Though Cameron says it is unlikely incoming students in all disciplines will be encouraged to buy computers, this eight-member committee made up of academics from all faculties has been discussing curriculum for all programs. They are expected to present the recommendations of their six-month study to the administration in May 1987.

of a student's tuition, thus exceeding provincially set tuition levels, the ad- , ministration could not require incoming first-year students to buy them. However Cameron says those students who do not buy personal computers despite having been recommended to do so would be at a marked disadvantage to other students. After all, "you aren't required to buy textbooks either," he says. Cameron sees one of the primary concerns of the proposal being its cost. The committee is looking at a student expenditure of at least $1,000. Currently, firsbyear Engineering students at both Queen's and McMaster universities have been encouraged to buy IBMcompatlble Zenith computers, at a cost of $1,500to $2,500. More than 90 per cent of these students have done so. Cameron, calling the computer an "innovative tool forthe student", says the university administration is inter. ested in maintaining the excellence of Waterloo's computing facilities through the investigation of this proposal. At present, Cameron is awaiting student input on this issue. Students may contact him atthe Federation of Students office (CC 235) or through his computer account(D0NCAMUi r WATDCS). Dr. E Avedon, asscciate dean of Human Kinetics and -Leisure Studks, and the committee's head,may be contacted at BMH 31 17 or (EAVEDON r WATDCS).

Ontario’s new rent review bill to effect all landlords and tenants by Teni Shewfelt Imprint staff The Ontario ministry of housing last month passed a new rent review bill which will effect all landlords and tenants in the province. The major features of this bill are: - the extension of rent review to cover all rental units in the province; - the creation of an Ontario-wide rent registry to record the maximum legal rent for every rental ‘unit in the province; - a rent review rate that will be adjusted each year to reflect changes in inflation; - a Residential Rental Standards Board to ensure proper maintenance of rental properties. The item of importance to tenants in this new law is the rent registry item. With the establishment of a rent registry, renters can just phone the rent review board to determine the legal rent the landlord should be charging for the premises. Currently the rent review board only has records of those establishments which have been to rent review and not a record of all rental units in the pro vince.
E-mail your Imprint info As of this week, you can now send e-mail to Imprint on UNIX. As part of a continuing modernization pro gram, Imprint has recently acquired the capacity to directly download and typeset electronic mail from UNIX. The Imprint mail address is “imprintwatmath”. The UNIX account was provided by the Math Faculty Computing Facility, From on-campus, at home if you have acomputer and modem, or anywhere in the world, accessible to use-net, letters to the editor can be sent directly to the newspapers Campus Centre offices. Editor-In-Chief Steve Kannon said he hopes the new technology will encourage contributions to the paper, and that those writing letters-to the editor for publication will utilize email. From a production standpoint, email can be handled much more easily than conventional print material. When a letter comes on paper it has to be retyped. But if it comes electronically, it can be typeset directly. At some point in the future,’ the computer communication links between Imprint and the world may be expanded in order to provide a kind of “electronic newspaper’ complete with a forum section. This would enable anyone with a computer and modem to call up Imprint and download the latest campus news. It would have the added advantage of making more potential news sources available to the paper.
Students ger $14,000 claim by Teni Shewfelt Imprint staff
r
wer many months of negotiations, 40 Waterloo students received a settlement of more than $14,000 in a rent review case. The students were tenants at a Hazel Street apartment complex owned by a Dr. Weetman, and managed by property manager Terry Good. Although the rent review co’mplaint had been filed over a year ago the negotiations went smoothly and both sides appeared pleased with the settlement. This case will hopefully be one of the last rent review cases for Waterloo students as the new provincial rent registry, which will be established in May, is intended to eliminate cases of this type.
The rent registry is in the process of being established with all landlords of rental units of six or more having to provide their rental price to the board by the first of May. Many tenants have been concerned that landlords may initially register their rent higher than presently is charged, and then just add the yearly percentage increase on this initially high rent, however the law has taken this concern into account. The new law will give tenants in dwellings that have not been to
rent revrew two years to dispute the rent. If the dwelling has been to rent review then the tenants have 90 days to file for a rent review, unless the rent is substantially greater than the yeby -_,arly percentage . . rate . established . _ the rent review board, then the tenant also has two years to apply for a rent review. Although the registry system will take a while to become fully operational it should prove to be simpler and easier to apply than the present law.
OSAP crackdown by Mike Brown Imprint staff The verification section of the provincial ministry’s student awards branch is cracking down on OSAP swindlers. A court sentence has recently been handed down against a man who had purported to be a student of Algonquin College of Applied Arts and Technology. Gary 1. Epton appeared in Provincial Court, Ottawa, on Nov. 28, 1986 before Judge James Fontana, charged with fraud over $1,000. In 1985, the husband and wife duo of Paul and Lena Schuler, students of this very university, were charged with the largest heist of OSAP funds to date. The Schulers’ preliminary hearing is set for January 27 and follows in the wake of this recent punitive action against Epton. Epton pleaded guilty to the charge. He was placed on probation
Chinese New Year celebration The Lan Tin Club’s annual New Year’s dinner-dance will be held this year on January 24 in the festival room of UW’s south campus hall. The event will mark the beginning of the Chinese Year of the Rabbit. According to the Chinese calendar; each successive year is named after one of 12 animals. Certain traits are ascribed to people born in a given year; thus “rabbi” people are regarded as gifted, ambitious, smooth talkers and tasteful. Though said to be affectionate they are also rather detached, sometimes melancholy. As gamblers, they often have -an uncanny sense of picking winners. -The Lan Tin Club is a social and cultural club, for the most part involving business and professional people from the Chinese or Chinese-ancestry community in Kiichener-Waterloo. Canadians of nonChinese backgrounds are invited to participate in the evening. It will begin at 6 p.m. (cash bar open at 5 p.m.) and will include entertainment and ballroom dancing, beginning at 8. The dinner will be a 1 O-course one featuring, the organizers promise, authentic Chinese food including sweet and sour fish, roast pork and duck The entertainment will feature a traditional Chinese lion dance - a first for the Lan Tin Club. “We are particularly pleased with the quality and authenticity of this year’s dinner,” says Dr. George Woo, UW optometry professor, Lan Tin Club president and one of the evening’sorganizers. “It will be a treat . . . perhaps especially for non-Chinese members of the community who may not have had an opportunity, previously, to experience absolutely authentic first-rate Chinese cuisine.” Admission is $20 per person. For further information and tickets, call university extension 6282.
for 14 months, and ordered to make restitution of $1 ,150 within one year, Dave Payne, an Investigator-with the student awards branch, said that Epton had applied for assistance to attend Algonquin College during the 1984/85 academic year. The student picked up and negotiated an Ontario Study Grant cheque after having been officially withdrawn from his course of studies. Following in line with the Ontario Student Assistance Program, Epton is barred from receiving any further assistance. In the Waterloo case, the Schulers stole $175,000 through 23 Canadian universities. Strangely enough, Waterloo and one other Ontario university were not used in the scheme. The ministry caught on to the fraud when officials attempted to collect defaulted loans from people named on the applications. The fraud was uncovered when the supposed defaulters proved that they received no funds, and had not even applied to the plan in the first place. . Payne said that there are currently 25 or 30 OSAPfraud cases which are being investigated. He added that, to the best of his knowledge, none involve Waterloo students.

‘backlash s #policies hy Steve Kannon Imprint staff Like it or not, the federal government is faced with a large public backlash in the wake of its controversial immigration policies. The situation, which started boiling over with the Tamil refugee incident last year, is coming to a head with the bogus refugee status assumed by many Turkish emigrants. As outlined in this week’s feature story, Canadian public opinion has shifted from the welcoming attitude of previous years to one of growing resentment - understandable in light of the blatant abuse of this country’s hospitality. While Canada is obviously a product of massive immigration (we can all trace our roots to other countries), the circumstances today are radically different from what they were even 25 or 30 years ago. In years past there were many opportunities for newly-arrived immigrants; today, because of the technological boom, the job market isn’t able to support large numbers of unskilled or farm workers. Because of these changes - as well as government financial constraints there has been no choice but to place tighter controls on the country’s immigration policies. This move toward more thorough screening of potential immigrants has been intentionally sabotaged by a huge influx of phony refugees. These people ‘have bypassed the official procedures with their sob-stories about persecution. This is not to say that no legitimate claims exist. Real refugees have, in fact, been jeopardized by the false claims of others. When the bogus appeals of the Tamils and, more recently, the Turks were accepted, those people with legitimate refugee status and those on the immigration waiting list were placed on the back burner. Line-jumping is not the only issue in question, however. Much of the backlash is the result of the public’s image of those who gain entry to Canada on false pretenses. By blatantly breaking the law, lying about their circumstances and, in many instances, making demands of the government, such people show themselves to be totally undesirable. Yet, even when the truth is obvious, the government makes no move to do the right thing by immediately deporting known violato,rs. Such an action would discourage potential imitators and would go a long way toward restoring public faith in the immigration system. ,However, even legitimate refugees are feeling the brunt of public outrage - not because their status is questioned, but because of the government money to support them when they arrive. Newly-arrived people sometimes receive full support from the government --- housing, food, language training, job training and job placement - a costly service not available to citizens. While the argument can be made that these people eventually become productive, tax-paying members of society, there are no guarantees and the system is wide-open to abuse. The federal government should consider modeling this assistance program after the loans system used to aid this countries students. lnstead of out-right expenditures, the government could provide all the assistance needed .in theinitial years with the’ proviso that the money would be paid back over a negotiated period of time. This would allow newcomers to establish themselves without being an undue burden on Canadian taxpayers. While some public resentment will always exist due to prejudiced individuals, the current wide-spread dissatisfaction is definitely a result of soft federal controls. The government can’t do much about prejudiced thinking, but it certainly can make its immigration policies more publicly acceptable.
We all have the right to question authority * i
by Steve Kannon Imprint staff
Questioning the competence of the judges in our courtrooms has become somewhat trendy in recent weeks - definitely a move in the right direction. Appointments to the bench rarely relieve people of their mortal status; judges, just like the rest of us, are fallible, prejudiced and prone to moodi/ti ness. And, like the civil servants they are, many eventually rise to their own levels of incompetence. For too long: Canadians have held people in such authoritative positions in high regard-merely because of their titles. And judges have been quick to make use of this ready acquiescence. Hopefully, the recent publicity surrounding some rather dubious ideas held by a few judges - such as the Nova Scotian judge with very chauvinistic tendencies - will help the public realize that it is the individual, not just the title, who must merit its respect. Unlike the American system of elections, which hold many judges accountable, the Canadian method of appointing judges often leaves this country’s judges unchecked after they have been named to the bench. This is not to say we should follow the Americans; their system has many drawbacks of its own. But the governments - federal and provincial - should be made to keep a closer watch on their appointees. Obviously, the best way of ensuring this is done is to generate public awareness - it will be the people, mostly those who come in contact with judges, who can keep the gave-rnments abreast of what’s going on in our courtrooms. And when incompetence is suspected, or a discrepancy is noticed, the public should have a quick and easy recourse. Only when the public realizes it has this right, though, will the governments be forced to make significant changes to our overly-decorated court system.

