by Mike Brown Imprint staff

Eight days and a ballot recount has elapsed since president-elect Ted Carlton was declared winner of the top spot in the Federation of,Students. Carlton not only survived the recount but came out of it with an additional 27 votes, bringing the margin which separates Carlton from nearest opponent Ian Mitchell up to 108 (represents a difference between Mitchell and Carlton of three per cent of the total cast vote). Only 24 per cent

of the eligible electorate voted February10and 11. In an interview this week, Carlton told the Imprint some of the issues and problems which will take a high priority in his administration. Internal issues are prominent on Carlton’s agenda: increased numbers of students must be directly involved with the Federation; traditions need to be developed, unification of the campus is a goal; an investigation of the co-op fee and a complete administration account of it is necessary; the support and facilities for athletics must improve; two-

l

way communication between the Federation and the students must improve; and Fed finances must be analyzed. Carlton is very keen on internal issues citing the need to “change the feeling on campus’:; however, external issues were high on Carlton’s agenda as well: community awareness of the student community must increase with some sort of student representation on city council; the funding problem needs scrutiny in the areas of class size, lab size, differential fees, and accessibility; and the question of joining ‘the Canadian

Federation of Students should be decided upon. Carlton mused that it was still only one week after his victory so as a consequence, different strategies as well asissues may arise. Fraternities, women’s issues and published course evaluations were subjects which also came up in the interview. Carlton is opposed to fiats, sup portive of women’s issues, and is now mildly in favour of publishing course evaluations although he declared that the course and professor post-mortems would be expensive and low in priority. Against fiats - Why? Carlton says “the structure of the group is simply discriminatory in nature”. Carlton plans on supporting women’s issues by remaining antifraternity, .and among other things, . . by expanding the safety van operation and by going back into battle over the campus lighting problem. The president-elect is concerned with “too much structure” at UW. He elaborated to say that Waterloo might be over job-skills-oriented with the result of too much time being taken up with crammed in assignments at the expense of robbing time away from extra-curricular activities. The university’s plan for its fourth decade calls attention to this over structuring problem as well. In the aftermath of Carlton’s victory, some students have indicated a

t

L fear of Engineering domination. The fear is further substantiated in some minds because of the election of Andrew Abouchar, also an Engineer, to the post of vice-president - operations and finance. “To me that’s not an issue . . . people will see pretty quickly that those fears are not justified”, says P--IL-Lartton. The rest of the Ted Carlton story will be forthcoming; however, if-Ted gets his way, he might be the author of a new Federation column appearing in the imprint*

Ernie and Bert help e Optom-etry check twins by Alan Vanderhoek Imprint staff J

Perennial Sesame Street favourites Ernie and Bert were integral members of the team in an optometric research study performed- recently. On February 6, Dr. Rick Wiggins of the School of Optometry directed the testing of 23 sets of identical and fraternal twins in an effort to determine their visual similarities and differences compared to each other and to the general population. The children, ranging in age from 6 months to 9 years, are part of a long-term study, this being the third consecutive year in which they have participated. The twins were con&ted-through ” twin clubs “ in the K-W, Guelph and Cambridge areas. Part of the difficulty of testing children in a clinical setting is their inability to concentrate for sustained periods. “Ernie and Bert are only a small part of the techniques we use to keep the children alert and interested,” Wiggins said. The examinations involved a full

assessment of the optical function and structural anatomy of the twins’ eyes, including comparison of refracting powers, visual acuities, retinal blood-vessel patterns and a host of other ocular features. Wiggins reports that the anatomical similarities between identical twins are remarkable, even when anticipated. “Given the fact that blood-vessel development is an environmentally influenced process, -it’s astonishing how identifiable twins are with respect to their retinal vasculature,” said Wiggins. Among fraternal twins, similarities are much less marked, being comparable to the norm between siblings. In one reported case, a twin diagnosed as emotionally disturbed was found to have severe visual problems, while the other twin was normal. Treatment of -the visual problems produced a dramatic improvement in behavior. A unique component of the research study was the use of recentlydeveloped ultrasound equipment to measure the axial lengths of the

2

twins’ eyes. Longer than average eyes have been implicated in such conditions as myopia (short-sightedness), where light rays are focused in. front of, rather than on, the retina. Wiggins hopes the study will shed some light on the genetic determi,nants of this condition. The ultrasound equipment, provided by Radionics Medical Inc., was also used to measure the shape and thickness of other ocular structures. The lens and cornea are the primary refracting components of the eye, and their measurements, when combined with known axial lengths, could possibly be used to estimate visual function even in newborn babies. Dr. James Yu, a Radionics engineer assisting with the equipment, claimed an accuracy of 0.01 mm. for its measurements, and expressed cautious optimism about this futuristic use of the technology. ’ Wiggins, an experienced pediatric clinician and researcher, was pleased with the high turnout for the project. Results may be delayed, however, due to a lack of funds for hiring ancillary research assistants.

A first-year UW accounting student fell victim to a vicious knife attack on - of all days - Valentine’s Day. Eighteen-year-old Lisa Beard suffered slashes to her face and stab wounds to her chest. Charged with two counts of aggravated assault is Selwyn Andrew Johnson, 23, of Kitchener. Also injured in the attack was Beard’s friend, 2 1-year-old Christine Stephens. She was wounded while trying to thwart the assailant’s attack on Beard. Stephens was admitted to hospital for observation and later released.

Beard’s roommate, Ali Cayenne, kicked Johnson several times in the side and head in an attempt to stop him. Johnson then chased Cayenne outside where he was arrested upon the arrival of the police. Johnson apparently arrived at the UW student’s apartment at 12:59 a.m. and demanded she go out with him. When she refused, Johnson allegedly began his attack Johnson currently is in a coma in University Hoispital in London after being found hanging in his jail cell at the Waterloo detention centre in Cambridge on February 15. Beard worked in Imprint office last term as Office Manager. No date has been set as of yet for Johnson’s court appearance.

According $0 Matt Certosimo, chairman of the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS), student govemments on university campuses have developed in such a way that the OFS has been able to move away from organizing students on a campus level and toward lobbying the provincial government on student issues.

All opinions on this page are strictly

those of the authors

-If You do nothing, nothing will be done by Cindy Long Imprint staff

_

The feature article in thisweek’s Imprint probably won’t be read. It’s well written, informative and pertinent to our situation as students. Indeed, the reason why most students won’t give it more than a cursory glance does not lie in the article itself. As university students, we are conscious of the fact that politics exist. We are know politicians are voted into office by people who go to the polls and vote on voting day. We know these politicians have a greater impact on government decisions than do individual citizens or even citizen groups. By now it has come to our attention that politicians care about votes. They want to get elected to office. We are cognizant of ail these things, but how often do we think about them? Are we really aware of the concept of democracy or do we merely have the information that it exists? Every 18-year-old living in Canada has a vote in municipal, provincial and federal elections. That includes most post-secondary students. You can bet that if university students were seen by politicians to be a significant sector of the voting public, underfunding would not be a problem. The OSAP form would be less complicated. Student grants would outnumber student loans. Unfortunately student turnout at the polls has traditionally been pathetically low. Most students couldn’t even make it halfway across campus to vote for a leader for the student union, a union that is only as powerful as its members make it. It’s time to break with tradition. To paraphrase a graduate student I was talking with: “If even one-tenth of university students in Ontario took the time to write a letter saying ‘You do something about underfunding of Ontario universities in the next six months or I’m going out to polls next election and vote for the other guy.‘, they’d start listening.” The six months clause is to prevent them from turning it into a campaign issue, to force action now. The letter would be sent to the local MP, MPP and Premier David Peterson. Of course, misallocation of available funds is as much a problem as a lack of funds, but that’s something we can work on at the Federation of Students level. How about it? It costs nothing to mail letters to politicians and time is free. Politicians actually pay attention to us all the time. They see our inaction and ignore us as a result. How would you prefer to be seen by your local MP: as a whining child or as the person directly responsible for the continued issuing of his pay cheque? The reason students won’t read the feature article this week is not that we don’t care about government indifference to our plight, but because we think .we are powerless-to effect political changes. We couldn’t be more wrong.

