co e t
a trade by Michael Treacy Imprint staff One of Canada's most pressing political issues, free trade with the· United States, was the sub· jeet of a debate at a half-empty Humanities Theatre September 20.
The debaters were Donald MacDonald, a finance minister hi the Pierre . Trudfjau government, a co-founder of the Cana~ dian Alliance for Trade and Job Opportunities and supporter of free trade. Mel Hurtig, a Cana· dian nationalist from Edmonton. opposed free trade.
Each man was allowed 15 minutes for opening remarks. then five minutes each for responses. The small but interested au-' dience was then' allowed to ask questions of both debaters. Both MacDonald and Hurtig said the free trade talks were reaching a critical stage where public debates must be held to simplify the issue. MacDonM's said Canada can and should compete in the world market and be a leader in many fields. In this period of economic, protectionism, he ;said, Canada must use its vast supplyofnaturalresources to enter foreign markets before theya're closed
by trade barriers and tariffs. MacDonald used the examples of Ben Johnson becoming the world's fastest human and Team Canada winning the Canada Cup as examples of the competitive spirit Canadians possess. Mel HurUg81so said Canada is capable of competing economically on a world scale. but should not rely solely on a trade agreement with the U.S. since the U.S. has not told Canada what they are willing to· up In return for an agreement. Hurtig said Canada cannot receive a fair trade deal from the Americans because of existing duties on Canadian goods, softwood lumber and potash for instance. Canada has already made too many concessions to the U.S., he added. MacDonald quickly responded that with a kee trade deal. Canada would no longer have to wait for U.S. judicial hearings to decide if restrictive tariffs would be imposed on Canadian goods. Our goods would flow freely across the border, as would American gomis, hc;l said. ., Some audience members interpreten,,Ma(!I;lQ.llatd's reiIlarks as' . without a fre.e . ,-

Strike m'easuresinplace by Mike O'Driscoll Imprint staff Most of the departments serving students on the UW campus have launched contingency plans w keep operations on an even keel following this week's announcement of rotating strikes among Canada's .23,000 inside postal workers. , lean-Claude Parrot, president of the Canadian Union of Postal 'Workers. and his membership followed through on threats to initiate the strike-action after .negotiators. failed to reach an agreement by Tuesday's mid-' night deadline. Both sides are set to dig in for a long battle over Canada Post's plans to decrease the, number of postal stations and turn the jobs overto the private sector. The move has almost para~ lyzed the country's national mail service, and while the potential for repercussions here on campus is high, most departmental officials are confident they'll be able to weather the labour storm. Correspondence services, one of the areas most vulnerable to a mail strike, has notified its students of a number of alternative route!' for incoming assignIDl:!nis. Bruce Lumsden, the associ ate direct or o,f dis tan t education. said UW's 6,000 correspondence students have been told "to make every effort to get things to us."

Bell b cks ow 'on busin ss rate d
by Mike Oni-iscon Imprint Btaff
UW students living in the newly constructed Columbia Lake townhouses were informed this week they will not be forced to pay the business phone rates originally demanded by Bell Canada. The issue came to a head when tenants protested the move that would have seen them pay almost four times
the standard residential fee. According to Federation of Students President Ted Carlton. the decision, officially handed down on Wednesday, was exactly what the townhouse issues committee was expecting. Townhouse residents will be charged' the residential rate if phones are installed only in the kitchen and at the top of the stairs. The same applies if only individual phones are installed in the bedrooms. each participating occupant paying separately. The students may
not, however, apply for extensions to the group phone in their bedrooms. Carlton said this arrangement is designed to ensure each tenant's right to apply for an individual phone. and to make room for the installations of computer modems in the future. While he admitted the system may infringe on the privacy of those sharing phones. he said the problem can be solved by simply buying a cord extension long enough to reach the rooms. . Despite the ruling, the originaUegis-

Stud ntsafet concer by Bridget Moloney Imprint staff A non-existent sidewalk. insufficient night lighting, and no traffic lights where one appears necessary are some of the current safety concerns of students at the University of Waterloo. In response to a question regarding the lack of a sidewalk on the road leading from Fed Hall to Village 2. Nick Oz.aruk, director of the health and safety department. said no concerns have been brought to his attention. He agreed that in the winter when the road is perhaps slippery and the snow banks are high, both students and cars are forced to share the road. leading to a potentially haz.ardous situation. In addition, at 1 a.m.. when Fed Hall. closes high numbers of students and cars use the road. Now aware of this issue. Ozaruk claimed he will "take the recommendation under assessment". After an initial assessment of the location, the health andsafety"committee, under the
jurisdiction of the physical plant department. will rate the seriousness of the situation and assign it a priority. This will put the situation on a waiting list for the funds necessary to install the new sidewalk. When asked about the need for a crosswalk or traffic light for students crossing Columbia Road near the new student townhouse development. Ozaruk said crosswalks are the respDDsibility of the Waterloo Regional government. However. the university can request a "traffic count from the region which will count cars on Columbia as related to the number of pedestrians crossing and the time of day". The flow of traffic and the number of pedestrians crossing Columbia at that spot probably will not warrant the installation of a traffic light, he said. Dean of Students Ernie Lucy said he was not aware of the need for a sidewalk on the road leading from Fed Hall to Village 2, n()r<with the need fora pedestrian crossing on Columbia. In--
Women's Commissioner Wendy Rinella is a member of the university's sexual assault committee. Emergency telephones, better night lighting and widening and straightening the path through the dense patch of trees leading from Minota Hagey to University Avenue are some
formed of these issues, Lucy expressed concern over them and over the need for adequate lighting on campus at night. Lucy referred <to the Women's Commission 8S a group which plays an active role- in trying to improve safety on this campus.
a d
lation that Bell Canada was acting on, which specifies that four or more phone extensions on one line may be subject to the business fee schedule. is still in place. Carlton said because a Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission tariff policy remains on the hooks, this week's decision "could stilI be open to change." The next step is to "see that the tariff is changed and to establish that four students living together does not constitute a business," said Carlton.
of Rinella's key concerns in the attempt to increase safety on this campus. Rinella said she hopes the efforts to improve safety on campus will result in the implementation of safety standards for all universities in Ontario.
Cor.respondence students get chance to meet profs by Robert Gissing Imprint staff September 25 marked the mature student/correspondence student luncheon, As part of the two-day event featuring tours of campus facilities used to record lecture packages; the correspondence students had a chance to introduce themselves to their
professors and mingle at a special wine and cheese held for them at the University Club. Correspondence students from as far away as Washington Port, New York. were in attendance for the activities, showing that this program has an "international" appeal. The luncheon held last Friday at the Laral Diningroom in South Campus Hall.
attracted more than 80 students. Isobel Mackay; co-ordinator of the mature student services. said in an interview that, ..... it is good that correspondence students have a chance to mix with students taking courses on campus and to talk about professors and courses just like regular students. This action is very healthy for all involved."

