OFS taskforce to .visit UW Monday by Teni Shewfelt Imprint staff

The Ontario Federation of stu+ dents is concerned about the future of - post-secondary education and is / doing, something about it. “Youth Asking Questions” is an OFS taskforce which is travelling to various university towns to obtain ideas and recommendations on education in r the 21 st Century. The recommendations of the taskforce are to be presented to the government at the end of March. Scott Forrest and Shane Carmichael of the Federation of Students - are currently arranging the taskform cc’s visit to Waterloo, which is to take place March 2 in the Great Hall of the CC, from 1 to 4 p.m. The academic community, UW president Doug Wright and the Federation of Students, as well as various local 4 members of the community, mayors and MPP’s, and MP’s are expected to present submissions to the taskforce. Topics expected to be presented to the taskforce include: the type and value of education required in the future, the quality of * education, and the accessibility of post-secondary education.

Forrest said that co-op education will undoubtedly play an important role in future education and the taskforce will probably be paying special attention to the co-op question in its visit to Waterloo. Carmicheal said he felt the community aspect of the taskforce was important, as it allows the community to express its opinion on the issue, as well as giving the university a higher profile. Carmicheal also said that “having the taskforce come to the school and holding the session in the Campus Centre is good ,for the profile of the OFS as it allows students to see what they are getting for their money.” Currently the OFS is becoming a powerful lobby force. Recently, Greg Sorbara, minister of colleges and universities, said, “The OFS is a powerful institution . . . the ministry ignores the OFS at its oivn peril.” Forrest also expressed the importance the OFS, and this taskforce will have with regards to the upcoming provincial election. Forrest said the election will provide the OFS with a perfect opportunity for lobbying, and the taskforce’s recommendations will provide the OFS with a solid mandate.

Budget provides little for students OTTAWA (CUP) The latest budget brought down by federal Finance Minister Michael Wilson fails *to address funding problems for education and research, lobby groups =Y. Allan Sharp president of the Canadian Association of University Teachers said, “the Tories missed &he boat again, by not introducing long-promised measures to aid research in Canada.” He went on to say, “this was the year for them to live up to their election >promises, with regards to doubling Canada’s research and development perfor%ance. If they do anything next year, ’ it will look like another pre-election trick It will be greeted with cynicism.*’ Todd Smith, executive officer of the Canadian Federation of Students safd CFS was neither pleased nor surprised by Wilson’s budget. “Quite iankly, there wasn’t anything in the .

budget for students”, Smith said, adding “but we didn’t expect any great news from Michael Wilson.” Smith went on to say that the absence of any announcements about research or education worries CFS. He said the proposed forum on post secondary education, announced last October, may be used by the government as a catch all for dealing with funding problems. One positive thing which did come out of Wilson’s February t.18 budget was the elimination of import tariffs on many English language books and computer parts. The govemment imposed the tariff last June in retaliation to an American tax on Canadian cedar shakes and shingles. Book publishers are-confident that an extensive postcard campaign, which attracted an estimated 130,000 Canadians, was key to changing Cabinet’s mind.

but OFS says more is still needed by Mike Brown Imprint staff in a tele-conference announcement Thursday afternoon, Minister of Colleges and Universities Greg Sorbara brought good news to the education community in Ontario by revealing plans for a 17 per cent increase in available O.S.A.P. funds. This boost to the Ontario Student Assistance Program represents an increased contribution of $25.2 million. Highlights of the announcement include a decrease in the expected financial cpntribution of parents; children of sole support parents are eligible for a potential 40 per cent increase in grant allocations; single, independent students can expect a 31 per cent grant increase; the Ontario Work Study Program is scheduled to create 800 new campus

Matt Certosimo, chairman of the 200,000 member Ontario Federation of Students, was pleased that a number-of OFS concerns were addressed and said that in this respect “we have to be positive about the announcement”. Certosimo still cautioned “there’s a long way to go”.

by Steve Kannon Imprint staff The provincial New Democrats are, by their very nature, far from being the most rational bunch of politicians in Ontario. Any group who looks to solve economic woes by throwing more public money away is a little suspect. Now, before 1receive a pile of hate mail from diehard NDPers, I realize my assessment of the NDP comes from a personal bias in favour of less, not more, government involvement in society. On the whole, however, 1 think it can safely be said that the NDP has been responsible for a huge number of simplistic, if not idiotic, statements. One of the most recent of these (it’s hard to keep up) was made by Sudbury East MPP Elie Mattel, the NDP health and safety critic, during a lambasting of Labour Minister Bill Wrye, “In 1983, 232 workers were killed in Ontario; in 1984, 234 killed in Ontario; in 1985, 193 killed in Ontario; in 1986, 211 killed in Ontario. “Can you imagine if they were policemen? We would turn this country on its head. But they are workers.” 1 don’t know about you, but if I lived in Sudbury, I’d be busy lookingfora new representative. Martel’s statement may have been intended as an exaggeration, but that doesn’t make it any less stupid. For one thing, policemen are unionized workers, just like most of those listed in Martel’s statistics. Secondly, if some 200 people in any one profession were killed in a year, there would be immediate action taken. Those people killed on the job each year represent a small minority of the entire work force in Ontario. While this argument doesn’t mean the deaths are acceptable, the problem is less ominous than Martel’s comparison makes it out to be. My criticism goes far beyond this one minor incident. The whole issue of Ontario’s labour ministry has become a political hot potato. Wrye is being criticized left and right by the opposition parties and labour groups. Calls for resignation are to be expected from the opposition, that is their job. It is the union complaints which are really unfounded and amount to a waste of time and money. _ Unions, which have long outgrown their usefulness, have used the labour ministry, which has also outgrown any real usefulness as a full Cabinet portfolio, as a scapegoat for their own inadequacies. No longer needed to secure basic working rights for their members (as was the case in the early part of the century) unions, and unions leaders in particular, struggle to justify their existence by turning petty demands into major issues. (Otherwise many workers might discover they are paying dues to finance the comfortable and complacent lifestyles of their union leaders.) Unions, however, continue to have some influence in the province, which is why their concerns are aired by the NDP. The New Democrats depend heavily on the labour vote to sustain their tenuous position, so you can bet . they will do everything in their power to support union credibility. Anytime workers have a problem, their unions, unwilling to tackle the problem directly, blame the situation on the ministry. The NDP, already looking to embarrass the government on any occasion, are quick to jump on -the union’s bandwagon. Observed in this light, the complaints directed at the ministry lose almost all credibility. This is not to say some of the complaints from other sectors aren’t valid; the ministry has more than a few deficiencies, especially in its relationship with the wasteful compensation board. The NDP and union leaders are looking for a ministry which will support their own self-serving ideas. That we have a ministry which seems somewhat intent on serving all Ontarions is a concept worthy of their scorn.

The joy of cruising

I I ’

by Mike ODriscoll Imprint staff The Cruise is back. On Tuesday morning of this week the United States Air Force once again sent the most infamous addition to its deadly arsenal hurtling across the skies of northern Saskatchewan in test described as “a very big success,” Only hours later Ottawa announced that the five-year Cruise Missile testing agreement with the U.S. will be renewed. That’s five more years of ignoring the pleas of a fearful majority. Voiced public opinion via press and poll has made it clear that the Mulroney government is acting against the wishes of those who have put their trust in the democratic process. Obviously, in a system where today’s political decisions determine tomorrow’s political success something else is at work here. That’s five more years of Canada playing the lead role in a macabre dance of marionettes. Why should a government ignore the concerns of its own people while catering to the demented wishes of an uncaring and often belligerent neighbour? Listen to the voice of a free trade deal around the corner: “Money talks, bullshit walks.” Meanwhile, our lovable leaders have a bad case of the 01’ collective head up the ass. Bill Chambers, spokesman for External Affairs Minister Joe Clark, claims that withdrawal from the pact is “totally up to us.” However, the wording of the agreement allows for withdrawal only in case of emergency, war, national insurrection or riot. Wool makes my eyelids itch. If you’re not interested in playing a part in a puppet cast, or in silently condoning armed insanity, there’s a couple of things to keep in mind. First of all, it’s up to the people of Canada to make Cruise testing an issue in the next federal election. Secondly, come Saturday, there’s a pair of demonstrations scheduled to protest the agreement. Try showing up at Speaker’s Corner in Kitchener, or the P.C. party headquarters on Richmond Street West in Toronto, both gatherings are set for noon.

Gbod guy/bad guy syndome applies to both US and USSR by Mike Brown Imprint staff Amerika. Last week I watched a few episodes of this American propaganda on television. Despite whatever the producers of Amerika had in mind, the mini-series only succeeded in convincing viewers that: a) America should vehemently oppose demilitarization, b) Russians are never to be trusted, or c) America is a confused nation bent on purporting the myth that the U.S.A. is never the aggressor. Unfortunately, only one half of the picture was presented in the movie. As a Canadian, I feel amiable toward Americans. Further, I don’t mind saying that the survival of liberal democracy would be a comforting thought. Democracy, however, is only worthy of external protection when the majority of a threatened nation’s citizens support a liberal state and are willing to exhaust whatever means necessary to defend it. The same goes for the defense or implementation of any other ideology. America then, should not “give a hoot” about the prevalence of democracy in foreign nations where the majority/of people are indifferent or apathetic to threats of communism. Apparently America does not agree. The U.S.A. is intent on halting the spread of communism in the world no matter what the attitudes and wishes are of the

citizens of the many unstable states. More power to America in her efforts to thwart the advent of any‘ ideology being forced upon any state whose majority of citizens demonstrate that they are adverse to a particular political or social change. In ail other cases, however, America should keep its nose clean and let nations handle. their own problems. Amerika was about the Russian society forcing the American society to conform to its standards and governing rules. In reality, America and Russia are both guilty of pedalling uninvited influence upon foreign nations. Today, it is one super power against another. Ideology is a secondary concern. Both super powers are concerned primarily with maintaining hegemony over the other, not with capitalism or communism. Consequently, the Amerika scenario could be just as easily applied to an American invasion of Russia. Contrary to popular belief, America on occasion does take off her white hat. Amerika may well have succeeded as effective propaganda among the lower educated North American populace. This is unfortunate, but it deserves to be remembered as nothing more than a poor excuse for an overrated B’ movie. Perhaps a mini-series should be made about the equally probable invasion of Russia by America. They might call it Red Yanks or else Russia D. C.

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire . by Doug Thompson Imprint staff Bill McClanahan, the president of the UW staff union, C.U.P.E. local 739, had an opportunity last Tuesday to clear the aura of distrust hanging over his union. Instead the clouds of. suspicion have thickened considerably. A free and fair election, for all to see, would have given the membership confidence that the election results at least represented the will of the members. But nobody has that impression today. It is ironic that McClanahan might well have stopped the small scale rebellion he faced from a few custodians by playing fair. He would have had a real victory. But by playing unfair, his victory has been transformed into an episode of shame for local 739, and the the rebellion . can only intensify. Furthermore, custodians’ complaints are lent more credence by such blatant and bumbling election rigging. The unfairness consists of the refusal to count - and subsequent destruction of - the proxy ballots submitted by the 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. shift employees who could

not personally attend the election meeting. A questionable technicality was the excuse for the refusal to count those ballots - but what excuse can be offered for their subsequent destruction? Well, no one has been fooled. A loss in a fair election might have got the “rebels” to keep their own counsel until the next election, but a defeat in a rigged election can only add fuel to the growing unrest among the long-apathetic custodians. Their complaint is that the union represents only day shift employees, the food services, central plant, skilled trades and maintenance people who are members of the same union, and that the concerns of the night custodians get short shrift. And who can doubt their complaint is valid when even their election ballots are disregarded. The interests of the night shift and the day shift are very different, and it has become abundantly clear that this union does not represent both groups. The time has come for a seperate local for UW custodians. This is a much better solution than burning the custodians’ ballots.