And now . .,. a few ramblings from the News Editor’s desk by Mike Brown Imprint staff What to do? What to do? was what echoed in my mind. I pondered and I pondered. An insightful piece was needed to fill a gaping hole on the Comment page and the boss delegated the job to me. I have always thought about exposing Via Rail Canada’s passenger cars as Via Rail Death Traps. Have any of you train riders noticed as you sit in your seat, staring up and down the aisle way that there are no escape windows, no escape hatches in the ceiling of the car, and no obvious signs of fire axes, extinguishers or useful panic buttons. Now all of these missing features are not commonplace through-out the public transport industry. City and inter-city buses are better equipped than the standard Via Trains; TTC subways and GO trains boast several emer‘gency devices, so what is Via’s excuse. Via’s new LRT’s are a different story, life saving features are in plain view upon casual scrutiny; however, most of the passenger travel is conducted by the old Via museum pieces. How is it that no safety upgrading has been undertaken by Via officials on their old stock. In the meantime, its hardly possible to be 100 per cent sure that train accidents are a thing of the past. The news headlines over the past two years say it is simply not the case. If I had chosen to save my queries into Via Rail safety for a later date, I might have chosen to talk about how you know you’re a loser when you return from Toronto from a nice sabbatical only to find that a pipe has ruptured in the ceiling of your basement apartment. This watery dilemma is exactly what happened to one Imprint reporter on Tuesday. I returned, accompanied with a cold, to find a water saturated ceiling, floor, and walls. The pull-out couch was soggy, the roommate’s bed was damp. Books, school notes, high school yearbooks, job references, a coffee table and more, much more, all demonstrated excellent capabilities in absorbing water. Now the residents of 243B are not idiots. They know that if the heat is turned off in the winter - the pipes will freeze and consequently explode. What these reading week bound guys did not count on was that because the lousy basement pipes were so poorly insulated, if the thermostat was turned down-to 60 degrees (F), in the event of a brutally cold day, the pipes might still burst. Now remember! Don’t feel to safe about Via Rail travel and don’t turn that thermostat down too low if you live in the standard, poorly constructed and ill-maintained student house or apartment.

Don’t wait ‘til tragedy hits to indulge in a little silliness by Marie Sedivy Imprint staff Very often, tragedy shocks us into reality. Today I found out a friend has cancer. The doctors give her two months to live. She’s about my age, intelligent, and pretty. I’ve always admired her. She has strength of character, and I’ve-always felt she would go far in life. It’s amazing how often we fall into the trap of thinking that because we’re young, nothing can happen to us. Our youth and ambitions are somehow supposed to protect us from all evil and misfortune. Well it doesn’t always work that way. I hadn’t seen this friend in a few mqnths, so when I saw her on my way to another friend’s place, I stopped to chat. I asked if she had seen a couple of mutual friends, and she told me she hadn’t seen anyone in the last while. “My health’s really bad,” she said. “Again?’ I asked. I remembered her having been sick quite often in the past while. She often looked run down. Then she told me she had cancer. She seemed to be taking it incredibly well. 1just stood there, unable to say anything other than “shit”. She was bubbling with energy. Come to think of it, I don’t remember ever seeing her look so cheerful. She said she had been going out partying and drinking with friends, sort of living it up. She figures she only has two months left so she might as well enjoy it. The irony is that for a long time, life wasn’t going too well for her. She mentioned how she used to think about killing herself, and sort of stopped caring about life in general. She said she had been merely existing. Finally, a few weeks ago, she had decided to start enjoying life, to start living. And now the doctors tell her she’s going to die anyway. As we chatted she mentioned how a few days ago she had gone up to a guy she found attractive and paid him

-_

a-compliment. Like many of us, he hadn’t known how to deal with a compliment from a stranger. She said she had started thinking how this person was probably going through university, occasionally feeling depressed about the things all students get depressed about. And why shouldn’t he know that somebody thinks he’s attractive? Too often we go through life so absorbed in the rat race that we never stop to say these things to people around us. We don’t say hi to acquaintances, we don’t - smile at strangers. My friend had seen this guy around for months, and only now did she say anything to him. Like my friend is doing now, I try to be friendly to people around me. I smile at people I regularly see in hallways. As a result, I’ve had strangers say hi to me. (I guess they figure that if someone is smiling at them, they must know him or her so they say hi.) I was once stopped and asked why I looked so happy. And after all, why shouldn’t I be happy? I’m enjoying life. I’m doing things I enjoy. I’m putting my energy into life, into living, into meeting the challenges of life head- . on. And although I’m not dying of cancer, if I was to die tomorrow, I think I’d be able to say I had given life my best shot. And after all, why shouldn’t 1 smile at strangers or crack a joke or indulge in a little silliness? It brightens my life, and maybe it’s brightened somebody else’s. It’s amazing what a kind word or a smile can do. Ask someone who’s dying. Ask anyone who’s ever been depressed. Why should I to wait until somebody’s dying? Why should I wait until I know I only have a few days or weeks to live? Especially when I can’t be sure even now that I’ll live to get home tonight. My friend was in a rush to get to work, so I gave her a hug and promised to get in touch with her in the next couple of days. What else can you say to a 20-year-old dying of cancer?

Gays ant God -don’t mix well To the editor, Chris, to my knowledge 1 do not personally know any gay people, consequently 1 avidly read your column in order to learn more about homosexuality. Unfortunately, your most recent articles have me somewhat distraught. My understanding is that you are writing from the perspective of one who is honestly trying to reconcile his faith in God with God’s teaching in the Bible. My

perspective in replying to you is that 1 want to know what God actually teaches. if God condones something (ex. homosexuality) them 1 am sinning if 1 condemn that same thing. Therefore, 1 want to know what God’s Word teaches regarding homosexuality in order that I may not sin. To answer this question, you correctly stated that we must interpret the Bible using the guidelines of context and culture but I am afraid

that you did not use this principle. You stated, “there are a multitude of rules and regulations (in the Bible) which simply do not apply in an enlightened society.” You are right except that their failure to apply has nothing to do with the enlightenment of society and everything to do with the purpose of Christ’s death. In the Old Testament there are two types of law, Ceremonial Law and Moral Law. The Ceremonial Law taught how to live a life pleasing and holy to God. Ceremonial Laws no longer apply to us because our faith in Jesus’ sacrifice for animal sacrifices were ceremonial our sins allows God to consider us issues. These were no longer necesholy. Some of your Old Testament sary with the coming of Christ bereferences (Lev. 11:6-7, 10-12; 17:10cause he became our ultimate 14; 19: 19,26,27) fall within the catesacrifice to God (see Heb lO:l-18). gory of Ceremonial Law which is In fact, Jesus himself declared that why they are foolish for us to obey. all things are “clean” in Mark Conversely, the Moral Law taught 7: 17:23 and again revealed it to the how to live without hurting each apostle Peter, recorded in Acts 10:9other and ourselves.

God and Sin: no harmony To the edit&, Chris Gerrard’s article titled “Rules and Regulations” in the “A Different Light” column Feb 13, contained a few points that I felt should be explored further. Chris, you mentioned that the only reason why homosexuality was condemned in the book of Leviticus was because God wanted to remove the Israelites from the pagan world and that was the only place in the Old Testament where homosexuality was banned. In response to this, I’d like to direct your attention to a few places in the Old Testament. Homosexuality, or any other kind of sexual immorality was hated by God throughout the Bible. In the very first book of the Bible, Genesis, the entire city of Sodom was destroyed by God because the city indulged in, among other things, homosexuality (Gen 18:20 - 19: I 29). Further on, in the book of Numbers, the Israelites . were involved in sexual immorality with women from another tribe. The result? A plague from God hit them and killed 24,000 people (Num 25: l9). It is true that certain practices were stopped with the coming of Christ in the New Testament. But we must be careful in distinguishing between moral and ceremonial issues in the Old Testament. For example, the forbidding of eating certain “unclean” animals and the practice of

Speek good Inglish eh? “ALL WET, JENN ‘TIL ALL WF;T~ . . nd a, ALL WET, JET A PLU ARRAY” To the editor, I was appalled by Neil Pateson’s, letter (Imprint, Feb 13) where he stated that “a new idea expressed poorly is better than a plagiarized idea expressed well’*. What about communicating your new idea? An exact written language is the best way to communicate what you mean, without ambiguity and double meaning. A precise grammar and spelling is mandatory if you want to be understood by someone who is not familiar with your idea or your own language. (Unless you are selfish enough to think you need not

The recent disagreement between the Mulroney government and Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford over the Canada-France : fishing agreement has sparked a flurry of media attention. The controversy has, 1 think, emphasized two central issues. Thefirst is the questionable quality of federal-provincial communications. The. second is the perceived importance of the east coast fishery on Canadian economic and cultural sovereignty. Neither of these issues are new since they pertain to foreign fishing rights in Canada. Newfoundland was a separate colony until 1949, but they have been battling the Dominion government over foreign fishing rights for over 200 years. In 1783, foreign fishing was controlled largely through the Treaty of Paris; that trealty was abrogated in 1812 and foreign fishing was once again limited by the convention in 18 18. The central government finally secured jurisdiction for international fishing agreements by passing in 1868 “an Act respecting Fishing by Foreign Vessels”. The prcmary purpose of the 1868 law -was to strengthen the Canadian position by centralizing negotiations

union

and thereby preventing the provinces from lobbying foreign countries on their own. The result of all this, of ’ course, was.(and still is) to emphasize the importance of federal-provincial communication so as to avoid any internal political tensionsThe issues of economic and cultural sovereignty as applied to the east coast fishery are no less strong today (some say more) than they were 200 years ago. ,lt ‘is thus surprising and politically myopic that given this strong provincial sentiment, the M ulroney government would not make a greater effort to reach an amicable agreement with New,foundland before settling with France. It may well be the case the Mulroney strategy was to force an agreement through quickly in hopes of future French concessions, gnticipating, but at the same time discounting some eastern reprisal. If such an action were true, however, it is clear the might of the reprisal was not fully appreciated nor was the declining state of federal-provincial relations. Had Mr. Mulroney read his historyibooks, he might have anticipated Newfoundland’s response. . I David Banks Independent Studies

To the editor, In response to a recent letter to the editor from Andy Hiebert (Imprint, Feb. 6), I wish td make this reply. I would have expected a fourthyear History student to possess some degree of intelligence, but it would appear that Andy is suffering from a prehistoric virus that is affecting his mental processes. Since Mr. Hiebert has made it into his fourth year of study at this institution, 1 would have thought that he would have

learned some valid and reliable research techniques that would enable him to preseni accurate information on a chosen topic. It is blatantly obviou’s that Andy’s research consists of watching those accurate documentaries depicting fraternity life that have emerged from Hollywood in the past years. The only accurate observation made by Andy is that fraternities and sororities discriminate on the basis of sex and, on that point, I must agree.

