The seething unrest among varsity football players which has been in evidence for the past couple of years finally came to a head monday night in a confrontation between athletic director Carl Totzke and members of the three major varsity teams. Totzke called the meeting to hear the complaints of the athletes after the entire hockey team athletic boycotted the recent banquet and presented a list of grievances to Totzke thereafter. Totzke admitted being out of touch with the athletes and recognized that such a meeting should perhaps have been called earlier in the year. Most of the meeting-was devoted to a variety of subsidiary beefs but the overriding issue of the evening was the status of Wally Delahey as head football coach.
The football players were there his to demand resignation. Totzke’s lengthy preamble about general financing of- an athletic program and budget considerations was abruptly cut short when Don Manahan, supported by George Nogradi and Warren Hull, forced him to come to the point.
See bullseye - page 23 Warren Hull accused Totzke of retaining Delahey as coach strictly because of his personal friendship with the man. He claimed that a clique at the top of the athletic department was controlling the hiring of coaches to the detriment of athletes and indeed the student body as a whole. Athletic
clique
*
Later in the meeting Totzke admitted there was some kind of clique of friendship in the department but denied that it affected his judge>ment. George Nogradi also spoke out
in criticism of the coaching qualification% of Wally Delahey. He cited the football record for the past three years (515-l) and a number of blunders in game strategy which bear witness to Delahey’s incompetence and expressed a desire to have him removed as coach. Tot-zke responded with the rather fatherly question : “When did you first develop this animosity towards your head coach, ’ ’ but would not relent in his support for his football coach. The discontent of the players apparently went deeper than just losing, although the win-or-lose ethic seemed to be quite important to many of them. George Saunders spoke for several team members when _he said: I “Winning is fun to start with. I’ll guarantee that the reason the ball players quit this year is because they weren’t having any fun. We’re together six days a week. We have to have fun during that time and if there’s a coaching conflict we can’t.”
Secretary of state Gerard Pelletier spoke to university newspaper editors last friday about the federal governments plan Coaching conflicts The tremendous coaching conto provide employment for post-secondary students this sumflicts which Delahey has been mer. See story on page 22. working under for the past couple r
of years is, the team feels, the reason for the tensions which the players are forced to play under. But they feel that these conflicts are present because of his incompetence and that they cannot be used as an excuse for it. It is this incompetence in coaching that irks them. At any rate they are disturbed enough to have prepared a petition asking for the removal of Delahey as head coach. This petition has been signed by a large majority of the players and is to be presented to Totzke and Burt Matthews in the next few days. The hockey team’s annoyances centered around a lack of communication k throughout the year between the team, the coach and the department. -See Jocks,

Radio Waterloo was temporarily placed in receivership by the federation at a regular council meeting monday night. An apparant ultimatum by radio Waterloo called for either the required 24,000 dollar allotment or liquidation. At the lengthy meeting which covered important budgetary topics the council responded to the ultimatum by liquidating radio Waterloo. This decision followed a heated discussion about the relative merits of radio Waterloo and other media on campus. An executive meeting pursuant to the radio waterloo question was -held tuesday afternoon at which compromise positions were discussed. As this paper was going to press further meetings were being held and it is ‘generally felt that an alternative budget figure will be reached and radio Waterloo will continue in much the same manner as it did this year. Two reasons
The liquidation procedures were taken against radio Waterloo for two basic reasons. Carl Sulliman in an interview wednesday afternoon stated the main reason was that radio Waterloo had not presented any sort of .budgetary request to the executive and thus they could not be included into any .allotmentsfor the coming year. -
See council story Y page 3 Sulliman said that there are certain procedures to be followed as far as doing anything within the federation in order to insure that students in general did not get ripped off by individual groups. Radio Waterloo simply had not followed those procedures. There was a second reason which was a little less straightforward. Certain members of the executive and council did not feel that a, sufficient number of students were involved in radio waterloo and that the station was not reaching a large enough audience to warrant the sum of money they had requested. While not actually presenting a request, radio Waterloo made it known that they would require approximately 24,000 dollars this year in order to expand to ‘carrier current’. Carrier current is a means of transmitting a radio signal through the electric current lines rather than through cable or airwaves. This service would be supplied to all the residences of the university, reaching a possible 45 percent of the student population. Also included in the increase were more salaried positions for radio Waterloo staff. Polarization
The request by radio waterloo soon became a polarized issue due to its very nature; either full payment of the request or liquida: . tion. The discussion at the council meeting monday night soon became very heated. After debating and bickering for hours Rick Page summarized the situation. “F’or the last three goddamn years, radio Waterloo has been coming and saying first of allwe’ve only been broadcasting to the campus ce&er and oncampus buildings and we’ve got to do something better because we don’t reach enough people. ..so they went on -cable. Now they’re ask-ing- for carrier current, next it’ll be broad-
,
casting over the air on a band. Like it can go unlimited. Like it can just keep continuing on this way by saying there are not enough people listening. Like I’m just pissed off with that thing continuing on. Either radio Waterloo slows down and starts building up a core of people.and starts talking about getting these people involved and talks about teaching these people and stops going into all this bullshit about expanding every year and jumping up 1,000 dollars and the only reply I’m giving to radio Waterloo is they gave _-_ me an alternative. Like Jerry Cook came in and gave me an , alternative, “liquidate us or give us the money. ” Liquidate them! ” The main complaint against radio waterloo was they were not involving enough people to warrant the amount of money that they received. Too much of the production work was being done by only a few individuals. The station was criticized for not going beyond being an expensive jutebox to actually educating the inter ested students who wish to be- ’ come involved in that field. Tuesday morning, following the decision taken the night before, the locks were changed by the federation. Sulliman explained this was standard practise in happenings of this sort and had to be done to prevent any theft or misplacement of radio equipment which basically belongs to every student. Compromise
coming
_.-
1 .
A compromise seems imminent though. Meetings were held tues_ day, thursday and at the executive meeting this afternoon. A new proposal has been made by radio Waterloo. The sum involved is approximately 6,750 dollars, which would cover the basic maintenance and coverage costs. Salaries, expansion and carrier current have been dropped. Also part . of the new radio Waterloo approach is the establishment of a committee to investigate the financial operation of the station and the possibility of dividing the programming responsibility among interested groups on and off campus such as the federation societies, arts 100, Lutheran and community groups. This ’ compromise proposal has resulted in an ‘easing of tensions, and an atmosphere of cooperation has been established + between the federation and radio Waterloo. John Dale, chairman of the board of communications does not feel that the future of radio waterloo is as dull as the recent events might indicate. With the establishment of the investigatory committee, he hopes three changes might be brought s about which he feels will change the picture at the station. If the station can -be situated on campus closer to students than the present location of the Bauer warehouse, north of Columbia, If a secretary can be hired for the station then - this will hopefully things will become more co-ordinated and effective. Also as an offshoot of the secretary is that the manager who is presently employed by the station will be able to devote more time to getting students on campus involved in the station radio Waterloo and in educating them in the dimensions of broadcasting.

