resurfaces
by don button Imprint staff On Thursday, May 26th, Enginews appeard on campus and caused quite a stir among those students who had thought that the EngSoc monthly publication had been thrown off campus. In fact, Enginews was not thrown off campus, and its recent offcampus publication was due more to political pressure than anything else. By the end of the Winter’83 term, Enginews had drawn much criticism for the racist and sexist material contained therein. Their typesetters and printers declared that they would not continue to serve Enginews in view of the paper’s continued bent towards this type of material - despite being warned by these same people in November, 1982 that if Enginews did not cease publishing such material, the typesetting and printing services would be discontinued. The University of Waterloo Ethics Committee and Board of Governors soon entered the fray due to the objections raised by the Fernenginews edition of Enginews. Usually hesitant to enter into such matters, the Board of Governors decided not to investigate or take action because both EngSoc ‘A’ and EngSoc ‘B’ assured the Board that they would neither support Enginews nor provide special or monetary support for its publication. According to U W Vice-President-Academic, Dr. Tom Brzustowski, the latest publication of Enginews does not violate that agreement since, “as far as I am concerned, both EngSoc ‘A’ and ‘B’ have lived up to their part of the agreement.” Brzustowski went on to say that in his opinion, no-action will be taken by the University and he does not anticipate that the Board of Governors will change their minds if Enginews should continue to publish relatively inoffensive material as they did in the latest edition. “By the same token,” he explained, “Should it start approaching its previous standards, the University would have to investigate possible steps to prevent its circulation on campus.” Although both‘A’streamand‘B’streamEngineeringSocieties have complied with the Board of Governor’sdecision, according to Dr. Brzustowski, the Federation of students has not. ‘Appearing on the back page of the sixteen-page Enginektls, was half a page of Federation of Students ads for Bent promotions a direct contradiction of the Board’s wishes that there be no_ University support for Enginews. Bent representatives Gary Stewart and Chuck Williams explain that, “We had a credit for half a page with Enginebzls left over from last term, so we used it up.” As previous advertisers in Enginews, they had not been informed about the Board of Governors’ decision, even though part of the Board’s decision included a sub-section decreeing that all Enginews advertisers be informed of the Board’s decision. According to Jack Brown, Secretary of the University of Waterloo Secretariat, the notices to Engineb*s advertisers have not yet been sent out, although he anticipates that they will be shortly. Brown declined the offer to comment on why the advertisers had not yet been notified.

Stewart and Williams went on to say that “Fed support, or non-support has nothing to do withus. Ad approvalcomesfrom Tom Allison.” Although a member of the Board of Governors, and a prospective member of its Executive Committee, Federation of Students President, Tom Allison, had no knowledge of the Board’s decision, but said that “the Federation of Students would continue to support EngineMls on a term to term, and somewhat an issue to issue, basis” in spite of the Board’s decision. Allison went on to say that “Forcing Enginews to publish offcampus and independent of EngSocisjust askingfor trouble. We (the Federation of Students and the Board of Governors) don’t differ in how we perceive the problem; we differ in how we perceive the solution. Maybe time will prove one of us right or wrong, and maybe not.” Allison had the opportunity to preview the latest edition of EnginehIs a week before its publication, and insists on doing the same for any future editions containing Fed ads. He stressed that he personally did not wish to see papers like Femenginews published anywhere, let alone on campus, but also said that, “If
No Adult Studies after end of Jurie Conrad Grebel College School of Adult Studies (SAS) will be disbanded as of June 30, 1983. Begun in 1970, the School of Adult Studies was designed to offer the resources of the College to the constituency through short courses, seminars and other educational events. Since 1976 the programme was directed by a committee which included representation from College faculty, the CGC Women’s Committee and the Inter-Mennonite Board of Congregational Resources. The Chairman was appointed from the constituency. The reasons for discontinuing SAS in its present form include the expanding involvement of the constituent conferences in providing educational experiences as necessary. Frequently SAS found itself competing with other events in the constituency. The SAS programme also no longer reflected the direct interests of the College. Increasingly. events and seminars were planned in isolation of College-_ programmes. This resulted in faculty no longer relating to SAS programmes and an unacceptable multiplicity of events being publicized by the College. The resulting overhead was considered unacceptable. Replacing the School of Adult Studies will be a Community Education Programme (CEP). The emphasis will be to sponsor events which draw on the teaching resources of the College community and focus on the strengths and interests of College faculty.-In this way the programme will reflect Conrad Grebel College’s primary educational commitments. The CEP will be administered by a Reference Committee composed of the Academic Dean, the Chaplain, the chair-
off-campus
persons of- Music Department, Institute of Anabaptist Mennonite Studiesand Institute of Peace and Conflict Studies. This committee will be chaired by Nelson Scheifele, Assistant to the President, whose responsibilities include community relations and publicity. The Reference Committee will co-ordinate and approve all community and/ or constituency related on-campus and off campus educational events, lectures or courses sponsored by the College. This will allow improved coordination of the promotion of all College events to theconstituencyand prevent multiple mailings going to churches within a brief period of time. The programme format will include on and off campus weekend workshops/seminars, lectures for selected groups and extended short courses of four to six sessions. There will be a specific emphasis to offer a variety of educational opportunities in geographical areas where there is a concentrated Mennonite population. The ‘School For Ministers held each winter will become the responsibility of the Inter-Mennonite Pastoral Leadership Training Board. In many ways the programme will appear the same. The primary difference will be-that the planning, co-ordination and implementation of community education is done by the College. “We are not discounting adult education programming but our plans are to shape our service in a new way,” says Ralph Lebold, President of Conrad Grebel College. A mailing explaining the new programme in greater detail and outlining a full programme will go to churches in June.
‘- Thursday, May 26, 800 p.m. 2 Q. --o Featuring the CFNY . VIDEO ROAD SHOW @e 4 they maintain the standards of the last issue, I forsee no problems in the future. I’m quite encouraged by it.” Brzustowski, on the other hand, was not as encouraged. In addition to being “quite surprised and disappointed to see Fed ads in it (the latest Enginews)“, he is “disappointed that Engineufs continues to project an image of the University of Waterloo engineers that shouldn’t be the primary image presented, in view of all the great things engineers and EngSoc accomplish.” Neither EngSoc nor Enginews representatives chose to comment on the issue, however, both AllisonandBrzustowskiexpect EngineIts will continue to publish. According to Allison, the Federation ot Students will continue to support Enginews, as long as he thinks it is inoffensive. According to Brzustowski, no University support of the publication will be allowed. Although the entire Eniinews issue has long lost its interest to most University of Waterloo students, nothing has been settled, and the present situation has the potential to raise even more problems than the previous EngSoc-Enginews affiliation. Time will only tell whether or not Enginetils will maintain its inoffensive standards, whether the University will continue with its hands-off policy, and whether the Federation of Students will continue to support an off-campus, ‘black-listed’ publication.
Psychologist develops a new reading theory A University of Waterloo psychologist has developed a new theory to explain why some people are better readers than others. Dr. Meredyth Daneman is interested in how we understand and remember information as we read - also known as reading comprehension. Daneman says there are two factors which affect reading comprehension: 1) differences in the text, and 2) differences in the processing abilities of the reader. Daneman’s research focuses on individual differences in the processing abilities of readers. She attributes many reading comprehension problems to a reader’s inefficient use of“shortterm memory” or “working memory” as she prefers to call it. Normally people speak of short-term memory when they refer to a person’sability to retain bits of information for short periods of time - for example, a telephone number while dialing. But Daneman feels working memory handles ‘another equally important function, and she has devised a test to prove it. She says working memory is not only responsible for retaining information for a short period of time, but also for processing information. Therefore, one’s ability to store and remember information depends upon how much of that limited capacity is being used for processing information. Problem readers may be so inefficient at processing information, they have less capacity left over to hold information in their working memories to use for comprehension tasks. Daneman says past tests for evaluating working memory have been inadequate. Instead of testing people’s ability to both process and store information, they only tested people’s ability to retain a series of digits or
words. These tests were designed to indicate how many short-term memory slots an individual had because it was thought that everyone had a different number. Daneman’s theory is that individuals don’t differ in the number of short-term memory storage slots they possess; rather, it is their processing efficiency that determines how much capacity is left over for short-term storage. For this reason, a test of working memory capacity should evaluate both processing and’storage functions. She has developed a working memory test called the Reading Span Test in which volunteers are asked to read groups of unrelated sentences out loud. They start with groups of two sentences and may work up to as many as five. Once a group of sentences has been read, the volunteer is asked to recall the last word in each sentence. The idea is that since the reader must process the sentence by reading it out loud, those who use the minimum number of working memory space for processing, will be able to handle more sentences and temporarily store more final words. Daneman says people with poor reading comprehension can only recall at most two or three final words; even the best don’t get past four or five at a time. It’s not an intelligence test but an indicator as to what makes some people better readers than others. The results she has been getting correlate highly with performance on a variety of traditional reading comprehension tests, indicating her test is valid. Although Daneman feels her research is at a very basic level, her theory and the test she has developed to evaluate it, may help to unlock the mysteries of reading activity and some day serve to equip people with betterreadingskills.

