UW ,kicks into action by ludy Imprint

Hollands staff

Outrage and concern inspired nearly 1000 people to march and protest at UW last week in support of recent victims of violence and oppression in China. The protest on Tuesday afternoon was the most extensive and successful outburst of political participation seen at this university in vears. ?‘he crowd began to gather at LOO p.m. an the PAC patio, and included students’, staff and professor,s from UW and Laurier. Three speakers addressed the crowd including Jiang Dti, President of the Chinese Students and He Scholars Ass.ociation. thanked the crowd for their support and encouraged them to continue to speak-out, saying, “They (the Chinese protesters) need encouragement from the other side of the world. They need support, bath moral and financial..he people there care abbut what we are doing.” Also condoning the protestors’ support of the Chinese student movement was Ernie Lucy, Dean of Student& who said, “This is unfortunately not the first time

that students have been fired upon by governments that have f& threatened. It has happened in the USA, France, throughout South America -and most recently in South Korea,” After his talk, the crowd was silent and faces were somber for 15 seconds in honour of those who have died and been injured. Tim Calling, Federation of Students VP Operations and Finance‘, told thi crownd about what the Federation was doing to s‘upport the students in China. They have faxed news releases to override the press blackout which the Chinese government has invoked, and were also urg‘ing the federal government to extend visas for Chinese students currently in Canada. This extension was granted on June 9. Carrying signs and wearing black arm bands in recognition of those who died, the crowd began a procession around ring road, Chanting as they marched, the pratestors demanded an end to the violence with the slogans, “long live democracy,“stop violenc&“, “we want freedom of speech” and “stop the killing.” Dewei Q1, a PhD student in

Th4 thought of such deplorable violation of human rights was Obscene to many students. Lianne Bailey, a political science major, said, “I hope the Chinese people see this support. This infringement on human rights makes me sick to my stomach.” Not only did the march draw support, but a petition initiated

by Daniel Ponech, a 4th year environmental studies student, drew 600 signatures by the end of the march and rally. Over the course of the afternoon and next day the total signatures reached 1600.

The, petition was sent last Thursday to the Central Committat) of the Communist Party of the People’s Republic of Chin& the Canadian Embassy in Beijing, th& Chinese Embassy in Ottawti, a&d to the Canadian Mini*er of;External Affairs. Poech 8@ up his petition Sunday ni’orning after he first heard . / *

about the massacre in Tienamen Square. He said, “it is something that’s got to be done. i’ve got friends in China,” He was pleased about the awareness over this issue and compared participation in the protest and petition signing to typical turn out for Fed elections. Ponech also received $140 to help him fax copies of the petition to China. His first attempts got through, but subsequent transmissions were blocked. He gave the rest of the money to the Federation, of Students to assist in their faxing of news releases to China. It was the Federation of Students which organized this successful rally in just 12 hours. When asked why,he thought this protest was so successful compared to others organized in the past few years, Tim Collins said, “this is an issue which everybody cared about and could identify with.” The march was advertised extensively in the residences, clubs and over local radio and television stations. Collins said he was pleased with the support and cooperation of the commun-

ity in promoting the rally. Some professors even cancelled classes to allow people to participate. In view of recent mass arrests of students in China, the Feds are only faxing nlews releases to businesses and not to universities. The Feds are also lobbying the government to provide visiting Chinese students with either work visas or funding so they can stay in Canada until it is safe for them to return home.

Blueprint for Action shot down by OFS [STAFF)-“OFS gave it the big raspberry:’ said Fed President Dave Readman of a proposal to ease underfunding that was struck down at a recent Ontario Federation of Students conference. Readman was referring to Ontario’s Universities: A Blueprint for Action, a proposal endorsed by the Council of Ontario Universities. The OFS Annual General Meeting was hosted by Brock university in St. Catharines from June 5-10. Over one hundred delelgates

from Ontario universities and colleges met with Lyn Mcleod, minister of colleges and universities and Jim Bradley, minister bf the environment. OFS Chairperson Shelly Potter criticized Mcleod for lack of student funding and the high tuition paid by foreign students. But she did credit the minister with reforming OSAP and removing exclusionary by-laws (limiting numbers of unrelated housemates) from ten Ontario towns. Potter ‘called for “political

Professor by Marc Reppin Imprint staff Canadian universities face a severe staffing shortage over the next two decades, says the Canadian Association of University Teachers. The generation of professors hired during the expansion years of the late 1960s and early 1970s will soon be retiring. Despite modest increases in enrolment, graduate schools will be unable to provide enough qualified candidates to replace departing faculty members. For students, the shortage threatens larger classes and a further deterioration in educational standards. Critics charge that the universities are little prepared to meet the approaching crisis. A recent article in the Canadian &sociation of University Teachers’ publication states that universities have “no apparent long-term

She illustrated the extent of underfunding by referring to leaky roofs in several buildings at large pails are Brock - where scattered in the hallways to collect the water. .

would be paying $2036 per year in tuition. The plan calls for increased funding to “improve the classroom experience“ by reducing class sizes’, updating lab equipment, improving library conditions, and offering final-year students more chances-for individual supervision. Witnessing “degradation of the learning environment,“ said Fraser, motivated his drafting of the plan. He said the plan is affordable to the government, pointing to last year‘s $2.66 billion surplus. Dr. Janice Newson of York University objected to the plan: “the deal asks us to pay the price.” Newson feared that the proposed tuition hikes would limit accessability and foster close-mindedness. Comparing the Blueprint to a bargaining table proposal, she told delegates the government should contribute the three without the students having to contribute the one. The proposal was voted down by OFS delegates. Said Readman‘, “in principal, it’s a good idea . . . but we wondered if students would end up being hurt by it.” He said that although 30 to 40 per cent of the student portion would go’ into student assistance programs like OSAP, he wasn‘t sure whether that would be enough. Readman also noted a general trend to tiore task-oriented as opposed to isues-oriented discussion at the AGM: “It was the first time there’s been any real debate on real educational issues a lot of good points were broight out on both sides.”

No UW students have been charged although the service advertised >in Imprint for several years before it was closed down. Current UW policy states that if plagiarism hearings are conducted, the faculty advisors and professors conduct hearing interviews and recommend punishment. If guilt is determined, penalties can range from a failing grade to expulsion.

This year’s campaign focusses on informing students about Cystic Fibrosis (CF) -the cause Shinerama supports. Attacking the lungs and digestive system, CF takes the lives of more Canadian children than any other inherited disease. One in iwenty Canadians carries the gene, and one in four children born to parents who are both carriers will be born with CF. Cystic Fibrosis research aims to develop a test which detects carriers of CF, to better treat patients with CF, and, ultimately, to find a cureCanada is a world leader in CF research which has led to a decrease in the average daily intake of pills by CF patients from 100 to 20 in the last decade.

Klungel says he is not bitter about the situation, but also stated “They had an opportunity to create aniother bilingual Canadiari, and instead what they basically did was harass me out of my job.” G,arneau said that “he left because he was not bilingual he thinks it’s better for the &Aeration :if he left.” Although he supports bilingualism in OFS, Klungel says, “I don’t think that it requires every single staff member be bilingual for the members to be served properly.” The position of executive director has not been filled since Klungel’s departure in April.

COMMENT

Student movement a turning point? Radical and idealistic, Chinese student movements of this century have always been driven by fervent nationalism. Deeply aware of their culture’s long and brilliant past, theqe students have desired a strong and vigorous China, assured of a prominent place in the hierarchy of nations, Whenever that dream was seriousli threatened, the students have taken to the streets, At varitius times, Western powers have provided the external threat; weak, corrupt governments the internal. The M’ay 4 movement of 1919 was a response to the government’s meekness in the face of Japanese expansionist policies. The December 9 movement of 1935 centred on the civil war and Japanese military aggression* The perceived threats have also been economic&d ideological, The May 30 movement of 1925 was directed against foreign-owned industries, particularly the textile mills of Shanghai. The protests of 1946 and 1947 were in part a reaction to economic instability. The Proletarian Cultural Revolution reflected concerns over an increasingly bureaucratized society that had lost sight of the ideals of the revolution, Today the villains are much the same. Deng’s economic reforms have brought Western investors seeking both a massive market and cheap labour. As in other Third world nations, the “reforms” have only exacerbated existing social inequalities. Those who have benefited most spectacularly from the reforms have been chiefly corrupt party officials or certain privileged individuals with the right connectigns. The “democracy” the students seek is therefore better understood in the more limited sense of shaking up a stagnant bureaucracy, It does not in any way imply a rejection of socialism. The students responded warmly to Gorbachev, whom they considered a socialist reformer, The student movement is finished - but only for the moment. Contrary to persistent media claims, recent events have not marked a turning point in China’s history. Flare-ups of student unrest have occurred nearly livery decade since the May 4 movemeM. The absence of the leadership and the brutal&y of the crackdown perhaps suggest the party was unsure .of how to react. J3ut the students were once again pawns in a power struggle this time a struggle high up in the party. The Chinese Communist Party has traditionally reacted coolly to students, preferring to manipulate them for its own ends and then abandoning or crushing them once they were no longer required. The students will ‘return, to voice their opinions on the regime’s ‘forthcoming policies* But not until well into the next decade. Marc Reppin

One thousand people gathered together to express their feelinks about an event on the other side of the world, Waterloo is not distinguished for its outspokenness on issues of the day, “Apathy” and “self interest” have always been the most visiblb motivating factors here, Yet, something so profound -had occurred t,his time as to shake us all awake, and bring us together. The first weekend of lune was historic in many parts of our global village. Our international student body is affected by each of the dramatic events, be they in the US.S.R,~ Poland, Iran oi China. ’ 6f course, China eclipsed everything else. It touched something universal, a common hurpardy we all share. It has left an emotional legacy we shall carry with us from now on, One smalj exampleb of this was the first large protest this camptis has seen in fifteen years - the “Beijing Massacre Protest March.” No other event in recent mei mory.so offends any semblance of human decency as the horrible butchery of .peaceful, unarmed human beings by tanks and automatic weapons in Tiananmen Square. Tiananmen means “Square of the Gate of Heavenly Peace,” what might be termed a “political woodstock” has taken place there, a sp~ontaneous mass movement of ordinary people asking for change. They were branded “agitators” who ha-d ‘6damaged production and social order, and our country’s international reputation,” by Premier Li Peng. Their peaceful call for an -end to corruption and a free press were met with a hail of bullets.