Canada a “damned good place” . . . for some To the editor,

I am answering the letter of Gerry Schrauwen (Imprint, Feb. 20), I will be rational. I do not want feelings to be involved. A lawyer that I ‘have consulted says the following: “Section 15( 1). of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms provides: ‘Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion; sex, age or mental or physical disability*. In my view, there is a very strong case to be made that foreign student contributors under the U.I. Act are discriminated against on grounds’of national origin and are deprived of ‘equal benefit of the law’. Section 15( 1) of the Charter applies to ‘every individual’ and is not limited to citi-

zens or permanent residents . . The charter is the Supreme Law of Canada; Section 52( 1) of it provides that any law inconsistent with the Charter is “to the extent of the inconsistency, of no force or effect’*. On the other hand, Hon. Benoit Bouchard, the minister of employment and immigration says: ‘C . the Canadian Unemployment Insurance (UI) Program is based on the concept of universal coverage. All persons working in insurable employment and their employers contribute UI premiums on a proportionate basis, thereby minimizing the cost to the individual worker. To depart from this principle and to provide an exception for workers from other countries would discriminate against Canadian workers who must contribute, even though they may have no significant risk of unemployment” So, these are the two official points of view. The final decision will be taken by ‘I

a Judge. Do you want to bet!!!! In relation to the comment that “Canada is a damn good place to live”, it would depend on the specific situation. For example, the fact that I, having lived here for almost six years, with two Canadian-born children and a husband enrolled in a PhD, am considered a “visitor” is out of the’ mind of any rational person. In terms of employment, I, have the same opportunities as a two-day tourist to Niagara Falls. Besides, most foreign students live well below the poverty line because they are not allowed to supplement their income with odd jobs (snow shovelling, C& D cashier, tutor, sport instructor, etc.). I do not want to make any conclusions because they would turn out too emotional; I leave them to yourself. Mariaurora Alumnus

Canadian Indians are poorly erstood by most peoples To the editor, Of the people who have looked past the usual stereotypes of Indians either being continually drunk on the reserve and apathetic about life or receiving free houses and cars from the government, few have looked far enough. The stereotypes are hardly accurate and are based on generalizations of a small percentage of the community. The idea of the government giving away free houses and cars is hilarious. Bands have a long history of underfunding. To gain a basic understanding of Indian people and their cultures, it is 1 not sufficient to: i) wear blue Taiwan-made moccasins

ii) wear feat hers or beaded jewelry iii) shuffle around a drum once or twice a year iv) read two or three D.1.A. publications v) know one Indian The craftwork and the dancing are artforms reflecting the culture, not the culture in itself. It is similiar to judging the personality of someone from a photograph alone. While examining the limited source of information, one must be aware of the quality of the attainable information. Is the picture taken by someone Ithirty feet away with a Polaroid or is it taken by a professional photographer? 1s the report written by someone who believes he knows what is in the best interests of Indians or is the report written by lndi-

ans themselves in consultation with the chiefs and elders? There is a need for greater involvement by both natives and non-natives in the community. Only through involvement, one is able to understand the needs of the lndian community and what the lndian leaders are struggling to achieve. It is discouraging to see people uninterested with the Indian community. More people should talk to the leaders, chiefs and elders, visit local friendships, join native clubs. Only when there is greater understanding between the Indian community and the general population, the unique contribution by the Indian people to the Canadian society can be fully appreciated.

To the editor, “Instead of women wanting to be more like men, why isn ‘t thefocus to make men more understanding of the women ‘s role?” There they are, verbatim, the words of an educated friend of mine in a recent letter. His words reflect a popular misconception of the women’s movement today. Brace yourselves guys, prepare those egos - as difficult as it is to believe, 1 do not want my own precious little penis. I’m beginning to wonder if the worshipped penis is the only part of the male capable of any sensitivity (and he’s sooooo sensitive - what a charming quality in such a pillar of strength). I beg you to please, put your penises aside, just for a moment (no one will steal him when you aren’t looking), while I explain the insensitivity of my friend’s words. Feminists are not trying to be like men. Crazy as it may sound, we are trying to be women. It’s not that

easy. Definitions of women’s roles, of a woman’s place, have come only from men. They tell us we’re the “weaker vessel”, the “shadows”, submissive sex objects. But we just don’t feel like objects, nor do we feel weak. We’re discovering that we feel very strong and extremely alive. Yet, the strength and life that feel so right to us are constantly tortured by attitudes threatening, and sometimes forcing, us back into our “place”. We resent that. It demands we taste the perceived weakness we desperately want to.escape. It destroys our strength and sense of life because it haunts us with the impossibility of our ideal. Feminists are fighting for a society free from oppression. Equality of the sexes does not mean women are the same as men but that all people are free to choose, free to define their own roles within society. For feminists, equality of the sexes is just one battle. Various races, homosexuals, the lower classes, the elderly

and many other groups are also being forced to swallow the same vile taste. Perhaps my white, male, 22-year old, upper-middle class, heterosexual friend has simply never felt discrimination. Does that mean that he is then unable to be sensitive to discrimination and share our ideal? Maybe the only way to‘gain his support is to promote to him the new freedoms such an ideal society would offer men. However, the many men already supporting the feminist movement certainly do not do so for selfish reasons. 1 know that my expectations are high. But without my idealism, I cannot witness the oppression of others and constructively deal with my own. You can go back to your penis now. If yours is an advanced model - the kind with the alleged “mind of his own” - maybe you’ll explain this to him. Jane Kalbfleisch

Of laws and Grace and God and Allah: -forgiveness To the editor, 7 1 am writing in response to Chris Gerrard’s article entitled Rules and Regulations (Imprint, Feb. 13) from an Islamic point of view. ’ Mr. Gerrard, in your article you mentioned that we are no longer

Fuming about smoke and logical argument To the editor, 1 felt 1 had to reply to Mr. Vanderhoek’s The Real World: to smoke or not to smoke. Admittedly, I am a non-smoker who would like to see all public places smoke-free. However, that is not what inspired me to write; it was the tota lack of logical argument in his column. Mr. Vanderhoek admits that smoking is a public health hazard, in ‘his own words -‘only a fool or an addict smokes’. He then goes on to question the necessity of banning it. How do the dangers of ‘toxic chemicals in our rivers or air pollution generated by factories’ justify allowing smoking to continue to be a public health hazard? How is it a logical argument that if we risk our health in one way then we shouldn’t stop risking it in another? Mr. Vanderhoek makes the leap from the perhaps childish ‘only ugly people smoke’ stickers to the use of ‘gas chambers’ to discourage smok-

ers. How is this bizarre relevant argument?

fantasy

Mr Vanderhoek then closes his argument that non-smokers are inflicting their ‘choice or lifestyle . . . following a dangerous precedent, one set by such notables as Adolf Hitler, Joe McCarthy and Ronald Reagan’. I think Mr. Vanderhoek has the (extreme) argument reversed. It is smokers who inflict their habit on others. Tobacco is a proven carcinogen. Wanting to protect your health from a proven danger is hardly inflicting a lifestyle on others. 1 feel that smokers have the right to smoke and to risk their own health; however, they do not have the right to inflict their second hand smoke on me and risk my health. I suggest that if Mr. Vanderhoek wants to discuss the issue he start forming logical arguments. *nge*a Moore 4B Co-op Psych

More fuming about prejudiced smokers To the editor, In response to Alan Vanderhoek’s “fuming” article on Feb. 20, I’d like to state I’m pleased to se.ethe public actively doing something rather than just complaining all the time. If you think by this statement I’m a strong anti-smoker, guess again. I’m currently 30 years old and my habit is in its 18th year. 1 know its a dangerous habit; I’ve seen and heard all the facts, but it’s my choice. It isn’t the public’s choice to share my smoke. It’s about time someone did something constructive about some of the pollution we all share but a minority creates. What I’m really irked by are those

childish and demeaning stickers. 1 would have thought that type of action was well-beneath the supposed “enlightened” community of students at the university level. Smokers and non-smokers alike can be really great people if you take the opportunity to get to know them. If you don’t, and pre-judge them because of a habit, it begins to sound like the Klu Klux Klan has turned their interests toward smokers. 1 hope we can be mature beyond our current prejudices and work this out constructively.

us to follow in order to create a peaceful and orderly society. Also, if we say that we love God, then we should trust his laws because love without trust is not true love and will never last. In order to obey God’s laws, we have to believe that God knows us more than we know ourselves because he is the creator and the laws which we have to abide with are actually for our own good - spiritually and physically. In the Quran (Holy Book for Muslims), homosexual relationships are forbidden as they are forbidden in Christianity and Jewish religion. I am sorry if 1 hurt your feelings, but it is the truth. However, we must not forget that we live under His grace, therefore we can always ask for his forgiveness since the door or repentance is always open for anybody who realizes his/her mistakes and is willing to change for the better, as stated in the Quran (Chapter 4: Verse 17): “Allah (God) forgives those who commit evil in ignorance and then quickly turn to him in repentance. He will pardon them. Allah (God) is Knowing, Wise.” Hence, we can all lead a progressive and meaningful life as long as we learn from our mistakes and try our best no to repeat them again. In addition, if we truly put in our heart a sincere intention to be a worthy and a better person for ourselves, society and God, indeed God the Most Merciful and Most Beneficent will guide us along the right path.

Yet more fuming To the editor, To smoke or not to smoke (Imprint, Feb. 20), well that is up to the individual. However, 1 am not imposing my lifestyle on others w.hen I want my indoor environment free from transhuman carcinogens: I am only trying to preserve my life. People frequently talk about smoker’s “rights” in a curious context. I don’t think anyone wants to remove an individual’s option to smoke tobacco products. This is a fundamental freedom of choice; a right. However, once such a person’s combusted tobacco product makes contact with a non-smoker, then the non-smoker’s life is threatened in the form of an increased probability of developing carcinoma (not to mention the numerous obnoxious ef-fects). Such an abrogation of a non-smoker’s right to a clean atmosphere is far greater than any violation of a smoker’s ‘right’ to pollute such environments. To argue the opposite, as many smokers do, indicates a bizarre conceptualization of an individual’s rights in society. Of course, there are other toxins and carcinogens in the atmosphere, but it is a spurious argument that the health risks from second-hand smoke are not of significant concern until they exceed the risks of these other noxious effects. Specific health risks are cumulative in a probabilistic sense. The elimination of second:hand smoke from enclosed environments is a basic method by which health risks may be minimized. Mr. Vanderhoek advocates that smokers should receive “an equivalent proportion of study and social> space” on campus.’ Well, there are literally hectares of such space available: outside.

by Robert Day Imprint staff In this, the last column dealing with the Holy Shroud, I feel it’s high time we dealt in gory detail with at least one of the official test results of the Shroud of Turin Research Project (again, STURP) And, as before, the problem of objectivity will eventually rear its ugly head, but at least this time we’re ready for it, having been burned a couple of times already. One of the more ballyhooed discoveries of two members of the STURP team involved some fancy image processing, and was performed by team members John Jackson and Eric Jumper. In the Spring, 1982 issue of The Skeptical Inquirer, Marvin Mueller writes that Jackson and Jumper “. . . discovered that the shroud image could be interpreted as containing unique three-dimensional information about the corpse they assumed it was once wrapped around.” What these two assumed was that the shading of the image could be associated with depth information, and this would allow them to develop essentially a bas relief of the body that was once under the shroud. Jackson and Jumper were two of the brighter stars of the film 27ze Silent Witness, and the three-dimensional reconstruction of the head of the image was paraded with much fanfare across the screen from every point of view. Proof positive what more need be said? Lost in the shuffle, however, was a crucial assumption that both Jackson and Jumper had based their reconstruction on the assumption that the shroud had initially been wrapped around a body, and what they were doing was developing a three-dimensional image assuming that one already existed. This crucial disclaimer never made it into the film, and the audience was left with the impression that Jackson and Jumper had just made the discovery of the century. To their credit, most of the STURP team nowadays discounts the results of the “3-D effeet”, having taken a fair amount of abuse over the logical oversight it entailed. And Jackson and Jumper? I’m sure they’ll survive, even if their objectivity may be slightly wounded. Along with Dr. Bucklin from last column, these two are also members of the Executive Council of the Holy Shroud Guild, although you wouldn’t have learned this from the film. Probably the most cited piece of literature dealing with the authenticity of the Shroud, and certainly the most notorious, is the book Verdict on the Shroud, by STURP member Ken Stevenson and affiliate Gary Habermas, a book no true Shroud fanatic should be without. The front dust cover states that this is “ . . . the definitive book, based on new evidence from three years of intensive investigation by STURP . . . “, clearly implying that the book has at least the tacit approval of the entire research team. Later editions of the book, however, were forced to carry the disclaimer: The “Verdict on the Shroud is VOT an official publication of STURP. While the ‘book is based n part on scientific work done by The Project, the book was not authorized, sponsor,ed, or apJroved in any way by The Project nd the conclusions reached by., he authors-are their own , . .“. ’ For reasons possibly related to

A portion showing

this, Stevenson was asked to resign from STURP, while those who are tired of hearing the word “objectivity” are probably not interested that Habermas is a minister in the United Brethren Church (not so bad) and a professor of philosophy at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty Baptist College (not so good). At this point, the patient reader should be wondering if there is anyone he can believe and just how the image got onto the Shroud in the first place. Enter Walter McCrone, forensic microanalyst and founder of the McCrone Research Institute in Chicago, which specialize in a wide variety of microscopic and ultramicroscopic tests. Amidst all the hoopla, McCrone had an opportunity to examine sticky tape samples from the Shroud, and his conclusions are rather sobering and singularly unexciting. In a two-page statement in the same issue of The Skeptical Inquirer, McCrone states that, based on his examination of the tape samples, he is confident that “ . . . the entire image was produced by an artist using iron earth and vermilion pigments in a tempera medium . . .” and that “ . . . all of the image areas show varying amounts of two red pigments . . . “. McCrone concludes that he “ . i . can see no possible mechanism by which the shroud image could have been produced except as the work of an artist. . . the anatomical and pathological markings . . . would be difficult to produce except -by an artist . . .” The STURP team responded that, even if pigment did exist in appreciable quantities on the linen, this did not explain how the image was actually produced with no apparent brush strokes. What STURP seemed to forget was the original letter written by Bishop d’Arcis, mentioning how Bishop de Poitiers had discovered’ how the cloth had been “cunningly painted.” Of all posoible charges that might be levied against the alleged forger, incompetence shouldn’t be one of them. In addition, magician Joe Nickel1 has been experimenting with pigment application techniques and has refined his methods to the point where he has, on his own, produced shroud images of himself, his wife and even his dog. . The most exciting new development related to the Shroud is that, finally, finally, finaZZy, permission has been given to perform carbon-14 dating tests on the fabric, the results of which may mercifully put all of this to rest. The final verdict is expected in six to 12 months, and once I get wind of’them, yob folks will be. ,the; second on& to Lknow. Have.a:goodoone. 1, L I, , -,

