con,fro Students are allowed to use powers authorized to them as long as their decisions do not conflict with administration policies. That is what habitat’s student council found out this week when it attempted to give psychology prof Fred Kemp free room in one of the residence’s lounges in exchange for his services as a student councillor in residence. In a meeting last monday night, it was reported that village warden Ron Eydt had given council the right to decide the manner in which the lounges were to be used. Council voted’ to have Kemp move in as councillor, and he has been living in one of the lounges for over a week. But both the council and Kemp later received notification from Eydt that he had already appointed two student councillors \ and Kemp would have to move out. Eydt explained to approximately 200 habitat residents the reason for his actions, that under the Ontario housing act, no faculty member could stay in a student residence. “I am in no way able to allow any member of the faculty to have accommodation here.” he said. Council president, Dave Ishikawa, replied that due to the drug problem Kemp’s services would outweigh the cost of his staying in residence, and he would not be putting a student out of a room. One student, Ron Trbovitch, who has worked for the housing office, refuted Eydt’s argument by saying the housing office is not interested in the operation of residences, but only in the money it receives from the university. He added that the office is only concerned with providing beds for students and not with other facilities, such as lounges. Council then passed a motion to get in touch with the housing

He said that French had been previously contacted by Eydt and had been given the impression that habitat would turn into an another Rochedale if Kemp was allowed to stay. However, Ishikawa continued, French’s position changed during his meeting with him, and he admitted that Kemp’s staying in the lounge does not conflict with the act. Ishikawa said that no final decision has yet been made. Kemp was originally ordered to be out by last monday, but an extension has been granted to him until the matter is settled.

Atlatthewg appoints Gel/at/y, Minus to neiu admin posts Administration president, Burt Matthews announced the appointment of Bruce Gellatly as vice president, finance and operations and Jay ,Minas as director of operations analysis at his bi-weekly press conference this morning. The appointments are the first made following the recent management study carried out by Cresap, McCormick and Paget on the administration and organization of the university. Gellatly’s post in finance and operations is an essential component in ensuring the continuance of the present administration and organization, while Minas and the operations analysis position will deal with information collection, analysis and distribution for more efficient administration and decision making, now and in long term planning. Gellatly has been treasurer since 1966 and has been with the

administrative staff since the inception of the university in 1957. Both academically and administratively, Minas has served the university since 1964. His three year term will also allow him time to teach philosophy. Matthews said, “The appointments reflect not only recommendations made in the management consultant’s report but also recent developments that have been underway at the university.” Operations analysis encompasses the directing of the development and maintenance of a uni-

Even Burt Matthews sat through the whole evening. Council decided after much discussion to pass a motion. The Telos international symposium, requesting a thousand dollars,

received a subsidy of 500 dollars from the federation for the symposium this weekend. The motion was delayed from last meeting because of budget cuts that have yet to be made now that grad fees are not collected. It was decided that the federation could put forward at least half the requested amount at this time.

The miles for millions marchers last Saturday were sure to find their way back, for they left four truckloads of garbage in their wake. The K-W voyageurs, a group of conservation-minded outdoors people, undertook the job of cleaning up after the marchers.

The voyageurs were not blaming the marchers, however. As one Voyageur, Mary Ann Jantzi of the housing office put it, “The organizers should be required to place dispensers on the way in order to get a permit for the event.”

The department of integrated studies, apparently recovered from the internal hassles it went through last year, has taken a giant step forward in democratizing its decision-making processes. At the first general meeting of the year, held Wednesday, september 30, the members in attendance decided to do a way with its internal beaurocracy (preciously vested in a management committee of students and faculty), and instituted a system (non-system? ) of collective decision-making. From now on, the membership at large will determine the directions and choices of the unit in

However, amphetamine abusers have begun to ask for it. (The drug incidently, has been banned in Sweden.)

By November’of last year, other problems had become apparent. Thousands of elementary school children were wandering about

Washington (CUPI) - a United States congressman plans to investigate the use of drugs to quiet overactive school children. New Jersey’s democratic representative Cornelius Gallagher, opened hearings tuesday as chairman of a subcommittee to find out whether drugs are being confined to their medically recognized use in treating braindamaged children. There have been allegations, that the drugs are in fact being used to keep normal, bright youngsters from fidgeting in boring classrooms. One New Jersey man explained that he had refused permission for his seven year old daughter to be treated with drugs despite pressure from the school psychologist. “ (The psychologist) was annoyed with me,” he said, “and told me that soon my little girl would start to masturbate as a result of all this extra energy. She made me feel like a stupid, neglectful parent.” In Omaha, Nebraska, between five and ten per cent of the elementary school children have been led by their teachers into taking “behaviour-modifying” drugs. That’s 3,000 to 6,000 kids. For a little over a year, teachers have been encouraged by the Omaha- school board and its president, Merle Musselman, to single out those “Hyperactive” and manageable” students who seem prone to disrupt regular classroom routine and to recommend that those students go on drugs. The drugs, technically prescribed by private doctors, are usually one of the anti-depressant drugs which usually have a stimulating effect on the user. Although the mode of operation of most of these drugs is not clearly understood, they of ten have an opposite effect on children.

erwuy for outh hostel by Norm chevron

Beers staff

We don’t know the fate of next summer’s youth hostel yet, but people are at least talking. Last tuesday night, about 25 people came to a meeting of experiment ‘70, the official name of everyone interested in organizing a youth hostel in Kitchener. There’s an open invitation to anyone who would like to join experiment ‘70there will be a lot of people needed for setting up and then maintaing the drop-in. One suggested location for the hostel is one wing of the Kitchener armories. The first step being taken by the group now is to make contact with the national task force on hostels to point out the importance of setting up a hostel, in hopes of gaining financial support from the government. When that meeting takes place sometime next week, there are going to be several points presented to the national task force as reasons for having the hostel. The points, as made by the people at the meeting, were: @The hostel will be an intercultural learning experience, for all the young people travelling through Canada in the summer, as they meet kids from different parts of the country. @It will help bring the young people of Canada together. (However, some doubt was expressed that the government will consider that a good thing) . @It will provide a place for people to crash.

@There will be many people coming to town for rock festivals, visiting the university campuses, and who-knows- what-else. l The campus center became a crash joint for a lot of people last summer when there was no hostel, and this upset some elements of the community. That would likely happen again to some extent if there were no hostel next summer. (The fat angel drop-in served for a time as a hostel last summer, but that was stopped before the summer was over. ) .A hostel would keep people off the street at night. This is likely to prevent crime to some degree. @It would also avoid a lot of busts for vagrancy, which is a drag for both the police and the vagrants. @Running the hostel would be an: opportunity of learning democratic procedure and co-operation for those involved. Experiment ‘70 isn’t quite starting from scratch, as there has already been positive contact made with Ed Smee, a man in the department of secretary of state, who is a liaison officer for southern Ontario. Support from the national tast force is all that is required now. As soon as the NTF has been spoken to, there will be another meeting in the campus centre for all interested people. Anyone who would like ‘to take part in the program of experiment ‘70 could leave a message at Integrated Studies, extension 3636.