On top of the holocaust of its own people, the Chinese governmerit is now with callous satisfaction churning, out the most outrageous lies in their re-writing of history. A banner atop the Beijing Hotel, overlooking the now “cleaned up” square, has on it a message worthy of George Orweb novel 1984: “..,Long live the great, Tglorjous and correct Chinese Communist Party.” What can these words possibly mean to anyone who saw the attack and survived? And what about th& families? ,what “legitimate” g&ernment would deny the existence of the many thousands of people whose lives have been shattered by this catas* : trophe? 1 am able to express my outrage at this situation,< those physically affected are not. 1 cannot imagine the immense, unimagintible frustration ttiey must now be experiencing. Canadians have absolutely no concepti*& of what it must be like to live un&r such totalcoercion, corruption.and lies held in lace by the very reql thfeat of fl rute fur&. By no means was this event unprecedented in human. history. Perhabs the most frightening fact of all is that it is aI1 happened so often before, all over the world. ,The important dif’ference was this time we saw it. We are witnesses to the brutality and th6 lies. Of course, our parents’ generation saw their, horrors, and their parents before them. “There is nothing new under the sun”, Perhaps each generation has to learn the same lesson over again. It seems the will to control butweighs all other aspects of the human imagination once it has gained predominance, Nothing but the desire to continue in

power could possibly have motivated the Massacre on June 4. I was proud of our campus to see such a gratifying response to the “students supporting students” demonstration on June Chinese students so closely touched by this great tragedy surrounded by non-Chinese who fully support their concerns and share their outrage. This, is a crime against humanity+ we are all affected deeply by it, As I scanned the crowd before we begcn our march around Ring Road, I couM not comprehepd that anywhere between seven tintes as many people had been: savagely murdered only a few days before. How can F&h. immevse casualties be subie- t quently denied? How can newscasters one night call them “yound patriots” and the next “counter-revolutionaries”” and “hooligans”? . . Or

even

can’lthe .lead& ship only have a moment of $silence for the fallen soldiers, an,d nothing for the victims, most its rumored, cremated so as never to be finally couhted? Every night the newscasts display the new informer h&line number where people can ,betray their neighhours with impunity!

seemingly

worse,

triumphant

What pathetic little we could do to remember and honour our fallen contemporaries we did: What ever more we can do to ensure that the curtain of lies is shredded and the truth reaches the Chinese people we will do. After that, we must never allow ourselves to forget what has happened, and however long it takes, whatever form it takes do our utmost to support the move for change in China, a land the world has always respected and admired.

“They had to hose them down with water cannons, Overcomb with such grief that they were oblivious to the danger+ the mourners of Ayatollah Khomeini surged forward every time the helicopter bearing his body to the funeral attempted to land. The water cannons were brought in to clear a landing area; to keep the crowd from thrusting themselves into the whirling blades. “Finally able to land, the airborne hearse set down and was immediately swarming with grieving Jranians. They clutched at the simple cloth shrouding the body believing it to be divinely blessed. In their freniy, they shredded the cloth and dumped the Ayatollah’s body to the ground. “Their grief was so great, that they even leapt into the simple 6x6x4 hole in the ground to grab handfuls of dirt from his final resting place.” Those are the words I woke up to this morning, It is testament to the nature of the public conscience that sympathy for the students of China has overshadowed the death and funeral of one of the most incomprehensible leaders the world has ever known... I know very little of the life and reign of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini - a shortcoming I’m sure I share with most readers. While I do not agree with what I know of his politics,

I am forced by those opening words to wonder about the man himself. We have no heads of state in the Western world today, perhaDs with the exceDtionof Q&en Elizabeth II, whbse passing would incite such deep and passionate sorrow in the hearts of the people; Were George Bush or Brian Mulroney to die, they would receive a dignified funeral and a respectable period of mourning. No water cannons would be necessary. Perhaps Iranians are more passionate, more emotional than we are. But I think the answer lies not in the leader himself but in the seat of his power. He was not just a political leader, but a reliaious leader as well. A>d it seems sure that it was this role as spiritual leader forged the bonds between him an& his people. His politics set him in bpp&ition to most of Western civilization and much of Eastern as well, His politics set them at odds with the United States, England, Canada and countless other countries as well “as taking them into full scale war with neighbouring Iraq. As I sit here writing this, I must ask myself “Am I saying anything that might get me in trouble with the Islamic peopies?” A paper as small as 1mprint is not likely to receive enough attention tobring a death sentence down on my head.

To the editor, On May 26, I graduated from the faculty of science. I am writing this letter concerning my grad photos taken by Sooters Studio, in Waterloo Town Square. When I first heard in January that Sooters was doing the science graduates’ photos I was extremely pleased since they are known for quality work; their ads always say: “Excellence in photography by Sooter Studios,” and “All work guaranteed, serving Canadians from coast to coast”. My photos were taken in January by the manager/owner Ron Challenger. I paid in full at the time of pickup of my proofs because as their bill of receipt states, “your portraits will be custom made atid require cash in advance, No verbal agreements, cancellations or refunds.”

eyes this summer

With summer here, sunglasses will again become a permanent fixture on people’s faces. These eyepieces are worn both to reduce bright sunlight from entering the eyes and as a fashion accessory. Although the eyes have their own natural defenses such as squinting and pupil constriction, today people need to see under conditions of brightness that the eyes are poorly suited for. Examples of such conditions are driving into the sunlight or working extended periods outdoors, especially in areas near snow or water that cause glare. Individuals differ in iheir tolerance to bright light and since sunglasses work by absorbing specific quantities of light before they enter the eye, they should only be wofn during extended lengths of time in bright sunlight. This provides optimum visual comfort from the sun’s rays. Short term effects without eye protection during prolonged exposure to bright light results in discomforts such as tearing, squinting, blinking, and reduced visual clarity. When selecting your shades, you should ensure they fit well, and have ideal tint and ultraviolet (uv) filtering. If the glasses do not sit close to your eyes, 80 per cent of the &light that is supposed to be blocked can be let in. Even though dark lenses cut sunlight, they may not have a filter for uv light. Ultraviolet and infra-red are extremely powerful rays found in sunlight. lnfra-red rays produce heat and make the eyes feel hot and dry. Studies show uv absorption can lead to cataract developing in the eye’s lens, degeneration of the retina, and damage to other delicate eye tissues. Ultraviolet radiation is invisible, so it does not make people squint. Sunglasses without an uv filter only worsens the situation by blocking out direct sunlight, which opens the pupils wider and permits the eyes to absorb more uv rays. Sunglasses with uv

filters- are usually marked by a manufacturer’s label, and do not require a designer name or ou1rageous price tag. There is a range of uv filter effectiveness between 100 to 400 nanometres. A UWOO lens blocks almost all uv rays. Besides having a uv filter, quality lenses are ground and polished to be free of distortions and imperfections. Equally important is perfectly matched’ absorptive power and colour of both lenses. Some tints are more effective than others in reducing glare. Dark green, brown, and grey tints minimize glare problems, with grey also beingthe best at minimizing colour distortion. Yellow and orange are effective for glare on cloudy days. AI1 other tints exist mainly for cosmetic reasons, offering little glare reduction and displaying much colour distortion. , For people who wear contacts at” the same time, their sensitivi,ty to light is increased in bright sunlight. Wearing plain ground sunglasses can make vision in bright light more comfortable for lens wearers. A final word of caution for those who think Jheir shades are a must everywhere: sunglasses are made for outdoor, daytime use only! Continued wear in dim lighting or indoors will interfere with the eye’s natural ability to tolerate normal light. They should never be worn during7 night driving. So kick back, don a good pair of shades, and enjoy the summer sun!!

With such drastic regiment for payment one was given the impression (and yes, it was only an impression as it turned out) that indeed “all work was guaranteed,” I made a full payment of $142.56 as the copy.of my receipt enclosed proves. I also asked if the lighting and colouring of the proofs would-be improved when my order came in four weeks later. I was told and I quote: “Of course, that is why these are called your “proofs”, yours will look similar to ‘this past graduate’s photo that we have here on display so you can see what the finished product looks like.” I was pleased since the one on display ,had all the right lighting and was professionally taken. I picked up my order four weeks later and looked at the s by 7 I ordered (which by the way was the same size as my 10 proofs] and I could not even tell which was the proof and which was the finished product neither could my father. It was just handed to me without a folder, along with my 11 by 14 portraits. The 5 by 7 was cut unevenly and had a yellow dye colour running down the edge of the photo. Not what I exactly consider “professional” or “quality work”. The lighting had not been changed from my proofs. Actually my two large 11 by 14s were disastrous. I came home disappointed but decided that maybe once framed, the photos would not look so bad. I had them -framed by a real professional -

Kings Framing (on King SL Kit.) where I get all1 my oil paintings ,framed. I even paid extra to frame them with special nonglare glass. When I hung them up at home, the frames still could not do justice to the poor quality work of the photography. I had white lights or “shine” to put it tchnitally on my forehead and my cheeks. 1 literally looked like a ghost in my pictures, All my friends and family told me that compared to my Grade 12 portrait (done by Rutherford Studios in Kitchener) these were no cbmparison, ithey were simply disasterous. Based on these criticisms and with my mounting disappointment I decided to phone Mr. Ron Challenger on May 29, 1989 at 8:00 pm. I personally spoke to him on the phone and explained the dis-, satisfaction with my photographs and also informed that my Grade 12 portrait was done more professionally and did not look like the *‘mess that this studio presented me with.” In response, he told me to bring inmy Grade 12 portrait along with my order back, so he could see them. My Grade 12 was also the same size (11 by 14”) and. framed also at King Framing. I went to Sooter Studios in Waterloo Town Square to speak with Mr. Ron Challenger and show him my portraits as he had requested the previous night on the phone. I told the lady I was speaking to the manager the night before and he was expecting me today. She kindly told me ‘Continued on page 8

Misguided stuc ents miss the point 1 To the editor, In the midst of the current uproar in China, a 21 year old student informed the nation’s 84 year old leader, “You really don’t understand the point!” This reminds us of a cartoon we saw some years ago which depicted a student rushing out of university and proclaiming to the world, “I’ve just got my B.A.!” The world responded, “Take it easy son, sit down and I’ll teach you the rest of the alphabet.” Too many university students these days are idealistic youngsters who would tear down all existing institutions overnight,

to wait a minute and went to call the manager. Only then did I realize he was sitting right by the door’s entrance to the mall. She came back and informed me that she would take care of it, since the manager had refused to come and speak to me face to face. I carried three heavy framed 11 by 14 pictures from the parking lot to the studio, to find out that the manager refused to live up to his word and come to see the poor workmanship of the photography, compared to the excellent work done with my Grade 12 one as he had requested the night before. There he was sitting at the desk refusing to take two minutes out to speak with one of his customers. It is due to this poor customer treatment by a manager/owner that I am writing this letter to the editor. If he had been not so rude, indifferent and with that attitude of: “They are just young girls [my sister helped me carry the heavy photos). I could care less about the . quality of her portrait, I already have my money she can’t get a refund and I still have many customers, one will not be important enough to cause me any concern,” then I would not have reason to write this letter. I do realize that everyone makes mistakes, whether it be in photography, photofinishing, or on a midterm test! However, the rudeness and indifference, lack of concern, or care of the manager was not called for: for as I learned at Sears (I work there part-time as a Customer Service Representative], the customer is always ’ right! A manager should be responsible for his department, studio, and work. By the way, I wish to thank the assistant manager of Sooter Studios, a lady with the initials S.L. who was kind enough to take my photos out of the frames without damage to be retouched and offered her apologies for the poor treatment given to me by her manager, and promised me when they came back again, they would look as they should have in the first place. I suggest the Manger/Owner should lcsrn a little courtesy and responsibility from his assistant manager. Paula Martins St$mce grad

Strange, but I thought it was not the practice of this university to rent its facilities to groups promoting ideals that conflict with its own. The virtual debarring of the infamous Miss Oh-yousex -object-you -fest pageant seemed an indication of this policy. Surely it must be obvious to everyone (and needs no explanation) why this pageant conflicts with the university’s desire to promote a non-sexist environment. I know it’s completely obvious to me, right honey? So, is this policy to be implemented fully, or only in cases where a lot of noise is made? I draw your attention to the events of the second week of May, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and eighty-nine. The unitiersity gave use of several facilities to boisterous [voiceterous?) evangelical youngsters. Holy rollers, Batman! We’re up to our perineal bodies in Christians! That’s right, they were everywhere. In ‘the PAC tying up the weight room equipment, disturbing athletic demonstrations, filling basketball courts with hallelujahs and amens.