With student employment getting harder to find, something job new - a student summer centre - will open april 14 at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, queen and weber Streets, Kitchener. The centre is supported by Waterloo Lutheran University, the University of Waterloo, Conestoga College, Canada Manpower Centre and other community organizations. It will be staffed by three students - one each from the universities and the college. Horace Brad’en, director of student aid and placement at wlu, said the centre plans to provide efficient assistance for em-
ployers seeking summer help and for students wanting summer employment. It is hoped that the centre will also generate jobs. “The centre will be the one place in the twin cities wheie students will register for summer employment,” Braden said. “In addition. to university and college s#tudents, high school students yill be urged to register there also. ” “We hope, that citizens, businesses, government offices, etc will do everything they can to help provide employment for students this summer, since “for many students, it is vital that they find summer work if they are to continue their education. ”

Council-&cusses by Jim Butler chevron staff
A financial clash between the federation and radio Waterloo resulted from the first reading of the 1971-1972 budget; This produced a very lengthy and heated debate at council monday night. Council also discussed the chevron, proposals for working committees and various conditions, on campus. Rick Page and Carl Sulliman presented a motion that Alex Smith be appointed chevron editor-in-chief. It carried. Page and Paul Rice commended Smith for the excellent job he has done as chevron editor-in-chief in the past year. Also, a re-allocation of funds was granted to the chevron . A proposal to establish six working committees to study student affairs on and off campus was presented. Committees discussed included: @A standing committee on ten-ant-landlord relations, chaired by Paul Dube which is proposed to examine residential buildings and housing facilities in KitchenerWaterloo. *A residence affairs committee to work in coordination with on. campus residence councils to sol-
ve internal problems upon request of those councils or the federation of students council. Chairman is Bud McDermott. @A study committee on graduate affairs to exam-ine all aspects of graduate student relations at the university of Waterloo. Chaired by Peter Warrian. @A federation of students service committee to study the establishment of: a food coop and a photographic service. Larry Hundt is the chairman of the committee. aA federation-societies liason committee chaired by Rena Armstrong to establish a communication between the federation of stu--dents and the societies, and to report to council and take directives from council. aA university study committee to examine university departments on a structural and economic basis. The chairman of this committee is Paul Rice. Rick Page asked the members of council to consider which committees they wished to sit on and next week the committees would be formed by council. ’ An offer was made for council to send a representative as‘ a delegate to Waterloo Lutheran university’s -council and a represen-
Jocks,goto senate The jocks around Uniwat are getting status conscious as indicated by their request to Senate for a new degree. Senate dutifully complied during their last meeting and conferred the B .Sc. on Kinesiology graduates, and the B.A. on Recreation graduates. The Jocks request that the BPER ‘be withdrawn was some- what premature, since this honourable degree has not yet been
awarded at this university. . Their argument that by sharing the BSc. and B.A. they will cut down on the proliferation of degrees around Uniwat and thereby lessen confusion was dealt with neatly- by professor Ralph Staal from Math, who stated. “To have one name for many different things brings about confusion, but to have many names for many different things avoids confusion.”
new committee’s tative from W-aterloo Lutheran be accepted here. The motion carried. A representative from the school of optometry indicated a desire that the student society of optometry be recognized as a federation society. The issue will be discussed in the immediate future with the science society. A representative from the school

An alternative motion that an investigation should be undertaken into the direction and character of the research that should be encouraged at the university, and that which should be disallowed, such as war research, and secondly to consider a referendum on research policy. The motion carried.

Lectures Two guest lecturers highlighted this weeks Canadian studies lecture series. On monday night Dr. J. Reaney western Ontario university english prof, delivered a speech on the ‘Canadian immagination’ and on Iwednesday D.V., Smiley, political economy prof at U of T talked on ‘Pierre Elliot Trudeau’s political thought’. liot Trudeau’s political thought’. Dr. Reaney, once described as the “enfant terrible” of Canadian litterature, is today one of the leading literary figures in canadian poetry and has created some outstanding Canadian drama. His message was that the development of a Canadian immagination has to come from each individual Canadian. Each one 03 us doing our own thing, would bloom into a great Canadian cultural awakening. “We must first of all learn to -se, project and expand our mind and immagination to the world a\ round us, and then can re-learn to communicate with the sur; rounding environment. ” Reaney went on to state that the creation of a cultural happening did not necessarily have to have strong nationalistic flavors, but it is the duty and right of can-

adians to create a culture which would be uniquely Canadian. Can-’ adians have the duty to create a culture which will express canadian folklore, its peculiar environment, and way of life. He ended his lecture by presenting a series of slides with quotes from Canadian poetry. This audio-visual presentation portrayed a Canadian outlook on life very effectively. He admitted that this experiment was ‘a personal venture, but the point was well made as the whole class could relate to a uniquely Canadian interpretation of the environment. Although JReaney himself tends to relate to a pastoral outlook of life, he is strongly aware of urbanization and of the many new peculiar problems of our age. On Wednesday night, Smiley talked about Trudeau’s political thought. He began by stating that during the 60’s studies of Canadian life were downgraded and that today’s involvement with Canada is a very healthy sign. Speaking about Trudeau he said “It is unusual, to have a PM with a political thought worth discussing. ’ ’ “Trudeau is certainly a unique Canadian politician, a political philosopher, who is trying to im’ _
plement that philosophy in the running of government. ” “Trudeau was at the avantguarde of democracy, in a province where democracy was dead. Searching for a solution to Quebec’s pro_blems Trudeau became a convert to ‘liberal democracy’ and at the base of his beliefs rested the-free individual with his right to make his own free choices. ’ ’ Smiley sees Trudeau’s political philosophy expressing three fundamental ideas, multi-national state federalism, enhancement of french-canadian political power in Canadian life and denying Quebec “specialstatus”. Smiley stated that it is impossible to evaluate how long Trudeau will remain in power.” The man” he said” is a great politician, he seems to know what the Canadian public now wants. He has a great personal charisma; he has so far been able to be on top of all events and his actions have, in large, been accepted quite favorable by the Canadian voter:” Only time will tell if Trudeaumania was just a mirage or the real political aspirations of the Canadian public.

Anthony Kirby, public relations officer for the Canadian inland waters center spoke to students and faculty last thursday night. The power of this organization is very limited. They do not have any legal powers with which to brand a company a polluter. They are a group of scientists who are accumulating a vast mass of facts concerning the fresh water bodies in Canada, especially the Great Lakes. To stop the pollution in Lake Erie on the Canadian side is useless Kirby explained because Ontario only adds lo-20% of the pal: lutants. The ineffective international agreements between the govemments of Ontario and Quebec, and the <American states is one reason why the Great Lakes continue to get worse. For a country that has the most fresh water in the world, Canada has a discouragingly small amount of research. Many people are upset about this ignoring of ,our natural resources. Therefore, to mollify the academics, the government set up a research station at Burlington. Part of the station is a floating laboratory which takes samples throughout the great lakes. The information collected is published as reports of the international joint commission. “One reason for a research station is that one cannot cope with the problem of pollution unless one understands the environment,” Kirby said. Kirby set out to make people aware that fresh water is a natural resource which should be stud. friday

ied. Next, as public relations man, he advertized the center as the government’s grand solution “to the future of the great lakes. He tried to impress people that they were just beginning to solve the problem, and that the solution was in sight, but closer examination seems to indicate that their sight is getting muddier. When questioned about the 35 million dollar suit filed by the government against Dow Chemicals Kirby refused to comment. He may have realized that the government cannot win and will have to back down. After disregarding rules against pollution for years, the government may find it difficult to suddenly, clamp down with a 35 million dollar law suit. Today, pollution probe and the energy and resources management iommission, conservation branch, are meeting to discuss the Elora Gorge and to determine whether public fervor over the flooding of the Gorge has died down sufficiently to let them go ahead. Pollution Probe has voiced opposition to the .plan several times in the past. This sunday the National Arts Center Orchestra will perform in the main gym of the physed building. The concert, presented by creative arts, includes pieces by Hayden and Mozart. Begins at 8 pm. General admission 2.56, students 1.50.

