Inquest planned

University of Waterloo Waterloo, On tarjo volume 18, number 25 november 25, 1977

Tactical squad shoots man , An inquest will be held into the death of a 57-year old Kitchener worker at the hands of the Waterloo Regional Tactical Squad November 17. The inquest will be held “to clear the air,” says Coroner Dr. W. J. Armstrong, who examined Miloslave (Mike) Milojkovic who was shot down outside his Edwin Street home about 12:30 am November 17. No report has been issued by Dr. Armstrong on his preliminary examination and he told the chevron that details about the death would be withheld pending the inquest. Waterloo Regional Police have released only sketchy details about the death of Milojkovic, who was a spot welder at Canadian Blower, where he had worked since 1963. Until Nov. 19 the police refused to release the name of the tactical squad member who killed Milojkovic with a single shot from a high-power rifle. S. Sgt. Jim Hoffman released only the occurrence report prepared immediately after the death, saying that a police investigation would be conducted into the shooting. Two days after the shooting the police revealed that tactical squad member Fred Barens shot and killed Milojkovic following the report of a domestic dispute at the Miloj-

kovic home. Alec Fletcher, who lives immediately beside the Milojkovic home, told the chevron that he did not believe Milojkovic was given a chance by the tactical squad. “There was no attempt to reason with-him,” insisted Fletcher. “He wasn’t threatening anyone’s life.” Fletcher reported that about 12:13 am Nov. 17 he heard a shot fired as he was watching television in his living room. He went to the window to investigate, saw nothing, then returned to his television program. At 12:30 am he heard a gunshot that “sounded like dynamite under my house.” He rushed outside and saw Milojkovic lying on his own lawn in a white shirt, shot through the heart. He reported that at least five police officers ran up to the dead man, all converging on him at once. “When they came running up they looked like hunters, their faces were blackened and they wore bullet-proof vests.” Fletcher noted that Milojkovic had been carrying a pump-action shotgun, but that the pump handle had not been pulled forward to prepare the gun for firing. Fletcher argues that the police “should have given him some opportunity . . .If they had tried to

reason with him I would have heard it, because my dogs go squirrely at any noise.” Fletcher explained that Milojkovic “didn’t understand much English,” which could have been a factor in the death. The police occurrence report states that police hurried to Milojkovic’s house after receiving two calls just before midnight about a man with a gun. The report says that police heard a shot fired just as they drove up to the Milojkovic house. None of the officers went to the house before beginning the hunt for Milojkovic. Barens reported that he saw a man with a gun and told him to drop it. When the man twice refused to heed his warning and threatened him, he shot the man. Fletcher praised Milojkovic as a responsible and cheerful neighbour who worked at two jobs to support his family. The &man Waterloo Region Police tactical squad began operations only three months ago, and was formed at the instigation of the new regional police chief Syd Brown. S. Sgt. Joe Lederman, head of the tactical squad, could not be contacted for a comment. -larry

.Tenants him ilawyer Faced with a proposed 16 per cent rent increase for next year the Married Students’ Tenant Association plans to hire a lawyer and an accountant to go over the housing administration’s books in search of some bad management. The tenants have been granted $500 by the Grad Club to conduct a preliminary survey, and if it is found they have a case the Grad Club has agreed to give further support. The graduate organisation has also recommended that the federation of students lend a hand. Treasurer and spokesperson for the association Linda Ross told the chevron that they hope to find some “management screw-ups”, which will help them in their negotiations for a reduced rent increase. The tenants are suggesting a six per cent increase in keeping with rent’ review guidelines, even though it seems non-profit housing like the married students complex is not covered under that legislation. If the survey doesn’t turn up some managerial blunders Ross is none the less firm that the association will not agree to a 16 per cent hike. She said “People just don’t have that kind of money.” Last year the tenants paid a 9 per cent increase and 25 per cent in two years Ross says is “way out of line”. A 16 per cent increase would raise the rents to $193 from $166, and to $211 from $182 for the one and two bedroom units respectively . According to warden of residences professor Ron Eydt 16 per cent increase, or “something damn close to it” is necessary. He told the chevron that he doesn’t think the association will find any mismanagement of the buildings. He pointed out that there was no rent increase in for the first five years of the buildings’ existence and now as they enter their seventh year the administration is finding areas which need attention. The university officials have admitted often that the buildings were not very well constructed and now there are some serious problems. The maintenance faucets in the six hundred units need replacing; the grounding

wires are coming off of the stoves rendering them dangerous; the nylon rollers which the windows slide on have been turned to squares and have to be replaced; as do the tiles in most of the bathrooms. According to the university’s Physical Resources Group (PRG) the apartments are in need of $3 11,000 in maintenance this year if they are not to deteriorate even more. In the proposed budget for 1978-79, Eydt has cut this figure by $25,000. But the problems don’t stop there. Apart from the regular maintenance PRG also estimates that there is a need for $300,000 in “catch-up work”. That is work which they haven’t been able to attend to in previous years. That $300,000 doesn’t exist so Eydt is suggesting that the university take $100,000 out of the furniture renewal fund for the apartments so that at least some of the catch-up work can be done. The only two areas which Eydt thinks are negotiable are the maintenance costs and the cable TV. Anything knocked off the maintenance, however, will lead to a deterioration in the building, he said. The situation with the cable TV is that it is presently supplied to each apartment at a contract price of $2.25 per unit per month. The contract is up April 30 1978 and Grand River Cable is asking $4.50 to supply the service after then. Eydt suggests that this item could be eliminated from the budget and individuals could decide if they want to pay for the service. Such a saving, however, would be small and is unlikely to resolve the differences between the administration and the tenants association. Eydt would like to have negotiations completed before Christmas so that he can take a final budget to the Executive Committee of the Board of Governors when it meets Jan 17. Formal notice of the rent would then go out Jan 31. The increase would affect all tenants who take out a new lease on or after May 1, 1978. According to Eydt the other residences on campus will get off lightly next year. He said he doesn’t expect there to be any rent

increase in Minota Hagey residence and only a 3 per cent hike in the villages. -neil

by 16 students The federation lost $1000 on the South Campus Hall pub last Friday, as the band Cueball played to an audience of 16 students. The band cost $800 and after the hall rental of $150 and other expenses such as cleanup have been tallied, the loss will be at least $1000. The 16 -students who attended paid $1.50 each at the door. Entertainment co-ordinator Jim Todd told the chevron that income from the drinks will be negligable. The South Campus Hall pub is budgeted to receive a $2000 subsidy from the federation for the fiscal year 1977-78. Although the pub last Friday consumed half of the subsidy, Todd hopes that the budget will be balanced at the end of the fiscal year next April. Liverpool played at the South Campus Hall to a full house, on November 11, and Todd hopes that today’s Naismith pub (featuring Choir at a cost of $900) will also be successful. Profits from successful pubs will be used to offset losses such as the one incurred last week. Cueball did not appear perturbed at the low attendance at the pub last Friday. They played two full sets of music, conducive to dance but no one decided to glide across the floor. The house lights remained on throughout the evening. The lack of interest in Cueball has been attributed to them not being well known in KitchenerWaterloo. While Cueball played to an audience of 16, Mackenzie (who have performed at UW before) played in the Campus Centre pub to a reasonably-full house. -nick

Not planning

ahead-

A lot is going on in the entertainment world at Waterloo. Last Friday’s South Campus Hall Pub drew 12 people at a loss of about $1000 (see article). Sunday’s coffee house drew approximately 40, thus continuing the losses of this service. The Board of Entertainment in dealing with these problems on Tuesday, has decided that the coffeehouses will be restricted to a “special structure in the winter term. By cutting down on event, co-sponsorship” this weekly service, BENT hopes it can maintain coffeehouses on a break-even basis. The coffeehouse has lost nearly $1,700 over its yearly subsidy of $1,200 already. Dave Assmann, who booked the performers for the Coffeehouse, did not know of the latest move. “ They should have contacted me in terms of planning things out; they don’t seem to be planning ahead”, he said. Assmann says he has many suggestions on the coffeehouse but when he went to two meetings concerning the service, BENT did not show. BENT has also passed a motion switching Friday’s South Campus Hall date to Thursday and making it a twice monthly service. BENT chairperson, Bruce Rorrison explained that this move would end a lot of conflicting pubs and would allow greater time for promotion. He is also thinking of running pubs in conjunction with the different faculty “weeks”. He announced the dates of the pubs as Jan. 12 & 26, Feb. 9 & 23, and March 9 & 23. Patrons coming from the Naismith Classic game can present their ticket stubs and get a 50 percent discount on Friday’s South Campus Hall pub featuring “Choir”. January’s winter Carnival was also discussed. There was talk of allnight movies, ice sculptures, broomball games, cross country skiing, etc. BENT is still open to suggestions. Discussion was moving ahead with Bill Deeks of Administration Services on getting a liquor licence for the ES lounge and for permission to serve food for special events in the Campus Centre. The federation confirmed that a power panel for South Campus Hall will be installed by late December at a cost of $1,600. Renison councillor Larry Smylie attended the meeting demanding information. Near the end of the meeting he stormed out yelling that information was being suppressed. Smylie has a motion on council’s agenda calling for a sub-committee to determine most of what the Board of Entertainment does for the next term. “I do not like council trying to run our business, or us run their business”, said Dave Jennison, SCH co-ordinator. Federation Presid+ent Rick Smit added, “we’re not having any sub-committee run the executive.” Rorrison remarked that “it would make us redundant”. -randy

