and
grunt
An announcement concerning Ontario graduate fellowships and grants-in-aid of research for 1972-73 was made friday by John White, minister of colleges and universities. The Ontario graduate fellowship program will be continued in 1972-73. This will provide an opportunity for those studying the whole question of graduate support to complete their deliberations and to prepare-appropriate recommendations. The terms and conditions under which these awards will be given will be essentially the same as in 1971-72. A complete review will be undertaken and a major change in graduate student support may be anticipated in 1973. A brochure explaining application procedures will-be distributed in the near future.

Shulman said
this was because burger had mentioned, in days following the suicide, that the police had done nothing wrong. King was very uncooperative with the press. He threatened to hold a Record reporter in contempt when he questioned the doctor about the case. The first inquest consisted of testimony from doctors and policemen. Eleven policemen testified. They described events leading to the arrests and jailings ,of the cebula brothers, the traffic in and out of jail that day, discovery of the body and attempts at resuscitation. The second inquest was held on january 7th and consisted largely of testimony from youths involved with cebula in the robberies. Much of the testimony friday concerned the disproving of allegations made in the chevron and guerilla. A chevron article of november 2 reported that a 15year-old member of the gang heard cebula screaming on the afternoon of the 25th. When examined by crown attorney morrison, the youth denied telling a reporter this. He said he heard screaming but was unable to identify the voice. Later testimony showed that the screams came from another 14 year-old member of the gang who was showing Corp. Stuart Wilhelm how to handle a whip. The most significant testimony of the day was delivered by sgt.

The question arose as to why all the boys but cebula were fed. “We’re not brutal”, stewart replied.

Most of these incidents involved cebula’s abuse of nail polish remover and speed. “It bothered me that I couldn’t
had been read, king dismissed the . jury. The recommendations the jury returned with are as follows: 1) Arresting officers should sign for cellblock keys and the prisoner should be registered with the custodian of the keys. 2) An officer should be placed in the cell area whenever there are prisoners. 3) More interrogation rooms should be provided for those awaiting questioning. 4) The police should be given powers to arrest and find proper medical attention for persons under the influence of intoxicants such as nail polish removers.
Too rnmy questions are left unansWered The representatives from the human rights caucus put forward a rather ineffectual front at the Cebula inquest. The question still remains open as to why Ray Cebulla, picked up for questioning, would kill himself. There are varying reports about this. Though the inquest brought out that Ray was often depressed and had spent time in a psychiatric institute, one of his friends said that she did not believe that Cebula would kill himself. Prisoners in the cellblock who could have testified \were excluded from the inquest because they had “alcoholic problems”. Does this make them unable to describe Ray’s condition before he was last seen alive? All the youths mentioned a fear of police and an animosity towards several individuals on the force. Sgt. Stewart openly admitted that he had threatened to “pin one boy’s ears back” if he didn’t co-operate and was not ashamed that he had once slapped a youth around during questioning. This attitude could-have had an effect on the kids’ testimonies. They will have to face the police again now that the inquest is over. In any case, all this doesn’t matter anymore to Ray Cebula. He can be filed away as a poor kid who got screwed up and died because he couldn’t make it the straight way. Something could have been done for him. Arresting and sending him to the hospital would not have solved the problem. He needed trained people to help him, but the only’community people he came in contact with were the cops who have no training in social work and obviousljr, in many cases, no capacity for it. -mart

Research was done on possible food sources, a truck pool was organized, a price list was drawn forms were UP, and order distributed. To economize on transportation costs, the first order was picked up in conjunction with the guelph general store, and the goods were weighed and bagged by some active members. A typical order included grains, honey, dried fruit and beans, cheese, yogurt and kitty litter. Last week a second order was collected and in the future orders will be collected every fortnight.

