On Tuesday, March 14, approximately 3,000 visitors - secondary school students and their parents, will arrive on campus for the 17th Annual Campus Day. For most of ua. it wasn't so long ago that we were choosing a university. Remember the process? Remember how you appreciated whatever help you could find? Well, we are in a position to, help visitors and leave them with a positive impression of Waterloo. Many students across campus already are involved in Campus Day as tour guides, bus drivers, programme assistants and spokespeople. The rest of us have the opportunity to beambassadors for ihe-day. When the chance arises, s lease be there for the visitors. Provide assistance, directions or idvice. A conversation with you might make the difference. You actually might recognize some of the visitors. Likely, there will be at least one person arriving from your high school. Visitors come from all over Ontario to participate in this day's activities.

’ Confidential report urges tuition’inctiease .e by Peter drown and . Mike Sara Imprint staff
the discussion of this issue is in the university hallways and classrooms, not behind closed doors,” stated Shelley Potter, OFS Chairperson. “At the very least, the OFS expects complete disclosure of all the circulating proposals in order that a proper discussion can take place with full student participation,” she said.
7 Tuition increases seem to be .17 on everyone’s lips these days. A ‘.. Queen’s University report proi poses increases of $125 per year, ; on top of inflation, over the next five years according fo a press release from the Ontario Federation of Students. The discovery of this report The report’s recommendations comes at an appropriate time. On mean a first year student’s tuiMonday, three presidents of Ontion would leap from $1,536 in tario universities, representing 1989/90 to $2,410 in 1993/94, if the COU, spoke in front of the inflation were included. Standing Committee on Finance The confidential report+ oband Economic Affairs at Queen’s , tained by the OFS, is titled OntaPark. They called the status quo rio Universities: A Blueprint for ‘*a blueprint for mediocrity,” and Action, and is currently being said that capping enrollment is circulated to all Ontario univera the only real alternative to tuisity Boards of Governors by the tion hikes. They do not believe Council of Ontario Universities that accessibilitywould be harmed by increased tuition. The OFS is angered by the
l
(COU]
cation, they said, and tuition today would be 600 dollars more per year if it had been increased by the inflation rate since 1967. But Potter attacked the COU’s position, saying that the average student already graduates from university with a $12,000 debt, and increased tuition fees could only add to the forty per cent who cannot afford university. UW President Douglas Wright, speaking to Imprint, echoed some of the ideas of the COU, but stopped short of supporting the specific proposals of the Queen’s report. He did agree with the report’s desired ratio of student to government contributions: I to 2.5 or 3. Right now, each student dollar is matched by four dollars in government grants.
Wright said that students do not recognize the crisis facing universities because they don’t have anything to compare it to. “Students weren‘t around. . . . fifteen years ago, when it was better, and they don’t go to visit universities in Alberta or Alabama.” The average American public university receives $8,680 [in Canadian dollars) from their state’s government, compared to $5250 in Ontario, according to figures compiled by UW’s Operations Analysis. Wright went on to say that universities need more money, and that it must come from increases in both tuition and government grants. He called the option of obtaining significant funds from the private sector “not possible.”
He did not suggest a level for tuition, but ‘noted that tuitton fees are at ‘their lowest level ever, compared to family incomes. He doubts rf modest increases would llrnl; accessibility. “What determines whether someone goes to university are attitudes atid expectations formed... in grade eight and nine.” Family’attitk&s, not cost, is the most import&t factor. Wright said the UW Board.,of Governors would rriot’be discussing deregulation when they meet again in April, though it may draft a call for “some increase in tuition associated with so&e substantial increase in government grants.” He said the Board would not pursue increases in tuition without jumps in provincial grants. ,

After excessive drink.ing, he was taken to the Campus Centre with other people where & was repeatedly sick in the washroom. Turnkey Craig Emick, who had followed the youth into the washroom, returned to the turnkey desk to tell them what was going on. When he returned with turnkey Cindy Brown, the ‘boy was outside, lying on the ground semi-conscious, and not respopding. to attempts to make him stand up or talk. .Emick said that Brown, who had the most first aid training, * taok charge of administering first aid while he phoned an ambulance. He said that it was the .opinion of those at the desk that the situation was life-threatening. * The turnkeys involved re1 ceived a thank-you note from the bo;y’s sister for their help.-Four uthbrs who helped were on-duty 3urnkeys, Wayne Heasman and Gord Leask, an off-duty turnkey, ,f, Brian Fallis, and a Games Room attendant, Le Luong. Said Dean of Students Ernie Lucy, “This. is a matter of extreme concern to the university. It is something the university takes very seriously.” He also . said charges would probably be laid and disciplinary procedures might possibly be taken by the university. “There will be a very thorough investigation,” he said. As well, according to both Lucy and Mackenzie, there is
currently no evidence to suggest the youth had been served in any university bar, including Fed Hall or the Bombshelter. Emick said there have been drunk people in the Campus Centre before but to the best of his knowledge, never a minor, and not as serious. More information will be made available when the investigation is completed, said Mackenzie.

dles Hall, some of the protesters constructed mock missiles to highlight misleading or ambiguous job descriptions and to illustrate the manner in which co-op students may inadvertently contribute to the development of weapons systems through work on seemingly innocuous projects that are eventually incorporated into just such systems, Renee Beneteau, also of SAM, explained that co-op students employed to perform military work are not simply working but learning “methods of violence” as part of their university education because that work is obtained through the co-op education system: “Teaching peace is not done. Where will it be done?” she said. Three posters briefly described the military involvement of each company. Automation Tooling Systems manufactures “parts for U.S. Navy Trident Nuclear submarines” and received a federal government Defence industry Productivity Program payment to help it “generate $43 million in defence export sales over the n?ext 5 years.” Computing Devices Limited performed work for the Canadian and U.S. Armed Forces on tanks, helicopters and naval weapons, and Atomic Energy of Canada Limited, in addition to performing “Particle Beam Research for S.D.I.

Fed Hall code of ethics It’s the dawn of a new age in Ontario. A new age of awareness. Awareness of abuse in the family. Awareness of sexually transmitted diseases. Awareness of alcohol-related deaths, injuries and social problems. This last category of awareness has changed the atmosphere in which all licensed bars and restauI rants serve their customers. It used to be that when a drunk driver wrapped his car around a telephone pole, or caused other people injury or death, he was held responsible for all damages. But in the last ten years or so, with the advent of anti-drunk driving lobbies like PRIDE, the tolerance for drunks and drunk drivers has sharply decreased and the scope of responsibility for damages has widened, Servers of liquor are no longer free to ply their customers with all the booze they can consume and then blithely look the other way as the customer stumbles out of the building, endangering his wellbeing and that of others. A number of landmark court cases have made it clear that servers of alcoholic beverages and their employers have a “duty to control” their customers, and are in fact “their brother’s keeper.” In these court cases plaintiffs [the plaintiff is often the intoxicated patron who causes harm to himself] have successfully sued licensed establishments for failing to take measures to protect the intoxicated patron and others. The Liquor License Act of Ontario makes it illegal to: serve a person who is under 19 years of age; serve a person to intoxication; serve a person who is already intoxicated. The law requires staff to eject or not admit patrons who are riotous, violent, intoxicated or apparently intoxicated, or who have any potential of putting themselves or oth-
ers at risk, What has all this got to do with the University of Waterloo? Well, as we all know, on UW property stands Federation Hall, Canada’s largest and most successful on-campus night club. Why is Fed Hall successful? Because lots and lots of students go there, What do they do there? Have a great time. What does a great time at Fed Hall include? Dancing, socializing, eating, listening to music, watching videos, seeing great bands, and drinking. Drinking? Nobody can deny alcohol plays an important and legitimate role in making the good times great, But over-indulgence or out-right abuse of alcohol can make the good times turn very bad. Welcome to Fed Hall’s dii lemma. With upwards of 1,300 patrons coming through Fed Hall on a Friday,or Saturday night, Fed Hall is legally and civilly liable for the condition of each and every one of those 1,300 people. The penalties for not being “our brother’s keeper” are severe. A $10,000 fine and/or one year in jail for the person who serves apatron to intoxication, and a $25,000 fine for Fed Hall, not to mention the multi-million dollar civil suit that can result from the death or injury of the student and third parties. Fed Hall also admits under-age Waterloo students, and faces more stiff penalties for serving under-age patrons who take off their buttons or offer fraudulent ID to gain entrance. You may be saying, “Ya, well how often does it happen? You’ve got 1300 eople going through every night and R ow many people have been injured or killed?” The answer is no one has been injured or killed and no one has sued as a result of an injury at Fed Hall. The reason for
this is Fed Hall has the most effective and comprehensive control system in Canada. Staff are required to attend seminars geared at minimizing their civil and statutory liability, and training them to be aware of patrons’ condition. But, Fed Hall pays a price in public relations for its strict adherence to the law. Doormen are called Hitler Youth and Gestapo. Management is chastised for not realizing Fed Hall is for the students and the students should be able to gain entrance no matter what state of drunkenness they are in. It is unlikely the majority of students feel that Fed Hall and the Federation of Students should break the law and turn their backs on their civil obligations to protect patrons from themselves and others. However, there seems to be a lack of awareness of the potential consequences of getting drunk at Fed Hall, or trying to get into Fed Hall after having had even one drink at another location [under civil law Fed Hall assumes responsibility for all alcohol consumed prior to entering Fed Hall). Fed Hall staff and management like to party as much as our patrons do, and we hate telling people they’re cut off or they can’t come in. It’s unpleasant, it’s unfair, and it puts a damper on our patrons’ ‘evening.
But we are going
to keep doing
it, because tbe alternative is alcohol-related deaths, injuries, law suits and ultimately the closure of Fed Hall and other university licensed facilities, giving more ammunition to these who would have the drinking age raised to 21 because students are “irresponsible drinkers .” We’re fascist scum (in the eyes of some) because we have to be. We like Fed Hall, we like not being sued, and we like our patrons and want them to survive university. If you think this all a little extreme - that we’re making a mountain out of a beer can - we would be happy to show you documented court cases and local incidents where students have been hurt or killed as a result of being dfunk, So, come to Fed Hall, make your first drink of the night at Fed Hall, drink, party, and if you get cut off, remember it is because our staff are concerned about you, about Fed Hall, and about themselves.That’s how we keepFed Hall “the biggest and the best.”

