Editorial
CTV’s W5 program recently aired a show about the number of foreign students studying at universities in Canada. The show said that. foreign students are forcing thousands of Canadian students out of post-secondary education particularly in the fields of engineering and medicine. -The show claimed that there were 100,000 foreign students in Canada. Figures released in the “Citizenship of students and faculty incanadian universities” report prepared by the Council of Ontario Universities for the Association of Colleges of Canada (AUCC) say that 4.7% of all students in Canada are foreign. The show also claimed that one Barbara Allendidn’f get into pharmacy at Il U of T because the class contained 1&30%foreignstudents who crowded her out. In fact Allen didn’t have high enough marks to get into pharmacy. Another fact: there are no visa students in pharmacy at U of T. The program implied that there are many foreign students enrolledin medicine at U of T there are two. In 1976 there were only 18,304 visa students in Canada.‘Evidently everyone who is an immigrant attending school, o,r who “1ooks”foreign must be included in W5’s incredible 100,000 figure. Yet W5 will not retract these erroneous statements and others made during the show.

The program also claimed that the majority of foreign students studying in Canada-are the children of the elite butif that is true&s the direct result of seven provinces having imposed differential fees. Who but the elite could afford to come to Canada to study? Those who critidize Canada’s foreign aid programs for directing money into Canadian subsidiaries overseas usually say weshould be helping to educate people in those countries so that they may define their own destinies. Whether or not a foreign student decides to apply to remain in Canada, we benefit from that student’s education. Graduate students leave us the benefit of their research. If they return to their homelands, they benefit their own countries through increased expertise. The AUCC representatives inaccuracies”.

President Burt Matthews stated that the day marked a “turning point in their lives.” They are, he claimed, graduating into a world of opportunity in which they have an unrestricted choice of directions. It is to this end. that university education is directed and as such it is of the utmost importance and m&t receive the support of both the public and private sectors. Before conferring the fvarious degrees upon the graduates, the Chancellor was called upon to confer the degree, Doctor of Environmental Studies, Honoris &u&a, upon the honour: able Mr. Justice\Thomas R. Berger of the supreme court of British Columbia. This was given in “recognition of his distinquished carrer in the legal profession, his major contributions toward the protection of human rights and the man-
agement of our environment.” Following this, Justice Berger proceeded to address the audience, expouding on his involvement in, and contribution to, the preservation and protection of the environment. The main subject of his address was his participation in the MacKenzie Pipeline Inquiry in which Arctic Gas, a consortium of oil and gas companies, proposed to build a gas pipeline from the Arctic to Central Alberta. The Inquiry, Berger stated, was established to “consider the social, economic and environmental impact of the construction of (such) a pipeline.” Over a period of eighteen months, Berger travelled throughout the Mackenzie Delta, observing the northern environment and experiencing first-hand the lifestyles of the northern people. In addition to this, he held public hearings in the area and across southern Canada. As a result, Berger was
convinced that the proposed route of the pipeline was not feasible from an environmental point of view. Yet he had to consider the other aspect of the Inquiry -that vast resources of gas and oil were to be hadin the North. Berger sought to reconcile the two differences. From the Inquiry, he found that another route other than the one proposed could be built to the south west, along the Alaska. Highway distrubing little, if any, of the environment. He suggested that this route be the one to take”as well as suggesting the creation of a wilderness. park and the establishment of a whale sanctuary in the Mackenzie Bay ,and bird sanctuaries in the Mackenzie Delta and Mackenzie Valley. These suggestions were, he stated, essestial to the preservation of the diminshing wildlife in the North. As a result of Berger’s proposals, the Government decided to reject the orig-

The Student Advisory Council to the Department of Coordination met last - week to discuss problems ‘and new developments in the co-operative system. ,This Council consists of twelve students . appointed by the various student societies, the members of which are to be the formal liaison between thestudents and the Department. The Arts Society, however, has shown no interest in appointing a member to this Council to date. Consequently, two arts co-op students have (thankfully) becomerespon, sible members of the Council and regularly attend meetings. Last week the Council met and discussed the new a,J,gorithm adopted by the _Department of Coordination and Placement. The new algorithm has, according to\ tests, improved the ranking system regarding job selection. Tests reveal that with the old ranking system, 50% of students were getting their first choice and 55% of employers, their’s But the new method, I where,by the student and employer may rank any number of jobs first, second, etc., allows 75% of students their first choice and 68% of employers the same.

The new system has only #been in / effect for a short time and so qualitative improvement has not yet ‘been discerned. Bruce McCallum and Jim Wilson, Assosciate Directors of Co-op, assured the Council of flexibility. If it is found that the new system does not considerably improve upon the old ranking system, the new method won’t be used. Time will tell.

opens a drawer and pulls out a file at random. “Acton!” he mutters to himself,“adding: “This may not be as easy as we were lead to believe.” After ten minutes of discussion, the two decide to check each file together, on the off chance that one might see some important fact which would escape the other. The filing cabinets grew more and more oppressive in the dim silence. “Now,” Alphonse says, opening the first file, “Jeffrey Aarons, Height... weight... build... complexion... typical. Hmmm... last read book, favourite colour...what in hell is all this useless stuff?” “According to what is written down here, he’s Jewish,” Gaston offers, “Do you think...” “Average amount of sleep per night...toilet training,” Alphonse, continues, following his own train of thought, “Who cares if he doesn’t like ancient Greek architecture?” ZHe belongs to the New Democratic Party,” Gaston states, trying to be helpful. Alphonse had, being admittedly the smarter of the two, discovered a problem with their assignme”nt. “Don’t you see,” he attempts to explain, “That we could be here for the next week sorting through this (ex. pletive deleted)!” Depending on the intelligence of the men in question, they could argue for hours on the best method of finding what they were looking for, which is silly. The answer to their dilemma is relatively simple: take down the Social Insurance Number of the student (which is now a part of the forms which he or she must fill out upon entering university) and use government channels to get the information from that. Those who do not fill out their SIN (for it isn’t yet mandatory) must, of course, be investigated through their files, but there aren’t many. And they are getting fewer and fewer all the time. I am personally in favour of making things easier for the government on the grounds that the more civil servants there are, the higher taxes have to be in order to pay their salaries. However, when it comes -to such freedom of information as described above, I have to wonder whether making things easier is really a good idea.

It’s a SIN In a recent edition of the Globe and Mail, there was an article claiming that the system of filing students’ records was “chaotic” and that this state of affairs is the “chief protection students and their parents have from the misuse of students’ records.” These were the conclusions made ‘by Edward Humphreys, professor at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, who had conducted a nationwide study on the subject. The concept of my rights as a , student being protected by what is basically bureaucratic bungling and red tape is rather ironic considering the vehemence with which I am opposed-to government bureaucracy. I just can’t see the present Canadian government purposefully searching students’ records for indications of subversive activists (as the Americans, especially under Richard Nixon, have been known .to do). Still, one wonders... Very early one Saturday morning, two men could break into the administration building of Every University. These two men, who would deny having been briefed at RCMP Headquarters as to the lay-out of the buildings at E.U., nonetheless would go directly to the massive filing cabinets which held the secondary school graduate files, by-passing the computers, which held information which had already been tapped,and put on file. “Remember,” the taller member of the pair, whom we shall refer to as Alphonse, would state, “What we’re looking for . is anything suspicious, anything that smacks of subversion..‘: “Right,” the other man, Gaston, would reply. “Now,” Alphonse would say, illuminating the end of the rowwith a flashlight, “I’ll start at this end, you start at the other.” The two men move to their respective ends of the room, open drawer.s and start rifling through papers. Almost immediately, Gaston looks up at Alphonse and asks for his assistance. “Yes,” Alphonse distractedly says. “Whose file do you have?” Gaston, in his peculiarly nasal voice, inquires. “Somebody named Aarons,” Alphonse answers, becoming a little irritated, “Why? What’s the problem?” “The file I have,” Gaston replies from across the room, “Is for a guy named Ackroyd.” Alphonse digests this information for a couple of seconds, then goes to the middle of the row of cabinets,

S Students Found to be Disihsioned
and Cynical
Though students today lack the clarity of cause and visibility of protest that marked their predecessors of ten years ago, they have deeply disillusioned and cynical views about many of its contemporary values, institutions and leaders. Among ,840 students who participated in a random sampling of university option last March, a lot of suspicion of big business and oil producing corporations seemed prevalent, the financial Post reported in an article last week. Management consultant and awardr winning public affairs analyst J. Richard Finlay conducted the survey. He is the chairman of Uni-Marc, International Incorporated, the Tor-onto-based firm specializing in organizational strategy, market research and international public affairs, that carried out the survey. Some of the facts which he found were quite revealing: - a full 95% of students revealed that they have become “more concerned” about the energy crisis over the past . I two years; - a staggering 89% believe “the energy crisis is largely the creation of the major oil companies,” and’ a full 87% welcome nationalization of those firms; - only 11% give favourable rating to the general conduct and performance of the business community in Canada, while 92% <believe that “on the whole, corporations put profits ahead of the health and safety of their own employees and customers”; - 93% say “major corporations need more government control, not less”, an astounding 83% support the break-up of major oil companies, 64% say the same thing aboutthe major banks and 69% believe that Bell Canada should be broken up into smaller units. While big business was a favourite target of the students (major corporations receive a mere 8% support for working well, while nearly eight out of ten students think they need fundasrn-all business is mental reform), given fair support (69% of the students believe small business to be “very in tune” or“‘somewhat in tune” with their own personal interests and concerns). Eight out of ten students believe that business should be entitled to make a profit (although 91% held the view that the, profit motive was caubing more harm that good. This bodes well, again, for small business, for an impressive 79% welcome more support for it. 89% come, right out and agree that “small business is better for the consumer than big business’!. . The students also showed a marked dislike of present politics and social standards. More than three out of four gtudents believe that the free enterprise system and political parties are in need of major alterations. Only 23% say the government in Ottawa is working well, while 19% feel the same about the government in Ontario. In terms of needing “fundamental reform”, they are almost tied, with 47% giving the rating to the federal government and 46% for the Ontario government. Students also distinguished between their assessments of the House of Commons and those of the political Parties: barely one third feel that the House of Commons needs “fundamental reform” while almost three students out of four feel the same way about the parties. The study also showed that students are concerned with tougher conservation laws and the various media (television, news, newspapers, etc.) are received favourably.
Teaching Professor
Laurence
Award A. Cummings
is
one of seven professors from four Ontario universities who have been awarded the province’s, highest honor for excellence in university teaching - the OCUFA Teaching Award. Cummings, 53, is of the school of architecture and the department of English at the University of Waterloo. The winners were selected from 40 professors nominated thii year by colleagues, students, deans, administrators, alumni and faculty committees. The awards acknowledge outstanding teaching ability and are presented annually by the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations (OCUFA), which represents the interests of some 10,000 Ontario professors at the provincial level. One of Prof. Cummings’ many achievements at the University of Waterloo is his development of a cultural history program for the school of architecture during the early 1976’s that remains unique in Canadian architectural schools. The program investigates the history and criticism of European architecture, art, ’ thought, literature, technology and music. During the- 1960’s Pro& Cummings established the English department at St. Jerome’s College and translated, produced and directed a series of fulldress medieval plays. $rof. Cummings, whose background is in medieval and renaissance litera. ture, came to the University of Waterloo in 1961 after seven years of teaching in the United States. Winners are chosen for superior work in the classroom and/or laboratory and for course presentation, team teaching, audio-visual presentations, and other instructional areas.
WATMARS Bases
Library. Set Up
Data
On Tuesday, October 23, a demonstration of the Waterloo Machine Assisted Reference Service (WATMARS) was held for all interested faculty and students. Although WATMARS has been’in operation for two years, grads and faculty have been its major users, a situation which the people in the Arts Library want to change. 1 Thro,ugh the terminal in the library, information can be gained from Ottawa, California or Maryland on over one hundred different subjects (data bases). The user will receive a list of books, journal articles, research reports and previous dissertations related to his topic which, for the most part, go back to 1976 or before. It is estimated that there are over twenty million separate entries catalogued in the system. The. cost of having .a search varies depending upon how long the terminal is in use, (ie - how extensive the subject is) and how much the user is willing to spend.