It’s time to end the towing
madned
Should 6 private towing company be _- uble to hold your car for ransom ? . The towing mania on this campus has gone on long enough. It is time for some action-action by the administration or failing that, action by the students and faculty. This university, by plan ~ pr simply by disinterest, has stopped giving tickets to cars for parking regulation offenses and has turned cars over to an outside towing company for offenses ranging from parking on the ring road to minor offenses such as parking in a no-parking zone which is not marked as such inside a lot. And, according to university spokesmen, no written guidelines exist on towing. In the words of a security official, “Once the towing company gets its hooks on your car, its a matter between you and the company. ” Not only are cars towed away from the place of the infraction, but they are taken by the towing company to its home station in Bridgeport, a small village across Waterloo and inaccessable from the university by public transportation. Once a driver’s means of transportation is -taken away, how is he expected to get out to Bridgeport? And, no cheques are accepted. So, if your car is taken-or if you discover it has been taken?after the banks close, you had better have 12 dollars in cash on you and a. friend to drive you out to, Bridgeport. The security office spokesman said that all cars towed during the day are taken directly to Bridgeport and that “sometimes” cars are kept on university
Objections expected The administration is expecting at least one source of objection to the University of Waterloo Act when it begins to advertise the act in the upcoming weeks, but that objection won’t come from on campus. The arguement will come from the city of Waterloo, and it will be against section 8 of the act, which deals with expropriation of land by the municipality. Under the terms of the act, which is now before the Ontario expropriation of legislature, university land is forbidden. The city had tried to get the section killed before it was sent to Toronto, but was unsu,ccessful. . So now Queen’s Park will decide. The university’s stand holds that
property if taken during the evening, but there is no policy on this. Getting your car back costs you about half as much if you can catch them while they’re holding it on university property. Even if you arrive at your car before its been moved, you will have to pay a towing fee to the company for them to disengage their equipment. Now, according to all university sources, the university of Waterloo gets none of this money-it all goes to the towing company. In a time of tight budget considerations here, it would seem to make sense to funnel as much of this money as possible back into the university coffers, but the administration does not seem to see the logic even of that. Questioned during a press conference last thursday, president Matthews admitted he did not know much about the towing, said he did not know how the towing company got the rights to come onto campus to do the -towing (he didn’t know whether or not tenders had been issued) and said that cars were always kept on university property unless left after midnight, when they are taken to Bridgeport . Matthews was either deliberately misleading the reporters present, or there is simply no policy behind the towing other than that set by the company itself. Because Matthews was supposedly part of the committee which set the new regulations. If the university is truely getting no money out of this, then the administration should look into the situation simply out of self-interest

if not out of consideration for the people on cam,pus. At 12 dollars a throw, the MPM towing service is taking a lot of money from Waterloo students and visitors. And, if bids were not even accepted, perhaps they are taking the money illegally. All this needs looking into, and a lot of questions need to be asked: l Why are signs not posted at all lots warning drivers that cars will be towed away for virtually any offense? Present signs say cars will be towed “if not parked in designated lots.” No warning is given that cars will be towed out of designated lots for other reasons. l Why is there no written policy on what the towing company can and cannot do? The university has abdicated responsibility for t&e whole situation. l Why do different university officials have different ideas about what_ is being done by the towing company? Is there no communication ? Or are we being deliberately misled?
to universHy act are from city of Wuterloo the property is government property already-provincial government-so cannot be taken away by a municipal government. “This university is provincial property in a very real sense,” president Burt Matthews told reporters at a press conference last week. An implement&ion date for the act of May 1 which was originally mentioned by Matthews. has now been set back to July 1, but he says he is still co&dent of approval of the act by the MPP’s. “My general impression,” he told the press, “is that the (department of university affairs) minister is prepared to support the act as written.” Under provincial law, the act must be advertised once each week
for six weeks while the act is before the legislature. Matthews said a brief outline of the act will be published six times in the Kitchener-Waterloo Record at least, and perhaps in one of the Toronto papers. So far, the act has elicited no real opposition on the campus itself. Matthews also announced dt the conference that the university has gained approval for a graduate program in “physiological optics.” Most\ new programs have been stalled by the province, but this program fell under the exceptions allowed to continue, since it will be the only graduate optometry course offered- in Canada. He told reporters also that the faculty association has withdrawfi its application to the minister of labour tti be recognized -as a bargaining unit in current salary negotiations. “I think they realized they would not be successful,” said Matthews. The two sides are now negotiating salaries for the 12 months beginning June 1.
l Why is the university “paying” this company to come onto campus with a free hand? The towers are being paid in the same way a bounty hunter is paid-by the scalp. a Why are signs not posted which warn of the expanding towing policy? l Why are lots not opened at night, when key-holders aren’t using them? l How did the MPM company get the rights to the towing? Matthews said at the conference, after admitting he did not know the answer to several of these questions, that he “and a committee” would look into the situation. By the time one of this university’s many committees gets around to looking into it, the problem will have been solvedthe term will be over.
It needs to be looked into right now by the administration, and if that does not happen, then the students should find some way of bringing it to the administration’s attention. Yes, there is a parking problem on this campus. The campus is simply .not centrally iocated in Kitchener-Waterloo and so many people cannot get public transportation. But the problem is one to be faced with discussion and in the open, not one to be handed over without restraints to a towing company so that they can make more money off the students. Most students are barely keeping solvent enough to remain at university, much less being able to pay ransom payments to a towing company. A show of concern from the administration now will be expected.

