And the parking chairman says it’s only a matter of time before the college can no longer justify taking this money from general funds. “The funding of the parking lot should not be at the expense of the quality of education,” said Mullen while mentioning that rather than pay for parking out of general funds, students could have another micro computer lab, or more electronic equipment.

ever end? To most beer drinkers it seems the beer strike that has crippled the beer supply to the province has gone on for months. It’s sad the way an entire province can be cut off from drinking beer by the three major breweries. Labatt’s, Molson’s and Carling O’Keefe are controlling the province’s beer consumption. It’s a shame how these beer giants can push people around. The big problem is over the use of aluminum cans in Ontario. Many beer workers feel this would be a threat to their job Will

usage. Therefore, it is imperative that the suffix ‘man’ be replaced with ‘woman’ wherever it is appropriate. Only then will the female gendre become enshrined within the language. Wagner said that if he heard

Canada’s divorce law Justice Minister John Crosbie announced recently that sweeping changes are planned for Canada’s divorce law in the near future. A major reform would be the reduction of the waiting period between legal separation and divorce. Currently, Canadian couples must wait three years before they can obtain their final divorce papers. Although Crosbie did not stipulate how large the pending reduction might be, there is speculation that it may be reduced to one year in cases of no-fault divorce. This change has been long-overdue. Three years is long time to have to wait to get on with the rest of your life. The way things stand, the three-year waiting period can be avoided only if one partner charges the other with physical and mental cruelty or adultery. Given the growing

number of failed marriages in Canada, the Canadian government cannot help but make itself popular with this

reform.

Bulimia

Anti-nuclear demonstrators do not have a monopoly on wanting peace, despite what they and most media seem to think.

Continuously, these protesters are referred to as peace activists in such a way as to imply that they, and they alone, are the sum total of the peace movement. With the possible exception of a few crazed lunatics, everyone or wants peace including those who support weapons such as Cruise missiles. One can disagree about the means which U.S. President Ronald Reagan goes about trying to achieve peace, however, he is as much a peace activist as those members of Greenpeace who recently protested cruise-missile testing in Canada. The many who marched in Toronto in favor of cruise missile testing here, have as much right to be called peace activists as those who protested against the cruise tests. The media should recognize that all protesters, either for or against weapons, are members of the peace movement. The only thing that differentiates the two groups is their belief in how to achieve peace.

Randall and outgoing vicepresident Rich Tryon said that based on their experience, they feel participation in executive student government will be a good experience for whoever wins the election. “You get to meet lots of people in and out of the college,’’ said Randall. “Student president or vicepresident looks good on a

They both say that a president or vice-president must know how to deal with people. A good business sense will also be invaluable to nominees. Tryon says that unfortunately, the elections become a popularity contest. In the past, the most recognizable face won the election. However this yea, there aren’t any recognizable faces, so the election may deal more with issues. Randall and Tryon both are willing to give advice to any

Walters figured they wanted to talk about the show or maybe ask for an autograph. The closer he got to them the more animated they became. When he reached the end of the aisle, expecting an admiring public, the ladies informed Walters that he had taken their shopping cart.

Blue Jays can win the race by Steve

Chapman

As the baseball season draws near, it’s important to find out the progress of our two Canadian-based teams in the major leagues. This week I’m going to discuss the progress of the Toronto Blue Jays. Toronto, as everyone realizes, is in the toughest division' in baseball. They finished second to the World Champion Detroit Tigers last year and are trying to overtake the

mighty Tigers. Unfortunately as the Blue Jays have become stronger, so have the rest of the teams in the division. As April draws near, as many as five teams should be battling it out for the American League east pennant. The Detroit Tigers are going to be strong this year, and the Blue Jays will be in the hunt all year. One can’t count out the explosive Boston Red Sox and the Baltimore Orioles. The New York Yankees are always strong because they are backed by the financial entrepreneur George Steinbrenner. It’s time to discuss the Blue Jay’s chances for 1985. If this team was in the American League west, they would win by 20 games, but since they aren’t, what are their chances this

year?

They have strengthened themselves since the end of the 1984 season. They have a realistic chance to capture the eastern division crown. They have made the changes that will make them a contender. The most obvious change is in the Blue Jay bullpen. They have plugged the holes by acquiring a strong right-hander and left-hander to fill the gaps. Bill Caudill and Gary Lavelle are the two saviors coming to the Blue Jay bull-

Another place where power is abundant is at the designated hitter position where Willie Aikens will hopefully rebound from a disastrous 1984 campaign. They also acquired Jeff Burroughs from Oakland to compensate for the loss of the powerful Cliff Johnston who flew the coop to Texas. The Jays are strong from both sides of the plate.

If you can pick the winning teams in this weekend’s NHL hockey games, you could win yourself a pair of pub tickets, courtesy of Spoke and the DSA. Here’s all you have to do: Below are 10 randomly-picked games from this weekend’s NHL schedule. To enter, circle the team you think will win each game. Notice that one game is written in capital letters. It is this weekend’s BONUS GAME. Write a two-digit number from 00 to 59 on the line beside “Time of bonus game’s last goal.’’ If your two digits correspond with the last two digits in the official time of that game’s final goal, you will be credited with THREE additional correct picks. Whoever submits the ballot with the most correct picks will be the winner. His or her name will be posted on the Spoke bulletin board next Monday.

attendance. It was common to see fewer than twenty or thirty fans at most games. The Condors should have had better fhn support, but that problem is old news. Next year the Condors should be battling for a play-off position because of what they have learned this year.

In the infield Willie Upshaw is strong at first base, Damaso Garcia is a gold glove candidate at second base, Tony Fernandez is an unknown commodity at the shortstop position, and at third base Ranee Mulliniks and newcomer Kelly Gruber won’t set any modern day George Brett standards, but they will get the job done. In the outfield, Lloyd Moseby is the most talented of the threesome and will soon be gold-glove winner. George Bell lacks experience but with increased playing time he will improve. Jesse Barfield has shown promise the last two years and probably has one of the strongest throwing arms in the major leagues. The only place the Jays lack depth is on the bench. Right now, they’re weak in back-up outfielders with experience and lack experience in back-up infielders. The Jays have the potential to go all the way to the World Series this year. If everyone stays healthy and the bullpen can protect a lead, the Blue Jays will be a force to reckon

The only way the Blue Jays will suffer is if they are hit with numerous injuries. They lack the depth to fill the holes at key positions in the infield and outfield. This is the way the American League East shapes up for
