Federation of Students Vicepresident Shane Carmichael, formally announced this week his intention of running for one of the eight Waterloo City Council seats in the upcoming November 14 municipal election. p s t minutes before the Octo er 17 deadline expired. Carmichael submitted his nomination form to the clerk at the Waterloo City Hall. " E v e r ~ o n econsiders me an underdog, explains Carmichael, "but I'm going to sell them (students and community) on myself." The potential scenario of moving from Fed VP to city councillor is a precedent setting manoevre for the Federation of Students. "I'm taking it (the VP post) one step further." He hopes to make the city more aware of student issues and also bring city concerns to the attention of the universities. "I want to open up some eyes on both sides of the fence." When asked about possible conflict of interests, Carmichael doesn't foresee any major problems with holding two political offices at once. His duties a s V-P start winding down come winter, with elections for the next student representatives; however, he will assume a two-week leave of absence from his formal duties at the Federation starting October 24. "Some conflicts may occur, but if they do I will certainly declare them." He also points out that other council members have full-time jobs and are equaHy susceptible to having conflicting interests. The council meets once a week, u s u a l l y on Monday

has been spending money revamping the city's uptown core at the expense of funding the building of low income housing. He says there is housing available but adds it is out of the price range of many students, senior citizens and low income families. He admits the development projects are important but asks "Where are the city's priorities?." As far as recreational facilities are concerned, Carmichael believes the city is falling behind. He would like to see facilities,' such as an indoor track and Olympic size pool, built using funds from both universities.the city and corporate sponsors. He points to Seagram's Stadium as a "facility capable of serving both the universities and the community." Carmichael acknowledges he will need strong student support if he hopes to be elected on November 14, and he citess that there has only been a 6.5percent student turnout in previous city elections. He hopes a campaign on campus featuring posters, buttons, flyers and radio ads will increase the number of students who will vote. Funding is from "money coming out of my own pocket and a few supporters," Carmichael emphasizes. The last local enumeration was taken last May and many students here now are not registered to vote. Any student wishing to vote, however, can drop by city hall and register, up to election day. He will be up against five incumbents whom Carmichael feels have been generally supportive of students in the past but may be out of touch with current student concerns. The clock is running though.

Kitchener mayor hopeful sees crisis situation by John Zechariah Imprint staff

nights, so Carmic should have time to handle both positions. His summer and fall terms have been spent developing programs but now "I will do a lot more managing and a lot less developing," Carmichael said. Carmichael could also find himself in the unusual situation of approaching Fed President Adam Chamberlain both as his vice-president and a s a city councillor. He admits he "would have to tread lightly in that area," if elected. "My main reason for running is to open up communication lines between the city and students," says Carmichael. He notes that many students spend four or five years in Waterloo and should have a greater input into the running of the city. The "youth and energy (of the students) can help shape the community." While the universities, UW and Laurier, are involved with the city economically (spending a lot of money), Carmichael claims they are not socially integrated. "The universities are separate, we're like a little city on our own." The vice-president makes note of Canada Day, Shinerama and the Terry Fox Run, a s examples of successful city-student endeavours, but he adds "we need a lot more cooperation and working together." The main issues for Carmichael will be the exclusionary bylaw, municipal subsidies of uptown development projects and the lack of adequate recreational facilities. He feels the city's exclusionary bylaw, which prohibits more than four unrelated persons to live in the same household, is obviously unfair to students. Carmichael also thinks the council

Do you know about Kitchener City Council's plans to erect a new city hall, a new police station and a new regional headquarters? A s a resident of Waterloo, probably not. The trouble is, a.lot of Kitchenerresidents don't know about these plans either. This is one of several problems which have contributed to the develoument of a crisis situation in the City of Kitchener, according to David Kresky, who is campaigning to become Kitchener's next mayor. As mayor, one of Kresky's main priorities would be to increase the citizen's participation in the decision-making orocess. Thus, any solutions pGposed to combat Kitchener's v a r i o u s problem's would be sensitive to the needs of the whole population. Kresky offers the water issue a s an example of how he would implement this approach. Dur-

ing the winter, a base rate of water consumption would be determined for each household. Then, during the summer, any home exceeding the previously set rate will be charged for that amount. This way, citizens have a choice about their water; if they use it, they pay for it. This, says Kresky, is preferable to taxing the population for things like the Grand River drinking water project, a process in which they have no say. Kresky would also like to use the media to make people aware of the activities of city council. As ma or, he wants to run the counci?agenda in the local paper on a regular basis s o that all citizens can see it, thus allowing them to choose which issues they want to get involved with. He views the citizens of Kitchener a s shareholders in agiant corporation; a s s u c h , t h e y should have a definite say about how it is run, he said. K ~ e s k ywants growth in the city, but not if it adversely af-

fects the citizens. He doesn't want to promote or attract industry which will take up valuable lebensraum in the city. Now that Kitchener can only expand east and west, he says, we must be careful about how we use our space A student in the environmental studies faculty at University of Waterloo, he is concerned about environmental issues which affect the city, such as the aforementioned water issue, and waste disposal. He would like to see alternatives put in place which give people a greater choice about what they do with their garbage. "Waterloo i s cheap" s a y s Kresky. He feels the Waterloo Citv Council must stov letting thgcity ride on ~ i t c h e n e r ' sc o a c tails and develop some of their own services. He wants the two cities to work together, though, and sees the relationship between the two a s a sort of mar;

With roughly three weeks left, he must both get student support and get those students out to the polling booths. He hopes the concern over housing will get people out and he notes "I have personal knowledge of those concerns and can go and give input to the council."

-A/OS awareness week

Headshops threatened by drug

,Trying to make’students think. by Marc Brzustoweki Iniprint staff As part of AIDS awareness ;:week at UW, the Federation of -Student’s’ Public Issues Board ’ heid an AIDS forum Tuesday at ’ noon in the Campus Centre, In an attempt. to impress upon stu’ dents the dangers of the disease and the precautions that must be taken to avoid AIDS, representatives of the Waterloo Regional Health Unit and the UW Health and Safety Department spoke of the emotional toll of the disease, I and the physical methods of protecting against its spread.

“We are living with AIDS,” said Josee Duffhues, AIDS Program Supervisor of the Waterloo Regional Health Unit. Duffhues emphasized the importance of r confidentiality in testing, and in -deciding to test for AIDS. She told the noon day listeners that people with the disease must be *a&titiodated at the psychologfkaL3a$ +cial levels: “people

must be allowed to stay productive and contribute.*’ Duffhues put the number of AIDS carriers in the Waterloo Region at 40, but statistics for UW are confidential said Dr. Barbara Schumaker, Medical Director of the University’s Health and Safety Department. Schumaker is concerned with the spread of the disease, and recommends that if individuals wish to engage in intercourse they must first educate themselves about the methods of protection. “Look at condoms... the best kind of protection.” Schumaker outlined many alternatives to sexual intercourse including mutual masturbation, “eating pizza, and dancing. That’s all part of your sexuality,” She urged students to ask themselves what kind of sexual -relations they have had in the past and with how many partners; “have we used intravenous drugs?” Schumaker said no cases exist of AIDS transmitted by kissing or by oral sex, though, as she pointed out, it is very difficult to isolate oral sex from other forms of sexual activity. She further pointed to evidence that AIDS has been’ found in saliva. But, much to the relief of the listeners, Larry MacLean, a former LJW student now working on a masters in social work at WLU, indicated that for saliva to present a risk of infection four quarts of the fluid must be injected directly into the bloodstream. MacLean, who wdrked as a volunteer at AIDS clinics in Toronto including Casey House, called the virus a “rollercoaster

DRAMA

disease.” He told of how AIDS can cause traumatic changes in an infected person in a number of hours, or leave them feeling good enough to work for months. He also reflected upon the university environment as a good opportunity: “hopefully we will

also take the time to educate ourselves” about AIDS. In MacLeen’s opinion, students must be aware of the increased freedom at university as opposed to the home and must remember that after one mistake it’s too late.

Decision 1988 by Scott Murray Imprint staff

Students wishing -to ,vote in the November 21 Federal election have several choices ahead of them. First, you must be aged 18 or older by November 21. Also, only Canadian citizens are entitled to vote in Canadian Federal elections. Second, there is the complication of where Elections Canada considers the .student actually resides. Married students are considered to be residing where they are actually living on Enumeration Day, Single students, who are currently living at home, are also considered to be residing there, But single students, who consider themselves to be living away from home but not having permanently moved out on their own, are considered to be residing at home and should be enumerated there. Single students, who have moved out on their own, are considered residing at their current

location and should be enumirated there. In all cases, you should be enumerated before November 21, If you should be enumerated at your parents home, simply have your parents add your name to their’s when the enumerators call, The enumeration period is from Friday October 14 to Thursday October 20. Enumerators should visit your place of residence or leave a final notice if they did not find you at home. If you were not enumerated during this period, there is a revision period from Wednesday November 2 to Friday November 4. If you live on the UW campus (townhouses, residences, or church colleges), or live to the west of the campus, north of University Ave, and east of King St N, the? revision station is Wa‘terloo Christian Reform Church, located on the corner of Berringer St. and Albert St. If you do not live in this district, you can call the District Returning Office at 746-1598 and they will inform y.ou of the station that you should go to. ,

USSR dissent ,linked to nationalism by Marie Sedivy Imprint staff Political dissent in the Soviet Union can be linked to national unrest, was the claim Political Science Professor John Jaworsky made in a colloquium held October 14. He quoted one Russian political dissident who felt it was in prison that he learned just how strong the nationalist movement is, and that people are imprisoned primarily for nationalist activities. In research he conducted, JaI worsky noticed some nationalities were over-represented in political prisons. Lithuanians. for exampie, account for 15 De; cent of. political prisoners, but they only constitute one per cent of the total population. Jews, Armenians, Ukrainians, and those from other Baltic republics are also over-represented. Russians and South Central Asians are under-represented. Jaworsky noted that while Russian dissidents Iend to be involved only in civil rights protests, ethno-national grievances are the main motivating factor in dissent activity among non-Russians. Dissidents in. the USSR are subjected to harassment and may be charged with anti-Soviet agitation. Because arrest has not usually led to a decrease in dissident activities, the Soviet regime’s treatment of dissidents aimed at maximizing fear rather than repression; prominent leadera usually severely puna. were I ished. Jaworsky indicated that those involved in nationalrights sctivities tend to receive longer and harsher sentences than mere civil rights dissidents, and he attributes this trend to the regime’s perception of potential harm to the state. , -

international

“State elites have perceptions regarding which ethnic groups are more reliable and structure their policies to suit that perception,” Jaworsky said, Consequently, certain national dissidents within ihe Soviet Union are dealt with more harshly than others. Ukrainian activists, for example, receive unusually harsh sentences despite their poor support base. He states this ethnic map also determines holding of key posts within the system: Russians occupy the majority of senior military posts; the Politburo is overwhelmingly Russian; and Moslems are often used for lahour rather than militarv training.

emigres and the Jewish question. Dissent in other republics was ignored. Since 1985 when Gorbachev came into power, a loosening of the reins over m&dia has increased awareness of the national question. National demands have been discussed in the press in the Baltic republics. The release of substantial numbers of prominent dissii dents has also resulted ingreater co-operation among the various nationalist groups; a Coordinating Committee of non-Russian

”

national movements in the Soviet Union was established by dissidents who had been imprisoned together. This has permitted a greater exchange of information among the various groups. Despite these developments, Jaworsky is not optimistic about the future of national movements. Harassment continues, he said, and takes the form of short periods of detention without trial, fines for production and dissemination of un fficial literature, threats against P amily

members, and refusal of higher education to children. He also noted that V. Shcherbytsky, Ukraine’s First Pa&y Secretary, is the only one of Brezhnev’s old guard not yet replaced. That he remains in his post despite his conservatism indicates a fear among the higher echelons of the Party that Ukrainian national dissent -might get out of hand, The Politburo is more overwhelmingly Russian now than ever before.

John Jaworsky laworsky pointed that -a westernout press until. .I recently,.T the ignored the national question: recent demonstrations in Soviet republics, and Soviet press reports .of national unrest have brought the issue to the forefront in the west. Previously, literature on national unrest focused largely on civil rights movemerits in urban areas of the Russian Republic and on Jewish

riage, two distinct entities with separate concerns, but many common interests. Kresky is “not a fan of regional government” and would like to interact with the city of Waterloo with less intervention from that middleman. “Maybe we’ve outgrown it,” he says.

Symbolic would eventually like to see the region or the city take responsibility for the picking up of recyclables, but this stage is probably quite far off: a pilot project for apartment recy- , cling is to begin by the region in the fall of 1989.

