The Liberal Convention: a personal view I

by Rter Sharp

Introduction On February 29tR, 1984, Pierre Elliott Trudeau resigned a s the Prime Minister of Canada. The race to replace him did not truly begin, however, until March 16th. the day J o h n Turner announced his candidacy for .the leadership. Beginning in early April, the selection of convention delegates took place and New Liberals a t the University of Waterloo had the opportunity t o participate. April loth was the date for .UW's delegate selection meeting, and a lot had happened already. J o h n Turner's stumbles (if that is what they were) on the Manitoba bilingualism issue made him merely a divine being rather ,than God in the eyes of his fellow Liberals. And ever since his second-place finish Mr. Trudeau a t the '68 convention and his sudden resignation from the finance portfolio and Parliament in 1975. Mr. Turner had seemingly become a legend in his own time. The Canadian media had practically anoited him the next leader before he had even said a word, but by the time of our delegate selection meeting, there were doubts. Jean Chretien, the little guy from Shawinigan, almost 1 did not enter the leadership fray because he was betrayed by his many close friends who jumped on the Turner bandwagon. The careers of Andre Ouellet, Serge Joyal, and Francis Fox, has all been built by Mr. Chretien and now they and many others had deserted him. With this backdrop of tension and intrigue, the stage was set: There was n o question that Mr. Turner and Mr. Chretian would be the main contenders for the Liberal crown unless party president lona Campagnola decided to ener the race.

Convention: Friday, June 15th T e n s ~ o n swere runnlng hlgh o n t h ~ sday because the leadersh~pcand~dates'speeches were to be dehvered that evenlng The mood and the momentum of the conventton seemed t o belong t o Mr Chret~en.and ~fhegave another one of h ~ typ~cal s speeches, Saturday's ballottng would surely be a tense one. Whether the momentum was tang~bleor not, Mr Turner's people were worr~ed,and supporters hned up early before the speeches t o obtam the best seats posstble Mr Chret~en'ssupporters were not allowed through the doors, and, as you can lmaglne, a few fights almost broke out As ~t turned out, thls petttness was a d u m b exerclse on the part of both camps Mr Turner was to speak second last and Mr Chret~enlast The untverse d ~ not d unfold a s ~tshould have. however, and. uslng sports termmology, ~t was a n upset Mr Turner gave one of the mosi dynamlc speeches of hlr career and. from personal knowledge, he gamed many uncommttted delegates Mr Chret~en'sspeech was good, but ~t dragged In places and after the speeches were f m s h e d , momentum had defmtely swung to Mr Turner, and ~t c a r r ~ e don Into Saturday's voting

Convention: Thursday, June 14th Political conventions are always special due t o the unique drama that they create, but this one was even more special because it was the passing of an era. Whether we loved Mr. Trudeau o r hated him, things will not be the same without him. If J o h n Turner is elected prime minister, the nation's affairs will be handled more quietly and diplomatically, but if Progressive Conservative - P a r t y Leader, Brian Mulroney is elected, we will see a man stroke his ego for five years. - T o those in the arena Thursday night, trhe tribute t o Mr. Trudeau was a moving experience. From Mr. Trudeau's lament of the late U.S. Senator Robert Kennedy,to his flips offthe diving board, everyone in the arena appreciated what he meant t o Canada. This new positive feeling among delegates for the

prime minister could have been detrimental t o Mr. Turner's cause. for throughout the leadership campatgn, Mr. Turner had been trying t o back away from certaln aspects of the Trudeau record Even though Mr. Trudeau remained neutral In the campaign. there was a general feelmg that the mood of that evening helped p r o v ~ d e momentum for Mr. Chretien's bid for the party leadersh~p based on the record of the Trudeau years.

Convention: Saturdqy, June 16th

By Saturday qornlng, Mr Turner's vlctory seemed a foregone conclus~on,j u s t by the atmosphere in the conventlon centre created by the opposlng supporters After the first ballot, the conclusion was mathemat~cally ~nev~table If anythmg had gone wrong on that first ballot, Marc Lalonde was In the bullpen t o come t o the rescue; but, as~t was, Mr Lalonde remamed neutral s o that he could patch up any potent~alr ~ f between t Mr. Turner and Mr Chret~en Quebec delegates are unpredictable In both P C and Llberalfederal party leadershtp conventlons.