COMMENT
How long will prcbvince hold back funding? Well, it certainly looks like tuition and’ enrollment will continue to increase. The Ontario Federation of Students got hold of a report circulated to universities by the Council of Ontario Universities recently that recommends significant tuition increases. Council president William Sayers predicts province-wide enrollment will be up again this fall, The question now is, will government funding of universities increase in a comparable amount? With their record in the past, I think not. I’m not against the student shouldering a little more of the burden, especially if student loans increase in availability. But I cannot see how the Ontario government can continually ignore the plight of universities. When Frank Miller’s Conservative government was blown out of the water a few years back by that Liberal-NDP agreement, it seemed like there might be hope for universities yet. We waited with baited breath to see how ‘Peterson would approach post secondary underfunding. And have things changed? Not significant1 . So it’s back to the students to come up wit z the bucks. That is, unless the government, encouraged by taxpayers, is willing to pour more money into the universities in return for them making them more “accessible.” Now, does this mean they will be more financially accessible, or more educationally accessible? In other words, will potential students who earlier could not afford a post secondary education then be able to, or will otential students who didn’t make the grade earlier suddenly 1 e welcomed in because the government thinks every taxpaying family should be able to send their kids to university? Quality suffers when there is not enough money, but it also suffers if the universities are encouraged to lower and lower their acceptance standards. Not that that seems to have happened. But it is the kind of political solution that looms on the horizon, and may someday surface. At the moment, I don’t think potential university students will look at increased tuition fees and “decide in Grade 9 that they don’t want to go,” as OFS chairman Shelley Potter said. Getting a good education has never come cheap. Whether or not students go to university will probably be more a matter of attitudes. But how they will pay for it all will become a concern once they are there. And they will sure notice the effects of underfunding while on campus. I have gone through UW talking my way into those courses that turned up as “fits but is full” on my schedule. I have always managed to get the ones I wanted, but every year it seems a bit harder. They don’t have the professors to add extra sections, so you have to depend on the good will of individual profs to contend with huge classes. “Don’t tell the chairman about this, but I’m still willing to sign people into this course,” one prof announced at the beginning of term. Departments are getting tough, They won’t take any more students in these courses. They can’t take any more. If this is some kind of protest by selected UW departments, to turn students away, trying to keep to a strict professor-student ratio, and then telling the government they must have more money to keep all their students in courses, I can understand their frustration. But even if such a maneuver could succeed in the long run, it’s only going to hurt students now. Where are we supposed to go? Will we fill up our course schedules more and more based on what we are abler to get into, not what we want to take? Every year, it gets worse. Someday, it will have to come to a head. But when, no one can tell. Fleur

Letter to the editor
YugoslaVia not fairly presented To the editor, I feel that Sanda Munjic should be commended for revealing some of the fallacies surrounding Yugoslavia at the Amnesty International meeting (as reported in the article “UW Student Speaks About Yugoslavia,” by Leslie Perrault dated February 17, 1989, p.12). When Munjic states that ridiculous rumours have been spread about the atrocities committed by Crotian Ustashas during WWII, 1 quite agree. According to the retired Yugoslav major-general - now historian - Dr. Franjo Tudjman, 80,000 persons (including Crotians, Serbians, Jews and Romanies) perished in all camps and prisons of the Independent State of Croatia. That this is horrible need not be debated, but why
is it necessary
for commu-
Tudjman further points out and I agree - that if one continuously exaggerates to an alarming degree the atrocities of the Ustashas alone, one tends to lose sight that the historical genesis of the Ustasha movement lay in the hegemonistic tyranny imposed on the Croatian natian under the Yugoslav monarchy, and particularly in the assassination of the Croatian colitical leadership headed by the pacifist Stjepan’ Radic. On June 20, 1928, the Serbian deputy Punisa Racic opened fire on the Croatian deputies in the Belgrade parliament killing Stjepan Radic, Pavle Radic, Duro Basaricek and Ivan Pernar.) Where I feel Munjic did not do a fair job is in her judging of the Chetniks and Ustashas as “terwhile

statement iimaccurate
Partisans treated too favourablv bv history? . -
To the editor, I am writing regarding to the February 17, 1989 article of Leslie Perrault, “UW Student Speaks About Yugoslavia” on page 12. Sanda Munjic’s statement, “The Chetniks and the Ustashas are justly called ‘terrorists,“‘... since they committed atrocities against civilians during the war,” is historically inaccurate. - In wartime Croatia there was a tridimensional power struggle between three opposing groups: the Croatian Armed Forces [the Ustasha militia minority and the regular Domobran/Homeguard majority)+ the Serbian Chetniks, and the predominantly-Serbian Partisans. The first fought for the preservation of the Independent State of Croatia; the second and third groups fought to destroy this state, and to establish a Greater Serbia and Communist Yugoslavia respectively. In the process, all three forces murdered many thousands of Serbs and Croats, Sanda Munjic should carefully read the memoirs of two leading Serbian Partisans of Tito’s inner circle: Milovan Dji\as’ Wartime (1977), and Svetorzar Vukmanovic-Tempo’s Recolucioja koj~ tece [The Revoktion that Runs - 1971). Both authors admit that the Serbian Partisand, who were often as such at night and Chetniks by day, committed numerous atrocities against the civilian backers of their enemies. Vuknamovic-Tempo goes further and states how he tried but failed to stop his BosnianSe 1 Partisans from assisting tht; Bosnian-Serb Chetniks in their exterminating the Croat

Moslem population in BosnaHercegovina, in 1941. Also, in relation to the supposed Partisan resistance to the Nazis, Djilas admits that in March 1943, Tito ordered him and two other Partisan leaders to negotiate with the Germans for a combined resistance against a possible Allied landing on the Dalmation coast. The talks failed because of Hitler’s disagreement. (See also Walter J. Roberts’ Tito, Mihajlovic, and

the Allies, 1941-1945, 1987.1 During this bloody power struggle, the Chetniks and the Ustashe killed because of heated passions. The Partisans, on the other hand, killed in a cold and calculating manner. During the war, for example, they attacked German patrols near Serb/Croat village in order to provoke German retaliation against the villagers, and thus gain recruits. Immediately after the war, in May 1945, starting in
To the editor, For the past few weeks I have seen the tensions between Muslims and Non-Muslims build throughout the world, but I did not want to get involved. I f& the actions of a few radicals would not affect me. After ail, how could anyone that knew me think that I would want to kill Salman Rushdie or anyone else? Well, I was wrong. The shockingly racist and anti-Muslim comments I have seen hearing recently in and around the university prove that the actions of these radicals have affected not only Rushdie but innocent Muslims around the world. Professor Lefcourt’s article are Muslims insecure? WhY March 31 proves! that even the usually informed and unbiased academic community is beginning to see the religion of Islam as the problem. Well, let me clarify some things for the professor and the rest of the un.iversity community.
As a Suni Muslim and a Canadian, I am insulted to be grouped together with the like-s of Ayatollah Rullah Khomeni. Khomeni and his kind (in Iran or anywhere else) do not represent &e “true Muslims.*’ Many Mus.ims disagree with the calls for Rushdie’s assassination, Sadly, the media has seen fit only to provide air time for the radicals, As for calling the Ayotollah a -vIuslim, this is an insult to the ‘slamic faith as a whole, The Ay,tclllah and his cohorts have spc,nsored world wide terrorism, liid napping and murder; they justify their actions by using the na,ne of Allah, but nowhere in Holy Quran does Allah justify these cowardly and criminal acts [I would not be a Muslim if He did!]. ft is also important to see the Ayotollah’s actions for what they really are. Iran’s leader is less concerned with his religion than securing his power base. The Ayotollah’s use of the Rushdie affair is tantamount to the
myself”
Issue comes full circle I would like to address myself to some particular questions Alix Nelezinsky raised last week, First of all, with respect to the Gospels of the New Testament [NT] and the Gnostic Gospels, Nalezinsky asks why we should accept the Gospels of the NT over the Gnostic accounts. The answer to this query is apparent to students of textual criticism: unlike the Gnostic Gospels, the Gospels of the NT are recorded by those who were closest to the events documented. An important source on this point comes from Irenaeus, bishop of Lyons. Irenaeus wrote “Mathew published his Gospel among the Hebrews in their own tongue, when Peter and Paul were reaching thd gospel

Southern Austria, especially at Bleiburg, the Partisans murdered an estimated 300,000 unarmed Croatian troops and civilians. They also murdered over 50,000 unarmed anti-communist Serbian Chetniks and Slovene White Guards and their civilians. They feared these forces and their civilian followers were uncompromising threats to the new communist Yugoslav state. (See Nikolai Tolstoy’s The Minister
and the Massacres, 1985.) The killings took place as the British Army refused the anti-communist South Slavs’ surrender, and,, disarmed and handed th5.m over to the pursuing Partisans.

