Editorial Take~a moment to reflect If Q ship of dreams bid me come, ’ would I board it If I had their gold in my hands, would I hoard it If I knew the trials I must face, would I curry on at all? Sailing into tomorrow, living day to day That’s all I can afford to do, and all I’11 ever pay Is a song to sing to thank you for making me alive And a prayer to bring me comfortLord help us to survive. Olivia Newton-Johri If only it were that simple. Life. It seems to be getting more complicated all the time. We are mo,ving
too fast-all of us. The pressure to get ahead has become much too strong, and many of us are finding .that we just cannot handle it any *more. But what can we do about it? This weekend is Thanksgiving. Now don’t get the wrong idea. This is not going to be a sermon. Nor is it going to be a lecture on “We must be thankful.” However, just because otir days of public school and restrictions are over, it does not mean that we should cast aside such concepts. Of course we have much more work to do now-our autonomous lives are sometimes very hard to lead, but we should never
lose sight of the simple things. It may seem like a ridiculous question it itself, but how many of us can honestly say-that we have recently taken notice of our natural surroundings ? How many of us have noticed the changing colours or- smelled the of the leaves, sweetness in the air? Such activities, no matter how mundane they may sound, are not a waste of time. Just think about how you’d feel if you could not enjoy the world in those ways. If you were blind, for example? Taking things for granted is very easy to domuch too often we forget what it is to appreciate.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. Tl-+s weekend is Thanksgiving. Do yourself a favour. Take advantage of it. Life does not have to be complicated. Each and every one of us has inside the potential for peace. Our only mistake is that we move so fast that we pass it by without even noticing. As the song suggests, we should feel extremely lucky just to be alive; just to be able to really experience this world. And what better time to start than now? Think about it. And have a happy holiday. Lisa

If you have not found a place to live as yet, or you’re not happy with your living accomodations, here are some interesting statistics, courtesy of the Off Campus Housing Office. Current combined enrolment (undergraduate and graduate) is roughly 14,500.

If $0~ are one of them, as I am, you’ve probably looked at bulletin boards in the Campus Centre Housing Office and just about every other building on ‘campus. Because of an increasing enrolment over the ,last 5 years (generally speaking) there has been a slight shift upward in the percentage of students that are looking for housing, so obviously the finding is getting toug-
her. This is a basic supply-anddemand situation that is further complicated by the fact that students are not considered by the “real world” to be “goo*d tenant? ’ (i.e. th‘ey may only stay for 8 months, or’4 months if they are coop); student attitudes do not fit those of the adult population - the kind of people with which multiple listing services and rental agencies are used to dealing. What one ends up with is a very real and large demand, an? a very
limited supply. This, in turn, has a tendency to lead to a number of related effects: higher than normal rents, damage clauses and deposits, houses in need of repair, crowding of living conditions in order to make the rent more reasonable, and lastly, “slumlords” who exploit the situation to the fullest. Let’s face it, it’s a very lucrative business, and until something changes drastically, the student will continue to get the short end of the stick. Tom McAnulty

Fee increase SeLeral matters of vital concern to post-secondary students highlighted the fall conference of the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) held in Ottawa last weekend. A proposed OFS fee hike, and strategy to deal with the Ontario government dominated the dramapacked conference. The final report of the Special Coordinating Committee on Resource Planning [SCRAP) caused by far the most excitement among delegates from 19 post-secondary institutions. It contained many proposals for an improved OFS which would offer more services ~a~~~~~“h~~~“,“~~~~~~~~~ home, and create a structured undergraduate commission. In light of proposed improvements and the fact that OFS had not raised its student fee since 1974, SCRAP asked for a fee increase from 75 cents a term to two dollars a term. (OFS’s levy is included in UW student Federation fees.) ‘Chairperson Chris McKillop stressed in workshops that the question was not so much about money as it was about “what kind of OFS you want

Since SCRAP requiredatwothirdsmajoritytopass at the closing plenary on Sunday, spirited lobbying had proceeded to a fever pitch by Saturday night. It continued from the plenary floor on Sunday, after the OFS executive circulated a report to the plenary embracing recommendations made the previous day during committee sessions. The report amended its fee hike to $1.50 per term. UW’s delegation had a strong presence all weekend but particularly on Sunday when Mark McGuire told the plenary “We can support SCRAP or we can watch OFS evaporate in the next two years,” He also offered manpower aid to poorer delegations such as Trent in organizing the necessary campus referendums on the fee hike and called for others to do the same. the amended Incredibly, SCRAP passed unanimously after Queen’s, which had been expected to lead a non-support faction at the plenary surprised everyone by voting in favour, Queen’s said that they were experiencing their own problems with OFS but had

S Student representatives from 20 Ontario universities and colleges along with executives of the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) met with Universities and Colleges Minister Bette Stephenson on Wednesday in Toronto. Stephenson was assisted by Ben Wilson, assistant to the Deputy Minister, Bill Clarkson, Director of Student Awards, Carolyn Barrett, university/government liason officer, and her secret ary, Rick Donaldson. Stephenson was an hour and a half late for the meeting, which was supposed to begin at 4:00. Commencing at 5:30, the meeting lasted until 7:00, with Stephenson answering questions from the students. However, several students who spoke to Imprint felt that she avoided these questions or fired them right back at the students. When asked about the federal government’s plan to raise the Research and Development percentage of the Gross NationalProduct (GNP) to 2 l/2 percent, she replied, “I don’t know if it’s the appropriate percentage or not.” She also added that she did not know the intentions of the Clark government on the matter. Research and Development allocations are a vital part of university funds.

Women’s Centres, and their role on campuses, assertiveness, pro-choice politics and sexual harassment were the main topics at the first-ever women’s caucus of the Ontario Federation, of Students fOFS) fall conference held in Ottawa last weekend. the caucus meeting took place on Thursday afternoon before the opening plenary of the main conference. Most delegates feel that more time will be needed at the winter conferenceinordertodealwith women’s issues adequately. Lively discussion ensued after the delegates read a questionaire concerning assertive behavior. It was felt that aggressiveness should not be confused with assertiveness. Many delegates [most of whom sit on student government executives) felt that they were “getting stuck with certain jobs” because they were women, and that assertiveness training pro-grams would be valuable for
them and for other women in similar situations. A lengthy discussion on sexual harassment evolved from a proposed survey (to be distributed on campuses at a later date) on sexual harassment of ,a11 students on campus. The issue of sexism in advertising and as a promotional gimmick by entertainers resulted in a motion which was presented to the closing plenary of the OF’S conference on Sunday. The: motion states that the “OFS urge its members to lobby various entertainment agenties and discuss this issue with its entertainment directors, in order to discourage the Practice of using sexism in promoting entertainment On camPuses."ItPassedbya large majority, which incuded a vote from UW.