An Ontario Court of Appeal decision thi~ week to ovet:tllrn a SIl.a mUlion liability award to a paralyzed Brampton youth is g()od nes for . everyone,. . . The original award was levied against the City of Brampton-after . the Ontario Supreme Court found fhe city 75 per cent responsible for an off·road motprcycle accident in a BJ'ampton gravel pit. The 4eclsion was seen as a catalyst in the recent of skyrocketingliabilUY ." insurance c o s t s . . Tuesday's 'appeal,court decision was greeted with a sigh of relief from the insurance industry, the city itselfand a h08t of other municipalities, school boards, hospitals and the like which have been ; subjected to huge increases in1nsurance premiums. If the ruling stands (an appeal will likely be made to the Supreme Court of Canada), there should be an easing in the insurance market. Although the premiums of municipaliti.es and other institutions were the most affected by the award, auto insurance rates have also risen dramatically in the last few years. We should probably see a stabilizi1lg effect in premiums - a welcome change for students. who are often .hit hardest by insurance companies. When the award was first made, it stunned the industry !by placing the bulk of the blame on the city, despite the fact. Michael McErlean, who was 14 atthe time ofthe 1977 accident. was racing his dirt bike in the restricted area. The appeal court judge found that the Onta~io Supreme Cou~t decision was wrong in placing blame on the city, saying McErlean's young age did not relieve him of responsibility for his actions. . . Despite the soundness of this decision, McErlean;s parents were shocked. They had been counting on the money to support their son, ,now 24. who is brain-damaged and a quadriplegic. While McErlean's is a tragic case, it is ,obvious most of 'the blame fol;' the incident lies· with McErlean himself and, indirectly, with his parents who let a 14-y.ear-old kid have the dirt bike in the first-place. He is deserving of,ourpity, but it is noUair to expect all of society to bear the burden of his m~stake. The original ruling undoubtedly had. an adverse effect on insurance premiums;' if the decision is allowed stand (by the Supreme Court of Canada), we will all pay the price, either directly through premiums or indirectiy&hroughtaxes. And, the door will be open f-or$imilar legal actions; -.

Vegetarianism as a cull By Dawn Miles Last winter, there was a discussion in the Campus Centre on cults. When the speakers finished, a woman asked a question, using the UW vegetarian club as her example of a cult. When I heard about this, I thought it was funny that anyone could hold such a ridiculous opinionafter all, the club was just a group of people who didn't eat meat, for many different personal reasons ranging from health to religion to culinary preference. Then I paused· to think: do people really feel threatened by the club? Do they believe that we are trying to convert impressionable young people with a subversive doctrine? How could such ideas develop in an intelligent university student's mind? The vegetarian club's motto is Education for Health and Peace, and this is what we try to do. As the author of an earlier vegetarian column said, "the facts are there. but people have to make their own decisions. We're not out to convert people, because con- , version has no substance." (Imprint, Sept. 25, 1986). We want to educate people· so they can make an informed choice.
For example, if you were to ask us, we could tell you about all the scientifically . proven health benefits of eating less meat. Such a choice could benefit your health, the health of the world's ecology and health of the world's hungry people. (Not to mention the health·of the animals - you've go to admit that live is healthier than dead.) We could also discuss the peacefulness of a vegetarian lifestyle with you. It is less exploitative of third world countries to avoid meat. It is less violent not to have to kill your food and not to subject animals to adverse conditions of many production methods. Many of the world's great people have been vegetarians for these reasons. Perhaps someone you admire is a vegetarian. Could it be that Einstien was so smart because he refrained from eating meat? Ghandi got his strength from veggies. It may be that Paul Newman is aging so well because he's a vegetarian too. Who are we trying to educate? Well. for one, intelligent, curious people such as you who are reading this now. For another. those who are trying to improve their health
and are concerned about the ecology and the survival of our planet. Also, we try to educate . ourselves. Some of what we learn is serious stuff like that mentioned above. Other things are more lighthearted, for example we learn new recipes at pot luck suppers. New cooking techniques at demonstrations and the locations of really good restaurants. We learn about things like ecology by watching movies like The Mission (I'm glad popcorn is vegetarian. We use a few different methods to try to educate people. We have had booths in the Campus Centre on days like World Vegetarian Day or at the Health Alternatives Fair. We welcome interested people to our events. We have a library in the club's room that has books you can browse through or sign-out. Lastly, we make ourselves available in the club's room at scheduled times to answer questions or just to have a conversation. Many of us were omnivores previously, so we can relate to what you're thinking. So if you're curious or interested, take advantage of our willingness to share with you. You can be sure we won't bite.

by Chris Ge~rard (8 pseudonym) Imprint staff I have been reading an interesting book lately entitled Homosexuals in History, written by noted historian A.L. Rowse. I had always known of,a few prominent people in the past who had had same-sex preferences, but this book uncovered quite a few more. The book is also interesting as it gives a brief history of each person. Unfortunately, it concerns only males from the Renaissance onward, but, still,' that is quite a few people. So, I thought I would share some of the names ofthese famous men with you, and why they are so notable. For a more detailed examination of the following people, I encourage you to pick up a copy of the above book - it contains a great deal of information on them, their loves, lovers, as well as what we know that points to a same-sex preference. Everyone has heard of Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), and Michelangelo Buonarotti (1475-1564), both famous for their art. Leonardo was also an engineer, horseman, and musician. Michelangelo was as. well sculptor and architect, and prunter of the dome of St. Paul's Basilica in the Vatican. During the reign of Elizabeth I. the following men were known to have asame-sex preference: Christopher Marlowe (1564-93). poetsnd play write; Emperor Rudolf II (1552-1612},best known as the patron of Elizabeth 1's astrologer and his medium; Antonio Perez (1534-1611), Secretary of State to Philip II for 11 years; Anthony Bacon {1558-1601}. brother of Francis Bacon (15611626), both homosexuals. Francis Bacon was alive in the time of the Court of James I (1566-1625) - James himself preferring men over women - and was one of the most brilliant minds England can claim. Another notable in James I's circle was Robert Cecil. who managed James's accession in England. . Louis XIII of France (1601-43) preferred men, but did have relations with women, eventually producing two sons, Louis XIV (quite heterosexual), and Philip, Duke of Orleans (1640-1701), who was gay, and a distinguished soldier. The eighteenth century aristocracy was far less prejudiced against homosexuality, as shown in the writings of such as John, Lord Hervey (1696-1743), Court official, effective politician, writer, and pursuer of men. Other notable gay men of the time were Horace Walpole (1717-97), creator of Strawberry Hill; the poet Thomas Gray (1716-71)i Sir Horace Mann (1701-86), described in Rowse's book as the "pivot of Anglo-Italian society for nearly half a century": artist Thomas Patch (d 1782): Frederick the Great (1712-86), King of Prussia, who elevated Prussia from a secondrank German state to that of a great European power; and Johann Joachim Winckelmann (1717-68), first of the modern Hellenists. The nineteenth century enjoyed the presence of such men, all with same-sex preferences. as the writer William Beckford (17591844): Lord Byron (1788-1824), poet; Tchaikovsky (1840-93), who needs no explanation; French poet Paul Verlaine (1844-96), French novelist Marcel Proust (1871-1922); American poet Walt Whitman (1819-92): American novelists Herman Melville (181991) and Henry James (1843-1916), and, of course, Oscar O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1856-1900). Serge Diaghilev (1872-1929) was a crucial figure in the history of the arts in the twentieth century in both Russia and abroad. Also in this century were Andre Gide (1869-19511, French writer; the novelist Somerset Maugham (1874-1965). who, at the end of his career, said candidly that his greatest mistake had been that "I tried to persuade myself that I was three-quarters normal and that only a quarter of me was queer -- whereas really it was the other way around": novelist Hugh Walpole (1884-1941): T.E. Lawrence (1888-1935). known as "Lawrence of Arabia", who participated in the liberation of the Arabs from Turkish rule; E.M. Forster (1879-1970), novelist; poet W.H. Auden (1907-73); French writer Henri de Montherlant (1896-1972); Yukio Mishima (192570), "the first Japanese writer of our time for the West"; and John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946), economist. That is a lot of names. And I have left out a great deal more in an attempt to keep this column to a reasonable length. All of these men (especially the last group from this century and the one before) made monumental contributions to society, and the welfare of person kind. I have not given them their due here (Homosexuals in History is more than 300 pages long, and still leaves out a great deal about those described between its covers). But iUs rather interesting to see that all of these great men at one time or another (some more than others) have pursued their same-sex preference. At some point in the future. I will take a look at impressive gay women in the past, so stay tuned.