The men make a basic hourly wage of 2.54 dollars. For some of the workers with large families their take home pay was considerably lower than what they originally received on welfare. At least one such instance has come to public view when featured recently in one of the large Toronto dailies. However, this situation is by no means unique to larger urban centers. The section of the “labor market” which could benefit the most from such seasonal employment is that of the young unemployed male who could benefit considerably by receiving an income. ’ And yet, this large group of unemployed men is almost totally excluded from the opportunity of employment by welfare and unemployment officials who give priority to’married men. For the most part, the officials of the department of highways who are supervising the winter works project, have responded to the troublesome setup

“One boss told us to leave, the cut-up trees on the ground because the farmer wanted them to rot. Ten minutes later, we ‘were told by another boss to stack them because we didn’t look busy enough. “He told us that no discussion of orders was permitted and to obey the-last order we got. The first boss gave us shit for not obeying his orders. We protested and consequently were fired.” That is the way a former employee of the Ontario elm tree‘ removal winter -works program related his experience while working on highway 401 near the Campbellville road. The provincially-financed elm tree removal project has been hiring people in all areas along the 401 from Kingston to Windsor. Whatever the original plans of the project may have been, it has been encountering considerable difficulty since it first began in february of this year. Many of the men who were hired are no longer happy with both the work and the pay. According to some of the employees, unsafe working conditions are common. In addition many of the men cannot afford to purchase the clothing needed to work in the cold weather. Many of the -men feel they were forced into accepting their jobs, since some had been given the jobs by welfare officials. Thus, for some it was a case of either working or starving since there would be little chance of them getting back on welfare if they were to quit. One worker likened his position to one of “slave labor.” ~

They felt that the teams should be able to come together with their coaches to determine their own personal budgets so that misunderstandings in their situation could be avoided.

by coping with the bad’habits of many of the employees. The working rapport at the Campbellville road section differs considerably from that of other job sites. The crew at the Campbellville site is composed of 35 men who hail from the K-W area. Included in this group originally, were about ten single men from Kitchener and Waterloo-proper. The single men and a few young married men who worked together at the beginning of the project became identified as ‘ ‘the hippies. ’ ’
“Big
Bill”
saga
According to one of the young workers, the trouble which arose on the project came. about three weeks after the project began when a new timekeeper was placed in charge of the men. “From the very beginning, “Big Bill”, (the timekeeper), went out of his way to hassle us. He would walk by another bunch\ of men who were sitting around having a coffee and then would threaten ‘to ‘send us down the road,’ (fire us), for sitting around and having a coffee,” one workI . er said. _ Another member of the crew told of how the timekeeper would lurk behind a tree until he put down his chain-saw to light up a cigarette. Other members of the work crew who were not 1 members of this “group” confirmed the descriptions as accurate. Eventually, four members of the younger workers . were fired. Shortly after their dismissal a petition was circulated which contained complaints about the intimidations and continued threats of the timekeeper. The petition also criticised the safety conditions on the job site and asked for a clarification of the washroom issue in which men were threatened with losing their jobs for having to occasionally heed the call of mother nature. After the petition was signed by 23 members of ’ the work crew, it was handed in to John Cleaver, the job supervisor. After calling a meeting, Cleaver talked to all the men concerned. However, all of those interviewed agreed that Cleaver said absolutely nothing during his 20 minute monologue. Earlier this week, the remainder of the original select group of younger workers, were fired. In justifying the decision to fire the remaining men, Cleaver said, “I should have run the whole crew off the job when the petition was first handed in.”

The hockey warriors complained of poor equipment management,, a budget which ended up costing them money, badly arranged schedules and lack of advertising for the home games. Even the radicals entered the picture as hockey coach Bob McKillop is paraphrased as saying that while he put up many posters before each game they, especially the ones in the arts complex, were ripped down by radical students. Ken Laidlaw;the hockey team’s
own radical-is reputedly denying this-alleged crime. In comparison with the other teams criticisms of the jock department the basketball team’s were mild. Communication was again the cry as they put forth-.a plea for better liasion between the tote room managers and the team so that the next time they had ripped or shrunken jock -straps they could get new ones without too much hassling. The meeting ended with the hockey team requesting all their awards and trophies in order to stage their own athletic banquet at some later date.

plan economic development, means that the CCF shares a portion of the blame for the current economic mess that is the potash industry. I
Half world’s reserves . By 1950 it was known that nearly half of the world’s potash reserves lay under the Saskatchewan prairie, and that a corn-bination of growing U.S. demand for fertilizer and dwindling U.S. reserves warranted the development of a large Canadian potash industry. The CCF cabinet considered, and rejetted, the idea of public development of potash. It justified its decision on the grounds that its primary goal was to achieve a model “welfare state,” not to become a risk-taking entrepreneur. ’ Admittedly welfare reforms such as medicare were important and significant, but the failure of the CCF to pursue its fundamental socialist responsibility. to
The U.S. potash cartel tried to keep control of Saskatchewan potash development by developing a couple of massive mines, that they hoped would discourage outside competition. Unfortunately, the market for potash was so strong in the mid-1960’s that-belatedly-three Canadian companies outside the cartel also built mines. American farm co-operatives, which have a great deal of market power at the retail end of the fertilizer business, used the occasion to break the cartel by diverting huge contracts to the Canadian mines. Prices fell drastically; Saskatchewan output rose rapidly and U.S. output began to decline. The six U.S. potash companies without Saskatchewan mines brought political pressure (the threat of a ,punitive tariff) against th.e U.S., Canadian and european corporations with Saskatchewan mines to restore oligopoly prices and limit Saskatchewan output. Subject to the threat of a tariff the four binational corporations with U.S. and Saskatchewan mines co-operated with the six domestic U.S. firms to recreate an effective cartel. As medium-sized firms they preferred to work through the governments of Saskatchewan and New Mexico, the potash-producing areas, rather than Washington or Ottawa, and Ottawa never considered intervention to protect Canadian interests. -- In October of 1969 Premier Thatcher of Saskatchewan and Governor Cargo of New Mexico scurried between one another’s capitals and jointly announced creation of the Potash conservation board under the aegis of the Saskatchewan government. The board set a ‘floor price for potash at $33.75 per ton - over 50 percent above the 1969 price - and limited Saskatchewan potash output in aggregate, and for each individual mine. In exchange governor Cargo promised to help forestall tariff legislation. Through the whole affair the U.S. pot-
LUMP OF POTASH has a dull appearance, a foul taste, and feels a little greasy. As such it is a good symbol of the “New Saskatchewan” heralded by Liberal election . propaganda during the 1967 provincial election. The “New Saskatchewan” consituted a celebration of Saskatchewan’s hinterland relationship with continental capitalism and the alleged death of the radical politics of the CCF and old farmers’ union. The local board of trade proudly proclaimed Saskatoon as the “Potash capital of the world.” Since then the conservative vision of the “New Saskatchewan” has faded and revealed the reality of the “Old Saskatchewan” with its economic depression and renewed political activism. The potash industry is in trouble, and Saskatoon no _ longer calls itself the “potash capital of _ the world.” Premier Ross Thatcher has had to give legal sanction to a potash cartel that has restricted Saskatchewan output and jobs, that has used its power to force farmers to pay artificially high prices for potash in fertilizer. Potash, a medium-sized resource in’ dusti-y ($700,000,000 capital investment and over $lOO,OOO,OOO annual sales) is a case study in the folly of entrusting economit development to private corporations especially foreign ones.
ash industry frustrated the efforts of U.S. farm co-operatives to get cheap fertilizer and cut off the growth of mining jobs in Saskatchewan. ’
<‘First here, first served’ Several other consequences are of note. On the rationalization of “first here,-first served” the potash conservation board gave quotas to the U.S. mines in Saskatchewan averaging 46 percent of capacity while Canadian mines average 37 percent. The industry had been slowly freeing itself from complete dependence on the U.S. market. From 1965 to 1969 overseas sales grew from 24 per cent to 37 percent of the rapidly expanding Saskatchewan output. From april of 1970 (when the new floor price came into effect; until november of 1970 (the latest available figures) overseas sales amounted to less than 17 percent of a reduced total output. At the same time the high-cost mines in New Mexico were running at over 80 percent of capacity. The result of course, is that miners are employed in the inefficient new mexican mines while their Canadian counterparts cannot find work in the richer mines of Saskatchewan.
For his part in the affair Thatcher was rewarded by governor Cargo with an honorary commission in the United States army. He’s now Colonel Ross Thatcher, U.S. army. There remain many gaps in public knowledge of-the industry. Salt dust in the air and huge amounts of salt water effluent from the mines pose serious pollution problems about which the companies maintain absolute silence. They do not reveal financial statistics or any other data if possible. What is to be done? Public ownership is the only rational solution and fortunately the Saskatchewan NDP has committed itself to consider the feasibility of nationalization when in office.
Accepting
colonial
status
There are arguments against nationalization, three of which are worth considering. The first is the orthodox economists’ argument that the competitive mar-
ket forces of supply and demand will, ’ left to themselves produce the most efficient result. The counter to that argument is to realize that “competitive market forces” have squandered $35O,OOO,OOO (assuming 50 percent overcapacity) on unneeded holes in the prairies. 3 The most incompetent public planning agency staffed entirely by .orthodox economists and political hacks could have developed the industry more rationally. The second, argument against nationalization introduces the problem of a potential hostile american reaction. The argument implicity recognized the fact that american economic power is a threat to an independent Canadian socialism. It is best considered in connection with the third argument that buying out the private corporations would “cost” toomuch. ’ , Compensation to the present owners could be in the form of low-interest, longterm bonds, the interest on which couldbe paid from the operating revenue of the mines. Thus nationalization need not be a drain on money needed for other public services. - c Public compensation would have to be at less than historical cost of construction because full compensation could imply public assumption of responsibility for the stupidity of corporate over-investment during the 1960’s. Compensation would also have to be conditional on U.S. agreement not to retaliate by a boycott of Canadian potash. However, such a boycott is rendered unlikely by the Americans’ need to import potash above domestic production and the high costs of importing such a bulky commodity from a source other than Canada. Obviously nationalization presents risks. However, if Canadians are serious about wanting to develop the Canadian economy for Canadians, those are the kinds of hard decisions we (as socialists) must be prepared to -make. To avoid these decisions is to accept colonial status.