preached by his teacher. Then John, the disciple of I,ord... pryduced his Gospel, while he’ was living at Ephesus in Asia.” [Adversus haereses, III. 1 @a. ISO] The value of Irenaeus’remarks is especially significant because he had been a student of Polycarp, bishop of Srnirna, martyred in A.D. 156 after being a Christian for 86 years. Polycarp in turn had been a disciple of the Apostle John. Irenaeus had often heard from Polycarp the eyewitness accounts of Jesus received from John and others who had been personally acquainted with Jesus. This issue comes full circle back to Nalezinsky. Kuelker has cited multiple reasons for believing the integrity of the New Testament Gospels and their primary source nature; what, on the
other
hand,
are
the
specific
reasons for believing that the Gnostic Gospels give a more accurate portrait? In other words, since Nalezinsky brought the subject up, he might demonstrate that it is a significant objection by answering some important questions; [viz. who wrote the various Gnostic Gospel accounts? How close were
the writers to the actual events surrounding the life of Christ? What is the number of extant manuscripts?], I would maintain that-if Nalezinsky researches the answers to these questions, his question with respect to which account to accept will become apparent, Of interest, as well, is Nalezinsky’s comment that “whether or not Jesus rose from the dead is in question and cannot be used to justify taking the New Testament as true.” If Nalezinsky decides to address the value of the Gnostic Gospels in a future letter (with respect to the life of Christ), I would like to see, also, explicit reasons for why he believes the resurrection of Christ “is in question.” [Of notable curiosity would be a discussion about the fact that some of the Gnostic writers affirmed the resurrect ion of Christ]. Nalezinsky points out that we’ must not ignore Plato’s philosophy. Quite true. We must not ignore significant historical facts either. Gary Dam, MA 3rd year Philosophy

Couple probes masturbation
DEAR SEXPERT: My girlfriend and I live in different cities and therefore we don’t see each other very often. She gets frustrated by our limited sex life but won’t try masturbation because she thinks it isn’t normal for females. Is it? ANSWER: This is a difficult question to answer because what is “normal” for one person is not necessarily normal for someone else. I won’t make any attempt to tell you what is normal, but I will provide some information that might assist you in forming your own personal definition of normality, I will begin by mentioning a few types of normality, and discussing how masturbation relates to each of them. Normality can be defined in terms of statistics that indicate what percentage of the population engage in certain activities. Although different studies have come up with different figures, most studies [ie. Kinsey, Hunt] indicate the majotity of females masturbate at some point in their lives. Masturbation is more common for males than it is for females, but these studies indicate the difference is diminishin Religious beliefs or mora f codes could also be referred to in determining what is normal. I have no idea what your girlfriend’s beliefs or values are, so I won’t guess whether or not these have influenced her opinion about masturbation. Legal normality is another way of deciding what is normal. Masturbation is perfectly legal and, despite what some misinformed people claimed in the past, it does not cause any physical or emotional illnesses. It does not affect your eyesight, cause hair to grow on your palms or [for males) use up a “limited supply of sperm.” Masturbation can be beneficial for males and females. It can relieve sexual urges at a time when someone is without a partner or has a partner who is unavailable [or unwilling). It can also be useful in making people more aware of their sexual functioning. The absence of a partner allows one to concentrate on what pleases them, and on how their body responds to certain stimulation. Sex therapists often give their clients exercises involving masturbation to help them overcome sexual problems. It is important to realize the above response is not intended to convince you that your girlfriend (or anyone) should masturbate. I realize that some people are uncomfortable with masturbation, and that for them it would not be normal, I am only saying that masturbation can be a positive experience for those that are comfortable with it, This discussion oFnormality could be applied to other areas of sexuality. If you are wondering if an activity ,is normal, consider whether or not you are comfortable with it (assuming that there is no physical or emotional pain involved), and form your own definition of normality. l

The way I see it, exploitation, by definition, cannot be a mutually beneficial or accepted situation. I can’t see how this applies to people who are models, exotic dancers or any other such profession that pays one hell of a lot more than you or I make [ie. a friend of mine, after a ten year career as an exotic dancer, has recently retired to the Bahamas at age thirty.

The ASU is representative not of the Arts Students at the University of Waterloo, but also, [as an official body of the University of Waterloo), representative of the entire university.

When exploring feminist issues, we must recognize their experimental nature. Silenced and ignored for centuries, women have been excluded from the construction of sexuality, science, economics, politics, education and culture. Only in recent decades have women demanded a voice and attempted to restructure the institutions and stereotypes which daily deny our reality and bury our past. Due to the structured environment we live in, many people often expect feminism to be a unified ideology or practice. However, working toward conformity, would be as easy as promoting present stereotypes. Instead, feminists work toward recognition of the individuality of each and every woman. The recognition of individuality allows for variation in theoretical frameworks, aims, ideologies and approaches. Consequently, while organizing and working to create equal opportunities for women, feminists differ on strategies, attitudes toward men, the roots of women’s oppression and the setting of priorities, The different trends within feminism can be thought of as having four different premises: women and men should be treated as equals; women and men are in opposition; women and men should be treated as equals, but based on different models:
women
and men should
work
to-
gether in cooperation to create a new society. These four currents can be described as liberal feminism, radical feminism, socialist feminism and androgynous feminism, In practice, however, most women borrow from each current, relating to certain parts and redefining others. The division between the currents should not suggest there is a right feminism and a wrong feminism,
Such
a judgment
can
be self-
defeating and has been used against women to deny women power. The differences in theory and objectives of the four currents of feminism remain theoretical and translate poorly into actual feminist organizing. Liberal feminiem fundamentally accepts the current social and eca.nomic system and argues for equal opportunity within our present society; this includes promoting women’s education, removing stereotypes that deny women the ability to compete fairly with men, and fighting discriminatory laws.

Our activities thus far have been directed to the goal of raising the consciousness of UW students concerning the military industry and its connections to our cooperative education programme.
Students To the editor, These are some comments on the views expressed by Andrew Dalby in last week’s letter “Censoring Jobs.” I was at the anti-militarism protest and I do feel the continued presence and growth of the military, both in conventional and especially nuclear forces is an unacceptable threat to our very lives.

Reader defends S.A.M’s right to protest To the .editor, I was distressed to read’ the letter in the March 3 Imprint by Andrew Dalby. He was stating his right to freedom of choice, however, he conveniently managed to ignore the rights of the group that he proceeded to cut down. The UW Students Against Militarism (SAM) have every right to express their views. They have no right to ban military contractors from the campus without the support of the governing bodies of the University, and realistically, there is little chance of that. As far as I can tell, the SAM are attempting to increase the awareness of the student body, and to allow co-op students concerned with militarism to consider it as a factor in job application. Everyone has a right to express their opinions, regardless of how few people share them. It is under this principle that Mr.

I apologize for the delayed response, but I am curently on work term in Ottawa and the delivery service from Waterloo takes time. At any rate, Mr. McCracken’s article dealt with the subject of date rape. It apparently was itself in response to a former article (which I unfortunately didn’t get to read) written by Sean Richens. My main reason for writing is to let Mr. McCracken know he doesn’t stand alone in believing date rape and its larger counterpart of rape are not being taken as seriously as they rightfully should be. 1 too have seen the mentioned date-rape posters scattered
Dalby’s letter was printed. Why is it that “protests against sexism are warranted”? Under the exalted principle of freedom of speech, are protests for sexism and racism not equally warranted? I have my own views on militarism, which I do not wish to discuss here. I am not supporting the views of the SAM, merely the right they have to express them. Indeed, I find it somewhat strange that as a group of students, they are content to attend a university that is itself a military contractor. However, they have reasons for their beliefs, and it is base name-calling to call them “inconsiderate and simpleminded,” not to mention “insipid ignoramuses [which should be “insipid ignorami”). Mr. Dalby’s letter was insulting and degrading to these students, and I believe that he owes them an apology. Susan Astington II3 Chemical Engineering

We sell the region of Latin America $140 million worth of military goods annually, and 60 per cent of these countries are identified as human rights violators by Amnest y International. I would suggest you read the Universal Declaration of Human Righter (UN) to get a better idea of what the UN is and what its peace keepers are trying to create. Canada’s role as ti military player in the world is possibly not so peaceful as you might think. You are aware, I hope, of Canada’s commitment to NATO and NATO’s declaration of its willingness to be first to use nuclear weapons.

The attitude of “SOME” of the male population needs a lot’ to be desired towarci considering the rights and wants of others (particularly the opposite sex). I guess it is all well and good to agree with someone else, but I find I have a point (which I consider to be valid) of my own that was unfortunately omitted from McCracken’s article. While setting himself up as an example, he failed to mention that while all males are- capable of date rape, some (and I pray I speak on behalf of the majority) find it as equally repulsive and inhuman as women do. It would be very easy at this point to dismiss this statement as that of a flag-waving puritan, but it falls closer to
the category of humanitarian. “A solution you ask? Like anything else, public attitude holds the most power in swaying the masses and since the problem effects both genders, the responsibility lies with both to discourage the praise of sexual violence and show a more committed attitude toward defining sexual violations. Without clearer definitions we could have a similar situation to that of Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible” where ,people cry “rape!” (actually in Miller’s tale it was “witch!“] at every chance innocent males fall victim to an overzealous \public.