Matthews urges students to participate more at UW The University of Waterloo is a large dommunity. Each day, approximately 15,000 people, students, faculty and staff members work and study on the campus. One of the roles of a President is to try to ensure that the necessar-y programs that many will see the benefits from, and take some time for, participation in are encouraged. But in a community as large as the University of Waterloo, where there tire wide ranges of opinions and personal goals, many compromises we hope creative are necessary compromises. For that reason, it is helpful if we can be fully aware of the views of a large number of people. Over the last ten years, we have developed at Waterloo a variety of mechanisms by which students, faculty and staff have the opportunity to make their views known and to have an influence on the course of the University. I have found the advice that I have received to be invaluable in making the decisions necessary to ensure that Waterloo is a distinguished place for learning. Of course, the highest piiority for each student must be success in his or her academic work. At the same time, I hope that many will see the benefits from, and take some time for, participation in the development of policies and programs of the University. The opportuare extensive. Students are nities regularly involved on the following Boards and Committees within the University:
President, Vice-President, Academic and Deans Advisory Committee on Traffic and . Parking Parking Appeal Board Bookstore Committee Food Services Committee Advisory Committee on Campus Health Promotion In addition to serving on universitywide committees, stlldents serve’ on various committees within each faculty as well as on the Village councils ifi the student residences. The Federation of Studknts and the student societies in the various faculties provide still other ways in which students may become involved in the university.
Board ,of Governors (2 undergraduate and 1 graduate student elected by-and from the Senate.] Senate (7 undergraduate students and 4 graduate students elected by the students. (The President of the Federation of Students sits on Senate as an exofficio member.) Graduate and undergraduate students also have member-’ ship on the Committees of the Senate.) In addition, students are appointed to a wide range of advisory committees. Among them are: Campus Centre Board President’s Advisory Committee Equal rights for Women and (PACER) . Search and Nominating Committees

Many students who have been active in one Or more of these activities in the past have told me that they found the experience useful in their own personal development. Certainly, their contributions have been of value to the University. I encourage any student who is interested in the work of any of these bodies to be in touch with the University Secretariat, extension 2749, or with the chairman of the board, committee or council of their choice.

“All right!” I cried in my anguish and my pain, “I am 79173441. I have no other identification - I need no other identification! Those eight digits are the sum total of my existence; without them I am nothing!” “Now, now,” the corn.puter placatingly responded, “You know better than that. Your words are, well, nothing more than that. Words. Hollow. Empty. Devoid of any meaning because you do not mean them.” “What am I to do?” I sobbed. “Renounce your sins against society!” it roared. “Be happy that you have been given the opportunity to be79173441. There are children in poor backward nations who would give their right arms to obtain half your digits!” The computer’s righteous wrath descended upon me like a series of blows, but I felt the need to continue my defense. “But...” I began, only to be cut off. “My boy,” it said in a manner indicating an uneven mixture of boredom, superiority and suppressed rage, “You obviously have not taken into consideration our point of view...” “Oh?” I asked, more to fill the pause than anything else. “Of course. There are more than ten thousand students at this University, and hundreds of thousands across the country. How are my poor processed chips supposed to accurately keep track of so many pieces of information?” “Perhaps,” I began again, “But...” “You take having a number,” the computer continued, all but ignoring what I had to say, “As if it were a negative thing. Why? What, after all, is in a name?” “A name is mine!” I blurted out, unable to stop myself. “It signifies me, an individual.” The computer emitted a sound not unlike a human sigh. “Such...illogic!” it quietly said (under its breath?) In the pause that followed, I studied the machine. I wondered what strange machinations we.re going on behind that cool, silvery, frame, but such things are beyond my comprehension.

“3441,” the computer finally said, shocking me by using the formal part of my number, “There tire well over one million men with the name John Doe. There are easily hundreds of thousands of women with the name Susan Smith. Your own name, which is by no means common, is shared by hundreds of people across the world. Can you not see that it is only your number which sets you apart from the rest of the human race...only your number which gives you your indi-a viduality?” I laughed. Well, perhaps laugh isn’t quite the word - my single laugh exploded from within me: I snorted. On the spur of the moment, I made a less than human noise. Still, the concept struck me as being laughable at the time. “Not only are you 79173441," the computer continued, totally ignoring my outburst, “But I also know you by the number 1089. 472 362 508,14033 and 884-3068 are also designated to you. There can be no doubt as to who you are!” I stared at the thing, futilely. As one of the last fighters for human dignity, I realized that I was putting forth an awful argument. My belief in it began to slip. “Well?” the computer impatiently asked. Well? Without those numbers, I would no.t be a student at a University, would not be able to eat or be called on the phone, would not be covered by social insurance. Perhaps I really did need my numbers... You know, when you look at it in the right light, the silvery exterior of the computer looks almost...noble? “What machine hath created, let no man put asunder,” I quoted, and smiled weakly. That seemed to appease it. “That’s better,” it warmly responded. “Your lesson is far from over, but you have taken the all-important first step.” “Am I free to go, then?” “Of course,” the computer stated. Then, as I was leaving, it added: “Next!” Next? I wonder... ’

Friday,
Other examples were given of present-day influences which demonstrated the lack of input the maritimes have into their own economy. Foreignowned corporations, of which there arti many, do not help the economy. Situated around the strait of Cape Breton, are three foreign-owned corporations. They create jobs but the profits and capital made are not invested or circulated locally.
the economy unless old structures are changed. Watt felt that there were three changes to be made if the Maritimes wanted to overcome their economi’c disparity. The first change would be the creation of a national industrial policy to strengthen the reaional one. The second woild be increased pressure . for greater investments for resource development. Thirdly, there would have to be an adjustment of the class ‘structure-the workers would. have a say in what is done with - the resources with which they themselves are involved. If these were implemented, perhaps the - maritimes could-fend for themselves and prosper. Fran Helpert Karen Manning
Housing Act May Not Improve Situation The new Residential Tenancy Act may or may not be beneficial to students, according-to the Legal Resource Centre’s Leslie Robinson. Under the Landlord Tenant Act (LTA), the relationship between the landlord and the tenant was considered to be a contractual one. Under the new act, however, this contractual nature has been altered. “A major change,” says Robinson, “is the allowance of house rules. The tenant is notified of these rules when he or she moves into a house or apartment,” she says, “but the landlord may legally change the rules at any time during the tenancy.” On the other hand, the new Act will facilitate M ability of the tenant to have repairs made by the landlord. Under the old legislation, (LTA) the tenant would have to apply to the Country Court to enforce the section of the Act ordering the landlord to make repairs. To most people, notes Robinson, this is a somewhat intimidating procedure. The new Act, however, allows the tenant to apply directly to a Residential Tenancy Commissioner, who may in turn order the landlord to make the necessary repairs. “The whole issue,” says Robinson, “revolves around the increased dependence upon the discretion of the individual commissioner, and that which he deems to be reasonable.

Underdevelopment
John Watt, a second year Phd candidate studying the New development of Brunswick, gave a Brown Bag Seminar on the Underdevelopment of the maritimes last Wednesday. His talk centered ona historical overview of the maritime’s economic structure. Tracing the development of the maritimes, Watt stated that basically little has changed in the fundamental economic problems of the area, and that compared to the rest of Canada, these provinces are vastly underdeveloped. He said that underdevelopment could be defined or measured in ternis of economics statistics, such as the earned income per person or the unemployment rates. Figures for 1972-1976 showed that people of the maritimes earned 67.5 per cent of the Canadian average and that unemployment was 160.3 per cent of the average. He cited some causes for this disparity between the maritimes and the rest of Canada. The small market of the provinces, the lack of capital, the scarcity of entepreneurial skills and the high cost of obtaining raw materials has always hindered the area economically. Watt stressed the point that “underdevelopment is a process and not a conditipn” and is “unique and internal to a specific area.” He pointed out that there were specific historicalreasons for the underdevelopment of the maritime’s economic character. The National Policy, adopted in 1879 provided tariff barriers which protected the manufacturing of central Canada. Since that period, the maritimes have been cut off from the central manufacturing wealth and have concentrated o‘n the extraction of raw materials. The provinces have, in effect, become the hinterland of Canada. The emphasis, even in pre-confederation days, on the exporiing of goods has created many problems for the maritimes today. Watt pointed out that “backward and forward links into aneconomy make it diversified.” The maritimes are lacking in this well-rounded type of economy. Because they are “distorted” towards exporting their products they are, as well, exporting jobs that could otherwise be created in the provinces.