A new course on social justice will be offered this summer by the Institute for Studiesin Theological Renewalat the University of St. Jerome’s College in Waterloo. “The Just Society”, a three-week, full credit course, will meet Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., starting July 4th and continuing daily through July 22nd. The course will provide a multi-disciplinary approach to the Roman Catholic and Protestant Churches’involvement in issues of poverty, unemployment and prejudice, as well as their reaction to socialism and capitalism, their social activities in Latin America, and their attitudes toward women. “Most people are unaware of the Christian Church’s social teachings,” says Dr. Doug Letson, Director of the Institute. “This is certainly the case in the Roman Catholic community. The public response to the recent Canadian Catholic Bishops Statement, Ethical Reflections on the Economic Crisis, makes that very clear. The Bishops are merely demonstrating that the heart of Vatican II is its social orientation.” “The Just Society” has attracted lecturers from a variety of disciplines - sociology, theology, peace and conflict studies,

Over the last decade, the Palestinian people have gained great notoriety in the world, due to a general misunderstanding of their heritage: Nowhere is this more true than in North America. In recognition of this, and with theview that Palestinian aspirations need to be clearly understood, students from the University of Waterloo have recently organized the Palestinian Heritage. The stated aim of the Palestinian Heritage is to promote greater understanding and awareness of the Palestinian heritage and identity. It is not a Palestinian association. In fact, its membership comprises students representing several religious The group is recognized by the and ethnic backgrounds.

The institute for Studies in Theological Renewal is in its second operation. Last summer it offered a highly successful course on the religious experience of the young. “Enrolment will again be limited to 75 people. We are close to that number now, so interested individuals should register early,” says Letson. “The Just Society” has a value of one full universitycredit,and the tuition fee is $242.00. The format for each day will consist of a formal lecture followed by acoffee break, a group discussion and a question and answer session. Participants will be required to keep a weekly journal, and write a position paper on one of the issues discussed during the course.

The organizers felt that it would be good to kick off the term with a big hit. And what a hit it was! Over 150 people attended the screening and nearly packed the Biology lecture hall. The group is planning further features through the term. They will be posting notices in the Campus Events section of the Imprint as well as in the Gazette and on billboards around campus. Everyone is welcome to attend and there is no admission charge. Events are generally on Wednesdays at 12:30 p.m. The location will be announced as the event is advertised.
be harmful
Wearing sun glasses may actually be harmful to your eyes, according to.University of Waterloo optometry professor, Dr. A. P. (Tony) Cullen, whose research activities include cornea1 pathophysiology and optical radiation hazards. Normally, when we move about in strong sunlight without sun glasses on, we squint a bit. This may be a little uncomfortable, or even tiring, but it keeps the sun’s rays fromgettinginto our eyes. When we put on our sun glasses, the light doesn’t appear to be as bright any more so our eyes open more widely, as do our pupils. “The trouble with this is, it permits more ultraviolet radiation to get into the eye,” Dr. Cullen says. “Ultraviolet radiation is llot in the visible spectrum - we can’t see it so it doesn’t make us squint - but research shows it can have definite adverse effects on certain parts of the eye. Yet many of the sun glasses we gee in stores will not filter out solar ultraviolet rays to any appreciable extent.” He says recent research indicates ultraviolet rays may well lead to cataracts or other vision problems later in life. Cataracts can be produced very quickly and easily in small animals, simply

to eyes
by exposing them to ultraviolet rays. “The wavebands that have been used to produce these cataracts are no different from the wavebands of ultraviolet radiation from the sun,” Dr. Cullen says. “Ultraviolet radiation right up to the visible part of the spectrum (the violet-blue color at the outside edge of the rainbow) may produce damage to ocular tissues.” Dr. Cullen says these laboratory studies on animals are further supported by epidemio’lbgical studies - by statisticians examining data on people who live in high sunshine environments as compared with those who live in environments with less sunny climates; the former are more apt to experience cataracts. Dr. Cullen began studying ultraviolet radiation in connection with the United States government’s manned space program. NASA scientists feared ultraviolet radiation from the sun would not be screened out in space to the extent it is at the earth’s surface and astronauts on space walks might therefore suffer eye damage. “These studies were completed about 10 years ago and at thattime we thought we had the answers to all the questions,” he says. “Since then it has been recognized the subject is considerably more complex than we at first thought. We now know, for instance, that many drugs or chemicals may alter your sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation, so you may well be more sensitive if you are taking a certain drug.” Even diet, he says, can make one more or less sensitive to it. Parsnips, for instance, heighten the skin’s sensitivity. “We have to have visible light of course,” headmits. “Without it - without the sun or light bulbs - we couldn’t see at all. And it is a fact that virtually any type of radiation will damage the eye if you have excessive amounts of it. If one stares into the sun long enough the back of the eye will be burned.” It is the ultraviolet that causes him particular concern, however. Radiation at the other (red) end of the spectrum (infrared radiation), appears to do little damage to the eyes, at normal environmental levels. He therefore advocates sun glass wearers to be particularly careful to choose the kind that will filter out ultraviolet rays. Expert advice from optometrists should prove helpful.

Allison’s
by Cathy McBride File “K” Imprint staff Disc II Federation president Tom Allison is already starting to fulfil1 his campaign promises. Allison says he sees two things coming out of the election. He feels he has a clear mandate to proceed with new pub facilities. He also believes “Students would like to see their role within the student movement clarified.” It will take a referendum to build the new pub facilities, tentatively named Federation Hall, however, the preparatory work has already begun. According to Allison, “The greatest likelihood is that it would be attached to South Campus Hall.” North Campus was rejetted because it wouldn’t attract the daily business necessary to make the facility pay for itself. Allison favoured a location between the Campus Centre and Biology 2, however, this location is slated for Biology 3 should such a building be necessary. Federation Hall will be capable of holding concerts and banquets as well as serving as a normal pub facility. As for the student movement, Allison thinks that council has to decide how it wishes to proceed. He says he won’t try to force
his own beliefs on council. In fact, he doesn’t know what his beliefs are. He went to the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS) conference in Saskatoon hoping to form an opinion, however, “I’m still torn between believing in a national student movement and believing that CFS can’t work the way it is set up now.” The Federation is busy in other areas as well. The bus pass negotiated last year with Kitchener Transit is now waiting to be approved by city council. Some Federation by-laws still need to be re-written “to clear up inconsistencies that have surfaced” due to last year’s restructuring. Also, Allison says that the present health insuranceagreement is currently beingrenegotiated. Hesays that premiums willgo up; the only question is by how much. Finally, Allison hopes that in a month the Federation will be able to introduce a Student Residence Insurance Program. Basically, this program will be home insurance for students that covers theft, damage and personal liability. The insurance will last for twelve months and accommodate changes of address within that period. Lloyd’s of London is handling the program and Allison says “it’s almost ready to go now.”

