by Carl Davies Imprint staff There is “no question that for seven dollars and fifty cents, students haven’t gotten much for their money”, according to Federation of Students president Tom Allison, when he was asked about-the possiblity of refunding the money students have paid this term for Federation Hall. At the Federation Board of Directors meeting, that took place yesterday at midday, the possibility of refunding some or all of the money that students paid for the new student pub facility was “an item on the agenda” said Mr. Allison, on Wednesday night. When the fee for the new pub was determined, it was established that students would start paying $7.50 the first term that the pub was opened to the public. Mr. Allison stated that “the spirit of that wording has not been o.bserved” this term. Mr. Allison outlined some of the problems a refund of the Fed Hall fee would present, “all along our planning was geared toward opening in fall ‘84. Our fees have been accruing since June (of this year). In two weeks, we’ll have to pay the University one
On Thursday, November 15, Imprint interviewed Dr. Brzutowski, vice-president academic, regarding his changes to the program. Dr. Brzustowski said that the memo’s allocation of controls to the IS co-ordinator was not unreasonable since Gloria Smith, the co-ordinator, was directly responsible for IS’s upkeep and finances, under the vice-president’s direction. Dr. Brzustowski also felt that some of the students’ complaints can’t be remedied because, he says, the student government aspect of the program is not necessary in any independant studies. s He feels that student involvement in the administrative process is fine and he realizes that “it’s hard to imagine that you can have an independent view of study but at the same time impose a rigid framework”. He -also reasoned that he ivas not giving Mrs. Smith any control that wasn’t under her mandate.
Alternate arrangements have been made tor most of the events scheduled to take place at Fed Hall in the final weeks of the term. Tonight’s Naismith pub will now be held at South Campus Hall, as will next Thursday’s Kin/ Eng pub, if,Fed Hall is still not open. No alternate venue has been booked for next Friday’s MathSoc pub, featuring Breeding Ground and L’Etranger, as yet.
Day of Action fights Bovey by Manuel Gitterman Imprint staff About 60 students came out of the rain last Thursday, November 15, to gather in the Arts Lecture Hall where they listened to student, administration and faculty speakers’discuss the Bovey Commission and the education cutbacks of the provincial government. The “Day of Action” was part of an Ontario of Students (OFS) inspired Federation campaign which was supposed to take place on the day that the Bovey Commission released its report. The students who attended heard speeches concerning education spending, deterioration of; facilities, and the generally tougher times which lie ahead for students. Dean Leipholz, speaking on behalf of the university administration (President Wright, the scheduled speaker was unable to attend),
I.S. students and admin. at loggerheads by Hilkka McCallum Imprint staff Integrated’ Studies, an independent study program& with a student-run governing body, is embroiled in an administrative controversy. The vice-president academic and the students of IS disagree over the structure of the program. The act that sparked the controversy was an October 9th meeting between the vice-president, Dr. Brzustowski, and the students, in which he demanded immediate re-assessment of two aspects of the program, and changed the powers of the student government, Operations Council. The control over space, access and security was handed over to the co-ordinator, supposedly an administrative position. These controls were previously held by Operation Council which operated with the co-ordinator to produce any changes.
hundred and eighty thousand dollars (for the mortgage on Fed Hall)“. No immediate concern was expressed over the Feds’s current cash situation. Mr. Allison said that the Canadian imperial Bank of Commerce have approved their request for a line of credit, which is designed to help the Federation in cash tight situations. All that was needed to finalize the line of credit were two motions from the Board, which Mr. Allison said he hoped to have out of the way after yesterday’s Board meeting. There is still no word as to when Fed Hall will be open for all to see. Mr. Allison noted that the plumbing problems have been cleared up, all the materials have now been delivered, and that the final building tests are imminent.
The co-ordinator’s job description states that she is the admir$strator responsible for the operation of IS, and must report to the V.-P. academic. The conflict arises because the other aspect of her job is that she is to work and solve problems with Operations Council, the student-run governing body. Several students, and at least one resource personnel (a teaching aid at the students’ disposal), have stated that the program should be run totally by the students with the coordinator acting as the contact person between Dr. Brzustowski and the students only. According to Dan Kealy and Irene Gillan, IS students, the present co-ordinator has not consulted Operations Council properly for the whole ten months she has been in office. Several times Mrs. Smith has been “censured” at Operations Council meetings. One time she accused a resource person, Scott Arnold, of being detrimental to the program by making abusive comments about her. She was censured by the Resource Persons and Staff Committee because she didn’t validate her facts. Some students have been keeping track of her office hours because they think that she is not fulfilling the 35 hour week minimum office hours i:; her contract. Dr. Brzustowski said that one of the most important issues prompting the changes were the inefficient phone bill collections. Students feel that this-was Mrs. Smith’s fault since she never approached Operations Council for a workable solution. Instead, she posted the fee sheet publicly and expected students to bring their bill payments to her. In reference to students complaints regarding her job “performance, Mrs. Smith said that some complaints were not valid and not worth responding to.
said the current situation of underfunding is “showing the cracks in the system”. : Jeff Wilson, speaking on behalf of the Federation of Students, agreed with Dean Leipholz that there was a need to “get the word out”, and his comments dealt mainly with the deterioration of facilities on campus as a result of the budget cuts. Feisal Rayman, president of the Graduate Students Association, presented statistics that showed the extent of underfunding and how it has affected the student, teacher ratio, which has risen from 13.8 students per lecturer in 1979-80 to 15.9 at this time. Another speaker from the Graduate Students Association Board of. Directors, Andres Athenitis, announced that the GSA htid formed a Student Action Committee in order to develop the struggle against edudation cutbacks on this campus.

by Mathew Ingram Imprint staff Calling advertising “the propoganda of capitalism”, Boston lecturer Dr. Jean Kilbourne gave a compelling presentation this past Monday, November 19th regarding the distorted image of women being presented in advertising. The presentation, sponsored by the Federation of Students, contained excerpts from Dr. Kilbourne’s internationallyacclaimed slide series entitled “The Naked Truth”, a collection of advertisements displaying a variety of unbalanced attitudes towards women. Citing statistics which show that over a year-and-a-half of the average person’s life is spent watching advertisements, Dr. Kilbourne made the point that while individual ads may seem stupid and irrelevant, the cumulative effect of advertising is inescapable. In the process of selling, Dr. Kilbourne pointed out, ads either implicitly or explicitly promote values and attitudes that are detrimental to both men and women, though women receive the brunt of them. The main focus of advertising in general, Dr. Kilbourne said, is the creation of fear or anxiety in the prospective audience, with the buying of a particular product presented as the only means of assuaging these emotions. Advertising, in Dr. Kilbourne’s view, presents us primarily with a “mythology” for our time -- one in which “males outnumber females by a factor of two-to-one, virtually all the women are young and beautiful, and no one is disabled, either physically or mentally; with the possible exception of the housewives who speak to little blue men in their toilet bowls”. In essence, Dr. Kilbourne said, advertising is designed to convince you that happiness and security can be obtained by buying things that you don’t need, and that are l‘reyuently harmful to you and/ or nature. To do this, sexual images are

employed, both subliminal and overt, and ideals are set up that cannot possibly be reached -- because “anxious and insecure people make ideal consumers”. Primary among these ideals, of course, is that of the perfectlooking woman -- a woman who “has no bags, has no wrinkles; indeed, has no pores”. The fact that women are involved in attempting to achieve this artificially perfect image, Dr. Kilbourne said, is admirably borne out by the fact that in the United States alone over one million dollars is spent every hour on make-up. The harmful effects of advertising go beyond anxietyinducement, however, as Dr. Kilbourne went on to illustrate; ads are resorting more and more t the objectification of‘ women - that is, either identifying them with objects, or as actual objects themselves. This objectification, Dr. Kilbourne stated -- as well as the figurative dismemberment which accompanies it -- leads to an even more disturbing trend; i.e. the portrayal of actual or implied physical violence towards women. Objectification, Dr. Kitbourne said, is recognized by psychoanalysts as often being the first step to the justification of actual violence. Another point Dr. Kilbourne discussed in her lecture was the increasing tendency toward the “sexualization” of little girls in advertisements -- a natural outgrowth of the “innocence is sexy” myth propogated by a variety of advertisers; Dr. Kilbourne also described the male myths perpetuated by advertisements -- ideals of wealth and power that men are encouraged to compare themselves to, with failure the result. l hex ads also portray men as hard and remote, implicitly devaluing any supposedly “feminine” qualities they might be expected to perceive in themselves. Dr. Kilbourne pointed out that relationships between men and women are also devalued,

