The Enlightened by Rob Day
One, Totally physicists, take note. The most unintentionally hilarious aspect of this entire fiasco are the actual Dialogues in which Ramtha dispenses his age-old wisdom one-on-one to a selected member of the audience [always referred to as MASTER), as on p. 38: ‘MASTER: I would like to know why I don’t have very strong desires? Whether I have something or don’t doesn’t really matter to ‘me. RAMTHA: Because it doesn’t really matter to

Rosy jo.b picture for
CO-OPS
Despite the slump in stock markets around the world, the job picture for University of Waterloo co-operative students (who alternate between campus studies and jobs in the private or public sector, every four months) has never been rosier. As of January 4, virtually all of the 3,684 co-op students going out on jobs had been placed: in fact there were close to 1,000 more jobs available than students. Jim Wilson, director of UW’s co-operative education and career services department (the department that provides liaison between students and work term employers), terms the demand for UW co-op students “probably the greatest it’s been in the historv of the university. “We”had more than 1,650 em-
-/
ployers come to the campus throughout the fall looking for students,” he says. “They condu%ted 14,235 student interviews, using over QO rooms every day for four weeks, and they conducted 179 sets of telephone interviews, involving employers who could not come to the campus; in all, we had the most successful placement in our history.” UW offers co-op programs in faculty and virtually every every academic department on campus. Currently, employer representatives are recruiting on campus, for permanent jobs for students who will be graduating this spring. According to Wilson, Waterloo has the largest number of employers visiting the campus af any Canadian university.

I regret any problems this switch may have caused our current students, but it will result in a better sequence for students in future years.

Also included in the package is Kitchener-Waterloo’s internationally renowned premiere (and only) dreadlocked, sensualbass-playing reggae band, Messenjah, guaranteed to draw an excitingly varied crowd at Fed ‘Hall.

Eric Choi. of the International Students’ Board says “It’s a chance for international students to to get together and give other students an idea of their culture. Since the l&t caravan, the undergraduate enrollment of international’ students has dropped dramatically. Last term there were only 231 un campus.” Promotinga cross cultural understanding is the main objective of the Caravan, says Choi.

Election apathy L..
. _ *1 l
If history repeats itself, the students off this university will barely waste a brain cell of thought or-show an ounce of interest in the upcoming Students’ Council electi,on. At Waterloo, where the tradition of apathy is more than two decades strong, only one quarter of 14,000 undergraduates will make it to the polls for the February g-10 Federation of Students’ election. Last year approximately 25 per cent of the undergraduates voted; however, an impressive 50 per cent of the engineers made it out to mark their ballots. Extra-curricular interests have been choked by the co-op program. The costs of taking students off-campus every four months on a work term materializes into the numbing of many student concerns. Students should not be crusaders necessarily, but many ’ Waterloo students’have the idea that university involvement is about climbing the staircase of the Federation office at the’ beginning of each term to ask for the seventeen dollar refund. We are the reason why this university is here. Are wenot? Students are represented on the boards that run this institution by the Federation of Students. We hav_e the-mechanisms in place to ensure and promote the quality of student life on campus; yet, only 3,500 people out of a possible 14,000 usually _ decide who is good enough to tell UW President Doug Wright what we want and don’t want. Do you want rising co-op fees: a better student life building; some new athletic and Campus Ret facilities? These are only some of the issues which might interest the people who attend _ this university, but who so often remain silent and intituated with Want Ads, course calendars, and intent to graduate ?-forms.

On January 4 the free trade agreement was signed. No longer is it expedient to argue and bicker over its merits. It is time to w&k out the effects of the deal and tb adapt to a changin environment. Cana cfa has traditionally been a trading nation. Historitally, our economy has been based primarily on the fur trade. This continues’ today with exports centered around mineral, forestry and agricultural products. This dependence on resource trade creates its problems. Canada is often forced to, be a price taker in world markets. With competition from third world countries, Canada may be required to lower the standard of living in order to compete. .The free trade deal will lower Canadian tariffs on American goods and as a result there could be a move in Cgnada away from manufacturing; a situation which could Kurt Ontario most of all. Canadian manufacturing will have to improve its productivity in order to survive. Firms that are unable’to compete with their American coun-terparts will go out of business; those that can will prosper. The difficulties will increase but so will the rewards. A North American trade bloc will still be faced with competition from Japan and West Germany. In order to compete we will have to concentrate more on productivity and engineering than on marketing. We have traditionally been salesmen of goods: Canada in resources, and the U.S. in industrial goods. But in these days of rapid communication, it is no’longer possible to sell an inferior product, too much information is known about the alternatives, In order to compete under the free trade deal we will hatie to create new emphasis on manufacturing. It may be difficult, but we are being forced, Despite our apprehensions we niust adapt. Derik

While the judge is unlikely to resign, his sentence must be overturned.

The already poor reputation of Ctinada’s court systems ’ took another beating this’ week thanks to a proverbial slap-on-the-wrist sentence dealt to-an Ontar.io man “convicted of sexual assault. Bruce Glassford, 22, was given 90 days in jail, to be served on weekends, after he was found guilty of beating and attempting to rape a 27year-old women. In sentencing Glassford, Sault Ste. Marie District Court judge LA. Vannini said Glassford seemed remorseful and had probably learned his lesson. The judge,also took into consideration testimony Glassford had developed an ulcer due to the incident, Vannini justified the light sentence, saying the victim suffered no lasting emotional or physical harm. Also noted was t-he fact that both Glassford and the victim had been at a party where large amounts of alcohol and drugs were reported to have been used. Under the sentence, Glassford is to be jailed Friday nights and released Monday mornings. His Friday night lock-up time was moved back two hoursafter defence counsel noted an earlier report time would conflict with Glassford’s plans to coach soccer, an activity the defence claimed would help in Gla8sford’s rehabilitation.

Women’s groups have long maintained our court systems treat rape victims as if the victims themselves were on trial; judgment’s such as Vannini’s merely reinforce this theory. As society becomes increasingly alarmed with the rise in criminal activity and the apparent impotence of the criminal justice System, the judiciary must move to clean up it’s public image - beginning with such blatant incongruities at the Soo case, Steve

Who’s got spirit? To the editor, Spirit, a word that for too long was not synonymous with the University of Waterloo. The time spent here for all too many was the drudgery of pushing through to obtain a degree, and then looking for a iob. Life need not be this wav. The student and alumni populaiion of Waterloo has just as much potential for soirit as students and *alumni aniwhere else, Such enthusiasm has been shown in the past - basketball games, WATpubs - but to a great extent has been lost els’ewhere due to a lack of a medium to funnel this potential through.
Three years ago, in co-operation with the Alumni Affairs office, the Student Alumni Association was formed. Its mandate is to link past, present, and future students through the promotion and raising of spirit within our university+ Over the past three years, the SAA has been an integral part in initiating several major events to promote the university among the alumni community. These included a reunion weekend every summer to reunite old classmates and Homecoming Weekend, which is now ope of the biggest events of the year on campus. This term, Alumni Lane, a commemorative path of trees, will be founded. Each tree will represent a year’s graduating class, The first
tree will be dedicated this year. The SAA also takes care of Pounce de Lion, our university mascot, and sells Pouncewear, the only official sweatwear of our alumni lion. To do all this, the SAA needs people, people who are just as excited about the spirit at this university as we are. The alumni association is always looking for energetic people who care about how the university is enjoyed by students and alumni. If you want to become a part of something that won’t end when you leave here, but will keep your ties to your alma mater closely knit and exciting, then the SAA is for you. *