COMMENT

Park Drotest

At this -rate, . bnly order2 buses The last time the Federation of Students from UW took part in a Queen’s Park protest was on March lo,,1988 - just under eight months ago. One week after that famed Ontario Federation of Students “march in March” the headlines read, ‘VW sent most to lowturnout rally.” Then, students from UW were protesting inaction on the part of the Liberal government. Exclusionary bylaws and student funding were the rallying points for the more than 500 Ontario university students, some 72 of whom were from the University of Waterloo. Now, as this latest call to protest draws closer to the October 31 date, the UW Federation of Students are hoping to fill more buses than last year. Last March, the Feds were hoping to send at least four buses; yet, on1 two left the campus. This year, Federation External A l fairs Commissioner Lisa Eckel has announced plans for six buses to leave UW. To sabotage this protest with criticisms would certainly be unjust and completely unintentional; however, right now, the word about the protest is just not getting through to students on this campus. If promotion is left to posters, buttons, internal memos and opinion pieces as well as news coverage in this publication, then *don’t count on more than the two busses UW filled last time. Currently, the Federation of Students are leaving the onus on society executives to “set-up forums or informational workshops to-further spread the word.” If underfunding, tuition, housing and student representation do not currently sit well with Ontario’s student university leaders, then they had better be more vocal about it than they have been so far. How can the average UW student be inspired to march on Queen’s park with as little publicity as befits a Simply Red concert or Santa Claus parade. UW students need to see their campus repr&entatives mad, mad enough to march. Why not organize a whirlwind of speeches on campus. Banking that people will come because “there will be 8 large party at the Ryerson College Pub after the event” is pathetic. P . Mike Brown

Five motorcycle members in a single family dwelling hold parties nightly, revving up their motorcycles, and ignoring children playing by the street. This too is acceptable to the city of Water100. So what is illegal? It is against the law for six students to live in an old six bedroom house on Erb St. That these students are wellbehaved, that they each have their own bedrooms, that there are adequate facilities, that they have found an affordable and reasonable housing option are all irrelevant. If they are unrelated, six is too many under Waterloo’s exclusionary bylawa. Similar bylaws are in effect in other university communities. The bylaws are discriminatory;

Perhaps UW students have found places to live in, but they are paying more for those than ever before, Moreover, housing woes are not limited to Waterloo: Guelph .is facing its worst housing crunch ever, students at the University of BC are in danger of losing their housing. The list goes on. Just as importantly, the bylaws also affect other low income groups, especially lo w-income singles who compete with students for the ever-dwindling affordable housing options available. At the same time that muaicipalities are restricting the number of unrelated persons who can live in a single unit, they are doing little; to provide alternatives. And with few exceptions, we as students are doing little to ensure ,theconstruction of other housing options. It’s easy enough for students ;o rationalize complacency; we are caught by the housing crunch only temporarily. We can protest we don’t have time to demonstrate. We can argue that protesting and lobbying doesn’t help. We can say we found a great bargain on a place, so we have nothing to get up in arms over, Or we can insist that it is up to politicians at the municipal and provincial levels to deal with

the

problem.

But what is the City of Waterloo doing? Asking the university to help in their fight to maintain these bylaws! What is the’provincial government doing? Sitting on a fence in regard to these bylaws and watching affordable housing diminish and luxury *.

should all do something: rsonal self interest, and soci r responsibility. It is to students’ advantage to ensure quality housing, to senti out a message that we won’t to!erate discrimination in housing options. Greater access to affordable housing. eases financial pressures off students. Doesn’t this make sense? We also have to keep in mind that we will have to live in the world we help mold: if we don’t take care of otential problems now, they wil P become even more critical in the future? Do you really think that housing options will. improve on their own? So far they have only deteriorated. As students we are faced with a responsibility; we are also presented with opportunities to make an impact. There are two elections coming up in November: federal and municipal. Now is as good a time as any to let candidates know that students are ready to stand up for their rights and for the rights of other low-income groups affected by exclusionary bylaws. The Ontario Federation of Stu, dents is also holding a protest on October 31. Why not let the rovincial politicians know fllow students feel? Incidental1 , this bylaw battle will likely vi e detided at the provincial level, You can be sure the municipalities will muster their resources to sway the province.

Hius,

According8to the region, the expansion is necessary to accommodate 9,m additional housing units and 175 hectares of industrial land needed by 2011. The region feels that both the ESPA’s and urban development. can co-exist; althaugh, ‘In theabsence of any dettiiledinformation on the nature, density and design of urban land uses that may be prepared adjacent to these ESPA’s, it is not possible to predtct the type or extent of indire.ct 6cological impacts which may Mist.” . The report lists some of the possible im acts: “Species of birds and animals which are R ‘ghly intolerant to such changes will go elsewhere.” In Forest Hills “the extension of the Ciair Creek Trunk Sewer.., would traverse the ESPA in a small valley loceted in the narruw central portion of the ESPA.” Forest Hills Wetlands would receive “one pipeline corridar to be established through the wetlands complex.” The outstanding uestioa is, what will the real implications of urban development %t for the ESPA’s? When asked about the past success of the ESPA program in rotecting envirorrmentdly sensitive areas, Proftss6r Rtiger SPPfling stated “ESPA’s have been very valuable and worked well until pressurt from growth became immense.” HWith the onslaught on the’lanvironwent it’s difficult for the Environmental and Ecological Advisory Committee (EEAC) to respond adequately to all requests made of it,” he added. Besides protection of ESPA’s, there are othti concerns with the proposed expansion. Although, adequate housing is a majqr reason for the expansion, there is little discussion of how the expansion will relieve Waterloo’s critical shortage of rental housing units. In the Schaefftr Woods area.for example, there are plans to build $300,000 to $400,000 homes. Students and other renters will not be able to. afford to ltve in this ,area. Despite ,a critical shortage of waste management facilities, there is little information on where the wastes of 28,000 additional pto le are going to be disposed. At a conservative estimate of 1,000 1if 8 of garbage r person per year, this amounts to an increase of 14,000 tone or waste per year. Other factors deserving further investigation art the provision of adequate water supply and waste water treatment which are already costing residents millions of dollars. Let’s also not forget adequate fire, hospital and recreational facilities. The ultimate question for this year’s munici al election ia who pays and who profits from large scale devePopmtnt schemes. Gerry Hall of EEAC recommends that an intensive “Quality of Life Study” be undertaken in the region to assess environmental, social, economic and cultural issues before large scale develop-

To the editor:

Lyn McGinnis’ October 7 article {Jesus - truth stranger than fiction) was so misleading, inaccurate’ and one-sided that I felt a response was warranted and the other side of the story should be presented for the benefit of those who honestly wish to know the truth about the New Testament record of Jesus Christ’s lift. If every book that was can-’ suited claimed that the Gospels at the product of many authors, revisors, and editors and art not historically accurate, it can only be concluded that not much looking has been done.

Writer should motor

down to Fed on Wednesdays * To the editor:

Imprint staff writer Chris Wodskou obviously has good taste in music. This is evident by, his rave review of the Paladin’s Years Since Yesterday album in last week’s Imprint. However, being one of the lowly DJs that everyone seems to despise at Fed Hall, I feel compelled to take exception to Chris’s prelude to his album review. You know, where he says “they” won’t play any of “my” requests. Chris and many others whose musical tastes are “alternative” as opposed to the mainstream dance and pop, are always blaming Fed Hall and its DJs for the musical content, And oh so many people take it personally when their requests (note they are not demands) aren’t played. However, you shouldn’t look to blame the D]s or Fed Hall. On weekends, the disco, rap and House music dominates the evenings’ repertoire because of the patrons. Not us. Hell, if I had my way I’d be playing rock-a-billy and country and western most of the night. I’d love to play more alternative music more often. But if I did, Fed Hall (which holds up to 800 people on any given Friday or Saturday night] would consist of that minority of people with this gift of exceptionally good taste in music. It just doesn’t look good when the dance floor is empty, the aisles are crammed with people and only you and I are happy with the music that’s playing. For that specific, Fed Hall has All Request Wednesdays where if we’ve got it, we’ll try our 1 darndest to play it. In fact, speaking for myself, I try very hard to stay away from the “electro-bop hop” music on Wednesdays. Funny. I never seem to see Chris there on Wednesdays. Furthermore, in defence of Fed Hall’s music at any given time, I

defy you to show me a clubin the Twin Cities - or this side of Toronto for that matter - that is of comparable size and plays the variety of music that we play at Fed Hall. Even on week-ends, our musical content can range from “electro-bop hop” to punk to reggae to rock and the alternative set. But it really depends on what type of crowd we have on that night. On a busy night,1 have to deal with over 750 different musical tastes and egos, If I had a penny for every time I’ve been told “c’mon man, play it. It’s a clas-

We are progressive in our music, have many of the top dance hits (including top 40 and alternative dance hits] and introduce new and alternai tive music - more so than any other bar within our size range you’ll find around. But even in the bar scene, the majority rules. So we’ll see you on a Wednesday night Chris, Dave Ducharme Fed Hall DJ

Mulroney echoes U.S. .policies by Peter Stathopolis Imprint staff “Canadians should pressure politicians to make foreign policy in Central America a priority in the next government’s agenda.” Tim Draimin’ advised Waterloo citizens and students that Canada should strengthen its international presence in Latin America and the Western hemisphere as a whole. He criticized Mulroney and his Conservatives for being content to shadow the United States’ view, while trying to convince Canadians they have their own mandate. Draimin, an expert on Canadian policy toward Central America spoke to a small gathering in Siegfried Hall and later responded to individual quee tions in both English and Spanish. Throughout, the lecture and in an earlier interview, he condemned Ottawa for emulating Washington in its foreign policy, instead of aggressively promoting its own independent line. “Canada has done very little to differentiate itself from U.S. policy in Central America,” Draimin said. The Canadian government may not want to speak out against U.S. foreign policy in Central America because, domestically, it’s trying very hard to negotiate a trade deal and

this aspect of our aid. The public only hears about the “humanitarian aid.” The United States has institutionalized conflict between Central American countries’, displaced their economies and many of their citizens, and made them dependent on further U.S. aid: Inter-regional trade between neighbouring Central Americans has dropped by two thirds, and many people have been forced back to living standards of 25 years ago. Canada has a chance to make a substantial difference in a region which has approximately the same population (25 million). One of the largest problems, however, is keeping tabs on our money, which is transferred directly from one federal government to the other-the catch: the recipient is often a repressive regime which corrupts the money for other purposes, The problem can be avoided by using internationally-based, private organizations (such as CUSO and Tools for Peace] that operate in-

gees crossing the U.S./Canada land border to declare themselves legitimate refugees, The current government also dispensed with a moratorium on the deportation of Guatamalans and Salvadoreans. Mulroney even trashed a program established three years earlier by Liberals to speed up the “red tape” for these refugees. Draimin admitted, “the recent legislation passed by the Senate will only concretize these negative trends.” Rather than accepting refugees, Canada wants to be invited as a peace-keeper in Central America. And they realize their chances of being asked will greatly improve if they give financial aid to the countries even if those countries do not comply with international law, such as by abusing human rights. Draimin admits “we give aid to everybbdy almost in an indiscriminate manner.” An example of this occurred in lQ87, when External Affair8 Minister Joe Clark g ave away $16 million to Honduras at a point when

dependently of the local government. Because Canadian aid is offered in a structure of repression, it deals with some of the symptoms of the problem, but not with the root causes. Draimin insists “we’re doing nothing to change the system.” We should be more willing to negotiate peace because of our physical proximity to Central America. Draimin compares Canadian interest in the distant Iran/Iraq war with that of the Sandinistas and the Honduranbaaed Contras. Canada has many more investments in Latin

America than in the Middle East and the majority of refugee applicants to Canada come from Latin America. It’s no wonder we want to resolve this conflict before it festers into “a Lebanon of the Western hemisphere.” Canadians have been directly affected already - the proof lies in the tide of refugees coming into our nation from Central America. The Conservative government has responded to this crisis by slowly gutting the refugee program since they came to power in 1984. In February 1987, the Tories changed legislation, making it impossible for refu-

In August 1987, five of the six Latin American president -(exeluding Belize) held a sum f it in which the defied the U.S. government Ii y signing the Arias peace plan and accepting the Sandinistas as the legitimate government of Nicaragua. This accord brought about a cease-fire and an end to the state of emergancy; re-established freedoms of speech, press and election; and requested that military aid to the Contras be cut off by the foreign governments responsible, According to Drafmin, “many considered this peace agieement as the first real declaration of independence of Central America.” A very important baai,s of unity exists between the Central American presidenta. They have recently realized their individual and collective interests differed from those of Ronald Reagan and the US government. The accord has not flourished because the US, government still wants to overthrow the Sandinistas rather than accept the validity of Central America’s own self-reconciliat ion.

The government of this West African nation reacted raidly, dispatching the waste rJ ack to Italy but this is the exception to a dangerous habit developing on the African continent.

disposal is U.S. $1000 in Europe, many agreements with African nations have been negotiated at rates as low as U.S. $40-50 per ton.