UW crest might show on jackets The University of Waterloo crest has been absent from items sold at the Campus Shop for some time, and it looks like it might be back on the leather jackets in the near future. At a Senate meeting Monday night, University president Burt Matthews said that, for clothing purposes, he favoured restricting the use of the crests to the expensive university jackets. This follows a talk federation president Rick Smit had with Matthews Nov. 11 and a subsequent memo Smit sent out concerning the crests. Smit requested permission from the administration for the use of the crest on the jackets stressing that it would be reproduced “as close as possible to the standards” laid down. Smit feels he will be successful since “no one has come forth to make a proper proposal” before this. A crackd0w.n started about a year ago, making the use of the crest dependant on strict standards, said Vice-President of Finance and Operations Bruce Gellatly, who is responsible for either accepting or rejecting the crests’ use. “Substandard merchandise” bearing the crest were phased out at the bookstore over a period of time, he said. The crest was used without following the guidelines for many years. When it was removed for the jackets, students were very disappointed and bewildered and according to Rosemary Hawthorne, who works in the campus shop,, they were not happy with the logo which replaced it on the jackets. The crest guidelines state different colour standards (a one or three colour version) and has limits on its

size (at least half an inch high) and quality.. The crest is now copyrighted. . The crest design is three red lions on a gold background with a set of black chevrons on the shield. This is accompanied with the motto Concordia Cum Beritate (in harmony with truth). The issue was raised in Senate by the designer of the crest. It was in relation to a contest being run by the Campus Shop for a new university crest. The -store is having a design-a-crest competition for use on the jackets. It ends Nov. 30 and the design will probably be used for shirts and cotton jackets if use of the crest is okayed for the jacket, said Hawthorne. Matthews claims that the ad-ministration did not limit the use of the crests for the jackets; “the company (which produced the crests) couldn’t match the specifications.” He has turned the question over to Gellatly saying: “I can’t prejudge what Gellatly will say. ” “ I don’t see any great problems.” Matthews is now looking into designing a university logo, separate from the crest, which would recieve wide university usage. The administration’s Bookstore is now using Engineering Society’s logo on some of its products. EngSot is now going ahead with copyright plans for the logo. EngSot president Fraser Cutten says they do not want it to be used on the Bookstore’s t-shirts “which are not the same quality as ours.” EngSoc has also been vocal on regaining the use of the University crest since it feels it is an important piece of identification for a University student. -randy

Faculty paV losing ground Although their salaries have declined in real terms since 1970-71; the Faculty Association will ask the administration only that they maintain the principle the Board of Governors adopted last year that faculty salary scale increases should keep pace with inflation and with increases in other employee groups. Association salary committee chairman Grant Russell says they “don’t have a snowball’s chance in hell” of regaining the lost ground. At a general meeting of the Fa&ulty Association Wednesday afternoon, attended by about 25 members, the major item of business was the “new reality” which the provincial government is imposing on the universities and how it affects faculty salaries. “Based on the salaries we had in 1970-71 we are no where near comparable,” said Russell. Graphs presented on an overhead projector and charts in the latest Faculty Association newsletter show that since 1970-71 local high school teachers and teachers at Conestoga College have experienced a real increase in income while UW faculty on the average have lost. Faculty salaries were compared to statistics for base wage rates for bargaining units with at least 200 Ontario employees. Be-/tween 1970-71 and 1976-77 base wage rates have increased 93.6 percent for all industries, 91.8 percent for education and related occupations, but only 42.3 percent for U-W faculty at the assistant professor floor salary. During the same

Separate

period the consumer price index increased 56 percent. “We’re not fighting for an increase,” said one member, “we’re fighting to stand still.” -Some faculty gave the view that money was not the most important part of their jobs. They said that there was a spirit of dedication motivating the faculty. Others responded that there was a definite limit to the dedication and that it could disappear if the government continued to exploit it by expecting faculty to accept inadequate salary increases. Members considered the three years of restricted funding UW president Burt Matthews predicted last week as only the beginning of a long-term crisis and felt that the real hard times were yet to come. In light of this one member suggested that the faculty hold off as long as possible “making the grand gesture” of a sacrifice, such as calling for no salary increase. One member had suggested the sacrifice as an exercise in “moral leadership” for other sectors of the economy. He received little support. “We have to express to the general population the need to maintain the quality of education,” Russell told the chevron. The meeting did not, however come up with any plan of how to accomplish this. He said that the -main problem was that they were dealing indirectly with the provincial government and were thus forced to put

refundable

pressure on the administration, which doesn’t control how much money comes into the university. He was concerned that this might damage the good relations the faculty has had with the administration over the past years. L When asked about Matthews’ suggestion that everyone might have to work harder, Russell replied “We’re already doing it.” The Faculty association newsletter claims an average increase in workload for professors since 1971 of 16.02 percent. Russell says this figure is based on the student/faculty ratio. Staff Association president Sid Turner, when contacted Wednesday said the association’s concern was that there should be no layoffs and that whatever money there is available should be distributed equitably, if possible allowing those who are substantially set back because of inflation to catch UP. When asked about Matthews’ suggestion to “work harder” he said, “We consider the staff here put in a hard and very fair day’s work now .” Asked about co-operation between the staff and faculty associations he said that in the past there had been some joint executive meetings and that more were planned. “Items .that are of common interest we will work together on,” he said. The staff association will hold its general meeting Monday. -jonathan

fee:

CKMS moves to separation Radio Waterloo (CKMS) is going full speed ahead with plans for separation from the Federation of Students. It was learned Wednesday that they will be circulating a petition for a separate refundable fee on campus in the near future. They are asking for a fee of $2.50 a term. The normal route for a separate fee is via a referendum, but RadWat co-ordinator David Assmann felt that this might pose time problems, and sought an easier method. He contacted Vice President, Finances and Operations Bruce Gellatly last week asking if it could be done by petition. Gellatly submitted a memo to Assman Wednesday approving the idea. He said, however, that the petition must state: a) the amount of the fee, b) where and when it could be refunded, c) that it was not a requirement of registration, and d) that the Board of Governors’ approval “to assess and collect the fee may be withdrawn at any time” and would be, if refunds exceed 50 per cent of the full-time undergraduate students. It further states that 4,000 signatures are required; that the Federation of Students must support

the separate fee, and that CKMS must provide an audited financial statement to the administration every year. A&man believes the 4,000 signatures will be easy to obtain. “We have a lot of volunteers,” he said, “we just need 40 signatures each.” He hopes to have 2,000 before the Christmas break and 2,000 more before January 13, the cut off date. He has drafted a petition to take to council Thursday (yesterday). If it gets passed by council, then the 4,000 signatures are obtained, then it has to be passed at a Board of Governors meeting. Assmann hopes to get it approved at the Feb. 7 BOG meeting. CKMS will then have a separate fee by September, or possibly by May, he said. CKMS must be a separate corporation, according to CRTC rulings. The federation has already accepted this fact, and RadWat is well on its way to accomplishing this end. It therefore must win a separate fee or it will become a corporation without its own funds. Through corporation, CKMS will be linked to the federation only through its Board of Directors. The board consists of 3 council appoin-

tees, 3 members of RadWat, and one federation executive member. The $2.50 a term fee would be about 75 cents more than students. are currently paying. Assman, however, says there will be many extra costs next year. Liability insurance will rise from $180 to $78 1; performing rights fees will be two per cent of the annual budget, paid to two companies; plus he said, there will be an extra $1,000 operating fees for minor things which the federation now pays for. Fees will be available for refund th’e first three weeks of every term at the station’s office. This is not the first time an organization has tried to obtain a separate fee by petition. The Ontario Public Interest Research Group (OPIRG) successfully obtained 4000 signatures in 1972. -randy