On Sunday, October 21, the full Federation of Students of the University of Waterloo met for 3 l/2 hours. Si.xteen voting members were present, marking the first time that the Council has had a quorum since the meeting of April 8. Of major import was the admission of the Maranatha Ministries as a club on campus. The bestowal of club status to a group of interested students is usually handled by t.he board ~of Entertainment (BENT), but, due to certain misgivings about the proposed constitution of the club (Sarah Metcalfe, chairperson of the Board of External. Relations insisted that, according to that document, power resided within the Executive and not the general membership) and the strongly religious nature of its purpose, BENT felt that the rCouncil should make the decision. Ken Green, who spoke on behalf of Maranatha at the meeting, stated that, in accordance with the wishes of BENT, the constitution would ~ be changed, and that it was, in fact, only an interim measure until a general meeting could be held. The eventual vote overwhelmingly approved the acceptance of Maranatha as a club, although it was
Maranatha
suggested that BENTformalize the rules whereby groups could be given club status. The discussion of the recent Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) Conference in Ottawa also brought out many topics of interest to the students. An increase in the OFSrateper student from $1.50 to $3.00 was proposed and a referendum on the subject will be held and every university in Ontario within the next two years, related Mark McGuire, Federation President and one of Waterloo’s representatives at the conference. If the referendum in a university were to go against the increases (which would be reflected in higher Fed fees), that institution’s membership in OFS would lapse at the end of the two-year period. McGuire suggested that Waterloo’s referendum might best be he1.d’ at the same time as Federation Council elections. On November 11, a regional meeting of the OFS will take place at Waterloo as a precursor to cutbacks week, which takes place from the 12th to the 15th. There will be a mass rally at Queen’s Park on the final day. The purpose of the rally is to speak directly to Members of Provincial Parliament because recent
discussions with Bette Stephenson, Education Minister, had proven fruitless. An objection to the rally was raised by Larry Hann-ant, the Graduate Representative, who felt that such tactics had been tried before and proven ineffective. McGuire pointed out that discussion with elected officials is the only proper way to change things in a democracy and that no one could say for sure that rallies were ineffective. After lenghty debate on the matter, Council voted in favour of continuing Waterloo’s participation in these events. Hannant ‘objected, as well, to the minutes of the BENT meeting of September 24, claiming that they were biased against the Chevron Club. He insisted that it was an oversight on the part of the Secretary (Denise Donlon) that no mention was made of the claims put forth by the club in its defense. He also felt that the Maranatha Ministries had been discriminated against. Although BENT had accepted the minutes at a subsequent meeting, they have taken them back for revisions. The next meeting of the Council should be held on Sunday, November 4. Ira Nayman
Anti-nuclear On Thursday, October 18, an as yet unnamed of University of group Waterloo students and Kitchener-Waterloo residents who are against the proliferation of nuclear energy met to screen “No Act of God” and “A Matter of Choice”, two anti-nuclear films made by the National Film Borad of Canada, and informally discuss the possibilities of a club in the area. Jeff Page, organizer of the group and its spokesman until one can be elected at a genepal meeting, led the discussion, which centred around the aims of the group and some of its proposed activities. The main concern of the group is the~.‘total opposition of nuclear energy and the support of alternate sources. They also hope to be able to research topics not
e generally thoug lt to be related to nuclear energy (for example, feminism). Such research would be generally available to group members and the general public. ’ The activities which were suggested at the meeting included educational symposia, speakers, films, regular group meetings for purposes of discussion and visits to nuclear power plants, uranium mines and other areas of concern. As well as this, Jane Fonda is tentatively scheduled to speak here on March 25 (although this has yet to be confirmed), and group members may, depending on how far they are willing to go, participate in antinuclear demonstrations. The films dealt mainly w9th the negative aspects of atomic energy. Among the problems which were
alterations within the Campus Centre. For this reason it is desirable that the Board be adequately representative of the university population. Nominations for the positions will be accepted until 4pm Thursday, November 7. Applications are available at the Turnkey desk in the Campus Centre, or the office of the secretariat in Needles Hall.
WPIRG , Election Outcome Under one hundred students took advantage of their right to vote in last Tuesday’s Waterloo Public Interest Research Group (WPIRG) elections, The elections were held to fill five vacant seats on the board of directors. There were seven candidates. Margit van de Bor, Laura Halliday, Jeff Page, I<im Perotta and Tom
stressed were the extremely toxic nature of some of the materials involved (the first film stated -‘that l/1,000 gram of plutonium could kill the average human being in a matter of hours while as little as 1/1,000,000 could cause cancer), the ease with which human error could cause nuclear blow-ups or human evil could create bombs from plutomium, and the disposal of waste. Both films made it clear their claim that the decisions we make now are likely .to affect the planet for untold generations to come. The group, which, once organized, intends affiliating itself with fhe NonNuclear Network (NNN) and the Canadian Coalition for Nuclear Responsibility (CCNR). Ira Nayman

By-elections were held to fill three vacant seats (one 4-month and two 8month terms) on the CKMS Board of Directors. Only one of the 8-month seats was actually filled at the October 23 general meeting, however. Craig Porterfield will join Rhinehart 0Christiansen,‘ Perren Baker, Jamie Midwinter (elected on Oct. 1) and Tim German (elected in June) on the Board. Station manager David Assman said that the two remaining positions would have to be appointed by the Board at the next station meeting, scheduled for November 15 at 2 p.m. at the Bauer Warehouse.

.Friday,
on the U of W Caribbean Students Assoc. (C.S.A.)
This is just a short note to let all concerned know that there is a UW Caribbean Students Association (C.S.A.) and that it has recently been involved in a number of successful doings. For one, our turn out for meetings has been commendable so far. On November 20, the U of W CSA is hosting a Caribbean- cultural expo in conjunction with the U of W Turnkey Desk. A committee headed by Keith Gittens has already been formed and it would welctime any help, ideas or assistance. The general pub& is invited to participate and/or \ - perform. In the area of sports, our soccer team, the Caribbean Stars, has been doing itself proud, having won their matches against St. Jerome’s Montezuma’s Rev., Dirty Feet and the Simbas within the intramural circuit. It’s been a gfeat team this year, as was again shown in victories at Concordia in Montreal and against the visiting team from the University of Western Ontario. Mixed volleyball has been a fun affair up to now and there should now be the added impetus of having won the trophy on the Concordia weekend. For practise times get in touch with Janice Fuller, our Female Sports Co-ordin&or. The Concordia weekend, (Oct. 6th to 8th), was a smashing success. The U of W CSA
participated well in nearly every sports event along with visiting teams from ‘McMaster and McGill. We generally had a ball at the competently hosted dinner and dance, to say nothing of cruising around Montreal. Accommodations were smoothly arranged. I am sorry to say that I had to go as far as Montreal to realize that we have representatives of the non-British West Indian islands at the U of W. The CSA would sincerely welcome their attendance at its meetings; especially in’view of the coming Caribbean cultural expo. The next thing in the offing is the weekend at the U of Western Ontario, (Oct. 27th and 28th), and we hope this will be as successful as that at Concordia.

festations of beauty in early Greek art.’ Although these were regarded as “pagan”, as Durer noted, this pagan artistry-was used as a force for inspiration, were traces of Opollo and Venus are seen in Renaissance representations of ideal beauty Christ-and the Virgin Mary. Michaelangelo, one artist who, according to Combrich, had the desire to see beyond the veil of appearances, saw danger not only in copying reality too closely, but alsoin departing too much from nature. Gombrich illustrated this by works of several artists, whose works approached affectations, and caricatures. Part of the heritage of Platonic art is that the artist strives to see more than the ordinary person and this ability of the artist to go “beyond realism” is seen as a striving for perfection. In the seventeenth century there was a clash between two schools of. art, one of which was striving for the “academic ideal” and the other striving for the “truth of senses.” The rejection of realism by the modern movement while seen as a radical break with the “academic traditions of the past” suggests Gombrich, actually “points to the philosophy of Platonism which prompted artists to seek an ultimate reality behind the veil of appearances.” In the second lecture, “Twentieth Century Mystics,” Gombrich continued to trace the quest of the artist for a metaphysical justification of his work. Nineteenth century artists, with their belief in “progress” maintained that art should progress with the times, and that the artistic “academy’” with its frozen ideal of beauty was something to be rebelled against. The French
philosopher naturist Emile Zola voiced the prevailing feeling of this era, said Gombrich, when he commented that the idea of absolute beauty was no more than a “pleasant joke.” The _post-impressionists, however, rejected the preoccupation with pure naturalism and scientific observation, and those who followed, the cubists and surrealists, for example, strove to depict something higher than that which one can see in a photograph. Gombrich used quotations 1and slide illustrations of such masters as Gaugin, Cezanne, Picasso, Mondrian, and Hoffman to’ exemplify his thesis that the search for the essential idea behind the mere appearance of a work’s subject occupies a large portion of the twentieth century artistic philosophy. It was said of Cezanne, for example, that he did not paint a tree, but rather the “treeness” of a tree. In fact, concluded Gombrich, although the artist’s search for beauty in the academies oft he renaissance appears to be in contrast with the artists of the twentieth century, both are looking for the essence and the ideal behind the veil of appearances. Following Gombrich’s address the question of censor- , ship arose when one member ofI the audience noted that Plato maintained that art can harm and scar the soul. Gombrich agreed, but rejected the idea of censorship as a method of dealing with the possible harmful effects of art. Art, like drugs, or the violence show on television, he said, can indeed do damage to the soul, but like drugs and television, can bet used in a selective manner to educate and benefit humanity.