A leadership by David chevron

Cubberley staff

TORONTO - sunday afternoon, in the Canadian room of the royal york hotel Stephen Lewis gained the leadership of the Ontario NDP. His election was the outcome of a particularly smoothly played political match. From the outset Lewis’ victory seemed assured; after the lunch break the hall slowly filled to capacity, the air crammed with the dull green on black of pro-Lewis posters, broken every so often by a pocket of Pitman posters. The audience was immediately vocal, the room filled with chants.

Reserved

yet tough

It was interesting to note how closely the actions of each group of followers approximated the salient characteristics of its leader. Lewis, the firebrand, was complemented by a crowd that was loud and boisterous; Pitman, reserved and yet tough, drew supporters who in the main were quiet and content to wait. Pitman made a concerted effort to gain the prize, but his push, though brilliantly engineered, came a little too late. He was

race profile: effectively set up by Terry Greer, who suggested he could build a “bridge of trust” between the party and the electorate. Billed as “a future prime minister, already in action”, Pitman was made out to be the Ed Schreyer of the east, an image which should have coalesced well with the approval he gained from the three Toronto dailies. Next on the list was Morton Shulman, official socialist wildman of the Ontario legislature. Shulman, self-possessed and nearly legendary, quickly commanded the audience and proceeded to do a very strong character pitch for Pitman. He spoke confidently of the “assured support” of the electorate and guaranteed “wholesale defection” to NDP ranks.

Air of sincerity

-

It was a -hard performance to follow, but Pitman proved himself worthy of the task. Greying with an overwhelming air of sincerity, the man seemed to inspire trust. At ease at the podium, smoothly eloquent he spoke ruefully of past NDP achievements, belittling what he termed “the sole condolence of rhetorical opposition.”

power

He cited the case of one senator from New Mexico who opposed cessation of rights granted under treaties because he realized that “there are enough voting Indians in New Mexico to keep him in or out of office in a close election race. ” “Especially noticeable among our younger Indians, he said is a trend to make the federal governments realize that today’s Indian, a bit better educated than his forebears, is bent on demanding a recognition of treaty guarantees in the sense that Indians understood these guarantees, generations ago.” Patterson pointed out the plight of the Tuscaroraras near Niagara Falls got more coverage in the communist Cuba press than in the local Niagara Falls newspaper. Predicting the possibility for the union of red and black power he said, “If the basic idea of the earlier - announced policies of the federal administration are put into effect in Canada, that tipping of the scales will take place. We’ll see open marriage of red and black power. ”

Hyodo

where

discriminates obstruction of the band by some members of Osh-

unite? weken, the six nations indian reserve, from the elected band council is under the defence of Malcolm Montgomery, Q.C., Barrister at Law, Toronto. At one time the self-government of indian reserves was decided by heredity. With the implementation of the indian affairs policy of democracy, Indians had to choose their government by elections as defined by I.A.B. “This appears to be a constitutional milestone and therefore challenges the indian act in its entirety,” said Montgomery. “The process has been speeded by the case in Oshweken. “All Canadians should be equal before the-law, but the indian act discriminates by its very nature.” The indian act is an act of the federal government which purposely sets out to define who qualifies as an “Indian” and how an “Indian” is suppose to live. Montgomery went on, “We say that the’ elected council is irreconcilable with the bill of rights. “The indian act is wrongfully maintained since it is built on a separate treatment of a people, based on colour and race. Of the two bills, the bill of rights is the more recent piece of legislation.

were the principles?

Time and again he reinforced the notion that electoral victory was probable, if the campaign was begun immediately. At the helm he would move “deliberately and massively into the homes of Ontario people” in an all out effort to create a “democratic socialist Ontario. ” It was time not to talk about policy, but to implement it; “time to go for the power in Ontario. ” All of Pitman’s remarks were gauged to elicit feelings of confidence in a party which has only known the role of opposition. Finally Pitman promised them a government which would be profoundly socialist. ’ Lewis’ rowdy fans had remained silent throughout his speech, mute testimony to the power of his presentation; Mel Wabkins nodded and added his applause; but it was not enough, the stage merely being set for the victor and his friends. As Shulman in striking contrast was to Pitman, so Langdon was to Lewis. Steven Langdon, hunched, down to earth, somehow old before his time, moved the audience with his speech. In a methodical, yet emotional manner, reminiscent of his student council style of speaking,

Langdon presented the human side of ,Lewis to the delegates. He spoke of Lewis’s years of dedication and “his real and personal agonizing”. Creating an almost dramatic mood, his voice hesitating over phrases like ‘ordinary working people’; he convinced people of Lewis’ sincerity. Electoral potential, through the medium of public ‘trust’ was the final pitch; the rest was left to the master.

The crowd

was his

Lewis needed no effort to turn the crowdit was already his. In a sense, his exhortations were mere windowdressing. Thin, eyes somewhat sunken, smiling broadly, he began to manipulate his words, the audience responding automatically. Lewis is suave, & seemingly self confident. The phrases fly from .his lips after the fashion of an accomplished parliamentarian, with the added nuance of cold, socialist invective. ‘I am a trifle weary’ he said, with almost aristocratic elocution. His voice impassioned, his manner compelling, he gauged his audiences needs perfectly. No managers-page friday

Desserts are a luxury. Nutritionally, they are not necessary and in most cases they are unhealthy. Most of us can’t really afford desserts, yet we often pay half the cost of our meals to add ‘a bit of something sweet to the end of it. And if the meal is a good one, the dessert is usually just enough to make us feel unpleasantly full. All things considered, we would probably be better off if we omitted desserts entirely. To do so for most of us (for the tivo of

17, Dine & Dance West Indians

“Sugar Canes”

us at least) would be almost more of a sacrifice than becoming vegetarian. So here are four recipes for good desserts. The first three are cheap, easy and not particularly unhealthy. The fourth is somewhat more expensive, not quite as easy (but almost) and will probably kill you if you eat too much of it. It is one of the sweetest desserts we know of, but also one of the best.

Pudding 1 cup flour 3/4 cup white sugar 2 tsp baking powder pinch of salt 1 cup raisins, washed l/2 cup milk

Sauce 1 cup brown sugar 2 cups boiling water 1 tbsp butter or margarine

The Federal Government

Mix together the first six ingredients and pour them into a greased casserole dish (about 1% quart size). The dish should be reasonably deep because the pudding more than doubles in height and when it boils over makes an awfully sticky mess to clean out of the oven. Mix together the sauce ingredients and pour them gently over the mixture inthe casserole dish. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in a preheated 350 oven. To test for doneness, stick a warm, dry knife into the pudding near the center. If it comes out without dough on it, the pudding is done. This pudding is good hot, warm, or cold, with or without milk or cream over it.