Ruins credibilhty To the editor, In her January 8 column, The Vegetarian World, Dawn Miles tries to make a case for vegetarianism with the Bible. Like most people who turn to the book merely to prove a particular viewpoint, she succeeds only in proving her own lack of understanding. The word “meat” was used to refer to food in general, but was also recognized as being food itself! One can find a great deal more evidence for the fact that the earliest Christians had no qualms about eating meat without having to resort to statements like: “the references to fish are believed to be symbolic”. Believed by whom?
Vegetarians, of course. Certainly not by biblical scholars. Interesting to see Dawn Miles interpreting the word “fish” symbolically, but taking Isaiah’s vision literally. Such glaring contradictions usually arise when pebple do not know what they are talking about. The concept of vegetatianism does, to be fair, appear in the Bible. It is an indication of weak faith. Paul points out in Romans 14:l-4 “If a person’s faith is not strong enough, welcome him all the same without starting an argument. People range from those who believe they may eat any sort of meat to those whose faith is sb wecrk they &are not eat anything but vegeta bles” (Jerusalem Bible] As

Slam dancing solution? To the editor, It seems that somewhere along the line I have been misled. I have always been under the impression that the St&lent services, such as Federation Hall, exist to service the needs *and desires of the students. However, it seems that a perverse situation exists at Federation Hall. Manny Patterson, the BEnt entertainment programmer, has told me that this year the Forgotten Rebels will not be allowed to play at Fed Hall because the management of the pub doesn’t like the crowd the band attracts. I, being the naive person that I am, was under the impression that the people who have attended our shows for the past two years have been University of Waterloo students. Obviously, they are second class students because they don’t like to dance in the socially-approved manner that is dictated by
the staff at Fed Hall. It seems somewhat inappropriate that the 850 people who paid to see us last year should be denied the right to see us this year because the staff at Fed Hall took it upon themselves to dictate a dance policy that was not suita,ble for a band like the Forgotten Rebels, We are not a cheek to cheek band; we obnoxious main3re a s&tty, stream act. We do not purport to change society through our stage show, hut mereIy to reflie’ct it. Life is not all cheek to cheek but can be a little rough at times, where the only way to reflect a mood is to bounce carelessly against your fellow man. 1 We are not in favour of people being tossed out for slam dancing, We find it causes a lot of unnecessary work for the door staff as well as creating hostilities among the staff and patrons which invarialbllv leads to more problems than
.
the original slamming. One solution is simple: rope off an area for slam dancing and let them go crazy. There are orther solutions to this problem. We believe that “just say no” may well be ati appfopriate response to drug use but feel it is an inappropriate response when applied to slam dancing and to our chances at playing Fed Hall. We have made money for the students at the University of Waterloo throli h the profits at the 7 door at our ast two shows. We would appreciate it if the students at the university responded in an affirmative manner. Lastly, to all those naysayers, relax, experience life for what it is - a little rough but a whole lot of fun.

Sunday shopping:

A day’of criticism To the editor, John Hymer’s Sunday shopping editorial. (Imprint, Jan. 8) invalidates itself in its first sentence: “Listen, for I am about to force my morality on you.” Why did he bother to continue? Obviously, because he believes that people should be controlled for their own benefit of course and that he knows what’s best for everyone. Why else would he be interested in enforcing arbitrary, useless laws that dictate when people can buy and sell? Why else would he speak 0u.t “The Law” as if
it was handed down by God, and not drawn up by fallible people? His kind of blind obedience to whatever legislation is loaded on us by our so-called “ciG1 servants” will evenZially bring about a society in which everything not forbidden is compulsoiy. -, As for “protecting people”, I, for one, do not need to be “protected from buying or selling on Sundays by being fined or jaiIed when I choose to do so.

I received a letter before Christmas from a young woman who 1 assume is & student at this university, It was really a very nice letter, and I was glad to see that someone from the straight sector [she indicated that she was straight) was responding so positively to what I was writing. One of the things that she mentioned in the letter was promiscuity. It is an interesting topic. My correspondent inferred that gay men “can indulge in sex more often and with a wider variety of parjners because they don’t have to worry about pregnancy.” It suppose that perhaps there is some truth in thtit, but I do not believe that tbt is the major reason. So I will try to give you some insight (or at least my opinions) on the matter. Straight society has, in our culture, had a rather conservative set of rules regarding sexual relations between people. Fidelity+ chastity before marriage, and such other mores as these, have been, at least publicly, held highly as moral foundations of sexual conduct. Even if the rules were broken, these events were rarely discussed outside of the locker room - “living the gay life”, as it were, was not for public demonstration in straight society. This still holds true today. Even if a straight man or woman is leading a promiscuous life style; it is seldom discussed, and then usually only with close friends. When gay men (1 cannot speak with any authority concerning gay women, so I will not try) started to “come qut of the closet”, and live their lives openly as gay men, many (perhaps most] rejected standards of conduct set by the straight world. To do so was and is a political statement saying “you are no longer going to control -tiy life and determine what is right for me”. This was especially true in the case of sexual conduct. It was “politically correct” tobe promiscuous. Persons who were seeking monogamous relationships were Iookeddown upon as conforming or allowing themselves to continue to be oppressed by straight society. Many gay men have experienced a great deal of hurt from others in society because of their sexuality. We were outcasts throughno fault or action of oqr own. Part of the lure of having many sexual partners is that in ti way it reaffirms the individual’s sense of self worth - it helps to relieve‘some of the pain by confirming that people (that is, one’s sexual partners) accept and desire, that individual. I know I have experienced some of these feelings myself, and I know of friends that have too. I think that most, if not all; gay, men p through a “kid in the candy store” phase, experimenting with their sexual orientation. This is not just experimentation, but also discovery, Gay sex is not something that is discussed in high school health classes. Everykhing that I learned was gleaned from magazines (a dubious source at best], “The Joy,of Gay Sex”-that I came across one day in Coles, and from my sexual experiences. _a Being fair to all, though, not all gay men are promiscuous. I have got over my phase of experimentation, and am probably much less promiscuous than many of my straight peers. I have friends two gay men - that have been together in a monogamous relationship for more than six years, atid they know many others in that class too. I want to be in such a relationship. There are some ideas for you to ponder. I often wonder just how much more promiscuous gay men are compired to straight people. Perhaps they are not more promiscuous as just a little more vocal about it., I am not trying to condemn or condone promiscuity. I do not feel it is right for me, But I am nbt about to tell others ~‘OW to live their lives. Would it not be nice if we could *all take that
attitude?
White suckers part’of national study