False r’mmuriiti

This week was AIDS Awareness week. Several events ‘occurred on and off campus marking the event, I felt moved to in some way contribute-to the dialogue, my only problem was finding something new to say. After all, hasn’t coverage of the “AIDS Epidemic” reached the saturation point? Apart from startling new breakthroughs and the need for repetition of basic precautions -what hasn’t already been said? I’ve been doing a little reading, remembering George Sant ayana’s admonition, “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it I” He’s right, we’ve faithfully repeated many desperate acts done before us in the face of “The Plague.” The “AIDS Epidemic,“like any perception of illness in society, has two parts’: first, the biological fact, and second, the individual and collective emotional response. It’s this second aspect that’s received little or no attention, though it’s controlled our perception of, and response to, the ,biological fact. The Buddha observed a strange truth about our response to the unpleasant realities. Surrounded by sickness and death all their lives, people retain the firm belief in their personal immunity to all calamity. We’re very good at sublimating unpleasant truths, or more to the point, distancing ourselveg from them. The possibility of mental and/al: physical disintegration is sufficiently disturbing to attempt to make the suffering person a -separate species from ourselves. This is symbolized as the. marginalized victim living on the fringe of society, usua1i.y due to some moral defect. Our image of any disease is the stricken, isolated individual. We project our uneasiness of “The Plague” onto this abstract, distant, and devalued person, thereby removing the threat. We flirt with “chaos” when watching a horror film or finding ourselves

drawn to the scene of an accident. Yet we are firmly committed to “chaos” having no place in our day to day lives. When it happens it’s always “out there” and “to them.” With AIDS, our basic stereo-‘ type of the victim is the marginalized individual, living on a siigmatised fringe of society, isolated and distant from “us.” As I said at the beginning, there are many historic examples of similar responses to “The Plague.” MO& include conceptual boundaries being constructed, separating “we the healthy majority” from “they the sick minority.” This latter group are seen as not only deserving of, but responsible for their plight. An important distinction needs to be made here between male atid female victims of “The Plague.” In the past, a male victim appears as a passive, isolated individual; whereas a female victim appears in the role of actual scmrce of “c0ntagi0n.” Let one “Plague” of the past serve as example of our predictable response to AIDS in the 1980s. In the 1500s there was a new and terrible scourge, horribly disfiguring its victims throughout Europe. It was an especially severe form of syphilis, Initially blamed on a terrible configuration in the zodiac, literature of the time depicted the sufferer as a social outcast. In many subtle ways assumed crimes were hinted at, displaying the strong desir? to link disease with wrongdoing. Remember, the actual cause was at that point a mystery. Sexual self-righteousness played no part in this conceptual alienation of the victim. This cruel banishment was done, then as now, to reassure the majority of

a “moral” universe. By the nineteenth century the image of the victim of syphilis has switched to a woman. In one pamphlet of the time, a beautiful woman is seated while a man woos her. Unknown to him the face he sees is merely a mask held up to her true face, a grinning skull. Disease remains the province of the marginalized, socially deviant individual, but now its the “loose” woman. She’s not a passive sufferer, but the active agent of disease. Now in the twentieth century we are again faced with “The Plague.” As with our predecessors, we are affronted with its existence and quick to find some comfortable fiction to mask the indiscriminate threat. Simply putt the fiction is - breakers of societies’ taboos are both the most susceptible and deserving of nature’s wrath. “The Plague” has always attacked first an individual’s body, then an entire societyrs reason. ’ Our initial characterization of an AIDS victim was one of the four groups: hemophiliacs, hypodermic drug users, Haitians and of course homosexuals. Add . to this group prostitutes and the iconography is complete. Four of the five groups are marginalized, stigmatised individuals living on the fringes of “acceptable” society. The fact that hemophiliacs found themselves in such company was blamed on their receiving “bad blood.” We’ve displayed as much stubborn resistance to any challenge to this picture as any supposedly less educated age before us. In actual fact, these “4-Hs” are at present in far less danger than the smug society condemning them. Incidence of both syphilis and

gonorrhea are down dramatically in the gay community. Both venereal diseases are on the increase in the heterosexual community. The significance of this fact is hard to understate. Both diseases are used to plot the “progress” of AIDS. Other venereal diseases show up in the system very quickly, whereas AIDS may lie dormant for five or more years. By seeing what groups are getting curable diseases today, authorities are getting an idea who will be coming down with AIDS a decade from now. A year ago, I wrote an article on this subject. I noted there were 460 reported cases of AIDS in Ontario alone: 226 of the victims were still alive. Today, there are 772 reported cases in Ontario; 294 are still alive. Putting such figures in perspective, Toronto has between 15,000 and 30,000 people who are HIV positive. It has been estimated that 30 people in the city contract the AIDS virus every day. In the September 23 edition of Imprint there appeared the “Campus Question” section. That week the question was “How has AIDS awareness affected your dating habits?” One woman said “I have fairly safe dating habits.” Two others said they were “monogamous” and one actually said “It doesn’t affect me. I’m not sexually promiscuous.‘* Old prejudices die hard. Strict boundaries between “us” and “them” continue in the popular imagination. We desperately try to put distance between ourselves and an imaginary group in order to retain our cherished belief in our imtiunity from’all tialamity. Lyn

Archaeologist -

by Lisa Imprint

Dillon etaff

At a Wilfrid Laurier University lecture October 13, Dr. Lawrence Geraty discussed recent archaeological discoveries at Tell el ‘Umeiri, Jordan, describing how his team of excavators from the Madaba Plains Project used archaeological findings to research the historical and environmental influences on inhabitants of this ancient Ammonite city. “Through careful work, we were able to tell uite a bit about the way people ‘f ived,” said Dr. Geraty, president and professor of archaeology at Atlantic Union College, Massachusetts. In his discussion, co-sponsored by the WLU Religion and Culture Department and the WLU Archaeological Society, Geraty used slides to show typical findings at ‘Umeiri. Geraty’s audience included many WLU archaeology students interested in working at ‘Umeiri next summer. Between 3000 BC and 500 BC, successive generations oft he ancient Ammonites built cities upon the same site. Excavators believe the Ammonites chose ‘Umeiri for its fortifiable hilltop position and its nearby natural spring, and have found evidence that ‘Umeiri is the biblical city of Abel-Keramim, mentioned in Judges 11:33. Findings at Tell el ‘Umeiri include mosaic floors from the Byzantine period, seals of the Ammonite Royal Family, stones bearing Egyptian hieroglyphics, pottery, sling stoI);es, arrowheads and human bones. Exca-

vators found tombs from the Roman period built from large stone blocks, resembling the tomb Christ was reputedly buried in. The 12 to 13 stones bearing Ammonite writing found at the site tripled the known Ammonite language sources. The ‘Umeiri kxcavation team of approximately 100 members represented 12 dif,ferent countries and included specialists

Geraty, who holds a PhD in Hebrew, Bible and Palestinian Archaeology from Harvard University and is associate editor of Biblical Archaeolagis t, pointed out the ‘Umeiri project is a superb educational dig which can help archaeology students put their studies into perspective. Students from various backgrounds are welcome to participate in the 1989 season of the ‘Umeiri project. The cost for a full season is $1600 US,, covering room, board, some travel in lorden and a mid-season trip to Aqaba. The King of Jordan and his brother, who take an active role in supervising archaeological activities in Jordan, visited the Tell el ‘Umeiri dig site. When the prince volunteered for a day of digging at the site, he was assigned’to work in a cistern so that Jordanian workers assisting at the site would not recognize him, The royal family has opened -opportunities for foreign archaeological teams to w’ork in Jordan by smoothing out administrative details and providing financial support. Excavations at Tell el ‘Umeiri have proceeded for two seasans since 1984. The Madaba Plains Project is sponsored by Andrews University in consortium with WLU, among other universities. A display of actual artifacts from the Tell el ‘Umeiri dig will be featured on the concoufse level of the Central’ Teaching Building at Wilfrid Lauder Universjty from Nov. 25 to Dec. 10, lQ8&

The first German History and Literature Symposium at UW, coinciding with Oktoberfest, was a great success. The conference held October 13-15 was a combined effort between the German and History departments, and featured international History and Literature scholars, speaking on German history and literature from 18481924, under the heading, Fact and Fiction. The three-day event was wellattended by an audience made up mostly of prqfessors and a sprinkling of graduate students, The high intellectual level of the conference was perhaps more of interest to specialists in this field, than to the general public. One History grad student

a success

*German conference commented that the conference sparked her interest: although, a background knowledge of the particular topics was needed for a better understanding, and moreover, a knowledge of German, since three of twelve lectures were conducted in German, as well as parts of almost every discussion following a lecture. The remarks about the conference were positive and the atmosphere was congenial, no doubt owing to the excellent organizational skills of Professors Karin J. McHardy and Gisela Brude-Firnau, of the History and German departments respectively.. Prof. Brude-Firnau says she was. impressed by the high quality of overall campus and food services at UW and commented that “we really have a rich campus,” a fact’ that came to light

throughout the symposium. Prof. Brude-Firnau also said she was pleased to note that UW’s Faculty of Arts is gaining international recognition. The conference ended in a somewhat heated debate between historians and literarians concerning the relationship between history and literature, and the definition of art, which basically led to the conclusion that both fields are interrelated. However, an historian probably treats literature more as an artifact, where& a literarian appreciates its aesthetic qualities, The interesting mixture of history, literature, and scholars thereof contributed to the immense success of the symposium, leading one professor from Toronto to remark, “it’s the best conference I’ve ever attended.”

meeting

Chile after the Octdber 8 Refere,ndum by Wilf

Ruland

Hector Abarca, a native of Chile, spoke .to a crowded Amnesty International meeting last Wednesday about the human rights situation in his country. Speaking eloquently and without notes, Abarca described the recent history of Chile, the October 8 referendum and the implications , it will have for his

country.

Abarca talked first ‘about Chile-‘5 history in the years before 1973 when the country became the first in the world to freely elect a communist government. This government, headed by Salvador Allende, was toppled in a bloody, CIA-sponsored military coup in 197% Over the following 15 years of military rule under the leadership of General Augusto Pinochet, Amnesty International and other human rights organizations compiled a heartbreaking list of human rights

violations in Chile. Thousands of innocent people were killed and tortured; many simply “disappeared.” In 1980 the military’ wrote a new constitution which “legitimized” the total control of the general and his henchmen over the country until 1988. At this time a referendum was to be held; the people of Chile were to decide whether or not they wanted General Pinochet to stay op as leader, The October 8 referendum was heavily stacked in favour of the general, but was ultimately a victory for the Chilean people. Abarca feels the official outcome bf the referendum; in which 54.7 per cent of the eeople voted”N0” against further rule by the general, considerably understated the opposition of Chileans to the military junfa. He noted that General Pinochet had used the, state-run media to spread his had bought votes r propaganda, where possible, and had been

able to intimidate many people who might otherwise have voted “no.” Abarca was pessimistic when asked whether the general would hand over power to the Chilean people.. General Pinochet remains in power until after general elections in late 1989. During that time, he remains in total control of the country; he can restrict the rights of his opponents and of opposition parties said Abarca, Even after t-he coming elections, Pinochet will retain a great deal of power. The 1980 constitution, written by the general and friends, allows him to take the post of commander-inchief of the army until 1997 and to remain head of the national security council. This council will have veto power over any legislation passed by the country’s congress. Pinochet is also assured a lifelong seat as a senator in the congress. The military will have the

Fegt ends, *back to normal

right to appoint a further nine members to the congress; which will only have 35 members in total. Obviously, the outcome of the referendum daes not guarantee a return to democracy for Chile, Abarca said, According to Abarca, the biggest challenge facing Chileans in the months ahead is the need to maintain the unity which enabled the opposition parties to win the referendum, Chile, which had a long atid proud tradition of democracy before the 1973 coup, has a plethora of political parties covering the political spectrum from far left to extreme right for which unity on any question does not come easily. Abarca, who fled Chile in 1974, was able to return for, the first time-last winter. He feels the amazing strength, patience, and oPtimism he saw then will enabli the Chilean people to re-

gain control over their country. The only obstacle is General Pinochet, who will have to relinquish power in the near future. Abarca and other Chileans in the audience predicted widespread unrest and bloodshed if the people of Chile are denied the freedom and democracy they desire. When asked how Canadians can help, Abarca praised members of Amnesty International for their work on behalf of Chileans. He mentioned that human rights abuses in Chile continue, as indicated by the deaths of several Chileans at the hands of the military in the days following the referendum. Abarca also noted that Canada continues to supply the Chilean government with military hardware. We should all publicize and question the Canadian government’s record on this issue during the current election campaign, he said.

As people build housing for the well off, more and more single parents, students and marginalized individuals are pushed onto the edge of society.

It’s on my list of priorities but what I can do as a federal representative is just to encourage or cajole the provincial and municipal aIrepresent tives. Imprint: What can be done to help the situation of underfunding in the province’s universities? McLean: The current government/inherited a situation from the Liberals which has the provincial governments giving the final authority on how education

government can influence the spending of the health care money by withholding funds when they feel they are improperly spent, as in the case of extrabilling.] McLean: Because at the time the current agreement was made the structure was that the provinces be quite free, Many of the provinces predicted that these very problems would arise but they were not listened to. Imprint: Are you in support of the government’s new refugee bill? McLean: When I was minister of immigration, I brought in a bill which tried to protect rights, and at the same time put the machinery in place to handle the prob-

lem. Unfortunately, I did not get support for it by many people who are now wringing, their hands about tougher legislation. When push came to shove, the groups who I appealed to turned and called for my resignation, The groups won’t look me in the eye now, I understand. They wanted perfection but politics is the art of what you can get. We are now getting less than we might have been able to get with a little support. Now I am choosing to be silent for the moment.

Thank-you -- appeals from Jack McClelland by Glenn Matthews Brock Press Canadian publishing and Jack McClelland go hand in hand. The man who was responsible for giving the likes af Leonard Cohen and Margaret Laurence their start spoke at Brock University’s Theatre to I a near capacity audience. McClelland spent much of his childhood in the St.Catharines area before enrolling briefly in engineering physics at the University of Toronto in 1940. In 1941 he joined the Royal Canadian Navy; retiring after the war as a Lieutenant Commander. He joined McClelland and Stewart full time in 1946 and by 1953 had worked his way up to President and Chief Executive Officer. He has often stated: “It is an amazing fact of life that you progress

much more quickly if your father happens to own the company.” Jack McClelland has devoted his life to becoming a “professional Canadian” and this national~istic sentiment is as evident in his business transactions as it is in his speeches. In the hour and a half that he spoke, McClelland touched on such topics as free trade, which he vehemently opposes, Canadian authors, and his childhood, which he fondly relishes, During his leadership, McClelland and Stewart became known as ‘the Canadian publishers’ and has published such authors such as Farley Mowat, Pierre Burton, Gabrielle Roy and countless others. McClelland’s appearance at Brock was sponsored by the School of Administration’s Excellence in the Eighties series.

