Abortion injdunction overruled: controversy continues by Shirley-Anne Imprint staff

’

Off

A court injunction over the life of a l&week-old fetus Monda$ July 3 was just the beginning of a swift series of coritroversial events. Last Monday, Justice John O’Driscoll, of the Ontario Supreme Court, placed an injunction over Barbara Dodd, legally forbidding her from having an abortion in Ontario. Under the# ruling, the fetus became a ward of Ontario courts until birth. The injunction was applied for on

behalf

Gregory

Murphy,

the woman’s ex-boyfriend. Murphy’s application argued the unborn fetus has rights under the Canadian Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, It claimed Dodd had planned the pregnancy, and that her gynecologist informed her a potential third abortion - she has had two previously - would place her in physica danger.

There has been no law governing abortions in Canada since January 1988. The federal government ruled the then-existing law as unconstitutional under the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms and took it out of the criminal code. Costigau, Murphy’s lawyer, used the Charter as a basis for the application for injunction this time on behalf of the fetus. If last Moqday’s ruling were to have stood, it would have acknowledged that an unborn fetus has the right to life, liberty and security. This

ruling

was in direct

oppo-

sition to the 1984 precedent-setting case when the Ontario Supreme Court dismissed a husband’s application to stop a hospital from granting his wife an abortion. The ruling asserted thdt until birth, the fetus was not a person with legal rights. On Friday, Toronto lawyer Clayton Ruby submitted the application for appeal on behalf of

Barbara Dodd. On Tuesday, Dodd and her lawyer appeared in court. Ruby stated it is possible Murphy is not in fact the father, The‘ affidavit for appeal was based on the following: that the injunction ignored the 1984 precedent; that Dodd, who is deaf, did not understand the significance of the application sinceit was not translated to her in sign language; and that Murphy’s sworn statements were untrue. Dodd states her intra-uterine device was removed March 30 &I; ;o;xcessive men?trual pai& 3 as Murphy asserts to allow her to become pregnant. Dr. Morad K.

has created a fluid metaphor’for Canada in this building. The obvious references to the topography of our nation cannot be missed but other ideas also come into play. The main entrance, which is symmetrical and humanoid in form, is reminiscent of West Coast native art. The &and Hall is almost erotic with its feminine symbolism. Cardinal’s masterpiece also reflects Canada in more subtle ways. The entire museum is clad in Tyndal limestone from Manitoba. As one wanders along the building, the fossils embedded in the stone become visible to the eye. There is also a rich use of granite, wood and glass throughout.

The first was that this is a “one of a kind” building: a Canadian architectural landmark which will probably become an internationally, recognized building. The second was that this museum will be a celebration of the history of civilization to the very present - only a computer could have helped Cardinal design this ’ totally curvilinear building. This museum will be a .mustsee for anyone travelliug to the Ottawa area, Most of the interior work should be completed by the end of the summer.

by Derek Weiler Imprint staff Despite advance advertising in Imprint and around the campus, a panel discussion on sexual crimes on campus held on June t 28 in the Davis Centre generated little interest. The discussion offered an hour-and-a-half of advice, myth-debunking’ and information to the very few who showed up. The panel was sponsored by the Federation of Students’ Women’s Issues Board and the Women’s.Centre, and chaired by Kim Speers of the WIB. “There will probably not be a lot of interest until something of a serious nature happens on campus,” Speers said of the low

turnout.

Speers handed out a sheaf of stat is tics concerning sex-related crimes reported on campus. In 1988, there were six instances of “Indecent Act-Exposure‘,” five of “Indecent Act” and four of “Sexual Assault.” The two most frequent sites for these crimes were Parking Lot C and the Dana Porter Arts Library. The first panel speaker was Chris Hutchisori, a representaI tive from Women’s Counselling Services. She started her talk by providing a working definition of sexual assault: any sexual act that occurs against the will of one of the participants.

stressed that alcohol, drugs, and/or stress are not valid reasons for rape, and that children who are molested are often forced to have actual sexual intercourse. She de-emphasized the role of sex in rape, saying rape is an act in which sex is used as a tool to degrade another human being. Hutchison offered a statement which she said cannot be repeated too frequently: the blame for rape never lies with the victim. $he also emphasized rape’s lifelong impact on the victim, an impact which may have varying levels of intensity; high suicide and divorce rates are evident in rape victims. The second speaker was Marshall Gaven, representing the UW police. Gaven offered information on policy changes the department has undergone within the past two years.

Murphy has been denied opportunity to appeal the latest ruling. The ruling of January 1988 was intended to make abortion available to any woman who has consulted with her doctor. The events of the last two weeks served to make the decision to have an abortion a legal rather than personal one. ..” . .

people.” The Nlrtetha

A witness to the Beijing massacre of June 4 told an audience of over 70 students and faculty last Sunday night what happened when Chinese troops &ar Tiananmen moved in to Square of student demonstrators. Steven Yanl, a University of Hong Kong student who was in the Chinese capital from May 24 to June 4, recalled the demonstrators’ shock and disbelief at the army’s attack that night, and of the chaos that ensued. “The students didn’t think the army would kill their own people,‘” he said. “They were expecting on1.y tear gas and water cannons.” As he spoke, Yam showed the audience slides he had taken prior to and including the night of the massacre. Many of the scenes’, of weakened hunger strikers and courageous students carrying their wounded comrades away from approaching tanks, were moving; others, of crushed and crumpled corpses in Tiananmen Square’, the Avenue of Heavenly Peace strewn with bodies tangled in the wreckage of twisted bicycles, and cdrpses piled in hospital corridors, gruesome. “During the entire movement there was no attempt to overthrow the party,” Yam said as he showed a slide of students with a banner reading “We are trying to save the party.” “The students hoped for reforms

