Feds lose OFS referendum by Carl Davies Imprint staff Forty thousand dollars a year for the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) is money well spent according t o nearly twothirds of Waterloo's undergraduate students, who turned out to vote in last Monday's referendum. Voter turnout was strong o n October 15th, a sunny day,'as 21.9 percent of the eligible voters came out 65.6 percent in favour of retaining Waterloo's membership in the OFS. The last time a referendum was held on whether Waterloo students should remain in OFS, only 12 percent of eligible voters showed up at the polls. Of the eight polling stations on campus, all came out in favour of remaining in the OFS. The only group that showed support for withdrawing from the O F S were the off-campus and co-op students who mailed in their ballots. The strongest support for the O F S could be found a t the Renison College and Arts students' polls. Students at Renison voted 95.2 percent in favour of the provincial student body. The overall on-campus vote expressed its wish t o stay in the O F S by a four-fifths margin, o r by 80 percent.
.
Inside
O F S chairperson. Mbnika T w n e r , said $heAwas"delighted a t the overwhelming mandate (that the students) g&e OFS." She added that now the O F S could "really work on the issues Waterloo students want." When Ms. Turner was asked what reasons she attributed to the OFS's decisive victory, she stated that the O F S had "worked hard o n a n issue oriented campaign". She also made note &the tact that the people working o n their campaign "were able to conduct a lot of one to one talks with the students." One of the major issues that Ms. Turner perceived as coming from the whole referendum question was that it "really increased the profile of the O F S o n the Waterloo campus". Looking ahead, Ms. Turner said that she looked forward to working with Waterloo's Federation of Students again. Shortly following the tallying of the ballots, Federation president Tom Allison issued a written statement in which he wrote, "While personally disappointed with the results, I have the greatest respect for the students' decision. T o turn a phrase, 'the students are always right"'. Mr. Allison's statement explained that "The Federation of Students had t'wo objectives, in mind when the referendum was called. The first was t o increase the level of students' awareness of O F S and the second was t o withdraw our membership. We succeeded with our first goal a n d failed with our second." The statement went o n t o say that with a "renewed mandate ...the Federation of Students will work with-OFS with all the vigour and determination it has in the past." Congratulations were issued t o the O F S from Mr. Allison "for having run a very good campaign." He added that "OFS has earned its renewed mandate." The people that worked on the campaign t o withdraw from O F S were thanked by Mr. Allison, in particular Kathryn Seymour, who led the Federation of Students' withdrawal effort. I

Bovey
Commission
by Signy Madden Imprint staff Higher tuition fees will likely be one recommendation handed down by the Bovey Commission early next year. This was the general consensus of all five speakers at WPIRG’s October 9th discussion on the Bovey Commission. Howard Epstein, the representative from the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations (OCUFA), said that the Ontario government has money within its $27 billion budget to increase funds for universities, but it does not set this as a high priority. It is likely, he said, that the Bovey Commission will recommend tuition fee increases along with other measures. The provincial government promised in the past that all qualified students would be given access to university. To honour this promise, Mr. Epstein says the province will have to increase funding. The only other alternative is to cut enrolment and sacrifice accessibility. U W’s Dean of Arts, Robin Banks also paints a bleak picture of the future. According to Dr. Banks, the quality of education iseroding at an escalating pace. “Something has got to happen,” said Dr. Banks, “- We need
Leninism by Alex Weaver Imprint staff A recent Canadian University Press Article linking the University of Guelph student union with the Communist Party of Canada (Marsist-Leninist) has “sensationalic.ed” a controversial issue, says John King, president of the Guelph Central Students’ Association (CSA). The CSA passed a motion adopting the People’s Front four-point program. at its July 18th meeting. The points deal, generally, with the struggle against foreign domination, imperialism, fascism, and racism.
would be stats-of-the-art. and it would be thorough. Re-emphasising bib commitment to the students. Dr. Graham added that the outlet would be run by co-op students.
a $10 million dollar increase to maintain quality.” This funding must come from the provincial treasury, private donations and fee increases. Dr. Banks noted that “a good case can be made to increase fees up to twice the amount in three or four years.” This increase would, he added, be like an income tax geared to the students estimated earnings after graduation. During question period, Dr. Banks stressed that the provincial government not students, should pay for education, and that tuition increases should be a last resort. The CFS-0 representative, Richard Balmis, predicted that the Bovey Commission would recommend an, increase in fees from five to ten percent each year or cutting enrolment. The strongest condemnation of the Bovey Commission came from Stan Fogel, representing U W’s Faculty Association. Prof. Fogel speculated that the Commission will1 result in the “usual platitudes, saying that the system is fundamentally a good one” and doesn’t need drastic change. He later called the Commission “asinine” and said that it would fail to deal with many necessary issues. In his presentation as official representative for the Federation of Students, Mitch Retterath said that students would rather see a rise in quality in education even if it meant an
at Guel’ph? Jim Ryan, CSA V.P. External, cast the only opposing vote. Mr. Ryan felt that adoption of People’s Front policies implied support of the organization, and found the wording unacceptable, Mr. King said. “Everyone likes to sensationalize the Marxist-Leninist aspect of it...We are not supporting all the CPC’s ideas, just the four points of the People’s Front programme.” Joanne Bruce, CSA VP Academic, defended the decision in a Sept. 4th article in the University of Guelph student newspaper The Ontariotl. “It is a nonpartisan organiza-
tion,” she said, although Mr. Ryan disagreed with her. Mr. Ryan wants the CSA to rescind the July 18th motion, and replace it with a set of proposals that might be more acceptable, Mr. King said. Ian Kirby, author of‘the Ontarim article, said that the CUP-edited version (which appeared in the /tnpritlt and other CUP papers across Canada) was ; Inaccurate. “Remarks were taken entirely out of‘ context”. he said, Muriel Draaisma. CU P national bureau chief‘, said she w/as unaware that the rewritten articles contained inaccuracies.
New Wave dictionary by John L. Tracey Imprint staff The UW project to computerize the New Oxford English Dictionary held a presentation October 10th to explain its direction and scbpe. k $400,000 grant has been allocated to the project by the Federal government. Heil Hultin and Harold Logan, co-directors of the project, expressed their intention to make the N.O.E.D. a useful tool rather than “an historic monument”.
Hard and electronic copies of the dictionary will be available, Mr. Halton said. The project, which UW won over competition with other universities and hightech firms, will aim for a “new, up-to-date machine-readable product”. Subsequent projects will result; for instance, historical, dialectical, technical, and professional subunits of the dictionary could be created and enlarged. The problem of locating the meaning of a word without the correct
foresee
spelling might be overcome by using technology which would permit the computer to accept incorrect spellings. Similar prefixes, roots, and suffixes could form the basis of specialized, etymological dictionaries.

higher fees increase in tuition fees of 5-lOY0. When a member of the Graduate Student Association accused Mr. Retterath and the Feds of changing their position on tuition fee increases, Mr. Retterath quickly said that he only suggested this to generate discussion. Mr. Retterath went on to say that this was a personal view, and not a Fed position. When asked why he gave a personal viewpoint when acting in an official capacity, he told Imprint that he had not organized his presentation well and only wanted to play “devil’s advocate”. Mr. Retterath also suggested that increased funds should come from industry and provincial government as well as students. Mr. Retterath said that if the students show they are willing t; contribute more to their education, then the province might be willing to follow. Howard Epstein, responding to this statement, said Mr. Retterath was “naive” and that “the government will not strike a bargain that you can trust them on.” One listener pointed out that industrial contributions do nothing to meet the University’s operating budget and that a modest tuition increase would not be sufficient to meet present ’ needs. 1* .

Ms. Campbell stressed that although there <has been some succes s in the program, 198 1 house reports show that oniy 15.5:/b of the full-time teaching staff in universities are women compared to a 1950’s statistic of 1 lyb.

Legislation can be avoided, according to Ms. Campbell, if the movement is given top priority and resources to complete its objective. Since all the Affimative Action committees are publicly funded, she thought they should be especially sensitive to public issues such as equal employment. Many universities don’t identify with AA because progress is made by women at the universities and not by university administration. Several women at the dinner cited the administration as being unto-operative and negative towards women’s studies programs.

Why the OFS referendum?* UW students do listen. At least, those who vote do. Last Monday, the Federation’s continued involvement in OFS was approved by a two to one ratio. With a massive increase in direct campus involvement, representatives of the Ontario Federation of Students lobbied clubs, associations and anyone else who cared to listen. Their message was basically simple enough. In recent months, OFS has become a fairly-disciplined, lobbying group. The reason the UW campus had not heard about these improvements, OFS claimed, was the Federation council’s failure to do its job of laison. The Federation’s position to pull out of OFS was supported by a majority of the executive, which (let’s face it) runs council. Their basic argument was that the organization had decayed rather than improved and that the lack of information was the fault of OFS. It was clearly shown that it was the Fed’s duty to liaise between the group and UW students. So Federation President, Tom Allison, in public debate, shifted the blame to imprint, saying it was the paper’s refusal to print OFS news which was the problem. Any old pqrt in a storm, one supposes. There was a surprising lack of real issues for a campaign which was supposedly focussed on “issues not personalities”. The Federation’s arguments were so easilly discounted by OFS, that one wonders about the political efficacy of calling the referendum at this time. When it was clear that liaison was the‘Federation’s responsibility (directly opposite to the Fed position), Tom Allison blamed imprint. When it was clear that the OFS had improved, had the respect of the Bovine, er, Bovey Commission, and of the wicked witch of North Metro, The Honourable Bette Stephenson, Mr. Allison claimed that the organization was attempting to “cut CFS off at the knees”. He neglected to tell students that he lobbied for that “dangerous” amputation while Treasurer of OFS. Clearly, the Fed campaign lacked convincing arguments.
-
Why then did they call the referendum? Possibly because they thought no-one was interested; that the OFS was in disarry, and unable to fight back. Whatever the motivation, when the whip came down, the Feds were underneath it. Although beaten in this battle, the anti-OFS position lost the war. OFS has led UW students to believe, through the intensity of their campaign, that the organization will be much more active on campus than in the past. Representatives could have met directly with students before the referendum was called. After all, even Tom Allison cannot prevent that occurence, no matter what OFS spokespersons say. OFS has to put their reps where their mouths were. If they drop back out of sight, after all the brouhaha of recent weeks, they deserve to lose UW as a member. It will be interesting to see how well the group continues to “lobby” for that support. In the end, the most interesting part of the referendum vote was the outcome. Many cynics predicted that the student body would rubber stamp the executive’s position. This goes hand-in-hand with the current notion of the apathetic uninvolved “new student”. While these new s uden!s may not care to participate in the machinations f campus politics, they are not asleep. Supplied with the information, those who voted chose the most beneficial path, for themselves and the brothers and sisters in other Ontario institutions (educational, not correctional or psychiatric). Congratulations to those who voted, shame on those who did not. Let Monika Turner, OFS chairperson, remember: OFS is supported at the pleasure of UW students. Any motions to of the education issue mandate could cause that position to change. UW students are watching you. Let those cynics remember: on a supposedly apathetic, sheep-like campus, on this issue, the students prevailed not the Federation executive. D&v BrolI’I~l~lIl
The Feds, don’t care If the $4,000 plus spent on the OFS referendum had any benefit at all, it was to educate the students at UW about student government and student issues. Aside from the “yes OFS” committee filling the shameful gap in information about the OFS, left by the Waterloo Federation of Students, it showed us something aboui our wonderful student government at Waterloo: lt has no sense whatsoever of the concerns of undergraduate students. Given that every single faculty on campus voted overwhelmingly in favour of maintaining membership in OFS, it is appalling that no member ‘of the Waterloo Federation Executive or student council campaigned in favour of the OFS. It is irritating that council passed the referendum unanimously (with tow abstentions) and that no one associated with the referendum saw anything wrong with spending over $4,000 to run the referendum. They used student money to run this referendum and they also used student money to support’ the campaign of the anti-OFS “Withdrawl” Committee’s position, which was diametrically opposed to the will of the students of the university, as evidenced by the 2-1 vote in favour of the OFS. This squandering of resources is obviously disturbing. But what is more disturbing is the total lack of Feds have demonstrated for student issues and concerns. Firstly, they underestimated the intelligence of Waterloo students by choosing to plaster the campus with posters asking “If you don’t know what you’re getting for your money, should they be getting it?” I guess this was to imply that informing the students of the crucial role that OFS plays in representing Ontario students to government, is the responsibility of th&FS (meaning student presidents ! and executives from other universities) and not the responsibility of the three paid executive members who show up at OFS conferences or the VP-external, Peter Klunael, who “has piles of OFS material sitting in his
respectthe
offices where any student is welcome to it”, to the overpaid Tom Allison whose attendance record was an absolute horror story. Obviously, students are aware of where the incompetence and deficiency really lie. During the counting of the ballots, comments made by Tom Allison and other members of ttie Waterloo executive made me sick. What exactly did it mean when Tom said “Co-op students are always more pragmatic than oncampus students” or “I don’t want Integrated Studies you can have them” or “You’ve got to students, understand .. . Waterloo students don’t care about student government or issues, they care a lot more about beer”; or when the vice president-external, having been informed that Environmental Studies voted overwhelmingly for OFS, responds by saying “fucking crunchy granolas”? It means that not only are they not in the business of representing students, but also that they have no respect for their wishes. By overwhelmingly supporting the OFS, Waterloo students clearly indicated that they care about student aid, tuition fee hikes, about the quality of their education and classroom sizes. They care about the Ontario Government’s plan to axe University departments and programs, about student employment and access to education. They want to be represented by a solid student organization. They care about their future! Something stinks up in that Fed office: They apparently, don’t care. Every executive member and council member, whether they actively campaigned against the OFS, the interests of the students and the will of UW students, or whether they showed a lack of integrity by giving their tacit seal of approval to Allison and his gang, or by maintaining silence in the face of incompetence, should resign. I think the students should grill their council members. As for Tom Allison: thanks for Allison Memorial Hall, but if you don’t want to work on the behalf of the students who pay your salary, find yourself a less responsible job! 4 huh A idrl-Aziz