0V The Bovey Commission has come out with an invitation for Ontario Universities to play a game of fifty questions. The consequences for losing move it out of the game range. An underlying premise of the interim report is to ask what we will be able to do without in the future rather than to ask’what we need right now. The engineer will be asked what equipment he could do without, the dean which program he thinks is superfluour. If this siege mentality is allowed to come into being and we see future administrations looking to survival at all costs, then what will become of post-secondary education as we know it? The administrator of K-W hospital announced. that a summer shutdown of forty-one surgical beds will be con-

tinued for almost drawal of services, fined as death. The importance realized.

The Bovey Commission, in the guise of fifty questions, is probably well on its way to making uP its mind. lf we take up their invitation to the game, then it is possible that we can change what seems to be a predestined future. While to play is perhaps definitely not to win.

To be-h pig or not to be Changes. A fact of life, but few changes are as drastic as going to university. Personalities and feelings get twisted about and more often than ‘not students become just that: twisted. Oh sure, there’s pressure. A lot of it. Exams, living away from home,, maybe girl or guy trouble and a host of other tests and assignments trying to make you go bald before you even see 2A. Hey, but that’s nothing compared to peer and family pressure. It’s hard to explain to parents and. friends why your marks aren’t what they used to be. Doubt creeps up on vou more and more. You don’t understand all that the teacher says, which is ’ a big change from high school. All this stress, worry and confusion called “university” can really pull your self-confidence down. This is probably the hardest change to cope with. There are a lot of ways to handle this and unfortunately the wrong way is often chosen. People will act arrogantly to regain lost confidence. Come on people, use your brains. A little common sense and respect for others would really be nice. I know many people who think university students are stuck-up, arrogant jerks. Why is this? Is it the few giving the bad impression for the whole? These are not easy questions to answer. it’s true that people act differently under different circumstances. Johnny Jerk transforms himself into the sincere, loving Sonny slick as soon / as a girl comes along. ’ At university, you’re just an average person. No longer the “browner” who knows all the answers but someone working hardto pass. At school you’re one of the gang struggling through that tough.assignment but at home you’re that special genius. Nice change. Maybe it’s a way of building up your confidence after realizing you’re no longer special. I’ve heard it said that everyone wants to feel superior to someone else. It has to do with self worth. You can’t seriously think you’re worse than

everyone else and feel good about yourself. (Alright, you masochists, we know you’re an exception but put a lid on it). It’s hard to feel good about yourself in university with all the doubt and stress, but maybe easier to go back home and lord it over the people- not going to university. These attitudes are extremely rude and should be changed. Maybe it’s just pride and for building confidence. Talking circles around “the fesser educated” makes you feel smarter and better but you’re acting like a jerk. Experience, wisdom and intellect are three different things. Better education does not make a better person, yet this idea seems to be the prevalent thought in many people’s minds. A few issues ago, Imprint ran a local club revue. At the conciusion of the article, the author recommended that male students wear their university jackets to pick-up girls at the club. Nice logic there. Lets see if I got this right: going to university makes you a better person and irresistible to the opposite sex. Crystal clear to me. I’d like to punch the guy in the nose. This elitist attitude is what really bothers me about university. People who go to university are no better or worse than those who do not. I wish people could understand that university is not the same as, nor can it replace, real life experience. Post-secondary education can enhance but never supercede real life. Remember why you go to university, to prepare and educate yourself to survive in the world, not to put down or replace those in the world who you think you are better than. I keep being reminded of Orwell’s Animal Farm and what happened when the smarter pigs were more equal than the others. The analogy is ‘a little extreme but does have a point. I know the pressure and stress is hard to handle, but we don’t have to become pigs. Steve