to the people! by Doug Thompson Imprint staff Beyond the classroom, beyond the content of courses, computers will soon be as essential to the student as text-books. In Math and Engineering it was the slide-r.ule for generations. Then the pocket calculator became essential. Now the superior number crunching capabilities of the micro-computer are deemed nearly essential for the student. Slide Rule . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $10 Calculator . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $10 - $100 Micro-computer . . . . . . . . $1,000 - $??,OOO But while the technical student needs the number crunching tools, for many years other students have considered a typewriter to be an essential tool for essay writing. And computers, of course, make great typewriters. Already the standard for written assignments has been moved up several. points. When half the class is handing in essays perfectly typed and perfectly spelled courtesy of word processing software,, those with mere typewriters, or - heaven forbid ,- handwriting - are at an inevitable disadvantage. A huge problem, and an equally huge potential advantage present themselves. The problem is cost. It’s hard to install a micro for much less than a thousand bucks, and even then it’s a limited machine. That cost is going to present a serious problem for some current, and numerous potential students. If computers are essential for education then, like other costs, some system must be put in place to provide low interest loans or grants to the financially disadvantaged so that inability to buy a computer will not prevent them from getting an education. That’s the problem. The asset is this: a computer is a tremendous communication tool. Those familiar with the UNIX electronic mail user networks will immediately recognize the potential advantages of having, hypothetically, all UW students plugged into an electrqnic mail network. Communication between students could be vastly augmented on academic, social, personal and political levels. For instance, you’re having a problem in some detail of a course. Often asking fellow students is the easiest way to solve it. But you don’t know many students, and besides you’re at home and you know none of their numbers. Send mail, addressed to all students in XXX 250. For instance, profs could (if the students wanted) monitor all this semi-public correspondence regarding their own courses in order to find out what sorts of problems students are commonly having. For instance, you want to publicize a social event - simply post it on a social event computer bulletin board. You want to find a social event - simply look at a social event bulletin board. Computers provide for both centralization and decentralization. Small special interest newsgroups can help people with unusual interests locate and communicate with each other.

boards can get a message out to a wide audience. To date, the number of students with computers and modems is fairly small, and aside from UNIX use.net only faint beginnings of-such a potential network have appeared. We’re all familiar with the top-down style of massmedia communication. TV, ’ Radio, newspapers and even lectures are typical of that. One person speaks to many with little opportunity for response. Computers can be very good at this too. But they also provide the horizontal two-way communication possibilities. This is where the potential for a communication revolution lies, expanding links between people. Especially in a university community like this where, particularly for off-campus students on co-op, social isolation is more the rule than the exception, huge benefits could accrue to the university community. And then there are the potential benefits for Correspondence students. These people can r.arely meet as a “class”, and dialogue with profs is difficult. Computer communication offers whole new possibilities in this innovative and socially important educational .endeavour. Socially important? Yes, because many correspondence students are people who could not take university courses otherwise, because of such things as job and family commitments or geographical isolation. Since the railway was built, Canada has been a leading world “power” in transportation and communications, with more miles of micro-wave, more miles of rail, more telephones, and more miles of roads per capita than any other country. The computer is coming, and it could be as influential on future development in this country as the railway. And it will not be the multi-million dollar super-computers which lead that revolution, it will be the humble PC with the all important modem. Standing behind the home computer will be those who organize communication networks to do the work of opening channels between people. This revolution may well be more social and political than economic or industrial. By opening new channels of communication and making information available to people for whom it has not previously been accessible, the computer will have some of the same influences on culture as did the’ printing press. The possibilities are endless. And the computer is no dumb TV, victim of centralized program control and the tyranny of lowest common denominator market demands. The computer communications possibilities can be whatever we make of them. The opportunity is there to be seized, by student organizations large and small, and by the university itself. If it really wants to be on the leading age of technology it could take huge strides to bring computing to the people. Imprint is very interested in hearing from anyone with ideas and/ or experience in these matters. As a communication medium, we want to be on top of it.

And on Wednesday before Donahue -or Ophra catch night, last call for pitchers at a few wind of it. minutes before midnight. When I asked one of the fine waiPaul Kostenuik tresses why they were putting a pre2B Kin. mature damper on my evening, the excuse given was so lame it doesn’t warrant column space. Could this be the work of BACCHUS, or is the last call time decided by a roulette wheel or, more likely, the whims of staff? I don’t know how pervasive this problem is
Poster thief must fear the truth the editor,
An open letter to those who fear the truth: The WPIRG posters advertising their upcoming event on the issue of arnmalsuffering mysteriously disappeared from the PAS building last weekend. Who could be responsible for this crime against freedom of expression? Presumably the culprits have something to hide. Are there unnecessary animal experiments going on at out virtuous University of Waterloo that warrant this kind of blatant censorship? Is there any reason animals rights should not be discussed in a public forum? The problem of animal abuse in laboratories and in food production has always been ignored in the name of human-centred progress. If those who removed the posters do not think animal abuse is even an issue, we urge them to come to the event and say why. Tearing down posters, like burning books, does not deal with the issues, it only covers them up something particularly offensive in a university community. Why not state your views in public rather than hindering the educational opportunities of others? Ken Bragg 3B ERS Darlene Gage 2B ERS
A Different Light
Adoption by Chris Gerrard (a pseudonym) Imprint Staff 1 was talking to someone once about gays adopting children. The person was all for gay rights, and gays not being discriminated against or anything like that, but she was not sure that letting ‘them’ adopt children was such a good idea. 1 could not see why it was not. That is also something that the ‘Coalition for Family Values’ thought too. They were terrified of the possibility of those corrupt, perverted but to be pittied - people being able to have charge over impressionable young minds. Why, everyone knows that those gays are out to recruit more people as gays. And they could not possible make good parents, now could they. Fears of sexual abuse, brainwashing, and a wild lifestyle not conducive to the good development of a child seem to cloud a lot of peoples minds when it comes to the issue of a gay person adopting a child. But why don’t the same fears come to mind when straight couples adopt children? Picture this situation: A couple of professional people want to have and raise children. Unfortunately, they cannot conceive a child themselves. So they go to the adoption agency and apply to adopt a child. They are upstanding people in their community, supporting various charitable organizations. They take an interest in the community. They own a nice house, with a dog, and are able to support themselves and a child comfortably. They want to put their son or daughter through college or university, if that is what the child wants. They seem like an ideal set of parents. Sounds good so far? Oh, by the way, they are two lesbian women living together in a monogamous situation. Now how does it sound? If your answer is any different now than it was before you knew they were gay, I’d like to know why. A person’s sexuality has nothing to do with their ability to raise children. If an individual’s lifestyle is in keeping with a healthy environment for raising children, then why deny someone the opportunity to do so just because they happen to like the same sex more than the opposite one for a life-time partner? lcan hear the responses now: The child is more likely to become gay. A gay couple cannot possible be suitable for raising children. There is the lifestyle, the impression made on the children, the hardship suffered by the children who know that they have-parents different from everyone else. The only argument here that 1 can sympathize with is the last one. I can see a problem with being the, only child in your class that has two fathers. But, come to think of it, that is only a problem when the parents of the other children in the class make a big deal of it. Kids get a lot of their ideas from their parents, including prejudice. As for the rest of the excuses: current theories in human sexuality propose that ones sexuality is determined by infancy, and perhaps as early as in uterus - children of gay parents are no more likely to be gay than those of the straight populous. Most of the other points have to do with good parenting in general, and that is something that must be assessed of the whole individual desiring.to be a parent, not just on the basis of their sexuality. So there you have it. Despite what the ‘literalist’ (alias ‘fundamentalist’) religions have to say about it, 1really cannot see any reason why a suitable gay person should not be able to adopt a child as readily as a suitable straight person. Can you?