Straight
-Everybody knows.... In the closet by Zeke Gerrard
(a pseudonym)
Why don’t I go back to the closet where 1belong? Well, tell you what, I’ll go back in mine if you go back in yours. Fair’s fair. This means: no kissing, no holding hands in public, no dating. Don’t ever talk about that word ““x. Don’t even talk about someone you’re in love with, because that probably just means you want to have **x. If you can’t totally supress your **xual longings, at least remember to be tormented by guilt over them. Sound like the parental commands (either explicit or simply “understood”) from the younger years of any of your friends? I wouldn’t wish that kind of tyranny on anyone, not even a queer. Some people try to draw a distinction between the public and the private. Well-intentioned straight friends have said to me that my personal life is nobody else’s business, so there’s no point making things difficult for myself by telling the world about my gayness, I agree that my sexuality is none of your business (What! Why am I writing this column then? More about this, later.), but that means two things. First, that of course, I shouldn’t have to reveal what I want to keep private, like what I do in bed. Second, and just as important, that I shouldn’t have to hide what I want to display openly, like the affection I feel for my boyfriend. To be consistent, those friends should also ask blacks to wear white masks. After all, skin colour is such an unimportant thing, it’s nobody else’s business, so why make an issue by continuously exposing one’s blackness for all the world to see? Obviously, those white masks are an imposition. And so are our straight masks. Part of the problem is a misunderstanding of what it means to be openly gay. It doesn’t mean taking every available opportunity to give a blow-by-blow account of who did what in bed with whom. We may as a group draw the bounds of good taste somewhat differently, but I for one do not consider the mechanical details of sex to be appropriate dinner conversation. A more accurate view of what open gayness means could be illustrated by the relationship I have with my room-mates, who are straight (and whom, I might add, I do not pinch, fondle, or otherwise harass). Noti we’ve had a few Long t alks, but my typical gay remarks aren’t much , more than “There was this really cute guy on the bus today.” (Now is that so hard to take?) It seems pretty silly in a way, but the choice isn’t simply between mentioning and not mentioning cute guys on the bus. The alternative to being openly gay is having to pretend to be either straight or asexual, worrying whether they’ll kick you out, continually covering up, having to watch your every word, not being able to have honest long talks, wondering whether they’ll still like you if they find out...It’s really a terrible strain not to be out to one’s room-mates. The initial l-have-something-to-tell-you hurdle may be difficult, but after that, things are much easier for all parties, in my /experience.

Once again, pseudonym Zeke Gerrard has prepared another weekly harangue against the straight population. Those of us who are not of the enlightened gay segment of society are the notorious bigoted faggotbashers. And those of us who tend to call ourselves Christians are automatically enrolled in the Jerry Falwell Kill the Queers Campaign. Zeke Gerrard considers all those who fail to love and adore the gay lifestyle as being faggot-bashing Neanderthals. 1 believe that hei she/ it(?) has a distorted sense of reality.. 2 I am, like the majority of the population, straight as an arrow. And I am quite content to be this M/ay. It is a choice of lifestyle that 1 find 1 am very comfortable wlith. (Notice, I don’t use a pseudonym). Why is it that Zeke Gerrard finds it to portray the necessary straight life as a form of deviant behavior? And why does Zeke find it necessary to portray Christianity as one of two extremes? He/ shei It(?) depicts Christianity as onl~~ being: 1) a Jerry Falwell Kill Queers hatred or 2) an enlightened gay adoring one. Is there no middle ground?
It is unfortunate that Jerry! Falwell is so often character-! ized as representing, Christianity as a whole. He 1 merely represents the moral! extremists. Mainstream1 Christianity views God as; being far more loving and i tolerant. Yet at the same time ! mainstream Christianity is not represented by the Gay Church. Mainstream Christianity regards the Bible as the norm for human existence. This norm assents, among other things, that the norm for sexual relationships is that of male and female in p. mutual loving relationship. It hardly views the non-gaylifestyle as being abnormal. Couple this with the fact that in a world population of 4 billion, 2 billion are male and 2 billion are female, and I find it hard to accept that heterosexual behavior is deviant. . Therefore, 1 am wondering if Zeke could alter his/ her it stereotypical concept of straights; after all, one of us could be your TA, your butcher, fellow students, even some of your profs . . .

Mathew Ingram Imprint staff Strange as it may seem, there is a very powerful and subversive lobby group at work in our socieiy today, bent on convincing our young folk that not onli is smoking acceptable behaviour, it- is virtually requiied for their survival as teen entities. This clever is group masquerading as its complete antithesis---namely, the anti-smoking lobby. Witness the latest spurt of radio spots, ostensibly designed to persuade our impressionable youth that smoking is Evil incarnate; what we are presented with in these commercials is in fact the completi opposite, subtly disguised. After a pseudo-rap style jingle about this group being the “smoke detectors”, searching out the “lung infectors”, we hear what has to be the prototypical Valley Girl’s voice whining “gross me out!“---or words to that effect. Call me abnormal, but my first impulse upon hearing this is not to quit smoking, but rather to force the girl’s face so deep into a butt-stuffed ashtray that she is unable to speak at all. As if this is not torture enough, we then hear a chorus of equally nasal male voices chanting “We don’t smoke and we don’t chew, and we don’t go with girls that do”; this is just about the last straw. In the first place, I have yet to meet a girl who chews tobacco, and furthermore to the best of my knowledge, no self-respecting teen says h e is “going” with a girl in this day and age---he-might ai well say he and the girl are going to the Malt Shop-pe, for all the peer acceptance it’s going to get him; remember, these are kids who think slam-dancing is child’s play. A similar spot appeared on the tube a few years back--anyone recall “Cool Nick---nicotine”? In this little gem, we see a tough, cool-looking dude lighting a smoke on the school steps, while on the other side a collection of nerds, ‘geeks, and assorted wimps whine: “smoking makes your teeth Jyellouf; smoking makes your breath smellow”, and so on; to think that this would convince the average teen that smoking is a bad thing is simply absurd---there might as well be a voice-over saying “Hey kids: don’t be cool like Nick here, and get lots of chicks---quit smoking and be a complete jerk”. I really think someone should be looking into this--either the people who write up these spots are from another planet, or there is in fact a group of nasty people trying to get more kids to smoke. As a little factual note, the number of teens who started to smoke after the TV spot was aired increased by as much as 35yc over the . national average for previous years. Something to think about.
Village immorality by Nosh R. Din shaw Firstly, many new students arriving at the university have never lived alone or with a roommate until they come to live in the Village. This sudden freedom can have a tremendous impact on the student if he or she doesn’t know how to deal with it. Often times it is the case where students go “hog wild”: late nights, heavy drinking, and plentiful sex. One need not live in the Village to know that this is not fiction but pure and simple fact. Secondly, the ever present and insatiable “need’ for alcohol is dictated to the student by tradition and peer pressure. (Peer pressure will be dealt with later.) Alcohol, it has been shown, has the potential to alter a person’s thoughts, words and actions. This insidious creature can, overtake anyone of us if we arc not careful to use good_: judgment. Drinking is, of course, predominant at all pubs and parties in the Village. The talk during these get togethers is only of drinking and sex: the aim in life as that moment, is to drink and or have sex as much as possible. It is obvious that at this stage in life, sex would be of ‘paramount importance, with possibly only a few others tantamount, depending upon the person. The presence of‘. alcohol facilitates easy sex: that is to say that two students of the opposite sex may not have been aggressive or impetuous without the aid of alcohol. As far as sex is concerned, some have little or no idea of either the motivations or the ramifications. Thus exposing the student’s moral turpitude: this due partially to his naivete and partially to the Village environment, which is a breeding ground for moral decay.

Stand UP.~. Be A Woman! Male-Speak by Hilkka
McCallum
“Brother can you spare a dime?” is a form of respect. But, “Listen sister!” is a way of addressing a lower life form. Generally, in English all things that have positive attributes are “male until proven female”. (Words and Women - Miller, Swift) Since English does not have specific genders assigned to every inanimate and living object, gender is defined as a characteristic of a word that requires other words to agree with it. Thus, pronouns in English are arbitrarily assigned to an object to bring out certain ‘inherent’ qualities. c According to Words and Women, “We toss around words like :masculine and feminine as though they described immutable &characteristics that everyone will immediately recognize as the ‘normal’ and ‘proper’ endowments of male and female people.” Female attributes are often depicted as negative and unwanted. “It (true happiness) feels every thing it wants within itself and receives no addition from multitudes of witnesses and spectators.” Whereas, “She (false happiness) loves to be in a crowd and to draw the eyes of the world upon her.” Although, to Joseph Andrews, an 18th Century essayist, true happiness is a quality that any person may have, false happiness seems to be a quality inherent in females. Thus the female-negative-trivial code
is established. The male-positive-important code is best exemplified in the Oxford definitions of man, manly and manfully. According to that dictionary: “to separate the men from the boys” is to find out who are truly virile or competent. To be “manly” is to have a man’s virtues; courage, frankness, whereas in a woman it is to have a man’s qualities only. To put down a woman she can be called “mannish” which the Oxford says is used in a derogatory fashion to indicate a woman is masculine. She has the characteristics of a man as opposed to a woman. The task of a lexicographer is to record how words are used, it is not to say how they should be used. Thus, the Oxford is not setting a trend of male chauvanism, but merely reflecting a trend of anti-female sentiments. Certain properties have always been described in terms of females. For instance, there is a certain je ne. sais .quoi about “feminine allure”, “feminine wiles” and “womanish tears”. It is true that when a man has “feminine intuition” it is a positive quality in him, but, he certainly cannot show any “woman-like tenderness”. Our society seems to perceive males in terms of human qualities while females are shown in terms of negative qualities specifically assigned to them as female.

