by Mike Brown Imprint rtsff "I believe Homecoming will be over-budget" were the words Vice-president S h a m Carmichael uttered during his routine monthly report to Students' Council. What followed was a pre-prepared two-page resolution of restraint which cuffed the powers of the V-P (operations and finance). John Herbert, the Math co-op councillor, introduced the five restraining motions which were passed in one vote. Twelve councillors supported the motion, while t h q abstained and two remained opposed. Before Sundays climactic meeting, "I showed the motion to, and got input from six people," Herbert said. Momdntsc before the motion was distr&b@ed and rea& to

council, Carmichael contintued: "It's fair to say we will be acouple thousand dollars over (the] Homecoming budget." After an hour's debate and the successful assi inn of the resolution of resiraint which cut Carmichael'a influence in two upcoming events, a second motion was introduced. The motion of non-confidence which ensued, "completely caught by surprise," Carmichael said. The non-confidence motion was introduced by ' Councillor Tim Jackson [Arts, Co-op, Winter) and seconded b Student Counr Regucillor Roger ~ u d b (Math, lar); it also passed 12-2-3. Early figures show that Homecoming 1988may be over-budget by as much as $10,000. The threa day event held Nov.11-18 had been ellocated $6,000 in the Students' Council budgat, Because of .the small amount of * time

which has elapsed after Homecoming, a complete cost is still unavailable: however, the price tag to date is up to at least , $18,700. Federation bvlaws state "The VPOF is required to act upon the approval of the members of Students' Council in all matters concerning the finances of the Students' Council." Based on Cardchael's apparent disregard for the Federation bylaw and what Councillor Stephen Markan agseed wan fiscal mismanagemeat in the case of Homecoming, Students' Council motioned that Shane Carmichael "not give direction, nor be involved in the giving of direction, in the allocation 6f funds for Wintwfest (1889) and Culturd Caravan (1889) Students' Council does not have the power to force'redg~ations ktt ode member wan adam-

While on the spot to defend himself at the meeting of council. Carmichael asserted certain risks must be taken to make things happen on this campus. '7 am willing to make those choices." he said. "I'll do what it takes to make these events work." Many councillors were angry that the Mamas & Papas venueat the PAC looked like it was expected to take a loss. Carmlchael conceded "It was a bad decision. If this is what is going to come out of this -I can awept this."

Councillor Robert Hubbs (IS.) in speaking for the resolution of restraint told council “It’s about time we put those controls back into place.” Councillor Markan told Imprint “After Homecoming there was a lot of complaints -people were ignored. ” “He turns off volunteers,” Markan said. “Thoroughly disgusted with the conduct” i8 how Councilor Tudor rated the performance of the Homecoming Committee. While Carmichael was not the chairperson, (Kelly Start], he is pinned with making the contentious decision of bringing in the Mamas and the Papas to the PAC which only brought in approximately 70 people on the Friday night: this Carmichael did, despite the lack of consensus on the Homecoming Committee and the “strong reservations” he says he knew Board of Entertainment Chairperson Anne Greening had for any venue scheduled for the PAC. According to Tudor, on November 10, an emergency Federation Board of Directors meeting was called to approve a non-related expenditure. Also at the meeting, a “small loss” for Homecoming was predicted,

Tudor said, “1 was going on faith” Commenting on President Adam Chamberlain’s reaction at the Board meeting -considering the magnitude of the weekend, “Adam appeared to be quite confident,” he said. Herbert, who served on the 1987 Homecoming committee said the 1988 committee was “one of the worst committees I’ve sat on for being able to express my own opinions.” Fed President Adam Chamberlain agrees in terms of Homecoming - “A bad decision was made.” Chamberlain says he wants a solution to this and agrees perhaps bands over a certain dollar amount should be discussed at the Board of Directors’ level, It could result in a new policy, he said. Chamberlain also said Carmichael’s troubles may have been “exacerbated by his attempt at [city) council.” The decision to book the Mamas and the Papas was made after Federation staff became aware that Blue Rodeo and the Bay City Rollers were not available. The Federation of Students budget prepared by Carmichael and ratified by council earlier in the year gave Homecoming $6,000 of council money. Carmi-

chael says he was aled banking on between $4,000 and $5,000 of Labatt’s development money as well as revenue derived from Iiquor sales, Casino earninga, pizza sales and other miscellaneous sources. Labatt’s, in a deal with the Feds has earmarked $15,000 as development money to be used on Federation events throughout the year. No Labatt’s money was ever considered in early Homecoming commi!tee budgets; it was money that many people knew was their as a cushion: Most thought the Labatt’s money for Homecoming was more in the neighborhood of $3,000. The October committee budget drafted by Carmichael was already intending to ‘go . over budget by $2,500; something the core of supporters of the resolution of restraint say was concerning, not shocking. Full-time Bent co-ordinator Emmanuel Patterson provided budgets to Carmichael for the two PAC venues: Mamas and Papas and the Blushing Brides. The Blushing Brides were scheduled to lose $2,270 while the Mamas and the Papas were scheduled to lose $8,320; in fact, the Mamas and Papas will have lost more due to poor attendance. It is important to remember

that not all of the costs have been fully calculated (such as bar services charges] and not all of the revenues have been fully calculated (extra Labatt’s Blue Zone money?); something Carmichael points to when criticizing what he calls an uninformed council decisiQn. Even the most conservative calculations, however, reveal that Homecoming 1988 will at best be $5,000 in the red. Right now, Carmichael ia not willing to concede the event could have gone over by as much as $10,000, but he says “If that were the case, I would use some of that Labatt’s’sponsorship money to get that figure down.” The notion that banking on Iiquor sales to stay under-bud&t was foolish found no argument from Chamberlain and the majority of those who attended the November 20 council meeting. Last Winter, Carmichael was elected by students to the office of VPOF., His election was in the aftermath, of Canada Day budgeting problems which received front page coverage in Imprint, Then VPOF Andrew Abouchar charged Carmichael with over-committing f#unds to the 1987 event. After elected, however, Carmichael was virtually given a clean slate, despite

the mentioning of Canada Day 1987 as a “whereas” in this latest resolution of restraint. The resolution also cites overbudgeting problems of Homecoming 1987 which Carmichael was a co-chairperson; it further states Carmichael’s omission of several thousand dollars for OFS fees in the curr’ent budget. The lack of full disclosure over Canada Day 1988 wris another basis of rationale for the cesolution. I Carmichael was credited for real “zeal’! in approaching projects. He bases his close involve&ent with large events as part of his election platform. Without his involvement in Homecoming, he quite frankly states, ‘*The job wouldn’t have been done.”

Proposed IS changes spark controversy by Marie Sedivy Imprint staff The 25 or so Independent Studies (IS) students and five academic advisors who attended Monday’s Senate meeting iri an attempt to preserve some of the fundamental principles of the program’s operation were able to claim at least partial victory after Senate voted to table a report which recommends a number of major changes to the structure and operation’of IS. Senators affirmed they did not feel they had sufficient information in order to make a fair decision at the time, As a result of the large number of IS students and advisors present, one senator said that if he were to vote in favour of the report, he would feel as though he were voting against an entire program.. Federation of Students President Adam Chamberlain, who moved to table the report until December 19, later commented the move was a gesture of goodwill. “If you’re going to bring in something and ram it down their throats, they have a right to get up in arms. The students are asking for discussion, and that’s a very reasonable request.” .

There is a lot of abuse going on” Dr. Howard Woodhouse, an , academic advisor with the IS program, comments “Senate’s decision to table the report enhances the opportunity for dialogue and consensus about the undoubted value of the IS program to the university at large.“ Prior to the Senate meeting, the executive committee of IS sent a letter to all senators asking for their support in tabling the issue until the December 19 meeting. The committee is composed of two students, two academic advisors, and the academic director. The academic director refused to sign the letter. According to IS Councillor and IS student spokesperson Robert Hubbs, Dagg‘s initial refusal was accompanied by a statement that this was a student uprising and she didn‘t want to take part. She reportedly later retracted the statement. Trudy Bunting, advisor to the V-P Academic and provost on fnterdisciplinsry studies, argued there was no need to defer the decision, because the review had already taken longer than originally anticipated.

However, Dagg is not sure the lack of collegiality is a result of .student participation in running the program. According to Hubbs, any conflict that doea exist is between the appointed directorate and the democratic governing of the program (i.e. academic director Anne Dagg and the advisor to the ‘VP Academic and provost on Interdisciplinary Studies on the one hand, and students and faculty on the other.)

As the campaign ended up revolving around the single issue of Free Trade, the NDP was caught in the traditional thirdparty vice of being unable to win in certain areas; thus people did not want to waste their vote in the effort to defeat Free Trade. This worked in the NDP’s favour in British Columbia and Saskatchewan.

Simpson went ‘on the discuss what went wrong with the Liberals. During the first two weeks of the campaign, there was nothing but gloom in the Liberal camp.

”

By the end of the second week, internal polrs for the Conserv& tives showed them winning 220230 seats and the Liberals with less than 40. Lloyd Axworthy, running in Winnipeg, stated that for every vote they received in order to defeat Free Trade, another vote would not go to them due to questions over Turner’s leadershiD, ii the first week of the campaign, the Liberals introduced a child care policy for which they were unable to provide costs. -It took the cam aign five days to come up wit K the cost, which was ridiculous considering an election had been expected. Then the debate came, resulting in revival in Liberal fortunes. This was largely a result of the “exceedingly low expectation8 for Turner,” said Simpson. Based on his experience of Turner’s Summer Tour through Northern Ontario, Simpson believed Turner performed well. The reasons the Liberals could not sustain the momentum were three-fold, according to Simpson. First, the Conservatives rel minded the electorate of Turner’s problems of the past f four years. Second, the Liberal8 rode the free trade issue as far as it could go, and the different opinions about the impact of Free Trade confused a significent portion of the electorate. Many of these people decided to look at other issues, and at this point, said Simpson, the Liberals had lost it, This happened primarily in the last eight to ten days.

Thirdly, the Liberals ran out of money for the last week advertising blitz.

After the debate, the excellent tracking provided by Decima Research for the Conservatives indicated they were in trouble.