It is no coincidence that lrtrpri/t/ is all of a sudden inundated with pieces on, or more accurately, against, the United States. The re-election of Ronald Reagan presents the world with a real, unimagined threat. His landslide victory validates all of his moves in the past, and lends credence to any moves in the future. In light of Reagan’s aggressive manner this is a very frightening prospect. There is an acrid taste in my mouth as I contemplate the heating up of events in Nicaragua. There is a sickening smell in my nostrils when I consider that this comes five short days after the election, perhaps a coincidence on the anniversary of the end of the First World War. I am not a paranoid anti-nuclear fanatic; I do not spend my time in a state of depression thinking that it could all end tomorrow. But I am desperately concerned that the Nicaraguan crisis, for it is inarguably a crisis, will result in an armed confrontation between the US and the USSR. I am concerned that the two countries will abandon their front, their proxies, and stare each other in the eyes. This is not 1962. Ronald Reagan is not John F. Kennedy. The USSR is not in a position in its history where it will take a direct threat lightly. The USSR, in fact, is likely to see a direct threat of confrontation as an opportunity to assert Chernenko’s firm grip on the country, a grip which rumours have indicated is slipping. The USSR, after four years of wobbling leadership, will be looking for the US to back down. Because of their mistakes in Central America, the US has allowed the USSR to gain a firm grasp on a region which they had hitherto considered America’s backyard and therefore America’s. With popular support in the region, they will not be

willing to loosen their grip as readily as Kruschevdid during the Cuban Missile Crisis. And Reagan, with all his red, white and blue rhetoric, will undoubtably not oblige the USSR by backing down. His steadfast pursuit of all things military is not a facade. It is testimony to the fact that he is more than willing, some might say anxious, to put it to use. Certainly, though, I believe that he is in favour of negotiation over confrontation. However, his past leads one to infer that this is not an overly biased favouritism. As well, I am not convinced that he and his advisors have quite the subtlety of the JFK administration. I am not convinced that they have the capabilities to properly handle a crisis situation. That is, to delicately manipulate, and allow themselves to be manipulated, so as to draw an outcome in which neither party loses ground or face. With sincere distress I read in this month’s LijiB magazine about the new nuclear Trident submarine. The helplessness one feels when considering their power, and controlling them, is the loose chain of command indescribable. To think that Thatcher’s fleet in the Faulklands was authorized to use nuclear arms if necessary. With difficulty I find a cheery side to my fears. The use of nuclear weapons in a limited confrontation will reaffirm their horror and perhaps spark serious negotiations. Perhaps it will convince our governments that ours is not a globe of seperate entities which refer to themselves as “countries”, which stand on their differences and shoot at the moon. Ours is a globe. Ours is a blue-green bail in black space filled with beauty even now. ‘I’. 4.
sizes of feminism
How many other women are fed up with being labelled “Feminist” in such a condescending manner that one is inclined’ to believe that “Feminist” and “Bitch” are synonomous. I’ve almost had it with j ibes about my “Feminist tendencies”, to the poi nt wher .e I’ve actually fo und myself starting to apologize for what I believe in. I resent reading about certain female politicians who are so damn adamant in stating that they are definitely not Feminists. That implies that they are not Big “F” Feminists, only small “f” feminists. These women believe that promoting women’s rights internally is more effective than the past “bra-burning We’re not going to take it anymore” attitudes of yesteryear. Granted, these women make a valid point and certainly considering the present government, small “f” feminism will have to suffice. But, let us not forget that feminism can be possible only by the efforts of Feminists, who have shaken the very foundations that these women are working

within. Let us not downgrade, ignore, or apologize for those outspoken women (some are still around today) who have withstood every opposition imaginable in order to provide the opportunities that many women have today. Bravo to those “never say die” outspoken females who have the guts and spirit never to excuse or regret their Feminism. A male acquaintance said to me the other day, “You’ve come far enough, Baby!” and to him I replied, “We haven’t come near enough, and my name’s not Baby!” I welcome letters that will no doubt flow in stating that Feminism has had more negative than positive ramifications, and perhaps has closed doors for many women rather than open them. To those who pen these letters, I can only emphatically suggest that you familiarize yourself with more literature concerning women in Canada; for you may be the ones apologizing. Damn. the torpedoes, full speed ahead!!!

Otis Slug really is.” Holmes carefully listed all the clues for me again: Todd ordered two pizzas twice in one day: Bob, Joe, J.D., and Oscar worked in the darkroom: Sandy is the young, urbane, professional: Julie and Liane have the same last name: the columnists are Zeke, Shayla, and John: Dave, Mathew, and Angela typed while Tim slept on the couch: the cartoonists are Jeff, Jack, and Brian; Anna Marie and Nimet argued with George, Doug was caught in the middle, and Cam feigned innocence; Dave, Nosh, and John dropped off their copy, while Jim stayed for hours to make sure his was just right: Alex, J.D., and Angela were born in England, but Tim wasn’t; the only ones with names that start with a ‘C’ are Carl, Carol, Claudio, and Chris; Michelle is not married to Mike ‘the little mushroom’: Richard and Ricardo do pasteup: Kathy, Doris, Rob, and Will all said that they wouldn’t choose ‘Slug’ for a last name: Dave and Signy hunted for gnus: Hilkka played guitar; and Helmut worked efficiently as usual. “Now, Watson, it should be obvious,“edeclared the ever observant Holmes, “who is C.

ln response tb-Meir Rotenberg’s Letter to the E+&“~6 -November 1984: J The historical-viewpoints presented’in my last 2 articles were not peiSona1 ones. 1hey were based on the actual statements of leading ‘Zionists [sotircis inchided. .as usual). In this light, you should understand’.that you ark not disagreeing.with me, but rather with ihe leaders of thfe. Zionist movemetit that you are so kee’n to defend. Your rendition of Palestinian history indiqates that after the embarrassment of your first article ;ou have resorted to being vague. According to the Jewish Historian, Dr. Alfred Eilienthal, (The, Zionist Connection, p .l49) “the name Palestine was derived from ‘Philistia’ for this was the land ’ ol’ the Biblical Philistines or peop!e of the sea -who oq+pied the.Southern coastal area in the* 12th Century B.C. . ..(however) between the &h tillenium B.C. tintil 900 B.C., the- predominant indigenous stock were Canaanites.” The inhabitants of Pal&tine. by this time had several centers ,of civilization inc&ding Jericho, Migiddo and Jerusalem, and had eslablished trade link‘s’ with the neighboring civilizations. . According to Lilienthal, “Pilestine had always been the target co successive invaders...” The list of these invaders includes the relative late comers to the ai-ea, the Hebrews.’ The Heblrew-ls*raelite-,Judean.-Jewish community(as it. was known over time) says Lilienthal, thdugh it established its military rjower ori’gnd off, never co&uted‘the majoiity of the-population in’Paics]ine.’ The Jewish community feil t;d yet other invaderi and _were ultimately dispersed by the Remans thioughout the etipire.‘ ’ After the ‘Rbmans, came the Arabs, whose cultural influences have lasted to the Dresent. Todao’s -Palestinians are essentially a mix’ df the origiial . ‘indigenous population including Canaanite’s -and Philistines with (to a lesser extent) the’iniading peoijles over the Millenium. ’ Zionism In responsq to European anti-Semitism, Jewish intellectuals in the. l_ate 19th century advocated the \&cation of a ‘YetiiSh state*‘,.’ Thus the Zionist movement began. After serious considerationot’ Argentina and Uganda, a!mong other-s, Palestine was chosen l’o,r-the $ite of their state. Jewish colonial settlements were ,establish by the end of the 1890’s. ’ .’ - ’ Lilienthal says that “ whileJews continued to live -in Palestine since their driginal entrarice circa 1000 B.C., in contemporary times the J&wish pdpulation of .Palest.ine..:in 1917 was a mere .7 percent of! the 700,000’ inhabitants. The rest were Muslim (570,000) and . ._ Christian (70,000) Arabs.“’