The struggle of hindu-moslem relations and the subsequent indiaPakistan partition in 1947 was the subjpct analysed by Dr. A.H. Zaidi from the university.of London on Wednesday evening. Commenting on the difficulty of summing up i50 years of in&an history, Zaidi effectively outlined the main events leading Ito the partition of India and Pakistan. He briefly outlined topics such as the formation of indian national-m istic feelings, the formation of the moslem league by the muslem patriot Jinnah and the strained relations that eesulted’ between what Zaidi called the idealist Nehru and the rationalist Jinnqh. . Zaidi commented on the ideas that Jinnah, the muslem patriot, drew between, the Indian situation and the Canadian french-english situation. He stressed the’ importan& of
power politics. in the aquisition of authority. He also described the subsehuent voice the minority muslem league had acquired through the unwavering support of closely held religious and cultural beliefs of theMuslems. He took an optimistic view of the conflict in that further racial and political problems would not develop as they had in 1947. Zaidi had to defend his po6ition as questions from the audiehce after his lecture did not hold the same optimism for peaceful relations in the future. In closing he said “when Britain odcupied India it was a mess and when they left it was in a mess.” This summarized Zaidi’s feelings on the racial and political pro& lems that have plagued the indian subcontinent fir hundreds of years. Overall, Zaidi gave a hopeful and optimistic, view of
india-Pakistani relations.

S truggle be tw&en the WaVei by Robert Chodos an@ Peter Allnutt
The atlantic economy is not only underdeve!oped, it is structura!ly underdeveloped, that is underdevelopment is built into the basic framework of the economy. Structural underdevelopm‘ent is the result of manmade mechanisms, the most important of which i is the flow and ownership of capital. Land, labor and potential technolbgy exist in the atlantic region, but can only be utilized in ti capitalist system when capital is available. The foreignbwned firms operating in the maritimes are often vertically integrated. For instance, iron ore is mined by the subsidiary firm and ‘sold’ to its parent company to be develbped into a ‘finished product. Intercompany pricing is arbitrarily fixed so that the‘parent firm earns the profit, meaning less Canadian taxes can be collected from the subsidiary. The region, with its high rate of extractive in rela’ tion to manufacturing industries, has a higher rate of capital outflow than the rest of Canada. What this means to’the people -of the area is low wages,‘ poyerty and high unemployment, and labor renression. Look, for example, at the fa,te of Nova Scotia’s fishermen. In 1966, a young government archeologist named Jeremy Akerman (now Nova Scotia leader of the new democratic parti) began to look into fishermen’s problems while working at Louisbourg on Cape Breton; he ended up organizing the Louisbourg and district fishermen’s association. Meanwhile, the united fishermen and allied workers’ union (UFAWU) had become interested in organizing Nova Scotia fishermen, and the Louisbourg association became its first local. It was the first fishermen’s trade union local in the province in 20 years. The UFAWU was soon active in Halifax, Lunenburg, and other fishing ports as well.

dealings
’
The 235 fishermen in Mulgrave, Canso, and Petit de Grat were dealing with companies that had a particular reputation for harshness and intransigence. In december, 1969; the fishermen began to hold meetings to draw up the details of what they would like to see in a union contract, and in february they approached’ the -companies to talk about an agreement. The companies at first refused outright to meet them, then hedged, saying that they’ would have to consult their head offices. In late march, the fishermen came back to try to initiate a more serious discussion. Booth fisheries manager Earl Levyis told them, “I’m not going to admit in any way, shape, or form that you asked why not, have a union.” When. the fishermen his reply was “no spika da english. ” Fourteen days after the first strike vote began in Petit de Grat, all the boats were tied up in the three ports;- But for more than a month the strike was quiet, and attracted little notice.

It became increasingly difficult for the men to subsist on their ‘strike pay-10 dollars a week for a single man, 15 dollars- for a married man, and an extra dollar for each child up to a maximum of 20 dollars. ’ There was always a supply of fish in Canso, where many of the strikers are inshore fishermen with their own boats, but in the other towns the, companies’ attempt to starve the fishermen out stood a better -chance of success. The fishermen were determined to fight it, and they were helped by co+ibutions of potatoes, other vegetables, and eggs from the Nova Scotia branch of the national farmers’ union.

When they finally sat down with the companies over the bargaining table in Halifax on September 9, the fishermen were confronted with a long list of further company demands. The @hermen agreed to all of them. Then the companies demanded that they be allowed to send vessels out to sea and bring new fish into the plants-i.e. that the fishermen surrenderbefore they would negotiate.

HENRY
IV PART
ONE
Tonight and Saturday night, at 8:30 pm, Blackfriars are presenting Henry IV Part One in the humanities thea ter . Henry IV was written by Shakespeare at a time when he was producing historical plays. For the most part this type of play was written in order to get on the good side of the elite of the day ( thus obtaining ‘a patron). The most famous character to come out of Henry IV is Falstaff - a character portrayed as a fat; aging ‘man who, despite his corruptness is still lovable. Here is a man who is master of the talltale, and can -wind, squirm and squeeze a tale about so that he comes out on top. no matter how many oft his lies he is confronted. with. One of the speeches that Falstaff delivers has a serious chord to it but dressed in a garment of satire - this is the so,liloquy on honor. Here the cowardly Falstaff rationalizes his cowardice with an ingenious discourse that cuts the shit out of the notion of glory and those men’who would search for it. The actor who plays Falstaff in the Blackfriars’ production is
Paul-Emile Frappier, who by far outshines the rest of the cast on all levels. His voice rings out clear and- lond and I he delivers his lines with a great deal of assurance, The rest of the cast’s performance at best is adequate, but for the most part sad.-At the beginning of the play the lines are delivered much too fast and one is left with the feeling that the cast is unsure of itself. As the play moved along the cast eased into their roles and their acting improved. Hopefully by tonight’s and tomorrow’s showings the delivery will be -better as a rapport develops out of familiarity with the audience.. ._-To be fair, after Paul-Emile Frappier, Lee J. Campbell as Henry Prince of Wales, and Andrew Robertson as+Hotspur put in the next best performances. This critic does not believe that Shakespeare should be left only to more professional actors than the university has to offer. Ratber, a lot more in the ‘way of rehearsals are needed here than for a more contemporary play and 8n interpretation of a more critical nature is required of the director.
Only the best for us - and you!.