Profit
Teenage Head, which played last Thursday, Sept. 27, grossed a profit of ‘$613.59 over subsidy; however, Denise Donlon, Board of Entertainment Programmer, was not happy. She almost withheld payment for the band, One reason was because the band was 20 minutes late for both performances. The band’s regular management was in Florida and the replacement managers could not control. the band properly. Most of the 700 people in attendance (100 had to be turned away at the door), enjoyed the performance, though. Donlon attributes this to the fact that the people enjoyed the punk rock atmosphere although it was amateur in her opinion. The concert was subsidized $500 to allow a low cover charge. This low admission made for a capacity crowd and a large profit. This seems to justify the headaches in producing such a show and thus the Feds will be scheduling more punk rock concerts for the future.
Sherbrooke Honours B.C. Matthews Dr. Burton C. Matthews, president, University of Waterloo will be awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Sherbrooke at a special convocation celebrating the Quebec university’s 25th anniversary, on Friday, Oct. 5. He will be one of five persons receiving honorary doctorates. The others are: Msgr. Maurice Vincent,
.
Sherbrooke’s first recteur; Msgr. Roger Maltais, recteur of Sherbrooke from 1965 to 1975; Am”pah G. Johnson, founding recteur of the University of Benin, at Lome, and Dr. Gabriel Cau, president of the scientific and medical University of Grenoble, France. Dr. Matthews has been president of the University of Waterloo since 1970. Waterloo has had close ties with the University. of Sherbrooke for many years. In the early 60’s Sherbrooke became the first university in Quebec and second in Canada to utilize the cooperative education system of alternating terms of work and study. Waterloo, which had introduced cooperative education to Canada at its founding in 1957, assisted Sherbrooke in implementing the system and the two universities have’since used the same academic timetable of three fourmonth terms a year so that companies in Quebec could employ students conveniently from both universities for their work terms.
Campus Centre Board Elections Coming Up The Campus Centre Board is the university department responsible for maintaining university policies and procedures in the Campus Centre. This means that any broad questions of principle or Campus Centre policies are brought to the Campus Centre Board for discussion and ratification. The Campus Centre Board is also responsible for any large capital expenditures or alterations to the physical premises is the Campus Centre. The Campus Centre is central to the pulse of on-campus student life. Of late there has been an increased effort to get faculty and staff in invoived in Campus Centre activities as well. For instance, the Great Pumpkin Crafts Fair had extended hours both on Thursday and Friday. Some other events sponsored by the Campus Centre Board are Wednesday night Cinema Gratis, flea markets, and various forms of entertainment. It is vital to have an active Campus Centre Board willing to take the timeand effort to ensure the upkeep and smooth running of the Campus Centre. This is a chance for everyone to have a say in the quality of life on campus. To get involved in the Campus Centre Board, submit your name for nomination. There are eight undergraduate board representaiives (one from each faculty), one faculty, one staff, and one graduate representative. Details and nomination slips are available at the Turnkey Desk in the Campus Centre and from the University Secretariat, Needles Hall. The nomination deadline is 4:00 p.m., October 25.
t Elected Megan Jentz, a second year math student from Brantford, was elected president of the Village 2 council last Monday (October l), by a margin of two votes. She is the first female council president in either Village. Jentz had said that the runner-up, Don Genova, will be her vice-president. This is Jentz’s second year living in the Village, and she feels that she can help make the Village continue to be a good place to live. “I live here and I want the Village to run well,” she said. Among her ideas for the village are more social activities (boat races, coffee-and-donut hour), more sports, and an overall feeling of belonging. Jentz had said that she wants to eliminate quad rivalries and establish a feeling of being in Village 2. “Being in Village z is more important than being in North Hall or West Hall or whatever,” she said. “‘The Village is more than just a place to live, it’s a place to socializc; it’s a community.”

UWO looks at OPIRG
The University of Western Ontario’s Student’s Council (USC) is making a sudden and concerted effort to re-define the terms of reference for OPIRGWestern. Alfred Apps, president of the USC has called for a referendum (for October 17, 18) and is asking that students change OPIRG’s mandate, creating a research organization, (originally called Research Western in Apps’ plan) whose main concern would be student - interest research. At present, OPIRGWestern receives a $3.00 refundable fee from students. If the USC has its way, at least $1.50 of that fee will be taken out of OPIRG’s hands and used for campus research. Both USC and OPIRG officials believe there is a need for such research. Here the similarities in their views end. OPIRG officials believe the nature of that research falls within the purview of theNational Union of Students (NUS) or the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS). Neither body has research repre. sentatives on individual member campuses. Diane Heeringa, OPIRG staff worker, feels that USC could easily establish its own research body out of its $1.5 million budget. Apps’ solution is to turn OPIRG-Western into that body. However, as Heeringa pointed out, when students voted in the 1977 referendum in order to establish OPIRG-Western, the mandate stated that the research organization was to engage in, charitable research to provide a bridge between the community and the university, to sponsor educational programs on environmental and consumer issues and to make students’ education relevant to society. Also included in the constitution of OPIRGWestern is the directive to become part of an independent, province-wide research group examining broader issues relevant to society at large. To fulfil1 this part of their purpose a
percentage of the funds collected at Western go to the provincial office based in Toronto. Last-year that figure was $14,000. According to Heeringa, in order to fulfil1 the original mandate, OPIRG needs full funding. Nevertheless, qPIRG has offered two compromise sit- ! uations. They have offered to fund for one year a group which would research student-interest issues. This would permit the USC to form their own group and obtain, by going to the student population, their own fees to run it. In addition, they suggested lowering the amount going to the provincial office by $5,000. Both offers were rejected by the USC. ‘Meanwhile Apps, in preparation for the referendum, has stopped all funding of OPIRG programming. He is permitting payment of salaries and regular office expenses, but sources claim, that he considers programming to be propaganda at this stage. He maintains that the moratorium on programming will have little effect, but, according to OPIRG staffers, this is a crucial time for OPIRG in reaching new students, and their programs which have been in preparation for some time are now up in the air. Apps contends that there is “serious discontent” among the student population with OPIRGWestern. He cites their low profile (a situation which is apparently exacerbated by Apps’ moratorium on programming); the low productivity of the local (the third largest in the province) and the “syphoning” off of funds to the provincial office as reasons for the discontent. APPS claims to be “protecting the students’ money.” Laura Ramsey, news editor for UWO’s student paper, the Gazette, discounts the issue of “serious discontent.” She observed that the issue is a very emotional one among USC and OPIRG staffers, and implied that the “serious discontent” arose not from the students but from the emotional nature of the
conflict. She further observed that because of OPIRG’s low profile, most students are not even aware of OPIRG’s presence. Apps also claims that OPIRG-Western is in a different situation on campus than other OPIRG chapters because they are part of the USC. In fact, OPIRG staffers are officially employees of the USC. Apps feels that this gives him the “moral authority”, as their employer, “to go to the students.” Whereas Apps claims that he “tried to point out to OPIRG how student issues fitted into their mandate” Ramsey believes that he originally objected that OPIRG was not carrying out its mandate. Upon discovering that the mandate did not include the researching of student issues, he began to demand ‘that OPIRG change its mandate. Under OPIRG’s terms of reference, the USC must ratify any changes to the mandate or constitution but has no right to initiate, unilaterally, such changes. Apps claims he is responding to the voice of discontented students. Heeringa and Ramsey argue that he is acting only in concert with the USC. If the USC is successful in its referendum, all parties agree it will mean the withdrawal %,of Western’s chapter from the provincial organization, and the, de facto, death of OPIRGWestern. According to Apps’ plan, the USC would then add one extra staff person to the research organization, give it a new mandate and a new constitution. Half of the new mandate would have the organization researching such issues as “tenure, underfunding, student assistance programs and the quality of teaching.” The other part of the organization would look into environmental concerns, and community education, but on a local, not a provincial, level.

