Underfunding “driving profs from Ontario” OTTAWA (CUP) The Ontario government’s consistent underfunding of education is driving quality professors out of the province, according to the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations (OCUFA). Sarah Shorten, president of OCUFA and a professor at the University of Western Ontario, said salaries at Ontario universities have fallen drastically behind other groups. “This constitutes a serious threat to the human resources of the Ontario university system,” she said. “The teachers in our universities represent a large and vital public investment but if professors continue to suffer erosion of salaries exacerbated by reductions in research support and funds for professional expenses, we risk a major and alarming

loss of scientists and scholars to other parts of the country.” According to OCUFA, over the past eight years there has been a loss of 17 per cent in real terms in salaries. The cost of living has increased 95 per cent while professors’ salaries have only risen 65 per cent. Compare this, says Shorten, to an increase of 90 per of cent in the salaries community colleges teachers, 106 per cent in high school teachers’ salaries and 94 per cent for professional engineers. “This constitutes a damage to the quality of education,” she said. “Ontario ‘is 16th in the country for funding to universities.” Assistant professors in Ontario earn an average of $19,000 a year. A professor with about 16 years experience earns between b$33,~~~ and $40,000 a year. However, Shorten says the general public is convinced that professors have huge incomes. “I meet people who confidently believe that professors earn $45,000 a year to start,” she said. OCUFA has been lobbying the government concerning the underfunding and has stepped up these efforts during the provincial election campaign.

McGill sot on Nader’s “hit list” MONTREAL (CUP) The McGill Student Society has joined General Motors and IT&T on Ralph Nadar’s hit list. During an appearance at McGill February 28 Nader

Q accused the council of “straitjacketing” students by refusing to allow the McGill Public Interest Research Group (McPIRG) to seek a refundable fee through a referendum. “This is a problem that has plagued many universities in Canada,” said Nader. “You don’t have to worry about your trustees but about your own student representatives.” At a meeting February 18 council turned down a request by McPIRG to seek an autonomous fee of $2.50 per student per semester. Councillors argued that McPIRG, established only two months was ago, untried and an autonomouslevy was premature. “It’s a big risk for a group that’s only been around for awhile to get an $80,000 budget”, said student society president Todd Ducharme. “And they submitted a flawed constitution. If you’re going to give students a choice on something you have to insure it’s a workable choice,” he said. “Let’s be candid,” said Nader. “Any time there is a strong student government they see a PIRG effort as overshadowing them. There are student governments in the States with this same kind of omnipresent exclusivity.” Nader cited the lack- of a student initiated referendum clause in the student

society constitution as a flaw. “Any student government charter is deficient if it doesn’t provide for a decision to revert to the students,” he said. Nader called on the students to take other forms of action. “If the student society won’t let you do what you want, elect your own society. Otherwise you are going to be completely hamstrung by procedures that are selfcycling,” said Nader. Ducharme suggested that McPIRG be made a group within the student society until it established itself. “They should approach the society for funding and ioperate as a society group for /a year. They won’t get I$80,000 but they have to ‘realize that they can’t get that kind of money on a silver platter,” he said.

Journalists in El Salvador Visappearb (CUP) More than 188 journalists have been killed or have disappeared in Central and South America since 1973 in wars without rules, according to CBC journalist Brian McKenna, who recently returned from war-torn El Salvador. MONTREAL

In conjunction with Student Solidarity Day at McGill University February 24, McKenna presented an appalling picture of the day-to-day life of journalists in the tiny Central American nation. “There are no front lines and none of the old rules apply,” said McKenna. “White flags and ambulances are regularly shot at.” McKenna recalled with vivid detail his first day in San Salvador, the nation’s capital, racing from the airport to his hotel room to beat the ~:OO pm curfew and avoid being shot on sight by the National Guard. “You could see the smiling National Guards, with their M-16 rifles with the safety catches off, lining the streets and looking at their watches. People were running like mad to get home,” he said. “By nightfall, the shooting would start and in the morning you would see the bodies.” McKenna spent one day travelling around the city with a member of the Salvadorean Human Rights Commission whose job it was to look for vultures, find the victims of the night’s rampage and photograph them for identification purposes. The bodies were often mutilated with heads, li’mbs and genitals cut off. The women usually were found

to have been raped and then killed, he said.

Another fee hike strike for Waterloo? A group on campus, SOCIT (Students Opposed to Cutbacks and Increased Tuition), has decided to call another Fee Hike Strike. Last September, a Fee Hike Strike was held but failed to reduce tuition fees. In spite of this, SOCIT feels that such a strike can suceed this year, although a press release issued by the organization does not explain why the group believe this. SOCIT claims that education cutbacks have eroded the value of education, making the tuition increases all the more “galling”. It claims that the “tactics of lobbying, ’ petitions and postcards... have produced no worthwhile results since 1972 when cutbacks began.” SOCIT is basically composed of members of last year’s Committee to Support the Fee Hike Strike. While claiming that students can still attend classes while on strike, the release mentions, “Members of our committee have shown that this can be done, when we were on strike last year.”

Friday,

General meeting: chaos reigns Chaos and controversy were the main items in the agenda at last Monday’s Federation of Students’ General Meeting. Although the meeting appeared to have been planned well, it became begged down in precedural wrangles. The bulk of the agenda, by-laws 33 and 34, were passed quickly and with little debate. Although fromer Environmental Studies councillor, Maggie Thompson attempted to split the two motions into smaller motions dealing with each section of the respective by-laws (this would have created over 70 motions for the meeting to consider) the general assembly voted agaisnt such a move. According to outgoing Federation President Neil

-hypnotists

Freeman, the two by-laws are a “consolidation of existing by-laws” which will put previous, sometimes confusing by-laws into “one piece of paper, easily readable.” In other business, students can expect to pay an extra 75 cents per term to the Federation of Students as a result of a fee increase passed at the meeting. The revenues will go towards paying for a full-time researcher on the Boards of Education and External Relations. Former BEER co-chairpersons Peter Hoy and Debi Brock both spoke in favour of the increases. claimed that the HOY workload was too large for a full-time student to handle. He stated that although he felt that his board had accomplished

function

much in the past year, there was still a lot of work that it could not do. Some of those who spoke against the increase maintained that the money could be used for things other than a researcher. Others maintained that the increase was simple not justified at all. A motion rescinding an earlier Council decision provided the most controversy, however. At the Council meeting of January 10, 1981, council passed a motion withdrawing Federation advertising in Enginews until its “sexist and racist” content was removed.

The motion before the general meeting called for rescinding that motion. However, the motion’s seconder, Heather Good, claimed that she had not been consulted about seconding the motion and angrily withdrew her second. Both Thompson and Arts student Mary Gillia claimed that this invalidated the motion and prevented council from voting on it. 3 They that if seconder stituted “maker”,

Federation of Students’ constitution. He ruled that it did not because the general assembly overrules students’ council, was challenged, and was supported by the assembly. The motion was eventually passed with a large majority. Commenting later on the incident, incoming Federation President Wim Simmonis said that he thought that the procedural wranglings were used to impede the progress of democracy, something for which they were not intended.

Committee

formed-

Athletics “need help” The athletic facilities at UW are in extreme need of augmentation. In a recent interview President of UW, Dr Burt Matthews,’ stated that at present our athletic facilities represent approximately 50% of the normal standard of all Universities in Ontario. In fact, UW is onk of the most lacking institutions in this respect, As a first step to rectifying this situation, Dr Matthews said he has set up an advisory committee to determine the actual need for additional athletic facilities. The _committee, which includes three students as well as a liberal sprinkling of faculty members from ’ Statistics, Personnel, and