WIG stresses- discussmu“This is the* place for women to articulate, to say their minds,” co-ordinator Diane Mark Smith stated at - the Women’s Interest Group meeting, Wednesday, October 24. Because the group is so new she said, this meeting was held primarily for the purpose of finding out what topics the group wanted to cover in future sessions. Smith emphasized the need for women, to discuss what they considered relevant to them and to bring out into the open any problems common to their sex. Nothing was definitely set for discussionin further meetings. However, a film is going to be shown next week, entitled “Growing up Female”, centering on the roles played by, and expected of, women. Everyone also agreed to Smith’s idea of staging a two-day event in January, with the purpose .of attracting more people and getting them to realize the opportunities
for University women in their education, employment and career. Diana Clark, Chairperson of Education, and an active member in the group$ated that perhaps a list of various films pertaining to women could be written up, handed out and discussed to determine which would be appropriate to show. She also said that she was trying to get a number of speakers, relevant to the group’s aims, to talk, but nothing was definite. One thing Smith stressed in response to a question was that the group was not going to be a feminist radical group; she stated that “radicalism is pure emotionalism; they (the i radicals) don’t know the issues.” The emphasis was going to be on intelligent and rational thinking. Following this, Diana Clarke elaborated on the problem discussed at the meeting that was held two

CUP Briefs
Art is fix idealism The distinguished art historian Sir Ernst Gombrich delivered the tenth annual Hagey Lectures entitled “Beyond Realism.” The lectures, concerning the influence of idealistic philosophies on Western art, were well attended on both Monday andTuesday. His talks marked the end of the- “first decade” of The Hagey Lecture Series which was instituted in 1970 in Honour of Dr. J.G. Hagey, one of the founders and first. president of the University of Waterloo. Monday’s address, subtitled “The Cult of Beauty”, explored the influence which the philosophy of Plato had on art from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries, especially with respect to the representation of beauty. It was this Platonist philosaid Gombrich, sophy, which was reflected in the artist’s search for “an ultimate reality beyond the veil of appearances.” The philosophy of Plato he asserted, centers on the concept of the ideal as a proposed solution to the problem of “universals.” That is how we can speak of or as objects as “chalk” “apples” when each object is different, and when each undergoes the various changes of decay. According to Gombrich, Plato maintained that before the soul was imprisoned in the body, (before we were born), we could see the “ideal” essence of each object. Individual objects, he said, are reflections of this ideal. During the Italian Renthis philosophy, aissance was reflected in the highly religious art of the day, said Gombrich,and he introduced by way of example, many slides showing works of Renaissance masters. The Renaissance artists he said were captivated by the mani-

After this meeting, a memo was sent out stating that lights would be installed by the pathway. Now all we can do is wait, Clarke said. The end of the meeting was punctuated with endiscussion t h&as tic about the various points brought up, and everyone agreed to help out with the different aspects needed to organize next week’s lecture and- the advertisements for it. Smith showed pleasure in noting the number of new faces in the group and added that she hoped more people would be present for the next meeting. It is to be held at 4:30 Wednesday in room 113 at the Campus Centre. Karen

It states that if the present trend continues for a period of time, it will be on the brink of collapse,” said Stephenson. “Mr. Speaker, being on the brink-of collapse and the potential that indeed it could happen after a period of time I think are entirely two different things,” concluded Stephenson. Following this statement no further clarification of the effect the “System on the Brink” report will have .on government policy. was given. When asked in a telephone inter17 about Stephenson’s view Oct. -interpretation of the white paper, William Winegard, chairman of the OCUA, said, “What council is saying (in the report) is that the system is now on the brink...If the funding\for the next fo.ur years is anything like the model we present, then very serious damage will be done.” The OCUA is an impartial advisory agency for the provincial government. It is the first government body to be openly critical of the government’s funding policy in post-secondary education. The council report predicts, among other things, that if present funding trends continue, the elimination of 2,1000 to 2,600 faculty positions might be necessary by the 1983-84 academic year.

Ontario Lenislaturb Delays I$ecommindations on 1 Merger Bill TORONTO - The recent decision of the Ontario legislature’s justice committee to postp’one recommendations on Bill 19 has received wide support from several student organizations. The bill calls for the merger of the ministry of education and the ministry of colleges and universities, but the merger has been opposed by the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS), the Student’s Administrative Council (SAC) at the University of Toronto, and a number of other student unions across the province. U of T SAC president David Jones called the decision “a major victory by and’ for students.” He said that it is clear that because of concerns voiced by students and others, “the members of the justice committee now realize that the issues at stake are too important to allow the bill to be rushed through.” OFS information officer Allan Golombek said that. OFS fears the merger would allow the provincial , government to “play off” pre-postsecondary education and post-secondary education against each’other for the sake of fiscal restraint. The committee delayed issuing a recommendation in recognition of all the organizations which had presented briefs, explained David Cooke, New Democratic Party colleges and universities critic. “The hearings called to our attention several problems in the universities, such as those concerned with research and declining enrolment, which deserve attention before any decision can be made,” said Cooke. Nothing will be done with Bill 19, s the MPP stated, until Minister of Colleges and Universities and Education, Dr. Bette Stenhenson, makes a major speech outlining policy goals and objectives. Until such time further hearings will be held.

Second thoughts brass handles

on
To the Editor With the beginning of each fall term at the two universities .we have been the object of what we have assumed to be student pranks occuring usually on the traditional “pub nights” taking the form of removal and/or destruction of the potted evergreens which grace our front verandah. The replacement cost to date has been approximately $50. per tree per episode. This fall however a new note has been added. The bronze Heritage Landmark Plaque,recently affixed to our house in a special ceremony by the city of Waterloo has been forcibly“ removed. Shortly thereafter one of a pair of antique brass handles placed to assist the elderly was also taken including seven large brass screws. These handles are one of a kind and are not replaceable at any price. The humor of or the purpose of this type of operation is to say the least obscure. It would be greatly appreciated therefore if the individuals involved would have second thoughts, exercise their better judgement and.return these articles at the earliest opportunity. P. A.

Greek students’ s‘irpport Chevron club To the Editor The Greek Students Association believes that the decision of the Federation Board of Entertainment to reject’the Chevron Club’s application for recognition is an anti-democratic and unjust action. We are convinced that theChevronClub is run democratically by students and undoubtedly fulfills all the requirements set by the Federation for club recognition. The Chevron has been one of the defenders and promoter of student issues on our campus pertinent to differential tuition hikes for International Students, has been informative on education cutbacks affecting all students, as well as been objective and informative in covering all events of interest taking place on campus. Therefore, the Greek Students Asso‘ciation would like to see the BENT decision which denies the basic right of freedom of association reversed.

l60,O kilometers to.kpe run Nov.2 &Once again, it’s that time of year when‘we all seem to be running, Running, you .say? Of course; the 4th annual St. Jerome’s/Notre Dame 1600-kilometer Charity Run is fast approaching. This year it’s scheduled for the week of November 2-4. Organizer John Michaels and part of his six-member steering committee held a quiet news conference Monday to put the campaign into full swing. In past years, the Run has been extremely successful. It began three years ago, when the recipient was the local Children’s Aid Society. Amidst humble beginnings, a total of $3000 was collected. The runners are not sponsored individually, but the money comes from a concerted drive of students from the two colleges on the K-W are”a and UW. Most of the money comes from these individual donations into their yellow-covered money cans. The rest comes from the private sector and the many professionals in the region. The second annual event also donated its portion to Children’s Aid. Again, a large turn-out at the Run itself (around Ring Road (2.7km) from lpm Friday until the 1600km is completed at about 2pm Monday, day and night, rain or shine) ensured the attainment of their goal, and another $3000 was made. A true show of courage occurred at that Run, something not likely to be seen again in the near future. Three UW students, one, a paraplegic; another with cerebral palsy and a third, a triple open-heart-surgery case, decided to make the journey. Against incredible odds, the group made it aroundtheir lap in 25 minutes. To the tremenl dous roar of the crowd, the trio was escorted back to St. Jerome’s, To them, it was obviously worth everything. Last year, the colleges managed to better their goal of $3860 by another $500 for an arthroscope (usedin the study of joints) for St. Mary’s Hospital. A postal strike hurt their mail-out campaign, destroying their chance for an even bigger total. This year, the March of Dimes will be better off to the tune of two power wheelchairs ($5000), if (when) their goal is reached. The planning has been going on for over a month now and all is in readiness. Over 600 hours of work will be going into the event .. from all concerned.