From RussiaIn the past the adage oft tossed around goes, “Everyone talks about the weather but no one does anything about it.” Technological advances outlawed by a recently signed international agreement have the capability to fundamentally change our normal weather patterns. Canada has pioneered small scale applications of such modification through ongoing tests in southern Alberta. Grain growers in’this area of Alberta are perennially plagued by thunder storms spawned over the foothills of the Rockies, and which develop hail that destroys their crops.Presently during the summer growing months storms are evaluated by radar analysis and if a storm seems to present a potential for developing hail aircraft “seed” the cloud with silver iodide particles which effectively curtail the cloud’s development. Such small scale applications have been extremely successful at preventing damage. Weather modification on a global scale has been predicted by the late eminent inventor and scientist, Nicola Tesla. Tesla’s pioneering work in America in the early part of this century qualifies him as one of the most intelligent citizens of the twentieth century but his research has been largely ignored in the western hemisphere. Russia has not been so shortsighted and their experiments on the earth’s magnetic aura prove Tesla’s theories of a quarter century ago. tury ago. . Observations throughout the world since October 14, 1976 have seemed to conclude the USSR has two generating stations in Riga and Gomel that have a power emanating ability of around 40 million watts each. Unlike any conventional radio transmitters these stations broadcast magnetic fields primarily. The magnetic pulses range in frequency between four and twenty-six hertz but it should be emphasiz,ed these transmissions are entirely comprised of a magnetic field. Harmonic frequencies were excited by the passage of these magnetic waves resulting in the world-wide communications

with love blackouts of last year. The two transmitters are synchronized in phase by orbiting satellites and the result of the two stations were magnetic standing waves 200 miles wide which extended from the earth’s core out past the ionosp”here. The Russians attempted to establish such a standing wave near their country to influence the growing season. The side effect was the two standing waves along the west and east coasts of North America. These waves were powerful enough in the upper atmosphere to deflect the jet streams. Jet streams are high velocity winds blowing in’ the upper atmosphere which affect fundamentally. the weather at ground level. The recent oil tanker breakup -off Massachusetts might be explained by this augmented magnetic field. Communications investigators found that severe distrubances were predominant in this area and it is conceivable that an oil tanker travelling through such a strong magnetic field might begin to resonate and subsequently fail. After a recent treaty, signed May 18, the emanations from these two stations have become of lower intensity and are not focused towards any one part of the world, as far as s$ientists can presently tell. Their main instrument for the detection of such perturbations in the world’s magnetic field is to obtain a magnetically permeable material (such as iron) in a cylinder 12 inches in diameter and then to wind it with 250,000 turns of number’30 wire. This Schumaan detector, when coupled to a low noise amplifier can sense the passage of magnetic waves. The speed of propagation of the waves is low, it takes approximately 108 minutes for the wave to circle the globe .’ It is possible, according to the theory of Tesla, that the earth’s magnetic field may be harnessed in a similar manner to generate any amount of power. This -power, from the world’s magnetic field, would result from subatomic particle formation within the earth’s core. Thesla, before he died in 1942, had several operating devices exhibiting these principles.

Colloquia

decides

The Middle East is witnessing the formation of a conservative, pro-U.S. bloc that is less worried about Zionism than it is of a Communist movement in the region. These countries - Iran, Jordan, Egypt, the Sudan, and Saudi Arabia - are keen to restore order and tranquility to the region and are thus likely to approach Israel in the manner that Egyptian president Anwar Sadat did. Indeed, Jordan’s King Hussein might well be the next Arab leader to meet with the Israelis. There is evidence of secret meetings having &ken place in recent months between the Jordanians and the Israelis, with talks revolving around a possible Palestinian settlement on the West Bank within a Jordanian federation. These talks, of course, have been conducted without the participation of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). The Middle East - past and present - was the subject of a discussion here last Friday, and at WLU on Tuesday evening. The discussions were particularly timely in view of Sadat’s controversial visit to Jerusalem Saturday, November 19. As part of the History Department’s continuing collo-

mid-east

quia, Wilfrid Knapp of St. Catherine’ s College, Oxford, was here to speak on “The Middle East: Nations, States and Relations Between them - Israel, the Palestinians, and the Oil Companies since 1945.” Knapp is the author of A History of War and Peace 1939-1965, and has published books on France, Tunisia, and northwest Africa. He is currently a visitor at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington D.C., where he is doing research on the Middle East in international relations. Knapp explained that in the past, non-state actors, particularly multinational corporations, often acted like sovereign states in their relations with Middle East governments. This has changed significantly since the “oil revolution” of 1971-72. Since then, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has played a major role. Within OPEC, Saudi Arabia is the dominant member, despite the illusion the Iranians have created of being the major force. In fact, the Shah of Iran was pulling ‘a great con-trick” when he told American reporters in Washington DC recently, “We

have decided to give you a break” (and lower oil prices). Knapp spent some time explaining Zionism and the creation of the state of Israel. Calling Zionism “a peculiar and unusual form of nationalism’ ’ , he pointed out that the Zionist movement sought to colonize an area - Palestine. Knapp added that there were and are many Jews opposed to a Jewish homeland on religious grounds that the creation of Israel by men was contrary to God’s plan. Knapp claimed that contrary to Arab arguments, Israel was not a settler society. This is because “Jews did their own dirty work”, unlike settlers in South Africa, Algeria, etc. When this statement was later challenged, Knapp conceded ‘that there were “variants” of settler society. The creation of the state of lsrael, declared Knapp, upset the tranquility of the Middle East. The various wars in the region have taken their toll. Egypt, for example is in a “desperate situation”. Its economy is in a dismal state and the country is very dependent on Saudi Arabia for money to keep its economy going. The Saudis - who dominate OPEC despite the fact that the Iranians are louder - “attach great

ZA NU /speaker

A speaker from Zimbabwe (Rhodesia), a country in the news currently because of the AngloAmerican peace proposal, will appear on campus tomorrow night in AL105 at 7:30. The speaker, A.M. Chidoda from the Zimbabwe African National Union, will speak on the current situation in Zimbabwe. The event is organised by the Intemational Students Association. ZANU was formed in August of 1963 after various means of peaceful protest over a period of years had failed to persuade the minority settler regime to give the Zimbabwean people independence. The policy of ZANU is “We are our own liberators”, that is, that the Zimbabwean people must win genuine independence by armed struggle. In September of 1976 ZANU united with another liberation organisation to form the Patriotic Front. This was done to present a single voice to the Geneva conference and to help mobilize all the Zimbabweans who believe in armed struggle. Anglo-American

proposal

calls for surrender of the Ian Smith regime to a British administrator for a six-month transition period. During the transition period the administrator would set up the country’s electoral system on the principle of “one man, one vote”. This is supposed to give the country over to the Zimbabwean people since they number six million while the settler minority numbers only 273,000. ZANU, however, rejects this because the administrator will have extensive powers during the transition period while they will be unable to participate, except to run in the elections at the end of the si Xmonth period. The administrator will be responsible for legislation, the civil service, and appointment of judges. ZANU charges that the British are trying to set up a neo-colonial government and not turn the country over to the Zimbabwean people. It finds especially objectionable the proposals for a ceasefire, under which it would be required to

the British and Americans have promised $1.5 billion in what they call the “Zimbabwe Development Fund”. ZANU has expressed suspicion over this promise of foreign-controlled money. At last report the Smith regime had become ineffective in a number of areas, finding itself unable to run the schools or the district commissions. The forces of the Patriotic Front have been working from the Northeast, East, and Southeast, moving westward and are moving towards the urban areas, according to ZANU. ZANU claims the support of the masses, it says it is from the masses that it receives food, shelter and information on the movements of the Smith regime’s troops. Chidoda was last in KW during the summer where he was well received and was found to be an entertaining speaker.

importance to order in international affairs, especially in the Middle East”, said Knapp. In his rapprochement with the Israelis, Sadat has the support of Saudi Arabia, Knapp cominued, the late King Feisal was passionately anti-Zionist, “but not-the new boys”. Their main worry is Communism. Following Knapp’s talk, the point was made that the sources of the regional tensions lie not only in Zionism and Arab nationalism, as emphasized by Knapp, but in “meddling by western powers”. Knapp then agreed with the observation that the Middle East problem came out of imperialist conflict.

Greenpeacers \ arrested Twelve members and friends of the Greenpeace organization were found guilty of trespassing at the Darlington nuclear power plant site after a trial this Wednesday in Toronto. Two of those charged, John Bennett and Doug Saundars, were at UW on Tuesday to discuss energy conservation at a forum sponsored by the Federation of Students for Energy Week (See article next week). John Bennett, in an interview with CKMS, said the 12 were arrested and carried off the site Oct. 1 shortly after they began their occupation. The group was protesting the use of muclear power, and the lack of input from the people of Bowmanville. The Darlington reactor will be the largest in the world when it is completed in 1985, yet there was no environmental assessment done. “There was no other avenue of protest. no other a\‘enue of appeal,” said Bennett, whose group, Greenpeace. iidvocates civil dis-

obedience. All twelve pleaded “not guilty”. They felt they had a “reasonable supposition for being on a piece of which under- the law ground” would effectively mean they were not irespassing. To Bennett it was a moral issue, “protecting the health and welfare of the future”. The judge ruled,’ however, that there was no “immediate” reason for being on the site. _ The penalty was $15 plus costs, or three days in jail. Bennett felt the judge didn’t want to make an ex-J ample of them, and was therefore lenient. It’s an individual decision as to which sentence each member takes, said Bennett, but “several members will surrender themselves to incarceration in the near future . ” He says there are plans for a second occupation of the site in late April or early May. Greenpeace has already 30-35 committments and hopes to attract 100.

There will be a free wine at the Grad Club for all members who attend the Annual General Meeting of the Grad Club Thursday. December 1, but there was some objection to this at the Board of Directors meeting November 16. David Carter opposed the motion because he felt “people would be attracted to the General Meeting Just for the party” and that “many people might want to rush through Impbrtant discussions” just to get to the liquor afterwards. He said that this had happened at the annual meeting last-year and should not be encouraged.

trol of the Rent Review Board, the residents want to know what legal recourse they.might have for fighting the increase. They also want an auditor to look at the management ofthe budget by the University.