When you makepiuP t1tirgoad, one;.sl isn't enough:"
My name is Bob Horton and lama Christian. >Well, I'Ve said it. Now that we have that out of the way, I would like to tell you a little about this coluQln and why I am writing it. As I said, I am a Christian. I make no apologies for that, I simply state it so that you will understand where I am coming from. I wasn't always a Christian. I became a Christian during my ,years at Waterloo. I found, aSI was looking at the Christian faith that I had a great many misconceptions about Christianity and it is for this reason that lam writing these articles. I would like to talk,openl, about .some of the issues and concerns' that many people (including myself) haVl! expressed about the Christiim faith and the Christian church. I would also like to bopefully dispel some of the more common myths about Christians and Christianity.', . ., " With this in mind, lwould like to start with one olthe biggest problems/hangups that exist. within the Christian church: the problem of hypocrisy. " . Now, r should get a couple of things straight right off the bat. First, there is a difference· between the Christian faith and the Christian church. When people refer to Ghristianity you Olay ask which they are referring to, the Christian church or the Ctifistian'" faith, or if they are referring to both.? Well, theChristian church, in ell of its varieties, attempts to live by the teachings of the Christian faith. One would assume thereforelhat Christianity is referring to the act of living by or trying to live by the preceptsofthe Christian faith. NGw, if we take the Christian faith to be what is written in the aible then we have at least ,a rough working definition of. what Christianity is. (I will deal more on the difficulties with this definition in a later article.) , Now on to the topic of hypocrisy within the C,hristian church. First off, you will note that I did not say the problem of hypocrisy within Christianity (or the Christian faith) but within th~ church. Jesus said that tbe greatest commandment was this "Listen, Israeli The Lord our God is the only Lord. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, .and with all your strength.' The second most important commandment is this: "Love your neighbour as you love yourself;" (Good News Bible) Jesus felt that this summed up the commandments. If we look at the implications of this, we see that hypocrisy has .no place within the Christian faith. Yet, "everyone has sInned and js far aw~y from God's saving presence." Thus, because we are human and inherently sin!.,ul, we do not do as we should. We should love each other (and ourselves) completely but we are unable to because we are sinful. , Even as we are sinful, and don't love each other fully we find ourselves telling other Christians to do something and then we don't do it ourselv~s.People see us doing these things and say we are hypocrites and to a great extent they are right. We are hypocrites, but if we are to live as Christ has called us to live, we will strive not to be hypocritical. Further, when we as Christians see someone elte being hypocritical, we. if we are to love our brother, should understand our brothers failings as we would our own, This does not mean, that if we have an opportunity to explain the situation tactfully that we shouldn't use such a situation. It means that we should learn to be more tolerant. When you 100JFat the Gbristian faith, or for that matter any faith. you should look to the founder. If what the founder says is credible and at least some ()f the supposed followers of the faith are able to live-out the teachings of the founder, then that faith is worth considering. Jesus Christ camelo teach us how to love one another. In my look at Christianity before I became a Christian, I . found that some people Who called themselves Christian actually did live a life of love and openness. It was pe,ople like that whose lives convinced me to become a Christian. It is a life like that I am trying to learn to 1iv~.

Deciding who gets. into Canada by Fleur Macqueen Imprint staff Canada was invaded on July 28. 1987. Or at least the government made it out to look like that. And just who were we invaded by? "A boatload of harmless unarmed people" said Colin McAdam. McAdam, a representative of . the Coalition for a Just Immigration and Refugee Policy. addressed a symposium held by the coalition at St. Matthew's Luthern churcn in Kitchener. on September 26. He was referring to the July 28 arrival of 154 Sikhs off the coast of Nova Scotia, which sparked national media interest and emergency government legislation.
Backlash against refugees cites 8sneed for legislation The coalition was formed last winter as a result of recent decisions by the immigration department concerning the acceptance of refugees into Canada. On Feb. 20, 1987, the Canadian government announced that some refugees would be turned back from the borders. The flow of Central American refugees leaving -the U.S. had greatly increased since the December. 1986. passing of 'legislation which punished American employers who hired immigrant's without legal status. Since that time. two new pieces of Canadian legislation, bills C-55 and C-84, have been tabled. aill C-55, a refugee determination bill. was tabled May 5 to speed up the current refugee determination system. The existing system consists of eight steps and takes up to five years. :fhe proposed legislation il).volves only ·three steps arid the government proposes that a claim would take months in~ stead of years to process. Currently, anyone arriving in Canada wno claims refugee status is allowed into the country and an inquiry is held to determine that person's status. With the . backlog created by the numbers of people claiming such status, and the right to appeal a decision. a person may stay in the country for up to five years while their claim is being decided. Under Bill C-55, an initial hearing of the claimant's case wiU be held with an immigration adjudicator and a member of a Convention Refugee Determination Board. People with refugee status elsewhere and people arriving from "safe third countries" who have had the opportunity to claim protection there would be returned to these . countries. The "safe third country" section has been a major source of controversy. The government proposes to draw up a list of countries which are determined "safe" for those people fleeing violence and- oppression their own countries. If people claiming refugee status have made their way to Canada via one of these countries, they would be expected to apply for refugee status there. Immigration critics have noted that the list w-ould have to be frequently updated. 01' else people could be returned to countries wh(ch. would not protect them. . . McAdam stated that the U.s. would probably be considered a safe third country, due to the closeness of Canadian/American relations. However. he said

The above chart, taken from Employment and Immigration's staff newsletter, compares existing legislation with Bill C-55 that the U.S. is not a safe refuge for Central American refugees, who are fleeing repressive governments (such as in Chile, Guatemala and El Salvador) or anti-government terrorists (the Contras in Nicaragua) who are financially backed by the American government.