the colleges earlier that month on the issue of wh&her or not to go ahead with the Run, the room exploded with a spontaneous two-minute-long standing ovation. Enthusiasm is obviously running -4 high. The letter campaign this year hasincluded so far over 600 industries, 250 doctors and dentists, ,178 churches and staff here at UW. This year’s telephone pledges should also be up from last year’s total of $800. One new wrinkle is the introduction of a 50-50 draw (25C each, 3 for $1). Michaels has figured that the top prize will be at least $800 and could go as high as $1250, not an amount to be sneezed&. Tickets are on sale now. Money cans are also being filled. Floors are competing against one another in the colleges to see who can get the highest average amount per can (they can hold up to about, $30). The public and high schools are also being asked to contribute what they can, even if its only the change in their pockets. Michaels has stated that if every elementary student in K-Ws separate school system donated lOC, they would make $14000. Opening ceremonies for the 1979 Run will be held at St. Jerome’s on November 2 at lpm. Mayor Carroll of Waterloo and Deputy-Mayor Pal-, mer of Kitchener will be in attendance, representing their respective cities, along with UW president B.C. Matthews, Federation president Mark McGuire, and other dignitaries. Fed vice-president Peter Wigglesworth (of St. Jerome’s) will run one of the first laps. Every runner will be on hand to run the last lap. When asked about the chances of success this year, Michaels replied, “I don’t have any doubts about making it. We’re going to hit it pretty easy - because St. Jerome’s always makes it.” He also stated that the money is kept in the area because they want to do something for K-W; “after all, we live here 8 months of the year.” If you’re interested in running, there are lists posted in both colleges and residences. All volunteer help is appreciated, but in Michael’s words, “money is preferable”. He can also be reached at 884-6565, or call Julie Borsellino at 8847485 in Notre Dame. Donations can also be made directly (make cheques payable to St. Jerome’s College UW c/o 1600 Kilometer Charity Run) and they’re even taxdeductible. Mark D’Gabriel

Blaise Pascal was a Christian. He was also a great mathematician and thinker. His combination of intelligence and faith is commemorated in the second annual Pascal Lecture Series. The purpose of these lectures is to bring speakers to the university who are distinguished by both their intellectual and Christian conrributions. This year the Pascal Lecturer will be Donald MacCrimmon MacKay, a professor of dommunications at Keele University, England, noted for his work in brain mechanism and physiology. The general topic, chosen by Profes-’ will be Science and sor MacKay, Meaning. MacKay will be giving two different but complimentary lectures on this subject; Hi& first lecture is entitled Does Science Destroy Meaning? Having discussed this issue, the second lecture will develop his thesis further under the title The Meaing of Science. The first lecture will be glen in the Humanities Theatre on Monday, October 29 at 8:Ob p.m. The second lecture will be held and the same place and time on Wednesday, October 31. Free tickets for these lectures will be available in the Modern Languages ticket office. In addition to the lectures, MacKaywill be fielding two seminars on Tuesday, October 30. At 2:30 p.m. in Hagey Hall 334 the topic of his seminar will be The Concept of the Inevtiable. At 8:OO in Optometry 309 he will discuss Selves, Brains, and Perception. MacKay will also be present at two special chapel services. On Monday, October 29, a service will be held at St. Jeromes On the following chapel at 4:30. Wednesday, the service will be at Conrad Grebel Chapel, also at MO. The reasons for the choice of MacKay as the Pascal Lecturer are quite evident. He has exlensively contributed to his specialty of brain research and to early. radar research. He has taught at King’s College in London and been a visiting professor and lecturer at the Unirversities of California, John Hopkins,

sophy, ethics and-religion. the study of science is an expression of Christian obedience to a creating and maintaining God. Of course, any scientist who is a Christian naturally must deal with the issue of the Creation vs. Evolution Theory. That old’ bugbear is with us even today and is as unresolved an issue in most minds as it was one hundred years ago when Darwin published his Origin of the Species. The encouragement of explanatory science had its roots in the Christian tradition but as the pursuit of scientific knowledge accelerated, science came to be seen by many as an alternative to the Biblical explanation of the universe,+
j
science can be a bused to create a deterministic, depersonalized and demoial universe. MacKay’s intellectual interests revolve around the systhesis of faith and the intellect. as a man of, science, he focuses on the complementary qualities of science and faith. His basic theme is that science and Christianity belong together from a theological stand-point. Together they point to a unified truth, not to two alternative truths which or rival each other. \ paralled Much of his writing is aimed at removing’ the myth that, science will destroy religious and moral life. Admitting that science can be, and often is, abused to create a “deterministic depersonalized and demoral” universe, MacKay emphasizes that science neither contradicts Christianity nor removes it _-, relevance. MacKay stresses the harmony of Christian doctrine and the practice of natural science. Faith nourishes scientific exploration. All people have the obligation to seek the truth empirically and not to try to fit ideas into preconceptions.,He sees Biblical faith as a liberation from pounding square pegs into round holes, and, with the wealth of knowledge available to us, feels that our opportunities for exercising this freetdom are greater than ever. MacKay holds a Christian perspective on science. The ultimate objective of science is to arrive at valid beliefs. As, part of this objective he believes it is ’ necessary to relate science to philo-

concentrates on the reasons and theology of creation rather than on specific techniques of creation. MacKay sees the theory of evolution as theologically neutral because it merely describes a theoretical law of nature. The theory of evolution is a codification of divine acts but not a contradiction of the Biblical belief that God i’s the author of the universe. MacKay makes an important distinct, ion between the theory of evolution and evolutionism. Evolution is a thepry; evolutionism is a “parasitic philosophy” imposed on the theory. It is evolutionism which makes biology an alternative to God and presumes to dismiss the concept of God as a mystical belief invoked because early thinkers lacked scientific explanations and simply didn’t know any better. It is this extrapolated philosophy that MacKay objects to. He sees the Biblical account of life as higher than the scientific account; the Biblical view embraces the scientific view. The Bible is not a scientific explanation of the universeand positively encourages and approves ar) open but self-critical growth of explanatory science.
predictable still exist. . particularly regarding the accounts of the cration .of the universe. Many Christians felt (then and now) that any scientific explanation of creation different from that recorded in Genesis undermined the’ authority and infallibility of the Bible. As MacKay (and others) describes it, two choices were normally followed. The first was to reject any scientific claims to truth which appeared to contradict the Biblical accounts. The second way out of the dilemma used by many Christian apologists in the nineteenth century was to fit God into scientific theories as the missing link. This approach pointed to the unexplainable as a proof of the existence of God. As a position it was slowly eaten away as more and more explanations were found, although it is still held by several. The answer to this issue given by MacKay and other Christians such as C.S. Lewis in his book Miracles is that the Bible does not give the scientific process of creation and was not meant to. the Bible does not descirbe the exact method of creation but recognizes its divine origins of the universe and
universe, <free will,
Another major area which concerns MacKay is the issue of the possibility of free will in a mechanistic universe: he is interested in the modern version of the centuries old problem of the relationship of predestination to free will. Although the Bible leaves no room for a self-sufficient model of the ‘universe, MacKay, for argument’s sake allows a completely mechanistic vision of the universe where all things are predictable by observers. Even were this vision true, MacKay stateq, free will still exists. “Free” does not mean “predictable”. The accuracy of the prediction of “A”‘s actions depends on “A”‘s belief that the aciton will occur, even if observer “B” knows for certain what the future holds. The argument hinges on the definition of brain states. If “A” does not know that an action will occur, for him, it is unpredictable. As soon as “B” tells “A” what will happen, “A”‘s brain state has been altered by new knowledge and “B”‘s prediction is no longer based on the correct information. It is a difficult concept and hard to accurately describe in a short paragraph. ‘MacKay answers the issue of “Do we have the freedom to choose?” with an emphatic “‘Yes!” Choose to go to the lectures.

Market economy zcoinpromises food system We are continuously told that Canada has one of- the world’s most efficient food systems - the breadbasket of the world. Not only has productivity increased in the past twenty years, but fewer people are actually needed to grow our food. We are also told repeatedly that the food economy is highly competitive. Hundreds *of companies. are out there vying for that precious share of our food dollar. Things, it appears, couldn’t be better. The Tomato Papers, a recent publication by OPIRG urges ,that a more critical appraisal of the food economy is long overdue. By following the tomato from the field to the dinner table, then transformation of the food system is graphically illustrated. Why the tomato? Apart from its high visibility at the kitchen table (Canadians consume in the average 60 to 70 lbs a year, 80% in alprocessed form), the tomato industry is the largest crop, in terms of monetary value, in the Ontario fruit and vegetable sector, ‘and it serves as a barometer to what is happening within the food system as a whole. Accordingly, The Tomato Papers is a series of studies examining the three aspects of the industry: production, processing, and retailing. Also, there is a special section on,, food quality. The conclusion considers possible routes available to people. in changing the food system. The
Producers
Tomato production has entered the . world of industrial agriculture. “Growing Tomatoes” analyzes some ‘of the indirect costs of present agricultural practices and challenges our conventional notion of efficiency.
Small farms are more productive ore a per acre basis, and more energy efficient. . The central dilemma facing growers is the cost-price squeeze.‘.In this, the grower is the fulcrum between his inputs and his outputs (his crop). A good starting point in understanding the rules producers have to live with, but have no control over, is the contract between himself and the major processors. (Almost all of Ontario’s producers have contracts with one of the four processing giants - Libby, Campbell, Heinz and De1 Monte.) Under the contracts, the bulk of the risks are assumed by the producer. If there is a crop failure, the processor looks elsewhere to meet the shortfall, but, under a government sponsored program, the processor obtains a refund on the duty paid for the imports. The producer’s inputs, on the other hand, are tied to the petro-chemical industry and have been escalating in costs for years. Under his contract, he is tied to these inputs (pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers and heavy machinery) and yet neither processors nor consumers will tolerate concomitant increases in the value of his crop. Nor does the , producer receive reductions on the duty of imported chemicals he is forced to use.
harvester). The cost-price squeeze has .sounded the death knell of the family farm. Despite the growing evidence that small farms are-more productive on a per acre basis, and more energy efficient, the market economy ‘deems it ‘inefficient’. -This is not to speak of the family farm as an integral part of the rural social fabric. But the market definition of efficiency often tends to reflect only the efficiency of profit, and then only the profit of the distributors, retailers an corporations. The social costs, in other words, are left out of the equation. According to a study by the International Joint Commission on Great Lakes pollution, (which The Tomato Papers quotes), Ontario agriculture alone contributes half of the Canadian phosphorous pollution of the Great Lakes. It may seem that the responsibility lies with the producer, but this is only ~ partly true. In a relationship which calls for higher and higher productivity, pressures to pay off mortgages, machinery and so on, there is little alternative but to go the chemical route (in some instances, producers who do not use chemicals are not protected by crop insurance programs). Apart from the environmental costs of heavy chemical usage, The Tomato Papers examine the health hazards which producers and farm workers face.,And, as the study points out, while millions of dollars are spent by the corporations in developing new pesticides, little research is done on the effects these chemicals, alone or in combination with other chemi.cals, have on human health. It is indicative of present government priorities that The Tomato Papers’must quote California studies since little has been done in Ontario. One of the primary reasons is that farmers and farmworkers are not covered by any occupational health legislation in Ontario. So it -is time that we question our notions of efficiency. ‘How efficient is agriculture when the family farm (more ’ more efficient per energy efficient, acre) becomes a rarity? How efficient is it to pollute the Great Lakes? The. Processors Once the tomato has been harvested, there. are two routes it can go: either as a ‘fresh vegetable, or to the processing plant where it eventually becomes tomorrow’s ketchup. It is at this stage, that The Tomato Papers continues its journey.
Farmers and farm-workers are not -covered by occupational health legislation. Farming today means growing bigger. With the cost of inputs soaring, the only way to make farming economically viable is to grow bigger. This, of course, complicates the costprice squeeze. The largest single cost among Ontario’s farmers is interest interest from loans to buy more land (the price of which may have risen 400600% in the past 15 years) or to buy heavier machinery to work the larger acreages ($120,000 for a new tomato
From a decentralized industry dominated by small processors, the processing sector has gone the route of other sectors, in the Canadian economy. Quoting a number of studies including one by the Science Council of C,anada, The Tomato Papers argues that foreign ownership. is a key -factor in understanding the structural problems which plague the Canadian economy today. In very graphic terms, De1 Monte’s moves
to’ rationalize its processing plants in Southern Ontario -are described. After De1 Monte acquired Canadian Canners in the mid-fifties, it then set about conquering the industry in Prince Edward County. Within ,a short period of time, 50% of the plants had been bought out. The next step was to rationalize; this meant closing down a number of the plants it had acquired. In one instance, De1 Monte actually had the equipment at one plant destroyed to ensure that no competitor could buy it. De1 Monte reduced the number of Canadian Canners plants from 41 to 15 in the space of 21 years. While the s’mall processo.rs are by no