Look into my eyes... The audience watched his every movement; hung on to his every word. “Do you think that I am pacing back and forth because I’m nervous?” joked the hypnotis) Dr. Leonard Elkind. He was invited by the WLU Gerontology Committee to speak on hypnosis and aging this week. Although he did make some references to he talked largely aging, about the variety of ways in which he felt hypnosis could improve one’s life. Dr. Elkind referred to the diffrent functions of the right and left sides of the brain. The right side .is responsible for our autonomic nervous system, our intuitive sense and subconscious, he said, while the left side produces rational thought. Elkind believes that most of us have lost the capacity to be in dialogue with the right side of the brain and that this is why most of us are presently only using 10 t.0 15 per cent of our brain capacity. The purpose of hypnosis, then, according to Elkind, is to gain access to that right side of the brain, thereby enhancing mental and physical functioning. He explained by way of example, that if we were to walk around the room using only our left side of the brain - being totally conscious of, and thinking out our every movement realize how we would extremly clumsy we are without our right si’de. Elkind further suggested that hypnosis can be used to help prevent illnesses. The body and mind have a natural tendency to heal, Dr. Elkind believes. He has done work with people who have chronic illnesses, including cancer, 3nd says he has witnessed surprising results. Hyp-

result, could not be discussed or voted on. Since the agenda was fixed the motion could not be reintroduced under “new business”. Speaker Bernie Roehl ruled that another seconder could be found for the motion and that it needn’t die merely because Good had withdrawn her second. He was challenged and appealed to the general aassembly for a ruling. The assembly supported Roehl. However, no sooner was this decision reached when Roehl was forced to decide whether or not such a motion conformed to

explained-

nosis performed on people while they are undergoing operations, has proven to drastically decrease the mortality rate of the patients, Elkind claimed. Elkind stated that there is a concensus among researchers in the field people have the that 140 potential to live healthy, active years. It is well documented-, he said, that meditation and selfhypnosis have definite effects on the physiology of practicers. There exists a method of teaching SALT (Suggestive Alternative Learning Techniques) - which utilizes hypnosis as a means of attaining quick and long lasting retention powers. For example, Elkind maintains, if a person were to learn Spanish by this technique, the hypnotist would aid in transforming the person to a Spanish, setting. To attain a lucid dream state, music would be played and pictures would be shown to immerse the person into Spanish life. Only a fraction of the time taken to become fluent under normal conditions is needed when hypnosis is used. The function of the hypnotist, Dr. Elkind stressed, is not to control the minds of her or his subject. It’ is rather to “take them by the hand and lead thm to that special place in the mind”. Through reinforcement and embedded suggestion, the hypnotist strives to allow the subject to believe that everything is possible in the imagination. Dr. Elkind described being hypnotized as akin to being told a really nice bedtime story. Funny, but that’s just how I felt at the end of the talk. H. Geerts

example,

to be given new life Recently, the idea of rejuvenating downtown Waterloo has come up for discussion. In ttis case, rejuvenation means replacing convenience centres, such as hardware, dry-cleaning, and small grocery stores with higher levels of business. Such businesses might include clothing and department stores. Comparative shopping is the purpose of rejuveQation. For example, a shopper compares clothing styles but he does not compare nails in a hardware store. . &cording to Mr. Tom Slomke, Director of Planning for the Planning Department of Waterloo, downtown Waterloo needs quality establishments to attract potential buyers from the surrounding communities. Convenience stores will better serve this purpose by being located closer to the residential areas. For such reasons, says Slomke, downtown Waterloo will be made “better” and “stronger” w-ithout emphasizing “bigger”. Already, planters and new sidewalks have taken their place in the city, and an -alteration in the transit route is also proposed, to make

acccessibility to downtown Waterloo easier. Parking facilities and management are presently being considered as possible areas of change. If parking were to be similar to that of Kitchener’s Market Square, then current parking problems in downtown Waterloo might be lessened. Slomke maintained that the only changes which occur with the city council’s full control involve public services. City planning, it seems, like anything political, has a necessary procedure to follow. Slomke stated that first thk city agree upon the correct plans for the city. Research costs for the project totalled $82,000. This included finding the present and the future market demands as well as the success ratio for the proposed plans. The city also must check the by-laws to see if specific plans might be halted on their way to completion because of city rules and regulations. Alterations of the by-laws only occur if the proposed plans are in the best interest of the city. If the by-laws and the prdposed plans conflict, then alteration> become necessary. As the by-laws must be examined, so too must the

area in question. Slomke considered zoning and merchants to be the two major “challenges iti achieving change to downtown Waterloo. Only now is the city council facing the problem of getting major businesses to settle in Waterloo. Although council may appear to have sufficient power, it still lacks the power to approach businesses, inviting them to become a part of downtown Waterloo. A committee, a board, or a “vehicle”, as Slomke chooses to call it, has been proposed. The purpose of the “vehicle” would be to attract not only business but “high quality” business. Therefore, if Waterloo is going to change, this change must be brought about by an accumulation of small decisions. The rejuvenation of downtown Waterloo does not include the actual construction of buildings, but the betterment of services. As Slomke says, ,the city council can only provide leadership; the rest is up to private owners, or merchants, who wish to add to what Waterloo’s planning director calls the “cultural, social and retail centre” of the city. Debbie Elliott

would be high on the list of priorities” declared Matthews, who feels that we use enough ice-time to warrant one. At present we are forced to rent ice-time and often we receive unsatisfactory time-slots. under Another project consideration is the installment of lights over the playing fields. The advisory committee is to submit a report to the President by September, 1981. Matthews suggested as a guideline a total expenditure of not more than $3 million (1980 dollars) through 1986. The committee is also to a plan for the propose acquisition of funds, including student contributions, Wintario or other government sources, and non-government sources. This proposal would then conceivably become the basis for a student referendum on the question of a special fee assessment for this purpose. Another project currently under consideration is the formation of an Ad Hoc committee to recommend a policy on ethical behaviour, due to, Matthews states, “... the increasing concern being expressed here and in other universities about violations of ethical behaviour and our lack of formal policy and procedures in this area...” The aims of the committee are to develop a code of ethics to be a guide to the relationships between faculty, staff and students, and to propose existing or new mechanisms to be used in the investigation of allegations of unethical behaviour. The results of these considerations are to be submitted in a report to the President by December 1, 1981. Topics of concern include such issues as blackmail and sexual harassment. “1% not suggesting that there is more unethical behaviour now than there was before” Matthews explained, “there simply exists an- increased awareness of the problem.” When questioned on how he feels about the fact that he will not be in office when the results of the reports are known, Matthews said that it. has no bearing on his duties as President of the University. “I feel that it is important not to keep these issues waiting.” Todd Tremblay

Xnnecessary” The present Ontario Government policy of unrestraint is totally John necessary, says Sweeney, Liberal MPP and Education Critic in Stuart Smith’s Opposition Party. Sweeney spoke to a small gathering last Thursday evening at a talk sponsored by the Election Action Commit tee. The focus of the talk concerned itself with underwithin the unifunding although versity system, several other topics were discussed. Sweeney says that the system looks good, “but behind the scenes it’s falling apart”. Evidence of this decay is primarily illustrated in three areas, says Sweeney. First, a drastic increase in class size, which means a proportionate decrease in the worth of the learning experience. Second, lab equipment seems to be gradually growing obsolete to the point where its worth is questionable. Finally, university libraries cannot replace lost or damaged books and are purchasing fewer new books each year. All of this, Sweeney

claims, is because the universities have less real money to spend, because of government restraint, and are therefore forced to cut back. The student, facing rising tuition fees, is the most affected as his learning ‘1--r--11- -- - - I experience ~~ is oeing rnrearened. Sweeney pointed out the irony in the restraint policy by noting that the Davis government has committed itself to improving postsecondary education within the province, yet, at the same time, allows such deterioration to occur. In the legislature, Sweeney stated that he has , asked the Premier on several occasions as to what extent ,he will permit the downgrading of the education system. As of yet, he claims that he has received no satisfactory reply. Sweeney also mentioned that the Federal Goverriment is serimsly considering dropping its share of university funding, which totals 1.5 billion dollars. In Ontario, this would mean that the Provincial Government would receive 500 million dollars’ less towards post-secondary financing. Sweeney says that. there is

no conceivable method of replacing such a drastic reduction. The Federal money is part of the Estabished Program Financing (EPF) scheme, which is due to expire in March of next year. Postsecondary education is only ^ _ one aspect of this program as it also entails medicare and hospital funding. Apparently, the provinces have consistently reneged on their share of university financing and have assumed could use federal they money to offset their own decreases. Under the EPF agreement, the Federal Government pays 50% of university

costs, the province’s are supposed to pay 350/o, with the remaining 15% raised through university tuition fees. If the program is scrapped then the University of Waterloo would receive 30 million ..dollars less than .its .. . .. 100 million dollar annual budget. An important problem arising from this, Sweeney noted, is “rationalization” of the university system, as a reaction to a policy of restraint. Ration alization ” -’ * I. ” . is the “scaling down” ot the system by eliminating or amal; gamatmg .’ programs . continued

Survey asks: Who uses CC? Who uses the Campus Centre? A group of planning students will attempt to answer that question with the data they collect in a campuswide survey. Faced with continuous cutbacks, the Campus Centre Board may find the information collected in the survey useful in making future plans. The survey, which is headed by Dr. Eunice Baxter, a- professor of Urban and Regional Planning, will consist of both telephone and personal interviews of a random sample of UW students. Those conducting the survey will be students of Baxter’s course, Planning

Questions such as how often students use the Campus Centre, what particular facilities they use and what particular time of day they use these facilities will be posed to’,-‘; survey participants. It is hoped as well that information on age, facmarital status and ulty, place of residence of the sample . population will give the CCB an indication of who the heaviest users of the center are.