Of course, I usually wouldn’t have a problem with this. I believe one of the founding principles of our great land is the right to be as stupid as you like, providing you don’t hurt anyone. But then I recalled the pageant thing. These pubescent Bible .thumyers had committed every sin of the Miss What%-her-tits pageant tenfold. They were taking away the use of facilities from our students for a much longer time than the pageant. But, worst of all, they offended the highest ideal any university can hold dear to its heart: (No, not bureaucratic form filing!] freedom of intellectual endeavors. I may not be too bright, but I’ll be hog tied and smeared with butter if fundamental Christianity promotes that same environment. One thing most reasonable people can agree on is that fundamentalism promotes aggressive anti-intellectual beliefs. Their fights for creationism is just the tip of the monkey’s tail. So why the special treatment? If the pageant babes don’t bring in as much money, well I guess I can understand. Hey, don’t kid yourself, that’s why we’re all really here; money, Oh., , intellectual pursuits and stuff like that, too.

Focus on Feminism Feminism and civil disobedience by Renee

Beneteau

With sixteen strongly dedicated women, I approached gate nine, instantly trembling at the sight of the policemen, arms folded and standing across the open gate leading into ARMX’89, a giant military hardware show, Many cameras, microphones and press people awaited our move, We were there to oppose Canada’s role in the current escalation of arms trades, its past contribution to the first atomic bomb, nuclear testing, and millions of dollars in arms trades with Third World countries, including brutal .dictatorships. In sum, male violence. We opposed the Canadian government’s continual practice of war on aborigines. We acted on our belief that Canadian policies and our way of life contribute to global racism, and the repression and impoverishment of people all over the world. Globally, women bear the consequences of male violence, both military and “civilian,” through inadequate health care, lacking job opportunities,, poor health, slum housing, absence of child care, rape, prostitution, cancer, and severe poverty. Our struggle for peace must oppose violence and its consequences in all its direct and institutionalized forms. Whether the violence occurs in China or a kitchen in Waterloo’ the varied forms flourish through all others, On crosses and placards w&attached photos of children missing in South Africa, young men tortured in El Salvador, and native women who have felt, first hand, the Canadian government’s commitment to militarism. The action began when we placed the crosses and flowers where the arms buyers and sellers would have to drive over them to learn new methods of violence inside. We sat downacross the gate in waves and began weaving a new and diverse culture with brightly coloured wool. With a woman in her seventies sitting on my right, and a more experienced activist on my left, I joined seven or so women in tossing balls of wool from one end to the other. The wool was woven between and around us, blockading the entrance in a traditional symbol of peace. A creative energy was spun as we attempted, as women, to step outside the usual male structures and processes which continue to bring us greater killing, weapons, and destruction of the environment. We believed and proved that women hold the will to change our patriarchal, misogynist and militaristic culture into a peaceful one. We laughed, aloud, clapped and cheered; “Stop making blood money, ” “Nd more profit from world pain,” “Take the toys away from’ the boys,*’ and “homes not bombs.“’ When the policemen threw the wool away from us, our support people tossed the balls back in and I tangled more and more wool around my feet and neck. A policeman told the woman beside me to stahd up and “walk like a man”bor as women acting this way, we were dangerous.Our message was nervously being heard, “masculinity has made of this world a living hell” - Joan Cavanagh. For the first time, I saw men in the peace movement follow the women, once arrested, as they took our places, sat down at the gate and continued to weave the wool. Each time another person was dragged or lifted onto the bus we cheered. The mix of anxiety and anger lead us to yell bold messages at those who walked by the bus and into the exhibition. Did the messages, shouted from the bus,,need to be put forth so aggressively? Many of us have since wondered. For certain, the press picked up on any phrase or action of slight aggression, reminding us and others of what swayed out of the realm of peaceful resistance. Many people needed to feel that our non-violent blockade had to close the place down; if only for a moment, to be worthwhile. We succeeded. Close to one hundred people were arrested at gate nine. When our bus [paddy wagon) began to move out, the blockade continued. The bus drove all the way around the park in search of an

unblocked gate. The cheers of those on the bus grew louder and louder with each gate we approached that was blockaded or locked by non-violent resisters. Finally protesters were dragged from an entrance wher,e they turned their bodies around to prevent our arrests. In jail, the joy lasted a few hours as the women sent remnant scraps of wool from one cell to another for contact. A disorientated woman, jailed for a different reason, screamed for us to shut up until finally she belted out “I’ve been working on the 2’ and a chorus of old folk songs broke through the cell block. Reality sunk in when the police doused the woman with water several times instead of taking away her matches. I saw her again the next day. They were moving her somewhere else, and she walked by my cell wearing a football helmet and face mask, and some type of skimpy padded body mitt. Through most of what followed I felt disorientated and assaulted. With a migraine, the smoke, lack of food and frequent transporting left me pretty confused and introverted. I watched the other women change from spirited to angry to desperate, but we always pledged to support and not judge those who signed the conditions (stating they would be released if they promised not to return to Lansdowne Park). Everyone had a different limit. When booked again at the “Adult” Detention Centre, the police attempted any way to dehumanize people. A policewoman even tried to take my picture when I had all of my clothes off and the “mug shot” turned out to be a full body shot of me barely covering up with a folded towel and folded gown. The policemen looked at the picture and- tried to take%down information that most people don’t realize they don’t have to answer. I later learned there were no women around when the men were strip searched, showered and processed. However during this processing, men where there to unnerve us: constantly walking up to the open door, where we were being strip searched and showering, and watching while we were searched while clothed, and so on. Prison instantly became understood as a huge bureaucracy where rules were enforced and created arbitrarily. Thirty four people refused to sign the condition, and having overloaded the system, we were released without conditions. That evening we discussed marching back to the site and we had enough enthusiasm to co-ordinate phone-calling, grocery shopping, and to paint new banners until ~:OO in the morning, Once out the shock of the conspired reality in contrast to the police and the prison system made it impossible to feel involved on campus, at a dance or whatever followed our departure from Ottawa. Our objections to ARMX have bedome secondary in comparison to what we learned about prison. Confiding the experience to a close friend who coincidentally is studying to be a nurse for the military summarized several reactions from non-protestors. She felt the military had played many mind games on her during basic training, and therefore others deserved the same. Women we have learned can fully work within the system of domination and the real problem has nothing to do with anatomy. The judge stated that we were supposed to accept the suffering and consequences of our actions. Yet to accept the totally unacceptable treatment of any human being like an object SO she or he may then get along in the “outside world” seems impossible. All the intentions, have backfired, including making us afraid to ever again join in civil disobedience. We cannot accept the inhumane treatment of prisoners as something we must agree to suffer as well for the cause of peace. In the prisons of North America there are so many “Jane Does” that the police cannot figure out whose case is whose. Therefore they miss their court hearings and remain in jail year after year. Most cases are drug related,‘but the “correction” and “justice” revenge, and worthlessness instead of system teach violence, rehabilitation. If civil disobedience activists do not advocate for these people the prison system will continue to fail. If anything, 1 am more committed to expression and action against the poverty and violence used to women. . control

in defense of law

Greenspan on trial by Derek Hrynyshyn Imprint staff

“A criminal lawyercan defend a guilty client without defending a crime,” says Eddie Greenspan. In a keynote address to a gathering of alumni in the Theatre of the Arts on June 3, Canada’s most famous criminal lawyer also said that “the law has to have a sense of humour” to deal with some of the quirks of life. Greenspan began his talk with a few excerpts from court transcripts showing that the law can exhibit a sense of humour. One example was an acquittal handed down by a judge to a man charged with possession of marijuana. The defendant was clearly guilty, but the judge acquitted him because he was unhappy because he had to consistently work on Fridays, when other judges got some Fridays off. The bulk of Greenspan’s speech was devote-d to answering a frequently asked question: “How can a lawyer defend a guilty man ?” His stock reply is that everyone is entitled to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, and all people must be given the right to counsel before a trial. Greenspan declared a lawyer who refused to defend a guilty client would be like a doctor who refused to treat a patient with AIDS. The right to counsel,and the presumption of innocence are fundamental to our justice system, and without them, anyone charged with an offence would be helpless. “No one should have to‘stand alone against the state’,” he said, tid everyone needs a cham ion to defend them, no matter R ow guilty they may seem or bob un-

Increase by Doug Jamieson Imprint staff The Federation of Students’ fee increase from $18.50 to $19,20 per term for the 1989-90 academic year was approved at the June 6 Board of Governors meeting. The 70 cent increase had been approved earlier at the Feds’ March 28 Annual General Meeting. As well, the Feds received final approval to begin-construction of the proposed addition to Federation Hall. This is to pro-

orthodox their views. The presumption of innocence is a right that guarantees the dignity of the individual over the interests of the state, The individual needs to be protected, he said, through rights to counsel, to a trial by jury, and due process. According to Greenspari, there are many examples from legal history of people who have been executed and later pardoned for crimes they did not commit. Having good defence lawyers helps to prevent this kind of injustice. To emphasize the importance of defence lawyers, he recounted the story of one of his cases. He was defending a client charged with murder, with all evidence indicating his client’s guilt. Greenspan was eventually able to prove the man’s innocence despite the client’s lying and changing his story, after a small piece of evidence led to the truth, Greenspan uses this story to illustrate that the defence counsel’s job is not to pass moral judgments, but to ensure that a conviction ‘is not obtained illegally. “Guilty” is a legal term, and not a moral one, he stated. In a question and answer session’, Greenspan was asked how he felt about p,olice and the degree of freedom they are given to carry out investigations, He replied the “police in Ontario have more power than Hydra.” According to Greenspati, “law abiding citizens have no concept of rights and what they mean” until they have been charged by the police. He is amused when police officers get charged, since they often feel that the legal system is weighted against them after they have-been charged.