as Gorbachev was doing them.. . the most important spirit of the demonstration was peace.” He added that what worried the regime more than the student demonstrators was the sight of 30,000 workers out supporting them. “The workers’ participation scared Deng the most.” Yam explained a “uni\tersity of democracy” had been set up in Tiananmen Square and classes held, He said he hopes similar efforts will be made outside of China to encourage debate about democracy. He ended his testimony by showing the audience a large stain on the left sleeve of his shirt, which he said was the blood of a wounded student ‘he had helped carry from the square. Dick Chan of the Toronto Chinese Committee for a Democratic China, who spoke after Yani, echoed the Hong Kong student’s comments when he called for a continuing discussion of democracJr. “One thing we should do is organize education . . . After the demonstrations we. realized we were not clear as to what democracy meang,” he said. He commented favourably on Canada’s reaction to the massacre, noting the Canadian government has called in the Chinese Ambassador four times to voice its concerns over his government’s actions against the students. Furthermore, he added, Canada was the only country to recall its ambassador for consul“I’m really proud of tation!.

what Canada has done,” he said, But Mr. Chan also called for economic sanctions against China by both government and business. He cited the Chinese government’s admission of student deaths after-initial denials, and increases in the official death toll .as evidence that international pressure must be working. Chan and Yam were speaking at the first general meeting of the Association for Human Rights in China, held in the Davis Centre. The group’s list of objectives was approved and a provisional Board of Directors elected. The group will provide financial assistance to overseas students and scholars who can‘no longer return to China, and will lobby the Canadian government on their behalf. The AH:RC will’also lobby the United Nations to establish a commissialn to investigate the Chinese government’s suppression of the student movement, press for economic sanctions against China, and urge a bbycott of the Asian games, to be held in Beijing next year. Finally, it will nominate the demonstrators for the Nobel Peace Prize. The executive consists of UW chemistry professor Dr. Peter Chieh (President), WLU math professor Dr. Edward Wong (Vice-President), UW graduate student Jiang Dti, UW student Terence Kwan (Treasurer],-and Ben Ho of the Central Ontario Chinese Cultural Committee.

COMMENT

1989

Patriotic While dismay at the light sentence handed down to Oliver North is understandable and rightful, it would have been naive to expect justice to be done in the first place. Due ta an immensely complex and well-orchestrated set of circumstanced, it seemed inevitable that the ranking perpetrators of the Contragate scandal would never be punished, and that it might even be unjust and undesirable for Colonel North to receive severe reprisals. However, to attempt to make a comprehensive let alone a conclusive analysis of the affair is to assume that we know or will ever know even a fraction of the facts; the very shredding of sensitive documents by North and his staff assured that, and for insurancg, the late CIA Director William Casey came down with a well-timed brain tumour that prevented him from testifying and President Reagan was providentially kept from the stand in the interests of “national security,” a loaded statement if ever there was one. Furthermore, what seemed to be the scapegoating of North pulled the presumably culpable heads of Poindexter and McFarlane from the fray, not so much to salvage their reputptionb, one would think, as to keep the spotlight from shining too brightly on any details they might divulge that would be damaging to th2 government. As a result, we know little more now than we did when news of the scandal first broke; the questtins of who was really responsible and how much Reagan .reauy-knew remain laq@y unans&%t~ed, h~ Knowing as little as we do, it may be somewhat presumptuous to be enraged by North‘s slap on the wrist. If it is true that he is the scapegoat, taking the fall for those who are truly responsible, would it not be an injustice to nail him to the wall while his superiors escape unscathed? Worse, a harsher sentence might have made North a martyr’, giving his plentiful, bellicose supporters yet more self-right-’ , eous indignation.

Humanist protest

The problem is that although it would hardly be fair to make North pay for everyone, it seems an evengrosser miscarriage of justice that everyone should be let off. The wording of the sentence, which stated that North would not be allowed to take the fall for his commanders, did not condemn their actions so much as justify North’s; he is now neither the Nixon-style, bumbling villain ,nor the misunderstood martyr: North is the vindicated hero.

To the editor,

One could not have asked for a better Hollywood ending - the flawed hero pays notiinally for his sins but is rewarded generously for having his heart in the right place. Clearlyi the jubilant-air of the I courtroom turned North’s sentence into a triumph. The talk of North as a hero is another boon to the U.S. government - it deflects all attention away from the fact that a crime was committed, raising his actions from the criminal plane to the patriotic plane. Patriotism becomes above the law, making the issue no longer whether it was unethical to sell arms to Iran and then divert that money to the Contra rebels trying to overthrow the democratically elected Sandinista government in Nicaragua after Congress denied the Contras any support; the barometer becomes whether the move was done in accordance with American interests.