on&z CMsh Persp4ixdisw Of grave-robbers and disciples by Eric
Kuelker
Last week it was pointed out that Christ’s tomb was certainly empty three days after His crucifixion. Now, either it was emptied by Divine power, or by human hands. We’ll explore the second option, that the disciples stole the body of Jesus, which is the earliest attempt to explain the empty tomb, Let us begin by considering how the disciples felt, especially Peter, the boldest, How would you feel if your admired leader had been falsely arrested, if you’d denied him three times to a maid’s simple questions, if he had gone through a mockery of a trial, ‘suffered a horrible death, and been buried? This was catastrophic, and even when the disciples saw the tomb was empty, they did not understand Christ had to rise from the dead (John 2&g). They were in no cdndition psychologically to do something as bold as stealing his body and faking his resurrection. I Even supposing that they were in a mood to steal the body, how could they carry out their plan? The tomb was being guarded by trained soldiers, specifically ordered to prevent the disciples from stealing the body. The soldiers would not have permitted the robbery, for that kind of disobedience would have resulted in their court-martial and death. Since the disciples could not have stolen the body if the guards were awake, what of the excuse that they were sleeping? Recall from last week’s column that it was the high priests, not the soldiers who invented the idea they had been sleeping. This theory~has insurmountable difficulties. First, the punishment to soldiers sleeping on watch was automatic court-martial and death, which i.s a very good incentive to stay awake. Implicit proof of the fact that they were not sleeping is that they were not executed for breaking this rule. Second, even if the soldiers were sleeping, the noise of the disciples moving the very large rock [Mark 1634) and removing Christ’s body would have wakened them. Third, even if the soldiers were truly sleeping, under threat of death if caught, and through the commotion of moving the stone, how could they know it was the disciples who stole. the body? Who knows what goes on when one is asleep? This kind of testimony would be laughed out of any court. Finally, as it has been repeatedly pointed out in previous columns, it is absurd to believe that the 11 disciples would die for proclaiming the truth of the resurrection when they knew all along that Christ had not been resurrected, but they had merely stolen His body. The disciples were completely sincere and honest in what they believed, or else they would not have had the courage to go through all their persecution. Since the disciples did not steal the body, what of the possibility that someone else did, such as the Jews or Romans? This theory faces not only the same difficulty with the guards’ presence, but other ones. The Jews asked for the guard in the first place, showing they did not want the body moved. Secondly, they were greatly .annoyed by the disciples preaching right after the resurrection
and
would
have
produced
the
body
to refute
them.
The Remans, who wished to keep the peace, would not have meddled to the extent of stealing the body, and would have produced it to keep the powerful Jews happy and the disciples silenced. Other secret disciples of Christ could not have stolen the body from under the noses of the guards, as mentioned before. One concludes that the simplest explanation is- that the tomb was not emptied by human means, but divine ones, in the Resurrection.

Apartheid: by Sherwood Imprint staff
Hinxe
“South Africa and the institutionalized system of apartheid is not just a South African problem, it is a universal problem. Apartheid is a crime against all of humanity.” So opened the articulate and thoughtful account of the current situation and imminent crisis soon to besiege South Africa by Jusuf Saloojee, the African National Congress’ chief representative to Canada, given last Tuesday February 28. “South African society today can be best understood by examining two factors that characterize it,” said Saloojee. South African society is a violent society, he said. It is a society held in bondage. There are 26 million blacks and 5 million whites in South Africa [this does not include Coloureds, Asians or Indians) + The only means by which the white minority can maintain power is through the systematic application of brute force. An example of the use of this force was the 1976 Soweto uprising, when 1,500 unarmed black youths were killed by white policemen. Between 1984 and 1988, over 30,000 blacks have been imprisoned. However, as Saloojee clarifies, this is not the greatest violence which occurs in South Africa. The real violence occurs in the rural areas of South Africa where the majority of blacks are forced to live and eke out a dayto-day living. It is here that an average of five to ten children under the age of five die every hour from hunger and hunger-related diseases. It is here there is only one doctor for every 3~1,000 people. It is here that people are forced to live in squalid and disease-ridden bantustans, far removed from the real richness and splendor that is South Africa. South Africa is one of the ri+ est natural resource based _

tions in the world. When the majority of people are forced to live in absolute destitution amidst vast wealth this is, for Saloojee, the real crime against humanity. “South African society today is a divided society” Saloojee said. This is the second factor that highlights contemporary South African society. Apartheid was originally formally institutionalized in 1948 with the support of a united white governing body. Today, the white population is divided into many factions which include: those whites calling for the complete dismantling of apartheid; those advocating reform; those wishing to maintain the status quo; and the growing (but still insignificant) neo-Nazis, who scare even the rightwing whites. There is a growing movement among the white youth of South Africa against apartheid. The white youth are now dodging conscription in such large numbers that the government has stopped publishing the number of draft-dodgers stating that the figures have become a state secret. In the past, the whites have used apartheid to show the world that it is the blacks who are too divided, based on tribal and ethnic reasons. It has always been this apparent division that warrants the whit& maintaining power. Today, in <the face of growing unification among the many black, church and revolutionary organizations it is the whites who appear to be falling apart. Saloojee reminded his audience that although raci’sm is alive and well throughout the world, South Africa is the only nation to have racism institutionalized within a constitution. In South Africa, racism affects every person immediately from the time a person is born and follows that person to their grave. The Population Registration
was at this time that the ANC was branded an organization with communist leanings. Today the bulk of the ANC’s financial support comes from the Baltic nations with Norway leading the way. “Why hasn’t anyone labelled the ANC as now being Norwegian in their leanings?” Saloojee asked, bringing laughter from the audience. In the face of government violence, most Western nations, Canada included, have demanded the ANC denounce the use of violence in their freedom struggle. Saloojee argues that
Act classifies a person from the moment of birth according to colour, thus determining where one will live, what kind of education one will receive, whether one will be able to vote and where one will be buried after death. All aspects of a person’s life are intimately associated with, and influenced by, apartheid. Saloojee turned the focus of his presentation to the African National Congress (ANC) of which he is a member. What he would most like to emphasize is that it is not the goal of the ANC

to replace white dictatorship with black dictatorship. The primary goal of the ANC is to introduce democracy to Siouth Africa - one person, one vote. For this, the ANC has been branded communist by the South African government and some Western nations. He stresses that the ANC originally went to the United States for financial support but were refused and thus had to turn to the Eastern bloc for support. It
the ANC, since its founding in 1912, have always advocated a non-violent approach to bringing change to the nation. It was not until 1963, on the recommendation of Nelson Mandela, that a “limited selected armed struggle” dame about. This meant that only “hard” targets would be marked for attack. tIard targets include such things as military installations and hydro-electric plants. Today, hard targets also include

any personnel that represents the South African military or police force. “Soft” targets (civilians) have never been included in the objectives of the armed struggle. Saloojee stressed, however, the armed struggle comprises only one wing of the ANC and in proportion to the whole organization this wing is a minor aspect. “The fundamental modus operandi continues to be attempting to bring about change through non-violent means.” Saloojee concluded the presentation by arguing that anyone who thinks the South African problem is not a concern to Canada.must only look at the recent trade figures to come out of Ottawa regarding Canada-South Africa trade. In the current international economic order, no nation can be independent of international trade and still economically survive. A 68 per cent trade increase over the last year implies for Saloojee, that Canada, through its apparent financial support, condones the system of apartheid. By not only trading with South Africa but increasing that trade, apartheid becomes Canada’s concern and responsibility as well as South Africa%. That is what is meant by Saloojee’s opening remarks: “Apartheid is a universal problem.” A conclusion that hopefully left the audience ill at ease and more aware of the responsibility we as Canadians should show toward the whole apart heid issue. (Jusuf Saloojee came to Canodain ?977 as the ANC’s chief representative to Canada. He has been an active member of the ANC since the age of thirteen. The ANC was first formed in 1912, and has been banned in South Africa for the last 29 years. In 1971, Saloojee addressed the United Nations on torture in South Africi. Saloojee Ieaves his Canadian posting in two months for a new assignment in Lusaka, Zambia.) ,

City recycling invites student involvement by Leda Perrault Imprint staff Even though WW is sadly lacking in a recycling programme right now, UW students may’ want to get involved in the City of Waterloo’s 3R Program - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. The initial organizational meeting regarding waste reduction was held Feb. 7. Six committees were established: multiple dwellings, institutional, industrial, single family up to triplex dwellings, business, and education and resource. Approximately 55 members are working on the various committees. “All task forces have met at least once,” said Deborah Bricknell who coordinates recycling chairperson Lyn Woolstencroft’s activities. It is not too late for interested and faculty to join a committee and get involved in students
the city project. WLU students have already approached the group regarding Blue Boxes for WLU residences. The boxes cost six dollars each so some financial agreement would have to be reached. The recycling effort headed by Woolstencroft is unique because over a two or three year eriod it will tackle a number o P important issues simultaneously, said Woolstencroft , The commit tee is not as hierarchical as traditional ones. Since ihe city’s programme began June 6,1988, Waterloo residents have recycled enough aluminum, glass, tin, and newspapers to save the electricity needed for 360 houses for one year (excluding space heating), heating for two houses this winter, 270 barrels of oil, and 10,000 trees. The next group meeting is to be held April 4, If interested, call Deborah Bricknell at 886-1550.