A wellvbalanced diet by Kathy
Marsman
We are now past the point in time when all vegetarians were considered to be malnourished and radical. The medical society has now acknowledged many health advantages to a well balanced vegetarian diet. These facts are listed here not as scare tactics or for purposes of convincing people of the vegetarian argument. We present this information at face value in hopes of informing people of the benefits of a vegetarian diet. Here are some tidbits of information to toss around at the dinner table: The Journal of the American Medical Association estimates a vegetarian diet can prevent 90 per cent of heart disease, simply because vegetarians eliminate the saturated fats found in meat. Given that 40 per cent of North Americans are overweight, 1984 U.S. statistics show- that the average vegetarian is 20 pounds lighter than the average American. This is not to say that there are not other factors involved, nor that if you become a vegetarian that you will lose 20 pounds, but vegetarian foods do tend to be lower in calories. Vegetarians have a 50 per cent reduced occurrence of kidney problems, as nitrogenous compounds characteristic to meat require the kidneys to do three times more work to filter out these toxins than the toxins found in plants.
,
A study at Harvard found the average blood pressure of vegetarian subjects to be 10 to 15 per cent lower than a comparable group of non-vegetarians. High amounts of certain fats in animal flesh, such as cholesterol, will not efficiently break down in our bodies,and tend to line the walls of blood vessels c.ausing high blood pressure, strokes and heart attacks. Vegetarians avoid various drugs,. pesticides, dyes, and antibiotics fed to livestock. These chemicals accumulate in meat over the lifetime of the animal. This accumulation makes for a much larger concentration of chemicals than is found in plants - up to 20 times the amount. Certainly it is hard to escape the chemicals found in foods today, and in small dosages, they may not be harmful. No long-term effects have been concluded with regard to these chemicals, as they have mainly not been used long enough. Often the trial and error procedure for observing effects is employed. Lastly, it has been shown that high fiber diets, low in fats and protein, high in carbohydrates, especially cellulose found in most plant matter, can significantly reduce the amount of time foods spend in the digestive tract, and thus will decrease incidence of colon cancer and cancer of the digestive organs as well as avoiding constipation. Hopefully, the facts will speak for themselves. The vegetarian alternative presents some distinct advantages. For more information, contact the Vegetarian Club of UW in the Clubs Room CC138.

by Susanna Reid and Martin WPIRG Volunteers
Carver
Do you own a pair of leather shoes? Have you ever taken an Aspirin for a headache? Do you enjoy a glass of milk‘? It is not difficult to find ways our society uses animals. Household products, food, cosmetics, experimentation and recreational hunting and fishing consti’ tute the majority of uses. But how many of us associate these practices with suffering? Billions of animals are killed annually for human ends in North America alone. Thirty animals die every minute in Canada and the United States to test new laxatives and oven cleaners. shampoos, hairsprays, Further, in North America, the number of animals I slaughtered annually for food represents a line of animals stretching over two million kilometres - far greater than the distance to the moon and back. Russians and Americans were ecstatic with their head transplant which created a dog with two heads although the tormented creature lasted less than two months. The lives of these animals are characterized by continuous days of suffering. Death is their only escape from a tormented exiitence.
DEBUNKING: by Robert Day Imprint staff Ah yes, another year, and just like the latest outbreak of cold sores, we have the annual prophesizing frenzy by all of the renowned “psychics” as they fight for their share of white space in any major periodical that has the prerequisite lack of class and taste to print their ravings. And this year, there are some real winners. But before we deal with 1987, we can take a look back at the last few years and some of the predictions that were made and that, subsequently, fell flat on their faces. Most of these tidbits were gleaned from the more popular tabloids and have been compiled by a wonderful journal called The Skeptical Jnquirer that goes to the trouble of keeping track of things like this for posterity. And so, without further ado, to business. Going back, to 1982, we find that Castro was not overthrown, Chrysler did not go out of business, California governor Jerry Brown did not marry and a UFO did not land next to the White House. Moving on to 1983, we see that Queen Elizabeth did not abdicate, governor Jerry Brown did not marry (again), fitness guru Richard Simmons was not shot, and it was not the Yankees and Reds in the World Series, but the Orioles and the Phillies. Surprisingly, no one foresaw what were perhaps the two major news stories of the year - the invasion of Grenada and the Soviet attack on a Korean airliner. ln 1984, we can breathe a sigh of relief that California did not
Animal rights advocates believe that animals deserve equal consideration with respect to suffering. They are not asking us to care more for an animal than a human. In fact, caring for other animal species serves to strengthen our compassion for our own species and, in general, for any sentient being. To increase public awareness of the plight of animals in our society, the Ecology Working Group of WPlRG is sponsoring two presentations on Jan. 22. Mike Schwab, the president of Canadian Vegans for Animal Rights will speak at 12:30 p.m. in CC 1 10 with a slide presentation. He will focus on modern farming methods and their consequences for farm animals. At 7:30 the same day, a film will be shown, followed by a public ‘address on animal rights by Vicky Miller, president of the Toronto Humane Society in AL 105. A discussion will follow each talk. Admission is free and all are welcome and encouraged to attend. For those interested, a wealth of literature is available on this topic. Animal Liberation by Peter Singer, The Case For Animal Rights by Tom Regan, Nakd Empress of’ the Great M&iic*al Fraud by Hans Ruesch and Animal Factories by Jim Mason and Peter Singer are particularly good books and can be ordered at the bookstore -or-are available on loan <at W PI RG.

Usheringkin the New Year fall into the Pacrtrc (with an unmarried Jerry Brown), while Mr. T. managed to avoid being struck by lightning attracted to his jewelry. This was also the year that everyone’s favorite prophet-for-profit Jeane Dixon set what must have been a new standard in vagueness by telling the Baltimore Sun, “I hope you can take it, because this guy Orwell knew what he was talking about. The world isn’t ready for all the things 1 know.” After second’ thoughts, however, Dixon did give several specific predictions ,to the Star, none of which panned out. In 1985, we can be thankful that Prince Charles was not trampled by elephants while on safari, while we can mourn the fact that Lee Majors did not go into space, measles did not become extinct and we (again) failed to contact extra-terrestrials. On the other hand, no one foresaw the volcanic eruption in Colombia or the hijacking of the cruise ship Achille Lauro. 1 have yet to tabulate the results for 1986, but it should be noted that there was a spectacular absence of any predictions relating to the space shuttle Challenger. Perhaps Dixon was aware of this, but assumed that the world just wasn’t ready for it. Now, on to 1987., According to prophets in a recent issue of the National Enquirer, a crowd of thousands at an open-air rock concert will witness an entire fleet of UFOs, prompting the White House to launch a massive investigation, while William “The Refrigerator” Perry will lose 30 pounds and open a chain of health spas
(just in the nick of time, what with Richard Simmons due to be shot any day now). My personal favorite foresees an untrampled Prince- Charles stupefying television viewers with his mental ability to bend spoons. And how could we finish this column without checking in on Jeane Dixon, the first lady of prognostication‘? Dixon is fond of blowing her own horn and, in the Star, we find her taking credit for predicting the Iran arms crisis with a quote that appeared in the Oct. 7 issue of the Star, “The next three months will determine President Reagan’s place in history. Decisions in the weeks ahead will mark his ultimate success. lnternal conflict will strain the President.‘* The fact that this unbelievably vague predict ion says nothing about Iran, arms or Nicaraguan Contras doesn’t seem to keep Dixon from claiming a direct hit. For Reagan’s sake, one can only hope that Dixon is wrong since, based on the last several weeks, the President’s place in history seems to be assured, right next to the Keystone Cops and Bozo the Clown. Dixon has a total of four pages of ‘predictions for 1987, with a depressing number qualified by “could”, “can” and “might”, mostly dealing with well-known entertainment figures and none of them worth repeating,\ unless you consider it newsworthy that Vanna White, the most wellknown entertainment non-personality of the decade for her uncanny ability to turn over letters of the alphabet, will wed sometime this year. And the, world waits with baited breath . .

“More than at any time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness, the other to extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.” - Woody Allen With humour and uncanny insight, Woody Allen wrote an article for the New York Times entitled Adrift Alone in the Cosmos. At the end of the article, he says our problem is that we are adrift, with no real centre or purpose in life. At Fed Hall on Jan. 19 and at the Humanities Theatre on Jan. 21, a ’ three-screen, nine-projector multimedia production ‘will be shown. Woody would likely enjoy it. Entitled In Search of a Sun, it uses the analogy that we are like planets, drifting through space until we find a sun to revolve around and live for. The show combines 1,500 visuals with a 50-minute sound track of pop, rock and new wave music. The posters bill it as “a probing look at our world and what people are living for” and “An Inquiry Into Values.” The show ‘was first produced in Western Canada under a 1980 youth employment grant. It has been revised and updated every two years since to maintain its impact and cut-

show at F&d Hall. ting edge. The heart of the show is its music - 50 minutes of OMD, Soft Cell, Thompson Twins, Eurythmics, The Human League, pink Floyd, Bruce Cockbum, The Police, David Gilmour and others. Running through the lyrics is the theme of searching, searching for something to believe in, something to live for. Again and again we come across the imagery of the sun. The imagery speaks, of being in the dark, needing some source of light or direction in life. But beyond that, the analogy can be viewed the way Allen uses it, and the way Friedrich Nietzsche used it in his Parable of the Madman. Society, and each of us as individuals, is like a planet drifting through space, needing a sun to revolve around and give life meaning. The show begins by looking at such “suns” as material possessions, sensual pleasure, partying and entertainment . . . These certainly offer much enjoyment. But as a centre or final focus to life, they leave us with two problems: either they don’t last very long,,or they can get out of control when not related to a higher sun. After a bit of comic relief, the show move on to more human options found in real love and friendship, the pursuit of knowledge (for the good of humanity) and social and political causes. As promising and fulfilling as these can be, sooner or later we run into the same problems. How do we keep from becoming destructive? And how do we cope -with the fact they, and we, eventually die out? In Search of a Sun is a catalyst for thought and discussion about issues we’d often rather-not face. On what do we base our values? And where do we turn for light and warmth? Sum up the questions raised in the production. The show deliberately leaves the audience hanging, dilemma unresolved. Anyone who has never felt such tensions will get a taste of what it’s like to feel that “there must be more’: but not knowing where to find it. Those who are satisfied with one of the suns presented are invited to challenge the statements of the artists and producers. In the first six years of showings, 70,000 people have seen the show on 100 campuses and at 70 other events in nine provinces. Responses range from “Thank you for articulating my own search for a sun” or “You just summed up the last five years of my life” to “Why are you stirring up. all these unanswerable questions? Thinking about these things can drive a person insane.*’ The show is being presented once again by the Waterloo Christian Fellowship and is cosponsored by the Education Commission of the Federation of Students. The show has received*good responses and promises to be a success again this year. MaryAnn Pierson, Fed vice-president in 1983, wrote: “the presentation was powerful and meaningful . . . the Federation of Students was quite pleased with the results of our co

sponsorship of the event here in Waterloo.” For those who are interested, WCF is sponsoring a showing of Say It Isn’t True: An Inquiry Into Faith. As a sequel to In Search of a Sun, it builds on the analogy that we are planets needing a sun. If what we ‘saw in the first show is true, what hope is there for our broken world? What hope is there for an end to war, injustice, loneliness, broken relationships, death? The sequel explores the possibility that what we’re looking for is beyond - beyond the material and Eirnan options we so often live for. It looks at the role of faith in our world and how the Christian faith in particular relates to a world of brokeness and injustice. It is a very personal statement, tracing the narrators journey as he progresses slowly and even reluctantly from agnosticism toward faith. The sequel raises more questions than it answers. But is does look at an alternative that is worth considering. And for those who find it hard to believe, that challenge of the first show remains. How else do we resolve the dilemmas expressed by OMD, The Police and David Ciilmour. What other sun can provide moral guidelines for our technology, give purpose to life and make sense out of death.