Since bridge is usually ,played under’ most rules of sportmanship, the opponents have every right to know the exact meaning of any artificial bids used during the auction. Any bid which conveys some special information to your partner, other than some natural meaning, requires that the opponents be warned. Anyone who purposely hides an artificial meaning to a bid from the opponents is not being fair nor ethical in his playing habits. The correct way to “alert the is for the partner opponents”, of the person making the bid either rap the table to signify that the bid has some special meaning, or for the partner to look at the player on- his right and immediately say : “Please wait”.

On january 28, Dunning received notice from the administration that he had section of the Gaspe CEGEP after getting been fired.

A tale of zhers by Bob Chodos Adapted from CUP
at the college, their own dubious suitability to be running a CEGEP will be revealed and their cosy position disturbed (The web is so tight that even the teachers’ union ‘is regarded as an arm of the administration. The union president is Jean Lamy, Georges’ brother. To further complicate matters, Jean Lamy is married to the> sister of 1’Abbe Hughes. ) 1Georges Lamy, short and dapper, has aroused particular distrust among students and teachers. He refused all comment on the Dunning-Kremenliov case. “You understand that we-cannot comment on the confidential files of our teachers. If I went to Canadian University Press and asked them for confidential information about you, I would not expect them to give it to me.” He insisted that it was “an administrative matter” and “not a political question. ’ ’ Very different from Lamy and most of the other administrators is Raymond McGrath; dean of the english section. It was McGrath who hired Dunning and Kremenliov and others like them, with full knowledge of what their beliefs were and what they would try to do. This was consistent with the kind of CEGEP he wanted to build. He repeatedly went to bat for them with his superiors on the french side, several times putting his job on the line in their defence. He is also known as being approachable and sympathetic to students, and has helped many of them with personal and financial problems. But by the end of the/first semester, McGrath and Kremenliov had come to a parting of the ways. January 28, the day Dunning was fired, was the next-to-last day of the semester. Only a handful of students were still writing exams, and most did not find out about the firing until the new semester opened on february 8. Already, on friday, january 29, Kremenliov and others were talking about organizing action around Dunning’s dismissal. According to Kremenliov, McGrath walked into a room where students were writing an exam and warned them not to go on strike telling them that if they did there was a danger that the english side of the CEGEP would be closed. Kremenliov rushed in “because I knew he was lying” and began
to argue with him ; the exam quickly degenenerated into confusion. Some of the students finished the exam, others didn’t McGrath reported the incident to the rest of the administration, and Kremenliov was suspended for “gross insubordination.” McGrath is caught in the middle in the Dunning-Kremenliov case, although Kremenliov hastens to add that “he put himself there.” Kremenliov is bitter toward McGrath as toward someone who betrayed a trust. McGrath evidently has similar feelings toward Kremenliov. McGrath’s feat that the english CEGEP will be closed is an understandable one he lives with the possibility that his own independence will be curtailed, that his superiors will crack down, that his work will be undone. To,a certain extent that has already happened with the firing of Dunning.
“They”
don’t
say much
And in the town the& is a wider fear -
the fear that the position of the CEGEP itself will be called into question. For the college is one of two mainstays of the town’s economy (the other is a mental institution that has also been having its problems it has been operating since September without a psychiatric staff), and many of the townspeople depend on the students for their livelihood. - Meanwhile, Casey Dunning has become a hot item on the town’s gossip circuit. “They say Casey Dunning was peddling drugs” . .. “They say Casey Dunning is a draft dodger. ” Nobody ever bothers to explain who “they” are. In fact, Dunning was not peddling drugs, i and he has a 1-Y draft exemption. But his firing has created some unusual problems for him. The first blow wasa note from Jean-Roth Landry, lawyer for the Gaspe CEGEP, warning him “that you are by the present formally forbidden to appear on the premises or in other buildings rented by the CEGEP. ” Then on Wednesday, february 3,.two RCMP officers came to his door and informed him that he was going to QuebecCity. He would be kept in a detention center there until a hearing was held on his deportation. He had worked in Quebec illegally, he Wastold.
Dunning’s official papers had never been set in order and he had worked at the CEGEP - with the knowledge and consent of both McGrath and’the immigration officer in Gaspe - on the undertanding that they would be forthcoming from the United States. There were repeated delays. . At the time of the firing, the immigration officer (whose wife is McGrath’s secretary) evidently turned against Dunning and it was on information received from him that the local RCMP detachment acted. Dunning was cleared at his hearing on friday, and returned-to Gaspe to reapply for his position at the CEGEP. But talk of ’ a possible student ‘strike had already begun to grow. Sympathetic teachers and students figure that at least seventy-five percent of the students on the english side, most of whom had classeswith Dunning and Kremenliov, would support strike action. But they consider it critical that french students, for whom the issue is more abstract, par-. ticipate in any action that is taken as-well. Until the end of january, Gaspe Peninsula college was a bilingual CEGEP in name only. In reality, it was two unilingual CEGEPs: the french and english sides occupied different buildings in different parts of town. But last monday morning the english students moved into the former . seminary building along with their french colleagues. Any division along language lines would be glaring and harmful and a strike of english students alone would be worse than.useless. “This is not a french-english issue,” emphasizes one teacher, “and we can’t let it appear so.” Kremenliov says “this is an important time not to make mistakes. ” There are still many obstacles to overcome before a successful strike can be brought off, but the nucleus is there. One student waited outside Georges Lamy’s office on monday to get a copy of the official rules of the CEGEP. Another student happened by and asked him what his second-term courses were. “Don’t have many yet. They’ve my teachers. *’ ‘Really? Who was fired?“ “Greg and Casey.” “Looks as if we ‘II have to raise

Oil ripoff imminent The foundations of the internationaloil trade are shaking. The persian gulf countries and Libya have confronted the international oil cartel with a cartel of their own, and are grabbing a big share of profits that used to end up in western Europe and the United States. That means that the keen interest of the american military and the american internationals in Canadian oil will be heightened even more. After all, it’s safe, it’s close, and best of all, it’s theirs. In 1968 the oil industry of Alberta took in 1,027 million dollars in sales (745 million dollars from crude oil and condensate, 171 million dollars from gas, and 76 million dollars from sulphur). What is thegovernment of Alberta taking in from the oil industry? In 1968 the government \of Alberta received 249.9 million dollars (93. million dollars from land sales and leases, 55 million dollars from rentals, and 101 million dollars from royalties). What is the future take? , From the province’s proven reserves it can be estimated that the Al- ’ berta government will receive 4.5 billion dollars and the oil companies 31.1 billion dollars. And what are their costs? “Oil week” estimates that production cost, including production capital outlay, is less than 20 percent of the product value. Justto be sure, let us look at one company, husky oil. In a recent pa-, thetic message, the president stated that the total expenses of the western canada oil industries had been 14.2 billion dollars since 1947 and the return to date only 12.6 billion dollars. Is this an indication of a financial disaster? Don’t worry. Estimates are in the future they will realize another 24.9 billion dollars from the reserves they now control. The fact is that the oil business is enormously profitable. Actual production costs are far below the selling price, as trade journals indicate.

In 1968, the average price of crude oil per barrel was 2.53 dollars: hence profit average 1.47 dollars per barrel of oil. Part of the attractiveness of Alberta oil is the truly hospitable taxation and royalty policy of social credit in Alberta : Government

Since 1968 almost all of the arab countries have established state-r owned oil companies and have renegotiated their oil tax structures, let by the emerging nations of Algeria and Libya. Both of the latter have asked for and received retroactive benefits which will bring in an estimated 1.31 dollars/bbl. The libyan government has bragged about the ease of renegotiating this agreement and of the 760 million dollars in additional benefits over the next five years that these agreements will bring. But back in Alberta, we don’t believe in such rude bargaining. The importance of oil as aTue1, as a pollutant, as a basic resource for -economic development, for a human future, not only for Canada but for the world, is too enormous to be left in the hands of the oil companies.
Sek bias at .MiGiII MONTREAL (CUPI) - A McGill university senate committee has acknowledged that ,women at least those on its teaching staff - are discriminated against. According to the McGill senate committee on discrimination as to sex in the university, “there seems to be a clear indication that the mean salaries of female appointees fell well below those of males despite the fact that, on the average, the former had higher qualif ica tions. ’ ’ The committee- is submitting a list of recommendations, most of which would have had to be implemented anyway if and when proposed changes are made to the labour code. The recommendations include maternity leave with pay, equal \
pay and retroactive pay increases; day care centers for children of university staff, ,and a number of measures to increase the chances of women being hired without sex discrimination. The committee found that “salaries of female staff fall below those of male staff in all ranks and all years . . . the average salaries of ,female staff lie more than 20 percent below those of male staff, though the difference never exceeds 10 per cent in any particular rank. ” This is because the highest number of women is grouped in the lowest rank - that of lecturer. The suggested changes probably will not come into effect until the academic year of 1972-73.