The age of aluminum automobiles is dawning, and Toyota Motor Co.‘s recent announcement of a $23 million plant to be built in British Columbia, devoted entirely to the manufacturing of aluminum wheels, is a case in point. A University of Waterloo professor has been researching aluminum car parts since 1969. Dr. Alan Plumtree, a mechanical engineer specializing in analyzing construction materials, says aluminum is ideal because it is both light and strong. Since some car makers (mostly foreign) are already using iluminum, the rest of the North American industry must move quickly to remain competitive. Plumtree is collaborating with the industry through auto parts manufacturers and suppliers. He became involved in 1969, when he was approached by the industry to help search for materials which are lighter, cheaper or easier to produce than the ones they were using (mostly steel). Since then, Plumtree has been using his lab at the university to test metal samples and car parts for strength and durability. The testing is a two-stage process. First, Plumtree does a fatigue test on an actual car component. He simulates load conditions conditions the component would be su bjected to if it was part of a working car. At some time during the test, the component will break. Plumtree is trying to find out what actually happens to the metal, as it slowly weakens and snaps. The second phase of his research involves looking at a thin slice of the weakened metal with an electron microscope. The

specimen is scanned by an electron beam, which reveals thecharacteristics oft he grains of material in the aluminum. From this, Plumtree can determine what element in the aluminum is the weakest link, and gives up first. He is then able to suggest to manufacturers what to do to eliminate the weak link, or how to make it stronger. Another important aspect of his work involves predicting how long a part will last (life prediction techniques).
WOMEN’S
“In the past, engineers have been extremely conservative,” says Plumtree. “They tended to allow themselves large safety margins, which meant designs were stronger than needed. Now, with rising costs and energy shortages, it has become important to determine the life expectancy much more accurately. Manu-, facturers want to know exactly when they can expect a component to fail, and they’ll decide on the safety margin they want to add.” Both aspects of his research complement each other because knowing what makes a metal specimen weak also tells him how long he can expect it to last. The auto manufacturers benefit becausetheycanproducecars that are just as safe, but at tremendous savings. These savings are then passed on tot he consumer, who really wins twice because his car is not only less expensive to buy, it’s also less expensive to run.

Correspondence courses to test ~elecq2ferencing The University of Waterloo, which has the largest university credit correspondence pro- -_ gram in Canada, will undertake an audio teleconferencing trial in some of its correspondence courses this fall. The experiment will offer students in two or three courses teleconferencing tutorials. Probably two such tutorials will be held for each course, says Dr. Jack Gray, director of U W’s Qffice of Part-time Studies and Continuing Education. The UW experiment will use audio teleconferencing only - no video. Students will get together for classes, sitting around a table with microphones so they can ask questions of the professor. Dr. Gray expects about 50 students in up to 10 locations across Ontario will be linked with a U W professor at one time.

Time
for schools
In 1967, the provincial Ministry of Education abolished Grade 13 departmental exams. High schools were allowed to develop and evaluate their own tests, and popular opinion was that this would lead to fluctuations in high school quality across the province. The government, of course, disagreed with these suggestions, trusting “the integrity of school board memberg to preserve the integrity of education in Ontario.” Obviously, the government was wrong. Universities, most notably Waterloo and Toronto, have devised their own system for evaluating applicants. Straight mark comparisons were not working, as a student with a mark from one high school was not necessarily at the same level as a student from another high School with the same mark. High schools in Ontario are now indexed, in order that the university can adjust an applicant’s mark to a provincial equivalent. This system is fine for a university. There would seem to be nothing wrong with a system that protects the academic integrity of those post-secondary institutions concerned with such things. Unfortunately, society cannot operate with such a system, and unfortunately society needs one. High school as a stepping stone to university is one thing, but that is not the principle of education in Ontario. The public education system is supposed to guarantee every Ontario resident a certain level of education should they desire it. Everybody has the right to that level. That is why it is free. Varying standards at Ontario high schools denies that right. Unlike post-secondary education, high school students have little or no choice as to where they can go to school. One simply attends the high school closest to where one’s parents happen to be living at the time. If that high school is sub-standard, those students receive a sub-standard education and live with it the rest of their life - unless they, or their parents, can afford to subsidize supplementary or alternate education.
to revamp
That necessary subsidization des<roys the premise that we all have the right to a certain level of education. We all have the right to it, but we can only get it if it is readily available or if we have the resources. Not only are our rights denied, but it is simply not fair. Why should I have to go through life at a disadvantage because I happened to be living in an area with a substandard high school? Indexing by universities does not solve the problem, but it certainly suggests strongly that the problem does exist. Maybe it is time to look at re-evaluating provincial exams. They would not provide a direct solution, but would achieve the desired results indirectly. Provincial exams allow the Ministry of Education to evaluate the effectiveness of high school programs. Comparison with scores, with margin for social and economic factors, will allow the Ministry to bring pressure to bear on those not upholding the principles of the public education system in Ontario. The cost of re-instituting such a system would be high, however its upkeep would be minimal. Computerized answer forms and bulk mailings would keep costs down and the margin of error limited. ” We’ll probably never see provincial exams again, though, but wouldn’t it be nice if we all had the opportunity to achieve the same level of education that the government thinks we are getting? I applaud a system that guarantees a certain level of education, but if that is what we say we are going to do - let’s do it. don button Editor’s note: Since the writing of the above editorial early in the week, Imprint learned that the Alberta Government has announced compulsory province-wideexams in four mandatory basic subjects. Government officials explained that the announcement came as a result of public pressure to remedy high school inequalities acres’s the province. Provincial exams were abolished in Alberta in 197 1.

Federation Renters Insurance Package Within two months, the Federation of Stu&%ts will have a special Student Renters Insurance Policy available to fee paying members that will cover both personal property and person& liability. While at school, some students are covered by their parents insurance, but many are forced to pay between $50.00 and $100.00 to insure their personal belongings. The package, soon to be offered through the Federation office, willcosteachstudent $35.00. As well as being considerably less expensive than coriventional insurance, the one year plan will be transferable from one location to another far the convenience of Co-op students. Applications should be available in the Federation office by mid July.
Federation Hall The site has been chosen, a building committee struck, architects are being interviewed, and a referendum has been planned: all for the new Federation building that will house a new large pub facility. Federation Hall, as it is being called until a more suitable name can be chosen, will be located across from the Faculty Club between Ring Road, the Residence Road and Columbia St. A possible six sites were narrowed down to two,andadetailed study was commissioned, and then investigated, by a local architect. The other possible location was beside South Campus Hall, but the chosen site was deemed more appropriate under almost all of the criteria. A Building Committee was stuck to oversee the planning and building of the facility. The Committee consists of Federation President, Tom Allison; Federation Vice-President Operations 2nd Finance, Jim Pytyck; Civil Engineering student Gord Wiseman; Director of Physical Planning, Ernie Lappin; and Director of Food Services Bob Mudie. An Advisory Committee was also set up by Students’ Council, and it will be open to all members of the University community. This Committee will meet regularly to advise the Federation President and receive regular progress reports from members of the Building Committee. For the last two weeks, Tom Allisonand Jim Pytyck have been meeting with four different architects. Adecision on the architect
who will follow through with the project will be made by Wednesday, June 7th. After the architect has been chosen, two referenda will be run, asking the students whether they are willing to raise their Federation fee to finance the new facility. The first referendum will be held in mid-July for the summer Co-op students, and the second referendum will take place in early September for the rest of the student body. The reasoning behind two referenda is to allow all students input into the new facilities. Provided the referenda are passed by more than a 50 per cent vote in favour, construction of Federation Hall should begin in Late October. Th$ new facility could possibly be open and ready for business for the first day of the Spring term 1984.

To the editor: Like all as.pects of the eighties, I well imagine life as a student has become harder than ever. Of course, there are the usual problems; curriculum pressures; loneliness in a new city and community; disappointment in courses; separation from friends and family and so on. Unfortunately, more difficulties are presented to the students of today - especially with our present economic situation. The high unemployment rate even for graduates has become alarming and students nolonger have the security of a rosy future guaranteed by university degrees. I am sure at times it must be overwhelming. With this in mind I offer you information on our services.

