Gigantic losses cripple BENT budget, Gigantic losses in entertainment have put the Board of Entertainment into the red and the budget year isn’t even half over. . BENT’s $42,050 subsidy was to last until April 30, 1978. So far the board has lost $47,281. The high price of acts, low attendance, and bad planning have all contributed to the defecit. The Harry Chapin concert, which attracted about 2100 people at $4 and $5 a head, lost $6431. Chapin cost the federation $7000. Extra costs, such as lighting and advertising, brought‘ the total outlay close to $14,000. Gentle Giant attracted only slightly more than 200 advanced ticket sales and was promptly cancelled at a cost of $5386. Smaller concerts did slightly better. Murray McLaughlin lost $1466 over three concerts, while Dan Hill actually made $1033. South Campus Hall pubs are‘currently $4575 over their $2000 sub-

sidy for the year. Attendance ranged from a full house for Liverpool to an audience of 16 for Cueball. The weekly coffee houses have cost more than twice their $1600 subsidy. The fall term orientation program managed to generate none of its expected $4000 revenue. It cost students $15,591. Orientation was managed by Bruce Rorrison under then-chairperson of entertainment Bruce Leavens. Federation council removed Leavens from his position earlier this term, charging him with Rorrison remismanagement. placed him. Until recently, Jim Todd was helping Rorrison, both as a co-chairperson and as a coordinator, for which he received a half-time salary of $80 a week. Federation President Rick Smit has now revised his stand on winter term entertainment in, light of the recent losses. “Coffee houses are out -

period,” he said., He wants South Campus Hall pubs to be run on a special events basis, rather than as a weekly or fortnightly event. And he feels the federation should restrict themselves to small concerts for the rest of the year. Federation Business Manager Peter Yates predicts that BENT’s subsidy by the end of the fiscal year, April 30, will be close to $60,000. Waterloo isn’t the only university losing money in entertainment. Wilfred Laurier lost $11,000 on its Burton Cummings concert at Seagram Stadium. And Mike Regan, Director of Student Activities at WLU was recently removed from his position. Student Union president Margaret Royal claims that this wasntt just due to the Cummings concert - “councii generally felt he didn’t handle the posi- ’ tion properly. ’ ’ -randy

Admin to squeeze4 C & D?

The societies should pay $1.40 per square foot of space used for their coffee and doughnut stands, the UW administration proposed last Thursday, November 24 at a meeting with society and federation representatives. In addition, the societies should not add, to the line of foods that are available at their stands without first gaining the approval of the UW administration. These are the two main clauses of a six-part agreement. that Administrative Services director Bill Deeks wants the federation to sign. At present, there is no agreement between societies and the administration governing coffee and doughnut stands. ’ In 1972, the societies approached Food Services and asked that coffee and doughnut stands be provided around campus. Food Services declined, and the societies set up their own .stands which have been doing a roaring business ever since.

Deeks told the student representatives that their societies-should pay UW for the use of facilities such as utilities and janitorial services, just as Food Services does. The total amount requested of the societies is about $600 per year, and is subject to increase with inflation.

Deeks admitted that the sum requested is “no more than a token”, but insisted that it should be paid as a matter of principle. \ Deeks wants a say in the expansion of society stands because he wants the position of Food Services on campus to be protected. Although Deeks is amenable to competing with off-campus suppliers for the society contracts, he doesn’t want the stands to expand to the point where Food Services goes out of business. Reaction to Deeks’ proposal was mixed. EngSoc representatives felt that the charges for facilities are reasonable, while Arts Society

president Joe MacDonald told the chevron that his society “will not pay”. At the federation council meeting the same day, Math councillor John Long said “I don’t think we ‘should be paying any money, when we haven’t been paying money for the past five years.” Long claimed that Deeks has been trying to close down the Math coffee and doughnut stand for some time, and asked why the societies should “give in” when Deeks has been unsuccessful. Reaction to Deeks’ proposal about expansion of the line of food sold by societies was uniformly cautious. Deeks stressed that requests to add to the types of food sold would be considered fairly. The agreement is subject to negotiation, and federation president Rick Smit told council that both they and the societies will be consulted before it is finalized. -nick

Testing might escalate Departments in faculties other than Arts and HKLS might participate in the English Program, according to a report of the Senate Undergraduate Council. Tom Brzustowsky, Academic VicePresident, remarked at last Monday’s senate meeting that this was only “a gleam in Ledbetter’s eye.” Ken Ledbetter, associate Dean of Arts and founder of the program, said it was “a great idea” that other Faculties participate, but that it wasn’t his idea. A quick check of the faculties not involved in the program shows that only those who already have some

form of proficiency testing have decided definitely against joining the program at this time. Doreen Brisbine Associate Dean of Science said the faculty has decided not to participate at this time. When asked what had brought about the discussion on the proficiency program, she said the associate deans meet “quite regularly” and that “there is always the attempt going on to conformity amongst faculties as far as admissions and drops and things like this.” She noted that Science already imposes the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) on

Brisbine said Ledbetter had not been pushing the program in the associate deans’ meetings. “All he’s been saying is that if anybody wants to use it they’re quite happy to help us,” she said.

“It’s a matter of logistics and cost apart from anything else,” he said. He noted Engineering already runs proficiency tests in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Math Associate Dean Peter Ponzo said there has been no suggestion in Math faculty to date that Math students write the English proficiency exam. “We were going to do it another way, ” he said. He outlined a proposal currently before the curriculum committee, that Math students be required to

write three or four essays during their undergraduate career to the satisfaction of their faculty advisor. Ponzo said concern over “lack of communications skills in students” had existed for some time but it was only “after the Arts faculty and its initiative” that they got around to doing something. He said the concern had been expressed by employers of the coop and graduated students. Ponzo confirmed that there was discussion at the associate dean level and added that at the Senate Undergraduate council it had been suggested that the associate deans

Federation councillors voted themselves niore responsibilities for less remunerationsat a meeting last Thursday, November 24, as they abolished their “privilege card” system and adopted a policy that will rid council of its chronically absent members. As if to emphasize a spirit of self-sacrifice, council then voted to prohibit smoking at its meetings. However, this motion was prompted by many:councillors’ irritation by the presence of smoke. The abolition of privilege cards deprives councillors of their $50 per year allowance for attending federation events. Math councillor who proposed the John Long, move, also wanted to prohibit any of the federation’s boards from is-. suing admission passes to people involved in their events. Long told council that privilege cards are ‘“not in the interests of the students” because the recipierits appear as a privileged class. Long suggested that if a board wants to grant free admission to someone, that person should pay the admission price and obtain a refund from the board’s budget. Entertainment co-ordinator Jim Todd told council that the privilege card system was started by the boards, acd the term “privilege card” is a misnomer because they are only given to people who work for the boards. Long revised his motion to allow for free admission to people who are involved in the organization of events. Councillors who miss two consecutive council rpeetings without giving prior notification of their absence, or three conseciltive meetings under any circumstances will immediately lose their seats, according t‘o a motion by Science councillor Stephen Coates. Coates told council that councillors must “accept the responsibility of being h.ere (at meetings) regularly.” He made reference to council’s difficulties in obtaining quorum last summer and early this term, and said “in the summer, .when I made an effort to come here from Toronto and others on campus didn’t bother to come here, it was a wastg,of a day for me and the other councillors who came some distance.” Graduate councillor Dave Carter objected that the motion tries to “enforce democracy”, and said “I

Labatt-Fed

object to forcing people to come to meetings which they might feel are gon-productive.” The motion was passed by a narrow vote of 9-6-3. Coates also introduced a motion to suspend payment of legal fees incurred by Burns Proudfoot in a landlord-tenant dispute, pending a written declaration by Proudfoot that he will cease his attempts to obtain a refund of his federation fees from last year. Proudfoot wants to’ take action against his former landlord, who evicted him from a townhouse on the grounds that it was needed by the landlord’s family. The landlord lives in a $300,000 mansion in Waterloo, and has yet to mpve into the $232 per month townhouse from which Proudfoot and his family were evicted. Proudfoot claims that thit landlord was being vindicative because’ of a successful appeal to the Rent Review Board on Proudfoot’s part concerning an illegal rent increase. . However, Proudfoot’s appeal to the federation for legal assistance has not yet been successful. Last summer, Proudfoot initiated court action against the UW Board of Gbvernors to recover his federation fees, and the federation became reluctant to assist Proudfoot in his dispute with his former landlord. Proudfoot’s case for recovering his federation fees was lost, but at the council meeting he would not commit himself to not trying again. In reference to Proudfoot, Coates told council “I do object to somebody that wants to make use of a rather expensive service of the federation (the lawyer) and not want to pay in.” On September 14, council passed a motion “reaffirming” Proudfoot’s right to the use of the lawyer by federation lawyer. He had previously been granted use of the lawyer by federation business manager Peter Yates, but Ron Hipfner (then the president) reversed Yates’ decision. Confusion about the wording of Coates’ motion and whether it represents a recission of the September 14 motion led to it being tabled. Federation president Rick Smit told the chevron that Proudfoot will not receive assistance from the federation until it is explicitly authorized by council. -nick 3s