CUP Briefs Tougher Government Policy for Student Loan Default OTTAWA - The federal government is instituting a “get tough” policy with people who default on their student loans. At one time these debts were neglected by former students and the government alike. Bell says the new measures have resulted in about a seven per cent retrieve1 rate. “The RCMP will knock on your door, they can garnishee your wages and y ou will be blacklisted from further government assistance,” says Bryce Bell, a student assistance officer at Algonquin College. Bell says if the person cannot make full payments and shows good faith-by talking his financial problems over with his or her bank, no problems should arise. But those who skip town will have their case given to a collection agency, he said.
NUS May Be Consulted Before U.I. Changes
OTTAWA Employment and immigration minister Ron Atkey agreed September 17 to involve the National Union of Students in a consultative process taking place before any changes in unemployment insurance are introduced. In the first meeting between NUS and Atkey, the minister said the confidential government paper outlining possible cuts in unemployment benefits is only a “discussion paper” and that the government will be seeking input from labour and women’s groups as well as from NUS, according to NUS chairperson Alex Daschko. At the meeting NUS representatives outlined their concern about the possible effects on students of changes discussed in the paper, which was leaked to the press earlier in September, said NUS researcher Jeff Parr.

They also occupied university buildings and marched through downtown Moncton. In a letter sent to the students not to be re-admitted the administration justified its action by quoting the general rule number one of the university calender, which stipulates, “The university reserves the right to suspend, expel or refuse admission to any student who does not follow university rules or whose conduct has been judged detrimental to the universit y.” In addition the secretary-general of the students’ federation and the editor of the student newspaper were also refused re-admission for publishing an article that was critical of university employees. The article which was the cause of the other two students’ non readmission, published in the student newspaper Le Front, criticized the director of student services and an offer of the department. The article is now before the Supreme Court of New Brunswick because it is allegedly libellous. The students were told during the summer they would not be re-admitted but the editor was later allowed to return to the university after appealing the decision. The U de M students’ federation reports that many telegrams and letters of support for the seven students. have been received from student associations across Canada.’ The National Union of Students (NUS) is helping organize protests against the decision. NUS executive secretary Morna Ballantyne said the administration should not have refused re-admission to the two while the court had not ruled on the libel case; “The university should not take the law of the land into their own hands,” she said.

Anti-democratic EdDear Repressive, itor, if I may refer to you as such: I am a modest, if brilliant man. I have traditionally kept the vast knowledge of the world which I posess “close to the my enlightened chest”, as it were; ldialectical monologue has traditionally been reserved only for those enlightened enough to appreciate it, viz. myself. In this way has some stability been bequeathed to the ,world, unaware of the society-shattering impact of MacCow Thought. I, in return, have spared myself the tiresome, if trivial chore of refuting the numerous criticisms launched by pragmatists and other trouble-makers at the first sign of unique intellectual iachievement. However, recent. situations have recently developed on campus recently which cry out for action, and action of the sort that only one such as I (or my party comrades, of course) could possibly perform with success. Coincidentally, this situation is one which also involves me personally in my capacities as an

The facts are this: several weeks ago, in a show of camaraderie and support for the student body, I consented to let my picture appear on the cover of Imprint, albeit in a carefully constructed disguise., Despite the treachery of a former staffer (one Omni Ersatz) in appending a name to the photograph when I had explicitly requested anonymity, I was satisfied that I had demonstrated to one and all that I was “one of the gang”, if in the upper echelons of the said gang. Then, two weeks later, one of my office-mates was chosen by Fate, or Ms. Wood, to grace the cover of this journal with his progressive, if dainty, features. Great was his delight at this selection, and I, too, was pleased that such a simple-minded pleasure could do so much for a comrade, We were not so overjoyed, however, that we did not notice the effect that this event had upon our remaining companion in our third-

Dear Editor: One must commend Prof. Rowe’s efforts to eliminate sexism at the University of Waterloo by urging in the recent Senate Report that the university “continue in its efforts to attract qualified people” rather than “...qualified women.” (Imprint, Sept. 21). At present such statements are immaterial because virtually no people are being hired, or will be hired for the next 20 years, One won.ders, however, where Prof. Rowe was during past years when university was refusing to hire qualified women faculty members because they were women.

Ottawa, 1979. A UW co-op Arts student reported for a new term of employment only to discover the job had been cancelled. Despite the Department of Co-ordination and Placement’s knowledge of the job cancellation, they discouraged the student from entering further competition in an attempt to maintain past placement performance statistics. The Department failed to amend the situation. The student was therefore left on his own. In a few months thousands of you will be ushered into the work force and will inevitably encounter some problems. Will Needles Hall be impervious to your needs? Over one third of you were probably attracted to UW because of the increasing popularity of its cooperative system of study. And, if statistics are correct, 97% of you will find jobs, thanks to the Department of Placement. However, statistics fail to reveal the number of students who do not receive “Coordination.” Co-op student experiences, similar to that of the Ottawa student, only circulate as student rumour and become a source of student frustration. This column, called CHEW, intends to establish an alternate line of communication, between co-op students and the appropriate administrative bodies, through the investigation of questions and queries. Through contact with the Department of Co-ordination and Placement and interviews with the employer and student employee, CHEW plans to follow up expressed areas of concern. In addition, we will circulate a questionnaire and study the controversy surrounding the Arts Administration Programme proposal, which would create a greater amount of competition between Arts students for jobs. Regarding non-placement issues, CHEW will discuss work reports, programme flexibility and other current priorities. Previous experiences justify the need for this enquiry. One Kin.

The student’s immediate supervisors at the company protested on his behalf, but to no avail. The student was fired and has since dropped out of co-op. Other students on work term have complained about magpie luncheons with co-ordinators. It is the responsibility of the co-ordinator to visit the student out on term to discuss his progress. But at least one co-ordinator has created dissension between competing students by betraying student confidentiality during such meetings. Students have objected to unprofessional attitudes and abuse of responsibility. As well, employers have been dissatisfied with some students who have not committed themselves to the work. CHEW wants to investigate this aspect of co-op. employers do not Conversely, always recognize their responsibility to the programme. For instance, one employer shirked the responsibility of writing a letter of reference, asking‘ the student to write it herself.