and that they should be turned back or held until their identification can be established. as the Sihks were for 28 days. He said such a policy is'not one Canadians want to show the rest of the world. especially after Canada was awarded the Nansen medal in 1986 by the United Nations for humanitarian work, McAdam explained the bills as being products of a Tory party failing in popularity. In January 1987, the Hawkes Committee, made up of human rights groups. refugee groups, legal people and politiciaQs presented Ii proposal for a more streamlined but jusJ refugee determination process. "
Instead, Bill C-55 was drafted and tabled. . McAdam s-aid that after the Oerlikon deal in December 1986, the latest of seven or eight party scandals, in which cabinet minister Andre 'Bissonette was forced to resign from the cabinet over a shady land flip deal. the Conservative party was "ripping itself apart." In an effort to reunite the party, Mulroney listened to the demands of the ultra-conservative backbenchers. who demanded a "tighter reign on immigration, establishment of the death penalty and a fast track on free trade." . "Now. in support of their new immigration legislation, the government is "ready to whip up all this hysteria" when refugees land on our shores. McAdam said, "confusing the public so that they think Canada doesn't' need such newcomers." McAdam was extremely critical of the term "queue jumpers", which implies that refugees sucft as the Sihks were getting in ahead of people who had made claims for landed immigrant status. "It implies that the.re is only one door for people to get into Canada. and that refugees and immigrants are fighting each other to get through that door. We aren't fighting each other, 'fe're fighting the government." Refugees and immigrants are dealt with under two different systems, and separate numbers are maintained on each. In 1980, a(,:cording to the immigration department, 1.600 claimed refugee status in Canada. In 1986, more than 18, 000 people claimed such status, and 25,000 claims are projected for 1987. Rather than seeing refugees as illegal immigrants (those unacceptable for landed immigrant status who claim refugee status instead). Canadians must be shown that refugees are people who are fleeing their country in fear of torture and/or death, said McAdam. . He urged listeriers to continue .to write letters to the government and media. work with groups which aid refugees. demonstrate against the bills. lobby MPs and talk to people about what copsequences this legislation has for refugees.

geophysicist takes part ntarctic drilling pr ram
After 62 days at sea under extremely difficult conditions, Dr. David C. Nobes, UniVersity of Waterloo geophysicist. has returned from an ocean drilling program (ODP -':leg 114) in the sub-Antarctic part of the Atlantic Ocean. His was one of four cruises that scientists hope will help unlock the puzzle as to how the structural features of the Southern Hemisphere came into being, including the movement of large land masses across the earth's surface (plate tectonics). The, focus of Nobes's trip was onthe development of water currents and paleoclimate around Antarctica and the South Atlantic. "It was one of the most exciting cruises I've been on," says Nobes. "We broke all weatherrecords since deep ocean drilling started in 1968." "Yet in spite of the conditions - 24 days of fog, 38 days of rain, snow or sleet. and 29 days of gale force winds. including 20 days when the wind was greater than 50 knots (100 kilometres per hour) - we only lost one and a half days drilling time," he reports. It was the first ocean drilling cruise where waves broke over top of the bridge - with swells, during one storm. more than 40 feet high. The drill ship, JOIDES Resolution, officially registered as SEDCO/BP 471. is equipped with a computer-controlled dynamic positioning' system; this controls 12 powerful thrusters, which maintain the ship over a specific location while drilling in water of depths up to 4,500 meters. The ship can suspend as I much as 30.000 feet (9.100 me-, ters) of drill pipe to o\)tain core; samples.· • "We were looking at the history of the opening of the Drake Passage, which is between Sout4\ America and Antarctica. I and the opening of the South: Atlantic and the impact on the oceanography and climate," says Nobes. "Before the opening of the Drake Passage deep Antarctic bottom water could not flow into the South Atlantic," he explains. "The opening of the Drake Passage brought on a pronounced cooling period." Sailing as a physical properties specialist, Nobes went from Port Stanley, in the Falkland Islands. across the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, ending at Mauritius. 500 miles east of Madagascar, in the Indian Ocean. Throughout the trip. core samples were tested for acoustic properties. density and water content. Since sound velocity varies with water content and rock type knowledge obtained from the cores will helP.. in the interpretation of geophysical surveys generally.· Combined wHhbiostratigraphic and sedimentological studies, his work will alsn help describe ancient climates andhmd configurations, the historv of the ocean currents and the arrangements of the continents. through time. "Modem day analogies can be made." says Nobes. "and. we may be able to predict climate changes in the future." He says the Earth's irregular orbit - it's eccentricity. the angle of orbit and the tilt of the earth's axis - all interact to produce climate cycles. and can combine to produce glacial (cold) and interglacial (warm) periods. "Because these cycles, known as Milakovitch cycles. affect our climate, they also affect the. growth of different microanim-

Man goes batty, shoots flying pest by Mike O'Driscoll Imprint staff Waterloo Regional Police force members. including the Emergency Response team, answered a call to 485 Parkside Drive in Waterloo September 29 after a number of residents reported gunfire in the hallway of their apartment building. ' . The call came in at about 8 a.m. Within minutes officers had cordoned off the area bordering on the Sunny dale townhouses and were redirecting traffic while their specially trained colleagues took up tactical'positions. Although police believed at the time they had a armed and dangerous suspect on their hands. and passing witnesses suspected a hostage-taking incident was underway. the actual situation proved to be less serious. An occupant of the building emerged just under two hours later, no one was injured. Police said an unidentified man in his thirties apparently returned home from the night shift at work to find an uninvited bat in his apartment. Being short on hospitality. the man chased the intruder out into the hall. where he tQok care of it with a pellet gun. Police confiscated the pellet gun. along with a handgun and rifle. The batman was briefly taken into custody. although no charges were laid. not even assault and BATtery. Apparently the incident was not connected with recent Gotham City crime wave. although Commissioner Gordon could not be reached for confirmation.

orking in fashion
by 'ChristinE!"' fischer Imprint staff It's that time of the term already - time to make jobselections for the next co-op term. Job selections mean job interviews. This is when -the fear begins, since appearance is an important factor in the all-important first impressions. As if worrying about what you will say to impress a prospective employer weren't enough. you also have to worry about how you look. The choices in nine~to-five fashion this fall are many. Particularly popular this fan are the vibrant purple-and-teal combi~ nations. brought together in exciting abstract prints. These prints can be seen in soft sets, a combination skirt and blouse set which can be worn together as a dress or apart for flexibility of wardrobe. The fashion scene this fall is experiencing a fifties flashback of the' classic black and white houndstooth, always right for _the office atmosphere. Paired with a flash of vibrant red, houndstooth is nothing less than a fashion classic. Houndstooth separates leqda great deal of flexibility to R-wardrobe because of its neutrality. Black and white checked separates have also made a comeback along with hounds tooth. Both are perfect solutions to the office. Wear di~ lemma. The strongest colour family by far this faU is the browns. Coppery browns, pumpkin oranges. and jungle khakis. are highly visible everywhere you look. Warm and sumptuous. separates in the brown,colour fam- . ily are available for nine-to-five wear in great variation. Pair an abstract-patterned soft set with a coppery blazer for a professional touch. Blazers this season have new lines; collarless, round necklines unfitted. This look is clean lined and professional, and can add an important finishing touch to your office-wear. Sweaters are extremely popularin both men and women's wear. Brilliantly coloured and textured, animal printed路 and glittery, the right sweater can work on the nine-te-five scene as weH as the casual'one. A black
.and copper patterne~ sweater paired with black pants or a skirt can work well in the 路office atmosphere without seeming too路 casual. When you choose your interviewing outfits. consider your prospective employer. A carefully thought out ensemble can indicate to him/her that ~ou are
conscientious and the job matters enough to you to dress well. Good luck! Fashion co-ordination by Blair Lancaster-Kemp. fashion co-ordinator, Market Square All Fashions courtesy of Market Square Shopping Center, KitcheneI'.