Lubrica Labatt Breweries is in town, and the company’s public relations people aren’t wasting any time trying to get in on the UW beer market. Federation and society executive members guzzled beer and munched on pizza Wednesday evening, courtesy of Labatt’s who had invite’d them to discuss how the brewery could “get involved” at uw. Labatt’s has taken over the former Carling-O’Keefe location adjacent to Waterloo Square. The site of Wednesday’s meeting was a private bar, which for some unexplained reason only stocked thr?e types of Labatt’s beer. Competitor’s beer was nowhere in evidence, of course; the Labatt’s represkntative made a rude gesture when the chevron reporter asked for a Molsen Export. Undeterred by the restricted choice of beer, however, the feds and society reps told Labatt’s of their entertainment woes on campus. Labatt’s heard about the federation’s problems with co-

ordination and promotion of campus entertainment, and EngSoc’s difficulties with some of theil fund-raising projects for charity. The riile of Labatt’s “Blue”, “50” and “Clear Spring” in the solution to these problems was unclear, apart from any contribution to the discussion since the brews were being consumed in profusion. -\ The student reps suggested that in return for assistance in cooidinating and promoting entertainment events, Labatt’s could be treated preferentially when it comes time to buy the beer. The Labatt’s representatives were non-committal, and suggested that concrete proposals be worked out at a more sober time. Although they frankly admitted that their motive is to promote sales of Labatt’s beer, no details about how they want to do this were given. At present, the campus centre pub serves both Labatt’s and *Molsen’s draft beer. The Graduate Club serves only Molsen’s beer on draft. -nick

The existence of Radio Waterloo (CKMS) will always depend on the approval of the Federation of Students and the UW administration, despite the proposed incorporation of the station. Radio Waterloo is currently circulating a petition for a separate refundable fee of $2.50 per term. The UW administration requires about 4000 signatures in support of the fee (which would result in a reduction of the federation fee).

A separate refundable fee fol CKMS, together with its incorporation (required by the CRTC) would seem to make the organization independent of both the federation and the UW administration. However,-the federation has agreed to guarantee CKMS $30,000 in revenue per year. That ,is, if so many students obtain refunds of their CKMS fees that the station’s revenue falls below $30,000, the federation will pay the difference.

Federation president Rick Smit told the chevron that council has the power to rescind this guarantee, and to do this wouldjeopardize the station’s incorporation.The federation’s guarantee was made at the time CKMS applied to the CRTC for its broadcasting licence and incorporation. l The UW administration retains some control of the CKMS finances by the clause in: their agreement allowing them to stop collection of the fee at “any time”. A similar clause exists in the agreement between the federation and UW. Under this, the administration may alter the fees collected for the federation, provided notice is given by April 30 in the year of the change. -nick

In the union’s first newslettkr (Zena) released Ott-Nov a communique is carried from the Ethiopan People’s Revolutionary Party dated July-Aug 1977 which states:

“Reports reaching from the capital, Addis Ababa, say that it is widely believed that the fascist regitne of Colonel Mengistu is preparing a mas3 execution of 10,000 youths who are now in prison. It is believed that the regime is.trying to do this before the arrival df a team from Amnesty International.

Nukes wasteful

ergy Week sees, , varied iscussions The topic of energy sparked many seminars, discussions, and debates on campus last week. The week’s activities,‘organized by the Kitchener-Waterloo chapter of Pollution Probe, were comprised of afternoon seminars and workshops and evening meetings. The afternoon discussions featured mainly engineering professors who commented on research in their area of interest. The evening sessions dealt with Ontario’s nuclear future.

‘Efficiency The highlight of the afternoon presentations was probably that of UW’s academic vice-president Tom Brzustowski. Brzustowski, a former mechanical engineering professor, showed how present home appliances are designed for minimum cost rather than maximum efficiency. The prime example of such wastefullness is in fractional horsepower electrical motors, used in refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, furnace fans and other similar appliances. Only in the larger sizes (over 5 hp) have the designs been optimized for maximum efficiency, so presently much of the electricity consumed in the home is wasted as heat rather than being converted j into useful work. If, in the future, consumers demand appliances that operate at the least cost, vast amounts of electrical generating capacity can be saved without building more expensive generating stations.

“No

Nuclear”

Tuesday evening was Greenpeace’s meeting entitled “NO NUCLEAR”. A film showing various atomic plants in Europe and their horrendous legacy for future generations sparked the discussion for the rest of the evening. Greenpeace believes that nuclear power is the most dangerous of all of mankind’s technoIogy and that simpler means, along with dedication to conserving energy, can yield man a future which is inherently better than that planned for us by Atomic Energy of Canada, Ltd. and Ontario Hyd,ro. Greenpeace attacks the nuclear future of Ontario on all fronts. The centralization of generating capacity in plants like Pickering and Bruce, is extremely costly. Several billions of dollars are required to be borrowed to finance the relatively short operating terms (30 year life) of these plants. In contrast, the hydro-electric generating stations of Ontario Hydro at the original Niagara Falls development have close to a century of operation behind them, and are still functioning efficiently. Greenpeace also believes that such centralization will infringe on the civil liberties of all citizens, in the future. Concerns about the manufacture of nuclear wastes at these plants ,also is a pillar of Greenpeace’s dedication to a non-nuclear future. The high level wastes currently generated will inevitably tie Ontario to the reprocessing of this garbage. In the past these procesi ses have been crude, and leakage of dangerous wastes abounds. A commerical reprocessing plant south of Buffalo, at West Valley, N.Y., contains the residue of such operations in a tank which is slowly corroding. Nuclear experts feel that a fix for this problem can be found before the tank’s toxic material is released into the Lake Erie watershed. The environmental impact of such power development has also been called into question by

Greenpeace. In the case of the Darlington station, just east of Oshawa, the residents of the area have not been consulted and an impact statement has not been prepared. Greenpeace representatives occupied the site in violation of the law to publicize that one of the world’s largest nuclear generating stations is being constructed in Ontario by the Hydro with little, or no concern, for the views of the population. Greenpeace believes that technology exploiting solar energy can power our society, cleanly, at less cost than these massive atomic stations. They feel that the anti-nuclear movement can establish a decentralized power generation capability which will yield society much greater benefits than those proposed by the Hydro.

Alternatives The Wednesday evening films, at the Campus centre, were devoted last week to those on energy. A multitude of films explored the alternative technologies, such as heat pumps and methane powered automobiles, which Greenpeace advocates. The films were informative and some illustrated Canadian expertise in these fields.

Nuclear

debate

Thursday’s evening’s debate between nuclear and anti-nuclear advocates was disappointing to most participants. The Canadian Nuclear Association representative, Robert Delaney, in a rather tongue-in-cheek manner presented the terrorist _ possibilities of a CANDU reactor (never a major concern of their opponents). His presentation and replies to questions from the audience were simplistic to the point of inaccuracy and he refused to comment on the technical qualities of the reac-tor design. A less useful person could probably not be found. Ralph Torrie, from the Ontario Coalition for Nuclear Responsibility, illustrated that for the capital invested in the plants, fewer jobs were created than for any other sector of our economy. He also showed that most of our energy is consumed in low temperature heating applications, the area where solar collectors excell. Presently we waste six times as much energy as we usefully employ and Torrie said we should attack this problem (which is Brzustowski’s thesis also) not to build more generating capacity which will be in the large part wasted. It was stated that decisions can not be resolved on purely technical matters alone, but social and environmental factors must be considered. Torrie advanced the position that energy policy is limited now not by technology but by institutions. As an example, wind power has been harnessed for over two thousand’years while advocates of nuclear power say it still requires decades of development before it can prove competitive with convential generation means.

Buchanan Although occurring after Energy Week, two speakers were on campus later who dealt with energy related issues. The Honourable Judd Buchanan, Minister of State for Science and Technology, elaborated on the regulation of the nuclear industry in Canada. Atomic Energy of Canada, Ltd. was set up as a crown corporation to exploit the peaceful uses of atomic materials in Canada. At the

same time the Atomic Energy Control Board was established to regulate the activities of AECL and other industries dealing with any form of nuclear isotopes. The problem with this setup was that the individuals establishing policy at AECB were also ranking members of AECL and thus had no real concern in regulating themselves. Mr. Buchanan admitted this inadequacy in stating that legislation introduced in the House of Commons will replace the AECB with a new agency, the Nuclear Control Board. The responsibilities of the AECB will be split

On Tuesday afternoon Dan Shatil, chairperson of the Solar Energy Society of C,anada addressed a meeting in E.S.

Shatil stressed the importance of developing solar technology on a community basis as the beginning of a movement to replace the sprawling urban centres of our country with diversified, autonomous communities in which people mattered more than anything else.