In -the last few issues of Imprint, I couldn’t help analyzing our reactions to the Chinese studebts’ protest.’ It seems to me that we are overly concerned about the issues that prompted these outbursts. Maybe this is where we “are missing the point.” Of course we think democracy is wonderful because we live in a democratic society which offers freedom of everything (well, almost everything). How could we possibly imagine our lives restricted from these freedoms? But in a-society where there were too many pe,opl2, too little money and an overabundance of corruption’, a choice. had to be made to correct it. China’s solution was through communist socialism [who said it was a perfect solution?) I don’t feel the issue here is whether one form of government is right or one form of government is wrong. If that were the case, why are we so concerned over China and not any other country presently fighting for democracy? And why didn*t we start protesting until the horror of the massacre? Can’t we see that we are crying for these students because they were slaughtered. for what they be-

& hystpria

Biais

The issues surrounding abortion are a particular passion of the patriarchy. I believe that men’s opposition to abortion on demand derived, to a great extent, from their outrage at women’s reclamation of the FepFodUctiv8 process, Access td easy abortion allows women to undo the deeds of men. Since the discovery of paternity, men have made much progress in the control and regulation of a process from which they are fundamentally alienated. Through the possession of wives, the invention of obstetrics and the development of a technology of extrauterine gestation, men have been able to control the use and abuse oC womkn’s bodies and wombs. Sometimes fhis control has masqueraded as benevolence and sometimes it has been asserted as a right. In any case, it has ser%ed to strengthen patriarchy, to.maintain superiority of men over women. If one recognizes abortion as the complete negation of men’s assumed role in reproduction’, one cari, perhaps, comprehend the general mood of patriarchal hysteria displayed in the reaction against abortion. For a woman to self-interestedly maice and act upon a decision without male intervention and especially against the patriarchal party-line, suggests an appropriation of powef, privilege and initiative which is totally incongruous with society’s definition of woman [read: mother). For meti, easy access to abortion contributes to the creation of a creature that is completely beyond their control. To admit or allow this defeat would certainly be embarrassing, emasculating. It would also set a very dangerous precedent. A woman who takes control of her own body does not need a man to assume this “responsibility.” She is independent of him. She does not “need” him for anything. The resultant insinuatioti, that a man can only possess and control women at a wo.man’s discretion’, deflates the definition of possession and control, elements which are ‘fundamental to the maintenance of patriarchy and of men’s confidence in their masculinity. From this angle, rape could be regarded as the expression of men’s outrage, hostility and panic as they experience the nibilistic diminishment of their manhood at the’hands of women. Women who uphold an anti-abortion position likewise have much to lose if society’s definition of masculine and feminine are altered. Indoctrinated with the patriarchal precepts of feminine humility, self-sacrifice and submission to meti, women are socialized to fear independence and to derive their self-worth from their husbands and from the patriarchally institutionalized role of Mother.

Deviation from this model of woman has serious repercussions (degertioti, assault, rape, hostility) and the knowledge of such punishment for failure to comply is also a part of women’s socialization. Abortioti, therefore, is a threat to the sanctity of women’s traditional feminine fole. A woman who is “happily” living within the confines of that role would regard the woman who self-interestedly and independently chooses to have an abortion as a traitol’, a cold-hearted monstef, not a REAL woman. This monster’s’ appropriition of control over her own life and her own body must result in the anti-abortionist’s realizatiob, on some level, of hbr absolute lack of authorit over this area in her own life. If she is to continue her ignorant r y peaceful existence, this realization can not be allowed to surface and thuti, the continual bombarding of her patriarchally induced concepts of mother-

of Gommorah

by JmWw Well, it’s about time, I was beginning to think that 1 was living in Scarborough and Gommorah (Sodom?] Decadence all around me and no salvation in sight. A hearty “thank-you” to those concerned River City, I mean Waterloo citizens who want to prevent any new strip clubs going up here in Waterloo [er, River City?, Gary, Indiana?]. We certainly don’t need the ones we have, let alone any more. After all, it’s common knowledge they are breeding grounds for drugs, prostitution and fornication. They lower ‘property values and, worst of all, corrupt our youth. [Just like the pool halls!) While crusading we had better make sure we get the worst culprit of them all. A place where intoxicants and fornication run rampant. A place which will surely lead our children down the road to moral decay. I am talking about university campuses. (Which doesn’t start with “t” or rhyme with “pool”.) Why, just look around. Isn’t it horrifying, degenerative? Sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll (what, at Fed Hall? You have got to be joking!) are more proliferate here than on the corner of Spadina

and Dundas in Tarawna [Gary, Indiana? Waterloo? Poughkeepsie?) Everybody on campus knows where to go to get blow. (BMH? BVD? MIA?) And weeman? We haive weeman. Leetle boys, leetle gerls? We haive theem, too. Lawts of theem. (MSA? ASA?) And property values?! Boy, haf ve got a deal for you! You vant land, ve got land. I got a duck pond, never been swam in. How ‘bout grmsy knolls? Hardly been sat on. Come on down down to . . . we12 you get the point. Taking away the liquor license is a great idea. (I am referring to the refusal of the Town Council to issue a license to some businessmen who want to build a strip club on Weber near Columbia,) Then they won’t be able to sell booze and make money off those poor, fallen women. Instead, they’ll have to resort to what a strip club owner in Florida did in the same situation, Qpen up without the beer. Of course, liquor laws prevent anyone under nineteen in bars but, no age restrictions exist in context to viewing nude dancing. And what’s so wrong with little Billy watching a little nookie, as long as he doesn’t have a drink. Three cheers for concerned, short-sighted citizens of Waterloo. Baby-sitters are too expensive anyway.

To the editor, I am writing in response to a letter printed in the June 30issue of Imprint. I think that D. VanderSchee and C. Calef have gotten confused in their religious fervor. They write that it is not aritiintellectual to embrace the teachings of the Bible as the whole and only truth, This is the most amazing leap in logic I have ever seenf Intellectualism is the pursuit of learning following the narrow trail of logic and reason. That is the dictionary definition. All things must be proven with reasonable means, When you believe in something that defies reason then you have faith. Faith is the belief in something that you cannot reason out using logical means. If you could it wouldn’t be much good to you. Both intellectualism and faith have their place with mati, but when either of the two intrude where they shouldn’t you have a whole mess of trouble. Since they brought up evolution in their letter I will use it to illustrate my point. Creationists argue from a dogmatic stance. They have only one belief in the origin of man’, the Biblical beginning in Genesis.