FO@UlM, l?ze Vegetarian WorZd

Village vegetarians

’ 1

by Kathy Marsman When 1 lived in residence in my first year here at Waterloo, the question of the day around 5:00 was always: “what’s for dinner‘?“. Depending on the response, many of us devout “Y&R” groupies would make the decision as to whether or not the main course was more alluring than the last half hour of our soap opera. As we waited with growling stomachs, the answer would work its way over to the TV lounge. Replies such as “chili”, “mystery meat”, and “fish” were followed by painful mourns of disappointment: “Oh-no, not again”, “That stuff is SO GROSS”, “How come we never have anything good”, and “Let’s order pizza”. But we all lived in fear of the chicken. Always very rare and sinuous - it was really bad. We figured they’d signed a contract with a chicken company for the year, because amidst our complaints, it would still be served and served raw, at that! That was back in my meat eating days. It would’ve been difficult to be a vegetarian in residence, although there were a brave few that lived through it. There seemed to be no alternatives in the meal plan, so we ate the meat dishes anyway, never much liking them, but never questioning the necessity of their presence, either. Meat was served twice daily - at lunch and at dinner. The only vegetarian dish I can remember being served was macaroni and cheese. It was heartily received, but was only offered four or five times that year. Although 1 ate the stuff, 1 remember ‘being rather bored with the usual evening fare -- meat, potatoes, and a token vegetable. We always felt bad for the people

who didn’t eat meat, as their meals looked really scant - the vegetable and the potatoes. Vegetarianism was out of the question for most of us. Residence isn’t cheap, and with the phenomenal amount of money that goes into the food plans, don’t you think students should speak out about what they want’! Vegetarian food is not bland, it isn’tall vegetables, it isn’t all tofu and bean curd, it isn’t less filling, but it certainly has less fat and less calories for those concerned with gaining weight in residence. The very fact that it is not meat is interpreted by the vast majority of the free world to mean that it’s some crazy exotic “organic” mush of green plant matter that will leap off the plate at it’s would-be consumer, or cause immediate ill health if ingested. To be so closed minded about vegetarian food is to deprive your taste buds of new experiences. Maybe people are afraid they will like vegetarian food and will be considered lesser for it (ie.-“Real men don’t eat quiche”). Or maybe some have tried it once and didn’t have the taste for that particular dish. Certainly there is diversity in vegetarian food - there’s so many things you can eat if you’re not restricted to meat dishes. 1 would strongly urge anyone to request vegetarian food if they would like to see it in their residence’s meal plan. After all, the meat is the most expensive part of the meal, and if you’re not eating it (or not enjoying it), you’re certainly not getting your money’s worth from the meal plan. You don’t have to vow off of meat for life to try it. What have you got to lose? Unless you’re particularly attached to that “mystery meat”.

Alphabetical by Alan Vanderhoek Imprint staff

Entry into the primary school system was a bit of a shock for me. An innocent lad of six, 1 was very slow to absorb the fact that having a surname beginning with ‘V’ was considered sufficient justification for the authorities to heap all manner of discriminative abuses upon my head. On the third day of Grade One classes, teacher brought a large bucket of gooey candy for us. 1got the smallest, mushiest piece. When cookies were dispensed, 1 got crumbs. The real blow came at firedrill time. 1 ran home crying at the realization they were happily content letting me be the last to escape the building (and first to fry). All this because of a stupid, meaningless accident of birth. Upon attending university for the first time, 1 eagerly anticipated better things. After all, university was the place where people went to get educarud. Discrimination would surely not be found in such an august environment. Unfortunately, several years of academia and threecampuses have convinced me otherwise. The best that can be said for university is that on occasion an enterprising Prof or TA,in a burst of

discrimination unprecedented and rarely-duplicated imagination, will reverse the class list and let the “lasties” be first. This, of course, solves no problems, but is merely an example of reverse discrimination. Being a citizen who prides himself on community involvement, 1 havJe registered complaints on this issue with various authorities. One of my more memorable efforts was a letter to then-Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, asking him to entrench alphabetic equality in the new constitution. The reply was a form letter, indicating that my concerns had been passed on to the appropriate government department, and thanking me for drawing the matter to His attention. Shortly thereafter 1 was visited by several burly persons in white coats who were persuaded only with the greatest difficulty that 1 did not pose a threat to national security. Sadly. 1 see no hope for the immediate future. I’m blessed, however, in having a religious belief to sustain me, even in my darkest hours. In fact, the single most exciting moment in my perusal of religious literature occurred when at long last 1deciphered the true meaning of the Scriptural phrase ” and the last shall be first”. Praise the Lord, 1 can hardly wait.

Preparing for the summer job hunt by Student

Vocational

Advisors

What are you looking forward to doing this summer’? Tanning’?! Sleeping’ !! Working at a job which suits your needs’?! If you answered “yes” to this last suggestion, then it’s time to seriously start thinking about a summer job, since the summer break is only about six weeks away. The summer job search is a microcosm of a permanent job search, thus, the job hunting skills and strategies you develop will be invaluable upon graduation. Determining what your needs are and the best way to satisfy them is the first and most important step to finding an appropriate summer job. One way of doing this is to sit down with a pen and paper and describe yourself on paper in respect to your values, skills, interests, and‘other important aspects of your being. It’s also helpful to think of skills and experience which you presently do not have, but would enhance your future career goal. You can then proceed to look for a job which will help fill in these gaps. Summerjob hunters should approach the search with a well-developed resume which uses action verbs to appropriately describes yourself on paper. Many workshops and literature on resume writing is available on campus through the Career Information Centre and Career Services in Needles Hall or through Student Locational Advisors. Job seekers should also have about three references which can be given to employers if they ask for them. It is a good idea to ask permission

to a person’s name as a reierence and to chose someone who knows you well and will be able to articulate your abilities. Organization is extremely helpful throughout the.job search. Keep records of who and when you have contacted someone about a possible job to avoid duplication and to assist you with follow up phone calls or visits . Various avenues to finding a summer job exist. Individuals can watch the newspapers, apply directly to employers, send out resumes and letters to possible employers, and look for internal job postings. Networking or contacting friends, former employers, and other people who may know about job openings is also a successful method of finding a job. Students can also access jobs developed through government _._grants.^^ Experience ‘87 is. .a government pro__ ^ gram which ofters job opportunities for students in diverse areas and capacities. A summer job board is located in Needles Hall across from the cashier’s office, displays up to date postings for summer positions. The Career Information Centre in Needles Hall also hosts information on summer job and travel information. Student Manpower centres will be opening soon in municipalities throughout Canada. Many opportunities for students do exist if you take the time to find them. By properly preparing yourself for the job search and remaining persistent in your search, you are have a good chance of finding a job which satisfies your needs and, in the process, you will develop valuable job hunting skills.

Self-determinatiort for ~ native women elusive by Prima

D. Michell

The proposed government policy on Indians of 1969 begins: “To be an Indian is to be a man with all a man’s needs and abilities”. This appropriately reflects the attitude the government has held toward Indian women since 1869. There must be public recognition of the contributions made by Indian women in both native and non-native communities. Bill C-3 1 repeals section 12(I)(b) of the I Indian act that stated when an Indian woman married a non-status man. she lost her status. The aims and ambitions of the Indian women do not simply end here. The fact that Indian women want a voice in the community and the opportunity to be involved in the decision making process has been often overlooked. Without sufficient consultation with all members of the society, the governing body cannot claim to be representative of its society. The body then loses what valuable input the overlooked segment of the society might have contributed. Indian women have formed a national organization called the Native Women’s Association of Canada. It is the opportunity to be heard and to act as a collective body. Indian people, as the Hawthorn Tremblay Report 1967 believes, are moving to a position of being a ‘citizens plus’ because they hold certain rights, privileges and a special legal status not available to other citizens. Special Indian rights exist because the Indian people had initial sovereignty over the land and have never surrendered their claim to it. “To be born poor, an Indian, and a female, is to be a member of the most disadvantaged minority in Canada, a citizen minus.” The Indian woman is slowly improving her status as a

‘citizen minus’. In the Mohawk tradition it was the women who were primarily responsible for the selection of the chief. They were the ones to remove him from office if he did not serve the needs of the people. In the Carrier tribe, one belongs to the same clan as one’s mother. Clans determine things such as who one can and cannot marry, where one sits and how one participates in the potlatch. Potlatch is the basis many bands will use for self-government. The role of women is not limited to their legal status recognized by the government, but instead is an active part within the community. Indian women want to preserve the Indian identity, create and participate in programs for the improvement of the community, improve the educational and economic prospectives for the community. They are able to contribute a great deal to the community from the viewpoint of an Indian and a woman. Their participation in the creation or upgrading of certain facilities on the reserve such as daycare, health care, education system, housing etc. is essential for its success. Through organizations such as the Native Women’s Association, women are able to help the Indian people in the struggle for the recognition of aboriginal rights by the government and by the society and to promote self-determination among Indian women. Marlyn Kane, president of the Native Women’s Association of Canada, will speak on “Self-Determination for First Nation and Metis Women” on March 5 in CC 110 at I:30 p.m. This event is sponsored by the Social Justice Group of the Waterloo Public Interest Research Group and the International Women’s Day Committee.

Some penetrating questions from Lairy the stuffed toy by B.C. Holmes

a-Candidate lambastes log-like UW students To the editor, First let me congratulate the victors (and all the candidates) of the Fed election. All ran well-organized and spirited campaigns. Special congratulations to Lisa Skinner. Since Lisa and-l have been close friends for some time, it was somewhat difficult to compete as opposing candidates. Although disappointed by my own loss, I am quite happy for Lisa and her victory. She is an energetic, competent student leader who will, I am sure, prove herself to be quite effective as v-p - university affairs. I would also like to thank those who supported me during the campaign; however, it is another group of students that 1 now wish to address. You people bitch and whine about the Fed Hall music policy, temporary Safety Van discontinuations, proposed Fed fee increases, abysmal conditions at the PAC and administration’s attempts to_ illegally increase our fees but what do you do about it? When you have a chance to

voice your concerns, you conveniently- forget your ID cards or simply decide not to bother to vote. To those of you who did vote - 1 applaud you. To those who didn’t (more than 76 per cent of you) - I have no sympathy for your concerns. Until you whiners get of your asses and take the time to participate in student affairs (five minutes, boys and girls, that’s all it took to vote] you (and the rest of us) will ultimately be losers. Don’t bore me with your petty excuses for not voting. If I sound pissed-off - you’re right, I am. Not because you didn’t vote for me (that’s entirely your prerogative and 1 accept that) but that you simply couldn’t be bothered to get off your fat asses and vote at all. In all honesty, I’m relieved that 1 wasn’t elected because trying to motivate dead logs isn’t my idea of fun. For those of you who did vote, try to talk some sense into the others. Food for thought, but somewhat hard for most of the you to swallow. Dave Cameron

Letters to the editor always we1come.d

and Larry

“What are you doing this weeke nd?“” Larry asked me one day while I was trying to finish a C.S. assignment. “I’m going to join the Men’s Commission,” 1 told him, and resumed my work. “What’s that?’ he asked. Larry, although very intelligent for a stuffed animal, didn’t have much exposure to the campus. “It was a sort of sarcastic joke,” I told him. “You see, Waterloo doesn’t have a Men’s Commission. We do have a Women’s Commission, though.” “Oh’? What do they do?” he. inquired, and 1 knew that 1 wasn’t going to get a chance to get my assignment finished. “Well. . . lots of things,” I said as 1 tried to come up with an example. “For instance, remember the letter they sent to the Imprint a few weeks ago about the fraternities and sororities on campus ? They were concerned that if these groups became Federation organizations, they might break the rules about equality of the sexes when they elect their executives, and all that.” “Why do we have rules like that?” Larry asked, extending the conversation yet again. “Well . . . ,” I began, “It’s. . . uh y . . not really nice to discriminate. In fact, it’s unconstitutional.” “But what about the Safety Van‘?” “What do you mean?’ I asked. “Doesn’t the Safety Van give preference to females?” Larry elaborated. “Well, yeah, but that’s different. Females are in greater danger when walking home. There’s a statistical basis for the decision. The constitution calls this ‘demonstrably justified’.” “Most fraternities and sororities are segregated by sexes,_aren’t they? Isn’t that a statistical basis?” “Not quite,” 1 said, but 1 didn’t

elaborate. It’s very difficult to argue with a stuffed animal at times. There was a short silence in which I thought 1 might actually get back to my C.S. assignment, but then Larry asked, “So why don’t we have a Men’s Commission?” “Well, I suppose that they’d be formed to promote equality of the sexes, and to point out men’s rights

under law, and all that. 1 would like to assume that if the Women’s Commission is really serious about equality, then they would already extend this service to men.” “Then why are they called the Women’s Commission‘?” Larry asked. “I don’t know, Larry,” I said. “I don’t know.”