His talk was illustrated by examples throughout Ontario where solar based “soft” technologies are being applied to dwellings being

His optimism in this regard will undoubtably help to establish a local chapter of this society on campus.

at York

Renison

Former Renison college professor Jeffrey Forest, has been suspended from his teaching position at York university and banned from campus following a series of incidents involving the Metro police, the university administration and security, and the York students. The social science lecturer was arrested along with two other supporters of the York Student Movement (YSM), the university wing of the Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist), and another person Friday, Nov. 18. The literature table of the YSM was also banned from campus the same day, but was reinstated Monday Nov. 28 at the demand of hundreds of students who signed a petition. Over 100 students had earlier defended the table when it was set up in defiance of the administration, the police and Zionists. The volatile affair began Thursday Nov. 17 when heated discussion broke out over the book “Zionism is Racism” which was on sale at the YSM literature table. One of the Zionists tore down a poster from the YSM display. The student, Nary Roteberg, claimed he was pushed around by Barbara Nunn-who was at the table. Nunn claims Roteberg slugged her and pushed her over the table. 1 On the next day YSM members returned to put up the table and Nunn brought a three foot 2 x 2. That day a gang of about 30 Zionists arrived and heated argument en-’ sued between the two groups. The 2 x 2 sitting on a shelf behind Nunn was discovered and a chant went up “we want the club”. At this time 10 metro police arrived and arrested Nunn, charging her with disturbing the peace and possession of a weapon dangerous to the public peace. According to witnesses, as she was being escorted to one of the

Another pointed out that if, as Jaynes argued, the “bicameral men” had no sense of sin, then how did the ancient Egyptians speak of a man’s soul being weighed, to determinehis fate, after his death? Jaynes had no good answer to this question, although he did suggest that perhaps the “weighing’: had a different interpretation than our modern cultural bias would put on it. Jaynes gave active consideration to a wide range of views which came up during the discussion periods, but qualified many of his answers by saying that he still had to think further about the implications of his theory.. When the- chevron interviewed Jaynes, we pointed out that the Iliad itself was an example of narratization - separation of the story teller from the story - that Jaynes claims is an aspect of consciousness. Jaynes conceded here, as in other questions, that the Iliad was a borderline document, and lay between bicameral and conscious thought. We asked how, if these ancients were like schizophrenics, their writings were not also like the writings of schizophrenics. Jaynes replied that the parallel was not valid since the schizop-

Support

committee

A committee to support the struggles of the Zimbabwe people has been formed by the International Students Association. The committee was formed Monday, Nov. 28th and has as its basic aims to support the Zimbabwean (Rhodesian) People by collecting items for over 45,000 refugees who have been forced to flee to Mozambique by the Smith regime. The committee will collect d&g store items such as bandages and also recreational materials such as tennis balls which are often used to play soccer, in the refugee camps. Anyone interested in joining or assisting the committee is invited to attend an organizational meeting on .Thursday, Dec. 8th at 2:00 p.m. in the World Room, Campus Centre.

Holiday

celebration

The International Students Association will hold a holiday celebration for all international students (all students are welcome) on Sunday, Dec. 18th, at 6pm (place to be announced). The evening will include a ‘potluck supper of food from around the world, plus an international cultural programme to be followed by a dance.

The school children could not be arrested for failing to produce appropriate passes so they were charged with being in “need of care” and were hauled off to prisons. Students in Atteridgeville are presently boycotting their classes to protest agianst the racist educational system. Across South Africa over 300,000 students are presently boycotting their classes.

China

Week

The Chinese Student Association of University of Waterloo is going to present the China Week on campus from Jan. 16 to Jan. 22, 1978. The content of China Week will include discussions on specific topics concerning contemporary China, presided over by a guest speaker, a panel discussielm shows and a photo-display. As Canada is a multicultural country, mutual respect and understanding among different nationalities is vital. Therefore, the main theme of this event is to promote Sino-Canadian friendship and international understanding. The CSA would like to invite everyone who in interested in graphic art to design a poster to promote this meaningful event. The poster should expand on the main theme of China week. Maximum size is 14x18 inches. Please use 2 or less colours. Please submit your design to the Chinese Library, located in the Campus Centre basement. The deadline is Jan. 5, 1978. A consolation prize will be given if your design is being used. For further information please contact CSA, c/o Federation of Students, University of Waterloo.5 The China Week (78) Organizing Committee Chinese Student Association University of Waterloo

The South African regime arrested 626 people, including 198 school children, on November 10, in the town of Atteridgeville, near the capital of Pretoria. Those arrested were charged with failing to produce their “pass books”. All the Azanian people (South African) people must carry a pass signed by the racist regime stipulating when and where a person can go. The pass books also bind the person to a particular job assigned to them by the racist regime.

Racism is the ideology of the rich, and racism is the policy of the state of the rich. The Foreign irnperialists, mainly those form the US, and the big money-bags of Canada own and control nearly everything in this country. . . .Hence the rich use racism to wring maximum profit out of their employees and to make it easier to rule over the people. They use racism to single out certain sections of the the immigrant compeople, munities, for the worst kind of exploitation and to incite other sections of the people to attack immigrants.”

The Rhodesian government claims to have raided two strategic Zimbabwe African National Union (ZAN U) bases in Mozambique. However, there is a dispute on the number of people killed. Rhodesia says that at least 1200 guerillas were killed but only one Rhodesian soldier was lost in the battles. But according to Mozambique, five Rhodesian soldiers and eighty people, most of them women and children, were slain. A.M. Chidoda, chief representative of the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU) in Canada, flatly rejected Ian Smith’s recent proposal of “one man, one vote” at a campus meeting last Saturday, November 26. He called the proposal a move of desperation and a tactic by Ian Smith to continue the present exploitive and repressive system of government through a puppet black government. He elaborated that the voting system could easily be mani’pulated by the Smith regime so only black leaders sympathetic to the Smith government would be elected. “Our struggle will continue against the exploitive system - people did not shed their blood for a vote. To vote for what?” Even the suggestion that elections be conducted under United Nation’$peace-keeping forces was rejected. Chidoda warned “ any peace keeping force will be treated as part of the enemy - and will be fired upon”. Chidoda also charged that while “peace talks” are going on, the “United States, through the CIA is sending black - Americans‘ to Rhodesia to recruit people - what for? We don’t know.” Presently, three other liberation organizations have expressed support for Smith’s proposals, however the Patriotic Front (ZANU and ZAPU) has rejected it and ZANU claims to have liberated two thirds of the countryside and eighty two percent of the population. Chidoda emphasized the ZANU slogan, “we are our own liberators” and he explained “‘we’ does not mean America, Britain, or Ian Smith”. He also called Russia “vicious” and cautioned against them interfering in the Zimbabwen struggle. “ZANU is against all forgeing troops - takes the struggle away from us.” He also scoffed at reports that Smith’s security forces had invaded Mozambique and were within miles of ZANU headquar-ters. “We are operating from inside the country (Rhodesia).” According to Chidoda, the only reasons for Ian Smith’s attack was to- stop Mozambique from providing aid to refugees and to internationalize the struggle by provoking Mozambique to counter-attack. “Our slogan is not “one man, one vote” but “one man, one gun; many bullets”, he said. When asked if this slogan meant complete annihilation of the white people, he replied “it does not mean that all white people will be killed - our fighters are politicized thouroughly so that they understand that it is not the white people who we are fighting, but rather the system and those who are controlling the weapons of.the system”. To the question, “What guarantees are there that a revolution or liberation through armed struggle will not lead to dictatorship by armed force?“, C hidoda replied that an educated mass was the best safeguard and “right now, ZANU freedom fighters are completely politicized before they are even allowed to carry a gun - we try to keep a vigilence-but there is no predicting the future. We can only try and do our best to make sure it does not happen.” Chidoda referred to the “protected villages” as “concentration camps”. “They call us terrorists yet it is their security men-who are really terrorists since they are paid to terrorize” . Their actions are “fascist, vicious, and desperate”. He gave an example of a black man tortured by having hot tea poured over his head

at regular intervals “by a white, supposedly civilized man.” Another example was of deliberatly attacking a school at noon hour. The helicopters dropped soldiers near the school and they mowed down the children in the yard. “One was only six. Yet these are the people the Smith regime calls terrorists”. Chidoda also said that the gov-

ernment knew that the children came out at noon to say their prayers and sing songs. He called ’ these “actions of a barbaric regime” and “murd.er at any cost.” Chidoda once again emphasized that ZANU will keep on struggling until they have achieved “genuine independence, self determination, and a change in the system.” -nash

Latin American Working Group

Opposition

The Canadian Churches have renewed their commitment to a national campaign to halt corporate investments in Chile because of continuing repression of human rights by the country’s military rulers The renewal of Project Chile an initiative of the ecumenical Taskforce on the Church and Corporate Responsibility in collaboration with the Canadian Labour Congress and the Latin American Working Group - comes in the wake of decisions by two Canadians mining companies to proceed with multi-million dollar investments in partnership with the Chilean junta. At the same time, the two corporations are making drastic cutbacks in their Canadian labour force.

Canadians Hurt by Process The corporate expansion abroad coincides with cutbacks in production and layoffs in Canada. Both Noranda and Falconbridge have been expatriating capital for foreign investments which take advantage of cheaper and repressed labour in Third World countries. Meanwhile, Canadian mining is in economic trouble and unemployment in the industry is on the rise. Over the last few years Noranda has cutback its Canadian mining, smelting and refining labour force by 2,400 workers. It‘increased its overseas employment by 15 per-

is planning the development of the Andacollo copper deposit in northern Chile with an investment of $350 million. Falconbridge, along with its parent and related companies, is exploring possible development of the Quebrada Blanca deposit which could cost more than $500 million. A Chilean government publication, Chile Economic News, also reports that Placer Development Ltd. of Vancouver - a subsidiary of Noranda Mines - is interested in investing $200 million for the exploitation of a molybdenum deposit in Chile. The British banking publication, Bolsa Review, adds that Noranda’s contract grants them rights to develop a $100 million gold mine at El Indio. The billion dollar proposals by Noranda and Falconbridge catapult Canada into forefront of post-coup d’etat patrons of Chile’s +litary junta. No other nation comes close to the amount of proposed Canadian investments which the junta of General August0 Pinochet considers the life-blood of its economic future.

cent. Recently the company announced permanent layoffs of 364 employees at mines in Quebec, New Brunswick and Ontario and the suspension of a further 720 employees at Quebec operations. In Sudbury, Falconbridge is following the example of its nickel neighbour, INCO Ltd., which is laying off 2,200 workers early next year. Falconbridge suspended its entire 4,000-member workforce during September and is now imlayoffs plementing permanent which union representatives estimate will total 600 by the end of the year.