Currently, the Campus Centre is facing -serious financial difficulties, Due to the continuous cutback of funds allowed for salaries, CC must rely more and more upon a specified percentage of the revenue from the games room. This room offers such facilities as a pool table, pinball machines and a jukebox. Turnkey figures indicate that the room is used heavily now and this

Student goes to tri>al Last Thursday February 26th was trial day for Robert Ko, a 22 year old architecture student charged with attempted theft and assault after an incident in the occupied Federation offices on July 17th last summer. Several students and non-students occupied the Federation of Students offices last summer in an attempt to persuade Federation President Neil Freeman to call a General Meeting on the issue of the Fee Hike Strike. There were three prosecution witnesses, and one defense witness, in addition to Ko himself. Ko was defended by Federation lawyer Gary Flaxwhile Crown bard, Attorney Wilson acted as prosecuter. Brigid Rowe, a visa student in Computer Science last summer, and object of the alleged assault, was unable to appear. Her student visa expired in September at which time Rowe left the country. Ko was found guilty on the first count - that of attempted theft. During a lengthy examination, Judge Reilly announced that Ko “clearly had criminal intent”, since he had attempted to take property which was not his and to do with that

property as he wished. The judge also stated that Ko’s conduct was “demonstrably infantile” and “accomplished nothing.” On the second count, assault, Judge Reilly stated he found Ko “not guilty by a very fine hair”. He said he felt tht Ko’s conduct was “generally assaultive and violent in nature” but that there was n’ot conclusive evidence to show that his conduct was intentional. He continued by stating that had Miss Rowe testified, his verdict might have been very different. KO was told by the judge, “What you are guilty of is robbery, for you stole goods, and what you did was violent .” Having heard from defense lawyer Flaxbard, that the verdict of guilt for the attempted theft was Ko’s first offense and that it would effect Ko’s future architect, Judge as an Reilly granted a six month conditional discharge. Robert Ko’s defense cost $400 and was paid by the Federation of Students, initially on Freeman’s authority and later by a decision of Federaiton council. Incoming Federation President Wim Simonis maintained that the Federation paid for Ko’s defense because he was a student at the university, was ineligible for legal aid (since the matter

was a criminal one), and because the charge could have prevented Ko from obtaining his architect’s licence over what Simonis regards as a rather trivial incident. Maggie Thompson Stu Dollar

When questioned, one Turnkey stated that the CC has been able tb maintain the same number of Turnkey shifts as one year ago. However, the Turnkey noted, ’ this maintenance has only been possible because of the games room’s revenues used to augment salaries. continued

US calls treaty talk “laughable” Washington US officials preparing for President Ronald Reagan’s visit to Canada next week regard as “laughable” a statement by External Affairs Minister Mark MacGuigan that Canada will require guarantees from the US Senate before negotiating another bilateral treaty. Mr. MacGuigan made the statement in New York last month in reference to the Canada-US fisheries treaty. The pact was signed almost two years ago, but the Senate has refused to ratify it. During the March lo-11 visit, the first by a US president since 1972, Ottawa will seek assurances from the new Administration that it will push the Senate as hard as possible on the fish treaty. The Canadian official said serious issues would be discussed during about six hours of talks scheduled, between Mr. Reagan and Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. (G & M, Mar. 3)

Smith tells of bad economic news In the final three weeks of the provincial election campaign, one question is nagging Liberal Leader Stuart Smith: Will Ontario voters embrace a messenger who delivers bad economic news?

If Liberal strategists are right, Dr. Smith’s claim that Ontario has fallen behind the other provinces in economic growth will be the catalyst that takes the fizzle out of Premier William Davis’s formula for a Conservative majority. If he’s wrong - as at least one recent poll suggests - the decision to put all the Liberal eggs into one basket will go down in the province’s political annals as a blunder of colossal proportions. Measured by five important economic yardsticks, the province in 1970-77 was in 19th and last place among the provinces in: growth rate of per capita gross provincial product (the total value of all goods and services produced in a year): growth rate of per capita income; growth rate of per capita disposable income (the amount of income left after taxes); growth rate of pubic investment, and growth rate of residential construction.

Paris French President Valery Giscard d’Estaing formally announced last night that he-would make a bid-to retain power for another seven-year term.

Less than two months ago, the polls gave Mr. Giscard a comfortable ten to twenty

The tentative one-year agreement between the Letter Carriers Union of Canada and the federal Treasury Board gives the letter carriers a wage increase of 70 cents an hour and continues a cost-of-living formula. The terms are being submitted to the membership this week-for ratification. The increase would bring the hourly rate for a letter carrier with two years service to $9.98 or $395.20 for a 40hour week, including a halfhour paid lunch period each day. The new, hourly figure would include the incorporation of an existing 38 cents an hour in cost-of-living allowance.

London - Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer are spen-, ding the first days of their betrothal working their way through an avalanche of congratulatory messages from all over the world. “They are going to try to read them all and they will acknowledge as many as they can. There are literally thousands, many from private individuals,” a spokesman said as bags of letters and telegrams were casrried into Buckingham Palace. Fashion commentators, experts on the peerage, marriage guidance counsellors, psychologists and astrologers are being pressed into service by the media, eager for every pearl of fact or fiction from anyone with a view on the impending marriage of the Prince of Wales, 32, and Lady Diana, 19. The headline writers are having a field day, with such brainstorms as The King and Di leaping in giant type from the front pages of every tabloid newspaper.

Maybe they are including all those people who are really gay and just do not realize it.

The gays seem -to be trying to convince the public that they are normal people. I am not arguing that they are not normal in the sense that they hold jobs, go to movies, etc. like anybody else, including wife beaters, child molestors and anybody else afflicted with one of

several sexual sicknesses. I accept the fact that gays are people. I do not feel I should be expected to believe that they are normal people. Even more‘so; I resent the ‘chic to be gay’ syndrome that seems to be infecting society. I realize that I run the risk of being labelled an intollerant, reactionary grump. So be it. I prefer that to remaining silent, and thereby giving tacit approval to people who insist on flaunting their abnormal sexual preferences. Pete Corbett 3A Electrical Engineering

sentence with completing my B.A. The Imprint rises above the Chevron’s abyss, but only into mediocrity. It appears as a paper written for the faculty and staff of UW, not the student. I am somewhat interested in the creative endeavours of fellow students, but barely interested in sports (that’s a common problem with every newspaper). I do get a great laugh out of THE campus issue: tuition hikes and student strike. A student going on strike against tuition increases is like s an unemployment insurance recipient going on strike for higher pay; they went out in the 60’s, kids. Can’t the Imprint find more progressive issues than this? Now, I’m not an English major, but let me put Canadian satire into MY perspective. Since the “alienation crisis” in Quebec literature, originating in the earlier ’ 1950's (or deference to more knoz ledgable readers), Canadians have worked this identity problem into their satire. “Black humour”, biting satire has been a tradition since Leacock’s time. The National Lampoon, a very successful “humour” magazine, boasted faculty members of Loyola University on its editorial staff in its earlier years. That is, until the be-jowled, whitehaired and over-weight Board of Governors put an end to their contracts. (I’ll bet the Chevron’s would love to organize a strike over that, eh?) The ultraConservative censuring element at UW is not the Board of Governors, but a few select of the student body. Is this progress? What’s the difference between National Lampoon and Enginews? About two dollars a copy. Both use the word “fuck” and refer to bestiality and necrophilia (women libbers should read this month’s edition of Lampoon if they want something to scream about), but one can be sold on the streets and the other cannot be given away. Both rage at indecipherable elements of social mores (especially those of racist-sexist overtones) but Enginews goes one step further by foaming over campus issues. Who are these censors,

these false figure-heads of student morality? Where do they come from? From within...maybe that’s why Enginews exists. I’ll agree that Enginews became a little too personal in its attacks but isn’t Mr. Trudeau, by virtue of his public position and noteriety, under the same Jype of criticism ? If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. My hat is off to those who voted against financially supporting the Enginews (that’s satire, dummy), and the Horse’s Ass Award goes to those too gelatine-boned to vote against this gag order (that’s not satire)...