Lighthouse had one of the year’s better albums in One Fine Morning, and their latest, Thoughts of Movin’ On (GRT9230-lOlO), should help to consolidate their position as one of the more competent Canadian groups. On their last two records Lighthouse has been moving towards a big-band sound rather similar to Chicago’s, sacrificing som6 of the latter’s precision for a more relaxed, good-timey approach appropriate for such material as “Fly My Airplane” and “Rockin’ Chair.” They could still use one dynamite lead singer, but collective harmonizing and undermixing of their vocal efforts makes this a less than debilitating deficiency. The most attractive aspect of this release is the horn which are arrangements, generally very good and occasionally superb, as on the chorus of “What G&es You the Right,” tihere there’s a raunchy little riff worthy of “The Memphis Horns. ” The electric violins, cellos, etc. which cluttered up their -albums for RCA have been effectively subdued, allowing drummer skip prokop to drop the role of “percussionist” and just kick everyone along-which he does as well as any of his counterparts with Chicago or BS & T. Thtis Thoughts of Movin” On indicates that Lighthouse has (finally) found its groove; hopefully they will settle down and mine it for a while. Lighthouse doesn’t do anything outrageous or far out, but they do create solid, entertaining big-band rock-and, like various other things, a good band is hard to find. I was sort of half-listening to Madura Eolumbia G 30794) when a particular harmony evoked .the thought “Geewhizzickers, they sound just like Bangor Flying Circus”-a dunhill album which I lauded in an earlier column. This ceased to -amaze me as soon as I discovered that two-thirds of B.F.C. are now in Madura, although you would never know it from the complete abscence of liner /notes. Sadly, Madura does little more than remind me of B.F.C.; whereas the latter was a tight and tasty collection of excellent songs, featuring well thought out, jazzflavored improvisations, Madura is a double album of generally weak material done in a thoroughly conventional manner. There are a few pretty things on this release-“ Drinking No Wine” and “My My What A World” are at least melodically interesting-but nlore typical is such pretentious nonsense as “Joy in Old Age By Way of Self Observation” (I kid compared to which you not), “When I’m 64” is Beethoven’s
Ninth. The nadir of the album is reached on a six-minute version of Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B. Goode,” which you ‘might have heard at the hide-ho lounge of the hespeler holiday inn-ten years ago: It really is atrocious. I wouldn’t spend this much time knocking Madura if I hadn’t already picked up on the Bangor Flying Circus LP, which forces the conclusion that Columbia-producer james guercio, specifically, has messed up a potentially monster group. Properly handled, Madura could become a sophisticated version of emerson, lake, and palmer; but they have been poorly served here, and I can only suggest that you scrounge around for their dunhill album-it’s worth it. On a happier note, Merry Clayton \’ (Ode SP 77012) is a somewhat uneven, but often exciting, new release from the lady who put the soul into “Gimme Shelter. ” This is a diverse collection of songs from many sources, including carole king, leon russell, and neil young, performed in a gospel-bluesmotown style as unique as it is eclectic. The high point of the album comes in the last half of Side OFe : “Love Me Or Let Me Be Lonely,” with- merry’s wailing set off by a gorgeous jerry peters arrangement, is followed by a slowly building, carefully constructed “A Song for You” (by leon russell)-with a soul sister chorus wrapping things up in fine “ Aah! ” form-and a sprig:?; version of billy Preston’s “Sho’ Nuff” completes ten minutes of awfully-close-to-perfect music. . The three carole king songs are o.k., although not quite up to their composer’s interpretations ; but carole did do the arrangements, which are typically terse and to the point. Neil young’s “Southern Man” and baby james’ “Steamroller”, however, are so clbsely identified with their authors that “straight” cover versions just don’t m’ake itmerry doesn’t take them over, she just sings the words. But with these two exceptions, merry Clayton has given us an album which demonstrates a high degree of both talent and versatility ; and if you’re not yet into soul music, this would be a good place to start. Finally, The Flip Wilson Show (Little David 2000) is a mish-mash of comedy bits from flip’s TV thing, one of which-“The Blue&is pretty funny, the remainder rather dull. Also highly “Uncle Tom”-ish, and probably extremely. offensive to anyone who sees nothing humorous in the perpetuation of racial stereotypes-I assume archie bunder has his copy. pad stu

George Grant: the neglected intellectual Technology and Empire, George Grant, House of Anansi, 1969.