Reports

Chile

The two corporations are attracted to Chile by the junta’s policies which opened the door to foreign investment and restructured The the economy. “economic recovery” that the junta claims to have instituted is, however, a one-sided affair: good for the rich and foreign interests, but a disaster for the majority of Chileans. Reports from Chile indicate that the rich have never had it better. But Chilean refugees arriving in Canada and sources within the Chilean Catholic Church say that the poor have never suffered so greatly in remembered history. Labour unions are repressed and wages strictly regulated by military authorities. Land reform has been reversed leaving some 40,000 families without land, without homes and without jobs. Unemployment stands officially at 13 percent but as high as 40% in some industries. A spokesman for the government admits that 25 percent of Chileans are living in absolute (not only relative) poverty with “‘insufficient means to feed, clothe or house themselves . . .Even less do they have access to other social areas such as education, nutrition, * etc.” Political repression, which claimed 30,000 lives and took 100,000 political prisoners after the 1973 coup d’etat, now continues at reduced levels and under a thin layer of cosmetic reform. Junta president Pinochet is talking about some form of elected civilian government by the late 1980’s and has

announced the dissolutions .of the dreaded DINA, his Gestapo-like secret police agency. Junta press releases claim that tliere are no longer any political prisoners in the country’s jails. Few international organizations are convinced by the cosmetics. Amnesty International still says the junta has not accounted for 2,500 political prisoners and disappeared persons. The international human rights organization notes that Pinochet has simply de-classified political prisoners into common criminals as a public relations gesture, but people continue to be arrested or disappear for their political beliefs or trade union activity. The dissolution of the DINA was. followed immediately by the‘creation of a new secret police agency, the Centro National de Informaciones (CNI), which inherits DINA’s 20,000 agents and a mandate almost identical to its predecessor. The State of Seige decree

has been renewed, political parties remain outlawed and the junta refuses entry to the country of investigative teams from the United Nations Commission on Human Rights. Pinochet’s talk of elections does not include freedom for political organizations and suggest the creation of what he calls “totalitarian democracy” 1

increased

Pressure

The Project Chile coalition hopes to increase pressure on Noranda and Falconbridge before they cominit large sums of capital to their mining projects in several years time. Such investment, says Project Chile, grants a mantle of respectability to a dictatorial regime. The contract signing by the companies was greeted with great enthusiasm by the military junta as a sign of international confidence in its policies. The fruits of such corporate involvement are repression for Chileans and more unemployment for Canadians.

An apology is owed to Mary Vrantsidis whose poem was inadvertently butchered by me two issues ago. A reconstituted version appears on this page. Here’s a suggestion for self defense to all contributors: Try to anticipate errors that may be made by staff, for example, if more than one piece is submitted, indicate clearly where one ends and another begins by, for instance, submitting them on separate sheets or bundles of paper. I (we?) have received surprisingly little critical response to Prose & Poetry aside from the occasional derogatory or enthusiastic remark made by some friends and acquaintances of “the sunday chevron’s”’ entertaining, but mine (excluding decidedly unique interpretation). I would be overjoyed to see some letters to feedback with any (intelligent and coherent) suggestions, comments or criticisms of the page. To expand on my comments of October 7, the purpose of Prose & Poetry was never to set fantastic new literary standards, but rather toagive students an opportunity to publish some short works, encourage them to continue to write, to make the general body of students more aware of what other students wrote, and, finally, to expand on the admittedly limited variety of content of this paper. Definitions of what is “good” or “bad” prose or poetry are invariably contradictory and insufficient - the remainder are too vague and general to be of any use. Anything, no matter how “bad”, has some merit, even if that exist only in the realization of what makes it “bad”. I maintain that it is possible to a large degree to recognize this merit despite one’s personal unbounded enthusiasm or distaste for a passage. Any “subjectivist” (whoever that might be) would dismiss this as drivelling nonsense, but, nevertheless, an awareness of one’s own prejudices can be sufficient motivation to largely compensate for them. It is in this spirit that I hope everyone approaches these humble offerings. -0mn

Drama at its best

“The Crucibl ” yields tension and suspense

Some of the characters in “The Crucible” are (left to right) Anthony Mancici as )ohn Proctor, Greg Co/es as Marshal l-derrick, Daniel Wood as judge Hathorne and Debbie Hunsberger as Elizabeth Proctor.

Opening

soon at a theatre

nea.r you.

The tension and suspense hung thick in the air, as “The Crucible” by Arthur Miller played Tuesday at the Theatre of the Arts. Produced by the UW Drama Group, “The Crucible” must rank as the best drama on campus this term. The final performances are today and tomorrow starting at 8 Pm* Based on the Salem, Mass. witch hunts of the 17th century, “The Crucible” focuses on Elizabeth and John Proctor who resist the hysterical attitude of the church toward the devil at that time. The audience was drawn into the play within minutes of its start. as the play progressed, Anthony Mancini (playing the part of John Proctor) took the audience with him in his horror at the persecution of his wife, his desperate hope that he could convince the court of his wife’s innocence and finally, his

tortuous decision to stand by the truth and go to the gallows. The play consists of four acts, each of about 40 minutes duration and separated by short intermissions. During each of the intermissions, it was clear that the audience was totally involved in the play; everyone was talking about what had happened and what might happen next. The suspense was incredible. The character portrayal was so effective that the audience experienced gut reactions, something that is easily detected by observation during the play and intermissions. One comes to hate the witchfinder and judges for their hysteria and corruptness, while genuinely feeling and hoping for the objects of their persecution. The Proctor family’s problems start when Abigail Williams (played by Karen Woolridge) engineers an accusation against Elizabeth Proctor of witchcraft. Abigail’ s opportunity arises when a group of “children’ (a term apparently used to describe women who have yet to marry) are found dancing in the woods. Abigail was among them. In the puritan time of the 17th century, dancing is linked to the devil, and a witch-finder arrives post-haste. The children claim to have seen spirits, ,and a large number of arrests of Salem women follow. The witch hunt gathers momentum with great rapidity, and during the trials Abigail has little difficulty framing Elizabeth for a murder by witchcraft. ’ Abigail desires to replace Elizabeth in John’s heart, which stems from an illicit relationship between them when she was a servant in the Proctor household. The staging of the play is highly professional in appearance, and some of the scenes of hysteria are so violent that one would almost expect stuntpersons to be used. Notable amongst the cast for her stunts was Karen Woolridge as Abigail. The blocking of the play can be faulted on the point of actors with their backs to the audience. Of course, this cannot be completely avoided if realism is important, especially in scenes with a large number of actors. However, there are some lengthy dialogues that take place with one of the speakers keeping his back to the audience, and this causes some difficulty in hearing from the rear of the theatre. With the exception of Act II, which takes place in the Proctor’s house, the sets are minimal. This is most appropriate, since the characters of the play determine the atmosphere and there is little that an elaborate set could contribute. Indeed, the audience’s attention should not be drawn from the actors by sets; the play is a study of the human condition. Every aspect of the production was researched with authenticity in mind. The music, dialect and etiquette are convincing and contri-

bute greatly to the audience’s involvement with the play. The cast held rehearsals in the woods at midnight, hoping that the atmosphere inherent in such a setting could be taken to the stage. They were highly successful in this. * The quality of acting is excellent, even aside from the fact that most of the cast are students, and all are amateurs. Anthony Mancini’s portrayal of John Proctor is superb, and the only major actor who can be faulted is Debbie Hunsberger (as Elizabeth Proctor) who did not seem emotive enough at times. -deborah -nick

Belle of Amherst:

n The poetess Emily Dickenson will be portrayed in a production of “The Belle of Amherst” by William Lute December 8,9 and 10 at the Theatre of the Arts. The play is sponsored by the Creative Arts Board and stars Margot Hull as the sole actress. The play draws on Dickensok’s poems and letters, and firsthand accounts of the poetess from relatives and friends. In an interview with the chevron, director John Plank said that many of her poems are short, and the play consists largely of ,her own words from - her letters. Plank described the play as tak-’ ing place around 1883, a few years prior to Dickenson’s death. During her lifetime, only seven of Dickenson’s poems were publish*ed although she wrote over 2000. A complete collection of her

poems has only been compiled in the last 20 years; Plank said that in Dickenson’s time, women in the Arts were not accepted, and the sevenpoems of hers that were published were attributed simply to “E. Dickenson”. Plank said that “The Belle of Amherst” contains some of her best poetry, and some of her worst. He has cut several pages from Lute’s script, primarily because a one-actor play cannot retain an audience’s interest for an excessive length of time. Plank’s production runs for about 90 minutes. Plank described the set of the play as being $bare, apart from seven or eight pieces of authentic period furniture. Hull will wear a dress based on one owned by Dickenson, and Plank noted that purists will not recognize it as being of that period, even though it actually is.