0 trc MONTREAL (CUP) - The struggle between government and police officials and the front de liberation quebecois has escalated almost hourly since the FLQ kidnapping of british trade commissioner James Cross last monday morning. On tuesday night, after a day of secret meetings with harried quebec and british officials, the Canadian trudeau government announced its refusal to accept the conditions for the release of Cross, instead, letting loose a full scale sweep of police raids and arrests in Montreal. A combined anti terrorist squad - of the Montreal police, Quebec provincial police and RCMP rounded up 25 FLQ members and other radical and It\evolutionary separatists Wednesday moining. They are being held without charge or bail, though none is suspected of having connections with the kidnapping. On monday, following the abduction, police without warrants made raids on homes and offices of, left wing actvists and separatists in .montreal. The raids ceased tuesday in lieu of less overt police activities but many separatists remain under cloie surveillance. The kidnapping was the first successful attempt by the FLQ in the wake of a series of diplomatic abductions by other liberation groups throughout the world. Two others had apparently been planned for last february (Moshe Golan, Isreali trade commissioner) and in august (american consul Harrison Burgess), but had been broken up by the secret police squad. Quebec justice minister Jerome Choquette initially refused to release the FLQ document containing demands for the release of Cross. He also ordered the confiscation of the as-yet-unopened copies which cqntained as well, the manifesto of the FLQ to the people of Quebec. The copies confiscated were directed to press, radio and television. Excerpts from the document of demands

access to nine of them, but of those he has seen, most are willing to be part of the agreement and be flown to Cuba or Algeria “There is no doubt in my mind that James Cross will be executed if the demands are not met. That is my personal opinion, based on my experience,” said Lemieux. However, the deadline for compliance with the demands was extended to day until noon yesterday, in hopes of establishing further contact with authorities. In the written communication to a Montreal radio station, the FLQ again emphasized the demand for publication of their manifesto. The FLQ was created in the early sixties in response to growing awareness on the part of the quebecois that they were being severly oppressed both culturally and economically by english-speaking Canadians and Americans. The group has developed a political program which includes working with trade unionists, tenants organizations and other groups in Quebec against the english monopoly of power. “The enemies -of our enemies are our friends,” the manifesto reads. Although the FLQ manifesto has been available since august, it has never appeared in any mass media publication. Although clashes between french and english have long been a part of Canadian history, only recently have the french recognized the extent of the erosion of their cultutie and their self determination. English Canadians and americans are the managers of the large industries, banks and universities of quebec. Over three-quarters of the natural resources and industry of Quebec (Canada’s secondmost industrialized province) are american owned.

They must see to it that the representive police forces do not commit the monstrous error of attempting to jeopardize the success of the operation. The political manifesto which ‘the FLQ will address to the ruling authorities will have to appeai in full on the front page of all large newspapers in Quebec. Liberation of 2 1 political prisoners. Wives and children of the political prisoners must be allowed to join them if they so desire. A plane must be made available to the patriot political prisoners for their ‘transport either to Cuba or Algeria. In the course of a meeting attended by the lapalme boys (militant postal truck drivers fired after failure of collective bargaining) and the postmaster general, the latter must promise to reinstate them. A voluntary tax of 500,000 dollars in gold bullion must be put aboard the plane made available to the political prisoners. The name and picture of the informer who led police to the last FL0 cell must be made public.

The demands were accompanied by very specific instructions for the televised release and flight of the prisoners and the gold. The FLQ emphasized that their political objectives be clearly defined to the public by the release to the media of their political program in a one-hour telecast of the released prisoners, and by an invitation to be issued to the public to meet the prisoners and attend their departure. Robert Lemieux, a Fember of the movement for the defense of Quebec polotical prisoners and lawyers for several of the FLQ members has been attempt: ing to see the political prisoners referred to in the demands. He has been refused

A manifesto The following document is the manifesto of the front de liberation &ebecois:Written in may, 1970, it was first discovered among FL0 documents by police authorities last august. Its publication in the english-speaking press has been demanded by the kidnappers of british attache Cross. According to the Canadian university press, this document has never been made public outside Quebec.

The Liberal government has been escalating the fight against this growing left wing separatist element in the province. Sedition laws against the advocation of separation or overthrow of the government have long been used to keep the f rench in their places. In the past year, laws against demonstrations in Montreal were passed to stop the massive protests against new laws which favor the english language for immigrants from Europe to Quebec in the school system. Two months ago, the provincial government passed a “no-knock” law permitting police who “suspect individuals of illegal possession of explosives” to enter and search homes and offices of left wing activists at will. Quebec has also been infamous for locking up prisoners for months at a time without trial or hearing. It is in this context that the FLQ has resorted to the tactics of other liberation movements throughout the world. James Cross is a representative of one of the oldest of colonialist regimes, and that which first began its oppression of french people in canada over two’ centuries ago. The demand statement

I think it is time that engineers should start thinking of collectively WITHDRAWING from the federation. What are we getting for our ten dollars federation fees that we contribute each term? Have you been over to the campus center lately? Are you happy with what you see there? I for one am not! WHAT about the chevron? CHEVRON attacked doctor MATHEWS even before he had a chance to prove himselfie before he even officially took office as president!! AT least give the man a chance! WHAT SAY YOU?? He proved himself before by his demands ($100,000 house) I like 25 and ten cent pubs as well as one dollar and a half band concerts. The citizens of Rome sold their moral responsibility to run things in return for bread and circuses. Perhaps you could consider holding out for more than the ability to have a ten cent pub. Maybe other things are important? - like, are you really happy with how your federation government runs things? I don’t like the chevron and BurkoS Babies making my political decisions for me. APATHY’S THE ANSWER/// I’LL DRINK TO THAT! WHERE’S A PUB? How about this theory: BURKO AND GANG SCREWS ENGINEERS! Most of the dances sponsored by engineers at the grub shack flooped this summer-and they flopped good! Funny coincidence, Burko and his mob were holding one of those ten cent pubs at the same time. And we were charging twenty to fifty cent admission, he was charging ten cents. And how can the federation afford ten cent pubs? You guessed it; we each contribute ten dollars a term ?o the federation. Burko is probably sitting in his campus center palace having a chuckle- “Dum Dum Engineers!” Why can’t we “MAKE A DEAL” with him - one pub dance on campus I only - on the same nite. And how about this one- You can make a fair bit of money on a ten cent pub on a tuesday or thursday night. It wasn’t always the federation that sponsored the pubs either. Has the above author ever run a pub at the campus center? I doubt it. Another thing, the grub shack does not have the atmosphere the campus ten ter pubs has, and any group can book the campus centre. -fell0 w engineerYou seem to imply Burko screwed you because you held a pub which flopped. I think you screwed yourself: a) by holding a pub on the same night as a federation pub. b) by charging twenty-five and fifty cent admission which are not competitive prices. C) by holding any event in the food services!! Also if you/we as engineers think we are getting g rotten deal from the federation for our ten dollar fee, why don’t you/we show a little ambition and at least take an active part in the federation? Why didn’t an engineer get nominated and elected as president or other suitable executive position on the federation? Because they are too damn lazy. Kwitchurbitchin.