L
Several Canadian born intellectuals who have moved to the U.S. of A. are well known to Canadians, through’the media. The best example is mcluhan, who is the hero of the international, technological marketplace ; but the economistgailbraith, ambassador, also fits into this scheme. Indicative of our colonial mentality is the fact that intellectuals with far less of a commmercial, gimicky identity, who are still in canada, are not so Such is george widely known. grant. George grant moved from the maritimes to southern Ontario, where he is chairman of religion at mcmaster university. Mcluhan, the archetype of the successful colonial, moved from southern Ontario to the U.S.A., and manages metropolis and branch-plant communications research industries. We might think that a professor of religion has little or nothing to say in the age of space travel, but grant’s perspective on the technological society is profound where mcluhan’s is, at his Guttenburg least since Gallaxy, somewhat trite. ,
j
,
I do not pretend to be able to discuss classical and modern history and philosophy in as knowledgeable a fashion as grant; not yet. But I can attempt to translate, in this review, some of his pertinent insights, and compare my own perspective on technology with his, as a means for heightening our awareness of the fascistic tendencies within the corporate society. Unlike grant I believe there is a way out, which is becoming clearer to us, but without facing the depth of grant’s questions I do not believe that way can be created. Not unlike jaques ellul, grant believes that “ . . .the technological society has stripped us, above all, of the very systems of meaning which disclosed the highest purposes of man, and in terms -of which, therefore, we could judge whether an absence of something was in fact a deprival.” For him this is the overbearing characteristic of modern society, something which makes various political dogmas, which seem to be in opposition, variations on a common theme. Grant writes: “Our ruling managers are able to do what they do just because sufficient of them among technology and liberalism support each other as identical.” Hence all the humanitarian explanations for the. genocide in Vietnam, trudeau’s past apologisms included.
value-free science Liberal genocide, which some\ may think to be a contradiction in terms, has been assisted by the talk of value-free science and the “end of ideology”, something this university, like all, has pushed since the late 50’s. Of this grant says : “What this phrase flatteringly covers is the closing down of willing to all content except the desire to make the future by mastery, and the closing down of all thinking which transcends calculation.” One chapter of his book deals with how the university
curriculum has been perverted by this process. What of the opponents to liberal genocide? Grant believes that both the marxists and the new left fail to understand the roots of the technological society. He speaks of “. . .the naive/account in marxism of imperialism as simply a product of late capitalism.” “The marxists who have described the conquest of the continent as an example of capitalist rape miss the substance of those events, as an incarnation of hope and equality which the settlers had not found in europe.” Here grant can be criticized for not undertaking a specific analysis of Canadian history, one which utilizes some marxian methods ; but his depiction of contemporary marxism, and it’s naive technological optimism, still srikes home. For example: “Indeed domestic marxists have been able as a minority to concentrate on the libertarian and utopian expet ta tions in their dot trines because unlike marxists of the east they could leave the requirements of public order to others.” What of the neo-marxian opponents to liberal genocide, the new left ? Of the “language of sheer protest” of youth, grant says “because they have been taught no language but the modern, they use it not only to insist that the promises of the modern be fulfilled, but also to express their anguish at its denials.” How true it is that most of the dissaffiliated young want their cake and wish to eat it. Hence the statement that “. . .however libertarian the notions of the new left, they are always thought within the control of nature achieved by modern techniques,” does need to be taken seriously. It is because grant sees this unity of liberal genocide and its naive’opposition that he concludes “ . . .that the drive for radical change in this society tends only to harden the very directions the society is already taking.. .”
conservatism Grant is not pushing a line, iasking us to think as he and be saved. He scrutinizes his own political tendencies as thoroughly as others. For example, he evaluates one of his earlier essays in this book by talking of “the futility of conservatism as a theoretical standpoint in this era.” This futility was expressed well in grant% book Lament for a Nation, written after the downfall of diefenbaker & the hegemony of continen talism. Where does this leave us? Grant is clearly angered that the university has become a place where specializa tion is synonomous with vested interests. He desires a contemplative education that develops our ability serve to judge what “activities human fulfillment.” But believing that “ . . .we did not bring with us from europe the tradition of contemplation” and that science of final means “the elimination purpose” from the study of human and non-human things, grant believes himself, almost by explicit admission, to be ’ irrelevant. And so he may be, unless he can make an essential shift from the
past in the present to the futures, plural, in - the present. Grant describes too well what the dominant future is in the present. But he seems unable, within his categories, to see how that dominant future, a potentially fascistic one in my terms, develops from the past he reveres so painfully. Am I slipping into the logic of progress myself in saying this. I think not. Grant is hung up on religion, rather than sensing what needs religion fulfills and how, as those needs are transformed, something other than religion can develop. In the same way that he thinks human culture is passed on by tradition, he thinks that human contemplation is passed on’ by religion. I must take exception with this view of history. For example, Grant writes “For the universal and homogenous state to be a realisable political end, Christian theism had first to be negated.” He goes on to blame modern philosophy (e.g. hegel) for secularizing the “religious idea of the equality of all men” and suggests that “Only in the radical negation of theism is it possible to assert that there is progress-that is, that there is any sense or overall direction to history.”
i counter-culture shares with grant the view that “the fruits of our dominant tradition have so obviously the taste of rot in their luxuriance. ” It’s just that grant greatly underestimates the real power of this movement away from individualistic and nuclear consumption. He is right in saying “.. that men who see the religious problem seriously will be forced to retreat from-the public sphere and concern themselves with what they consider to be the true religion.” But he is wrong in concluding that “The public sphere will then be turned over to the advocates of the religion of progress and mastery, to do what they want with it.“.
notion of progress
Then why is grant so emphatic of the circular skepticism which leads him to see all radicalism as playing into its enemies hands?
I
--
It is in this sense that grant’s book can be called obscurantist, even elitist. He seems to not know that he shares a common predicament, one necessitating a common alternative. But one can only see and ‘say this once grant’s critique of liberal genocide is thoroughly grasped. To disregard grant is to try to pretend that the human race is not constantly on the brink. And even when grant’s circular skepticism is recognized, two things still stand out as a basis for a truly new beginning. One is his respect for the non-human, out of which we come and of which we are a part both in life and death. One need not be religious in the old sense, at all, to recognize how crucial is this understanding to our work (8~ play) to redirect the technological society. The other is his emphasis on what is good over both liberal and socialist ideas of freedom. The ideologies of what I call state capitalism (both capitalist and communist forms) would like us to think that with the rise of the technological society humanity has reached its apex. Though grant would probably not accept this use of his notion, I suggest that in stressing what is good over old notions of freedom we are just beginning to make the acid test in our evolution.
an open statement Grant is caught in a very real dilemma. He rightly believes that with the dominance of the technological society our human need for contemplation has been undermined. So he is despairing. Yet if he did not sense that there were others who yearn for this today why would he write? As an objective historian of the very technological society he dispises? No ! So he is open to a real alternative, in fact he ends his last essay, before his platitude, with just such an open statement.
I cannot take grant’s worldview seriously just because I take his criticisms so literally and per: sonally. Grant’s insights into scientism, whether of the capitalist behavioralistic or the communist marxian form, are indispensable for any understanding of the technological society. But his concern for the nurturing of contemplation is far too crucial to associate with a largely dead religious tradition. I would like to ‘suggest that in the same way that Lament for a Nation was written (1963) before an authentic Canadian nationalism was showing itself, Technology and Empire was written (1969) before an authentic counter-culture was forming.
common predicament
Perhaps in not being able to break from the dominant culture himself, say the university, grant is left with a one-dimensional notion of social reality and alternatives. The point is that each time someone withdraws from the institutions of liberal genocide the system is exposed a little more. And this process, this dialec5cal process (perhaps grant should not have rejected hegel so easily), is beginning to become exponential.
Most critics of grant never get to the crux of his argument. Being believers in some version of liberal genocide (even if they have joined the anti-Vietnam war bandwagon they probably haven’t yet joined the ecology one,> they disregard grant before even grasping his religious critique of progress. However, anyone who is open to grant’s honest insights into the technological society and its political ideologies, can locate a very central problem in his perspective.
Grant himself accepts a notion of progress, by his own definition. He ascribes a determinism to the technological society and hence implies an “over-all direction to history.” He ends up with a formal notion of history to complement his formal view of contemplation.
There are two answers to this. One is had by looking at the state of the world, at everything together. Such almost inevitably will precipitate a freak out, hence most people protect themself from the total reality of our and other species. The second answer is to be had by looking at grant’s life. Each of us, no matter how aware of the total picture of humanity, can begin to nurture an opposing tendency, with a little help from our friends. Grant seems to not only share something with the idea of secular progress, (that the technological society has a direction,) but he seems to share in the notion of powerlessness that goes hand in hand with this. In this sense grant is crying out for help from the midst of the monster.