Fighting terrorism by Jeff Kohl (courtesy Aiternatives

/ magazine)

The international shipment of hazardous waste has been compared to the slave trade and labelled “toxic terrorism”: five times in 1988, ships from Italy arrived in the remote Nigerian fishing village of Koko and dumped a total of 3400 tonnes of toxic wastes; in July, 13,400 tonnes of incinerator ash was shipped from Philadelphia and dumped in Guinea. Hazardous waste is a broad term for waste that puts human health and the environment at risk. It includes toxic wastes ranging from pestitide sludge and chemical residuals to pharmaceuticals and radioactive materials. There is no complete international database on the volumes and toxicity of hazardous waste;, and available information is largely anecdotal and incomplete. From data gathered from a variety of sources, the amount of hazardous wastes produced globally in 1984 was estimated at be-* tween 300 and 350 million tonnes. Canada produces an estimated 6 million tonnes annually. In recent yeard, the disposal costs for hazardous wastes in developed countries have skyrocketed to between $200 and $2000 a tonne expensive, compared with the US $2.50 a tonne Benin was paid to import five million tonnes a year. In 1983, -70 American industries spent approximately $4.2 - $5.8 billion on hazardous waste management. Rising disposal costs - the result of increasingly restrictive regulation and public opposition ,to new incinerators and landfills have tempted waste producers in developed countries to look elsewhere for cheap dumping grounds. This has led to a growing number of international waste shipments. Environment Canada is receiving an increasing number of notifications of intent to export waste, and in the US:, the number of notifications filed with the environmental Protection Agency [EPA) rose from just 12 in 1980 to 623 in 1988. Most of the American notices are for shipmerits to other developed countries. Under a bilateral treaty signed with the US:, Canada receives approximately 120,000 tonnes of American hazardous waste annually. This represents 75 -I 99 per cent of recorded U.S. waste exports. Though most recorded shipments originating in the First World are made to other developed countrieti, exports to the Third World represent a growing share- of the total. In lQSQ, the EPA received notifications for three shipments to dev&ping countries. In 1987, it received 22. A study by. Greenpeace International lists 115 shipments of toxic waste to Latin America and African countries over the past two years. Canada, despite its good reputation in Africa, has also been implicated. A Canadian firnl, Danison reportedly ,amanged to. r Mining Corporatiob,

start burying nuclear waste in Gabon. Official figures of hazardous waste shipment represent only the tip of the iceberg, and many illegal shipments go undocumented, (Remember the recent incident of toxic chemicals being added to gasoline?) Waste brokers based in both exportiqg and recipient countries often arrange destinations for a company’s wastes, concealing the corporate name if need be, When the EPA enforcement officials surveyed . hazardous waste shipments passing from Texas to Mexico in 1986-87, they found illegal shipmerits outnumbered legal ones eight to one. Many developing countries have expressed outrage at the prospect of becoming the dumping ground for the industrial world’s wastes..At the urging of Nigerian President Ibrahim Babangida, the Organization of African Unity @AU] passed a unanimous resolution in May 1988 condemning the practice. The resolutionhad an immediate impact. Just three days later Guinea-Bissau’suspended a plan to import 13 million tonnes of hazardous wastes brokered by a Detroit businessman. This refusal, and others, have increased the pressure on producers of hazardous wastes to improve their disposal practices. In Canada, our exports are regulated by a notification and consent process. The prospective shipper must gain the consent of the intended recipient country through Environment Canada before a shipment can be made. But there is no stipulation that the recipient country must be properly equipped to handle the waste. Environment Canada cannot block a shipment, even if it knows the recipient country lacks the technology to dispose of wastes safely. Further, no restrictions exist on the export of wastes not technically classified as hazardous (such as incinerator ash), even though many of these are highly toxic. The Canadian government is currently reviewing its transboundary waste movement policy to determine how best to include United Nations control measures that would: minimize the generation of hazardous wastes and thus eliminate the need for their movement; treat hazardous wastes as ,close as possible to the their point of generation; ship hazardous wastes only to countries with adequ’ate treatment facilities;+ and institute an international management systern to track and control the export and import of hazardous wastes. Regardless of the effectiveness of the United Nations proposalti, both developing and industrialized countries face cbnsiderable challenges. The sheer volume and variety af.the wastes to be handled, and the difficulty of enforcing ‘regulations will require almost unprecedented levels of ’ international co-operation. ’ ’ ,For more information on hazardous waste management, visit the WPIRG office, Rooni ‘123