“In the beginning, there was nothing. Earth was not found, nor Heaven above, a Yawning-gap there was, and grass nowhere.” - Norse mythology There are two basic scientific theories of cosmology. These are the open and closed universe theories; the names are self-explanatory. One proposes an infinite universe while one considers the cosmos a closed system. The open universe theory consists of two parts: ,steady-state and evolutionary. To digress a moment, let’s clear up some of the basic ideas of modern astrophysics. Johann Christian Dop: in Prague, pier, a math professor _ discovered that the wave length of sound and light is compacted as an object moves toward one, and vice versa. This is demonstrated by a train whose whistle sounds ,higher pitched - (shorter wave length) as it approaches, and lower pitched as it moves away. In the spectra of stars and galaxies, there is a shift in the light patterns of known elements towards the red end of the spectrum. This is known as red shifting. It also shows that all the known galaxies are. receding from us. The percentage of shifting of spectral lines has al.so been shown to relate to the speed of recession. This is known as the Doppler effect. In the early 20th century, Edwin Hubble plotted the distance of a number of known distant galaxies against their recession speeds and found that there was a relationship. Though it has been ret-librated many times, the Hubble constant has proven quite useful (its present value is 15.3 kilometers per second per million light years - one light year is about 9.5 trillion kilometers or 5.6 trillion miles). The steady-state universe is simply ~ that all existing matter and energy has always existed and always will. Its cosmology is simple - there is no

stumbling block for the “Big Bang” theorists. He thought that hydrogen, which makes up over 95% of the known universe, is constantly being created in interstellar space, between other hydrogen atoms, and in the cores of stars. The theory of spontaneous creation of matter accounted for the expansion of the universe, as proved by red shifts, but it was disputed because of its basis as a mere balancing of physical equations. There is yet another evolution theory that brings us to the edge of modern of white and science - the concept black holes, and anti-matter. Although it seems like pure sciencefiction, black holes were originally theorized by Einstein’s 1905 theory of relativity. A balck hole is merely a part of space which has “collapsed” into itself. Imagine a stretched rubber sheet. Now drop a large ball bearing onto it and it will make a dent. With a heavy enough ball, the sheet will stretch for infinity; that’s a black hole. Once matter gets into a black hole, it can’t get out since the escape velocity of its mass is now greater than the speed of l-ight; which can’t be exceeded (as far as is presently known). But where does it actually go? Nobody’s sure. One theory is that it comes out of a white hole. Make sense? Well, it’s still

were concepts
not widely accepted but the idea is that matter is compacted into the singulayity of a black hole, then comes shooting but , the other end. Unfortunately, there are problems trying to prove this theory, because mass has difficulty surviving a fall into a black hole. Anti-matter is matter’ which has equal size and mass, but different charge. However, identical matter and anti-matter particles totally annihilate each other, releasing enormous amounts of energy. So far, anti-matter has not been found or made in the laboratory, in quantities larger than a hydrogen atom, so we don’t have much with which to work, The theory is that a separate universe composed of an equal amount of anti-matter exists, and that black and white holes are the gateways between the two universes. There is a constant exchange across the void, but it doesn’t explain why the universe seems to be expanding. The best theory which seems to fit most of the facts is the “Big Bang” theory. Most people have heard of it: long ago, the entire universe was one big ball that exploded outward. Not only is there concrete proof, but we know something about what happened in that beginning ’ time, long ago. By using the Doppler effect and Hubble’s constant (described earlier), the farthest known objects have been found to be as much as 13 billion light years away. It is therefore deduced that the proposed “Bang” occurred around 15 billion years ago. At a constant acceleration working backwards, we find that the primordial sphere of Ylem was on the order of a billion kilometres in diameter. Its temperature was over a trillioti degrees Celsius. Nothing existed except as tiny elementary particles known as quarks (and their complementary anti-quarks). Whether it existed in this state for an instant or a million years is unknown; however, it exploded with an unimaginable force. At that instant, only gravity and electromagnetic forces existed (there are two more which binds basic forces - strength,

Basically, it has to do with the idea that matter enters our universe (is created) at the same rate that it leaves (is destroyed), or faster. This raises two questions which may seem simple at first, but so far only science-fiction can touch them. “Where does it go?“, and “Where does it come from?” In the early 50’s, Sir F. Hoyle, of the Royal Astronomic,al Society in Great Britain, proposed a theory that until recently has proven to be the major

Within that second, the temperature dropped to a balmy ten billion degrees. It continued to cool until a temporary equilibrium was reached, after about 15 seconds. It was more than a billion years before the galaxies as we know them began to coal;esce. Only 15 years ago, two Bell Laboratory reasearchers found the key. Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson were going to use the 2O-foot horn reflector on Crawford Hill, N.J., to study radio wave .intensity ii; our galaxy. This is a difficult thing to study, since the random motion of particles in the horn itself could tend to obscure incoming signals. Therefore, a device called a “cold load” was used. This compares the output of the radio telescope with the output of a power source produced by liquid helium (at about 4 degrees K. or -269 degrees C.). The “cold load” cancels out the backgrourid “noise” produced, giving a clearer signal. While calibrating their equipment, they happened to be at the 7.35 centimetre wavelength, ,where nothing was previously measured except random noise. But to their surprise, they got a strong signal. Furthermore, after repeated experiments, they found it coming from all directions, during all seasons of the year. There was only one thing to check - the level of intensity. The “static” corresponded to a temperature in the vicinity of 3 degrees K. Another physicist, from Princeton, P. J. Peebles, had suggested that this would be the current level of activity left over from the Big Bang. Penzias and Wilson talked with Peebles and all reached the same conclusion. Here was scientific proof of a titanic explosion eons ago. It was the most important discovery in astrophysics since the Doppler effect. next week....The end of the Universe

Barren/Yerma
is The Stratford Festival’s glossy little brochure, distributed eariier this year to announce their 1979 season, advertises Garcia Lorca’s Yerma in a new translation. The picture shows a labyrinthine clay house with a mysterious biack-clad figure in the foreground. The little blurb talks about the “closed, often cruel worid of a rural Spanish community’, in which the play takes piace. Eut the actual production on the Third Stage is something very different. Called BARREN/Yerma, it is a collective work, an “improvisation inspired by” Lorca’s play. Before the play starts, a woman in a wine velvet jumpsuit !ounges around for about half an hour on her patio (the theatre-in-theround used effectively here), chainsmoking, watering plants, leafing with little interest through books and newspapers, obviously terminally bored. The setting is London, Ontario,.in the present. It’s a far cry from Lorca’s Spain. Jo (made entirely convincing by Diane d’Aquila) is a rich housewife married to a demography professor. She is intelligent and beautiful but purposeless, wanting to act but unable to, not knowing where to begin. Her friends exemplify a number of roles open to her: the total mother, the professional woman, the working-womenrelentless with-small-child, the housekeeper/sister/family woman, the adulteress, the working widow. Jo suffers from the “crazy you get from too much choice” Joni Mitchell has written about. No one understands why she is so unhappy. She herself doesn’t know what is happening to her. Because the entire cast participated in the writing, the finished play seems to go in all directions, following the preoccupations of

twelve different people. There is none of the unity of vision, the consistent dramatic world, that one playwright can create. The program offers grim quotes about witchcraft, the Virgin Mary, the earth and fertility, along with unemployment, divorce and birth rate statistics. Directly and indirectly, the play attempts to deal with all these issues and many more. It raises far more questions than it can even attempt to answer, rambling along like a series of conversations or sketches. Every so often, the lighting changes, the characters freeze on stage, and three women sweep onstage in their beige Danskins and run around quoting stereotyped phrases about women (“she asked for it”), role reversals (a man whose female boss physically assaulted him), contrasting images, facts, problems of modern women. At one point-they appear in black capes and quote-Macbeth. Ali their scenes are rich and too fast-moving to be fully appreciated. They generalize Jo’s plight, make it universal. After these scenes devoted almost exclusively to the problems of woman in Western society, it’s strange to hear Jo’s husband, David, going on and on about the high birthrate in the Third World and how the people are all happy there despite their poverty and misery because they belong, they have no choices, they are at home with themselves. There “every child is a wanted child,” he insists. You have to wonder what this has to do with Jo and the rest of the woman the play evokes. The scenes where David, the husband, rants on his favourite topic seem incoherent, unrelated. The flat ending of BARREN/Y-erma on this note is a disappointment.