Students seek graht’ from city for nort-h campus townhouses by Ten-i Shewfelt Impiint staff Waterloo’s student housing task force decided last wekk to push city council for grants to the Waterloo Co-op housing project. / The task force originally recommended that they suggest council: “consider providing a grant” to the co-op housing, but at a meeting last week changed the wording to read “provide” a grant rather than “consider providing”. The task force is hoping to convince council to provide the grant to help alleviate the $lJ 4,000 lot levies to be charged for the co-op housing project. Lot levies are to be charged

on the co-op housing project because the land the houses are to be built on is privately owned and therefore subject to tax. If the project wgs to be built on university land, as in the case gf the,proposed North Campus townhouses, then the lot I~vy would not apply as the university does not have to pay taxes. Waterloo city staff was worried this grant would set a precedent for housing assistance, so the task force set up ‘some criteria which would allow this grant to apply only in certain circumstances. The task force recommended that in order to receive a grant the housing must be developed by a non-profit corporation, be providing housing to students and that the grant not exceed the amount of the lot levies. Another issue discussed at last week’s housing task force meeting was the city bylaw allowing no more then five unrelated persons to live in a rental unit. The task force had originally suggested mediation as a way of resolving the zoning issue but city continued

staff suggested going the route of a study. The task force agreed a study on zoning should be developed but decided to defer the study until the completion of the “Orser Case”. Mrs Orser, a landlord on Waterloo’s Albert Street, was charged under the- bylaw for having more than five unrelated people living in her house. However, last November the charge was dismissed by a justice of the peace. The city is now in the process of appealing the decision in provincial court, and the task force feels it is inappropriate to conduct a study while the case is in the courts. Matt Erikson, Federation of Student’s vice-president for university affairs and student representative on the task force, said that the zoning study should not be deferred. Erikson cited the large amount of time it takes to move a case through the appeal courts and the fact there are currently good lines of communication open between landlords and the city as reasons why the study should not be delayed.

Although Wilson told the jurors that no one. had ever a&ally seen Allen set the fires, he felt &at the circumstantial evidence was strong enough for a conviction. Speculation on the part of witnesses and university officials was that Allen was found guilty on the one charge because his fingerprints were found on a ceiling strapping in the same room.

Allen acknowledged under testimony that he had also erased some files and accounts in the UW computer system, and that under the name “Pyscho” taunted computer specialists who attempted to curb his unauthorized entry into the system. However, he denied setting - any of the fires. Defense lawyer Don Bitter says his client still faces a charge of assault and mischief in Toronto. That charge stems from an incident in which Allen admitted to setting a fire in an interrogation room in a Metro Toronto police station last April.

Body builders’ O.D. on protein say researchers by Hugh We&up Canadian Science
’ News
Bodybuilders who believe they need extra-large quantities of protein in their diet to maintain a musclebound physique have swallowed a potentially dangerous myth, say two researchers at McMaster University in Hamilton. Bodybuilders have only a slightly higher than normal need for protein, and this is well-covered by the aver. age North American diet, say Dr. Stephanie Atkinson, a nutritional biochemist, and Dr. Duncan MacDougall, a physi@@st in the department of physical education. “Most people in our society eat much more protein than they require ’ for healthy growth,” says Atkinson. “In fact, it is difficult not to get enough protein.” But many weightlifters, encouraged by false information and advertising in muscle magazines and manuals, consume three or four times as much protein as they need. They frequently get this extra protein in the form of supplements (powders, drinks) marketed by companies in the weightlifting industry: “Not only is it wrong to say that weightlifters need big amounts of protein, it’s dangerous,” says Atkinson. Several studies indicate a prolonged intake of protein can do
Harpur at Laurier Tom Harpur, the Toronto author, journalist and lecturer, will discuss his controversial new book, For Christ’s Sake, when he speaks Jan. 21 at 3:30 p.m. in the Paul Martin Centre of Wilfrid Laurier University. His book challenges such assumptions as the virgin birth of Christ, the divinity of Jesus, miracles and other issues that still are new to many, despite their discussion in mainline seminaries for more than 90 years. Harpur, who also is Rhodes Scholar and a lecturer at the Toronto School of theology, is b&t known for hi weekly religion solumn in the Toro ?Ito Star. After his talk, there will be an op portunity to chat with Harpur and to have his book autographed. the event is another in the continuing Meet the Author series sponsored by the WLU Bookstore.

irreparable damage to the kidneys, she says. In the words of Dr. Barry ‘Brenner, Ha’rvard Medical School nutritionist ’ and kidney specialist: “if we were to look at r&rally created disease that would have an equal effect on the kidney as many bodybuilder’s protein intake, it would be diabetes.” Brenner predicts a major increase in kidney failures in the next 15 to 20 years if bodybuilders keep consuming large amounts of protein. To find out exactly how much protein the body needs for pumping iron, the two Canadian researchers tested the six bodybuilders from a local weight-training program. They estimated the protein retained in the men’s bodies by monitoring protein intake in the men’s diets and protein output in their urine, sweat and feces. Atkinson says the recommended average daily protein intake for adults is 0.82 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. For bodybuilders, that number is only slightly higher - 0.9 to 1.2 grams. Atkinson estimates the average North American young man consumes 1.5 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight ‘more than enough to cover a weightlifter’s protein needs.” The bodybuilders that Atkinson’ monitored had an average intake of 2.8 grams of protein per kilogram. “My advice to bodybuilders is to

Looking for a way to enhance your resume? Visit the Volunteer Placement Bureau, newly-located in the Campus Centre, room 105A. The VPB is a non-profit organization that works with 150 agencies in the community. Previously, the bureau had only one office, located in the Victoria Park area, in KitchenerWaterloo. But, realizing that more than 40 per cent of the people who visited that office were UW students, the Federation of Students offered the bureau an office in the CC. The project was undertaken by Vanessa Maguire, an employee of the Fed’s Board of External Liaison. The goal of the VPB is to help students find volunteer jobs in the community which best suit their line of study. No appointment is necessary and students can drop by anytime Tuesdays between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Caroline and Mary will be glad to help you.

Three calculators from Texas Instruments. They’re easy to use and there’s one to make your everyday calculating tasks simple Each one features a sophisticated solar power system. That means you’re not going to be let down by batteries when you can least afford it. In a nutshell, the three calculators you sek here reflect what we believe calculators are all about: they’re fast, they’re efficient, they’re reliable and they’re easy to use. We’re sure there’s one for you.
To start with there’s the TI-31 SLR which performs the 63 most used scientific and statistical functions, including the algebraic operating system. But if you’re into more advanced math, statistics or computer sciences, you should be looking at the TI-36 SLR, or the TI-37 Galaxy. The TI-36 gives you a total of 89 f&ctions. It can convert figures from one base to another and performs mixed calculations. It also has a 10 digit/Zexponent display that shows 13 mode or status
calculations. The TI-37 Galaxy has all this plus it can handle integer or fraction calculations. And it comes with a hard plastic carrying case So if you’re looking for a calculator that’s simple to operate and perfect for what you want it to do, think two letters, TI. and visit your kas Instruments dealer; What could be simpler?

The Canadian government seems to have a hard time making’ a distinction between refugees and immigrants. Whether the ambiguity is an indication of Canadian foreign policy or the review process is in need of a complete overhaul - or both - over 20,000 “backlogged” refugee claimants are caught in the political ‘limbo’ of Canadian Immigration laws. “I am still a refugee,” says Concordia University professor Chengiah Ragavan, a South African refugee who arrived through London and hasbeen teaching in Quebec since 1981. “The aim is to go home. We’re not like immigrants. We have not come to settle; we want to return to a free country - a free South ’ Africa,” Ragavan said. Racial, cultural, political/military and economic persecution, combined with massive health and environmental threats, often force refugees to seek only temporary asylum in another country. As a refugee is usually unable to return to his home country, the distinction between an immigrant and a refugee usually centres around the latter’s willingness to be repatriated once conditions in at home permit. The Geneva Convention of 1951 defines refugees as people whose life or freedom is threatened. Not until the immigration act of 1976, when Canada adopted the principles of the convention, was the need for a distinct legal status for refugees recognized.

~ REFUGEES
However, Canada’s belated and limited recognition of the plight of refugees only provides those seeking asylum in Canada with a temporary status which includes no guarantee that they will not be sent elsewhere. Moreover, they n have no access to setices or employment in Canada. Chris Ferguson, a chaplain at McGill University’s Newman Centre and an activist for refugee rights, says Canadian law concerning refugees is based on a policy of ‘non-refusement.’