Long John’s Blues frel!zes and packages an interesting hunk of those memories, being a collection of twelve of Baldry’s best from 1964-1966.
The lp itself is tough to slot or even characterize-mainly due to the variety of completely different approaches taken towards the material, most of which is mainstream american witherspoon-morganfield or baldryoriginal. This isn’t baldry style, its baldry searching for his style, and the techniques and arrangements tried makes the record an exciting if sometimes schizophrenic product. This isn’t just blues with d british twist, nor a simple reproduction of tested styles; it’s both of these and more, with an evident jazz influence running throughout. If some of the cuts miss; its because of a tendency to beef it, speed it, bop it and punch it out a little more than blues can withstand; this is especially true of ( “Roll ‘Em Pete”, which loudly aborts in the midst of an almost tom jones type “byebyebyebye..” ending, and also of “Up Above My Head”, the ’ first of the many baldry-rod stewart duets recorded to be released, which comes out over-spiritualized to the point of approximating a rather daring ed Sullivan presentation. All in all, the really fine accomplishment of which Baldry and The Hoochie Coochie Men are capable shines through on bands like “Five Long Years” and “You’re Breaking My Heart” which feature a gripping, believable baldry adaptation of early style north american lyrics and negro-type vocals.. .slow, drawn out, talkin’-wailin’ blues with a trickling piano-ramble background and light harp. The rest of it is all easy listening with the added extra that baldry sometimes dips into the slow beat, moody-bar jazz world (“Gee Baby”) for innovative flourish. This was baldry’s apprenticeship and it can be worth sharing.