“Should
we tax Churches?”
At university you will be introduced to many things, you will try new things and you will discard some old things. But through all of this change and turmoil, you’ll probably ignore religion. Recently the Pope came to Canada. How did this affect you‘? 1 now know that there are over 800,000 Catholics in Toronto. The Pope had very little effect on me. I wonder if the Pope had a significant effect on anyone. We shall see if church attendance rises. I believe in God. 1 do not believe in Ministers, or Reverends, or Pastors. There is much about organized religion that 1do not like. Evangelists !eave a very bad taste in my mouth. Cults which take the very concept of religion and twist it into something exceedingly nasty 1 do not like. The Moral Majority
I see as a threat. I object to the narrowness of view that religions have. The more you read, the more you learn. Living in today’s society made me cynical. I cannot take the Bible on faith. 1 1 guess the trouble is the Church. Most Canadians believe in God because of their upbringing. It is too deeply ingrained to be ignored or changed. In a world of Cruise Missiles the Church is not seen as a valid alternative. Sure the Pope speaks about peace, but to some people he is a capitalist who profits from current world tensions. Should we tax Churches‘? The Church could do a lot for the average person if it could convince him to join. 1 guess the question is: how to make people join? There is also a second question: do we want to join? Dr. Ernie

To the editor: Human nature indeed Miss Boyes! This is the focus of my attention. Of particular interest, to me, is not so much general immutabilities, but rather, the various natures of individuals. Understanding in this area is the key to apprehending personal beliefs and attitudes. Individuals can be separated into two divisions, (connected by a continuum). Type 1 are the “selfdependents”. These people teach themselves, make decisions based upon their own mind, and live according to themselves. These are the egoists. Type 11 are the “otherdependents”. People of this character absorb wisdom from preachers, depend upon someone (or something) else
for guidance, and in addition - serve this authority. Human beings of this kind, survive on a borrowed “I”. Motivating type II people is the concept of love, terribly maligned, and understood in only a vague manner. Evidence to this effect, is amply exhibited in the end of paragraph two, in Miss Boyes’ second letter. Regurgitated here are promulgations abdicating the mind and free will. If types 1 and I1 could be separated into disjoint societies, the result would be clear. Type I would flourish; the second would perish. Finally this: 1 was quite pleased that Miss Boyes replied to my letter. She has proved to be a most informative experiment. John Kominek
What about this towing?!! To the editor: For the past five years 1 have been parking my car in C lot across University Ave. from SCH, sometimes along the light islands. Tuesday night at 11 pm, 1 went to drive home, after a long night of studying, only to find my car was gone and some other car was parked in my spot. In a panic, I searched the entire lot to no avail. My first reaction was that my car was stolen, but as common sense prevailed, 1 realized it’could only have been those “clowns” from security. Scrambling for a quarter, 1 called our men in green only to have them confirm my
greatest fear that the “happy hooker” had deposited my car in the pound behind CK MS. After a heated exchange, the officer charged that my car was illegally parked alongside the light island, and that there were signs posted. Now I find my only recourse is to appeal to something called the “Traffic and Parking Appeals Board” for a refund. My beef is: a) I’ve never been towed, nor heard’ of anyone being towed from that spot before; b) why on that particular day did they decide to start towing at that spot, and why not a ticket? S. Adams
To the editor: What follows is an attempt to persuade some of the good readership to believe that creating a moral society is possible, but requires that we abandon one of our more cherished notions: that of supernatural law. This doctrine is specified as mysticism-altruism in philosoph. It holds that ethics is outside the power of reason, and that morals and values must be dictated to us by, or stem from, a mystical source. Mysticism is most commonly found in the belief of some type of God. There is another lesser known, but nevertheless important mystical dogma: Marxism. It holds that the evolution of society is determined by “class struggle” while man’s actions follow some unknown pattern based on some strange metaphysical principle which drives working class people into revolution in a battle for a classless society. This social determinism is a secularized mysticism. The unknown law which creates the so-called revolutionary pattern may be natural, as is claimed, but there is no scientific basis for it. Although it is supposed to involve the “proletariat’s” social consciousness, this strain of mysticism merely substitutes that idea for God. It is equally deadly. 1 will attempt to prove that mystical ethics is the primary evil that precludes the existence ofa moral society, and that rational ethics must be universally accepted and practiced if a moral society is ever to be found. Man is a thinking, living,rational being. Since everything, including man, behaves in accordance with its specific nature, every man must live the life of a rational being. In short, to live is to think. The products of a man’s rational actions, therefore, arc aimed towards the maintenance of his life. From this we can infer that man has the right to his life, and the right to act to sustain it. The rights to act to sustain one’s life and to be able to have freedom of action and choice are fundamental to man’s nature. Any procedure of action so in accordance with man’s rights and man’s life is moral. Life is the standard of moral values. It follows that any action which neglects the requirement’s life or the rights needed to secure it must be immoral. Moreover, man’s rights are based on his nature as a rational being, consequently, any immoral act involves a repudiation of man’s faculty of reason. We know-. that in the hierarchy of philosophical knowledge . . there are five main levels; epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, politics, and economics. If any belief is held which rests upon an erroneous proposition in a preceding level, that belief must be
false. The errors in epistemology and metaphysics upon which mysticism depends, and the political and economic errors symptomatic of the social abominations of altruism which are mysticism’s consequences, are readily identifiable. If we were to explain the existence of fascist, socialist and divine monarchist states, we would have to know the dominant ethical trend of the time of their formation. Of course we would collective, the discover it was altruism - that the society,the dictator, the God, or the tribe was the ruler by whose whims and edicts citizen slaves would conduct their “lives”. Altruism is the logical consequence of subjectivism and mysticism - the denial of rights follows from the denial of reality and reason. If morality is to exist, it is reason we must support. It is the widely accepted denial of reason clearly associated with mysticism-altruism that we must oppose. We must consistently assert that man needs to think to live. To deny that he does, or that he acts only to satisfy range-of-the-moment desires without respect for the rights of others or for his own values, is evil and immoral. I have established unequivocally what the standards of morality are. Clearly, from what has been mentioned, that mysticism,- secularized or not, is the standard of evil. The most ostentatiously touted justification fo? ‘irrational ethics is Divine Law. Because faith in Gods and adherence to the idea of “God’s love” involves the subjugation of reason to edict, it is “God” we must reject. “Love thy neighbour, love the Almight, but hate thy material self” sums up the mysticist-altruist ethics nicely. lf the irrational doctrine boasts God‘ is perfect love’ the rational doctrine could certainly justify asserting that God is perfect hate. And “He” is: hate of man’s mind, hate for individuality, hate for metaphysical rights, and wealth. No society cansurvive errors of such protound magnitude. Moral nihilism can only follow from these irratinal ideas. If you are distressed at the nuclear arms race, the wars in the Middle East, the pathetic state of the global economy, it is about time you challenged the philosophical norms of today. The next generation of humans. if taught of an objective, absolute reality and the efficacy of reason, if taught to be selfish and moral, may be our only chance to save the race, if not civilization.

Armies,
bombs, navies, air ftirces
So, nothing has changed? The poor are still with us and so are inflation, faction and crime. The people of the East live in the uninformed oppressed vacuum of slavery. The West is free. The East pushes outward. The West keeps it in. And the shadow of death still moves in the corner of everyone’s eyes now that doom is in fashion and the word “peace” with a11 its ambiguity, trips over tongues with the same crazed intensity as the saliva of Pavlov’s dogs. Nothing has changed‘? And we (North, South, East, West, black, white, rich, poor, etc.) are sick of it. What we need is a good war. It’s been a long time since we’ve had one. The economy is sagging - we just can’t seem to get enough contracts for bombs - and there’s nothng like getting rid of the lO$?&who are doing nothing but sitting around drinking up their welfare checks or taking u room in the Gulag. There are loads of new equipment to testout. And besides you can never be too sure about our oil in the Middle East or our minerals in Africa. Besides, most people just want a change . .. regardless. No sir, nothing has changed .. . well, except that the enemy isn’t the Huns, the Krauts, the Chinks, the Frogs, the Wops, the Japs, the Gooks, or the Borgeoisie anymore: it’s the Commies and Capitalist Imperialists. We’re sure working ourselves into quite a frenzied state aren’t we? Preparing for war to get . . . not war. Let’s see, we’ve got armies, bombs, navies, bombs, air forces, bombs, chemical weapons, bombs, biological iveapons, bombs,
conventional weapons. And let’s not forget, we’ve got bombs of all varieties of phalluses, ready and able to reach their targets inb ever more accurate and quicker ways. Mother-EarthF‘*!*l**
.
.
Now, there’s something that has changed. No more little onehorse bombs that could maybe wipe out a house if it was a direct hit. We’ve got bombs that take out whole hunks of cities. We’ve got lots of them too, bombs to bomb the makers of bombs. We’ve actually had them for quite some time now - almost 40 years. So, you could say that nothing has changed still .. . except that we haven’t had a good war for 40 years. But we’re ready. We’ve been making sure that everything will work .. . like clockwork .. . when the time comes. Even Canada has been getting in on the act and now that the love triangel between Reagan, Thatcher and Mulroney has been completed, this nation of our’s might be getting even more involved. That is if Canadians are obliging; if the thought of doom doesn’t affect their minds too adversly and if the word “peace” (with al1 its ambiguity) stays dry on enough people’s tongues. What is really being said is,.. if you give a shit do something. Drop a line to your M.P. or come to the rally tomorrow (Saturday October 20) at Victoria Park at 2:00 p.m. or do both. The issue won’t go away if you ignore it. G ord Durnin 3rd Year Political Science.
Did OFS forget the student? To the editor: In the editorial “Support OFS” (Imprint Oct. 12) some valid reasons were presented for Waterloo staying in the OFS. However, one mjor point ws overlooked. In calling OFS a union of students, representation is implied. Yet the OFS takes stands on issues which are not concerned with education and necessarily representative of the views of a majority of students. For example, the OFS has given its support to the causes of abortion on demand and the withdrawal of Canada from NATO and NORAD. A student union should not take these stands
sponsor a plebiscite to determine just what the students they claim to represent do in fact support. In order to be a strong. effective and iegitimate lobby for students’ rights’ the CiFS should work only in areas of concern unique to education. and still claim to be representative of all students when it is obvious that not all students are in agreement. At the very least they could There are many other organizations around, conserned with myriads ef issues. that students can join and support for representation 0~1 non-educational i,,ues. What we raced “iron? the
OFS is representation on educational matters. No univ,ersity, including Waterloo, should affiliate with the OFS until it becomes
an accurate representative of students on educational issues only. Anysia Rusak John Calzavara

The Sole Dilemma by Dave Hemmerich Imprint staff 1 often seek solace in the Arts Library because it seems it is THE place to escape from loud voices, telephone rings, and other annoyances. The library atmosphere is conducive to concentration. I usually find a study desk on the permieter of the 7th or 8th floor and sit to work. Row after row of literature absorbs the sounds of closing elevator doors and distant whispers. The single silence breaker occurs when someone strolls by with heels clicking loudly - very loudly. Initially I was surprised, then amused, to look up from the page and discover the noisy walker to be a member of the library staff. It took a year or two to sink in, but eventually 1 could tell whether the person approaching was a student or a library staffer - the volume of their walk gave them away. 1 had fun with it for awhile. I might be sitting in the third floor lounge and without looking sideways I’d remark to the person next to me that a librarian was walking by. He’d wonder if I was psychic. I’d say, “No, 1 heard her approaching from a distance.” To verify my observations, I decided to take a scientific approach to the problem of library staff walking volume. So, last week, 1 surveyed library staff for 45 minutes on the 2nd and third floors of Arts Library. Of the 29 library *staffers who chanced to walk within hearing distance, 24 were female, 5 male. Nineteen of the 24 females walked loudly, their shoes emitting one of two sounds: a high pitched “click” or a disturbing horseshoe on pavement “clack”. All 5 males surveyed were quiet walkers, so of the 29 staffers surveyed, 670/C walked loudly, all female. Puzzled, 1 approached the security guard at the front entrance in search of an explanation. He is a soft-soled man. He too finds it strange that staffers walking all day on hard floors choose to wear hard-heeled shoes. But he did note the noisiest usually were well-dressed women staffers. Interestingly, he didn’t recognize a problem but rather enjoyed the loud walks. Next, 1 questioned a female staff member working behind the information desk, a hard-soled woman. She went to the heart of the sole problem immediately, explaining that administration appreciates a professionally-dressed library staff and that such professional dress for females includes jackets, closed collars, skirts, nylons, and business “pumps”. This is a dress attitude, not a dress code. Furthermore, men have a variety of styles to choose from in a soft-soled shoe. Women do not. She illustrated this point by noting that several years ago male library staff were the loudest of the sexes because male shoe fashions were limited to the hard-soled variety. So, fashion rules the airwaves in the library. I’m satisfied with this explanation. Like those employed in other professions, the library staff keep pace with changing shoe fashions. Now, without a sideways glance, 1 can tell the person sitting next to me that a professionally-dressed librarian is walking by.
EIEIEIO by Chris Wodskou Imprint staff The beer is drunk, the mess is cleaned up, the leaves are fallen, and the wheat is eaten. Sad to say, but Oktoberfest is over and students across Ontario (especially, of course, in K-W) must face up to at least a temporary state of sobriety as we brace for midterms after a week of wanton carousing and general drunkenness. 1 know this amounts to heresy around here, and that I risk excommunication for K-W, but 1 just can’t get excited over al1 this Oktoberfest business. Excepting all the. Bavarian traditions, what is Oktoberfest aside from a big, crazy drunk’? It’s not that 1don’t believe that it’s not a really good time, but I wish it wasn’t so bloody expensive. What bugs me most, however, is that obligatory taste of non-culinary German culture known as the oom-pah band which is there to turn every Top 40 hit going into an E I E I E 1 0 ditty to get all the kids boppin’ in a melee which approximates “Bobby Vinton and his Polka AllStars Salute to The Beatles”. I mean, I’m less than wild about Michael J. in the first place, but when 1 hear a plump, balding gentleman replete with shorts and a green hat grind, out “Beat It” on accordion with tuba accompaniment, I’m ready to start a stampede to the most convenient beautiful music station. And then there’s the Bird Dance. Ugh! This dance resembles the D&BEE after his tailor has taken in his tights too much. Oh well, 1 suppose this is just belabouring the subject too much’ and if it’s fun, who cares’! l guess Oktoberfest must have something going for it if it’s Canada’s # 1 tourist attraction.