Non-smokers are not generally trying to intimidate smokers To the editor, 1 am writing in response to Alan Vanderhoek’s article entitled, “To Smoke or Not to Smoke?” in the February 20 edition of Imprint. In this article, he acknowledges that cigarette smoke poses a health hazard, yet he then goes on to make an unusual comparison between smoking and the pollution of our rivers. He compares the effects of smoking to the existence of toxic chemicals in our rivers, and to the air pollution caused by factories and automobiles. The question should not be, “which is worse, pollution from cigarettes, or pollution from cars?” - the fact is that both pose problems, and the existence of one should not justify the other. he seems to think that the efforts to reduce smoking should be comparable to the efforts being made to reduce the pollution in our rivers, and if such efforts aren’t made in one area, they should not be used in the remaining areas. If pollution can be reduced, then steps should be taken to accomplish this. The excuse that other types of

pollution exist does not justify ignoring the hazards posed by smoking. If this were the case, we could simply dump more toxic waste into the rivers, saying that the river was already polluted, and any additional chemicals wouldn’t change the situation. I also think that he is dramatizing the actions of the non-smokers in our society. With the exception of a few extremists, who can be found in any group, most non-smokers are not seeking to terminate smokers we just want a bit of consideration, too. Not too long ago, we were the ones who were intimidated - being surrounded by smokers who were often inconsiderate. (Nobody appreciates smoke being blown in one’s face.) 1 don’t believe that banning smoking on campus is the answer, that is too drastic a measure, and it infringes on the rights of smokers. The solution proposed by Mr. Vanderhoek is a good one, even if his reasoning appears to be “a bit off”. Michelle Altenburger Applied Studies.

’ Frat controversy center of .$Feb. student council meeting by Andrea Luxon Imprint staff

)

’

The current controversy over fraternities and sororities at UW was the center of attention at the February 15 student council meeting. Two fraternities and sorority are currently seeking official recognition from the Federation of Students in order to attain club status. A committee was set up by student council eight months ago and it finally submitted its recommendations at this meeting and it was received with a great deal of confusion. As a result not much was decided about whether the fraternities or soror@ should be recommended to the committee of presidents by the student cou.ncil. A subsidiary motion was moved by Federation President Scott Forrest: Be it resolved that students’ council request the fratemity/sorority committee present a referendum motion at the next students’ council meeting dealing with all aspects of recognition of fraternities and sorority. An amended motion was moved by Arts representative Ian Mitchell: Be it resolved that students’ council accept the subsidiary motion replacing the words “all aspects of recognition of fraternities and sororities” with “the issue of fraternity access to Federation services and resources, the form of recognition fratemities/sororities desire and how if at all, such recognition would contravene Federation policy. The motion was carried 5-3-5.

Sundav/Dimanche

The original motion was read again after Terry Chalmers became so frustrated with the lack of consideration from the student council for his hard and dedicated work, as the impartial person in the committee, that he withdrew all of his previous motions. Chalmers: Be it resolved that the Federation of Students recommend to the committee of presidents to

recognize fraternities or sororities or any Greek letter social society only if they are not in contravention of existing policies, bylaws or any pati contained within. Carried: 8-5- 1. With this direction from the student council the committee will go back to the drawing board and come up with the information requested by the student council.

Lisa Skinner, the Federation’s vice-president-elect (university affairs) is exuberant about her new job. “It’s still sinking in that 1 won,” she mused. “Toward the end of the campaign I had to make a 180 per cent effort”. Although she is happy to have Ted Carlton (president-elect) and Andrew Abouchar (v-p - op&ations and finance) as her new colleagues, she said she would have welcomed the opportunity to work with any of the candidates. She even has kind words about the Amigos. “They were an essential part of the campaign. They just wanted to show that people without experience can get involved and help fight apathy. They even brought up some valid concerns like the noise level at Fed Hall and a new, free Fed book.” She is eager to get moving with the North Campus townhouse project, which is expected to begin on March 1. The four-phase project will begin admitting occupants in September. Skinner acknowledged the thorough work on the project done by her predecessor, Matt Erickson. Skinner’s other major interest is the are? of women’s issues with particular emphasis on campus safety. Ideas she is considering include the installation of emergency phones in various locations, the widening and illuminating of pathways and the appropriate rearrangement of bushes. Other women’s issues include such things as encouraging women to enter non-traditional academic disciplines but, due to the very general nature of such activities, they will take a back seat to the more concrete

activities related to campus safety. Along with Carlton and Abouchar, she would like to step up Federation lobbying for increased university funding. “Other universities now look to Waterloo for leadership in fighting underfunding. We want to keep this up,” she said. Skinner said that students should get involved in Kitchener-Waterloo’s municipal politics. Along with Carlton, she would like to see student representation on city council.

sororities and maintains the Feds should have no connection with them, although there is nothing stop ping them from existing off campus. Even beyond the charges of blatant sexism, she is against the whole concept of a club that wants to admit some people and turn away others. “We don’t need that kind of elitism in 1987,” she said. Like everyone involvid in Student politics at this university and likely at all universities, she wants to encourage more school spirit and greater

D.eath&penalty is not the real answer says Amnesty

5,000 Cal,gary students rally to oppose budget cuts by Fleur Macqueen Imprint staff What was intended to be a noonhour debate and on-campus rally protesting recent funding cuts turned into the largest student protFst in the University of Calgary’s history last week when more than 5,000 I marched off the campus, backing up traffic for blocks on three major roadways. The rally, which took place February 11, was organized following Alberta Tories’ announcement of a three per cent educational funding cut. Earlier iri the day Fine Arts students staged a protest outside their acting dean’s office after his decision to eliminate the department’s ceramits program. Students made pottery which they smashed upon completion to symbolize the nonexistent future of their work at the university.

by Nancy McLean Imprint staff

After the rally approximately 50 graduate students occupied the ofices of the university’s vice-presidents for nearly an hour. While there they discussed possible effects of the funding cuts and read an open letter to the vice-president (academic) upon his arrival. Dr. George Fritz, president of the faculty association, praised the students’ demonstrations in a speech during the rally and encouraged them to keep up the pressure on the government and the university administration. Several other professors also openly expressed their support. Despite the huge turnout of students, government officials stated the funding cuts were “fried”. In an earlier interview, Dave Russell, the minister of advanced education in Alberta, said “If I was back in my student days and there was a good protest going on, I would partic$&te too. It’s-prt-of student life.”

Death penalty continued

from

page

How can Canada even consider reinstating the death penalty, an archaic, ineffective, cruel and inhumane form of punishment which violates the human rights of those who are condemned? Why do there exist governments which condone the commitment of murder - a second crime - in the name of justice? On February l 18, Group 9 (Kitchener Waterloo Chapter) of the Canadian Section of Amnesty International held a press conference to announce the start of a worldwide campaign, which, it is hoped, will increase public awareness of the facts which surround this very issue, the issue of capital punishment. At the press conference, the purpose and methods of the campaign (which will run until June 30,1987) were explained, and the involvement of AlCS(ES) and the local K-W group was described. The main objective of the campaign is that of progressively restricting the number of offenses for which the death penalty may be imposed with a view to the desirability of abolishing this punishment.

other category of offender. Whites have only rarely been sentenced to death for killing blacks. More than 40 per cent of death row prisoners are black. Twelve per cent of the US pop ulation is black. In the United States, more than two-thirds of all executions since 1977 have been in the southern states of Florida, Georgia and Texas.) As evidence of cruelty. Amnesty international cites a series of cases: - it took 14 minutes to kill one prisoner in the electric chair in Aiabama in 1983 and during his eiectrocution smoke and flame erupted from his head and leg. - Another had convulsions for eight minutes while he was being gassed in Mississippi. - in Texas, a prisoner complained of pain for 10 minutes as he was killed with an injection of poison in 1984. - it took 40 minutes to find a suitable vein for the injection of lethal fluids into the arm of a drug addict.

Fact #l: Virtually every study undertaken in Canada, the USA and Great Britain has shown that the death penalty does not reduce the number of murders and other violent crimes more effectively than other punishments. (Studies have been undertaken in Canada and Great Britain before and after the abolition of capital punishment and also, between neighboring American states which do and do not advocate the death penalty). Furthermore, the vast majority of people who commit murder do not see beyond their action. Most murders are committed quickly, in moments of great fear or emotional stress and under the influence of

A better alternative drugs or alcohol. if the crime is premeditated, generally the criminal does not believe that he/she will be apprehended or executed. Does a psychotic sit down to rationally weigh out the pros and cons of killing a stranger? Fact #2: Release on parole is by no means automatic (release or grant of parole rate is approximately 30 per cent for ail offenders). Only four people in Canadian history have been paroled on a murder conviction and then murdered again. it is, indisputably, a horrible fact that these four people were able to kill again, and it is true that death would have permanently put an end to the activities of these criminals, but a better aiternative must exist (eg. more stringent laws governing the release of prisoners). Fact #3:No civilized society should even consider weighing human life in terms of dollars and cents. Human beings should not be executed in order to save money. This-fact set aside, research indicates that the cost of executions would be an added expense for the public. Federal correctional setices c@ each Canadian only $23 per yeaf: The overall cost would not be reduced by one or 10 or even 100 executions. No significant savings would occur unless a maximum or minimum security institution could be closed completely. A 1982 study in New York concluded that the average murder trial and the first stage of appeals costs taxpayers $1.8 million - more than twice as much as it costs to keep a person in prison for life. Fact #4: Victims’ loved ones need to express their feelings to those who will listen patiently. They need compensation for the damages and burdens caused by the offense. And, they need the right to information about the case. These needs are not met effectively, however, by killing someone else. ‘An execution cannot restore life 6r lessen the loss for the victim’s family. Fact lf5: A Department of Justice study has shown that Canadians perceive violent crime to be seven times worse than it actually is. Public opinion is influenced by television and other media coverage of violence from the United States, where the homicide rate is 9.80 (Canada’s is 2.66). Public opinion polls are frequently quoted to show that the majority of Canadians support the death penalty: But results of polls depend upon the questions asked, the state of the economy and various other factors. A recent Gallop Poll in Canada showed that 64 per cent of Canadians who favour the return of the death penalty feel that it is a deterrent to murderers. Ontario criminology researchers suggest that if Canadians were fully informed about the facts of capital punishment, the polls would show a different result. Amnesty international’s Group 9 plans to continue speaking with local church groups and high school students, and hopes to incite people in the K-W area to write to government officials to voice their opposition to the death penalty. Data cited -in this article was obtained from an official Amnesty International news release and from a pamphlet distributed by Amnesty International entitled “‘The Death Penahy is Not the Answer.”

. INTERNA WOMEN’S Sunday, March 8, 1987 marks the 76th official anniversary of International Women’s Day (1 WD), 1 a symbolic celebration of women’s ongoing struggles for equality. How did IWD originate and what is the significance of its recognition in today’s supposedly “post-feminist” world? Not unlike much historical evidence that discloses the political power of women, information regarding the history of International Women’s Day is difficult to find. What information we do have reveals that international Women’s Day originally evolved from a feminist/socialist coalition. That broad’ vision of human rights and dignity is still reflected in today’s IWD celebrations. Some of the events that contributed to its formation are described below: It began on March 8,1857, when women working in the clothing and textile factories of New York demonstrated against poor wages, the 12-hour work day and intolerable working conditions. Exactly three years later, these same women formed their first union. In 1907, a German socialist named Clara Zetkin joined with other women concerned about oppression and demanded that the Austrian Social Democrats grant women the right to vote. They succeeded. At the 1907 Congress of the Second International in Stuggart, it was resolved that women could vote and that their fight be dealt with in conjunction with the working class movement, and not the bourgeois reformists. On March 8 of the following year, back in New York City, 128 women died in a fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory. Their deaths triggered an enormous demonstration by the New York garment industry. Thousands lobbied for safer working con-

ditions, tair wages, an end to child labour and the right to vote. In 1910, at the Second International Conference of Socialist Women, Zetkin proposed that March 8 be set aside to recognize the past struggles of women and to celebrate their world-wide solidarity and action. The first International Women’s Day was enthusiastically celebrated in 1911 by thousands in Denmark, Austria, Germany and Switzerland. On March 8, 19 12, 14,000 textile workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts (most of them women), went on strike for a better quality of life and financial security. Five years later, in Russia’s St. Petersburgh, female textile workers began a strike that helped initiate the Russian revolution. This brief history of International Women’s Day reminds us that the feminist movement’s roots are entwined with the struggle for human liberation. Women’s struggles against oppression are not rooted in man-hating, the hope for an asexual society, or any other ridiculous notion that it is, unfortunately, falsely associated with today.

Feminism is not just a set of rules, not a sub-culture or a simple philosophy. It’s not just having a career, nor is it against having a family or children. Feminism is neither dated nor outdated. Essentially, feminists recognize that no one will ever agree on every issue; nevertheless, it is possible to ‘work on matters of universal importance through shared principles and values. Marion Dewar, Mayor of Ottawa (1978-1984), has effectively articulated the essence of Interna-

On March 8, let’s recognize and celebrate our past accomplishments to nourish us with the energy and humanistic attitudes we need to continue our struggle in the future. As heard in the old song Bread and Roses, “The rising of women/ Means the rising of the race. ” Join in the IWD celebrations next week (March 2 to March 8)., and carry its spirit throughout the year.