A UW Arts Centre press release says that “For those who know and love the poems of Emily Dicken, son, the play introduces them to the fascinating lady who fashioned them. To those who are not familiar with her work, it is a disarming introduction to one of America’s greatest writers.” Critics will reserve such statements untjll UW’s production has beenseen. But if the success of the original Broadway production is any indication, “The Belle of Amherst” is something to look forward to. -nick

The Physical Resources Group at the University of Waterloo, the people who look after all the buildings and grounds, have put together an art show for the UW Arts Centre Gallery that opens on December 1 and runs until December 11. Called “AFTER FBUI?“, the display concerns leisure activities and includes an extensive and varied collection of crafts. There will be an informal opening on Sunday, December 4 from 2 to 5 p.m. Admission is free and everyone is welcome. This is perhaps the first time that a University of Waterloo nonacademic department has attempted an art show in the UW Arts Centre Gallery. However, the personnel of the Department have en-tered into this project with great enthusiasm with almost all sections and ah levels represented. While none of the contributors are considered- “professional” artists the work is of uniformly high calibre and indicates that these people put as much pride and dedication into their leisure hours activities, after 4 (or 4:30 p.m.) as they do-into their work of maintaining the UW campus. Some of the items in the show are oil and water colour paintings, frames, models, lamps, etchings, carvings and sculpture, photography, dried flower arrangements, enamel on copper, needle work, and stained glass work. The UW Arts Centre Gallery is located in the Modern Languages building, open Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. ‘to’ 4 p.m., Sundays from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. There is no admission charge.

Those who saw The Choir last Friday have reason to be appreciative of the Board of Entertainment’s efforts: the band is excellent, and cheap at the price - considering that it consists of five women and four men, Unfortunately, the federation However, the capacity of these ended up subsidizing the evening to pubs is about 450 people, and when the tune of $10 per person. When the cost of The Choir -($900) is Cueball performed, the subsidy added to miscellaneous expenses was $62.50 per person. (about $200), the Board of EnterPart of the problem with the tainment is left with a loss of at least South Campus Hall pubs is co$800 since revenue from the door ordination:_while The Choir played and the%bar is less than $300.

The Choir drew a crowd of about 80 people to the South Campus Hall pub last Friday. This can be considered- a mild success compared to the previous pub with Cueball, which drew 16 people and cost the federation $1000.

to 80 people, the Naismith pub at Village I was filled with a capacity crowd of 450. On Saturday, the Village held another Naismith pub, and again attracted a capacity crowd. Hopefully, entertainment coordination will improve next term, and perhaps The Choir will be booked again and play to an audience of respectable size. The band certainly deserves it, and from the audience response last Friday there is no reason why a return engagement shouldn’t be more successful. --nick

K-Ws chainber music Dinner With Beethoven II - 2nd in our 7-concert series of Beethoven chamber music with Raffi Armenian, piano and principalsof the Stratford Ensemble. Dee 3, Dinner 7:00 (sold out), concert 8: 30 (tickets available), Conrad Grebel College Chapel. Violin Sonata no. 10, Op. 96; Cello Sonata no. 3, Op. 69; Trio no. 3, Opus 1. Irving ilmer, violin, Ifan Williams, cello. Tickets $3, $5, $7. Phone ext. 2780 for re-Servations. Information: The Trio No. 3 in C Minor for Violin, Cello and Piano, perhaps Beethoven’s Opus 1, is first really revolutionary piece of music. Haydn advised him-to withhold publication on the ground that people weren’t ready for it yet! The third Cello Sonata, in -A Major, Op. 69, is a classic middleperiod piece, full of ravishing melodies - and studded with challenging passages for the soloist that have made this a favorite with cello recitalists everywhere. The Opus 96 Violin Sonata, in G Major, is one of the first of the Master’s compositions in “late period” style - introverted, with brief, .fragmentary themes and complex working-out, and offering glimpses into musical landscapes which no mortal had trod before - and few since.

music was meant to be heard! The Third Dinner With Beethoven_: concert is scheduled for Saturday, February 18th. Dinner/concert from $9-$14. Phone 742-2 101, 886-3850, or 886- 1673. “Ghost” Trio, “Spring” Sonata, 2nd Cello Sonata. Buffet Dinners are contributed by members and friends of the K-W Chamber Music Society. A fine

The Chapel at Conrad Grebel College, seating only 150 people, with its good Steinway small grand piano, affords a truly chamber setting for chamber music. The audience feels an intimacy with the performers far greater than ordinary concert halls can possibly provide. This was how chamber

Street Ballet Ken Tobias Attic Records One of the unfair criticisms commonly levelled at soft pop artists such as Ken Tobias is that they don’t rock enough. This complaint might be justified if it were directed at someone who was supposedly working with up tempo rock rhythms, but when applied to the MOR genre typified by Neil Diamond, Barry Manilow, and, in a Canadian context Tobias, Shirley Eikhard, and Andy Kim, it is merely an indication of the failure to recognize stylistic limits. In this context, Street Ballet presents an enjoyable mix of inoffensive soft rockers, lushly produced ballads, and the occasional change of pace gospel and light jazz rhythms. Like Neil Diamond, Tobias’ major strength lies inevitably in the cleverly crafted ballads which are the real mainstays of both artists’ repertoire. Given this similarity, Tobias also falls into the same trap that has marred much of Diamond’s recent material, and that is a tendency for his non-ballads to represent banal lyricism set to nondescript melodies. Fortunately, unlike Diamond’s records, Tobias’ attempts to incorporate a relatively eclectic range of influences into a pop framework are at least intermittently entertaining: it isn’t so much a case of knowmg more than the three chords that Diamond uses with such irritating regularity, but rather being able to combine them more effectively. (This is not intended as derogatory since it is difficult to imagine pop music surviving at all without the C,F,G prog- ression.) Street Ballet’s standout numbers include the gentle “New York City,” the cocktail jazz of “Hats Off’ and the exceptionally touching heartache of “Whistle These Old Blues.” The latter in particular is Tobias at his best, with a sincere vocal and a tastefully restrained arrangement breathing new life into the overworked “alone in this hotel room” theme. ’ Side two offers-more of the same strengths, with “ Old Timer’ ’ (which is not an embodiment of “A classical approach to pop. .” as the promotion blurb claims) conveying a sort of sentimental flip side to the treatment of old age done by Janis Ian in “Sunset Of Your Life” from the Miracle Row album. (“The empty smile/The frozen face/The drooling child/humiliates. .“) Instead of this painfully realistic picture, Tobias tempers the topic with the “.. .innocence and purity” of ’ grandchildren. Although it may be

less effective than Ian’s song, it IS consistent with his musical style. The record ends on a high note with an update of the classic “Dream No. 2” which was released as his fourth single in 1972. Although the new version is not drastically different from the fine original, the extra percussive and orchestral touches add a new dimension to the tune, which provides a strong ending to a solid easy-listening LP. (The imaginative strong arrangements by the way are the work of Milan Kymlicka, who scored some of Ian Thomas’ work .) One negative note here concerns the condition of the review copy of Street Ballet. Unfortunately, it was warped enough to pot a tropical plant in. And even after I stuffed my pockets full of quarters and sat on the tonearm, I still had to listen to the stylus somersault across much of the first couple of songs on each side. Even so, I’d still recommend much of the music here over the tired repetition of some of the more established soft rockers. The Rolling Stones Love You Live Rolling Stone Records The real title of this two record concert set was used by Lou Reed a couple of years ago: Metal Machine Music. The Stones run through eighteen songs, split about evenly between pre-Sticky Fingers selections and more recent material. However, the major problems here have little to do with the quality of the tunes, but instead involve the total disrespect and careless attitude which are evident in the performances. Jagger slurs his way through “Brown Sugar” and “Tumbling Dice”. “Get Off My Cloud”, which was once an angry anthem of defiance comes off here as a request to stay off private property ; and “It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll” places its operative emphasis instead of “rock ‘n w “only” roll’ ’ . The El Mocambo side, recorded in Toronto last March, is easily the highlight of this otherwise depressing LP. Although Muddy Waters turned in an infinitely more powerful version of “Mannish Boy” on Hard Again, it still’packs a greater punch than anything from the other three sides. “Crackin’ Up” kicks along nicely and “Around. And Around,” the old Chuck Berry number, is the best song here. The audience noises and Jagger’s humorous introductions of the band members in terms of their sexual proclivities provide some of the best listening on any of the sides. One final point:-the recording is unusually.muddy, with poor mixing ruining a lot of the songs. (What is “Brown Sugar” when you can

barely hear the opening riff?)’ But what can you expect when you’re dealing with the world’s greatest rock ‘n roll machine? -john