The third paper The Retailers takes us to the next stage of the foo,d system, the supermarket. For most of usthis is the only contact we have with the food system. Concentration is the, rule of thumb. (Former Minister of Consumer & Corporate Affairs Warren Allmand admitted as much in January 1979). In Ontario alone, four chains control 80% of the retail market. Tomato processo?s, big and small deal through the chains and unless you happen to be one of the big processors, the odds are stacked against .you. Many of the chains through diversification and vertical integration are now stocking the shelves with their in-house brands. The rise of the generic (noname) brands is also squeezing the small processor. As the retail chains stock more of their own brands the market is narrowed down’to the large processors and the chains. ’ The major chains with their global purchasing power are increasingly turning to imports. In 1965, for example, imports of canned to,matoes amounted to 33 million pounds. In 1976 the-fig.ure’ had leapt to 96 million. In the same period imports as a percentage of domestic consumption rose from 21% to 54%. Not surprisingly domestic production has suffered, leading to fewer farmers, and a loss of jobs in the processing sector. The low wages prevalent in countries which supply the processed tomatoes should result in lower prices, but according to the Canadian Food Processors Association this is not the case. In fact, they lead to higher profit margins. Tomato
makes evident, it is no coincidence that, as the food economy has become , concentrated in the hands of agribusiness, industrial agriculture is now the rule rather than the exception. Centralization and adulterated food go hand in hand. ’ More research money is spent on tomatoes than on any other horticultur-, al crop in Ontario. The bulk of the research is geared to select those characteristics best suited to agribusiness. The result of this research is increased processing of our food. Accord.ing to a De1 Monte executive, the advantages of highly processed foods

This section of The Tomato Papers examines the impact of industrial agriculture on the - tomato. Along its journey, some curious things have happened. And what holds true for the tomato, is also true for our food system as a whole. As The Tomato Papers

Consumer needs take a back seat to private goals. A number of unpronouncable chemicals are used in tomato production and, according to The Tomato Papers, we should be concerned.
Little research is done to measure the effects of sever@ chemicals in concert. There are three problems involved in carrying out tests to determine the potential health hazards of chemicals. The first is that little research is done which measures the impact of several chemicals in concert, even though they are normally used in concert with other chemicals. The second problem is the present neglect of the long term effects of these chemicals. The third problem is the recent discovery that the major independent _ laboratory testing agricultural chemicals has found to be falsifying its results. For Canadians, this means there are at least 90 chemicals on the market today whose effects on humans is not known. Though we can be sure that they are more dangerous than we have been led to believe, we don’t know how much more dangerous. The final section of The Tomato Papers is a “wrapping up”. It makes it clear that if present trends continue unchallenged, ‘society can expect the exodus of family farms, the intensification of chemical agricultrue and the increased economic concentration to continue. The Tomato Papers is about the food system, a system which is geared to private profit, even at the cost of nutrition, ecological hazard and unknown social costs, the dollars and cents of which are not being measured. The Tomato Papers are available in magazine format (48 pages) from the WPIRG offices at a cost of $1.50 (for students) or $2.00 (for non-students). Stephen Allen

I Leap, director
Director Robin Phillips again indulges his fondness for transposing plays into a different historical period. King Lear a la Phillips is set in 19th~century England, complete with military uniforms and drawing rooms. You keep waiting for afternoon tea. In the first scene, set in a gloomy, dark sitting room full of velvet armchairs; which doesn’t look a bit like a palace, the Festival’s star attraction; their status symbol and chief drawing card, Peter Ustinov, appears. There was much advance publicity about Ustinov’s somewhat unconventional approach to the role of Lear, but the reality is ‘still a bit of a shock. This man is already weak, a bit feeble-minded, with the breathy whistle and trembling’voice some very old people have. He forgets what he was going to say, even the names of the people he is talking to, and has to be prompted. His anger is childish and almost ridiculous rather than tragic or even pathetic. This interpretation may be interesting in light of the contemporary difficulty of dealing with aged,,no longer useful parents, in their ‘children’s eyes, good only for the nursing home, but it falsifies the core of the play: Lear’s dignity, his kingliness, his pride. It’s easy to forget, even at the beginning, that Ustinov’s Lear is a king, but if his fall is to give him -the tragic stature his early blindness denied him, the audience must never forget that fact. It helps excuse his

From a dancer’s point of view, there’s something attractive about the idea of giving a demonstration instead of a performance: you get the stimulus of a live audience without exposing yourself to the possible harshness of critics. The Dancesmiths, an apprentice dance company founded by Lou Smith at .George Brown College in Toronto, appeared in the relaxed lecture/demonstration atmosphere of the World of Dance ,series sponsored by the dance department. The series is attempting to give a brief,overview of dance history, and each performance includes background material. To give some hint of early ballet forms, the young dancers performed a cascade, a Spanish Renaissance dance which already uses some of the basic feet and arm positions of ballet, and a chain dance. A Neopolitan tarantella, mad and frenzied, _ showed the wildness of early dance compared to a similar dance taken from the ballet Swan Lake. While still very lively, the classical ballet’s tarentella is much more . controlled and stvlized.

error in rewarding the declaration of love more than the proofs of it, surrounded like any monarchby flattery and unquestioning obedience. A man with such absolute power is easily humiliated and his high expectations of life and of the treatment he deserves accentuate his loss. Ustinov’s Lear does not become ,“old and foolish” throughout the course of the play, as Shakespeare’s does: he is that from the beginning. At first, it’s very hard to identify with Lear and sympathize with him. Ustinov’s performance is a bit blunt at the beginning, almost a caricature. Only later, with Lear’s rejection by his daughters Regan and Goner-i1 and his fall into madness, does the interpretation become delicate, nuanced, and finally, with his mourning for Cordelia and his own death, deeply touching. Ingrid Blekys as Cordelia, the one faithful, loving daughter who refuses to exaggerate her sentiments for her father to win a share in the kingdom he is dividing among his daughters, is simple and pathetic in the early scenes. Cordelia disappears from the action for a long time and when she comes back from France to save her father Bleky’s performance is shallow and insipid. She makes a wonderful corpse, though, for Lear to hold in his arms and weep over: this scene coaxed a lot of tears from the audience. The most successful scenes are those between Lear and his Fool; a sort of entertainer/adviser/friend played to perfection by William Hutt. The two men set each other off perfectly, sometimes Shunding like old lovers, sometimes like children, sometimes like charming old drunks. The relationshuip between them seems rich and complex. Here, the humour that is sometimes inappropriately introduced elsewhere in the play is completely fitting. Everyorre laughs at the Fool’s jokes even when they are too cryptic to be understood. Donna Goodhand as Goneril is suitably
One problem with modern performances of very well-known, popular plays is the dilemma the director faces: the choice ’ between a “classic,” conservative production that runs the risk of being boring, or a new interpretation of some sort, which, will very likely falsify the spirit of the original play. King Lear is one of those plays, and the Stratford Festival’s production falls more or less into the second category.