AlI aboard the Spadina by Peter Lawson Imprint staff The bus, yes the Spadina Bus, stopped at the Bombshelter on Tuesday evening, February 24. The house was sold out and the zanies came out behind mod shades and coloured robes. The Shuffle Demons, a heavily occult influenced band - fur shure, gave the crowd what they wanted. Drummer Stich Wynston summed them up: “(We) try to get away from that serious jazz attitude. Also, I don’t really think that we are a jazz band - a variety of styles . . . Good thing about the clothes, the fun, and the lack of a serious attitude is that we sneak in a few outside jazz tunes. People can relate to it more because it’s not so serious because of the schtick.” The band captures the novel with the clothes and the antics coupled with cover tunes like Tequila, Hawaii Five 0, or Hockey Night in Canada Theme. They are not all camp, they tackled some jazz standards with some degree of success. Good Bye Porkie Pie by Charles Mingus fell short on rhythmic feel, but was passable. The band’s best work arises when tackling a simple driving head and backing it with a ton of craziness. Their big name tune, Spadina Bus, is a successful example of this sound. Now, pay attention while Stich accounts how the band was formed. “The link is jazz. I am the original Toronto band member and two of the guys (Mike Murley - tenor sax and Dave Parker - tenor sax) are

from Nova Scotia. Bass player (Jim Vivian) is from Newfoundland. Richard (Richard Underhill - head demon alto and baritone saxes), the leader, is from B.C. “Richard, Mike and I meet at York University in the Jazz Workshop. Dave is a childhood friend of Mike’s that is the connection there. Jim, Mike and I meet at the Banff School of Fine Arts summer Jazz Workshop which we attended. I was there from ‘82 to ‘84. Mike was there ‘83 and ‘84, and Jim was there ‘82, ‘83, .and ‘85. So, there was an overlap. Funny thing about the band is that it is not like we got together and said let’s form a band; it was more like an improvised thing the whole way. It was originally a street band. Started playing on street corners (Buskers) in Toronto. “Demon Richard Underhill has been playing the streets for 10 years and he was living with Demon Mike Murley and one day Mike decided to come out and join him, and they had a great time and made lots of money. And the next day Dave and I came out and joined them and the Shuffle Demons were BORN.” Did you get that?’ Since that humble beginning in 1984, they have toured as buskers in Europe during the summer of 1985 and returned to that Toronto thing and recorded their first record. The first vinyl slice was issued on their own label Stubby Records - dedicated to those brown jugs we used to know. This record has sold 3,500 copies, and another 1,000 have been ordered. A&A Records has or-

The Shuffle

Demons

dered a bunch for national distribution and a connection in Europe has been made for possible distribution

there. The Demons are hoping for a State-side connection, which accounts for 50 per cent of the world’s

Bus! music market. Through Stich, there is a possible chance for some American action: give it time. They can credit some of their Canadian success to their video Spa&a Bus. Because the visual of the Shuffle Demons is a vital part of their show, the video helps move their visual image across this country. During a festival, Frost Bite Festiual, in Whitehorse this past weekend, they encountered people who had seen them on MuchMusic. Seeing videos as a positive means of spreading Demonhood, they plan to shot another - possibly for Get Out of My House, Roach. And finally that burning question you need to satisfy. Where did you get those crazy slacks and tops? Stich supplies, “The clothes are kind of improvised too, because Richard likes to wear those funky Hawaiian shirts and stuff, and this sort of influenced Mike and I to,come to York University everyday with this stuff on. Then we would start borrowing his shirts, and eventually along the way we upgraded our wardrobe. These are called Gimi Suits. We decided to take our act on the road and went to Europe in the summer of ‘85 and busked. Met an African street vendor in Paris named Gimi who made us all these suits, so we called them our Gimi Suits. Named a tune after him and these suits called Gabi’s Gimi Suit which is on our album.” Cest tout. If you missed them/here, catch them in Toronto at clubs like the Horseshoe, the Bamboo, and Clinton’s, or they will be shufflin’ in a neighbourhood near you.

Merritt Provides Princely Performance by Gord Durnin Imprint staff Sunday night at the Princess is a strange time and place to hear a concert from the likes of Scott Merritt, that ‘is at first glance. Another look and it makes perfect sense. Here is an alternate performer per-

Scott

Merritt

forming at an alternative hour in an alternative concert hall which itself offers alternatives to the mainstream of entertainment. Merritt was slick, the sound fantastic and the band . . . well, the band: old hand David Woodhead on bass, Doug Wilde at the keyboards, Bob DiSalle behind the drumkit, and

“Mantecan” Matt Zimbell in the percussion corner: tight and exciting. But then that is always the case with Merritt’s show. The only thing that was left to desire as we all sat staring down Mr. Scott’s throat in the intimacy and soft seats provided at the Princess, was dance space. Merritt makes music for the dance. But before being yet another reviewer attempting yet another explanation of what Scott Merritt is all about, it is worth mentioning the beginning of the show. The lights are down, Merritt and Wilde run up on stage. The synthesizer starts the beginning of Stick Man. People applaud with instant recognition. The stage lights go on. Merritt hits a chord on the Stratocaster and signals for the level to be turned up. He faces the microphone, hits another chord and signals for the level to be turned up. Another chord, another signal . . . Merritt goes to check the stack of electronic gadgets beside him on stage. Another chord and Merritt crawls underneath the keyboards, disappearing from sight. The synthesizer drones on. The soundmen run up and the stage is crawling with people checking cords and dials. Merritt is back and gives Wilde the “slash the throat” signal. The synthesizer dies. Then suddenly the problem is solved and the words of Stick Man, “spastic with the power of invention,” are exploding from the stacks. So goes Merritt’s me% sage about technology and the ur-

banity of the technological society he/we live in. Merritt is, in his own way, “howling” like Ginsberg, only it’s 1987. That is what Scott Merritt is all about. The technical fuck-up on Sunday was as ironic as it was appropriate. Merritt says of the subject of his writing, “I write about where I grew up, characters I’ve met; suburb psychosis. I suspect all those prettv houses are not as simple as they look. I really doubt if they are.” Well neither is a stage-set, is it Scott? His work goes deep, probing the psychology of his middle class, North American past, suggesting the trapped feelings he associates with it. There is the sameness, the repetition and the blind faith in it all, that he sees everywhere around him. In my words it’s the angst of 1987 middle-America, in his, it’s, “the neurosis of the middle class.” It amounts to the same thing. And the music too, with its Cleavy -!V---/QPk~

rhythm and electronic inputs, suggest the feeling of being trapped, overwhelmed, by the technological beast. Thus Scott Merritt is a coherent, consistent, unit delivering his art to those folk, with whom he has experience in common. Did someone say folk? Yes, folk(s)! In a pro fession that demands the practice of reducing artists to single labels, in categories that are as flexible as Brian Mulroney on “free-trade”. Scott Merritt is-a folk artist. ’ ’ It is something like Bob Dylan or Bruce Cockburn standing up, strap ping on, plugging in (and some would say, selling out). Merritt’s message is not, as he says, “revolutionary”, the subject matter has been dealt with before by others. Merritt’s creative contribution comes with the way he communicates. He plays music with electronic trappings in a world where he is trapped by electronics. Give him a listen sometime.

by Chris Wodskou Imprint staff The best-selling independent blues/soul artist in the U.K. last year was not Robert Gay, but a M-yearold American named Ted Hawkins who has spent the better part of his life drifting and panhandling throughout the southern U.S., most notably in Venice Beach, California (better known as home of Hulk Hogan) where he was discovered and turned into a star by BBC DJ Andy Kershaw. The reasons for his popularity are fairly simple. For one thing, he embodies the romantic myth the British hold about the American blues singer; a tradition rooted in the Depression, a lonely black man riding the rails with his only possession a battered acoustic guitar, singing for his supper to anyone who% listenBut more importantly, his voice is simply a revelation, one of the best to emerge from the blues and soul scene in recent memory. Reminiscent of Sam Cooke with a sometimes sweet falsetto infused with the huskiness so essential to a classic blues voice when the going becomes painful or bittersweet, he is capabk of evoking a deep feeling of pathos like virtually no one else today. His singing is made yet more affecting and heart-rending by a frailty, a hint of vulnerability and sad regret that brings his voice oh so close to breaking.

Accompanied sympathetically by a starkly strummed acoustic guitar, On The Boardwalk, his second album of 1986, still sounds like the busker collecting a hat-full of change on Venice Beach. A collection of covers both somewhat obscure and often unlikely, On The Boardwalk is the testament of an artist who has an abiity to take over a song and turn it into something entirely his own rivalled only by the likes of Areaha. I Got What I Wanted could make of quarry-full of stone break down with its sadness and Bring it On Home To Me is the best cover he ever heard of the Sam Cooke classic. Perhaps most impressive, however, considering the material he was working with, are his versions of Country Roads and Green Green Grass of Home. It’s testimony to a very special talent that can give a sense of the joy and arrival of homecoming to John Denver’s Aspen-skilodge-smarm and that he can take the most Vegasy and overwrought melodrama of the Tom Jones ‘classic’ and turn it into a huge lump in your throat, changing the last chorus to, “Yes, they% ail come to see me/As they lay me by the old oak tree/there, beneath the green, green grass of home. ” The quintessential Hawkins touch. Although he’s been kicking around in anonymity for years, Ted Hawkins is perhaps the most important newcomer to the R&B scene since Robert Gay. An earthy, sensitive voice and 12 wonderful, touching songs, On The Boardwalk is one of the benchmark albums of the past year.

With their muscular cover version of Prince’s Kiss, Age Of Chance have become teen magazine glossy picture pop stars in Britain. It finished near the top of the polls in readers’ and critics’ charts alike in Britain last year for best single and best dance single. They make their home on Fon Records, owned by moguls and part-time funksters, Chakk. Fon is also called home by the simply wonderful SeditionWhere the original was all coyness and subtlety (and one of the most amazing grooves created by man or beast), Age of Chance have given Kiss ripp1ing muscles and heavy drums. Amazingly enough, with all this added bulk, Kiss still has some of Prince’s groove left. Learning lessons from Julian Cope, who has released no less than six different versions of Trampolene so far, Age of Chance have released three different versions of the Kiss single: the regular 12”, a limited edition Sonic Crush Sym-

by Chris Wodskou Imprint staff Why is it that all these Quebecois bands sound the same? You know, the ones you see on MuchMusic on Sunday afternoons with endless banks of synthesizers and Le Chateau-chic haircuts, the ones who sound like those variety shows on Channel 47’s TeleLatino hour -or those Saturday Morning kiddie shows with a live studio audience of hundreds of kids screaming like this band that’s lip-synching is the greatest thing since, oh, 1 dunno, The DeFranco family or something. Bundock (that’s with an umlaut for that ultracool Teutonic effect) is the latest batch of haircuts and headbands from La Belle Province to bring further ruination to the musical reputation of Bill 101~land. Case in point: the opening cut on this five-tracker called Mauve (geez, what’s their next record‘ gonna be called - fuchsia?!), American Singer, starts out with up-front acoustic strumming, but then the ghost of Rene Simard comes in and rattles his chains and sez, “Hey, funky dudes, this isn’t nearly cheesy enough,” and then this guy who warbles like an unwell Bono crossed with Charles Aznavour breaks into the chorus: “American-a singer, American-a legend, American-a pray-er mmmm . . . bup bup bup.” Bup bup bup! If this isn’t the most monumentally insipid thing I’ve heard since Dancing On The Ceil ing, then I’m King Kong Bundy. The rest of this mini-album (not nearly mini enough) fares no better. How can anyone take a song like Come On (Buby Tonight) se; riously? Replete with the limpest Chuck Berry guitar solo imitation l’ve ever heard which bridges into a woodwind break of all things, the big problem is that Bundock seem to take all of this deathly seriously. Oh well, if they’re so intent on making asses of themselves, what can we do but laugh? And Be For Tomorrow is just about the most embarrassingly mawkish ballad around, enough to make even Phil Collins lose his breakfast. PIease don’t buy this record. It’ll only encourage them.

phony remix and a six-track miniLP which includes ,a blowout rendition of The Trammps’ classic Disco Inferno. The original 12” is essentially a straight verse-chorus cover of the song with group chants and shouts and whiny vocals in place of Prince’s falsetto. Some entity called “D.J. Chakk” (hmmmm) remixes for the Sonic Crush Symphony where extended breaks and industrial noises are mixed into the song to create a hulking monster of rhythmic intensity comparable to Chakk’s own Out of The Flesh. While the version of Kiss on the Mini-LP is pretty thrpwaway compared to the other two versions, the

by Paul Done imprint staff Somewhere along the long road of pop music, the word “soul” lost its meaning. In the ‘~OS, the overwhelming majority of records which are called soul or soulful are nothing of the sort - Oran “Juice” Jones’ misanthropic braggadocio, Simply Red’s empty wimpout gesturing or the endless stream of bedroom mire poured out by less well-known artists. Tashan, the latest singer to be called soulfwl is, like the others, not soulful at all. His debut LP Chasin’ A Dream is stuck in the same pit of over-production and emotional emptiness as all the soul pretenders.

extra songs (four unreleased before now) are superb. The version of Disco Inferno is simply amazing: it starts off with a wall of feedback which then collapses into raw noise for a minute or so before kicking into an unrestrained, warp-speed rave-up. Like compatriots The Wedding Present (whose fab Peel Session EP has just been released domestically) or The Jasmine Minks, Age of Chance combine poppy melodies with adrenaline-charged guitar. Unlike their hyperspeed companions though, Age of Chance have a monstrous rhythm section to propel their songs through the light-speed barrier. He has managed to mimic all the vocal inflections of all his heroes without any of the innate timing and heartfelt intensity. The songs, with one exception, are at fuck-rock slow pace but sadly, they lack the sense of humour and campiness of a Teddy Pendergrass and end up as unadulterated macho crap. Likewise, he never manages to cut through the gloss of the layers of synthesizer - even lush Philly soul had an edge to it, just listen to The O’Jay’s 992 Arguments or For The Loue of Money. The use of synthesizers doesn’t mean that an LP cannot be soulful: just listen to Marvin Gaye’s Midnight Love and Womack and Womack’s Love Wars. In this case though, Tashan never manages to break through the thick veneer of gloss which coats the whole record. Chasin’ A Dream is soul music without the soul, Rhythm and Blues without the Blues. An unsatisfying musicai meal.