The NDP convention last weekend may mark a turning point for Ontario’s democratic socialist party. The delegates to the convention showed a kind of enthusiasm that is often common of founding conventions. It seemed as though the delegates had come with the specific purpose in mind to make the convention a success. The convention perpetuated a sense of confidence through each person in attendance. People felt that for the first time in a long while the NDP was exremely close to power.

Unity

at stake

Unity within the party was at stake. So the only competition that seemed to arise was that between the party as a whole and the other political parties who in the past had been elected to look after the welfare of Ontario and did not. Every person came to the convention with the idea in mind that it was time to do something concrete about the mess they saw Canada in- as a result of the negligence of previous governments. This meant: consolidate the party now, and immediately after the convention prepare the machinery needed to win the next election in Ontario. At the conclusion of the convention, many felt the election was not an end in itself, but that the winning of the election would mark only the beginning of social action for the party and social reform.

Lewis

& Pitman

Stephen Lewis and Walter Pitman, the two major contestants for the leadership of the party, expressed this kind of attitude in all their speeches. The convention responded by adopting the kind of policy that would make it possible for the party to

change the face of Ontario once in power. Inherent in this kind of attitude is the knowledge that a tremendous amount of work must be done by each and every constituency or there will be no chance for the NDP to succeed, and that this work must be carried beyond the election. Lewis and Pitman appealed to one-another’s supporters not to stop working after the election so the party would not become k. static. The policy that was passed at the convention was passed for specific purpose of providing guidelines for action. It was considered that if the party did not pull itself together it would likely lose the next election and then take several years to rise to a similar position in the Ontario political system.

Education

policy

Equal opportunity, in all educational endeavours, and greater diversity of educational opportunities were the key to the NDP’s educational policies. Lewis expressed his willingness “to liberate the school system so that we can produce a new excitement in the learning process, an excitement that will help a new set of human values to flourish.” Pitman saw the education system as a means towards the establishment of social justice. One of the first pieces of legislation that the NDP proposes deals with the boycott on separate school education. The party says that it will give full subsidy to catholic high schools. To date they are only subsidized to grade 10. Thus in an effort to provide equal opportunity to all school children the convention adopted a policy that would give full grants to catholic schools from kindergarten to grade 13. This will be done “on the condition that public and separate school boards join in planning

shared facilities and services to meet the needs of all students in every community.” A further claim has been made to break down the authoritarian structures in the school system that impede people from learning effectively. Education must stop being job oriented and catering to the industrial elite, and must begin to serve the needs of the community at large. Education must become more involved with the world outside the classroom in order to become more meaningful.

policy

This was a broad issue which encompassed several topics including pollution, labor legislation, foreign investment, ecoloi gical control, and more. The resolutions that the convention adopted were fairly general in nature. They provided guidelines for dealing with specific problems that could face the NDP government after the next election in Ontario. One of the questions that arose concerned itself with U.S. investments in Canada. It was pointed out that american capital in Canada was not serving the Canadian public or the candian economy. It was pointed out that . the U.S. investments were raping the Canadian economy and especially the Canadian natural resources. The policy that was adopted called for nationalization of the primary resource industries, for stopping the sell-out of important natural resources to the U.S. and for providing greater incentive for Canadians to invest in their own country while curbing foreign investment that rapes the Canadian economy. The convention took a solid stand against the selling of oil and natural gas to the U.S. They developed a policy on pollution that would provide for stiff fines to industrial plants who do not comply with the new government policy: for companies who still refused to comply they advoca ted na tionaliza tion .

a must

The whole of the Ontario NDP’s programme depends on the next provincial election. There is nothing the NDP will be able to do towards reforming the social system of Ontario if it does not win the 1971 election. Once in power it can adopt the kind of legislation that will ef-fectively begin to break down present day authoritarian structures . . . t.he kind of structures that previous governments have set up and continue to set up for retarding social change. By doing this, it can perform a historical function. Should the implementation of those structures be allowed to develop to its logical conclusion, then the process which establishes more ‘rigid and oppressive structures may become irreversible. Canada could then become totally indistinguishable from the U.S. It must be remembered however, that there is a very distinct ,possibility that once in power, the party may become involved in its own bureaucracy to such an extent that it could turn into another reactionary party. However, if the party does not lose its sense of direction and continues to develop in a progressive manner, then it can begin to develop a new social and political culture for Canada.

Two summers ago when black athletes in the United States searched their souls about participation or boycott of the Olympic Games, few Canadian athletes could empathize with their agony. It was all too far away. But today we face a similar dilemma: how to-react to a program that satisfies our fondest hopes as athletes, but only at the expense-of many others. Under ordinary circumstances, nothing could be sweeter than the Olympics in Montreal. There’d be no travel or acclimatization problems, and the Canadian crowd would be worth buckets of adrenalin. To avoid the hassles and claustrophobia of’ the Olympic Village, I could train in Toronto and simply take the Rapid0 down the evening before my race. And for a marathon runner (as I’ll be in i975) who likes the-hills, Mount Royal is made to order. 2

The tennis version of the Warriors will be in Western this weekend to compete in the western divisional OQAA Championships. Rookie coach Buckley has assembled an eight man team which should give the favoured and defending champions, University of Toronto, a run for the right to meet the eastern winner at Western the next weekend. The team in order of their ranking will consist of Brian Robertson, Terry Keys, Derek Smith, Don Burke and the alternate John Moore. ‘. The competition will be run with the competing universities having their number one ranked players facing each other, and so on down through the team. There will also be doubles play, with Robertson Keys as No. 1 and Smith and Burke as the second team. This competition should provide coach Buckley with a good analysis of his first season’s effort as coach of the tennis team.

The Warriors sailing team came close to upsetting defending National Champion McMaster, at the Ontario Intercollegiate Sailing Championships at Owen Sound this weekend. Waterloo pulled up to second place by sailing consistently in the 13 boat fleet, with one sixth, a fourth, two thirds and a second. The top three Canadian Universities, MacMaster, Waterloo and York qualified to represent Eastern Ontario in the National Championships. Although Waterloo was the only Canadian University represented by just one crew, they easily beat out Western and the Varsity Blues (who placed sixth and ninth respectively).

For the first time United States Universities were invited to compete against the Canadian Universities. Wayne State managed a third place finish, with the University of Michigan, Michigan State, Xavier and Ohio State finishing well back. Waterloo, with a good chance of bettering their last year’s position of second place, proceed to Kingston this weekend to decide the 1970 National Intercollegiate Champion.