Gardner declined to discuss the reasons for this decision, Dagg, however, feels having an elected chair might be a posaible solution. “The chair should get along with students and eve-

ryone,” she says. Another concern is that in other departments, the chair is elected on-a rotating basis; Dagg has been academic director of IS since June of 1985. Hubbs claims “Moat students and advisora think she has failed to do her job.” He says this is based on surveya, queetionnairea, and sentiments expressed across the board in various IS committees. Hubbs alao says student8 and academic advisors want to establish a constitution for the program in order to eliminate difficulties in the interpretation of guidelines. Another controversial recommendation would change the staffing of IS. Currently, academic advisors are hired from outside the university on a parttitie basis.

roles on a part-time buy-out basis. Gardner provides several reasons for this decision. In the first place, the committee feels the university should be drawing on its present reeourccs. He also say8 regular faculty appointments have long-term commitment to the university and are more aware of what is going on in the university. According to Gardner, IS has tended to function as an island isolated from the remainder of the university, and the committee wants to provide closer ties with the mainitream of UW. However, during the meeting, one senator questioned whether it would be possible to find parttime people affiliated with other faculties who would be as committed to the program and its students as the current academic advisors. Lippincott feels the position takes time to learn and operates on a cullegial basis. He doubts this would be possible on a term by term basis. He pointed out that IS has expanded and implemented new initiatives largely due to overtime work and commitment of the staff. After the Senate meeting, Chamberlain emphasized that although the IS students and academic advisors have won their bid to have Senate postone a decision until they have Ii ad adequate time to consider the issue, they will have to do some serious lobbying if they i;cnto have the report voted .

Decreasing numbers of foreign students at Western is causing some concern.

GREATEST IDEA WAS A WTLD GUESS. His name was Johannes Kepler and he had a passion for solving difficult problems - such as the one that consumed over half his life. At an early age, Kepler became utterly fascinated by an unpopular view. Like Copernicus, he believed the earth revolved around the sun - nbt vice versa. But - klieving it was one thing. Proving it, another. In the year 1404, Kepler’s tools were limited. Working with instruments that were woefully crude, he attempt& to plot the orbit of the planets around the sun by inventing one hypothesis after anothei - then testing each hypothesis against observed phenomena. In seeking to map the orbit of Mars, he spent four years testing over seventy hypotheses. All to no avail. Nothing had made sense. What Kepler needed was more information. After another year of poverty and frustration, Kepler got his wish. The great astronomer, Tycho Brahe, who had been recording the movements of the stars for over thirty years, invited Kepler to

Dumdna toxic waste I

by Sherwood Imprint staff

Recent studies show the exportatian of hazardous and toxic wastes to the Third World is a North American growth industry. Theee wastes include chemically contaminated wastes, pharmaceutical refuse and municipal incinerator ash. All these substances can adversely affect ground water and crops and cause birth defects and cancer. U.S. records show thht for the period 1970 to 1984, exports of wastes to the Third World rose from 9 million metric tons to 247 million metric tons. Some experts go so far as to estimate the actual number is probably much closer to 400 million metric tons. Trying to prevent this outflow creates sensitive legal and foreign policy questions. The U.S. military has been caught illegally exporting wastes. Many Third World governments ace more than ready to accept North

America’s hazardous wastes at the right price. Under the current federal system, officials only have control of waste that is in the country. They have no jurisdiction and therefore no legal recourse once the wastes are outside’ their boundaries. Those who believe this is.not an important issue, that once these wastes. are “out of sight” they are “out of mind,” must be reminded that many foodstuffs today come from these very Third World nations. Theee foodstuffs may very.well be con; taminated with the same waste products North America intended to have disposed. Not all imported foods are monitored at the border and therefore there cannot be a IOOper cent guarantee of food quality. . Dumping wastes in other nations does not remove the probieT;,,‘dhe problem is merely .

rate, and has the choice of making payments on simply the interest,. or both the interest and the principal. Regardless, the balance of the loan is due after two years. Interestingly, neither Financial Services nor the CIBC takes any responsibility for checking the student’s past credit record. However, if the student defaults on the loan, the university has the right to withhold marks -or even diplomas. Fortunately, although UWs programme hasn’t been going long enough for anyone to default yet, according to Dorothy Battae at& Financial Services, the number of defaul.ts at other universities offering* similar programmes is low. The programme, which was started in the fall of 1987, was originally intended for Mechani#Cal ‘Engineers because it was thought they were the ones who most needed personal computers for homework. During the past year, however, the number of requests by other students for similar aid was such that the programme’s management board decided to extend the programme for all students. According to the Microcomputer Die tribution Facility, most student purchases are in the $1500-$3000 range and are for Zenjth Easy PC compatibles, Macintosh Pluses, or IBM PS/Z Model 25s. The major reason for student purchases is for word processing, but also for numerical analysis, spreadsheets and programming. In addition, many students, buy systems similar to those found in the university’s ’ various microcomputer labs in order to do lab work at home.

Starting your owir business by Stew

Graham

“Who wants to crawl up the corporate ladder anymore? Today a new dream has seized imaginations everywhere: the dream of starting your own business.” - Daniel Stoffman Starting your own bus&s is definitely one career option which deserves consideration for many. In the past decade, Canada has seen an increase of 42 per cent in small businesses. This translated to 850,000 businesses. Between 1878 and 1985,86 per cent of net job creation was from industries employing fewer than 50 people, and 75 per cent of those jobs were in businesses which did not even exist before 1978. Thus, small business forms a very powerful part of the wofkforce which should be taken into conaideration if you are the entrepreneurial type, or are searching for employment. There are many sources of information for the entrepreneur. The best way to begin if you are an undergraduate is to take a course in small business development. These courses are available in various faculties in the university. Learning to prepare a business plan is very important and a valuable tool if you need capital to start your venture, Other resources include government prbgrams such a~ the venture capital program, and the new ventures consulting program. More information is available from the career information centre in Needles Hall. There are many success stories about folk legends starting their own business such as Bill Hewlett, and Bill Packard, however approximately half of all new ventures will fail within the first five years of operation. This failure rate should be kept in mind as a drawback to considering smsll business for employment opportunities. The pay and benefits are usually not as good as in large firms as well. However, the culture and environment of a small business can be exciting, and usually what you do matters in the success of the firm, and if the firm does grow, you can succeed and grow with it, So the idea of starting your own business is an option which should not be overlooked. For more information, drop in and viait one of the SVAs around campus and we’ll help you get all the information you need.

COMMENT

’ -

Changes punish IS The Fourth Decade Report, which examines the possibledirection of the university into the next decade, places great importance on self-directed learning and @dependent studies. In an interview with an Imprint staff reporter last summer, uw President Doug Wright said “University is the place where you go from being taught by others to learning for yourselveg,lV At the same time, changes to UW’s Independent Studies (IS] program proposed by the Senate Review Committee threaten the fundamental principals of that program, a program which represents what has been said to be the future directionof education: the Committee’s prbposals would eliminate student involvement in the administration of t-heir- program. IS students and academic advisors argue the student participation on various committees is integral to students’ academic development; they emphasize that the high degree of participation in the program’s administration is it s major strength, partly because the focus of the program is such that many students have chosen fields that are very specific and involve the development of such skills. The independent studies model is also built on the principle of students taking greater responsibility for their education. Now this is threatened. Jim Gardner, chair of the Review Committee, emphasizes there is a lack of collegiality in the program, and that this collegiality is the glue that holds most departments together. He says the committee has received evidence that the academic performance of a number of students .has suffered due to tensions within the department, In order to “ease” that tension, he recommends students lose their voice. The committee recommendations ignore the obvious collegiality that ddes exist between students and their academic advisors: there was no apparent tension among the more than twenty studenta and five academic advisors who attended the Senate meeting in protest of the committee’s recommendations. If anything, there was an incredible amount of solidarity exhibited by the fact all academic advisors were present at the meeting; at least one adviaor, Mark Lippincott, came& from out of town solely for the Senate meeting after rescheduling a meeting with the Ministry of Health. The strong turn-out from among IS students also attests to their solidarity on this issue; about 25 of the 47 students currently registered in the program attended the meeting. This proportion is even more significant when one considers that generally many students who support a cause will not do anything about it. A number of sources have commented that any lack of collegiality that exists is due to the administration; unlike other departments,. the head of IS is not elected from among faculty (in this case, the academic advisors) for a temporary time period.

Who really,won

The PC’s tried to make an issue of that, but Turner would not let them off the hook-on Free Trade. Though the strategy failed to elect the Liberals, they received the patriotic vote. Come next election when the rest of Canada is sick of Mulroney telling Quebec how much his administration helped them,

The return of Brian of the deal. Some complain he based his whole campaign on the FTA issue. So what? It is the one thing that could affect this country more than ail of Brian Mulroney’s future fuck-ups put together. The Jaw’s campaign consisted of him driving a bus ground town, smiling and waving at cameras. If a friendly crowd gathered, he’d stop and feed his supporters some propaganda about free trade. Lyin’ Brian gave eloquent speeches containing much vague nothingness ,about everything in which he called John a liar at least three times an hour. But all is now said and done. I am still in shock that we have re-elected a man who haa demonstrated his incompetence for four years straight. I guess it’s a reflection on our gradual Americanization. We’re about four years behind right now, but the deal will speed up matters. If you were upset by reading this commentary, just wait- until Mulroney starts to change his mind on some of his 1988 election promises that he was elected for.