“This is best translated as ‘noninvoluntary repatriation’ ,” says Ferguson. “In other words, the law only says refugees cannot be sent back-against their will to a potentially life-threatening situation.‘* Rkfugees and g&ups lobbying .for their rights have been voicing their opposition to Bill C-24, the present Immigration Act, since 1975. A major reason for this protest is that the bureaucracy required to administer Bill C-24 causes painfully and dangerously long delays in the granting of refugee status. Although the Geneva Convention makes provisions for the basic forms of persecution listed above, Ferguson said the ambiguities in Canadian law can prevent a refugee from receiving desperately needed asylum. “A person living in a rural area of Guatemala, for example, where surrounding villages have been burnt down, and people have been

rap&d, robbed, tortured, and slaughtered, may not, because it hasn’t yet happened to them, be eligible for asylum in Canada,” Ferguson said. States a 1982 All Canadian Bulletin, “It is not beyond contemplation that a student or trade unionist in Guatemala, for example, could be murdered while waiting for a Canadian visa.” Under the Act, a claimant first requests status at a hearing. The refugee Status Advisory Committee then considers the hearing results to determine the claimant’s eligibil-

number-of Guatemalans allowed entry, and “it is now much more difficult for people undergoing severe repression today, to leave the country - especially the Mayans.” Though it is generally hard for Latinos and Mayans to enter Canada, it is even harder for them to leave their own countries. After considerable pressure from a coalition of refugee groups, a Supreme Court inquiry into the entire refugee determination pro cess in Canada was launched. The result was an April 4, 1985 ruling which declared that parts of Canada’s Immigration Act violate the rights of refugees as set out in the Canadian Charter of Rights, and the Universal Declaration of , Rights. ‘1 believe therefore that a ConiI vention Refugee who does not ’ 1’ have a safe haven is entitled to rely 1 on this country’s willingness to live I up to the obligations it has undertaken as a signatory to the United 1 Nations Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees,” said Justice B.

R REFU-SEES Citing the rate of unsuccessful demands at about 20 per centshe said that out of 85,000 refugees in Canada, only 1,200 claimants were admitted as refugees, while 25,000 ‘refugees’ - persons Gagnon describes as “selected from camps, embassies and universities,” are admitted based on immigration criteria. It is a clear indication of the way in which the government fulfills its international responsibility,” she said. An official at the Quebec Ministry of Immigration and Employ ment, who wished to remain anonymous, revealed that the Immigration Act of 1976 states that a refugee, once recognized as such by the Canadian Authorities, could be sponsored by a non-governmental organization and private groups of Canadian citizens willing to undertake leaal sbonsorshio.
“Instead, the government imposed a program of case-bycase review - which is difficult,” said Gagnon. “As well, it started out with a two month delay.” Gagnon said the review process, which began in early September, has examined 443 out of 11,000 refugee claimant cases in Quebec. ,“Out of those 443, 57 were delayed, 301 were accepted, and only six were admitted on ‘humanitarian’ grounds. “All the others were accepted on immigraton criteria - namely, that they had a jobI In other words, they had proof they could establish themselves quite properly here,” she said. Gagnon said 85 refugees refused status were “mostly on welfare.”

private practice
“From 1979’co 1982, more refugees came to Canada through these private sponsoring groups than through the government quota system,” Gagnon said. More than a thousand groups of at least ten people each were involved in the support of Vietnamese refugees during that period, she estimates. This new amendment has greatly increased the influx of people finding refuge in Canada, especially since the number of independently sponsored refugees is not included in the government quotas. Refugee quotas are stringently established each year on the basis of regional need. Only a few hundred places are not assigned to specific regions. This is to allow for emergency situations. Though public concern, in the form of private sponsorship, has helped push the government to increase the numbers it lets in, Gagnon says public misconceptions about certain refugee situations can often have the opposite effect. Of the recent arrival of over 100 Tamil refugees, Gagnon says “public reaction created a backlash of misinformation and prejudice. A lack of information makes people think there is a “flood’ of refugees and that a lack of rules allows them to enter into Canada unhindered,” she said.
Denis Rasico, a Montreal lawyer who works with the S.O.S. Refugee group, says a well-informed publc can be more sensitive. and is more willing to help refugees when it understands ‘the situation from which they come. Within 15 days of the Tarnils’ arrival, says Rasico, S.O.S. organized a vigil, and circulated a petition which received over

15,000 -signatures from the public. “This is a more significant representation of public reaction than the press had reported up until that time,” Rasico said. Gagnon said the reception of the large numbers of refugees entering Canada from Southeast Asia during the ‘boat people’ crisis several years ago “overwhelmed the government.” She also mentioned a group of people who, last year, broke the law by hiding a Guatemalan refugee in a Montreal church, so he would not have to return to his repressive country. “They felt that it was more important to protect his life than to respect Canadian law. It is a kind of civil disobe-
rights violations, Gagnon says, it faces a contradiction between its policy toward refugees and aid to the countries from which many of them come. “If Canada wants a fair and equitable policy toward refugees, it should establish fair practices here, and reflect this in its foreign policy to countries with human rights violations. “The Geneva Convention is not precise. It establishes minimum requirements for refugees’ rights, but leaves a lot of room and latitude for countries to establish their own rules. “There are no sanctions if you don’t respect the rule of the spirit of the Geneva agreement,” said Gagnon.

It may have been snowing steadily outside Fed Hall last Friday night but inside things were definitely cooking. The heat was courtesy of Canadian Reggae band The Sattalites, who were in town promoting their upcoming live .LP, If Friday’s show was any indication of the live recording, the LP is a definite must for any reggae fan (or music fan for that matter). Taking the stage about 10 p.m., the nine-piece outfit grooved the entire building with their inexhaustible energy and infectious riddims which, after some coaxing, forced most of the crowd to its feet. Once the audience finally became involved, The Sattalites really let loose with their brand of reggae which relies heavily on a tight horn section and solid backbeat. Although the majority of the
songs were originals, the band also treated the audience to a version of the Beatles’ She -Loves You (in a Sattalite style) that would have impressed both Lennon and Marley, as well as a hot rendition of Walking On Sunshine (yes, the one by -Katrina and the Waves). Oh sure, there was the gratuitous Bob Marley tune but The Sattalites definitely did the late, great Bob proud with their version. All in all a solid show and one that was definitely welcome in the midst of this drab winter (a little sunsplash in January, if you will). If you missed The Sattalites be sure to check them out as soon as possible and keep your ears peeled for their live album which should be in stores soon. Until that time you can satiate your ridmic desires by skanking on down to the Princess Cinema to see Errol1 Blackwood (ex-Messenjah) and The Gayap Rhythm Drummers on January 25.

The Turret staff (is being over 6’3” and 240 lbs. requisite to being hired by The Turret or what?) wore “toldyou-so-now-let’s-hear-The Boss” looks of amused tolerance. And the audience, well, the audience reaction ranged from total delight to “Isn’t tonight supposed to be a beach party?” Of course, if you were looking for the impeccably-crafted, tasteful rock of, say, Dire Straits, The Turret was not the place to be last Montreal’s garage Wednesday. hoodlums The Gruesomes assaulted the normally sedate surroundings of Laurierland with a brutal attack of primitive ’60s rock ‘n’ roll and raging hormones. Appropriately enough for a concert taking place in the “high school down the street”, the whole night seemed like attending a high school dance in 1966. The Gruesomes took the stage like four of the school’s ne’er-do-well’s, barely rehearsed and figuring out their song list five minutes before the show; donning moptops and turtlenecks; getting paid next to nothing and hoping for nothing more than to impress the chicks in the audience. There are no surprises in a Gruesomes show. The faves on their ultra-cool debut album on Og, The Tyrants of Teen Trash, from Theme From Bikers From Hell to the nervy testament of teen paranoia, What’s Your Problem were ransacked in classic “it’s not whether you know how to play all the chords, it’s how you play the song” style. The covers-were predictable enough, including the obliga, tory Gloria and Louie Louie - the first two songs any bunch of kids trashing their parents’ garage learn how to play - and The Chocolate Watchband’s Elmore James rip-off, Sitting Here Standing (minus the slide). But don’t get the idea that The Gruesomes aren’t worth your time. Amateurish, sure. Only three chords, sure, but they get a lot of mileage out of those three chords. And who wants to hear a bunch of virtuosos bore you to death with their importance anyway? The Gruesomes are a blast, as testified to by the crowd’s (well over two hundred) wild response and reck-

The Turret, however, is close enough for UW students, who made up the bulk of The Gruesomes audience, and is much less intimidating to both the band and the audience due to its smaller size. With the continued efforts of the Oxygen Party organizers, maybe we’ll be lucky enough to see great live acts like Ray Condo, Blue Rodeo, UIC, Vital Sines, Jeff Hatcher, and Change of Heart back in town before long.

R & B special by Tim Imprint
by Chris Wodskou Imprint staff Aretha Franklin possesses a monstrous voice that can send shivers down the spine of a week-old cadaver, but until recently, much of her finest work was unavailable outside used record stores. Now, with WEA’s reissuing of the 1968 classic Lady Soul, Aretha is back on the racks at a bargain price and at the pinnacle of her brilliant career. Lady Soul is a stunning testament to Aretha’s ability to not only do a cover justice, but to turn some’ one else’s song into something completely her own. When her divine pipes aren’t kicking the butt right off
notic groove on Don Covay’s Chain of Fools. Everyone thinks of The Rascals when they hear the lazy lilt of Groouin’, but even here, Aretha takes a well-known song and turns it into something far richer and more stirring than you could possibly imagine . __---The real highlights of Lady Soul are, of course, those songs where her voice completely dominates and overwhelms the understated accompaniment of such soul stars as Bobby Womack and King Curtis