Feds and.-NUS; round 3 by T.A. Grier J Imprint staff At this week’s Students’ Council meeting, a motion recommending that the Federation of Students launch a suit against the National Union of Students (NUS) was passed. The Feds claim that NUS owes them the $25,000 they have paid in membership fees since 1981, because NUS has “for all intents and purposes, ceased to exist”. According to Fed president, Tom Allison, NUS readily admits to having delegated its responsibilities to the Canadian Federation of’ Students (CFS). In 198 1, when CFS was formed, U W remained a mcmbcr of NUS. In 1983, a motion was passed at a general meeting of‘ council to pull out of NUS. The Fedsconsidered this move to be ,.,T . ._ _ ettectlve as of the date it was passed and stopped paying fees to NUS. NUS, however, did not recognize the withdrawal until May I, 1984. They have since launched a civil suit of their own against the Feds demanding payment of the 1983 fees. The claim of NUS is that U W was a member of a democratic organization and must therefore abide by a decision of a majority of its members. In 1981, however, John Docherty, then chairman of NUS, said that NUS was to becomcadummy corporation of CFS, to hold money in trust. (Imprint, Oct.
1981) At a meeting of council this summer, Mr. Allison recommended that the Feds pay the fees, as no one felt that they would win the case. However, he stressed that the situation changed when a new lawyer was assigned to the case. The Feds were advised that not only could they win the case but that they were !egally entitled to the fees paid since 1981, because NUS did not abide by its by-laws. Although he fkels that “to have one student government suing a national student movement, it’s a no win situatipn for everybody,” Mr. Allison is in favour ofgoing ahead with the suit. He went on to say that the Feds arc obliged to the students to collect the money which they are owed, and that the Feds have a gotd chance of winning the suit. Mr. Allison points out that “NUS has a great deal more to lose than we do,” as the precedent may encourage other schools to demand that their fees be repaid, and f’orce NUS into bankruptcy. At the council meeting, Mr. Allison tabled a figure of $7,000 as possible legal fees. When asked again, however, he indicated that the case may wind up being appealed and that the cost would be difficult to project. Only $200 in fees have thus far been paid. NUS has issued a writ to U W, and a court date is not expected
The history biz in Canada by Hilkka McCallum Imprint staff ((There is more to Canadian history than battles and fur trade,(( stressed Brian Woolsey, Co-ordinator ‘for Systems Planning for the Historical Sites National Board. He stated that the historical sites in Canada were not representative of our overall history, In a lecture at Conrad Grebel College last Thursday, .October 1 lth, Mr. Woolsey
outlined the main initiative of the Board which is to determine .which sites should be preserved and which one only deserve plaques. According to Mr. Woolsey, the plaques save Canadian taxpayers thousands of dollars each year. In 1979, the National Historical Sites Board voted irr favour of a policy of “Preservation First”, which aims at developing history on
location instead of moving artifacts to museums. The main issue for the Board is that historical sites with their must integrate surroundings, especially a peice of history in a city. For instance, Quebec City had made the old fortification walls blend in, thereby adding a spice of history to the city. “What prices authenticity‘?” 1s the question on which Mr. Woolsey concentrated. He said that the Board had a long
shopping list of sites but a limited budget. The sites wh&i are most appropriite for developing must have many qualifications. He says the problem with some sites is that they are historically valuable but the public might not grasp the importance. Mr. Woolsey felt that period construction involving costumes and artifacts is so expensive that it needs a high degree of community support.

Vitamins as a drugwgood by Shayla Gunter Ilhprint staff /The Canadian Nutrition Institute (CNI) has recently charged that Canada’s regulations of nutritional products stifles small business, violates the constitution and unduly restricts consumer choice. David, Rowland (Ph. D), president of the CNl, is concerned with the economic waste, unconstitutionality, and inconsistency created by government food and drug forces. The CN 1claims the survival of thousands of small businesses is threatened by unduly restrictive Food and Drug regulations. By treating certain food factors as “drugs”, the goiernment forces suppliers to do unnecessary\. - . testing. As a result, many products never advance to the market, ,restricting consumer choices.
The CNl states that the “burgeoning bureaucracy is lethargic and costly to the taxpayer.” While waiting for routine approval of some nutritional products, both the supplier and the consumer are held at a standstill. The Charter of Rights and Freedoms is also violated by the government. According to present regulations, any substance can be deemed a “drug” depending on the claims made for it. Even substances such as water may be called a “drug” if therapeutic properties are attributed to it. The CNl says this is an attempt to control intentions or ideas and their expression. Distributors are also legally prevented from telling the truth. They cannot tell consumers what results to expect from nutritional products, nor can they refer to or quote any

testimonial. . The CNl charges that classing nutrients as drugs demonstrates an ignorance of both. They explain, “Nutrients support biochemical processes, but drugs block them.” The Institute reports that there have been no fatalities or cases of permanent damage from taking vitamin or mineral supplements, but warns that all drugs are potentially lethal. Mr. Rowland and the Institute have also questioned many of the regulations and warnings that apply to “drugs”. They ask if it is plausible to believe that anyone who consumes two or more oranges daily is on drugs? This question rises from the classification of a Vitamin C supplement which has the suggested daily intake of 150 mg. It is classed as a nonprescription “drug”. 1
’ The CNl points out that this level is equivalent to three oranges. Thus the reason for their statement. Also, the high iron content in liver (90,000 IUs) surpasses the qmount of iron (10,000 1Us) found in iron supplements, which are considered prescription drugs. Other similar questions deal with excess Vitamin A in everyday foods, and our normal daily intake of sodium and potassium which are minerals found in every food we eat.

Q EDGE 2 p: OTTAWA (CUP) -- Determined to keep the presses rolling, the staff of Algonquin College’s student newspaper, Impact, are fighting the student council’s decision to shut down the weekly publication. About three editors and 15 reporters plan to publish the paper as regularly as possible with advertising revenue and donations. They have gathered nearly 1,400 signatures on a petition demanding the paper’s control be returned to the staff and that the four paid staff members fired be reinstated. The Algonquin student council executive changed the locks on the Impacf office doors Oct. 1 and posted a sign on the door which said the Impact had been “officially shut down.” Conflict between the newspaper staff and the council has been brewing since the summer, when the council executive dissolved the newspaper’s board of directors, repealed the staff’s constitution and hired a communications manager. “The council executive has no concept of freedom of the press and what’s just and decent in this world,” said Impact editor Andy Kolasinski. Council members say “gross insubordination”, the paper’s alleged poor quality and refusal to comply with “directives” issued by the council’s communications manager, Jean-Paul Murray, prompted the executive to close the newspaper. The executive members were elected on a platform of increasing communication with the college’s 9,000 full-time students. The directives, set by the executive and begrudgingly agreed to by Impact’s editor, include weekly profiles of student leaders, a “good new? column, photo funnies, crossword pu/.zles and columns on careers, garage mechanic tips and answering students’ personal problems. “Council doesn’t want to publish a newspaper at Algonquin, it wants to publish mush,” s aid Canadian University Press president Andre Picard, “Their new mandate calls for no accountability on the part of the council at all. That’s no way to improve communications, that’s a way of stifling democracy.” Sylvain Rocque, Algonquin student vice-president,finance, said the council plans to start publishing its own version of the Impact in November with a new staff willing to fulfil1 its demands. He added former staff members are free to reapply for editorial positions. Rocyue, along with student president Daniel Carriere and student vice-president Richard Lanoue, decided at an informal meeting to fire Impact’s paid staff and change the locks on the door. They informed the communications manager of their decision in the college’s corridor.
MONTREAL (CUP) -- For the Quebec government, a degree from a Quebec university is just like an ingot of aluminum, a roll . of newsprint, or a watt of electrical power, according to a recent report by the province’s largest student association. The government fills its quota of subsidized places in Quebec schools with students from countries which are valuable trading partners with Quebec the report says. International stu&iits who fail to get into the quota program must pay $5800 a year. According to the report, written by I’Association nationale des et‘udiant(e)s du Quebec, most of this year’s 3500 students who are exempted from the high fees are from rich countries. “Ranked by (gross national product) per capita, the top ten countries are offered two-third: of the exemptions while the bottom 10 receive only 10 per cent,” the report says. “International student seats in Quebec schools are being sold to the highest bidder with no consideration for the principles of academic excellence or third-world assistance,” it continues. The report was delivered to Quebec education minister Yves Concordia students followed with a Berube last spring. postcard campaign to the minister, asking that the quota System and fee policy be changed. Berube has not replied. However, Quebec’s trade minister Bernard Landry ddmitted recently that Quebec was filling quotas with students from countries that the province wants to trade with. “We use potential criteria of development (of trade relations) to give out the quotas,” he said. “When we admit strangers, we do it with Quebec money, so we have to pick those that are good for Quebec,” Landry said. Fees for foreign students have risen rapidly
HALIFAX (CUP) -- Nova Scotian students will be eligible to vote en masse in the upcoming provincial election for the first time. Students will not lose their franchise in November because of changes in the elections act in 1977. Students can now vote in their home riding or the riding they live in while attending school. “When students are voting that is when student issues will become important,” says Geoff Martin, the chair of the Students’ Union of Nova
Scotia. “We can be a voice and we can make it heard,” he said. Martin said students this year will be concetrated in one riding and will be able to make education issues prominent during the election campaign. One student who will do more than vote in the election is Tim Hill, former student council president at Dalhousie and St. Mary’s universities. Hill will run for the NDP in the election.

Carriere and Lanoue refused to return calls to their offices. Rocque claimed the executive has the power to make such decisions and that the firings complied with the Employment Standards Act. Rocque denied the council’s decision usurped the staffs democracy and infringes on Algonquin’s freedom of the press. “The newspaper is owned by the student union and we should have full say over its operations.” Rocque said. “I don’t think a

Kolasinski said the council wants the newspaper to turn a profit and thinks that it can run the paper more cost-effectively by taking over its operations. The council gives? the paper $26.000 annually from its student levy of $625,000. The balance’ of the paper’s $50,000 budget comes from advertising revenue. Picard added: “If they think a paper at a college is going to turn a profit, they’re fooling themselves. That argument is a joke,” Picard said. “Algonquin council is one of the richest college unions in the country.” Impact staff has received financial help to put out its first issue from college teachers giving individual donations, the faculty association and from Canadian University Press, a co-operative of 55 student newspapers across the country. CUP has given the Impact an advance on its expected advertising revenue, and provided them with alternate office space. The student newspaper at the University of Ottawa, The Fulcrum, had of’fered use of its typesetting and layout facilities. Impactstaff has already gathered enough signatures on a petitionto call a general meeting of students, at which time they hopeto overturn GoLlncil‘s decision.

“Impact is a student newspaper operating democratically with student money,” Picard said. “It’s not. a student union paper. If council want them to be accountable, let them be _ accountable directly to students. That was the purpose of a board of directors council abolished.” Rocque said the executive was also upset by some drinking that had taken place in the liewspaper office and he claimed the newspaper staff bribed a security guard with alcohol to ensure the non-licensed drinking could continue. Kolasinski said, however, he thinks the closure was provoked. by council objections to a Sept. 25 editorial in which the council directives are said to “allow the student union to check the paper over for error and any other damn thing they don’t like.” Kolasinski said council executive members have insisted on proofreading the paper before it goes to press and found the editorial “not polite.”