Keep rebuttal’ on high .plain of discussion To the editor, As I read Sean Saunders response to Eric Kuelker’s colum& “Evidences of God,” I see yet another example of what seems to be the current trend in.journalism; namely, an attempt to condemn and tear the opp&ent to shreds, instead of a civil confrontation and critique of another’s point of view. Unfortunately, this condemnation is being done in the name of Christianity, by “a believer with a brain that works.” But let me defer my critique of

your article’s style, Mr. Saunders’ and let me concentrate, first, OII its content, I will begin by drawing a distinction between the two adjectives “Impossible” and “unexplained,” which you seem to have treated synonymously. I would categorize the belief that “the world iu flat” as “imbecause it’s been possible,” proven otherwise, For contrast, consider the experiments performed around the turn of the century, in which it was established that the velocity of light did not behave in the manner

Carmichael criticized for ignoring UW job To the editor, I’m quite pleased to see that we are finally nearing the end of the 1988 election season. One result from the municipal race which gave me sQ.rne satisfaction, was the defeat of Mr. Carmichael as the.,.:9 tudent’ candidate for Waterloo council. I’m not particularly opposed to single issue, candidates’ but I distrust politicos who mindlessly seek progressiveljr “e3Ealted b positions. Now that the municipal races have concluded I’m slightly curious as to which office Mr. Carmichael intends to aspire to next. In the past he has certainly exhibited an ambition for higher glo-

ries, surpassed perhaps only by that noble and ambitious Roman, Brutus. With only about four months remaining in-his Fed term of office, maybe for once Mr. Carmichael will be content to hold down a single job, and pursue the tasks he was elected to carry out. I am sure that free of any foreseeable conflict of interest (such as being Fed VP and councillor, or Canada Day Committee Chairman) he will finally be able to direct ,his bountiful c&m sign energids towaI;d Serving E is present constituents instead of his upwardly mobile instincts.

predicted by Newtonian physics. Obviously, these data could not be rejected as *‘impossible,” - because they had been directly observed. Thus, they would better be classified as “unexplained.” Similarly, the World Spiritual University’s belief that “the world is created and destroyed every 5,000 years in a never ending cycle” is impossible, due to contrary scientific evidence. However, the biblical accounts you have described as being “impossible” would better fit the category of “unexplained.” Einstein introduced,his theory of relativity as a revision of Newton’s theories, These theories explained the previously unexplained [the apparently impossible observations made a, few decades earlier). Can we not infer that, in a similar manner, Einstein’s theories will be updated by new theories, which offer explanations to presently unexolained observations? ‘In.

deed, such theories are being developed, one of which proposes that this universe is merely a subset of an II-dimensional system. given such-a setting, might the virgin birth, Christ’s miracles, and his resurrection, have their own scientific support a3 well? And now, to the proclamation that Mr. Kuelker owes “an apology to all Hindus.” Let me point out that the example used by Mr. Kuelker was not an attack of Hinduism in general, but rather’ a questioning of a particular subset of Hinduism; namely, the “World Spiritual University.” This example could easily have been replaced by one of several brands of his own faith; for example, the belief by one small subset of Christians that the world was created at 9:00 a,m, on October 29, in the year 4004 EC,! Such a replacement would have been equally effective in his argument. Last week’s Imprint contained

four articles responding to Mr, Kuelker’s column. I would like to turn your attention briefly to Joseph Conrad’s article, “Kuelker’s column contains inconsistencies,” While I do not agree with all his points, I would like to tommend him for critiquing and confronting Mr. Kuel ker, rat her that condemning him. Perhaps, Mr. Saunders, you could learn a lesson from Mr. Conrad’s style. Your present a point of view in the name of Christianity. Mr, Kuelker presents e contrasting point of view in the name of Christianity. Which one should 1 believe? I am forced to take the advice of Matthew XXI: “Thus, by their fruits you will recognize them.” Among the “fruits” of the Spirit is “gentleness,” Consider Paul’s command to the Philippian Church: “Let your gentleness be evident to all...” (Philippians 4:s). I have put your article to this simple test, and found it to be wanting. Ian- -Macbeth , 4A Coqu ter Science

Battle of the giants The Carmanah Valley, a 7,000 hectare (26 square mile] stretch of coastal rain forest, is one of British Columbia’s last untouched watersheds, Towering here are the finest groves of Sitka Spruce in Canada, the tallest of the species in the world. Many trees have been estimated to be more than 700 years old, and the tallest stands at 95 metres (well over twice the height of the Dana Porter Arts Library). The Carmanah Valley is owned by the Crown, but it lies within a tree farm licence granted to MecMillan Bloedel Ltd. (MB], British Columbia’s largest logging company, The company’s 1985 working plan for the area+ made public under the obligations of its tenure, showed, no logging in Carmanah until the next century. However, on April 1 iB86, two members of the Western Canada Wilderness Committee (WCWC] discovered a newly constructed logging road leading to the edge of Carmanah. Ini vestigation revealed that MB had bypassed the public review process, and now propose logging throughout the valley in 1989, It became clear the provincial government had already verbally approved the proposal. According to Ken Lay, WCWC director, who spoke at UW last week, “.,, the government was not willing to play by its own rules,” Environmentalists across Canada were outraged. In May, the Sierra Club and the Heritage Forests Society delivered to the government an outline of the environmental significance of Carmanah, proposing that it be added to adjacent Pacific Rim National Park. In the same month’ volunteers from the WCWC began construction of a hiking trail throughout the heart of the valley - an attempt to make publicly accessible this pristine and largely unknown region. When MacMillan Bloedel’s verbal and written requests to halt construction of the trail went unheeded, the company then sought a court injunction. In late July, the B.C. Supreme Court ruled the public hae the right to access Crown lands which are under the tenure of tree farm licences. Trail construction was oompleted to the Carmanah Giant, the world’s tallest Sitka spruce on August 28. At the request of the B.C. Forest Service, MB released a revised logging pian in early October. They now repose to leave 173 hectares as a reserve, inc Puding the area containing the largest Sitkes, comprising about two percent of the entire valley. The’ remaining ninety-eight percent

will be subject to clear-cut logging in the new year, Clearcutting is the method whereby all trees within a defined area are indiscriminately felled, and then the “desirable” wood is chosen and removed, The remaining timber, often as high as fifteen percent, is left to be burned on-site+ According to Lay, “the clearcut option is not environmentally sound. The lOO-plus inches of annual rainfall in Carmanah would guarantee widespread soil erosion and loss of valuable soil nutrients beqhuse of clearcutting.” Lay explained the evolutionary process of rainforests cannot rely on isolated acres of “museum” stands Existing spruce groves, and any future ones+ are dependent upon the natural ecosystem which exists in Carmanah. The spruce stands develop cyclically+ according to changes in the river system. As the Carmeneh Creek meanders, newly exposed gravel bars will allow the establishment of young ‘spruce groves+ while the old ones are gradually replaced by growth better suited to the altered soil conditions. Lay predicts that by limiting the process to small pockets, the eventual disappearance of the existing Sitkas is inevitable and the emergence of new groves is highly unlikely. Representatives of MacMillah Bloedel raise concerns about job losses threatened by forest reserves. Ken Lay estimates that “an area the size of the Carmanah watershed would provide about two weeks of intensive logging activity.” He sees other issues will have a greater longterm effect on the B.C forest industry’ including inefficient reforestation techniques, wasteful and damaging logging methods, and industry automation, Currently, about one Percent of B.C.% rainforest is in parks or reserves. According to WCWC’s Ken Lay, with the current rate of logging in the province, the option to expand this one percent will only be open for the next 13 years. After that, the pristine, old-growth forests will have been removed. The Carmaqah Valley, with. Its magnificent Sitkas and its proximity to Pacific Rim National Park, seems the perfect place to begin renewed preservation and conservation attempts. Those people interested in the Carmanah Valley should contact the WPIRC office, room 123 General Services Complex or the Western Canada Wilderness Committee+ 1034520 West 6th Avenue, Vancouver, V6J lR2.

FORUM

Damnation theory To

the editor,

I am writing to express my concerns with Eric Kuelker’s new column in Imprint, “Evidences of God,” I could not agree more that one of the most important functions of the university is to expose us to new ways of thinkihg, and to challenge our beliefs, Indeed, I know of many students, myself included, who have been conditioned to view the world in narrow, often dangerous, ways, without thinking through these world-views for themselves. Mr. Kuelker, while I appreciate t,he obvious heart-felt sincerity with which you urge your readers to consider what you feel is the “truth” about Christianity, I question the motive you present for doing so, In both your first two columns, you state that, if for no ofher reason, we should examine

the truth about Christianity because if it is true, then the “fate of our souls is at stake.” I understand from this that you subscribe to the notion that, after dying, onels soul will be either “saved” or “damned,” and that if one does not believe the “truth” about Christianity, the latter will occur, About-this motive I feel compelled to say two things. First, I feel this “you-betterbelieve-in-Christ - or-bedamned” idea is primitive, and misrepresentative of Christianity. It is recisely one of the ideas which s 1 ould be challenged, yet you state it as a premise. Many Christians, acknowledging the absurd paradox of believing in a “loving” God who created humans with the foreknowledge that their souls would be “damned,” have been able to reject this notion. Many have not, Either way, I would hope that

V one’s motive for considering Christianity would stem from a recognition of a spiritual void in the present life, not from a terrifying fear of damnation in the after-life. Second, even if you do sincerely believe that one should consider’ Christianity because the state of one’s soul is at stake, stating this idea in each column will alienate many students who may have otherwise read it with interest. Your column would be more constructive if you perhaps presented evidence for and against the truth of the notion of the soul’s damnation and explained how you have come to accept this idea as one of Christianity’s truths before you use it as a premise.

Szabo visit to UW

Television’s To the editor, My congratulations to Chris Wodskou for his article on 1st: van Szabo’s visit to UW’s Film Society (Nov. 4). Mr, Wodskou’s skillful and erceptive analysis of Szabo’s ta Pk highlighted what

Scapegoat status for Feds is unfair .

“terrible power”

I believe are very provocative issues that I would like to elaborate on. Szabo’s views on what constitutes a truly good film are excellent benchmarks for all of us to use when discuseing films we have seen, Szabo stressed that a good film accomplishes its goal if it helps one in the quest for self-knowledge. Now if that isn’t the name of the game, what is? Szabo also mentioned the rare qualit of,presence is crucial for a goo ir. actor, Watching the typical Hollywood film of today it is often possible to be deceivedinto thinking that certain actors are good because of the uniformly poor performances that surround them. But, one is rudely awakened when a Brandauer or a DeNiro walks on the screen+ exuding presence from every pore of his body, and captivates

our attention, This situation is partly caused by what Szabo called television’s “terrible power.+’ We are being influenced and our sensed numbed and warped by the continued exposure to the mostly mindless medium of television. Szabo, ever the diplomat’ also supported this as long as we understand what it is and more thought provoking alternatives remain available. After the screening, a friend’of mine commented oh the evening as being a “magic” moment by a true “visionary” of our time. Let us hope that we can hear more applause at the end of future films. Not for the projectionist, but for a director who has an equal understanding and grasp of his craft as Istvan Szabp does. Lawrsnce Pilch 2B Systems Design

To the editor, During Orientation I spent mf week trying to enumerate students for the municipal election in the PAC registration area. Myself and my co-worker registered approximately 1200 students over the four-day period. Although this number is low, it has no reflection on our attempts to encourage ‘students to register. We tried man methods to cajole students to r ill out the required form, but the majority could not bother to take the extra two minutes to do so. Instead many students found this a golden opportunity to engage in argumentative bantering. Typical responses to the question “Would you like to be enumerated for the municipal election” were: “No thanks, I don’t want any,” “I didn’t bring any money.” And, “What do you guys get out of this really.” In my mind, the editorial “Municipal Slack” which scapegoats the Federation of Students for low student voter turnout should really be blaming those who were irresponsible - the students. Not only did the Federation have people enumerating in the PAC, but there was doorto-door enumeration in the Villages. The opportunity was more than available’ but most students were not even willing to make the alightest effort to participate. . Bsrnadet te Herold 3A HOWL Classical