Everyone agrees with the standard hazardous waste management hierarchy: reduction, reuse, recycling, treatment and destruction, and disposal and storage. The ideal waste management s stem maximizes reduction, reuse and recyc r ing and minimizes the need for destruction, disposal and storage. Although everyone constantly refers to this hierarchy as the Bible of waste management, actions rarely coriform to these commandments. The prime indicator of our commitment is where we put our money, The United States Congress Office of Technology Assessment stated in 1988 that less than 0.1 per cent of total government spending on pollution control programmes goes into activities related to waste reduction. The Canadian percentages are not very different. We cannot afford to pay lip service to waste’ reduction. The crisis we confront in our environment shows there is no wise choice but to concentrate all our energies on avoiding any further contamination of the environment. In June 1988, more than 300 scientists and policy makers from 46 countries spent four days in Toronto discussing pollution in our atmosphere. In their joint statement at the end of the conference these scientists stated: “If rapid action is not taken now by the countries of the world, these problems will become progressively more serious, more difficult to reverse, and more costly to address.” We must take their warning seriously. In the summer of 1986, hearings sponsored by Great Lakes United on water quality were held in 19 locations throughout the Great Lakes Basin from Duluth, Minnesota, to Montreal, Quebec. Almost 400 people spoke at these hearings. The .most common recurring theme was that the contamination of the Great Lakes is so severe and so little is known about the long-term health effects of toxics in the ecosystem, that zero-discharge of persistent toxic substances is the only reasonable course of action to pursue. The Canadian and U.S. governments have recognized this same basic fact. In 1978, the two governments signed the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement. In this agreement, they stated as one of their basic goals that “the discharge of any or all persistent toxic substances be virtually eliminated.” In 1987 when they amended the Agreement, they added several clauses aimed at achieving the zero-discharge goal. For example, commitments made by both governments include “reduction in the generation of contaminants... through the reduction of the total volume or quantity of waste... shall, wherever possible, be encouraged.” The achievement of this goal, so strongly urged by the public and supported by the Canadian and U.S. governments, requires that reduction be the method for dealing with hazardous wastes, The Office of Technology Assessment defines waste reduction as in-plant practices that reduce, avoid, or eliminate the generation of ha-
zardous waste so as to reduce risks to health and environment. Actions taken away from the waste generating activity, including waste recycling or treatment of wastes after they are generated are not considered waste reduction. Also, an action that merely concentrates the hazardous content of a waste to reduce volume or dilutes it to reduce the degree of hazard is not considered waste reduction. This definition is meant to be consistent with the goal of preventing the generation of waste at its source rather then controlling, treating or managing waste after its generation. Waste reduction can be achieved by changing the raw materials used in production to other substances: changing production technology to reduce the amounts of hazardous materials used; improving housekeeping procedures within the plant to lessen spillage and wastage; recycling wastes within the plant, and changing final products so they have less hazardous components. Industry and government need to set precise targets for reducing waste production. These targets should include dates by which certain percentage reductions will be achieved. For example, the target could be an additional ten percent reduction in hazardous wastes in each of the next five years, Definite plans for action to achieve these targets should be included. The targets should be set country-wide, by province, by industry sector and by individual industries. Government and industry must commit much higher percentages of their pollution control budgets to waste reduction. Commitments on paper are meaningless unless there is a commitment of dollars to allow strong actions. The emphasis in reduction should be on changing production processes and on the use of iless hazardous materials in production. In an article in the New Yorker in June 1987, the long-time environmentalist and biologist Barry Commoner assessed the effectiveness of efforts over the past decade and a half to deal with pollution problems. He concluded, “In sum, there is a consistent explanation for the few instances of environmental success: they occur only when the relevant technologies of production are changed to eliminate the pollutant,” And finally, mechanisms should be set up to include the public in setting and reviewing targets for waste reduction. The public should also be given the opportunity to assess each individual company’swaste reduction plans and to monitor the effectiveness of these plans. Lofty zero-discharge goals need to be set for waste reduction - goals we can all strive to achieve. WPIRG is not willing to accept the socalled realistic goals that are usually given to the public, goals that are simply pessimistic, “do as little as you can to get away with” goals. We cannot risk waiting any longer. Our environment is crying for action.

who
apply for the programme are students, but, says Fradley, it is open to anyone 18 years of age or over. A current goal is to broaden the base of the programme to include Canadians of all walks-of-life. To qualify, applicants go through an interviewing process. There are no scholastic requirements, but applicants should be adaptable and openminded. Crossroads attempts to place people according to the skills and experience of applicants and needs in a certain country. Placement terms are four, six, or eight months, depending on the request of the applicant. Applicants can request, as well, a particular country, although this is not guaranteed. The people involved with Crossroads must raise‘ $1,600 each for their trip, and this they do through bingo games, car washes, and coffee houses. The. rest is financed by the sponsor of the programme, the Canadian International Development Agency [CIDA), which matches student dollars in approximately a three to one ratio.

Centre to be funded by Defence Department by John MacFarIane Imprint staff
faculty meeting and the centre still has to receive Senate approval, which could come sometime in March or April. Jaworsky feels the centre is important since “there is a need for a high level of expertise concerning Eastern Europe” in Canada and only Carleton University and the University of Toronto have Soviet study programs presently. He estimates there are between 20 and 30 persons interested in the project who currently teach or conduct research in the area of Soviet bloc affairs,
The University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University will jointly establish a centre for Soviet Studies with the help of an unlikely source, the Department of National Defence. While the Waterloo-Laurier Centre for Soviet Studies, as it will be officially named, received a $225,000 grant from DND this past January, the designated director of the project and UW Political Science professor John Jaworsky emphasizes “there are very few strings attached.” He notes those involved wouldn’t have applied for the grant if they thought their studies had to be strictly militarily oriented. Joyce Agnew, an analyst for DND’s Directorate of Public Policy, also assures that the grant is not tied in any way nor is the research going to be usedforany particular purpose. Rather, the programme is intendedonly to heighten awareness and stimulate research in all areas of Soviet society. Jaworsky stresses “nobody involved with the centre has voiced any concerns” over the source of the funding. However, some of his fellow professors have expressed apprehension about the defence department’s involvement but are waiting for clarification on the centre’s activities before voicing any objections. The topic will mostly likely be discussed at the next

He points out that the centre will be taking a broad approach to its research because “so many factors now influence potential military strategies” such as na-’ tionality issues, economics, political developments and changes in Soviet society. One of the plans for the centre involves establishing a visiting professorship where an outside professor, perhaps from the Soviet Union, would conduct research and teach a course in their area of expertise. Jaworsky also believes this would provide an opportunity
The centre will examine a different aspect of Soviet and East European society each year in-

Each year’s research will be presented at an annual conference hosted by the centre and attended by representatives from DND which would facilitate, as the centre’s proposal for the grant mentions, “a useful exchange between the academic and defence communities on a topic of major strategic significance.”

first three years of employment after graduation. Why? For countless reasons. Engineers feel increasing the integrity and reputation of Engineering at Waterloo cannot help but better the value of the degree obtained from the institution.
For many years, undergraduates have benefitted from Alumni contributions and this is their chance to return the favour. The administration assures the money obtained will be used solely to improve undergraduate labs. The graduation committee hopes that some of the famous engineering spirit will come into play during the pledge period, March 11-30. To this end, thermometers will be p&ted in Carl Pollack Hall showing each department’s percentage of participation. The class with the greatest participation will receive a case of champagne to celebrate with. As well, their department name
will appear on the grad pledge plaque alongside the total graduating class donation for each year. This plaque will be hung in a place of honour and shall act as a challenge to subsequent graduating classes to better their prtidecessors. Each graduate that pledges w,ill receive a commemorative certificate and a lapel pin with the Plummer’s Pledge logo emblazoned upon both. Their names will also appear on a pledge roll call in WEAL, the engineering alumni newsletter. Waterloo is not a school steeped in tradition but the engineers hope that the Plummer’s Pledge is one which will carry on long after they leave.

The pros and cons of co-op Every university has its disiinct features; every university nas its advantages and disadvantages. Many who consider attending the University of Waterloo have been drawn here by Jne feature: the well-developed :o-op system. The prospect of job o portuniLies, job contacts, an dp salaries zonsiderably above minimum wage are enough to lure many nigh school students to seriously consider such a’ programme; sowever, in addition to very vis.ble opportunities, there can be drawbacks to co-op. With co-op programmes comes inherent instability. Many stuients do not know from term to term where they will be working. One might work in Ottawa 3ne term and in Toronto the next. Between these work terms come Four-month school terms in Waterloo. This can cause problems in finding accommodation in cities with tight housing markets. White the out-of-town housing lists provided by UW’s housing office are helpful, they do not change the fact that co-op students generally move every four months. Many students find themselves away from friends. during work terms. Even those who work in the same city often find they spend less time with friends since they are not attending classes together. This can create a certain amount of loneliness,
Then tnere’s the problem that students in some faculties encounter tyhen many of their friends are not in co-op. This means that for several terms in a row, they may not be on cainpus at the same time. This problem is reduced in faculties such as engineering where all students are in co-op programmes. The co-op programme has an impact on university life even when students are on campus. The co-op programme necessitates a short school term. All courses are term courses. The term has barely started before mid-terms hit and then exams come along and it’s time to head off for yet another work term. While this isn’t necessarily a problem for students who plan in advance, the hectic pace tends to act as a barrier to campus in-‘ volvement. Students in co-op are generally more concerned with their grades since getting a good job is a priority. The process of job interviews can be time-consuming. This> means that they might miss out on some of the non-academic educational experiences university life has to offer, Moving every four months also means that many students forego a sense‘of continuity and a sense of belonging to the university. This too decreases school spirit and individual involvement in kampus activities, clubs, etc.
All this does not belittle the fact that the co-op experience can be enriching and can provide an important complement to classroom studies. The oft-expounded advantages are important, but being aware of some of the obstacles can help potential co-op students plan ahead to overcome them. On the positive side, co-op provides an opportunity to put into practice what students have learned in class on a theoretical level only. It can help prepare students for the many years they will have to spend in the working world and it provides an opportunity to assess whether, one’s chosen course of study is really what one wants to do for the next 40 years. Co-op can provide important contacts and experience. The four month rotation also provides a good change of pace and a break for the harried world of academia, And, of great importance to many students, it might deter the problem of starvation or a steady diet of Kraft Dinner. Whatever the decision of any student may be it is important to balance the pros and the cons; co-op may not be for everyone, especially for people who require a sense of stability.

I want my university education to take place primarily in the classroom. One of UW’s biggest strengths lies not in its academic programme, but in its students, and there are plenty of extracurricular opportunities for you to meet them, with such diverse organizations as the Model UN and the Folk and Blues club. There are also the more financiallyminded Entrepreneur and Investment clubs. A number of off-campus fraternities and sororities have also been established.