Hunger Projects chairperson begs to differ The Editor: The Feb. 20th issue of Imprint featuring the Hunger Project, described our organization in such an inaccurate and misleading manner, I feel compelled to to reply, and convey Imprint’s readers, a clear understanding of what The Hunger Project is really all about. The Hunger Project exists to provide individual understanding that in the spectrum of world history, the time has come to end world hunger. The context that this can be done has now been created and is the framework within which all hunger relief agencies are now operating. The purpose of The Hunger Project is to shift debate from whether or not hunger can be eliminated, to a framework whereby hunger’s existence will no longer be tolerated. The Hunger Project is a grassroots organization of individuals committed to ending world hunger by the turn of the century. Basically, there are three key facts concerning world hunger 1) Hunger can end we have the resources to feed everyone on this planet. 2) Hunger has not ended 41,000 people die every day continued

as a result , of hunger (28/minute, 21 of which are children). 3) The third fact is that there is no demand that hunger end. These facts are substantiated by the National Academy of Sciences in their report on World Hunger, 1977, the Presidential Commission on World Hunger, 1980, and the Brandt Commission Report, 1980, which emphasizes that “Mankind has never before had such ample technical and financial resources for coping with hunger and poverty. The immense task can be tackled once the necessar.y collective will is mobilized. What is necessary can be done, and must be done.” Thus, the role of The Hunger Project is to provide that missing link, mobilizing public will to action. All Hunger Project funds are spent to further this end. This endeavor is being carried out through a number of activities: 1) Enrollment: By signing the Hunger Project enrollment car3 individuals express their personal committment to having hunger end and their willingness to take some action. 2) Public Education: All participants receive a quarterly newspaper called ,A Shift in the Wind which features interviews with hunger experts and specific ideas for individual Involvement in ending hunger. Education for Action Days are now being planned across North America to increase public awareness, and thus precipitate further action. 3) Individual Participation: One of the fundamental principles of the Hunger Project is that individual committment and participation are key factors in ending hunger. 4) Support of Hunger Organizations: During the Cambodian crisis $90,000 we spent on newspaper ads generated at least $l,OOO,OOO to direct relief agencies. In July 1980, The Hunger Project sponsored a Symposium,~ of major hunger relief agencies reaffirming the power and potential of working together as a community. We now

In 1997, twelve major presentations of the principles of the Hunger Project were made in eleven U.S. cities, resulting in an initial enrollment of over 25,000 people. About 60% of those attending the initial presentations were graduates of the est training. Today, the number of people participating in the Project who are not associated with est far

In 1980, it received United Nations status as a U.N. Non-Governmental Organization, in recognition of the unique and important role it plays. The Hunger Project is not tied to or controlled by any other organization or individual. Its books receive

Herpes onincreasci infections of other parts of the body, usually cold sores on the lips or mouth, are caused by Type I virus. Once this virus invades the body, it causes symptoms for just a few days. It then becomes dormant and continues to live in the cells of the body, re-erupting from time to time, for the rest of the person’s life.

Sweeney says that rationalization is “unfortunate, but an awful lot more practical given the reality of today”. Peter Hoy, who was present at the talk and who heads the Election Action Committee, disagreed with Sweeney by stating that the money is there to support the present system. However, Sweehey said additional funds would still be needed and tax increases are not really viable give situati 6 n. our economic Taxing large corporations to raise the funds is impractical, says Sweeney, because they are extremely mobile and can relocate where corporate taxes are less. Sweeney also discussed the role of the university in

-Campus The use of other Campus Centre facilities is also increasing significantly. Cinema Gratis, although recently plagued by technical difficulties, has also seen a slight increase in attendance. Turnkeys attribute this increase in part to the better quality of movies shown. When questioned as to what suggestions patrons of the Campus Centre make for future improvements, the Turnkeys indicate that these vary. New games and magazines are among the most popular requests. The installation of a copying machine is also a frequent suggest ion. One thing that the Turnkeys feel certain about is that Dr. Baxter’s survey results will confirm the need for the Campus Centre to remain open twenty-four hours a day, “There are always people here,” commented one Turnkey. Students use the facility to study through

the field of research. He stated he feels that the University of Waterloo could be one of five provincial research centres, and, as such, would receive incentives in the form of tax cuts. Sweeney feels more research at the university level is one way to help our sliding economy recover. In the area of Cooperative educatron, Sweeney feels that the idea of experiencing both theoretical and practical learning is very realistic in today’s , economy. Furthermore, he emphasized that this method keeps the teaching system very alert to changes needed to keep pace with the job market. However, Sweeney also stated that to expand the Co-op system would be a mistake since there is a lack of valuable job placements available, and “. . . already job placements are highly questionable!‘. Dave Petrasek

Centrethe night, as a meeting place and even as a place to relax after a venture at the Bombshelter Pub, they noted. Until now, the Campus Centre has been able to remain open twenty-four. hours a day, three hundred and sixty five days each year. One Turnkey comment ed, “We+ offer a friendly face and that’s important to everyone.” An increase in financial cutbacks could threaten this. With costs soaring, the funds from the games room can only cover the money gap, left by cutbacks, for a short while. While the planning b survey could prov’ide the Campus Centre Board with important material for future expansion ‘plans, financial cutbacks make any’ such ventures uncertain. Imprint will publish the results of the Planning 307 survey as soon as they are made available. Julie Lynne Joyce

Herpes genitalis is a disease of the genital organs caused by the-Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), which is also called Herpes Virus Hominus (HVH). There are two closely related kinds of herpes virus, named simply Type I and Type II. Herpes infection of the genitals is usually caused by the Type II virus, while

-- March

How is herpes VD transmitted? This disease is communicable. It travels from person to person by sexual intercourse, whether it be genital, oral-genital, or anal. The risk of contracting the disease, like all other venereal diseases, increases when an individual has an increasing number of sexual partners. There are a number of symptoms. After an unknown incubation period following the infecting intercourse, one or several groups of small and painful bumps or blisters appear .on the sexual organs.

I~I, women, the areas most often affected are the vaginal area, where sores may spread. The clitoris, outer part of the vagina, anal area, and cervix (where sores are painless and usually not noticed) can be involved as well. In heterosexual men, the glans or shaft of the penis are the most commonly affected areas; homosexual men can also have blisters in or around the anus. Blisters which form soon rupture to form soft, painful open sores on a reddish base. The sores are covered by a yellow-grey secretion. If bacteria infect the‘ exposed tissues, the sores discharge and the lymph glands in the groin may become tender and enlarged. After 4 or 5 days the sores become less painful and begin to heal by themselves. The

skin is gradually replaced starting from the edges of each sore. Sores usually heal completely, with little if any scarring, by the end of IO to 20 days. In some cases, the sores never re-appear, but in others, they may appear once or several times again, and the whole 1~20 day healing process will occur again. The herpes virus is most likely to be re-activated when the body is weakened by such things as fever, stress, emotional problems, sunburn, fatigue, menstrual tension, etc. The best defence against recurrences is to maintain the body in a state of good health by sufficient good food, rest, and exercise. Precautions against this disease are simple and inexpensive. Whenever having sexual intercourse when you

feel there may be a risk of contracting or spreading herpes VD, use a good quality condom and a spermicidal foam, however a., condom alone should be sufficient if foam is not available at the time. If there are genital sores apparent, use the condom and foam, and avoid oral-genital contact until the sores have completely healed. Finally, if you are sexually active, and have questions about herpes, you may wish to consult a nurse or doctor at Health Services, your personal physician, or a VD clinic operated by the public health department. Health professionals will treat you with the utmost respect and confidentiality. However, the first step must be yours, since your health is your own responsibility. Margaret Steen