Premise .has pitfalls To the editor, Regarding the Friday November 11 column “Evidences of God,” Mr. Kuelker seems enthusiastic to have us “expose ourselves to new evidences and new points of view,” but fails to realize that Truthis not something to be reduced to a list of facts and statistics. His article is yet another example of the preoccupation of certain individuals (whether they be advocates or skeptics of religion] for proving or disproving facts. There i8 a serious pitfall to reducing rerligion or spirituality to a question of facts. - by doing so, anything beneficial that religion has to pffer is foregone and the whole point is missed. The Truth needs’ no defence, for the Truth is something to be experienced and not simply stated. Each individual has his/her own experiences, Language, statistics, facts are a means with which to communicate our experiences with others - but so too are music, art, love, So to reduce human experience 1

to a matter of facts is - to say the least - absurd. Consider a scenario in which a dear friend is in need of support, You may tell this friend that Jesus Christ loves him/her and .you may be in the presence of another friend who says *‘no Jesuit Krist loves him/her” and the two of you may spend the next few hours arguing over which is the “truth? Then of course, one of you will pull out a Bible which has the “truth” written i,n it and discover that you are right and say “nya nya I told you so.” What’s the point? If your spirit‘ual; well-being is based upon the validity of facts then when something comes along to challenge these facts, you will either tremble at the knees or perhaps you will really panic and start another religious column. Perhaps Mr. Kuelker and others will not get the point of this article, -but then again, perhaps that is the point. Hermant Sharma 3B Computer Engineering

Evidences ofGod Is the Creator still around? It is good that people responded to my column of two weeks ago; that is part of a free press. A parable might clear up some points, though. Suppose A and B are trying to convert C to their respective religions. A tells C there is a green cheese eating god just beyond the reach of our telescopes who love@ all who eat green cheese sandwiches, and punishes those who do no,t, B tells C the actual truth is that there is a swarm of urple cheese eating gods beyond our telescopes who bless peep Pe who eat purple cheese sandwiches every third day. The other 2 da s, no cheese is to be : eaten at all, purple or green, or torment fal Ps on the sinners. C says “Wait a minute. Why should I believe you? You haven’t even got any empirical proof. A and B look uncomfortable and say, in turn, “Well, my system has spiritual truth.” C says “But your systems flatly contradict. A haa one god, I3 has many. B forbids cheese eating 2/3 of the time, A doesn’t. Is that truth?” Now does my statement that religion has to have a link with facts look so untena,ble? By this I mean that science has to indicate the truth of religion, but ,it certainly is not the sole basis for it, as some have interpreted me. Let me illustrate why. z Peter a:10 sa s “The elements will be destroyed by fire.” This was thought to 3:e absurd since the elements were theorized to be indestructible. The atomic bomb showed the elements’ ie. plutonium, could be destroyed’ with a heck of a fire. It was 2000 years before this scientific observation was. made. The things that were stated by people as unscientific were only theorized as impossible, not observed as impossible. Actually, there are observations that Christ rose from the dead, which I’ll discuss thoroughly in a later article. Also, I am very aware, Mr. Conrad, of the difficulties of the interpretation of facts, I’m in my 12th philosophy course, Philosophy of Science. The logical positivists argue facts that are bare entities, while Kuhn argues’ they are a function of paradigms (theories]. Since they both have good, but contradictory, reasons, I shall do what the entire scientific community does, and act as though facts-are open to public observation, and are usable. For exam le, it can be publicly observed and tested from uranium to lead s ecay, that a specific rock is 640 million years old, One of the objections that some people may pose to my last column is the hypothesis that God may have ceased to exist since -the time that He created the universe. One logical problem to this is raised by the theories of physics. Recall that the theory stated that space and time were dreated in the. Big Bang. Therefore the cause of the Big Bang is not limited to time. It is difficult to understand how He who is timeless, could pass away or cease to exist in time. However, that is a bit too philosophical! _ Another response to the hypothesis that God has ceased to exist is to show that He still is present and is dramatically changing people’s lives and bodies. In other words, if miracles exist that cannot be explained by science, and that happened in a religious setting+ it would show that God is still around. Let’s look at something that science cannot explain or replicate. Drug addiction is an addiction that is extremely difficult to kick and to stay off of for the remainder of your life. A drug treatment center in Lexington, Kentucky had to close, because it could cure only 4 per cent of those admitted. The very best psycho-social programs have a cure rate of 10 to 15 per cent. Therefore’ when Teen Challenge, a Christian ministry to street kids announced it had a cure rate of 70 per cent+ the drug rehabilitation community was highly skeptical. Surely they were indulging in a bit of evangelical exaggeration. Perhaps they had misplaced a decimal point. Teen Challenge’s claim was spectacular enough that in 1975, the Department of Health+ Education and Welfare in the U.S. dispatched Dr. Catherine Hess and a team of psychiatrists, psychologists’ etc. to investigate the actual cure rate at Teen Challenge. The H.E.W. team used their own criteria for a cure, and followed up people who had graduated from#the program 7 years before. The astute reader will notice there probabl was a bias in the H.E,W. team, in that they probably expecte cr the cure rate to be much lower than claimed. This could make their findings to be lower than the actual cure rate, because of the skeptical bias. The H.E,W, team investigated Teen Challenge’s, program and poked and prodded about. After all their results and follow-up studies were in, they did some computing and found that Teen Challenge was indeed wrong. Their cure rate was not 70 per cent. Their actual cure rate was 86 per cent. Teen Challenge said a person was cured only if he or she never, ever used any dfugs, alcohol, or cigarettes again. The H.E.W. criteria permitted social drinking, and even one or two joints a month. The only significant difference that has been found in the Teen Challenge program is what has been labelled the “Jesus factor” by the drug rehabilitation community. What they mean is that Teen Challenge insists that Jesus is the only person that will cure the addict of drugs. The statistical evidence collected by themDepartment of Health, Education, and Welfare tells us they are right. This story appeared in The Saturday Evening Post, Dec. 1987, in an article on AIDS and drug testing. I invite anyone interested in more evidence that God is alive and transforming lives and bodies by miracles to read, I Believe in Miracles, by Kathryn Kuhlman. One can also look at the miracles in Lourdes, France. At least 15 of them simply cannot be explained in any way by medicine.

Ozone depletion facts skewed by PWViOUS letter! To tbe editor, In the Oct. 11 issue of Imprint, ‘Amit Ghate presented us with the “facts” pertaining to the the. ory that the ozone layer is being depleted, and that this depletion is at leaat in part due to the presence of man-made chlorofluorocarbons [CFCs) in the stratosphere. His first “fact” is that, according to Science, the measured depletion of the ozone layer attributable to CFCs is between o and 0.2 per cent, and cannot be convincingly resolved from natural fluctuations. A more recent issue of Science [March 25, 1s88) reports an announcement by the Ozone Trends Panel ( a. creation of NASA in collaboration with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Federal Aviation Administration, the World Meteorological Organization, and the United Nations Environment Program] that “stratospheric Ozone has indeed decreased during the past 17 years, at some times faeter than predicted.” This conclusion was made after a massive reanalysis of measurements by the discovery that “CFCa create the Antarctic ozone hole every October through various

reactions mediated by ice particles formed at the lowest temperatures of the stratoaThe panel found qhsre. that, after correcting for variation in the instrumentation from one set of data, “a decrease from October 1978 to October 1975 of about 2.5 per cent between 53 degrees North and 53 degrees South or about 0.35 per cent per year. This conservative estimate is only about half of what prominen’t ozone geophysicist fionald heath (Nature , March 17, 1988) and Kenneth Bowman (S&nce, Jan. 1, 1989) have reported, and is “still larger than the decrease that might be attributed to the influence of the sunspot cycle.” The panel also reanalyzed the 179year-long Do‘bson record, data from which was published Jaat year in the article quoted by Mr. Ghate (Scisncs, July 10, 1987) and found similar ozone depletions. According to recent facts issued in a report by the Ozone Trends Panel the 1987 Antarctic Ozone hole loss reaches 50 per cent of total ozone within the hole, was 8 degrees’ Celsius colder than in 1979 fthua more ice particles to mediate ozone destroying reactions), and was

longer lived then it had ever been , since it was first detected, not disappearing until late November, early IDecember. Such ignorance and lack of concern as demonstrated by Mr. Gthate is exactly what organization such as WPIRG are trying

to combat, It is naive and nearsigh-ted to believe that the enormous amount of man-made chemicals regularly released into the earth’s atmosphere have not had a profound effect on the environment and will not increasingly continue to do so. One need look no farther for evidence of this than right here in southern Ontario, where Toronto this summer had record air pollution levels and acid rain continuea to take its toll on the Great Lakes. WPIRG plays an important role on this campus in providing to information ready access about environmental and social justice issues a8 well as providing an outlet through which atudents and community members can act; as such, I feel this organization is a vital part of this university.

1 Faith,,not f.acts are key 1 To the editor, Unfortunately, I have some crosses to bear with the rather certain presumptions of the point of view of Eric Kuelker. The firat one deals with the nature off his argument regarding the ‘big bang’ and the theory behind it. I am rather confused !I the statement equating “in Yinite density” and “nothing.” Aa a former mathematics student I was tauiht that zero multiplied by zero is not necessarily zero, nor infinity. Nothingness is something quite different than infinite density when it cornea to relating uantum physics, eapecially in % igh gravity situations aa reacribed in the big bang mo s ela. Most physicists do indeed support the big bang theory. However, not all agree that this event is necessarily the creation of the universe. Stephen Hawking, a Nobel Laureate and conaidered by many to be the greatest theoretical .physicist since Einstein, in his book The Briaf History of Time, expresses some of his concerns over the beginning of the universe as we know it. He questions whether “the poaaibility that apace-time was finite but had no boundary, which means that it had no beginning no moment of Creation.” And further “But if the ““,‘,“l”;“c”,d really complete1 tained, having no 3: oundaiy 0; edge, it would have neither beginning nor end: it would simply be. What place then, for a creator? How do these facts fit into the Christian myths? If religion must fit the facts of science and nature then Christianity has aome problems. This leads to my second question, What is the limit of Chriatianity? What denominations does it include? The facts that a religion must fit to be real vary not only from religion to religion but between the denominations of those religions as well. Do you include Swedenborgianiam

with its beliefs in spirits and inter-religious salvation within Christianity? It cert airily claims to be part of tlik movement. What about the Catholic &urch with its vastly different ritual of trr)nsubatantion? How can it fit into reality if that reality of faith is .Proteatant?