Censorship:

PCs bills should be questioned Reprinted with permission from the Canadian Association of University Teachers Bulletin. The ongoing federal election hbs neglected to raise the Progressive Conservative Party’s now forgotten Bill C-54 which promised major reforms to the pornography legislation. The Tories have allowed the bill to die on the position paper but do they plan to resurrect the proposed legislation if re-elected? In the last three years the Tories have created a growing storm of protest about their proposed censorship legislation. Like the Liberals before them, they have proposed sweeping amendments to the criminal dode. The national press has ridiculed the puritanical nature of these bills. Art galleries, museurns, and libraries have held exhibitions. of cultural materials that would be banned tinder the legislation. The Book and Periodical Development Council devoted its annual Freedbm to Read Week in February 1988 t‘o an attack on the government’s legislation. Pierre Berton said the legislation Gould make Canada the laughing stock of the western world. It may, however, be that the Tory high command has been merely engaged in a cynical manoeuvre to appease its rightwing without actually doing anything concrete in the end. When the Liberals were in power, it was never very clear whether former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and the ministers involved, Jean Chretien and Mark MacCuigan, actually intended that anything should pass. It could be that they merely wanted to create the impression

with the right wing that they . were actually concerned about the issue and at the same time avoid offending the rest of the country by taking any action. All the various Liberal bills died on the order paper. The Tory bill has done the same. There are two drawbacks to

if it is intended never to pass, is a dangerous game. Eventually the rednecks will realize the disingenuousness of the federal government and really put on pressure to pass what they want. Fortunately the coalition against such laws appears at the moment to be growing in size and effectiveness. John Crosbie, then Minister of Justice, introduced the first Tory bill in 1986. It was widely attacked in the media for its vague language and puritanical view of sex. It died on the order paper, A new bill, C-54, was introduced by Minister Ramon Hnatyshyri in May 1987. It drew a distinction between erotica and pornography but did so in a puritanical and less-than-helpful way. There was no indication that the government attempted to provide a useful distinction between erotic materia1 and genuinely harmful pornography. The bill did, however, include two important safeguards. The first was that no action could be taken under the legislation except with the formal permission of the provincial attorney-general in question. This meant vigilante groups could not launch attacks themselves on university libraries or courses. The second was the provision of an artistic, educational or scientific defence, Such a defence is very important for the universities and for individual ,professors, but it still left them vulnerable to paying the costs of legal action to defend themselves, However, this defense was not applied to all aspects of the legislation, in particular not for a visual production which portrays a person who is or appears to be under the age of 18 engaged in sexual conduct. Pornography was defined so broadly that it could include many paintings, sculpture or theatrical depictions of adolescent sexuality in a variety of cultures including such works as Romeo and Juliet. It could prevent some clinical studies of teen-age sexuality or anthropological studies of coming of age ceremonies, Lest anyone think this absurd, it should be remembered the federal customs service in 1983,tried to prevent the

Nor is it clear how research on child pornography and the sexual abuse of children could be carried out in Canada in the future or how one could even depict the evils ,of the pornography industry. After all, Ontario banned Not a Love Story which was precisely such a film, Under the new legislation, it would not have a hope. It has been suggested that faculty members in performing arts, fine arts and film studies could attract criminal charges if they created visual materials with sexual themes, The definition of pornography could easily embrace works of art from Oedipus Rex to The Tin Drum. The minister has, on the one hand, denied there is a problem because the decision to prosecute would be in the hands of reasonable people who can be trusted not to launch absurd cases. The legislation also provided criminal sanctions for written as well as pictorial works, and once again there was no defence in the case of child pornography+ as defined in the legislation, or material that showed or appeared to show physical harm. The government argued it had narrowed this definition simply to cases where the written words incite or promote such conduct. Such conducj includes, for instance masturbation. On this definition Dr. Speck would have to be banned from Canada, So too would Lolita, The Decameron and The Satyricon, not to mention many of the works of the ancient Greeks such as Plato or Aristophanes since they could be interpreted as encouraging sexual conduct by those under eighteen. Many of those engaged in combatting so-called pornography are not primarily concerned about sleaze but, in fact, wish to deny adolescent sexuality and thus any representation of it and wish to ban authors who give realistic representation of contemporary society -witness the repeated attacks against the works of Margaret Laurence by these same groups. They should not be encouraged.

Equality? Equal Rights? What a joke. Only in the pampered world of the pseudo-civilized Western culture are those two terms grossly overused and likewise misunderstood, The way my oyerly warped mind works suggests to me that as soon as someone asks to be treated equally to those around her, she is already”positing the supposition that she is already not-equal , to those she wants to compare herself to. I’ve used the term she in order to make a specific point. Only in an advanced (or rather, civilized?) society is the luxury of fighting for something that, fundamentally already exists, thought of as significant. For my own point of view everyone is equal - or as equal as any group of individuals can be - atid the subsequent change in attitude is needed, not a cry for rights that I (naively assume already exist). While more than a few people wil’l be more than slightly pissed-off with me and my attitude, I would like it known there does exist a little smidgen of intelligent thought in what I’m saying, The women within a country such as Guyana have no concept of equality as understood in Western countries, for they assume they already exist, when in-fact they have no realistic hope tif ever attaining true parity in their status compared to the men of the country. It is the way that women are perceived within the patriarchal society that must be altered, for them to garner or at least any thoughts of attaining - the same amount of respect that is given to the men. And a change in attitude, espe-

Once alone she admitted that she had not really wanted to get married, but further her schooling. Her parents, though, wanted her to marry, After all she was 21- an age to settle down, and what would she need an education for since she would be much too busy raising the progeny that we would no doubt have.

Debbie’s parents agreed to having me as their new son-in-law. I, of course, declined. Had I said yes and Debbie declined the marriage would have taken place; within many Guyanese families marriage is within the parental realm only - as in this case, I met Anne while some friends and myself were on a drinking binge. Anne was our waitress come girl-Friday. Only 22 she had the worn out appearance af someone much older and once her looks had left her she would end up leaving the bar she worked in and move into the streets. The disappointing aspect of Anne’s life is, she is quite an intelligent woman who under different circumstances would have had the opportunity of using her knowledge instead of being a hooker. Now what does Debbie and Anne have in common with the majority of Guyanese women? They exist only to serve in whatever form it takes. Marrying someohe like Debbie would result in slave labour via a marriage certificate. And the only difference between Debbie and Anne: one has to be paid to have sex with- you. Which brings me back to what I started out with: equality. In Guyana there exists an extremely bizarre sense of harmony between the males and females, Women are comfortable in their role as servants, but that is because they have little idea that other opportunities exist to them and there is nowhere else to turn (given the current economic conditions of the country]. So what does this have to do with equality? You know, I

It has already been ratified by Canada, Egypt, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Uganda, Ukraine and the United States. It is expected to be ratified shortly by the European Community and its member States, and the Soviet Union. Together, these countries account for more than two-thirds of the estimated 1986 consumption of CFCs and halons controlled by the Protocol - a

requirement for the treaty’s entry into force, The Montreal accord will first freeze production of CFCs in 1990. It calls for reducing production and consumption of CFCs by 50 per cent of 1986 levels by mid-1998. This would be achieved in two stages: a 20 per

cent c,ut by mid-1993, and a further 30 per cent reduction by mid-1998. A new study, r’eleased by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on 26 September 1988, “paints an alarming picture” according to EPA Administrator Lee Thomas. He said “the depletion that has already occurred calls into question our earlier projections of future damage. We must go further than a SO per cent reduction in these chemicals in order to stabilize ozone levels.” The second meeting in the Hague (19-21 October) deals with the question of substitutes for CFCs. “In these fields, tremendous strides are being taken, said Talba. “Product development and chemical testing of substitutes are accelerating. There is a commitment at the highest corporate levels to phase down, and in some cases to phase out completely, substances which damage ozone in the shortest possible time.” 1

Fast food chains are phasing out the use of containers using CFCs. DuPont, the world’s largest producer of CFCs, says -it is investing $25 million in a plant in Texas to produce HFC-134a as a safe substitute for CFC-12, one of the most ozone-destructive chemicals. The three-day workshop on substitutes for CFCs and halons and alternative technologies, will review current developments in substitutes and alternatives for all uses of controlled substances, including refrigera-

The legal experts will prepare the documentation necessary for the entry into force of the Protocol, to be passed to the Depository the United Nations Secretary-General.

The two-day scientific meeting (17 and 18 October) brings together more than 70 of the world’s leading atmosphere scientists. It opens one year, one month and one day after the historic international agreement to protect the earth’s ozone shield from man-made chemicals was signed in Montreal (16 September 1987). The first meeting is organized by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and co-sponsored by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The others are sponbored by UNEP; all meetings are hosted by the Dutch Government. Participants will consider results of recent research on ozone in the atmosphere where observations confirm smaller amounts than were earlier calculated to be present. They will give particular attention to the seasonally occurring Antarctic ozone hole and its global implications and to similar but smaller holes observed in Arctic areas, Also to be discussed are the implications for global climate, Both the CFCs and ozone are important greenhouse gases and changes in their concentra* tion will be important to the global warming question.

The planes pass over the Labrador terrain as #low as 30 metres above the ground on their way to the bombing ranges. Since September of this year, over 230 Innu have been arrested, 150 in one day, after occupying runways at Canadian Forces Station Goose Bay to stop the milita’rization of their homeland. By October 12, seven Innu leaders and a Roman Catholic priest, facing charges of mischief, remained in jail because they refused to promise not to participate in further protest. In Montreal on October 5, 1980, protesters from the Alliance for Non-Violent Action gathered outside the Canadian Armed Forces Base at Longue Pointe to deliver a “statement of solidarity and resistance with the 84 arrested September 22nd.” The petition denounced the violation of the sovereign rights of the Innu Nation and the “crimifiality of war testing by NATO powers.”

Similar acts of resistance took place last September when a number of Innu lamilies occupied the bombing ranges to :amp and hunt, A press release dated September 14, 1987, explained the action: “This military use of Innu airspace and territory threatens our culture and [nnu way of life, The planned increases in the number of bombing ranges and Flights will spell the end of our life as a People.” For the ten day period of this occupation, the bombing ranges were closed and NATO airforces were unable to practice for war. Low-level flights start around the first week of September and continue for most of the fall trapping and hunting season until late No-’ wember.

cent (to 200 flights each day of the training season) if Canada gets the NAT? Tactical Fighter Weapons Training Centre (NTFWTC) for which the federal government nominated Innu land in July, 1984. NATO pilots from Canada, the U.S., the U.K., Germany and the Netherlands flew over 6,000 low-level flights out of CFS Goose Bay in 1987.

But, the choice _ i of Konya as the training centre would not put an end to the militarization of Goose Bay. A ten year, ‘multinational agreement between the governments of Canada’, the U.S., the U.K. and Germany regarding the “ad&inistrative arrangements covering the conduct of flying activities” that came into effect April 1, 1986, practically guarantees the continuation of lowlevel flying.

That agreement exists in spite of a promised federal environmental assessment to review military flying activities set for release in 1989, The review panel, formed in 1986 by the Federal Environmental Assessment Review Office [FEARO), has stated that “if it were demonstrated that such activity were causing [or were likely to cause] environmental or social m. impactsII *.that could .I , not be mitigated, the panel belleves tnat

cooperating fully- and had -_failed to ad. * vise the panel of new flying orders %posted at Goo& Bay. Barnes referred to a January 1987 letter of interim recom’ mendations sent bv the Dane1 to the DND which had noireceivid any reply, but Beatty dismissed the charges saying those in opposition to the low-level flights were opposed to military activity in general. The Minister clearly revealed that the government intended the panel merely ’ to placate opposition to the flights. The DND would not commit itself to a ten year agreement only to submit itself to a review that could put an end to the subject of that agreement, The role the panel’s final report plays in the selection of Goose Bay as the NATO centre, and whether the report is released before or after the NATO selection iS announced, will underscore the government’s commitment to the Innu people, the environment, and the environm.ental assessment process. Between 1965 and 1982 Royal Air Force Vulcan bombers trained over the

Innu homeland, and by 1981, after a DND report called the environmental and human impacts of low-level training negligible, the Newfoundland provincial government had given *its approval to low-level flying. The following year, the US, restored its facilities at Goose Bay to fully operational capacity. In October of 1983, RAF fighterbombers arrived to begin training and in 1984 ten more [German) Luftwaffe F-4 Phantoms joined those that had been operating at CFS Goose Bay since

1980. Also in 1984, and over Innu concerns for areas rich in wildlife and cultural significance, the federal and . Newfoundland governments approved a Luftwaffe request for two bombing ranges. The Canadian government then volunteered Innu land. tar the NATO Tactical Fighter Weapons Training Centre, During this period hunters, naturalists and bush-pilots had reported the abandonment of Caribou calving areas, vanishing Caribou herds and serious disruption of Caribou migration patterns. In October, 1984, Innu from five communities in Labrador and Quebec began a national campaign to stop the flights and the militarization of their homeland, The Canadian proposal for the NATO centre offers 32,000 square miles for “combat manoeuvering” and “another

86,000 square miles of varying terrain” for training, the operational advantage over Europe or Turkey being “enormous areas of unused airspace and territory.” According to the proposal, the “full scope of operations calls for up to 140 aircraft flying 200 sorties a day. Every two weeks would see about 1,500 transient military personnel training at the centre, supported by up to 1,700 permanent staff.‘.’ The proposal fails to note that the territory is used. The land in question has been traditional Innu territory for centuries. Today Innu families live off the land and its resources: the claim that the territory is “unused” is a lie. In fact, the Innu have never signed any treaties or entered into any landclaim agreement with any government before Labrador and Newfoundland entered Confederation or afterward. The Innu are the lawful owners of the land, l never having given up their right to selfdetermination nor the permanent sovereignty over their territory and its natural resources. International law and Canada’s Constitution both recognize the collective land rights of indigenous peoples.

The Innu themselves claim approximately 300,000 square kilometres of land in Labrador and Quebec. Forced settlement of the Innu during the 1960s failed to give the government “unused” territory: many families continued to live‘ on the land for large parts of the year, engaging in the traditional trapping and hunting activitiesthat allowed the culture to survive. Military overflights have had harsh effects on the environment, ,and on the people themselves. Francois Bellefleur a hunter from the Innu community of Unemeinshipit stated “there is some kind of pollution in the exhaust of these planes from the north. The sand on the beaches of the lakes is poisoned: the animals and fish are dying...” . In the initial environmental evaluation on the proposed low-level flight training dated February 1981, DND officials, like Major G. Landry of the Directorate of Airplanes in Ottawa, maintained that “Levels (of air pollution) are considered very mild by emission st andaids.” Still, in 1984 Etienne Lalo, an Innu hunter also from Unemeinshipit said that “the powerful exfall on to the surface of haust fumes... the water leaving an oily slick that looks like paint. Many people got,sick in the country this fall from drinking this polluted water.”