But if you do frequent these establishments, consider the wisdom of that old Latin warning “Caveat Emptor: Let the Buyer Beware.:’ Delicious it may be, but do YOU know the story of how that hamburger was grown in Central America and made its way to your local chain restaurant? Too much fast food harms our bodies, and the excessive packaging fills our garbage dumps. However, my main concern is the beef patty found inside the Styrofoam, cardboard or paper wrappings. Let’s consider where, and at what costs, the beef patty we eat is produced. Since the 1950s over two-thirds of the rairiforest area in Central America has been cleared to produce cheap beef for the North American and European pet food and fast food market. It seems to make perfect economic sense to import beef from Central America when it costs only- US $25 to raise a head of cattle in Costa Rica compared to US $95 in Montana. It costs us less to buy a hamburger, and these poor Third World countries gef some badly needed money. I Beef is now one of the top five agricultural exports from Central America, But there are problems. While beef production for export has increased over the years, Central Americans are eating less beef. With more land in Central Ame’rica being used for ranching, there remains less land for the poor to plant crops of corn, beans, rice and maniac to feed themselves, or grow even small quantities of cash crops such as coffee and bananas. Peasant farmers are often forced off their land and migrate to the shanty towns, or they clear more of the rainforest and cultivate some crops for a few years. Then the ranchers move in, often aided by their hired assassins, and the peasants move off the land once again, or risk being murdered. Ironically, peasant efficient producers forest is consumed burger produced.

ot clearing rainiorests for Consequences ranching and other forms of “development” are coming home to roost. With the destruction of the rainforests of the ‘world will come the permanent loss of half the earth’s plant species. From these endangered plants come chemicals we use in medicine to control high blood pressure, Hodgkin’s disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and some cancers. Another serious.problem we face is the greenhouse effect. Simply put, the earth is heating up because we have put too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere through burning down so much of the rainforest, driving our cars, and using too much fossil fuel. This carbon dioxide prevents much of the sun’s heat from leaving the earth’s surface or immediate atmosphere. The heating of fhe earth (global temperatures are predicted to rise by 4 to 15 degrees F. in half a century) will cause polar ice to :melt, sea levels to rise, changes: in precipitation patterns, farm belts to become semi-desserts, and the migration of millions of people to more productive, cooler and wetter areas. The situation is hopeless only if we ignore it. So what must we do? We ca’n ask staff members of fast food outlets to inform their head offices that they will lose our business if they use beef from Latin America in our burgers. We must reverse the rate of worldwide defbrestation. Rainforests are truly the world’s major lungs. We must encourage Third World countries to preserve their rainforests, and to replant trees for those which are selectively cut down. This may mean supporting the forgiving of Third World debts of governments willing to preserve rainforests and replant trees. But we also need to plant trees locally. The Region of Waterloo can plant more trees in parks, greenbelts and along major roads. Homeowners and community groups can join in this task of slowing down the global warming trend by planting trees. Just as we found creative ways to address the energy crisis in the 1970s (and saved money as well], we must find solutions individually, and collectively, to depleting our forested areas. For more information consult the reference library at the Waterloo Public Interest Resharch Group located in the General Services Complex (the building with the smokestack).

p-rez retires

by Michael Salovaara Imprint staff Father Norm Choate of St, Jerome’s College retires this month after ten years as president of the college. He began his career at St. Jerome’s in the sixties as a lectureI’, .then took on the position of chaplain for five years before becoming president. Over the years he has noticed the maturing of the cotiege and the university. With the maturing of the faculty and staff comes a strong scholarship tradition. The one asp&ct of this university’s maturity that pleases Father Norm the most is seeing second ‘generation students coming to study.

Some of his concerns about the university deal with an “elitist trend” on campus. This trend is encouraged by the difficulty of low-income students to afford higher education. With the spending cuts, he feels the classes are becoming too large, faculty too exhausted, and entrance requirements too strict to make higher educatjon accessible to all whd desir4 it, In spite of his neg&ve prognosis, he still has confidence in the quality of education at the University of Waterloo. Father Choate plans to take an extended holiday in Europe, inclyding a refresher course at the Vatican.

tions in addition to regular hirings will be enough is arguable. During the next decade alone that 2, before the exodus really starts - 154 faculty members are expected to retire, UW’s Operations Analysis says. Currently, nearly 60 per cent of UW’s professoriate is over 45 years of age. The.abolition of mandatory retirement could possibly distribute the retirements more evenly. “If mandatory retirement is abolished, then the universities won’t be faced with a sudden huge need to hire a lot of new people,” says’ Professor Len Cuelke, president of the Faculty Association. The result would be a better age distributiori, which might prevent a repetition of the faculty shortage - and the wage crunch that precedes it - from recurring. Aside from the Excellence Fund, the university administration appears to have done little so far in anticipation of the staffing shortage. The issue of whether mandatqry retirement constitutes age discrimination is currently before the Supreme Court of Canada. The court should rule on the case this fall.

ing foreign student enrolment at colleges and universities mot ivated the decision. According to OFS fieldworker Barney Savage, t’he decline has been mainly due to these high fees. 1989 refugee claimants are not being offered the same deal as the ministry expects the refugee processing system will speed up, so that claimants will gain immigrant status sooner. The danger of bogus refugees abusing such a benefit has been overrated, according to Savage. He said the financial drain on the government resulting from the policy is a myth. Studies have shown that international students are a significant source of revenue. For that reasori, the OFS would like to see an eventual elimination of the differential fees for all foreign students.

The Ministry of Colleges and Universities annouccement exempting students who are refugee claimants from paying differential fees normally paid by foreign students has met with applause from the Ontario Federation of Students. In a press release’, OFS chair Shelley Potter called the announcement “an important advance in making Ontario a full partner in international education.” The decision will allow those who claimed refugee status before January T, 1989 to attend post-secondary institutions in Ontario after paying normal tuition’, instead of the foreign student fees, which are normally , around $3700 per year: Decreas-

Confidentiality

of AIDS testing

DEAR SEXPERI’: I have had sex with someone who might have AIDS. I want to have a test done but I’m worried that someone will find out about the test later (even if I don’t have AIDS). ANSWER: AIDS testing is generally done in a confidential manner but there are several considerations that you should be aware of. A test for AIDS consists of taking a blood sample and checking it for antibodies to the HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus - the virus that causes AIDS). This test can be done by doctors (including those at Health Services on campus) or by public health facilities such as the Waterloo Regional Health Unit, When a test is done by a doctor, the fact that you have had the test will be on your medical record [whether the result is negative or positive]. The only way that your medical record can be obtained by others is with your consent. Groups that~often ask to see your record are insurance companies or prospective employers. If you allow those companies to have access to your medical record it is very likely that you would be denied insurance or employment. On the other hand, the same thing might happen if you don’t let the companies see your record. Given this situation, it might be a good idea to keep an HIV test off your medical record. One possible way of preventing others from knowing that you had an HIV test would be to have the test done by a doctor who you did not usually go to. When you give consent for the medical records of your regular doctor to be released, the HIV information would not be on that record. A better method of ensuring your confidentiality would be to get the test done at the Waterloo Regional Health Unit. You can use a name other than your own when you have the test done. No checks are made on the accuracy of the name you provide and, because there is no charge for the test, there is no-need to provide an OHIP number, If you use a different name there is no chance that the test information would be obtained when authorized checks were done, No appointments are necessary for the Health Unit, Testing is done between 4 and fi pm on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and they are located at 850 King Street West in Kitchener [near the Kitchener-Waterloe Hospital], Tests for other sexually transmitted diseases can also be obtained during those hours. Anyone having an HIV test will also receive counselling before and after the test. The phone number for the Health Unit is 7447357 if you have any further questions. Regardless of where an HIV test is done, care is taken during the testing process to prevent others from knowing your identity, Blood samples are given a code number when they are sent to the lab, so the lab never sees your name. You should also be aware that it takes between six months and three years before the virus can be detected, Because of this, HIV tests will not be done until at least six months after you might have been exposed to the virus. Also, it could be as long as three years before you can be sure that you do not have AIDS. We cannot emphasize enough how important it is to take precautions when having intercourse with anyone who might have come in contact with HIV. Some condoms (i.e. Ramses Extra, Sheik Elite) and contraceptive foams (i.e. Delfen) contain Nonoxyno.l-9 that provides protection from sexually transmitted diseases as well as pregnancy. Any inconvenience in using these products is insignificant when compared to the consequences of getting AIDS. More information [or referrals or support) regarding AIDS can be obtained from ACCKWA (AIDS Committee of Cambridge’, Kitchener/Waterloo and Area]. They have a hotline (741-8300) available from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 7 to 11 p.m. Monday to Friday. YOU can also visit them at 886 Queen’s Blvd:, Kitchener.

There’s good news for people who want to live forever: life expectancies in Canada are increasing steadily. A recent report prepared by UW’s Institute for Risk Research says people alive now can expect to live three years longer than those who were alive eight years ago. Increased health risks due to environmental problems appear to be less important than increases in life spans, The report, entitled A Studylbf Mortality in Canadian Cit ieS, was originaNy intended as a comparison of life expectancies n in Toronto and Vancouvef, said the institute’s associate directof, Dr. John Shortreed. The institute expected to investigate potentially higher cancer rates in Toronto due to the pollution in Lake Ontario. But after seeing some of the statistics, Dr. E. Siddall, the report’s author, decided to investigate the changes in life expectancies instead. He found life expectancies were increasing in all parts of the country, including Calgary, Edmonton‘, Vancouver and Montreal. But Toronto residents can expect to live ldngest on the average, and Montreal residents the shortest. -*Another significant finding was the decreasing rate of deaths from accidents. Shortreed said he could not explain I Thy Vancouver had a much higher rate of accidental deaths, but the explanation might be something as difficult to track as the fact that Vancouver has a milder climate. Such a climate . I would tend to increase the of physical activity the : population engages iti, and thus increase the risk of accidents. The study did not draw any conclusions about the environmerit and health risks, Shortreed said, since the differences in I death rates between different cities was not as significant -as the overall decrease in the death L Id e.

“Tin soldiers, Nixon’s Four dead in Ohio...” Neil Young, “Ohio” 2970

It is hard for us in North America to understand what has happened, and what is continuing to happea, in China. We can try to put it into the context of our own history and culture - President Bush compared the student movement to that of Martin Luther King Jr. - but it does not really fit, We can compare it to the killing by the U.S. Nation&l Guard of four Kent State students that were taking part in a demonstration against the Vietnam War as immortalized by Neil Young in the song Ohio - but both the size I and the complexity of the situation in China dwarf the Kent State tragedy. Student leaders Abbie Hoffman and the Chicago Seven tried to influence the outcome of the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago by leading a demonstration-turnedriot, but at least they were given a fair trial (and were acquitted). In China, a country that had appeared to be moving towards progressive and peaceful change, the government has led themselves into a long, dark tunnel in which the only light comes from that of an approaching train. I By now, of course, most have heard that the Chinese government ordered the troops into Tiananmen Square to clear out the student demonstrators’, and, in doing so, they killed anywhere between 300 and 3,000 people - one report actually used the phrase, “The People’s Liberation Army was sent into Beijing to liberate the city from the people”

bang, who was fired &hen he had refused to quell an earlier student uprising ifi another part of the country. He was popular amongst the students and his death provided an issue on which they could unite. At the beginning, the demonstration was not intended to last very long - government inaction (or improper action) prolonged it. The students had gathered primarily to mourn, yet they soon turned their demonstration into a more general call for reform, drawing up a list of demands and starting a hunger: strike. In a harshly worded editorial, the government solidly condemned the demonstration. By North American standards, the students’ demands appeared almost silly. The students did not include a big demand like the . country’s withdrawal from a fsreign war; instead, they asked their government to apologize for the harsh editorial, to broadcast a live debate with student leaders and to corruption (there ,E - end government was’ also a possible dtimand for a free student press].

Since we, of the democratic world, view the-Chinese student.s’ demands as justifiably fair, our horror is compounded with our strong indignation at the events of the weekend of June 5. We often take our constitutional right. to oppose government for granted. Did the students really die Ldemanding a television debate? Yes and no. By the time of the massacre the demonstration had grown to include many other issues and personalities. In the middle of May, the \ demonstrations began to draw a wider base and a wider cause. The Globe and Mail reported on May 18, “a week ago,- the marchers were mostly self-styled intellectuals and. students. Yesterday, they included old and young alike, Communist Party officials, Foreign Ministry staffers, steel wortierg, bank tellers, restaurant employees, welders and high school students.” This act was democracy is its purest form: people speaking out against a corrupt system. Indeed, it may be as Globe and Mail reporter Michael Frolic wrote on May 27, “The lesson of Beijing, 1989, may be

that the real culture revolutioti is finally underway. In 1966, young people were mobilized to attack bu’reaucrats who nq longer served the masses. This time the masses have done this on their own, using a mixture of Chinese and Western methods and values. Wearing Mao but>tong, they parade around with a model of the Statue of Liberty and make Churchillian V for Victory signs.”