Everyone suspects pollution has a negative effect on fish stocks in Canadian lakes and rivers, but&hen it comes to. understanding how much pollution is permissible much remains to be learned. Biologists at the University of Waterloo are involved in a var.iety of stlidies into such qtiestions, both in their labs and in the field. One researcher is Kelly tiunkittrick, PhD student working with Dr. George Dixon, an associate professor in the biology department. Munkittrick has been involved in field studies on fish in Northern Ontario lakes, funded at more than $120,000 over the past three years, largely by Ontario’s Ministry of the Environment. “Motif water uality regulations are set by t1 e government on the basis of studies cqrried out in laboratories,” says Munkittrick. “Not much work is actually done in the field ‘- in the lakes and rivers of Ontario. It’s expensive to db field studies and furthermore, the problems are very complex.” A study of the effect’of pollutants in Lake Ontario, for instance, would h;ave to take into consideration scores if not hundreds of chemicals, any one or any combination of several of which, might have an impact on the fish. Munkittrick’s study focused on the white sucker populations in a chain of lakes neacManitouwedge, lbcated north of Lake Superior; ; approximately midway between Sault Ste. Marie and Thunder Bay; “We lgoked at white suckers because they are a fairly wideranging fish so what we learned ought to prove applicable across Canada,” he says. “We chose this particular location for two reasons: first, the only significant pollutants consist of copper and zinc, resulting from mining operations at Manitouwadge which

began in the late 1950’9; and second, because there were both polluted and completely pollution-free lakes in close proximity, and the lattet could serve as a control . . . against which the former could be measured.” He has spent considerable time there over the past three summers; currently he is putting his findings togeth?r into a report far the ministry. (The research will also form the basis for his PhD thesis.)
the fish in the clean’lakes and further, eggs from contaminated lakes have half the survival rate of eggs from the clean lakes. “Everything points to the fact that females in the contaminated kky
are not (getting ,mough ,” he concludes. so we looked at the food supply. What we found was that in the contaminattid lakes, most of the larger invertebrates -- things such as mayfly larvae; and snails - are missing . . so the fish have a harder time getting What food is available is in the shallower parts of the lakes. Where the water is 15 feet deep or more, there is virtually no food. “Suckers are of course bottbm feeders so what’s on the bottom should be a very good indication as to what food is available to them,” Munkittrick says. He brought back sediment samples from lake bottoms and is currently waiting for UW researchers in other labs on campus to sort through them and determine what life forms exist there, and in what quantities. Munkittrick and -Dixon will not be able’to finish their report until these findings are available. The UW grad student notes that while the copper and zinc contaminants seem to have eliminated a considerable psrt of the food supply of the white suckers, they don’t s’eem to have poisoned the fish themselves. They have measured the -levels of copper and zinc in the kidney and liver tissues of suckers, “Of course, the further up the food chain you go, the longer it takes for the effects of contaminants to appear,” Munkittrick I cautions. “The mines at Manitouwadge seem to have had quite en effect on the lower life forms years, but this may , in previous l
What the ministry hopes will come from this research is an economic way to evaluate the effects of pollution, in the future. This should soon be possible’that is, biologists should be able to determine the effects of pollution on fish stocks, using very small bamples and basing their estimates on the UW work., Munkittrick says he concentrated on white suckers instead of the game fish [notably pike and walleye, which abound in the region) because he didn’t want to interfere with the sports fishing industry in the area. “Actually, the people there didn’t seem to mind; they even suggested we look at pike and walleye,” he recalls, He looked at three aspects of the sucker population: larval (1) survival, (2 growth, and (3) ‘?&it we 1ound was that female fish in the contaminated lakes were not growing once they had reached sexual maturity,‘! Munkittrick reports+ “whereas tthose in the nearby, ‘clean’ lakes continued to do so. “Immature fish in both types of lakes were identical; it was, when they reached sexual maturity that the females in the contaminated lakes stopped. What this indictites to us i&that they are noI getting enough food to both grow and reproduce.. . so they convert their energy into reproduction only.” AS well, he found, the fish in the contaminated lakes produce only about half as many eggs as
have taken years to show up in sucker or sport fish populations, if indeed it ever shows up at all.” One of his discoveries - and this was the first time this phenomenon seems ever to have been observed - is that the egg sac, attached to the young fish at the time it emerges from the egg, actually provides protection against the zinc and copper: in other words, pqllution tolerance is actually transferred from mot her to off spring. The Manitouwadge research is just one’ of a number of projects with which Dr. Dixon is involved. Other students are studying the impact of thiocyanates (from gold mining operations) on fish, seeking a better understanding as to the chemical’s toxicity, how persistent it is in lakes, and its impact on trout populations. In lab experiments on campus, thiocyanates are -added to the water in tanks in which young trout are growing. The fish are measured at regular intervals to determine the effect of the chemical on their growth rates. “It’s a matter of narrowing down the range so we know the concentrations at which there will be no effect and those at which thiocyanates are harmful,” Munkittrick says. The problem is complicated by the fact that the effect of these salts on fish varies according to water temperature,
acidity, how well fed the fish are, and other factors. Other UW studies involve “pulses” of exposure - that is, instead of maintaining a constant percentage of thiocyanates in the water, the amount is varied (as often happens in actual lakes and rivers). Thus fish can be exposed to more than a “safe” amount on one occasion, and to less on another. Still other UW studies involve investigating the effects on fish of methoxychlor (used in streams to,control black fly populations). How much can be applied before there is a risk of harming fish populations? And what might it do to the food supply of trout living in northern streams? “We are involved with a variety of government agencies looking into a variety of problems,” says Dixon. “The project Kelly has been working on seems to have provided some helpful new information, though we may, not yet understand all the mechanisms involved. Still, we hope it provides an effective screening tool so experts can quickly and cheaply determine when water quality can be said to be harmful to fish. It can also serve as a tool for government, helping to focus its research money into appropriate problem areas .‘*

