

Torvill and Dean: ic goes beyc BY ELIN GARDENER______ Right now, the British ice dancers Torvill and Dean are skating across the continent. The duo’s North American tour came to the Montréal Forum last Wednesday. Their show lived up to the standard their past has set for them, but this was no Ice Capades. Those who went expecting infinite rows of skaters kicking sequined legs to a tired beat, or even to see a few good triple axles, would have been disappointed by the unconven

tional style of Torvill and Dean. It is the originality of the pair which has always made them exciting. These ice dancing champions are known for their innovative style and imaginative choreography. For this show, they’ve hooked up with a troupe of Russian skaters, and the result was a performance with an en ergetic, strong pace. Technically, the show was excel lent Each skater was perfect in her or his edges, rhythms, and spins, and there were no ‘weak links’ in the troupe.

out not personality Donald Duck. Is this how we will appear in the history books? As the three heroines, Nicole Zylstra (Mary), Jeany Park (Fanny), and Stephanie McNamara (Alex) rise to the occasion of their dialogue, giving wonderful portrayals of women who shed their propriety, but none of their personalities, to the future. The rational and relentlessly wellmannered, but “exceedingly anec dotal” Mary is a performance to relish from Nicole Zylstra. A foil for her proper restraint is the Alexandra: “I happen to be a real enthusiast.” Stephanie McNamara charges her character with a zealous, exuberant energy that is hugely entertaining. Fanny emerges, in Jeany Park’s hands, as the most likeable of the three with her refined manners and ironic snort of a laugh. Steve Grif fith transforms himself from Yeti to Niçk to six other creations with par ticular vigour, though he is more successful with the energetic crea tions, than with the reserved Mr.

Coffee. , Directed by Anne McDougall, On the Verge is brilliantly inter preted. The small theatre becomes a particular bonus; when, for in stance, the beautiful lunar snow falls, the lights sparkle on audi ence and actor - linking them in wonderment. Everyone is “pris oner in a kaleidoscope”. As 1989 nears its close, we look back upon the eighties with reluc tant nostalgia. Yet we must soon turn - however uneasily - to face the last decade of the millenium. It is to be embraced or to be scorned? On theVerge offers intriguing com ment on both views, but it is Mary who provides a conclusion: “I have such a yearning for the future... it is boundless”.

lancing finesse that d 'pretty' The ice was always busy, with a rge number of skaters on it at the ime time. Often, group numbers ere arranged to spotlight two or ree groups, each one performing milar manoevers with subtle vari ions. In this show, your eyes were :ver allowed to rest Those who went for the theatrics ould not have gone away empty inded. Although no jumps are alwed in ice-dancing, there were enty of lifts, with the males and males switching roles as the lifter d the lifted. In fact, gender was

downplayed in all aspects of the show, right down to costumes. Be cause of this artistic and athletic ex cellence were emphasized. The choreography in particular benefitted from this. Torvill and Dean are experts at wringing every insinuation of movement and emo tion from their music, and at fusing themselves together to form a unit instead of two skaters of the oppo site sex. In this show, nothing was restricted to the pretty, and the result was innovative, exciting skating.

It all started three years ago in the mind of a young Montréal entrepre neur. Duncan McTavish had an idea, and he phoned a few people to tell them about it. Within a few months, twelve bands combined to create four nights of concerts, and the Montréal New Music Festival was bom. But earlier this year there was trouble. A reluctant sponsor forced McTavish and his Faze productions company to cancel the festival, and some worried that the end was near. In stepped St. Ambroise beer, a Montréal brewing company willing to support local acts and meet the expansion requirements of the festi val. What follows is a ten day, fifty band list of acts guaranteed to please just about anybody. Montréal has a knack for festivals; they seem some times to grow of their own accord. Though originally intended as an opportunity for Montréal bands to reach the public, this year’s New Music Fest features a variety of outof-town bands from both inside Canada and abroad. Though there is some dissent concerning this, most bands concede that the organizers

have done a good job organizing the shows. Says Ripcordz guitarist/ singer Paul Gott, “They’ve broken up the lists abit, so that if a foreign(to Montréal)band is lousy, at least people can see a good Montréal band.” For many bands, the New Music Fest has become their best chance for media coverage. The press list is endless, and bands looking for a contract offer or at least a grain of interest can be sure to give some intense performances where ability allows. But not everybody takes the New Music Fest so seriously. As Jerry of Jerry Jerry and the Sons of Rhythm Orchestra said, “We’re doing it

because we enjoy it...money is alien to us, we just want the essentials.” I could hardly have expected anything else from such a veteran of the club circuit. The New Music Fest has also expanded to three venues, and we can all be thankful that the list does not include that concrete shoebox known as McGill’s ballroom. Club Soda(5240 Park Avenue, bus #80)is the best for sound, lights, and seat ing, but drink prices will make look ing at your wallet the next morning

rather unpleasant. Foufounes Electriques (87 Sl Catherine E.) has everybody beat on atmosphere, and it is here that you will find most of the hard-core/ metal hands playing. Café Campus (3315 Queen Mary, Snowdon Metro)has plenty of room for sure, but the accoustics are only fair. Café Campus is a student pub with student prices, but shows here have yet to be an nounced. A few suggestions...for the lover of country twang or rockabilly: Hodads with Timbuk 3(Nov. 2), the immortal Ray Condo with folky Mere ImagedNov. 5)...hardcore/ thrash/speed: Asexuals with Zeppclinesque Soundgarden and Ripcordz( Nov. 3)...for pure spectacle: Gwar{Nov. 2)...heavy funk: Bool Sauce(Nov. 9)...some fine reggae: Kali & Dub Inc.(Nov. 1 l)...gospel/country/blues/rock wi th some of the finest guitarists on the Montréal music scene: Jerry Jerry with The Scraps^Nov. 12). Take a week off, exams are a good month away. Tickets for all shows are avail able in advance at Sadies in the Union and at all participating bars.