Curlers back on the rocks The end of the term brought fall curling to an ‘end for another year. At the recreational level, the curling club’s membership dropped, but we hope it will pick up in the New Year. Two trophies were presented this term -for the recreational league. The monday --night trophy was contested for by the top two teams of brian fisher and john pearson. Pearson won 7-4 to win the trophy; members of his rink were anne mallon. brute Craig and e. chips. Pearson and fisher, being the top two rinks in the thursday night schedule, played off again for that , trophy. Members of the winning rink were skip john pearson, m. staples, and a. bright. Recreational curling will begin again early in january and instruction will be given to all who desire it. So if you WOL ?l like to curl in the winter term, its only $2.00 and you can curl 4 hours a week. Registration will be at the granite club on monday, january 10th and thursday, january 13th

The vi/he
of Doon: emu-/fed by progress
If you drive south of kitchener through the industrial basin you will arrive in the village of Doon. Most persons previously visited Doon to tour the old Homer Watson homestead, an area pioneer woodlands, now used as an art school. However, recently there have been signs of an increasing threat to the exsistence of Doon as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;pioneer villageâ&#x20AC;?. Not only has there been threats of the industrial basin expanding to engulf Doon,
but now Major Holdings, Wiebe limited, has purchased the surrounding land and is creating a full scale subdivision. This subdivision extends from north of the main street of Doon, around and past Doon pioneer village, and extending to the Doon school of fine arts. Thearea is zoned for both single family dwellings and multiple family dwellings, including potential towne house and apartment sites.

The basketball athenas held a’ reconditioning camp last week which showed that the team needed a great deal of practice after their long Christmas lay-off. In the two clinics they held for local groups the team was again forced to think about their basketball fundamentals which need continual stressing. On Saturday the athenas travel to hamilton for hamilton and district ladies basketball association annual tournament. Teams at the tournament will include those from lakehead, ottawa, london, Windsor, st. catherines and Cleveland. Last year the athenas beat out lakehead by one point in overtime to take the consolation final. The next home game will be on january 25 against the university of guelph. The cheerleaders are back again in full force and in new uniforms. Team-leader rod mc cormick promises turn-outs for the basketball season similar to that witnessed at the fall encounters. Anywhere between nine and thirty cheering people should be doing cartwheels and other neat things on the floor. Nine-hundred bucks were spent on new uniforms to outfit the group with new sweaters and a patented tartan design. As always with the group, new members are invited and always welcome. The practices and dancing are held daily in the combatives room of the jock shop. Football is no more at laurentian university in sudbury. The professors of physical education and recreation at that institution deemed it necessary to delete the
sport from the school’s athletic program because of budget problems. Four other varsity sports also fell under the axe. The 15,300 dollar football budget will now be put to other uses in the athletic department, one probable use is to augment the 17,100 dollar budget now being enjoyed by the laurention hockey squad. Thirty six intercollegiate hockey players in the CIAU were invited to
spend seven days at a training camp in toronto over the Christmas break. No warrior pucksters were in the choice, but the u of tee blues were well represented with six players. Loyola college of montreal had four selections. From the OUAA, western had two choices included, with one from Ottawa, trent,‘ queens, Carleton, and york universities. The Canadian teams will be composed of 20 college players with clare drake of the university of alberta serving as coach. The team will participate in the world student games hockey competition scheduled for lake placid, new york from february 26 to march 5. Russia, rumania and the united states are other definite participants with final confirmation yet to come from japan, finland, south korea and Sweden. A Canadian team has never won the student hockey title within recent years although the toronto blues fared well a few years back beating the russians but losing to the Czechs. This year for the first time a composite team will be the representatives. In past seasons, the CIAU champions were entered, Should be a good showing.