Inflation SCOOPS
affects prices
To the editor File “E”, Disc III The price went up to 80 cents for a two-scoop icecreamconeat SCOOPS early in February. This letter is to inform the students of the reason for this price increase. At the old price of 60 cents per cone, and using current ice cream prices and sales figures, the stand would expect an operating loss of $330.00 weekly. As the size of each individual cone varies, it can be estimated that on any given day we should expect thirty (30) cones per tub. Based on sales of two regular price flavours per one Supreme flavour, this results in an expected cost for the ice cream cone of 64 cents (including tax) each. Add on 15.6 cents for labour per cone and we have a realistic price of 80 cents per cone. This charge reflects the actual cost of supplies and it is not intended to help recover operating losses at SCOOPS. Remember, even at 80 cents for a two-scoop cone, you still get your money’s worthat SCOOPS. (Retail icecreamstorescharge over $1.20 for less than this amount.) SCOOPS is now open for the Spring term, Monday to Friday, lo:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Wednesday nights from 8:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. for Cinema Gratis. Sharon Broughton, Manager
freedom
To the editor: The growing support for the so-called “peace” movement must be disturbing to any rational person who values human freedom, individual rights, and the Western society that allows these to exist to a relatively high degree. ,The name of this movement calling for nucleardisarmament is inaccurate: first, it implies that anyone wishing to have their government use t he necessary means to protect them from foreign invaders is seeking war. Secondly, and of great importance, this movement will not bring about the desired “peace”, but will merely leave the West more vulnerable to attack from the enemy. This is an enemy who has a clearly stated and practised expansionist policy. The fundamental mistake in the thinking of the disarmament supporters is the lack of recognition that the Soviets are indeed our enemies. Their philosophy and resulting political system are immoral and evil. Leaders of such a system can never be trusted, especially when they are seeking to destroy all individual freedom in the world. The U W Peace Society’s commentary in the March 25 issue, is typical of the growing evasion ofthisfact. Ms. Louck’s naivegoal of “meaningful negotiations” and “peaceful coexistence” with the Soviet Union is irrational and dangerous to herselfand to her fellow men. Although such a situation may be desirable, it is not possible and cannot be made possible by wishing it so. Nuclear devastation is second only to a world dictatorship in horrifying possibilities for the human race. However, our only hope for avoiding both is to be fully prepared (ie, fully armed) to defend ourselves. The irrationality of today’s peace movement is getting out of control; the pattern is shockingly similar to the peace movement of pre- and early World War 11 when it permitted Hitler to get as far as he did. Strong voices must focus public attention on the facts of nuclear defense and on the true motivations ofthe Soviet Union. People who value their freedom, and wish to protect it, must speak out now, before our elected political leaders follow a course of action that could result in our losing this element essential to human life; because once freedom is lost, it will be too late for words.

letter draws fir&
explains flaws
To the editor: As a lover of life and of peace and quiet I feel that it is my privilege and responsibility to respond to a letter printed in the last issue of Imprint. Theletterin reference wasfroma Mr. Heath and I wish to outline a few flaws in the reasoning. He states firstly that the conflict between our two superpowers is one of ideas. Thisfallsflat on its face in view of reality. The two ideas I assume referred to are those of democracy and Marxism. Anyone who truly believes that these two ideas really exist in the minds of those responsible for the present conflict should look more carefully at the behaviour of each party. In case one hasn’t noticed there has been a considerable degree of repression around the world caused not only by the Soviet Union by also by the United States. The present conflict in Central America is the most recent if not starkest example of this hypocrisy. Vietnam, Iran, Cuba, the list goes

on. Do the people of these nations feel that their American friends are fighting for their rights and freedoms? One would hardly argue so. The second error in reasoning I wish to outline is that of the responsibility of the Armed Forces. Certainly they are meant to protect our lives and freedom. Is this the reality? Whose freedom are they truly protecting? I find it very difficult to feel protected by a group of armed men who are trained to wipe out civilian villages and to render jungles inio bleak deserts. How is one able to trust our guardians when there is a history of error in judgement that pre-dates most of us? I think that our armed forces deserve serious scrutiny as well as leaders who are properly educated with a broader view that goes beyond the notion of good buy/ bad guy. The third error is one of omission. Failed to be mentioned was the fact that both our guardians and foes possess weapons ’ that pose a very serious threat to the existence of mankind. This is not only the Cruise or the MX but also the tremendous overkill that has been present in arsenals for years. Between chemical, biological and nuclear warfare we could do ourselves in several times over. Both superpowers have been allowed to become too strong. Both are prime examples that power corrupts. These dangerous weapons must be removed from their hands as wellasfrom the face of theearth. That, my friend, is the bottom line. Lyle Robinson
the only solution
To the editor: This letter is written in response to Donald Heath’s statements in his letter to the editor in Imprint last week (May 20,1983). He bases his belief that the West requires nuclear weapons on the premise that the “United States is the only country founded on a base of individual rights and freedom. Thus people who wish to live their own lives are threatened by the very existence of the Soviet Union.” These statements are both absurd and myopic. It is exactly this type of mentality that leads to the perpetuation of / the arms race. Mr. Heath fails to realize that we in the West have taken freedom to an extreme. Our obsession with competition and profit causes enormous human suffering. People in the West may have more individual freedom than those in the Soviet Union, but we have carried freedom too far. Freedom has come to mean the right to freely exploit human and natural resources while passing costs on in an inequitable manner. Freedom must be balanced with responsibility and a social consciousness. The capitalist system instills and rationalizes the abdication of
r/
personal and social responsibility through the pursuit of economic freedom. Artificial human “needs” are created and promoted. Employment unrelated to meaningful human development is also a product of our economic system. These criticisms of the West are not to be taken as an endorsement of the political and economic system found in the Soviet Union. They are simply meant to illustrate that our system is far from perfect despite Mr. Heath’s inferences. How can we make any objective comparisons to begin with when we have been conditioned to believe that the Western economic system is better and have little or no direct experience with what happens in the Soviet Union or China? What is required, is a tolerance of others in an effort to understand, not more nuclear arms. If a nuclear war ever happens, will anyone be left to debate whether the Soviet Union or United States had the better political or economic system. Will it really matter who pushes the button first? Disarmament is the only solution. Kevin O’Reilly School of Urban and Regional Planning
Peace less dangerous To the editor: In response to Donald Heath and his “Defence Better than Disarmament” letter, I agree with your basic premise that the Peace Movement presents a naive ideology. However, the argument you present in favour of “defense” displays at least the same degree of naivete. You state that the conflict between the U.S. and Soviet Union is based on ideas. I suggest that the real conflict is ofpower. Both sides would like to pretend it is a political ideology they are fighting to maintain. However, theiractivities on the world scene seem surprisingly similar. You point out that the Soviet Unionis totally opposed to individual rights and freedom. To exemplify this you refer to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Let me remind you of the presence of the U.S. in Central America. I beg you to explain how the U.S. is “bejter”. Both sides of the defence/disarmament struggle are in response to fear. Those on the side of“defence”are responding to a very human fear; that of the unknown. I suspect that the U.S. government preys on this fear. Those on the side of “disarmament” are responding to a fear of catastrophe.. I am very prone to both these fears. But, in response to the former, let me point out that however beautiful the capitalist ideology can be made to sound (“founded on a base of individual rights and freedom. . .” ) the communist ideology can be made to sound just as beautiful. My tendency is towards a little bit of both. In response to my fear of catastrophe, I perceive that neither myself nor anyone else will have the ability to make any choices what-so-ever. In summary, both defence and disarmament present naive ideologies. For this reason, I find it hard to be part of either side. If forced to choose between the two, however, the side of“peace” seems a little less dangerous perspective. Jon Adamson HKLS Editor’s note: While Imprint encourages our readers to air their views through letters to theeditor, wecaution that we are not prepared to donate Forum space entirely to the issue of world peace and nuclear disarmament. As space is at a premium in the smaller Imprint editions of the summer, we are forced to screen letters to the editor more carefully. On the issue of world peace and nuclear disarmament, we will be glad to print any new viewpoints, however repetitions of ideas and statements will have to give way to other issues and opinions.