Harry Parrott’s decision to cut graduates off from grant assistance under the OSAP program is one of the most vicious attacks he has made on graduate students but it is not the only one. Below David Carter, chevron staffer and member of the Graduate Board of Directors, gives a brief history of cutbacks in graduate funding and urges that graduates take a strong stand in opposition to Parrott at the upcoming Annual General Meeting of the Grad Club, Thursday, December 7.

Second-Language Monitor Program September 1978-May 1979 This program allows university-level students in Canada to work part-time as second-language monitors while studying full-time, usually in a province other than their own. At least 800 students will receive a minimum of $3,000 each for nine months of participation. In addition, travel expenses for one return trip between the student’s province of residence and the host province will be reimbursed. This program is financed by the Department of the Secretary of State. The number of French-language and/or English-language monitors accepted by a host province will be determined according to the particular needs of that province.

Life is now

The recent decision of Harry Parrott, Minister of Colleges and Universities, to cut all graduates off from OSAP grant assistance was a criminal attack on graduate student interests. With one harsh blow, Parrott effectively denied that the Province had any responsibility to fund graduates who are in real financial need. In 1976-77, 20 per cent of the graduates at Waterloo and over twice that percentage in the Arts and HKLS Faculties were dependent on OSAP. However, this program of cutting back on those who are in greatest need was not introduced this year. The changes in OSAP are only the most recent and severe attacks the government has levelled against the graduates. Originally the government simply decreased its operational funding to the universities and then let them decide on how to redistribute their own funds. Between 1971-72 and 1975-76 the BIU’s (Basic Income Units - operational grants on a per student basis) were increased from $1730 to $2111 - about half the level of inflation. The 1974-75 year, however, was probably a more fundamental turning point for the cutbacks in graduate funding. In 1974-75, in an amazingly well-coordinated effort between federal, provincial, and campus administrations, the old policy of attempting to fund graduate students who were in real need of financial assistance was replaced by a policy of funding graduate students on the basis of merit. Virtually every major government scholarship and grant program was, over a three year period, overhauled so that the number of stipends given out was greatly decreased and the value of the stipends were increased well above the rate of inflation. The net effect was to decrease the total amount of money that went into these programs while increasing the aid that fewer and fewer students with exceptionally high marks were to receive. In an attempt to encourage the same policy in the expenditure of the university’s own funds for graduate student support, the government greatly increased the maximum permissible payments for Teaching Assistantships and Research Assistantships. In 1974 the Ontario Government announced . two major changes in graduate funding. The Ontario Graduate Fellowship, disbursed on the basis of need, was transformed into the Ontario Graduate Scholoarship (OGS), a prestige award for high academic standing. Further to this, the government increased the size of the stipend from $2,250 to $2,400 plus tuition, and a trend was set in motion which would bring the size of the award up to $4,350 for 1977-78. There was, however, no strain on the budget. The number of awards was gradually eroded from its high mark of 2,751 in 1969-70 to only 945 today. Parrott qualifies this and points out that the number of grants will be increased to 1200 next year. But this token increase in ‘merit’ benefits hardly makes up for the drastic action of cutting graduates off OSAP grant assistance. In 1974-75 the government also allowed the universities to raise the maximum salaries for TA’s from $2,400 to $3,000 per annum. (This followed an increase from $1,800 in 1973-74 and was to be boosted once more in 1976-77 to $1,650 per term.) A similar policy was initiated at the federal level. Between 1973-74 and 1977-78 the stipend for the Canada Council doctoral fellowship has increased from $3,500 to $6,000, while the number of awards given out has decreased from 1955 to 1312. The National Research Council postgraduate awards have increased from $4,050 in 1973-74 to $6,000 this year, while the number of awards given out has decreased

from 1891 in 1973-74 to 1640 last year. (NRC has not yet decided on its quota of awards for 1977-78.) To top it all off, NRC announced in 1974 that the universities could raise their monthly stipends to RA’s by 33 per cent, from $280 to $375. The overall picture is one of massive decreases in graduate funding. This is counter-

balanced only by major increases in the merit grants which fewer and fewer graduates have received. Graduate students who did non ‘merit’ stipends from the scholarship and grant programs, or graduates who did not have salaried positions in the universities were to suffer. The University of Waterloo administration didn’t miss its cue. Between the early months of 1974 and the fall of the same year the priorities for graduate support were completely reorientated. As late as May 1974 the administration was still considering plans to give all graduate students at the university a guaranteed minimum amount of support. The newly formed Advisory Committee on Graduate Student Support (a body composed of three graduate and four administrative representatives) had made a recommendation that a guaranteed annual income be given to all full-time graduates on campus. The committee had investigated graduate incomes and found that 28 of 840 full-time graduates registered for the full three terms in 1971-72 and 49 of the 877 in the same sample in 1972-73 had received no income from any academic source.%%ther, it found that 16 per cent of those graduates with an income in 1971-72 had made less than $2000 over the year. In an. attempt to deal with these inequities the committee recommended the introduction of a guaranteed annual income of $2,400 for Ph.D.s and $1,800 for M.A.s as levels “below which it was not realistic to expect students to be able to support themselves even though he/she were single and had only minimal needs”. The recommendations never did see the light of day, but it was not for lack of funds. It

Therefore, in the period of a few short months the whole emphasis on graduate student support had been transformed from a policy of providing “all graduate students” with an income based on “need” into a policy which would provide the “large majority” of graduate students with a “reasonable” income.

In the most recent report on graduate student support it was calculated that 236 of the 1859 graduates ( 12.6 per cent) registered in the period January 1976 to August 1977 had no income from any academic source.

The deans were afraid that if they convinced the government to rescind its decision on OSAP, the result might only be a trade off which would decrease the number of Ontario Graduate Scholarships given out.

The recent decisions of the administration to raise the rent at Married Student’s Residence by 16.3 per cent, following a 9 per cent increase last year, the municipality’s decision to cut graduate students off from daycare assistance, and the Ontario government’s decision to raise tuition $50 a term for Canadian students plus a tripling of fees for visa students have all increased these students’ cost of living at a rate higher than inflation.

situation. Now with the University facing a fairly tight financial situation, we can expect even less out of our administrators.

Graduate students share a major concern with the undergraduates, welfare recipients, hospital workers, the unemployed, etc. We are all at the butt ‘end of the government’s policy of cutbacks. It doesn’t matter what kind of rubric they give it - the ‘new reality’, ‘fiscal responsibility’, or ‘living beyond our means’ - the end product is the same. Those who can least afford it, those in real need, are being made to pay while the government puts more and more money into corporate pockets through capital depreciation allowances, supposed ‘make work projects’, and outright gifts such as the one given to Syncrude. The problem for the graduates originates with the cutback policy of the Ontario govq-nment. In particular the problem this year is with Parrott’s decision to deny any responsiblity for graduates in financial need. During the Annual General Meeting of the Grad Club, Thursday, December 1, there will be a discussion on the new OSAP proposals. Graduates should take this opportunity to . come out to the meeting in large numbers and adopt a strong motion condemning the Provincial Government for its totally regressive initiatives in student aid, and to discuss what ~ other actions can be taken to stop this government before it goes any further. There is every indication that Parrott will go much further in his cutback program. He has already launched two massive attacks on the students. First, he hit the foreign students with the tripling of their fees. Next, he withdrew the OSAP grants from the graduates. What does he have up his sleeve for the undergraduates next year? Two weeks ago, at an OFS ‘mass rally’ on Queen’s Park, Parrott was asked if the cutbacks in education were going to continue. And his smug response was simply: “Well I guess you’ll just have to wait and see.” Remember, the Henderson Report which recommended an increase in tuition fees of 65 per cent has not yet been fully implemented. / Aavid carter

EL0 not extragalactic Rush,

Electric Light Orchestra, Out of the Blue EL0 have gone through a style change on each of their last three albums, from the symphonic strains of “Eldorado” through the light pop on “Face The Music” to the 60’s sound on “A New World Record”. I had anticipated that, on this one, they would either go blatantly commercial or mystically extra-galactic. The cover seemed to bear the latter out, a stunning internal and external view of a space station shaped like their new logo. And yet, inside was not only a poster, but (shades of Steve Miller!) a cardboard pop-out sheet that makes your own personal EL0 spaceship. Which way would the pendulum swing?

KITCHENER, ONTARIO

As it turns out, neither. The only concept this album manages to put across is transience. One can’t even cull a decent single album from this, contrary to the usual properties of mediocre doubles. The sound is vaguely reminiscent of music I’used to hear on CFRA on winter mornings ten years ago, with riffs ripped off from such diverse people as the Beatles, the BeeGees, the Beach Boys, George Gershwin, and David Bowie, and words contributing to the general decline of meaningful lyrics in modern music. Ail of which shows that EL0 still has no musical identity of their own, seemingly unable to stick to one style for even the length of one song (none of which exceed 5 I /2 minutes). To be fair, they do manage to click on a few songs, notably “Sweet Talkin’ Woman” and the side-long “Concerto for a Rainy Day”. But a present record prices, this album is only for dogmatic EL0 fans.