While looking through my older sister’s record collection in what must have been in 1976 (I was still in high-school at the time), I stumbled across a battered copy of the Otis Redding/Carla Thomas LP King and Queen. A 25 cent price tag, some nutty open letter from the senator of Tennessee on the back and song titles Ooh Carla, Ooh Otis was reason enough for a test spin. Sliding out the unsleeved disc, I found that it was the wrong record. “My dumb sister got ripped off at some garage sale,” I thought ‘with feelings of satisfaction in knowing she was not infallible and disappointment in not hearing Otis sing Trump. The record in my hands was on the same STAX label but it was instead called Memphis Gold Volume II. Many of the song titles and artists were unfamiliar to me but since it #was already out, I slapped it on her wornout record player. Eddie Floyd’s Knock On Wood had a groovin’ beat but it wasn’t fast enough for my liking and Sam and Dave’s ballad sounded just too sad. As it turned out, the song that floored me was Everybody Loves A Winner (But When You Lose, You Lose Alone) by somebody named William Bell. Eventhough that song was slower than Eddie Floyd’s and far more sad than Sam and Dave’s, I felt compelled to keep pulling the tone arm back to that track again and again for the next hour or so. This continued everyday after school for the next few months. Here at last was someone talking directly to me about things I could relate to. His voice troubled and beat yet seemed upward looking. No one I knew had

at STAX. Though a long time in coming, many thanks are .due Kim Cooke at WEA for helping to recover this work of soul artistry and offer it at a reduced price.
Probably the most underrated of all vocal performers in the STAX/VOLT label family, William Bell (born William Yarborough) is best known as a staff writer for STAX (most notably for the oft-covered
Yoir Don’t Miss Your Water) He began singing while still attending Booker T. Washington Highschool in Memphis with a vocal group called the Del Rios. While hanging around with Booker T. Jones (of Booker T. and the M.G.s) he began to write songs for the fled- gling STAX record company which Booker T. was involved with. There he met with producer Chips Moman who had heard of Bell’s singing and asked him to record a single for the label. You Don’t Miss Your Water was released early in 1962 becoming a regional hit and cracking the top 100 that spring. Bell was now the first male solo star on STAX. Drafted into military service in 1963, Bell returned to the label in 1965 to find he had been replaced by the young, and far more colourful Otis Redding. Although Bell continued to write and sing with the eloquence of old, STAX in his absence had found it more profitable to invest their promotional dollars and studio time in artists of current favour like Sam and Dave and Otis Redding. The best of the songs that Bell recorded for the label between 1962 and 1966 were compiled and released on his first LP The Soul Of A Bell in 1967. About William Bell, Peter Guralnick in his well-researched volume on Southern soul Sweet Soul Music (c.1986 Fitzhenry & Whiteside) has said: “The writing probably most resembled that of William’s hero, Sam Cooke, while the voice, neither a powerhouse instrument like Solomon Burke’s or Wilson Pickett’s, nor a soul-wrenching cry like Otis Redding’s was perfectly- suited to the spare elegance of the message, unselfconsciously complimentary to the compositional technique.” Combined with the musical accompaniment of the STAX houseband Booker T. and the M.G.s during their mid-sixties peak, these recordings of William Bell rank among the very best ever produced

The Stax-Volt axis -of Memphis soul was responsible for much of the ‘60’s hardest, deepest, most moving soul. Otis Redding, as most folks know, was at the fore of this movement, his hoarse pleas helping to define a whole style of soul singing. Carla Thomas, the daughter of R&B star Rufus Thomas, was known as the queen of Memphis soul. So the reissue of King and Queen should be cause .for celebration. It should be, but when compared to the Aretha Franklin and other Otis Redding reissues, it’s really less

Apollo Saturday Night as the title suggests is a live recording of a soul/R ‘n’ B revue at the famed Apollo Theatre on Nov. 16, 1963. The headliner for the evening was Ben E. King now~ performing solo after having left the Drifters. His recording of Stand By Me had just made its first big splash. That song, along with two other King standards Don’t Play That Song (cut from the same cloth as Stand By Me) and Groouin’are included on this LP. The album’s highlight however comes from another performer, virtually an unknown at the time, making his first Apollo appearance on this particular night. A young Otis Redding took the stage and the hearts of numerous females (as we can surmise from the squeals) with smoldering renditions of two of his greatest pieces Pain In My Heart and These Arms.ofMine. The heartfelt ache is there like it never would be again, Otis left nothing to the imagination. Apart from the ScreamingZFound

The biggest minus on King And Queen, however, is a hugely disappointing version of Sam Cooke’s absolutely wonderful Bring It On Home To Me. Otis sounds like he’s only going through the motions and more importantly, it’s just not an appropriate song for a duet. The desperation of a man faced with losing the one thing in the worlds that’s important to him .. seems almost triv/
than essential. The 10 covers are performed adequately, but, unlike Aretha, the covers are not passionate or lively enough to favourably’ compare with other versions.

ialized by splitting it up into two perspectives, watering down the single-minded urgency of a soul classic. This shouldn’t be construed as anything less than a good album, though. The choice of material, with the possible exception of It Takes Two (remember Donny and Marie?), is solid and the one original, Ooh Carla Ooh Otis, is great. But if you already own the originals or better covers, King and Queen is just unnecessary. l

by Paul Done Imprint staff Though it was Sam & Dave who sang Soul Man, the consummate “Soul Man” was Otis Redding. His gruff tenor and superhot live shows made him, along with James Brown, the most popular soul performer of the mid-late ’60s. With his tragic death in December 1967, soul music had lost its most popular and charismatic performer for a second time (the first time being the death of Sam Cooke). Beyond the obvious chart successes that he racked up, Otis’ constant touring to Europe and beyond helped push soul’s worldwide popularity to previously unscaled heights. With his death soul music seemed to lose the expansionary drive that it had during his life. Otis grew up in Macon, Georgia and was profoundly influenced by another Macon resident - Little Ri-
the
chard. The other great musical influence for Otis was Sam Cooke, whose Shake became a favorite in Otis’ repertoire. Otis Redding’s first professional music experience came singing with Johnny Perkins and The Pinetoppers, whose tough Southern College touring was fine preparation for the “Chitlin’ Circuit” concerts that would follow during Otis solo career. Otis got his break when he was allowed-to record his own composition, These Arms of Mine at the tail end of a Pinetoppers’ session. These Arms , his first recording, became his first hit, peaking at #20 on the R ‘n’ B charts in 1962. From there he recorded Pain In My Heart ‘and a whole series of pleading ballads which gained him the title of “Mr. Pitiful”. Throughout his career, ballads remained Otis’ favorite form of expression despite the fact that soul stompers were the fastest way to win over white audiences. It is fitting that Otis’ biggest hit was the tender, weary ballad, Dock Of, The Bay (composed by Otis, like the majority of his hits) whose success came, sadly, after Otis’ death. In mood, Dock Of The Buy closely resembles A Change Gonna Come: the first Sam Cooke single released after Sam’s death.

The core of Otis Redding’s recordings are the five LPs that he recorded for Stax/Volt records between 1964 and 1966: Pain In My Heart (released on Atlantic Records of which Stax was a subsidiary), The Great Otis Redding Sings Soul Ballads, Otis Blue, The Soul Album and The Otis Redding Dictionary of Soul. These albums are a part of that body of timeless LPs which show Western popular music in its highest form.

I just lost my song!! upon hearing Aretha Franklin’s version of Respect. He knew instantly that her version of the song would become the definitive version, despite the fact that his came first. With his high-octane reworking of Satisfaction, Otis repayed the Rolling Stones’ debt of admiration (they had covered Otis’ hit That’s How Strong My Love Is on their Out Of Our Heads LP). Pure hit material, the song was big on R ‘n’ B radio stations, but the overwhelming blackness of the record kept it from being a hit on white AM radio.

The Otis Redding Dictionary Of Soul was released in late 1966 and was Otis’ last LP before his death (many Greatest Hits LP’s and collections bf out-takes and lesserknown tracks were released after his death). Many critics view this as his finest LP, however Otis Blue was a far more balanced LP in contrast to Dictionary Of Soul’s heavy bias toward ballads. The better slow songs on Dictionary are as

Otis Blue, released in 1965 is arguably the finest of these records and contains many of Otis’ most moving ballads and his most powerful stompers.

The outstanding bal-’ lads include Z’ue Been Lowing You Too Long which ranks among the best two or three songs that Otis ever wrote.

enough to wrench tears from the stone-hearted. Elsewhere, Otis delivers a chillingly melancholy rendition of A Change Gonna Come.

Wisdom’s humour by John Zachariah Imprint staff
Wisdom, the new picture written by, directed by-and starring Emilio Estevez, is a cliche-soaked disaster of the worst kind, though it’s hard to I tell if the Son of Sheen is saying something meaningful or just pulling our legs. Regardless of whether Estevez is dead serious or tongue in cheek, his project is still uninspiring, and he gets no help from his offscreen girlfriend, Demi Moore, who plays his on-screen girlfriend, Karen ’ Simmons. Their performances are strained, though perhaps because Estevez’ screenplay is so lumpy, like cold, congealing gravy. The movie introduces us to John Wisdom (Estevez), an intelligent kid
in his early twenties, who can’t find a job because he stole and destroyed a car while under the influence on the night of his’graduation. Through an unbelievable plot complication, John decides to become a criminal for !the people, running into banks with an Uzi and destroying all the mortgage records therein. And through another dubious plot complication, his girlfriend decides to go on the lam with him, and they hit the road. together. Of course, things go sour and eventually, they get cornered by the law. But that’s only to be expected. It’s the dialogue and the impossible situations that’11 leave you clutching your sides, assuming the whole affair doesn’t offend your intelligence.

dom mixed with one part terror. As well, despite production efforts to the contrary, Platoon still comes off as “Hollywood”, what with all those pearly whites, fleshy biceps, and flawless faces. And finally, of course, Platoon is an American movie, so, while for once the Vietcong aren’t “the bad guys”, neither are the Yanks.
The movie Platoon has received rave reviews of late, and justly so: it is probably the best American movie on the Vietnam War yet made. Writer/director Oliver Stone leads us through his own experiences in Vietnam via Taylor (Charlie Sheen), an idealistic volunteer who goes in green and comes out black. As the audience follows Taylor’s transformation into something other than “a fake human being”, they are witness to a vivid front-line view of the tragedy, terror, and personal death that is war. transcends

The only valid reason on earth that exists for starting a rock ‘n’ roll band is the quest to get laid. The best rock ‘n’ roll has always been made by ugly, horny white males desperate to get fucked. Do you seriously think that a wretched-lip monster like Mick Jagger would ever have been laid if not for his participation in The Rolling Stones? Sadly, along the twisted road of pop music this singular fact about good rock ‘n’ roll seems to have been lost so we end up with boring old farts like Phil Collins and Huey Lewis - devoid of raging hormones - passing their pseudo-romance shit -off as rock ‘n’ roll! Screw That!! When we’re not putting up with crusty geezers like Phil and Huey, record companies force-feed us preening pretty boys like A-Ha and Duran Duran as “rock”. What the hell do guys like that know about not being able to get laid?? Nothing. That’s what!! The Beastie Boys are the world’s ugliest, horniest band. That gives them a solid shot at the title of “World’s Best Rock ‘n’ Roll Band”. They started out as a punk band and then realized one day that their chances of getting laid were a hell of a lot better as rappers. So as any genuinely sex-starved teens would, they -became a Hip-Hop group. Since the point of forming a band is getting laid, rapping has many advantages: you don’t have to spend years buying and learning instruments; there’s no need to spend time writing snappy tunes and you can do it just as well drunk as sober. All you need is a drum machine and a loud stereo and you’re ready for business. No fuss, no trouble.