A look at lJL&
past
Female overexnoSurt& In the sixties it was not uncommon to see womeri exploited in advertisements that appeared in the student newspaper. However, it was uncommon to see females in the news section unless it was a very .pretty women at some slightly news worthy post. There were many beauty queen contests for almost every
occasion you could think of. Frosh Queens, Snow Queens, WinterLand Queens, M,ay Queens are’among the list. The beauty pageant contestants and the winner were always photographed and .published. I By today’s standards this is 1 exploitation, but because no women complained at the time, it
was really not exploitation. On the contrary, these females were flattered. It is still very disturbing to believe that people swallowed this stuff up and that it was actually approved and allowed to cbntinue. In the early sixties, the Coryphaeus, a predecessor of the Imprint showed clean-cut men with short hair in the photographs. As the sixties progfessed and the hair length grew longer; more pictures of women were included in the paper. Such photo’s were of beauty contest participants or a periodic campus shot of a student walking around in a skimpy bikitii, The accompanying photographs are taken from the late-sixties Chevron; the official student paper until Imprint came upon the scene in 1978.
,The earliest photo shown is of the frosh queens. This shot is typical of the female coverage in the paper at that time. The aca-, demic and sport coverage was of’ men only. The ratio of -men attending the university was much gre;tter but that does not explain why there was almost never a female article or photo other than those mentioned. The rear view shot of a women holding up a yearbook in which the accompanying description reads/That’s right - we promised you a topless salesgirl and here she is - Maude Fric kert, better known to male members of the Staff as Candy. She‘ reminds you that you have until Feb. 10 to buy your compendium ‘67 yearbook.” September committee.
1967 recruiting They must have
for the homec&%i@ wanted strictly males.
The Homecoming ‘67 ad displaying a women in a sheet with a very provocative look on her ,face is used to attract attention somewhat like the headline “sex” or “do not read this” is used today. The smallest line on the ad reads, “P.S. This is half the homecomin’g committee.” The lovers in bed scene used to recruit hockey fans. The illegible print states, “We’ll be waiting to speed you to London to see our own Warrors play Western on Friday, December 8. And if you think the bus trip looks exciting, just wait ‘till you see the game! A round- trip ticket including game ticket is only $3.10.“. These naked bodies are intertwined in a Village One bed. This ad seems more appropriate for a house of ill-repute rather than a hockey road trip. Most shocking of all is the ad for the UW Used book store. Manpower may be wanted however, pornography definitely is not. Circle K- club arranges parttime work for students so it is not surprising that the womenin the picture has a circled K on her rear end. It is questionable as to what exactly a-naked women has to-do with obtaining a (legal) -part-time job or buying used books.

Bill ttireMto,freedom This article began following publication of Tom York’s “Let’s TaIk About.. . plhich appeare‘d in emCensorship”, print in late November 1987. This piece is dedicated to his commitment to the rights and freedoms m of all of us. by Lyn McGinnis “PRAISE TH’ LORD AND PASS TH MATCHES!” So read the caption of a recint American editorial cartoon. The statement is being made by a judge gleefully pouring gasoline over a pile of books. Behind him stands Pat Robertson, television evangelist and would-be US. president, with a match box “Religious Right”. I thought the image timely to my Canadian eyes given the second reading of Bill C-54, an act to define pornography and determined to save us from it. At the outset I want to. make it clear that I have no interest in defending forms of entertainment that are violent and victimize. To ban material that celebrates torture is perhaps one thing, to ban what celebrates giving pleasure is something else. Considering the tremendous problems our society and world have, -why an article on pornography, why indeed a bill on it? My reasons for writing stem from my deep concerns over the repercussions arising from attempts at censorship. The bill is concerned with exploitaI tion of minors as well as depictioni of sexual violence. It also deals with socalled “degrading acts”;- this indicates the prudishness of its authors. A former prime minister said: “Government has no plac& in the bedrooins of the nation.” The full wisdom of this statement is now clear - obviously they haven’t a clue what goes on in them. As with all previous attempts in this area, the lack of consensus as to what constitutes pornography reveals itself here. Part six of section 138a makes clear that the representation of any sexual activity is seen as equally offensive as representations of exploitation and

pain. The -bill defines *‘erotica” as simply static depictions of human anatomy in.scxual context. It defines pornography a& the above anatomy in sexual motion with others-. It has nc) problem with “ero5 2, it wishes to censor all poinography. Various definitions of these terms exist, but I shall refer to pornography here. according to the government’s all-inclusive definition. Section 138b adds further insult, stating: “any matter or commercial communication that incites, promotes, encourages, or advocates any conduct referred to. . .” above, is now to be considered pornography as well. How many books are going to be pulled from the library shelves in enforcing such a law? Only the absurd defense of I “artistic merit” can save any publication otherwise condemned as “pornogrgphic” from being “forfeited to I-I& Majesty” Why absurd? The assumption is made that pornography is habmful, that it will have a negative i’nfluence on the morals of those exposed to it. Yet we ate told the same materi& if deemed to have “artistic merit” will not be pornography, and therefore not illegal. For a sexually explicit image to have “artistic merit”, one would assume it was very well done. Perhaps the government simply wishes to upgrade the market, making only sexually explicit material that is very well done available to us. If this is the case, I wish someone had explained it to us - obviously it can’t be for moral reasons. Surely what’s very well done is going to be more effective and have a iy,aeter impact than what is poorly
Section 164 of the bill also caught my: eye: “Everyone who’ makes ‘use of the mails for transmifting or delivering any pornography dr any hate material . . .” Not only is the government editing what , you may receive in your own home, but even more incredible is the linking of these two types of material. Bill C-54 began $s a response to a situation the public wlshed altered, but as the all-inclusive nature of the bill be-