Saturday, February 14, at 9 am: over 500 women crowd into Room 200 of the, West Block of Parliament. Nearly the same number jam two other rooms nearby. More arrive all the time. They had come from every province and territory in Canada to talk about a subject that many of them, three weeks ago, had not even known was a problem--the protection of their rights in the proposed constitution. And ironically enough, they had come because the government had tried to cover up that problem. The furor had started a month before, when the executive of the Canadian Advisory Council on the Status of Women had voted to postpone a conference on women and the constitution scheduled for Feb. 13-24. Council president Doris Anderson was furious, and charged that Lloyd Axworthy, Minister responsible for the Status of Women, had asked executive members to postpone the conference because it might embarrass the government.Anderson took the issue to the full council, expecting it to back her. When council didn’t, she resigned. Amid the fracas, a group of women from Ottawa and Toronto decided to hold their own conference to replace the cancelled conference and to discuss the proper role and structure of the Advisory Council. The Council was set up in 1973, in response to a recommendation from the Royal Commission on the Status of Women. It has four full-time, and 27 parttime members from across Canada, supposedly chosen for their varied background of professional concerns. Anderson has charged however that the main criterion for membership is not ability, but membership in the Liberal party. Anderson herself was chosen as president after she had run for the Liberals in Toronto. Under Anderson’s predecessor, Yvette Rousseau, the council considered its job to be the production of research studies and occasionally at parliamentary appear committees. When Anderson arrived in 1979, she changed it into a lobby group for women. “The advisory council was a very good concept far better than , the government ever realized when it set it up,” she said. Under Anderson, the council’s budget was doubled and the research staff increased. In six months, the council pre- * sented six briefs to government committees. “We provided advocacy groups of women pith the ammunition they needed to spproach the government. No wonder the government began to feel kind of uncomfortable.” The problems really started, she said, when the

council sent letters to both Prime Minister Trudeau and Axworthy about the problems in the proposed Charter of Rights. Although both letters were handdelivered, Trudeau received his copy, while Axworthy “did not get his”. “So Mr. Axworthy spent most of the fall complaining that we were ill-informed.” By December,. she said, Axworthy was telling her he was reviewing all areas of funding for &omen, including the co.uncil. “He then added, ‘Some of these bodies may have served a useful purpose in the past, but now is the time to reassess.’ I considered that a direct threat.” The boiling point came when the council’s executive discussed rescheduling a conference on women and the constitution. The conference had to be postponed last September, Anderson said, because of the disruption of a translator’s strike, and had been reslated to February. Then on a day when Anderson was out of town, Council vice-president Hellie Wilson met with Axworthy. The Minister told Wilson he preferred the conference be postponed to May, when it would not interfere with the debate in the House. A few days later the executive voted 5-1 to postpone. According to leaked minutes of that meeting, vice-president Win Gardner said her vote to postpone had “nothing to do with the fact that the minister is a dear and close personal friend of mine.” Instead, she said, “I am voting for cancelling the conference because we looked like fools the last time and I am not ready to look like one again and put our minister in an embarrassing situation towards his government .” The vice-presidents have signed an affadavit, which they will not release, saying the minutes are inaccurate. The secretary who took the minutes has launched a libel suit against the vicepresidents, saying her professional reputation has -been damaged. Ax.worthy has denied any pressure saying there was nothing wrong in discussing his ideas with the council, and he was not “twisting arms.” At this point, Anderson took the decision to the full council, where it was upheld 17-10. She immediately resigned, as did four other council members- and three of the council’s staff. Amid the uproar over her resignation, about 50 women from Ottawa and Toronto decided to orgar$ze a substitute conference. With organizational help from the Tories and NDP, they found rooms and speakers and prepared to expect about

250 women. However, a week before the conference, they were already over that figure. Sparked by the controversy, over 1,000 women registered. And, in spite of partisan political differences, they managed to unite in condemning many points in the government’s *

charter of rights and Axworthy’s pressure on the council. Thus, Axworthy’s move backfired. Instead of dampening women’s criticisms of the proposed charter, the furor over the. postponed conference brought them to the attention manv

If we have a charter of rights in the Constitution, won’t our rights then be guaranteed? Not necessarily, according to experts at the Women and the Constitution Conference. At least five clauses in the Trudeau government’s proposed Charter of Rights are so poorly worded, they said, that the only people they’ll help will be the lawyers who will conduct the interminable court battles over their interpretation. Even worse, they predict that many of the worst court decisions agaiainst women would not be changed under the charter. l .Clause 1 of the proposed charter guarantees the rights spelled out in the charter “subject to reasonable limits in law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.” Ottawa lawyer Tamra Thomson dubbed this the “Mack Truck” clause because, she said, it allows the said, it allows the allows the government to drive through rights at any time. l Clause 7 guarantees life, liberty and security to “everyone.” Unfortunately, according to Victoria lawyer Deborah Acheson, there is no legal definition of “everyone”, inviting long, involved court battles over issues such as whether a foetus would be covered by the clause. The conference recommended that “person”, which has been legally defined, be used throughout the charter to specify a human being, l Clause 15 (1) guarantees equality before the law and equal protection and benefit from the law for everyone without discrimination, particularly on the basis of sex, race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, or age. According to Queen’s law professor Beverly Baines, however, its wording is “too vague” to unambiguously tell the courts no discrimination is allowed. ., Unless ’ it is made stranger, she said, judges will only consider whether the discrimination is relevant td the purpose of the legislation. On that basis, the Supreme Court ruled that native women who marry white men lose their Indian status, although Indian men who marry white women do not. l Clause 15 (2) allows affirmative action programs for disadvantaged individuals or groups. However, Thomson pointed out this clause would allow a BakkG case in Canada, where persons not. part of a disadvantaged group could claim they were being discriminated against by

affirmative action pro-’ grams. The conference recommended the clause only mention groups, arguing that disadvantaged persons would be part of disadvantaged groups. 26 specifies l Clause that the entire charter be interpreted in light of Canada’s multi-cultural heritage. Acheson pointed that this out, though, would include rights of equality in clause 15, possibly allowing sexual discrimination if it were culturally based.

She suggested that this might even allow clause genital mutilation of women because such mutilation is part of some African cultures. The conference recommended the clause be put in a preamble to the charter. l Clause 29 (2) specifies that none of the equality rights in clause 15 will come into force until three years after the rest of the charter has been applied. The conference asked this clause be deleted, on the grounds there was no need for the delay. Even if these problems are solved, will the charter be a better protection for women’s rights? Opinions are divided. On one side, Thomson argued that the charter will be a better protection because it will act as an umbrella over other laws and cannot be repealed at any time like present Human Rights Acts. As well, she said, it will give women another forum government in besides which to press for changes, and will act as a standard for government action. But Lynn MacDonald, president of the National Action Committee on the Status of Women, disagreed. The charter would be taking power away from legislatures and giving it to the courts, she pointed out, but legislatures have been shown to be more sensitive to women’s rights than the courts. And, according to Margaret Fern, president of the Saskatchewan Advisory council on the Status of Women, any unforseen deficiencies in the charter will be “extraordinarily difficult” to remove once it is in place. If the charter is passed unchanged, it will probably be at least another six years before the first cases reach the Supreme Court and women see the charter’s first effects. But, unless the courts are extraordinarily liberal in their interpretations, the prognosis is not good.

as Minister responsible for the Status of Women and for a wholesale restructuring of the council, and demanded a complete review of the council by women outside the government. They further asked that the council report directly to Parliament, to prevent future ministerial interference, and that it be established by statute rather than order-incouncil to ensure it could not be easily removed. And they requested that all members of the council be appointed by an allparty committee on the basis of expertise and

authority and represent different women’s ‘interests, instead of one political party. The government did agree to look at the conference’s proposals. However, immediately after the conference, Prime -Minister Trudeau offered to incorporate all the changes if the Tories would support the patriation resolution. As expected, the Tories did not take up his offer. Axworthy later told the lobby group he would discuss their concerns with the government. However, conference spokespersons said they

On Saturday morning the Latin American Committee for Human Rights plans to sponsor a talk by a Latin American woman on the need for human rights for women in Latin America. This talk will be followed by a march to Gore Park in support of “The Mad Women of May Square”, a group of courageous Argentinian women who march to their market square every Saturday to protest the imprisonment or mysterious disappearance of their friends and relatives. Sunday night, Hamilton women are having a “lowwith the key” party talented singer/songwriter April Kassirer at McMaster’s Blast Furnace. London women also held a recent art exhibit. They plan to stage a march on Saturday, to be followed by a dance that night.

This will be followed by a Women’s Fair from l-4 pm at Harbord Collegiate, 286 Harbord St, with daycare provided at this event. That evening there will ber an all-women’s celebration and dance at 519 Church Street.