No wonder darts is the fastest growing sport in North America! The first album-length offering from The Beasties, Licensed To Ill is a perfect synopsis of the beer, party and sex - above all, sex ethos of the horny teenager. From the juvenile braggadocio of Rhymin’ and Stealin’ across the whole LP to j?gh t For Your Right (to paaaaar- ty) - the anthem of mindless drinking - the Beasties and Rick Rubin have created a bible of teenage angst. . Rick Rubin, producer of RunDMC, Slayer and others lays the beats heavy and hard, adding metallic guitar when needed. He also drops some deathly hip scratches and found voices like the theme from The Mr. Ed Show and a clip from Gucci Time by Schooly-D. At times, Licenced To Ill veers too close to pure heavy metal, but when it finds a balance - like No SIeep Till Brooklyn - it’s the baddest rock ‘n’ roll LP in the Universe. The Beastie Boys are to the ’80s what The Rolling Stones were to the ’60s - ugly, horny rock ‘n’ roll beasts.

by Charles Mak Imprint staff With Should The World Fail To \ Fall Apart, Pete Murphy, ex-Bauhaus dreg and creator of the ill-conceived concept outfit .Dalis Car, along with Mick Karn, ex of the now defunct Japan, chalks up another disaster following the demise of the legendary gothic death band that he fronted. While Daniel Ash, David Jay and Kevin Haskins buggered to form the rather successful outfit Love and Rockets, Pete Murphy has
mented by raw instrumental energy. It is for this reason that Bauhaus and Murphy did so well for each other. Listen to such Bauhaus classics as
been trying hard to head off into some meaningful direction but can’t seem to find the good fortune that has been bestowed upon his former Bauhaus bandmates. Should The World Fail To Fall Apart is an album that goes nowhere as it lacks the originality and, more importantiy, the intensity and energy that Murphy is so capable of showing. He fits uncomfortably into the role of an artist with the wrong palate at hand. Murphy’s stark, minimalistic singing style is inappropriately backed-up by an overproduced layering of instruments that isn’t emotive enough to be of any help to his particular idiosyncracies. However well-intentioned producer Ivo Watts-Russell meant to be, he fails to realize that Murphy’s style can only be comple-

and not in Should The World Fail To Fall Apart, which incidentally does a half-assed rip-off of the old Pere Ubu number, Final Solution. That Beat. These records have all been driven by Keith LeBlanc’s constantly inventive combination of drum machine and conventional percussion. Major Malfuction contains some of his most incendiary drum work to date, especially on All You Drummers Listen Good, where his intense, complex drum patterns set a standard to which other drummers can onlv aspire. LeBlanc also brings his unique sense of rhythm to the noises and voices found on the LP.
Major Malfuction Keith LeBlunc ,World Records (Import)
Major Malfuction (sic) operates under the aesthetic of violence disharmony rules and melody is abandoned. Loud drums dominate while found snippets of voices and other songs battle their way into the mix only to be conquered by new voices and washes of harsh blacknoise - Darwinian noise where only the loud survive. Keith LeBlanc was the drummer for the legendary Sugarbill rhythm section which appeared on all those classic Sugarhill records: Grandmaster Flash’s The Message, That’s The Joint by Funky Four Plus One, Monster Jam by Spoonie Gee. The first sign that he was something far greater than a groovefor-hire was 1983’s No Sell Out entirely his creation where speeches of the great Malcolm X were edited over top of a unique, syncopated drum track which he created. 1984 sbw his involvement in The Enemy Within’s masterful Strike!: The most withering criticism of Margaret Thatcher’s actions during the British Miners’ strike put onto record. Strike! was named Record of The Year for 1984 by many critics.

The tracks on Major Malfuction blend into each other to create a spectacular, cohesive whole. Where other musicians see rhythm as a metronomic time-keeper, Keith LeBlanc has created an entire language of beat and rhythm with which to express himself. As they might say in New York, this ain’t just music, this is uuuuuuurt!.
Since then, Keith LeBlanc and the other members of the Sugarhill Rhythm section: bassist Doug Win+ bish and guitar player Skip McDonald have become the house band for British dubmaster Adrian Sherwood and the groups he is involved

Hockey Warriors by Jonathan Sadleir Imprint staff

Last Saturday saw the Waterloo Warriors add another win to their season with the downing of the Ryerson Rams 5-3. The Warriors who have been on a roll since the holidays came off the bench with their typically aggressive style of play as Balas and Dietrich began laying on the body early in the game to set the tone. Ryerson was the first to get on the board with a power play goal early in the period at the six minute mark. However, Jamie Mckee

Assists came from Dennis Wigle and Dan Tsandelis. Later in the period, Steve Balas, who demonstrated his characteristic hustle and intensity, scored a well earned goal on assists from Ken Butenhus and Chris Glover. Some excellent penalty-killing led by captain Dave Cole held the Ryerson Rams at one goal in the first period and allowed Jamie Maki from Steve Girardi and Scott
Hawks
by Mike McGraw Imprint staff With a 2-0 record and the CIAU No. 7 ranking under their belts, a trip down the itreet to Laurier for the Waterloo Warriors seemed like a sure victory. But the young Hawks were anything but intimidated by their The opponent’s reputation. Hawks put forth a spirited effort as they edged the Warriors Wednesday night in an 86-85 barnburner. Waterloo had upped its .+,record to 2-0 last Saurday at the PAC with a convincing 82-65 ’ victory over the Guelph Gryphons. Against Laurier, the Warriors never gained the control which they had in their previous two outings. Espe’cially noticeable was their lack of offensive reboudning, which had been so dominant last week at Western.

Once again Waterloo was shorthanded and once again Jamie Mckee came up big for the Warriors scoring a hard-fought goal off of a broken field run at the halfway,mark initiated by a pass from Wiggle. The Rams who seemed to lack intensity throughout the game seemed to lose all drive late in the third period failing to score on their lengthy power power play the period ending out 4-2. The Warriors played disciplined, if not exciting, hockey throughout the third to put one

The Hawks were virtually unstoppable from the perimeter, led by unsuspecting rookie guard Rob Galikowski, who poured in 31 points on the night. His scoring touch from the 3point stripe gave the Hawks an early 13-6 lead. The Warriors got on their game as the half progressed, thanks largely to the reliable play of Paul Boyce and Rob Froese. Waterloo led 43-37 at the half, and came out with a fury in the second, taking control with a 58-46 lead. Although Waterloo threatened to pull away, the Hawks always stayed within striking distance, getting buckets at key moments.

A post-period scrap left two Warriors and one Ram in the hole, allowing Ryerson to once again open the scoring with a power play goal early in the second period.

Boyce hit two free throws to put Waterloo ahead,, setting the stage for a dramatic ending, where the Hawks let the clock run down before going inside on the Warriors to notch the winning bucket with only 9 seconds remaining. The Boyce-Froese tandem accounted for 55 Warrior points - Boyce leading all scorers with- 32, with Froese counting 23. Jamie McNeil1 chipped in 12, as did the Hawks’ Syer. “We were never in control of that game for more than 2 or 3 minutes.” said ‘Coach Don McCrae of the loss,“We had many concentration lapses, you had to wonder who was supposed to be highly-touted here.” He praised Laurier for playing a hard, confident game. Said Galikowski, “even if this night be the only game we win :his year, it’s a big one, it’s a turning point. We knew this was going to be a tough year - we’re a young team.” The Warriors left nothing in doubt in their home opening drubbing of Guelph. Froese was chosen the game’s M.V.P. in this one, leading Waterloo with 19 points. McCrae praised his play, commenting, “Froese was our .key man, he helped a’lot of other guys play well. He’s part of the character of our team.” Froese was especially sharp in the first half where he scored 13 of his.total points. He played inspired ball, initiating and often finishing off many fast breaks, giving the Warriors total control ,of the game, and a 45-.24 lead at (the half. The officiating in. this game left quite a bit to be‘desired, and prompted both coaches to storm the sidelines on several occasions. The game became somewhat of a tedious affair, in the second half, revitalized only when Warrior rookie John Clark slammed home a pass and then came right back to convert a fast break. The second half also featured a Lawrence Taylor open-field tackle by Guelph’s burly Sid “Moose” Will, with Froese as his victim. Waterloo turned this one into a cakewalk as they widened their lead to 30 points by the mid-way

The Warriors worked hard to shut down last year’s OUAA scoring champ Jeff Root, who counted a good portion of his 20 points in desperation at the game’s end. 6'7" Sergio Bolzon used his size to score 15 points, muscling most of these baskets inside.