The N.F.G. Orchestra Songs of Inspiration Pinto Like they say on TV, this one isn’t available in any store. This is, I believe their first album, and after apparently having difficulty finding a record company to back them, they decided to release this record on their own private label. In the recent Canadian tradition of anonymity which began a short time ago with Klaatu, this album doesn’t have pictures of group members, and they are identified _by first name only. The group’s guiding force appears to be a character named Harpie (Ya, well I bet yowl laughed when you heard there was a guy in Roxy Music named Eno too) and he produced and engineered this album, along with doing most of the arrangements. He also plays horns, piano and synthesizer. The other dominant figure on the record is simply named Frank, and he plays woodwinds, guitar and percussion istruments. In all, there ‘are seven members in N.F.G.O. The music is certainly avanteguard, but there are elements of many different types of music. There are eight songs altogether; six are original compositions. The two non-originals, Stevie Wonder’s “Sir Duke” and Bruce Springsteen’s “Tenth Avenue Freezeout” are given such incredible new arrangements that you hardly recognize them, yet they still manage to retain something of what made the originals great. Their “Song of Inspiration” is one of the best cuts. It has a haunting melody you’ll swear you’ve heard before, and some strange off-the-wall lyrics. At just over three minutes, it could be a great single. For an album as obscure as this one, the production is first-rate. So is the album jacket, which features a spooky Roger Dean-type painting on the cover (Dean did covers for some Yes albums) and a photograph of some children playing in front of what appears to be a variety store on the back cover. ’ Although they don’t look like they’re ready to break nationally just yet, they apparently have a small cult following in the Detroit-Windsor area, and with their fresh approach to music, I’m sure they have no where to go but up. Information about the album can be obtained by writing: Pinto, Att. V. Ziegler, 142 Danforth Ave., Learnington, Ontario, N8H 2R2. -jason

Gryphons got lucky r The Waterloo Hockey Warriors dropped their two league openers last week, but served notice that they are indeed ready to challenge the traditional OUAA powers. Thursday the 24th saw Waterloo at Memorial Gardens in Guelph, where the Gryphons managed a 6-2 decision by virtue of a late scoring flurry. ,The Warriors had manhandled Guelph 7-l in the preseason, but the Gryphons came out hitting, and opened the scoring less than a minute into the game when Paul Gol-

dup deflected a drive from the point past UW goaltender Rick Nickelchock. The Warriors then took the play to Guelph, as is their style, but were unable to capitalize on various power play opportunities. Waterloo managed to mount sustained pressure and indeed set up a veritable barrage of rubber at Guelph netminder Scott Machesney. They hit the goal -‘post on at least five occasions, but came up empty. The Gryphons meanwhile . stuck to an obvious game plan and froze the puck repeatedly in their

own end. UW drew abreast in the second stanza.when Bill Daub set up captain Mike Zettel for a power play goal, but Guelph recaptured the lead minutes later with Zettel in the penalty box when Greg McMillan found himself and the puck unmolested in the slot.

There are two main reasons why the university has had the high school tournament for the last dozen years. Besides the competative side, it provides a community service and it exposes high school players to the university here and in general. ‘The K-W high school coaches are assisting with the runniilg of the tournament and the local officials are donating their usual fees to the Mike Moser Memorial fund.

rational to destroy what has been abolished, and consequently, Skinner removes scruples to exterminate men by mass murder and atomic war, just like man has no scruples now to exterminate rats. It is also irrational to consider any theory about the origin of man to be more than an hypothesis, since man has no witness for his beginning and can only speculate about his origin. The theory of evolution is inconsistent since it holds that man evolved from a -non-man but offers no explanation why men comprehend this evolution. Rationality can not cover up for our filthiness. But, faith in Christ gives peace of mind.

Commuhism reactionary The popularity of Maoism and other branches of Stalinism is not very high in developed countries nowadays. The people do not agree, of course, with horrors and murders. That is however only the surface of the story. Behind the terror, there is basically wrong philosophy of history offered by Marxism, Leninism, Stalinism, Maoism and other branches of the same teaching. A letter signed G.M. (chevron, Nov. 11, a distorted 1977) claimed that I “showed view of Marxism; when I “related Marxism and perverted the totalitarian to communism”. . . etc. G.M. also promised some kind of proposal as to how Marxism may still save this world. I am looking forward to his future letters, but would like to avoid a misunderstanding. Therefore, I will explain what my beliefs concerning Marxism - are. Then, G.&I. may tell-me where I am wrong. The essence of Marxism may be summarized as follows: The material base, i.e. the production of goods, is the primary factor in the development of society. Anything else, the character of the state, the culture, religion, human thought’are secondary, dependent on the material base of the society. This means that the class which produces the goods is the most important social class, and only this class may be progressive, i.e. influence positively the development of society to a more just, more humanistic state. This class, reasoned Marx, is the proletariat. Proletariat is a class which does not own anything but the working power. It is a class of manual workers selling their working power for a bare living. With further development of capitalism, the numbers of proletariat will increase, and one day, the capitalists, representing a small minority of the population, will be expropriated, and their property, the means of production, will become public. This will automatically change the character of the society. Society will become just, and socialism will alter human psychology; man shall become better,‘more altruistic, more human. Throughout the works of Karl Marx, you will find quotations showing that this short summary is correct. Is all this true? If it was true one hundred years ago, is it still true? In the XIXth century, it was the proletariat which, using their hands and rather simple tools, produced the goods. Manual work using simple tools is not very productive, and nowadays, it is a source of goods in only some relatively undeveloped countries. The manual workers produce goods in our society as well. But, they use equipment designed by trained specialists. They work in a factory designed and organized by trained

specialists. Due to this, all workers depend in their work on the accumulated intellectual experience of mankind. My car was constructed by manual workers in Detroit or Oshawa. The know-how, the design of the car, the design of the means of production which the worker uses, is however the result of the intellectual activity of many people who are not blue-collar workers. We may call them intellectuals, but the most appropriate word I know may be brain worker. They are not necessarily graduates of the university. The previous intellectual activity of mankind tremendously improved the productivity of manual work. It is estimated that one blue-collar worker in U.S. industry is able to perform the work of 1500 workers using simple tools. The energy he uses is not the energy of his hands; it is the energy supplied by nature and utilized due to the effort of scientists, designers of the equipment and organizers of the work. What is, therefore, the source of the wealth of our society? Is it manual labor? Definitely not. It is the activity of numerous brain workers who explore the nature and new sources of materials and energy, who design new means of production, who organize the production, supply and distribution of goods. Without them, we would live in a society which Marx predicted: A society of manual workers who become poorer and poorer, whereas the parasites who just own the means of production become richer and richer. Under these conditions, the proletarian revolution would be the only way by which to solve the mounting social problems. Marx, however, overlooked what was probably already known in his time, and what is very obvious now: That our species is Homo sapiens, wise man, and the wealth of our society does not depend on how much we work, or how many people work, but how wisely we work. The development of our society went, therefore, in anotherdirection. The numbers of proletariat, i.e. workers . who own nothing but their working power, increased only to a certain time, and then, it slowly decreased. In the United States, the number of white-collar workers already exceeded the number of blue-collar workers in early fifties. In Canada, the number of people working in industry is relatively lower now than ten years ago, and does not exceed 25% of all employees in the national economy. In spite of this, we are richer now than ten years ago. It is as simple as that: The more brain workers the nation has, the richer it is. Even the character of the blue-collar class has changed. They are not poorer than one hundred years ago. They comprise what Marx described as the worker aristocracy. They participate in the wealth of society. Many of them are highly skilled and are actually brain workers as well. Because the wealth of society depends primarily upon the brain workers and because they, by their activity, change the character of production, they are also the most progressive group within our society. They are real revolutionaries, although some of them would never admit this. What kind of revolutionary is a person who studies reproduction in the blackflies, or the utilization of solar energy? Still, they are gradually changing the character of our society. And those who call themselves revolutionaries and dream about the victory of the proletariat are false revolutionaries. There is not, there never was and there will never by any victorious proletariat. Proletariat is disappearing as a class, and nobody feels sorry for that, including proletarians. The experience of countries that changed from private to public ownership of the means of production, i.e. that carried out the socialist revolution, and believed that this would change society have shown that this is not so. There is no classless society in Russia sixty years after revolution nor in China almost thirty years after revolution. The revolution was a useless holocaust. On the contrary, the contradictions between classes are much sharper there than here. The theory that the manual worker means more to society than the brain worker, and the accumulation of the control of wealth into the hands of a few party officials became a

serious brake in social development. The military industry in Russia is probably the only exception, but the same application of the scientific revolution to their civil administration, industry and agriculture would even there deeply transform the power structure. I guess that this is the only hope of mankind. The example of Russia shows that everything what stands in the way of the intellectual development of mankind is reactionary. The teaching of Karl Marx is therefore reactionary. A generation of economists, sociologists and philosophers who were able to watch, or even to live in a system based upon an incorrect assumption became the most eloquent critics of Marxism. The French authors, e.g. Jean-Francois Revel, and Czechoslovak economists and philosophers, e.g. Eugen Loebl, are the authors who should be studied. Boring repetition of quotations from a XIXth century philosopher will get us nowhere. All that I have said, however, does not mean that the material wealth of the society is somehow directly transformed into its social and cultural life. Marx was probably wrong even in this. But, about it later. Stanislav Reinis Psychology 7

KFGF is the greatest The Karl Friedrich Gauss Foundation has got to be one of the best organizations on this slumbering campus. Sure they may be vile and pernicious, even obsessed and deranged. Why they’re probably “the tool of the government and industry too,“:‘: but they are also the only group that puts some life and humour into this school. If there were more groups like this on campus you might actually see people having fun and not wasting their lives trying to spread their useless, boring, trivial, self-centred, humourless, bullshit political views. (I mean hey, Elvis is dead now too!) Life is a very funny thing, so don’t try and turn it into a bad joke for all of us. Joe Student *quoted from a song by Frank Zappa called “I’m the Slime”.