To the editor, It disturbs me to see, once again, an opponent of nuclear power using the same fallacious arguments to deceive the public on the issue of nuclear power safety. Again, we see trepidation of. nuclear waste disposal exposed in such arguments as “Plutonium is the most concentrated poison on earth”, etc. Indeed, the basis of many non-nuclear stances is that nuclear wastes cannot be deposited safely. This is simply untrue and, as we shall see, nuclear waste poses far less an environmental threat than -does ‘typical’ waste. Plutonium is usually used as an illustration of how toxic nuclear wastes are, but, although plutonium is very hazardous if taken into the lungs, it is not vee hazardous if taken into the stomach, and is very difficult to get airborne. There are many instances of workers ingesting plutonium and displaying no ill effects. True, it’s not the type of thing you would keep in your freezer, but you would be very unwise to keep nitric acid or phosgene gas around _I either! Another prominent point most ‘no-nukers’ fail to comprehend is the miniscule amounts of waste produced by a reactor. As stated by Petr Beckmann in The. Hazards of Not Going Nuclear, if all of the U.S. power capacity were nuclear, the total amount of wastes per person, per year would amount to one as-

pirin tablet. On the other hand, the amount of waste generated per person by coal-fired plants amounts to 320 pounds of ash and other poisons, of which as much as 10 per cent is spewed into the atmosphere causing thousands of deaths by cancer and heart, lung and other diseases. A one-gigawatt nuclear station produces over 600 times less waste than a comparable coal-fired station! Much isalso made of the half-life of the wastes. “Those wastes remain dangerous for 100,000 years” we are told. But did you ever stop to think that other hazardous wastes that we release into our environment all the time such as lead, arsenic and mercury have no half-lives at all? They are hazardous forever. According to R.G. Hart in l%e False Apocalypse, after about 150 years a nuclear waste repository, as we visualize it today, will contain the same toxicity as some naturally occurring lead deposits of equivalent size. The lead, howeyer, remains toxic forever while the nuclear waste will decay in time. I hope that I have brought to light some important facts about nuclear safety. There is no room in an issue this important for emotionally motivated, so called ‘social’ debate, for this only fosters deceptions and distortions of the facts. Only rational scientific truths must decide the fate of nuclear power. M. Steven Csele 2nd Yr. Chem.

“Real World” worst ever To the editor, Of the four years I’ve proudly attended this university never have I read so destructive an article in Imprint as was written in the “Real .World” column of the Feb. 6 1987 issue. Mr. Vanderhoek makes two arguments, albeit neither valid nor sound, in his “Pride in Apathy” article. The first is that student politicians, that is, those students who wish to occupy an elected position in the Federation of Students, are ambitious and greedy. Firstly, the positions of president and vice-president do not carry with them as much “power” as Mr. Vanderhoek thinks. If he had researched his claims he would have known that most important resolutions are made not by the executive, but by the students’ council. Secondly, the executives will I hardly get rich on their salaries. The president earns about $16,qOO for the year in office. The two V-Ps each earn about $7,OOO.One would ‘think that “greedy’* people would prefer to work ‘in the “real world” where much more money could ‘be made in the same period of time. Mr. Vgnderhoek’s second argument is that students cannot affect the way things are run on campus. The only reason this university exists is because there are people who wish to pay thousands of dollars a year to receive an education here. I don’t know about Mr. Vanderhoek, but when I spend that kind of money I want to ensure I am getting the best possible service. The president and vice-presidents serve to represent the interests of the student body. There-

I

fore I take special care to choose the people who I think will do the best job representing me and my interests. Mr. Vanderhoek’s argument is wrong . . . it really does matter a damn how we vote. Apathy appears to be high at this institution, not because students think their input is meaningless, but tither due to three factors that are unique to this school; namely, the co-op system, the lack of tradition, and a few people like Mr. Vanderhoek who propagate such nonsense. And I believe we can work around these impediments . . . or at least two of them. Ian Lipton 3B Political Science

‘No students? To the editor, On Monday night I went to see “Life After Hockey” at the Humanities Theatre (The play was quite goop I might add). Since I was working for the university for my workterm I was able to take advantage of a special offer for the faculty and staff, namely buy one ticket and get one free. When I called to make my order I found, much to my surprise, that there was not a similar offer for students. Now I realize that the normal student price is lower than the faculty price, but I just didn’t understand why everyone didn’t deserve the two for one deal. Someone please write and tell us why students were left out. Thanks. Todd Crick Chem. Eng.

In case you haven’t notice, Mr. Hiebert, there are numerous rooms on campus that possess discriminatory signs on their doors (ie.. men only - women only) but both of these types of rooms serve the same purpose. Therefore everyone is accommodated. As for all of Mr. Hiebert’s other accusations regarding the discriminatory policies of fraternities at U W, I have this to say: As the president of the newest fraternity dn campus, Phi Delta Gamma, a petitioning local of Phi Delta Theta, I can honestly report that no man has (or ever will be) been refused membership in our organization because he does not drive a BMW, wear a Rolex watch or a polo shirt. To date, otir membership consists of 25 men. These meti come from various ethnic backgrounds, geographical areas, possess different religious beliefs and represent a diverse sample of UW students. We are not all 6’ tall, possess blonde hair and blue eyes and we are not all athletic stars, but we do share a common bond. As fraternity brothers, we all believe in the con‘,cepts that fraternities foster: ‘friendship, benevolence, idealism, sound scholarship, honesty and inteeritv. As for our fraternity bei@ cdnfused with a ‘social service organization, we never claimed to be he, but , that aspect of fraternities is one that runs deep within our roots. The Phi Delta Gamma fraternity has, and will continue to, supported charitable organizations within this community in any way we can. We do this not to “boost the ego” of our members or to enhance our community image, but because we care. It is unfortunate that Mr. Hiebert is in his fourth-year because he won’t be around to watch all his accusastions fall by the wayside along with this campus’ memory of him. On the other hand, considering the apathetic nature that this campus has had in the past and Andy’s statement that “I like our university the way it is” it is to every student’s benefit that Andy will be graduating soon. I wonder, will Andy be back for Homecoming. Mark McColman President, Phi Delta Gamma 4B Kin.

Debunking: by Robert Day Imprint staff Last week, I dealt with some of the Biblical evidence against the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin and related the story of the denouncement of the Shroud by a clergyman when it first appeared in Lirey, France in 1357. Before bringing matters up to date, there are a few more points that deserve mention, if only for the sake of completeness. The first deals again with Biblical evidence, or rather, the total lack of it. In the New Testament, there is a singular lack of any reference to an image on the Shroud immediately after the resurrection. There seems to be no doubt that, had there been an image, it certainly would have come to the attention of Peter who, according to Luke 24:12, “ . . . beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed . . . “, while John 20:6 refers to Simon Peter who“... seeth the linen clothes. “. Very suspicious, no? I* ’ Another feature of the Shroud image is that it is exceedingly good - too good, in fact. There are absolut&ly none of the creases, folds or distortions that one would expect from a linen cloth wrapped around (or even draped over) a human body. The sheer perfection of the image is ‘one of its biggest drawbacks. And speaking of the image that one would “expect”, I fail to understand why anyone would expect an image of any kind. The tradition of shrouds is steeped in antiquity, and yet there is an embarrassing absence of tales referring to corpses imprinting recognizable images on their wrappings. Is there any reason to believe that the body of Jesus possessed some magical property that allowed this miracle to occur, yet pass unnoticed by his own disciples? (Oh boy, is that a leading question.) Anyway, enough of this Biblical chit-chat, on to more serious matters. Given all of the above and last week’s diatribe, common sense fairly demarids that the authenticity of the Shroud should not be taken seriously. Unfortunately, as my hero Harlan Ellison once said, “The two most common things in the universe are, hydrogen and stupidity.” Enter the Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP). Ignoring the overwhelming amounts of evidence that sug1gested a colossal waste of time on the part of everyone involved, the STURP team was brought together in the late-‘70s to bring to bear the latest technology in order to settIe this issue once and for all. And what a bizarre collection of individuals this was. Of the 40 members, 39 were either Baptists, Lutherans, Mormons, Episcopalians, Jews or Roman Catholics, with exactly one agnostic tot round out the group. This by itself doesn’t necessarily compromise the team’s objectivity, but it is certainly grounds for suspicion - it is virtually impos-

I am moved to comment on Mariaurora Mota’s letter (Imprint, Feb. 13) on unfairness to foreign students. At the risk of sounding like a red-necked bigot, I must say that I simply do not sympathize with foreign students being charged a sum less than $50 for unemployment insurance. A person coming into our country for education rather than staying in their own country should not complain if they have to help support less fortunate people in this country. The conclusion that they shouldn’t have to pay because they have a very limited chance of getting their money back is capitalistic and disgusting. Are we to not ’ give gifts to people unless we can get something back?