Peter Ross, a forward with the Marauders,, was named the OUAA Athlete Of The Week.
“It’s easy to flat-ten out after the Western game,” commented McCrae. “But you try to rise back. I’m quite pleased with this win, we played good defense.

school basketball championship. Mike played for one season at Brown University in Providence, RI on a basketball scholarship. In 1972, he was reunited with Coach McCrae when he enrolled at the University of Waterloo. Although Mike played just two and a half seasons for the Warriors, his accomplishments on the court will never be forgotten. In 1973, he established two senarate records: one when he hit-an astounding 24 field goals in one game, and the other when he poured in 52 points in a single match. On Jan. 12, 1975, tragedy struck. The Warriors were on an exhibition tour in Florida. Mike was sitting out these games while being treated for a suspected flu virus. He died of an infection which developed around the lining of his heart. In honour of Mike, the 1974-75 Warriors introduced only four players as their starting line-up for the duration of the season, as
Captain Phil Schlote, a former high school teammate of Mike’s abstained from the introductions. The Warriors went on to capture the CIAU Championship that year. At the end of the 197475 campaign, the CIAU introduced the Mike Moser Trophy, an award which is presented annually to the outstanding player in CIAU basketball. “The way he went at things, everybody -was touched by his life,” said Coach McCrae recently. “He represented a quality of life - it was a real loss- when he died.” At the time of his death, Mike was looking forward to the 1976 Montreal Olympics as a member of the Canadian national basketball team. His Olympic coaches had nothing but the utmost respect for Mike. Some of their thoughts at the time of his death included: “I never saw a player who worked as hard as Mike did”; “His ability to set goals for himself and then to work toward those goals is a model that we
could all follow”. The first Mike Moser Memorial Game was played on Feb. 1, 1975. The proceeds from the game’s $2 ticket price go to the CMike Moser Memorial Fund. This fund provides bursaries to a “third or fourth-year student in financial need who has an exemplary academic record and who has achieved a high level of accomplishment in extracurricular activities.” The award was first presented in 1976, when one receipient was awarded. The award has grown since 1976, assisting 45 students over the past 11 years. The 1987 winners will be announced at halftime of the Memorial Game. The game itself will begin at 8 p.m., and as mentioned, admission is $2. It features the currently seventh-ranked Warriors against an always tough York squad. The Yeoman have re-established their game after a sporadic Fall, and are once again a contender in the OUAA East.
Mike Moser Said McCrae of the Memorial Game, “we respect the quality of life Mike espoused. We maintain this respect by continuing this game and contributing to the, bursary.” Those who knew Mike Moser realized they had the privilege of knowing a very special person. Even if you didn’t know him, it’s easy to realize why everyone who knew him has a great deal of ‘respect and admiration for Mike, Moser.

Track and field records tumbleTrack and field records at Waterloo appear to be an endangered species, if early season performances represent any trends for future races.

A wee~k earlier, Mitro nipped Mark Inman’s 3000 meter record by a scant two tenths of a second as he strided to an 8:25.8 clocking. This mark is already in danger as it is likely that Mitro and All Canadian Andrew Krucker are expected to toe the line for Waterloo in Montreal on January 23.

Rookie, Jill Francis broke new ground on the track, as she moved away from her Cross Country strength to record a swift 4:59 for the 1500 meter distance. The team will ‘be competing this weekend on Saturday at York University and on Sunday at the Western Invitational.
After a long Christmas break and a tournament that will not be discussed here and never will be, the basketball Athenas started off their regular season at l-l going into last week’s games against Western and Guelph. They played a little bit better than they did at the end of 1986, taking early leads in both games, playing solid fundamental basketball, playing the way they are capable of. Unfortunately, the Western game saw one of those Athena scoring droughts in the last 5 minutes of the game which cost Waterloo a

Ranked third while Waterloo’s Mike Bishop hung on to 45 of 46 ‘for the, 2-l win. The Warriors five man unit system whereby the team is split into five units consisting of both offense and defense who practice together as a unit, coupled with the excellence of the players this season, is a major reason for their recent success. It has nroven more successful than the‘ usual method of alternating defense with set lines of forwards. Simply put, the initial idea was to create scoring units of two lines nicknamed White Lightning and Red Light while the Orange Crush and Black Magic lines would handle the defensive tasks. However, due to the depth of the team this year all lines have managed to prove themselves in terms of’getting goals. The penalty killers this year consist of captain Dave Cole, John Dietrich, assistant Todd Coulter, Andrew Smith and John Goodman not to mention Mike Bishop with his high performance goaltending. The power play being controlled by either the Red or White line. The system has proved thus far to b”e extremely successful and has managed to produce another Waterloo winner potentially worthy of the OUAA title.
the team travelled to Ottawa to train in the Gatineaus north of Hull. However, due to poor conditions, the team packed up and shuffled over to Hardwood Hills outside of Barrie. Since returning to Waterloo, skiers have been training on the North Campus adjacent to the Columbia Icefields, Laurel Creek, Chicopee and various other venues. Last weekend the ski team worked out at Laurel Creek on Saturday and journeyed to Eden Mills Sunday for the first taste of inter-university competition in the form of a time trial. The course in Eden Mills, just outside of Guelph, was a four-kilometre loop covered with four inches of freshly fallen snow which slowed the skiing down considerably. The course was in excellent condition despite the slow conditions. The time trial was informally run by Richard Lay of Waterloo’s engineering faculty along with some coaches from Guelph, McMaster and Waterloo. Also present were team members from the University of Guelph and McMaster. The women skied 12 kilometres - three times around the gently rolling loop - while the
men skied an additional loop for a 16 km. race. Both women and men from the Waterloo team dominated their races, with the women placing three of the top four finishers and the men taking seven of the top nine positions. ’ Leading the women with a first-place showing was Sue Schlatter followed by Lija Whittaker and Fiona Griffit hs in third and fourth positions. Jack Simpson led the men’s squad with a second-place finish despite a broken pole and a sore back. Coach Rich Rawling, Vlada Dvorcek, Cam Mahon, Bruce Klements, John Cowan and Dave Baerg followed close behind. Although the time trial was informal, it was an excellent chance to see some future competition and get a good race in as well. The team travels to London next week forthe first university cup race to be attended by all the top university ski teams. Later, the team returns to Eden Mills for the Guelph annual. This year’s team is stocked with talent, both women’s and men’s, and may very well prove to one of Waterloo’s biggest athletic successes this year.
Athena squash team fares well at Mac Invitational tourny The Athena squash team fared well at the 16th Annual McMaster Invitational Squash Tournament Jan. 9 and 10. Teams from Mac, Western, York and Pennsylvania also attended. Waterloo was represented by Diane Hutchison, Heather Moore, Janice Gladstone, Sandy Brundle, Mary Ann Overell, Diane Knebel and Sylvia Ounpull.
Moore played six grueling matches before losing to Western in the D flight finals. Ounpuu took the C flight without much contest, winning nine + consecutive games. Hutchison advanced to the semi-finals where she played superbly but lost 9-7 in the deciding game to Western’s number-one player Caroline Green, who went on to win the tousnament.
without several key players out with foul trouble. Waterloo played against Guelph the way they were playing at the beginning of the year, taking an early lead, keeping up the pace, and never relinquishing their intensity throughout the game. Sheila Windle came up with a superior effort, shooting 9 - for 11 from the floor ending with 19 points for the evening. Corinna Lueg was back after being ill, scoring 16 points and clearing 12 off the boards. Cindy Poag and Brenda Bowering both had strong games, hauling down IO
rebounds each. -The score was 28-21 at the half and the Athenas kept up the same pace in the second, settling for a 56-43 victory. The OWIAA West is shaping up to be a very tight division, with Laurier, Western, Brock, MacMaster, and Waterloo all vying for the playoffs. Last Wednesday, the Athenas played a .very important match against the undefeated Laurier Ladyhawks. Waterloo was looking to avenge an earlier loss to the Ladyhawks in 1986. A win would have put them in second place with Western behind Laurier.
Fans just looking for warmth, good hotdogs by Jonathan Sadleir Sports Editor Last Saturday the Ryerson Rams hosted the Warriors hockey team at their matchbox of an arena in Toronto. Moss Park arena located in the Mission district has a certain old world charm rivalled only by the pond Mac calls home in Hamilton. Experiences in both arenas leaves,:one shuddering, not to mention shivering, at the prospect of a return visit. Canadian university students - or, more relevantly, university sports enthusiasts - have long been awed by the immense crowds involved with NCAA sport.s. There is no doubt that much of this is due to the high quality of the athletes at the U.S colleges and the undying Alumni and student support. There is, however, another aspect to consider. The facilities at U.S colleges are vastly superior to most Canadian universities and as such fans are less inclined to be turned away by poor to non-existent seating and frightening weather conditions. No where is this more obvious than in the poor quality-of the average Southern-Ontario hockey rink. To most of you it matters not what the ice surface is like in any Canadian arena, what is important is the quality of the snack bar, the seating and the temperature inside. It is difficult to blame fans for not showing up for the Ryerson Rams hockey game; there is nowhere for them to sit and the ice surface is more suitable for bantam houseleague play (few arenas can boast the%possibility of a high scoring percentage from behind centre). This being the case why should fans have to pay the money, albeit minimal, to spend three hours in relative squalor. There is little excuse for varsity athletes, who devote much time and hard work for their respective universities, to be forced to play in arenas that the average industrial league would be embarrassed to call home. Closer to home, Waterloo students can boast about an above average ice surface and excellent change rooms, however the seating (what littl , there is) leaves much to be desired. In most arenas there are littl s or no facilities for the press, information on players and teams is .hard to come by and the hot-dogs are totally unsatisfactory. If administrations at various levels are grumbling about lack of support from their various student populations they should first take a good hard look at there own commitment. Instead of forcing fans and playersto fill below-par establishments or crowd into poor seating with poor fan facilities, they should improve the situation to draw the fan support and create some pride for the team and for the university in general. No one is asking for a dome, just some warmth and good hotdog. ,

Athlete of the Week Cindy Poag Basketball
The male Athlete of the Week once again is Paul Boyce from the Warrior basketball team. This year Paul has been selected to the All-Star team at all five tournaments the Warriors have entered. Paul scored 25 points and took 12 punishing rebounds in the Western game. Last Saturday he continued his domination as he poured in 18 points and managed seven rebounds. He was an honourable mention All-Canadian last year and is a good bet for first string on this year’s All-Canadian team.
The female Athlete of the Week is Cindy Poag of the Athenas basketball team. Cindy is leading the team in total assists and foul shooting percentage. She is second on the team in scoring, averaging 11 points per game, and is also second in rebounding. Last week Cindy scored 24 points and grabbed seven rebounds in a tough loss to Western, while she counted 10 points and 10 rebounds in a victory over Guelph.