came known, criticism from every side mounted. A sampling of some of those opposed includes the following: - Murray Shepherd, University Librarian for all 1ibrarie.s on campus; - all of Toronto’s public libraries, which protested by remaining closed on December 10, 1987; - The Canadian Civil Liberties Associat ion; A The Defense of Freedom of Expression, an organization formedin Quebec bv concerned individuals from the arts specifically to fight this bill; - Calgary’s Civic Liberties Association; its chairman Kitt Rigg is onrecord saying the Bill is a “real interference wcth Freedom of expression”: - The Writers: Union of Canada; it passed a resolution against the censorship implicit in the bill; . - The justice Ministers of every province in May declared the bill “too sweeping’+ in scope, Not one minister approved of it; - United Church of Canada wrote to the justice minister saying “objectionable” material shouldn’t be measured by explicitness, but by context. The church saw nothing wrong with sexually explicit material in the”context of cdmmitment, mutuality, I free choice, and non-violence.”
tally to “leaders” always ready to prey on those unwilling to think for themselves. Whenever p,eople feel threat ened, they reach for absolutes, which while providing a sense of security, also contribute to a grimmer and more Spartan * existence. When a society’s socio-economic body falters, people long for a sense of certainty and hunt for scapegoats. In the sunny sixties and early seventies, people explored their potential and all their possibilities; it was a liberating, creative time. Now the emphasis- is on survival and conformity. Bowing to press&e from the religious right, ‘one U.S. publisher has begun removing certain words from the dictionary. - The feminist movement has been deeply divided over the issue of pornography. Some claim it encourages violence against women: others see this pqsition as ti waste of time comparable’ to the women’s involvement in the 19th tintury campaign against the use of alcohol. Those wishing to censor pornography presume that this material is . solely for the single.male market, I haven’t seen a feminist perspective of a couple’s use of pornography in private, in the context of a relationship. Seeing women as the focus an’d victim of pornography, these writers abrogate the voice
Considering the opposition, the government’s motivation to ban all forms of sexually explicit material must have roots deeper than readily apparent, Why is this being attempted? Like any other obtrusive measure, censorship is explained as a beneficial force to protect the public. The implication is that the public is unable to protect itself, “Pornography” is thought to drive the weakwilled to do what ‘their social programming would otherwise keep them from. As well, censorship is said to be useful for ‘the protection of victims of crimes partly or wholly inspired by pornography. * There is no doubt some- people are given to rape and murder, and steps must be taken to minimize their harmful presence, But if we’re going to be honest in our concern about possible influences on violent behavior, banning all forms of violent entertainment should be pursued with no less vigor.’ Rape has been found to be motivated by a desire, to overpower and dominate in an aggressive fashion (images the bill initially set out to control] rather than by simple sexual gratifi!ation (images the government now’ considers equglly repellent). It’s a statement of many frustrations, partly generated by a false view of manhood perpetuated in our culture. What truly are the .forces behind this . bill? They are both obvious and subtle. The obvious ones are characterized by the religious right and a section of the feminist movement. The religious right’s objection to sexually explicit materials its “immorality”; the feminist objection to-the same ‘material is its tendency toward violence and oppressive symbolism. * The religious right’s rise froh the obscurity to which it belongs bespeaks the insecurity of a culture not mature enough to handle the ambiguities of the 20th century. The West is having,a crisis of confidence; the certainty that all we do and all we are is right and admirable is gone, In its wake has cbme a challenge some are unable to grasp. Jerry Falweli offers a way out of this chalf lenge: “Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions.” This is a lie. It is not Christians, but the fearfully timid who willingly submit themselves to-
of womankind just as the religious right abrogates the voice of the supposed “moral” mqjority. Many X-rated films today are being written, produced and directed by women. These women bee their role PS a positive one; their films celebrate sexuality and are intended for mixed audiences. Why don’t those feminists who feel misrepresented by pornography give positive support and input to the industry rather than calling for its complete suppression. Much feminist discussion has taken place over pornography being symptomatic of men’s domination and colonization of women throughout history. Men looking at images of women have been compared to .people looking at animals in the zoo: the observed creatures are defined by the powerful and distant observers, What then are we to make of the now well-established tradition of “Chippendales” and other establishments where male dancers and strippers perform to enthusiastic, female audiences? Some may call such women “gender traitors” and accuse them Qf aping men’s idea of sexual entertaitiment. I call ihem human. The separation of humanity into gender creatures has produced much suffering and waste: why do some femin@ts not discredit and abolish this kind of thinking? Their superficial concurrence with antiquated ‘ideas of men and women being- profoundly different is unfortunate. Given similar scope and reducing specific gender conditioning, humans, are far more alike than not. It niakes me angry to have to criticize a movement I’ve often admired. When I hear scime, of the reactionary rhetoric some f&iinist writers use against all who oppose them, they sound no different to me than the religious right. Whenever I’hear of a group invalidating criticism’of its world view based on the critic being an unenlightened puppet of the forces they oppose, I become uncomfortable. This speaks of an’intellectual insecurity in d-ealing with irritating and unsettling realities that don’t fit, such as the fact that some women actually enjo pornography. This right wing of the Peminist movement has compromCohinued

instead of depending on repressive laws. They can use common sense in storing explicit materials thejt the&selves use out of children‘s reach. When we have freedom of speech, we can speak out against what we object to. When censorship takes the place of individual responsibility, no matter what a few may feel has been gained, we have all lost far more, This bill began as an exception, claiming such measures were necessary to address an urgentneed. The problem with this exception is it has quickly expanded far beyond its original principal. After a bill outlawing pornography, what &ill be next? The religious right in the U.S. gives us a clue. They have a .name for the enemy - secular humanism, What does secular humanism mean? According to one spokesman it includes hedonism, vegetarianism,feminism, and communism. Parts of Sha:

ised the rest by beingseen to be”in bed” with the religious right on this issue, I’m happy to say they do not represent the entire feminist movement. So much for the obvious forces. Whti . about the subtle one’s pushing for this bill’s passage? Who are they? Much fuel for this bill comes from an* emotion - a very strange, even perverse emotion; some individuals .who have nothing to do with pornography . wish to punish those who do. This emotion has been termed moral indignation, the desire to punish those doing sbmething we disapprove of. One of the idea systems falling into ruin is the idea of virtue in abstinence that hard work, frugality, and a general avoidance of “extras” in life is necessary for “higher” goals. Large portions of our society at the lower end of the economic spectrum cling to this ethic to make.their economic and political situation tolerable. Given this, is it any wonder this mentality would resent others indulging in what they feel they’ve had to deny themselves? Suppression of instincts for whatever rea-
tional violence. Violence is our culture’s compensation for being uncomfortable with and ashamed of pleasure. We have grown accustomed to recreational violence - contact sport, media films, etc. What makes graphic violence acceptable and graphic sex unacceptable? How can the cultivation of sexual material by adults be deemed a greater affront to society than the cultivation of violent material by children (ie. how many war toys were under the Christmas tree?) Few will say recreational violence is wonderful, yet most will admit to being entertained by it. Few will publicly say pornography is entertaining to them as individuals and couples, yet most are secretly entertained by it. In all this debate there is one obvious omission. Are there any examples of what a country would be like if pornography were legal? Wouldn’t it be a simple matter to observe a society which has chosen this path instead of neverending debate? Since 1965, Denmark has legalized hard-core pornography with no possibility of repeal. While it is still too early to see the full impact, it is clear that once