policies
This is my first year at Waterloo having transferred from another university. I had heard many good things about this institution that influenced my decision; some of them being excellent academic facilities, well coordinated programme of studies and good relations between staff and students. I personally feel that this last point is a vital factor in keeping peace on campus. Admittedly, personal factors determine the nature of many relationships and often these tend to be strained. The demands of one may not agree with the attitudes of the other causing friction between them. As you probably know, these strained relationships can extend to large groups of people, observe the relatively unstable social conditions in the U.S. It is no mystery that there are certain pbll’cies at of this university (most of which concern economic interests), which are met by frowned brows of those whom the policies affect. The parking rules come to my mind asan example of such policies.
Sometimes the enforcement of such policies is in good judgemeht, for example, the towing of cars from in front of fire hydrants or strategic exits and roadways. I personally feel that a driver who leaves an unattended vehicle in any of these places is showifig inconsideration towards the basic rules of the road and deserves to suffer the consequences. My objections arise from two of the towing policies employed by security : -the towing of cars from the parking lots above village one especially when the car is only parked overnite. There is -no way that those parking lots are going to be filled between the hours of 1 to 8 am and -the towing of cars all the way to the service stations contracted to do the towing. I was particularly annoyed at the second policy above. My car was parked at the village one parking lot at one in the morning and I fully intended on removing it by, 8 am the same morning. I had done this on a number of occasions without any warning about the possibility of being towed away.

Hey, you know what some hip, “looking” instructor dope-smoker at this university told me the other day? In all seriousness, he said ‘that smoking too much dope (grass, hash) makes you crazy. -Well, that’s a bit much. If you don’t know what you’re talking about, people, keep your trap shut. The above phoney is the antithesis of what an kducated person should be. Discuss what you know and shut-up when you don’t. It’s possible that you might learn something. Anyway, while I’ve got the chance let me say something to the Why fo-real heads on campus. don’t we have a smokers’ conference for our benefit ’ and for those that don’t know what good vibes are as compared to bummers.

What was more annoying was that security informed me that the car was at the shell station at bridgeport and lancaster.As you know bridgeport is one way coming into Waterloo and there are no bus lines that go that far east, so its a good three mile walk from king. If your policy following employees intended to slap’ my wrist for being a bad boy it worked. Congratulations. If your highly authoritarian policies are intended to keep everybody in line as in a boot camp I feel that soon you ought to consider a few leniency measures such as warning people and instructing them about the rules, or enforcing rules only when necessary. From a personal observation of the relationships between staff and students at this university and that at other institutions, I cannot help but note that there has been very little unrest here. Situations like this are highly however, modifiable depending on the number of people that feel strained relations with security.

I would like to comment on mr. roulet’s letter in the december 3 issue cif the chevron. Mr. roulct has extracted a single quote from what was apparently a discussion. liis only apparent purpose in presenting this exerpt is to make larry kendall look bad. If the chevron keeps printing garbage like mr. roulet’s letter, it will degenerate into little more than an oversized gossip column. Conrad lettitor’s . . What dersized

GLM should be offering services for those who need them to help us get ourselves together. Psychiatry and the social service agencies are useless; only gay people can help gay people and yet, even though one of the widely advertised aims of our local group is to provide just that kind of service, nothing much more is offered than. the opportunity of socialiqation in a safe atmosphere on monday nights. If you happen to be young andbeautiful you probably get a bit more but, all in all, not very much is being done for the majority. The existence of gay lib, has brought about the old problem Df raised expectations an&, since the group here is riot attempting to meet these expectations, it would be better if-it didn’t even exist!