Who objectif es who? by Trevor

Blair

This article is an opinion piece by an Imprint staff writer, In parts, the article takes on the form of an interview. Thank God for the opinions of others. As with the camera eye, when people focus on anything they invariably unfocus on something else, I like to believe that collectively we can compensate for the blindness of others, while at the same time having our own blindnesses augmented. Thank God for strippers. Although personally I can? say that I attend the shows, I respect the ideal that people can do as they please - to an extent; as someone once said “your right to swing your arms ends khere my nose begins,” or something like that. When Imprint began running ads for The Grand which included references to both male and female strippers, I was vaguely bothered, but ‘acknowledged the club’s bight to advertise to a market that undoubtedly has potential or CUFrent customers. When the ad included a photo of Bet’ty Boobs, the letters started coming. One *guy wanted to know What the hell wae going on? as though he’d never seen a strip club ad before, and others whined about how these ads ruin it somehow for other women. Interestingly, the letters spoke of the objectification of women in the ads, while at the same time making jud’gments upon ‘the. stripper Betty Boobs. She was referred to as

this type of woman and this poor woman, and since the Imprint was accused of being born-again sleaze promoters, I suppose she, along with the establishment and I ad, was considered sleazy. Who is objectifying who? When I look at a strip club ad, the only judgment I make is whether or not I f/eel like seeing a stripper. So then, here is a sweet bit o’ insight - the stripper’s mind to augment the photo. Imprint reporter: How and why did you get involved in etripping? Betty: W&l I had a friend who was a stripper, and she introduced me to her agent, I was a psycho-therapist before I got into it and had a very good practice in Dallas. I was very much into womens’ rights and I think that women have the right to choose a career, So when I had the opportunity to get involved with it - I took it. Have you wer been approacbsd by groupe who attack you because of ybur profession? I never have been personally; I hear a lot about it: I think that women are very beautiful and I think it’s our right, if we want to perform in whatever method that we perform, that it is our right. Do you Teinforce an unhealthy stereotype? I think that women have been dancing since the beginning of time, I think it’s the most beautiful art form there is, Even in the Ballet, if you look at it; they wear really foym-fitting clothes.

If a woman put8 a lot of effort into her body, and she wants to perform this way, I really think that’s her right, and I don’t think it’s the right of any other woman or anybody to say to her that it isn’t. Do you ruin it for other women? Well, I’ll tell you, I have people who came up to me who see my show, and like when you go see U2 or any. rock group, you see them as an image but when you start talking to them you find out they’re people.

Due to the failure of the inclusion of a strip club ad in Imprint to “raise the awareness of sexism on campus” and the success of the actual intention of encouraging students to “continue writing letters to the editor” (Imprint editorial November 41, an interview with a member of the feminist community, and a discussion of sexism in advertising to its extreme manifestations in sex industries follows: The Canadian Coalition Against Media Pornography (CCAMP) grew out of a strong cross-Canada plea for action against the 1983 decision of the pay television station, First Choice to sign a 30 million contract with Playboy enterprises. The contract, a reaction to the lack of interest shown in aying for a movie channel, resu Pted in financial security for First Choice, and gave Playboy enterprises an opportunity at boosting their sales and subscriptions. According to Rose Potvin, a founding member of CCAMP, the 1983 contract announcement succeeded in “creating a r&al furor across this country,” and the reaction filled Canadian newspaper headlines. Through First Choice, Playboy program* ming of sexual explicitness, perhaps pornographycame intb people’s lives. Despite the opportunity to choose whether or not to purchase the channel, Canadians objected to the sudden availability of Playboy programming in the homes of the country, Less than a week after the announcement, many people began calling a women’s group in Ottawa, to which Rose Potvin belonged, asking what can we do?’ They were told to organize protests in their cities, and 18 demonstrations in front of federal and provincial parliament buildings across Canada, along with the formation of CCAMP result ed. Initially, Ms. Potvin explained, the Coalition wanted the CRTC to include a statement prohibiting abusice programming in its television regulations, Currently the CRTC regulations have a statement prohibiting programming that affronts any race, colour, or creed, and the Coalition works toward the inclusion of sex in that statement, The individuals composing CCAMP define pornography as “verbal or pictorial material representing sexual behaviour that is degrading or abusive to one or more of the participants in such a way to endorse the degradation. Pornography differs form erotica, which CCAMP considers to be mutually pleasurable sexual expression between people who have enough power to be there by positive choice. CCAMP does not support the repression of sexuality but rather seeks a new portrayal of mutuality and respect in the rep-n& tion of sexualit .” ’ A pornograp x er, even a fashion magazine ad photographer, portrays women smiling under subordinate and demeaning conditions. Ms. Potvin listened to the story of a woman who had been involved in pornography. She described being bound, gagged and abused,

an4 the words of the pornographer were: “and now you must smile, I get more money for pictures when wbmen smile,” - The smiles say that women like. abuse and choose to be abused: t hat’a what pornography promotes. In this promotion, Ms. Potvin ex lains, “you make them smile in t Re pictures, with a gun to their head perhaps, but you make them smile,” Research has been published to define a cross-section of the “guns” placed to the heads of women in sex industries, explaining the social, . economic and emotion al factors involved in a diverse group of women’s lives, One such “gun,” the multibillion dollar advertising, co& metic, clothing, and fashion magazine businesses and industries pour billions of dollars into creating an idealized’ perfected, unrealistic image of women who will hook in an unlimited market, constantly striving to measure up. The result of not measuring up to this unattainable, perfected image feeds on a person’s insecurities and causes feelings of inadequacy. The idealized image, created by male image-makers, and often female image-makers who themselves define the image in male terms, becomes “real” and worthy of attainment to men and women who rarely view or hear about female role models with strengths and w eaknesses, and bodies, whole personalities and the power to control resourprovide them with ce8 which real choices-in their lives. Women struggle between their desires to celebrate and express their own sexuality, and their need to reject and transform the societal view that: one, women and sex should be used to satisfy male sexual pleasure and two, the male roie as dominator. Linda Clippingbale, Executive Ilirector of the Canadian Research Institute for the Advancement of Women (CRIAW) explained the dilemma “has never found resolution or con.sensus” among feminists, therefore preventing a more unified woman’s protest against sex industries. Ms. Potvin feels the cultural community, which has fought hard for freedom of expressibn, often places a clamp on feminists who work in both the feminist and cultural community. In reas, described by ,jecting porn,

Sheila Jeffrey9 in Out of Focus [The Women’s Press, 1988), “We are not rejecting sex but the prevailing male view of women and sex. But when feminists dare to criticize the way in which sex is currently constructed or suggest their hopes for the future they are accused of moralism.’ Only prudes, it seems, may suggest that sex could take undesirable forms.” Sheila Jeffrieg explains the connection made by John Berger in Wayr of Seeing (1972j, “The surveyor of woman in herself is male, the surveyed female.. Thus she turns herself into an object and most particularly an object of vision: sight.” Women who do take up the cause face many obstacles and great backlash as our. society reacts to the perceived threat of new female roles and images by reinforcing the belief that women need to be put in their place’. The sex industries exist for men to use tiomen and sex for money, and not allow women to express their sexuality, However, some women continue to support the male defined roles of women by choosing to be part of the sex industry where they can express their male-defined sexua ality, instead of working in the oft en frustrating women’s movement which continues strive toward a female-defined sexuelity and, recognizes that other alternatives for this type of self-defined. sexual expression rarely exist. Ms. Potvin suggests that the roles of women in the sex industry are defined by men and serve men by stating that “no little girl at six or seven ‘when I grow up I really want to work in a strip bar, or I really ivant to be beaten.“’ Ms. Potvin extends her belief in the harm of pornography, to strip clubs and beauty pageants: “The connection is there if you. look at the basis of what is harmful to women - it’s degrading,’ it’s subordination.” She explained the way subordination works through her discovery of the content of pornography. 3 The Playboy programming portrayed “a bunch of men sitting around in lawn chairs on Hugh Hefner’s front lawn while a bunch of ‘sweet young things’ in their twenties with big breasts hanging out of their blouses were dancing around the pool, and climbing up a grease pole, and they were mud wres-

tling... and all the men were sitting around clapping. It was like a circus or a zoo-; the women were performing for the men.” “Magazines have been around for ages: most of us who’hadn’t seen a Playbo or a Penthouse just assumed t x ey were the same as they were the last time we’d seen one in the fifties... carefully air brushed. You never saw the pubic region... But when we started to look at them in ‘83 they had changed quite dramatically. They were then into women with their legs spread-apart, all binds of things being shoved up her vagina, and it’s been quite sick. People who maybe would havp retested, frankly, didn’t notice Ii ecause it’s the kind of thing that doesn’t enter our lives until we go out and look at it. Or it enters our lives, but very subtly. Women wonder why there are men in the work place who put you down, and think of you as demeaning, and wouldn’t consider you for a promotion, and assume that all men are supeiior.., they read magazines that say: women are stupid; women are only on the face of this earth to entertain men sexually; women like being beaten; women must be kept in their place,” “The December ‘84 issue of - yes there was nudPenthouse ity. But the nudity was of a

woman tied up ao tiihtly in ropes that her body looked like a roast of pork... the rope between her legs atid across her breasts. No we don’t have a problem with nudity. But we sure have a problem with that kind of nudity. It% not because she’s nude; it’s because she’s tied up.” The business of advertising enforces the stereotypical image of women as inferior, submissive, and subservient. While men in magazine ads are most often shown standing, facing the viewer directly, women are shown on the ground or floor in unassertive poses. The female is laid back, crunched up, has one hand over her forehead as though weak or in distress, being forced up against a wall by a man, holding onto a man (ex. his leg], or leaning back on a man. Very outdated images frequently portray women’s place in society as the home doing housework, and serving food or beverages to the man. Unnaturally, the woman portrays ecstasy in doing household work. Big ticket items and decisions predominately are made by men, and male voice over8 in commercials convince women to abandon years of experience and intelligence to support the male supported product. The portrayal of women as sex