29, the demonstrators their leaders fascists the ideological opposite from what they claim to be - yet in the People’s Republic what is not for the people could, perhaps, be described as fascist. At the heart of the situation in China, and at the heart of the weeks of confusion before the massacre, is the political maneuvering of the were

’ country’s top leaders. Evidently, there was far more going on in China in the last month than a student and/or workers groundswell movement. The people were r’eacting to a corrupt government that, even as ‘the movement grew, was . fixing itself for a fight. The Globe and Mail reported on May 19 that, “Breakneck economic growth over the past decade has created enormous possibilities for ,malfeasance , and laid to rest the Communist revolutionary ideal of a simple, selfless existence. “Nostalgia for such an idea] was reflected yesterday in the posters of former leaders Mao Tse-tung and Chm Enlai that appeared in the marching crowd. ‘At least Chairman Mao was honest,’ a worker from Hubei province said as he car. ried .a life-sized poster of Mao. !He even sent his son to the Korean War, Nowadays, the leaders send their sons to America.“’ The conflict in the government before the massacre consisted of a struggle between moderates and conservatives. The moderates, represented by Communist Party

Chief Zhao Ziyang, 69, supported the demands of the students, at least in principle, if not in practice; after all, what government is going to admit that it is corrupt? The conservatives, represented by the Chairman of the Central Military and China’s ultimate ruler Deng Xiaoping, 84, and Premier Li Peng, 60, refused student demands outright to the point of branding them, “counter-revolutionaries,” a term which more appropriately applies to themselves. On May 18, both Zhao and Li visited the students in Tiananmen Square. The report in the KitchenerWaterloo Record states Li advised the students to go back to school, while Zhao stayed longer with the students encouraging them steps would be taken to meet their demands. Zhao gave the students hope, yet only the next day his future became uncertain as he was either fired or resigned rather than endorse a crackdown on students. His status within the government

was ambiguous for almost a full week after this. report - he was thought to be either removed from his position or winning the power struggle behind the scenes. Ultimately, Zhao was accused, along with three others, (Propaganda Chief Hu Qili, Vice-Premier Tian Jiyun and Defence Minister Qin Jiwei), of “forming an antiparty clique,’ and put under house arrest.

Political power grows out of the end of a gun The wild-card in the .power struggle was the head of .the National People’s Congress Wan LI, 73, who was visiting North America during most of the time of unrest. He made a speech in Toronto in favour of a peaceful solution to the problem, and was widely believed to have been a supporter of Zhao Ziyang. Yet, ‘once he returned to China around May 24, cutting short his visit to the United States due to “medical reasons,” [although the speculation that he returned because of the political unrest in China is probably closer to the truth], he was reported to be in hospital and never heard of again, The hard-liners had won. On May 27, the Globe and Mail ran an excellent summary by China correspondent Jan Wong of the rise and meaning of the student protest in Chinal Wong stated, “Today, the. leaders are operating as they always have, issuing directives and orders from behind the vermilion walls. Six days of martial law passed before the first Chinese leader emerged in public. Premier Li Peng appeared blandly confident, almost patronizing, even though his troops had been unable to enter the city. Had the leaders been more in touch with the people, none of this might have happened. “At the start, the students simply wanted to join the official mourning for Hti Yaobang. The government ignored them . . . “Ordinary citizens began to join in, As more than one million people marched through Beijing, the students asked for a dialogue with their leaders. The government again ignored them. “Then about 3,000 students staged a week-long hunger strike. That simple act galvanized a nation l

“At each step of the way, the Chinese government might have defused the situation by giving in a little. But this government has never before dealt with a popular movement and is unused to compromise. Authorities refused to budge; the demonstrators escalated their demands. “The students amazed the world with their discipline. Ironically, the government trained them that way. They learned to march in formation and shout slogans at school. Their entire education prepared them to obey orders . .

the same media proclaimed a, ‘glorious. victory,” in reference the the military suppression of the demon-, stration. On a numberof occasions ’ the arqny -and theA-people met in the streets, often resulting in the troops’ .retreat to positions in the suburbs. On May 22, the Globe and Mail reported that, “Using sheer numbers, ihe people immobilized 12 trucks of soldiers . . . Have a cigarette,’ a young man said, hoisting himself on to the wheel of a truck, The soldiers, who appeared to be in their late teens, politely refused. The crowd urged them to take one. Finally, two soldiers lit up. The crowd cheered. An old woman wearing an apron came by to collect some empty bowls and mugs. Someone lifted a case of soft drinks on to the truck. You see, the people give them food and drink,’ a woman in the crowd said. They’ve been sitting here all day. The government hasn’t given them anything.“’ In another incident, on the day before the army moved in to bloodily clear Tiananmen Square, the effectiveness of the government’s’ media blackout and propaganda campaign became clear: “Many people tried to persuade the soldiers that the students were good. We’re against corruption, said one man. You don’t like privilege and nepotism, either, I’m sure.’ Most of the soldiers remained impassive. But some began chanting with the crowd. One soldier, wearing a radio kit, said he was from an army in Hebel, the province surrounding Beijing. This is the first time we’ve got to Beijing,’ he said. He had been sleeping on the floor for two weeks in Tongxian, a county just 10 km east of Beijing. In that time, he said, he had been kept in the dark about the news. Why had he come to the city? Speaking so softly that people had to strain to hear, he said that the soldiers had been told to #restore order. A worker in ti Mao suit, who appeared to be in his 50s, bent down and spat in that universal gesture of contempt, Does the city look in turmoil to you ?’ The soldier didn’t respond.” The next day the army sent tanks into Tiananmen Square. There is still a great deal of confusion sur-. rounding how the events surrounding the massacre in Tiananmen

&are develoned. This confusion s is now largely centered around . what actually haIzpened on tbe weeEend of June-5 and the. possibilities of civil war, , . The Chinese army is divided into approximately 20 smaller armies.

If true, the indiscriminate slaughter would explain the huge number of troops surrounding Beijing and the persistent rumors of clashes between different armies.” Now that the demonstrations in

Thi s P ositio n was repeated as late as May 27, when the Globe and Mail quoted ti soldier from the 38th army as saying,’ “We won’t use violence. We’re here to restore order, not suppress the students.” Although the tragic events that have taken place since that statement greatly overshadow any previous army statement, there is evidence to suggest that particular soldier, from, that particular army unit, firmly believed what he was saying. The Globe and Mail reported on June 8, “Chinese witnesses to the Tiananmen Square massacre said members of the 27th (army) stood behind other soldiers,

China have been crushed, #and the call for democracy silenced, if only, for a little while, we are left to ponder its impact. The Toronto Star editorial of June 6 would have us believe, “the world was witness to a massacre that may well go down in history as the last gasp of a dying regime bereft of any moral authority to govern.” The June 8 editorial in the Globe and Mail says we were, “duped by our own romanticism,” about the real nature of China, which has finally shown its face in this gredt tragedy. The Globe further warns us that, “as we contemplate our self-deception about Chin&, it is instructive to examine the reaction of the West’s new darling to the slaughter in the square. Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev has no comment to make about the crimes against the flower of China’s youth. In Mr. Gorbachev’s view this is an internal matter for the Chinese Communist Party to resolve.” Still, if one can, after the initial shock and disgust, conceptualize the positive aspects of these events in China, it is that perhaps the people of China have been made more aware of their place in the mind of the Party, and that the spirit of the movement remains strong. On May 24, the Globe and Mail reported that the students were resolved to their cause. The paper quoted one of the student leaders in Tiananmen Square as she repeated a quote made by Mao Tse-tung, “Chairman Mao said, ‘A single spark, can start a prairie fire,’ ‘* Ms. Huang said. “If we fail this time, we will save a spark for next time.”

Strange new disease detected

Campers, by Cindy Long Imprint staff Going camping this summer? Hiking? If mosquitoes, black flies and beaver fever haven’t discouraged you yet, read on. Lyme disease, a tick-borne bacterial disease‘, has U.S. hikers tucking their trousers in their socks and inspecting each other for ‘*moving freckles”, Since the states’ most heavily afflicted area borders on Canadzi, it’s worth it to at least know the symptoms. Lyme first appears as a skin rash in 85 per cent of cases three days to a few weeks after the bite. The rash is often large, with a two-toned appearance, Flulike symptoms often follow, then nervous system and heart problemd, and lastly arthritic joini pain. Symptoms can appear over a period of months to years after the tick bite in untreated victims, Lyme is treated and cured most effectively with antibiotics when diagnosed early. The infection is most concentrated in areas with a large deer population. The Ixodes dammini tick inhabits tall grasslands and wooded. areas between hosts. According to an article in Health

hikers beware News, “The likelihood of people becoming .infected is greatest when the feet and legs come in contact with long grass or shrubs and pick up hungry ticks questing for food.” Tucking pant legs into socks can minimize the risk of exposure. Ai article in Newsweek recommended wearing an insect repellent containing DEET. Ninety per cent of al’1 cases occur from May to September when the nymphal ticks are active and most likely to bite humans. The statistics for Canada are encouraging at first glance. By June of 1988, only 13 cases had been confirmed, six in Ontario, one in Quebec and the remained acquired outside the country. Lyme became a provincially reportable disease in October of 1988, and six more cases have since been confirmed in Ontarid, particularly the areas of Parry Sound, Stratford and north of Kenora. However, in ihe United States, T,500 to 3,000 new cases are reported annually with the numbers doubling each year. Since Lyme resembles the flu i in its early stages, it is suspected I that it is often misdiagnosed. Pregnant women are particu-

larly advised to avoid tick-infested areas since the disease may infect the fetus. What can you do to avoid this nasty nuisance? Health News advises the following: -Find out whether an area you plan to visit is known to harbour Ixodes ticks. (Apparently Long Point, Ontario is known as a “hot spot”.) -Inspect your skin daily for ticks if in an infested area. -Immediately remove any ticks found using tweezers, grasping the tick close the head and mouth parts. Try not to squash the tick. -Disinfect the area with soap and water or alcohol. Other precautions are wellknown -to experienced hikers. Keep to the centre of trails, wear protective clothing, insect repellent and light-coloured clothing on which a tick might show up. If you suspect you have contracted Lyme disease, a bloodtest for the antibodies to the causative agent helps to confirm it. Diseases sometimes confused with Lyme include mononucleosis, rheumatic fevep, Bell’s Palsy and multiple sclerosis. The antibodies should be present three to six weeks after the tick bite.

by Doug Jamieson Imprint staff The Board’ of Governors, on Tuesday, June 6, unanimously approved the 1989-90 operating btidget - one that carries an estimated deficit of $420,000 on total estimated operating expenses of nearly $150 million. This deficit will reduce the estimated fund surplus at April 30, 1989 of $653,000 to approximately $233,000. Board chairman J. Trevor Eytoti, commenting that this is “not a happy budget,” encouraged the University to continue to seek private sector support in order to meet rising costs. UW Ijresident Doug Wright, supportivb of the Senate Fin rice Com7 /budget’, mittee’s . prbpos’ed remarked that the University’s “end of year results are often better than what was estimated at the beginning of the year.” However, one Board member pointed out the Management Board had recently decided not to share funds from the enrolment accessibility envelope with the faculties as previously agreed. Instead of their twothirds share, the faculties have only received about 58 per cent, This difference amounts to approximately $227,000: an amount which, it was decided, will be considered by the Senate Finance Committee in light of future revenues. ’ Also discussed was the proposed sale of land on the North Campus to Union Gas. The Board approved the sale in principle, but advised negotiation of the $30,000 per acre sale price. Opposing the sale were Federation president Dave Readman and arts councillor Tim Jacksoti, whose own motion of deferral was defeated. They felt the University should not be selling land, and suggested that Union Gas look elsewhere. The rest of the Board, howevef, disagreed, since Union Gas would be moving a high pressure system from UW’s Central Services building, and the-land in question was a small (0.4 acres] parcel-adjacent to land recently sold to Waterloo North Hydro.