Stand Up... Be A Woman! - . Affirmative Action, Negative’ Reaction by Hilkka
I
McCallum
Equal rights? As Barbara Amiel once quipped, “show me one right a woman doesn’t have..” Even though women have difficulty getting jobs in traditionally male-oriented occupations, will it be productive or will it encourage any possible employer to hire women if equal opportunity officers sit in on interviews? I would like to think that any woman would balk at the idea of some other person coercing her future employer into giving her a job. Would not the woman want to prove that she is qualified enough to get the job and fulfil1 the position herself. I think the problem with the mass feminist movement is that women don’t learn to prove themselves. A woman must stand up and convince the world of her own worth, like men have always had to do. According to the Star, out of 900 of Ontario’s largest companies, 244 have some sort of connection with Affirmative Action. However, only 39 of those companies associate publicl!r with AA. I can fully understand their hesitance. Many companies just don’t need the hassle of the AA black armband tightening around their corporate powers.
When playing with a snake, expect to .get bitten. the AA enforcers will never let those companies forget that they should be focusing all their hiring powers on the “need” to drastically increase the number of women in high positions. Barbara Speakman, a former director of Ontario’s AA consulting service, said that “as the economy improves, government will put pressure on businesses to improve the position of women” I do not believe in enforcing mandatory equal hiring for women, especially since women are not in any way an underprivileged minority; in fact, the statistics are in our favour, we outrank men by 52:48. Don MacLeod, president of Savage Shoes, says that “the real resistance to change comes from men in middle management worried about increased competition from women.” This statement is rather contrived since middle management is notorious for their reactionary position and are against any competition, male or female, since middle management jobs usually offer lifetime security. I repeat: Change must come from within. As long as women continue to act in groups and try to regulate “fairness” by legislation there will be no increase in true equality. Nothing is enforceable unless all of society chooses it to be.

. I To the Sedttoi: “It is not good for the man to be alone.” Those words from Genesis 2: 18 will strike a chord in the hearts of most single people. The Bible says that men and women were made for each other; and most people’s experience confirms this. Most of-our experience also confirms that what seems on the one hand very, very good, often ends up feeling very, very bad! And in tliat conflicting experience, most of us muddle on, hoping, fearing,... longing, dreading. Can the contlict be explained? Is there some way of approaching the topic which will maximize that which is good and minimize that which is bad? Our experience suggests the answer is an emphatic YES! Our observations of much of the sexual discussion and behaviour ori this campus also.clearly point out how come it hurts so much so often. Basically sex is one of the most powerful ways in which people can express love to each other, a giving, unconditional and self-sacrific-ing kind. of love. And sex serves to bind and unite people with great force. But w,here love is lackifig, and the d&ire to be committed to the other is lacking, sex ends up being a lie. Since sex ‘is communication, it is something like a word and it denotes a certain meaning. It means “I love you”: It means “I am committed to you”. Just as a word spoken without genuine meaning will be meaningless, or confusing, or deceptive and hurtful, so sex without love and commitment will be meaningless; or confusing or deceptive or hurtful. It is not surprising that in the most intimate and’personal relationships, problems which are endemic to our culture surface in their most poignant, pathetic and tragic form. -’ , Human relationships of all kinds are in trouble, and concern with and respect for others, let alone genuine love and commitment, is rate and tragically undervalued. In this materialistic age many of us have little exposure to the joy and splendour of truly loving, loyal and committed relationships. Instead, we have to endure a constant deluge of mass-media promotion of selfishness, love’s antithesis: We are encouraged to gratify ourselves, without regard for others in advertising daily. we are taught that if we don’t look ou.t for ourselves;no one else will. A large prodortion of us come from broken homes where the model of marriage we have most closely observed, and grown up.with, is entirely ‘unsatisfactory to ourselves and our parents. The result is a mentality which not orily sees no -need to off& unconditional love to otheis, itself, but actually does not expect it from others either. Maily of us only have a
‘vague notion of what that love is. It corresponds to the ~ vagueness and confusion in this ,age-,about God, who is, according to St. John, love. If you have not know/n love, you probably cannot know God. That accounts for the problem, but what is ‘the solution? Well, sex ca,n only be-dealt with in the context of relationship, and relationship is either about givirig, t_aking, or trading. We’ve allexperienced .the wretched feeling of what they cab get, and the people from whom they get it feel taken. Some relationships are bargains; exchanges, like trading money for goods, or favours for favours. Such relationships, if they do not proceed to givfng or descend to taking, are at best stiff, formal and utilitarian. Ultimately they are unsatisfying. Then there are giving relationships. When we have known giving people, we always feel blessed. l:hc.rc is a phony giving which is really just -speculation. ,One wiil dffer something in hope or expectation of a return, and ii’ the return does not material&, bitterness and withdrawal result. But real giving has not strings, and it always feels good, and it serkcs to make us lee1 like giving back. But ‘there arc dangers, even in giving. It is unwise and unhealthy to give to another more than he is able to handle. You don’t give your car keys to a six year old, it would be no favour to anyone. And sex it sebms, is rather like that. You don’t give something requiring irrevocable commitments to those who haveno use for such commitments, or are unable to reciprocate. It will only be a burden. And sex, without that commitment, it a lie, because it does, by its very nature, demand that kind 01 commitment. If the demand implicit in the act’ is unmet. unvarying, various kinds of emotional scars result. If the. commitrinent is made in a relationship that do& not have enough of the other kinds of love present, it will bc difficult tc sustain.

The use of sex, outside of such dee,pI,y committed qcrmanent relationships, is really abuse.-You gei hurt, the other gets hurt. and the relationship usually crumbles in,to bitterness and recrimination as a result. Sex is neither casual nor rc’creationa: in-its inherent nature, and the casual use of it is the emotiona, equivalent of.the casual use of firearms. Without proper respect for the power one is dealing with, people are going to &ct hurt and likes are going to get ruined. Doug Thompson & Linda ,Tranter .. ..I _,.

A Sermon on Poetry Par-t I by George
Elliott
Clarke
.i. - .
7‘/1e boss nwds el’ou; ~I’OU~hl f nwd hitn. Placards on Sorbonnc wall: May 1968 -~ The aim of this epistle, this love letter ‘to my fellow poets, is not to discourse on any new dogma for poetry; to’ forge from the firtii of rhetoric some new bond of popular poetics to ehslave a million talents for the next tiillenia, but rather to raise a revisionistic question in the durrent debate as to whither shall poetry go. 1 intend- to argue the case for .developing a more substantial poetry than that being composed currently in the Dominion; to argue for a return to the‘temple of poetic tradition. Contemporary Western culture (that is, Babylon) is a culture of fads. And poetry is not immu ne to the sud den upheavals, the great intellectual, social/ economic shifts in the body pol%ic that seem tb effect everything. At present, Western society is locked in a conseryativetrend. While 1 abhor the effects of “neo-‘j conservative theory and policy on society andleconomy, some’of its tenets arc vqluable, especially for the arts. (l,can already hear some of the &red, effete liberal intelligentsia snickering, but I shall continue). The liberal philosophy of despair (the inevitable result of’ belief that the State can’ do everything), bf “no absolutes”, of absufli y ( l+‘uitI’~g .ftir Go&r or tax breaks for :he working cI:iss, par example), is a de‘ad-end. The artistic exnressions of this fatalistic belief (fatalistic despiteits gauhy btit whorish trappings of dptimism) whether they be dadaism. surrc~slism, social realismlpop‘ minimalism, pop art, br abstract art, and all their. attendant manisl’estations in so-called free verse (!lers libre). from Eliot’s coinedic “Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” to Atwood’s “Progressive Insanities of a Pioneer”, are also dead-en&, being but buttresses of the discredited, -liberal‘ State and worse, failures in communicating anything meaningful. This is the greatest charge one can level against contemporary verse (or art, sculpture, arehitec-ture, etc.). This is the fault of th& 20th Century: men ceased to seek rev_elation and settled for the’poverty of the way things I are. In fact, in this century of thi Holocaust and ‘the breaking ‘of empires, poets -- and -other artists -- have forgotten or fled from their true audience -- the common man, losing themselves in the drugs and luxuries of academic allusions, twisted syntax, weird philosophies, warped punctuation,\. and the whole, unstructured alpha‘bet soup_that is the boetry of chaos and hatred. In fact, it is not really poetry but anti-poetry, the literature ’ _qf the qnt!-.Christ,of the Beast. -’ And this perverse form of v.ers% has been one of the many columns _ that has supported the intellectual superstructure of - the Beast, (which is Mammon, international finance capital, and the slave systems of Eastern “socialism” and authoritarian nation-stated); ii is asdefeatist poetry, finding-refuge in nonsense, when-clear, exact sense is necessary for fighting the gross matei-ialism : of the Beast. *

“Alumna.ughtfdefends To the editor: 1 just read a copy of November 2rid Imprint with the story about the coup d‘ecole at Integrated Studies and I think that I should write and express my anger at the high-handedness of the administration and my distress at the potential loss of the best learning environment I‘ve ever encountered. I was a student in the Integrated Stud& Programme 1’ro.m January I977 c.e, to April of 1980 c.e. I was actibc in a number of committees of the Programme th.roughout that time, coinitiator- of a number of workshops and seminar series also served as the I.S. representative on the I-‘cdcration Council.