Because the actors created their roles for themselves, growing into them, their performances are generally convincing. Only Rod Beattie as David is irritating, speaking much too loudly and looking around in a blustering, self-conscious manner. Music by Cedric Smith and Terry Jones is simple, sad and very beautiful, particularly the duet between Jo and Geoffrey, her old friend/lover. It flows naturally into the play’s action, without awkward transitions. There’s not much evidence of Lorca’s influence on the players, despite the claim that BARREN/Yerma is “inspired by certain of the relationships and ideas to be found in Lorca’s play.” The central obsession of the Spanish work was Yerma’s passionate desire to bear a child, in opposition to her husband’s refusal. In the Stratford play, Jo does not want a child, but her husband does. This change is enough to shift the whole perspective of the play and put an enormous distance between its core and that .of Lorca’s play. Besides, there is no barren woman in BARRENIYerma. About all the play takes from Lorca, besides a song based on his poem “La Casada Infiel” (the Unfaithful Wife) and lyrics from some other works, is the fact that there is much talk of children in it. BARREZV/Yerm> is interesting, though fragmented; it asks some uncomfortable questions, perhaps leading people to think about things they have taken for granted (i.e. the idea that Third World birthrates must be drastically reduced). But to link BARREN,~Yerma with Lorca, the poet par excellence of his country and time, is to distort and demean both plays. The title is a bit of false advertising, but the play itself is everything it promises to be. Lori Farnham
Ronald Turini, an internationally-famous pianist, dominated the K-W Symphony in the concerts he played as guest artist with them this weekend, but the orchestra, too, managed to hold its own for an enjoyable evening. Turini’s performance of Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini (twentyfour variations of a tune originated by Paganini and already elaborated by Liszt, Schumann and Brahms) was, without a the highlight of the evening. doubt, Although his playing was a bit shaky at first, he soon exhibited the talent which made him world-famous. The notes rose from his piano with sharp clarity. In his solos in particular, Turini’s mastery was evident: the range and feeling in his music was most impressive. Turini, a highly gifted pianist and former student of Vladimir Horowitz, is a wellwith an excellent rounded musician international reputation.-After a US debut in New York’s Carnegie Hall in 1961, he has played as soloist with London’s Royal the BBC Symphony and Philharmonic, Paris’ famed lamoureux Orchestras. He has also performed with such major orchestras as the Chicago, San Antonio, National, Atlanta, Toronto, Winnipeg and Montreal to name just a few. As a Symphonies, founder member of Quartet Canada, Turini has toured Japan, Korea and Hawaii. The KW Symphony Orchestra was quite adequate playing behind Turini, although they appeared to be slightly cowed by his reputation. They performed well on the two places in which he did not figure, though: “Miramichi Ballad” by Kelsey Jones and “Serenade No. 1 in D Major, Opus 11” by
Johannes Brahms. The “Miramichi Ballad ,” a three movement piece -which began the evening, showed the wide range of the Orchestra. The first movement, “The Jones Boys,,’ based on a popular Newcastle song of 1890, was evocative of the outdoors, played, as it was, in low tones. The flutes were particularly effec?ive. The second movement, “Peter Ernberly”, was a sad tune based on the story of a young Prince Edward Island iad who died in an accident in the Miramichi woods. The use of strings and French horns gave the- song a lament quality. “The Lumberman’s Alphabet,” the final movement, employed the full orchestra in a boisterous version of a child’s verse. The Brahms work, one of his first after.his appointment as a young musician to the court of the Prince of Detmold, contained six movements. Memorable were the first and fifth, which gave a prominence to the French horn, a vastly under-rated and’ generally ignored instrument of which Brahms was apparently fond. The horn section of the Orchestra played these movements rather well, with nary a sour note. The entire orchestra performed well on this opus, which occurred during the second half of the evening. Dark passages were properly heavy while lighter, airier passages were quite pleasant. Turini, an internationally famous figure, may have dominated the evening, but the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony Orchestra was, not surprisingly, quite good. The audience, mostly made up of older people, was very enthusiastic. h-a Nayman

Concert Personally, I still can’t believe it. It’s just so hard to comprehend, I mean how in the name of mismanagement did Kathryn Moses ever end up on the same bill with Michael Quatro? It was as though some calculating, devilish mind had purposely arranged the mismatch in order to watch the audience convulse into spasms of auditory confusion. The “rock” segment .of the audience kept nodding off during the jazz session (though a wine-skin kept a few heads up), while the rag-time jivers pushed their fingers so far into their ears, during Qu’atro’s madness, that their eyes began to roll. After one of Quatro’s numerous flashbombs (which came totally expectedly) the old guy next to me, obviously a Moses fan, just sat there with his mouth wide-open, his eyes bugged out, and his hands pawing frantically in the air before him, mumbling incoherently. There was a mysterious hush throughout the theatre upon Kathryn Moses’ appearance, which I believe thoroughly titillated her, until she looked out into theaudience and.saw more empty seats than at Exhibition Stadium during the World Series. Kathryn Moses composes jazz music,and she performs it, as she did Wednesday night in the Theatre of the Arts, with all the vivacity and vocal syncopation of Ella Fitzgerald; she is a rhythmical wonder and comes across as a lady very capable of capturing an audience, not only with her artistic genius but with her good looks and gregarious personality. Her * band members played as a single unit, synchronizing perfectly, each, at times, offering some part of himself through distinctive solo performances. All in all, Kathryn Moses kept the jazz lovers slapping their knees and bobbing their heads, and even allowed this hard-core rock

freak the opportunity to slap his thighs and swivel in his seat once in a while. Then it happened. A few minutes after Moses had disappeared and the stage had been reprepared, the lights went out and 6 bodies lurked into the foreground (one a iittle shorter than the rest and dressed a little more extravasantlv). Soon anelectronic hum filled the air waves, and then, without further warning,‘Michael Quatro and co. appeared on Stage. Qud&o’s show comes across like the remnants, the remainder, of a once larger, somewhat grandiose, visual rock spectacle. The dry ice just did not look like fog rolling over a graveyard, and the flashbombs were far too “explosive” for the Arts building. When Quatro sticks to his classical-rock numbers, he fares reasonably well as a competent musician, but when he ventures away from the keyboards he seems to lose his appeal: he is just another run-of-the-mill rock vocalist. A few of the songs he performed Wednesdaynightarousedcheers from the audience, but always from thesame guy. His version of “Court of the Crimson King” was probably the best song of the evening, though the knowledge that it was somebody else’s somehow ruined the overall potency of the number. I find it very difficult to fully understand Quatro; one mor-&nt he appears as a fantastic classical pianist trying to express himself through a rock medium,and the next moment he comes across like a pretentious whiz-kid wearing a shirt that says, “Hi, I’m a rock star, flatter me”. The double concert was, by far, the most absurd “pairing” of artists I’ve ever seen, yet they say variety is the spice of life. Tell that to the old guy sitting beside me. M. Drew

Meat loaf cameo in Santa Barbara The ad blurb for Americathon, now playing at the Capitol Theatre, calls it “the comedy with no respect.‘.’ They weren’t kidding. Americathon takes place nineteen years from now, but it’s a rather biting satire of America today. For instance, take today’s gas shortage. In 1998, nobody driues cars, they live in cars. The freeways are clogged with joggers, skateboarders, and cyclists going to (and horn) work. The suit is a track suit with lapels, along with shirt and tie. The Jews have joined forces to become the “United Hebrab Republic.” San Diego has been sold to Mexico, and the White House is now a condo in Santa Barbara. On top of all that, America is going broke. They need four hundred billion dollars by September 30, and it’s already near the end of August. So President Chip Roosevelt (well-played by John Ritter) and his cabinet come up with an idea: put on a thirty-day telethon! Harvey Korman plays the emcee of the telethon, and he doei it well. Acts in the ,telethon include Meat Loaf demolishing a car, a mother-son boxing match, a Vietnamese punk rocker, a few dozen ventriloquists, a cameo by Elvis Costello, and Meat Loaf (again) donating and auctioning off a pint of blood. During these 30 days the President is kidnapped, the emcee is shot at, and a multibillionaire threatens _‘“>-: to foreclose on the United States. The film is even enjoyable in places. It has a good soundtrack, with songs by The Beach Boys, Eddie Money, and Elvis Costello. The movie is a good one to see if you want some entertainment but aren’t too picky about quality. Glenn

Unlike hundreds of other people ar the pub, I was never caughf up in the music, forgetting about life and dancing madly in a trance for hours.