A “typical class” stated by the dancers looked suspiciously too graceful and coordinated for a practice session, but the idea of showing dancers working to create the illusion of effortlessness was a good one. “Morning Songs”, danced to a medley of Beatles’ songs was rather too long for impact. The gestures and music didn’t always fit together, but at times the movements had a beautiful spontaneity: as if the dancers were improvising as they went along. After the performance, the audience had a chance to talk with the dancers, who study jazz, ballet, modern and national dance, dance history, anatomy, acting and other courses, Most aspire to get into a small company performing both classical and modern works. They feel doubtful about large companies, not wanting to spend their whole careers as swans or village girls. But judging from this small sample, there are enough young and talented dancers to make the future of dance in this country a very promising one. Lori Farnham

cold and hateful. Marti Maraden, oddly cast as Regan, the other cruel daughter, seems quite gentle until the scene where she looks on while her husband -I tears out old Gloucester’s eyes. It’s difficult to believe in this sudden violence: it happens far too quickly. Good in smaller roles are Richard Monette, whose cold, rather deliberate acting makes him look bad in romantic roles, but suits the scheming bastard son Ed’mund perfectly, and Douglas Rain as
Gloucester, Edmund’s aged father, whose blindness regarding his children costs him, like Lear, terrible suffering. Tom Wood as Qswald, Goneril’s cowardly servant, and Frank Maraden, who takes a while to warm up to his role as Albany (as when he starred in Richard II) but confers a certain dignity to it at the end, deserve mention too. Some of the play’s visual effects are marvellous. During the first scene and a few others, the courtiers present freeze during the main characters’ speeches, .as if in a

painting, adding a visual richness the scenes would not otherwise have. The famous storm that batters Lear, lost in the open with no place to go, certainly conveyed the atmosphere of wild (weather, but sometimes all that smoke made the stage look like a steam bath. As well, it was very difficult to seize all the actors’ words with such noisy and spectacular,distractions. Madness fills the play, madness and curses. To the Festival’s credit, both elements are used to their full potential. Sometimes the irony is terrible, as when the lucidity of the Fool shows his master all sense does not necessarily belong to men wise in the world’s sense. By the-end of the play it’s hard to tell who is mad and who is sane. Where do you draw the line? Does that line really even exist? By reducing the granduer oft he early Lear, Phillips brings this play closer to modern times, the portrayal of the little low man in the theatre. But why? It adds noother,dimension to the play, except a little superficial comedy. In fact it takes away from the richness and the meaning of the text. When Ustinov’ performance succeeds, it is almost in spite of his interpretation of Lear, certainly not because of it. The other problem with the production is that people came to see the star, not the play, Ustinov, not Lear. Despite the lengthy explanation of the plot given in the program, there were bewildered whispers all around me, people saying “who is that person?“, “Whydidshedothat?‘‘-andsoon.Butthey clapped like mad for Ustinov, without understanding the role he was playing, some without even trying. That was th& real tragedy of the evening: - people could walk away from a performance of a great play whose richness had been offered to them, walk away without understanding. Lo& Farnham

The Kitchener Bach Choir began its twelfth season Saturday night with a resounding success. The presentation of “An Evening of Words and Music”fully satisfied a capacity crowd. The evening was one of innovation. Actor/ Nicholas Pennell from the Stratford Shakesperean festival was on hand to give brief introductions to the songs selected. More importantly, Pennell gave dramatic readings The Kitchener Bach Choir began its twelfth season Saturday night with a resounding success. The, presentation of of the texts of the pieces before t-hey were presented by the choir. This was an inspired ’ idea. Pennell,, looking very dapper and refined in his black tuxedo, gave an excellent performance. His readings were mellifluous ‘and wonderfully expressive. Except for his rendition of the second chapter of the Song of Solomon, most of Pennell’s readings were very short. Howl ever, within a few lines, Pennell was able to convey great feeling and sensitivity. Reading the words of each passage before the choir’s presentation truly enhanced the music’s dramatic effect. Because of this, the audience could concentrate more fully on the content of the songs rather than merely getting lost in the entrancing harmonies of the finely controlled choir. The choir’s programme consisted entirely of religious music from the Reformation onward, but also giying a nod to medieval Gregorian themes. In deference to Pennell’s Shakesperean background, the choir performed “Three Shakesperean Songs,” composed by R. Vaughan Williams. As an encore, Pennell also recited the “Fear no more the heat o’ the sun,” passage from Cymbeline. Parkminster Church was a very appropriate setting for such a program. The entire church is wood-panelled, very simple and warm-looking. The first offering was Welford Russell’s
“Who is at My Window, Who?” This lovely poem expresses an awakening yet faint awar,eness of God. The choir did a superb job, finding a subtle mixture of pathos in realizing that God is as yet unknown and of hope due’ to having an inkling of his presence. The- most impressive portion of the concert was the first of the Shakespearean songs, Ariel’s haunting “Full Fathom Five” from The Tempest. Pennell’s reading was excellent, helped considerably by his Festival stint as Ariel several years ago. The choir’s rendering was positively mystical. Sopranos and contraltos repeated a chorus of “ding dong bell” while the men rendered the text of the ’ poem. The interpolition of rapid and relexed tempos as well as the layering and counterpointing-of the text exactly caught the rolling waves of sea-change. Two contributions by Benjamin Britten were also of particular note. These were songs Six and Seven of Britten’s “‘Eight Medieval Poems,” a work written at the end of his life and published posthumously. These deserve special mention because it is thought that they had never before been performed in Canada. Although they were written and sung in Middle English, Pennell read a modernized verison. The first of these, “Carol,” was particularly interesting because of its layering and repetition of broken questions and phrases. Sung dramatically with great emotion and excitement, it was an exhilirating experience. The second Britten piece, “Ye that Passen By,” was an interpretation of Christ calling the passers-by from the cross. Read and sung with extraordinary sensitivity and tenderness, the piece summoned the most positive response from the audience. The Bach Choir is off to a smashing start this season. Under Howard Dyck’s camp- . etent and controlled mastery, the choir promises many splendid performances in the coming year. Celia Geiger

I was standing outside of the Capitol Theatre in Kitchener, watching the cars go by as I waited for a bus to take me back to the campus, when somebody came up to me and offeNd me a couple of joints. I muttered something about not wanting to buy them, thanks anyway, as the guy and his two friends walked on by; this episode, and the fact that the police-who were driving up and down King Street seemed to-take a bored interest in me (perhaps a vandal?) struck meas rather ironic, having just seen And Justice For All. Let me begin by saying that I have not been so moved by a film in a long time as I was by this one.. Although I cannot guarantee that you will have a similar reaction (for movies, as all works of art, are essentially personal I nonetheless highly reexperiences), commend that everybody see it, for one is certain to get something out of it. The film is about justice, or, as the hammer which shatters the title in the advertising suggests, the lack of justice. The major theme, that justice and law are not necessarily the same thing in modern society, is shown in a number of all too realistic court battles. Al Pacino, who plays Arthur Kirkland, a practicing lawyer of twelve years, has to explain to one of his clients why, although he has irrefutable proof of the man’s innocence, he cannot be released from prison (in which he has already spent two years). Apparently, the evidence arrived three days late, and the presiding
judge would not allow it. In one of the most memorable scenes of this film (and, in my opinion, any film of the last couple of .years), Pacino confronts the man, who has somehow managed to procure a gun and is holding two men hostage by it in the prison hospital. We see Kirklandattempt to convince his client to trust in the system, even though he isn’t certain any more of its worth, and give himself up before he is killed by the waiting prison guards. This scene is very important to the theme of the film, for it shows that the law, at its most perverse, can turn innocent people into criminals. More than that, though, it is an emotionally draining scene, for, although’we have seen the prison guards preparing to shoot him, the man’s death comes as a great jolt. Contributing to this effect was undoubtedly Pacino’s reaction (I felt that he was brilliant throughout). One minor scene which struck me as fantastic occurred just after this: the camera lingers on the pane of glass which had just been shattered by the fateful bullet through which we can see clearly the head and shoulders of the guard who fired the shot. His attitude seems to be a mixture of apology, embarrassment and boredom, as if he is saying: “Look, I know it’s shit, but it’s my t job.” One of the amazingaspectsof the filmis that it is so full of visual images and minor details; even the minor characters -have personalities.
for All\ -
Norman Jewison, who directed and co- ’ produced this film, must be responsible for this. Having distinguished himself with such movies as Jesus --Christ Shperstczr and Rollerball, he obviously decided to make one embracing such a wide topic as the entire judicial system. And Justicefor All aspires to do just that, for instance, although we are only introduced to two different judges, they both serve to illuminate another aspect of the system: is it right for one being to have the power to judge another,? The first judge, engagingly played by Jack Warden, eats lunch on the ledge outside his chambers (four floors above traffic), purposefully attempts to run just short of fuel while flyjng a helicopter and occasionally tries to kill himself. While none of this detracts from his character (he is a rather nice, if a somewhat odd old man) or the excellent advice he gives Kirkland, one still has to wonder if he is fit to pass judgement on the actions of others. So too, one Judge Fleming, portrayed by Jo,hn Forsythe. This man claims to have a hatred for the ‘scum’ who come before him (he is the man who would not accept Kirkland’s late evidence, ostansibly because

he was more interested in the letter of the law that the protection of the innocent). In one fascinating scene in an outdoor sauna, Fleming explains that severe punishments for minor offences would be highly appropriate and commendable. Yet, halfway through the film we find that he is being charged with rape, and assault; and threequarters of the way through, we find that he is guilty. Infact, he admits to it. The man whois supposed to uphold and represent the law is one of its most terrible offenders. Real characters and situations abound, but here I am, almost out of room without ever mentioning Hagey, a client of Kirkland’s who likes to dress-in women’s clothing and gets invoved in an armed robbery because - of it, or another of his clients who seems to have a new lawsuit every week. In fact, I’ve concentrated so much on the theme ,of the film that I haven’t mentioned the humourous qualities of it (which are legion). I can only suggest, again, that if you are looking for a memorable experience, you should see And Justice for All and get what you can out of it. There is a lot there. Ira Nayman

There are newspaper readers who choose not to read the comics page, and ‘they?should be pitied. There are others who read only the comics, and they should be admired, because they have homed in on the best feature any newspaper can offer. The comics section, usually occupying a page or so near the back of most dailies, is the sanest, most- innocent part of the newspaper. Schulz, Hart, Walker and Trudeau don’t want to inform, warn, advise or educate you; they just want to make you laugh. Nothing could be more pure. Cartoonists know that their audience, held for scarcely ten seconds, expects to find humour in the small space tliey have been given. They strive to satisfy this craving each day, and that is all that readers can expect from them. So what should we make of cartoonists who rescue their strips from oblivion and collect them into books? Can comic strips survive such weighty recognition?