To the editor: I write in response to the letter entitled “l’here is a way that scemeth right” that appears in imprint .on November 16, 1984. Perhaps the author’s error was unavoidable, but it is not excusable. I do not contradict mybell’ when 1 declare that the author’s summary of my previous letter (“Picture if you ,will, mankind’s pursuit of r.eligion . ..as climbing a mountain”,lmprint, October 26, 1984) is inaccurate at best. It read as follows: “...the article suggested that the ultimate in life was to climb your own mountain, in pursuit of your own religion and that you should not preach or ieveal to others the IPath that vou d are taking.” (T. H ohge) Firstly, 1 neither suggested that we each climb our “own mountain” nor that any one path “leads to the highest peak”. 1 stated-that we are all attempting to attain the SUIPILJsummit. Secondly, the author misinterpreted in saying “pursuit of your own religion”. This equates religion to the summit itself. One’s chosen philosophy or religion defines the path one takes, not the summit one ultimately wishes to attain. l‘hirdly, and perhaps most importantly, at no time did 1, or do I now, suggest that we conceal our chosen path once we set out. l’he author also noted that it is one’s respon,sibility and obligation to gain practical instruction before proceeding to climb the mountain.

To the editor: I am wl.iting in response to the article reprinted from the Grebehpeak by Fred Martin in the Nov. 9 Imprint. Or I should say,de portion of the article as I got the impression that it was not the entire article (i.e. It began “As a response to this situation...” without specifying the situation.) As 1 have not had a chance to read the whole article, 1 hope 1 have not misunderstood anything. I would hope that what has ‘C been printed stands as a coherent whole. The article deals with the meaning of Bruce Cockburn’s song “If 1 had a rocket launcher” and it disturbs me as it seems to present a completely opposite interpretation to my own of the song. To me, it is not a call for violence but the opposite. Cockburn is taking the view of someone whose response to a situationis violence--the desire to kill someone (any “son of a bitch”). He does not offer this viewpoint as a solution but, rather, as a cause of the problem. It is a song offering qn attitude rather than a solution. He is satirizing, very bitterly, a disturbing trend In our society: theease with which we reach for 1 5 1.

Gandhi:- A Woman of Destiny for i6 years, from 1966 on except for three years, 1977-80. Indira Gandhi did many things that required much political courage and tenacity: in 1967, she broke up her own Congress Party, and as a “Young Turk” rebelled against the Old Guard and its power structures. She nationalized fourteen major banks of India and terminated special privileges and privypurses fog hundreds of princes and kings. She fought a war against Pakistan and for the creation of Bengladesh. And then in . June 1~84, she set out to rid Sikh temples of the terrorists who had unleashed a reign of terror in Punjab and then sought sanctuary from the police in the temples. For her actions, she had won overwhelming support from all corners, including the leaders of variuos opposition parties. But there were also problems in the manner in which she ruled. She centralised all political power unto herself and kept the reins of power tightly in her own hands. She trusted no one except her two sons; the others had to prove their loyalty to her constantly and often frivolosly. Many of her ministers, legislators and administrators were more busy in pleasing her that in doing their job with and competence or integrity. In this, they often exploited each and every one of her weaknesses for their own nefarious designs. It was during one such fit of flattery that it was declared that Indira was India and India was Indira. Yet, for all that, her strength was formidable, and hei sense of courage and initiative extraordinary. All other politicians in India, inside and outside of her party, seem cluite like dwarfs before her. The late Indian prime minister Indira Gandhi.

It has become obvious that an education alone cannot provide a guarantee of economic security in time of rampant unemployment.

He sees more parttime and shared work situations along with a great deal more leisure time for workers. At least five career changes are to be expected during the course of the average person’s working years. Mr. Sweeney predicts that by the turn of the century fewer than 470 of the working population will be employed by the manufacturing industry.

This week two things did not happen. The Bovey Commission’s first report was not released last Friday, and Federation Hall did not open last Thursday. These have been the two most prominent and fervently discussed issues on the Waterloo campus this year. Hopefully, this short column will shed some new light on each of these areas of concern, or at least add a new perspective to them. The Bovey Commission was formed in December 1983 to address the growing problem of underfunding of postsecondary institutions in Ontario. These budget restraints have had two distinct effects on this campus and every other campus across the province: reducing accessibility to the system and reducing the quality of education. An example of reduced accessibility is illustrated by statistics produced by the Council of Ontario Universities. Their study found that while applications increased by 23.3% from 1978 to 1982, the total capacity of the Ontario university system increased by only 15.5% during that same period. A severe lack of summer jobs for students coupled with a student aid program that has ndt been augmented to meet demand, has meant that many students have not been able to pursue their education strictly because of lack of funds. Underfunding has also affected the quality of the education we receive. Crowded classrooms, obsolescence of lab and computer equipment (for undergrads but not

for research!), reduction of faculty and the concomitant reduction in courses, and a phasing out of study space, is a short list of the effects of underfunding on the academic quality of this campus. The extra-curricular aspect of our education is the area being hit the hardest. Our Physical Activities building, the Campus Centre and the residence facilities were built to service a university community of half its present size. Very few considerations have been made to increase any of these services, yet the need is significant. The Bovey Commission was supposed to submit its preliminary report last Friday, but asked for an extension (I hope Edmund loses a grade a day on his late assignment!). Until the report is made public, we are left wondering what direction the government intenhs for the future of our University system. Let’s switch lanes and discuss Federation Hall. On Tuesday (November 13th), an exhausted Executive and staff was informed that Federation Hall would not be open for the weekend. By now everyone knows that we didn’t get the necessary approvals required for the issuance of a liquor licence. The items to be completed are minor in nature and include completion of the installation of the draft lines and the air conditioning system. We tried our very best to open the building last week and sincerely apologize that this did not happen. Every effort is being made to open just as soon as possible: I hope that this column will be announcing our opening before it is my turn to write again.