Lower Math captured its first trophy when, after a 36 hole championship, Pat Fallon putted past Dave Passmore of Optometry by 1 stroke to win the Paul Knight Trophy. He combined rounds of 78 and 77 for a total of 155 while Dave had a disastrious first round of 84 but a 1 over par second round of 72 for a 156. Over 260 golfers took partin the week long tournament -the largest entry in the history of the program. St. Jeromes sprinted their way . around Seagram’s Track monday night to amass over 120 team points and the Little Olympics Award for Track. St. Pauls were a close second with 97 team points. Bob Sharpe of St. Jeromes almost established a new university record of 6’1” in the high jump, but narrowly missed on his third attempt. However, his 5’11” effort is a new intramural record. Other first place finishers were : 1OOM B. Stevenson (St. Jer) 11.7 24.8 200M D. Gorrie (V2-SE) 400M G. Cole (V-N) 56.2 800M J. Durkin (St. Jer) 2:08.2 1500M D. Camani (St. Pau) 4:36.6 110 Hur. B.

Western and Waterloo dominated the Warrior Invitational Track and Field meet last friday at Seagram Stadium. Seven schools took part. The Warriors won with 96 points, followed by Western with 85 and McMaster a distant third. Dennis McGann led Waterloo winning the 100 metres and the 200 metres while also taking his specialty the long jump. Our Canadian record holder in the 110 metre hurdles George Neeland easily took his event in 15.5 seconds and added a third in the long jump. Kip Sumner won the 800 metres and had a second in the 1500 metres won by teammate Bruce’ Walker. A tenth of a second cost Al Monks the 400 metre sprint. The Warrior distance runners were impressive, as Brian Bisson, Dave Northey and Paul S. Pearson swept the 10,000 metre and Pearson also captured the 5,000 metre run. Noticeably missing from the meet were Western distance ‘men McLaren and Bolter as well as our own ace Paul T. Pearson and triple jumper Bill Lindley. The field events are the weak spot of the team. Aside from McGann’s long jump win and Glen Arbeau’s victory in the javelin, the field points went elsewhere. The recent addition of Russ Gynpp, last year’s O.F.S.S.A. 400 metre champion, to the Warriors will certainly bolster our already impressive track squad.

No one knows better than Lewis how to play to his leanings: “no corporate luminaries here”, each word reverberates with effect; “no branch plant managers here”, even Mel Watkins is titillated. Lewis is a magnificent orator and he knows every soft spot in the party. He forces them to see the grand chances for seizing power and then skilfullyidentifies that potential with his person. His intentions are beyond reproach: he wishes to ‘help the people restore their confidence in themselves, ’ and to give them the “collective capacity to order their own destiny.’ He knows the use of demagory, yet somehow never quite succumbs to its clutch. He stresses the need for democratic socialism, for an autonomous province, for a socialist Canada, tying these to the parties’ destiny & his own.

It seems quite irrelevant to discuss the musical qualities of the record. Let it be noted that Brown has a good, powerful voice, well suited to her material, and the orchestration is adequate. But this isn’t an album “to play as background music for an afternoon barbeque party”. It is a political statement, directed ‘at that segment of society which purchases pop music albums-America’s disaffected, alienated youth. It is not a record that is going to sit too well with the black movement’s sympathetic liberals. This is made abundantly clear in The end of silence, when she sings: “Well then believe it my friend/That this silence will

you’: This is your standard blues shuck, half improvised, shows how little they have practiced, or how much more they need to. No real drive, no real music. Lots of condescension to the audience for whom there is obvious contempt. The Doors have done nothing new since Waiting for the SUPI, which has been said before, but that’s okay too. Now they’re back to simplistic standbys. My resentment is growing for the whole live album thing. It’s so easy to do, and what the Doors need maybe is some hard work, but they’ve fallen out altogether. “I was setting people free/Iwas doing alright/Then you came along with a suitcase and a song/Turned my head around /Now I’m so alone/Just looking for a home/In every face I see/I’m a freedom man.” Words used to be Morrison’s thing, poetry lurked in his voice, anger in his soul, absurdity in his roles. And then ego and superstardom came along and where, the hell is he now? Break on through: A compendium of oldies including the SemC/ose

end/We’ll just have to get guns/ And be men.” As much as Brown may please committed white radicals, the main thrust of the album is directed at the black man in America, for it is he who will have to free himself. Seize the time speaks of the_ dignity and beauty of being black, of the power the b1ac.k man has to throw off the chains of oppression, and of the need to do it NOW. “I used to write about flowers and butterflies and love. That kind of bullshit.” says Brown. “But now since I’ve joined the panthers, my words are hard

and concrete and there’s no abstract, esoteric message. Things are laid out clear, so that people can understand how we feel.” Seize the time is an expensive record ($7.50)) ’ but before you start screaming “rip-off, ripoff” it should be pointed out that the proceeds of the album are going to the panthers free breakfasts for inner-city children program. But don’t buy this record because you want to help starving black kids; that’s a nice liberal token gesture. Buy it for what it has to say, and listen to it. Carefully.

DOORS inary rap which brings the house down, and Morrison plays that like he knows what to do with those people. Morrison the stage manager, the dynamic duo all in one, ego flying, trying to catch his image, the rest of them back there, well, they know who’s in charge, and so does Jimmy who can’t carry the whole thing on his shoulders, but tries. What a shame to have had Light my fire, what a shame that they had Light my fire and it did SO well. Now nothing sounds real, and Morrison’s famed rage is more ,famed than outrageous. There is no rage, and maybe there is but there is no outlet in his music as it is, and he sounds like he is imitating him_self as they all do. There was once a lot of Brecht, and there remains some vestige of that 1920’s Germany sound, but where is the poignancy, where is the hard drive? They are on automatic pilot now. Poontang blues: Or whatever it’s called (I have an unlabelled test pressing). More Morrison screaming, trying to hid the fact that nothing is going on.

In the world of pop music, there has been an increasing number of records released which have exp.ressed deep anxieties, frustrations, and disappointments with the existing social, economic and political structures of capitalist society. However, most of them have stopped short of proclaiming war on America, and have instead settled on being critics of the system without recommending any real action. Now we have a record which goes beyond this, declaring that the time is long past to sit and bitch, that the time has come to take up arms against the oppressor and fight for liberation. Elaine Brown, deputy minister of information for the southern California chapter of the black panther party, has recorded an album of her own songs, called

\ Janis Joplin, one of the great gospel/blues singers of all times, died at the age of 27 Sunday night in her Hollywood apartment. It is said, at least by the police, that her death was caused by an overdose of drugs. They reported finding fresh needle marks on her arm. They said that she had been dead for about two hours before she was found. Janis’ home town was Port Arthur, Texas. There she was a misfit trying college several times and finally becoming a computer programmer. “I read, I painted, I didn’t hate niggers. Man, those ipeople back home hurt me. It makes me happy to know I’m making it and they are back there, plumbers just like they were.” She collected Leadbelly and Bessie Smith records and just some time ago she bought a tombstone for Bessie Smith’s grave. “I’m really proud of that, I remember sitting at home and listening to her records for so long that I’m just so glad I could do it.” Finally in june of 1966 Janis received her break from Port Arthur. A friend, Travis Rivers, asked her to come out to Haight Ashbury and join his band: Big Brother and the Holding Company. So Janis joined the upsurge of San Francisco rock. After her first appearance, at the Angel’s Night at the Avalon Ballroom, Janis remarked, “I could not believe it, all that rhythm and power. I got stoned just feeling it, like it was the best dope in the world. It was so sensual’ so vibrant, loud, crazy. I couldn’t stay still; I had never danced when I sang, but there I was moving and jumping. I couldn’t hear myself, so I sang louder and louder. By the end I was wild . . . ” She rode in big with a rising popularity. Janis hit fame after her appearance in the 1967 Monterey rock festival. ~a!/ and chain became a success. As one critic put it, “The song was wrenched out of some deep dark region of her Texas soul. ”