I should like to say that jim parrott’s extremely silly letter to the chevron, dec. 10 is not -indica tive of where gay liberation, movement on this campus has its collective head these days. I’d like to say that but it wouldn’t be true! -GLM has turned out to be very little more’than a series of monday evening koffeeklatches and that’s ti shame for gay liberation is sure tis hell needed! GLM offered great promise. Gay people, like members of every other oppressed minority, have certain needs. Our society creates a lot .of social, psychological and philosophic problems for us and a majority of gays have their heads really screwed up.

not meeting
The problem is- ‘usually thrown back to us who complain that the fault lies in our own apathy. This is a rather specious’ argument. A great many of us are just not yet capable of doing what our more liberated brothers are. Parrott aside, we sure as hell don’t need gossip. What we need is a program ‘of consciousness raising and unfortunately 4he leadership of GLM does not seem to see this. If GLM at uniwat dies it- will notbe from apathy as such but from the lack of services to those of us ’

who are potential activists but who remain on the sidelines because we are just too screwed up in our-’ selves to be able to be activist. If gay lib doesn’t exist for the J-N purpose of liberating what does it exist for? No one in or out of gay lib is going to liberate me; I know that that’s my job but there are a lot of others beside myself who could sure as hell use some help and advipe and that is just unavailable from uniwat’s gay lib movement ! uniwat

‘reader
in-- bad taste
I considered the letter in the fri_day 26 edition in the feedback column, by bob miller, the editor of the EDSS Deviation, in bad taste to say the least. Admittedly, he has something to gripe about. However, the feedback column of your paper is not the place in which to do it. * I believe his letter. reveals his own frustration at what he considgrs insensible rties at his school, not that of the actual girls involved. He is sorry that his paper and the “great people’s revolution” it planned did not work out. He played a numbers game with vague phrases like “Most of the girls were more -than slightly pissed off .” Good propaganda ; poor logic. He may have a point, but the place to air his views is in his own
paper. Surely, the job of a school paper is ‘to provoke thought-in that particular school. The Deviation, he had said, had taken the-lead in this controversy. What has it done now? It took its ball and bat and went into a higher league. Sounds more like a retreat than a charge to me. He gains nothing by washing the dirty linen in public and then dumping the dirty water on the’ administratipn. He should re-consider his own position before trying to pull strings elsewhere. julian dust, editor-in-chief expression

the campus parking lot debate is rapidly becoming a dead horse, but it has not been thrashed to life yet. if proximity to campus buildings indicates importance or prestige, then the. university’s staff and faculty occupy the upper echelon-but then we knew that before, didn’t we? or did we? the dime-a-shot-lot across university avenue may well become the last student parking lot near this university. the food in village two still remains the coldest and ldwest in nutrition on campus and probably in all of kitchener-Waterloo too. i definitely think the non-existant village two dietitioan should be given the greasy plate award for the most surprising meals around. paper thin roast beef, cold potatoes and a dash of chilly canned corn still remains one of the village’s speciaJs. and the way the comely young dining hall matrons slop the golden grub on the plates is enough to make you want to throw it right back. the fruit they deposit for selection should have been left on the trees. the bananas look like they’ve been pushed along the highway from south america instead of being shipped in crush-proof boxes. i’m sure even a monkey would turn his back on theseyellow delights. a middle-aged man strolls around the food dispersal area making sure the food and service meets some unimaginable standard. for all the good hedoes he may as well be serving the grub with the rest of the servants in his scenario. i know the students there are not pleased with the quality of food so why don’t they voice their disatisfaction? even the food at the south campus dining hall is an improvement. why can’t the students on campus be issue’d i.d. cards (like the ones village two recently handed out) that permit them to eat in any cafeteria on campus. then maybe the different cafeterias could specialize in various foods. if think it’s about time we started to use our imagination and collective voice. back from the holidaying and into the paper-partying for another winter edition we were: in sports-ron smith, peter hopkins (great stuff), pat reid, sally kemp and dennis mcgann. the chevron darkroom saw the likes of gord moore, randy hannigan, dudley Paul. len greener, and carl krasnor. janet and david resided at the entertainment desk; some other people sent in material: paul stuewe, lynn bowers, james harding, dennis mcgann, and spiritually we know that everyone who owes us something was right here with us, right friends? in the news were brute Steele, deanna kaufman, joan Walters, brute murphy, dudley Paul, mart roberts, bill Sheldon and friend, Sharon harris, mart roberts and fast but not yeast, george kaufman.