son leaves little room for tolerance. Such suppression also occurs where ignorance and fear dominate, especially in that area we have the most fear and trembling with - pleasure. The insecure are most threatened by those who appear to be secure economically and socially. Those wracked with guilt are both envious andaaffronted by tho’se who are free of it!. Such dynamics have produced a hypocritical culture. “Pornography”, as all other manifestations of sexuality supposedly outside the pale of monogamous, heterosexual marriage, lacks respectability. This means such inclinations are never admitted in polite company. The fictional result is the perception that only “certain types” purchase the “trash’* and are . addicted to it. Our culture is two-faced when it comes to pornography, we publicly condemn it while we privately support it. hand in hand with the notion of virtue in abstinence is the phrase “no to be pain, no gain”. We are supposed striving for a greater good, not just to be okay where we are. In such striving we often experience pain; in the context of our growth, such pain is cast in a positive light; pain is associated with many virtues, but what . is pleasure associated with? Our culture has found an answer to this dilemma of both sublimating sexuality and making pain a virtue - recrea-
disagree with what you say, and I will defend to the death to say it” - Voltaire.
kespeare’s works, including Romeo and Juliet, are said to promote secular humanism. Another problem with censorship is that it merely encourages illegal actjvity. Look back to Prohibition, for example. As now, a vocalself-righteous few attempted to impose their lifestyle of temperance from alcohol on the major7 ity. The fact that most people continued to want what was made illegal made Al Capone’s rise to-fame possible and gave a big boost to organized crime. Have we learned nothing from history? Or does the government want to encourage private enterprise? One spin-off from the already restricted market is individuals smuggling in illegal materials, - videos, for example - and allowing other to make copies. Should the bill pass, anyone with a Polaroid camera or a VCR would be able to break the law with imtiunity, as they have been doing until now. A new and greatly expanded home industry may be on the horizon. The “Sex Police” would be constantly frus--
the desire to
pornography ceases to be a forbidden fruit, it has new challenges to overcome. Market forces come into greater play; with so much to choose from at the corner store; only the most interesting is successful. This means the industry must become more creative and diverse in its product to survive. Market saturation of repetitive stereotypical images giv&s way to characters with more personality and humor, even “artistic merit”. In addition, the number of sexual offenses in Denmark has drastically decreased since the legalization of sexually explicit material. This decline has been most dramatic in the area of child mole6tation. There are two avenues before us: one leads to individual responsibility and freedom; the other to state censorship. Voltaire 3s reported to have said “1 violently disagree with what you say, and I will defend to the death your right to say it.” If we truly believe in freedom it must be equally for of expression, what we love and what we hate. I am totally against all forms of censorship except one: self-censorship. Every adult has the right to be his orher own censor. We are responsible for guarding our neighbor’s rights, not their mor’als. Those who don’t wish to have sexually explicit materials in their homes are under no obligation to have them. Parents worried about their children’s exposure to such material can be more involved with their children’s activities

This is an era where the elusive term “context” is all important; for consenting adults in their private space, anything should and does go. In public entertainment, such images all too easily slide into violence and exploitation. I am against adults victimizing children. If ever a bill such as Bill C-54 should have been introduced at all, its limits should have stayed on this destructive fringe. Most would agree that images of torture and simulated (though not always) actions of violence and death appeal to the darkest corners of our being - a corner most would prefer to deny. Such emotions are sublimated and channelled into activities which minimize their dangerous potential.

Confusion of violence and victimization with explicitness highlights our culture’s ambiguity toward pleasure. Banning only drives underground what always has been and always will be. Once there, with greater risks, profits, and taboo attached to it, what has been gained ,but the criminalization of indus~b tries and otherwise law-abiding citizens who will continue to support them? In Denmark, boredom with mediocrity guarantees a certain artistic merit. A free society is a terribly’ complex stage on which to live; the only thing worse is a regulated society. An imperfeet world is the‘only one freely available to us; the censorship of Bill C-54 aims’ for a perfection antagonistic to freedom.

The Universitv of Waterloo’s first faculty me6ber in arts, Dr. J. W, (Bill] Dy&, a professor in the Department of Germanic and Slavic Languages and Literatures, has retired. Dyck’s contract began Sept. 1, 1857. He joined the faculty of Waterloo College [then affiliated with the University of Western Ontario) iI Segtemt)er,, 1957, and at the same-time also taught at the Waterloo College Associate Faculti& (now UW). Dyck says he became a professor in the Kitchener-Waterloo community “by accident.” He and his wife, Sarah (a Waterloo native), were attending her sister’s wedding when someone suggested he pay a visit to Waterloo College, a Lutheran church college then affiliated with the University of Western Untarib. While, Dyck was doing so someone asked him if he could be of assistance; this offer came from the dean of Waterloo College who,
at the end of their conversation, handed Dyck a faculty application form. Dyck stuffed it into his pocket and thought no more about it until after his return to the United States, where he was teaching at Oberlib College. Later he began to feel he might enjoy a year in Canada and after some negotiations, and with his wife’s approval, he joined the faculty of Waterloo College and, on a half-time basis, the Associated Faculties. Initially, his appointment was spade by the late Bruce W. Kelley, UW’s first dean of science, who also served for a time as the acting dean of arts, Before long, he was made chairman of the Germanic and Slavic department, a role he has filled through most of the past 30 years. Dyck says his first year went comparatively smoothly, but

It was a good choice, Dyck says. Mannheim is also a young university and it too has an excellent reputation. As well, it is also in the “twin cities” . . . of Mannheim-Ludwigshafen. In the fall of 1972 the first group of ‘11 Waterloo students went to Mannheim. So successful has the “Waterloo in Mannheim” program been that in June, 1983, the University of Mannheim presented Dyck with its second highest award a silver medal, and a plaque

I must admit feeling somewhat apprehensive last Saturday night when several friends and I banded together for security and made our way to Kitchener’s premier country and western venue,the Stampede Corral. Jbkes concerning being ground into the dust by large-bellied men wearing leather boots that jingled and big hats .were passed about, only partly in jest, I’m happy to report the evening was a screaming success and it wasn’t necessary to hide my ponytail under my hat. Playing that night was Code of the West, a *competent, thoroughly enjoyable band that included journeyman bassist Mark Dineen, a University of Waterloo grad. Fronting the band were lead guitarist Wendell Ferguson and voctilist “Nikki”. Although only 17, Nikki displayed a high degree of professionalism and had a great pair of lungs. Playing three sets that totaled more than two hours, Code of the West ‘also included several requests from the small but enthusiastic crowd. While this type of venue and music obviously does not appeal to the average students here at Waterloo, perhaps the more adventuresome [or open-minded) would appreciate the change of pace from the standard Fed Hall fare and enjoy a bar devoted to C and W. The Stampede Corral can be found at 248 Stirling, Kitchener. Just follow the horrendous smell emanating from the meat processing plant.

by Don Kudo Imprint staff Kill Tunes are aggressive though not quite as thrashy as the contemptible cover art may suggest. They all harbour a firm base of guitar rock ‘n’ roll. The vocals add to the gnawing nature of the songs by bordering on the edge of shouting. Slow Kill Tunes are sung with the verve of a drugged couch-potato cowboy. A backing of a key-. boardless Riders on the Storm cradles the hazy vocal settings.
It’s good to see that, despite his absence of 10 years from the music world, Robbie Robertson isn’t stuck in the past. He is successful in not sounding dated. But I have to wonder, is the sound on this record his? It sounds so very little like his previous material, it’s difficult to
tell whether this is what he sounds like now or this is what his money bought when he hired Daniel Lanais to produce. After listening to this album, it comes as no surprise to find that Peter Gabriel and LIZ make cameo appearances. So do t+vo of Robbie’s ex Band-mates but you don’t hear them.