Snukal’s masterwork,

TalkingBy

Washina votir mouth out with love by James

Calnan

Just because you don’t talk dirty doesn’t mean that you’re not’ just another guy looking to get laid! Talking Dirty, by Canadian playwright Sherman Snukal, the premiere production by the Twin Cities Theatre Company, opened this week , in Studio Room 180 in Hagey Hall. A play about the emotional, as opposed to physical risks of-sexual promiscuity, Talking Dirty examines the emotional and sexual conflicts that revolve around the protagonist Mike, a philosophy prof at the University of Toronto - a man who is sometimes a magnetic Don Juan and sometimes a selfish and irresponsible Peter Pan. Entering into this are the people who start the wheel of Mike’s fortune spinning: his recently almost-ex girlfriend Beth, with whom he has an “arrangement”; ’ his best friend Dave‘, a horny yet sexually backward married lawyer from B,C,; his colleague Karen‘, a neurotic and insecure English professor who has the hots for him; and Jaqul, a wouldbe painter and all-round artistic flake. All of them are in conflict somehow with Mike; all of them have something to gain or lose from him. Michael Albert [as Mike) does a good job with a demanding part - his character is the lynchpin for all of the action. He has the weariness of both the young, burning out academic and the sexual powerhouse that is approaching thirtysomething and realizir+g his values are coming into conflict with his needs.

Although sometimes distant from action for which he is the focus, his confrontation scene with Beth [Carissa Cameron) in the second part of the play is certainly explosive. Carissa Cameron’s Beth is both vulnerable and strong, with a good deal of need thrown in. This is quite a feat, since Snukal has given her very little in the way of real definition’, preferring to dra,w more completely the caricatures of the supporting cast.

Marvin I$inz [as Dave] made me think QW@ t&*&aracteraf Dan Fielding would be like as played by Woody Allen in Jim Belushi’s body. His Dave is snide, pawing, yet fundamentally insecure - he brags about the price of his clothes; his armour against the world. He’s one of the guys, another Joe who thinks from the groin, yet without the confidence necessary to act,ually score. A tight and powerful performance.

Uave’s scen&, with Karen IArexan&sMart*En) in the third patit of the play is perhaps the most delicious. The,y snoozle shamelessly while discvssing a sexual fantasy invblving leather thongs and orange blossom. The chemistry between Hinz and Martin is spright and effervescent. Much of this is the work of Alexandra Mart&, whose Karen never falls into the trap of being two-dimensional - you can see the basis for her neuro-

sis; it has substance. However, the most substantive performance is that of Anne Hoselton as Jaqui Lemieux’, “the space-cadet frlom Sudbury.” Direct and economical yet always vapid, Hoselton is a joy to watch on stage, as much for her performance as for the lovingly constructed character Snukal wrote. She is a blabbering whirlwind, a social butterfIy, comic yet real in the hurt and neurosis that she also fleels. Something should also be said for set and lighting desigti, since in this Talking Dirty exceeded my expectatio:ns for so small a space as HH 180. Cathi Rainville’s angular set draws the eye into the space, making the audience seem as) voyeurs into the lives of the characters. It gives the impression that you are actually sitting in the living room of a Young Urban Professional: it has all the uncluttered and lived-in sparseness of that: class, Motley’s lighting design further contributes to the impression of actually being in a Toronto apartment. I enjoyed the coffee house atmosphere they had created in HHl80, and thle admission price of $3 was a welcome low price for a poor student. Although the energy level of the actors was so.metimes too low for the situation and sometimes too intense for t’he smallness of the space in which they were performing, Ta’Jking Dirty was an enjoyable evening of theatre and a welcome escape from the blockbuster hype of the movies. You can catch the show at 8:UO p.m:, June 14 through 17 and 23, 24 in Hagey Hall Room 180.

Bon Jovi kicks serious butt! by Tania Spencer Imprint staff “I don’t consider myself a sex symbol,” says Jon BonJovi. “I’m just a singer in a rock and roll band.“Yeah right, Jon. Just a singer in the band that happens to be the hottest and most envied band on the continent. But how much of their phenomenal Success is based on actual talent and how much is based on hype? The press have played a major role in creating the larger than life image, but BonJovi’s June 2 performance at the CNE Grandstand was less than phenomenal. AIthough they were great at playing to the crowd, fostering an atmosphere that would win over the fussiest of critics, they somehow lacked that certain e&e that makes for a truly great concert. It seemed a$ if they were playing for cheap applause, rather than realty trying to be the great band that they’re capable of being. They did expend a tot of energy, but it seemed somehow empty - lots of noise, signifying little: For a supposedly hard rot k band they came across as being a little too radio friendly and commercial. The audience didn’t seem to mind though, and they didn’t seem to noticethe toll the seven odd months on the road have taken on Jon’s voice. “They were amazing,” one fan told me, “amazing.” What’s amazing however, is how the attention hasn’t affected Jon. I’ve heard a tot of stories about his attitude, but when I ran into him at Rock and Roll Heaven later that night, he was very quiet and down to earth. “I’m not a big fan of playing the star,” he said, “I’ve been shown all that play rock star stuff and it’s not just a joke - it’s a bad joke.” Well with an attitude like that, how can you fail to love the guy?

The Jight and darkness war by John Hymers Imprint staff Listen! There is something out there, lurking, listening, watching: recording your every movement and gauging your responses’, waiting for the right time, And when the right time comes, it will be too late for you to react, or even to notice. You will be history. Kaput. Enveloped in darkness, Let me escort you back to Phil’s Grandon’s Place, Wednesday evening, the-seventh of June. In fourteen days, the darkness shall grow longer and the light shorter. But until then, daylight continues its useless, albeit cyclical, lengthening. June seven. Several bottles of Labatts 50 accumulate on my table as a friend and I await the beginning of the evening’s festivities. We need this minor diversion - this ceremony - to help us forget the darkness. We were about to see some bands play; including a band whose lead singer wore a bat, a creature of the nighf, of the darkness. 1 guess it was ar;und 1O:OO p.m. when the drama began. A ..soundman turned off the club’s tuned, and the first band seized their instruments. Gordy Gordo and the G Men. Enough to make one forget about the solstice. As they are a local band, quite a few

of our fellow worshiDers we-re familiar with ‘em. I hasn’t, but my friend had a friend who . . , Their set was peppered with humour and excellent musicianship. I guess the phrase goes, “these guys know how to play.” Despite his light banter+, the,lead singer must have realized the somber mood of the evening; he knew we would not escape that night without a sacrifice of some traditional nature: something furry and small. He had this guitar, you see, which was covered in pink ftir. Coyly masking original tunes like Sweet Angel Honey Baby with references to the Evil One (“we can go to the movies and

Who will win?

Futility I worship Satan”)‘, Cordy Gordo set the correct mood. This wasn’t a concert; this was a pact to ensure that the sun would continue to shine, even after June 21. Their treatments of Should I Stay Or Sh,ouId I Go and Summertime Blues were mutated enough to pass for some sort of sa&ifice. Words were left out (strategically] and both were. played at speeds not in-tended by the writers. I know that somewhere, somebody was>_ pleased. I

The Princess Cinema plays host to a hilarious escapade from Spain’s well loved director, Pedro Almodovar tonight, continuing until next Wedhesday Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. Almodovar has a strong personal philosophy: “This is what life is about - to be completely unrepentant.” In an increasingly prudish decade, he hoists the banner of “absolute freedom for the human being, absolute autonomy”. After several films skewering every sacred cow in modern Spain from nuns to matadors and fully celebrating his own gay sexuality, Almodovar now turns to light-hearted optimism in the absurdities of relationships. From the opening credjts done in cut out magazine models, Women on- the Verge leads us through a dreamy world-of delightfully alive and eccentric characters in a whirl of action and “outrageous” colour. Almodovar looks at women in situations of abandonment with comic irony. The result is a refreshing send up on every sappy soap opera and melodrama ever regurgitated in the category of “man leaves women” genre. In the opening scene, Pep& an actress who provides voiceovers in a dubbing studio, gets a niessage on her answering machine from Ivati, her lovef, asking her to pack his things, he’s leaving her:For the next two days she tries to get in touch with him, Her efforts are constantly thwarted by manic little art deco phones in an amazing variety of shapes and sizes. These two themes, the diffic’ulty of relatiorishipd, and the alienation technology brings to life, are inseparable. I can’t recall when I last saw so many situations combining violence and telephones. Telephones and answering , r: ?A P r: ;I : .‘ : “c a .

“Just wait till I get you home!” machines are attacked; taken apart and thrown out windows with a savage devotion - a rite in the ongoing process of liberation. Their crime: they further and indeed facilitate the alienation between people. Only Ivan’, the mysterious and in the end unimpressive protagonist, is able to successfully use them; with them he manipulates and avoid true interaction with others, We enjoy the guiltless world of people capable of spontaneous expression of strong emot*ibns which in the end are “the only motor that gives sense to life.” In her adventures trying to find Ivan’, Pepa meets others who have mixed feelings about him, including a soti, Carlog, she knew nothing about. Carlos’ mother was institutionalized for years after their son was born and Ivan left+ and now she wants revenge. Pepa comes to learn an important lesson. Almodovar explains: “The best antidote for falling out of love consists in discovering new details about your old lover . . . seeing that, deep dowti, he is just a poor, weak guy and a liar to boot, And certainly not anyone worthy of sharing even a minuscule particle of your

future.” By the time Pepa finally catches up to Ivati, he’s no longer worth the trig, so she simply says goodbye. She is free. Everyone involved finds some form of satisfactory conclusion to their various dilemmas, living in happily amoral universes that take quite distinct and’unique forms. “Almodovarian” is a new term in the Spanish vocabulary, meaning “when things get just a little bit too crazy.” While the di-* rector is uncomfortable with this title, it remains a testament to the growing affection the public has for his meteoric rise to fame in the last ten years. Pedro Almodovar’s Women OR the Verge of a Nervous Breakdowti, awarded with the National Board of Review’s “Best Foreign Film,” the Toronto Festival of Festivals’ “Most Popular Film Award,” and the Venice Film Festival’s “Best Screenplay,” is now given my “Best Antidote for the Blues Award.” Remember: It plays at the Princess tonight at 7:00 p.m:, continuing every night until next Wednesday. Take some friends and have ti hoot - watch for a particularly potent mixture of , gazpacho soup.

