A lack of proper advertising, illness within the MathSoc executive, and poor organization are being blamed as the reasons for the failure of a number of the week’s events.

Students registering at UW in the fall are going tobe faced with longer lineups than normally experienced if the postal strike is not over soon.

I guess the students last term had all the fun with Wine and Cheese Parties,” he says. Orientation events for September and a rewrite of the present MathSoc constitution, in use since 1976, are also amongst Welch’s major concerns. He feels that perhaps the biggest change he has created since taking office is the improved service offered to Math students who come into the MathSoc office. Better hours are kept, there are more staplers available, and people manning the office are more willing to interrupt their card games to speak with persons coming in, he says. Peter Sara&no
vote to $60,000
The results of the Grad Club expansion referendum point the way to a $60,000 7- $80,000 investment on the part of the Grad Club. 403 ballots were returned from the 1,063 eligible graduate voters.. Ballots had three statements: the first asking for agreement to the proposed expansion, the second asking that Grad Club fees remain compulsory, and the third asking for a Grad Club fee increase of $2.50 per term. 80% of the voters wanted the expansion yet only 68.s agreed to the increase in fees. 79% voted to keep fees compulsory. Planned renovations to the Grad Club include a small expansion to the Club on one side that would seat approximately 50 people, an upstairs patio for a further 75-100, changes to washrooms in ordertoaccommodate disabled, a wheelchair ramp at the front entrance, and possible alterations to the bar area. The $60,000 - $80,000 price tag for the undertaking is _ the estimate of Grad Club President Bill Halverson. He says that funding will come from a combinatipn of assets already held by the Grad Club, income derived from the $2.50 per term fee increase, and a loan from the _ University of Waterloo. Halversondeclined tocomment on the amount of the loan until negotiations were completed. As for a starting date on the construction Halverson had this to say: “We’re hoping to get it started this fall. Peter Saracino And I’d underline hoping.”
club charter were made by Simonis who stated that in the past some posters distributed by the CSA appeared printed in Chinese only, a practice that has recently been superceded. by the use of English and Chinese on all posters. Simonis said that it was expected the CSA would continue to do this. Simonis -also pointed out that of the students who withdraw their fees at the beginning of each term, a large number are Chinese. He felt it unfair of these ~ people to -withdraw their fees and continue to make use of such Fed sponsored endeavours as Scoops, The Campus Shop, and the Post Office. “It’s like biting the hand that feeds you”, Ram added. Simonis went on to say that Waterloo was the only campus in Canada that had refundable fees. Part of the reason so many Chinese withdraw their l
fees each term could,be a lack of communication between the student groups, he opined. When Man-Fan
asked why
the Federation did not make more money available to clubs and organizations, it was explained to him by Simonis and Ram that funding was
based on a group’s visibility on campus, the number of activities it held, and the ~ number of fee paying members in the group. Ram noted that in some instances ~organizations had received all of the money they had asked for and then never spent all of it. They said that funding will increase once groups begin to communicate more frequently with the Federation and start raising their profile on campus by holding a larger number of activities. The meeting ended \with Simonis expressing his wish that problems such as the ones discussed could be avoided if the CSA and all other clubs came to the Federation more often in the future rather than only coming in when they wanted money or when things went wrong.

No butts about it; 6Cobra’takshdonly to stereotypiitg
To the editor: I feel I must write this letter in support of Don -Heath, President of EngSoc A who has declared that Heather Robertson has blown the game of Cobra out of all proportion. Being a female grad student InEngineering, means that I must spend a lot of my time in the Engineering Buildings. In six years I have not: a) had by own buttocks bitten, (in fact if the game
Cobra is as rampant as Ms. Robertson states I may feel slighted by this omission). b) not seen or heard of anyone who has. This leads me to suspect that the game is not perhaps as prevalent as Ms. Robertson would suggest. In fact it is my opinion that the spreading of biased rumours such as these contributes more to thestereotype of the engineer than does their behaviour. Linda Duxbury Graduate Student (PhD.)