Perils of parking by Jerry Kdieh, ’ 1Iave you received a parking ticket that you feel was unwarranted? There is an avenue available to all people on campus and that is the Traffic and Parking Appeals Board. ’ The board members are appointed by the president of the university, and consist of five members with at least one person representing the staff, faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students. To make an appeal, you must lodge it in writing “within seven(7) days of the alleged infraction.” You must also have paid the ticket prior to lodging the appeal. The board members carefully consider all the information received from both security and the appellant. After a discussion, there is a vote, and once the vote is taken, the board’s decision is “final and binding.” It is important that the appellant include all pertinent facts such as times and locations as best he or she can.
Most appellants admit to violating the regulations but consider their particular circumstances outstanding. However, the board often finds that these circumstances still did not justify the offence and the appeal is denied. It’s important that everyone on campus familiarize . . . themselves with the Traffic and Parking Regulations which can be found in the Federation of Students office and the Security office. If you have a special need for temporary parking in a prohibited area (e.g. to unload a large project), go to the Security office and they will accomodate you with a free temporary pass if that is the only solution. If you have any questions concerning the Traffic and Parking Regulations, ask at the Security office. There is always someone there who can answer your questions and help you with your specific problem, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a Meek.
Walk for peace On Saturday, October 20th, a “Walk for Peace” will begin at Victoria Park, Kitchener at 2:00 p.m. Many such events have taken place in recent years, however this one will not be just anot her peace rally. October 24th to 30th is United Nations Disarmament Week. It is a chance for people to express to all the nations of the world their fears and concerns about the crisis of the arms race, and their hope that somebody will do something about it. To this end, October 20th has been chosen as the day on which communities across this continent and in Europe will rally and walk for peace. Thus, October 20th is a chance for every willing Canadian to express his or her solidarity with a movement which is growing every where. For Canadians, there is another reason to walk for peace on October 20th. The peace walks being held across this country will be the official end of the Peace Petition Caravan Campaign, which began last spring. This campaign has been going on in communities all across Canada, asking Canadians to “Sign Up for Peace” by agreeing with the following proposals: 1) that the Parliament of Canada act to refuse the testing of the Cruise missile in Canada and to reject research, production, testing and transport of any nuclear weapons, their delivery systems or components in Canada. 2) that Canada be declared a Nuclear-Weapons-Free Zone in accord with similar initiatives by other nations and become actively involved in working for the multilateral de-escalation of the arms race. 3) that wasteful spending on the arms race be diverted to fund human needs so as to ensure prosperity through peace. 4) that the above-stated objectives be subject to ratification through a “free vote” in the Parliament of Canada. The peace movement has grown in recent years. It has grown because more people are realizing that we must do everything we can to end the arms race, and that if we join together our actions are s:gnificant. One person waving a sign on the street may be powerless, but a thousand or ten thousand or one hundred thousand people are not. The peace movement is millions.

“It seems that all of his travels
by William Knight Imprint staff Austrian-born Roland Strasser was an artist with wander-lust. He was born in Vienna in 1895 and left that city in 1920 for the Far East: he travelled and painted in Tibet, Outer Mongolia, China, Japan and Indonesia before settling in the U.S. in 1952. But to judge from the current Theatre Gallery show of Mr. Strasser’s work, it seems that a!! of his travels were conducted .throuyh the of National Geopages graphic.

Figures stand indifferent in the middle foreground as if caught by a tourist’s camera. The loose brushwork and paste! palette are bland and fail to capture the uniqueness of either mood or place.

Frivolous bv Linda McCord I&rint staff &known to most students as this University, Oktoberfest isn’t just parties at the Annex and the Aud. Last week the 5th Annual Oktoberfest Operetta was performed at Kitchener’s Centre in the Square. This year’s operatic choice was The Grand Duchess of Gerolstein, sponsored by Molson’s and produced by K-W Oktoberfest Inc. The Grand Duchess was written by Jacques Offenbach in 1867. The operetta is set in Germany and thus chosen for Oktoberfest. This production of The Grand Duchess was excellent. The operetta is set in the 17th Century in the Duchy of Gerolstein. The story revolves around the young Grand Duchess, and the peasant couple Fritz, the soldier, and Wanda. I The Duchess becomes infatuated with Fritz while reviewing the army and she promotes him quickly to Genera!. This frivolous act angers the present Genera!, Bourn, and upsets both Wanda and Prince Paul, a previously ignored suitor of the Duchess. Gerolstein is at war at this point. The army departs to fight the enemy while Bourn and Prince Paul plot revenge for Fritz. After the victorious battle, Fritz returns and the brand Duchess admits her passion for him. Fritz acts indifferently toward this news and makes plans to marry Wanda. The Grand Duchess is heartbroken but gives permission for the wedding. She then joins ex-Genera! Bourn and Prince Paul in their conspiracy. On the evening of the would-be assasination of Fritz, the Duchess is introduced to Baron Grog, an emissary of Prince Paul’s father. The Duchess becomes immediately infatuated and after some discussion she agrees to marry Paul, if Baron Grog remains in Gerolstein. In her state of passion the Duchess calls off the assasination but agrees that Bourn be allowed to play a practical joke on Fritz. The Grand Duchess and Prince Paul are married and on this day Fritz is viciously attacked by a jealous husband. This misunderstanding is conviently arranged by Bourn.

of the Arts gallery it is hard to get excited about Mr. Strasser as an artist of merit -even as a painter of the exotic. And one last word on the viewing space itself. It seems as if giving the “art gallery” a new name (the Theatre Gallery) will make up for its poor qualities as a place to see works. The irregular walls make viewing a torturous act. Perhaps one year this university will consider setting aside a space in which to properly exhibit art. Until then, we’!! have to suffer the cramped; zig-zag nobly known as the Theatre Gallery. The exhibition runs until November 11.

oberfest o After this, Fritz is not upset when the Duchess demotes him to a civilian and Bourn regains his title. Fritz and Wanda th en decide that they can be happy as peasants once again and the Duchess becomes more realistic about her formerly fickle infatuations. She states, “When you cannot have the one you love, try to love the one you have.” This cliched line, along with many other throughout the play, actually add rather than detract from it. The cliches are effective because the tone of the operetta is satiric. The tiny armies, outdated weapons, and fickle rulers of 17th Century Germany are ridiculed.
Both the sets and the costumes were elaborate in the production of The Grand Duchess. These aspects of the operetta serve to enhance the cast’s contribution, who were fabulous. The Grand Duchess, played by Janet Stubbs, and Genera! Bourn, played by Spiro Malas, stood out, but there were no weak actors or singers among them. From the beginning to end, the opertta was frivolously funny without being stupid. It is the type of play that is perfect to clear cluttered minds. It fills them temporarily with senseless drive!, which everyone needs once in a while.

“It was my opinion that visa students were a burden“on the system...” I: The next set of questions are about tuition fees and that sort of thing. I want you to talk about OSAP. I wonder if, as president of the-Federation of Students, you feel that OSAP is working towards its stated goal, that is, increasing the accessibility for all qualified students who are unable to afford to attend otherwise...You said that you’d like to see it go towards a grants-only program... T: Studies have shown that a grants-only program is only marginally more expensive than a grants and loan program, because although there’s a tremendously high payback on loans, there’s a tremendously high cost to administer a loans program. Not only is the government paying the interest on all those loans while the student is in university, there’s also the administration costs, the paperwork, etc., etc., the charges the bank make to cover their costs...so it’s only marginally more expensive for a grants-only program. However, I think the problem with the grants-only system is that it’s not politically palateable to the government of our time. I think they’re afraid that if they went to the public and said “We’re going to have a grants-only system” the public would scream that students have it too good already.and don’t deserve it. It’s unfortunate, because it would make a lot more sense in my opinion. I: If the Waterloo Federation of Students was to stay in OFS would you be pushing towards that idea?... T: No. CFS addressed that issue , but OFS has not... “Tuition increases are a I: You said that necessary evil. We, as students, can’t complain on one hand about the declining quality of education, which is directly related to a lack of funds, and not accept the responsibility for accepting some of these costs...Ontario is near the bottom or at the bottom of the pile in funding post-secondary education (per capita). Wouldn’t another approach be to increase government funding? T: The system needs more dollars, there’s no question about that. The one thing that everybody can agree on is that there’s enough money floating around in the system. So you can do one of two things: you either increase the amount of money in the system, or you decrease the number’of people in the system. I hope that the latter is not done, I would hope that more money would be injected in the system. I don’t think that it’s responsible to shift all of the onus onto the government. I think that they should have a majority of the onus. I don’t even think it should be a matching system -- if they agree to increase their amount of funding by twenty per cent, there will be a twenty per cent increase in tuition. There should be a more fair ratio worked out...But I think that students will have to accept an
increase in tuition -- but only in exchange for a significant increase in government funding...1 think that if students could offer a unified voice back to the government, say, Look, we will accept an increase in tuition providing that you will offer a greater interest in your funding. And use these figures to show that funding should be increased greatly, ‘because it hasn’t kept pace. Our tuition rates are very high...higher on the scale compared to where the government sits on the scale with government contributions. If we can correct both of those imbalances. I: Regarding differential fees, you said that “I think that the rights of foreign students have to be protected because of the valuable role they play on campus. The university community, in order to be a refuge for higher learning, needs the contribution made by foreign students. What higher fees in Ontario is doing is driving foreign students away, it’s urging them to go to other provinces.” Can I read from that statement that you are fog or against differential fees, and why? T: I’m opposed to them. I don’t believe that visa students should be required to pay any more tuition than regular students...Our university system is really losing (because of differential fees). I don’t think that university should be an all-white, allmale bastion of higher learning like one program that you and I can both think of on this campus, because it doesn’t have any visa students, because it’s entirely co-op, without naming any names...1 don’t see how you can call that a truly liberal educational experience. I: But I understand at one time you did support differential fees, and you’ve changed your mind. T: Yes. The reason I changed my mind was (that) I sat down and read a report that had been written by OFS.1 read the report and then I attended a workshop conducted by the research staff of OFS. It certainly opened my eyes and convinced me that I was completely wrong...It was my opinion that visa students were a burden on the system because they cost more to educate...and that these students had the ability to pay more and should be paying higher tuition, I was extremely naive and very wrong...In fact, it doesn’t cost any more money, and the amount of additional revenue generated by this higher tuition is minimal, and in my opinion not worth the hardship it inflicts on visa students, and what it denies to regular students.

LJ2 fizzles The Unforgettable Fire u2 Island Records by Carl Imprint
Davies staff
The long awaited U2 album, their fourth, has arrived, and seems to be a bit of a disappointment for most of the group’s followers. Their much ballyhooed collaboration with producer extraordinaire, Brian Eno, has not lived up to the potential of this talented group of people. The album does include a number-of memorable tracks, but the toning down of The Edge’s distinctive guitar sound and the bringing forward of Bono’s lyrics in the mix is an experiment that goes nowhere. Songs such as “Pride (In the name of love)“, which has already received considerable airplay, and “Wire”, perhaps the album’s strongest effort, can only do more for the foursome’s ever rising popularity. These songs provide the palatable blend of driving guitars and zealous lyrics that has made songs such as “New Year’s Day”, “I Will Follow” and “Sunday Bloody Sunday”, so

enjoyable to large segments of the population. However, tracks such as “Elvis Presley a’nd America”, and “Promenade” seem pointless, boring and uninspired. The first and last cuts on the second side of the album, “4th of July” and “MLK”, are definite Enoisms, but Mr. Eno and Canadian producer Daniel Lanois (who also teams up with Brian Eno on the new release, The Pearl) appear intent on producing dreamy rhythms that only make the listener think of sleep. The failure of Brian Eno to enhance the sound of U2 is the biggest disappointment of this album. Mr. Eno’s brilliant work with people such as David Byrne of the Talking Heads, David Bowie and Robert Fripp is not apparent on the Unforgettable Fire. Mr. Eno’s previous work may also have made the listener expect too much from a collaboration with U2. U2 will survive this uneven effort - the few good songs will erase the weaker songs from people’s memories by the time the next album is released. If this promising young Irish band wishes to continue its drive toward superstardom, their next effort will have to get back to placing more emphasis on the Edge’s guitar, for this is their bread and butter. As well, their lyrics will have to continue in

Wilcox’s wild blues Bad Reputation David
Wilcox
Capitol
Records
by Rob Imprint
Clifton staff
Look who’s back; our very own homegrown class clown, David Wilcox, with his latest album, Bad Reputation. If you’ve been following this blues-bellowing rauncher since his first album you’ll know that the title is indicative of the album’s lyrical tone. And who else but Mr. Wilcox hypnotizes a crowd into boogieing down to everything from a song about talking to a cactus, to words of praise for the grind, to a trip downtown or uptown or even to the zoo. Reputution is right up the alleyway of Mr. Wilcox’s last album, My Eyes Keep Me In Trouble. Although, musically it lacks the punk of his first album, it still has that good old blues-boogie-rock which he’s known for. Added to that are “Can’t Take 11 Anymore”, having an Elvis-like ring, and “Play on Your Harp”, which has a spiritual feel to it.
Although catchy and provocative, Mr. Wilcox continues the legacy of the hedonistic lifestyle he promotes. “Brain Fever” wins the year’s award for the most moving lyrics. There are only two words.. .“Brain Fever”. Oh, and by the way, it’s good to see that Wilcox has continued to share with us his carefully thought out philosophy and beliefs. “Now
I couida had religion on this very day. But the women and the whiskey around me would not let me pray.” Poor, victimized David. .Don’t let this put you off. The music’s wild and the ideas give you a chance to see the thoughts that can go through a man’s mind, but if you take it anymore seriously than that, you’ll probably be in for a “Bad Reputation” yourself.