Lalo also spoke of continuous lowlevel flights over Innu campsites and the impact of such flights 0111children: “This f& they couldn’t awnplay at all becaussreey were toa afr&&~f’th.ejets.” But Dm diei& in&& ~mree quite difirent. “Opposition (by the Innu) to the proposed program will likely be used whenever it serves togain publicity or otherwise further their ends,” said Major Landry in 1981. Caribou herds have had their migration patterns disrupted by the flights, have had fewer live births, and have abandoned calving grounds. As early as 1984, the Northern Reporter in Labrador reported “the few caribou that have been taken in the Border Beacon area... had busted. eardrums. The implication being that the reason they stayed in the area was because they were deaf - and that they were most likely deafened by intense noise caused by low level flying.” . Citing, among other factors, the fact that “the Innu families, in particular the elders and the children, have been traumatized by repeated flights over their camps,.. for example children fleeing into the forest in fear of the flights, (and) pregnant mothers under nervous shock that might affect the life of the unborn children,” the Assembly of First Nations unanimously passed a r&aolution to “do whatever is necessary ,and possible to have the Canadian Government cease the low-leuel flights and military maneuvers and fulfill its duty to protect and respect the rights of the Innu Nation,”

If Goose Bay becomes the NATO Tactical Fighter Weapons Training Centre aircraft will fly low-level bombing runs 200 times each day. According to the Innu Declaration on the Demilitarization of Ntesinan “the military knows the location of our camps, and yet they continue to fly over at low altitudes.”

The resolution described the effect of low-level flights in these terms: “these military maneuvers are destroying a whole people and their way of life and the land is becoming empty and dead like a desert,” This is the definition of genocide, and this statement was issued November 1, 1985. A Canadian Public Health Association task force examined the Innu plight, and an International Federation of Human Rights study, released in December 1986, called the military flights “an infringement upon the fundamental rights of individuals and upon the collective rights of the Innu people” with “adverse effect on physical, mental and social well- being.” But John Crosbie, addressing a groupof NATO ambassadors in Goose Bay in 1986, belittled the Innu claim that sonic booms and low-level flight noises were harmful. The Newfoundland Tory MP said the jet noise was no worse than the noise produced by Sony Walkmans. No federal ban on Sony Walkmans ensued. Yet even the U.S. Navy, in 1974, coneluded that an air-combat range could not be established over North Carolina because of the unacceptable effect of sonic booms and jet noises on civilians and wil&ife. American jets are now training at Goose Bay.

A statement .brought to the Geneva based United Nations Human Rights Commission in 1983 by Innu representatives asserted “the lnnu do not believe that their economy and the integrity of their systems of self-reliance are compatible with the use of their homeland as a training area for the armed forces of foreign countries? A common argument used by proponents of the flights to justify the: violation of the Innu’s human rights portrays the militarization and possible NATO invasion in terms of economic benefits to the region. Major Landry, in the 1981 DND environmental evaluation, stated “DND policy is that any increase in foreign military training must have a positive socio-economic benefit on the local community.” The same vein of thought was echoed in 1983 when the mayor of

According to the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO), physical damage to the ears, usually a ruptured ear drum, is risked when exposure to sound levels over 140 decibels (dBA) occurs. Aircraft flying out of Goose Bay cause noise pulses that rise 40 dBA in half a second and have peaks exceeding 140 dBA when flying at or below 30 metres above the ground. Innu hunters have reported having their camps flown over more than 25 times in one day.

The final goal of Deep Strike is to wir a nuclear war. The existence of the stra. tegy alone is destabilizing, escalates tht arms race, and increases the chances oj nuclear war.

As well as testing nuclear weapons delivery systems, Goose Bay pilots practice the “surgical strikes” used on third world nations and leaders like Libya’s Kaddafy. (After the American raid on Libya, evidence came to light disproving any link between the Libyan government and the “terrorist” act for which the U.S. had launched the strike.

It was playtime at the Concert hall in the big TOE on Tuesday and Wednesday night. Our tickets said Michelle Shocked and Billy Bragg, but we were treated to, in fact, three acts the dtrct special guest being Australia’s own Weddings, Parties, Anything. (See Imprint Alumnus Tim Perlich’s feature elsewhere in this issue.]

WPA off to a boil Kinda Poguesey-folk-Clash thrash, Weddings were the most solid rockers of the evening, getting things off to a a boil in the sweltering heat of the hall. Playing largely from their debut album Roaring Days, they stormed the diverse crowd with an aural assault of accordian I!!) and multi-guitar, plus, they were the only act to have a skin-poundin’1 psychotic drummer. Obviously the loudest of the three-band bill, Weddings did justice to the working-class sot cial conscience raising propounded by the legacy of Bill Bragg. To be honest,. Tuesday was the first time we’d ever heard the wedding partiers; unlike most bands they had an immediate appeal and are more than welcome to play our living rooms, Lucky for you guys, they are rumored to be coming to Fed Hall soon. So hey, don’t take our

When opening for The Smiths at &iswood a few-pars back, most of the crowd used Bill’s set as an opportunity to go to the can, or to pass out. Now headlining, Bragg affirms his abilities as a consummate showman. The concert hall crowd was, without a doubt, totally mesmerized. The charming lad with his thick Brit accent led the thousands through his socialist travelogue, without ever becoming a furied Pied Piper leading his flock astray against the evil Bush’s of the world.

word for it, go see these dudes for yourself. Modest Michelle Shocked served up a double helping of humourous anecdotes and angSt-ridden diatribes against politits and injustice, Her minimalist acoustic I voice format somehow transported the crowd from the hallowed halls of the old Masonic Temple, and took us to her intimate campfire. Modest, bashful, unable to repress a smile, she was obviously dtlighted by the thunderous applause that followed each of her tales. If ou’re a metal pig and think it’s ii oss when everyone screams their stage-banged heads off and I the walls begin to shake, then you would’ve been lost with Michelle; during her songs, I’d never heard a crowd so quiet, so intent on hearing each word: Perhaps everyone wasn’t there just for a party.

Her minimalist passion was first captured on her debut LP The Texae Campfire Tapes. Recorded on a walkman, it_‘s now available on vinyl, cassetie, and (gulp) Compact Disc. Schocked is a story teller, and she did it best with Anchorage the new single from the new album Short Sharp Shocked, Well, I’m not about to tell you second-hand Michelle Shocked stories; buy her albums to hear ‘em yourself. She came, she made a thousand friends, she humbly left, Michelle returned for her encore with Billy. Looking like he’d stepped out of a GQ mag, Bill strutted to the front of the stage,

Showcasing about half the tracks from his newest LP Worker’s Playtime, William mixed in a healthy dose of bsides, hit singles, and covers. The best of the evening was his historical revision of Costello’s Oliver’s Army. Bragg’s Oliver North’s Army was, like his DC. . Remix of Days Like These, proof of his role as a mastercraftsman in the human language. All of his songs were so fresh in their delivery - with spontaneou3 lyric changes and em-phasis / de-emphasis on guitar - that the tunes were like new, et familiar friends; the sort that .6 orrow stuff from you and split, If anyone stumbles across a bootleg of this concert, I’ll pay cash money+ The only place Bragg could play a concert that was just like the album, would beina studio alone. The songs were the medium, the man was the message. Pals Cara Tivey (looking very pregnant), and Wiggy appeared, disappeared, and reappeared to play piano and bass on various tracks, as well as supplying backing vocals. They fleshed some songs out more and, at times gave Bill a chance to put his guitar to rest and dance about. Another highlight was a crowd-participation version of A New England, and when Bragg told the crowd to sing the chorus.... they sang it! Everyone! USually you go through this embarrassing c’mon I can’t rleczaar yooou crap, but not this time; but hey, we were wrapped around his finger.

Although loud, the wild ones did not use volume to cover any lack of musical talent: these guys can play as well, if not better, than most bar bands. However, it isjust rock and roll, no matter how well they do it. So if they have a drawback, it would have to be that they present nothing that is new: they may be fun, but their style and their sound lacks novelty. Who cares? I only men‘tion it because I have heard this complaint leveled against them, but novelty is not a necessar part of music as long as it sti P1 entertains. And these guys entertain,

Outdde ThaGmtnis the second album not to be released domestically by Virgin, Kilbng Joke’s distributor, Despite daily radio support from CFNY over the last five or six months, neither the singles America, My Love Of This Land, nor the album are widely and affordably available [ie domestic]. The first time this happened was for their Nightime offering; a dark and brilliant work containing the club hits Lave Like Blood and Eighties. At that time Nightims was their most commercial and ap ealing offer and it’s scarcity on t K is side’ of the ocean is a total mystery. Their next album Brighter Than A Thouwnd SUM, was so bound by formulated song construction that it’s one of the few albums I have ever sold. It was unendyrabie, but Virgin saw fit to domestically release it. Few groups have such an erratic relationship with their labels to merit mention. That was then, and now KJ have seen fit to offer their seventh LP to the world and, according to Jaz Coleman spokesgod and mortal focus of divine dementia, this will probably be the last Killing LP as Jaz fully expects the worldto

When Jaz sings, “Dent lose your sense of humor” on Unto The Ends Of: T/t6 Earth, he sounds like he’s doing a benefit

Song structure on this plate is practically the antithesis of the slop on Brighter. The meter, or pace, or whatever damn musicians call it - is terribly disjointed and unpredictable. A bit difficult to get used to at first, but after you’ve been run through the ropes you’ll realize this album thunders, and you can thunder with it. America, the first single and album opener is brilhant. The first time I heard it I snapped off the radio and planned to give up on Jaz and company. My mistake; the cheesey synth. that harkens to the stupidity of BLVD’s Never Give Up and the

On and on, past “the weeping god in the face of a child” - Tiahuanaco, and final1 , Outside The Gate, where %a Tvation is drawn from our. childhood dreams.” Here Jaz stands, a piano symphony recedes and a p8le light washes upon his face.

Ian Thomas has done it. He put his new album &ally into the hands of an outside producer. After many years of working alone, mainly at his impressive home studio, he wanted what he describes “the creative experience that comes from someone else’s input into my music.” The result is a polished and pleasant album, but one that lacks, in my opinion, some of the pizazz and originality of Thomas’ earlier work. For some reason - one that could be attributed to my personal taste and the length of time I haven’t heard an Ian Thomas original most of the pieces on this albuy sound very similar.

The dynamic fanfare that opens the new Level 42 album Staring At The Sun was touted by bassist Mark King as “heralding the next stage of Level 42”; the music that follows backs that statement up. Staring At The Sun is a departure from any prior music th6 band has mad& Not a radical departure, mind you, but a safe, noticefible one. Perhaps this new Level 42 can be attributed to its new line-up’ the first line-up change since the group’s creation in 1880. The brother team of guitarist Boon and drummer Phil Gould has

Lines from certain songs kept resounding in my head after I first listened to the album. From the title cut Levity: “Put somb levity back into your life / Take the disillusion away ! F?ut away the things that go bump in the night / That pull you under.” And from Only Believe: “I only believe what I see I do believe ! All the rest is only make believe ! Give me something I can touch that I can feel.“, Those words could easily come from the mouth of Thomas’ Modern Man, who reveals: “I got so much education that my head’s overgrown / But my body’s real small from every chemical known .. . If I go crazy if I’m too much alone / I can take some of my cells and send away for a clone.” And along more metaphysical lines, Thomas wrote Let the Stone Roll: “When you’re talking to the spirits / Are you really talking to yourself / Or casting stones down a wishing well.”

considerably different pair of musicians: guitarist Alan Murphy and drummer Gar Husband, The result is a muc it more guitar-oriented record, Husband, who collaborates with King on the exce tional Tracie, has been descri & ed as more explosive than his predecessor; his impressive technique fall along lines of Simon Philli s and Manu Katche more than t R e predictably straight ahead rock drumming that Level 42 featured for eight years.. His tasteful drumming impressively compliments King’s toned-down bass work. Lyrically, it’s still Level 42, partially because although Boon iin’t featured musically, he cowrote six of the nine tracks. That means the songs deal either with failing or aspiring love, Also inare their usual, simple ’ cluded protest songs which never really say a hell of a lot but prove the group’s good intentions. The new musicians seem to have brought new influences with them. One can sense traces of everyone from Frankie Goes To Hollywood - don’t worry, not enough to scare off potential record bu ers - to, believe it or not, Cree d ence ClearwaterRevival, _ Keyboardist Mike Lindup offers his only one-writer effort with the suprisingly impressive Silence, an almost jazzy ballad that revears the influence of fusion keyboard player Wally Badarou. The only tie with their older, progressive roots would be the seven and a half minute Man, which varies from an offbeat rhythms to the mourning, atmospheric ending, and features the brilliant Krys Mach on soprano sax. Keeping with tradition, the album’s weaker songs will vault straight to the Top 10 and probably score the band dubious positions on K-Tel’s Hit Explosion album. But don’t hold that against them - Staring At The Sun is an impressive, interesting effort by a matured Level 42.