Joplin

Janis’ following performances took her to the psychedelic supermarket in Boston, the kinetic playground in Chicago, the whisky a-go-go in Los Angeles, and the fillmore east in New York. Then there was the Cheap thri//s album which sold more than one million copies. The southern cqmfort drinker downed quarts at a time before her concerts. Everyone would bring her bottles of her favorite. Janis on stage would send out

her heavy acid sound which ate up everyone. Pellets of sweat would literally fly from her body while everyone freaked out. As one critic put it, “She tore the guts out of songs.” Janis explained her thing as, “I give up everything for music. Music man, that’s what I live for. I’m on the road most of the time. I give up everything for the feeling of being up there performing on stage. I give up any chance of having an old man. i have a beautiful-new home near San Francisco, but I spend most of my life in hotel rooms and planes. I have friends I hardly ever get to see, and all I get is being insulted by waitresses and hotel clerks. Why do I do it? For those three or four hours a

week I spend on stage. For those few hours I feel like I can do anything. I feel like the empire state building. That’s my thing. I sometimes wonder if it’s worth it, but I think it is.” Janis Joplin’s home in Larkspur was decorated in rococo bordello style. She lived with her dog George and her Siamese fighting fish which lived in , a wine bottle. She’d drive aroundin San Francisco’s hills in her butterfly decorated Porsche. Last year after her debut at the Woodstock festival, Janis formed a new band - the FullTilt Boogie Band. Her comment on the new band was, “The old band, the Kosmic Blues Band, was too big and unwieldy, an’d just wasn’t right personnel-wise. This one is. I got the pianist and guitarist from Ronnie Hawkin’s band and that can’t be bad. And another cat played on Jesse Winchester’s album. Albert Grossman, my manager, played me the album and I flew the cat down to try out. Four guys in the new band are Canadian. Only the drummer and I are American . . .Man what a band. But for me, this new band . . . I’ve never been so happy with a group. They rock and roll and ass-shake when I do and when I sing a ballad they’re quiet and sensitive. And they just love to play, any hour of the day, as long as I want. I love ‘em.” Janis’s reason for leaving Big Brother was that “you grow stale on one another. That’s what happened with Big Brother. Everything was ,centering around me and the others weren’t creating, they were stagnating. They’re great now. They’re doing their own thing and are really creating again. ’ ’ Everything was going well for Janis. She was happy with her new ban’d and really into her music. It was all like what she said: “Like man, eighteen months ago I really had the kosmic blues. I had them really bad. But it’s a matter of accepting things. Accept things an’d then life doesn’t seem so bad.”

The loss of Nasser will surely be felt in Egypt if not in the arab world as a whole. He not only was a great leader but also a symbol of arab unity, freedom and socialism. offered many Although Egypt reformers in a variety of fields in the modern arab histoy, Nasall. With ser surpassed them the rise of Nasser, the Arabs began to move more quickly towards self-realiza tion. Nasser for a number of years has *been thought of by many as When he a ,moderate politician. however, he was -came to power, considered to be an extremist, a leftist and a radical in his political outlook. What has actually happened is that Nasser’s followers have so imbibed his political philosophy that they have overshot his position and moved farther left giving him the appearance of a moderate politician. Many were influenced by him and his followers began to spring up all the way from Morocco to Muscat on the Indian Ocean. In the western press you are often reminded that Nasser was three times defeated and humiliated by the Israelis. The Arabs might recognize the 7967 war as a defeat but not the 7948 and 7956 wars. In 7948, Nasser was just an insignificant officer who had very little authority if any at all. It is to blame Nasser an exaggeration for the outcome of the 1948 war between the Arabs and the Zionist forces.

In 1955, a wave of neutralist advocate whose main movement, was Nasser, spread over the eastern part ,of the arab world. They decided to cast off the yoke of western domination and at the same time not move towards the east. The USSR was rather pleased with this move, but the French, were the British A merican s and not. France and Britain were _ determined to get rid of Nasser, at any cost, for various reasons. Maxime Rodinson, in his book The Arabs “Governwrites..

France believed, and rightfully Nasser was helping the so, that algerian revoiutionaries who were violently asserting their right to independence. Also, in january 7956, Guy Mallet’s socialist party gained power in France and was well disposed to Israel’s ‘requestf for arms. The Mapai socialist party was in power in Israel, and this was supposed to be a gesture of socialist solidarity. Britain opposed Nasser because of his advocation of neutralism which was opposed to the pro-british Baghdad pact. By this pact, the British hoped to ma,intain a strong influence in the middle east. This influence, it was felt, could about by brought applying be the pro - british through pressure of Turkey and Iraq. governments The two states were to be strengtheconomically ened militarily and in order to be able to play a strong eastern politics. role in middle King Hussein gave way to popular dismissing Glubb pressure in commander british Pasha, the of the jordan army on march 7, 7956, and was dissuaded from joining the Baghdad pact. At the same time, Nasser was looking for help to build the Aswan dam which was to put an end to Egypt’s economic problems Alone among the western countries, perhaps by recognizing his leadership in the ‘arab world, the United States tried to keep Nasser away from the neutralist influence of maintaining good relations with him. Dulles seemed willing‘ to grant help, and a loan from the world bank was envisaged to finance Nasser’s costly project. But the controls and conditions accompanying this aid were stringent and the Egyptians were suspicious from previous experien ces Britain, France and lsra el were dissuade Dulles trying to from granting help to Egypt, and, as Maxime Rodinson put it, “the american congress jibbed at voting it I’. Nasser was conducting similar with the Soviets for negotiations aid, but informed the Americans that he would prefer the aid to come from them. On july 7 8, 7956, that the Soviets Dulles, learning were unable to help Nasser, announced that the United States was cancelling its offer of aid. Nasser was cornered, but not for very long. On july 26 in Alexandria he announced the nationalization of the Suez Canal. The national_ ization of a big capitalist enterprise seemed aggravating to the socialist french party and israeli socialist Mapai which exchanged gestures of solidarity and decid- ed to fight.

