The author points out that Canada is in real difficulty in its trade relations with the rest of the world, and that these problems are likely to get worse. Prescriptions for the current deficit are suggested, and prospects for the future are explored.

The different options available for help depend entirely on the student’s need. Your teacher is often the first line helper as s/he knows the subject matter and is aware of your areas of weakness. If one to one help in a subject is needed, a student tutor may be available for assistance. If your study skills (such as note taking, exam preparation, text book reading) or time management need bolstering, then we have material available as well as individual counselling help.

The Learning Resources Centre is also a source of remedial aid in individual subject areas and you thought they only had books! So if you’re feeling like you have to pull up your socks as far as grades go, or even if you want to help someone else pull up their socks, come to the coun-

Aside from treating head colds and head aches, Stormont also organizes the blood donor clinics that take place in the lounge, and also is in charge of running the eye clinic that just occurred. Although last year the eye testing wasn’t held because a suitable location wasn’t available, the clinic is an annual affair.

The health services is one of the few services to the students for which the student doesn’t pay. Any treatment by the doctor is covered by O.H.I.P.; however, if the student isn’t fortunate enough to be covered, he or she does get the bill later. The doctor visits the college twice a week, half a day, between the hours of 9:00 - 11:30. He also visits the Waterloo campus and the University of Waterloo, and runs his own private practice. The health services are not manditory. The provincial government doesn’t .demand that every college has a nurse or doctor on campus.

Mature students have unique problems by Ric Ament Terror, self doubt and stress are problems that all students

confront, especially during exams. But for a mature student these problems may be complicated by circumstances that an average student would not encounter.

One of these connections, for mature students in the technology division, is Mike Lavery. Lavery teaches mechanical drafting and engineering and he has offered some of his time to discuss problems with mature students.

However, no one has approached Lavery for assistance.

Cleminson feels that most students are getting the necessary help from their program. Otherwise, he said, they probably have the skills to deal with the problems themselves. “A lot of students here have a lot going for them,” Cleminson said.

Betty previously worked at the

as a switchboard operator. But she left that job and moved to Kitchener. When she tried to find work she discovered that most employers wanted graduates only. “1 came to the conclusion that if I was going to find a job in which I would eventually be able to support myself and my three children, I was going to have to go back to school and take a course,” she said. Upon her return to school, Betty found that her greatest problem was the organization between her school work and her children. ‘‘It’s different when you’re working,” she said. ‘‘You do your eight hours, you go home and you have time to spend with your children. But when you are in school and you have work to do. ..there just isn’t enough hours in the day anymore.” Betty also expressed concern over the loss of her friends since she started college. “It seems that I have lost all contact with them.

and Equators rock Waterloo

Villians by Mike Luce

The Villains and the Equators brought their Reggae-Ska festival to the Waterloo Motor Inn November 5. Both bands played highly charged dance music for the packed ballroom crowd. The Villains have an interesting front man in Count Steve. He literally charges around the stage in a bullish stance, taking short, choppy rhythm-inspired steps while doing the lead vocal chores. As well, he counters with some excellent steel drum work. In addition the Villains are drums, bass, guitar and tenor saxophone. Their music is reminiscent of the group Madness. They do a great version of their song One Step Closer. Skin Head Records have released their first record, an LP entitled Life of Skin. The band has emigrated from

London, England to Canada’s west coast. The Equators from Birmingham, England play an up-tempo, rollicking form of reggae. Lead singer, Donald Bailey really moves while on stage, shuffling and jiving even while playing the

melodical and percussion. Brother Leo Bailey is the drummer and brother Rocky Bailey plays keyboards. They are joined on stage by a bassist and guitarist and for most of the show, the Villains’ sax player too.

The Equators first LP, Hot, has recently been released on

CBS records. If their show is any indication, the record should be a good one. The Villains and the Equators pack a dynamite musical onetwo punch. They are fun watch and fun to dance to.

In hockey action, Condors now have a record of 1-1 and fourth place in the west division, following Friday night’s 8-1 road loss to Canadore in North Bay.