Billboard charts, Republican Party Leaders, Barry Goldwater was suffering a resounding defeat in the U.S. presidential election, and The Free Speech Movement was coming to the Berkeley campus. The Free Speech Movement was a sign that student unrest was growing at universities, including such littleknown places as the campus of the University of Waterloo. It was back in 1964 that a handful of students unhappy with the living conditions in the university residences, got together to discuss the possibility of starting a student housing cooperative which would offer an alternative lifestyle to that allowed by the administrationcontrolled university residences. Twenty years later, the Waterloo Cooperative Residence ’ Incorporated (WCRI) is one of the largest student housing co-operatives in North America, rivaling in size similar coops in Berkeley, California and Ann Arbor, Michigan. WCRI is also recognized as being one of the most successful and stable of all student cooperatives. The first house purchased by WCRI was at 140 University Avenue West. When UW administration got wind of the co-operative the project was almost crushed irrunediately. The academic patriarchs were shocked and appalled that both men and women were to be living under the same rood and threatened to expel the students involved if they c-wried out their original plan. The situation was resolved when the house across the street was purchased, and in September 1964, the co-op was started with 141 University Avenue West housing 9 female students and 140 University Avenue West being the home of 27 male male co-opers. What followed was an unlikely success story that seemed destined for failure at every turn along the way. WCRI’s services were caught up in the explosive expansion of universities in southern Ontario in the 60’s. While Dylan was wailing “How does it over the airwaves the student owners FEEL...” were buying and selling buildings and gaining canital. Soon, a new building was being planned, &d in May, 1966, the Dag Hammarskjold residence opened Hammarskjold (named after the former - secretary of the UN) was the first residence in

North America build, owned, and <operated by students. The three floors at “Hammar” were named after three student ‘civil rights activists, Schwerner, Chaney, and Goodman who were murdered by the Klu Klux Klan in Mississippi while fighting for racial eqmity in the South. ’ This symbolic act was a reflection of the times, students’ anger at the stystem, and their demands for social change. On June 24, 1967 the board of directors established a statement of purpose. for WCRI, it read, “a community in which students learn through the experiences of different kinds and types of people...to provide low cost housing, with personal and social freedom, along with responsibility”. The behaviour of WCRI residents was soon to become an issue with Waterloo city council. In 1967, a Waterloo alderman, Russel Ledger, presented his council with a list of grievances against the members of WCRI. Ledger charged that WCRI had put up a glorified front “for loose morals”. He claimed that co-opers had stolen pets and starved them to deth stolen pets and starved them to death and that on some occasions scantily clad girls and boys ran around the lawns in front of houses on the north side of University Avenue. He summed up by saying “The entire area is a disgrace to the city”. The Alderman later withdrew all his charges after the residents at WCRI invited him to take a look at their operation. WCRI represented an autonomous entity to the University - the students could voice their opinion without fear of reprisal. And education committee was set up, producing material such as “Brief on University Action Concerning Student Use of Marijuana” (March 5, 1968). The liberal attitudes of students of WCRI of the day was not met with universal approval from the community. WCRI also took a great interest in campus politics in the early days. On one occasion, over 200 bodies stormed the great hall of the Campus Center , and called a general student meeting. Under the suspect smoky haze, the Campus Center was declared a part of the co-op. The action resulted in -the establishment of the turnkey facilities. (Due to improper notice, the impromptu meeting was declared illegal). In 1968, the Phillip Street complex, a 2.5 million

This is done completed in time for the beginning of the fall term mainly in the form of building improvements. md students were forced to sleep in trailers and on 7 WCRI is experiencing the same brick problem that ’ ;he floors of existing-co-op buildings. The housing has plaqued the Married Students Apartments. The shortage was so drastic --that there were few Board of Directors have stated, that they would complaints from students.

King Yellowman is at his flashiest, vulgar best. His lyrics are rude, self indulgent, and sexist, but the music is powerful. Yellowman starts acting up on the very first track, complaining about the English- climate and the supposed frigidity of her , female citizens. Yellowman is strong enough to carry on. Backed up by sophisticated hom/synthesizer lines, and strong back-up vocals . Yellowman is approaching his prime. Yellowman is a lover, Yellowman is a traveller, Yellowman is a philosopher, and even a political commentator.

YELLOWMAN CAN’T WOULD FZGHT OVER

UNDERSTAND THE FALKLANDS.