Have you ever been to Bloom County? It is a wonderful place. When I was much younger I lived part-time in a world of futile baseball games, doomed kite flying. and eccentric friends. It was a world of children, a world of animals; a dog that flew a sopwith camel, and his feathered companion. These personalities were much more alive than most of my classmates. I remember them fondly. I've been introduced to a new world now, a world with some adults. some children. some

The latest edition of the BC chronicles has been released under the name Billy and the BoingersBootleg; a mind stunning heavy metal group whose members include a retired lawyer. a rabbit, a penguin (with a knack for wild tuba solos), and a tongue-twanging cat.

Smartly dressed in suits and featuring an attractive female singer. the Simply Red band joined Hucknell in warming up the cold, miserable Tuesday night. The crowd was relaxed and politely listened to the songs. The band was sophisticated, energetic and entertaining. Hucknell's voice and the band's sound carried well from album to stage, perhaps lacking a little rawness which was hard to tap from the crowd's relaxed response. Never having really listened to Simply Red, except on the radio, I was impressed by the bands overall musicianship and style. They had a polished sound with just the right edges for popular music. The band was going at a strong pace, but the crowd wasn't to daring and joined in the excitement during the last couple of songs, Holding Back the Years and Money's too Tight to Mention.

PAC crowd works up sweat September 22, 1987. A rainy day in the city of Waterloo, several hundred people gather at the PAC building. Tour buses are parked out front. It's a school night, anticipation of a wild, rowdy rock concert? Possibly, but what we do get. is a night of sophisticated pop rock with Simply Red and the Danny WHson Band. Doors opened at 7:20, people start to file in. The PAC remains pretty spacious for an act of this magnitude, but a university crowd would show them what a party would be like, unfortunately, tonight it would take a lot to get the crowd hopping. Opening was the Danny Wilson Band. a Scottish group with a name derived from an .old Frank Sinatra movie. The eightpiece band walked onto a fairly crowded stage of amplifiers, instruments and monitors, which obviously restrained their effect on the crowd. The lead singer, Gary Clark. presented a smooth and slick voice sadly lost in the
forgetfulness of the first four songs. The style was strangely reminiscent of old .ABC Performing a set of only six songs, it wasn't until the popular, radio-played Mary's Prayer that the band began to elicit some response from the crowd. Unfortunately, this was further hampered by migraine-giving feedback and other various sound difficulties. However. the Danny Wilson Band was professional. smooth and slick. They could spin off sophisticated pop/jazzy tunes like the best of them; If their last song and new single A Girl I Used to Know is any indication of the direction that they are taking, the band will probably come out on top. The song was fast with horns and guitars. arranged competently with just enough raw edge to give it appeal. Half an hour after the opening act. Mick HuckneH strutted his stuff slyly on stage with an old blues :;dOg. Sound problems now basically worked out, HucknaH was able to envelope his voice throughout the PAC gym.

is unrelentingly evil and treacherous to the end. When he feels insulted that Othello promoted Cassio (Derek Boyes) to his lieutenant, he determines to avenge himself on both Cassio and Othello. lago devises a scheme in which he can involve both characters and use Desdemona as the central figure. He brings Cassio into disfavour with Othello by contriving to get him drunk and held responsible for the ugly drunken brawl that results. Derek Boyes. in his role as Cassio, has ups and downs because his performance is not always believable, although he did play exceptionally well during his drunken brawl scene..
This season's performance of Othello at the Stratford Festival is not the best performance ever of one of Shakespeare's most famous tragedies. It is nevertheless worthwhile seeing simply because of the nature of the play itself. In Othello, Shakespeare has managed to create a tightly constructed, intense concentration of action and emotion that makes it an extremely powerful piece. At last Saturday night's performance, Othello, a Moor and a general in command of the army of Venice, was played by Joseph Ziegler instead of by Howard Not only does lago organize Rollins, who was indisposed. the brawl to turn Othello's anger Ziegler managed the role easily toward Cassio, but, feigning enough, although it often seemed friendship, he also advises the he was simply repeating memo- latter to seek Desdemona's help rized lines and not showing suf- . in convincing her husband to ficient emotion for the part. reinstate him.

This Corrosion Sisters of Mercy
by Trevor Blair Imprint staff Andrew Eldrich is back. The dark one returns with an eight and a half minute epic on world decay. This Corrosion. with its pounding back beat. church' choir of fallen angels, and killer chorus. works itself under the skin and stays. Eldrich, reclaiming the Sisters of Mercy title after a brief stint as The Sisterhood, proves himself to have been the core spirit behind the ' band.
Whilst ex-sisters pursue commercial success in The Mission, ' Eldrich concentrates on preserving the spirit of the original Sisters even without Wayne Husseys' hypnotic guitar hooks. Preservation ,and progression seem to come naturally as this single testifies. This CorrOsion is . by far the most danceable Eldrich project and should do well in dance, clubs with openmindedDJ's. The flip-side contains a soft plea for faith and loyalty, asking fans to keep the Torch. Also included is Colours, one of the more complete songs off the Sisterhoods Gift EP. The dark church organs. co ll pled with thudding rhythms. provide a seven-minute trip into a night that never ends. Eldrich has rightfully claimed

Suburban Distortion presents Ii little Peterborough-influenced
reggae, a classical ·guitar solo thoughtfully called Solitaire. and the rest is noise with bothersome beats, provided by a drum machine on their debut cassette. There's even an accordion found on the one song that managed to force me to smile. Reagan's Polka Party uses a basic blues bass progression matched with the accordion that breaks into a spoof of polka with the bass staying lazily back in its bluesy format. Pretfy ridiculous stuff. Sure. this is an experimental tape for these kids from Trent. problem is all their efforts are poor and not worth picking up. even on a lark. They claim that they have aspirations of recording an EP.

Suzanne Vega thankfully has none of Jane Siberry's self-conscious "my ~usic is really, like, poetry set to music, y'know?" preciousness and liking Suzanne Vega doesn't presuppose an affection for street mimes and their ilk, either.

Suzanne is very much her own .person and Solitude Steading is ,very much her own excellent album.

•• Hard As Hell! Various Artists Music of Life
by Paul Done Imprint staff Hip-Hop and rap is still primarily a New York phenomenon. the biggest stars and most successful records are still recorded by New York artists like LLCool I. MC Shan, and the late OJ Scott La Rock and will be released on New York labels like Cold Chillin', Def Jam, Select and Sleeping Bag. However, rap has already developed strong scenes in the U.S. in locations as diverse as Philadelphia (SchoolY-D), Miami (2 Live Crew. MC Shy-D), Los Angeles (Ice-T, LA Dream Team) and even Connecticut (TC' Islam). The first country to have developed a Hip-Hop scene other than the U.s. is England where labels like Rhythm King, Champion and Music of Life have provided an recording outlet for the hest of the small, but active British scene. Music of Life is in the forefront of signing British talent. and have now released Hard As Hell! a compilation of British Hip-Hop groups which stands as perhaps the best Hip-Hop compilation released, regardless of country. From the straightahead approach of Derek B. to the wild Reggae/Hip-Hop collision of Asher D. and Daddy Freddy to the scratching pyrotechnics of OJ Hanway, every track on Hard As Hell is nothing short of excellent. It is appropriate that Hard As Helll opens with The Tables Are Turnin' by CJ Mackintosh and Einstein as it is probably the best British rap record recorded thus far. Einstein's loose. workmanlike rapping style complements Mackintosh's outstanding

However Wont of • • • does throw a few curves: Peace, Love and Flowers sounds like Sonic Youth filtered through four layers of sludge and Bullfrog is a really dumb song about swamp life. But the real standout is the spacey Driving On Drugs, an unexpected pleasure. The rest of the LP consists mainly of faves from their live Las Vegas style revue, culled from the out of print Gumbo cassette and their first EP.