DEAR SEXPERT: My boyfriend

has been asking me to do things I really don’t enjoy. I want to make him happy but 1 to make myself feel cheap, Is this possible? ANSWER: There is no definite answer to this question - it will depend on the quality of your relationship, You,have mentioned two things that might conflict: the need to maintain your selfesteem [i.e. not doing things you aren’t comfortable with) and the desire to maintain your current relationship. In terms of your self-esteem [and general well-being), you shouldn’t do anything that causes physical or emotional pain. Although this seems obviouti, it is surprising how many people [male and female) perform sexual activities they don’t enjoy to please their partner. It is understandable that you want to please your boyfriend, but you can do this without feeling degraded. Also, if he is genuinely concerned with your feeling& he will not pressure you into doing something you are not comfortable with. A common misconception is that your partner will love you more if you do the things you would rather not do. Perhaps your partner will take more advantage of yoti, but it is unlikely that he or she will, care more for you. If you are afraid that the relationship would end if you stopped doing certain things for your boyfriend’ it doesn’t sound like a very stable or equal relationship. Ideally you and your boyfriend will agree on sexual activities that are mutually satisfying. However, if you aren’t able to agree, you might have to weigh the self-esteem and relationship needs against each other. This is very difficult @ do but, if’there is a conflict, it will have to be dealt with sometime. When you are trying to agree on activitiesthat you both enjoy, open communication is important. Your boyfriend1 does not intuitively know what your personal preferences are. Open-ended questions [i.e. What do/don’t you like?) will likely get more honest replies than closed questions such as “do you like this?” Although you shoul,dn? do anythIng that you really don’t like, it might, be helpful to #be open-minded as well, Think about your reasons for not -wanting to .do something. If in doubt! don’t be afraid to experiment. Just because you try something once doesn’t mean that you have to do it again. ’ Hopefully youwill be able ts find activities that you and your boyfriend enj,oy and. that you will feel good about as well. It was difficult to answer this question because there were a lot of things that depended on your personal situation. If you have bny more questions feel free to talk to one of the volunteers at the Birth Control Centre, This column is prepared by volunteers of the Birth Corrtroi Centre. if you have any questions&r us you can visit us in CC206 or cdl us at 885-1211, ext$%Q&.

All other poss,ibilities are quite impossible for them. The view of science in the development of theory of evolution is to provide a reasonable theory that incorporates all the scientific facts that we discover. If new and contrary information comes along, then scientists try to understand where they went wrong before and adapt their ideas. Creationista cannot adapt their ideas because they are based on faith not intellectualism. That’s why their belief in creation hasn’t. changed since it was started somewhere in the dark ages, The theory of evolution is contipually being changed as more and more factual information is revealed to the questioning eye of science. The creationists. can never change their position. It is rooted in dogma and doctrine. An one who has seen ‘Who Shall In K erit the Wind [or read it for that matter) realizes the dangers of confusing faith and intellectualism. Let’s hope some engineers check their definitions before they start running off at the pen.

Do people believe in God because they want to have some type of excusable rationalization for their behavior? Is it because the threat of going to hell is hanging over their head?

something like this. Depending on your behavior during your earth life, your soul will go to heaven or hell. But what exactly is a soul?

Those peo-’ ple who follow the more strict religions are no different to me than those whose religious activities consist merely of going to church once a week. The socalled fanatics have a much stronger belief due to their religion causing them to perform many more acts of faith, which re-enforce the beliefs even more. Christians are also shocked by Satanists because Satan is an image of evil which all gqod people who worship the Lord don’t want to associate themselves with. I am amazed at anyone who can believe in afantasy that involves an imaginary b,eing, re-

gardless of whether it is a symbol of evil or good. Returning to a point made earlier concerning the morals bred in a religion, I will concede that religion serves a useful purpose in that aspect.

an atheist I was talking to said that if she had childreti, she would take them to church just for the&morals that are conveyed there. In summary, it seems that people who go to church and pray find some type of security in doing so. Does this mean they are insecure people? Either that or they have been brainwashed by the sermons from a very young age.

0ne”person I talked to at at length about this suggested that I can’t just say that religion is no good and that it’s a ridiculous thing to involve oneself in, She said I should offer them something else to believe in. So I offer you this. Believe in your-self. You are a strong enough a

person to survive and be at peace with yourself without religion. It’s easy enough to rationalize your actions without using a “God” and a two thousand year old book. If you want a fantasy, watch T.V. If you &ant to donate money somewhere, I’ll take it. If you want meaningless speeches, listen to our Prime Minister. If you want to be a stronger person, believe in yourself and not a fantasy. Finally, I would like to thank Eric Kuelker for showing me what a fantasy religion really is.

To the editor,

themselves on the hot sun; and

Another Canada Day celebration has come and gone for the University of Waterloo campus. We were host to over 50,000 people from the local community, university and visitors to our twin cities. The event was successful and many people have commented to me what a great time they had. Thanks go out this year to student directors of the sub-committees and their staff advisors; student societies and councils of both the UW and WLIJ; the Federation and University of Waterloo staff, in particular those that put up with-our disorganization; the over ZOO volunteers that came out on the day to broil

the corporate sponsors. We, the students, host this event for the community at large. It is a lot of hard work, planning, executing, and cleaning up. But for all the hassle and long houra, it is a worthwhile project and can be a lot of fun. WI?, the K-W Canada Day Council, hope we did our best to make it fun for everyone involved. Again, as part of our thankyou to volunteers, there wilI be a volunteer party at Stages, Monday, July 17.

There is right and wrong and responsibility to what is right is surely more rewarding that the passing fun of one moment. Furthermore, keeping the balloons on the ground did nothing to kill Canada Day cheer. I dare to submit, judging by the delight displayed on the faces of young *and old at Canada Day “balloon breaking” ceremonied, bursting them was fun. Perhaps, then, Mr. Lawson, it’s possible to have fun in a new way, a way that is both fun and responsible.