The problem at UW lies not in finding enough jobs, but in finding enough students, So you want to come to the University of Waterloo? Are you ready to take an active role in your education, working both in and out of the classroom to become the very best you can be? If not, you’d better look elsewhere: If so, you may have just made the best decision of your life, Thoxnm White BA SC ‘88 / BA ‘89
Campus Day advice Trying to casually refer .to a carefully hidden map whii at the same time attempting to look like you know exactly where you are going: tagging along inconspicuously on a tour; and making a mental note to ditch the gym bag in favour of a knapsack are just a few of the many tactics used by high school students visiting a university campus. The desire to know as much as possible about the campus seems to be matched only by the fervent wish not to stand out too much. Well, stop worrying about it. No matter how hard you try, you simpiy cannot look like a true university student until you have pulled at least a few allnighters in the library, lived on a steady diet of kraft dinner and pizza and closed down the local pub at least a few times per term. Sound like fun? Well it is! So ask all the questions you want, and make sure you find out about all facets of university life, not just the courses and marks, but the atmosphere, spirit, sports facilities, pubs, and societies. As a past tour guide, I have heard a wide variety of questions. Some clearly have their priorities in order: “What are the men at Waterloo like? I mean, what are the chances of me finding a husband here?” Others still
have some decisions to make: “I’m int ereste& in+ ,l&q 8 sex therapist. Do you have a degree programme in that field?” By the way, the answers to these real life questions are “probably about five per cent” and “no” respectively. The point is, you should make sure you get the information that’s important to you and the decisions you are facing. Besides getting the facts and figures, Campus Day provides a perfect opportunity to find out about the other facets of a university’ the little things which can help to make the next three to five years a lot of fun. Every campus has its own unique atmosphere, and this should play an important role in decision making. Picking up this copy of Imprint, the student newspaper, is a good first start. Now, you might want to stop off at the CC or the PAC, detouring to the C&D in the MC on the way: then, maybe head over to Needles to check out the pit or our SVA Program. Pardon?! No, this isn’t written in foreign language, If you know what that sentence means by the end of the day, you have made a good start to discovering some of the differences between your high school and Waterloo.

heart, The performance was very raw, lots of miscues but nobody seemed to notice or care. Barney was about as self-effacing as they come, always with just a note of good-natured sarcasm mixed in with the humour. Comparisons with the Boss are inevitable, the jeans, jaw line, sound and even the “singing through clenched teeth” routine are all reminiscent of his better known but fading compatriot from south of the border, The only thing missing was the red hankie in the back pocket. Maybe next time. Despite these unfortunate similarities, Barney Bentall and the Legendary Hearts came through with a great, raw, rock ‘n roll show,
Spending most of his time grinning from ear to ear, Barney Bentall did a reasonable impersonation of an “up and coming rock star but who’s still just one of the guys” to a highly appreciative audience at Fed Hall. There’s no doubt about it, like it or not, this guy has fun on stage. Not sticking to playing their own stuff, Barney and the boys in the band played a few van Morrison tunes, and a Dylan song among other covers. For an encore, Barney played a solo acoustic version of Shook Me A11 Ninht Long, A choice to warm e&n the - coldest reviewer’s
guitarist wore a Batman Dark Knight shirt and looked like Johnny Ramone, which is great. .We did recognize one of their tunes, which is called Getting Sick and Tired Of It, we think, and all of their songs were tight, well-played, and, well, happily professional. They all bounced around, sang, played, and did an encore, and made the world a better place to live. Okay, now everybody who usually reads our stuff can STOP RIGHT HERE, and go read something else. The rest of the article is for math students. Ready? Go! They came on at 22:01:38, played for precisely one hour and thirteen and one third minutes, They were about 5’11” tall (yes, ALL OF THEM) and they all had. a mole on their left cheek (our right).

amassed quite an army of fans with their LP Love. Their next album Electric was produced by some clown named Rick Rubin who made them sound like a second rate AC/DC; a lot of their old fans were mad - real mad... and they took to the streets to exact an unholy vengeance. The new Cult fans resented all the “fruits” wearing the shirts of a band they considered their own - and consequently turned the insulting garment+ into Weapons Of Death. Twenty-seven people died all because of a rock ‘n’ roll band. What a waste - all because of a rock ‘n’ roll band, You might ask why I’m writing this, and well you should. I’d almost forgotten that distant grim night until a few days ago when this band, The Cult, released The Manor Sessions. What are they? They’re songs from the Electric album as they were originally recorded, You guessed it - they sound like Love tracks. And y’know, to this day I believe, beyond any doubt, that if The Cult had released The Manor Sessions back in the cloudy midst of March ‘86, those kids would still be alive today.

Imagine, if you will, one dark night in ‘86, a group of broody new wave youths, content with their eyeshadow and disposition, hanging out at their favourite hangout - a place called Trebor Manor, Another group arrives, and these kids, in their leather and spandex, toss some insults into the cool evening. The two clans draw nearer and after trading a few more suddenly slurs - violence breaks out. It might seem like a pretty farfetched scene... but it happened... and I was there, That’s right I was there, Officer Blair, sent to make some kinda sense out of the torn bodies of these nutty kids driven to violence, and’out of this crazy world. I radioed in to HQ for backup,and an ambulance - “maybe two,” I shouted into the radio as I wiped the sweat from my brow, There were bodies strewn all over the place.

These bespectacled Scottish twins would be just a fad if they weren’t such darn good s‘ongwriters. This, their second album, threatened to be another pop castration of a sincerely original style, especially considering the percussion-laden version of their debut that was released later to satisfy the palates of the masses. While this offering ddesn’t quite transport you to the moors the same way their previous album did, it still treats topics of love and politics with the same celebratory and melancholy angst.. Sure, they have drums on a lot of tracks, but percussion isn’t the obstruction it was before, It’s become a essential element of their writing. I’m On My Way, their current entry into the radio and video rotation, is proof of this. It’s gotta have its bass and drums to power the lilting brogue of the brothers.

His recent, criminal proclivities have made James Brown the brunt of more than a few jokes, and he probably deserves all the abuse that he gets - and more. The fact remains though, that James Brown is the single moat durable, successful and influential black performer of the rock’n’roll age. Over the past five years, his incalculably large catalogue of recordings [LOO plus LPs) has undergone some excellent, well-thought-out reissuing and compilation from Polygram, the lucky who own the . mcompany .I. polnr, masters. -1.0 fnis tne series of reissues such as Ain’t That B Groove, Dead on I&a Heavy Funk, and In a Jungle Graove have focused upon collecting the best obscure gems from his prodigious album releases.

since 1955, Matharlode focuses upon the the years 1967-1973, during which James Brown created a whole new brand of funk - pure dance music which consisted of tight, muscular jams - more circular riffs than real songs with a melody and all that extraneous stuff. Likewise, James stripped his singing down to its most essential - repeated phrases interspersed with screams, growls, hunh’s, good god’s - great dance music...great material for Eddie Murphy’s JB
impression. Along with providing a great insight into the way James built many songs from a single rhythmic idea, Motherlode contains some of the funkiest, tautest dance music ever committed to vinyl. In particular, Since You’ve Been Gone, his duet with Bobby Byrd is a searing slab of vntage JB. It’s also fascinating since it’s only one of no less than five very different versions of the song that he recorded over a Is-year period, This one features one

by jim Herman Imprint staff In another recent effort at lowering stereotypes against disadvantaged interest groups, 4AD’s Dead Can Dance have released The Serpent’s Egg. While a laudable effort, I can’t imagine too many of the deceased shaking their booties to this one. More importantly, do the dead have spending money? On the other hand, I’m not dead, but I do dance. I doubt that too much off of this album will soon be heard at Fed Hall. This is in itself, a good reason to buy this album. But not to dance to. It would be more useful for when you wish to borrow your roommates Gregorian chant, but he’s gone home for the weekend. This is great stuff for when you want to sink to the floor and stare at walls for about forty minutes. Vocals tend toward an experimental type of language, it’s either that or Egyptian. Of course, nonsensical lyrics are just what you need when you’ve got songs like Orbis De Ignis, The Host of Seraphim and In The Kingdom Of The Blind, The OneEyed Are Kings, Doesn’t matter, they sound great anyways. Just one off note to the album, I swear that the vocalist on the last track, Ulysses, sounds just like Neil Diamond. That may not get the dead dancing but it’ll certainly get them spinning in their graves,

Another fine example of the James Brown process of musical .mutation and evolution is You .Got to Have u Mother For Me, -which is a combination of Mother Popcorn and There it Is, both of which appeared in various other forms and versions. All of this doesn’t im ly any less validity in the wor t: of James Brown in the admission that he regularly raids and re-records his own material - The Beatles lived off this kind of genius theft only they stole other peoples’ piffs!