Sure, Mitchell Froom (whom you may remember from Declan’s King of America) and his Hammond organ have almost completely replaced the accordion and so the fragile charm has been lost in the shadow of the new show of power but this is a part of their growth and evolution as a band. The songs still speak with that same upward-looking pride which is and has always been the essential thrust of their music whether it’s played on banjos, guitars, or synclavier. It shines through so brightly it can be sensed in Prenda De/Alma even if you can’t understand Spanish.

Adding a full-time guitarist, John Lanthier, Red, Hot, And Blue has Condition moving on from the minimalist combo feel of Mumbo Jumbo to a full, well-produced sound that makes them more accessible without sacrificing their, uh, zaniness, for lack of a better word.,

Zaniness intact Boogie Man gets things rolling, a willfully silly and disarming chip of rootsy; twangy rock that picks up on the precedent set by their contribution to Og’s It Came From Canada Vol. 2, Ghost Train. Then things take a turn for the bizarre as

they take on IPut A Spell On You, Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ classic of ’ swamp madness, doing for it roughly what Devo did for Satisfaction; this is either the all-time best or worst cover of Spell of all time.

Pre-‘60s pop They manage to do the nearly impossible on side-two, coming up with an almost original-sounding cover of Feuer. Finally, they make a return to the territory covered by Mumbo Jumbo with the aptly named Hauana, sounding like The B-52’s doing the soundtrack for one of those late-‘40s mambo movies starring Carmen Miranda in a hat piled three feet high with pineapples and bananas. Condition are undoubtedly an acquired taste but it may just be the mixture you’re after. An ambitious and likable, if irreverent and somewhat flawed, potpourri of pre-‘60s POP.

this record a listen. There’s nothing terribly in-depth to be found, but its good to see that Kraftwerk can still compete and, in fact, come out on top in the electro:disco sweeps.

by John Zachariah Imprint staff Electric Cafe, by Kraftwerk, apes a style of music the fans of which probably couldn’t colour inside the lines when Trans Europe Express was released. There’ll probably some listeners out there who hear Electric Cafe, the last song on the record, and think the German synth jockeys ripped off Afrika Barnbatta’s Planet -dock. What these smarties may not know is that the synth line on Planet Rock was origiz nally stolen from a Kraftwerk song. The fathers of electro-disco have returned in fine form, with a record of dance music surprisingly less soulless than one would expect. The three songs on side-one supply a sort of rhythmic skeleton for those on side two: Boing Boom Tschak, Techno Pop and Musique Non Stop are dry, bare dance tracks with lots of drum muscle. No wimpy Casio beats here. Side-two opens with The Telephone Call, which is the way New Order wishes they could sound, but don’t. A great song for found phone sounds, it is considerably more deserving of rotation in clubs than whining teenage gloom pop. Sex Object is wonderfully tongue-in-cheek; over a freeze-dried, pasteurized, robotic synth line, the singer belts, “I don’t want to be your sex object/Show some feeling . . . “ The disc closes with the aforementioned Electric Cafe.

The Jacobite’s

Back ordinary for the Jacobites is an instrumental The Old Church Steps which features, almost exclusively, bat kward recorded guitars and cymbals. Tenderly skewed love songs like Someone Who Cares, I Believe In You and Country Girl seem to have now become the rule rather than the exception. So it is with Texas. However on this, Sudden’s latest album, the production is much thicker employing piano, violins, organ, bells, acoustic and electric slide. Probably Sudden’s most powerful work to date is the 7:40 epic When ILeft You which deals with the disintegration of a relationship. In it, the choruses are alternately given as “when I left you” and “when you left me”. A simple device which goes a long way in describing the misunderstandings and finger pointing that occur in situations like this. It’s immediately clear that he knows first hand of what he speaks:

by Tim Perlich Imprint staff Any discussion of Nikki Sudden must - necessarily begin with the Swell Maps. Around the time that Jonathan Richman was putting the first version of the Modern Lovers together in the Boston area, Nikki Sudden was jamming after school in Birmingham with Epic Soundtracks and David Barrington. 1972 was a good year for getting bands together. Five years of ‘ironing out the rough spots’ left them, in 1977, more than ready to explode on a scene just cleared by Wire, The Mekons, and the Television Personalities. It took a single and a Peel session to get Rough Trade interested in the group. By 1979, the Swell Maps had two more singles another Peel session and an album A Trip To Marineville. Although the album was not an enormous seller, the vibrant bursts of shambling sing along pop it contained acted as a blueprint for the indie pop scenes of Scotland that soon followed and the jangle explosion of today. In 1980 the Swell Maps quasar fizzled. The group split up after a tour of Italy but would not be their last word. Later that summer Rough Trade released the studio aibum Jane From Occupied Europe that they had completed prior to the break. This was followed in 1981 by another LP (a double this time), Whatever Happens Next of unreleased material that included home recordings of the band dating back as far as 1974.

So you just pack a suitcase Since the split in 1980, Epic Soundtracks has played with Robert Wyatt, Red Crayola, Crime and the City Solution, Jazz Butcher, and on many of Nikki Sudden’s solo projects. After making a couple of solo albums, an LP with the Palookas and one with the House Hunters, Jowe Head now plays with a reformed Television Personalities who seem to have finally found their niche. Most prolific of the group has been Nikki Sudden with (at last count) 10 solo albums and a slew of EPs and singles over the last seven years. Not one of these 10 is a compilation album called The Ragged School on the wonderful TwinTone ‘label which of course is the home of the Replacements and Soul Asylum. The record traces his years on the Glass Records label from 1984 to the present in which time he put out three albums and three EPs. The Jacobites, (the name Sudden uses for his various projects) play a sort of folk rock in the manner of Highway 61 period Bob,Dylan, full of heartily strummed chords and searing slide carving out monolithic

R&her

Since that LP, The Jacobites have released a six-song EP When The Rain Comes on Glass and most recently another album, Texas on Alan McGee’s Creation label. The EP features the same sparse production that Sudden has become known for. Not too out of the

Sudden tells the story of love lost and found as if it all happened in a dream the previous night. Easily his best LP yet.

reads from new novel

by Stephanie Kuxdorf Imprint staff Al Reimer, an English professor from the University of Winnipeg, gave a presentation and reading of his new novel entitled My Harp is Turned to Mourning on Tuesday afternoon at Conrad Grebel College. Reimer’s novel (the title is taken from Job 30) was inspired by his .own ancestral heritage as a Mennonite. His novel takes place in the Soviet Union in post World. War I and during the Russian Revolution - a time when the Russian Mennonites (an Anabaptist sect) faced persecution in their homeland because of their non-resistance beliefs. This period in history is also referred to as “the Mennonite Holocaust”. The Mennonites refused to serve in the military on religious grounds. For this reason, many members of the group were forced to emigrate in order to uphold their convictions. Those who chose to remain experienced horrible pain and suffering. Reimer writes about those Mennonites who remained in Russia. His novel centers on individual characters in the Mennonite community to effectively portray the literary myth of a whole group of people. Reimer grew up in southern Manitoba, in a strict Mennonite environment. He said he was a “reboictant” Mennonite and did not

melodies (phew!) The songs bring to mind that other-worldliness that the early Dylan could evoke. It’s similar to that mystical quality that made me want to play Nice’s 111Keep It With Mine over and over again when I first heard it, just to make sure I wasn’t missing anything. Nikki Sudden has a similar ability in creating songs that seem to know more than they’re willing to admit. The production quality is decidedly lo-fi but the slight dirtiness adds a bite that prevents Sudden’s ballads from becoming more sweet than is palatable. His voice is at the same time gruff and weak but bears the same endearing sincerity that Keef can muster whenever Mick lets him sing (slap on Before They M&e Me Run and you’ll see what I mean).‘There are very few enhancements, nothing is put on.

It was here that Reimer first became interested in his cultural heritage, as he discovered his ancestral roots. The experience changed his life and he began to research the Russian Mennonites in depth and wrote several

articles on them. The result of 10 years of intensive research is his historical novel, My Harp is Turned to Mourning. Reimer, who calls himself

a “professional Mennonite”, said that in his novei he hoped to “capture the tragic curve” of the Mennonite. If Tuesday’s reading was any indication, he appears to have accomplished his task successfully. ’

Start Gallery poetry

Poetic Petals take a tumble by Mike O’Driscoll Imprint staff It’s been said that publishing a book of poetry in Canada is like dropping a rose petal into the Grand Canyon and listening for it to land. While that may hold true in some cases, there’s a group of poets right here in Kitchener-Waterloo that are growing their roses large enough and heavy enough that their crashing plunge might not go unnoticed. Every month or so a selection of this city’s literary hopefuls gather in one of downtown Kitchener’s forgotten backrooms for an evening of shared inspiration. The venue is a non-profit artist’s co-operative known as the Start Gallery, the event is a number of poetry readings that comprise the “Suspended Table” series. Sunday night marked the second

installment of the series. Amidst a collection of fiercely expressive artworks from local talent, 11 poets presented their verbal impressions of reality. The verdict: withheld. At best the readings were intense and moving, at worst, thought provoking. More importantly, the entire evening was testimony to the notion that the difference between great and good poetry is proportional to the ego of the critic. Although free-verse was the order of the evening, the reading styles were varied. Messages were delivered via everything from passionate screams to painful whispers to song . . . anything goes. Possibly one of the most surprising elements of the reading was that many of the poets proved themselves able to stay away from the omnipresent cliches of death, love, and the eternal question. Napoleon’s breakfast,

meat market pick-ups, and self proclaimed neuroses were definitely not out of order. It’s worth noting that the “Suspended Table” series boasts more than just poetry. The readings are accompanied by the subtle electronic dabblings of a pair of guitarists with an arsenal of effects; haunting background music adding texture to the emotions already present. In addition, two short acoustic sets were performed by a budding local folk musician. If this is the future of Canada’s literary scene, then the country need not fear for lack of talent. Without a doubt it is gatherings such as this that provide a breeding ground for tomorrow’s artist. Meanwhile, the “Suspended Table” series continues. The next reading is tentatively scheduled for late March, contact the Start Gallery for more information.

Hip Happenings All else pales next week beside the appearance of the legendary Jonathan Richman at the Princess Cinema (quite a coup). Join Jonathan and his band for some campfire soul this coming Tuesday in what is sure to be the best show of the year in these parts. Choke on that, Feds! For those of you who have never heard of Jonathan Richman (or don’t care), take heart; there’s things for you to do as well.

Tonight, Rhythm Activism take the stage at the Level (21); no-one knows much about this lot, and most of us don’t care, since we’ll all be whooping it up at the Imprint hoe-down. Competing with Jonathan on Tuesday night is the presentation of Nosferatu (the original) as part of the International Film Series at the HUM. A scary movie for sure. On Wednesday, classical guitarist Alexand Lagoya plucks the catgut

at the HUM, and grunge-mongers Deja Voodoo play the Turret. Also on Wednesday, Beverly Bratty, who fronts the Babysitters, will play solo for her fans at Fed Hall. On Thursday, Science for Peace will be showing two NFB movies about Margaret Laurence and Dr. Rosalie Bertell, respectively. That’s at AL 113, at 12:30 p.m. Finally, next Friday, Montreal jazz band UZEB hits the Coronet.

Teamwork that the others would be proud of

*--

by Peter Lawson Imprint staff With a cohesive team spirit, the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony Orchestra and guest conductor Agnes Grossman rendered a strong performance of a strong program at Centre in the Square on Friday evening, February 20. The music of Beethoven, Mozart, Schumann, and Dvorak was a satisfying fare for all musical tastes. Ludwig von Beethoven’s (17701827) Lenore Overture No.3 set the tone for the remaining works. With precise entries, the orchestra gave a good account of this overture which is one of four composed by Beethoven for his only opera Fidelio. Robert Schumann (181 l-1856) composed some imaginative works; and his Konzerstuck in F Major for Four Horns and Orchestra, Opus 86 is a surprising grouping of instruments. Guest artist, Martin Hackleman on French Horn, was joined by the orchestra horn players Carol Lavell, Nina Brickman, and Joy Montgomery for the three movements. Though some passages in the round of solos were ragged, the overall effect was stunning. Martin Hackleman displayed his wares during Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s (1756-1791) Concert No.1 forHorninDMajor, K412.Mr. Hackleman is most famous for his membership in the Canadian Brass, but at the present he is Professor of Music in Boston and plays with the Empire Brass Quintet. Because his musical study did not begin until 16, his extraordinary talent is surprising in a world of baby players. He glides about the notes without strain - no sweat on the brow. The only disappointment with the Mozart Horn Concerto is that it lacks a slow movement (no Adagio or Andante); the opportunity to hear Mr. Hackleman swoon over a long phrase was

missed. The concluding offering, Symphony No.8 in G Major, Opus 88 by Antonin Dvorak ( 1841- 1904), was a satisfying finish. Again, Agnes Grossman moved the.orchestra in a command performance. This program will be presented on Mostly

Music on CBC Radio on Tuesday, March 10. The next Masterpiece Concert will contain music by J.C.Bach, Mozart, Sibelius, and Schafer with guest conductor Pierre Hetu and flutist Robert Aitken on March 13 and 14.