WHY

ANYONE

“JAH, GOTTA KEEP ON MOVING”, is a remake of an old Marley song about persecution of Blacks by the police in the United States. Yellowman finally overcomes his apparent hesitancy to sing, and shows off a rough, but appealing set of pipes. Unfortunately, the second side of the album is a write-off. Yellowman becomes distracted and redundant. I guess there’s only so much one can say about one’s cock. Yellowman at his best is a hard, driving, non-sensical D.J., but he would be no favourite with feminists. King Yellowman isn’t intelligent or enlightening, but he is fun, and ya‘ can dance to it.

Of such is the legend of Yellowman - an albino youth who conquered the D.J. circuit in the back streets of Kingston, some five years ago. After twenty albums produced in some of the world’s poorest studios, and hundreds of back room sessions, Yellowman has finally emerged out .the hundreds of Rasta singers in Jamaica. King Yellowman is the first and only domestically produced Yellowman offering. Rock in North America is finally coming of age.

@ifaij&

Nonetheless, Hysteria, filled with catchy love songs as well as songs which speak out against society, is an excellent album. “The Lebanon”, “-Betrayed”, and “The Sign”, are examples of songs which are outcries against society. On the flip side of the coin, there are such tender love songs as “Louise”, and “Life on Your Own”. The delicate, and sweet background vocals of Joanne Catherall and Susanne Sulley accentuate the feeling in these and other songs. The second side of the album is filled with cuts of similar to those which graced Dare!: songs with simple, biting lyrics, and subtle background vocals.

Suite Suite

by Steve Madison Imprint staff

I sat down one night to listen to Honeymoon Suite’s debut album expecting to suffer through another band mercilessly beating their to pass instruments themselves off as heavy metal. My anxieties vanished immediately with the opening song, “New Girl Now”, and I warmed to the group quickly. By their fifth song, “Now That You Got Me”, they had me. Cut after cut, the album’s mood and texture changed from a pop rock to new wave to pseudo punk to heavy metal as Honeymoon Suite strutted their stuff in style. The band leaves you no doubts as to whether they’re anything but first-rate musicians. They can really.

put a smile on your face a:metal drums heavy ant guitars go head to heat against their opposite. . number, new wave key bo*ds. The whole album build towards this point with a interesting flip-floppin between heavy metal and net wave - sounds coming 01 between the solid pop rot songs. As expected, no sing style wins the contest, bl you’re sure both will be bat for more. That’s just what you wan more, as Honeymoon Suit tantalizes you with a wid assortment of music type It’s easy to forget that this is debut album because it such a damn good listen. Tl selections fit together so WI and flow with no appare rough edges. Honeymoon Suite has made a very good first impression and it sounds like they could make it a lasting. one.

Although I was first aCquainted with Chinese music from a retiord album 1 borroyed from a public library six years ago, I was unprepared for the breath-taking lyricism, the simple but haunting beauty, and the elegant phrases and notes of the music several accomplished Shanghai soloists presented last June 20th at the,Hvmanities Theatre. The two-hour performance, Music from China, was a magnificent inti-oduction to traditional Chinese music: the lays Qf ancient peasants, feudal lords, and generals. From the very first composition, “Spring Is Here”, written by Lei Yusheng, I knew I was in for a special treat. The song, performed by a trio using Chinese instruments, fea- _ tired a light, legping sound, like brook water trickling over stones or birdsong along the Yangtze. The instruments were fascinating., Er-hu, an instrument akin to the violin, is more subtle than itsWestern counterpart. It is a’ Go-stringed, bowed instrument. Yan-quin, a Chinese dulcimer,, has a singing quality of tone. Zheng% similar to the’ harp, being a plucked instrument., However, it has 21 strings and is’ played in a horizdntal position. The pi-pa, a four-stringed plucked instrument resembles the lute in both sound and shape. . Qne of my favourite pieces was the ancient battle song, “Besiegement on Ten Sides”. A soloist plucked the flamenco-guitar sounding pi-pa until it spoke angrily of war. “The Moon in the Pool”, a love song by Hua Yanjun, performed by an all-‘female string quartet, had a tie&, . significant sound. It was the performance.1 most enjoyed. The song was a / midsummer night’s’ dream of a charm:. ‘the moon was as lun‘ar as never heard before. ,It was like Li PO’S .moon: so seductiye, one wants to embrace it and drown; It; was cicadic-the sound of moonlight rippling on a pond. (When,young men go cdurting young women by moonlight, they should serenade them with this laid-back and sensuous lay. ) In general, the concert presented a tender music, music to let a hundred flowers blossom or a hundred schools of thought con&!nd; and I loved’it, every note.