Suddenly, the cracks turned to applause and I could swear I heard sniffles when they started the one about the striking nurses. When they got to the wood-block part in Tex Morton’s

group’s beginings: “Y’know, it was really hard in 1983 to get anyone interested in the kind of music that we do now. I mean, no one had heard of the Pogues or anyone of their kind so I had to scrape up anyone I could. I’ve always liked the Byrds and there was this guy who played guitar who was interested in The Church. I said, ‘If you like The Church, you’d really like the Byrds!’ As a result, the Byrds became one of the group’s early reference points, The great thing,about the Byrds was that aIth6ugh they were a folk-rock band, they weren’t self-conscious about their music as many of their British counterparts that came later like

Fairport Convention and especially Steeleye Span, Steeleye always seemed to be very self-conscious of their own folk and rock aspects... like ‘Let’s rock up some old tunes, maaan!’ It’s that conscious rocking up of things which I can’t stand. For much of that British folk movement, the ‘way they played .was just so stiff. The Byrds, on the other hand,, took everything so casually. It didn’t matter if they played a Dylan song or something traditional’ they always sounded like the Byrds... they never had to go out of their way.” Some less imaginative m&c hacks have WPA pegged as Pogues clones. They both have been known to strike up a sea shanty now and then but there is an obvious difference in approach. - “There has been a lot of stink in Australia with us being compared to the Pogues, not to say that there aren’t similarities but having an accordian in the band doesn’t make us the Pogues.

However, Michael Thomas makes it clear; they don’t actively seek the-m out. “That song was not written from personal experience ‘cause, obviously, I wasn’t in that war. It was taken from the point of view of what a friend suffered during the war. It just jumped out, y’know. It wasn’t as if I sat down one day and said ‘hmmm.:. let’s see if I can write a song about the people that were rejected for National service.’ I don’t like to plan songs.’ The problem with many bands who perceive themselves as being ‘political’ in the protest way is that they try too hard to cover all the bases, y’know..,” “We’ve got one about unemployment, one about the yup-1 pies, so we better do one about nuclear war.” They’re not talking about themselves anymore. I’d just rather write stories, albeit’ very loaded stories. “There’s a problem with politics in music. People think it was something that was started dur: ing the sixties in Greenwich Village.

Blackwell wasted no time in signing her, and now this, her debut album, and Bring.Me Some Water, the first ‘single, are getting a lot bf attention. Why, I have no idea. It’s hard to figure out what all the fuss is about. Etheridge likes to tell interviewers that she’s been writing songs since she was a teenager. It’s not surprising, then’ that too

Eiheridge also ‘likes to tell interviewers her songs are all autobiographical. If that’s true, she’s either writing all her songs about one relationship’ or else this girl’s been dumped more often-than the garbage.

But Bring Me Some Water is the exception, not the rule, Melissa Etheridge falls apart because Etheridge is almogt incapable of writing memorable songs.

Amusing light opera kills germs on contact by Rena& Sander-Regier Imprint staff Operetta love stories are always amusing; Emmerich Kalmman’s Gypsy Princess, presented last weekend at the Centre in the Square by the K-W Symphony Orchestra (guest conductor Al-exis Hauser) and singers from the Toronto Operetta Theatre, was no exception. First, true love - between an aristocrat, Prince Edwin, and a cabaret singer, Sylva Varescu has to overcome difficultobstacles: the opposition of Edwin’s family, who has betrothed him to another aristocrat, Countess Stasi; and the reluctance of j Sylva, who does not want to

complicate Edwin’s life. Love triumphs when Edwin’s father discovers that his own wife was once a song and dance girl named “High-ste,pping Hilda”; he can’t very well disapprove of his son following in his

the orchestra, the operetta itself went through a ponderous, very long first act, with many drawnout, made-for-eye-wandering phrases. Luckily the well-meaning and kind-hearted hedonist Feri, masterfully portrayed by David Walden (Old Deuteronomy in the Toronto production of Cats), was there to save the act. He kept potentially dull scenes refreshingl jolly. C r risten Gregory, as the smash cabaret singer Sylva Varescu, didn’t quite pull off her role. Her voice was nice enough, but her Sylva lacked flair and provocativeness. Guillermo Silva-Marin brought across a more believable

Prince Edwin - formal in gesture (as befitting an aristocrat), yet passionate in emotion. SilvaMarin had the best accent of the whole bunch (he pronounced “Budapest’* in true Hungarian manner], and the best singing voice - strong, clear and full of expression. Henry Ingram, in the role of carefree, womanizing Count Boni, added much-needed comic relief through his antics in the second act. He got betteir and better as the plot thickened. Lisa Kulchycki (stepping in for Linda Maguire) played a wonderfully spirited and witty Countess St asi, Honourable mention goes to the orchestra which sounded terrific when it played by itself, but more than once went out of sync with the singers - an unfortunate technical mishap. Of all elements in the operetta, the brightest stars were the song lyrics. They contained many a gem which kept my mind from wandering too far during the

“Women are twice as strong as men,” environment) s . The speaking lines weren’t bad either. Aristocrats are said to “wear white gloves to go to bed in.” Count Boni, finding himself in hot water, says to the person responsible for his predicament, “I’m as innocent as a lamb, but it’s because of you that I’m up to here in the mint sauce,” The boobie prize goes first to the set design, then to choreography. The latter wasn’t that bad for the singers with lead roles, but the chorus, at times, came across as downright wooden, Not a gI’eat performance, the Gypsy Princess was saved by a few good performances which made it, despite its faults, fun to watch.

Cat’s Eye, Atwood’s:

0RememberaWe Cat’s Eye by Margaret Atwood MClelland & Stewart Ltd. 421 pages by Derek Weiler Imprint staff For the follow-up to her 1986 blockbuster The Handmaid’s Tale, Margaret Atwood has returned to more conventional ground. Shying away from explicit political commentary, Atwood’s new novel Cat’s Eye is an intensely personal look at the life of a middle-aged female artist. While this represents something of a thematic retreat for Atwood, the novel stands on its own terms as an excellent examination of one womanls psyche. Elaine Risley, the protagonist, is a successful Vancouver ,painter who is returning to Toronto (where she spent the first thirtyodd years of her life) for a retrospective of her work. Desperately unhappy, Elaine is - haunted by memories of her life in Toronto. Cat’s Eye takes the form of an interior monologue in which Elaine wanders the city where she grew up, reliving her experiences there: The narrative proceeds in two parallel lines: one follows Elaine as she grows from child to teenager to adult; while the other traces the adult Elaine’s thoughts in 1980s Toronto, as she gradually becomes less anxious and more secure, The book’s key concept is the nature of time

as inescapable; Elaine’s past and present seem to melt into each other until they are one and the same, or might as well be. The “cat’s eye” of the title refers to a glass marble Elaine had as a child, which seems to symbolize all the secrets of her past. Elaine Risley is a brilliantlydeveloped character, life-size and completely sympathetic. The reader can chart the growth of her personality through the evolution of Atwood’s narration. Elaine’9 childhood memories, for instance, are baldly stated in Atwood’s flat, richly ironic tone. Despite the first-person narration, Elaine’s personality takes

Time is inescapable control of the narrative only gradually, reflecting her growing independence and strength of will. This is parallelled by Elaine’s affair with her art teacher, her moving away from home, her marriage to a fellow art student, and - in the culmination of Elaine’s growing strength of will - her decision to leave her husband for Vancouver. It is her childhood memories that torment Elaine the most, As a child, Elaine had been tormented ruthlessly by Cordelia, one ‘of her playmates. Yet years later, as a teenager, Cordelia became Elaine’s best friend, almost pathetically eager to please. Eventually, Cardelia ends up in a

of things past

mental home after a suicide attempt. It is her memories of Cordelia-the-tormentor that Elaine cannot come to terms with. When she begins her career as a painter, Elaine depicts the significant objects of her childhood - a deadly nightshade flower, the mother of one her playmates/tormenters without even knowing why. It is only when she returns to Toronto that the full weight of Elaine’s memories come crashing upon her, By necessity, though, not all of the other characters are as fully developed as Elaine, and the book is not without its imperfections. Cordelia, for instance, remains a cipher for much of the book; she has to, because the obscurity of her motives is the main source of Elaine’s emotional torment. The lack of sympathetic male characters, a bias that has plagued every Atwood novel except Life Before Man, crops up here as well (although it is perhaps not as severe, since Elaine is apparently happily married to a second husband, whom the reader never sees). Also, the “mystical experience” at the climax of the book that helps Elaine come to terms with her memory of. Cordelia is too vague to be really effective. While The Handmaid’s Tale was a ground-breaking book, Atwood seems to be consciously stepping backwards with Cat’s Eye; there is nothing really new here, Indeed, several passages concerning the teenage Elaine’s

Feline vision and wisdom dating habits - are lifted right out of an earlier Atwood short story, “Hurricane Hazel,” while the child-Elaine’s fear of perverts lurking under a bridge harks back to Lady Oracle. What Cat’s E e resembles most, though, is tE e Edible Women and Life Before Man, Atwood’s earlier novels of tortured, confused women. This is not necessarily a complaint; it’s hard to find fault with Atwood’s return to themes she explores so brilliantly, What ‘Cat’s Eye does best is present the inner mind of an un-

happy woman with remarkable sympathy and depth. Atwood’s narrative skills remain undimmed, and she does a particularly good job of portraying the relationship between the past and the present, which is the major concern that distinguishes this novel from her earlier ones. Elaine’s family life, and the fates of her brother and parents, are portrayed with particular sensitivity. If Cat’s Eye seems like a retreat after the breakthrough of The Handmaid’s Tale, it is still an excellent book from one of Canada’s major novelists. .

staff

The best description of Reagan I have encountered Knelman saves for the last page of this book: “An idiot made for the electronic box that made him president ,” But America, God and the Bomb is not a look at .Reagan gaffes and misquotes, Knelman’s book is a frightening, and overwhelmingly documented look at the result of nearly eight years of freedom and democracy under Ronald . Reagan, Knelman is as concerned with nuclear war as Reagan is himself. Knelman just wants to prevent it. Central to the insanity of the Reagan nuclear doctrine are three essential elements. The Soviet Union is an evil empire and must be suffocated by means including nuclear war if necessary: a nuclear ‘war can be won, and in Reagan’s words “I sometimes believe we’re heading very fast for Armageddon.” The book tackles a number of strategic myths including the legendary bomber and missile gaps and uses the Reagan administration’s own words to dismiss easily the myth of Soviet nuclear forces superiority. Weinberger, pressed on whether he would exchange American nuclear forces for the “vastly superior” Soviet arsenal, adamantly refuses. , The domination of the presidential agenda by the religious right is clear and very disturbing: “The regular meetings of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the Pentagon are often attended by fundamentalist figures invited to

look at

discuss biblical issues,” Knelman writes. The fundamentalist preacher Jerry Falwell, a close friend of Reagan and author of a book entitled Armageddon and the Coming War with Russia, is only one of many who have brought the belief of religious rapture to bear on the nature of superpower relations. Knelman describes a cabinet where “for key members of the administration, Armageddon is the basis of policy.” Knelman quotes Howard Phillips, director of the Conservative, Caucus political action -comrnittee, to reveal the teeth behind the Reagan revolution: “We organize discontent, and must prove our ability to get revenge on people who go against us.” The Nazis blamed the Jews. Reagan proclaims a nuclear war “winable.” This belief be-

people who condemn the Soviet government as evil and totalitarian are willing ‘td’ unleash nuclear holocaust to punish the Soviet populace who, by the conservatives own definition of totalitarian, have no say in the workings of that “evil empire.” Reagan’s hate for the Soviet Union is only more troubling as he is pushed on through each stage of his agenda by forces as disparate as a brain-dead electorate, a complicit corporate media, and an entirely accommodating northern ally. Knelman’s chapter on Canadian complicity is nothing less than shocking. Overflights of nuclear armed B-525, port ‘visits by nuclear armed ships, and cruise testing are blatant examples of Canadian complicity. Norway, a member of, NATO, refused to test the cruise: Canada tests the

And while Reagan paints himself as a peacemaker, the malice of his words draw the true pic“Communists are ,not ture: bound by our morality* They say any crime is moral if it advances the cause of socialism... I wouldn’t trust the Russians around the block, They must be laughing at us because we continue to think of them as people.“ Knelman makes it clear the same

cruise claiming it is aNAT obligation. But, our helpfulness does not end with cruise tests, Knelman notes: “It is simply undeniable that Canadian uranium is used to manufacture nuclear weapons.” Knelman writes that “Canada hosts eighty-four military sites which are related to the U.S. nuclear weapons system.” The essence of Canada’s policy toward the United States he sums up this way: “The role Canada plays in U.S. defense is intentionally vague and open-ended. Canada, for many years, has no real strategic policies, other than the policy of accommodating and never embarrassing its powerful neighbour to the south.” Reagan’s nuclear legacy is more than George Bush and a number of deranged born-again officials, The technology in place

As usual the Festival of Festivals presented far too many movies for one (or even, two) persons to digest in its ten days. There were a few rocks amid the many diamonds, and ‘there were a few we&hyped movies which didn’t live up the expectations. Nonetheless, for the movie addict - armed with a schedule, a cushion to sit on, a theatre map wd a decent pair of running shoes - the Festival was a little slice of heaven. I-Iere are capsule reviews of some of the more notable movies we caught during the Festival.

chic TV, Derek Jarman has gained a reputation for the denaity and beauty of his cinematography and the forcefulness ofhis imagery. Last of England is fascinating in that it has no plot; yet, it is unified by its fiercely critical examination of life in Margaret Thatcher’s England. The movie is masterful in its complex use of jarring, rapidfire editing and urgent imagery. Jarman effortlessly mixes documentary footage, nostalgic home movie clips and stark, tinted scenes of violence and oppression to create a sense of horror. The different cinemagraphic ,rhythms of the various sources are mixed and manipulated to brilliant purpose. Though the film is more notorious for the scene in which a naked man rolls around on top of ti Union Jack with a soldier in full terrorist uniform [balaclava included), it stands tall on its own merits as a political statement and a3 a work of art. Bruce Weber [USA, 1988) The infuriating thing about Let’s Get Lost is that while it claims to be about Chet Baker, the legendary musician, director Bruce Weber spends the majority of the movie examining.Chet Baker as junkie-icon.