If You Want To Defeat Your Ene.y Sinl His Sona The Icicle Works Beggars Banquet
by Peter St.thopulos I.print staff The new Icicle Works album is . dreadfully forgettable pop. Also, its title is too damn long. If the quality of the record was truly proportional to the length of the title, it should have been named If. Many of the songs on it pound out redundant riffs and trite tricks with synthesizers, few of which are original or interesting. Of course, there's a difference between having a distinct style on an album or just having a mundane sameness to all of the songs. Unfortunately, The Icicle Works, who showed a lot of promise with their first North American release. titled simply The .Icicle Works, have let popular formulas deteriorate their once distinct sound. Ian McNabb, Chris Layhe and Chris Sharrock have decided on a more dominating use of synthesizers and keyboard melodies than previous records where they Were used primarily for effects and emphasis. One of the singles from the album, Evangeline, begins with one of these springy melodies. This song is tolerable, actually enjoyable after some exposure. but the same formula is flogged to death throughout the album and causes the other songs to lose their individual identities.

When The Pick-Up Artist tells the. story of Jack and Randy's blossoming love, its pretty run of the mill; Ringwald's character is a pale imitation of Andie Walsh from Pretty in Pink and Downey seems stifled. It's at the start of the. movie that he's the best, delivering his oily lines with the speed and grace of a Sten gun. Jack is a goofy nice guy who can't stop talking, and Downey's deft comic timing puts his performance head and shoulders above anyone's. including Ringwald's. When the pick-up artist is doing his thing, the picture is great. But when he's not, The Pick-Up Artist is a dud.

The Port Dalhousie Stories Dennis Tourbin . Coach House Press 168 pages ($12.50) by Stephanie Kuxdod Imprint staff The. Port Dalhousie Stories is an entertaining collection of fiction, mostly .aboutadolescenee. in a small Canadian border town· near St.Catharines, Ontario, called Port Dalhousie. It is St. Catharines-born Dennis Tourbin's first published book, in which he fondly recollects his teenage years in an amusingly honest, sometimes slightly raunchy, conversational manner. It brings to mind one's own experiences .as an adolescent: the fears, the misconceptions, the' frustrations, as well as the plea-. sures of that carefree time, and we can share a laugh with Tourbin as his confidants. The Port Dalhousie Stories is reminiscent of J.D. Salinger's, The Gatcher in theHye, although not quite as brilliant, ' which shocked its readers when it was first published in the early 1950s because of its coarse language and the explicit manner in which Holden Caulfield described his experiences as a teenager. Tourbin's The Port Dalhousie Stories is told in an equally believable, easy-going, and touch. i~g fashion. and he thankfully spares the. reader nosweadng nor any detaileq descriptions of his antics and those of his pals, to IIlake it a wholly realistic, be. lievable story. John Boyle's illustrations throughout the book are amusing and may perhaps be offensiv~ to some (probably to those who would find the contents offensive as well). Personally, I found them to be the gratuitous interpretations of the artist and, not at all necessary to the enjoyment of the book. Perhaps Dennis Tourbin's particular interest in the exploration of language as a visual medium, and in the combined relationship of painting and literature led to the inclusion of Boyle's drawings. Tourbin admits that he is "writing stories about a young boy growing. up in a small Cana~ dian town" and he understands the impact those years had on his life. He also comes to the realization that one never really grows up; one keeps on growing up, and the memories conjured up of days gone by are essentialelements of growing up. .
The cenobites are interesting, though, as is the whole concept of masochism as their lifeblood. These creatures, however, are wasted on this unfortunate horror film' and I'm sure would be more at home in science fiction or space fantasy. Ironically, it is these out~of-place elements which are the only sourceofvariety and interest in the film. I>er'haps these creatures are supposed to represent something. All they really do is leave the viewer more confused than enlightened - remember the New Flesh in Videodrome? I look forward to seeing good horror films. When I sat in the theatre, the gentleman beside me had a porridge of maggots oozing from his mouth and eye socket that ran down the .aisles. I thought I was in for a special evening.
Hellraiser or Thriller?
I was wrong. Clive Barker has some really interesting ideas, but just because Stephen King sells better than Frank Herbert doesn't mean you have to pursue horror to survive. ,

ringing gospel to rock'n'r II subculture by Rob Cumming Imprint staff路 Mylon LeFevre played to a capicity crowd at Waterloo Pentecostal Assembly last Monday night. The crowd consisted mostly of high-school kids, with a few university students scat-路 tered around. Although the band felt a little strange about playing in a church,路 they seemed to be able to talHl it in stride and produced a well crafted, sleek show~ MylonLeFevre has been through a lot in the time he's been involved in the music industry. He started out with the LeFevres, a Gospel music family quartet popular amongst the church crowd back in the '50s. While he was singing Christian lyrics he resented the whole thing. He still remembers having to go to a revival meeting instead of playing in an important football game because of his families insistence. It wasn't long before he dropped the whole thing and started with secular bands and met with fairly good success. He worked with people such as George Harrison. Eric Clapton and many others. He started with a hand that was to go on to become the Atlanta Rhythm Section. Unfortunately, he got involved with drugs at this time and became addicted to cocaine for a number of years and then also heroin. By 19tH MylonLeFevre was a wreck. Then a friend of . his invited him to a 2nd Chapter
Broken Heart rock W.P.A. of Acts concert and it was there that his life was turned around. Mylon rededicated himself to Christ. He cut his hair, threw away his rock albums and quit rock and roll. Just as all the Christians around him told him to. He took a job as a janitor at the church he was attending. As he said at the concert, he went from making $5,000 a day to making $5,000 a year. Many a lesson in

humility there. While working at the church he got to know some of the other janitors there and they formed a small music group and sang in the church. Soon they were going to prisons and singing there. It wasn't too long before they recognized that they should take . their music more seriously and so they formed a band which was eventually to become Broken Heart. Now they travel
around the country year round playing before crowds of as much as 40,000. They still do gigs for smaller crowds - they recently played路 for a crowd of 50! They take engagements only after praying about them and sometimes they work for free. Since all their equipment is paid for they don't need to worry about meeting payments. Their one goal is to reach the rock and roll subculture with the gospel.
Billy Graham with a guitar. They resent the efforts of some to make Christian rock an object of controversy and so refuse to comment on the statements of some high profile Christian leaders regarding contemporary Christian music. This. band looks upon each concert as a ministry - and it shows. A significant portii'm of the concert was taken up with Mylon LeFevre preaching. They make no apologies for either their music or . their preaching. However, people who had to pay $15 to get in may have wished to hear more music, but that is possibly the only problem people had with the band. The sound system, brought in by the band. was too powerful for a church and so it was difficult to understand the words. The church stage was also a little too low so that when people were standing up those who were. toward the back had difficulty seeing. Hopefully. these problems will be corrected for the upcoming DeGarmo & Key concert in November which is already starting to sell out. The song selection mostly consis ted of songs off of their Sheep in Wolves Clothing album and their newest release Crack tbe Sky. Interestingly. they didn't play any songs off of their CBS release Look Up, which if you've heard the album is maybe understandable. They've improved their stage show since last year, although the new guitarist with the band isn't nearly as good as the one they had last year.

too many threats from an oppressive husband. No one can convey the message like Allen, with her unique. so-realistic .and provocative sounds demanding a reaction.