offerings from his comic strip “Doonesbury,” and, curiously, these four panel snapshots, organized into about a dozen episodes, look better in book form than they do flanked by “Peanuts” and “B.C.” “Doonesbury,” in contrast to the lean drawings and skimpy dialogue of most strips, has always shown a fondness for detail and words. When Trudeau draws a scene, he puts in every leaf and brick. His characters never stand alone on a featureless landscape. Furthermore, they love to talk. Often the words in a panel take up more space then the drawing. Collecting the strips in book form makes Trudeau the cartoonist seem less a rebel, and renders his 1style perfectly natural. In fact, given the subject matter of Pension, Trudeau’s nuts and bolts style is the only reasonable one to use. In one episode Freddy Silverman, president of ABC, is consulted by NBC about one of their failing shows. In another, Henry Kissinger conducts a history seminar at Georgetown University. Even the&episodes that don’t use real people often use recognizable settings like the United Nations building and the White House. Trudeau does not restrict himself to a nevernever land where adults don’t exist, or ’ where dinosaurs roam the hills. His turf is the world as it exists today, so he draws it as he sees it, blemishes and all, every detail showing. 1
even trying If Pension has a message, it is that there is always something going on under our noses which we cannot readily see. Trudeau’s Trudeau’s dialogue always seems wholly authentic. It is unlikely that he knows first hand how a profesisonal football team is managed, how U.N. diplomats behave, how TV executives screen new shows, and how radio talk shows are run, but all of these episodes are in the book, executed with a confidence that makes you want to believe Trudeau is some sort of omniscient observer peeking behind the veils of public institutions, and reporting on his findings with deadly accuracy and humour. This ability to make the world funny, without altering its reality, is Trudeau’s great talent. The strip never relies on word play such as puns, or on obvious gag lines. When Duke signs Lava-Lava to the Redskins for two million dollars and senses opposition to the move, his comment is, “So we charge a little more for hot dogs this year, big deal.” When Mark asks his dad if anything new has happened during the spring, he says no, then remembers, “Oh; I had another heart attack:” These comments charm because they are funny without trying. After all, that’s how we find - humour in our day to day lives. Each page. of Pension contains one strip brimming with this kind of ironic humour, and most of them can be fully appreciated independently. An exception is the‘ one linking the first Redskins episode with the first U.N. episode. No other pair of episodeshas such a linking strip, and only seasoned “Doonesbury” fans will “get it” because only they will recognize Phred as the Viet Coing terrorist that B.D. met during his stint in Viet Nam. This strip should have been deleted from the book, as it spoils the balance of the other episodes by implying an underlying connection which is not apparent anywhere else. Another technical weakness occurs in the last strip of the episode where Mark’s dad, guests on his son% phone-in radio show. the previous four strips, which were of the same scene, had Mark sitting to the right of his father. In the last strip, Mark is standing at his left. The only reason for this is that Trudeau wanted Mark to get in the last word, and this was the only way to, work it. There is a resulting sense of incongruity which the newspaper version avoided, but which is unavoidable in the book version where the suporting strips are so fresh in the reader’s memory. I Such lapses, however, are rare, and this collection is ample proof that “Doonesbury” is deserving of the longevity that books can give it. Mario Milosevic

FatShadows Have you ever wished you hadthe bucks to rent a very large room, with chandeliers and a French Provincial *decor, to hire bartenders and waitresses and a real live rock band, just to throw a little bash for some of your closest chums? Well, then, you should have come out to see Fat Shadows last Thursday ‘cause the atmosphere was perfect: there was more open space here than there is between Joey Ramone’s ears. You could have crammed the number of people present all evening into the backseat of a ‘vette, but it was the quality of the fifteen people there that kept the party roaring and, in fact, kept the band from leaving early. Oh, sure, there were a few engineers present, I mean, after all, they sponsored the pub. As usual they all huddled into one corner of the room, swapped joke5 about naked trestles, and then they all pulled their baseball caps down so they rested on the upper rims of their glasses, and began uttering witty little remarks to the band, like, “Hey, hippie, cut your hair.” Fat Shadows? Well, I spent much of&he evening listening to the band tell me where they were headed, musically, and spent the rest of the time listening to their manager tell me where the band was headed, musically. If only the two views coincided, I might have believed either of them.

If you’re looking for Bram Tchaikovsky’s latest release,Strange Man, Changed Man, you won’t find it resting idly beside deleted copies of Rachmaninoff and Schubert, you might not even find it in the New Wave (shudder) section of your favourite vinyl vendor. Why? This album fits into no specific category. When you do finally locate it on the racks, you’ll probably look at the front cover and say, “Hmph”, then you’ll flip it over and discover a picture of three guys standing in front of a fire. One of the boys is holding a can of propane and smiling ineffably as though he’5 just torched the entire aristocratic rock society. Now you mutter, “Yep, punk rock.” But you’d be wrong, at least partially, beause this band can swoon and spoon and make your eyes weep, just as if you were listening to Mr. “Jingle” himself, Barry Manilow. Qn the other hand, these boys can boo& and rock wip all the authority of Chuck Barry, Lennon and McCartney and I the Byrds. I mean these boys don’t just copy guitar riffs, hell no, they reproduce entire rhythm tracks. There are more duplicated lidks on this album than minutes per side.

acro5s a desperate record exec. with a blank contract and a ball-point pen. Of the three sets the boys performed, the first two were comprised almost entirely of songs from such notables as the Stones, the Kinks,Cream, Aerosmith and Seger. These guys know how to handle their weapons well enough, lead and rythm guitars, bass, drums, keyboards, sax and flute, yet I became most interested in them, after I finished a series of fairly protracted rap sessions with the lead guitarist-, Murray (last names aren’t important in the rock ‘n roll business). Murray was pretty caught up with lyric5 and their value to a song. He felt. lyrics were the principal weave in the fabric of any good composition, yet what really impressed me was the fact that Murray looked to the ‘60’s songwriters as being the greatest lyricists. He felt also that this is the reason the ‘60’5 musicians will always be remembered, at least by those of us who appreciate the ‘60’s for the one-of-a-kind musical era it was. Fat Shadows, like so many other aspiring rock bands, feel they must employ the use of a keyboards player to fill in the gaps and to make sure that for every second the band’s playing, there is continual sound being emitted from the monitors. I don’t know what’s worse; a screamihg Les Paul being muffled by the pathetic garble of an untimely synthesizer solo, or a pounding bass line being completely distorted by a series of useless organ chords. But then again, Fat Shadows is only one of a multitude of

When listening to the song, “I’m the One that’s Leaving,” I would have bet my clear vinyl Yardbirds album that somebody had dubbed in the opening rhythm sequence from the Beatles’, “Eight Days a Week”. If Chuck Barry could hear the opening to, “Turn on the Light”, why he’d start jumping around on one leg ( his famous chicken hop) and begin to sing, “Johnny B. Goode”, even if the jail cell cramped his style a little. of the two cuts the record company chose for A.M. singles, one, “Girl of My Dreams,” smacks of vintage Roger McGuinn and the Byrds. I mean it’s one thing to show a little affectation for a past-beloved group, but why did they have to go so far as to lift the rhythm guitar riffs from “Mr. Tambourine Man?” Where does it .a11 stop? What ever happened to originality? With the exception of all but a few songs, these guy5 dwell in the realm5 of quasi-originality. Yet wait. There’5 still more. How many bands do you know of that would take a Monkee original (written by Neil Diamond) and try to raunch it up, Bram Tchaikovsky would, and that’s why you’ll find “I’m A Believer” on this album. It’s not worth listening-to. Now to top everything off, why not steal a song title, a title distinctly recognizable as being somebody else’s - “Sarah Smiles?” Someone told me the other day that New Wave/Punk Rock bands borrow and recycle old ‘60’s tunes in order to ignite a dying flame. Well, the flames may be dead, but theembers will burn forever as melodies running rampant in the back of our heads. The music that rocked Woodstock expressed the passion and the fury of a single generation, a period in which music dominated society. Now, punk rock is out to make its own mark in rock’n’roll antiquity, Well that’s fin&, but do it on your own two feet, eh guys?

What I likeFmost about the performance of classical or operatic singers is the response of the audience. At the end of the concert, red and pink and white roses and other flowers usually sail through the air to land at the performer’s feet in tribute to. great singing. Littered flowers appeal to my sense of romance. Although the songs were of love and romance, last Wednesday’s noon hour recital, featuring soprano Lynda Neufeld and mezzo-soprano Margaret Kuhl, with -Kenneth Hull on piano, was not applauded with flowers. In comparison with the audience for other concerts sponsored. by Conrad Grebel this year, this one was small and reserved, although this impression may have been augmented by the large unused capacity of the Theatre of the Arts. Had I brought flowers, I would not have thrown bouquets, but one or two single roses at least. The singing was not great but did merit a more enthusiastic response than it received.

voices blended and complemented each other well, althbugh Neufeld was stronger. Unfortunately, there seemed to be little personal rapport between the two women, resulting in a slightly stifled and tense musical delivery. ’ Pianist Kenneth Hull accompanied both singers ably and with enthusiasm. His playing, rarely obtrusive, was a definite asset. Margaret Kuhl had the good sense to translate the words of the duets and her solos for the audiences as everything was sung in Italian and German. Lynda Neufeld unfortunately neglected to do this for her solos. Kuhl’s aid was a help to the audience and their expectations but might have been taken one step further to give more information and background about the pieces. The next time I have the pleasure of hearing a recital by either or both of these promising singers, I will bring my flowers. Celia Geiger

ling modulation. Kuhl’s choices were very spirited and lively. Her voice, thinner and more artificial than Neufeld’s, was forced to strain a bit for the high trills and sudden dives to the low notes. Soprano Lynda Neufeld then sang four compositions by Mozart. She impressed me far more than Margaret Kuhl for several reasons. She had a richer, fuller voice and did not need the aid of a written score except in the opening madrigals. Her trills were stronger and she had, over all, a greater control over her tone and resonance. In contrast to Kuhl’s choices, Neufeld chose much slower and lyrical pieces and enjoyed them more. Her pieces did not test her voice much, avoiding the extremely high notes. There was a disappointing quality of sameness abut all of her selections. The final four duets by Brahms reunited the two singers. the songs varied from comedy to melancholy to grief to enthusiastic love. As in the first set of duets, the
The program was varied and entertaining, ‘opening with two duets penned by Monteverdi, the first genius of opera but in his early career almost exclusively a writer of madgigals. The entire program progressed chronologically from Monteverdi through solos by Scarlatti and Mozart, among others, and closed with four diverse duets by Brahms. Opening with the madrigals by Monteverdi, Neufeld and Kuhl blended their voices nicely and effectively, if slightly mechanically. The madrigals favoured Kuhl’s lower range most and showed off her voice to good advantage. Kuhl then held the stage alone to offer three Italian songs by Scarlatti, Pergolesi and Durante. Her best effort .was the Pergolesi, “Si tu m’ami, se sospiri.” This was the only piece in which she became emotionally lost in her singing; most often she was too much aware of being on display in front of the audience. In this song, her voice had the greatest fullness and control-