As well, there will be a cash bar. The admission is $2.50 and it is an open party. The theme is “Women or men, ‘gay’ or ‘straight’ Come along and celebrate”. (It doesn’t scan, but of course Women had to be first, in light of the occasion.) If you’re “straight” and you’re shy about coming to

a party wlth “gay” people or if your concern i: precisely the opposite, don’t worry about it. Nobody is going to care om way or another and mos won’t be dancing in couples, anyway.

Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) is a rare, sometimes fatal condition characterized by a sudden onset of high fever, vomiting and/or diarrhea. A sunburn-like rash appears in its victims followed by rapid progression to low blood pressure and shock. The duration of the illness is usually 4-5 days in the acute phase and 1-2 weeks of convalescence. Approximately 10% of the reported cases have resulted in death and most deaths have occurred within a week. TSS occurs ‘mainly in women less than 30 years old, particularly during or just after a menstrual period. Health researchers have only recenty become aware df TSS and research is continuing to provide new information regarding this problem. What has been found is that TSS is caused by a bacteria known as Staphlococcus aureus and has been associated with all brands of tampons. The theory that links TSS to tampons is that the tampons provide a breeding ground for bacteria which enter the bloodstream via tiny cuts in the vaginal wall also caused by the tampon. . The bacteria, Staphlococcus aureus, produces a toxin which leads to TSS. Studies hatie shown that TSS occurs at the rate of 15 per 100,000 menstruating

women and the chance of recurrence is 30%. While recent report: have found the incidence of TSS to be declining, it is important for all women to be aware of the symptoms of TSS and know what to do in the event that they contract these symptoms. If such symptoms do develop and you are using tampons at the time, remove the tampon and see your doctor immediately. Certain preventative measures can be taken to decrease the risk of getting TSS. Women can almost entirely eliminate their risk of getting TSS by not using tampons. This may be impractical for various reasons, so if you choose to use tampons, you can decrease the risk by using them intermittently during each menstrual period AlThough the risks of getting TSS are small, there have been 73 deaths in the United States from TSS. Weather or not individual women decide to take steps to decrease their personal risk, the most important thing they can do is to be aware of the fact that TSS exists, and can happen to them. Campus Health Services and the Health Studies Department recommend that women be able to recognise the symptoms, and know what to do if these symptoms develop. Cathy Broeren

Pianist Plaunt made s for -“Concord” Sonata

Friday night’s K-W Chamber Music concert with pianist Tom Plaunt was. memorable in many ways. Plaunt studied piano in Detmbld, West Germany, for five years, and is now on the faculty of music at ,McGill. His concert here at Waterloo was the beginning of a series of concerts leading up to a performance in Carnegie Hall in the fall of 1982. The main work on his program is the monumental “Concord” sonata by the American composer Charles Ives. Plaunt played 3 of the 4 movements on Friday night and displayed a marked affinity for the large-scale, rough-hewn piece. Although the sonata poses tremendous technical problems, Plaunt was able to override these with ease. In his introductory-remarks he said, “every note feels to me as if I’m coming home ,” and Plaunt certainly does perform Ives superbly. The “Concord” sonata is the sort of work that an audience cannot grasp intellectually. Nor can one appreciate it solely as a technical

-Maurice

exercise. It is program music, and must convey the open, -honest, early American mood. Plaunt was able to capture this well because he is, *as a performer, more athletic than aesthetic. His personal playing style, which is so admirably suited to the Ives,‘made for quite unusual renditions of Mozart and Schubert in the first half of the program. Plaunt is a powerful player, who infused the Mozart “Fantasia and Sonata in c (K. 457)” and three of the Schubert ‘fImpromptus op. 90” with excessive strength and energy. While his precipitant runs were impressive in ‘themselves, they were out of character with the pieces and detracted from the overall effect. This was unfortunate, since there were many excellent details in Plaunt’s playing. For example, his pedalling was at all times clean, but not too dry. He accurately observed fine points of phrasing, and in answering sections had perfect balance between the, p-arts. Slow sections were thoughtful, and there was good differentiation between dynamic levels. . For classical works though, Plaunt’s ’ approach was a. little too straightforward. Many sections, particularly in the Schubert, cried out for the type of cantabile playing which Plaunt later unexpectedly exhibited in the Ives. The final concert in the piano series will be given on April 23rd by Kenneth Hull, who is a professor in the music department of University of Waterloo. His program includes another large American work, namdy the Copland “sonata”, and Schubert’s posthumous “sonata in B-flat”. Jean Chick

Critics are often criticized for using excessively grandiloquent ‘language when ‘bestowing praise on performers that they admire. For Mau ce Andre and the Wuerttemberg Cha ,” ber Orchestra there is no possible way the reviewer can use superfluous superlatives. Andre, one of the reigning princes of the trumpet world today, along with this widely recorded and world-renowned orchestra gave what must be called the “concert of the year” in the Centre in the Square on Tuesday evening. The orchestra chose to present a program of guaranteed crowd pleasers, shying away from any. modern or avant-garde works. But while many works were widely known, their performance was hardly common place! \ Although Andre was \without question the ‘star of the show, he was a p&us inter pares. The Wuerttemberg Orchestra was obviously in its own right outstanding from the opening bars of the Vivaldi concerto for violin from the “L’Estro Armonico”. Vivaldi is always technically -demanding, but these consummate musicians were up to the task, giving an exceptionally crisp and clean performance. Thanks to conductor Jorge Faerber, the group captured the infectious exhuberance of of Venice. Particularly that “red priest” noteworthy among the soloists was cellist Stefan Trauer, who let his instrument sing with a lush and remarkably full tone. What stood out in, Mendelssohn’s “Concerto iri D Minor” for violin that followed was the ensemble’s fine precision and their unblemished finish, giving the sound the feel . of smooth velvet. Soloist George Egger was superb in this work of the youthful Mendelssohn, but at times in the second movement he seemed a bit too timid. The lively dance-like final movement was given a spontaneous vigour by Faerber that made it especially enjoyable. Tchaikousky’s “Serenade in C”, for strings, is’a popular favourite but at the hands of this

In concerti by Stolzel and Tartini (German and Italian baroque show pieces written with an eye to the virtuoso) this master dazzled the audience, showing just how he has earned his impressive laurels. It would be futile to explain just how he was excellent, for this type’of excellence is defined by Andre’s performances. His personality and stage presence deserve mention. He is a portly man of formidable proportions (which provides a rather interesting contrast for the small piccolo trumpet that he plays) who doesn’t hesitate to show his love for the. music by swaying, rolling his eyes in delight, and quietly conducting to himself. He exudes an irresistible that G allic charm adds immeasurably to his performance.

Mime

I remember reading once that the standard way to raking in the dough in show-biz is to find something which is successful, then repeat the formula (with variations of course) until it is no longer profitable., Such is the case with Moe Koffman and Company and the UW Arts Centre; I’m afraid they have milked Koffman for all he’s worth. Last Monday, Koffman returned for the third time in the past few years to a half empty theatre, with another show following. Of course the ensemble’s abilities were excellent; the usual flattery “they blended well”, “ their timing was perfect”, “the balance was good”, “they know their instruments” could certainly apply. However, after the first number, enthusiasm and gut feeling waned. So well rehearsed was the repertoire that the group’s playing came automatically. They may as well have performed in their sleep. Only drummer Joe Bendzsa seemed unaffected and “really went to town”. BUT...1 must say that this concert stuff is not for Koffm,an. Not being a Koffman fan in particular, I took the chance to give ear to a few of his albums. “Wonderful”, I thought. Then I discovered that Koffman on disc is different from Koffman on stage. The tunes on record are pithy and to the point, with the next melody being a complete contrast. Live, the numbers were extremely long and showed signs of improvisation. But after a time, all the numbers sounded the same.