A Farewell

To Kings

Starting out as a Led Zeppelin imitation, Rush has rapidly risen to . become one of Canada’s best bands. This album not only extends their capabilities into a new dimension, but ought to start making some impression on the hulking mass to the south of us. Put simply, this is an excellent album. A Mini-Moog and bass synthesizer have been added to theii- instrumentation so that Geddy Lee can do three things at once. This will initially shock heavy-metal purists, but Lee is just good enough , on keyboards to provide the neces- ’ sary effects without becoming overbearing. Lifeson’s guitar work is superb, the acoustic touches almost obliterating the memory of their disastrous “Caress of Steel” experiment. Peart, the studious drummer who the other two highschool dropouts call “Professor”, has become quite accomplished in his lyrics, while outdoing himself on. percussion. In addition to some intelligent rock ‘n roll, this album also reverses the Star-Wars-inspired flood of cartoon science-fiction “music” that bands like Styx and Prism have been foisting on us, with “Xanadu”. a tale of Coleridge’s mystical city, and “Cygnus X-1” 7 concerning a voyage to the site of the blat k hole astronomers have recently discovered. Both songs are over ten minutes long, with numerous thematic changes: a style almost unthink\ able for the earlier Rush. T The musical and intellectual scope of this album earns Rush the international stature they so richly deserve. Their concert in Town on December 28 ought to be a great end to an all-too-barren musical year.

UW poets show their art In the distinctly bourgeois setting of the Humanities. faculty common room, about 40 distinctly bourgeois-looking people sat last Saturday and heard four UW poets recite some of their works. -Imported beer at the inflated price of $1.25 per bottle confirmed my suspicion that the impoverished brand of student was not expected. Indeed, I recognized about half of the audience as faculty, staff or graduate students. Even if one does without the booze (a good object for concentrating on during the duller moments of the reading), the admission price of $2 is still there to deter the thrifty student. The Creative Arts Board will probably break even on this event, and it was a success in that the room was nearly filled to capacity. But the reading might have drawn more people if the admission charge was nominal, say 50 cents. Even if a deficit was incurred, it would be money well spent in the interests of making the arts accessible to all students - rich or poor. The reading was opened by Rienzi Cruz, a UW librarian. Cruz’s work is interesting to a -point, but as the reading progressed he began to sound monotonous. Cruz read poems on the theme of the immigrant. He came to Canada

Thomas’ poetry seems characterized by sound rather than content; I doubt that the layman would appreciate his poetry on paper, although his reading style was passable. I must agree, however, with a member of the audience who remarked to me that his poetry is “mediocre stuff’ ’ . Nancy-Lou Patterson was the star of the evening, and retained my attention throughout her reading.

Strangely, the audience thinned out just prior to his reading which is unfortunate because he proved to be more interesting than either of the first two poets. Brien’s poems are powerful in their content, in sharp contrast to those of Thomas. Although Brien’s reading style leaves something to be desired (he tends to a monotone at times), his reading was impressive and the following excerpt from his poem “A Culinary Experience” is an example of his poetic skill: One day, Rambo threw two lobsters live into a narrow metal pot for a slow day. One landed atop the other and they began a vicious battle for a presupposed supremacy. As the water became hotter, each imagined the other responsible for his tortures and new voice; More bitter and purposeful grew their hatred.

Perhaps it was the rejection of her first lover, the sexist and egotistical professor. It may even have been caused by the trauma of, as a child, spending a year and two days in a body cast after spinal surgery. In any case, Theresa chooses to reject virtually everyone in her search for the perfee “one night stand”.

Warriors. split The Warriors dropped their opening game 65 to 106 to Mercyhurst from’ Penn. Mercyhurst . played a man on man defence which forced the Warriors to take popr shots and-turn over the ball. The Warriors were 20/48 42 percent from the floor while Mercyhurst were 43/76 57 percent. The Warriors are capable of handling this type of defence but’they came out cold and generally played a bad game. Credit should go to the Warrior fans there, who never got on the team’s back and even cheered them on in the second half when they were down by 20 points. Pete Greenway showed he was excellent, from the line hitting 7/8. Don McCrea said he was impressed by the poise Brian Ray, a freshman, showed .’

In the second game Laurier defeated Univ. of Michigan 97 to 8 1. Laurier was defeated in the final the next day by Mercyhurst. The Warriors defeated Univ. of’ Mich in the conholation final 96163. The Warriors were quite impressive in this game. Seymour Hadwen made up for the previous game with his shooting, as did-John Freund who is a great shooter if given time to set up. The Warriors also proved they can handle a press very well. The Warriors led at half time 48-37. In the second half the Warriors seemed to run the American team down. The lead gave the Warriors an opportunity to go to the bench and they pu!led it away *for the team. The final score was Waterloo 96, Unit of Mich 63. -andrew

The Warrior ‘“A’ team placed third in 22 teams to take the bronze medallions with a time of 64:14. The team was Tom Boone, Howard Saunders, Ray Costello and Paul Barron. Warriors Terry Novak, Gary Crossley and Keith MacKay teamed up for the ‘KitchenerWaterloo TC team and placed 1 lth overall. The Warrior ‘B’ team was 16th and included Palaniappan, Tom Fitzgerald, Garth Jones and Greg Kay. A Waterloo faculty team was also competing in the open men’s race. The team of Ian Williams, Jay Thompson,Ian ‘the Aussie’ and Rob Brown was 14th. The open women’s race was won -by Mississauga TC in a time of 36: 59 with Georgetown 2nd in 38: 56 and WCAAA third in 40:03.

The 107 wrestlers, in 12 weight divisions, representing 11 major Ontario university teams, plus the Etobicoke club (E.A.W.C.), provided an exciting afternoon. Amid the grunts and groans of competing wrestlers (and the fans!), the warriors emerged with 4 major place winners. In the 1181b. class, Maldwin Cooper denied Dave Gordon (a Canadian Champion) an easy win, subsequentjy struggling successfully to 3rd place. In the Heavyweight division (2201bs. and over), the 2431b. Etobicoke Giant,

Clive Thurston, was defeated by our 1921b. Mark Winter. Andy Riopel captured 2nd place over Geier of Western, in the 158lb. weight division and Guy Milton grappled to 2nd. place, winning 5 of his 6 bouts, in this highly competitive weight class.

Free counselling. No effect on low medical fee. _ Free pregnancy tests. 3 hour clinic stay.

Bilhright

not wto-L I Thank you for the opportunity to answer Mr. Gourlay’s questions about Birthright. Birthright and Right to Life are two distinct and entirely separate organizations. Birthright is a volunteer organization which offers the pregnant woman friendly support and practical assistance throughout her pregnancy. We assist the woman who has decided td have her baby. Some of our services include free pregnancy tests, medical assistance, rides to the doctor’s office, counselling, housing, legal aid, maternity and baby clothing. But most of all, Birthright provides someone who is as near as a telephone, who cares about the woman and her baby, who will listen to her problems and help her work out a solution for them. Birthright’s services are confidential, non-judgemental and unpressured. The Right to Life is involved in a different aspect of the pro-life movement. The work of the Right to Life is educative. They provide information, and speakers about the problem of abortion. Dr. Hart Bezner is a very able Right to Life speaker. Concerning the question about ectopic pregnancy (the development of an embryo outside the uterus), I’m sorry but Birthright has no official policy. Ectopic pregnancies are a pathological condition and are not the concern of Birthright. Your question about ectopic pregnancies would perhaps be better answered by a medical doctor. We would like to invite any student who is interested in the work of Birthright to visit our office on 50 Church Street, Kitchener. The office is open Monday through Friday, 9:30-11:30 AM, 1:30-3:30 PM, and 7-9 PM. The volunteers would be pleased to see you and answer any questions you may have. You can also reach the Birthright office by phoning 579-3990. May I bring to your attention the Birthright ad which appears regularly in the classified section of the chevron. Mary De Marco Birthright Publicity Coordinator