University of Waterloo campus, the airwaves bring you the diverse sounds of CKMS. Having grown from a campus radio club in 1970, CKMS is now a licenced fm broadcasting station with a wide range of programming on air 24 hours a day. Our musical programmes explore the edge sounds in many styles -- jazz, reggae, electronic, new wave, punk, hard-core and forms not-yetnamed, from Canada, the U.S. and around the world -as well as traditional forms such as chamber music, folk, and big band old favourites. CKMS programming includes shows broadcast in several languages. Media communication forms an important dynamic in cultural development and the alternative radio format to share music, information, literature and current events of special interest is reflected in a number of feature programmes including Black Music, For Women, Gay News and Views, Good News (contemporary Christian music) and Leaping Lesbians. Each day you can hear news, campus and community events, and in-depth coverage of various topics of current social concern. And CKMS takes an alternative approach -- these programmes are not just for the community and students, they are by them.

eatery
by Shayla Gunter Imprint staff Where do you go if you want to eat in a trolley car with a giant iron tricycle and a buffalo head hanging over you? T.J. Applebee’s? You win! Since it is my favourite restaurant in Toronto, I decided to share some of its wonderful attributes with this school. The service at T.J.‘s is quick and the staff is courteous. The main attraction, of course, is the food. We tried three appetizers. The Stix Snax, which consisted of four tender cubes of beef, cooked to your personal taste in a lightly spiced teriyaki sauce. were brought to us on a wooden skewer and shared the plate with crispy potato _ wedges. Pretty good. The fried mozzarella was absolutely gooey and delicious. The crispy butter surrounding the cheese sticks was not greasy and had just the right amount of spices to tantalize your tastebuds. We also tried the broccoli cheese soup and found it to be a steaming bowl of cream of broccoli soup with a small glob of cheddar cheese in the centre. Tasty; but not overly impressive. The main menu is extensive and varied. The fettucini and shrimp marinara dinner contained twenty to twenty five small to medium shrimp which were placed on a bed of firm, but not undercooked, fettucini noodles and had a marinara sauce that was just a touch too peppery.

The broccoli quiche was fluffy, light, contained an ample amount of broccoli and had a mild cheesy taste. The quiche was firm and the cheese was not gooey as on pizza. The meal included a fruit salad which containeci more melon than any other type of fruit. It didn’t particularly please us. My chicken asparagus potato skin dinner was delicious and filling but had few asparagus pieces compared to the great amount of chicken I received. All of the other main courses we tried proved to be “tasteworthy” but some could have used more spices in some places and less in others. Most meals include a side salad, garlic bread and/or a jumbo onion ring. Dessert-wise, the mud pie is for chocolate lovers. Coffee and chocolate ice cream drowned in hot fudge sauce-MMMM! The amaretto cheesecake is good, but not almondy enough. The chocolate brandy mousse on the other hand, is completely orgasmic. My personal favourite items on the menu are the “specialty drinks”. The I ce Cream Sandwich, for example, contains ice cream, milk, kahlua dnd Oreo cookies mashed up. Yum!!! General manager Ross Simpson says that two new 1oc;itions will be opening in Toronto within the next ten to twenty months. There may also be one opening here in Waterloo! One can expect to spend $8 - 12 per person for dinner. It’s in the Village by the Grange and is easy to get to by subway.

Christy (Lucinda Dickey) is the possessed in this movie, which is to say that the disembodied spirit of a dead Ninja periodically inhabits her body, which he then uses to avenge himself on those who killed him (the police). Matters aren’t helped any by the fact that Christy happens to be dating one of the officers responsible for the Ninja’s death (Jordan Bennett). Truthfully, it’s refreshing to see a woman

hard to conceive of anyone with either of them who would resort to such cinematic plagiarism. The world has no use for movies like Ninja III, movies which portray police 1as incompetent buffoons and which glorify needless violence (the body count here is well above fifty) and it really is something of a shame that the money wasted on this piece of refuse wasn’t used to create a product that was a bit more entertaining.

“It has always been my dream to do an album with the classical masters,” said a breathless but animated Andre Gagnon. He had just arrived at his spacious Quebec dwelling, prior to this phone conversation, slightly fatigued from a Western tour, but eager to continue his current repertoire. “In December, I go to the studio. I am writing now. The album should be in the stores by February, early March. It is a piano solo.” he said eagerly. “Just me, the great masters and the piano. C’est tout. It is something I have always wanted to do, and now I can share it with others. I just love it.”

Last spring, for the first time in his life, Mr. Gagnon played the classical masters in front of an audience. He immediately fell in love with the romance, charm, and beauty of the composers. “I think I forgot in the last ten years, that I am also a pianist. I wanted to get back to the piano on my own,” said Mr. Gagnon proudly. In the past, Mr. Gagnon has experimented with every genre of music from pop to jazz to the classics. He vehemently prefers the classics . Mr. Gagnon believes in giving his audience a full evening’s entertainment, and

Singing in ‘the rain...(we won!’ 1 by Mike Upmalis Imprint Sports There is a remark attributed to the Toronto coaching staff, it may not be true, but it certainly summed up Toronto’s attitude going into last Saturday’s October 13th game: “Waterloo is the ..:1..,.- l:,;,, .a_ r.th,....,;,,a olr\*rA., ‘.nc,‘.l\n ” \ X. / P.

The final score, 25-24 for Waterloo, is all the more impressive in light of Waterloo’s offensive record so far this season. In four season games, Waterloo has managed to score 10 points, and only four of them on offense. Waterloo has never really caught fire on offense, this despite a collection of talented players. This time it w’as different. Perry Stoneman and Tony lantorno started the ball rolling early on and Waterloo never looked back. Perry Stoneman played in only, his second game this year. this . due to a pre-seasonligament injury,. In thegameagainst Guelph last week. in a final play, he injured his knee again and it looked like that might have been the last game for the season. With the help of the trainer and a little luck he managed to dress for the game last Saturday. Playing on a suspect knee, he chalkedup over 157 yards. 128 of them rushing in 28 carries. Stoneman scored all three of Waterloo’s TDs on carries. Iantorno displayed what has been rare form this season offense with skill and great commanding the Waterloo composure. Iantono, who only completed a pass in the second half of the game against Guelph the previous week, completed his first two passes, and on his first possession, marched Waterloo down field to scoring position. Waterloo never looked back.
Waterloo 25, Toronto 24 Iantorno went 11 for 19 on the day for 128 yards, and combined with the rushing of Stoneman, Dario Pretto and Mike Arsenault Waterloo’s offense chalked up 285 yards in total. lantorno played a little long ball, including one 45 yard strike. Ken Adams received four times for 56 yards, Dean Cebulski twice for 47 and Dario Pretto took a pass in the back field but Toronto picked him on the play. Waterloo’s offensive line played like a wall giving lantorno time and allowed no sacks. Only one play resulted in a loss of yards for the entire day and that was just for four yards. One of the brightest stats from the day were the turnovers. lantorno threw no interceptions, a problem in previous games, and two fumbles by the Warriors took the Argo bounce back into their hands. Waterloo on the other hand intercepted four Toronto passes and all left Waterloo in great position either to score or to put Toronto back deep in their own territory. Waterloo’s special teams did better on the day. Jim MacMiZan punted I I times to average 30 on the- day but coverage of the return held Toronto to minimal gains. This game marks the first where the other team’s defense has not scored against the Warriors. Waterloo’s kickoff return team did well on the day with Mike White with a 22 yard return, Mike Arsenault on two returns chalked up 64 yards, one a 42 yard romp down field, and Sandy Michalachki dropped with a one yard return, that from a Blues short kickoff try in the second quarter. Waterloo on punt returns netted three yards on four Toronto punts, Mike White getting 5 on two tries and Rob Kent losing2 yards on the-other two punts. Sandy Michalachki, who probably has had an interception in every game, along with Pat Marchione, Dave Boston, and Bohdan Washchuck found themselves on the receiving end ofa Toronto pass.

In other game action (upper right photo), Waterloo’s dej2w.w stops Toronto Varsity Blues cold; (centre right photo) Kent Adams comes back to block jbr Perry Stoneman; (bottom right photo) Pat Marchione runs the bail back ajier an interception. Waterloo’s offense managed to hold the rushing attack of Toronto to only 49 yards. Toronto had a strong passing attack though, they chalked up 298 yards through the air. The Varsity Blues actually outdistanced Waterloo on offense, but never earned the points for the win. Toronto started their second string QB .against Waterloo, Dan Healy. Healy on his first play passed for an early TD on a Waterloo defensive miscue and a little later in the first quarter settled in for a second. The Toronto offense stalled after that and Healy after going 5 for 16 was pulled for Toronto starter John Finlayson. Finlayson went 17 for 29, a quality performance in a losing effort. Toronto clearly underestimated the strength of Waterloo’s offense and defense. Twice on third and yards plays they faked a field goal attempt to go for the first down, making it only once. On their second TD, with the score 16-8 they faked a kicked convert attempt to go for a two point conversion, which failed. The chance for just one point would come back to haunt them later. In the dying seconds of the first half, Michalachki intercepted a field goal that closed off the half at 16-l 1 for Toronto. Waterloo outscored Toronto in the second half, 14 to 8. Toronto had an opportunity to tie the game, when, in the last minutes of the fourth quarter, a TD brought the Blues to within a single point of the Warriors. Needing a win to keep in the
Rugby side top Oktoberfest by Sandy Townsend Imprint staff The Warriors celebrated the Oktoberfest weekend in appropriate fashion as they waltzed to a 42-O victory over the hapless WLU Golden Hawks. Waterloo scored enough points for the game to be given the unoffcial title of “try-fest”. The large and appreciative audience roared its approval every time the Warriors scored. There were many spectators who began celebrating at halftime when the victory was no longer in doubt. It was simply a case of the Warriors having too much power and finesse for the Golden Hawks. Waterloo scored tries every which way possible. They scored their points by playing strong basic rugby, by using trick plays, and by taking advantage of Laurier errors. There was no way that Laurier was going to stop the Waterloo juggernaut, except by attempt&g -to injure the Warriors and. even this, they couldn’t get right. Winger John Butcher opened the floodgates when he scored the Warriors first try after only 10 minutes. He galloped down

Waterloo’s offensive star of the game, along with Warrior athlete of the week, and OUAA athlete of the week, was, of course, Perry Stoneman.

with
the left wing on a counterattack from a poor Laurier kick. The next points came from the talented toe of kicker Paul Toon who made two penalty goals to take the score to 10-O. Rene Fleming and John Motherwell added two more tries before the halftime whistle. Motherwell’s try was probably his easiest one ever. He intercepted an errant pass at halfway line and streaked unmolested into the Laurier endzone. Paul Toon added one conversion to make the score 20-O at the interval. In the second half, Laurier almost faded completely out of the picture. Waterloo scored four more tries and should possibly have had more. Scoring for the Warriors were Bill Beldham, Paul Toon, John Motherwell (his second) and Ian Hart. For some strange reason, Toon’s kicking abiiity deserted him and he was replaced by the Warriors’ diminutive scrumhalf Dan lngoldsby. Dan converted 3 of 4 tries to add 6 points to the Warrior totals. Laurier resorted to thuggery late in the second half in a vain attempt to get back in the game. Peter Keir and Paul Coburn had to be replaced but both will be available for the return match this weekend against the Western Mustangs. The
Waterloo plays tomorrow in London in Western’s Homecoming game. Western, smarting after a loss to the surprising Guelph Gryphons, will face a Waterloo that seems to have come from an extended pre-season into exciting form. The game will be on Channel 11 (check your local listings). Waterloo’s (fill in the blank) Warrior Band has been invited to take part in the Western homecoming parade and will be at the game site entertaining the masses. The band after three TD laps around the field has gone into training for the game tomorrow. Waterloo finishes up the season a week from tomorrow with an away game against Laurier. The always exciting game could theoretically/ decide a playoff berth between these two teams, all depending on how the Varsity blues finish up the season and on the games tomorrow.
try-fest Warriors responded to Laurier’s pugilistic efforts by scoring tries and won the game where it counts, on the scoreboard. The final tally was Waterloo 42, Laurier 0. In other happenings last. Saturday, October 13th, the Trojans lost two heart-breaking games in the UW Oktoberfest Rugby Tournament. They lost a squeaker to Laurier 3-O and then to the U W Alumni squad. The eventual tournament winners were the Newtonbrook Old Boys from Toronto who were captained by ex-Warrior Dave “Big Guy” Hunter. The Alumni team, who were led by such ageless vets as Tom “Jets” Horlor and Phil “Golden Toe” White, ended up in second place by defeating Laurentian in a playoff. With the victory, the Warriors stretched their record to four wins and only one defeat, and that leaves them in an excellenJ position to make the playoffs this year. If they defeat Western and Mat in the final two games they are almost guaranteed a spot. They travel to London this weekend for a match against the powerful Mustang squad, kickoff time Saturday, October 20th is 12 noon.