Last Saturday, the Canadian mime troupe, Theatre Beyond Words appeared at the Humanities in a special two part performance. For children from pre-school to twelve years of age, a matinee was held featuring “The Potato People”. A second show was staged later in the day. Beginning this back-to-back feature is a critique of the evening performance followed by,a review of the afternoon showing. . The entire company took part and made Weird, weird, weird . . . “The Potato People”, a mask-mime play, “The Potato People” exciting. The masks Theatre Beyond Words, last Saturday set out to affect a cartoon-like atmosphere, worn were nondescript, yet because of the night at our very own Humanities Theatre full of life and the gentle humour of the company’s energy, the masks moved at a was weird. Saturday comics section. weirdly slow and The performance, sometimes weirdly unfunny, was weirdly without comment and without timing. The opening piece, overture, was inspired. Using a length of rope, the company engaged in some very fine mime. The rope was at one moment the strings of a human harp, at, another the lines on a piece of sheet music, and at another ‘moment a clothesline. Such material resulted in a piece truly full of imagination. Next came “Tourists”, (a foreshadowing of the Potato People), incorporating large, overlife-sized masks and tourist-y clothing. With instamatics popping madly, the company gave the tourists a circus-like flavour. As they rode their tour bus, their tour guide . whipped them and made them leap and look at the sights as if they were trained animals. Very funny. Then . . . weirdly enough, the next six somehow without pieces all seemed comment or point. *“Lucky Star” wasn’t really mime, but sort of theatre, locked within words. “Angel”, artistic Director Harro Maskow’s solo effort, was a crime in mime.

Of course the tunes were broken up by solos (mainly keyboards and guitar), but these too lasted an eternity and were directionless. The quintet seemed to be wandering aimlessly through the musical staffs in their minds. Sure, improvisation and spontaneity are good things, but so is ice cream and. didn’t your mother ever tell you that too much of a good thing is not good?! Another difference between platter and concert is that one can occupy one’s self with ,other activities in front of the stereo. Let’s ‘face it, Koffman does not lend himself to a great visual performance, so this perfor-mance is kind of a drag to watch. At George’s (where Koffman usually plays), people are busy feeding their other senses. At the Humanities, one is crammed upright with nothing to do. If it hadn’t been so dark I would have pulled out some homework. . . .--As well, the Humanities just does not possess the right atmosphere. I would much trather have heard Koffman in a smoke-filled ;bar where I could relax, snap my fingers, maybe even boogie with the band. (This may have been a tonic for the quintet, too, as it’s dull to play to a bunch of upright middle class zombies). At Hum, there isn’t even enough room to tap your big toe.

Unfortunately, the barriers created during the first part of the program and the second could not be totally erased by “The Potato People”. Perhaps the company’s time could be spent on taking “Potato People” energy and timing a nd spreading it over their other pieces. Theatre Beyond Words may otherwise remain merely weird, weird, weird.

An overly cliched family situation was the setting for “Potato People” performed by the touring mime company Theater Beyond Words. In a sold out theatre, children delighted to the antics of Mama, Papa and Nancy Potato, Iodine and Bartlett Pearblossom and Bud the dog. The play is a masked mime done in the style to this a vivacious pre-adolescent Iodine Pearblossom and her auspicious father, plus a persistently meddling dog the comic possibilities become endless. The four company members plus the artistic director, Harro Maskow, are all professionally trained mime artists with a broad ranger of theater credits. Two of the company members, Robin Patterson and Charles P. Scott as we!1 as Maskow studied both in Canada and in Paris at Ecole Jaques Lecoq. The two other members of the company, Paulette Hallich and Terry Judd both worked with the Canadian Mime theater. Judd has also performed at Stratford. of the North American cartoon. The family situation is vastly stylized; many conflicts are set up and resolved in a humorous manner. Mama Potato is a zealous neat-and-clean freak, Father Potato likes to enjoy the finer points of a liesurely existence, while Nancy Potato is a very exuberant young child. Add The strength of this production lies in the children and adults, relating the conflicts on the stage to those they experience in their own or other family situations. Mime is particularly well suited to this kind of play as it frees the audience to arrive at their own conclusions about the resolutions of the conflicts between the various personalities.

Tim Wynne-Jones, author of the award winning novel Odd’s End, is a familiar personality around the campus of the University of Waterloo. He spent his undergraduate days here studying Fine Arts, and, as a graphicist, was a frequent contributor to the various student publications of the day. Since graduating in 1974, he has remained in the area (he now lives in Toronto) completing a masters degree at York, and has made his way as a book designer, illustrator, actor and singer, as a writer of children’s books, radio dramas and as a faculty member at both York and Waterloo. Seemingly an indefatigable Renaissance man, Wynne-Jones has now scored his first major triumph upon publication of Odd’s End. The fact that Wynne-Jones becomes the third winner of Seal Books $50,000 First Novel Award must be gratifying, but surely more gratifying than that less-than-prestigious award is the reception of his work by the critics. Odd’s End has been hailed as a success, and justifiably so. The book is a mystery novel and like all good mysteries must rely on suspense, development, and some sort of twist to enable the reader to suffer along with the victim. Wynne-Jones has combined these ingredients with consummate skill and in addition, his twist has an extra dimension, a characteristic which separates the good from the superior mystery. Wynne-Jones himself has described Odd’s End as “a book about the idea of mystery”.

After reading the novel that phrase becomes a very meaningful comment since the mystery itself remains a mystery to both the victims and the reader until the second half of the book. The events unfold: the victims are impressed by the implausibility of it all; the reader is impressed by the sense of humour of the perpetrator. Little do we realize. . . . The perpetrator is a Mr. X “(You may call me that, people do)“, he parenthetically remarks early in the novel, *and Mr. X is himself a victim of injustice. As one who identified most strongly with the physical space around him, he grew up looking for the security that was taken away when his father lost his home during the depression. He began an odyssey that has continued for more than 30 years: a search for that lost home. Odd’s End is the fruition of the search. It is a 19th century house situated on a quiet cove along the Nova Scotia shoreline. For Mr. X it is perfection. For its occupants, living in their peaceful house becomes an unreal experience, one which nibbles at their assumptions of familiar space, eventually undermining their nonchalance, their self-confidence, their marriage, and finally, their sanity. For example, the occupants, Mary and Malcolm Close, arrive home one evening to find prepared for them a gourmet dinner vichyssoise, truffles, endive, chestnuts in wine sauce, escargot, fettucini, roast pheasant, coconut souffle, and more. Apparently both Mary and Malcolm have a history of practical jokes and each assumes the other is responsible. The enormity of the joke and the continued protestations of denial soon take _ away the humour (and the appetite), and the story is underway.

of Malcolm and Mary, nudging the suspicions of each that Mary and Malcolm are the victims of an increasingly cruel’ joke by Malcolm and Mary, respectively. While the two grow more irrational before our eyes, Mr. X becomes sublime, a man in control, an artiste; we gain pleasure from his delicate machinations, his deft manipulations. But the drama becomes diabolical; the humour becomes psychological terror. The reader realizes only gradually the extent of the ploy, and in this he or she is surprised, tricked, and also the victim of the intellectual manipulation of Mr. X. The tactics become more bizarre, more personally insulting as he drives his wedge between the two. One can only take the plot of a mystery novel so far in a review and frankly WynneJones handles plot development far better than I am able to describe here. One interesting aspect of the twist is that Wynne-Jones changes position in the novel. In the beginning, he narrates from the point of view of the nameless villain. By the end, he has changed places. Without changing the structure of the novel, the part of the villain becomes less a narration and more of a letter to the reader, a subtle change but one which alters the reader’s perception. It’s as if the reader suddenly becomes aware, at the same time as do the victims, of the real nature of the game. The seriousness is revealed, the ruthlessness is unveiled. The ante is raised. Odd’s End is a brilliant piece of fiction, one in which readers of mysteries will delight. David Arseneault

From the beginning, it is the implausibility of the scheme, from the point of view of Malcolm and Mary, which is the key to its success, the very fact that the villain’s most successful acts are those which he does for his victim rather than to them.

In case you were wondering, there will be a little music for everyotie: a little jazz, for you Pat Metheuny fans; a little folk, for you folkies; a Jttle pop, for you bubble gum chewers; and a little rump-punting rock, for all you metal machine masochists. The contestants will be judged on their vocal and instrumental abilities, and the lucky winners of the preliminaries, happening from 1 until 5 pm, and 7 pm to 11 pm, will move on to the finals. Last year, in case you were wondering, the proceeds went to the local cystic fibrosis foundation,’ and will be funneled in a simil?r fashion this year. So, find a warm cuddly friend for this, Saturday and make a day of iti or drop in for either of the two jamming sessions - how far back can five bucks throw ya?