Golden voice David Bowie is fueling his Tin Machine and producing crossover punk/metal/hard rock; glam kings Guns +n’ Roses are craning ballads, Yeah,. nothing seems quite right, what with the Cowboy Junkies on MuchMusic’s hit parade, and CFNY playing Rick Astley. Does this aI1 seem normal to y.ou? So enter They Might Be Giants, a duo comprised of Messrs John Linnell and Flansburgh.

wonderful disk. They sum up the sixties in one song, Purple Toupee (“Martin X was mad when they outlawed bell _bbttoms”), and talk about hell knows what in Shoehorn With Teeth (“What’s the sense of thinking about the tomb when we are much too busy returning to the womb”). Their lyrics are an integral part of whtit clakes Lincoln so good: TMBG are deft songwriters. More than invoking laughter or a sing-along, their music often invites thle listener to hum the tune. Their songs are without exception short pop ditties with minimal instrumentation.

ml Lincoln is a fine follow-up to their debut album of 1987. It is also my favorite album of this year. Perhaps 1: destroy any objectivity by admitting that, but critics are human too. It is just so dlamn wistful and fun and [gasp] hip. They even made Life magazine a month or so back. My advice to yoti, the reader: get Lincoln now. They may never be famous, but it could change the way you look at pop.

Benefits of unemployment

by Trevor Blair Imprint staff

by Justin Wells This album cover is technologically degenerate: pathetic mediocrity. The music also suffers from this condition‘, and the result is a captivatingly calculated invasion of the mind. Somehow, despite its complete artistic failure, the cover art still manages to convey a.great deal about the nature of the mind altering sounds contained within, Predictable organization thoroughly infiltrated by the chaqtic. The sleeve reminds me of the generic covers used to package multitudes of House releases. And rightly so as Tackhead shares one common ancestor with House: randomly sliding unpredictable voice and sound running across a dance beat. An approach that began with the original industrial band Throbbing Gristle. Tackhead live in the media-mad world of industrial music, at the extreme fringe of House. Ticking Time Bomb generates its predictable mechanical beat from a variety of sampled and non-sampled sources - the traditional Tackhead rhythm section. Across this base rushes everything from urgent authori-

ties and coldly informative news broadcasters, to distorted sounds and industrial noise. All of this brilliantly put together by mixing board wizard Adrian Sherwood. Tackhead is one of those few intelligent outfits which count the mixing board as a valuable instrument, and its mixing man as a key band member. The b-side, Body to Burn is even more interesting than the title track, with its cotipilation of studio accidents and chaotic voices. The one thing I found lacking on Ticking Time Bomb was Gary Clail shouting lyrics through a megaphone, In fact, Gary Clail is lacking entirely from this release. No matter: the lineup remains impressive. Mix man/ producer Sherwood is well known for his work with the likes of Skinny Puppy, Depeche Mode and many more. Doug Wimbish was once voted

function. This is music whit h will defuse your defences with its predictable repetitions, and then slip unexpectedly into your mind with a good selection of audio chaos.

This single starts off on the wrong foot and strives to redeem itself with a nine-plus minute excursion into the most absurd gothic/ disco wasteland I’ve ever heard. A typical goth church organ revs up, the lyric “Pray now, for how long / We’re falling from ecstasy, like changelings , . . “ presents itself, and the song plummets into a bewildering abyss, dragging every preconceived notion about goth along with it. Epic in length, Psychonaut (anexplorer of inner space,) merely sustains itself with a seine shaking bass, descending guitars, bad lyrics;, and a stream of acoustic punctuation marks. More question than exclamation, it comes across something like this - listen: ?!? . .. ?!? . .. ?!?

For a b-side they pluck the most absurd track off their last album The Nephiliti, entitled Celebrotti, re-mix it, and offer it to the archives. It sits well. I can’t call this record a progression for the Nephs, but it isn’t a regression either . . . it’s better than re-hashed Moonchild, but seems as if they’re lost on some path: incoherent though interesting.

was something really worth writing about - but it’s not. Motorcycle, along with I Fed Speed, are the familiar and predictable type of music that has become Love & Rockets trademark sound. They seem very stuck in the techno-pop sound and easily become very boring. The whole concept theme in fact of this 12” is really quite corny. The B-Side of this 12”is taken up by two instrumentals called Bike and Bikedance. The titles suck. The music does equally. If their forthcoming albuti, Love & Rockets sounds like this don’t buy it. If you’re even remotely curious, don’t buy it. You’ve heard it before.

This is her only appearance in Canada this summer outside the Vancouver Folk Festival, The fun never stops and that’s a promise from me to you.

tricky The songs on Calentrire burned themselves into your brain after only’ one or two libtens; Trick of the Light, Hometown Farewell Kiss and Holy Water still remain unforgettable. On the other hand, the tunes on The Black Swan are for the most part the worst sort of fluffy cotton candy, eminently forgettable. f meati, it’s a given that one of the first things you-notice about Calenture is the lavish production and arrangements in short, the technique. But it very quickly becomes clear that backing up that technique is an album’s worth of brilliant songwriting substcrnce. Sib stance is the one thing that’s conspicuously absent from The Black Swati, for all its glossiness. It seems that McComb and his crew have become convinced that they- don’t have to write songs anymore, they can get by on studio tricks of the light. Guess agairi, guys.

by Derek Weiler Imprint staff “Black Swan” is perhaps the perfect metaphor for what the Triffids create: lush, richly indolent music that’s dipped in darkness. Their new album picks up where 1987’s magnificent Calenture left off. The heavy orchestration is still in place: they use a lot of oldfangled touches like accordions, glockenspiels and steel guitars, but they have the balls to mix those up with synthesizarid electronic er& samples‘, drum programmes, Those other Triffids trademarks are here too: plump, juicy bass notes and David McComb’ls wonderful throaty croon. So after all that shameless slobbering, you ask, why only two and a half kazoos? Well, I hate to say it, but The Black Swad, it - UIII, well, that is, you see - (oh fuck it, God hates a coward) - it bites the big one from start to finish. How can this be] so? I just got done proclaiming that the album contains all those Tciffids hallmarks which made Calenture so wonderful. Well, not quite all of them.

With skill and assurance’, the Stratford Festival has shown how easy it is to circumcise a Play The Merchant of Venice is a curious cdnstruct with several ancient elements. Two medieval stories: one - suitors for a lady’s hand having to choose correctly between three chests, and two the exacting of “a pound of flesh” for a forfeit loan existed in many forms throughout Europe at the time. Shakespeare drew on these two unrelated tales to tell the story of The Merchant of Venice. Antonio, the merchant, agrees to a strange loan in order to raise money for the friend to woo a lady. If not paid back in time, he will lose a pound of flesh. He makes these terms with Shylock, a man he has publicly humiliated because he is a Jew. Pdrtia, the lady’, is bound by the will of her deceased father to abide by this provision: all suitors must choose one of three chests’, of gold, silver or lead. The one who chooses correctly she may marry and keep her immense fortune’, otherwise she will have nothing. With a snip here and another there’, the play becomes less about religious and racial bigotry, and more about conflict between embittered legalism and the forgiving warmth of the human spirit. This is only the fifth production of the play in the Festivals’ 37 years. It certainly tries to be the most sensitive in its treatmient. The result is at times uneven, but -still enjoyable. We still revere the Bard, we also acknowledge that some themes have become decidedly out of date.. In our time of Prof. Rushton causing a furor over his racist theories, Shylock no longer receives the ultimate humiliation in the famous courtroom scene; forced donversion to Christianl

ity. How times have changed, original audiences in Shakespere’s day would have thought this a happy ending. For those of us who have seen’ other productions, it takes some of the “punch” out of the courtroom scene. But “art” does not exist in a vacuum, it must be not only responsive but responsible , in a changing society. But our attempts to “modernize” The Merchant of Venice are‘ not without problems. If Shylock is a terribly bitter and lonely man because of a selfrighteous and bigoted Venician society, how do we identify with the rest of the cast, composed of self-righteous and bigoted Venicians? The answer is - we don’t. ,9ntonio the Merchant [Nicholas Pennel), sums up his temperament at the outset: “I know not why I am so sad”. He remains a gloomy, pensive’, and wholly unlikable throughout the performance. I was mystified why all his idle rich friends are so devoted to him and so eager to risk all for his sake. At the end, though out of danger and finding

himself s,Cll possessed of wealth, he makes it very clear his life remains empty. As for his idle rich friends, what more can be said? Lorenzo (Andrew Dolha), whom Antonio almost loses his life fop, is a sp,endthrift idler who fails the first test his new wife Portia, makes of him. Gratiano (Paul Boretski), also neatly sums himself up at the beginning: “Let me play the fool”. The play is sufficiently complex to put a stinging indictment in the mouth of Shylock, the Jew, on his racist accusers: “You have aGong you many a purchas’d slave’, which, like your asses, and y-our dogs and mules’, you use in abject and in slavish parts, because you bought them. - Shall I say to you, Let them be free, marry them to your heirs?” He presents this scenario while standing beside a, black slave owned by one of our “heroes”. X The two characters of real substance and respect are Shvlock and Portia, played masteifully by Brian Bedford and Seana McKenna, Thev represent

the polar positions of rigid iegalism and spontaneous humanity. When Shylock asks why he should be merciful to the helpless Antonio, Portia [posing as a legal exper,t from Padua) answers: “The quality of mercy is not strained,..” ‘Shylock is doomed by his own intransigence. Having shown ho mercy when he had the upper hand, he is shown none when things turn against him in what must be the most absurd legal loophole in literature. The Merchant of Venice is a

handsome production with a strong cast. After a slow beginning with the hilarious exception of the scene with the Spanish suitor to Portia, the play becomes a bright an animated affair, well wortlh seeing. It will be always a challenging play for social sensibilities, and so it should be, the long overdue removal of a- handful of excessively hurtful tines only makes the entire play more relevant and challenging. The play continues in the Festival Theatre until October 28.

The cast is old and crumbly

Latest Star Tre’k qpointless by Jeff Fitzgerald The title of the new Star Trek movie, The Final Frontier, seems to suggest that this is the last outing for the “old generation” of Star Trekkers, but if the rumours are true’, our aging heroes may be back for Star Trek VI and maybe even VII. After seeing Star Trek V, I have mixed feelings about such a possibility. The Final Frontier left me with a vague, unsatisfied feeling that I could not quite come to terms with until the next morning. After all the Hollywood buildup, the movie fell light-years short of expectations. “Anti-climactic” might be a good word here. Back again are our star-trekking heroes Kirk [demoted from admiral to captain in the last movie), Speck, Bones and the rest of the crew. But this time, their performances seem somehow forced. The friendship between Kirk, Speck and Bones (so emphasized in this movie) comes off like three men who would rather not be around one other, but want to make it look like

brother. Yeah, right. Sybok manages to hijack the Enterprise and heads straight toGvlards “The Great Barrier” at the centre of the galaxy, which “no spaceship has ever been through, and no probes have ever reiurned from.” So how in God’s name (pun intended) is the Enterprise ever going to get through this, especially when the new ship is not functioning properly, after being sent on its first mission before meeting manufacturer’s specs?