Students who traverse the great cities of Kitchener-Waterloo using their thumbs and those illustrious people who picked them up, should beware. Big brother policeman is after you. The chevron has been notified that if the police find anyone stopping to pick up a passenger in a no, stopping zone he will be ticketed. For example if someone stopped at the corner of Weber and University, to pick some poor helpless sole on the coldest of winter nights, some super cop will come swooping down and lift you for several of your hard earned dollars. So beware when you do your part as a good Samaritan it has now officially been placed off limits, in certain places.

Rees was kind enough to accept It was understood that if a fullc time psychology prof was needed, Hugh would be the first person to be informed of the vacancy. However, rumours began circulating about a month ago that Renison was getting rid of Hugh and that he. was unaware of the situation. One student, representing several others, went to see Wyn Rees about it. Nothing resulted from that meeting A little over a week ago, Miller was asked /by a friend about a position available in the Renison psych department, only to discover it was his job that was being advertised. The job application deadline was march 1st which meant the job had been advertised for several weeks before that time. Why, in a small college like Renison, did no one on the faculty inform Hugh of the deadline? (Hugh had already involved himself in planning next year’s courses, assuming he would have the position next year. ) Why was it that neither of the two other professors involved in the social science program for the same length of time as Hugh did not have to reapply by march lst? Why did the faculty allow Hugh to plan courses for next year if they knew he would not be teaching them? As soon as Hugh was aware of the situation, he went to see Wyn Rees, who finally agreed to accept his late application with the understanding that his chance of being hired was very slim. Hugh suggested that if they
Hugh’s late application though. The meeting to choose a new psychology professor was held last thursday night. The actual decision was deferred, however. When I phoned the Renison office last friday, no date had been set for the next meeting. Several of Hugh’s students have spoken privately to Rees about the situation. Many of us are upset about it. Hugh Miller, besides being a good teacher, is a truly genuine person. He acts as a resource person rather than a figure of authority. He is the kind of person who will go out of his way to help you and has the knowledge and understanding to do it. Too many people want a professor to 7spoonfeed” them and Hugh is unwilling to do this. I am very concerned about this matter; I feel that losing. Hugh would be a great loss to .Renison.

Maybe we should run these pictures out of focus, last week it took sharp-eyed Jenny Pierce less than thirty minutes to identify Don Mervin and Orest Romashyna as the hockey Warriors in dubious battle against the Mustangs in London. Hopefully this one will present a tougher quiz for you veterans, I want all five Warriors identified and as usual the first person to give us the correct names will be retvarded with a free piece of pizza.