I4 Interview
Imprint.
14 study
And then, when Mr. Davis became premier in 1971, I was asked to be deputy minister (of Social Development) in the new structure. I stayed in that and in different jobs as deputy minister until the end of 1980, when I left Queen’s Park and had SIX months before I came back here. So, I’m a civil engineer who’s worked as an engineer, taught and administrated the engineering school here,,and worked at Queen’s Park on everything but technical matters; I dealt with higher educatibn, doctors, hospitals unmarried mothers, children with behavioural problems, Indians, old folks, the status of women, the physically hanidcapped, multiculturalism, heritage, the lotteries -- I was responsible for the lottery corporations. I: You’& sensitive to a lot of things other than your field. w: Yes, I know a lot about the political process, and I’ve dealt with a lot of people in business. Given the change in environment at universities, I think that has been helpful to me. 1: Well, then, when you came to the university as president, firstly, did you have any specific goals and concerns, and secondly, over the past three years have they changed significantly?
Grier staff
Lately there has been a great deal of speculation as to’ where the Ontario university system is going as the twenty-first century draws near. Much of this speculation is centred around the controversial Bovey Commission, which will read its conclusions to the Cabinet early next week. Also, with the upcoming change in premiers, the university system could be said to be approaching a turning point in its history. In this interview with UW’s third president, Dr. Douglas Wright, Inryrirrt raises a variety of issues focussing mainly on Dr. Wright’s view of higher education in general, and UW in particular. In his third year as Waterloo’s president, Dr. Wright is primarily concerned with the financialsituation now facing universities, and with how UW may cope without jeopardising its quality. He feels that with his wide background; he IS particularly sensitive to all aspects of university and its relationship to society. The interview took place in Dr. Wright’s modest Needles Hall office overlooking Laurel Creek. The atmosphere was very relaxed, and in his friendly, soft-sfjoken manner, he responded candidly to ,a;/ questions. Dr. Wright seemec;’ co be concerned with not only the direction of lJ W, but the direction of universities in general, and with how technology and economic change will affect students and potential students. Following the interview, Dr. Wright pointed out a picture of himself from the 1960’s. The then Dean of Engineering is shown with some of his students, each with drink in hand. He commented: “I had a perfect track record; I never missed a stag, and I always left before the police got there. *’
,
Imprint: First of all, I would like to get you to say something about yourself, because too many students don’t know who Doug Wright is. Wright: I came out of university just after the second world war, and went to university at a time when all these servicemen were coming out. It was a very mature group, and it was a very rich experience. I went to the University of Toronto, then worked for a while. .. .I did my Masters degree in Illinois, and a PhD in England (at Cambridge University). I came back and did some more engineering work -worked at Queen’s (University) for four years -- and then I came here when this place wasn’t yet a university. I came here in September, 1958, twenty-six years ago. And I came here to be the first head of civil engineering. I was very young, and I was asked a few weeks later to be the acting dean of engineering, because they were looking for some very senior person to be dean. I spent most of that year helping theni look for someone while I did the job, and after a few months they said, ‘Why bother looking?‘, and simply made me dean. I was, at that time, the youngest dean in Canada. I therefore was the first dean of engineering here, and had a great deal to do with the development of engineering. And, because the university was very small...1 had a lot to do with the general development... ...So. when I finished being dean in 1966-67, I was going to go back to engineering and teaching, but in fact, within a few months, at the invitation of Mr. Robarts and Mr. Davis, I went down to Queen’s Park and became the first full time chairman of a provincial committee that dealt with University finance...

by T.A. Imprint
Friday,
W: I didn’t have any goals in a simple, operational, specific fashion, although when I made my address when I was installed three years ago, I’m sure I spoke to some of those things. I was concerned about the financial difficulties that the University had fallen into as a result of external factors involving company money, and space. I was concerned with winning recognition for our strengths, finding ways to add to those strengths, and with some of the opportunities I saw for the University. I think what I’ve done since reflects that, but it also reflects the opportunities that have arisen. You don’t know that a certain event is going to happen, but if you have objectives then you seize the opportunities that do arise. Obviously, some things have come together to lead to the commitment for the (ICR) building, and the fund-raising campaign, which is going...far better that we expected it to. I: I’d like to ask you about our relationship with the provincial government. You were a senior civil servant for a number of years and friendly with Bill Davis. Firstly, a lot of people have been saying that there is an ulterior motive to naming the (ICR) building...What is the motive for calling it the William G. Davis Building? W: It’s very simple. It’s recognition of what Davis has done in the past for this place. I’ve had some people ask me, and I’ve written a letter which I believe has been published in some computer newspaper, the UNIX users. I don’t think I want you to print it, but let me tell you what I said roughly...ln the early sixties, when Davis was minister responsible for university affairs, and I had no previous relationship with him, he did several things which at that time were, I suspect, difficult, unconventional, maybe unpopular. At that time, Waterloo was not taken seriously by other universities. They were very bold, and other universities thought we were going to fail. Davis’s decision to assist us with the math building --the present math building -- and our subsequent installation of the biggest computer system in Canada -- the decision to support that in a rather ingenious way came from Davis. And that as well as some other encouragements he provided at the time, were critical to what’s happened here. We couldp’t .have achieved what we’ve done without those decisions close to twenty years ago. Those are the reasons. And further, another very significant p’oint -- I mean, those are reasons twenty yedrs in history -- we wouldn’t have made that announcement until we’d had word of his resignation. Once he’s retired, it has no political ramifications. So it wasn’t a matter of winning favour, it was a matter of saying thank you. If he hadn’t retired that decision would have been delayed. I happened to expect that he wbuld. retire. Lots of people didn’t, I won a couple of little bets. (Dr. FSrigh t went ott to cliscttss his persottttl wlatiottship with ~rettrier L)ctL’i’s tts tad1 us with the other four pro~itwictl lwtdership mtttlid~trm. Intprittt thetr rtskwl if the ittcipietrr change itt ltretttiprs will huw cttry itttpvc ott rttciwrsiry ftttrilittg.) W: It may, but I’m not sure in which way... NOW, on the prospects of University financing, there are some things which are obvious. Mr. Davis never made any secret...of his personal apprehension of the politics of tuition. I think it’s widely known that he got burned politically once when tuition was increased. It was increased in a way that was not handled smoothly, so that there was a big reaction. But having had that experience, he was understandably apprehensive. It’s obvious now that by all the objective measures you can identify, tuition is relatively very, very low. You can express that as a proportion of the GNP, the most immediate measure is the one we used at the Bovey
d
in
Commission which expressed average tuition as a function of average salaries on graduation. Right now, tuition is about 5% of salary on graduation. I: What do ycu feel it should*be? W: Don’t know. But I suspect -- well, it has in the past, when I was a student, been 15%. And that was at a publicly the University of Toronto. funded university,... Another measure is the degree to which universities are indeed hard up...and the fact that the general situation in which governments find themselves makes it improbable that governments, whatever party, will be able...to make much difference in that. Therefore, given the financial situation occurring in universities, which is a combination of grants and tuition, which really is very bad, there is particular reason that we considered the first option. What we said to Bovey was that tuition should rise; we’re not sure how high. We’re rather more concerned about how fast than how far, because I don’t think you can tolerate an abrupt change. What‘l’ve argued is that it might increase 10% per annum faster than inflation. Say tuition now is a thousand bucks, CPI (Consumer Price Index) is 4%, that means instead of a forty dollar increase, a one hundred and forty dollar increase. I: Are you in favour, then, of gearing tuition fees at certain universities to their marketplace value, so to speak? W’: Oh, yes. I: So you think that UW should be able to demand more tuition than, say Laurentian, or other universities without quite the reputation of UW? W: No, I think it’s much more complicated. It depends on a whole bunch of factors. I think the province, with some safeguards, should generally allow a reasonably free market to exist. Some will choose to increase tuition more than others, and there will be a whole bunch of factors which enter into that. I think that it depends on the courses they teach. I can make the case that the kinds of things we do here, the level of computer service we provide, costs extr-a, and provides a benefit that students will probably be prepared to pay for, particularly if we could enhance our computer services... A certain group of Universities have, I think, maintained their own standards, and certainly have shown preeminence in research... Because of their research, I think they could justify increased revenue from tuition, and, likely, students would be willing to pay that. I: You’ve also advocated structuring OSAP so that there is... W: An accessibility. People are not disadvantaged. People are not kept away for financial reasons.
I: YOU don’t think that if tuition rises significantly... W: Well, part of the reason I argue that it should be gradual -- like I said, 10% per annum, that’s not going to be overwhelming, and extra hundred bucks -- is so that we could...obser<e what’s going to happen. If it had that effect, you could stop there...and it wouldn’t have an effect, and if you couldn’t, well, what’s wrong? And it allows you as well to continue to modify the student assistance programs so that you are making sure
,
nte kct
a
that accessibility isn’t seriously affected. All of which you can do if you do it on a gradual basis; none of which is easy if you try to do it overnight... Then the issue of how you should rate the student obligation. I think loans are appropriate. I argued in a commission I did 14 years ago that we shoud use a system of contingent loans... A contingent loan is a loan that one repays bn a basis of one’s earnings. If one can afford, one pays the whole thing. If one cannot, then one is excused certain payment on a year by year basis, which is to say that the grant occurs not in terms of your situation when you’re a student, but in terms of the situation when you’re earning subsequently. Let’s say that if you choose to go into the clergy, or go to CUSO, br you happen to be unemployed, well, you are partially...excused. But if you get a job as a computer whiz making a fabulous income, what the hell, you pay. And that system, I think, is quite elegant...
Since it’s a bookkeeping thing, it would allow you a very substantial tuition...It becomes an obligation that you pay from your future earnings if you have them. The trouble is, it’s complicated to administer. Most people who have studied it say that the best way to administer it would be through the income taxsystem. That is, your payment would simply be billed into your income tax payments. The government would put the.money up, and collect it on that basis. As an instrument of social justice, this proposal is very attractive, because it means that no one need be apprehensive about going to university. They won’t be held away by money. They will build a paper debt. If they do well after graduation, they’ve got to pay it all back; but, what the hell, they’re doing well. If they’re not doing well in any year, then that proportion is excused. The grant occurs when they need it. I think that’s very nice. In Canada, you need to have agreement between all the provinces and the federal government (for the contingent loan program). The federal government has to become involved...in the income tax a‘greement. It would be complicated to turn out, but not complicated then to administer, because computers would be a big Part of that. I: Our reputation as a learning institution is basically in high tech, as are a lot of the developments on campus, such as the ICR building and the New Oxford English Dictionary project. I’m wondering what sort of precautions are being taken to ensure that the university isn’t developed at the expense of the humanities. W: Well, let me point out how we interpret ‘high tech’... We’re high tech in three ways. Sure, we’re strong in, and emphasize, the high tech subjects -- engineering, math, and science. We also emphasize, encourage, and support the use of high tech tools in subjects&that are not, themselves, high tech. And that means computer graphics for architects, and for the geographers, it means all kinds of computer stuff for HKLS, and it means the exciting new things coming on in the Arts faculty. As one Arts professor -- he’s a professor of 18th century literature -- said to me, “it’s a damn shame computers were used first for numbers, because they work so much better with words”.