Rather than representing the onrush of your basic UW student, they can be easily traced to one very specific trend - small, but nonetheless important to eradicate. Hiding under humour of the lowest kind wz have the so-called Karl Friedrich Gauss Foundation. More precisely we have Goz Lyv and Herman Night. Hiding under the name Goz Lyv is Geoff Arthur, -a member of Collective” an anarchist the “ Fairview hangout. While some of Arthur’s acquaintances describe him as having no politics, it is clear by his attacks on progressives that his politics are of a most rabid, reactionary nature. Why aren’t you attacking Harry Parrott Mr. Arthur? Yes we know it’s all a big joke. And what about your partner in anarchy and degeneracy (and fellow KFGF’er) Nicola Santoro?

forth garbage? A pornographic rag called the sunday chevron recently seen on campus would welcome your ravings. So characters such as these, who if challenged would say they were progressive, are writing letters. But on what? Are they explaining anything? Are they engaged in principled debate? No! These two characters, who joined forces to write the “society for cutting up maoists” letter, have as their only interest attacking the true progressives, instead of the government which is attacking students. They are the real scum. The letters section of the chevron should be wiped clean of this dirt. Nina Tymoszewicz

KFGFis / imponsible It seems that the KFGF and their supporters have crawled out of the woodwork in order to force a confrontation between themselves an-d supporters of Mao TseTung. The poster of Mao and Hitler was pointless, silly and irresponsible. Obviously, they meant only to solemnize sensationalism. If a worthwhile discussion had been generated by their not-too-subtle ploy, I would be ‘the first to stand up and cheer. However, last weeks Feedback letters only served to further my impression that the poster was staged. It is a well-known fact that certain members of the KFGF love to bait AIAers. Indeed, I would not be surprised if the KFGF even wrote anti-KFGF letters “just for fun”. Their juvenile actions point to the failure of the social and political system which produced them.

This letter is addressed to the Chimera known as the KFGF, its various and sundry scatological anti-organs, SCUM, and other correspondents of the November 18 and November 25 Feedback, who wrote to villify and ridicule the protests lodged against a certain KFGF poster: If you can see no distinction between the place of Mao and the place of Hitler in history, it probably follows that neither are you able to make any distinction between edible food and a great seething lump of fetes, and would consume either (or Both) with alactrity. That is your problem. But the singularity of your consistently pusillanimous prose suggests that you are engaged in more than simply a glorification of your own chro-nit moral and ideological decay. At the very least, your moronic campaign to dump your accumulated defecations onto the pages of the chevron and see if anyone swallows it is doomed to failure. It won’t be the people one of you has gathered under the false rubric ‘necrophiles of third world. . . . . . ’ because they, unlike yourselves, have retained full possession of their faculties. M.

Smit smirks Last Friday started out as the usual hectic day around the Fed. offices. Smylie and Proudfoot were both on to me about the previous evening’s Council meeting and the several brews at the Grad club subsequent to that meeting made me feel particularly out-of-sorts in the morning. At noon I got my chevron and started to leaf through it. The issue wasn’t particularly‘ bad but it did little to bring me out of the mental and physical slump that I was experiencing.

gives”. Have you* become a chevric? A smirk and smile crossed his face and laughter followed as I gazed upon the front page. The Sunday Chevron! From that moment throughout the entire day and into the weekend I laughed. _ There is no doubt that the taste exhibited by some of the features was questionable. The fact remains though that at last some satirical humor appeared on the campus at the University of Waterloo. I know you guys in Eng Sot get carried away at times but congratulations, you really did something ’ for the students. My attitude is $*&% them is they can’t take a joke. (“Smylie develops Lockjaw” should win an award). There is no way that a NEWSPAPER like the chevron should adopt this satirical approach but it should take note! Never in my life have I encountered a newspaper that is produced by students and is so completely devoid of humour. Get with it chevron! Laughter is a healthy thing and the more you. suppress it in the paper the more your credibility dwindles. Humour and laughter are human traits and emotions. I’m sure you at the chevron don’t want people to get the wrong idea and start thinking that you have chemical reports for birth certificates. Rick Smit Federation of Students

Societiiss split / Lately I have heard about an attempt by some Architecture students to withdraw from the’ Environmental Studies Society. Now I know this is their right since Society fees are refundable, just like it is my right to withdraw from Mathsoc, just like it will soon be the right of Engineering (and other) students to withdraw from the Federation. However, if they withdraw and try to form their own departmental society, I feel that neither the Federation nor the University, nor any Faculty Society should recognize such a departmental society, nor collect fees for such a group. If people in a department form a society or club, they should do so-like the Computer Science-Club and collect their own fees. I am getting a little tired of small faculties splitting into two or more societies. They try to get the Federation to recognize their mini-societies as normal societies and try to get full votes on the Committee of Presidents. This is not right as there should be either one central society representing the whole faculty or the vote should be divided proportionately (ie. if Chem Eng split from Engsoc and were recognized they should get about one-fifth of the Engineering vote ,- it depends on whether the division is by population or number of departments). Having made my feelings clear, I would like to give you my response to a move to separate society status by a department, such as Architecture. I would consider a move to be anti-society and against Society solidarity which we are trying to build in the face of refundable fees (witness the Engsoc-Mathsoc pub of December 1st). If such a departmental society were recognized, I would be inclined to recommend the Computer. Science Club withdrawing from Mathsoc, so Math could get two societies and another vote. I am tired of the two largest societies having faculty unity while the small faculties can’t get their acts together. J.J. Long

j The Ethiopian Peoples Revolutionary Party vehemently condemns the latest house-to-house searches launched by the desperate fascist regime of Colonel Mengistu in collaboration with the governments of the “Soviet” Union, Cuba and German “Democratic” Republic. In the most flagrant violation of the basic human rights of the towns poor, the fascist regime of Colonel Mengistu has started another round of house-to-house searches. Unlike the previous searches, the latest one was not announced before it occured. The fascists’ plan, as outlined by a special meeting of the city’s so-called “revolutionary defence committee”, was to launch a “surprise” house-to-house searches. Their first such “surprise” search took place on the night of October 10 on the 5th High Zone of Addis Abeba. The search turned out a total failure as the inhabitants of the area, organized-by our party and defended by our EPRA urban units, went into open battle with the search squads. The workers and the poor, who no longer mourn their dead, having taken the revolutionary path paved by their kin and kith, took up arms and sided with our party in an armed struggle to foil the

Admittedly, your comical “Sunday Chevron’ ’ issue has its good points, such as a humourous front-page story, and several good jokes. But I feel that there was far too much offcolour, sexist content contradictory to the content of the regular periodic issue. Of particular interest (or lack of) is the inclusion of the Sunday Shine Girl. This portrait does little to compliment a normally upstanding and informative campus newspaper. In addition to this outrage, one minority group was the subject of frequent“‘Anita Bryant”-styled racist tactics. I feel that similar letters of disapproval will curb further trys at such sick comedy, but d.on’t withdraw the issue completely. It has potential, and makes a good end-of-the-week tension reliever. Michelle Heritz 2A Applied Chem November 27,1977 will go down in history as the day the University of Waterloo printed it’s first truly great student newspaper thanks to the combined effort of the staff of both the CHEVRON and ENGINEWS:The coverage of campus events was extrordinarily diverse and relivant. The information presented was both detailed and forthright, (-something previous issues lacked extensively). Everything from the V 1 blaze’ to the ‘presentation of the Takith prize’ were included and covered brilliantly. The choice of the Sunday Shine Girl was fantastic as she displayed the ideal qualities of the perfect student and should be emu-

lated by all girls on campus. The feedback page contained some of the most informative and direct editorials ever written. (Does the editor use a rubber stamp to answer some of thesesletters?). In closing may I say that the Sunday Chevron will likely become a national institution in afew years if the engineers and chevrics stick together. Keep up the good work! T. Zyvitsky la Eng.

A hearty congradulations on your first issue of the SUNDAY CHEVRON. It was inspiring to see the CHEVRON staff cooperating with the.ENGINEWS staff to produce such a fine piece of journalism. However, I was most disgusted with the staffs efforts to degrade Alfred E. Newman to the level of Neil Docherty in the Sunday Sunshine Girl feature. To commit such an offence is an incredible blow to all moral standards in exsistance today. Such an injustice cannot go unpunished! Those persons responsible must pay! !

In the past, little time had been spent on amusing limerics, anecdotes jokes, and a brilliant front page “story” which I’m sure attracted an anwary passerby’s critical eye. Keeping the furmy section separate from the normal paper content was a brainstorm in itself. I also noted that your Chevron staff seems to be working much closer with the engineering faculty. Such inter-faculty collaboration (which should cover all faculties) is a desired goal of any campus paper. Keep up the good work, and keep those Sunday Chevrons rolling .