Fan hooliganism
This past weekend, the Detroit Tigers captured the 1984 World Series. Their victory set off a party and celebration quite unlike any that city has had in the past 15 years. All throughout the Series, and especialy during the minutes immediately after the final out, the Tigers revealed themselves to be a team composed of class individuals and run in a first-class manner. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for their fans. In North America, it has become common for the fans of the victorious team to charge the field to congratulate their heroes. Then, the fans usually rip up the turf, steal the seats, and destroy anything they can get their hands on. r In that regard, the celebration in Detroit was quite normal, at least until some neanderthals started to throw parts of the baseball field at the T.V. announcers’s booth. This display of athletic prowess, while pretty stupid, was petty when compared to the victory celebration which was taking place outside the stadium. The rooting inside the stadium had turned to looting outside the stadium. The final tally was, three police cars and two taxicabs burned, thirty-four people arrested on various charges (including one of assaulting a police horse), sixteen injured, eight store windows shattered, and one man found dead in the downtown area (it is not known, however, if his death is connected to the victory celebrations). It would be easy to dismiss what happened in Detroit by
throwing Detroit”. violence
our hands in the air and saying, “Well, after all, it is Unfortunately, this kind of hooliganism and fan is spreading throughout North America.
Accompanying the riots in Detroit was a similar, though thankfully tamer happening in Kingston, Ontario, home to one of Canada’s finest post-secondary institutions, Queen’s University. There, over eight hundred students and alumni blocked traffic along University Avenue Friday and Saturday nights. The final tally in Kingston after the weekend was three arrests and forty-four liquor-related charges. Less than a month ago, Queen’s students caused over $4,000 damage at a football game in Montreal at which Queen’s beat McGill, 59-30. Last Saturday in Kingston, there was another football game. This time Queen’s defeated the University of Ottawa, 52-l. It appears to be that a combin&ion of a victory by the team that the hooligans support and alcohol triggers a violent reaction which results in large street parties and near riots. There is little that the authorities can do to stop the combination from mixing, the best that they can do is to contain the result. Fan hooliganism in North America is no where near the problem that it is in Britain and let us hope that it never comes close.

decision. In a relaxed manner, he talked openly about his reasons for returning; “Basically, 1 really wanted to come back because 1 felt I could help the team, but the main reason 1 came back was that John Birch was returning as the Head Coach.” Last year the team moved positions in the UP six rankings and narrowly missed a play off berth. The return of Steve Cracker and the improvement of the team clinch a playoff spot this year. Steve’s role is in both his scoring and leadership abilities. The personal goals that Steve sets reflect his abilities. He said, “I’d love to score twenty goals, and get more asists to help the other players on the team score.” Mr. Cracker would be happy to see Jay Green, another Warrior player, go over twenty goals this season and would like to help make it I happen. ! The idea of a team must also extend to off the ice and away from practice time. Steve lives with two other Warrior players, Peter Crouse and Blair McArthur. Steve says, “1 feel the team’s success on the ice is related to it’s relationships off the ice. Living with guys from the team, we can talk about i3almost everything together.” ” He doesn’t feel any d, pressure, despite the demands I’of being the leading returning 1veteran and a vital link in the teams offensive plan. Steve is “... just going to do the best I I can and help the team in any way 1 can.” I Steve thinks the prospects /for the team this season are ivery bright. L,ack of iexperience playing defence will be a factor at first but early exposure against strong lItearns will be a trial be fire for ithe Warrior team that will /only strengthen them. ’ Highlights for the coming season will include games f,against Western, Laurier, and :Toronto (last year’s CIAU campions). I With the exciting brand of hockey being offered this season, Steve Cracker and the team expect that the number of fans should go up as the ,word gets around.

Waterloo conies from behind by Dave Hemmerich Imprint st%Yf Despite spirited second round play, the Waterloo Warrior golf team finished short of victory in the Warrior-hosted O.U.A.A. finals held at Westmount Golf and Country Club, October 1 lth and 12th. Guelph Gryphons, led by individual winner Neil Hayworth, topped the field by a comfortable 14 stroke after an exceptional 1st round team margin performance. The Warriors were low 2nd round team but could not overcome a twenty shot deficit after first day’s play over the rolling, 6,700 yard, par 73 tree-lined track. Steve Bain played exceptional golf and paced the Warriors with a pair of 76’s. Bain, in his final year at Waterloo, explained “It was much easier to play after I’d overcome the initial pressure of qualifying for a position on the 5-man team. 1 had tried unsuccessfully my previous years to make the team but when I did (qualify) this year, 1 just went out there and enjoyed my/self. All parts of my game were pretty solid.” Bain finished as 2nd-low individualist, tied with Paul Fritz of Laurier. Coaches Carl Totzke and Gord with the team’s 2nd place comeback first round of play had left Waterloo Toronto, and Western tied for 3rd with 2 day totals of 638, 3 behind Guelph.

so.ccer playoff
by Kevin Phillips Bong The soccer Warriors found themselves in hot water again as they failed to take the full four points from last week’s two games. After trampling a demoralized Brock team, 5-1, on Tuesday, October 9th, they came up flat against a strong Windsor side on Saturday, October 13th, Tuesday at Brock found the Warriors very up for the game, and Brock very down. Brock has yet to win a game this year after a semisuccessful year in 1983, and looked very weak without their regular keeper, who is absent due to injury. Waterloo got on the scoreboard early when Liam MacFarlane drove a penalty shot under the Brock keeper, after a Waterloo forward was pulled down in the penalty area. The Warriors went ahead 2-O when they caught the Brock team upfield on a corner-kick. Waterloo’s Gary Cooper found forward Peter Gardiner alone at the centre spot, as Brock pushed forward for a corner-kick. Gardiner beat

the charging Brock keeper at about the 35 yead line and walked the ball into the net from there. Gardiner made it 3-O when his shot from 20 yards skidded on the wet grass under the Brock goaltender. In the second half, Brock came on a little stronger and when the got one back Waterloo defence failed to clear the ball effectively, into the back of the net to make it 4-l. Gary Cooper put the game away when he potted a pass from 1-orster on a nice play that originated in the Waterloo half with a sweeping from cross-field pass MacE‘arlane. Against Windsor, it was an entirely different story for the Warriors. Waterloo looked nervous and flat, and , true to form, allowed an early goal, to start down 1-O. The Warrior defence allowed a Windsor forward to line up a shot near the net and put it past keepter Tim Walker. Mark Forster drew the teams even at 1, when he surprised the Windsor defence by taking a quick f‘reekick, and putting the ball past
an unprepared Windsor goalkeeper. It appeared that Waterloo was going lo get out of the first half tied with the more effective Windsor side, but .with just 5 minutes remaining. the Waterloo keeper, Tim Walker, began to see double and Waterloo was forced to put a fullback in net, as their backup goaltender didn’t make the trip with the team. Windsor scored shortly thereafter on a corner-kick to capitalise on the Waterloo predicament; a goal that took much out of the team. In the second half, Walker returned to the net, but the Warriors found themselves fighting an uphill battle. They moved the ball well for about fifteen minutes of the half, but failed to mount any substantial attack. Windsor pat ked its goalmouth on defence, and broke quickly on offence, allowing Waterloo little penetration and at the same time looking quite dangerous. Windsor added two more before the game was over, and may have scaled Waterloo’s play-off hopes.

The Athenas had outstanding performance from their sweeper, Beth Kewley, halfback Sylvia yd, and halfback Shari Carte . “In both the Toron o and f York games, we allowed the opponents to score 2 or 3 goals inside the first 15 minutes.

another ball in the Waterloo net to make the score 5-3 in U W’s favour. The third quarter saw three goals from both sides, with Waterloo’s powerhouse John Saabas putting in a pair and Jon Tyson contributing one to bring the score to 8-6. With a quarter remainilng and a two point lead, all that the Warriors had to do was to continue playing the way they had been all along, and that they did. After Toronto scored in the beginning of the last quarter, it only took eight seconds for Stan Denhoed to retaliate and keep Toronto two goals behind. The sequence continued to the end of the game, with goals from Kevin Schofield and John Saabas that gave Waterloo its second win of the season. According to John Saabas, the team played well together, they accomplished what they set out to do. The rookie goalies Chris Norley and Scott Murray must also be acknowledged in their performances on October 13th. With yet another week of practice behind them, the Waterpolo Warriors will be travelling to Western and York. Keep it up, Waterloo.
by Bill Pawlowsky On October 13th, the Waterpolo Warriors travelled to McMaster for their first official tournament, and returned home with a loss and a win. In their first game, Waterloo lost to McMaster, the defending O.U.A.A. champions, 17-3. Yet this defeat did not demoralize the Warriors, as they went on to defeat Toronto, 1 l-9. In a pre-game address, player-coach John Saabas emphasized the importance of communication amongst players, good passes and a tight defense for the games slated for that day, particularly the McMaster game. Playing this type of game, Waterloo could minimize its mistakes that McMaster would definitely capitalize on. in the first game against McMaster this approach worked extremely well and limited McMaster to scoring two goals in the first quarter; yet the following quarters were not as strong for UW. Playing a man short on two occasions during the second quarter facilitated McMaster in extending their lead to 8-O. Thirty-three seconds into the third quarter, a goal by Stan Denhoed put UW on the score board. It wasn’t until the fourth quarter that UW scored it’s final two goals, when John Saabas put one by the McMaster goal keeper, followed by a second one just over a minute later. Although defeated by McMaster, the Warriors reflected on the game and considered it to be a good learning experience, an experience which they used well in defeating Toronto after having an hour break between games. Unlike the game against McMaster, Waterloo wasted no time in getting on the scoreboard against Toronto. After a minute of play, UW achieved an ejection of a Toronto player and, a second after the ejection, Waterloo’s captain, Kevin Schofield, scored the first goal of the game. The second goal came a minute after the first, as Stan Denhoed whistled one by the Toronto goal keeper to make it 2-0, Waterloo. Yet Toronto did not remain off the scoreboard for very long. With the ejection of Waterloo’s rookie defenseman, Keith Beckley, Toronto capitalized and made the score 2-l Waterloo. For the remainder of the first quarter Toronto was to remain at one, while U W went on to collect three more goals. The first of these goals was scored by last year’s team captain and seasoned veteran, Jon Tyson (who has made arrangements to play for the team despite being on a work-term in North Bay). The following goals were scored by John Saabas. Although Toronto kept Waterloo from scoring in the second quarter, they capitalized on a man-advantage situation and put

by Teresa Brzozowski basketball squad Warrior Basketball - The Warrior started their pre-season off with an overpowering 96-63 romp over the K-W Titans. Coach McCrae felt that the highlights of the game were the defensive intensity of the team, the relaxed, confident play of Paul Boyce and Randy Norris, and the strength of the players off the bench. Warrior Hockey - Waterloo’s hockey team finished off the exhibition season with a 5-l loss to the University of Manitoba Bisons. The experience of playing a tough team may have geared them up for a season win against the RMC Redmen. The 6-5 win saw strong efforts from both veterans and rookies. Waterioo plays this weekend in the Waterloo Micron tournament. The first game is on Saturday with Wilfrid Laurier playing Concordia at 6:30. Waterloo plays Regina at 9:30. The winners play Sunday at 4:30, and the consolation final is earlier at 1:30. All games are played at Columbia lcefield. Admission is part of the Season ticket plan, and all are welcome.