Arguments inaccurate

In reply to Laurie Gourlay’s letter of Nov. 11. First, let me say that I found the grandiloquence of your letter very entertaining; however, the fact that many of your arguments were confused and inaccurate took much away from the elegance of your rhetoric. In your letter you called my arguments “subjective” no less than five times, and suggested that there were “discl;epancies, loopholes, contradictions and anomalies? ’ in my arguments. You seemed to take delight in calling me names and even implied that I was somewhat psychotic (denying reality). However, I assure you that I am in no way offended, for I realize that pro-abortionists must resort to name-calling since they have no facts on which to base their arguments, and therefore you did the only thing possible in your position. I have done a lot of research on the topic of abortion, including extensive reading, attending seve,ral conferences and even witnessing a case in which a woman who was not even pregnant was given an appointment for an abortion. Every argument that I have made can be supported; your arguments, I’m afraid, are grounded, not in fact but in “subjective opinion”, and I challenge you to prove me wrong. Let me give you several examples of the unsoundness of your arguments. You state near the end of your letter that if I wish to obtain, “cold, hard facts” about abortion that I would do well to read the Birth Control Handbook. I did, in fact pick up a copy of this pamphlet, and ilpon investigating the source of it’s publication discovered that it was written by two pro-abortionist university students from Montreal. The editors seem to be very objective when speaking of birth control methods, but become very opinionated and subjective when dealing

with the isjue of abortion. The book fails to mention all of the dangers of abortion, although it does state some of the complications and immediate after-effects. It says nothing about the possible long-term effects that can result, such as sterility, future miscarraiges, brain and lung emboli, etc. It does not mention the fact that there is a 400% increase in the risk of ectopic pregnancies following ‘abortion, or that there is a 4m higher risk of premature births in future pregnanciks. If such important facts are left out of a book that primarily seeks to inform the public, how can one accept it with complete trust? Moreover, the book fails to mention that up-to-date statistics from Canada, United States, Sweden, Denmark, Japan and a host of other countries confirm that having an abortion is less than half as safe as going full-term. A book that prints only material that is in harmony with the editor’s own personal opinions certainly cannot be used as a reference book by anyone who is at all serious about the issue of abortion. If this handbook has indeed been your source of information, it is easy to see why many of your arguments are inaccurate and misguided. , A second major error that you make in your argument is that you call Dr. Bezner a lectuer for “Birth Right”. Dr. Bezner is not, nor ever has been a lecturer for Birthright. Firstly, Dr. Bezner is in no way connected with Birthright, and secondly, Birthright has no lecturers. It iS primarily a service organization which provides practical aid to pregnant women in destress, women who have decided to have their babies. Moreover, you even misspell the name of the organization, an error which could be corrected merely by looking at the Birthright ad in another section of this issue. Simple errors like this reaffirm my belief in the instability of your position. Moving on, you say that you challenged Dr. De Marco on the issue of the contradiction of the “Birth Right policy” regarding ectopic pregnancies. As I have mentioned, Birthright is a service organization; as such it has no policies regarding ectopic pregnancies. It would be difficult to have inconsistencies in a non-existant policy, would it not? Later, you say that to refer to a fetus as being an unborn child is “emotional claptrap’ ’ since only fetuses are aborted, not unborn children. On page sixteen of the Birth Control Handbook (which I read at your suggestion) it states that “part of the blastocyst soon develops into the ,embryo which eventually becomes the fetus (‘unborn baby)“. Even the book that you recommend so highly knows that a fetus is an unborn child. Also, quick references to a dictionary will show that “fetus” is a Latin word meaning “unborn vertebrate, or unborn child”. Moreover, what is fetology butthe study of the unborn infant? So my arguments are merely “subjective assertions” are they, Mr. Gourlay? I would suggest that you get your facts straight before you turn to such assertions. i/ It is still disputed, as you say, that human life begins at conception. However, there is enough evidence to show that life does begin at this time to convince me that this is true. The First International Conference on Abortion held in Washington in 1967 stated that what exists is definitely human life. This conference was attended by doctors, biochemists, pro?essors of obstetrics and gynecology, genetricists, etc. Also, the World Medical Association promises that it “will maintain the utmost respect for human life from the moment of conception”. Further, Dr. Nathanson, the former director of the Centre for Reproduction and Sexual Health in New York says that “abortion must be seen as the interrupting of a process that would otherwise have produced a citizen of the world. Denial of this reality is the crassest kind of moral evasiveness.” There are makly , many more examples that I could give, but space does not permit it. However, all that is really necessary is for you to open any up to date anatomy book and you’ll be given the same information. You make assertions and judgements about things you obviously know little about several times in your letter., For example, you refer to the inconsistency of the Right to

Life’ s belief regarding ec topic pregnancies . What you fail to realize i$ that there are both indirect and direct abortions. An ectopic pregnancy (as you say) may jeopardize the life or health of the mother. If the unborn child dies when an attempt is being made to save the mother, no wrong has been committed for there has been no direct attack made on the life of the child. But to inject saline solutions which poison the child, or to use a suction apparatus which pulls the baby apart - these surely are definite attacks on the child, and cannot be sanctioned. You justify abortions when the mother’s life is endangered and this is very commendable; however, later you condemn the Right ‘to Life organization for not giving all of the alternatives to “unplanned pregnacies’ ’ . Later you say that all that is really needed for a woman to get an abortion is a convincing story to give to her doctor. These inconsistencies prove (to me at least) that your true view is that if a pregnancy would provide an inconvenience for the mother, then it should be ended. I thank you for your suggestion that the Right to Life people “seriously and objectively look into the entire issue of abortion and judge the facts for (themselves). You, unfortunately are several years too late, for we have been doing just as you say for a long time. We have looked at the issue and, seeing the facts as they are, have tried to maki a serious attempt to inform others of the dangers of abortion. It is our belief and hope that when women begin to realize,,what it is that they are doing to themselves and to the child growing within them, that they will decide to give life a chance. I invite you, Mr. Gourlay, to visit our office at 91 Frederick St.; we’ll be glad to help you in any way possible. Patricia Tusch

pseudonym is just as reprehensible as it is with individuals. How is the public to know that all of these purportedly different organizations are not in fact one and the same, or even the’same individual for that matter? As a recent example, consider the remarkable stylistic similarities between the two letters denouncing the K.F. Gauss Foundation in the November 1’1 issue. One letter was signed by a group of individuals, while the other letter was signed by the International Students Association. I Suppose the AIA could claim that they are subject to political persecution by the RCMP, and hence must keep their membership secret. My question to them is this: “Why should any of us take any of you seriously, when you claim to be committed social revolutionaries and yet lack the integrity to stand up as real human beings and be counted?” Many people admired the civil rights activists in the United States in the 1960’s precisely because of their willingness to go to jail for what they believed. Furthermore, even if you are as persecuted by the RCMP as you claim to be, what better time than now - when the RCMP is widely viewed as a villain and a subverter of civil rights - to honestly and forthrightly state your case? In short, I feel that until such groups as the AIA are prepared to star@ up in person for their views, their rabid style of character assassination has no place in the student newspaper at UW. The Canadian Students Organization Dave Baker, Man-Environment Lettitor The chevron policy is that no racist or sexist letters should be printed. Letters considered dubious in this regard are discussed by staff .and voted on. To date no letter has been censored. The Canadian Students Organization????

Standing UL) Feedback to opinions going down I

I have two suggestions to make concerning policies of the chevron, specifically with regards to the Feedback section. First, I understand that all letters to the editor are not published automatically, and that letters which are of a “racist” or a “fascist” nature fall into this category. While I am sure most students agree that hate letters from overt bigots need not be printed, the definition of what constitutes “fascist” propaganda is at least problematical. Also, racism is a sensitive issue these days, and people are often accused of it even when their words are subject to less pejorative interpretations. Therefore, I feel that in the interests of good journalism, the editorial criteria for non-publication of letters on the basis of “racist” or “fascist” content should be clearly spelled out in the form of definitions of these two terms. Second, I am concerned over the number of letters appearing in Feedback signed by groups or organizations. I am aware of the chevron’s policy of publishing letters under pseudonyms provided that the editor is furnished with the real name of the author. This editorial discretion would seem to be well advised in certain (undoubtedly exceptional) circumstances. For example, when a person wishes to publish a letter of an unusually personal and sensitive nature which is of benefit to students in general, he should be allowed anonymity. In the case of ordinary political or social comment however, the use of pseudonyms is indefensible. Anyone without the courage to attach his own real name to his opinions does not warrant serious attention. A letter expressing the collective opinion of say, fifty people, need not have the entire list of names printed along with it. However, joint statements of groups whose membership is secret is another matter. I am thinking specifically of the AntiImperialist Alliance, who have consistently refused to declare who their members are, or even how many there are. Publishing politiGal opinion, and even worse, invective and character assassination, under a collective

I am most disturbed by a number of letters to your feedback section in the last few weeks. The letters I am referring to express nothing but blind hate and in no way indicate their writers’ interest in thy wellbeing of people in Canada or anywhere in the world. Surely if one wants to engage in debate, one ought to be prepared to offer facts or at least give reasons for one’s opinions. To debase Mao Tse-tung in the face of the real facts is very distasteful and unprincipled. I urge the chevron staff to reconsider its policy of printing all and every letter it receives. Possibly the staff could vote on letters in the same way it votes on other contributions. I am confident that not only the chevron staff but also most if not all students object strongly to the destruction of the chevron’s feedback section by less than a handful of persons. D. Chan. lettitor: I too have noticed this degredation of feedback. However, every student has the right to submit letters despite how poor in quality and taste they may be. The staff does exercise the right to hold back letters of questionable origin or that exhibit racist or sexist attitudes in order to present them at a future staff meeting.