Old Joe w
by Leo McNeit Imprint staff Long _ recognized for its rich and ~ colourful history, Kitchener has a museum that reflects that history. Not the traditional stuffy, inert museum, the Joseph Schneider Haus is a beehive of activity that mixes artifact viewing with viewer participation. The JoseDh SC_hneider Haus (bejo w) houses a living history of Waterloo county. Still functioning woodstoves heat it; toys children played with are on display; and the back garden is still productive.
It is a strange mix of display and working model, but as a means of sampling the history of the area, it is second to none. Sent to look over the place, the writer became involved (as most tour members invariably do) in the working reality of another lifetime. Schneider Haus, located at 466

The tour started in the basement where fresh fruit and vegetables used to be and still are sometimes stored. Meat was smoked, iced, or salted and kept in this area of the haus. Another interesting item shown was the manner by which food was stored in pots. On top of them was what looked like masking tape. But what was it?
Ordinary paper that was soaked in egg whites to make it stick to surfaces. Once food was stored in this manner, even the hardiest bac_teria could not pull’ off a break and enter of the premises. Although it was too early for lunch, the kitchen was next stop for the small tour group, and we were provided with a good look at some of the utensils used during the late 1800s. On display were a number of tin pots, cast iron pans, pottery and china dishes and a small cookstove with heat racks. Homemade soap produced from animal fat mixed with lye was also in plentiful supply. Just off the kitchen is located the sitzschtub room, an early version of a modern living room. Here, the nicest looking and probably most expensive furniture and accessories were located. Many of the pieces were manufactured by cabinet makers in other localities, according to the tour guide. Adjacent to the sitzschtub was the parent’s bedroom. Besides a double bed, an infant’s cradle and dressers were located here, A pipe brought heat into the room from the kitchen stove. Aquilting bee was recently staged in the large upstairs area that was sometimes used as a guest bedroom.A quilt frame used to stretch material for cotton batting stuffing was also located here. Clothing was made in this room from such materials as cotton, wool, linen, and animal hides. With very little industry this became necessary. Weaving was usually done in a specialized shop somewhere else in the village. If clothing required dye to be used, onion skins or walnut pieces helped meet the need, since chemical dyes were not developed until the 1860s. Compare such activities to the manner by which clothing is made nowadays! The boys’ room was unlike any modern counterpart. Two beds, with dressers and some homemade toys were displayed. Those toys were made by the boys themselves to help teach them woodworking. In the girls’ roomthemainoccupants

After the senior Josephdied in 1880, a son, Samuel, inherited the property. Hisfamilystayed until 1912, when the haus was sold to outside interests, however, Joseph Snyder, a nephew of Samuel, purchased the hausin 1928to bring it back in the family. At this time, the building was duplexed, asecondfrontdoorandstaircase was built, and the interior was partitioned. The haus remained in the family hands until 1975, when the Waterloo Regional Heritage Foundation acquired the property. The fact that one family kept the haus for such a long time is unique in this area.
Displays
and Events
A collection of early nineteenth century pottery from southern Ontario is on display at the haus until June 25th. Joseph Wagner, Johnand Daniel Jacobi, Burton Curtis, William Eby, Adam Bierenstihl, and Jacob Bock are some of the earlier artisans whose work is part of the show. A number of anonymous lenders as well as works from the Doon Pioneer Village, Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery, Guelph Civic Mus,eum, and the Wellington County Museum are also represented. John Wine, a student counsellor at UW since 1967, and longtime pottery and furniture antique collector, is guest curator for the duration of the displays. Wine also taught in the human relations department until that program was ended at the university five or six years ago. Education programs are offered by staff to help area students learn some local history. Participation or a “handson program ” is stressed most often even for the youngest students. The ideas supplement classroom instruction for the youngest students. The ideas supplement classroom instruction for specific grade levels.
The seven such programsin placefor 1982/83 include: The Schneider Family, grades 2 and 3; Food for Plants, grades 4 and 5; Pioneer Life - Day Programme, grades 5 and 6; Pioneer Life - Textile Production; both are for grades 5 and 6; Architecture Studyand Survival to Prosperity both for grades 7 and 8; and Schneider Haus -Woodside is for grades 8 to 10. The latter program enables the student to look at the differences in the living standards of the two houses, or a look at howtechnologychanged over a 40 or 50 year period early in the century. On Canada Day, “Fleece fabric to process wool” will be featured. For the first time, sheep will be sheared at the Hausgrounds. And the public isinvited to assist in any part of the entire operation. Day camps will feature nineteenth century children’s activities to help keep the Haus authentic. Senior citizens can tour the Haus free of charge during the month of June. One condition the curator asks is that an old recipe be brought along. Nineteenth century Germanic art with related folk art will be the feature of Gardens of Waterloo County later this summer. A schnitzing bee (fruit drying) is also planned. This is a labour intensive earlier method of preserving fruit, especially apples. Apple cutting for drying will be shown. The Galleryusuallycontainsexhibits of local artifacts at regular intervals throughout the year. Hours of operation of the Haus are: May 24 to Labour Day. 70 a.m. to 5p.m. daily Labour Day to May 24 70 a.m. to 5p.m., Wed. to Sat. 7 to 5p.m. Sundays Admission is low: Adults, $1.25; Students, 75 cents; Children aged 5 to 12 years, 50 cents; and Children under five get in free. Family rates are $3.25 and for students attending with a class, the cost is s 1 .OO/student.

Modern by Terri Preece Imprint staff Modern English After the Snow Polygram Records After the Snow is Modern English’s second album and it is nothing short of superb. The more you hear it, the more you’re hooked. I know I am. Just recently released domestically, the album is available at a very low price for a limited first run only. Modern English is a band of five ‘Brits who not only work together, but live together, in London, England. As their title suggests their music is modern, and very English. For a band as successful as Modern English now is, I was rather shocked to learn that with the exception of drummer Richard Brown, no other band member had any previous musical experience. Shocked? Don’t be. Sheer determination and inherent musical talent has resulted in a masterful second LP. Their first recording, released in 1978, wasa homemade single entitled Drowning Man, which was followed by their self-produced debut album, Mesh and Lace. Vocalist Robbie Grey admits that during the recording the group “didn’t have a clue how to use a studio”, perhaps explaining their not-so-

English successful first musical attempts. But Modern English is a band that exhibits perseverance. Although talented, determination and sheer hard work had as much to do with the success of After the Snow. Modern English is also a band who is thorough. Their recent album is a myriad of different styles, textures, and rhythms - and lyrics aren’t sacrificed either. Their lyrics are beautifully written, often sentimental, and full of rich imagery. Some have compared their debut effort Mesh and Lace with the likes of Joy Division, Wire, and Echo and the Bunnymen. All very commendable bands in their own right. Modern English may bear some resemblance to these bands on their latest LP, but their new sound is more optimistic than their initial dreary sound. Born in the punk explosion in England, Modern English sports an element of raucousness in their music - an influence that never overpowers and never becomes a key factor in their music. The band was also influenced by the more dreamy sounds of the post-punk psychedelic era, thus giving Modern English their own distinctive sound. Their music is very melodious, yet also twists and turns; minor keys unexpectedlyjuxtaposed against crooning vocals and lyrical guitar work - a combination that works

superbly for this band. The-Boston Globe’s opinion that, “Modern English equals modern fun. They pull you in a number of different directions and leave you with a warm glow”, accurately describes After the Snow. True to their psychedelic past, ping-pong stereo effects and meandering background organ are a distinct component to their sound; giving their music an ethereal and surrealistic feel at times. Carry Me Down, one of the mellower tunes on the album, features the sound of a flute; another of Modern English’s pleasant surprises. The combination of a singing flute, the lyrical picking of a guitar, and Grey’s sultry vocals produce one of the strongest cuts on the album. Lyrics, one of those musical elements often overlooked in today’s music, are an important element in Modern English’s music. I Melt With You, the tune that perhaps began it all for the band, is a love song. Upbeat tempo disguises sentimental lyrics, like the following excerpt: I saw the world crashing all around your face/never really knowing it was czlu~ays mesh and lace/I’ll stop the world and melt with you/You’ve seen the difference and it’s getting better all the time/There’s nothing you and I won’t do/I’ll stop the world and melt with you.
Life in the Gladhouse, a song originally released as a 12 inch single in the U.K., is another powerful tune on thealbum. The lyrics are strong in imagery; evoking a rather melancholy feel. The driving rhythm of drums in this song make it one of the more danceable tunes on the album, relentless through to the very end. Modern English is wary of comparisons with ‘new music’ bands. They consider themselves to be warmer and more sensitive than most of today’s bands. The British Trouser Press was impressed with Modern English, remembering that, “After two albums and a bunch of singles, most groups would have their identity down dead as a doornail. Modern English doesn’t, which’ makes them intriguing.- Regardless of style, their songs continue to probe feelings and relationships sensitively.” Of their upcoming show at the Waterloo Motor Inn on June 16th, Bent programmer Gary Stewart commented that “Modern English is clearly at the forefront of the new music scene in Canada, and we’re very pleased to have secured for them this special performance .” Modern English seems destined for great acclaim, and the show promises to be one not to miss. Advance tickets are now on saleat the Fed office, CC 235.