The

1956

wur

On October 23, 7956, Israel, France and Britain signed the Secret Sevres ,agreement to attack Egypt. on the 29th, lsrael attacked Egypt, the next day Britain and France entered the battle masquerading as peacekeeping forces. The game was soon made known to the rest of the world and the results were quite the opposite to what was anticipated by the three aggressors. Nasser was to fall; instead, he came out a ‘stature of a nearlegacy figure at the sumit of his popularity ‘. From 7 952- 7 956 Nasser achieved three important and new things.. he attacked the Baghdad pact, attended the Bandung conference from which he had Israel excluded, and was able to purchase arms from the eastern bloc. He proved to the third world that Israel was a western enclave in the arab world, and the western bloc would always resort to force in order to achieve its own ends.

Syria fearing the 7958, spreading of communism and its threw herself in the take over, arms of Nasser He was the sole of Syria, at that time. saviour The United Arab Republic was formed and Nasser became the president of both states. As was the case in Egypt, he was effective in suppressing communism in Syria . The same saw another achievement of Nasser. It was the iraqi revolution of july 74, Nasser succeeded in getting rid of the probritish hashemite monarchy. The unity between hashemite iraq and hashemite Jordan, which was formed two months earlier, was short lived. Its aims clearly were anti- Nasserism right wing and pro -british solidarity in . the area. But Nasser failed in recognizing the real strong and effective military leadership which was behind the coup. From the rise of Kassim of Iraq, who was a left wing fanatic, ‘on, Nasser began to appear as ‘Then there was the a moderate. separation of Syria and the end of the unity. It came as a shock to Nasser. The separatists did not expend much energy in a chie’ving their during the four years goal. Nasser, of unity, failed to coordinate the consolidate two economies and the eg yp tian and Syrian forces. Many factors worked against him. The Syrians were always noted tendenfor their mercan tillis tic cies while Egyptians were mostly agrarians. The economies of both countries were very weak, the geographical settings of the states were different, and two In

separated by Zionist Israel and reactionary Jordan, both hostile to Nasser. It did not take long before Nasser was able to engineer different coups against the isolationist yemeni monarchy, fanatic Kassim in Iraq and the separatists in Syria. In Yemen, Nasser had to train the republican forces, supply them with arms and defend them against the saudi arabian *manarchy to the north. His forces were fragmented.

The june

war

Then came the 7967 war. Nasser was accused by the extremists in Syria and by Jordan that he was mouthing off, while he was protected by the united nations forces in the Sinai desert. The pressure was great and Nasser was forced to let the united nations emergency force out of his territory. It should be noted that Israel refused to have them stationed on her side of the cease fire line in 7956. Nasser did not want war in 7 967. He was definitely aware that he would lose even if he were militarily stronger. The United States warned Nasser that they would intervene and defend Israel if Egypt was to start the war. On may 23, 7967 Nasser in his speech announced the closure of the straits of Tiran at the to the Gulf of Aqaba, en trance which would revert it to its position as of 7956. This meant the closure of israeli shipping to AfriAsia, from the Port of ca and Ela th.

far, the Pales tinian Thus were kept in the backpeople ground, although they played, and still do, an important role in the middle eastern politics. Nasser always repeated that the to their return of the refugees homeland was one condition he would insist upon in any peace agreement with Ssra el. lsra el considered this stand as a sign of aggression and insisted that Nasser was obstructing peace in the middle east. They have also insisted that if Nasser went, there would not be any problems in the missle east. Well, now Nasser is gone!! It would be foolish to think that peace will come about if the palestinians are not allo wed to return to their homes and compensated for what they have lost. Nasser was only voicing the palestrnian demands, as well as the arab world’s demands, and they recognized his leadership. Also, world Zionism, expressing its stand through Israel, insisted that direct talks were the only way to settle the middle east problem. Nasser believed that direct peace talks with Israel meant the recognition of Zionist sovereignty over Palestine which would un-

dermine the palesttnian refugees interests. Recently, Nasser and Hussein agreed to conduct indirect peace talks with lsra el. Peace was inconceivable un tit Nasser’s ‘death and will so remain unless Israel will change its L attitude to wards the palestinian people.

Who

is against

peace?

lf Nasser wanted to prove to those who support Israel that it was not a peace loving state, then he has succeeded, for Israel was the one to withdraw from the peace talks on unfounded grounds. The that the EgypIsraelis claimed tians used the cease fire agreement to reinforce their defensive position along the canal. This has been denied by Egypt and supportthe ed by proof presented to United States. Later, it was disisra eli claims covered that the were a way by which the United States would justify its supply of fifteen phantom jets to Israel. Many people recognize the fact that peace in an undesirable state of affairs for Israel, for it would bring out the differences between her peoples who vary in so far as languages and ethnic origins and ‘religious sects. Also, peace would not give a chance to world Zionism to achieve its ultimate goal of Israel - from the Nile to the Euphrates.

The peace talks were considered the PLO (Palestine LiberabY tion Organization) a sellout of the Palestinian cause. Just before the 9967 war, the Palestinians considered it their responsibility to try and solve their problem and the defeat of Syria, Jordan and Egypt was a sound proof that they - the Palestinians - should not leave it for the other arab countries. Nasser was the only man in the middle east who could talk peace with lsra el. His decision split the arab solt’darity, if in fact such solidarity existed. But, as pointed above, it is against israel’s interest to have peace in the rniddle east. Nasser, being a moderate, proved that he did not want war. This move on the part of Nasser reduced his popularity to its lo west level among the Palestinians. A lgeria , PLO, Syria and Iraq opposed his decision to ’ enter into negotiations for peace. Recently, the the arabic newspapers reduced quo ta tions from Nasser’s numerous speeches, whereas such quotations previously had been verycommon.

the only man, to negotiate peace and at the same by Israel for being

who wtth time the

obstacle confronting peace, is gone, the Israelis will blame Russia for the middle east problem. Most observers now fear the outcome of the struggle for power in Egypt. They believe that the vacuum left by Nasser’s death might trigger a new war in the area. To the Arabs, this is not the case. It does not matter who replaces him. No man, they know, can ever fill his shoes. What is important is that *the fires of freedom, anti-imperialism, self realiza Con, unity and socialism, lit by Nasser will continue for years to come. The young people who read Nasser almost daily and were influenced by him will continue his struggle. Two of those who were influenced by him and just might continue what Nasser had started are Numeiry of Sudan and Kaddafy of Libya. It should be noted that Nasser was never the obstacle confronting peace, nor he was ever able to offer peace. The only peo.ple who can solve the problem or continue the trouble are the deprived Palestinians and those who presently live ,in their homes and on their land - the Israelis. If Nasser was the instigator of the trouble in the middle east, he could only be blamed for the arab revival in the two post- war decades.