Rare exceptions to the class of entrepreneurs that look down their noses at the student population are the business people involved in the pizza and record sales industries. They understand the principles of good merchanting and see the potential income to be derived from the student market. They have come to see that students, given a little attention, can be enticed to part with their dollars. Where else does one see discount cards, free on campus delivery, giveaways, and special student promotions? This is to the benefit of all those involved. Others in the community would do well to learn from the pizza and record vendors. There is good money to be had in a fair treatment of the customer. Peter Saracino

“No Children, No Pets, No Students.” How often have you read that proclamation at the end of rentalads while lookingfora place to live next term? Have you also noticed that K-W Transit and the local theatres offer student discounts to all students except those at college and university? What are we anyway - cut rate citizens? Perhaps someone should publicize a few facts. Take for example the $50 paid each year to the City of Waterloo by the provincial government for each and every student enrolled full time at UW. This amounts to over $700,000 per annum as payment in lieu of taxes. Also consider that it is estimated that Uniwats students spend a whopping $22 million (UW figures) in the Waterloo Region each year. City fathers would do good to realize that post secondary students are an economic asset not to be sneered at and ignored. The sort of income generated by us most assuredly helps keep their paycheques cashable. If we all just packed up and left tomorrow how many fast food restaurants, bookstores, record stores, denim outlets, liquor stores, stereo retailers, specialty shops, and variety stores would find their cash flow dry up PDQ? And don’t forget all those apartment landlords and homeowners who are struggling to meet mortgage payments. Who pays their bills? The argument has been made by some that we students are more trouble than we are worth. Issues cited are vandalism, as in the case of damages done to rented dwellings, and the misnomered belief that students are overly frugal with their money. The aforementioned dollar figures should dispense with the latter statement and as for the former no one has yet

1 hprhtcommentis To the editor: Coral Andrews recently wrote a Comment article for you about the vicissitudes of waitressing. I’m not quite sure whether this article was meant seriously or was a weak attempt at humour. Since many of the statements are either factually incorrect or warped versions of reality I’m tempted to believe Ms. Andrews is involved in satire. However, on the off chance that she meant what she wrote I think I had best set the record straight. Mashed potatoes are often made from powder or flakes. When someone askes if they are real they are wondering if the restaurant provides reconstituted food. Halibut steak is an acceptable way of referring to a way of preparing that fish. In fact, it is not at all uncommon to hear people talk of fish as steak and I cannot understand Ms. Andrews’ concern over the nomenclature. Chips are not fries but rather are the product produced by Humpty Dumpty. In the US the term chips is always used in this fashion and it is not surprising to see people in Ontario making such a distinction. Along with criticizing the language people use Ms. Andrews also complains about people asking for information about menu items. She writes, “it’s all there in black and white.” Such a statement is palpably false. Restaurants rarely, if ever, fully describe their meals. I have ordered what was called a green salad and received a dish of spinach, lettuce, and bacon. The last was not listed on the menu and I would not have ordered it if it were. Very often restaurants provide such little unannounced “extras.” After all, when was the last time anyone ordered parsley? As for .the continued

Carnpudi Question
Computer simulation helps study emotions
Do you think the government back to their jobs? ’

d
.
A new tool for studying the expression of human emotion is being developed here at the university. Professor Maurice Constant of the Systems Design Department in Engineering heads a project to record human facial expressions and represent these expressions on a computer graphics terminal. He is developing a research tool to enable study of human emotion as signalled through the face. When a feeling, thought, or attitude is to be expressed on your face, the brain sends electrical signals to the facial muscles, causing the muscles to contract or relax to produce an expression. These signals, muscle potentials, will be recorded by electrodes adhered to the face. The waveforms observed will be collated and processed by computer. The information will then be presented as a stylized human face approximating the original expression. Non-verbal communication comprises a major percentage of human communication, and the face is the most expressive element of these non-verbal skills. The face is capable of thousands of expressions; it can reflect many states of mind and body. Once the project has been completed, Constant will proceed to develop a taxonomy or classification of facial expressions and their

related emotions. Many areas of research and education will also be able to use their tool. The art of reading and understanding people will be greatly enhanced. Research involving emotional responses will benefit from the new approach provided by this computer aid. One exciting possibility is the examination of the expressions of different
cultures to discover where the similarities and differences of unlike cultures lie. None of the work done by Constant’s team is new technology; it is the coalescence of computer graphics and muscle potential recordings into a sophisticated stylization of human facial expression that is the new development.