The group lifted the crowd’s spirits, singing songs from the Nylons, Billy Joel, and the Temptations. Three little girIs even dared to grab the limelight for themselves. They got up on stage to twist right along side of the group but were soon herded off the stage by one of the sound people. Spirit ended their show with the song, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy”, followed by an explosion of fireworks - a perfect way to end. the Canada Day festivities.

by Kimberly Pawley, Matt English, Laura Hahn and Marco- Burelli Did you know that UW students are paying Laidlaw Waste Systems to bury thousands of dollars worth of recyclable garbage? Each year we go through 78,000 kg of newspapers, 231,160 kg of glass and 2270 kg of aluminum. If all of this material were to be recycled, it would return approximately $3780 to t,he University of Waterloo. Some of this waste is presently being recycled, but most of it goes toward filling the citybarbage dump Judging by the numerous small recycling programs on campus, students and faculty are finally getting motivated to do something about this problem;, but unfortunately, as these numbers show, their efforts are still not enough. Now you have the chance to change these astounding statistics, If you’ve been walking around campus, you have probably already discovered the numerous small recycling projects which have been popping up. The merits of conserving precious resources have been increasingly covered in the media. UW is essentially a city within a city, with all the movements, interactions, services - and garbage of a city. In fact, we generate about six tons of garbage each day. Recycling offers afl alternative to simply dumping this refuse in the Erb Street landfill. However, one rarely hears or reads about how to act on such recycling initiatives.

will not always assist you with your program. In this case, pool your resources with another recycling program. Current programs are being run by environmental studies (glass, tiu, newspaper and fine paper), Engineering (glass, steel, aluminum and newspaper), Biology (glass, titi, fine paper, corrugated cardboard and newspaper), and the Campus Center (glass, tin, newspaper and fine paperJ, while various computer centers are collecting fine paper. Linking up with an existing program can help to share the responsibility for transporting the recyclables. When all else fails, get a group of interested students or staff together, find a vehicle (car, truck, van or your baby sister’s red

Now that recycling has become a trendy thing to do, you may find your enthusiasm growing exponentially.

containers? Use your imagination. Some of the most convenient and inexpensive recycling bins can be made with commonplace materials. A plastic garbage can or barrel with a hole *cut out of the top conveniently house tin cans. The hole cut in the top will reduce the amount of real garbage mixed in with the recyclables. Cardboard boxes are great for both collecting and transporting recyclables. There is no need for the time consuming transfer of materials from a storage bin to a transportation container. If the recycling program is at your work place and you expect large volumes of one material, such as pop cans, you ma,y be able to convince a scrap metal dealer to move a dumpster on-site for you. For a fine paper recycling program in your office, look into the Ministry of the Environment’s Project Paper program. When told exactly what you plan to do, the Ministry will supply offices with paper growers [desk top containers] and larger bins into which the paper growers are emptied into periodically. When choosing a method to transport your volume of recyclable& you have three options. If possible, try to enlist the help of a professional recycler. Central Stores will take away fine paper when it is properly boxed and placed on Ring Road or in one of the university mail rooms. Contact Central Stores at extension 2821 before you drop off any papep; and tell them exactly when

There’s only one addit ional thing .to think about before you embark on your recycling journey - motivation. What’s the best way to get a group of people to actively participate in your project? Fortunately, the recent [and ongoing] furor over recycling on campus should minimize the problem if uw is your target. Remember, people will recycle! Nevertheless, don’t overlook the behavioral aspects of your program. A perfectly planned program may go ,awry if no one has the incentive to participate. ‘-L

Imprint,

FEATURE

Studies have shown that when people sign written commitment statements to recycle (‘Lye& I agree to support this recycling program...“) a high er rate of participation is achieved. Moderate behavioral influences to recycle, like this method, are successful because people believe their recycling behaviour to be internally motivated. Hey, if that’s toci psycho-analytical for y01.1,why not try the competitive approach. Offer prizes to the people who bring in the most glasd, tin o whatever! Last term the arts and f ngineering societies started a recyaling challenge where students were! given participation points for bringing garbage to class. In a case like this, participation points becomet the incentive which sustains the competitive drive. Be careful in situations like this - far too oftea-, when the prizes, glory or other incentives are gone, so is the interest, Students on campus these days recycle for a variety of reasons. They realize that much of their waste can be recovered and recycled !! Promoting your project with the use of eye-catching posters could be beneficial in motivating your group

to recycle. Why not mention staggering statistics of some sort to get your message across? Meaningful statistics can do a lot to create an awareness of recycling. Other promotional ideas include advertisements in newspapers and radio or public service announcements on television: It’s really your choice. Be creative and persuasive.

There is no place in which to “get rid” of wastes... At some point you will need to consider your own motives for starting a recycling program. You may be driven by a concern about the rapid filling of our landfill sites or an awareness of, the need to conserve Canada’s natural resources for future generations. Perhaps you take a more philosophical view and are inspired by the concept of the earth as a closed system where inputs equal outputs. There’s no place in which to “get rid” of wastes because the earth is a spaceship of sorts, receiving no new resources and having no true outlets for trash. Or you may have an economic .

Closely associated with the whole concept of recydliag is the idea of composting organic wastes. Composting is a process whereby organic wastes are broken down to their basic constituents (nitrogen, phosphorous, potasium, and so on) by naturally occuring bacteria. All that’s needed is the oxygen in air, moisture, the warmth of the sun and a little time, The end product is an excellent, not to mention sweet. smelling, fertilizer7 and soil conditioner. It’s an old practice which is regaining ,popularity-and why not given that an average of 27 per cent of household wastes are compostable? The figure forthe Village Food Services dumpsters is certainly much higher. Long Island New York thinks composting on a large scale may be part of the answer to their waste management problems. They’re in the same bind that we and most other North American cities are in when it comes to finding laces to put our trash. Compoating is a o tion we can no longer’s Pford to Rive little consideration. %Iesid&, if applied to the university grounds it could go a long way in in relieving the lawns from the assault of chemical fertilizers and weed killers they are subjected to eve’ry year. Mass composting is very,efficient btit sometimes the individual method is more desirable. If you can’t or don’t want to dig a pit in your back yard for the privilege of composting, there are options open to you. . The most practical of these consists of a four foot cylinder and plastic garbage bag They can be bought pre-fabricated from a variety of companies, Environ-mate of Scarborough makes a bag composter and has seen a steadily growing interest in composting. Company manager John Pinder is pleased with the increasing attention and is currently preparing his bag composters for display at Toronto area schools.