Perry Stoneman - Football Perry is a fourth year Co-op Math student who attended Eastwood Collegiate in Kitchener, Ontario. He is currently playing in his fourth year as a running back and is also one of the Warrior captains this year. Perry sustained a serious knee injury in the third offensive series of the team’s exhibition game against Carleton on Sept. 8. He returned to action four weeks later against Guelph wearing a specially fitted knee brace. Last Saturday against the Universitv of‘ Toronto Blues, Perry had quite a productive afternoon. He rushed 28 times gaining 128 yards and scored three touchdowns on runs of 3, 8, and 30 yards. He becomes the first Warrior to score three touchdowns in a game since Gord McLellan ran three punts back for touchdowns against McGill in 1968. In addition Perry caught four passes for 44 yards and was successful on 800/ of his blocking assignments. His constant input to this game gave the Warriors the push they needed to come up with a victory.

CR important Dates
by Sammy Singlet After two weeks absence from the University of Waterloo, Sammy and his crystal ball have returned. Some of those old predictions have run astray, although in some instances it is early to tell. In the end, SHlvvv\Y may have to throw the crystal ball away, or give it to Ag who is under intensive prediction training. Ag may be using the crystal ball quite a lot, as SAMMY is foggy after two weeks of powerfesting. The Niners and On Probation have managed to jump into first place in the A league. (SAMMY was correct on this one!) This Sunday they will play each other for the top spot, SAMMY is predicting a tight win by On Pro (this is still a biased opinion). The biggest surprise of the term has been the Geoknobs (right, Bruce!). They actually have won two games! The rest of the teams in A league have not made it to the win column as of yet. SAMMY has come up with a totally new TOP 8 for the B league. The TOP 8 is alot easier to predict after a few games. However, the crystal ball was correct in a few cases. The teams with A league potential are: Fly-in Eyes, Basketcases, Spurt, The Vagrants, Account ‘Ants’, Dirty Dawgs, Super Slammers and the Walking Wounded. It is hoped that these teams will bring some fresh blood into a very weak A league next winter. SAMMY won’t tell anybody about how correct he was with his predictions, he isn’t too impressed with himself this very slow Monday morning (post-fest Monday). The C league is shaping up just the way SAMMY has predicted. Every team with a provocative and interesting name has managed to win the first of its games - except for the Gumbies. The W5 Wildbunch, the Beaver Patrol, Buckyland, “S” Courts and the Frosh Busters are the dominating forces in the league. (Until they play one another!). SAMMY will return, same time, same channel, next week to update the progress in the CR Men’s Basketball League.
Slo-Pitch Tournament Diane Brown Despite the weather being a little on the cold side, the Mixed Slo-pitch Tournament two weeks ago was a success. In the A Flight Division, T.T.B. were victorious over the lrresponsibles by a score of 16 to 12. In Flight B, St. Paul’s narrowly escaped with the championship)ver the Brew Jays with a score of 11 to 10. C Flight saw St. Jerome’s 1 whip St. Paul’s 2 by a score of 12 to 7. Congratulations to all participants. A special thank you goes to the dedicated team, the Fun Club, who dragged themselves onto the field at 9:00 am Saturday despite their “condition”. Way to go!
Campus Ret Awards by Megan Smith The Social/Awards Committee of CRAC council is looking into the present Campus Ret awards system. As it exists now, the awards given out are individual “Winits” which are distributed to winning teams. There are several “retired” trophies which could - if there is interest - be put back into use. A survey is planned which would allow UW students to give their input and preferences on the subject. If you have ideas which could make the survey itself better, please submit them to the Campus Ret office (PAC 2040). The survey will be distributed to CR teams within the next couple of weeks. If you would like to participate but are not presently on a team, extra copies of the survey will be available in PAC 2040.

Both teams continued to play aggressively through two ten-minute overtime periods but the score still remained at l-l.

-Three days later, footsore and weary from working the two previous nights in a barely respectable bar in the West End, but all the richer from all the gratuities she’d received,.Juiia -” -* reappeared ^ --*- -y^u*- in his office, wearing a battle.e worthy smile. He looked up from his desk-as the sound of her entrance, and his eyebrows shot up in surprise. “Well, Miss Thonraby, you’ve come back to try again!” . “Yes I have, and I. hope you’ll keep your word. I’ve found a job, and I have four hundred pounds to prove it, and a note from %my employer which states quite clearly that he’s willing to vouch for me. Now,” her eyes glittered with the challenge, “can you refuse me my loan?” \ He smiled, not quite as condescendingly as he h had at their other meeting. “Well, you’re a spunky little thing, aren’t you?” he commented dryly. Shuffling his papers ‘about on his desk, he said, “I suppose, since I almost promised, there’s nothing to do but give you the loan.” Over Julia’s audible sigh of relive, he cautioned, “But I hope you’ll use it wisely, and if there’s any trouble with the repayments -” “Oh, I assure you Mr. Brockhurst, there won’t be any trouble. You’ll never be sorry about this, and that’s a promise.” He studied the deep green eyes, the funny lump on her nose, the bruises and bandages about her person, the charming way her head was cocked to one side, as though she were a beagle, and thought to himself that he was already sorry, deeply sorry that he’d mei, this beautiful waif. He couldn’t allow himself to become involved with thisdelightful but penniless orphan, a girl who so blatantly went against the rules set down in his father’s will; which stated that he would not inherit a cent if he married a woman of no finacial consequtince... “I said, when can I have the money? I’d like to pay my tuition as soon as possible, so I’ll be assured of getting a spot in the classes.” He shook himself from his thoughts and smiled again, this time so charmingly that Julia felt a funny flutter in her heart’and a touch of nauseating excitement, “You may have the loan whenever you’d like it, provided you let me take you out to dinner first.” Julia’s mouth opened in protest, but then she looked again at him, and saw not the empty, malicious gleam his gray eyes had reflected on her earlier visit, but a warm depth that revealed more of him than he would have wanted her to see. “My job,” she protested weakly, “it would hardly be right from me to take the night off so soon after they’ve hired me, and I have nothing to wear...” her fingers fumbled at the folds of her skirt, accidentally tearing off her pocket. . He rose and came around the desk, offering her a hand to-help her out of the chair. “You just let me take care of everything”, he said softly, holding on to her hand a little longer than was necessary, so that Julia could feel the clamminess of his grasp as he led her to the door. “I’ll pick you up at eight o’clock tonight.” She tried in vain to protest again, but found herself helpless against the charm of his smile. “All righty,” she assented, “I’ll see you then.” Julia stumbled out of the bank, her mind swirling with all the things he had said, and ran to catch the bus home, jumping in as it was pulling away and ripping the sleeve of her blouse right off. Julia studied herself anxiously in the mirror before opening the door to Tony, but his enthusiasm as he “entered the room told her she need not have worried: “Julia, how lovely you are!“, he exclaimed. “I knew that dress would look wonderfu1 on you.” Julia fiddled nervously with the jade -green evening
gown that had arrived by special delivery that afternoon, bearing a’ note asking her to wear it that night. “Mr. Brockhurst, you really shouldn’t have done this. I -” He waved a dismissive hand. “Of course I should have. , You said yourself you had nothing to wear.” “But the size, how did you know what size I would wear? It fits perfectly.” . He raised his eyebrows until Julia thought they would stick to the hair hanging across his forehead, “I have some experience in dressing women. It was a lucky guess.” Julia refrained from thinking about the implications of this statement, and looked distractedly about her small flat, hoping he wouldn’t see the bones that were strewn about her bed. “I’m sorry I have nothing to offer you by way of refreshment. I don’t usually drink myself, and -” 1 “Don’t worry aboutthat. We’ll have something when we get to the restaurant. The sight of you is enough’ , refreshment for me right now.” Julia blushed at these words, of praise. “Mr. Brockhurst -” “Please’ Julia,” he interrupted, “you must call Tne Tony. I want to be your friend, and friends don’t usually address each other so formally. You do need friends in ’ London, don’t you?” ” Julia smiled sadly. Nothing could be more true! “All . c”
right, Tony it is.” Satisfied, he said, “Now that we’ve~ settled that, I think we should go have dinner. I’m ready for something to eat by now, and I bet you are too.” r Julia took the arm he offered her and went downstairs with him to his waiting car, a sleek sports model. After several false starts, during which he rammed the car in L front of him, and then backed over the curb onto a pile of trash, thecar sped -off noiselessly into the night, and wound up at what appeared to Julia to be a very expensive restaurant. In broken French, Tony ordered a bottle of wine and ’ roast duck for both of them. Julia was hardly a fussy girl, but she did thinks she would have preferred a slightly * drier wine, and something a little less-fatty than roast ’ duck, but said nothing. They hardly touched their dinners, probably because of the grease, but instead talked incessantly, gazing into each other’s eyes and becoming lost in their own private world. Several other diners watched enviously as the attractive couple, unable to pay attention totheir meal, poked each other in the face with their forks. Once, Tony laughed, and put ’ his hand on hers, and Julia blushed, trying to pull hers away, but when he would not release it, she stopped struggling and enjoyed the pleasure the contact of his sweaty hand gave her.
worry about the tip, the gentleman’s already taken care of it.” Julia smiled at his as she closed the door, put the flowers in a jug and opened the note. As she read it, the blood from her cuts streaming over the paper, she stumbled into a chair, tears welling up in her eyes before she could ston them. “Julia - Your loan will be deposited as promised, but I must never see’you again. You must address all your questions and repayments to my colleague, David Goldberg. Please forgive me, Tony.” t What had she’ done? Only now, faced with his rejection, did Julia realize how very much Tony had come to mean to her in the short time she had known him. Everything about him, even his lips, were dear to her, and she didn’t know how she would get along without him. . For the next few weeks, she sank i depair, dragging herself to work each home weary and depressed. She saw n respect Tony’s wishes and never bother him again, but Julia found herself losing more and more sleep, until she began to forget even the most basic things. Finally, after her employer dismissed her on a particularly bad night, Julia came home to her flat and began to pack up the few things she owned, deciding to
i go back to the convent and leave the loan untouched. She left the dress Tony had given her in the closet, knowing she would never we& it again. As she was dragging ‘her suitcase to the door, there was a terrible pounding, and she heard Tony’s distracted voice shouting her name. She opened the door mindlessly, only to be scooped into Tony’s arms and spun around the room. “Oh thank God you’re all right!” he cried. “When ‘your employer told me what had happened, I was afraid you were going to do something terrible.” When he set her down she gazed at him sadly. “Tony, whatever has happened? I thought you never wanted to see me again!” He jumped up and down in excitement, hitting his head on a low beam. “That was when I didn’t know who you really were! Tell me Julia, have you no idea who your parents were?” * I

Presently, it was well past midnight, and a solitary bus boy was sweeping noisily around their table, tossing the larger pieces of food and napkins into their laps in an apparent hint that they should leave. Tony laughed as he scraped a piece of broccoli au gratin from his trouser leg and tossed it at the boy’s head, then helped Julia from the table and drove her home. . He paused at her doorway and his eyes, which had - been bright with wine, suddenly smouldered with something Julia was afraid to understand. “Oh Julia, Julia,” he moaned, “can’t you see that I’m nearly out of my mind? Ever since you crept into my office that day like some sort of derelict, filthy and ragged and smelling like sheep manure, I’ve thought of nothing but you. I ,must have you, can’t you see that?” Julia’s eyes fluttered at him in confusion, only to see his lips tdescending on hers. She had just enough time before he kissed her to think of how big his lips looked at such an angle, as though he were some sort of fish, maybe a carp. Dismissing these thoughts as his lips took possession of hers, and unable to fight the power he had lover her, Julia wrapped her arms around his neck and ikissed him until he pulled away abruptly. “I must go,” he said breathlessly. “I will open an account for you tomorrow, and deposit your loan,” With these words, he disappeared down the stairs, leaving Julia confused in her doorway, where she stood for a few moments before {Joing to bed. The next morning was one’she would never forget. !!5he was awakened by a furious pounding on her door, and opened it to find a messenger holding a huge bunch of red roses, grinning widely at her. “Are you Julia Thornaby?“, he asked. “Yes, yes I am,” she answered. “Then these are for you,” he stated, handing her the roses and the attached note in just such a way that the -.

She shook her head, confused by his obvious “No, the Mother Superior always told me enthusiasm. that it was better for me if I didn’t know.” He sighed with exasperation. “I believe that! I had to drag it out of her myself. But oh Julia, how could she have kept it from you! If I’d known about the half million pounds you’ll be inheriting within a few short months, I never would have had to hurt you the way I did.” Julia sat in a chair, feeling as though she would faint if she didn’t.