Dispersion vs. concentration in Waterloo by Wendy Rhlla , Federation Vice-Pmidant Where will we put the student houses in our city? This will be the focus of a public meeting to be held on Wednesday, November 30,. at 7%) p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Waterloo City Centre, 100 Regina Street South in Waterloo. The Planning Department has published a student housing discussion paper which &akes a number of assumptions and offers 5 options as to where studenta coild reside in Waterloo. The paper assumes that the number of students living in

and I think that they have the right to look at what they want to look at, and they’re not children anymore, So if they want to look at a lot of different ads and say this is where I choose to spend my evenings, I think that’s their right. I don’t think they should go intb that sort of repressive thing - saying that students aren’t adults and shouldn’t ’ be able to have those ads in the paper. I think the important thing that the feminists don’t understand is that we are women, and the big fight they seem to have is to be able to succeed financially and intellectually, and dancing gives.a lot of women that ability, So for a feminist to be attacking someone out there who is a woman doing what she feels- that is wrong, All of us out here doing it are very independent, very strong willed people. It seems to me what we’re doing is what all feminists have been fighting for. Ok, I’ll admit not all strippers are going to be as intelligent as Betty, but regardless of the situation, there is alwa s a person behind the ad and 3:ehind the stripper. . Is there a conspiracy of degradation? Is there still something sinister, (despite Betty’s reassuring words), going on? I think strippers are largely ‘an honest, external force in relation to the ills of the world. If there are inherent flaws in us all, perhaps strippers help reveal the bad along with t@.+ good. The Earth is not simple “enough a place that strippers can be held accountable for our flaws, and in this age of AIDS perhaps the witch hunt for a sexual scapegoat has found its second wind. Observation is an interaction and the Rorschach value of the Betty Boobs ad has, I think, bent the accusing fingers back. As I’ve said, the opinions of others are priceless. The issue of the strip ad may soon be forced to a vote at Imprint - a major factor is staffs perception of campus attitude. I believe Waterloo students are mature enough that reality doesn’t have to be censored from them. Strangely no one has indicated their support - not necessarily for the ad, but for the ideal that it has a right to, be in this student newspaper.

- dictates where we should live- in Waterloo This paper in its attempt to accommodate community concerns about student housing has in fact recommended 2 options that would effectively segregate students to certain areas of the city. We, as students should object in principle to a City of Waterloo-sanctioned meeting to

discuss where it would be desirable to house students in this community. Once agein our status as “students” has become a consideration regarding where we should reside in Waterloo. Brian Trushinski, the author of the paper has indicated that about 20 copies of the.,paper are given out on a daily basis.

Dreams in the Batcave

he a fa’rs 1 toOtal I war

by Derek Weiler Imprint staff

Three cheers for Phil’s Grandson’s Place for making a commitment to brtig quality live bands to Waterloo. Things kicked off there Tuesday night with a blockbuster show from the Dream Syndicate. Playing excellent tunes spanning their entire career, DS turned in one of the best Waterloo shows this year. Sometime after eleven, they ambled out, and after some preliminary strumming from Steve Wynn, charged into a full tilt runthrough of HaIlowe’en, from their first album. Batidleader Steve Wynn delivered confident vocals and slashing rhythm guitar. To Wynn’s left, bassist Mark Walton also shone throughout the show. Arid to Wynn’s right was lead guitarist Paul Cutler, looking like a zombie risen to feast on human flesh. Many of Cutler’s explosive solos were performed from half-crouch, and with his eyes shut tight; he gave every indication of being ready to shuffle off this mortal coil. If there was a weak spot in the band’s attack, it was the consistently mundane and uninspired playing of drummer Dennis Ducks. The band ran through some of the best tunes of their four-album career, including Still Holding onto You and Burn from Medicine Show, and Now I Ride Alone and Boston from Out of tjH! Grey. Especially cool were the new songs from Ghost Stories: abrasive, kickass rockers like See That My Grave is Kept Cleun [great tit la!), Weathered and Torn and Loving the Sinner Hating the Sin, The softer side of the band, as evidenced by the piano ballads on Ghost Storiaa, was largely ignored, as they played it hard and fast. Each song was coated in sandpaper guitars and

With the creepiest opening line of any song in years (“I got, a page one story buried in my yard.. . “), , the sting just couldn’t miss. For the most part, the spot light was on Paul Cutler, as he wandered into the audience [we thought he was going to pass out right onto our table) and coaxed all kinds of wonderful noises

+‘Que sera, sera? “Wrong tense.” For Gregory, Marnie, Barbara and Keith, nuclear war has finally come home. Mississauga is dust, and only the refuge of Keith’s backyard bombshelter has saved the four from a similar fate. Fortunately, says one of the characters in David Carley’s play First Strike, all that’s changed are the verb tenses. . Bombshelter life soon degenerates into an ideological aparring match between K&h, a market-driven air conditioner manufacturer, and Greg, a socialist school teacher. The tension of the argument is punctuated by the mere existence of the gun Keith has revealed himself to possess, a gun that eventually becomes as important to the characters as survival. First Strike is funny. As the survivors search the radio dial for signs of life, they tune into a CBC emergency broadcast that concludes with a song from Ann Murray. The situation can’t be that bad, one remarks, if they’re still obeying Canadian content regulations, Marnie’s sorrow over her vaporized, and dead, dog soon turns to a fascination with.Trivial Pursuit, and her incessant questioning only fuels the conflict between Keith and Greg. At one point her companions begin to practice Tai Chi, and Marnie characteristically cries out: “75 per cent of the world’s known population has gone sttrk raving mad.” Carley puts his characters through nuclear holocaust and makes us laugh, but the play must be experienced to understand how Carley has not written a comedy about nuclear war. Finally, the characters create out of their survival the same relationships that precipitated the war, and, in a most powerful way, Carley pronounces his judgment against the bomb.

Crossfire

R.E.M. finds rainbow

by Cl& Imprint

Wodakou staff

connedtion

While U2 appears bent on ruthless self-apotheosis, making each successive album the next chapter in their myth, REM, has moved inward: while U2 makes grand, sweeping gestures and bows, REM. makes songs. More succinctly, while U2 have grown larger than life, R.E.M. have grown smaller, more candid, and more idiosyncratic. RattleAnd Hum and Green are crucial albums in the careers of both bends, having followed upon months of hype and anticipation - Rattle And Hum has arguably lived up to its billing, but Green has surpassed it. Green, I think, will be remembered as an audacious, daring classic in its own small, unassuming way, and with the exception of a couple of throwaway songs, it stands with their greatest work, on a par with the best moments of Chronic Town and Murmur. But R.E.M. is a very ‘different band this time out - different not only from the moody, jangly, Byrdishband that made ourmur and Reckoning, but also from the band that made Life’s Rich Pageantor even Document, their laat album. Comparisons of one new band after another to R.E.M. will only multi ly with Green: the plurality o F sounds and influences is immense, each song having its own personality and integrity. Green also could be the vindication of Michael Stipe as a lyricist. As elusive and teasing as ever, Orange Crush, the single about the defoliant Agent

so f ere it is, R.E.M.‘a followuptot weir wildly (for them) suecessfu . Document. There are bound to be misgivings about this record (are th6y shooting for that U2 level? have they sold out?), but I’m happy to say that the switch to Warner Bras. hasn’t blunted the band’s power. Green is yet another bona-fide masterpiece from the best band of the ’80s. Yes, they diduse Scott Litt on ‘production again, and yes, Green is the moat accessible, hit-likely R.E.M. album to date. But before the cries of “Sellout” fill the air, it should be noted G-n is a genuine step away from the I&umerit sound. At the same time, it’s totally recognizable 1as R.E.M.; they’re clearly applying lessons learned in the past. This time out, R.E.M. has fashioned a record that is decidedly more upbeat than their previous efforts. As vocalist Mcbael Sti e siys in the prese release, the aP bum ia “meant to be very uplifting.,, because this isn’t the time for cynicism. There.8 #ways h,opd’ Perhaps this ties in with the album’s U.S. election day release date; what better reason for renewed hope than the end of the Reag~ regime? ‘ Not that ‘the band ha lost its political bite.

World IJNI&~ Pretend is a first-person porti;‘ait of a maniac who’s lost control of his world. Another disturbing number is California, which foretells the end of the world, earthquake style. But for the most part, Green is a heppy album. The singer in Wrong Child announces he “will try to sing a ha py song” and concludes that K e’s ‘“not supposed to be like this but it’s OK.” Stand, the record’s most goodtimey cut, is a sort of generalized call-to-arms, as is Get U . The bput its closing aong i8 uqtitled, key line, is that “This song is here to keep you strong.” And Hairshirt offers what is perhaps the album’s central message, that “It’s a beautiful life.” Musically, this is the mellowest R.E.M, dburn since Reco+ atruction of thy Fable. But while Frblee sputtered and stalled, Green scores. While Fableu waa murky and moody, Green is wistful and dreamy; while Fablss was off-putting, Green ie ‘.-x warm and inviting. On the bailada that define the album: R.E,M,- doesn’t jangle . they tinkle. Even the more rocking song8 - Pop song, Stand, the untitled one - have a subdued quality about them. Maybe it’s the crystal-clear produCtion; these songs are solid rays of light, not penetrated by darkness and chaos, as Document wa0. This is altie one of the most musically experimental R.E.M. albums. Striking mandolinplaying is feature$ on a number of songs (indeed, songs like You Are Everything and Hairshirt are highly reminiscent of - dare I say it - Led Zeppelin’s Battle of Evermore). World ‘Leader Pretend features I some fine steel guitar and superb piano. A bouncy organ riff opens Stand, while the chirping of crickets introduces You Are EVA erything. Wrong Child features overlapping, multi-tracked vocals from atipe. Mechanical whirs and drones abound on the record - check out the helico ter sounds on Orange Crush. T R e bandmembers even switched roles for a couple of tunes, as Peter Buck banged the drums. and Bill Berry took over on guitar. For all the experimentation, though, this record is a8 consfstent a8 R.E.M.‘s best. In an article in Mebdy M&r last month, Peter Buck explained that the title of the album as representing “health and growth and all that.” Green doe8 indeed represent _ both health and growth: this is REM. at the peak of their form - better than ever, and yet offering a distinct departure from the tried-and-true sound of D~HZU~ merit.

arist Tommy Accused, has a unique, searing style that would impress any metal-god wannabe, Unfortunately, what precious little this L.P. has to o;ffer is immediately obliterated as soon as “vocalist” Blaine Fart emits hiB first blood-curdling shrieks: Take the worst heavy metal or thrash crooner you’ve ever subjected your ears to and multiply his grotesqueness by ten times. At this point you’ll have an idea of Mr. Fart’s vocal prowess, At best, his voice exhibits all the tonal quality of an electric shaver. At his worst, he sound8 like a laughing hyena being disembowelled with a fishing knife, Even when The Accused attempt to rise above the standard metal song content bf singing about child abuse and the evils of heavy drugs, the listener must consult the lyric sheet to get the slightest idea of what the hell they’re screaming about. Enough said. It’s not difficult to fork out $15 or more for imported pecords, when you know that The Accused from Seattle have an album available in Canada for regular prices. good. By no means is it as inspired as his earlier albums, nor is it as lyri’cally captivating. It ia an interesting collection of contrasting music though, thoughtfully composed and +carefully re-. corded. De Burgh, along with the capable backing band of Adrian Lee, Andy Richards, Phil Palmer; Pete Van Hooke, and Chris White, skim along each lightly-textured track with a toned-down passion and precision. Most of the songs on the album feature De-Burgh scat-singing at least one catchy melody, which the listener will invariably find themselves humming later on, His lees-intricate lyrics have paved the way for simpler, much more accessible music. True to his style, the album is speckled with trademark sugary ballads.