Sport - did you say culture? \ by John
Bruce Kidd tells the story of a boy from the Maritimes with good prospects as a runner. He had talent but, as he told Kidd one day at a track meet, he couldn’t train in the-winter: there were no indoor tracks where he lived and he’d be arrested, be said, if he ran in the streets. Later on he stopped competing and eventually he gave up running altogether. Without facilities, coaching and financial support he just couldn’t keep pace. Scratch one Canadian athlete. Scratch thousands. The Maritimes, it’s true, are particularly inhospitable (not on one of the 158 athletes representing Canada in the 1970 commonwealth games came from the Atlatic provinces), but Canada, let’s face it, is a ‘rather ‘alien place for the athletic no matter where he lives. As a people we assign very little importance to sport. We not only deny many of our best athletes the satisfaction of developing their talent; in our preference for watching games rather than playing them (fewer than 250,000 of us participate in any kind of amateur sport), we have become a nation of candidates for Vic Tanny. * Mens sana in corpore sano-a sound mind in a sound body. It’s one of the oldest ideals of civilization, western but somehow, for us, it has lost its currency. We Canadians give high priority to sound minds: providing schools and teachers to build them has taxed our cities to the breaking point. And we believe in culture. Through the canada council (which will spend $32.5 million in 1970-71) and various provincial agencies (most of the provinces now have departments of cultural affairs or cultural development), we patronize the arts to the tune of about $50 million a year. The money provides operating subsidies for such companies as the national ballet, the Canadian opera company, the Neptune theatre, the Stratford festival, the Manitoba theatre centre, the Vancouver playhouse, to name only the largest, and grants from $4,000 to $7,000 to artists, writers, actors and academics (in 1970 there were 2,804 recipients). If the artist in Canada is not as well cared for as some of us might wish, neither does he bear much resemblance anymore to the old romantic stereotype: hungry, scruffy, huddled by a stove in a barren garret. Such hyperbole would more accurately describe the plight of the Canadian athlete. It’s difficult to say precisely how little money we’spend on physical culture because, apart from the paucity of statistical information about sport in Canada (no one knows even how many -hockey arenas we have), it’s almost impossible to sort out what is and what isn’t an honest-to-goodness expenditure on sport. Much of it is hidden in educational costs (building and equipping school gymnasiums, and so on) and there are some administrative horrendous anomalies (in Ontario, for instance, the youth and recreation branch of the department of education is responsible for athletic development, but the department of the provincial secretary, through the commissioner of athletics, dispenses athletic equipment and the department of agriculture finances facilities).
Expenditure
is peanuts!
’
Since 1961 the fitness and amateur sport branch of the department of national health and welfare has been authorized to spend five million dollars a year on grants to sports associations, scholarships (this year 20 students received $1,000 each, 37 non-students received $2,000 each), a federal-provincial cost-sharing program (discontinued last year), research and sponsorship of the Canada games. (In no year, however, has the department spent five million dollars;, from 1961, to 1968 it spent only $15,587,013.) The provinces spend about $5,945,000, but where, generally speaking, federal funds are channeled into competitive sport, the provinces concentrate on public recreation. New Brunswick and Saskatchewan are the only provinces that spend more on sport than culture. Only British Columbia and Nova Scotia give the same amount of money to each. The other provinces all spend more on culture than sport. * * The total in federal and provincial expenditures on sport: about $11 million. Peanuts ! ’ “For people in sport to complain that the arts are getting too much money,”
says playwright Mayor Moore, “is like the Eskimos claiming that the Indians are getting too many social services.” True enough, but you can’t blame the sports people for bleeding a little. The difference between $11 million and $50 million is the difference between fielding a strong Olympic team and just fielding an ’ Olympic team. Lloyd Percival, director of the fitness institute in Toronto, says Canada has dropped to somewhere around the 25th position among the 120 nations in Olympic competition. And John Munro, minister of national health and welfare, says the rate at which we’re losing athletes seeking better coaching and stronger competition-he calls it “the brawn drain” -has reached crisis proportions. Part of the $39 million we’re not spending on sport would build arenas, swimming pools and indoor tracks. Part of that $39 million would train and pay the salaries of coaches and managers. And part of that $39 million would simply stimulate participation. Incredible as it may seem, children in underdeveloped countries such as India score higher in fitness tests than Canadian children! \
Children
aren’t
motivated
In one of two major reports commissioned within the last two years by the department of national health and welfare, P.S. Ross and partners conclude that “the greatest percentage of the population . . . is not motivated toward participating to any degree in physically demanding activities.” That appears to be true even of young people. In a recent study, 66% of the students in a Toronto high school said that they had a high interest in sport, but only 41% of that group actually parti&pated in school sports (and then, some of them admitted, only because in some grades it was compulsory). What accounts for the mixture of contempt and just plain indifference that so many Canadians feel toward sport? Well, partly it’s the result of the unimaginative and overly regimented physical education in our schools. (The Ontario federation of school athletic associations, for instance, stipulates that an athlete’s hair may not be longer in the back than one inch below the base of the skull and sideburns must stop at the earlobe.) Partly it’s what the recent report of the task force on sport for Canadians (the second of the two studies commissioned by health and welfare) described as the old aris“Participation in tocratic attitude. sport,” says the report, “is not accorded the same acceptance as participation in a charitable or fraternal organization . . . even though’ the benefits accorded the community may be quite as great.” And partly it’s the extent to which we have allowed our attitudes toward sport to be tainted by commercialism.
Winning
is everything
Vince Lombardi, the late coach of the Green Bay Packers, is’ famous for the epithet: winning isn’t the only thing, it’s everything. That’s commercial sport. But there is another concept of sport, far more exhilarating and infinitely more enlightened, that Lombardi never knew. Rene Maheu, director-general of UNESCO, describes it this way: “Sport is an order of chivalry, a code of ethics and aesthetics, recruiting its members from all classes and all peoples. Sport is a truce: in an era of antagonisms and conflicts, it is the respite of the gods in which- fair competition ends in respect and friendship. Sport is education, the truest kind of education-that of character. Sport is culture because it creates beauty and, above all, for those who usually have the least opportunity to feast upon it.” Unfortunately, Lombardi’s view of sport has had more adherents in Canada than Maheu’s. But that can change and, to give credit where it’s due, the federal government seems prepared to help. A year ago John Munro, who has taken sport more seriously than previous health ministers (although Dr. Roy Shepherd of the University of Toronto estimates the cost of our poor fitness, based on the incidence of cardiovascular disease and the consequent medical expenditures and lost productivity, at $1.7 billion a year. * Provincial expenditures on sport (in boldface) and culture: BC ($750,000 - $750,000). Alberta ($666,000S1,250,000), Saskatchewan ($41,1 ,OOO-$325,000) Manitoba ($375,006--51.6 million), Ontario ($400,000 -S2.7 million), Quebec (S2.6 million -S13 million), New Brunswick (S300 ,OOO-S9O,OOO), Nova Scotia (S170,000-S170.000). Prince Edward Island (571,658 -S193.000), Newfoundland (S200,000-$600,000). l
MacFarlane
he participates only to the extent of occasionally riding a bike), unveiled a proposed sports policy for Canadians. Much of it he has already implemented. In september the government opened a sports administrative centre in Ottawa, giving nine sports associations office space, supplies, secretarial help and $12,000 a year to employ an executive director. In October the government launched the canada fitness award program, a national test to encourage health and fitness among Canadian youth. In december the government began awarding grants.- in aid to promising young athletes-the ,equivalent of canada council grants, but much less generous. The government also has set up the national coaches association and the Canadian academy for sportsmedicine. Still in gestation is sports canada communication, which will put together a committee of men the government describes as “forces in Canadian communications” to promote amateur sport. The government hasn’t committed itself yet on the most expensive of Munro’s proposals, the creation of a Canada Olympics, which would be held every second year, alternating with the Canada games. And the fate of the most important of Munro’s proposals-to make private donations to amateur sport tax deductible, as private donations to culture are nowis in the busy hands of finance minister Edgar Benson, who gave it his blessing in his white paper on taxation. It’s only a beginning. But in an age when governments are running hard to keep pace with public opinion, it’s ironic that Ottawa, in its appreciation of sport as a constituent of culture, is a lap ahead of most of us.
British
Columbia,
The game is called mini-basketball it’s played with lower baskets and 7-inch soccer balls, and it’s the invention of a group of British Columbia basketball coaches who two years ago began conducting clinics for young people in small outlying communities. One of the coaches is Bill Norton, a 50-year-old guidance counselor at Point Grey high school in Vancouver. What Norton calls “taking sport to the country instead of just waiting for the superkids to come to us” is the result of a $13,000 grant the British Columbia basketball association receives from the provincial government, of which $11,000 has been set aside for a,program of weekend clinics for elementary school students seven years and up and, in the summer, weeklong clinics for children 12 years and older. On trips to such towns as Trail, Prince Rupert, Richmond, Nanaimo, -Kelowna, ’ Penticton, Kamloops and Cranbrook, Norton and the other coaches have introduced basketball to about 2,600 children, “We have to limit the scope of our program because we don’t have enough doaches, ” says Norton. “There should be 10 or 12 expert coaches in every sport conducting clinics in every community across the country.
Alberta Carl Saarinen is a social studies teacher at Queen Elizabeth high school in Calgary and president of the Calgary high school coaches association. In September he and 65 other members of the association went on strike, disrupting the sports programs at 16 of the city’s high schools, to support their demands for compensation-either in time off or a salary increase-for their services as coaches. High-school coaches are qualified teachers who carry full work loads during the day and, in many cases, the additional responsibility that goes with being heads of departments. Music and art teachers, the Calgary coaches pointed out, get classroom time during the day, whereas competitive sport is strictly an after-hours activity, which can necessitate a coach working 10 hours a week longer than any of his colleagues. In October, the coaches were still negotiating with the public - and separate school boards and, realizing that the strike was hurting the students more than anyone else they decided to return to work on a “voluntary” basis. They have warned, however, that, if their demands aren’t met by the spring they’ll be voting for another strike.
“The students are being short changed”, says Saarinen. “By the very fact that the school boards aren’t paying coaches, they are downgrading sports in the school curriculum. If they want to provide the best possible coaches and the best possible program, then they will have to pay the coaches. ”
Saskatchewan A few years ago Saskatchewan gymnastic coach Chuck Sebestyen lost two of his best pupils-Gail Daley, a member of the 1964 Canadian Olympic team who was then touted as “the best gymnast Canada ever produced,” and Irene Haworth, a Canadian champion and US collegiate champion in 1966. Sebestyen,, a fireman in Saskatoon, had coached the girls as juniors, but now they needed more advanced training and there was no one in Saskatchewan to give it to them. Southern Illinois university offered the girls athletic scholarships and naturally they accepted. “At Illinois we got better coaching, the best in facilities and some financial help,” says Irene, who came back to Canada after she finished university and is now teaching physical education at the university of Saskatchewan. Sebestyen ‘s daughter Glenna, 18 and a former junior gymnastic champion, has decided not, to go away to an American university; which is just as well, because sometimes the athletes who leave don’t come back. Gail Daley now lives in Montclair, New Jersey, where she teaches gymnastics and coaches a university team.
Manitoba Jim Daly is 43 and has been an athletic administrator for 25 years. “After I stopped competing in track and field, helping in sport became my hobby.” That changed when Daly became executive director of the 1967 Pan-Amercian games in Winnipeg. Since then he’s been special assistant to the director of the school of physical education at the university of Manitoba. Daly can testify to the interest in sport that can be generated by building facilities. So many people began to use the PanAm pool after the 1967 games, he says, that the city built another Olympic-size pool at the other end of Winnipeg. The velodrome isn’t open in the winter, yet the number of cyclists using it has increased since the games from not more than 20 to 250. And during a six-week period in the spring of 1970 more than 35,000 Winnipeg students competed on the university’s Pan - Am track. _ “I think there’s been too much emphasis on winning and on athletic performance, and those who have not done so well tend to think there is no place for them in Sport,” says Daly. “We spend a lot of time building enthusiasm among young people and then we cease to make use of this enthusiasm; as they get older we lose their support. ”
Ontario Beverly Boys won two gold medals for diving at the 1970 commonwealth games in Edinburgh and is considered a good bet to win an Olympic medal in Munich in 1972. Three years ago Beverly was 16 and living with her family in Oshawa (about 40 miles from Toronto). She was training for the 1968 Olympics in Mexico- city, and for almost a year she and her coach, Don Webb, had to travel to Montreal every other weekend (round trip: about 560 I miles) so she could practise diving from an Olympic - standard tower. They traveled by car and sometimes by plane, and the bill - $6,000-was shared by her parents and the Oshawa aquatic club. Last September Beverly and four other girls from the Oshawa club moved to Winnipeg so that they could train in the pool built for the 1967 Pan - American Games. “I’ll admit I wasn’t very happy about the idea at first,” she says, “but it’s cheaper and less exhausting than weekend commuting. I think there are a lot of kids who just give up because the right pools are too hard to get to and the costs to great for their parents.” “eontihued