When will America finally realize that the Woodstock days of peace, love and megaconcerts is long behind US. Steve (Apple Computer) Wozniak swears he’ll never bankroll another major show. Wozniak claims he will lose $10 million on the $18 million adventure. $1.5 million went to Van Halen, $1.5 million to Bowie, $500,000 to the Clash (plus an additional $38,000 the Clash demanded be given to a boys club or they wouldn’t go on). It sure doesn’t seem like a profitable way to run a show. With artists like Van Halen’s David Lee Roth saying things like “let’s show these cops what violence is. . . let’s show these cops what fun is”, it’s no wonder injuries and charge3 were up four times that of last year’s show. Seems the Van Halen Hedonists showed up with an entourage of 130 in 22 stretched limos equipped with bars, T.V. and spandex. Who cares? David Bowie has changed the guitarist in his backing band for his Serious Moonlight world tour, which opened in Brussels last week. Guitar whiz Stevie Ray Vaughan has been enjoying success with Double Trouble, his own band in the USA. Bowie wouldn’t increase
New Bowie David Bowie Let’s Dance Capitol - by John Jongerius From music to film to theatre, David Bowie is truly an entertainer. When he sings Let’s Dance, it’s very difficult not tomove your feet. Although not advertised as such, the 12 inch 45 RPM version of Let’s Dance (7 ‘/z minutes) and its flip side, Cat People (five minutes) is a limited edition record. The 12 in. 45 RPM versions of these two songs are exactly the same as the ones on the 33 l/3 LP. Let’s Dance is the title of the 12 inch single, the album, and the first 7 inch single from the album. The name of the song saysit all. Bowie’s voice is full of energy and control throughout the song and the album, making it a must for Bowie and dance fans. Cat People is a different version than the one from the movie soundtrack of the same name. The new version is more uptempo with some soaring guitar riffs played by Stevie Vaughn. The movie soundtrack version is
Vaughan’s wages for the tour and that put an end to the association. Watch for the Canadian tour by Double Trouble, and an album entitled, Texas Flood on Epic in early July. 1’11 be watching you or is that “We’ll be watching you “? Seems the Police’s Sting will be starring in Frank Herbert’s SciFi Classic, Dune. The $120 million film project should be released by late summer. The new Police album entitled Synchronicityis“our best effort to date” claims a humble Gordon Summer. Heard that before. Most successful bands in their position would either release a live album, call it a day or do the decent thing and die. Electra-pop fans will be saddened to hear that Yaz, or Yazoo, have split up. Sure, take the money and run. Their first album, Upstairs at Eric’s, has been enjoying tremendous success on the dance floor. Life in the Gladhouse is never dull, as you will see June 16th.’ Modern English will be upstairs at the Waterloo Inn - guaranteed to be a great show. The British act is hot off the Roxy Music tour, and is presently doing solo gigs in the New York area. See you June 16th. , Tickets are on sale in the Federation office.
album longer, slower and has a grey, dark feeling to it - in line with the theme of the movie. Both versions are very good, and both are different. Other songs that stand out for me are Modern Love, Shake It and China Girl (co-written by Iggy Pop and appears on his The Idiot album). The album got Amy’s budgie singing and chirping, making it a must for man and bird! The album was produced by Bowie and Nile Rodgers (guitarist, writer, and producer of Chic, a group with many dance hits). I’m not going to write a song by song analysis of the entire album. I find that boring to write and worse to read. You pay your money and you take your chances. Bowie had two videos promoting the album, Let’s Dance and China Girl, look for them on New Music and other TV music programmes. Bowie will be touring for six months this year; his first tour in almost five years. He should be at Maple Leaf Gardens (a terrible place to dance) inseptember. The show will bea ticket scalper’s delight. This album will probably be the most successful of his nineteen years of recording and so far rates as one of the best in J 1983.

~A new collection ,of Canadian short stories has arrived in the book stores. This is not unique in itself because the short story is quickly becoming Canada’s genre; however this collection is special because it was commissioned for Robert Weaver’s CBC radio show “Anthology”. The radio program has only published two collections: Ten for Wednesday Night (1961) and the current one. In his introduction, Weaver states: “It’s an indication of the health of the short story in Canada at the beginning of the 1980’s that two or three times as many writers might have been approached for short stories if our broadcast time and budgets had been able to accommodate all of them.“It cannot be denied that the Canadian short story is alive, well and propagating. The first story is Margaret Atwood’s TheSin Eater. The narrator is a former patient of Joseph, the therapist who specialized in treating suicidals. Joseph’s accidental death and funeral allow the narrator to find new meaning in the Welsh legend of the Sin Eater. W. P. Kinsella’s story The Night Manny Mota Tied the Record is fantastical, but disturbing. While at a baseball game, the narrator is approached by Mr. Revers who offers to allow him to replace his life with that of Thurman Munson, a famous baseball player who died in an accident the night before. Mr. Revere has the power to turn time back and give the narrator an opportunity to lay down his life for another, Munson. The absurdness of the narrator’s circumstances lead him to an uncomfortable decision. Something Happened Here by Normal Levine deals with death in the context of war. The narrator is visiting France and is struck by the sight at Dieppe: “The sun was warm, the sea calm. And when I next looked at the cliffs the opening had disappeared. All that was there was the white-grey stone sticking up. I thought of gravestones . . .” He contrasts his visit as a tourist with the visits of those who came and died as soldiers.
After this patriotic story about death, the theme comes up again in the setting of a seamy murder in The Case of Cassandra Dop by Joyce Marshall. Mary Fleming, the narrator who is the manager of the Academic ’ Proficiency Clinic and Cassandra’s employer, must identify Cassandra’s body at the morgue. When the policeman tells her about her employee’s sadistic lover and the cause of death, she can hardly believe it: “You see,

The move to Victoria Park represents an effort to get more members of the KitchenerWaterloo community involved in Theatresports, which up until now has been almost entirely a University of Waterloo student organization. In most cities (Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver), participants tend to be members of the community; Waterloo is the only location where interest has been centered around a University. The June 7th game will be the playoffs for the series of league games that was begun last term. In addition, there will be novice matches involving new U of W players and some young teams made up 6f senior public school students. These young teams are being formed as part of a summer project sponsored by Parks and Recreation to give children and young adults exposure to techniques of improvisation. Teams for June 7th include the top-ranked “Here to Infirmary” and “The Zippermen”, as well as second-rankers “Senior Partners” and
BRIDES
“Kate’s Kids”. The outcome is hard to predict since second-rank teams managed to trounce first-rank teams at times during the original set of league games (standing is based on number of games won). A turnaround at this late stage is still possible, so supporters of all four teams are likely to be there rooting for their players. The junior matches are also likely to be strong games, if Toronto experience is any indication. Teams of young players have traditionally done well against older, more experienced performers; it remains to be seen whether this is purely a Toronto phenomenon. Show time for the summer games will continue to be 8 p.m., though it is recommended:that audiences show up earlier since the n&& location is harder to find. Victoria Park is located three blocks west of King Street; a number 7 bus down King to the Canada Trust building, thena three block walk east reaches the park itself; signs will indicate which building is the pavillion. Also planned for later this summer are intercity matches; in recent months, Waterloo has easily defeated teams from Toronto, Hamilton and Brantford. An inter-city league has been discussed, and the possibility of a national championship (involving teams from across Canada) being held in Toronto looks good. Such a national championship would be held in Toronto early in the Fall term, and would be organized by Theatresports Toronto. There is every indication that Waterloo teams wouldat least hold their own against most other cities, since U of W teams have defeated players from across southern Ontario.

HELIX COMING
officer, she was shy. . .“Marshall contrasts the naive life of Miss Academic Proficiency with hidden hard-core problems of those around her. The West Door by Leo Simpson is one of the saddest stories in the collection, not becauseit deals with the deaths of old people, but because it illustrates the dehumanizing conditions of rest. homes, whose owners have their priorities upside down. The bravery of
the Nailer Rest Home victim is poignant and endearing. Degrees is a unique story because it takes plae in Africa and illustrates the domestic attitudes of neo-colonialism. Audrey Thomas is not the first to explore this facet of “Canadian life”, but her story enhances the existing body of colonial literature. The climax of Degrees occurs when Trevor, the son of a white administrator, dies. The reaction to his death is cathartic for those away from home. The theme of death does not shroud Small Wonders because of the unique approach each author employs. The rest of the stories are more diverse in theme. Three deal with the relations between parents and child, and the last three are more-or-less oddballs. Coming Home by Kent Thompson is about a father happily recalling his daughter’s youth on his way home from work. Upon his arrival hime his wife announces that his daughter has been raped. The father’s idealistic visions of his daughter are crushed. Jane Rule’s story The Sandwich Generation is similar in that a mother must cope with her unmarried daughter’s announcement of her pregnancy. At the same time, this woman must cope with her recent widowhood and being pressured by her parents to meet new men. This is a fascinating story about three generations, told by the sandwich generation. South, by Clark Blaise is told by a boy growing up in Florida. Looking back, he realizes that he has withheld admiration for his mother because of a mistaken interpretation of his father. Change of Scenery by Jack Hodgins, and Causation by Helen Weinzweig are about two The contrast because unusual couples. Hodgins’ story ends positively, while Weinzweig’s conclusion is destructive for the pair. Both, however, have equally eccentric characters and plot lines. Alden Nowlan’s The Year of the Revolution is a spoof on university activists, and is a mustread for all those involved in university politics and administration! Small Wonders, with five female and six male authors, some of Canada’s best, is a balanced, but varied collection. Although “small”, these stories are wonder-full!