The Shroud II sible for this group of people to have been picked randomly, so someone was being very choosy. (And pay close attention to the idea of objectivity; it’s going to be popping up often.) A good indication of the peculiar mindsets of some of the STURP members is fo\und in the Good Friday, 1978 issue of the Los Alamos Monitor, where .three out of four of the local STURP members were apparently going public with their conclusions. The following quotes were among several attributed to these three scientists, and seem to leave no room for doubt. “I am forced to conclude that the image was formed by a burst ~ of radiant energy - light, if you will: I think there is no question gbout that. ” “The one possible alternative is that the images were created by a burst of radiant light, such as , Christ might have produced at the moment of resurrection. ” “I believe it through the eyes of .faith, and as a scientist I have seen evidence that it could be His , shroud. ” The author of the third quote is quite clearly being driven by his religious beliefs, but the first two are at least as interesting. The second quote refers to a burst of radiant light that Christ was expected to have produced during resurrection. This quote seems to go hand-in-hand with the hypothesis that the body of Jesus emitted a low-level flash of radiation at the moment of resurrection. I have1 yet to find a reliable source that states that the body of Jesus should have, for a brief instant, become a low-level beta source. But the most mind-bending part of all of this is that the above conclusions were reached six months before any of these people ever laid eyes on theshroud - the investigation did not start until October of that year. Another STURP member whose religious convictions seem to have got the best of him is pathologist Dr. Robert Bucklin, whose unbelievably detailed report on the Shroud concludes that “The medical data from the Shroud supports the resurrection”. Dr. Bucklin had a starring 1role in the film The Silent Witness, and the viewer was certainly left with the impression of a man who knew his job. Bucklin’s findings have been challenged, however, by an outside pathologist, Michael Baden, deputy chief medical examiner of New York for Queens County who has concluded that nearly all of Bucklin’s assertions concerning the Shroud are either dubious or incorrect. ’ And poor Dr. Bucklin makes it even more difficult for US to take him seriously since, in addition to being a pathologist, he is a member of the Executive Council of the Holy Shroud, Guild. . Next week, the concluding chapter on the Holy Shroud, including some of the more interesting test results, and more nagging issues of objectivity.

Questions you always wanted to ask a vegetarian, but were afraid to ask. Let it be established from the start, here, that asking questions to vegetarians’ will not ensure the same answers every time, just as asking questions to meat eaters won’t ensure consistency in responses either. The answers to these questions are the opinion of one individual vegetarian. . . me. If you know a veggie, why don’t you ask them the same questions -- I’m sure they won’t mind. Q. Do you ever crave meat? A. Oh no! . . . well maybe sometimes, but not to the point that I would ever eat some. Memories of thick bar-b-qued steaks - well done was how I liked them and veal cordon bleu will always be there, since my first 20 years of life brought such things my way every now and then. Sure, they tasted good, 1 certainly can’t deny that - but I have no desire to eat them. The smell of bacon and fresh perked coffee floating up to my room in the morning can sometimes make me weak for a while, but that’s‘a smell and not a taste. 1 think it stems from childhood memories -- psychological associations, you know. Q. Are you repulsed when you see people eat meat? A. No. My family eats meat, my roomates eat meat, some of my friends eat it too. If I were repulsed by the sight of it, I’d spend a lot of time offending people, while not furthering myself toward my main goal of not eating any myself.

Stubby Obituary-

by Greg Michdenko STUBBY, on February 28, 1987, aged 26 years, after a three-year illness caused by government betrayal, corporate abuse, and. consumer fickleness, passed away. A consumer prodigy, squat and gregarious, stubby enjoyed being packed into the most economical of spaces, knocked about, and jostled.. It rarely cracked up from rowdiness and usually made the rounds from friend to bottling plant to friend again some 30 times before cheerfully allowing its well-worn body to be melted down and reincarnated. A noted extrovert, stubby would visit any brewery: they all welcomed the same portly body, filled it with their particular brew, and sent him off to every home, no matter what its favoured brand. However, stubby’s infinite good nature eventually got it into trouble, as it neglected to insist that commitments in relationships be reciprocated. In 1984, the big breweries attributed the continuing per capita decline in beer consumption to public boredom with stubby’s old-fashioned corpulent shape and pressured the government to let a couple of newcomers swagger onto the scene. The first had a figure of dazzling American radiance, already fami1ia.r from the ads on the U.S. television channels. More than 10 per cent of stubby’s best friends callously deserted it in a flash, seduced by these wondrous blandishments, even though - somZpeople claim - “the beer inside tasted like diluted horse piss”. The trendoid stampede to old beer in new bottles was on. Soon there was a flood of imposters, all gussied up in different shapes, colours and labels. Some contained the same old Canadian beer, while others contained the same old Canadian beer that pretended to be Australian, American, or European beer. It didn’t seem to matter much what was inside. Stubby’s old buddies, whether swilling hoser or guzzling student gulping yuppie or tippling tycoon, all responded equally to the corporations hype and clutched wildly at the parade of new floozies and dandies in gaudy costumes. -Hundreds of millions of dollars were spent in re-tool-

Q. What would you do it you ate meat ‘by mistake sometime? Would you induce vomiting? A. No, don’t be silly. After a while you start to know which dishes you could find meat in “by mistake”, and you stay away from them. But if it did- happen, and it probably has, I’d just have to forget about it and go on. Many soups in restaurants are made with meat broth even cream soups sometimes, so its hard to avoid there. Fried foods are often deep fried in animal fat and things such as crackers, cookies and pies often have animal shortening in them. Lists of ingredients aren’t always available. All I can do is my best, you know. Q. Then, what is it’that you do eat? A. I eat a lot of fresh fruit and salads, potatoes, rice, pasta, squash, sandwiches, pizza, cheese, beans, muffins and sometimes even junk food. Most restaurants aren’t a big problem - except for Swiss Chalet. It’s hard to generalize, because I eat different things every day. Q. Do you spend a lot of time cooking? A. No. I’m a Biochemistry student - who has time to cook‘? Q. How can you justify wearing leather when you I don’t eat meat? A. I don’t eat leather either. . . . Q. Are you just doing this for attention? To be trendy? To lose weight? to be radical? A. No. So there you have it! A personal veggie testimony.

ing the bottling plants and writing off the abandoned stubby. Millions also had to be spent to expand the warehouses because the newcomers’ long necks meant ’ you could not house as many in the same space. More millions were frittered on the avalanche of advertisements. Countless hours of time had to be wasted by Brewers’ Retail workers sorting the arrogant newcomers, because they would only go to one brewery, and no other. And they cracked up much sooner - so more millions, ongoing for more frequent replacements. Another good old friend, the durable beer pack that could made eight rounds easily, was abandoned for a bunch of ne’er-do-wells only capable of one night stands. All this useless added expense to the beer drinker perhaps a half billion dollars in all, made no difference to stubby’s fate. The public remained crazed by the apparent variety. The market researchers for the big breweries had done their homework well: since fewer people were drinking beer, and less of it, the only way to expand sales was to grab someone else’s share. The government regulators refused to counter the pushiness of the breweries and abandoned any pretense of a rational beverage container policy. Stubby turned to its last supposed friends, the environmental organizations. There was some initial support, but they were too busy responding to other corporate blandishments.

produced just as easily and more cheaply with any neutron source. Nuclear power plants are not required to produce it. That millions in the underdeveloped nations of the world would die from starvation without cobalt-60 irradiation for food preservation is just not true. A food irradiator costs more than $2 million -- not a feasible investment for a poor country. Irradiation kills some bacteria