Armenian leads ’ production

’

The Music Faculty of W.L.U. presented the musical drama “Susannah” Friday night and proved that operas don’t have to be performed in Italian or with elaborate sets to be entertaining. Written by American composer Carlisle Floyd, the opera involves a young girl named Susannah Polk who lives with her brother Sam in New Hope Valley, Tennessee. As the plot was drawn from -American folklore, the songs had an appropriate “Tennessee twang”. Donna-Ellen Trifunovich, whose controlled voice superbly mastered the difficult passages of combined lyrical aria and halting recitative, played Susannah. Her voice was clear and held extremely high notes without quavering. Gregory Lorentz on the other hand, as Sam, tended to “gloss over” the rough language of these mountina people and therefore his character was at times somewhat unconvincing. suspected of ’ Susannah becomes immorality ‘by the elders of the New Hope church and is shunned by the entire community. Her association with Bat McLean becomes twisted in the hands of her accusers and she is forced to confess her ‘cc * sins”. Dennis Giesbrecht portrayed “Bat McLean” and was hilarious as a bumbling hick who is more afriad of telling the truth than to lie about Susannah. Perhaps the .most arresting performance came from Dale Mieske who acted the part of Olin Blitch, the itinerant preacher of New Hope Valley. With arms spread wide, he was mesmerizing as he delivered his sermon to the hymn-singing congregation.

This scene was the most moving of the entire opera. The tension built as the hymn got louder and the preacher brought the congregation to a feverish pitch. Floyd’s “Susannah” is strongly reminscent of musical creations of another American composer, Aaron Copland. It involves ordinary people with traditional American music. The only instruments used were a piano (played by Leslie D’Ath) and a “fiddle?: (played by Robin Chadwick). Occasionally the voices paled beside the foot stamping and hand clapping, but this only aided in emphasizing the energy of the scene. With Raffi Armenian as the musical director, and Thomas Schweitzer as the stage director, it was a performance that the W.L.U. Music Faculty should be proud of. Lauri Huth

Shakespeare under glass? . ’ This doesn’t refer to a little-known culinary delight ranking with other ,epicurean dishes such as pheasant under glass. Instead, it refers to a sad state of the art in Shakespearean theatre as presented by the Actor’s Trunk Company, at the Theatre of the Arts, February 24th. Henry K. Martin re-wrote The Tornin; of the Shrew (for high school students), Sue

Martin produced it, I and director Norbert Kondracki put it under the glass cover already mentioned. And from there, the work lost all taste. This afternoon performance was attended by grade seven and eight students from Centennial School who had earlier listened to a summary of the play. The only contact with the audience was achieved by Frederick Williamson, who, in his dual role as Shakespeare and Grumio, occasionally attempted to lift the glass to present his ideas about what was happening. He comrriented; for example, on the manner in which The Master, Shakespeare, brought about the action of his play by creating this character or that personna. I felt sorry for any .student, who, given the freedom of an afternoon at the theatre, had to listen to a “Coles Notes” type summary entailing an explanation of (when Shakes peare wrote it) a lively and colourfully comic look at men, women and marriage. In spite of lines lost in the laughter, or not heard because of volume problems, the wellcast crew presented a pretty picture onstage, no doubt helped by rich costumes. If the glass had been removed, the audience given credit for intelligence, discernment and enthusiasm, and if...(and this is a large IF) The Taming of the Shrew had been performed to delight and entertain rather than to present one of Shakespeare’s plays so that “children” could understand it, then the Actor’s Trunk Co. may have been more successful. My advice for them is to leave the pablum at home for the baby, and present a meaty classic worthy of the most numerous sector of the critical audience, which (as every advertiser of toys, candy bars, and sugar cereals knows) is the ten-to-sixteen year old TV viewer.

CULU B-ball ChamdonshipsZone In the late sixties and early seventies the zone became so effective in the NBA and ABA that is was banned. The advent of the shot clock and the time limitations it imposes (24 or 30 sets), made the zone the most effective way to stop any offense. In International and College play (CIAU included) the zone is still allowed and used by just about every team. From the l-2-2 to the l-3-1, the zone has developed many variations. Each has its particular strengths and weaknesses. All zones are weak at the “seams’, the areas between

Play the players. The zone is \.not a static alignment. An important concept to remember when discussing this is ‘cheating’: that is, the leeway to move out of the set zone pattern in anticipation of a play. To every zone there is an offensive counter, and another, defensive transition, and so on... The following “chalkboard” illustrations and photos will show some basic zones and their analyses. they Although may know a number of defenses, any squad can

only perform one or two effectively. In fact the type of zone used depends on the players’ talent arid the coach’s preference. Because of the thirtysecond shot clock, it takes 8 or 9 seconds to get down court, (and since no one wants to take a shot in the last 5 seconds), that leaves 15 seconds to put it in. This doesn’t leave any time for the “patient” approach and probe of a defense. Most offences will attack any defence out of the same , alignment. Attackers will be seeing these and other zones at the CIAU’s. Teams like

This is a basic defensive zone that, nowadays, is used mainly in high school level games. Plus: it’s a good formation to fast-break out of and is easy to double-team or trap out of. Minus: it’s difficult to defend inside, which makes it very vulnerable. Can be beaten with a l-3-1 offense or with double low-posts.

As we enter into the last week before the &AUs many deciding games are still being played to determine just who will make their way to Waterloo to grapple for the Canadian championship. At this point Victoria and Calgary have yet to play off in the far west. Victoria emerges the favourite not only because they are the defending champs of that division but because they have home’ advantage in Friday’s

March

game. There is an outside chance of Calgary’s winning since they have beaten Victoria twice this season, although both of those wins have been in Calgary. In the GPAC (Praiare league) all four teams remain eligible. The winner will be decided this weekend by a tournament, but Brandon is the favourite team. Quebec will send either Concordia or Three Rivers. Ofthose two, Concordia is favoured to advance. The Atlantic division is also active this weekend pitting Acadia against UNB and St. Francis Xavier against St. Mary’s. The winners of those two matches will playoff Saturday, with Acadia favoured to emerge. The Wild Card team also remains to be decided. It will be chosen by the CIAU/Top Ten Committee based on the t earn’s performance all season as well as ranking, tournament play, the firiishing spot in its league, and the strength of that league. Likely to show up is any team who has been a favourite, but who is upset in this weekend’s events. Victoria, Brandon, Concordia or Acadia will be likely contenders for that spot if upset. Failing an upset of this sort, St. Francis, Calgary, Brandon, St. Mary’s or Manitoba will likely appear. Although Gtielph does have a remote chance of being chosen, it is highly unlikely that three OUAA teams

boards.

would ever appear at the Canadian championships. As for Warrior action that weekend, things remain up in the air. They will not know, of course, who they are slotted against until the wild card is drawn. “Since we don’t know our opponent we have to prepare on the basis of possibly playing every opponent ,” says Coach McCrae. They can’t set traps just yet he says but their logistics would be aided greatly if they were to meet a team they have played before such as Acadia, St. Francis or St. Mary’s. * “This will be a wild weekend where anything goes,” Coach McCrae explained. “Everyone has been beaten,” and this leaves the tournament open to the pos,sibility pf many surprises. Acadia, Victoria and York are favoured to emerge winners but all rankers are just as likely to run away with the title. Although Ontarians would be happy to see the title fall to York their performance will depend greatly on the play of Bo Pellick. Pellick, one of the t‘eam’s key men, is recovering from a broken wrist. He injured a small floating bone in his hand, an injury that takes a long time to fully heal; York’s luck will have to run high. Undoubtedly, regardless of who arrives, fine players will b!? seen as well as some of the best basketball action we may see for many years. to come. Virginia Butler

This is the “standard” zone used by most teams. Plus: guarantees a good rebound triangle (usually-between three big people). Gives strength in the middle and effective against a single-post opponent. Allows for a good fast break. Minus: perimeter shooting on the wings can wreak havoc. Weak against a ~-3-1 combination and short jump shots inside. Has wide seams.

plus: puts the defenders close to the defensive Minus; gives the perimeter shot away.

Donovan was definitely the hero of the day with her relay performance as she managed to hold on to the relay lead and also clinch the University Championships for Waterloo by 13 seconds over the defending champions from Guelph.

One minute later’, in 12th place, was Pete Laurich, who was still suffering from the flu, and 3 seconds later was Warrior Captain Kevin Jones (13th), in what was by far his best placing in the past 3 championships. UW’s other competitors were Mare Adams and Ross Pilkey who finished in 33rd and 34th place. Following the individual race, Waterloo was comfortably in 2nd place, and eager to win the relay -medals that had eluded them the previous year.