Hatchet:
Hatchet - Flirtin’ With Disaster Hatchet Molly was a resident of 17th century Salem.- She would execute her lovers with the same tool made famous by Lizzie Borden . and George Washington. You might assume that a musical group that would adopt such a person as their namesake was not your usual bunch of guys. You would be quite right. Selfdescribed as “six street-tough, extremely macho southern boys”, Molly Hatchet puts to rest the image of laid-back southern \ bands. “Paying their dues” in and around Jacksonville, Florida, a city made famous as the site of the first Allman Brothers Band in 1969, the members of Molly Hatchet played with many who were destined for stardom. Bands such as .38 Special, Grinderswitch and Lynyrd Skynyrd got their start here. Comparisons with Lynyrd Skynyrd are inevitable; in fact, some people like to refer Molly

These guys are that good. Their first album, simply titled Molly Hatchef, was a good mixture of southernstyle ballads and rock. Their new release, Flirtin’ With Disaster, drops the ballads and concentrates on full-speed-ahead good-time rock and roll. The sound comes at the listener from all sides. It has its centre in the dynamite rhythm section of Banner Thomas (bass) and B ruce Crump (drums). Add to these three (yes, count ‘em three) lead guitarists (Dave Hlubek, Steve Holland, Duane Roland) and a growler in the fine tradition of Ronnie Van Zant by the name of Danny Joe Brown (you can’t get any more southern than that) and you come up with a combination that just cannot lose. Like any good southern band, Molly

This brings me directly to their latest musical ’ offering, with which I am only moderately impressed, to say the least. But let’s get down to basics, and that is precisely the musical direction these boys neglected to pursue on Dream Police. .
Don’t believe me? Slap on either side of their first disc, turn the volume way up and you’ll get the message loud and clear. Now,
carefully unpackage (so as not to let any of the inane sound meanderings slip out onto your jeans) your new copy of Dream Police and turn it loose under the same conditions. What’s that you hear? Leapin’ Les Pauls is that an orchestra, on a Cheap Trick album? Yep! Over half of the cuts on this album, have, at some point in their duration, either full or partial background orchestration. Why is this such a cardinal sin, you ask? Well, I’ve only known of one band to ever tour with an orchestra (ELP), and it broke them. So now you tell me. What’s Cheap Trick going to do when they want to perform live .versions of “Dream Police” and “Way of the World”? They’re going to flick a switch, smile through their teeth, and let the tapes roll and that’s a lot of bullshit. If a band cannot evoke the desired emotional response to a song through their own instrumental prowess, without employing a cascade of violins and a flurry of oboes, well, something is missing in their overall make.

All of the tracks on this album are uptempo rockers, cut from the same vein as previous Cheap Trick compositions, save one crooning delicacy, “Voices”, which, unfortunately, sounds like the by-product of a musical union of the Archies and Paul Anka. “Gonna Raise Hell” (seems to be a popular subject for song titles nowadays) displays some potent bass drum undercurrents, courtesy of Bun E. Carlos, which carry the lilting cadence aloft through various rhythm changes, while Robin Zander strains and growls over the lyrics with the raunching authority of Joe Cocker or vintage Alice Cooper. This song is an anthem-rocker depending heavily on a series of slaughter-house bass guitar riffs and driving bass drum hooks, and just when the song really begins to cook -whamin comes the orchestra again, slowly transforming it into a melting-pot of hogwash. The opening riffs of “Need Your Love” sound mysteriously similar to those of “Paranoid”

roc~k’n’roll
Hatchet plays songs about subjects close to the heart of any “good 01’ -boy”: drinking and having a good time. Titles like “Whiskey Man”, “Good Rockin”‘, “Let The Good Times Roll” (not to be confused with any number of other songs of the same name) and the title track are all indicative of this band’s hard work, hard play philosophy. The structure of the songs is quite basic. Solid drums and bass, a rhythm guitar track that’s busier than the beer store before a long weekend, and some of the finest pickin’ this side of Dickie Betts. But this raises a question. If it’s so basic, how come so few bands can pull it off? I don’t know, but I hope these guys don’t ever forget how it’s done. I found it ironic that the best cut on the album is called “Boogie No More”. I hope that this is not a hint as to the direction in which this band wants to move. I want Molly Hatchet to be around for a long time, so we can all boogie lots more. Peter Scheffel
Eects basics Since their debut album in 1977, Rick Neilson and Co. have laid down some . distinctly stylistic,* good quality rock’n’roll numbers of which they can be reasonably proud. Though not to be confused with any of the p,russic heavy-metalists still lurking around, Cheap Trick can be comfortably filed away under the explicit title; reasonably successful, middle-of-the-road, sometimes heavy, frequently harmonious pop-rockers. So why is it, now that these boys have become undeniably rich and famous, that in their egotistical hearts there swells forth the irresistible. urge to tamper with that certain something which,propelled them into a state of middling rock’n’roll eminence?

quickly reverts into a Cheap Trick original and there the similarity ends. For you Tom Petersson fans, the cut, “I Know What I Want“, should prove your piece of cake, as this is Tom’s first attempt at lead vocals (and -let’s hopehis last). His voice proves a distinct antithesis to Zander’s in that his vocal range spans at least 3 notes. At one point in the title cut, “Dream Police”, you could almost swear that the band is trying to create the scene of a musical battle between Chopin and Chuck Berry. My pick for the song which best exemplifies the basic pretentions of a downto-earth rock band is the track, “The House Is Rockin’.” This song has it all, and it flows like a rushing torrent through an open sluice gate, foaming, and frothing, eroding the inner banks of your consciousness until you’re left strained and drained. If you ’ haven’t already purchased the group’s first album, go ahead and indulge, ‘cause Dream Police is destined to end up in the vast realms of the budget rack. M. Drew Cook

The first Early Bird Tournament of the season was contested last weekend at York University. In a total of three matches, the Warriors compiled a record of 2 wins and 1 loss. On Saturday the team doubled the score on the host

yeomen, 10-5, obliterated RMC 7-1, and finally yielded to the experienced Queens 16-6. “We were tired when we met Queens in our last game. I wish that we had met them earlier in the day,” coach Wagner observed after the tourney. “Mike O’Brenial, Steve Dion and Dave Turner played well for us. O’Brenial had six goals and Dion had 4,‘Turner scored his first goal as a varsity player.” The Warriors’ major competition will come from the “power” of the league, McMaster. Mat “has lost some of their best players from last year but they will still have a very solid team,” Wagner commented. McMaster won all three of its matches on the weekend, and is expected to retain first place in the Western Division once again this year. U of T and Western complete the