As a scientist 1 would like to correct some erroneous statements made by a fellow scientist on the Forum page of Imprint (Feb.6). The letter to which 1 refer claims that without CANDU reactors millions would die from cancer and starvation. While cobalt-60 is used for cancer therapy and is produced in the CANDU reactor, it can be

a Each has his own To the editor, * This is just a short note to Alfred (3rd-Yr Economics) who wrote to Imprint last week, but it will be of interest to anyone who wants to tell someone else about the way things are. ” God is inside me. God is inside you, Alfred,. and God is inside Chris Gerrard. God is inside everyone, homosexual or heterosexual, as surely as everyone possess a soul. What a marvelous thing it is, the human soul. The soul is the source of fundamental questions and, at the same time, the soul is the onlysource of answers to these questions. In the strong, dynamic soul the answers are developed through experiences in the physical continuum and through communications with other souls. But where t-he answers come from and how often they may’ change is not as important as that the soul have answers. Our souls must be satisfied, saved if you will, from the anxiety of confusion and meaninglessness. But as surely as my experiences differ from your experiences, my answers, the answers in my soul to

god

my soul, will differ from your answers. My God will differ from your God. All people believe in a different God, for even the weakest soul relies to some degree on personal experiences for answers. The differences among our Gods does not make one of us superior to the other, nor should it be a source of conflict. 1 understand that you have had experiences which are probably quite different from my own so that my God, my structure of beliefs, will not satisfy your soul no conflicts, no inequalities. My God does not approve of hatred. 1 have sinned in that i have hated. Chris’ God does not disapprove of homosexuality, neither does my own God. Indeed, my structure of beliefs holds love as-a concept above the physical continuum and views homosexual love as human love love between two “heart-mind-soul” triplets - and as such it should be cherished. But don’t believe as i do. Just understand that people can and must believe differently from yourself. dan schnabel 4th.yr Math

and mutates others, but many survive irradiation. For example, the bacteria that cause botulism and tetanus survive. Because irradiation can break chemical bonds, it can cause changes in nutritional value: Vitamins A, B, C and E are known to be depleted. Studies in the U.S. and the Soviet Union suggest that animals fed irradiated food may get increased testicular and other tumors and kidney disease and have a lowered survival rate. It is my opinion that food irradiation is an expensive technology developed to make money from surplus cobalt-60. Another erroneous statement is that “we may have to live with a small amount of waste” from nuclear power reactors. Canada is the largest uranium supplier in the world. There are more than 150 million tons of low level radioactive waste left exposed at various mine sites -- enough for a two lane highway one metre deep from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific. Cancer-causing radium is being leeched from these wastes into drinking water and radon gas into the air we breathe. Each reactor at Pickering requires the mining of70,000 tons of uranium ore per year. There is also the problem of radioactive waste from uranium refining at Port Hope. High level radioactive waste from spent fuel rods amounts to about 80 tons per year for each reactor. Finally there is the problem of the aging power plants. Nuclear power plants have a lifetime of from 15 to 30 years and then the entire plant becomes a radioactive waste problem. After years of bombardment by neutrons, the metal piping becomes brittle and structural deterioration and radioactive contamination occur. Retirement or decommis-

sioning of a single nuclear reactor is estimated to cost $1 million per year for the 100 or more years required for radioactive decay. From the mining of uranium to the decommissioning of a reactor,

.

the radioactive waste amounts to several million tons over the lifetime of a single small reactor. This is not a small amount of waste. Cynthia Folzer, Ph.D. Chemistry Department

In-the words of Andrew Abouchar, vice-president-elect (operations and finance) of the Federation of Students, the referendum support for the $3.50 increase in Federation fees is a “godsend’. “It just makes me so much more comfortable,” he said. This new op timism contrasts with the somewhat

optimistic dire warning he made during his campaign when he said the Federation is in for some lean years due to the costs of Fed Hall. There are three major costs of Fed Hall - the building mortgage, the cost overruns of %OO,OOO and the day-to-day operating costs such as paying the staff. The mortgage is being serviced by the s7.50/term in. cidental fee being paid by each student. Bar sales and other revenues

absorb the operating costs, but when Fed Hall first opened the costs outstripped the revenues. According to Abouchar, the operations have since been streamlined so the costs are in line with the revenues but the debts remain. Along with the cost over. runs, they add up to a large, although hopefully temporary debt. As a ‘result, any improvement or expansion of Fed services seemed out of the question, prompting Abouchar’s comment about lean years. The new fee will generate approximately s90,OOO per year. Part of this money will be applied to debt-reduction, but Abouchar’s emphasis is definitely on expansion and improvement of Fed services. He has five ideas which will require money. First, he would like to hire a fulltime researcher for the Fed office. This individual would research topics to effectively inform and advise the Feds. “A full-time staffer would ensure continuity from one administration to another,” he said. Abouchar is committed to improving entertainment on campus. seecifically in the form of one major big-name band per term. He wants to start by getting a major act in the coming summer term. He wants to give the Board of Entertainment (BENT) enouah monev to be free from the press&e of ha& ‘

(staff) - The benefits of drinking alcohol in moderation will be the focus of Alcohol Awareness Week, a UW Federation of Students-sponsored event which gets underway February ecI L3. Education Commissioner Merrill Albert said students need to be aware of the dangers of alcohol abuse. The week-long awareness campaign is intended to highlight the year-round activities of BACCHUS (Boost Alcohol Awareness Concerning the Health of University Students). “We want to raise people’s aware. ness about alcohol,” she said. “1 think it’s a fairly big problem on cam. pus.” During next week, a “speakeasy’ computer will be set up in the Campus Centre Great Hall (Mon., Tues., Wed.) and the Bombshelter (Thurs., Fri.). The computer asks each user a series of questions about his or her drinking habits and then provides a printed analysis. The computer is being loaned to UW by the Ontario Federation of Students. Also scheduled are breathalyzer tests in the Bombshelter (Mon. 7-10 p.m., Wed. 1-4 p.m. and Fri. 4-8 p.m.). Albert said the breathalyzer tests should make participants aware of their tolerance levels. Many people just guess at how much alcohol they can safely consume before driving _ and most usually overestimate, she said. Several members of the Federation executive, faculty societies and student council have been asked to abstain from drinking from February 23 until March 2. Each participant

Engineers plan bus push for Big Sisters (staff) - The Engineering Society’s annual bus push for Big Sisters takes place March 7.

Kitchener-Waterloo and Area Big Sisters is a charitable organization which matches girls ages four to 16 who may be experiencing social, emotional or family problems with women who have volunteered to be Big Sisters. Students are asked to support Big Sisters by pledging an engineer or by picking up a pledge form at the Engineering Society Office (CPH 1327).

ing to constantly break even. “In the past, if one concert failed to break even, the whole term’s allocation would be blown away. This way they can put on a variety of shows to cater to all tastes without having to worry about making money,” he explained. Abouchar will push to have this approved in the next budget. Another priority is to aggressively market the Feds, their services and events. He cited this year’s Wrnterfest as an example of a poorly advertised event. “They didn’t advertise until two days before, the event. By then, people had decided to go away for the weekend and it was too late,” he said. He wants to ensure that the next . chairman

money but in Abouchar’s opinion, the researcher is the only major drain on the Fed budget. His sixth priority is to implement a Fed bus going from Toronto to Waterloo and back This expansion will not require any money as the Fed bus is a self-sustaining service. Abouchar said there is sufficient demand for this added service so that it will also pay for itself. He is looking to bring this about by September. Abouchar is particularly concerned with long-range planning, emphasizing a five-year contingency plan. “We can’t just enjoythis money with no regard for future administrations. Especially since we have this

One of the activities planned included a trip tothe London Psychiatric Hospital which 1attended and was very impressed by the organization of the staff and organizers. We spent the day touring the hospital with a chance to go onto the wards to see what it was like inside. We also had an informative tour of the museum that they keep in the basement along with some of the original rooms used in the past. We also had an informative seminar about what is required if

Moving from traditional blues (both slow and up-tempo), to a deep south soul, and even to western honky-tonk, Luther Johnson delivered an evening which had something for everyone. Equal to his view of “playing what the people like . . . always-keep working that way”, his show moved the crowd to dance or to holler with enthusiasm.

The work of the choir was also very enjoyable - the high point of their performance was the baroque/animal quintet performance which managed to inject playfulness into a form which is usually associated with dourness and conservatism. As strange as it may sound, the primary flaw of the production was the lack of male cast members. As a result of this, women ended up playing mens’ roles - with unconvincing results.

Skinny Puppy, Moev, and Severed Heads, and Front 242 is sort of a culmination of electronic music, getting rid of gimmicky and fashionconscious crap and lifting all the best elements of those that have preceded them. Not surprisingly, since front man Richard 23 is one-third of the brilliant electro-terrorists Revolting Cocks along with Luc Van Acker and Ministry’s Al Jourgenson, Interception is a whole lot harder and harsher than the vast majority of the beats-per-minute world. Both songs on the 12”, Quite Unusual and Aggressiua, start with themes familiar to Skinny Puppy devotees, pulsing underbeat and distorted keyboards, but turn into something very different, especially with Quite Unusual. Noise gives place to melody, dissonance to fluidity. It’s still awesomely tough, making dancing imperative more than a voluntary act, but it also uses keyboard hooks.