Have,a heart, and keep aitfit In the summer of 1980, Bruce Moran, then Fitness Co-ordinator of Health Services’ Campus Health Promotion, prepared a six-part series (which ran in Imprint from May 16th to July 25th) to help readers develop their own exercise program. Here’s the whole series, claiming its position as apart of the Best of Imprint Sports. Many people realize that there is a need for exercise, but are confused by the questions of how much and what type of exercise is best. This series of article? will provide some of the answers, giving the necessary information to design a sound, personally-tailored exercise program. However, before embarking on the road to better health, it is important to recognize the values of becoming physically fit through regular exercise. Physical fitness means different things to different people. It is a very individualistic concept and is highly dependent on each person’s unique makeup. Nevertheless, it is generally agreed that a functional level of fitness allows a person to perform daily tasks without undue fatigue, have energy left over for leisure time activities and respond to emergency or unexpected stressful situations. Unfortunately, many Canadians do not meet this criteria of fitness. With machines supplying the power for most jobs, the necessity of walking, running, lifting and climbing have been virtually eliminated. The average Canadian performs little active leisure time activity to compensate for this automated life style. For example, the findings of a recent study on recreational activities in Canada showed that only 20 per cent of the populationengaged in some form of physical exercise, leaving 80 per cent completely inactive. Sedentary living is primarily responsible for 40 to 50 per cent of the adult population being overweight and having fitness levels which can be classified as fair to low. Engaging in regular vigorous exercise can retard the physical deterioration associated with our lifestyle and bring about the following benefits: 1. Many medical authorities believe active individuals are less likely than sedentary people to experience a heart attack or other forms of cardigvascular disease. 2. Physical activity can contribute to effective weight reduction or weight maintenance. 3. Physical activity may alleviate symptoms of our sedentary lifestyle such as low back pain and chronic fatigue. The human body is the only machine that falls apart from lack of use; it responds well to vigorous exercise; through inactivity, it becomes rusty. Warmups and Cooldowns Your exycise program consists of three different parts: the warmup, the exercise phase and the cooldown. If any of these components are neglected, you will not have a complete exercise program. The exercise phase should focus on the major components of fitness: flexibility, muscular strength and cardiovascular endurance. The body, like a car on a cold winter morning, must warm up before it goes into full gear. Warming up helps guard against sprains, strains and more cramps, importantly, heart irregularities. A muscle is stronger and more responsive when warmed, promoting a more appropriate ad.justment to exercise. Stretching and low intensity activities such as light jogging are the most commonly-used exercises for a warmup. Although the duration of the warmup is
\
dependent upon the intensity of the exercise phase and fitness level of the participant, usually ten to fifteen minutes is adequate. Following heavy exercise, a progressive cooldown is also important., During exercise a lot of blood is sent to the working muscles. The squeezin’g action of the working muscles pushes the blood through the one-way valves of the veins and back to the heart. If exercise is stopped suddenly, the squeezing action is gone and there will be no movement in the muscles to help circulate the blood back to the heart. The blood will then pool in the working muscles, thus depriving the brain, heart, and other vital organs of the much-needed oxygen. As a result, such symptons as nausea and dizziness and/or faintness may occur. By gradually decreasing physical exercise to easier levels, such as walking slowly after a jog, the light contractions of the working muscles will aid the return of blood to the heart. Through this “muscle these unpleasant symptoms can pump”, be avoided. A five to ten minute cooldown will usually be sufficient to recover from exercise. Flexibility Flexibility is defined as the range of possible motion in a joint or series of joints. The greater the range of motion of the joint, the greater the flexibility. Greater freedom of movement at each joint improves a person’s ability to function and makes movements more efficient. Muscle injury, low back pain and poor posture may be avoided by maintaining an adequate level of flexibility. Flexibility may be limited by the condition of the ligaments and connective tissue surrounding the joint. Joint structure and muscle extensibility may also limit the range of joint motion. Improvement in flexibility can occur at any age. Rapid improvements can be expected when younger due to the greater elasticity of the muscles and ligaments of the young. However, with sedentary living habits and inactivity leading to a decrease in range of motion, flexibility exercises become increasingly important with advancing age. Flexibility tends to be specific to par-, titular joints of the body. A person may have good flexibility in the hip area yet may have pobr shoulder flexibility. Therefore it is necessary to exercise all major muscle groups to ensure ove’rall flexibility. The type of stretching movement used in a flexibility program is very important. The commonly known methods of “ballistic” or “bounce stretching” should be discouraged due to the possibility of muscle injury. To protect itself, a muscle will contract when suddenly stretched. As a result, fast jerky movements cause the muscle which is being stretched to contract at the same time. This reduces the effectiveness of the stretching and often promotes muscle soreness. However, when a slow, “static” stretch is applied to the muscle, it encourages relaxation and ,allows the muscle to adapt to a new, stretched position. Much of the muscle soreness is prevented or alleviated
A successful
fitness program
requires
perseverance,
through this type of movement. When performing static stretching exercises, the flexed position should be held for at least eight to ten seconds. Strength Training For an exercise program to be complete, it must include some aspect of strength training. A strength training program provides extra energy which is needed to complete daily activities with relative ease, improve physical appearance and enhance performance in many difficult sporting activities. Strength is the maximum tension that a muscle can exert in a single contraction. Muscular strength and endurance is specific to the muscle group. An individual may display high levels of strength and endurance in the leg muscles, but may have relatively low levels in the arms. Therefore, in designing your program, you should be very careful in selecting exercises for the different ar&as you want to improve. Muscular strength I and endurance are closely related, as a stronger person is able to work longer at a specific task than a weaker person. However, both can workfor thesame time ifthe task is equally proportional to the level of strength. To improve strength and endurance the muscle must work against an applied external resistance. This type of “overload” on the muscles may be provided through isometrics, isokinetics, or weight training. In isometrics, muscular tension is developed without shortening the muscle involved. This is accomplished by pushing against immovable objects such as a doorway frame or against opposing limbs. When initially introduced, great strength gains were reported using isometrics. However, recent findings suggest that strength gains are limited to the specific joint angle at which the isometric force is being applied and that there is often an undesireable rise in blood pressure. Isokinetic devices allow the muscles to work against a resistance that permits movement at a preset fixed speed. This -enables the muscle to generate maximum tension throughout its entire range of motion. Used extensively by the sports medicine and physical rehabilitation disciplines, this method of training is not
will power,
and rewards,
feasible for many due to the expense. The most conventional method for improving strength is weight training. The individual may progressively add resistance as strength increases, thus providing feedback in regards to improvement. Strength gains are greatest when a heavy weight is used for six to eight repetitions. Muscular endurance may be improved by using a light weight for twelve to fifteen repetitions. In the beginning stages of your program start off slowly; doing too much at once provokes muscle stiffness and discouragement. Proper breathing is also very important; the basic rule is to exhale on exertion. If you are training to improve strength for a specificsport, train the muscles with exercises or movements as close as possible to those used in the i actual event. Although weight training provides an excellent means for developing and maintaining strength and endurance, it does little to aid weight reduction due to the relatively low caloric expenditure. With weight training being performed in short bursts of activity, it is also relatively ineffective in im.@-oving cardiovascular fitness. Aerobic Exercises Webster’s Dictionary defines the term aerobics as “living, active, or occurring in the presence of oxygen”. This is a very accurate definition of the type of exercise which is needed to improve cardiovascular fitness. Aerobic exercises are rhythmic, involve large muscle groups and require an adequate oxygen supply. Popular examples of aerobic exercise include brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling, rope skipping and crosscountry skiing. To produce or maintain a desirable level of cardiovascular fitness, the following three principles should be followed: 1. Aerobic exercise should be performed at least three times a week. As exercise tolerance increases so may the frequency; however, it is not necessary to exercise every day. Make sure that “days off’ are regularly scheduled to allow recovery.