Rap may have been many things before but it has never re. presented the inner sound or the daisy age - that was before De La Soul - the most stupidly inspired rap group evah. They rap about things that matter like dandruff, breakfast and a list of other things too twisted to be repeated or understood. De La Soul have gained a well-deserved reputation for idiosyncrasy with their first two singles Plug Tunin’ and lenifa, Both were great rap singles, but their peace symbols and declarations of a dawning daisy age set them firmly beyond the pale of the def and the chill, Their first LP shows a weltanschaung even more bizarre and twisted than one would have inferred from their singles. For starters, the LP is organized in the form of a bizarre trans-raptual gameshow featuring the three members: Trugoy [yogurt backwards), Posdnuos and Mase acting as hosts and participants. The 23 songs on the LP run the gamut from 3O-second conversation bites to fully-deve-
loped s-minute songs. If this weren’t enough to separate them from the rap mainstream, their songs are sampled and constructed from the most unlikely and diverse sources - who ever heard of a rap song based upon a Steely Dan sample? Only De La Soul as they do with Eye Know. Transmitting From Mars, with it’s crackly dialogue from a French instructional LP sounds like Tackhead on acid. They even have the audacity to sample Ben E. King’s for A Little Bit of Soap. The initial novelty of all this weirdness would wear off very quickly unless the actual songs on the LP were of sufficient quality. Thankfully songs such as Tread Water, Buddy [which features the wonderful Jungle Bros.) and Ghetto Thang are outstanding rap songs by any standards. This LP is a groundbreaker for rap music, so grab hold of Three Feet High and Rising and do as De La does. Get converted (perverted] to the inner sound of Daisy Rap. De La Soul are the flipside of every crotch-grabbing, sexist violent rap cliche, Essential.
Sad, but rock and roll, I mean straight-ahead, no frills rock and roll has been largely devalued as an art form, Progressive-rock, jazz-rock, and art-rock all carry with them connotations of instrumental virtuosity; bluesrock and country-rock have the traditionalist appeal; folk-rock implies lyrical excellence. Rock and roll, though, has been largely ,consigned to the re’alm of beer commercials and uncultured boors who think that a Fellini film is a movie about pasta, But if Aristotle maintained that the best art achieves its. effects through catharsis and pure release, then 13 Engines have created the highest art out of the simplest and rawest of rock and roll. The follow-up to their excellent 1987 debut, Before Our Time, Byram Lake Bhm is even harder than its predecessor, combining the band’s considerable melodic finesse with yet more muscle than Before Our Time flexed. The grooves here are packed to bursting with weighty, fulsome riffs of hugely distorted guitars, the kind that brain radio programmers senseless, exhorting them to beg, “Whoa, there, boys, wouldn’t you like to turn those guitars down just a little bit?”
by Andy Koch Imprint staff It’s fitting that this review is printed during the week of International Women’s Day, being as the band takes its name from an anti-rape slogan. Besides, it provides a good excuse as to why I’ve taken my time in getting around to review this festering boil of excruciatingly remarkable noise. Yes, the new NoMeansNo record is on the racks [only the import racks so far] and I face the arduous task of doing this album justice with
“Choke on this,” retort the Engines as they dive into the overthe-top seventies grind of Gimme Now with all the subtlety of old Alice Cooper or MC5. And then it’s off the top rope with an elbow drop to the lower sternum area with the blistering and supremely funky Blue Funk, taking a riff or two from-Living Colour with a rhythm section tighter than Donald Trump’s hatband. After giving yer butt a good kicking for forty-plus minutes of vinyl, Jon Critchley’s plaintive singing can even jerk a tear or three out of you with the country lilting Blue Smoke Curl. There’s not a soft track in sight, but nothing compares than mere words. So let us begin by making an analogy; one which I fear may threaten what precious little credibility that I possess as a hack writer, I’d like to propose that NoMeansNo are the Rush of underground music. “Rush? Are the eviyou insane? ‘* Here’s dence: 1) both bands are made up of’ three, geeky Canadians, 21 both are made up of uncommonly talented musicians who indulge in an abundance of syncopation’ jazzy breaks etc. and 3) both have the habit of recording exhaustingly, long and complex tunes, Yes, folks, NoMeansNo may possibly be Alex, Geddy and Neil in disguise; three rock stars in search of an outlet for their primitive energies: But, NoMeansNo have no use for synthesizers, stardom, or science fiction. Instead, they are treading primordial water in hope of reaching an equilibrium between technically proficient craft and the punk/ noise underground that supports them.

the orgiastic frenzy of of My Time. Shifting gears more than a Formula One driver, 13 Engines play with studio precision, but also with the heads down, spontaneous exuberance and fury, extended soloing, and noise-forthe-sheer-fun-of-it of a concertclosing barnburner for a face-full of rock and roll brilliance. As good as virtually anything on SST or Homestead or the other big “alternative rock” labels’ if anyone releases a better rock and roll album than Byram Lake Blues this year (and since The Replacements have already failed in that quest, the chances are significantly lessened), 1989 will go down as a banner year. dexterity from the infectious and accessible Dark Ages to the rollicking hardcore of Teresa to the power-chord sludge-rock of Real Love. There’s nary a dull moment as the band has finally become comfortable with the studio and doesn’t bother attempting to emulate their fierce live sound. The record does have its faults. Several of the eight tracks clock in at an unprecedented six to ten minutes. Such lengths are hard to swallow, and NoMeansNo’s songs build to such intense climaxes, that the listener is left too worn out to embark on the next musical expedition. Some may argue that the band gets a bit self-indulgent at times, but as compared to the pretentiousness of their Sonic and Butthole contemporaries, NoMeansNo sound like they sincerely feel every verse and phrase. Lyrically’ this album continues to probe the cerebral caverns of the human psyche, coughing up at us the scum that we try to ignore, While there’s nothing here qs striking as Dad, this disc has its strong moments. Junk seems to touch upon environmental problems and the title track debunks the [music) business world, There is also, an uncharacteristically optimistic tone to Victory which concludes with the profound declaration that: “For every defeat/ there is a victory.” It’s important to note that the intense and maniacal sounds of NoMeansNo are not for everyone; this, as with their previous product is basically a like-it or leave-it affair. But if this kind of thing tickles your fancy, then check out the cassette and CD versions which also include the Day Everything Became Nothing EP. And finally, catch these guys in a live setting at Phil’s on March 22, where they’re sure to really kick out the

A mouthful of creamydeath by John-boy Hymens Imprint etaff
The Dead Milkmen are a slap in the face of “attitude,” a rude awakening from the anthemic power chotds of today’s rock’n‘roll and from the inherent mindlessness of most pop. Though not one-of-a-kind, their irreverent lyrics and deft understanding of their own sound, makes them one of the last remaining “punk” bands. They do what they want and don’t rely on high schoolers to spray-paint “Dead Milkmen” on their army surplus garb (right above the circled “A” for anarchy).
ple seem to be attracted to the band. Sometimes people come up to me and say like, ‘Man, that song Stuart, I know what it is about cuz I know, I know what the queers are doin’ to the soil.’ There are some real odd human beings out there. I have to watch my back every time that I leave my front door. I have been threatened for, some really dumb shit that I’ve done on stage, but that’s the kind of thing we were hoping . for. I consider threats to be a pretty positive response,, At least people are paying attention,”

But, (neither) the PMRC, nor any religious organization, ever singled us out, I was pretty upset by that cuz I have been trying for that,’ for a while. 1 think they were just concerned with King Diamond and The Mentors.

In the end, the stress which movies are supposed to alleviate is only increased by the no-win decision-making process of which movie to see. Fortunately, there are still some of us unaffected by the insidious control process which constantly abrades our psychic dermis. As such, we are in a position to recommend which movies you would do best spend your hard-earned silver pieces on. One such picture is True Believer, a grand, blustering courtroom drama starring James Woods as Eddie Dodd, a lawyer who made a name for himself by defending dissenters [read freedom fighters) in the ‘60’s. Now he must content himself by fighting against infringements made by those soldiers of the controlling elite, the police; he spends most of his time keeping coke barons out of jail. Then along comes Roger Baron (Robert Downey Jr.], an idealistic young law graduate, who wants to work with Eddie, but is

Fans of the Waterloo Warriors football team must be wondering what setback will plague their club next. Will Seagram’s Stadium burn to the ground? Will someone steal all of their equipment? I know, the coaching staff will be kidnapped by an alien spaceship and shuttled off to a distant planet, right? While no one knows what fate has in store for the much-maligned Warriors, head coach Dave “Tuffy” Knight is trying to make the team’s future a little brighter. After all, their recent history is nothing to brag about. The Warriors are the not-soproud owners of a a&game losing streak which dates all the way back to October 13, 1984. How long ago was that? Well, Ronald Reagan was still in his first term ati U.S. president, and the Detroit Tigers were busy winning the World Series. Another scar on the Warrior programme is the player rebellion of October 1987, which saw Bob McKillop usurped as head
coach. In the often scandalous months that followed, .the programme itself almost met its demise, I3olstered by alumni support, the UW athletic department headed into 1988 determined to erase the disastrous memories. When Knight was hired away from his post as personnel director of the Toronto Argonauts in February 1988, many thought the elusive win was just a few months away. Knight, the second “winningest” coach in CIAU history at 104-47-4, is the man responsible for constructing the powerful Wilfrid Laurier football juggernaut just down the street. But with a late start in recruiting ‘and only a tarnished reputation to sell, Knight was unable to attract any quality high school players to Waterloo. Yet the biggest blow to Knight’s rebuilding plan turned out to be the failure of his own health. On September 3, after ‘coaching his first game on’ the Waterloo sideline (an exhibition match against WLU), Knight .was admitted to hospital having suffered a heart attack. Knight was unable to return to
the sidelines or the office in 1988, and while assistant coach Chuck McMann was a quality replacement, Knight’s motivating presence was missed. For the fourth consecutive season, the Warriors hobbled through an 0-7 season and were mired in the OUAA basement. Although they showed much improvement, and almost ended the losing skid in a 20-18 nailbiter against York, the jinx remained - no victory. But things should be different this season. As opposed to 1988, Knight has got an early jump on the recruiting scene, and has been conducting winter workouts since early January for players on campus. In fact, Knight and his assistants, McMann and Ken Hussey, have visited 125 high schools in Ontario as of last week. “There’s not too many left in the province,” quipped Knight“There’s some in Ottawa that we haven’t got to yet. We’ve covered the whole province. We haven’t been up to Sudbur or the Sault but we’ll get up t x ere on the winter breaks. We’ve also been to Montreal.” Knight contends that the re-
sponge has been overwhelming compared to last year, “We’ve had probably 140 kids visit the school, so if they’ve visited, they’re probably interested, The key is to have them put you on the application. I *would say maybe 60 per cent have us listed, Of the other 40 per cent I’d say 20 have told us they will amend their applications. Whether they’ will or not, we’ll wait and see.” Knight proclaims that UW is miles ahead of last year’s recruiting bust. “It’s 100 per cent better than last year. We got to the kids before the applications were mailed out in November. Then there’s the kids who have amended their applications. We’re way ahead as far as making contacts, getting out there and having the line on kids. I’d only been here two weeks at this time last year, and we hadn’t had maybe six or eight kids visit the school. We had a lot of kids visit the school in March or April, but about 90 per cent of them already had their minds made up, The kids that we got, we had to convince them to come here, and had to convince them not to go any-
where else. This year we got to them when they had an open mind.‘.’ Knight still admits it’s no easy Itask trying to sell a programme with a history of futility like Waterloo’s, “It’s a hard sell. It’s easier this year, once you get the kids here. If you don’t get the kids here, there’s other people out there ‘saying ‘yeah, they’re going to have a programme but it’s not ‘going to be good for four or five years.’ Here’s a kid who’s coming ‘here as a freshman and he doesn’t want to waste his time 1while we rebuild the proigramme. But we’re convinced it’s !not going to take that long, we’re ,trying to sell to kids that we’ll be competitive right away.” Knight doesn’t feel that UW’s stringent academic standards present any impediments to recruiting, “I don’t think it’s any different from other schools in the province. I think there are other schools that are a little easier than here, but there are schools which are just as tough. To say tinthued