In 1971 Marget Czenki was im‘prisoned for a five year term for a politically motivated bank robbery. Since then, she has written a variety of articles on female prison conditions, This film tells the story of seven women imprisoned for various crimes. Barbara, the main character, is kept in solitary confinement for the first 2 years of her sentence. Eventually she is put in contact with other inmates. The women she is imprisoned with have trouble relating to each other because their hatred and jealousies get in the way. We get a glimp,se of their childhood memories and the reasona why these women have been imprisoned. Ms. Czenki originally hired a company to film her story but soon discovered that she didn’t like what the were doing.

,I V-ball .Warriors good by Glenn Hauer Imprint staff

After a frustrating two years of silver medals in tournament play, the Waterloo Volleyball Warriors took the gold medal at the Brock Invitational last weekend. The tournament also gave the Waterloo players a look at their OUAA competition, as all of the eight teams participating were from Ontario. Waterloo faced five different sides, including traditionally strong teams such as Toronto and Western. The tournament format conaisted of two pools of four teams playing in a round-robin. The top two from each pool went on to the semifinals. In the intrapool play, Waterloo faced Laurier, Queens, and Toronto. The Warrior attack was too much for Laurier and Queens. Against the Golden Hawks, the game scores

were 15-5, and 15-4. With Queens, the outcomes were 15-S and 15-7. , Toronto is one of the Ontario teams expected to give Waterloo some trouble. In the first game, won 15-10 by the Warriors, Waterloo exhibited a strong attack. However, the defence was a little scrambly and unorganized. Toronto took advantaie of some Warrior ,mistakes in the second game and defeated Waterloo 159 13.

Coach Rob Atkinson was pleased with the effort of his squad. The new passing system ran well’ but when troubles occurred, the warriors went back to a conservative high ball game to get back on track. Atkinson was not overly impressed with team defence; yet, he noted, “that we haven’t really practiced that as - a unit. Even though we took Queens quite easily, the games

The slaughter by Mike McGraw Imprint Staff * In most sports, a game between the Waterloo Warriors and the Laurier Golden Hawks is billed as The Battle of University Ave.. In football+ it’s known as The Slaughter of University Ave. Before a scant crowd of onlookers at Seagram’s Stadium on Saturday afternoon, the Hawks reaffirmed this title as they thumped the lowly Warriors, 280. The win thrust the Hawks into .second place in the OUAA with a 5-1 record. Meanwhile+ at the other end of the standings, the defeat ran Waterloo’s consecutive string of losses to 29, a futility streak which is now over four years old. At O-6, the Warriors are mired in the darkest depths of the OUAA basement, The Warriors are now down to their last chance of 1988 to break their losing jinx. Tomorrow afternoon (Saturday) they travel to Windsor to play the Lancers, in a final attempt to salvage some pride in this season of hu.miliat ion. “If we can play a whole game, even to the extent that we played in the first half against Laurier, - then we have a chance,” said UW coach Chuck &&Mann.” I hope .the players will be hyped, this game has got to be a good incentive.” He also noted it will be the last game for Larry Vaughn, Bohdan y;$chuk and possibly Dave Through some quirk 0; nature+ the Warriors managed to hold the high powered Hawk offence at bay throughout the first half. It was relatively close at halftime, as WLU took an fl-olead to the dressing room. But it was the same old plotline from weeks past - the defence holds UW in the game while the offence sputters; eventually, the defence begins to wear thin when the offence is only on the field for one set of downs.

“The &fence played well, but then they got tired from being on the field for so long++’ agreed McMann, Although the Warrior offence showed some faint vital signs in the first half, they were generally the same sickly crew they’ve been all season. UW gained just 131 yards with pivot Brian Lenart back at the helm. Lenart hurled 16 passes+ completing six for a measly 21 yards. He also fumbled twice and tossed one in; terception, all of which translated into 15 WLU points. Halfback Orville Beckford \;vas once again the only notable performer on offence. But even this didn’t go right for Waterloo - he sat out the second half after being struck in the back with a helmet. Beckford romped for 42 yards on IO carries. “A great effort by a couple of kids covered up for the rest,” commented McMann.” Orville covered up for some guys’ mistakes. Lenart has worked hard but he lacks experience. This was one of his better performances,” The Hawks managed to build just a 1-O lead in the first quarter on a 59-yard ICBM punt by-Mike Armstrong which Vaughn downed in the end zone. Laurierpivot Rod Philip drove the Hawks deep into UW territory as the opening quarter ended. But on the first play-of the second+ Warrior linebacker Bob Casey picked off a Philip rocket at the UW 27 yard line. The Hawks blocked a Jim Harding punt on the next set of downs and recovered it on Waterloo’s 27. But Casey came through again, sacking Philip on second down to squash the drive. Steve Rsiney booted a 3% yard field goal to put the Hawks up 4-a On- the first play after the following kickoff, Lenart and Beckford crossed signals on a lateral causing a fumble’ which linebacker Jon Graffi scooped up and returned * 32 yards for a major, Armstrong hit the conversion to make it 11-O. #*

still lasted over an hour and a half. The side-out ball was awesome, nobody can stop us there. Unfortunately, we have the same problem stopping opposing side-out ball right now.” The next two weeks are being spent practicing positional play in defence. The Warriors faced Brock in the semifinal.’ The hapless Badgers were demolished: 15-3, 15-3. Everything was looking good and victory seemed to be easily attainable. Western was the only team in the way, a traditional rivalry that promised an exciting championship final. Waterloo jumped to a quick 80 lead in Game 1, but then let up, giving Western a chance to get into the game. It was only a realization on the part of the Warriors to get going that enabled a 15-10 victory. s The - first part of Game 2 was played very closely, and

as gold1

again Waterloo opened up a lead. Yet again, the Warriors let up, with both blocking and service reception breaking down. The killer instinct was not there, the players knew they could beat Western easily, but just weren’t doing it. Playing badly, Waterloo lost the second game of the match 18-14. The real Warriors showed up in Game 3, with the Waterloo attack engulfing Western 15-5. The team had won their first gold in two years and it “felt good to win.” Overall, Coach Atkinson was pleased “with the hustle, and the varied attack what pdwer, offside+ and middle all being utilized.” The strongest player in the final was Scott Smith, with 20 kills in 28 attempts and only 1 error. Smith ended up with 43 kills and 8 stuff blocks for the tournament.

The- Waterloo defence stood tall late in the second half, stopping Philip and the Hawks on three more drives, including a stuffing of swift halfback Andy Gcchini on, a third down gamAs the second half began, the Warriors were still in the game. One play changed all that. One play into the second half, Lenart tried to lateral the ball to a player lying on his back. WLU’s Fred Grossmgn recovered the fumble on UW’s 27, Although the Hawks only managed a single point out of the turnover (a %-yard single by Rainey on a field goal attempt], it deflated any confidence Waterloo had gained from the first half. “I thought we’d play well in the second half, but we self destructed,” lamented *McMann. “When we fumbled that ball, the guys said ‘aw shoot, here we go again.+ They still have that attitude that when one thing goes wrong they start believing that they can’t win.” The Hawks promptly gave the Warriors sufficient reason to believe they wouldn’t win. On the

next drive, WLU used a l&yard roughing the passer penalty to move from a second down on UW’s 26, to first down on the 11. Burly fullback Luc Gerristen barrelledin on the next play for a touchdown. Rainey’s convert made it 18-O for Laurier. Later in the quarter, Rainey added a 22yard field goal to’widen it to 22: 0. Another Lenart faux pas set up the final WLU touchdowu. The Hawks’ Geoff Belanger intercepted an errant Lenart ass deep in UW territory an B returned it to Waterloo’s l&yard line, One play later, Cecchini jaunted untouched through a gaping hole in UW’s defence for the major. Rainey addded the conversion. Led by Philip, the Hawks racked up 356 yards in offence. Philip completed 18 of 34 passes for 170 yards. Armstrong led the receiving corps with four catches while Cecchini rushed 14 times for 57 yards. Despite what has been another nightmarish season, McMann feels the Warriors have shown improvement in what was entit led their reconstruction sea-

Also impressive was offside hitter Lech Bekesza, with 11 kills in 17 attempts and I error. Middle hitter Steve Heck came up with 6 demoralizing stuff blocks in the match, a difficult feat at this level of play. However+ “the key to the match was Jim Mckinnon, who came in and served three straight aces with his spike serve,” - .’ The competition in Ontario seems to be weaker this year, but Waterloo must not get too loose in the matches against these teams. Their first real tests will be against Western ’ Canadian teams such as Calgary, Winnipeg, Manitoba, and UBC.

“You’ve got to have some wins,” replied McMann. “But we haven’t been blown out by anybody yet - they’ve all known they’ve been in a football game. I’ll make a tape to show the kids when I go around to the high schools - I’ll hi-lite the defence.” McMann says that Dave “Tuffy” Knight, the Warriors sidelined head coach is also frustrat ed. “Tuffy’s frustrated+ but he sees some improvement. What we have to do is go out and get some more players.” McMann is filling in for Knight, who suffered’s heart attack during a September 3 exhibition game against Laurier.

’ Schneider

goes -on rampage

Warriors nick Titans by Mike McGraw Imprint staff Pre-season basketball often resembles a pick-up game at the local playground. Friday night’s ’ exhibition game at the PAC between the Waterloo Warriors and the K-W Titans was no exception. This doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth watching. For, the third consecutive year, the annual opener for Warriors was decided by a single point, And for the second straight year, the Warriors squeezed out a cliffhanger, 81-80, over the gritty men’s league team. Waterloo’s fifth year Tom ’ Schneider, now captain, proved right from the opening tip-off that he enjoys his new leadership role. Schneider’s play was a model for any rookie to follow he drained 33 points, going a-for8 from three-point range and T-of-8 from the charity stripe. He also grabbed seven rebounds and was on the floor for,a whopping 35 minutes. “Tom was very poised out there tonight - he looked very comfortable,” said Coach McCrae. Schneider’s sniping from the perimeter made up for the Warriors nonexistent front court, Waterloo scored most of its points from the outer reaches of the floor and on fast breaks. Aside from Schneider, point guards Chris Troyak and Peter Sawchuk added 13 and II points respectively. That adds tip to 67 points by three players under 6’3”. The Warriors were also outrebounded, 35-33. “I don’t think we have a great inside game,” commented McCrae, “We haven’t had a chance to work on playing against a zone defence yet, and that gave us a lot of trouble. 1 think we should have got together with the Titans and made a rule - no zone defenses until after Oktoberfest.”

Titans were understaffed

Luckily for McCrae, his squad shot a respectable 48, per cent from the field, including 5-of-13 from three-point land and 20for-24 from the foul stripe. The pick-up atmosphere was evident by a glance at the Titans bench - no coach and only seven

players. At half-time, while the Warriors deliberated to their dressing room, the Titans stayed on the court and took some ex.tra shots. No wonder they played’s zone defence - they would have collapsed from exhaustion if they played a man to man defence.

Unorganized and sloppy The crowd was sparse by Waterloo standards, but very impressive considering it was an exhibition. game on Oktoberfest weekend. Keeping in the preseason, pick-up game theme, the first seven minutes were unorganized and sloppy, as both clubs fumbled to get a handle on the ball. The Warriors bolted tc an early 11-4 lead with four minutes elapsed, But led by captain Mike Visser, the Titans went on a 13-5 rampage to take a 17-16 lead by the 12 minute mark, Pecking away from the perimeter, the Warriors reclaimed the lead and stormed ahead 2719 with nine minutes remaining in the ‘half. Both teams found their games briefly, but slipped back into neutral as the half progressed,. Atone point, the score w.as deadlocked at 34 for over two minutes as both squads tossed up countless bricks. yaterloo led at half-time, 40-39. The Warriors burned rubber as they came out for the sedond half. Schneider was a one-man wrecking crew, nailing jumpers and making several steals which set up lightning quick fast bretiks. The high speed Waterloo offence ran the seven-man Titan team into the hardwood. Schneider left the K-W team gasping for air as UW pulled away, 67-55 with nine minutes remaining. But the Titans discovered their second wind. With captain Visser as their answerto Schneider, the Titans ripped off a ‘17-7 run to pull within 74-72 with just three min’ utes left on the clock, Thirty seconds later, Visser hit - an acrobatic fade away three-pointee? to cap a miraculous comeback - 75-74. Schneider restored UW’s lead when he nailed a clutch jumper with the shot clock running dry and 21 seconds left in the game.

65 years

Two free throws by John Bilawey [who notched IO on the night) withr ten seconds left in the game appeared to ice the cake at 81-77 -but the Titans weren’t finished yet. The Titans Carl Keil made an acrobatic s’teal, and was fouled as he sunk an equally impressive lay up. He meshed the free throw to close it to 81-80. The entire PAC crowd shuffled in their seats as UW’s John Clark missed the frbnt end of a one-and-one with two seconds on the clock. After a timeout, the Titans stole a page from Waterloo football as a long bomb sailed helplessly over all awaiting receivers as the buzzer wailed. Visser, a former UW star, paced the Titans with 28 points and 10 rebounds. He also hooped four of seven trys and went 4for-4 from the foul stripe. Dave Burns added 22 points. The Titans shot 45 per cent from the’ floor, hit five of nine three-pointers and 17-of-21 free throws.

Good and bad moments Coach McCrae made it obvious he wanted a’ good look at his entire team - 10 of 11 players in uniform logged court time. He also had to work around the absence of forwards Jeremy Moore, Pat Telford and Andy Zeinchuk who were scratched from the line-up due to various inj urieti. ’ “It was a casewhere we played everybod.y, and we had our good and bad moments,” McCrae said. “We were aware that the Titgns are very efficient - they always go to their good people. We broke it open for awhile there, but then they went to their main players like a good team does.