race I think that the cxer is likely to be equally powerful and useful as a servant in many fields in the humanities as it is in civil engineering or chemical engineering. So our view of high tech -- I’m explaining the second mode, then -- it’s high tech for everyone... I can’t imagine a time, say, ten years from now when anyone goes to work at a professional level, that is, who has a university education, without using hich tech tools. I just couldn’t inrrcgirlf> doing anything without high tech tools. Accordingly, the dictionary project and some others we’re negotiating...are not so r,-nuch high tech things as using high tech tools for what may be revolutionary advances in the humanities. The third branch...is we’re very interested iy work on impacts on society, values, issues of high technology. . ..We have a roo,T working of Arts, HKLS, Env. S., and that will, I think, provlde...a new quality, a new ingredient in quite a few undergraduate courses. So, there’s three ways in which we are a high tech kind of place, but two of the three lean towards non-engineering, non-math faculties. I: Let’s move to our relationship with industry. This came in on a news release: “Louis Berlinguet, federal government science guru, was lavish in his praise of UW when he was on campus recently; said the University has been ‘at the than any other Canadian forefront, perhaps more university’ in establishing links with Canadian industry; also, Waterloo is a model for other uhiversities.! Do you agree? W: (Chuckling) Well, it’s hard not to agree with someone who’s flattering, and Louis is a personal friend, so I’m sure it was very well intended. I’m not about to dispute it. I: Let me put it this way: do you want to enhance our relationship with industry? W: Yes. But I want to emphasize something that is evident as soon as one sees it...and that is, simply, we do not have to sell our academic schools to enjoy a good relationship with industry. And I can explain that very, very simply in terms of co-op and in terms of research. In terms of co-op: what attracts very talented young people to Waterloo...is that co-op complements theacademic-program. It doesn’t damage it. In fact,‘if you get good experience in co-op then your experience in the academic terms may deal more with general fundamental issues...because you learn the practical things far better on the job.
At the same research level, the thing I observe is that industry does not generally come to us and say, “we have this problem, we need this research done, would you do it for us under contract?” Very little of our work is of that sort. We do a bit of that as a favour, mainly to smaller companies, but generally the companies do that themselves. ...My point is that industry comes to us because, on our own, we have undertaken work, often taking years to develop to a level of confidence, which industry then perceives as being important to them. They- then come along and say, “Gee whiz, that’s pretty exciting stuff. If we give you some money or equipment, will you do even more of that?“. But people don’t see that. The agenda is our own. I: With regards to the co-op, and the excellent students in co-op; a lot of these students are working towards that job, and are not getting a liberal education...Are steps being taken to ensure that students, they do get a liberal education? W: Yes, they are. But let me first say something about the notion of a liberal education. In medieval universities, people studied Greek and Latin...because the only reference books of the day were the classics, which were in Greek >and Latin, and if you wanted to do anything useful, which meant, generally, working in the church, in the government, or law, you had to learn Greek or Latin to get a job. It was entirely practical; no less practical than somebody in computer science. Confucius, I think, wrote that no one ever spent four .years doing anything without being concerned about the practical benefits. Students have always been concerned about the job market, and about the consequences. Now, there’s been an evolution. Until 1972, in Ontario, anyone who did a degree, (III_)’ degree, had a guaranteed, open ticket into the white-collar middle-class as a schoolteacher, including the least qualified B.A. gra,duates. 1972 was the first year this ceased to be true. There were some big changes. Enrolment, particularly in Arts, plummetted over the next few years. It is interesting to note its gradual rise since then. Students now, I think, perceive more than in 1973 OF 1974, that a rigorous education in the Arts is a very powerful thing intellectually. Which, while it may not be vocationally specific, it is vocationally useful. And I don’t think that students have ever, for the last thousand years, lost an interest in the vocational consequences of education. The other part of your question is really about what we’re doing to keep breadth and balance. You may know that
we’ve been in the pattern of doing a major plan for each decade. A (recent) plan...which will be finished before too !ong...and I think that they are going to call very strongly, first of all, for more breadth. However, I think they’re redefining liberal education into the twenty-first century. I: A lot of engineering students...try to steer away from Arts courses when ctioos’:lg their electives. W: They are led to believe that the reason for doing a couise in English or History is just for some naive view of broadening, and if you’re interested in electronic circuits, you think that that is going to be a waste of. your time, particularly at your age. I believe that there is a much more clearly identifiable reason to do that sort of course. I put it in these terms: that the culture of engineering, science, and mathematics is one whose problems have unique, correct answers. We live in a world in which real problems have no unique, correct solutions. And therefore, we are giving our students in engineering, science, and math a kind of narrow variety of intellectual culture that will not serve them well, as well as something that’s brr,clder. The reason...for a broader education is to learn that the real world is full of insoluble problems; that there are not demonstrably correct solutions; and finally, that subtlety and ambiguity are important in a real world situation... If we can articulate that with some clear precision, we may make that engineering student realize that he’s going to get some intellectual power from the course in History, not just the names of kings and queens. I: One question which I’d really like answered concerns the issues of hiring new blood onto the university faculty. It’s been mentioned to me that perhaps because of a lack of new blood, brilliant professors here don’t really have a protege on staff who will continue their work at the University. Is this a problem? F’: Yes, we have a problem...The general issue is that we don’t have e’nough resources to keep adding young people. If we could increase tuition, or otherwise increase revenue, we’re going to be able to hire them.
I: That brings around the question of tenure. Do you think that now, at this time, especially, as you say, when vi& are having trouble hiring young people, tenure is viable 1 IF;: I don’t have any problem with tenure, particularly as we administrate -- some universities may not do it as well as we do. It’s very hard to win tenure at Waterloo. Not only do you have to do your PhD, which is three or four years, but you must do a post doctorate, you may have one or two years in a fixture appointment, and then six years probation. My God, I mean, that’s almost twelve years. And we can still dismiss people for cause. We don’t make a public act of it, but various people have been asked to move on. I: Lastly, as we’re running out of time, I’d like to quickly ask you about student/administration relations. In light of the Campus Centre Board takeover a few years back, and the more recent intervention on the part of the administration in the student-run Integrated Studies program, do you perceive the relationship to be more co-operative or confrontational? W: Co-operative. I give you as an example the new Federation Hall, the general relationship with the Federation, and particularly with the societies. The CCB and IS were, l think, vestiges of the past. They are anomalous.