An ugly eight minutes and nineteen seconds would be the best description of the Dave Howard Singers’ Rock On. Initially, one could get caught up in the ugliness as Dave and friends attack the David Essex classic, but before long the song becomes bothersome and boring. If Rock On was meant to be a “club” dance tune, it would have a hard time motivating the trendiest of jfolk to bop, or if the song was in‘tended to be a parody of rock ‘n’ roll ‘standards, Dave fails to even bring a ‘smile to one’s face. An example of Ihis attempted wit occurs at the midpoint of the song. Here Dave swings into an Alexei Didn’t You Kill My ,&other Sayle-like rap session as he begs everyone to Jump up and

down, higher and higher, until you massacre those blue suede shoes.’ He then continues to a tumultuous ending, flinging profanities left, right,’ and centre. Ugh, ugh, ugly! All is not lost for the DHS Rock On EP despite the initial eight minutes. The flip side opens with an excellent energetic bop tune, Nothing To Say. This song must be played loud, as the pulsating rhythm is capable of filling the dance floor with sound and people. Kill The F’atted Whore Back In Labrador finds. Dave actually singing this wonderful chorus over and over with a few la la la ‘s thrown in for good measure. A good track, as it’s poppy presence is a nice addition to the EP. Dave Howard left the Toronto music scene a couple years ago to‘ pursue his musical exploits overseas in England. The Rock On=EP was produced by Stranglers’ bassist J.J. Burnel, so maybe Dave will be returning to these shores exactly as he left, as just another back up act.

‘by Chris Wo dskou Imprint staff What can one say about The Cocteau Twins that hasn’t been already said, let alone that will make sense? mThe Cocteaus, as any critic who has tried to put their magic in verbal terms or anyone who has read the ’ resultant incomprehensible review will know, are well nigh indescribable, capable of reducing the most astute reviewer to a blathering idiot. e That out of the way (sort of as a disclaimer), The Cooteaus’ vast legions of fans will be frothing at the mouth to hear that Love’s Easy Tears, a 12” import released at the tail end of 1986, is yet another splen&did product of their formula. Robin Guthrie’s curiously distorted guitar trickles down in descending progressions of playful caressed -and Simon Raymonde thickens the entrancing swirl of instruments acoustic and electronic while Elizabeth 2 Fraser presides with seemingly meaningless, but passionate, syllabic wails. A welcome return to the sheer, emotive power of the pre-victorialand days, Love’s Easy Tears has all of Victorialand’s understated koeauty, but that beauty is intensified and richened by the greater authority.Fraser exercises with that golden larynx of hers - Liz has never sounded more clear and utterly commanding - and by the return to athe fore of percussion. Strange as it may seem for a band that has developed and reinforced its reputation with graceful, atmospheric music largely stripped bare of percussion, The Cocteaus use percussion as sagely and effectively as virtually @any white musician you care to think of. Not relegated to a beat-keeping device designed to wear shoes, Guthrie and co. turn drums into random, impressionistic thuds and mighty, moody crashes. *

Exactly why Love’s Easy Tears, and everything else in the Cocteau catalogue (they are now up to 12 releases by my count),, is so goosepimpling is something of a mystery. It’s a simple formula and everything *sounds sort of the same, but they can do more with one chord progression than most people can do with every major, augmented, and minor seventh I diminished chord ever devised. Don’t question how or why it works, just be thankful that it does and enjoy it. The Moon And The Melodies is a different affair altogether, however. Never ones for Who-rivalling decibel levels and ritual destruction of their instruments, things didn’t rhugur all that well for The Moon And The Melodies, what with the news that it’s a collaboration with Mr. Aural Wallpaper-, and Brian Eno-sidekic k, pianist Harold Budd. And it is a subdued effort even by The Cocteaus’ mellow standards; ‘you’ll have to turn your Walkman up loud if you want to hear this on the bus. But prepared as I was to be bored silly to the point of total!y disregarding the music (as usually happens when Eno crawls out of the *speakers), it was no disappointment to find that this is by no means background music.

I

The opening cut, Our Garage, sets a perspective for the remaining For starters, the first and last songs on each side are Liz Fraser showcases, cut from the same cloth as the better part of Victorialand, and you could do a lot worse than that. The remaining four tracks represent the next logical progression for The Cocteaus with Harold Budd replacing Fraser as vocalist, if you will. For all his reputation (good or bad, depending on your taste) as an ambient artiste, Budd is really a master or subtlety, not a purveyor of easily ignored music. Single piano notes, just sufficiently off-key to make you wince slightly while building an enticing tension, plink resonantly into the undulating current of guitars and synths like drops of rain into a marshy pond at the beginning of a sunshower. The Moon And The Melodies is an astonishingly sensual and involving record considering the nature of the music and is actually an encouraging sign that The Cocteaus will not be content to stay planted in the same formula until it runs dry. An eminent British music paper called their music “a kind of worship” but that says more about a reviewer’s unwillingness to admit an inability to adequately grasp the meaning of their music than about The Cocteau Twins. And that, I suspect, is beside the point. You could analyze and pick apart their music until you’re a hundred years old and still not be any further ahead than you were when you *started. A music this intuitive .and organic simply defies and transcends analysis - how can you describe pure inspiration? May their muse continue to smile on them.

Change by Chris Wodskou Imprint staff Looking for a change of pace from the doldrums we’ve been stranded in lately concert-wise? Look no further than the City Hotel (across from Waterloo Town Square) tomorrow night (Saturday) for a February blah-melting dose of Toronto’s Change of Heart. Recently returned from an extensive tour which took them all the way to the Pacific shore to promote their album, 50 Ft. Up, Change of Heart are a young band which rapidly climbed up the T.O. Queen Street hierarchy of bar-bands to the point where they are now one of clubland’s steadiest and biggest draws. 50 Ft. Up, one of the best albums recorded by a Canadian band, or

songs; the lyrics stating “we can play . . . slam . . . jam all night long”, are garage-punks sentiments (or lack there of). The most political song, Strange Sin, reflects on today’s cheap (dare say cheated) generation, with plenty of musical crunch to couple the wordy cynicism. A load of screaming guitar riffs give the traditional rock sound of Shamrock Bang a butt kicking appeal, and Bomb Boys has good grit to follow. The hatred of overproduced records generated a counter-attack of groups producing garage sludge, and U.I.C. fell to this level with Blood. The fuzz guitar washes out any chance at an energetic bop.

Nushuille Dreamin commences side-2 as a thrashy southern rocker, and All Together Now is a tune which you will love if you enjoy the best that the Ramones had to offer. A speedy surf inspired riff drives Drive Me Mad, and the cover song I’m Alive pounds out the beat. The fun frolic of booze, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll is summed up in Crop Dwstin. A band which hails “the clash, the.stones, and the dave Clarke five” can not be all bad, but this song should have been two minutes in length, not five - a bit overindulgent. Overall this is a good album, though U.I.C. makes the mistake, at times, of hiding behind under-production in hopes of creating energy. These down to earth rockers are .entertaining on their first album, but they really kick butt live. Though we at Imprint have, cried wolf before, the news in the wind has told us that U.I.C. is playing Level 21 on Friday, February 20.

Over the Top just _ more pap from Sly by John Zachariah Imprint staff Leave it to Stallone to produce something completely unoriginal and boring. Over the Top is nothing but an arm wrestling Rocky, but here, Sly is trying to win the love of his estranged, mousy son and not the love of Talia Shire, who is also mousy. In this picture, Sly plays Lincoln Hawk, a freelance trucker, who picks up his son from military academy after graduation to take him to his mother. Hawk deserted his wife and son years before because of pressure placed upon him by his father-in-law. Hawk’s son learns that his dad makes most of

his money arm-wrestling, and that his old man intends to compete at the world arm wrestling championships in Las Vegas. With his winnings, he’ll buy a small trucking company. Not a cliche. Of course, the father-in-law is trying to come between Hawk and his son, and Hawk must surmount many obstacles before he can finally win both his son’s love and the arm wrestling title (whoops, I gave the ending away). The acting is so uniformly bad, its not even worth commenting on. Suffice it to say that Over the Top is just the sort of product one would expect from a Stallone/Golan,/Globus collabora2 tion.

At the last Folk and Blues coffeehouse, held on Feb. 6, from 8 p.m. until 1 p.m., an enjoyable feeling of warmth (physical and emotional) was generated in the Grad House TV room.

Chris Wodskou reads several poems he has written; on phones:

Monday, February 2, around 7 o’clock, I was sitting in the Bombshelter ordering my second beer, reading through my thesis for the nth time 3and a member of the English Society approached me and asked if I would like to go to a poetry reading being held in the Graduate Lounge of the Psychology Building. Overcome with a Ginsberg-like interest (slightly skeptical), I decided to “compliment” my otherwise technically-oriented work week with some good, old-fashioned esoteric exploratiqn. Besides, very few events boast no charge and a free beer at the door (poetry in and. of itself?!). Now for some setting and characterization: the lounge is lightly lit (is that possible?); chairs are scattered randomly about the room; about 30 students are sitting on and about the furniture; I,’ meanwhile, am collecting my free.beer. Someone says we should start now, and someone else does. Mike O’Driscoll reads an excerpt from Billy the Kid, Fei Min Chen-See reads Curiosity by Alistair Reid,

The few poems I’ve cited are single handwritten copies, nervously handed over to me, on a guarantee of return.

Here’s your chance. The next reading is set for . Thursday, February 26, in some room on campus (check with the English Society, HH256, for details). All faculties are welcome.