Sloppy Warriors* split by Peter

Dedes

Imprint staff Coach McKee was hoping to breach the York Yeoman stronghold by buzzing around and lulling the opposition to sleep last Thursday evening. By the final buzzer, he was hoping to have counted enorigh goals to register the Waterloo hockey Warriors their first “w” in their season opener. York and UW slugged it out, trading goals like baseball cards. The scorefeat ended with the judges giving the match to York on points, 8-7. Sunday afternoon, the puck Warriors played their first regular season home match against the University of Toronto Blues before an encouraging crowd at the Columbia pond. UW still seems unable to play a consistent three periods, but took the victory on a split decision, 5-3. The home-opener was marked by quick line changes and furwere ious skating. The Blues controlled the pla as the Warriors be K ind their blueline, unable to organize effective breakouts Toronto took a penalty and doubled Waterloo’s advantage by adding a bench minor. Six seconds into the dual penalties, Dan Tsandelis lifted the puck into the net from Toronto’s doorstep on a face off deep in the Blues’ zone. Assists went to centerman, Steve Linseman and line mate Chris Glover. Waterloo seemed intent on spending the last five minutes of period one penalized by needless infractions. U of T put the puck behind Mike Bishop with 3:29 remaining in the period. Fortunately for the Warriors+ obstruction in the crease was called and the goal disallowed. With the Warriors two men down, the penalty killing triangle was persistent and effective, handcuffing the Blues to a 1-O deficit going into the first intermission. Waterloo scored early in the second frame. Captain John Goodman strong armed around-a Toronto defender. While falling, he swep.t the puck across the crease to Tony CriSp who slid ‘er home at 1:29. The Warrior powerplay was particularly effective Sunday with pin-point passing and the players skating to the open space. Defenseman Ken Buitenhuis drifted into the slot taking a pass from Linseman and Tsandelis and counting on the man advantage at 3:17. The Warriors foun.d themselves once again two men down. UW worked the triangle to keep the Blues off the board but as Dietrich stepped onto the ice after his stint in the sin bin, U of T beat a helpless Bishop on a shot from the slot at 7:46. The Linseman line continued to dominate as Tsandelis and Glover worked the puck to Linseman at the point where he slapped it past the red line at 15:41. Goodman streaked down the left side with Crisp on a iwo-onone break. Crisp feathered a pass to the captain who wristed it over the keepers shoulder wit)l4:19 remaining. Ken Buitenhuis had illusions of being Al lafrate as the architect of UW rushes steaming up ice with the rubber. By the end of the second, a brilliant Bishop had turned aside is Blues’ blasts as the Warriors were outshot in the second 13-14. By round three, Waterloo thought it had thoroughly outpunched Toronto and were content to spend the period on the ropes, At 5:14, Mike Bishop was caught wandering by the Blues who tallied a powerplay marker. Bishop looked like a tourist in a foreign country every time he left his front poych. Bishop... stay home. Waterloo continued to accumulate the penal& minutes, threatening to let the University of Toronto back into the match, Midway into the period, the Toronto centre was left alone after the face off in the Waterloo zone, Five seconds into the powerplay, he scored what would be the final goal of the match.

You all must be wondering what makes a championship volleyball team click. The potential for success this year with the Waterloo Warriors volleyball team is enormous. All of the ingredients are there: talent, desire, and -confidence. It will be the little things that bring victory; intensity in practice, a strong push by the utility players on the starting six, the mentality that not one ball will hit the floor except on the other side of the net. Is the CIAU championship out of line? If the Warrior Volleyball Team can play together like they can, the trip to e Calgary is certainly within the realm of possibility.

power department. An obvious strength, the Warriors will hit from anywhere: power, middle, offside, even from the backcourt. One .of the important questions is whether the team can pass well. Team passing caused a few problems last year, especially in the OldAA final against Toronto. In the fifth and deciding game of that match, the Warriors just could not pass the ball to setter Tony Martins, killing any chances of a varied attack on the strong Toronto side. Atkinson has a new system in effect this year, only three players will be passing. One power player, Steve Smith: a middle player, Scott Smith: and offside hitter Lech Bekesza have been

designated for this role. Hopefully, any weakness in this area will disappear, Does this team have the ability to play together on defence? This is an area that must be dealt with. Positional play on defence is something that can be taughi to individually talented players. Coach Atkinson is presentiy working with the team in practice on this aspect of the game. When the opposing team is attacking, the blockers must try and force the opposing hitter to play the ball’into the hands of the defence. To accomplish this, the digging players must know exactly where the block is forcing the hit to go, where all their teammates are on the floor, and what their own task is. Being able to read the set is also imper-

Oktoberfest

rugby tourney

Old boys show schoolboys the ropes . by Glenn Hauer Imprint staff

‘The inaugural Oktoberfest Seven-A-Side Rugb Tournament featured a corn31ination of gray-haired, grizzled veterans from long ages past and the energetic pups of our own side here at Waterloo. Rugby is usually an intense game; however, as vice-captain Blair Falconer found out, any intensity exhibited on the field in this tournament was rewarded with an impolite ejection from your team. Oktoberfeat is meant to be fun, and this spirit was demanded of everyone participating on Saturday, October 15, Who were those guys in the red jerseys? The Lawrence Park Old Boys, led by former Warrior strum-half Dave “big guy” Hunter, graduated from that high school in 1978. We were led to believe that their high school was torn down, and this bred overconfidence in the younger opposition players who thought, “These guys are too old to run around with us!” Well, the Old Boys surprised everyone in the tournament, including the infamous Rankin’s Wankins squad. The Wankins failed to make a tackle in the match against Lawrence Park, even with such devastating tacklers as Aiun “Moe” Phillips; he fell asleep at mid-field for the entire second half. Eventually, Lawrence Park met the much too serious Cedarbrae Old Boys (unknown players) in the final. They defeated Cedarbrae in a close match, score unknown. ,.

Another old team, the Warrior alymni, failed to make a grab for the hardware, losing to Lawrence Park in the semi-final. Warrior forward Glenn Hauer &as the referee in this ame, not giving our alumni any t reaks at all, Too man -intense players! The Water Yoo A side, consisting of a pot-pourri of players from the Warrior 1st and 2nd fifteen, played very well and ended tip winning the consolation final. Was it against the Laurier Old Boys or the Laurier A side? It was difficult to tell the difference. They probably had some Laurier B players on the squad as well. It really didn’t matter, Waterloo A carried Waterloo B as well. Confused? By this time of the afternoon, so were the tournament organizers who were as usual discussing the relative merits of malt-based beverages (or was it beef-curtains?)* Finally, the day was over. The MVF of the tourney was a winer named Jim from Lawrence f ark. Laurier’s Old Boys took the team spirit award, London St. George, with alumni centre Jimmy Allen at the helm, took the glass turkey award and promptly shared it with all of the participants. The Warriors Rugby Club would like to thank Jim Closs, Mark Rankin, and Altin Phillips for all of the work put into organizing the tourney; It wouldn’t have got off the ground withqut them. Labatt’s supplied prizes and beverages, Schneider’s provided the Oktoberfest sausage, and the players supplied the typical types of fun usually preient in rugby events,

BWTIN LOOSE: In the end, the Lawrence Park Old Boys took the title at the inaugural Oktoberfest Seven-A-Side Rugby tourney at Waterloo last weekend, The grizzled veterans defeated Cedarbrae in the finals.

Warriors start thfep alarm blaze in- Buffaloby Kevin

Shoom

Things may have been quiet in North Tonnawanda, but the University of Waterloo’s CrossCountry Team caught fire in Buffalo last Saturday, October 15. UW runners burned up the course en route to taking home medals in each of the three races. Waterloo was participating in the Roesch Invitational, hosted by Bisonville’s Canisius College. Several western New York’ C‘Olleges at tended the meet held on a flat, windy course in a downtown park. Warrior captain Chris Rogers may well have frightened some of his young American opponents away ftom competitive 4

running. He annihilated the field in the 5,5 mile junior varsity race, winning by almost three minutes. Rogers even surprised several race’ marshals with hb speed. They were’ not prepared when Captain Chris passed them, because they didn’t think anyone ,would be by for a while. Scott Grainey of Waterloo ended up 21st in the same race, Athena captain Jill Francis also displayed some leadership. She collected Waterloo’s second medal, this time a silver, in the women’s three mile event. Waterloo placed two other runners in the top ten: Lisa Laffradi was fifth and freshperson Charla Spinney took eighth. Marielle Rowa’n continued her comeback

from an injury with a 17th place‘ finish; she was fourteen seconds up on Denise Eppich in 21st. Deborah Addison ran well to take 34th, and Kilmeny Beimler and Marina Jones placed 37th and 41st respectively. The Athena team was third, behind Rochester and winning hosts Canisius. Assistant Coach [women] Alan Adamson was glad to see Lisa Laffradi has apparently recovered from a bout of bronchitis, but expressed frustration that the good races of his team members have made selecting the OWIAA Championships team rather difficult. The need to perform in the 5.5 mile men’s varsity race was apparent in the efforts of the War-

rior team. The men bitterly contested the event, racing each other as well as their opponents as they chased the remaining _spots on the OLJAA Championships team. Senior kin student Shamir Jamal rose to the occasion, barging to the lead right from the gun, and holding on for third place overall - Waterloo’s third medal of the day. Back in the pack, the battle raged. Rookie Terry Gehl went out fast, followed by Tom DeKay and a pack with Dale Lapham, John cones, and Jeff Barrett. As DeKay fell back, Barrett moved up to challenge Gehl. Gonos and Sean McGuiness caught Gehl over the second half of the race, which began taking its toll on

This past weekend saw the Warrior Waterpolo team make the long haul to Queen’s for something other than getting drunk and acting stupid in the streets of Kingston amidst Homecoming festivities. The Warriors went down to the two day Cross-over Round Robin confident and looking for three wins to put them in playoff position, They came close, going Z-I1 in games against Ottawa, Carelton, Queen’s and RMC. The loss came first. Waterloo was pitted against a ver forceful team from Ottawa, T rl e GeeGees exploited the Warriors lack of experience to score goal8 in bunches. They eventually finished off Waterloo with a staggering 20-5 final score. Frustrated and needing a win, the Wartiors rallied and clamped down to get it in their second game-against Carleton. The Warriors began the game strong and immediately outscored Carleton - a pattern that. remained consistent throughout the rest of the game. Leading the attack on Carieton’s net was Norbert Molnar with four goals, followed by Jeff Stater and Gord Head with two a piece. These two goals were rookie Head’s first in university play v Veteran player Mike Cash, whose expert throwing ability

This moment had extra significance because his parents were in the stands, visiting from Bermuda and seeing their son play for the first time. Thus, with consistently strong scoring and excellent support from the bench, the Warriors came away with a satisfying 10-5 victory. After an evening of exploration, afid an education on the true meaning of Homecoming rovided by the voluntary exhiii ition on the part of an ,overabundance of purple preppie types, Waterloo set out to prove their superiority in playing ablity and moral character ‘against the home team bright and early Sunday morning., Queen’s’ anticipated an easy victory stating at the outset that they were going to crush Waterloo. The Warriors, hungry for the witi, ate away at the competition with a 3-O lead. However, they let things slip and by the start of the third quarter they found themselves down 5-3. A pivotal goal at a crucial time came from Gord Head and created the turning point for Waterloo allowing them to take a 8-6 lead in the fourth quprter. Ultimately the thrill of victory was not to be theirs: it was to be shared ending in and 8-8 tie, Waterloo and Queen’s are now tied for fifth place in the standings; they are one point out of playoff position four behind Western.

The last game of the tournament saw the Warriors facing RMC late Sunday afternoon. Waterloo’s start was very strong seeing them end the first quarter with a 5-O lead, After the first quarter, however, the game was dominated by erratic play. .The game became very physical, to the point of violetice. Despite RMC’s unsportsmanlike conduct, Waterloo capitalized on Cash’s lob shots; This led to three goals and combined with veteran Slat& four goal total helped on once again by Head, Murray and Beckley. Victory was sweet in a 12-8,final score The tournament was a success for the Warrior Waterpolo team. Coach Shane Rollans pvt it best, saying, “We accomplished pretty much what we wanted to do and’ earned some respect from the .rest of the league.” Waterloo’s next game takes place at York on Wednesday October 19. With a win York would be eliminate*d as a playoff contender, and Waterloo’s quest for a playoff position would likewise come closer to a reality.

Pepmik Ret

That’s right folks, workouts in cramped quarters, fighting over mirrors and benches and endless waits to squeeze in a set are finally over!*The new weight room opened Tuesday, October 18; located on the lower level of Red South (former classrooms PAC 1088 and 10891, the space is at least 3 times as large as the “old” weight rOOm The new ar’rangement features a warmup room (formerly the varsity weight room) containing exercise bikes and rowers as well as a stretching area. Several new pieces of equipment have been purchased including a pet deck, seated chest press, pulley crossovers and Smith Machines, New flooring, mirrors and a coat of paint complement_the warkout and warmup areas. The “old” weight room i’s now designated as the varsity room: however, it is open to everyone when not booked by varsity teams. Regular hours (Tarn to 12 midnight MTWR, 7am to 1Opm F) will resume Monday, October 24. This week’s shortened schedule [9am to 9pm) was implemented so that monitors could be available to answer any questiqns and explain procedures of

the new equipment. Campus Ret would like tcv have monitors in the weight room on a regular basis; however, this will be a volunteer position as funds are not available in the C-R budget at this time. If you are interested in volunteering .a few hours per week to answer questions and offer assistance to users (note this would be good experience if you’d like to secure a part-time or summer job in a fitness club orgym], please contact Sally Kemp at ext, 35331 rm 2052 in the PAC Office. New weight room users please note that no personal belongings are allowed in the area and wristbands must be worn.