Sometimes it’s actually a blessing to have an older brother or sister, especially, a hip one. Nobody’s born cool, so if you’re a post-baby boomer, how else are you gonna hear about MC& The Sonics, and, more to the point, The Flamin’ Groovies, as anything more than distant, hoary legends? You can start by picking up One Night Stand, the result of a _ one-day binge The Flatiin’ Groovies tient on in a studio in July of 4986. After being available for _ months as a pricey import, One Night Stand-was-licensed last fall by the impossibly hip dudes at Fringe Product as part of their growing empire of indie and import licensing where else could you expect to get a double Swans album (Children of God) for a measly 11 bucks? Assuming there’s something resembling justice left in the world, The Flamin’ Groovies should steal some thunder back from the countless contemporary campus radio darlings - everyone from The Replacements to The Liine Spiders - that they’ve influenced since their inception in 3965, Recalling a pre-Rolling Stone (the magazine] period ’ when it was enough for rock ‘n’ roll to be fun and melodic, One Night Stand is pure rock ‘n’ roll excitement. . 1
Recalls a time when it was enough for rock ‘n’ roli to be fun and melodic I
Four old Groovies standards ‘are “covered”, including the 1976 classic Shake Some- Action, given a bit of hi-tech shakeup, and Slow Death, an pld garagey with one of those seminal guitar riffs that seems to have-been lifted by everyone from 22 Top to The Ramones. Even more of a blast, though, are the six avers. ’ Paul Revere And-The Raiders’ Kicks is admittedly such a brilliant piece of rock ‘n’ roll nostalgia that only a complete oaf. could butcher it, but The Groovies’ version here is more than acceptable,. and the vocals whip a lot-more life into an above average Hoodoo Gurus song (actually a tribute to The Croovies) than the paisley-donning Aussies can muster. Wild singing and guitar soloing make for lots of mod fun on The Who’s CalI Me Lightning and a humungous cover of Freddie “Boom Boom” Cannon’s (remember Palistldes Park?) Tallohossee Lassie, a song that jumps out of the speak, ers and right down your throat. This is more than an artifact or an archival curiosity. One Night Stand is one wild rock ‘n’ roll blowout that leaves its rough !+dges showing by a bunch of old 3eezers that sure as hell aren’t showing their age. r

Though this album isn’t bad it’s hardly the “touch the hem of his garment” stuff that some would have us believe. There’s not much here that grabs me and says “kick out the jams, Robbie’s back!” I like Testimony, a neat R&B/gospel pastiche. But not much else really stands out and much of the album suffers from that same preachy tone that ruins UZ. Even the song-titles give this impression, like Showdown at Big Sky. Robbie’s voice is not the greatest but on Fallen Angel it really grates. These reservations aside, it’s not a bad effort for someone who was so long out of practice.
Kill Tunes aren’t mixed with the brilliance of tilossy production techniques. Every track is seemingly a one-take effort, A couple of live versions, with polite- singular applause, adds to the honesty of the album. till Tunes tell tales of lost love, racial injustice, and baseball. All the lyrics are twisted in a morbid portrayal of the song ---L!--A SuD~ecr. Kill Tunes is an album by The Leaving Trains. It’s an SST product which pretty much defines the odd and challenging nature of the sound. SST, being the mpst important American independent label, is also the home of Black Flag, Minutemen, Meat Puppets, and new heroes Dinosaur Jr. Like their stablemates, The Leaving Trains’ music is in* itially hard to swallow but later becomes forcibly ingrained on one’s conscience.

The young Waterloo Warrior@ basketball team is looking like a group of seasoned veterans. UW walked into Brock on Wednesday night and shocked the hometown B,adgers, 80-67. The win ran Waterloo’s record to 3-0, putting it atop the OUAA West. Last Saturday (Jan. 9) at the PAC, the Warriors crushed the Guelph Gryphons, 76-59. 3 “We played so hard,” exclaimed UW coach Don McCrae. “I’m really pleased, especially since Tom Schneider is out of the line-up.” The injured guard sat out Wednesday’s game suffering from fluid on .his ailing knee. Hard-driving guard Rob Froese, playing on a sprained ankle: paced the Warriors again with 24 points. Jamie McNeil1 ruled the front court, scoring 16 points and clutching 18 rebounds. The pleasant surprise of the night award went to rookie guard Chris Troyak who poured in 14 points- and played--pesky defence. Frosh Peter Sawchuk also turned in an inspired effort. “Those young kids went nuts,” beamed McCrae. “Every game is getting easier and easier,” said a contented Troyak. “Everybody’s really starting to gel.” Jerry Nolfi added 9 points and Jeremy Moore hooped 8. Brock’s infamous front line was neutralized by the Warriors. All-star Kevin-Moore was frustrated all night, scoring just 7

HUMBLE! Warriors split on‘ the road
by .MUca McGraw and Todd Coulter The Waterloo Warriors hockey team is not renowned for its quick starts. Such was the case in two road games last weekend. Th6 Warriors never recovered on Friday night, dropping a 5-2 decision to the Western Mustangs. On Sunday afternoon, UW rebounded from an early hole to edge the Laurentian Voyageurs 7-5. The split leaves UW in third place in the OUAA Central division with a record of 8-3-2. The Warriors are now ranked sixth in the CIAU top 10. On Sunday, the Warriors faced the hyped Voyageurs, who were coming off a 4-2 win over the Laurier Golden Hawks the previous night. The Vees carried this momentum into Sunday’s matinee, taking an early 2-o lead. 4 fluky goal at 6:34 of the first put the Vees up l-0, a lead they extended to z shortly, afterward. As usual, the shocked Warriors fought back, as Scott Dick banged a rebound put of mid-air to make it 2-1. Before the intermission, Steve Girardi tallied,on a power play to deadlock the game at 2. When any team travels north, they often end up battling the officials as much as their opponent;. This was evident in the second period when the referee dished out five minor penalties to Waterloo, Despite playing half of the period shorthanded, the Warriors emerged with a 4-3
lead. Dick scored his second of Qhe day on a fine effort to put UW up 3-2, After the Vees tied it‘ up, David Long’s hustle-put him in position to score the fourth Waterloo marker. Laurentian pelted the UW cage, outshooting the Warriors 18-5 in the second; But the see-saw battle waged on-into the third, as the Vees scored just 25 secsnds.into the final stanza. Waterloo regained the lead when Jim David found the mesh on a power play later in the period. Yet once again, the pesky’ Vees battled back, knotting the game at 5 shortly after David’s tally. The Warriors tightened up at this point and exercised some caution - a move which paid off. Mr. Clutch, Steve Linseman, notched the game-winner through a hoard of bodies in front of the Vees net, Linseman later iced the victory with an empty net marker. Laurentian’ outshot UW, 29-28 for the game. Chris Glover recorded three assists for the Warriors.. Lady luck was not on Waterloo’s side in the loss at Western. ’ Once again,’ the Warriors dug

early.
The
Mustangs opened the scoring 28 seconds into the contest. The Warriors had their opportunities, dinging three goal posts in the pbriod, but failed to beat a sturdy Mustang netminder. There was no love lost in the first two periods, as both clubs showed their dislike for one
another. Western led 2-1 after 40 minutes, Glover tallied for the Warriors, converting a two-onone with Jamie McKee. The Warriors missed several golden opportunities early in the third, and paid for it as the Mus-tangs capitalized on a power play to go up 3-1. Waterloo showed a brief surge of adrenaline when Dan Tsandelis converted Todd Coulter’s centering pass on a power play to make it 3-2.
But the euphoria was short lived, as the special teams let UW down again, Western notched its second power play marker to take a commanding 42 lead+ Waterloo pressed, but the Mustangs crushed any visions of a comeback with a iate emptynet goal. Western outshot Waterloo, 30-26, and went 2 for 6 on power play opportunities. The\ schedule doesn’t get any easier for the Warriors. Tonight (Friday), they host the Guelph Gryphons at Columbia Icef ield at 7:30.