Would you believe Jazz at the Net? by Peter Lawson Imprint staff The jazz-rockers, Uzeb, are returning to play the Coronet on March 6. Their last appearance, last winter, was a great show on a Sunday night, and this Friday night program should prove to be a sizzler. The Exploding Postmen and K-W’s Line One will be solid opening acts and will compliment the intelligent sounds of Uzeb.

UZEB - March 6 Currently touting two new live releases, Uzeb is gaining momentum. One of the new live releases, Uzeb, Live A L’Olympia, contains both previously unreleased material and tunes from the last album Between The Lines. From Between theLines, Mile “0” is a funky-swing, Le Baiser Sale is a jiving tribute to the big band era, and 60 Rue Des Lombards pushes harder on the live vinyl than the studio version. From last years tour, Time Square was a memorable new

UIC finds employment

by Peter Lawson Imprint staff Promoting their album Our Garage with gigs around southern Ontario, UIC rolled through K-W on February 20. The Level 21 show was another rock ‘n’ roll blast from these good 01’ boys from Exeter, now of Toronto. The opening act, a local troupe, played the same style of music as UIC but short on the Richter scale. The Wurst were. UIC ran through the music on their first and latest album Our Garage. The opening song was the album’s title track, and signalled an night of fierce thrash. Their sound is a hybrid of ’60s garage punk, southern rock, punk from the seventies, and a ton of sweat. Beyond covering the material on the album, they covered music by artists they regard highly. They punched out a killer cover of What I Want by New York’s Victims.

He introduces himself and tells of his love for the “Canadian Game” which is equalled by his love for his three Almas. His first Alma was his mother, the second is his wife, and the latest is his daughter. His playing of that game and his love for his “women” are tales which are interwoven throughout the evening. Not only is the play humourous it draws upon memories of sight, smell, and sound which sparkle in every youth who tied on the blades. The memorable remnants of the

His parody of a male locker room conversation is a howl - faahh *.. ‘n’ eh. Do we really sound that pathetic?

by Peter Lawson Imprint staff Hailing the genius of youth with their Musical Prodigies concert, The Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony Orchestra continued their Seagram Sunday Serenade concert series at Centre in the Square on February 15. The youthful music of Mendelssohn and Bruch, and the mature tones of Mozart and Vivaldi were presented in this special afternoon show. Considered one of the greatest composers especially at a very young age, W. A. Mozart (17561791) composed Eine KIeine Nachtmusik, K.525 in his last years. With famous melodies in all four movements, this music has become Mozart’s most celebrated piece. Though A Little Night Music seems misplaced in an afternoon concert and is an overpresented work, the KWSO rendered a fine performance. Conductor, Peter McCoppin, made best use of the dynamics to breath life into this often heard work. Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) at seventeen wrote the overture to A Midsummer Might’s Dream, Opus 21 and expanded the work with 13 more numbers seventeen years later. The KWSO performed the Overture, the Scherzo, the Nocturne, and the Wedding March to begin the program’s second half. After a ragged start in the Ouerture, Mr. McCoppin halted the band and began again, but this movement never jumped into cohesion. The remaining movements were served better, especially the fine injections from the principal wind players. The presence of the orchestra was overshadowed by a musical prodigie. Young Canadian violinist Corey Cerovsek dazzled the full house with his finger agility and quiet stage manner. When most Canadian male hoseheads of 14 are dreaming of playing for the Cana-

dian National Street Hockey Team, this young gent is involved in his third year at Indiana University where he is acing musical theory and mathematics. When he is not expanding his knowledge, he is touring worldwide to perform with renowned orchestras or recitals with his sister, Katja a fine pianist. Moving from dashing runs to swooning legato, Corey Cervosek won all ears (and hearts) with Max Bruch’s (1838-1920) Concerto No.1 for Violin in G minor, opus 26. The concluding work, Winter from the Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741), was delicate in the balance between soloist and orchestra. The string pizzicato accompaniment under the violin soloist was especially moving in the Large movement.

Jonathan Richman and his two piece wall o’ sound backing ensemble (Andy Paley from the dearly departed Pales Brothers cn snare and a rugby player on gee-tar) will play a selection of songs from his latest albums and very likely some as yet unrecorded material in a genre claimed as- being ‘campfire soul’.

One of Toronto’s hottest club performers is finally making her way to Waterloo. Beverly Bratty, enthusiastic soloist and captivating leader of Bratty and the Babysitters, has spent the past three years building her reputation as one of Toronto’s wildest and most eclectic musicians. With the help of the recently released five-track EP In a State and a soon-to-be-seen video, it seems inevitable that Bratty will soon gain the fame and fortune she deserves. After spending eight years building a career as a sales executive, Bratty tossed it out the window and began writing songs. “I couldn’t see spending the rest of my life doing what I was doing”, so she picked up her guitar and started auditioning ror bands. But after three months of constant rejection and some painful soul-searching, she decided to do it on her own. And she now feels that her initial lack of group work has actually proved beneficial in the long run. “Now I’m really glad that I didn’t get a band’ right away, because maybe it would’ve never occurred to me to work as a solo artist, which is something I really enjoy.” Her work as a solo performer has garnered increasing praise and notoriety. Her husky voice skillfully travels through vast emotional territory, expressing the frustration of unrequited love, the agony of unrequited lust, or the eating habits of condominium dogs. Indeed, Bratty’s songwriting is perhaps her strongest asset. Of her songs, she says, “These are politics of love or sex or modern living . . . I just try to express all the things that pass through me as a person, so it’s going to be really broad; I’m not really trying to be political or be a feminist . . . I’m just a person-ist, I guess.” Asked to describe her solo act, Bratty begins “ . . . it’s fun and serious, happy, sad and angry. I’m a complete person. What I do when I perform is I express all those things. . . probably expect me to be a lot wilder than yourstandard solo artist playing a guitar. I will not sit on a stool, I will not stand still. There’ll be a lot of energy in my performance and I hope to be able to cover a lot of different moods and a lot of different topics.” When questioned about her future plans, Bratty freely admits to craving international fame and. glory. For now, though, she’ll have to content herself with the humble confines of Fed Hall, where she appears on Wednesday, March 4. Tickets are $2 for Feds, $3 for others and are available from the Feds or at the door. This is a pittance to pay for someone whose music is setting the Toronto clubs on fire. And at this rate, she won’t always be this easy to catch up to. Bratty sums it up “I look forward to the day when I can go to a city, any city in the world and just be there and the music is already there; you just get to play for those people and your music is already a part of their lives. That’s what I want.”

SPORTS. Warriors fall to Hawks

A capacity crowd at Columbia Ice Fields witnessed the Warriors Hockey team lose the intercity duel last night due to a penalty shot in overtime. The tying goal of the third period was controversial at best as it literally shook the back of the net during the wailing of the buzzer, sending the game into overtime. The Warriors were down 2-1 at the end of the first period but fought their way to a 3-2 lead by the end of the second. The third period was characterized by the usual array of Warrior body blows as they scored one more to make it 4-2. But, before the fans could let out their sigh of relief The Hawks stormed back to bring the game within one goal. With no time left on the clock goalie Mike Bishop found himself in the middle of a Laurier horde who chopped and gouged their way to the equalizer. The two teams battled it out in overtime until once again the Warriors were left with the short end of the stick as Bishop was charged with throwing his baton resulting in a successful Laurier penalty shot to win the game The Warriors play the hawks again this Saturday night at 7:30 at the Waterloo arena.

Warriors thump Hawks in “playoff” by Mike McGraw Imprint staff Playoff basketball, this was not. But amid the hijinks of a game that often resembled a carthe Waterloo Warriors toon, thumped the Laurier Hawks 7452 Tuesday night at the PAC in an OUAA West quarter-fin-al match-up. The win advanced UW to tonight’s semi-final showdown against McMaster at Brock. Brock earned the rite to host the OUAA semis and final after dousing the Warriors last Saturday, 90-78. Most of Tuesday’s first half was a potpourri of errors and bizarre scrambles. Not only did it take more than three minutes for either club to find the hoop, but after almost seven minutes of countless turnovers and frantic shooting, the score was a paltry 4-4. The Hawks and their beleaguered offense were enjoying this one, for they trailed by just lo-9 at the midway point of the half. Waterloo snapped out of it, ripping off 11 straight points in one sequence to take a 31-15 lead to the locker room. UW shot just 35 per cent from the field in the first, while WLU shot a dismal 26 per cent. Both squads began to find the iron in the second, but some occasional flashbacks to the first half allowed the action to remain ragged. UW mounted a consistent offensive game to take a stranglehold of the match, and send the Hawks packing for another season. Rob Froese led the attack with 17 points, while Top Schneider hooped 16. Paul Boyce netted l? and also swiped 10 rebounds. Earlier this week,

both Boyce and Froese were elected to the OUAA West first all-star team. Boyce led all votegetters. Paul DeSantis headed WLU’s offense with 12. UW coach Don McCrae agreed that the game wasn’t the prettiest ever played. “When a team isn’t scoring like Laurier, there’s no rhythm to the game, and it doesn’t appear too pretty.” However, he did add that he saw some positive aspects in his team’s play. “We played well in the second half, we were dishing the ball off inside and outside really well. On defence, we thought we had Laurier under control for most of the game.” The UW-Mac battle begins tonight at 7 at Brock. Mac eliminated Guelph on Tuesday while Western came storming back from a 15 point deficit to dump Windsor. Western will play the host-club Badgers at 9. The winners will meet Saturday afternoon at 2 in a televised game to determine who-heads to Halifax for the Canadian playdowns. The winner will also host the OUAA East champion next weekend to determine the overall OUAA championship. UW won both regular season clashes with Mac this year, in a pair of games that resembled trench warfare. If these two wars are any indication, tonight’s contest should prove to be a barnburning, epic play-off match. The Western-Brock game should be another thriller, as the Mustangs are on a six-game tear, while Brock has notched four straight. Last Saturday’s hoe-down in

Brock can be summed up as this four gigantic Badgers trampled the Warriors in the key. The harrowing statistics speak for themselves - Kevin Moore, 23 pts., 12 rebounds; Rich Lianga, 14 pts.,l6 boards; Kelly Grace 14 pts.,ll boards and Rob MacRae 23 pts. and 4 rebounds. That adds up to an awesome total of 74 points and 43 rebounds, and tells why Brock will be a tough squad to oust this weekend. The Badgers dug a big trench for UW to climb out of early, vaulting to a 15-2 lead by the 5-minute mark. The Warriors managed to sneak back into it, but overall Brock’s frontcourt allowed them to heave up shots at will, and clog the lane on defence. Brock led 45-32 at the half, and threatened -to blow UW back across the Burlington Skyway when they stormed to a 19 point lead two minutes into the second. But like a battered prizefighter, UW hauled itself off the canvas to outscore the Badgers 18-4 over the next 8 minutes to turn it into a tight battle. Yet the Warriors couldn’t crack the ice any further, as Brock’s big men widened the lead once again. UW pulled within 6 points later in the half, but that’s as close as they came, as Brock rallied to take the game. UW experienced their poorest shooting game of the year, counting only 36 per cent from the floor. Boyce stood riors, notching boards. John standout with rebounds, while in 16 points.