cians treading on each other in the rush to propose the motion for its repeal. I do not see this occuring, I can only conclude that, either the majority of Canadians do not care, or that the majority of Canadians support the law. I can see an immediate objection to this. In your letter you make this referance to Mill’s essay, “there is a limit to the legitimate interferance of collective opinion with individual independence ; . . . ’ ’ . I have only two remarks, both are questions; define the limit, failing this who is to set the limit? I should now like to move to your point on justice. Jtistice (non-legal justice) is an arbitray thing, what you percieve as just is not necessarily my perception, who’s perception of justice is to preveil? The argument may be extended to society as a whole, when two factions of society percieve justice in a different way who’s opinion is to preveil, the majority’s? If so, then this immediatly raises the qestion of collective interference, the limit to which Mill does not define. If we do not have rules on who’s opinion takes precedence then we can have no law. Can you define, absolutly, what is, and what is not, just? Can you define, absolutly , what is, and what is not, right? Failing this, who’s opinion is to take precedence? I use these questions to illustrate the fact that we need a common standard by which to judge the populace. This stanard, I submit, is the law. The law is used to determin what is acceptable conduct. The law is not designed to limit freedom it is designed to preserve it, or as John Locke once wrote “The end of the law, is, not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom.. .for liberty is to be frti from restraint and violence from others; whic.h cannot be where there is no law.. .” Mill acknowledges the right of society to protect itself by means of laws. Admittedly he states they may only be applied when harm is rendered upon society, but on who’s definition of harm do we work, Mill’s? People do not agree on what is harmful; is this harm limited to direct physical harm, or can it include psychological and economic harm? The law on Cannabis exists because-the majority of Canadians want it to exist. They feel justified in imposing this restriction, theyJee1 they are protecting society. Until the limit to collective interference is stated and accepted, then majority rule is the only plausible solution. I find it difficult to believe that it is ever possible to obtain a unanimous decision on any thing. In your letter you state, “Also, I wish to point out to you that I do not claim to be entitled to the right to outside bf the law if the law is just.” I put this question to you sir, by who’s definition of what is just do you intend to judge these law’s? Are you going to&judge them on your own definition of what is just? If the answer to these questions is in the affirmative, then are you suggesting selective disobedience against the laws that do not in particular suite people? If it is in the negative, kindly explain your remark. I now move to your statement “I am most disterbed that I am not allowed the right to live my life as I see fit, so long as I do not infringe on the right of everyone else to do Does not the villager have an likewise.” equal right to live as he pleases? Did you consider that you may be infringing that right? This brings me to a point, both the villager and yourself have equal rights to live as you please (so you state) then in a case of conflict, such as this one, who’s lifestyle is to take precedence ? You may assert that the majority of students did not mind, however this again brings up Mill’s limit to collective interference. I am now moving on to freedom. Abraham Lincoln once wrote “We all declare for liberty: but in using the same word we do not mean the same thing.. .“. You percieve freedom as Mill does, others may not however, who is to say that your opinion takes precedence over your opponents? You maintain that you should be ayowed your freedom, yet sir you can never be free (even within Mill’s limits) to illustrate this

point I quote from Dr. J. MacMurray’s lecture on “The relativity of freedom”. Here then is the paradox of freedom. We are free to choose between freedom and secrity. This choice is not voluntary nor is it once and for all. It is compulsory, and it is perpetually recurrent. ” Now returning to the real world, I think you will agree that the state of your freedom (like it or not) is summed up by this quote (the above source) “No man can compass his own freedom for himself. He must accept it as a free gift from others; and if they will not give it to him he cannot have it”. You may well subscribe to Mill’s philosophy, however until such a time when everbody else joins you, you will never have your freedom. ” I have suggested we cannot desire what we know to be impossible.” (source as above). You would + well to keep, this in mind sir, and take whatever liberty society grants you in the hope that someday peoples freedom will approach Mill’s level. “liberty carries with it a responsibility”, is a quote you have taken from my last letter. You go on to ask several questions, my answer follows. You are responsible to the Crown. The law is derived from the Crown, the Crown derives its power from the people. I should like to make some futher remarks on the law and freedom. Allowing ourselves to discuss actuality; I should like to point out that if it were not for the law you would have no freedom. Your ‘freedom’ would be wholly dependent upon your physical ability to defend it. Until the coming of the folowing document, ‘freemen’ did not possess freedom. However, upon the signing of the Magna Carta, by King John on the 15th of June 1215, there was established a link between liberty an the law which has never been broken: “Johannes Dei gratia rex Anglie, dominus Hibernie, dux Normannie et Aquitannie, et comes Andegravie.. .(chapter 2) concessimus eciam OMNIBUS LIBERIS HOMINIBUS regni nostri, pro nobis et heredibus nostris in perpetuum, OMNES LIBERTATES SUBSCRIPTAS, habendas et tenendas eis et heredibus suis, de nobis et heredibus notris.. . . .NULLUS LIBER HOMO CAPATUR VEL IMPRISONETUR, aut disseisiatur, aut utlagetur, aut exuletur, aut aliquo modo destruatur, net super eum ibimus, net super eum mittemus, NISI PER LEGALE JUDICIUM PARIUM SUORUM VEL PER LEGEM TERR.” from that day your liberty has been protected by the law. This is by no means an isolated document for example; article 66 of the French constitution (for the 5th republic, 1958), “no one may be arbitrarily detained. The judical authority, guardians of individual liberty, shall assure respect for this principle, under the conditions stipulated by law”, and of course there is the Canadian Bill of RIGHTS (1960) “. . . Affirming also that men and institutions remain free only when freedom is founded upon respect for moral and spiritual values and the rule of law; . ..therefor Her Majesty by and with the advice and consent of the Senate and the House of Commons of Canada, enacts as follows: . . ..(part 1, section la) the right of the individual to life, liberty, security of person and enjoyment of property, and the right not to be deprived thereof except by due proccess of the law.” The law, which latter on in your letter you suggest should be disobeyed, is the very instrument that protects YOUR liberty. One point I should like to remind you of, to quote it from Mill’s essay “It is perhaps, hardly necessary to say that this doctrine is meant to apply only to -human beings in the maturity of their faculties.” He goes on to say it does not apply to children or those below the legal age of majority. I do not agree with Mill on this point. The fact that you have reached the age of majority, does not mean that you have reached the maturity of your faculties. I do not believe many (I would say very few) people have reached maturity when they reach that magical age of 18. I find the last paragraph of your letter astounding: You are advocating change in the law by breaking it. You are shurking the very instument that guarantees your liberty (half a loaf is better than no bread at all.) Yet you

have the audacity to complain about the limits to your liberty. As Mill states only those who are of mature faculties are to be accorded the liberties he expounds. Is this, what you seem to advocate, mature reponsible behaviour? A lack of respect for the law leads to social decadance, ultimatly to the destruction of society. If this is the attitude you harbour sir, the next time the police come a calling the only words you will extract from me are, Dulce et Decorum est. Robert Goss Hons. Chem.

Feds depict future plans In Response to Purpose (iii), the chevron Settlement, June 24, 1977: Purpose (iii): “To make recommendations concerning future policies, by-laws and structures of the Federation of Students concerning the operation of the chevron and the employment of the chevron staff, and generally concerning the publication of student newspaper(s) at the University of Waterloo.” There are certain formulations that people will derive concerning the future of the chevron. I have opinions as many students do, but unlike many, take this opportunity to remark. Comment. There have been a variety of phases through which the chevron has passed, and stated that practically every “ism” has been experienced. (Bound volumes of the chevron are available for reference at Dana Porter Library .)

The chevron Wasn’t Free. It cost many a person’s reputation and a significant amount of money. The rift that it created between the students and the Federation is large. The controversy spread and many a precedent was set. (Propriety!) The chevron is undergoing one of its many phases. (In 1975 they had a real hang-up about oral sex.) The impetus for change must come from within the chevron. From students working on the paper. Participation! No amount of external pressure can change the chevron. Only the wills, desires, needs and consciences of the students that produce the paper can change it. If there is not enough collective strength for moderate stands, the radical/reactionary elements will always heavily influence the content. The chevron was Freed. The chevron now has the ability to separate and become master of its own destiny. I support this aim! My Response to Purpose (iii). 1. The Federation and the chevron should separate. The chevron should evolve to the adult stage and become CHEVRON INC. 2. The incorporation should parallel that of Radio Waterloo. (That incorporation is in the final stages.) 3. There should be a referendum for the institution of a separate refundable fee for each corporation. 4. The chevron should remain a staffcontrolled paper, with membership open to all students. 5. The Board of Directors should consist of .3 members from the chevron .3 Council members or students-at-large and .l Federation Executive member. 6. The chevron should seriously consider cutting its paid staff which should be restricted to Editor, Ad Manager and/or Office Manager. 7. The content of the chevron should be the sole responsibliity of the chevron editorial staff (as it now is). 8. The Federation of Students reserves the right to publish any newspaper, newsletter, informational bulletin or written submission which it deems necessary in order to fully inform and communicate with its members. There is a strong AIA influence at the present time. I stated before that I believe that this is a phase and the paper will be able to overcome this influence. I must again stress one thing - no amount of external pressure can change the chevron, it must come from within. Rick Smit President Federation of Students

Stats say... shallow I realized today while reading your November 18 issue that, apart from the movie and record reviews, the only consistently interesting and original part of your paper is the letters section, and that that is probably not unconnected to the fact that your staff does not write it. I also noticed that the only letter about editorial content was a complaint about the misspelling of a name. All other letters dealt with subjects that were first brought up in the ‘feedback section’ - the KFGF poster, Mussolini, marijuana use and liberty, AIA letters, Maoism, and Marxism versus Christianity. I can think of no more eloquent evidence of the intellectual dishonesty and shallowness of the material you print as news and commentary than the fact that nodne, not even any of your house ideologues, cares to respond to it. The Christianity vs. Marxism topic was originally to appear as an article, but was suppressed as such by “the white knights on the chevron staff ‘;“Dr. Schroeder had to submit it as a letter to get it printed. How many other topics worth discussing could have been printed in your paper, which should be at least a little intellectually oriented (this is a university), but have been suppressed or not even attempted because you staffers have decided that the purpose of a newspaper is to bludgeon and not to edify?