In fact, all of the five 82/83 All-Canadians were chosen for the team. Andrea Blackwell and Lynn Polson will be familiar with assistant coach Hussey’s methods since they played for him at Bishop’s. Anna Pendergast, the only Maritimer on the team, had a great season for the Dalhousie Tigers. Tracy McAra played for Kathy Shields, the junior women’s national team coach at Victoria where the Vikettes had been ranked No. 1 for most of the 1983 season. Of the other six players, four played at the 1981 Universiade in Budapest. These were Carol Sealey and Wendy Verrecchia, both from Montreal, and Westerners Alison Lang and Heidi Bauer. Toni Kordic will be playing for her home fans in Edmonton during the FISU Games, while Beth Cochran is the youngest on the team at age 18. The twelve player roster for each tournament could also include Bev Smith and Janis Paskevich, who are sidelined at the present time due to injuries. Smith’s skills have made her an All-American twice - she has opted to play where scholarships and athletics go hand in hand. Paskevich earned the Player of the Year award from the CIAU for women’s basketball in 198 I. Entering the season, McCrae is very confident about his team’s chances in their three major summer competitions. “We expect that we can now win medals in any tournament. (Their experience) is even showing up in our scrimmages.” The squad has many pe&onal and team goals for this season, their main goal, of course, is to qualify for next year’s Olympic Games in Los Angel-es. With lots of hard work and a few breaks, they should make it.

by Donald Duench Imprint staff The Canadian national women’s basketball team, coached by UW’s Don McCrae, began this year’s journey to the World Championships with a training camp in Waterloo last week. At the camp, McCrae and assistant coach Wayne Hussey (coach of Bishop’s University Lady Gaiters, 82/83 CIAU champions) were able to look over twenty-four young hopefuls. Many of the players have had experience at the international level, making even the tryouts a great display of basketball action. The team has a full summer ahead of them. Exhibition games with teams from China(two games) and Yugoslavia precede their participation in the FISU Games in Eclmonton. Better known as Universiade ‘83, the FISU Games will involve 85 countries in ten sports from July first to eleventh, and is second only to the Olympics in terms of amateur prestige. Also, the team will be challenging at the world championships in Brazil during late July, and the Pan-Am games in the middle of August in Venezuela. Four players selected to the national squad were with the team when it took the bronze medal at the 1979 Universiade in Mexico. The four are lead by Carol Turney-Loos, who was the CIAU’s Player of the Year in women’s basketball at Victoria in 1980. Others giving the team valuable international experience a,re Sylvia Sweeny from Montreal, Ottawa’s Debbie Huband, and Candy Lohr. Lohr took the Brock Badgers to the OWIAA title in 1983 by scoring 22.3 points per me, and was named an All-Canadian.

Exercise is made a lot easier if there is an experience of success and enjoyment. In order to maximize the “fun” potential of exercise, several different techniques may be used: 1. Pick an aerobic activity you enjoy. Jogging has been a popular activity of the recent fitness boom; but if jogging isn’t your thing, don’t do it. Instead, choose an activity that you can see yourself doing on an on-going basis. 2. Establish a workload that is not too strenuous. Exercise should be a long term commitment, so don’t rush things. Doing too much, too soon will only cause muscle soreness and possibly discourage you from continuing with your program. Sensible exercise is the best formula for fitness. 3. Variety is the spice of life, so make sure you include it in your program. If you are cycling, walking or jogging, try as many different routes as possible. As long as you meet the prescribed frequency, intensity and duration, the different aerobic activities are pretty well equal, so give them all a try. 4. Establish the short and long term goals of your exercise program. For example, a long term goal may be to lose x number of pounds but it should be done slowly, dropping no more than one or two pounds a week. 5. Determine the best time ofdaytoexercise. You will find that exercise is habit-forming if a convenient time period is established. Positive reinforcement should be intimately tied to exercise, especially for the beginner. of providing this necessary One way feed back is through the use of a “log book” or “fitness diary”. This simply involves recording the date, the type, intensity, and duration of the exercise session. ‘This selfmonitoring device has proven to be an effective motivational tool for many individuals. Another motivational technique is to exercise with a buddy. Having to make commitments with others can help to ensure exercise on a regular schedule. Remember, exercise should be a lifetime affair. By making physical activity as convenient and enjoyable as possible, you will find it can become a part of your regular lifestyle.

Star Wars I (A New Hope) was. . . well. . . ‘great’ is such an overworked word. “A comic book adventure” seems to cover it wonderful action, minimum of plot, maximum visual impact. Star Wars II (Empire Strikes Back) was supposed to be heavier on plot (it was) and have the same visual impact - i.e. good special effects (it did) but the overall effect was disappointing - perhaps we had grown used to what Industrial Light and Magic could produce, and the plot couldn’t pull it out of the doldrums. ‘The doldrums’is a relative term it was a fine movie. And the special effects were great. But people seemed to want to see Star Wars I over again. On the other hand, this was the episode that raised all the questions, so it must have had something going for it. Those questions are answered (often surprisingly) in Return of the
Jedi with a plot that shares none of the faults of Star Wars II and with action that outclasses both previous movies. The action is generally better, though perhaps with the exceptions of Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford; the character development of Luke Skywalker is superb; and what they do with Darth Vader I would not have believed if I hadn’t seen it. I can’t say what. University students seem to be more affected than anyone else with the “I haven’t seen it yet - don’t tell me!” bug than anyone else. One can safely comment, however, on the following: Leia wears a sexy costume for once. (No secret - it was in all the papers). I suspect that that scene might provide material for an interesting sex survey because said costume is displayed against a background of the best aliens I have ever seen. This film abounds with aliens. You’ll love (in some cases, love to hate) thealiens. Children will love the aliens. Parents, aftera while, will hate the aliens because of the prices they’ll be sold at. The merchandising of Star Wars was starting to slow down - with this movie, it’ll get a boost like nothing imaginable.
The plot is entirely successful in what it setsout todo. More thanthat, as director Richard Marquand says in an interview with Maclean’s, “The concern was to make it relevant to a generation who had grown up with Star Wars films, changing from children to young adults.” The character this works best with is Skywalker he has matured wonderfully and Yoda’s teachings have stuck. The character it works least with is Leia. She says (alsoin the Maclean’s interview) “When I first played Princess Leia I was 19 and very precocious. Over seven years those edges have softened.” My own impression is, ‘that she’s grown less interesting, more stereotyped, and generally mushy. While it seems unlikely, if the trend continues ’ perhaps we’ll see a spaceborn “Waltons” with Leiaand Han Solo.. . they’ve turned sappy enough.

STUDENT INFORMATION
While it seems like a good idea to develop the plot along with the audience, this of course assumes necessary knowledge on the part of that audience. While this criticism doesn’t apply to the vast majority of the Star Wars audience, still, one needs to have seen the previous films - certainly, Star Wars II. I don’t remember any recapitulation at all. Which is good - they packed a lot into that movie. The Mandatory Chase Scene was really good - though I wouldn’t call it great. (Ithoughttheasteroid-dodging in Star Wars II was great.) However, audiences love it and there is a truly, deeply funny episode connected with the scenes involving the “speeders” - the machines used in chases. It won’t be revealing anything to say, ‘We Get To Meet The Emperor’.

Even more than Vader, he is evil clear through. His acting (Ian McDiarmid portrays him) is superb. He is easy to hate and fear. His makeup is wonderful - nothing particularly grotesque, just some strategic touches that add up to perfect. And perhaps the finest piece of the movie is the fight (we knew it was coming - it was destined) between Vader and Skywalker - it turns out to be something almost completely different from what I expected. The Star Wars movies have become something like a subculture to us - almost something more than that because of their broad base of appeal. Return of the Jedi can only broaden and deepen that appeal and, while one is glad that the loose ends are tied up at last, one is also sorry that this episode in the whole adventure is ended. But what an ending!