Keelef,

her story to a Fleet Street journalist. The ensuing investigation results in sensational upheaval and tragedy. The environment this film creates is one of pathetic and sleazy sexual double standards. For example, the )victory party

for the Conservative Party big wigs is in a night club full of mostly naked, cheap showgirls and prostitutes. On a television in the background, a victorious MP drones on about moral responsibility of government. The sex in this film is not offensive. It is simply sad. Dr, Ward is a sexual deviant who manipulates Christine Keeler. Despite her being part of the whirl of high society, she is obviously tormented and depressed. Christine is the victim in this affair and in Scan&l. It is a distressing awakening when she realizes how meaningless her life is. The affairs she has do not bring her happiness. Unfortunately, the film leads the audience to sympathize with Ward, making Keeler seem like his nemesis. His life ends pat hetically but somehow I find it difficult to feel sorry for Dr. Ward. He knew what he was doing and his choice of lifestyle led to his destruction. Christine Keeler was only 17 when she met Ward and although she choose to live how he urged her to, he preyed upon her naivete. Scandal is worth spending $5.00 to see. It is a sordid drama which is entertaining and well acted. As the story unfolds, it is hard to believe it is based on history and not an invention of Hollywood.

1988-89 Warrior, hockey diary by Rich ‘Imprint

Nichol staff

Early last fall while people were still walking around in shorts, the 3988-89 Waterloo varsity hockey team was taking form at Columbia Icefield. With a strong and highly talented roster, head coach Don McKee knew he had another CIAU rankable contender. The goal-hungry Warriors stormed through the pre-season boasting a solid 5-l record, outscoring the opposition 44-19. Their only loss was a 7-6 heartbreaker at the hands of the always tough Western squad in the Bauer Warrior Hockey Tournament - UW had to settle for a silver medal. However, everyone could smell success for this Waterloo pond juggernaut in the upcoming season. October 13 at York: The view of the Warriors’ future in the “pre-season glass ball” seemed a little cloudy after the first game of league play. The trend towards high scoring games continued for Waterloo, but this time the Warriors fell short by one goal, 8-7, in an end-to-end shooting spree. October 16 versus Toronto: Waterloo’s season debut on home ice was the beginning of what was to become a six game undefeated streak. The Warriors put forth another inconsistent effort, but edged the Varsity Blues in a fast skating game, 5-3. Waterloo showed great puck movement on the power play by moving into the open spaces. The forward line of centre Steve Linseman and wingers Dan Tsandelis and Chris Glover dominated the stats sheet, collecting a total of eight points. October 21 at Brock: It was back on the team bus for Waterloo and this time it stoppedin St. Kitts. In a gritty and much improved performahce, the Warriors squeaked by the feisty Badger squad, 3-2. Defenceman Ken Buitenhuis and forwards James Maki and Glover hammered in the goals for Waterloo. October 23 versus Western: Waterloo goaltender Mike Bishop displayed his acclaimed all-Canadian status that he gained the previous season as he shut

November 27 versus York: Waterloo had another resurgence of defensive troubles as the Warrior blue liners began to look like a set of turnstile& at a Super cowl game. The Yeomen went Z-for-3 on the power play through the first two frames, but

December 2 _ versus Laurier: The Warriors beat our hometown neighbours in two previous meetings this year and showed no mercy in the third tilt, winning 3-1. Team captain John Goodman led the Waterloo scoring with two goals, the, winner and an insurance marker. December Q versus Guelph: In their first match up of the season, Waterloo pummelled a very disorganized Gryphon squad, 82. Goodman was at the helm of the Warrior offence once again, tallying once and adding two assists. Waterloo has a g-2-3 record to rest with over the Christmas break. The Warriors now share second place with York, but UW has two games in hand, The spread bet ween Waterloo and first place Western is now three points and the Mustangs have played one extra game. The Warriors are now ranked sixth in the country. lanuary IO a.t Western: After playing seven of their last eight games on hom,e ice, the Warriors were due for a long road trip. In their first stop in London, Waterloo dropped a squeaker to the strong Western team, 7-6. The game was marred by shabby discipline as both teams combined for 62 minutes in penalties. Chris Glover anchored the Warrior offence with two goals. January 34 at Queens: Queens played some smart hockey in this game. Although. their offensive lines are virtually powerless, the Gaels power play unit combined for two goals with the man advantage. Queens upset the CIAU ranked Warriors, 5-3. January 15 at RMC: Waterloo recovered from the previous two losses and obliterated the Royal Military College, 10-O. The Warrior power play put forth a fantastic effort, capitalizing six times with the man advantage. Clover continued his blistering scoring pace with three goals and an assist. This moved him up to fourth in the OUAA scoring list with 35 points in 17 games. Fellow linemate Linseman follows closely behind in ninth with 32 points. January 19 at Guelph: McKee wanted his Waterloo club to play the great defensive game that they did against Ryerson. The Warriors answered that wish and even displayed a somewhat dominating offence in the process, cruising to an easy 7-2 victory. “I was happy’with this win because Guelph is improving day by day,” responded McKee after the game adding, “It was a good start foE the long trip down to the Eastern edge of Ontario.” January 21 at Ottawa: Waterlao continued their slaughterfest by annihilating Ottawa, 21-4, in the nation’s capital. Buitenhuis was the marksman for the War-

Bishop stopped 33 of 35 shots to help earn a 2-2 split with the Mustangs. It could h&e actually been a win for the Warriors in thh five-minute sudden death overtime period. But a blistering shot by UW veteran Linseman was caught by the quick glove of Mustang backstop Mike James. October 26 at Laurier: The game began in close-checking form and, consequently, Waterloo could not move the puck around in the small Laurier rink, Eventually, the Warrior power play unit woke up and outslugged the Hawks, 6-5. Tsandelis paced the Waterloo attack with a hat trick while linesmate Linseman got three points of his own, including a nifty penalty shot goal.

October 28 at- McMaster: It was a close match through the first period, with Mac behind only by one, 3-2. But then the Marauders started drowning in the quagmire as the Warriors went on for six unanswered goals, humiliating McMaster, 92. Danny Glover led the scoring for Waterloo with four goals. “How about that Todd Coulter,” praised McKee, Coulter collected three assists in the game, Waterloo has, at this point, finally solidified their defence and maintained their scoring punch. November 6 versus Ryerson: Neither team was able to dominate play in this, sporadic contest. With the score 4-3 for Waterloo and I:46 remaining in the third period, the referee called a dontroversial hooking penalty on UW’s Coulter. It looked like the Warriors would kill the penalty, but a Ryerson forward dodged a Waterloo blue Iiner and slipped thll puck be’ tween Bishop’s legs at the bbzzer. After minutes of arguing, the referee counted the goal and signalled overtime. The teams split the game d-all. Boasting a record of 4-l-2, Waterloo seemed to be snowballing toward a pennant title. November 12 versus McGill: Period one consisted of hard skating and solid checking, but a combination of predictable long lead passing and careless play on the part of Waterloo allowed McGill to steal the win, 3-2, “We weren’t finishing our checks,” commented McKee, who was ready to shuffle his lines for the next tilt. November 13 versus Concordia: Waterloo rebounded from yesterday’s loss to annihilate the g-2, splitting the Stingers,

Homecoming weekend pair, Warrior ‘forwardJamie McKee put forth an amazing performance, netting four goals (which included a first period hat trick) to add to two assists. November 16 at Toronto: The Warriors had no problem disposing of -Toronto, the Central division’s “cellar dwellers,” in front of the CHCH-TV cameras. Two second period goals by Jim David and Linseman was all Waterloo needed for the 2-0 win. Bishop stopped 34 shots for a well-earned shutout, November 20 versus Windsor: Headed toward another year of all-Canadian recognition, Bishop fed Windsor his second bagel of the weekend as the Warriors blanked the hapless West division leaders, 8-O. Waterloo s,tar centre Linseman scored a hat trick, collecting a total of five points on the day. The wingmen on UW’s line of top ten scorers, Glover and Tsandelis, shared the limelight with three points apiece. The Warriors now have an impressive 7-2-2 record. Maybe a championship is on the horizon after all?

now ready for the second-ranked UQTR Patriotes. January 22 at UQTR: 1n their sixth straight game on the road, the Warriors became homesick and were dismantled by the Patriotes, 11-3. Although the Quebec officials called their usual one-sided hockey in UQTR’s favour, Waterloo was badly outplayed, especially in the third period, as UQTR exploded for six unanswered goals. January 29 versus Laurentian: *Finally, the Warriors were on home ice for the first time in aImost two months! Waterloo showed how much they missed Columbia Icefield with a 13-2 lambasting of the Voyageurs. McKee formalized the problem, stating, “It is tough to attract top hockey players into a cold northern town when there are so many universities in Southern Ontario.” McKee had no worries because his squad had just clinched a playoff spot with this win. February 2 at Lauder: The Hawks finally chalked up their first win against Waterloo and did it in a big way, shellacking

the Warriors in the bubble, 10-4. Laurier outscored UW 7-Z in the second period alone. However, the line of Clark Day, Jim David, and Jamie Maki went plus three for the game and-were not scored against. February 5 versus Guelph: The Gryphons looked like they were determined to win right from the start as they kept the puck in the Warrior zone for the better part of the first five minutes. But Waterloo soon shifted out of neutral and never looked back as they polished off Guelph, 6-1. , February 8 versus Toronto: A lull in player morale brought about a tough loss for Waterloo as the Blues edged the unenthusiastic Warriors 3-2. Consequently, a players’ meeting was called to relax and “air out” any problems. February 12 versus Western: The talk boosted team spirits and the Warriors put out a solid effort without the services of their top line of Linesman, Tsandelis, and Glover. Unfortunately, the breaks and penalties were in Western’s favour as the division leaders squeaked past the Warriors 5-4.

Waterloo had some really good chances to score, including .a Tony Crisp breakaway late in the second period which was denied by fhe Mustang goalie’s trapper, In a very rare second breakaway in the same shorthanded situation, Maki scored high on the glove side for the Warrior fourth goal, Despite the strong performance by Waterloo, critics are beginning to ask why a team .with such a strong first half of the season is now struggling down the stretch. In their last six outings, the Warriors have four losses and are in a slump at the wrong time of year - heading into the playoffs. February 16 versus York: The OUAA Central division semi-final playoff matchups are all set. First-place Western will have home ice advantage against fourth-place Laurier and Waterloo and York will battle it out in today’s game to see who will finish second and earn the extra game at home. The verdict was a Waterloo win, 5-L Waterloo’s powerhouse trio of Linseman, Tsandelis, and Glover connected for two goals on the power play and one at

even strength. The final regular season record for the Warriors stood at 15-8-3, with a tenth place CIAU ranking. February 22 Semi-Final Game One versus York: York took vengeance for their loss to the Warriors just six nights ago and surprised Waterloo in the series opener, 3-2. During that game, Yeomen star goaltender Mark Applewaite pulled a groin muscle and sat out for the rest of the game, and game two. February 24 Semi-Final Game Two at York: In this best z-outof-3 series, ,the Warriors had their backs to the wall in Toronto in a must win situation. Neither team performed well on home ice as Waterloo beat the Yeomen 5-2. The forward line of Jamie McKee, John Goodinan, and Tony Crisp put out a gutsy effort, forechecking with great intensity. With a strong performance like this, Waterloo was sure to advance to the OUAA Central division filial. February 26 Semi-Final Game Three versus York: In the deciding game, Applewaite was back between the posts for York. Consequently, Waterloo fell prey to some great goaltending, losing

the series clincher, 3-1,-A combination of goaltending, faceoffs, bad shot selection, and some errant passing into the neutral zone by the defenceman, brought about an insurmountable hurdle for the frustrated Warriors. Despite being one of the top ten teams in Canadian varsity hockey this year, ,Waterloo was unable to beat the jinx that had plagued them in the last three years, succumbing to their opponents in the first round once again. York went on to defend their CIAU championship crown, defeating Laurier in the finals.