Wurriors &Ill number’ -..* Playing to somewhat less than . a capacity crowd a somewhat watered down representative team from the Warrior basketball team proved that they are still number one at this university with their stunning 98-63 win over the intramural all-stars. In a closely fought preliminary game it was the defensive football Warriors gaining a 39-38 win over their offensive brothers. Leading the way in the- third annual gridiron confrontation was defensive star Peter Bedford who hooped an impressive 1-8 points. His closest rival for scoring honors came from Wayne Fox who threw in ten for the losers. Highlights of this game included some stunning blocks by Bob Padfield and neat broken field running by double-dribble Dix. The much talked about confrontation, between the all-stars and varsity b-ball team started out as a one team show as the Wgrriors opened up a quick thirty point lead and jealously held to it for most of the first half. It
-was in the second period of play that the stars began to settle down and play a semblance of basketball. They solved the intricate Warrior defense and began to cut down the insurmountable lead. Alas, the superior conditioning of the Warriors began to take it’s toll and only a bitter defense kept the driving varsity team from putting their total into triple figures. Top scorers included Paul Skrowron and Bill Holinger. Althouh this was probably not one of the better nights of ball that the jock building has seen, all in attendance did enjoy themselves and isn’t that what it’s-all about.

CCORDING TO federal secretary of state Gerard Pelletier, the government’s recently-announced summer youth employment program is not a “baby-sitting service.“Responding to a question last friday at a government-sponsored press conference in Montreal, Pelletier said persons holding this opinion “had no faith in youth imagination.” Over 75 university newspaper editors from Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes were flown to Montreal friday and given overnight accommodations at the Airport Hilton hotel to hear Pelletier outline what some have called his youth “pacification” program.

While the government program will attempt to offer 100,000 summer jobs involving civil service work, drug research, athletic and travel programs and militia training,-over 980,000 students areexpected to be looking for work - emphasis is directed toward the “opportunities for youth” concept coming out of Pelletier’s own office. plan will provide. 15 milThe “opportunities” lion dollars toward financing so-called community projects sponsored by local, volunteer and small agency organizations. . Pelletier said he hoped students in particular would develop ‘ ‘exciting and innovative proposals in a wide range of-community projects including urban re-development, clean-up campaigns, community research projects and pollution probes. ” Pelletier was challenged by many questioners from Quebec, Newfoundland and New Brunswick who complained their provincial governments were attempting to gain control of the federal money being granted.
Misdirect&d
FREES
for youth?
money
They expressed fears the money would be channelled into. existing civil service programs and would never reach the grass-roots community projects initiated by the poor, using student advisors. Pelletier stressed the funds would not be transferred to provincial authority (though there is a liason officer in each province) but did not say what would become of funds remaining if not enough proposals were received by students and community groups before, the early deadline for submission of project proposals. (A fear perhaps discounted on Wednesday when Pelletier announced the government might be able to afford only one or two of every three proposals it has received. ) He further said that proposals would be evaluated on the basis of the estimated value of the program, its significance to students and the reliability of the individuals or groups making proposals. He said the government would not accept “mediocre programs from huge’ organizations in p-lace of imaginative youth proposals.” Responses to other questions indicated grants will not be made for acquisition of capital equipment and there will be no guarantee the federal government’s minimum ,wage guidelines will be followed. *Federal manpower minister Otto Lang has been quoted as saying he is not going to “quibble” with project sponsors about paying the minimum wage; he will accept whatever sponsors are willing to pay the students.
The other
700,000
asked Pelletier to explain his statement that the allocation of funds would be “tilted” to favor areas of high student unemployment. Pelletier’s concept of an “area of high student unemployment” seemed to mean an age bracket in which students had greatest difficulty in finding jobs. He did not indicate a preference on the basis of regional economic need or underdevelop-merit. Commenting that our automated society was destroying the kinds of jobs students used to have in the summer, Pelletier simply said that he expected provincial plans to supplement federal efforts in years to come. Pelletier stressed that though the jobs created I will favor post-secondary students, the funds available were not intended to take the place of ordinarily complete summer earnings.
<
. Pelletier received much criticism for the federal government’s apparent concern with youth at the expense of the nearly 700,096 adults presently unemployed. He asked if a similar “crash” program to stimulate the “creativity and imagination” of these people would not also be a good idea. Yes, he c replied. “But,” he stated, “we don’t believe in having students unoccupied during the summer.” He added it was not the intention of the plan to give students jobs that might otherwise go to unemployed adults. Pelletier indicated some confusion when asked if the programs would be assigned on a regional disparity basis. “A thousand dollars means more to a student in Newfoundland than it does to said one questioner who a student in Ontario,”
participation
One of the first campus reactions to the opportunities for youth plan came from this university’s federation of students which as early as tuesday had forwarded a 20 thousand dollar request to Ottawa for the summer operation of Camp Columbia, the federation-sponsored day camp for underpriviledged Waterloo area children. Federation vice-president Carl Sulliman said the request included salaries for 20 counsellors as well as rental of supplies and equipment. The federation has also approached the provincial government for money to run this year’s camp. Though any interested students and organiza” tions are free to submit proposals through local manpower and placement offices, there appears ’ to be confusion within these organizations as to the procedures required of applicants. Individuals on campus have reported delays with the placement office, and as late as Wednesday local manpower people claimed no word from Ottawa on correct methods of processing applications. Enquires for applications and information seem best handled if made directly to Ottawa. Write “Opportunities for youth”, c/o the secretary of state department, 130 Slater street, Ottawa, or call Information Canada at 416-362-2211 (Torontok or 613-996-7061 (Ottawa). Other campus activity with the government plan will take place tuesday afternoon in room 110 of the campus center when an ad-hoc committee of students will “brainstorm” plans to employ students through the government program. Anyone interested is invited. Not everyone is pleased with the “opportunities” plan. Among them is Toronto Telegram columnist Dennis Braithwaite, who asks “How about finding work for 700 or 806 thousand heads of families and others who are walking the streets or standing in breadlines ?” Braithwaite writes: ‘The government knows it won’t get five minutes worth of useful labor for its 57 million dollars: that’s not the intention. What the program really amounts to is a big fat bribe, a desperate and probably futile plan to buy juvenile peace during the summer ahead. If there’s one thing Pierre Trudeau is hooked on, its public order; if he can’t reason with the kids or down-face them into docility, then he’ll buy them off with fun and games disguised as works projects ,I. . .But what are we going to do with all these kids? I don’t mean this summer or next, but when they finally graduate from university. There are no jobs for most of them and never will be, not the Y kind of jobs they are trained for. There’s work to be done, yes; but it isn’t work they’ll do. You won’t catch BA s or MA’s, conditioned to be more or less useless, fulfilling useful tasks, like plumbing or carpentry. Besides, the unions wouldn’t stand for it.’ “‘Maybe we’ll have to shoot all ,these redundant kids or transport them to Australia, or start a war to get rid of them. One thing’s sure, we can’t afford to go on supporting them in idleness. No way.” -
One wonders if Braithwaite is being tongue-incheek until the parallels of his suggestions to history make an indelible comment on the state of western society . The federal government’s program seems more and more a “pacification” - a coping mechanism - to sidetrack confrontation with those elements of our political and economic system that create over-production and unemployment in the first I place. And in all the snazzy press conferences and paid trips, ‘this much-needed confrontation is inevitably forgotten.