At risk of boring your readers, may I reply to your editorial comments on the Chevron’s recent publication of a cartoon sponsored by the Palestine National Liberation Movement? Your claim that “the cartoon in question was political and not racist” and was “in tended only to point out the plight of the Palestinian people, who have been consistently neglected by both Israel and the arab states”strikes me as disingenuous, to say the least. To take your last point first. The cartoon contained no allusion whatever to any arab state, and was directed solely against Israel. Next, it depicted the crucifixion of a Christ-like figure upon a star of David, together with a caption reading “Another Martyr? ” Thus, the method used “to point out the plight of the Palestinian people” was that of invoking time-worn prejudices against the Jewish people. In this case, the innuendo has been condemned by all reasonable men (most recently and most explicitly by Pope John XXI-II) as a cheap and repulsive slander, and (as I pointed out in my last letter) is normally confined to the lunatic Right. It can re-emerge from the gutter only when there are “newspapers such as yours prepared to dredge it up and give it publicity. However, as long as there are such newspapers, and as long as there are people who deliberately condone the use of such tactics, the state of Israel need look no further afield to find justification for its continued existence. A. LENTIN, history department Student for our

outlines reasons representation

Often times, it seems that student government at any level is in fact a farce. Sure, the faculty will give us a few small concessions, but do these concessions have any va/ue I feel that to the faculty, our attempts to function on a responsible level, is in fact nothing less than a joke. In our own department (History), this is the attitude that is taken. Having talked to previous members of the History society, I have learned that to attempt to fight for representation on the faculty meetings is a waste of my time and the society’s. I have heard statements such as “we have been trying for two years to get some kind of representation for the student in the History department and all that we have been getting is a slap in the face”. Of course, now the faculty has discovered, as if it was an undermining plot, that this endeavor (to get student representation) is being championed again this year, only this time, in the form of a petition, instead of asking outright. Of course, this came to the at-

Subscribe

tention of the chairman of the department also. As a result, he happened to be passing by the History Society office, and decided to stop in for a chat. He brought it to my attention that we in fact had access to the faculty, if we had problems. I asked if there was at present student representation on the faculty meetings. To this question he had to answer, NO. I told him that that was not the principle for which we were fighting, and it certainly is not. Notice the small right that we are allowed, if you will. The right to approach the faculty, if we have a problem: Great!! A few years ago, us the students, fought to get representation on the university Senate. We felt that the University was being administered by businessmen for business only. Since many of the decisions concern the students, we should be allowed to find out what is being done in that particular level of administration, and have some voice in decision making. I’% sure that if the students had any power at all, they would definately be against the decision to purchase a 100,000 dollar home for the president (of the university). Especially since there is such a need for student housing. I:f I read correctly, almost 4,000 studeqfn ,yrere turned away from residefice -this year, -due to lack of student rooms. Of course, we do not have this kind of power. But maybe someday, student representation will be pwerful enough to act on decisions of this nature. Whether or not student representation will develop into such an effective tool is anyone’s speculation. The point is that student representation must be an effective tool on the individual department level first. If student representation becomes more than a joke in the individual departments, then representation on higher levels will just be one step further. As of now, we are only taking the first step. I can not urge you enough to support this petition. It seems to be our only legal and democratic tool, outside of a plebicite. The faculty has hinted that all my endeavors will be a failure, as the endeavors of others have been before me. I certainly hope not. I have much faith in the integrity of the student body of Waterloo. I feel that most are genuinely interested in having student representation. It is one thing worthwhile fighting for. As I have said before, student representation on all legels of university administration is important if we the students are to become an intregal part of university life. After all, we do not exist for the university, the university exists for us, and so it must be us, the student, who must make it work. The only way that I can see this done is to become such a necessary part of the university that it would become non-functional if we were eliminated, and student representation is the

to the Last Post

road to becoming this intregal part of university life. After all, why should we be told what to do and what not to do. We should have some means of expressing our opposition to this almighty faculty, which is directing our academic life. We have our views, and they have theirs, but as it stands, the cards seem to be stacked in their favour. So lets get off our cans and do something to show them that we have minds, that we can handle responsibility, that we are not apathetic, that we are not joking when we demand student representation. LOU MANGONE president history society A// we equal,

want is to be not dominant

Rod McCormick’s letter to feedback seem to have been written by a sulking child who has had his fingers slapped and now intends to extract-a petty revenge. But then, not knowing Mr. McCormick, I may have misjudged him. I am one of the women “over 30” who was supposedly either alienated by, or apathetic to, the Womens’ ‘Liberation group here on campus. Strangely enough, I am happily attending meetings and working on the publicity committee. Mr. McCormack suggested in his letter that we woman would be “wise” to allow compeier1b men to fill some of the decision making positions in our organization. While such a move might seem expedient it would certainly not be wise. Women must learn to organize, make decisions, and fill administrative positions for themselves. We need the practical experience offered by the opportunity to organize and run the Womens Lib. groups. Mr. McCormack calls us the “womens’ dominance society”. Unfortunately, he has failed to grasp one of the basic precepts of Womens’ Lib. We want to be equal, not dominant. Mr. McCormick has expressed his desire to help the cause of Womens’ Liberation. If he really wants to help us, he’ll be willing to “do simple or potentially dangerous jobs: ie. on the picket lines, handing out leaflets etc.” If he merely wants to gain power and some publicity, he’ll keep insisting that men be given top positions in our organization.

The comments attributed to me in the campus question of October 2 are very amusing if one can make sense of them, but, unfortunately, don’t believe that is what was said in the interview. On the issue of women’s liberation, I stated that males are considered (not “should be”) superior because they provide order in society, not because ‘ ‘ women don’t possess the strength to provide this”, as was published. Also, the second statement referred only to the leadership of this movement, which is quite different from women in general. DAVID CRONIN psych 4

Will you play with me?” 1) Sorry, Tim. I’ve got to study tonight. Play isn’t relevant. 2) What do you mean, play. The world is in one hell of a mess and you just want to play. That’s what got us in this mess, you know. People like you. Play isn’t relevant. Not now. 3) What’s the object of the game? What’s the purpose? Physical fitness? Developing mental skill and adeptness? What’s the purpose? There must be a purpose . . . otherwise it isn’t relevant! “Hey. . . look.

Somewhere in this paper you will read a story about a hassle in village 2. It is still uncertain what exactly the outcome of the situation will be, but whatever it .is, the whole situation has become rather sordid and messy. What we had planned to say however, complete with nasty diatribes of all concerned has been shelved. Instead we will simply say that what is going on in village 2 is only an example where one, possibly two careers are perceived as being at stake. Given the society we live in, what could be more natural than.wanting to’ keep a job? It only remains a shame, though, that openness (and its consequent trust in students) has been sacrificed because of perceived political threats. And that astuteness (including its inherent distinction between what can and what c!?ould be done) has been sacrificed in a shoddy game of student power. One further observation: the consultants’ report working on the university’s administration has recommended replacing the position of’residence warden with that of director of student services. The former position has seemed to afford a reasonable contact with students in the past (irrespective of charges that such contact has only been superficial), while the latter would undoubtedly become an administrative post solely for the purpose of mana’ging (as opposed to facilitating) student residence life. Any hope students have of achieving greater voice in organizing village residences would be squelched by the entrenchment of a manager. Hopefully both students and the warden have learned something by the events of the past ten days.