Trail By Jury and HMS Pinafore, The two operettas, performed from June 13-17 at UW’s Humanities Theatre delivered what the audience wanted: lighthearted comedy and ‘sound musical numbers in the tradition of the original pr&uction. The productions were staged by the Waterloo * Branch of the Gilbert and Sullivan Society under director John Kerr. - In Trziil By Jury, Edwin’ played by the suave Greg Lorent z is being sued for breach of promise by the fetching AngelinaFung ’ by lead soprano Alison Watson.

II- Paul Nowak as the strutting court usher an’d Bktice Bricknell as the self-important juclge dominated the Trial production tiith’ their comic pandering to’the distressed Angelina. AS Sir Gilbert interided, the chorus in both operettas were vital-to ‘the productions. The chorus’ fulfilled their roles as plot developers’ with skill and obvious enjoyment. The second work, HMS Pinafore, starred Wayne Berwick in a lacklustre perfbimance as Ralph Rackstraw, t,he lowly able Seaman who is in lovemith the Captain’s daugh;ter, Josephine. B&e Bricknell as the bom,bastic Sir Joseph Porter, the man engaged ‘to Josephine, more than made up for Berwick’s performance. I&ich songs as “When I was A Lad” and.“Never Mind* the.

In early June, the English Society and ASU jointly sponsored a visit to the Stratford Festival Theatre Dresentation of Love’s Labour L&f. This nroduction has skaduated from the Third. Stage, the training Lore of $oung ta&ted actors, with some of,. this year’s cast a carry-ov+?r from last season’s tiarmly acclaimed performances. This’ broad Shakespearean &medy examines j&t’ how &ckly four ;oun’g gentlemgn’s sblemn pledge to abstain from everything but schdlarship for thrtie years falls quickly from the chosen road with the appearance of four fdreign laidies at court. The play bubbles over with wordplay ranging from windy nonsense to suggestive innuendo. This may suggest that language takes on more itip&tance than characterization, and this is npt far from the truth. The quartet-of would-be scholars,,led by Betiedict%?ampbell as the King of Navarre, never quite lend a strong ifipression, not do their female counterparts, except Maria Ricossa as the Princess of Princess of France, whose haughty demeanor plays well ,against- the occasionally blustery Campbell. Two other Campbells, Douglas and Torquil, played Costard the -gr?om (translate clown) and Moth, the boy page. The former was a thoroughly garrulous, diity old man whose role in the mock “play within a play’: was an exercise in backhanded .. .g$lee. The youpgest Campbell shone in the’poised‘reparteeswith the dilapidated Don Armado, as ‘played by John Neville .a While a reading of the play indidates sbmeone in his early to late fo_rties, the casting of the sixty-ish Neville is a bold stroke, perhaps symbolizing the unkind fa:e of someone who had .behaved very much like the band of youths in the past. One truly bizarre aspeFt of this production was the clothes, ranging from Doh Armado’s pa’tch of rags to Victorian sashed dresse!, saucy bodices, 18th century cloaks, and modern long pants. < . . .

w1t

The timeliness of the play, however, d&s not detract from the confusedgeriod setting. I found this production to lack the aathartic intensity of Othello or some similar Shakespearean tragedy, but as classic comedy, it goes down very well:

* ‘A Gentleman ‘and a Scholarship * - . :