Warrior basketball fans are welcome to attend %he intersquad game scheduled at 5pm Friday (today) at the PAC. With his lineup more- or less established, coach Don McCrae is anxious to see how team members will react in a “mock-game situation”. “A successful team needs bona-fide starters”, says McCrae. “There must be definitive roles for seven or eight fieople. We have to find out who plays best together and in what situations.” In a candid assessment of his players, McCrae admits he has more questions than answers. Two answers are conveniently supplied by veterah forwards Seymour Hadwen and Doug Vance. However a dogfight is developing for starting guard positions among returnees Leon Passmore, Clay Ninham, and Tim Harrold, as well as John Freund who sat out last year, but returns with “more confidence”. Returning front-court players Steve Garrett and ‘Richard Kurtz will be pressured by a flock of promising newccmers: Brian Rae sat out last year but at 6’6”, “could give us a third big man on the floor”. Scott King, also 6’6”, has junior varsity experience and’ has been “a pleasant surprise”. Phil1 Jarrett, 6’3”, was a high school all star at Waterloo’s Bluevale Collegiate. Dave Burns, a 6’5” forward hails from Brockville and, like Jarrett, played on a regional team in last summer’s Ontario championships. Two players that probably won’t see much action are 6’7” Ian Macdonald of Waterloo who has played only two years of competitive bisketball (but has “tremendous enthusiasm”) and 6’3” John Hnatiw of Oshawa (“an exceptional athlete”). Of them McCrae says “great potential but very green”. Another question mark around this year’s Warrior operation is who will be the public address announcer at the PAC? If you are -interested in this position contact McCrae at extension 3088. The Warriors will be travelling to Thunder Bay in the first week in November and to Calgary around Christmas. Several places are ayailable on team flights at a reduced fare. Anyone interested in travelling west at that time is also asked to call 3088. James Allen
’
A big plus for the Warriors was the play of quarterback Bob Pronyk. After being injured in last week’s game against York he returned to complete 10 of 19 passes for 170 yards, including a 33 yard pass to Bill Boug for a touchdown.
The University of Waterloo football team surprised everyone last Friday night by upsetting the highly favoured University of Toronto Blues at Seagram Stadium by a 28-20 score. For the Warriors, it was their first ever win rover the Blues, and it proved a satisfying end to a frustrating season. The Warriors, receiving the opening kickoff, scored first, on their first series of plays. On the fifth play of the game Joe Alves took a hand off and romped 53 . yards for the major.

highlights
It was a warm but very windy day last Saturday as over 200 athletes representing 10 universities from all over the piovince met in Windsor to vie for team and individual honours in the Ontario Track and Field University Championships. Waterloo athletes came up with sparkling individual performances, and many achieved personal-best efforts, as the spirited squad came up with a respectable fourth place finish on the day. The University of Toronto was unbeatable this year, showing tremendous depth in all events to amass a total of 336 points. Fighting it out for the next three places were Queen’s (last year’s champion) with 222 points, a surprising McMaster crew with 205, and the University of Waterloo with 187 points. Nevertheless, Waterloo’s total, gained in the absence of Rob Town and Howie Saunders (who have both taken off the year to train for the Olympics) and Larry Atkitison (who is injured), proves that they are an up-and-coming power to be tieckoned with. The small but dedicated women’s crew was especially impresive. Faye Blackwood left the spectators in awe as she literally ran away from her competitors to win the 400 meter race in an OWIAAh record time of 55.1 seconds. Not to be outdone, Lisa Amsden did the same in the 800 meter event, running a personal best time of 2:13.5 to beat her nearest opponent by 5 seconds. Math student Leslie Estwick showed tremendous versatility, picking up 3 individual medals - a gold in the high jump (1.71 meters), s”llver in the long jump and bronze in the 100 meter hurdles. Also impressive was Sylvia Malgadey who captured a third in the
women’s long jump, and finished just ‘inches -behind Toronto’s Jill ROSS to place second in the 100 meter hurdles. Andrea Page, who came to Waterloo this year to do graduate work in health studies, made a real team contribution in finishing second in the 400 meter hurdles, fourth in the 200 and running in both relays. The girls’ heart really came through in the relay events. After a poor baton meterchange in the 4 x 100, which led to disqualification and nobbed the team of almost certain victory, the tired girls had only minutes to prepare for the grueling 4 x 400 meter event. On the Exciting final leg, 400 meter record holder F&ye Blackwood absolutely burned up a,50 meter lead held by the U of T runner, but couldn’t quite beat her to the tape. The girls (Amsden, Page, Malgadey, Blackwood) ended up with the silver, far ahead of third place McMaster. One of the’ highlights of the men’s track events were the performances of first year Arts student (and former Canadian junior record holder) Mike Forgrave. Mike narrowly missed the OUAA record as he won the 400 meter hurdles in 54.6 seconds, came back tin .hour later to win the 400 meter event in 49.2 seconds, and ended the day by contributing a fine finishing leg to the 4 x 400 meter relay. team. In the 100 meter dash, Waterloo’s Ed Neeland cruised to an easy 10.8 second victory after arch-rival Mark Evelyn of Toronto pulled ? muscle coming out of the blocks. First year student Nick Bolton ran six races during the day to come up with fourth place finishes in both the 100 and 200 meter sprints, while Scott Amos advanced through the heats to finish seventh overall in the 200.
track Gary Hutchinson proved that he was in fine shape for this Saturday’s Ontario cross country championships’, as he captured a silver in the 5000 and bronze in the 10,000 meter event. John Williams, a newcomer to competitive track, also did well in these events, finishing 7th and 8th respectively. In the 3000 nieter steeplechase, Bruce Harris ran a personal best to finish fourth overall. The middle distance competitors included Wilf Noordermeer, who picked up a sixth place finish in each of the 800 and 1500 meter events. Dave Zapporoli also finished 7th in the 1500, despite an ankle injury suffered while trying to. catch a bus! On the field, Norm Myrie seemed to be everywhere, capturing a third in triple jump, a seventh in the long jump, and eight in> the high jump. (He later contributed a blazing first leg to the 4 x 100 relay effort). All three pole vaulters performed well,- despite the laik of training facilities, as Jim Balesha finished fourth, Stan Adamsan fifth and Kevin Negus eighth. Mike Peacock had a personal b es t in the high jump to capture seventh place, while Pat Moran finished eighth in the discus. One of the last, and most exciting events of the day, was the 4 x 100 meter relay event in which Norm Myrie, Barry Sales, Nick Bolton and Ed Neeland looked as smooth as clockwork, taking home the gold in a near OUAA record time of 42.9 seconds. The victory was especially gratifying for Myrie and Sales, who will be graduating in April. In the 4 x 400 relay, first year athletes Mike Forgrave, Nick Bolton, Dave Wylie and Dave Strachan met up with tough competition, but still ran respectably to finish fourth overall. Wilf Noordermeer

Wateipolo Last weekend the Warriors travelled to the University of Western Ontario ’ for the second tournament of the season. In their first game against McMaster, they opened the scoring early in the first qurter , but powerhouse Mat came back and won easily 33-4. The second game, against a fast swimming U of T team, -started badly; the Warriors found themselves 1 down 6-l. Changing tactics, the Warriors came out shooting and by midway through the fourth quarter had pulled to an 8-8 tie. With a minute left in the game, Mike Oberemk scored the go-ahead goal only to see U of T come back and tie it with 15 seconds left.

Basketbd
The University of Watekloo will host a high school basketball tournament this weekend. Eight of the top teams from S-W ‘Ontario will compete in the tournament. The top attraction‘of the weekend should ,be, the presence of Bishop Ryan High School of Hamilton, perennial Ontario champions. Last year’s Bishop -Ryan team contributed one of its members to-National Junior team, and two more members played with the Provincial Junior team. Action begins at 10 a.m on Saturday and will continue on till sunday. The championship game will begin at 2 pm Sunday. .There is no admission charge for the tournament. Also on Sunday, the Athenas will square off against Lakehead in a women’s exhibition basketball game at lo:30 am. Meanwhile, in an exhibition game played last Wednesday, the Athenas lost a 75-61 decision to York. The Athenas were slow to get into their game but rebounded well in the second half to outscore their opponents.
The women’s cross country team heads for Western this Saturday for the OWIAA Cross Country Championships. The meet is the fourth and final one on a schedule that has seen Waterloo field full teams at outings at York, McMaster and Guelph. The team at Western will consist of Rina Klevering, Angie Hohlheimer, Lucy Van Esbroeck, Lana Marjama, Rhonda Bell, Jeanne Harris and Barb Shovvers. Under a recent rule change, a team consists of 7 runners, with 5 to score: in past years a team was defined as 5 runners, with 3 scoring. “We may well have more than 7 runners competing at Western, and that delights me,” coach Louise Adamson was quoted as saying. “The emphasis at Waterloo is on participation’ in the sport, and I expect that, by fielding a full team and running well, we can finish 5th on Saturday. Western, Queen’s and Guelph are all formidable; each team is simply loaded with provincial-level athletes.” Hockey Competition’ for indiviThe h&key Warriors bedual honours on the Watergan their season with two loo team will be keen, for matches last week.

Age and wisdom have prevailed again! At the annual Engineering Challenge Run through Waterloo Park, the Facul’ty “A” took up “the challenge” to defeat Engineering and everyone else. The team, composed of Colin Rogers, Rob Brown, Jay Thompson, Mike, Houston and Brian Farrance, -placed well ahead of the competition placing 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 8th and 12th respectively. Thier closes competitors were a bunch of youngsters from Village I North. The team placed second by placing runners 4th, Yth, Ilth, 17th and 18th. The team was composed of J. Sjonnesen, B. Torrance, N. Nighswandex, S. Spinney, and S. Madeski. Notre Dame cleaned up on the women’s run, due mainly to the fact that they were the only entrants. Come on! We expect to see more girls out next year to give Notke Dame some competition. Notre Dame,. keep up the good work! The best individual time was recorded by Ray Costello of Engineering. %