Late charge gives UW fish 4th ’ AA swi champi by Graeme Pkppler Imprint staff A late charge in the final evening of the OUAA swimming championships pushed the University of Waterloo’s Warriors into fourth place overall after the two days of competition held last weekend. The combination of Dave Cash, Dave Adams, Jon Budau, and Bill Elgie posted a fourthplace in the 4x100-metre freestyle relay, the final race of the meet, allowing the Warriors to overtake the Brock University team, hosts of the competition in St. Catharines. Finishing with an official time of 3:37.73, the foursome who made up Waterloo’s ‘A’ Team were 12 seconds and-nine positions ahead of the best Brock had to offer in the final race, permitting the Warriors to overcome a 31 point deficit in their quest for a fourth-place finish. Backing-up the gritty performance of the ‘A’ Team was Waterloo’s ‘B’ Team which, due to particularly effective efforts from Langis Roy, Mike Cash, and Joe Milla, scored enough points with an 11th placing to push Waterloo ahead of Brock in the final standings. Although the Waterloo men failed to achieve any medals in either individual or relay events, several outstanding swims were recorded as team members fought for the lower placings in the point-scoring final and consolation final races. Surpassing CIAU standards for the first time in his swimming career was Dave Cash. His determined effort in the LOOmetre freestyle resulted in a time of 1:56.u in the preliminary heats and a fifth-place finish overall later in the final with a time only fractionally slower. Showing the same kind of fervour in his other races, Cash obtained seventh place in the 1500-metre freestyle, taking 17:05.47 to complete that event while a time of 4:11.52 - one second slower than he had obtained earlier in the day - still gave him eighth place in the LOOmetre freestyle. Following in the footsteps of Cash was Gregpye whose bravado in the 1500-metre freestyle earned him a CIAU qualification when he swam to fifth place in a time of 16:44.42. He was equally as impressive in the 400-metre freestyle, finishing in -4:11.53 and second in the consolation finals. Pye’s other individual event, the 4OO-metre individual medley, would have seen him qualify for the finals had he not been disqualified for an allegedly improper backstroke turn. Also qualifying for the CIAU championships, for the second year in succession, was Dave Adams. His time of 0:24.39 in the 50-metre freestyle gave him an eighth-place finish while a bo_ld swim in a lOO-metre freestyle swim-off relegated him to the consolation finals of that event which he promptly won in a time of 0:53.52. Continuing his fine form of late was veteran Langis Roy who took second places in the consolation finals of the 200-metres’ freestyle and butterfly with times of 2:00.26 and 2:18.25 respectively. In th9 latter event, he finished immediately behind team-mate Jeff Slater who, like Roy, showed ardent resolution in the races he swam. L

In addition io his victory in the consolation event, butterfly Slater raced to an eight h-place in the 400-metre individual medley, finishing in a time of 4:53.46, and he &so added a second place to his credit in the cdnsolation final of the loo-metre butterfly. Ross McIntosh and Mike Cash approached their events with fire and brimestone; both raced doggedly in the 200 and LOOmetres’ freestyle and, along with Warrior Dave March, scored valuable points for the team with their 16th and 15th place finishes in the 1500-metie freestyle. In addition to his 12th place in the aforementioned race, Dave March also led the team’s backstrokers to fifth, sixth and seventh places in the 200-metre backstroke consolation final; his time of 2:22.73 narrowly beat that of team-mate Jeff Budau while Bill Elgie kept in close pursuit to finish immediately behind these two. Budau also won the consolation final of the 400-metre individual medley wifh a time of 4:55.18., while his elder brother Jon swam to respectable times in the loo-metres’ butterfly and freestyle. Others to score points in the 20-17-16-15-14-13-12-11 points distribution system for finals and the 9-7-6-5-4-3-2-l points system for consolation finals were Steve Head, Joe Milla, and Eric Fergin. Head earned an eighth place in the consolation final of the lOOmetre breaststroke; Milla pro-

pelled himself to the consolation finals of the 4OO-metre individual medley and the 200-metres’ butterfly and individual medley -- the latter event was won by Latirentian student Alex Baumann in a world best time,--and Fergin took sixth place-in the 400-metre individual medley and eighth place in the 2OO-metre butterfly consolation final races. Displaying verve and enthusiasm on their way to setting personal best times during their swims were butterflyer John Kik, freestylers’ Bruce Damaren and Dan Stratton, Dave Lawson, and breastrokers’ Andy Armstrong and Graham Stringer. The Warrior swimmers turned in vivacious swims in the remaining relay races, all of which counted for double the points of individual events. The 4x100-metre medley relay saw Dave Adams, Greg Pye, Jeff Slater, and Jon Budau place 8th overall while the team of Dave March, Steve’ Head, Eric Fergin, ‘and the indefatigable Bill Elgie came in 12th*position, hine seconds behind. Waterloo’s 4x200-metre freestyle relay ‘A’ Team slipped to fifth place overall in that event despite the furious efforts of Greg Pye, Dave Cash, and Langis Roy, while the ‘B’ Team of Bill Elgie, Mike Cash, Jon Budau, and Dave March barged their way to 12th place. Andther eighth place was the reward for the quartet of Dave Adams, Graham Stringer, Jeff Slater, and Jon Budau in the

katers shine at In an impressive performance by the entire team, none of the Athena figure skaters placed lower than fifth in the OWIAA championships. The first gold medal was notched by Alison Hayes-Sheen and Barb Brubacher in the junior similar dance eve&t. Mqrgo Fraser and Karen ‘Lukbsik skated to a second-place finish the seni& similar dance. Fraser began the second day with a first place finish in the interpretive event. This was followed with another victory by Hayes-Sheen and Carol Rankie, continuing their dominance in junior similar pairs. Skating their best performance of the season, Brubacher and daSilva turned in a third place finish in intermediate similar pairs, while Stephanie Muller and Lukasik combined their talents to cap second in senior similar pairs. Heading into the final event, the Athenas were sitting in>third place, with all top three very close in point totals. The team gave’it their all to place second in the precision event. Members in this category included da Silva, Brucbacher, Walton, Lukasik, Rankie, Hayes-Sheen, Caywood, Brown, Muller, Laurie Frey, Janice MacDougal and Carol Show. This gave the Athenas a total of 121 points to claim the bronze medal, to finish on the heels of first place Queen’s, and 2 points back of second place Western. . Congratulations to coaches Susan Chell and Margo Fraser for their time and work this season. The team would like to wish good luck to graduating skaters, and extend an invitation to any new skaters for next season’s team.

4x5&metre medley relay - they finished a mere three seconds from third place - and 12th place was, once again, the placing for the ‘B’ Team consisting of Jeff Budau, Steve Head, Eric Fergin, and Joe Milla. The final relay of the meet brought about meteoric swims from Waterloo’s ‘A’ Team as they combined with the ‘B’ Team to score 42 points and thus jump up one notch in the overall standings. Dave Heinbuch, coach of the Warrior swimmers, was euphoric after the meet. “I couldn’t be happier with the way things have gone,” he proclaimed. “This team has really made other schools stand up and take notice of who we are and of what we can do.” Heinbuch will be taking CIAU qualifiers’ Dave Cash, Greg Pye, and Dave Adams to Dalhousie next week for the national championship event, while the inimitable Bill Elgie has been added to the Halifax-bound squad in order to have Waterloo represented in the men’s relay events. Also accompanying the men will be Waterloo Athena swimmers’ and CIAU qualifiers’ Kate Moore and Allison Loucas. The OUAA championships were won by the University of Toronto with 929 points. McMast& was second with 553 points followed by Western at 446, Waterloo at 313, and Brock at 310 points. Fifteen universities were entered in the two days of competition.

throw often nresents an insurmountable feit of nature for this giant. But blink for a split second, and you’d swear he should be w,earing a silken cape. When the switch hits “on”, *Moore comes out of hibernation

If you see Waterloo’s Paul Boyce and Brock’s Kevin Moore hanging around a basketball court, you’ll probably guess that they’re the same type of ball player. And to a point, you’d be right - Boyce (6’6”) and Moore (6’7”) are the best at their position in the OUAA West -power forward. But despite -their common occupation and identical builds, when Boyce dons Warrior black and gold, and Moore his Badger red and blue, the difference in style becomes obvious. In fact, sometimes they are about as similar in nature as Fozzie Bear and G.- Gordon Liddy.

to become a standout on the hardwood. Suddenly you watch him nailing jumpers, ripping down rebounds, drawing barrages of fouls and coming out of oblivion to make acrobatic tipNo. better example of ins. Moore’s nature exists than a game last month at the PAC. For the first half, I thought Moore had missed the bus trip from St. Catharines. Come half number two, he decided that he would become a human hi-lite film, dominating the court in a Badger win.

I’m convinced that Moore has some sort of on/off switch somewhere on his carcass. One minute, his motion through the key can best be termed an amble or a shuffle. During these times, his most notable action on the floor is ii frustrated shove to someone standing

in his way.

Even

What’s most obvious about Moore is the air of cockiness about him. He too knows full well that given no fair warning h.e can come screaming down the paint, leaving even the best zone defense in shamqes. Boyce is just the opposite of

a free

Moore. Regardless of the conditions, number 33 can be found wherever the ball is. Although he may not be as flashy as his Brock rival, he tends to be more noticeable on the court on a consistent basis. Last week against Mac, he experienced his first off night from the field, yet he didn’t disintegrate. In fact, it was all he could do to take as many shots as possible to regain his touch. And don’t forget that night in Windsor,’ when dragging around a bum leg, Boyce still hooped 32 points. He makes certain that all 6’6” can be seen on the floor at all times. Their dominance of OUAA West gyms is well chronicled in the .weekly scoring stats. Last week, Moore boasted the crown of King of The Glass as league leader in rebounds. Meanwhile, Boyce led all scoring snipers and was third in the challenge for Moore’s throne. In all, both players are quite content playing the type of ball that seems to come natural to them. Besides, who would ask them to change - can you imagine where these clubs would be without them?

B-ball Athenas to face awesome Vees by Glenn Hauer Imprint staff

Laurentian a tough go of it. The Vees are, to put it mildly, awesome!

It was a game that wasn’t importani in terms of playoff position, but it helped the Athena basketball team regain some of the confidence that has been i?cking in the past two weeks. Back on the winning track after defeating Windsor in their last regular season game 59-54, Waterloo’s Athenas must now face the powerful^Laurentian Vees in the first round of the OWIAA championships this weekend in Guelph. It would fulfill a dream of mine if they beat the number one ranked Vees, however, our players certainly have nothing to lose if they are going to give

Against Windsor, it looked as if the game would be a topsyturvy battle for the first 18 minutes of the opening half. Both Windsor and Waterho traded baskets until Helen Gillies, Corinna Lueg, Lueg again, and Michelle Campbell scored four unanswered baskets to open up a nine point lead with a minute to go. Going into the locker room, the Athenas led with a comfortable 33-25 margin. Lueg and Campbell had outstanding halves of basketball, scoring 11 and 8 points respectively and playing good defense. Gillies came off the bench to provide

some well-needed spark on offense and hustle on D. The Athenas success continued in the second half, as Campbell opened up the half with a barrage of beautiful jumpers to lead Waterloo to a wide 13 point margin. Waterloo kept the pressure on and held on to a 14 point lead throughout the middle 10 minutes of the period. Cindy Poag, Gillies, Lueg, and Campbell took up all of the scoring responsibilities. However, with five minutes to go, the Athenas’ guns stopped smoking. It was starting to get a little tense near the end as Windsor was picking away at Waterloo’s defense enabling them to creep within 5 at the end of the game. The only scoring by the Athenas

was on two free throws by Sheila Windle after a technical foul taken by Windsor’s coach. (The officiating in women’s basketball is absolutely atrocious and it certainly wasn’t any different in this game.) Waterloo had plenty of opportunities to pad their lead, missing the front end of three one-and-one free throw situations. Fortunately for Waterloo, Windsor’s attack was too little too late as the Athenas held on to a 59-54 victory. Michelle Campbell had an outstanding game with 18 points, playing the way she did last fall in the pre-season tournaments. Corinna Lueg played a strong game as well, scoring 15 points and having fun out there! Poag

and Gillies both chipped in 8 points apiece. The OWIAA championships this weekend in Guelph features two of the top,five teams in Canada. Laurentian, and number four-ranked Toronto are expected to meet in the final. The quarter-finals start on Friday at 2 p.m. with Waterloo tak’ing on Laurentian, with Ryerson and Laurier at 4, McMaster vs. Ottawa at 6, and finally Brock facing Toronto at 8 p.m. If our Athenas upset Laurentian, they will need career games out of -Lueg, Poag, Windle, Campbell, Karen McCulla, and Brenda Bowering along with strong bench support <from Helen Gillies and Jane Willett. Can they do it? .We’ll see on Friday.

UW track loves N.Y. after Cornell meet Last weekend UW’s track team was out in full force to compete. at the Cornell Invitational Track Meet, held in Ithaca, New York. This meet saw possibly the largest contingent amassed from Waterloo at an indoor meet. A new mtirk was set in the 55metre dash. John Denny ran a speedy 6.61 seconds, taking first piace -and establishing a- new Waterloo record. Paul Meikle ran well, placing fourth, with a time of 6.76 seconds and Andre Garrison ran 6.8, placing fourth in his heat. The team saw many personal bests at this meet. Derek King ran a time of 1:08.31 in the 5001 metres, pla’ding third, Ulrike Zugelder placed second in the 1500-metre event j- clocking in at 4:41.3, a few tenths short,of the CIAU standard, and Nii=k Cipp had a terrific day, placing first in the 3O@O+&res; inA a time -of:

I : T. _. -

8:32.8. In the 800-metre event, Steve Scott placed fourth, clocking a gutsy 2:00.8, Dale Lapham clocked in at 2:04.0, finishing seventh. In the 1000-metre event, Leanne Pinder came in second, with a time of 3:01.7.

Kevin Shields and Kevin Shoom, both ran very well, placing second and seventh, with clockings of 8:45.5 and 9:15.0, respectively, in the 3000-metre event. In the grueling 5K-event, Mike Affleck pers&ered to the end, placing sixth, with a time of 16:20.0. ’

The Warriors’ 1500-metre contingent showed that a team that travels together, places together. Shamir Jamal, Tom Sawyer, Alf Faulds and Tim Colins, placed fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh, with times of 4:03.43, 4:04.8, 4:06.45, and 4:07.00, respectively, John Gonos placed tenth, in a time of 4:20.00. For the Athenas, Ulrik-e 3ugelder placed second and Kilmeny Beimler placed fourth with a time of 5:15’.4,. The tirduous 3000-metre saw :Jill ..Fr&-ncis place third, clocking in at 10:35.3 (not one of Jill’s better.-times). I

A new entry for Waterloo was twb 4x800-metre relay’ teams. The A-team, consisting of Steve Scott, Derek King, Tom Sawyer, and Shamir Jamal, placed third, in a time of 8:07.41;- the B-team, comprising of Alf Faulds, Tim Collins, Dale Lapham and Mike Affleck, finished fifth, in a time of 8:28.9. Both teams ran well. The team had a terrific time in Cornell, both on and off the track. Today, the team is in Toronto competing at the Last Chance Qualifiers at the Univer.sity,_Qf Toronto track complex.