Lillian Allen has a message in to give: we need action against mains in your mind. causing unrest .. oppression. What can we do about "opAs a woman, as a Black, as a person with a conscience, she pression, tyranny and poverty." feels the need to arouse people to Allen starts her quiet rebellion awareness. Almost every issue "wHh that reggae resistance." of importance is raised in her She explains that the aesthetics performance. and none are for- !Jf dub poetry are "formed in reg. gotten easily. .gae tradition, with increasing Beginning with her favourite and decreasing volume, while inpart, her solitary performance of fusing internal dynamics." This poetry, she speaks of a victor- unique form of expression capious woman who, at the "age of tured a young breed of poets 49. climbed out of sublime" after. born in the 1950s.
To fully enjoy this performance you must let down your barriers, open your eyes. Soon, there are people in the audience dancing, clapping, yelling "yeah" as Allen warns the world, "I fight back." This . music is not only for Blacks or for women, it's for anyone who knows that oppression exists. Unfortunately, those against whom she rebels are probably the first repulsed by her outright method. From poems of prejudice, to male superiority, to apartheid in South Africa; to Ronald Reagan's murderous weapons, Lillian Allen covers almost all anti-authotJtarian issues. But why does she perform dub poetry? Because these "revolutionary tea parties" get through to your soul. You can't help believe in this woman whose spirit you just can't kill.

Symphony deUversclassicperformance by Peter Lawson Imprint staff The Kitchener-WaterIoo Symphony pushed its Masterpiece Series into first gear last weekend [Friday and Saturday nights) with two performances. The symphony opened the evening with Mozart. followed with Berg. and concluded with Mussorgsky. The Masterpiece Series is the serious meat of the symphony's season which includes a Pops series, a chamber setting, and other events. A Masterpiece Series concert is alwavs held at Kit-
r
chener'sCentre in the Square and often includes both· wellknown and lesser-known works. For an opening, this latest con- " cert .began with a known work, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's (1756-1791) Symphony No. 36 "Linz". This symphony was composed in 1783 for a concert at the home of Count Thun of Linz. The orchestra's presentation, with Music Director Raffi Armenian conducting, was a consistent effort which theK-W audience has become accustomed. The colours in the music were especially pronounced through dynamics and instru-

by Peter Lawson Imprint staff The opening concert of Music Notes! Baroque And Beyond by the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony celebrated the music of J.S, Bach (1685-1750) and his influence on 20th century composers. The music of famous composers Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) and Anton Web ern (1883-1945) and unknown Canadian-composer Serge Garant (1926-1986) were interspersed ._ with two Brandenburg Concertosby J,S .. Bach. The s"parse Theatre of the Arts
ment balance; The Violin Concerto by Alban Berg (1885-1935) completed the first half of the program. A lesser-known work, this music presents a fascinating listen. Berg wrote the concerto in memory of a friend's daughter. Berg was very close to this girl and was deeply moved by her tooyouthful· departure. The work reflects this passion,. which struggles with the intellectualism of the twelve-tone system. The music rolls and froths from se'aring·emotionalism to musical precision. As soloist. Otto Armin
audience . at the September 15 performance (another performancewas conducted on September 16) warmed most enthusiastically to~ the Bach works and were left perplexed by the Garant offering. Garant's Offrandre 1 is at best an academic work. geared to the esoteric habits of extreme musicologists. The Theatre of the Arts audience was left cold by rather cold music - all brain. no soul. Based on Bach's Musical Offering, this work stretches the musical pallet with the chromatic scale and utilizes disjoint orchestration. In all, a difficult
,
piece to grasp. A difficult work to play, Webern's orchestration of Bach's Fuga (Ricercare - The Musical Offering) is constructed of short, rather abrupt, lines of music disbursed throughout the orchestra. The Webern version is an arrangement of Bach's six-part Ricercare (Fugue), utilizing a technique called klangfarbenmelodie (a method of scoring in which individual notes or small groups of notes are distinguished by successive changes in timbre). Because of the constant stop-and-go nature of this work for -orchestral members,

A more familiar work returned to conclude the evening music. Pictures at an Exibition by Modest Mussorgsky (1839-1881). Originally a piano work, Maurice Ravel orchestrated the work and this version was presented under the baton of Mr. Armenian. The orchestra, again. was up to task. especially for the conclusion The Great Gate Of Kiev -

In the standard three movements, the music is not tonally hard. but the rhythms are distinctly that of Stravinsky - jabbing injections. The works which meet the most audience acceptance were Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No.6 in B-flat major BMV 1051 and Brandenburg Cl)ncerto No.3 in G major BMV 1048. These

Warrior
victory
at
Western x-country meet The Waterloo Warriors cross country team surprised many coaches and athletesrespec-tively by coming from behind and winning the gold in the Western Invitational Cross Country meet last weekend. Held at the Thames Valley golf course in' London, this premier race included nine OUAA teams and two from New York. At the athletes reception the night before, the talk was that the Western men's team was assured of the win, with U of T and the Big Eight's Syracuse battling it out for second. The Warriors were led once . again by rookie-Paul Ernst, who placed fifth in the talented field of 127 starters. The race was won by Darrin Deforge of Western in 31:58. The Warrior victory can be attributed to intelligent racing and a great team racing concept that led to four Warriors placing in the top 10. Ernst (32:33) was followed closely by veterans Harvey Mitro, seventh, and Nick Cipp. eighth. Newcomer John Carson continued to' impress with an excellent tenth place fin. ish. VeteraQ Allan Faul~s finished fifteenth and rookie Scott McLellan, 20th, while. Sean McGuinness came 39th and veteran Shamir Jamal posted a 49th-place finish. Other Warriors competing were rookie Jim Milligan,·77th, and veterans Tim CoUins/ John Gonos andPet~r Mulvihill. who finished 83rd,
87th and 91st respectively. At the mid-way mark of the race, the' Warriors were. announced to be in third behind Western and Syracuse, and did not win the race until the last 100 metres when Faulds outsprinted Western's Kevin Deforge to seal UW's two-point .win. UW had 45 points, followed by Western with 47 and Syracuse with 87. Coaches Chris Lane and Don Mills, were extremely pleased with the results, with Mills stating. "Weare a Loblaws team. that is, we are no-names, but boy did we show them." U of T. who downed the Warriors last week at Guelph, were thrashed by UW. They finished fifth with 123 points. On the Athenas side, the powerful Michigan squad Won the meet, with U of T finishing a close second. Sandra Anschuetz of Western ran away from the field to set a- new course and meet record. Only three Athenas participated in. the race with Jill Francis running consistently to place 16th, while rookies Lisa Lafradi and Anne Hollingsworth placed 59th and 68th respectively.