Five Years ago, when asked about Ministry’s music, head minister Alain Jourgensen said “Nothing about our sound is sweet: I’m constantly jabbing at everything I can get my sticky hands on, so the vocals algne’and the lyrical content will make something that isn’t pop.” This quote was taken in regards to With Sympathy, the now infamous (and rather rare) major label debut Ministry album, Infamous because Mr. Jourgensen quickly disowned it and it’s unabashed synth-pop stylings, and rare becau8e it went relatively unnoticed and is out of print. Five years later, lots of water has passed under the bridge. Jourgensen parted ways with percussionist/keyboardist Ste-

by Derek Weilar Imprint staff Perhaps the worst thing about Albert Goldman’s novel The Lives of John Lemon is its sneering, highbrow contempt for rock ‘n’ rali itself, Imagine, the documentary .on Lennon’s life, and its accompanying double-LP soundtrack, is a polite “Fuck You” to Goldman. The sheer power of Lennon’s music on this album affirms rock’s worth, and is as eloquent .a refutation of Carry Me, and Suddenly Love both sound like they’re about to break into the chorus of Lady in Red, which can be goad or bad. Just A Word Away, a love song from a father to his infant child, is sincerely moving and the regal Riseh Lord is both powerful and touching. A Night On The River . is well worth the price of admission. It’s slick guitar-work and punchy sax break make it reminiscent of early Dire Straits material (Sax ‘player Chris White toured with Dire Straits on their final tdur,) Leather On My Shoes is De Burgh’s offering’to the latest. trend in spiritual singing. The song’s chant is infectious and is destined to be a -‘crowdpleaser’ on hi8 8upport tour, The album’s weaker songs are just plain awful. With the amount of wonderful musicianship and song quality on this album,+? a shame it has to be freckled with sub-standard materiel. Tender Hands is a shameful romp that sounds more like Bonnie Tyler than Chris De Burgh, and The Last Time I Cried is .a repetitive bore. a Despite very few shortcom-

performances highlight the incredible depth of Lennon’s. songwriting cmmmns: from naked insecurity (Help!, IeaIous Guy) to not-so-idyllic childhood memories (JuUo, Mother) to religious doubts (God, Imagine) to social comment (Revolution, Give Peace Q Chance). The album tracks Lennon’s musical growth equally well, from the fresh vibrancy of the early Beatles recordings to sonic collages, like Stra wherry Fields Forever and A Day in the Life, to the more straightforward Plastic Ono Band approach. Besides the inevitably excellent Beatles stuff, highlights include the plaintive JeaZous Guy, the painfully ironic (in that it was released just before Lennon’s death) Starting Over, and two of Lennon’s best’ solo sonns.‘God and Mother. 4 Of co&e, any project that

And my vote for :Most Sinful Omission goes to You’ve Got to Hide your Love,Away, one of the best songs the Beatles ever released. But this is just nitpicking, and doesn’t change the fact -that Imagine is a fine chronicle of one of rock’s most important artists. If you ever feel tempted to break .down and buy that sleazy book, go see Imagine, or buy the soundtrack, instead.

Cans of filmsex by Jim Harman Impti@ st et f Holy tumoli, another animated feature at Waterloo’s favourite cinema sight for those in the know. But wait, this is not just your average cartoon flick, it’s Outragseur Animation. Aahaa, the advertising assures of the content through ima es of rubenesque women in bat a tubs, sales clerks with cans of sex (snicker) and cute mice screaming in fright, terrorized b a cleaver wielding Neander tyhal. Wow, this could be better than Rambo Meats Debbi and They Both Do Dellas. This is definitely ,not a film to take mom to.

Well, living up to expectations aroused by such a campaign could be difficult. Expanded Entertainment has thrown together a diverse collection of animated shorts, the only criteria for selection is that each one must be offensive to at least someone. They succeeded admirably, Thus, within the span of only 82 minutes, the brave and fortunate ticket holders will witness nose picking, vomiting dogs, peasantry covered from head to toe with genitalia, and defecation. The viewer will also witness great leaps of quality, from bad to worse to gross. Personally, I thought it was great. There was the occasional weak effort (par-

ticularly the first few], but &erall, the genre once again demonstrated its advantages over live film, Watch for Jac Met and Rad Boy... Go and Lupo the Butcher and you’ll see what I mean. . Outrugaous Animation drawa from an international array of animators (nationalists may be disappointed with The Haploid Affair] and once again, som.e of the most innovative (and the only political] efforts conic from Eastern Europe.

Happy.in Camelot by Renete Sander-k&v Imprint staff The tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table heve captivated people for tenturies. Camelot, a musical based on the destructive Arthur -. Guenevere - Lancelot triangle of love and friendship, is one of my favourite musicals. I was delighted to see it presented,by Kitchener - Waterloo MusicaIr Productions at the Centre in the Square on Sunday, November 20,

We all know the story of King Arthur, Guenevere, Lancelot and the Round Table. If you don’t, shame on you. The- tales of Camelot are’ among the most famous legends [based on his torical fact?] of all time; you should read about them the next chance you get. Camelot, the musical, is adapted from T.H. White’s The Once and Future King and features such classic tunes as “Camelot,” “How to, Handle a Woman,” and “If Ever I Would Leave You.” Some people find the story and the lyrics exaggeratedly mushy, some find them gloriously romantic. ,My companion is one of the former, so he found the performance boring; I am one of the latter, so I was enraptured by the whole show. I don’t mean to imply the production was flawless. The cosiumes were a little too colourful for my taste; I can’t help but think that. Arthur and his subjects would have been a little more sober in their dress. Merlyn was especially overdone, with his mighty headdress of puffy hair and beard (a little topheavy] and his flashy robe and staff, Would Merlyn have wanted to be that conspicuous?

The set I found a little too elaborate; I feel that Arthur would have lived in more simple surroundings. Both the set and the costumes tended to distract from the dialogue, songs and overall story. The way the overall set worked, however, was very effective. In the scenes where Arthur was outside the castle, or in the throne room where he appeared with his subjects, the curtain was up and the whole stage and backdrop were used. In .the scenes where Arthur interacted with with fewer people in his private chambers, the curtain was down and used as a backdrop. The action took place l

Could

at t-he front of stage (the apron) and allowed for the stage crew to change the set behind the curt ain. Although. this method of changing sets is commoti, scenes that take place on the apron are often short and obviously stuck out in front of the curtain to allow for the set change behind. But in this production of Camelot, the apron scenes were very natural. I wouldn’t have expected them to take place anywhere else. The acting and voices were good all around. Deborah Ludolph was superb as Guenevere. She made her character come

Devin Dalton’s Lancelot was appealing and appropriate - enthusiastically naive and sincerely conceited. Terry Doyle’s King Pellinore was a most colourful character and often added just’ the right touch of comic relief. Worthy of mention 1 is also Chris Kitowski’s Mordred - a little exaggerated, in m opinion, but effectively pitifu Y, sneaky and evil. The overall. staging of the piece was fine, but nothing special. The spark in most of the scenes came from. the choreography which was well-timed and calourful. One scene, in particular sticks out in my mind: Act II, scene 5 in the Camelot courtyard. Gone were the fancy costumes; the chorus wore long, brown,’ hooded cloaks. Subtle flames engulfed the castle in the backdrop, and mist rose around the actors. crownless and Guenevere, garbed in simple dress, was tugged around the stage during her trial and up to the moment she was tied to the stake to be burned for treason. Arthur, all the while, was standing in the forefront, lamenting his plight, with Mordred periodically leaping out of the mist to taunt him. That scene was more powerful and moving than all the others put together. The production cou\d have used more such imressive kcenes, but they probarl ly would have clashed with She fancy costumes and ornate set obviously a priority with Kitchener - Waterloo Musical Productions.

Howevhr York ie having defensive troubles, giving up almost five goals a game.

! Schneider-powered by Mike McGrati Imprint staff The Waterloo Warriors hasketball team did some globetrotting last weekend, heading below the 49th parallel to St. John Fisher College in Rochester, ’ N.Y. for the Cardinal-MONY Invitational tournament+ UW, the only Canadian contingent in the four team draw, checked back. through customs with third place after trouncing Concordia College (NY.), 76-65. The Wariiors dropped a 74-69 overtime squeaker on Saturday to the host St. John Fisher Cardinals. Waterloo’s pre-season record sits at 7-4. St. John Fisher took its own tourney crown with a 95-86 triumph over Gettysburg College (Penn.) in Sunday’s champion-

ship final. Gettysburg dumped Concordia, 103-8’3 in Saturday’s other first round game, Once again, the Warriors were carried on the shoulders of captain, guard Tom Schneider, who poured in 57 points for the weekend, Is the Warriors’ game still too dependent on Schneider’s heroics? “Yes it is,” replied head coach Don McCrae.” But a little leas so than in the Naismith. We’re working at-lt. The inconsistency of so many players is scary.” You’ll recall that in Waterloo’s Naismith Classic, Schneider s’cored 91 of his team’s 206 points, After Saturday night’s first half against the hometown Cardinals, the Warriors probably wished they’d been denied access to the U.S. at the border. In their opening game of the Beaeon, l

In the early third, Waterloo suffered from amnesia, forget. ting the brilliant defensive work that to this point earned them . seven straight scoreless periods, Buitenhuis was caught pinching in, leaving Bishop to face a two-on-one. The Waterloo netminder anticipated the pass and covered up smartly on the big rebound.