He scored a game-high 24 points including four a-pointers and e-of-6 from the charity stripe. Preston fitkling netted IO and Pat Sullivan added 9. Guelph was silent inside without the 618” Bolzon who is on the shelf for the season with a broken clavicle, Guelph’s front court scored just 14 points. The Gryphons shot a paltry 42 per cent from the floor. With regards to the sluggish start, McCrae commented, “You always struggle when you play 12 players things break down.” He added, “We played good offensively. Guelph’s really hurting without Bolzon.” McCrae continued his plan to incorporate most of his bench throughout ,the game. McCra,e praised the stellar effori of Froese. “Rob’s doing a lot of playing for other players. That’s the sign of a good veteran player.” After Saturday’s game,-. McCrae indulged in some lighthearted media-bashing. “Most of the predictions about this division have been made by reporters,” quipped McCrae. “Which means they don’t hold {Fuch validity.” Then, in a sarcastic reference to this reporter, he hurled, “Who is this Mike Guffaw guy? Is that his name? The guy who predicted us to finish fourth. Doesn’t he know anything about Waterloo basketball historjj?” Wishing to avoid an ugly con_ fqontation, this reporter had no comment.
dx~m Ball State e slams Warriors
by Refton Blair Imprint staff A solemn Rob Atkinson, coach of the Warriors volleyball team, spoke tiroudly of his team fol-, lowing its loss January 7 in a titanic battle against Ball State. The Indiana team, ranked eighth in the .NCAA preseason, defeated Waterloo three games to none. The Ball State team, which ’ will boast at least one All-American, was purposeful in its play as members used their superior jumping abilities to outplay the very aggressive and hard-nosed Warrior team. Our Warriors, despite playing an outstanding game, could not get the important points when needed. In the third game of the ma’tch, forinstanee, the Warriors led 7-3 for the first 10 minutes, with both teams breaking serve continually with great spikes and blocks at the net, To this point, Ball State seemed less than a match for the Warriors, but the Hoosiers suddenly turned the level of play up several notches, taking control of the game to grab an 11-7 lead. The Warriors, not an easily intimidated team, fought back from this deficit to tie the game at 11 on a whistling smash shot. Later they would ‘recover from a deficit of 13-11, but the Indiana team, sensing its. advantage,, came up with some big plays tg pull ovt a 15-l? victory. The game was indicative of the kind of season the Warriors are having. Waterloo has a perfect record in league play this season, yet the team is not respected by its opponents or peers. The Warriors only other’loss this sea&n
was to fourth-ranked Ohio State. And they boast a victory over eighth-ranked Indiana. Coach Atkinson is puzzled, but not concerned, by his team’s notideable omission from the natlonal rankings. Atkinson’s said on-campus support is more important than outside recognition: “As a te’am representing the University of Waterloo, we want to develop a foliowing in this school for our program”. He said he was surprised; but pleased, by the fairly large crowd, some 500, for last week’s game. And he said he hopes the students that have been witness to the $h+y of his team wilI pass the word around and more students will come to see them in league, play. Coach Atkinson’s pride in his team stems from the fact his team is one of the youngest in the league: three of his starting players are rookies and two of the remaining three are in second year. Despite the two losses to the stronger and more experienced American university volleyball powers, Atkinson is confident his team will be able to victoriously represent itself against the competition in coming weeks, and will be a play-off force. He reminds the loyal followers of this team that the PAC will be the venue for the playoffs and the Western division champions hips. He said he is looking forward to a very successful season and hopes that fans will come to recognize the volleyball team as UW’s most successful varsity squad’ in OUAA West competition. _

Labatt’s Athletes of the Week
Windsor edges by Kate Cox Imprint staff
Warrior of the Week .-Rob Froese Basketball
,
Rob is no stranger to the Athlete of the Week, having been here many times during his illustrious five-year career with the Warriors. A native of Stratford, he played with the the 1982 OFSSAA champions, Kitchener Cameron Heights. As captain of the Warriors, Rob has assumed new duties in his fifth year. A certain OUAA all-star, Rob has added the quarterbacking duties on the floor to his immense scoring role. Recently, the young Warrior team has won four consecutive games, including a 58-54 win over Laurier and a 76-59 triumph over Guelph. Rob was leading scorer in all four games, netting 14, 31, 24 and 22 points. He was also the’ team’s second leading rebounder, all from the guard position. Since Christmas, Rob has shot 92 per cent (22 for 24) from the free throw line).
Sprinter I approaches new -record by Kevin
The Athenas basketball team played their third game of the OWIAA season on January 11 against Windsor, but unfortunately were defeated 62-55. However, Athlete of the Week <Brenda Bowering kept team spii;its high with her dynamic rebounding and contribution of 13 points. Kim Rau’s strong offensive skills resulted in her also scoring 13 points. Windsor was + in the lead throughout the game, although the Athenas did come within 4 points of Windsor’s score during the second half. Some of the contributing factors to Windsor’s victory were its high percentage of successful free throws, aggressive rebounding, and the confidence that resulted from recent victories over McMaster and Western. The Athenas did not play as aggressively as they usually do, nor did they work to their potential on offence and defence. They will most likely improve during their next few games. One of the most memorable moments of the game was Sheila Windi& brilliant z-point shot, which made up almost half of the seven points she scored, Other high scorers were Jennifer Hinton with IO points and rookie Kelly McGoldrick chipping in 6. The Athena$ are confident that they will defeat Windsor when they meet again,
Athena of the We& Brenda Bowering Basketball A fifth-year -player witd the Athenas, Brenda hails from Burlington.’ Brenda wil! graduate this spring in the co-op Math Chartered Accountancy program. This past week-end, Brenda was thrown into a difficult role as guard with the injury to Karen McCulla. Brenda had an outstanding game despite a 61-55 loss to Windsor. She notched 13 points, hauled down 7 rebounds and held Windsor’s leading scorer to just 8 points. As the team’s co-captain, Brenda will be looked up.on for leadership, in this, her last term at Waterloo.