The Athena field hockey team lost two of their four matches in an exhibition tournament played at McMaster this weekend. The Athenas played to a 2-2 draw defeated Western 4-2 with Queens, before losing to Toronto (the defending national champions) 4-0, and McGill 20. “We played the four teams who are in the opposite pool to the one in which we will compete. I was disappointed in the way in which we ended the tournament,” said Athena Coach Judy McCrae. “In our fourth game, we just lost our concentration. That’s the game in a tournament that can be -the most important one. It’s often the game that you have to win to do well. Our

inexperience showed up in that game. The girls realize it and we’ll be working hard on just that-working hard in every moment of our workouts and in our games.” In a game by game analysis, Coach McCrae offered the following comments: “They have a new coach and we didn’t know what style of play to expect from them. We opened the scoring only to fall behind 1-2. We came back to tie the game and that was nice to see. Our scorers were Lois Scott, on a penalty shot, and Lisa Bauer. Athenas

“We had a big part of the play in the early going of the first half. However, at that time we made some defensive errors and Toronto scored three qufck~ goals. “Toronto plays a different style.

That’s one of the few times that we’ll see it this season, We had explained the defensive adjustments but with our little letdown, Tofonto was quick to take advantage of it.” “We made some half-time adjustments and held them until the final minute of play.

These two tournaments guarantee the Warriors at least five matches. “All these games will help get us ready for the OUAA play,” Wagner said.

We’ll be working hard during the month of October as we get ready for the championship.” The Athenas will be playing at home cm the next 2 Wednesdays. Next week, October 10, al 4:3O, Waterloo will host York at Columbia Field. The following week, at the same time and place, McMaster will be visiting. In between, the Athenas will be playing in Toronto against the U. of T. The field hockey season has, by the standards of other intercollegiate sports, an odd structure. the tournaments and single games being played now are valuable for the experience received, and will help to determine seedings in the upcoming championship tournaments. Those tournaments, in Toronto the weekend of October 20,21, and Guelph, October 27,28 are in fact both the regular season and playoffs combined. the first tournament will determine the teams to play in Guelph, while that tournament will decide which team will represent Ontario in the Nationals.

Football Warriors Hurt Themselves Against Guelph The Warrior football team lost their third game in four starts, a 17-4 decision to Guelph. “Our lack of discipline hurt us against Guelph,” said Wally Delahey, the Head Coach of the University of. Waterloo Football Warriors. “We made mistakes at
crucial times and that really hurt us. We ran a kickoff back for a touchdown only to have it wiped out by a clipping penalty. “We had them stopped on a drive only to allow them to maintain possession by another of our penalties. They eventually scored on that drive and that made it awfully hard for us to come back. “Our defense played very well throughout the entire game. Our offense played well between the twentyfive yard lines. Once wegot, inside their twenty-five, we did not play well. That killed us. “It was our own errors that hurt us. We’ll just have to concentrate on eliminating those mistakes.”

The Warriors trounced Brock Badgers 27-4 in St. Catherines on Saturday . The score could have been higher but the referee kept the game under tight control. Phil White led the scoring with 13 points. Three fine rookies, Fraser Jennings, Woody Soloman, and Mark Hoffman scored the rest of the points. The Warriors travel to Kingston to play RMC on the weekend. The following week York is in town. The Warriors are out to avenge their loss of last year. The first team kicks off at two on Columbia Fields.
We Cut Corners When cutting the pieces to make a pai of pants, straight lines are easier than curves. They also use less fabric. Some larger firms cut pants that way. With tens of millions of pairs a year, those savings add up. But they don’t add,up to Howick. Our pants fit better because of all the slow; gentle curves in our patterns. Howick’s not a clothing giant, so you won’t find our pants on every corner. But then,you won’t find those corners on our pants.

Sports Intraplay Tennis The past weekened saw the conclusion of the men’s singles tennis tournament. A level competition began playaon Saturday, Sept. 22 with 27 players competing for the top position. The championship match saw Yasuo Yamagachi of Kin playing off against Tony MO of Chemical Engineering. Yamagachi had a fairly easy first set, winning it 61. Tony MO came back fighting in the second set but could not hold on to the lead, finally losing 4-6. The men’s ‘B’ level competition saw 13 competitors competing for the .top honours. The weekends of the 22-23 and 29-30 saw fairly evenly matched competitors. Alex Chan of Science was finally crowned the ‘B’ level champion. Chan lost his third match to place him in the lower bracket of the tournament. He fought his way back to defeat D. Finlay who also came up the lower side df the tournament.
Slow Pitch If you were anywhere on c:~n~pus this past weekend, you might have heard a lot of screaming and yelling. No! No one was being killed. We were not being invaded. It was just the overly enthusiastic participants of this year’s Village II co-ed slow pitch tournament. This year’s tournament saw double the number of entries over last year. From the 34 teams that began the tournament Friday afternoon, twelve remained on Sunday to battle for the championship honours. The championship game saw two evenly matched teams carry out some excellently executed plays. The Idiots jumped off to an early 3-2 lead over Math after the first inning. The second inning saw both teams add 4 runs each. In the third inning, the strong half of the Math team (the women) went to work
adding 4 runs to the Idiots 2.The fourth inning saw both teams bring 2 runs across the plate. Going into the last inning, the Math team had a one run lead, which was short-lived as the women from Idiots contributed 3 of their five runs in the fifth inning. Not to be out-done, the Math team women responded with three of their six runs to bring the championship home to the Math team. Well done ladies. Just remember the seven aside rugby tournament on Sat., October 20, and the Cross run for women on Friday, Octdber 19.
Ball Hockey This past week saw the start of the men’s competitive ball hock\ey league. After one week of play, it looks like a two team race for first place in the ‘B’ level, between Dirigibles and W.D.A.A.A. The remainder of the teams seem fairly equally matched. In the ‘A’ level, there also seems to be two teams who -will be fighting for first place, Politzaniz and
Muffriders. The remainler of the teams will be fighting it out for third and fourth places. Games are played every Tuesday and Wednesday at Seagram Stadium gym.
Soccer After two weeks of play, it looks like the defending ‘A’ champions, St. Jerome’s College, will be de-throned of their title by a strong Caribbean Stars Team. St. Jerome’s will also be challenged by strong teams in Simbas and Montezuma’s Revenge. These 3 teams will be battling it out for second, third and fourth place. But the remaining teams can not be counted out just yet. Eg>t Quad Alumni, and The Gang Green also have very powerful squads. The sleeper in this year’s A division are the Dirty Feet. If they ever get their act together they could be a contender for the title. In the B league, it seems to be a two team race for the title. In division one we have Conrad Grebel, defending B champions, as strong as last year and in

Females from all areas of the Twin cities converged on the PAC last Tuesda;. It was opening night for-the Women’s IM competitive volleyball. As one eyed the particiiants, one could feel the tension in the air. Everyone was so anxiously awaiting their opening matches. The highlight of the evening was the ‘A’ league matches. The first match saw the Notre Dame team trying to defend their reputation. The second match saw St. Paul’s execute numerous defensive formations. In game one, Notre Dame, otherwise known as Fenn’s playpen, matched off with the undermined squad, Token X.J.V. The Token X.J.V. squad jumped off to an early 5-0 lead. Playpen rebounded to narrow the margin 5-1. The XJV’s then went to work with the unstoppable Nancy McCallum serving 5 straight pbints, making it 10-l. After some superb defensive moves by Fenn’s playpen, they regained