Survev shows wish toxex;tid PAC facilities t Undergraduates, grads, faculty and staff have all indicated they want the existing PAC (Physical Activites Complex) facilities at Waterloo to be extended indicates a recent Advisory Committee on Athletic Facilities survey.

resents 1,000 people. Approximately 19,000 cards were distributed on campus or sent by mail. A further 830 people voted to have a sports complex constructed on the North Campus and 300 of those polled chose to have both a North Campus complex and extensions to the PAC done. Pat Robertson, chairman of the Committee, has forwarded the results to a sub-committee that will now prepare a list of possible additions to the PAC. Their recommendations are expected by Robertson within a week. The final report of the Advisory Committee is to be submitted to the president of the university early in September. Peter Saracino

Factory outlets reasonably-priced While it’s great to have that barefoot feeling, it’s not always completely practical. However, the price of footwear need not be a deterrent to clothing your feet this term. So abundant are footwear factories in the Kitchener-Waterloo region, we feel the area should be known as the footwear capital of Canada. Perhaps the abundance of factories means nothing to the average shopper. However, for the bargain hunter, these factories mean a plethora of savings. There are several things to remember when dealing with these factory outlets. Firstly, most deal on a cash only basis. This means no cheques and no credit cards will be accepted. So take all the money that you will need. Secondly, factory outlets are usually self;serve concerns. If you need to know how a pair of shoes will fit with socks be sure to take your own. These are rarely provided. Thirdly, because these stores are self-serve, bargain hunters have to be prepared to wade through bins of gold lamais and other strange footwear before finding just what they want. The final note is that patience is the key to success at these factories. The Greb Factory Outlet at 5 Michael Street (off Victoria Street) in Kitchener (5783550) offers a wide variety of footwear. Everyone’s favourite hushpuppies can be found here along with sport shoes, skates and luggage. The prices may vary according to season. So, a good rule of thumb is to try to predict your footwear needs out of season. By doing this you will be ensured of both a better selection and (usually) better prices. The situation is similarat the Kaufman Shoe Factory Outlet (at River Road and Wellington Street in Kitchener, 576-1500). Shoes and boots are available at this outlet at very reasonable prices. However, the best buy here is found in the slipper department. Styles ranging from grandfather plaid to brown plush mules are available for as little as $3.00 a pair. The outlet also carries a good selection of mens
provide footwear boots at prices half of retail value. These two bargains in mind, make a trip to the Kaufman factory worth while.

Sumwat Theatre IIT - HatTrick - is a winner. This is to be expected, of course - it comes from a good family. Some background for the uninitiated: There is a group on campus who are . stinkingly brilliant when it comes to theatreThey seem to seek the coherently funny, rather than the inherent disarray of FASS productions, from which many of them sprung. In recent years, they have ’ gone so far as to produce dramatic works as well, in addition to humour. .-
There is a much greater degree of complelxity in Hat Trick than Sumwat has ever before attempted - and there is some really fine symbolism used as well. Hat Trick is divided into three sections, separated into scenes. The first scene takes place in 1939, the second in 1960; the third in 1981. All have the same location: the attic of Russell Lodge, a rustic resort in (presumably) Northern Ontario - certainly off the beaten track. In each scene there is always at least one

Inmany ways, Hat Trick is a synthesis of what the Sumwat people have tried before. Certainly the comedic element is there; but there is drama and tragedy and perhaps for the first time in a serious Sumwat play, they have achieved a work that produces what may be the lvhole purpose of serious drama - catharsis. -