Trudeau to legislate ati eight day work week

I --

Workers work harder

Students study harder I

Profs teat h more students

But Trudeau claps his hands and

The Prime Minister of Canada, who in the midst of the RCMP scandal took off to a sunny Caribbean island telling the press he hates to work weekends, has issued the proclamation to all of us in these hard times - “work harder”. And this is the solution UW president Burt Matthews offered students staff and faculty last week when he revealed that even more stringent measures must be taken for UW to survive the next three years of reduced government funding. Asked what these cutbacks will mean the president responded: “We may have to do as Trudeau says, work harder.” The point is, however, that that is exactly what we have all been doing since the cutbacks started in 1971. Students have had to work harder to compensate for the increased student-faculty ratio which allows them less time with their professors. Also the trend has been that more is expected from students. This has been particularly pronounced with graduates as the cutbacks have led to a decrease in graduate funding and a trend for assistance to move from financial need to academic merit (see comment on page IO). But passing criteria are also being raised for undergraduates in several areas with the most notable example being the English Language Proficiency Fraud. The faculty association estimate that their work load has increased by 16 percent since 1970-71 while their real wages have declined. While for non-teaching staff the latest figures released by the vice-president of finance show that their workload has gone up by 38.5 percent between 1970-71 and 1976-77 when-measured as a ratio of staff to students. The ratio has increased from 1 :I3 to 1:18. Now we are told the reward for all this extra labour is that things are going to get worse and “we may have.. .to work harder”. The reason for this is, as Matthews explained, the Ontario government wants to balance its budget by 1981. This budget has been divided into “controllable” and “uncontrollable” classifications. Our education and health care is deemed to be “controllable” - that is it can be cutback - while the “uncontrollable” mainly consists of the government debt. This debt accounts for 60 percent of the 1977-78 budget and much of it is owed to U.S. financiers. Since 1970 the proportion of the Ontario budget spent on education has declined by about 15 percent while the proportion spent on servicing the government debt has increased from about 36 percent to 60 percent of the budget. This provincial government which is so keen to balance its budget is the same one which in 1975 gave a $100 million gift to the synecrude partners. That’s the provincial government, but what of the federal, whose leader is always quick to pronounce that we must all tighten our belts? When Trudeau’s finance minister brought down the last budget he said, “many useful and desirable programs are having to be delayed or curtailed” due to restraint. But one belt which isn’t being tightened is that of the military. The government increased the military monies to $4.8 billion from $3.4 billion in that budget. It has also promised a real 12 percent increase in the military budget for the next five years, and has earmarked $16 billion to be spent of military hardware over the next 15. So while pious politicians tell us to work harder and lower our expectations, money, ’ which could go to education, is instead going to pay back enormous loans they have taken out, or is being given out to corporations, or is being spent by the military. In the face of this Matthews offers specific proposals for financial control, but no leadership in defending and advancing the university activities of research, scholarship and teaching. Why does he have no concrete alternatives to the cutbacks? The reason is because Matthews’ interest is that of a top administrator in minimising the risk to the status quo -to his job. But a “don’t rock the boat” approach is safe for his status quo at the expense of students staff and faculty. Capitulation to cutbacks sells us down the river. What we need is resistance and for that we will have to rely on ourselves. Federation president Rich Smit’s confrontation with Harry Parrott last week and his insistance that Parrott try and explain the government’s cutbacks is a flicker of the sort of resistance necessary. It is a long time since a UW fed pres actually raised his voice in anger against the government and we should see it as a start in the right direction, as should the faculty and staff, and we should all unite to fight back. It may be in Matthews interest not to rock the boat but it’s our only hope. -the

A & B intramurals

Division

november

Final games this weekend The playoffs of the Intramural basketball league began last weekend with 16 “B” teams and 6 “A” teams advancing to postseason competition. The first round and quarter final games of the B league were played as well as the quarter final contest of A league. In the first round B league action, West A won convincingly over the ‘79 Civies by a score of 39-21. Odd Balls upset Math B 31-30 in a very close contest. After a low-scoring first half, South 8 blew out Resurrection 57-19. Sci Sot dominated the Mists 38-25, and the Saints ‘ousted Co-op by the score of 31-26. The Ball Hogs held Renison scoreless in the first half and then breezed to a 47-20 victory. In a well fought contest, St. Jeromes edged West Quad 34-33. The Psychos advanced to the quarter finals by virtue of their 46-39 win over the Fun-Seekers. In “A” league quarter final action, Dromadaries downed the Trackster in convincing fashion by a score of 49-31. In one of the best games of the season, Firehouse held on to win over a battling Conrad Grebel

team, 48-47. Although they were behind most of the game, Conrad Grebel never gave up and-just mis- ~, sed on a last second foul shot that would have sent the game into overtime. Firehouse will now meet the Twine Teasers, and the Dromadaries will meet St. Jeromes in semi-final action on Sunday, November 27. Eight evenly matched teams took-part in the B league quarter finals. Top ranked South 8 had to come from behind to win a thrilling game for the Psychos by a score of 37-33. In the first overtime game of the playoffs, the Ball Hogs edged the Odd Balls 38-35. The height advantage of the West A team proved to be too much for the hustling Saints to overcome, as West A won by a score of 36-24. A strong Sci Sot team had little trouble in winning over St. Jeromes, 42-27. In the semi-finals to be played on November 27, South 8 will face West A and Sci Sot will meet the Ball Hogs. The Semi finals begin at 6:30 p.m. on November 27 and the championship game will be played on Monday, November 2.8, starting at 7:30 p.m.

Naismith

No. 10

The draw for this weekends 10th Annual Naismith Basketball Classic, Fri Sat Nov 25 & 26, is truely a classic. Lakehead, perhaps the best team in the CIAU this year, and St. Mary’s are two excellent teams which the Warrior fans seldom get to see play. Carleton is the team which finished behind Laurentian last year in the OUAA East and McGill was number one in Quebec last year. -andrew

7:OOam 9:00 am

It wasn’t easy, but the Warrior swimmers managed to come out on top in the Laurier relay meet on Sunday. York and Toronto provided the UW men with their stiffest competition of the year as the lead was held, at least once durmg the meet, by each of the three teams. The Yeomen, blues and Warriors were all tied up at three wins apiece going into the final relay, the 4 x 100 freestyle. Toronto did not show well in this event but York,

lead by Olympic Games silver medalist Gary McDonald, turned in a very fast time in the third heat. The Warriors came back with a little Olympic magic themselves in the fourth heat as veteran Dave Heinbuch touched a few tenths ahead of York’s time. Dave was aided by some very fast splits from Tim Wilson, Ron Campbell and Brian Harvey. Other Warriors who swam well during the meet were John Heinbuch and Carl Cronin. The

Brooks-Cormier combo was at work at the other end of the pool. winning both diving events. The Warriors next friday, against McGill pool at 8:00 p.m. The Athenas also have a Western on Sunday.

Mazurkevitch (Capt.), anci Tony Remy) were undefeated beating Carleton (8-l), Ottawa (6-3) and C.M.R. “A”, (5-l). They then had to wait for an hour while the “losers” fought before beating Toronto (5-3), after being (l-3) down in a tense final. -jh

tie twice

The Waterloo Women’s Ice Hockey Team remains undefeated, as they tied two games on the weekend. This team is not a varsity team; rather it is an independent team that plays in the Southern Ontario Women’s Hockey League. They are self supporting and are coached voluntarily by Ted Tarrant, a student at the university. On Friday, Waterloo met up with Plattsville, and the game ended in a 2-2 tie. Plattsville tied the score with less than two minutes remaining, with a shot that deflected off the shoulder of a Waterloo player. Scoring for Waterloo were Janis

McElrae, assisted by Mary Campbell and Helen Mackey; and Bonnie Zagrodney, assisted by Doreen Danis and Cathy Hanna. On Saturday, Waterloo travelled to Ayr for a game that ended in a scoreless tie. Waterloo had many scoring chances, and hit the post a couple of times. Janis McElrae and Sandy Sutton led the foreward attack, while Donna Smith led the defence with her hard hitting. Waterloo’s next game is on Friday, November 25 at 7:00 p.m. at Wellesley Arena against Ayr again. This time Waterloo aims to be at them! -‘sport’