Cornposting, he said “is being explored by a wide variety of people, including gardeners who want to know alid see exactly what goes into their plants.” The city of Toronto has recently begun a composting ilot.project where U,OOO individual composters were made availa ifIle to interested persons at a subs’idized rate ($25 instead of $120).

More modern primitives shared Weltanschauung. The egos got the best of Pere Ubu in 1982 when they disbanded for five or six years. s “In 1982 we were fed up with each other and didn’t like each other, so we split up. It was quite simple,” But that central raison d’etre worked its way around the heartache and found them back together again in 1986. Just what is the s ecial active ingredient in Pere U t u? “There is a series of ideas, a series of emotions. Pere Ubu h’as always been a group that ap-

tialities. Here we had run across something ‘that could be marvelous. You can do two things with music: you can run back and forth to the K-Mart with it on weekends or you can get it out on the highway and see where it will go ind how it will take you and you can open the thing up.

proaches music from the idea that you develop music from the social hteraction of a group of musicians, and that music is a visual stimulant and that you try to create a cinema of the imagination; that you use all the elements of sound to sculpt a landscape and to people that landscape. You create music that has a life force to it and that fulfills the function of music. The function of music is to describe that which is indescribable, and to most fully document the human experience. And that ‘is what we do. “It isn’t a philosophy. It’s just something that developed.

THEATRE

Kiss Me Kate is a Samual and Bella Spewack book based on Shakespeare’s Tamingj Of The Shrew, with music and lyrics by Cole Porter. The romance between Fred and Lilli parallels the romance of their characters Petruchio and Kate (same deal with Bill and Lois who play Lucentio and Bianca), The mixing of the two stories as the scenes shifts smoothly from the on stage performance of The Shrew to offstage fiery romance of Fred and Lilli takes the audience to Padua in one scene and Baltimore the next. But all’s not well in Padurt, or is it Baltimore? In this enlightened age of equality andliberty a musical comedy about breaking the spirit of a fiercely independent woman does not seem that funny. To be free is the dream of all persons; the imprisoning of Kate is as funny as knife through the heart. William Blake deplored the

control placed on people when he wrote of the “mind forg’d manacles” in the poem London, For Blake a person’s vitality is displayed when [s)he is free from outside restrictions. With Blake in mind this musical comedy transforms into a musical tragedy. Of course there are plenty of antics, allusions, and fancy foot work tomake this a less than a waste of time it would otherwise would be. Generally the perfarmance is strong, except for a few songs which failed to inspire interest. The main characters [Victor A. Young and Jayne Lewis) give a strong perfo,rmanc& working well with each othef their singing is kindness to the ear. Bill/Lucentio (Dirk Lumbard] gives a ho-hum rendition of Rose Danbe. He redeems himself in Too Darn Hot with a sparkling song and tapdance routine. Lois/Bianca [Susan Henley) was cute and tiresome.

There are so many possibilities and if the action starts. to flag; just have one of the hack characters write one of thoseimprobable hehdlines like ’ “UFO Found In ‘Cheerleader’s Uterus” for some cheap laughs. Trouble is Kotzwinkle doesn’t do anything with this great-foun‘= dation. He leaves this fertile field for satire fallow, letting the story drift into some mindless subplot involving strippers, Mafiosa ,and \yoodoo ritual.

It was a typical cool and foggy morning in the early days of September 1985. While many people were still asleep, about 35 players hit the ice at 6:30 a.m. for our high school hockey team tryouts I noticed as I circled the ice during the warm-up that there was the usual mix of talents and sizes, all anxious to show their abilities and hopefully survive the the final cuts coming up in two weeks. However, one player stood out in the first week of practice. This player, much to the surprise of all,.was a girl. She could stick handle as good as most of the other players on the ice, but unfortunately, she did not have the speed or the size needed for high sch=ool hockey. It was a hit of .a shame because many of the players, myself included; were rooting for her, We all admired her courage and determination to break tradition in this male dominated sport. Many, women and girls are following in the footsteps of a girl named Justine Blainey, who won a court-battle to be able to play in the all boys Metropolitan Toronto Hockey League. But while the controversy goes on regarding the right of women and girls to play in men’s and boy’s _ leagues, there is a growing frenzy of interest in women’s leagues. In women’s hockey alone, there are over 500 registered , teams and about 10,000 players

ran for 60 yards on 11 carriesand caught four out of the air for 20 yards. Waterloo’s one man kick return show, Larry Vaughn, displayed his all-Canadian style with an amazing effort in the second quarter. When a Mac field goal attempt sailed wide, it landed in the arms of Vaughn five yards into the end zone. Vaughn busted out dodging numerous tackles on his way to a ll!%yard touchdown romp. But this was too good to be true and the Waterloo faithful realized this as they stared at a sea of penalty flags. The Warriors were called for clipping, bringing the ball back into the. Waterloo zone. -_ Waterloo will have to really ’ improve to beat the CIAU’s fifth ranked Laurier squad next game. October 15 versus Laurier: It was the same old swan song for the Warriors; a strong defence held UW in the game, despite a sputtering offence, but eventually it ran out of energy. Consequently, Laurier pummeled the hapless Warriors 29-0, leaving UW with only one more chance to avoid another winless season. Waterloo somehow managed to slow down the high powered Hawk offence to only 11 points in the first half. After collecting a single point on a missed field goal, Laurier converted a UW 15yard roughing the passer penalty into a major, complete with convert, to widen the bulge to