Streetcar by Dave Browman Imprint staff There are many in the artistic community who claim that Tennessee Williams wrote only one play: Streetcar Named Desire. All his other work pales in comparison with the finely etched characters and sultry, sensual dialogue of this play. Partly due to ihe input of Elia Kazan, who was responsible for making Williams’s early drafts stageable, the script moves along inevitably to its conclusion: the destruction of a Southern belle, of the ideals of the old South. This single-mindedness of message makes Streetcar very difficult to present. For the play to work, Stanley must be a believably large, intense man. Blanche must appear as a Southern belle. Without this essential conflict, the action can become aimless and confusing. The UW Creative Arts Board production of Streetcar Named Desire, which closed last Saturday, November 17, is an
misses a stop example of how resistant this script is to different interpretations. Instead of entering the play in seeming control. Blanche flies in, terrified. The essential fact the plot revolves upon is her impending break down. If she is already broken at the opening curtain, this conflict is removed, making the show anti-climatic and silly. Although he possesses a very attractive, well-toned body, Ma:-k Caspi, who played Stanley, was not physically large enough to impress the characters and the audience that he was sensuality incarnate. On stage, Mr. Caspi has a presence quite like James Dean, both sexual and intelligent. This did not fit the actual text, creating a confusion which was felt by the audience. This confusion was shown by inopportune laughter at tense moments throughout the later stages of the show. With the central conflict of animal versus intellect blurred, the powerful language of the closing scenes takes on a double meaning, one dramatic and one humourous. Another factor which helped confuse the audience was the injudicious use of humour. An example would be the unfortunate blocking when Mitch puts a shade on the bedroom lamp. Blanche is sitting on the bed, within inches of Mitch’s crotch. While good for a laugh, it detracts from the over-all momentum of the play. Speaking of injudicious sexuality, one wonders if Streetcar is a good play for a nude scene. This is a genuine modern classic, the plot is not advanced by such nudity. In fact, on the night this reviewer attended, it served to distract from the emotional content of the action just before and after it. Streetcaris paced to pile tension upon tension, like so many building blocks, leading to the powerful rape scene climax. With the emotional release the nude scene provided, the momentum had to be built again, dissipating that cliniax. Given these problems, the actors soldiered valiantly on, but their believability was diminished by the lack of dramatic focus. Stephanie Moskal, who played Stella, was steady, but was overcome by the lack of real tension onstage. Annett Harris, who played Blanche, spent most of her performance speaking in a trilling, emotional voice, quite unlike the calm, cool, always modulated tones of the Southern belle. Still, some scenes were very effective, indicating the potential of the writing and of the leads as well.
For all of' lifh S criseJ; and those featuSed in tragicomedies,
pathetic moments, especial/J, booze is the pc>pular solution. --1
Elizabeth Shannon, who played Eunice, was brazen, loud, and thoroughly the most believably common person on stage. However, her lively performance distracted from the more reserved acting of the rest of the cast. Mitch, who was played by Dwayne Heppner was very believable as a nice guy, but seemed to be uncomfortable when he had to turn on Blanche. The other supports fulfilled their duties well, given the time they spent on stage.
Domestic overtones
angst in a southern kitchen: smouldering sexual iti’ everything imprint photos by Odysse Kazoglou
Technically, the production ran into problems because of the size of the stage. The set itself was interesting, and conveyed the poverty that the Kowalski s live in. The design itself was too small. Blocking and set changes were hindered by the lack of space and limited stage access. For example, after the rape scene, Stanley and Blanche exit together into the bathroom, which undercut the effectiveness of the rape. In a sense, the cast of Streetcar Named Desire riever had a chance. The singleness of purpose of Williams’s writing demands a certain interpretation for effective theatre. If that interpretation is ignored, or discarded, tensions can’t develop, G leaving the central conflict inoperative. Kudos should be proffered to this cast, and to N,ed Dickens who directed the production. Their courageous experiment showed the power of Tennesee Williams’s writing.

Duke Ellington’s “How Sweet It Is” had a genuine Big Band sound that featured soloists Andrew Krueger and a muted trumpet, Earnest Kalwa on the alto-sax and Janet LeClair on the piano. All conquered their solos with unblemished excellence, becoming embodied in the sensation that is jazz. It was at this point that Janet LeClair showed her first‘signs of emotional involvement with the music. From here on in the music contained the soul it had previously lacked. Next came the Boss Brass’s “Blue Daniel” and its modern jazz excitement. Wild drums blended into Allan Richardson’s smooth tenor sax solo which was “o-so-easy-to-listen-to”. The kind of cool, seductive music that makes your blood pulsate when listened to with your eyes closed. Paul Andry, the guitarist, looks more like he should be in a contemporary rock group rather than a jazz band, but dbviously he felt captured by the spirit of jazz. He was not ashamed to be young and to play jazz - a musical entity mostly associated with our parents’ generation. But today it continues to reflect a generation of free, creative, unbound survivors. Mr. Janzen decided that the members needed to give their lips a rest, so we were then treated to Janet I-eclair performing a sensational slow jazz version of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow”. Her soulful expression of an old time favourite was indeed a wonderful treat. I listenec’ to it holding my breath, so as not to miss any of her subdued major chords which made the smooth transition to minor ones, to sound off key as good, cool jazz always does. Les Hooper’s “Engine No. 9” ended the concert with the rhythmic syncopated pulse of a steam engine coming clcser,

by Dave Browman Imprint staff Frank Zappa, one of the most influential musicians still working in popular music, has emerged from his creative doldrums of late, and released a whizz-o, new, double album, entitled Them or Us, released for yet another record company, Capitol. Mr. Zappa’s popularity has waxed and waned with fans and critics through his twenty year career, as has his enthusiasm for, and commitment to quality. Detractors claim that much of his material is pointless, banal, or arrogant. There have been periods when his music has seemed-repetitive, lacking creative drive I Them or Us. is an indication that Frank has started once again to put his frustrations behind him (he is struggling to be accepted as a classical composer and to release a five album set which will include a full symphony and chamber music). This latest release reads like a check list of the various popular forms he has already mastered. The album commences with a Reaganesque doo-wop plaint of love, but rips the mask off the true meaning of modern love with such gems as: “Baby Take Your Teeth Out”, and “In France”. He snarls at faddists: “Steve’s Spanking” attacks the latest fetish in vogue with the sexually glutted, and “Truck

Driver Divorce” punctures the urban-cowboy-poet myth. ~ “Be in my Video” sneers at the latest rage in rock, and parodies the media phenomenon that was once David Bowie: “...we will dance the blues..,yeah, sure we will...” The classical projects must be demanding much of Frank’s time. This album is notable in the fact that he plays lead guitar only on side two, the instrutientals, and the closing song. Dweezil Zappa, a fiery player who is very much like his father in style, shares duty with Steve Vai, who takes good advantage of his opportunity’ to wail. Another plus is Mr. Zappa’s ability to laugh at the business of music. “Planet of My Dreams” has an hysterical Kate Bush-like voice on it, “Ya Hozna” has backward lyrics, an obvious swipe at Jimmy Page and Satanic message freaks of either extreme. Them or Us doesn’t have the sustained brilliant force of You Are What You Is, the beauty of One Size Fits All, nor is it as totally commercial as Over-Nite Sensation. Instead, it serves as a good sampler, as a summation of the musical forms he has already mastered. It’s a good album on which to base a Zappa collection. How fitting then, that the last song on the album reveals the cause of the anger behind much of Mr. Zappa’s music. He feels cheated and is bitter about the shallowness and misery of everyday life for everyday man. In “Whippi.g Post” he says: “...Nothin’ seems to change/bad time stays the same/and I can’t run.” That’s the essential paradox for Zappa fans. Every time he sings, he laughs at you. But when he plays, he weeps for us all.