~~$~;unds Swan ‘Ong The?e is an old saw about the whole being greater than the sum of its parts and if there was ever a band that could - both contradict and confirm this at the same time, it was the British band Rockpile. Along with guitarist Billy - Bremner and drummer Terry Williams, they worked ‘on each others’ albums and played with them on tour (Dave Edmunds and Rockpile or Nick Lowe and Rockpile, etc...). Edmunds’ and Lowe’s albums were the main focus -for the band. At the same time they created a sound which is easily identifiable, ‘be itgon an Edmunds’ or Lowe’s record. This culminated in last years Seconds .of Pleasure, the first album recorded by Messrs. Lowe, Edmunds. Bremner, an\d Williams under the name -Rockpile, an album ‘which proved that the bandas a whole was indeed greater than its component parts. All this is a roundabout way of introducing ttIie latest record from the Rockpilers, this one from Dave (“I don’t agree, Nick”) Edmunds, succinctly entitled Twangin.... It has that distinctive Rockpile sound heard on earlier collaborations; ,Lowe’s spare bass line; William’s solid but frenetic drumming (drumming as it should be!!) and the tandem of Edmunds and Bremner on guitar all create an energetic and highly listenable session. Two of the tracks are not done by Rockpile. The Race is On has Edmunds backed up by the Stray Cats, a rockabilly trio who have become a big draw in the U.K. The other Rockpile song is &by Let’s Pluy House, a song once
covered by Elvis (the original Elvis, for pity’s sake) andone of which Edmunds’ 1968 version is on the album. What makes Twangin... a unique individual effort rather than another Rockpile album is Edmunds’ selection and variety of songs. On the Seconds of Pleasure disc, all of the Rockpile songs are attributed, for the most part, to Nick Lowe. But on Twangin... there is only one Nick Lowe-Rockpile bong; I’m Only‘ Human, a typical Rockpile song with its understated humour and Lowe’s off-thewall lyrics: “I know they say I’m not a real good boyl,But tonight I’m a, little Lord Fauntleroy”. The rest of the cuts are covers which Edmunds- takes and makes .a11 his own. Edmunds’ choice also re-’ fleets his varied musical interests and ’ influences. The album shows how easily he can move from one type of music to the next and blend them together. Twangin... has an edge to it; a bite which is .mostly lacking in Lowe-influenced Rockpile pop. Something Happens and Cheap Talk, ,Putter and Jive exemplify how well Edmunds can do straightforward rock and roll: an affinity he displays in an anthem to white knuckle flyers everywhere, You’ll Ne-. ver Get ye Up (In One ‘of Those). . * The album’s only real single so far is a rendition of John Fogerty’s Almost Saturday Night, a song I find hard to get out of ,my head. -Edmunds also makes a successful foray into Rockabilty with The ‘Race is On; B type of music. which has enjoyed a Renaissance of sorts in Britain. In addition to the worst song on the album, a gamey version of a bland Ian Gomm popper called It’s Been So Long, Edmunds shames Bonnie Raitt’s recording of Three Time Loser and also does his Everly Brothers imitation (but a nice song anyway) .on a somewhat warped lament called I’m Gonnu Start) Living /-Again If It Kills Me. Singing the Blues and Baby Le?s Play House reflect the long relationship . between Edmunds and blues and, R&B. These two cuts contai; guitar work which lives UP to the album’s name and B&y Let’s Play, House has an intensity which seems lessened on the more recent cuts. The album was released in Britain early in the year and then Rockpile has since officially disbanded, primarily because of differences between Edmunds and Lowe on matters of/business and ‘. management. Whether this , will mean that Edmunds .and company will no ‘longer work on each other’s records is uncertain. Even though the vocals were somewhat lacking on TwangIn... (Edmunds and Lowe do sing well together) the record shows that Edmunds can do well on his ow’n If nothing else, he’ll make it on innovation alone; once Edmunds recorded an electric . guitar version of The Sabre Dance. As for Twangin..., it $1 continue to frequently find its way onto my turntable. If you like your Rockpile with a Idouble dose of Dave Eddnds, then-this album isa must. Doug

Some instinct that tells us our proper environment is ” the great veldts of Africa, where you could look off into the distance and see nothing for miles but miles. This is echoed in our western folklore and folksongs, and is a recognized part of almost every counter-culture. You can hear it in damn near every John Denver song. We hate our cities. Look at the kids in Britain this last weekrebelling against God (certainly not Margaret Thatcher) knows what, not for economic or racial reasonsjust for the sheer joy of destruction.

You’re in the Escape from New York world now; Manhattan Island has been surrounded by a fifty-foot tall, three-foot thick concrete wall patrolled by armed guards, helicopters, and sophisticated computer technology. The bridges have been mined, boats will be blown out of the water, and the assumption is that no one is ever going to get off that island. A sort of giant Devil’s Island or Alcatraz. New York Maximum Security Prison is where the worst offenders of the United States are dumbed - presumably the most hellish environment available. The condemned are offered the chance of cremation before they are forced to embark. The hero of the movie, “Snake” (Kurt Russell) doesn’t take that option.