in hockey

in Canada. The only side affect of this is a probable decrease in the size of ringette leagues. i Unlike men’s hockey, most women’s leagues do not allow body contact. This creates a fastpaced, quick passing style of game in which the only means of intimidation is through straight talent. Meanwile in men’s hockey these days, in order for a player to skate the length of the ice with the puck, he must be willing to drag three opponents with him because they will all have their sticks hooked around his ribs. The hitting, clutching and grabbing is slowing down the momentum -of men’s hockey. Alternatively, women’s hockey is becoming a refreshing change for pond sport enthusiasts. Canada has been holding national championships for women’s hockey annually for the past eight years. Of the eight teams that competed in this year’s tournament in Coquitlam, B.C:, seven were coached by men, proving that this sport has the interests of both sexes. Women’s hockey will be added as an event in the 1991 Canada Winter Games for the first time ever. But the really big news as of late was the announcement by the International Ice Hockey Federation that Canada has been selected as the host country for the world’s first women’s world hockey k championship next March. Somewhere in Ontario - the

dlowly

citv will be chosen at a later date - “Canada will compete against seven other countries in an eight team round robin tournament. Canada’.s opponents will be the U.S:, Finland, Sweden’, Switzerland, West Germany, probably Czechoslovakia and an Asian block team (Japan or China). Canada does not have a national team, so the Canadian. Amateur Hockey Association will either start a selection process or pick a club team. A Quebec team won the national title held in March and a Hamilton club clinched a 1987 world invitational tournament in Mississauga. Maybe we will even see women’s hocky as a demonstration sport in the next Winter Olympic Games. , Currently, there are six women’s hockey teams in the Ontario Women’s Interuniversity Athletic Association (OWIAA). So with all of this growing interest in women’s hockey, you are probably wondering when Athena hockey will start at Waterloo, right? Well, it will depend on two things: interest ,and money. The interest is fairly strong at Waterloo. Hockey can be a very expensive sport because of the all the equipment. But if Waterloo can get a major sponsor like New Freedom, CCM, or Cooper to support them, you could see hockey action at UW, complete with ponytails under helmets, in the next five years.

19-0, The Hawks polished off the third quarter with a z&yard field goal and put the nails in the Warrior coffin in the fourth with an II-yard TD march through a gaping hole in the Waterloo defence. With Lenart back as the starting quarterback, UW gained only 131 yards. Lenart tossed 16 -passes, completing six for an inexcusable 21 yards. Once again, Beckford was the only star on the Warrior offence, dashing 42 yards on 10 carries. Waterloo does deserve credit for a strong first half though. “If we can play a whole game, even to the extent that we played in the first half against Laurier, then we have a chance,” said McMann. Oct. 22 at Windsor: Waterloo brought its football season to a close with its thirtieth consecutive defeat, rounding out a fourth straight 0-7 season.But this time, Waterloo went out in. style with a respectable performance from both the defence and offence. The Warriors gained 281 yards and earned 17 first downs. Running back Dave Ropret led the attack for UW rushing 26 times for 132 yards, in a replacement role for the injured Beckford. “It was a positive end to the season’,” said McMann. “I’m proud of the offence’they moved the ball really well.” Windsor took the early lead 91 in the first half on several Warrior. fumbles. But Tchir answered back with a 43-yard field goal to close the gap. Waterloo took a brief lead, 11-9, on a z&yard touchdown romp by running back Tom Chartier late in the third quarter. However, UW was called for pass interference on two consecutive plays,

bringing the ball back to the WarFior one-yard line. Windsor then dove in for what proved to be the game-winning major. Yet, in a remarkable effort, the Warriors never gave up, forcing the ball back into Lancer territory. But on a third down and four gamble at the Windsor ZOyard line, Waterloo fell a few inches short of a first down. Moments later, Lancer running back Chris Porter collected his third major on an 88-yard run to put the icing on the cake for Windsor. At Season’s End: At the end of the 1988 season, three Waterloo players held OUAA records. Marc Loisel had the most yardage on kickoff returns with 336 yards on 19 runs. Larry Vaughn’s punt return record of 103 yards held to the end of the season.,Finally, Jim Harding had the OUAA’s longest punt in 1988 at 66 yards. Overall, Waterloo finished in the basement of the eight team league, but managed to place seventh in offensive yardage. The Post Season - Looking Ahead: Not long after the end of the.- 1988 season, Knight was back on his feet and got a head start on recruiting high school grads for next year’s rookie crop. As of early March, - Knight,S McMann, and Ken Hussey have visited 125 high schools in Ontario. , Also, Knight has been holding winter workouts and spring training since’ early January for players on campus. Therefore, the upcoming football season will have a better outcome for the Warriors with the strong sideline influence of Tuffy Knight.

And he’s off! UW Engineering’s Ring Road Classic was held Sunday, July 9. first place finishers were as follows: the 40 km novice category won by Brad Day; David Lum won the 25 km men’s open division; also won the mountain bike race. Team Yoshi won the mountain relay, and the running relay was captured by the Psychosis team. 15 km women’s open was cancelled. photo

Baseball, Spring ‘89 men’s competitive softball season came to a close this past weekend. The weather was beautiful, and the calibre of play was high over on Columbia Fieids. It was a tight race at the season’s end for the top spot in the fastpitch league between Jim Lynch’s Exports, Rob Carmichael’s Special K’s, Todd Hinton’s Wild Things and Bud Mountsteven’s Heavy Timber. In the end, a higher net difference gave Heavy Timber the number one spot and advantage heading into the playoffs. During the playoffs last weekend, ’ the Special K’s upset the number two ranked Wild Things. The