PRICE V.5 million

You can buy thebuildingfor the w7hrsity for--wait for it$26 million!! How would you like to ‘live in a building that is considered “non-prqfit” housing and have everyone make a bundle off you? That is the plight of the residents of UW’s Married Students’ Housing complex, where, the construction company, the government, and the university all gain at the expense of the students. The situation is coming to a head this month as the university and the tenants association enter negotiations on a proposed budget from the university which recommends a 16 per cent rent increase for next year. (The 16 per cent raise would set the rents at $193 a month for a 1 bedroom and $211 for a two-bedroom unit up from $166 and $182 respectively.) Ontario’s Rent Review legislation places a 6 per cent ceiling on rent increases, but not so for Married Students because it’s considered “non-profit” housing. The tenants association, however, is not impressed and is adamant that it won’t pay anymore than a 6 per cent hike. Their case is just and they shouldn’t give an inch. This concept of “non-profit” housing has about as many leaks in it as the apartments themselves. The 600 unit complex was built - better stated “thrown up” - by Cadillac Fairview in 1970-71. Since this is not a philanthropic organisation w-e can presume that the $7,437,366 they received for the job contributed in some way’ to the $3 million plus profit they registered that year - up 15 per cent from the year before. Cadillac walked off with its loot leaving the university with the mortgage and a complex which administrators admit was very poorly constructed. Soon afterwards it was found that the buildings couldn’t withstand the rain; it has now been discovered that the bathroom tiles are susceptible to shower water: the ground wires on the stoves have taken to falling off: much of the plumbing needs to-be replaced: and there are a host of other problems. Asked about some of these problems in summer 1976 UW architect Cliff Wilson told the chevron that the buildings were “not of the greatest quality”. Ted Nowak of physical resources also explained at that time that the government had been lax in its supervision and that in such a situation the “contractors can get away with things”. Well. Cadillac got away alright and now it is estimated that the complex is in need of over ti;bOO,OOO maintenance work. The administration has allocated about half of that figure for this year which constitutes a 50 per cent increase in last year’s allotment and is the second largest item in the proposed budget. The maintenance of the apartments is

going to cost each rent payer about $39 next year, about $14 more than it cost this year. It’s not their fault that Cadillac did a shoddy job under lax supervision but the students are being asked to pay for it. This same government which turned a blind eye to Cadillac’s practices is also fleecing the students with interest payments, The complex was built for the provincial government’s Ontario Student Housing Corporation at a cost of about $7.5 million, and then leased to the university on a 50 year mortgage set at 6.9 per cent. For the students who occupy the building that arrangement means they will have to cough-up $26 million in principle and interest SO that by the year 2021 the university will own the complex. The interest alone on this mortgage makes up the largest single item in the budget and will soak up about a third of the 1978-79 rent. For each rent payer that will average out to around $67 per month. What it all boils down to is that the Ontario government agency can make over $18 million on a $7.5 million investment; can do so off of students who will never own the buildings, and we are expected to believe that this is “non-profit” housing. The third largest item in the proposed budget is municipal taxes. Here again the students are actually victims of the Queen’s Park boys who as part of their cutbacks have not alloted the municipality sufficient funds to keep pace with inflation. So taxes are up and will soak up between $28 and $30 of the month’s rent; up between $2.50 and $2.80 on last year. Another major item is heating which is also up by over $2 a month per apartment and will take up between $15 and $18 of the month’s levy to help bolster the profits of one or other oil company. Also Ontario Hydro will do all right next year from Married Students’ Apartments. It will take another $1 per month from each rent payer. The crown corporation has been borrowing money at record levels in recent years so much of the $10 01-s I2 it will receive from the monthly rent will go to pay off some of its debts. All items inentioned comprise over 85 per cent of the proposed 197X-79 budget for the complex. Also the increase in them make up most of the proposed rent increase. What this “non-profit” housing adds up to is profit s all-round at the expense of students. When the Married Students Association sit down to negotiate this month they should stand firm at their 6 percent and ii‘the university wants more tell them to go see Cadi!lac Fair-view or the Ontario government. -chewron staff

David Angus, youth director for the Ontario PCs, apparently feels that Dr. Harry Parrott, the Minister for Colleges and Universities, has been unfairly criticized by students in Ontario. To “counteract” this bad press, Angus has written letters to some Conservative Party campus party presidents calling on them to ask their Tory followers to write letters to the editors of campus newspapers, praising Parrott’s activities, reports the Globe and Mail of Friday, November 25th. Angus provided two sample letters to his correspondents, one of which reads in part, “If those double-talking so-called student leaders would only listen, I think they’d find that Parrott has, for the first year ever, made the student assistance program run smoothly and efficiently.”

In justifying Angus called straightforward ever had.”

A previous holder of Parrott’s portfolio was Premier William Davis.- The reading of the above phrase sparked some reaction in Parliament. Angus, defending his statement, said, “! didn’t mean it to sound that way in any sense. I was really emphasizing the point that he’s a concerned man.” Parrott says he knew and approved of the campaign but did not know of the content of the letters. He says the Party’s effort to drum up student support is just part of the political game. -j.

For second straight year:

Naismith champs 9

Laurentian +

Laurentian won the Naismith champions hip for . the second straight year do.wning St. Mary’s 69-66. Laurentian made it to the finals by beating Waterloo 72-58 and WLU 89-72.

against McGill 97-70. McGill was not as strong as expected. The Warriors ran them down in the second half and early in the last ten minutes the Warriors themselves seemed to tire but they picked up again. Seymour Hadwen played another impressive game scoring 28 points. In the Warrior Laurentian game, coach Don McCrea started off with a game plan in which the Warriors were to attack Charlie Wise and Varick Cutler. The purpose was to try to get them into early foul trouble and force them to play defensively . The plan failed and the Warriors

dropped behind 16-4 and never recovered. Laurentian controlled the rest of the game. Laurentian showed a lot of class and poise through out the tournament and the fans at the game seemed to appreciate their play. The MVP was Bruce Burnett of Laurentian. Also on the All Star team was his teammate Charlie Wise, Frank White of St. Mary’s, Jim Zoet of Lakehead and Lorne Killion of WLU who tied Mike Moser’s record of 99 points in the tourny. Don McCrea said this was one of the most powerful All Star teams ever in the CIAU. -andrew

Poor ,percentage shooting The Athenas were in Thunder Bay this weekend for the Lakehead University Women’s Basketball Tournament. The team did fantastically well, making it to the championshipround to be beaten out by a scholars hip school from Alabama. Their first two games were won easily, 60-36 over the University of North Dakota, and 60-37 against Carleton U. The coach of the Carleton team commented that it was the best game they’d played so far this season. For North Dakota, it was their first game of the season. Athena coach Sally Kemp feels they will be a fairly strong team after a little more experience.

Peter Greenway (43) gets in behind Varick Cutler (hidden) and Mike vihill (3) of the Laurentian Voyageurs for an easy layup. Tournament Bruce Burnett (20) arrives too late to stop Creenway.

In the semi-finals, UW met up with the height of the host team and came out victorious. Having lost to Lakehead at the Guelph Tournament by only one point, Waterloo was eager to redeem themselves. Both teams were playing well, having one of those really great games. Ahead 32-27 at the half, UW was down by one point with eighteen seconds to go in the game. Taking their time to set up the play, Waterloo waited it out only to take a long shot from the corner that missed. Sue Porter made a crucial rebound to take it back up and put it in the hoop. The final score then was 56-55 in favour of Waterloo.

With.20 points against Lakehead and 12 to 14 in all the other games, Sue Lindley had a great weekend and played well. Another guard showing her potential was Shelley Fillion with 8 points against both Carleton and North Dakota. Jan McMullan, with an injured foot, wasn’t on the court much, and so was not able to be effective.

Coach Kemp was really pleased with the team’s performance overall. They seemed to come together as a unit in these games, something that hadn’t been happening previously.

In the final game against Tuskegee Institute of Alabama, the Athenas met their match. Tuskegee had beaten three teams already by more than forty points each, and had only just begun to warm up. They went all out for their final game, holding nothing back. Waterloo managed to break the Alabama press, but were intimidated by them just the same. This resulted in poor percentage shooting. The zone defense was forcing shots from the outside, some of which found their mark, but not the majority. Tuskagee has an incredibly fast

Two more of Canada’s top swim teams were left in the wake of the powerful Warrior aquatic squad as Waterloo extended its record to four wins against no losses. McGill and Western were the most recent victims of the CIAU swimming champs. On Friday night McGill’s talented few could not match Waterloo’s depth as the final score read 7 l-36 in favour of the Warriors. Ron Campbell captured three firsts while Dave Heinbuch, Brian Harvey, Tim Wilson and John

Heinbuch had two wins apiece. UW swim team gives out the “Animal” award consisting of a bear trap and chain to the swimmer showing the most desire during a given swim meet. Against McGill the winner of the coveted prize was Carl Cronin due to his super swims in the free events. The Western meet was a more challenging battle for the Warriors since some of UW’s big point getters did not make the trip to London. Waterloo rose to the occasion as Dave Heinbuch and Brian Mar-

vey scored three victories each against some excellent Western competition. The “Animal” award went to Murray White after he upset Western’s Paul Thompson in the 200 IM. Murray also anchored the 4x 100 free relay in a speedy 48.9 seconds. Diver Steve Brooks collected much needed points on both boards as the final score of the meet was Waterloo 60 and Western 53. The Warriors next meet will be in Florida during their Christmas training camp. -ron