From high above the sprawling campus of Wilfrid Laurier University, the Turret played host to a Battle of the Bands competition Feb. 11. Not much of a battle took place, as it was obvious from crowd response alone, who was going to win the $200 first prize. The Research Monkeys, made up of UW and WLU students, reigned on this evening not because their level of musicianship was higher than the other four ‘bands, but because of their originality and mature presentation let this band stand out 1 from the others. Starting off strongly, the Research -Monkeys began their set of interesting covers and originals by taking on Nick Lowe’s What’s So

bump Mac out of ‘1st by Mike McGraw Imprint Staff It wasn’t the prettiest way to win a basketball game, but when it means first place, you take it anyway it comes. Taking advantage of an overly vocal and opinionated McMaster squad Wednesday night at the PAC, the Waterloo Warriors notched their third straight to leapfrog into a first place tie with Brock. Two Marauder techical fouls in the waning moments of a nailbiting contest sent UW to the free throw stripe, where they calmly edged ahead to take this one 6459. Overall, this game was a basketball purist’s nightmare. Many of the volleyball type battles in the lane and the footballfumble scrambles across the hardwood would have made good clips for a sports blooper film. But for the boisterous onlookers, it wits a hearthumping, tension filled affair where neither club led’by more than 6. With 1:22 rem&ning, and the visitors up 59-58, a Mac defender said one syllable too many to- referee Ron Foxcroft, after being charged with a foul. UW’s RobFroese didn’t cower in the face of pressure, as he hit 2 of 3 to give’the Warriors a lead they

would never relinquish. The other half of the dynamic duo, Paul Boyce, meshed two more to pad the margin just 20 seconds later. Seconds later, another Mac player let his vocabulary get -away from him, allowing Boyce to drive the final spike in the Marauder coffin. Mac coach Barry Phillips believed that his squad beat themselves. “We shouldn’t have got the technicals, there’s no excuse. But I do blame the officials for making bad calls that led up to the technichls. The , officiating was awful.” Warrior skipper Don McCrae felt that the technicals “broke the tempo of the game.” But perhaps UW assistant coach Mike Kilpatrick captured the essence of this contest stating, “this was the second of two blue-collar games we’ve played against Mac.” Boss McCrae echoed his sentiments, adding “defence prevailed, both clubs are capable of scoring 25 more points.” . At times you had to wonder if you weren’t in fact watching a replay of UW’s 60-56 win over Mac last month. Both clubs once again fired up countless bricks from the field, as they never seemed to get the offensive cogs

turning. The industrial nature of the game was enhanced by yet another flawless defensive display by both squads. It was obvious from the opening tip that these two were going to play that crunching brand of ball once again. The game was deadlocked for most of this stanza, and included some of those hairy scrambles about the floor. It was also evident that the officials were going to have a r’ough night, as they botched up a whole slew of calls before halftime. But in a blue-collar game, you’d expect a blue-collar player to shine through - and that’s exactly what Froese did. UW’s gritty guard plunked in’7 points late in the first frame to put the Warriors up 35-30 at the half. This was highlighted when -he strutted up to the stripe to sink 3 straight after coach Phil*lips was slapped with a technical of his own. Mac‘s eventual fate was foreshadowed when Phillips overstated his opinion of Flockhart’s officiating at this early stage. Fr’oese led-all scorers with 21. He filled up ‘the scoring void left by OUAA scoring leader Boyce, who struggled offensively for the first tZne this

Laurier tied it up again when Joe Hrysko came screaming down the right side and beat Bishop with a howitzer of a blast to the stick side. Just over a minute later, Brad Sparks teed off on a

shot that went through a mob in front of Bishop to give the Hawks a 3-2 lead after 40 min-. utes. Sparkling goaltending was present,at both ends of the rink. Bishop kicked out 32 of the 35 discs fired his way, while Luscombe faced 32 blasts overall. Bishop was especially sharp as Laurier purged the Warriors’ cage in the dying minutes of the game. UW coach Don McKee felt that his squad held the advantage in the third period. “We were more patient in the third. This was rough hockey, it didn’t really become free-flowing hockey until the last period.”

The loss dropped the Hawks to fifth in the OUAA, where they will finish regardless of what happens elsewhere. Waterloo currently sits in third place, prior to last night’s season-ender at York. A win or tie would have locked up third for UW. Z The Warriors made a modest two-place climb to seventh in the CIAU top 10. However, one can readily assume the mental competency of the intellectual giants who choose these rankings look no further than the fact that ‘Western jumped five spots last week to number 2. All this for defeating Laurier and the “ominous” 7-12-2 Mac sqaud. When will this lunacy end?

Athena swimmers place 4th at U of T by Graeme Peppler Imprint staff The University of Waterloo’s Athena, swimmers achieved a meritorious fourth-place finish overall at this year’s OWIAA championships held in Toronto *-. last weekend. An accumulation of 310 points in the two-day competition allowed Waterloo’s women to place behind the University of Toronto’s victorious squad while the University of Western Ontario finished in second place and Brock University placed third overall. Opening the scoring in individual events was Kate Moore. who scorched her way to a thirdplace finish in the 266-metre backstroke, her perennial event, setting a time of 2:29.6, while she also picked-up second place for her 0:32.5 swim in the 50-metre backstroke. The ever-placid Moore, a CIAU qualifier as early as last, October, also gained a place on her seeding in the final of the loo-metre backstroke when she finished in fourth position, recording a time of x:69.31. Shadowing Moore in all the backstroke events was Athena team-mate Sue Masson. Her time of 2:37.0 gave her eighth place in the final of the LOOmetre event while she managed an identical placing in the 50metre event when she swam to a time of 0:34.91. Masson also added a sixth place finish in the consolation finals of the loo-metre backstroke (and, hence, came 14th overall) as she improved her time from the morning heats to ultimately work her way down to a time of 1:14.71. Allison Loucas moved like a piston to score points in the events she ,swam. A vintage performance in the 5O-.metre freestyle netted her third place with a 0:27.55 time to show for it, and a

I

closely fought. 59-metre butterfly resulted in a time of 0:31.02 and third place overall in that event. Loucas mustered the same kind of venom for which she is renowned when she forced the issue of the loo-metre freestyle on her competitors. A time of 1:01.82 gave the CIAU qualifier a credible sixth place in the final standings of that sprint-race. Showing spirit and firm will in the breaststroke events were Andi Kenyon and Shelli Dubs. Both scored valuable points for the team in the 50, 100, and 200metre events in final and consolation final races. Kenyon sizzled in the 50-metre race, moving from an eighthplace seeding to sixth place overall, recording a 0:38.14 time along the way. She also took a praiseworthy first place in the consolation final and ninth place overall in the 266-metre race. She distinguished herself in the loo-metre race with a first place in that consolation event as well. Like Kenyon, Dubs also pulverized her personal best times of the year as she swam to fourth places in the 50 and loo-metre consolation races and scored points for her sixth-place result in the consolation final of the 200-metre event. Making it to. the final of the 296-metre breaststroke was the versatile Nancy Crump. Her sixth-place result, with a time of 2:57.58, was one of her contributions tothe team’s final standing as was her fourth place in the 266-metre butterfly consolation race. Cathy Aube did a fine job for the Athenas in the arduous butterfly events. A time of 1:12.07 placed her eighth in the lOOmetre final, while her efforts in the point-scoring consolation races were good enough for sixth and eighth places respectively in the 50 and 269-metre races. Other women to add to the

Athena’s tally of points were Jennifer Ishii for her 15th place overall in the 56-metre breaststroke and Colleen O’Neill who deserved better after slipping to 16th place overall in the 5Ometre backstroke, the result of a poor start in that event. Not overlooked were Claire Younge’s diving skills as she wound-up second overall in both the l-metre and 3-metre diving. Her performance has earned her the. right to compete at the upcoming CIAU championships. While points are awarded on a 20-17-16-15-14-13-12-11-9-7-65-4-3-2-1 basis for first through to 16th places in individual events, relays count for double these amounts for the same placings. The quartet of Kate Moore, Andi Kenyon, Cathy Aube, and Allison Loucas combined for a seventh place in the4x100-metre medley relay. They finished 12 seconds ahead of the 11th placed Waterloo team of Sue Masson, Shelli Dubs, Nancy Crump, and

Alison Downie. The 4x206-metre freestyle relay saw mercurial swims by the Waterloo ‘A’ team. Unaccustomed 200-metre freestyler’s Allison Loucas and Kate Moore joined Cathy Aube and Sue Masson in a vigorous race to eighth overall in 9:28.33. Alison Downie, Joanne Aldridge, Jennifer Ishii, and Nancy Crump put the Waterloo ‘B’ team in 15th place overall in the same race. , The final event of the Ontario championships saw voracious personal efforts from Sherry Cox, Dawn Mosienko, Sue Larkin, and Tami Lee in the 4x100metre freestyle relay. They were 15th overall, three positions behind the relay of team-mates Ali.son Downie, Joanne Aldridge, Shelli Dubs, and Andi Kenyon. “I’m ecstatic about the results,” professed a radiant Dave Heinbuch, coach of the Athena swimmers. “This is possibly the best team of women that I’ve ever coached since I’ve been here at Waterloo.”