The question of whethe; or not Canadian iniversities shbuld award athletic scholarships is one that has been-around f6r a long time. l,am not sure when the idea was first prqposed but it was ce@inly before my /time. And by the time the question is fin&ly resolved, 1may not be an old man, but ‘n&her ,tiil.l be a student at this universjty. Why are we discussing .athletic scholarships at a time when universities in Ontario are suffering from underfunding and cutbacks in our academic programs? One reason is,that there is a growing body- of sports officials who support the idea ~that 6thletic scholars&x will be a methdd of turning Qnada into’s _world pokier ‘in amateur athletics. These ‘people- iook at the system in the U.S. and wish that Canadian universjties could be athletic factories such as USC, Notre ‘Dame, Michigan or any other big-time U.S. school. 1 would be the first to support athletic scholarships if‘,the rewards could be enjoyed by the whole academic community. If the revenues generated by the Warfiors football tegm could support the entire Athletic DepaMent (a 1~ Michigan), 1would sign anything to bring scholarships here. However, the realities of universities in Ontario preslude the pdssibility of this c happening. , First of all, we do not have a 100,OO Seat stadium and even if ‘We did we couldn’t fill it. Second, we don’t have the national, or ; even international media c,overage that is necessary to generate L ,’ I broadcasting revenues. Third, we don’t have a student- body large enough to,pay for the world-class facilities that a worldTher’e are lots o,f enthusiastic persons i&olved in the five recreational leagues this summer. ;411 together there are a total of 129 teams.’ All class team ficeds. And fourth, otirnni do not seem&j want to leagues will continue for s,ix to eight weeks Bnd conclude with a final support the universit+ &let@ program like they do in the U.S. challenge consisting of all intereSted teams from the leagues. ’ If the univ&rsib does not hay? the money for athletic Below are the date& of the challenges and <he fin;1 entry dat.es. scholarships, why doesn’t it turn to the-private sector. or &j the Captains; make’sure your team has+egigtered by the&final entry deadline governing sports bodjes sush as Hockey Canada ?r Basketball . ‘i : in the PA?Z 2040, by 4:30 p.m. Cinada?

UjV ‘& Olympics While we have mentioned w.orld rankings, it is worth noting fhat Canada finished in second position at the last world championship in women’s field hockey. Judy McCrae, the Head Field Hockey .Coach at the ’ University of Waterloo, can feel a part of the Canadian team’s rise to the top two in the world as she has been in charge of the -long-term development pro’gra’m for the Canadian team for the past nutit.@ of years. Mi. McCrae will be with the Canadian Field Hockey Team in Los Angeles. The University of Waterloo will have an active participant on the Field Hockey Team in -the, person‘ of Lisa Bauer, U-W’s all-time leading field hockey scorer. It was felt that graduate studies might interfere with \ her partici~-‘iqm nn the team. However, SM.” Bauer LI~UC~ was wuu Selected “--- _ to the: te’am and will be at the Los Angeles Olympics. In her last year at U W, Ms Bauer was ‘-selected as U W’s Female Athlete of the Year:

While many rkpresentatives have yet to be sele.cted as Canadian participants for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, frorq that group which has already been selected, U W has some involvement. Don McCrae will be the coach of the Canadian National Women’s Basketball ,Team. The Canadian Team, under Coach MtiCrae, recently qualified in atournament which took place in Cuba. I There are only six women’s I teams in the Los Angeles Olympics. To be ranked as one of the top six in the world is certainly an accomplishment. It will be interesting to j see the placing of Canada in the Olympics. Local fans will have an opportun-ity to see the Canadian team in action on Tuesday, July 3, .1984 at the Wilfrid Laurier Gymnasium. At 8:00 p.m., Canada will play Czechoslovakia in, a tuneup for the Olympics. Tickets are available at Wilfrid Laurier University.

work [of building the Warriors hockey team] could go down the drain”. In brief, Mr. McGuire felt that the position of hockey coach should be “a full-time job” . Mr. McGuire spoke with enthusiasm about the hockey program (which he saw as being on “the verge of blossoming”) and the team’ s improving record: “We went from being a team that won two games two years ago to being a team that missed the playoffs by only two points last year”. . Mr. McGuire believes the team “is no more than, three years away” from winning a national hockey championship agaiin. * I The last time UW won was in the 1972-73 season.