Naismith Classic 84 by Mike Upmalis imprint sports With a pub, some alumni, and a new Warrior, and seven teams from across Canada (almost), Waterloo is having a basketball tournament. Waterloo’s pre-season moves into high gear this weekend, with the seventeenth annual Waterloo Naismith Classic. Waterloo, coming off a string of strong games against tough teams, goes into the weekendtourncywith some injury problems and strong hopes to repeat the win from last year. Waterloo is playing host this weekend to Guelph, McGill. Laurier, Manitoba, Acadia, Ryerson, and Lakehead. Action starts this afternoon with the opening games of Guelph vs the McGill Redmen. With the Gryphon side stacked with six rookies and McGill cirtually unchanged from last year when they won the Quebec conference, the outcome has got to be a win for the boys from Montreal. Next game, at 3 p.m., sees the Manitoba Bisons with 6’6” phenomenon Joe Ogoms playing against the Lauricr Golden Hawks. With Manitoba sure to be ranked nationally this year, Laurier will have a rough go of it. Watch out for 6’9” Chuck K!assen and an old Warrior, Bob Urosevic. Four high school basketball teams, Lowe from Windsor, Eastwood from Kitchener, Oshawa and Bethune from Toronto, will be playing in their own tournament with two games at 5 p.m. on Friday and with finals and consolation on Saturday. Acadia Axmen have drawn the Ryerson Rams. Ryerson has improved since last year but with the aid of AUAA all star Chris Sumner, look for an Acadia hatchet job on the Rams. Waterloo plays late Friday night at 9 p.m. Waterloo is going into the tournament with three starters, but only two of them will be playing - Tom Schneider and Rob Froese - and one of them 1s out for sure (Peter Savich with a broken finger). Schneider and Savich are both casualties from the Guelph tip off tournament where Schneider stubbed his toe and Savich got his injury in the dying minutes of the game.

Waterloo on the floor is very much a team effort. What is important on the floor is not as much the skill of the player but how well they fit with the other four on the floor. Morris gets the rebound and fires to Savich or Boyce who are already halfway down the floor.
Schneider vjorks the floor so well from the outside that Waterloo gets the higher percentage opportunities. Harry Van Drunen has moved up to take some of the slack and Jerry Nolfi and Dave Moser have shifted over to work the perimeter. Waterloo has a strong starting five, and depth on the bench, but the effort from the bench will have to be that much better to keep Waterloo going at their pre-season pace. Waterloo’s opponent is the Nor’westers from Lakehead in Thunder Bay. Cheddie Warner, wearing no. 10 for the Nor’westers is an all-Canadian candidate. Waterloo, despite the injuries, should notch up a win sending Lakehead off to play Ryerson in the TV game at2 p.m. on Saturday. Waterloo should get to play Acadia in the 9 p.m.semi on Saturday. The other semi on Saturday at 7 p.m. should be one of’ the best matchups of the tournament, with McGill and Manitoba. Sunday morning sees the consolation final at 9 a.m., the runner up game for the semi losers at I1 a.m. (taped for later broadcast by channel It), foliowed by the final at I p.m. (also taped for broadcast later by Channel 11). Warrior fans, accompanied by the Warrior band and the mysterious Warrior, are noted as one of the best home team crowds at least in Ontario and are worth an extra ten to twenty points a game for the Warriors. With the number of TV games this year, any banner makers will get good exposure for their efforts. Waterloo starts a new tradition this year by coupling the Warrior Basketball Alumni weekend with the Naismith. Warrior Alumni from the past years will be returning to be honoured, watch, and maybe get in a little basketball over the weekend. The Naismith pub originally scheduled for the “tinkertoy palace” (Fed Hall), has been moved to South Campus Hall for Friday night starting at 8 p.m. Everybody is welcome; and since the entertainment is free for the Naismith for season ticket holders, it is a good place to drop some cash.
Waterpolo Warriors drop one, win one by Ross Morrissey Imprint staff The Waterpolo Warriors hosted the last tournament of the season at the Laurier Pool on Saturday, November 17. They had to win both of their games, the second against undefeated McMaster, and hope that York would upset McMaster in order to make the playoffs. They beat Toronto, 4-2, but lost a hard fought game to Mat, lG-6. The morning game against U of T showed the Warriors team playing in textbook fashion. The close man-to-man defence set up by the Warriors frustrated the U of T team
completely in the first half. U of T had difficulty getting the ball out 01’ their own end at times. When they did get the ball down the pool, the Waterloo defense allowed only the outside shot, dealt with easily by goalie Chris Norley. With a 4-O lead going into the third quarter, the Warriors coasted to a 4-2 victory. The game was a true team effort with 4 different scorers. In the second game, the formidable McMaster team to use their was able experience to capitalize on the smallest errors by the Warriors. Slips that would
have led to a turnover against U of T led to McMaster goals, and Waterloo had difficulty getting the ball out of their end several times. When Waterloo surrendered the outside shot, Mat was able to make it count. Although the game was within two goals for most of the game, the fine individual performance of John Saabas was not able to stem the flood, while McMaster went on to win 10-6. The highlights of the last tournament included the incomparable play of John Saabas, last week’s athlete of the week and coach. Other players deserving mention:
Jon Tyson, a departing graduate who travelled from North Bay this season to hold down the centre position; the two frosh goalies, Chris Norley and Scott Murray, who plugged the sieve better than ever; and Kevin Schofield and Dave Cash, last year’s frosh speedsters, this year’s polo stars. The Varsity Tournament was followed by an AlumniVarsity match at the more familiar PAC pool. The Alumni team used its experience to take the team to a 7-7 tie at the end of 4 quarters. A controversial last minute ruling resulted in a final 9-8 score for the team.
Hockey team regains respect ’ by Annie McGowan & Cathy Somers, Imprint staff This past week, the Hockey Warriors regained the offensive punch they’ve been lacking in their easy I 1-6 victory over the Ryerson Rams. This win ended the Warriors’s two game iosing streak, during which the team

managed only one goal in two games. Leading the team was last year’s high scoring combination of Steve Cracker and Jay Green. Cracker scored four goals, while Green netted a hat trick. Singles were scored by Kent Wagner, Dave Hulbert, Jack McSorley and Dave Fennell.
The victory was never in doubt as the Warriors started out quickly - taking a 5-1 first period lead. Ryerson mounted a second period comeback. At one point in the period they out scored the Warriors 4-1 to trail Waterloo, 7-5. But in the last minute of the period, the Warriors scored again to
regain a three-goal lead, 8-5. That was as close as Ryerson would get. The Warriors pulled away in the third period. They scored three goals in less than four minutes to go to 1 1-5. Ryerson rounded out the scoring with a goal in the last minute 01‘ the game to make the final score I 1-6.
The tenth annual Mike Maser game wili be played next Wednesday at the PAC. Until his death in 1975, Mike Moserestablished many personal records that have stood the test of time.
He played for the Canadian Basketball team, and was practicing for the 1976 Olympics when he died on a team trip to Florida. The game and award are named for Mike Moser.

After rhis impressive first game, there was a brief period of adjustment on the part 01 both teams, and the Brock crew enjoyed this opportunity to put points on the board.

Don’t tinker with CUP ,
As most of you know, last Sunday, November 18th, in the chilled confines of Edmonton’s frozen playground, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers defeated the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 4717 to grab Eat-1 Greys Cup for the first time in 19 years. The players-performed, in front of 60,000 fans and a nation-wide J.V audience, in -10 degree weather on a slippery, frozen field. Only in Canada could they play their championship game at the home of the northernmost franchise in freezing temperatures while a domed stadium sits idle and vacant on the west coast. The CFL, with the best of intentions, decided that it would be best for the league if they spread their showplace, the Grey Cup game, around the league. This way fans in the other centres (not just Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal) would get to see the game. It was a remarkable promotional and marketing coup which brought the game to Edmonton. They were also able to convince the league to start the season two weeks early. That way, the game could be played in Edmonton’s balmy, midNovember temperatures. In deciding to hold the game in Edmonton the league left itself open to ridicule for not using the best indoor football facility in Canada. They turned their league’s showpiece into a game that benefitted the makers of broomball shoes more than the Canadian football fan. There is now talk-that the league will do even more tinkering with our national institution by changing the playoff format. The Grey Cup game has always brought the eastern and western champions together. They want to change all that and have one division. This, they say;would ensure that the two teams with the best records, rega.rd.less of either east or west, would meet in the championship game. . . ” . --, .. The pundits who favour this approach are forgetting that upsets occur with .alarming frequency in pro sports and that there is only one playoff structure that will guarantee the two top teams playing in the final. Was there talk of changing the format after last year% Grey Cup? No. Would there have been this year had Toronto won the east again? No. Were plans drawn up to change the NHL playoffs after Vancouver met the Islanders in the Stanley Cup finals three years ago? No. If the CFL is capable of taking sound business advice, here is what they shou1.d do. They should leave the Grey Cup playoffs the way they are and they’should pia) the game in B.C. Place.