Athlete of the Week Tom Allen Hockey A major reason the Warriors are enjoying such a good season, the 6’3” 200 lbs. defenceman has established himself as a quality OUAA player. A former OHL player, Tom is the team’s leading scorer among defenceman, and is also reliable defensively. . On Sunday against Laurier, he notched two assists and and anchored a power play that scored three times. In addition, he led the team in hits including six devastating checks late in the game.

squash winning all her matches. The Athenas’ line-up included Dianne Huchinson, Janice Gladstone, Ann Purdy, Moore, Sandy Brundle and Mary Anne Ouenell. Toronto finished first, followed by McGill, Western, Queen’s, York, UW and McMaster respectively..

Heinbuch is ootimistic about the prospects for the future of the women’s team whose total points score at this year’s OWIAA’s were almost three times that of last season. “We have a lot of depth to this team,” stated Heinbuch after the culmination of the meet. “As well as our top swimmers, the other women deserve a lot of credit for the work they’ve put in to achieving these results.” Behind the upstart Athenas in the final positions were, among other schools, the university teams from Guelph, York, and McMaster, all of which had defeated the Athenas in previous dual meet competitions. The University of Toronto, always the yardstick by which a team can measure its own potential, scored a resounding 916 points to win the meet. The University of Western Ontario placed second with 700 points and Brock University immediately preceded Waterloo with 589 points.

medal contender. Currently, Kelly is ranked fifth in the CIA-U standings. The Warriors, however, did see gold and also witnessed the death of a seven-year old school record set in the 50-metre dash. Waterloo’s ‘own John Denny clocked in a time of 6.09 in the 50-metres, smashing the previous time of 6.15 seconds set by Ed Neeland in 1980. Denny took the gold medal at this prestigious meet. Needless to say the battering did not stop there, for the Warrior’s 4x400-metre relay team, consisting of Derek King, Andre Garrison, Paul Meikel and Scott Gallachan, clocked in a time of 3:45.7, seizing the

bronze

medal.

Continuing-the onslaught was Warrior power-house, Harvey Mitro, who showed that he could hold his own with the best the in rnational scene has to offer. In ‘e he 1000-metre event, Harvey led the pack until the last 60 metres, where the more experienced runners had to fight to catch him. He placed fourth overall, with a time of 2:zg.l. It was a very successful meet for the team. Next Friday, the team will be trekking to New York, to compete in the Cornell Invitational; we expect nothing more than the unexpected from this team.

SeB-ballsecond season star.ts Tues. with OUAA plavoffs

b

r/

by Mike McGraw imprint Staff If you’ve ever dabbled in roulette or craps, then you’re well acquainted with the format of the OUAA West basketball ’ playoffs. Much like the NHL, there are two seasons in one. The first consists of 12 regular season games by each of the div* ision’s 7 teams, which basically give us scribes something to gab about. For, all 7 clubs also get to participate in season number 2 - the playoffs. This season is made up of one game sudden* death, nailbiting extravaganzas, where God knows what might happen. The only concrete incentive that the regular season offers is that the first-place team gets a bye to the semi-finals, and will host the semis and finals in * the friendly confines of their own gym. This tournament begins a week from tonight, and decides who will be whisked off to Halifax for the CIAU eight-team final. The other 6 will put down their * chips and spin on Tuesday night. Regardless of ineptness, mediocrity or success during the 12 game primer, 40 minutes of pressure-packed, roundball will determine who gets to lace up the a highcuts again next weekend. In these quarter-finals, the seventh place club will visit second place, while sixth travels to third and fourth place to fifth. Keep in mind that the OUAA ~- West has been about as predictable as the NHL’s Norris division this season. I’m probably making things seem like something totally determined by the gods. However, there are in fact seven groups of * athletes involved, so here is a glimpse at what has happened in

*

season one, and what might happen in next week’s casino action: WATERLOO WARRIORS: After a beginning and middle that left prophets scratching their skulls, UW is catching fire at the right time. Spearheaded by demigod Paul Boyce and scrapper Rob Froese, UW can lay the Reeboks to any team when they’re rolling. Now that pat: ched-up Tom Schneider and revived John Bilawey are -filling the mesh, this might be the I toughest club to beat., WINDSOR LANCERS: With snipers like Matt St. Louis, Scott Thomas and Carlos Bonifero, who can ripple the cords from a gym’s parking lot, Windsor was the king of the hill for most of the campaign. Add to this a front court comparable to the team bus, and you have the recipe for a championship. But they’ve shown their flaws lately, after being thumped by both UW and Mac. McMASTER MARAUDERS: Much like Windsor and UW, they’ve shown periodic flashes of brilliance. They play that slow work-it-to-the-big-guy game with Peter Ross and Ralf Rosenkranz, but also have Smurf-like Craig Muir. Although no1 devastating, this is a club that could threaten if they peak at the right times. BROCK BADGERS: Led by cocky Superman figure Kevin Moore, they boast .the league’s most ominous frontcourt. Although they can crash the glass, their Achilles heel all year has been the nonexistence of a talented guard. But if this sleeping giant really awakes, they could emerge as the division’s most dangerous club. WESTERN MUSTANGS: If

you fell victim to the hoopla created by those brainy souls who pick the top 10, you might have believed Western was vying for an NBA title. On the hardwood - where it matters they.‘ve lived up to this billing about as well as Blue Jays’ million-dollar flop Bill Caudill earns his keep. Only recently have they resembled the powerhouse they were supposed to be. With wonderkid John Stiefelmeyer and Chris Cavender, they still pose a threat should they regain their confidence. GUELPH GRYPHONS: After the first four games, they appeared destined for the clammy depths of the division basement. But rookie coach Tim Darling (direct from the pages_ of GQ) -- has his boys playing hyped. They ran off five straight wins at one point, plowing through the league’s creme de la creme. Led by scoring leader Jeff Root and newcomer Sergio Bolzon, they could very well write the final chapter of their Cinderella saga next week. LAURIER HAWKS: The only squad that never joined in the divisional dog fight, the young Hawks have emerged as league doormats. Their faint glimmer of hope vanished when star Rob Galikowski was felled by injuries, and is only now ‘hobbling back. Their good core of youth will have to wait for the future to see blue skies down the street. Barring a quirk of nature, look for them to be out early. In all, the league has been so topsy turvy this season, any money placed in bets can be usually written off as a charitable donation: I’m not making any predictions, I’d have a better ratio of success if I played the tables in Vegas.

cr:

It was a very frustrated and disillusioned Athena basketball team that came back from St. Catharines last Saturday. Brock University played host to a variety of events last weekend, the OUAA/OWIAA fencing chainpionships, the OUAA wrestling championship, and to our own University of Waterloo Athenas. While they may have. been friendly hosts in other events, the Badgers were definitely psyched and ready for a basketball game. Brock dominated almost every aspect of the game, thoroughly, confusing the Athenas on both offense and defense. At halftime, it looked like they would run away with the match. as it was 37-19. However, a little pride in the last 10 minutes enabled the Athenas to keep it respectable. If it wasn’t for fouling at the end and some desperation passes, the score could have been 58-49 as opposed the actual 66-49 result. Excellent shooting by Brock’s Yvonne Doodeman and Michelle Luke combined with the team’s ability to penetrate and pass off to an open spot were the key factors in the first half. The Badgers couldn’t do anything wrong, so it seemed. The Athenas, in the meantime, were frustrated on offense as Brock denied any passes to the wing, totally disrupting the running of Waterloo’s set offenses. Jane Willett was the lone bright spot in the first half, scoring three baskets and hauling

down a multitude of rebounds. Waterloo showed signs of coming back at the beginning of the second period, but then things collapsed completely. With 4 minutes to go the Badgers were up by 20 points. A very active Brock team, both on the floor ’ and the bench, was savouring victory. Some excellent hustle by Corinna Lueg, Karen McCulla, and Cindy Poag produced some scoring, and it was 58-49 with 1 minute left. A concerned Brock coach called timeout to settle her charges down. That she did as the Badgers kept the game out .of _ reach in the last minute with good free-throw shooting and heads-up play. They eventually settled for a 66-49 score. Cindy Poag and Corinna Lueg by K/arch Kiraly led the Athenas with 14 points each, most of which were scored The rivalry continues. For the in the second half.

j

It was a sort but intense season for the alpine ski team, with six races in five weeks. This schedule demanded much of the skiers. ’ Valuable points were accumulated all season long with the consistent finishes of graduating seniors Linda McCurdy and Mirka Dvoracek, as well as straight-ahead skier Fred Baur for the men. Top finishes were also turned in by Peter Beir, who finished seventh in the Giant Slalom and ninth in the Slalom for the season. Sandy Gillies also managed an llth-place finish in Giant Slalom. The team profited greatly from the organization and previous racing experience of coach Andrea Baker. Baker, a fourth-year Kinesiology student, suffered a knee injury last year, preventing her form competition this year. She gavevaluable input not only as organizer but as technical advisor as well.