Snake’s adventures in the city are very low-key,as is the rest of the movie. The man himself rarely speaks above a hoarse whisper,,and the only real chase scene is very tame indeed.

have never been adults, and are pushed into that state without real preparation by time. It is not a matter or readiness: Surprise! You’re a grownup! i In the face of this, many do not want to go on. They try to stand still, remain where they are, and yell for help. They attempt suicide, and often they succeed. But many of them are truly ambivalent about the idea of dying. (Giovacchini also points out that a person truly committed to dying will die; the book aims to help the others, the cryingout-for-help ones.) And so he wrote the last two chapters. While problems in dealing with adolesc-ence are deeply rooted and not to be quickly patched after reading a book, it is possible for the layman to detect the signs which lead to suicide. ‘We can see the loss of the final supporting post, and do something about it. “The first dictum to destroy is the *prevailing myth that anyone who talks about taking his life will not do SO.” And
“The ’ reasons adolescents take their own lives have their root in the strengths and the deficits incorporated during earliest childhood, in the nature of the society and the family in which they currently live, and in the conflicts and traumas they encounter in everyday life. In each case the person’s motivations, as well as the interplay of the previously mentioned factors, differ.” -
, The Urge to Die . Peter Giovaicchini, M.D. MacMillan Publishing
Since 1955, the suicide rate among teenagers in the United States has tripled. Adolescent suicide is so common that almost everyone knows someone who has at least attempted suicide, whether or not you are aware of the attempt. Why is this? Why is the business of becoming an adult so difficult in our society? So Giovacchini spends the first 160 pages looking at The reasons are complex, adolescence: its function, its and they form the basisof the book The Urge ‘to Die, by problems, the subworld it Peter Giovacchini .a creates, and where people often go wrong. He examines psychoanalyst at the University ,of Illinois who is wellthe manifestations of adolesknown for his work with ence, and sheds new light on the adolescents. . 60’s, a decade dominated I

there are two causes, most common: separation and disillusionment. It is not sufficient to sum these up in a short newspaper article; all I can suggest is that you get a copy of the book, if you are interested, and read it. Giovacchini’s style is clear and lucid, and ifsnappy prose sentences are ignored in the interest of clarity, there is no fault there. He illustrates liberally with case histories, showing why one adolescent committed suicide. He is trying to make adults understand. This book is intended for “concerned adults” but anybody interested in what he or she has gone through (or is going through) will appreciate it. It has some interesting perspectives on the world around us. One flaw: The appendix of Suicide Prevention and Crisis Intervention agencies is strictly for the United States. Maybe because we hold so tightly to our ideals during adolescence. , because we care, adolescence is the scene for tragedy. John McMullen

To the editor: The C.P.D.C.F.A.F.R.1.V.S is against the criminally obscene filth being shown in Canadian theatres! We are,against fascist theatre owners who show movies of men and women having sex. If these purveyors of fdth are

Your problem behind mountains of change is more obvious and perhaps merely because it is what more correctable than, say, the everyone else does, or it is just who is developing plain proper etiquette. To me, person a waitress should be tipped cancer from the materials that ONLY if the service was he/she uses at work. All you exceptional. A tip should be have to do is use the easy way looked upon as a reward for out and get drunk orstoned to forget about your work. How excellent service.

Nor am I saying that all waitresses are poor at and other complainers wouldn’t have a job. I myself their jobs. However, dealing rarely ept out, but I thank her directly with the public is part of their job. Waitresses are for her advice.

gravy, those of us who dine out regularly know that KW restaurants specialize in pouring gravy on everything. I could go on detailing and exploding more of Ms. Andrews’ complaints, but I think the point has been made. Restaurants do not clearly destribe the food they provide and a diner has the right to find out exactly what he will be eating. Further, a diner has the right to specify what he wishes *‘to receive and I cannot untier-‘stand why a waitress, would j complain about such exactness. Would she prefer that patrons return their meals complaining that they didn’t know about the gravy? As for Ms. Andrews’ comment that women are poor tippers I sugw~e~scmget gest that this is an experience personal to her.