Now third ranked nationally, the Warriors are destined for Calgary. No matter what the result in the OUAA final, their ranking guar’antees them a spot as a wildcard team. Winners of the CWUAA, OUAA, QUAA, and AUAA gain automatic births. With Calgary hosting and probably the CWUAA champs as well, there is a possibility for four wildcard entries, Waterloo coach Rob Atkinson provided the motivation for his players to pressure Western from beginning to end. “They are the last team to defeat us,” was one of his pre-game locker room talk’ strategies to his cohorts, “Western is a capaing
ble team. They do have a certain amount of talent,” Witness Paul Husson, Western’s powerful middle hitter and leader on the floor, or rather, in the air. If the Mustang passing is ever on, this man could provide a few headaches for opposition blockers, Husson can hit the ball with a great amount of authority,
Atkinson told his players to be “agressive and patient.” He knew that Western would try something different, whether it was rotation, passing, or offence, but that they would go back to being predictable if the pressure was on, As it was, the Mustangs couldn’t help but be predictable. Their passing was atrocious, allowing Waterloo to mount a quick 13-2 lead in the first game of the match. The nonexistent blocking from the previous

week’s encounter with McMaster reappeared against the Mustangs, with middle blockers Steve Heck and Scott Smith coming up with a few slams to excite the large crowd. Steve Wenn, Western’s coach, had stated that the Mustang’s previous loss to Waterloo was due to intimidation on the part of the multitude of Warrior fans. There were even more at this match, and the young, inexperienced Mustangs were tight. However, if you can’t play at your best in front of enemy fans, why bother attempting to get to the CIAU’s? The Warriors let up a bit in the second game. Their blocking broke down and their defence was not as aggressive as it should have been. This in combination with hitting errors allowed Western to ‘scrap it out’. It wasn’t until the score was 12-11 in favour of UW that momentum switched in to Waterloo’s corner. With Waterloo serving+ -Heck and offside Lech Bekesza went to work, slamming Husson twice in a row to extend the lead to 14-11, The crowd was in a frenzy, as they were looking forward to another rooftop stuff block to win the game.

Tuffy determined to end misery Continued from page 27 that we’re tougher is not true. There’s probably three-quarters of the schools in the province that are just as tough as we are, If you want to go into engineering, that’s*tough. There are other programmes that you can get into just the same as other universities.” But no matter how many high school prospects Knight and his coaches visit, the ultimate test of success is how many enrdll at Waterloo, “Whether we get any of them or not is another story,‘+ he cautioned. Knight has already started his players on a training programme for the upcoming season. The winter camp has been primarily composed of agility drills. “We’re trying to develop quick footwork+ some quick reactions+ agility and reflexes, I think the camp serves three purposes. First, it gets your kids together during the winter and they talk football - if ou’re going to have a successfu Y programme you have to talk football iA the winter, We think it also brings our
L
players together as a unit, and they get to know each other. In order to have success you have to know each other, you have to like each other, this is what this does during the winter for us. Also, the quickness and agility are important, We put the kids on a weight programme and we’ve been testing them.” Knight noted that the new weight room in the PAC has helped his team during training, but has also opened the eyes of some prospective Warriors. “I had a lot of recruits come in here and look at that weight room, and boy, right away, if they’re real top notch football players and a weight programme is important to them, and they see the weight room they_ say ‘these guys are pretty serious about their football programme’.” Knight feels the early training camp will give him a chance to eliminate those players lacking in dedication. “Right now, we can weed out the kids that aren’t committed. We have some kids that aren’t
committed to the programme, and we’re going to get rid of them now.”

Although he’s been told by his doctors to turn down the volume somewhat, he says he’s feeling fine. “I’m feeling pretty good. I’m not supposed to overtax myself, but I don’t know how you define that, I just make the assistant coaches work a little harder.” Even though opening day is still six months away, the Warriors are determined to put an end to their unbelievable futility streak. As long as they can stave
off some unlucky disasters between now and then, some UW fans might experience their first ever football win.

Athenas grab 5th by Blair Falconer Imprint staff University of Toronto bore the brunt of an invasion of field hockey teams from across Ontario last weekend as the Lady Blues hosted the OWIAA indoor field championships. The Waterloo Athenas started competition Saturday in round robin play with powerhouse York, Guelph, and Queen’s, looking for a couple of strong early games to set the tone for the weekend. First up was York, a prohibitive favorite to win the pool. With a stingy defence and playing a carefully mapped conservative strategy from coach Judy McCrae, the Athenas held York to a mere five goals, but could only muster one themselves. The 5-1 loss was very encouraging though, as York usually plays to a blowout - a moral victory for

Queen’s, in the second game, fell victim to a confident Athena squad which pressured the Queen’s defence throughout the game. Despite numerous chances, Waterloo could not finitih and the 3-1 final does not reflect the domination of the Athena win.
Beating Queen’s set up a crucial match with Guelph. Both teams were at l-1, and a win here would propel Waterloo into the championship round while a loss meant relegation to the consolation.
Fired up for this match, both teams put on a show. The seesaw battle saw the Athenas draw first blood, just to have Guelph quickly knot the score. Before the half though, Waterloo scored again togo to the dressing room with a 2-1 lead. The second half mirrored the first, as play went back and forth. Defenders Sarah Keith and Jamie McNeil1 shone in denying the Guelph offence. Finally, Guelph again scored on a pretty play to tie things up. Waterloo pressed the Guelph but were unable to bulge the twine despite a heavy edge in shots and penalty corners. A bare four minutes were left in the net,

Veteran Corinna -
One of the most dominant and valuable players in Waterloo Athenas basketball over the past five years has been 6’1” post/forward Corinna Lueg, Known mainly for her “catlike” quickness on offense and constant determination in the paint, Lueghad a very successful four-year career at Waterloo, playing in the 1984-85, 1985-86, 1988-87, and 1988-89 seasons, She spent the 1987-88 season on a work term in Australia, and while there, played recreational basketball and coached two different school teams. Currently in her 4B school term in Mathematics [Actuarial Science), Lueg has never let her involvement in sports affect her exemplary academic record, In honour of this achievement, Lueg received the Mike Moser Award this year for her combined efforts. “Corinna was always a team leader and gave IOO per cent out on the court,” commented current Athena head coach Leslie Dal Cin, adding, “Her constant force and determination was a threat to our opponents both defensively and offensively.” As a tribute to Lueg’s fine career at Waterloo, this year’s basketball team wore her number fifteen on the sleeves of their uniforms in Lueg’s final game as

It also looks like Lueg will be the recipient of the MVP award in Athena basketball at the March 22nd athletic banquet. Some of Lueg’s basketball achievements include: - named as an OWIAA firstteam all-star in her first three years 11984-85, 1985-86, and 1986-87 seasons] - played on Ontario provincial team in 1984, 1985, 1986 (team won gold medal in each of the three years] - first in assists in West division in first half of rookie season, with 20 in 1984-85 - top ten in rebounding in West division in rookie season, with 6.3 rebounds/game - named athlete of the week twice in rookie year - currently in the top five in alltime Athena basketball scoring (actual rank unavailable until season totals tabulated) - finished in the top five in West division scoring and rebounding,

Waterloo by Graema Pappler Imprint staff Tom Ponting was Calgary’s giant killer last weekend at UBC as the University of Calgary Dinosaurs men won another CIAU swimming championship. The stocky Canadian national team member, fresh- from sterling swims on the World Cup swimming circuit, blistered his wav to victories in the 2OO-metre 1.M and the 200 and 100-metres fly. The latter was in a world best time, and captured the outstanding male swimmer-of-themeet award for the effort.

By the 25-metre mark of the loo-metre fly, Panting was leading the field by a body length. His competitors lost sight of him soon after that. He pushed his supremacy to the extreme, finishing in 52.62 seconds+ three seconds clear of teammate Scott Isaac in second position. His 20&metre fly was as dominant - 1 minute, 55.6 seconds his Canadian and Commonwealth record-setting time for the event.

Meanwhile, her brother is the best player on the University of Toronto volleyball club, and was a Junior*National for two years. Lueg will now begin a fulltime job in Australia in May for the next three years. When asked what’s in store for the future, Lueg replied, “I will probably play a bit of recreational basketball and start to become involved more in coaching. As far as competitive basketball goes, I think I’ll give my battered body a rest for a while.” Corinna is right. She has taken quite a beating this year, playing with a broken thumb for nine games and &earing tape for 22 of her last 23 games. General consensus df the rest of the team is that Lueg will be greatly missed, both as an athlete and as a friend. Lueg, Ontario,

There seems to have been a big void left at Columbia Ice Fields after the unfortunate early departure of the hockey Warriors from post regular season play.

That’s right, competitive and entertaining hockey can still be. had at the Icefield as teams in six divisions battle it out for the coveted Campus Recreation championship crowns. In regular season play, the mighty Casual Assassins claimed top spot in A Division with a perfect record of five victories in five outings. In B League, Poor Kid and Waterloo Dynamo took top honours in Division I each with four wins and a tie. The Wailers, Gupies Gumpies and Tufay’s Knight’s lead their divisions in the remaining three B Divisions, and there are still a handful of results to come in.

The teams competing included six Ontario universities, as well as senior women’s teams from ot!Ter communities. After losing the first game to the eventual group A champions, the Guelph senior women, the Waterloo squad won its next two games. The second game was played against the University of Guelph. Waterloo forward Sheri MacDonald scored the only goal on an excellent hard low drive that beat the Guelph keeper cleanly. With

This win ensured a return trip to Guelph on Sunday afternoon to play for the bronze medal. illness and injury had reduced the Waterloo team to only eight players, but a determined squad took to the floor against the North Bay senior women.