Vacation cut short The Warrior vacation was cut short as coach McKee sent them once more into the trenches. Steve Richards thundered a drive at the Windsor net. Linseman pounced on the ricochet off the post, putting it home with nine minutes left in the game, completing his hat trick and a five point afternoon, The final scoring play was typical of the Lancer misfortunes of the afternoon. A harmless shot from the point ,was deflected off Todd Coultef’s stick by bewildered goaler Paliani to complete the 8-O thrashing.

Warriors punished the Lancer big men, Shane Whelan and J.D. Urbanic. Waterloo controlled centre ice, not allowing Windsor to organize their potierplay, Ian Pound scraped the puck up ice along the boards and carried it over the blue stripe. He fed forward Jim David who wristed it off the post and in with 5% remaining in the period. Linseman closed out the scoring in the second frame. Tsandelis passed to Glover behind the net who fed it to the short slot and the waiting centre who made it count at 18:26. Paliani faced 13 shots in the second while Bishop had little work turning aside five,

Currexitly, the University of -Western Ontario Mustangs lead the Central division tied with York in points but having two games in hand over the Yeomen and one over Waterloo. Mustangs’ dynamic goaltending dtio of Steve Titus and Mike James along -with McGill’s Jamie Reeve lead the OUAA in goals against with sparkling 2.30 werages. Bishop’s two shutduts cut his goals-against to 2.72 as the UW hunt is on. The Warriors get a chance to move into second place in the Central Division as they host the York University Yeomen at 2:30 p.m. Sunday in the Columbia -Walk-In Freezer. The following Friday, December 2, Waterloo play at home against the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks at 7:30 p.m.

Warriors. split in NJ.. 1 the psyched-up Cardinals stormed to a 43-23 halftime lead. Simply put, Waterloo was pathetic. The Warriors sunk a measly four field goals in the opening stanza, and hit just Is-of23 free throws. “It was ridiculous,” cornmented McCrae.“It was an embarrassing situation for us -we played terribly.” But talk about rising from the dead. Using a bizarre personnel scheme, the Warriors clawed back from the z&point deficit to tie it, 66-68 after regulation. What was ao bizarre? McCrae kept the same five players on the floor for the entire second half, Schneider, Andy Zienchuk, Lance Lockhart, Jeremy Moore and John Clark were the only UWi players to 886 court time in the second stanza.

“Some happened rr;E~;ei

Schieider led UW with 24 points, while the ever-improving Zienchuk drained all of his 16 in the second half. Clark added eight and Moore chipped in six. _ “In the confusion of getting this club sorted out, Andy’s been a real bright spot,*’ praised McCrae. “This game had some good news and some bad news but

out-

standing in the second half.” The Warriors encountered little difficulty in disposing of Concordia College, as Schneider potted 33 points. Clark and Mciore pitched in 12 and 11 respectively, “It was a game we won five times,” eaid McCrae, referring to the fact that the UW lead fluctu-

ated between 12 and five points. A positive chord was struck in Sunday’s game, as the Warriors racked up a rare 42 rebounds on the day, a category which has been the club’s Achilles heel thus far, The Warriors began a three day tournament at the University of Toronto yesterday [Thursday], facing Dalhousie in the opening round, The tourney includes Regina, Brock, McMaster, York, Ryermn and the hosts, U of T. This is Waterloo’s last action until December 28 when the Warriors play at the York Excalibur tournament in Toronto. The regular season begine anuary 4 at the PAC when UW h ostg the Cuelph Gryphpns.

Dinos maul Huskies Wtake by Tim

Walker

After successful coverage of the 1887 Vanier Cup, the Warrior Soccer Action News team was almost begged to cover the fall classic again. Protracted negotij ations regarding their benefit package resulted in the lads deciding to covgr this most presti. gious of all gridiron events one pore time. After a problem developed with the procuring of some film and another delay with finiehing some of the worst tasting Jello, the lads have ever encountered we got to the stadium a little bit late. Thia kept the lads’ record of never having made it anywhere exactly on time unblemished. This year’s game featured a match up between the Atlantic Bowl Champions the Saint Mary’s University Huskies and the Central Bowl Champs the University of Calgary Dinosaurs.

Back-up pivot slashes Vanier passing recorc@

Vanier exciting part of the game. Thirty-one of the game’s seventy-five points- were scored in the fourth. The first big play was a Vanier Cup record 46 yard field goal by D&lug. This kick barely made it as ii thudded off the crossbar and then careened over for three points. A SMU touchdown closed the score to 31-21 for U of c* Thti tmning point in the game occurred during the next SMU possession, With the momentum on their side and already into the Calgary territory, SMIJ threw an interception. Dave He&on, the defensive player of the game, returned the ball 75 ysrds for a touchdown and a Vanier Cup record. On their next series SMU threw another interception and after an 86 yard run (Vanier Cup record) by quarterback Torrance, U of C scored another touchdown pushing the score to 45 -23.

Listless first quarter

Collapse was complete It was a lackluetre and listless 1st quarter in which the only scoring was a single after the St. Mary’s kicker fakled at splitting the ‘uprights; after he missed to the left from really, really, really close in (26 yards) the game

Bill Scollard, normally Flynn. Scollard broke

a punter, did a v8hnt job filling in for injured records for passing attempts and cwf@etionS. started to pick up. Actually, there was one exciting play in the first half. This was a 47 yard pass completion by Calgary quarterback Torrance. The second quarter was much more exciting and resulted-in 18 Calgary points and 7 SMU points. The first Calgary touchdown was set up by three Tarrance passes for a total 106 yards. The major belonged to the game’s outstanding offensive La er, Sean Furlong. Furlong lx a two touchdowns on the day.

Half-time stats showed U of C at 192 total yards to SMU’s 144. In the first half, Calgary eetablished its runnin . ime as both teams appeare B very weak against the pass.

SMU could only ‘reply with a touchdown. After Calgary pulled out ahead 21-8 with a 27 yard field goal, the SMU Huskies came back with another touchdown, again on a reception by Nealoh. Nealon finished the game with 135 yards on 10 catches. At 21-15 the Dinos pushed downfield again and scored on a reception by Furlong, This left the score a’t P8-15. The, 4th quarter was the most

The next SMU possession completed the collapse. A fumble at midfield and the subaequent 5$ yard romp by Dinosaur running back Zimmmerman finished the scoring, Final score of the game was the University of Calgary Dinosaur8 52 - The Saint Mary’s University Huskies 23.

Although the Rcore indicates a complete blowout, the game was not that much of a mismatch. The score at 5:~ of the 4th quarter ias only U of C 31- SMU 23. It was drily the 4th quarter offensive ineptitude of the SMU offence that allowed Calgary to run away with the game. SMU lost the game-for two reasona. First of all, SMU was unable to stop the U of % running game. The Calgary Dinosaurs outgained SMU 288 to 78 on the ground. Secondly, although Bill Scollard played a great game, Chris Flynn, the Hec Crighton Trophy winner a8 the outstanding university football pla er in Canada, probably woul d not have thrown those balls. On the day, the Dinosaurs proved for the third time in the 19808 that they are the predominant team in Canadian university football. .

Vaughn falls short in .bid for award by Tim Walker

to the little guy who does Sportsdesk o-n TSN talk some more the awards presentation got underway. The first award bf the night was the Peter Gorman Trophy for the rookie of the year. This award was not the least bit exciting as Warrior rookie kicking star and all around nice guy Peter Tchir was left inexplicably off the ballot. The winner of this anticlimactic award was Grent !$a;;:, a running back at Mt. ’ The second award was the J4P. Metras Trophy for the lineman of the year. This award was won

On the night of November 17, the 1988 Outstanding Player Awards for C.I.A.U. football were presented at the Hilton International in Toronto. Normally, these awards are of no concern to Waterloo students. However, This year the Waterloo Warriors football team’s star defensive back, Larry Vaughn was nominated for the President’s Trophy. This trophy is awarded annually to the top defensive player {non-lineman) in Canadian University Football.

in position to cover all possibilitiee. The Nominees for this award were Leroy Blugh, a behemoth linebacker and three time President’s Trophy nominee from Bishop’s; Scott Dunthome, a St. Mary’s linebacker: Mark Singer, an Alberta linebacker and of course Larry “Heart and Soul of the Bombshelter” Vaughn, the top defensive player in the 0.LLA.A. andsundqubtably the finest artist in C.I.A.U. history (See Larry at the Bombshelter Monday through Friday

nights to discuss hia reasonable rates). As had been the case all night as each nominee assaulted the stage, game clips were shown on a large screen adjacent to the stage. On the basis of Mr. Vaughn’s clip the Hec Crighton Trophy should have been his. However, when the award was announced our hero had been left out in the cold. The winner was Blugh who was definitelv deserving of the award as hi had already been nominated twice

before, The final award of the night was the Hec Crighton trophy for the player of the year. This award was given to Chris Flynn the St. Mary’s quarterback who waa unfortunately unable to play in the Vanier Cup due to a skull fracture. After the event the Warrior Soccer News Team rushed back to Waterloo to catch last call at the St. Patrick’s Dav Warm up at the Bombshelter. ”

Yes, Imprint made its annual foray into the world of rocks and houses to get the inside scoop on the game that’s sweeping the land. The fast and furious action occurred at the Ayr curling club, an excellent curling facility with a well appointed bar. Fine curling form was shown by all. Prizes were given. Imprint staffers got drunk and fell down.

The Waterloo Athenas squash team kept their winning streak alive last weekend, winning 25 of 25 matches at the first half of the annual Can-Am Tournament at York University. Teams involved were Waterloo, U of T, and York from Canada, and Dartmouth [New Hampshire), Williams (Massachusetts) and Vassar (New York]. Toronto finished second with 18 points, Dartmouth had 13, Williams scored 11, Vassar notched five, and York clinched three. The American teams were playing softball, a very different game from hardball which is played in the U.S. The Athenas will have to play bardball in January where they compete in part II of the Can-Am tournament which will be played at V.assar College just outside New York City. The Athenas number, one player, Louis.e Wai@, played her usual strong game, easily taking 15 games in 5 matches, without giving up a single game, The team is not sure if it was the multi-coloured grip, th6 bright yellow outfits or the neon green goggles, but Waite’s successful weekend certainly helped the Athenas. Diane Lee, Athlete of the Week B few weeks ago, also had a very successful weekend, winning all five of her matches, 3-0. Captain Diane Hutchison had a tough first match, but she played tough to win 3-Z against U of T, After that, Hutchison sailred throug,h her next four matches, 3-O. Sandy Brundle continued her impressive showing, winning 15 games and losing one.