McMaster escapes with by Refton Blair Imprint staff The game last Saturday was the one, some say the only 'me, that the Waterloo football ~,T riors should have won and coulJ have won had they· not turned their early opportunities into miscues. This was a game that Waterloo dominated along the defensive line of scrimmage. in the defen:. sive backfield and in the "gusto" department. There are numerous major factors for the loss : A fumble on the McMaster sixyard-Hne; starting quarterback Jeff Bell's inability or'reluqtance

Warriors hope to do some
banging·- this season by Mike McGraw Imprint staff While the Blue Jays find themselves engulfed in a dramatic pennant race. the sounds of dribbling basketballs are resonating throughout the PAC. Don McCrae is in the process ofmold·· ing the 1987-88 edition of theWaterloo Warriors basketball squad. Sixteen hopefuls remain from the 25 players who started training camp. McCrae said that as of today (Friday), "we should have it 90 per cent· resolved who'll play varsity." What is the attitude in the Warrior camp this season? As McCrae succinctly put it, "cautious optimism". Caution is rooted in the departure of UW's Mr. Everything; Paul Boyce. Boyce WaS the OUAA MVP last season and was a second team All-Canadian. The optimism lay with 1Q returnees, and what McCrae termed "A wealth of new prospects - with good size and good reputations ... One position wb~re the Warriors needn't be cautiously optimistic is that of guard. Gritty veteran Rob Froese returns for his last season of OUAA action. He has been one of the league's more prolific scorers in past seasons. The tandem of skillful Tom Schneider and gutsy Smurf Jerry Nolfi will once again handle the point guard duties. Add to this rookie guards Chris Troyak (from St. Jerome's. Ontario champs Jand Peter Saw-
chuk (provincial team member) and the Warriors can be downright cocky about this position. The Warriors often found " themselves thrashedby~argan tuanopponents in the front court last season. Thus. McCrae went in search of giants while recruiting - and he found some. "We've got 4 or 5 guys 6'8" or 6'9", giving us great potential in the front court." Leading the list are incumbents Jamie McNeill and Pat Telford. McCrae admits the loss of Boyce in addition to the beefed up front line will warrant a change in strategy. "With aU that size we hope to do some banging this season. Not having Boyce will force us to change our style. But with our depth and size, we hope that we can pound the ball inside to our big men." UW faPls will get an added bonus this season: a Warriors junior varsity squad. This second team will primarily play community college teams, due to the lack of OUAA competition (only Windsor and Western have junior varsity squads). "With the number of what we think are varsity players, we feel a junior squad is necessary," said McCrae. "I'm hoping some will play both varsity and junior varsity, therefore our roster will fluctuate." Already, the dreaded injury plague has hit the UW camp. Froese has a chipped bone in his foot, while 6'8" frosh Paul Doucette suffers from a stress fracture. Bighly touted Dennis
Waterloo tacklers struggle to bring down York ball carrier in Saturdays rugby. Byrne has a third-degree strain and sophomore John Vincic is recovering from a toe operation. Aside from Vincic's ailment, all the casualties occurred within two days. McCrae said the injuries will shelve these players for two to three weeks. McCrae stressed a greater training effort this season. "The empahsis was on season-long preparation, which will allow for a more sustained effort." . UW's pre-season potpourri of exhibition matches and tournaments begins on October 17 when the K- W Titans visit the PAC., Until then; McCrae will continue to sculpt his new project.

Warriors lookin
rloo The Early. Bird Tournament played September 26 provided mixed results for the Warriors' waterpolo team. as they posted a win and two losses in the three exhibition games. The Warriors stormed out of the blocks in the first game against perennial league doormat Royal Military College. Eight players shared in a very balanced attack, resulting in a 12-0 victory. Joe Milla, Michael Cash. Keith Beckley and Julie Lyons each scored twice, while Thomas Meyer, Jim Steinbach,: Norbert Molnar and Keith Cush- . nie each tallied one. The game; was marred by a brutality call: against RMC with 2:35 remain-. ing, giving UW. an extended:
oes 1-
power play to end the game. The second game versus Queen's was. much tougher. Queen's showed a stubborn defence in edging the Warriors, 5-4. The ~inning goal was scored on an unexpected backhand shot in the dying seconds against bacR-up goalie Thomas Meyer. Jeff Slater, Milla, Molnar and Cash tallied for UW. In the final game of the afternoon, Ottawa left the Warriors scrambling in their wake as they posted a convincing 12-0 victory. Ottawa's tight defence completely shut down any Warrior offence. Their quick transition from defence to offence led to many 2-on-l. 3-on-l and 3-on; 2 opportunities which they con-

verted to goals. Even the spirited' goaltending of Scott Murray could not prevent the rout. Despite these setbacks, head coach Dave Heinbuch still expressed optimism for the upcoming season. "I saw some bright spots in our play today. In past years we have improved more after the Early :Bird than other teams, so I expect us to be more competitive when league play begins." On the positive side, the team has been strengthened with the addition of Scott Murray and Julie Lyons. Murray has been the starting goaltender for the past three season and will be joining the team for most games (he is on work term in Ottawa). Julie is a

The Athena's field hockey team opened their OWIAA season with one win and two losses last weekend. U of T, with a full returning squad including three national team players, drubbed the Athenas, 6-2. Coach Judy Mc'Crae said, "I thought we played rather well, goalie Lori Parent made several key saves. One of the more encouraging parts of the game was that we were able to score. This is a particular emphasis for us this year." Janet MacPherson and Maureen Owens scored for the Athenas as they shut out McMaster, 2-0. Rookies Kylie Scoggan,
MacPherson and Caitlin McGregor made major contributions. Sunday's match against York was the weakest of the weekend for UW. York's National team players really confused the UW defence路 in a 5-0 win. Goalie Parent made 18 saves and blocked one penalty stroke. "The outcomes were accurate ones," said McCrae. "We did several things well. I was impressed with our veterans' ability to provide solid leadership ability by hard play. The freshmen are keen to do well and are responding to the coaching."

Soccer arri rs boote at Windsor by Tim Walker The Warrior soccer team only gained one point from two games played last weekend (September
26.27). On Saturday the Warriors travelled to Windsor with the women's team as both had games there. The Warrior!> came up with their worst effort of the year and'lost 4-0. The highlight of the. game was Warrior star Dan Rogozynski's stat keeping" (incidentally Dan hopes one day to open a beauty salon in the WeIland area). The Warriors were lethargic in the loss to Windsor. The Lancers scored a pair of goals in each half. This lack of mental toughness in the staring line. up led to several changes before the Western game. \ On Sunday the Warriors came within two minutes of winning their first game on Western turf in recent memory. With veteran Warrior star sweeper Wart Rcobinson injured Brent Wathan was switched to the back four. Upen Kawale and Dan" Rogo-
zynski got the start in the midfield and Chubby Strooper was inserted in the front line. The Warrior highlight of th~j first half. which they dominated, was Dan Rogozynski's yellow card foul of a very skinny Mustang midfielder. Although not condoning the foul it was nice to see a Warrior really get stuck in. In the second half the Warrior pressure paid of as star Warrior forward Upen, Kawale put aU of his 98 pounds behind a shot and found the back of the net. However, the fickle hand of fate. along with a shitty ref. combined to let Western tie the game. Western scored after a scramble and the ref called the game early. This was the best Waterloo performance of the year. The Warriors play at the lovely and picturesque Columbia playing fields this weekend. On Saturday the Warriors enter. tain the often inept Ryerson Rams and a strong ·effort by the lads should result in a win. On Sunday the Warriors plan to thrash the MacMaster Marauders. Both games are 1 p.m. starts.
