by Judy Hollands Imprint staff If you go to the Micro room.in the basement of Dana Porter, you will discover that microfilm, “MICSl67” is not with the other microfilms on the shelves. Playboy is on restricted circulation, and if you want to use it for research, you have to ask for it at the counter. Many people do not know that the Arts Library subscribes to Playboy. Currently it is purchased on black and white microfilm only, and the library argues that it is subscribed to for the value of the articles. A volunteer at the Women’s Centre says she thinks Playboy should be cancelled because “it is degrading to women &d there is no use for it if only one person used it all last year.” . She was particularly disturbed that in light of cutbacks to academic journals resulting frOm underfunding, the library still subscribes to this magazine. Bruce MacNkil is Associate Librarian, Public Services at Dana Porter. When asked why the library subscribes to Playboy, he said the main.reason was for the historical perspective in the articles and interviews. In the past, Play boy has interviewed poli tical and social figures such as Ronald Reagan, John Lennon,
Jessica Hahn, and Imelda and Ferdinand Marcos. Apparently, many important authors are first published in Playboy, so the subscription also exists for what McNeil termed the literary value of the magazine, MacNeil explained that years ago the library received the hard copy of the magazine along with a colour microfilm. It was kept in controlled circulation which meant it was only available upon request. Currently, only the black and white microfilm is available. “You don’t need colour photographs to use the articles,” he emphasized. When asked why Playboy has not bpen cancelled while other journals have been, MacNeil explained that periodicals are reviewed regularly and certain disciplines consider this one valuable. The english department considers Playboy valuable for its literary content. Chairman of the department, Professor Slethaug, commented that it is important as a “historical artifact.” Professor Slethaug said he “understands that sexism and gender stereotyping is a problem” with Playboy, but that from the point of view of the english department they want to know where new material is coming from.
The librarv has’received coiplaints abo& other books and periodicals in the past. Bruce MacNeil pointed out that some people wanted Salman Rushdie’s book, The Satanic Verses removed from the library. *’ MacNeil emphasized thqt Dana Porter is an academic library and not a public o’ne. There is a place for controversial material at Dana Porter. The librar$ also subscribes to Cosmopolitain for the same reasons. The Woman’s Centre volunteer was not impressed with the comparison of Playboy to The Satanic Verses. Concerning Rushdie’ book, she commented that what was in question was freedom of expression. “Playboy is a larger picture. It involves the oppression of 52 per cent of the population.” The argument that the historjcal perspective in Playboy is valuable seemed reasonable to her. However, she explained that if something in the past was considered degrading to women it is reasonable to have past issues of it. But that “something currently printed that is degrading shouldn’t be subscribed to by the library.” The Woman’s Centre is currently discussing this issue but they have not decided on any specific action.

VVixk report fee reduced $3 by Mike Soro Imprint staff Good news for co-op students - the work-report marking fee is to be reduced from $14 to $11. Federation of Students president, Dave Readman, says he tias informed of the intended reductions by Bob Truman, of Uperations Analysis, during Wednesday’s Student Advisory Council meeting. The pedu&&n+s not expected to take effect until the spring
term, because it must first be approved by the Board of Covernors. who will not be discussing ._ it right away. A restructuring of the formula used to determine the fee, which appears on co-op students’ tuition fee statements, led to the reduction. After receiving an overwhelming number of complaints concerning the marking fgs&._the university reassessed I the cost for faculties to mark the rq&iamr, : ,%. _ I ,. The $14 fee was calculated ac-
cording to the ministry of colleges and universities guidelines, and involves dividing the total number of’work term reports graded by faculty in a year by the total number of students in co-op. Forty-five minutes is allocated to mark each report. Readman says he does not expect the university will refund the extra three dollars it has bee’n ov’G?charging students since the fee was introduced last MaYe

You missed it. A chance this year to drink (cheaply), socialize ‘and make merry, and still feel good about being “socially conscious.” The twentieth Miss Oktoberfest Pageant protest coffee house had singers, musicians, comedians, and more for the crowd. One of the two organizers, Angela Evans, said that the coffee house had two messages: first that “the image that beauty pageants portray of women is harmful.” A beauty pageant portrays women as sex objects and therefore contributes to violence against women, Evans said. Secondly, Evans stattid that “it’s now up to the K-W community’ to re-assess how well the pageant represents their values and aspirations.” The pageant
Debbie James, 22, of Denver, was crowned Miss Oktoberfest 1989, while outside two dozen protesters celebrated the decision to no longer accept bookings of the pageant at the Humanities Theatre on October 5. As Miss Oktoberfest, Debbie James will reign as Queen over all of the 1989 Oktoberfest events in the Twin Cities. In addition to the publicity and fame, thousands of dollars worth of prizes are presented to Miss Oktoberfest. James was chosen from among 20 other contestants, aged 18 to 25, half of whom were Canadian and half American. The only local contestant, Gretchen Frenzel, a Wilfrid Laurier student, was named second runner up. Students of the University of Waterloo began to voice their concerns about the pageant being held on campus five years ago, by meeting with the dean of students, theatre manager and
president of the university. In 1988, the Federation of Students approached the Faculty Association, who publicly supported the students’ position. The issue was then brought to the University Senate where a motion was passed to remove the pageant from campus indefinitely. The Board of Governors acknowledged the future removal of the pageant from campus due to the strong support shown by the students and the Senate. Angela

Why should women take off most of their clothes to get a scholarship?*’ Another organizer, Renee Beneteau, emphasized the business community’s role in the pageant/The pageant is not about promoting any of women’s strong qualities, nor rewarding them. The pageant is abuut major corporate sponsorship.” According to Beneteau, the advertisers control the pageant and thereby select the look that -will be appropriate for promoting their products. ‘“Therefore, this unnatural, market-assuring image of tiomen is promoted for the adverting cash-ins of the sponsors,” she said.

by John MacFarlane Imprint staff Over ten thousand dollars’ worth of computer equipment was stolen from the Math and Computer building on the night of September 30 in what appears to be a copycat crime, UW Police say. Some tive between- B p.m. . . Sat. urday and 8 a.m. Sunday, the computer lab in room 2059 of the Math and Computer building was broken into and two entire IBM PC setups, worth an estimated $10,500, were taken. Both PCs had been bolted to their tables but the bandits, or bandit, managed to loosen the bolts and make off with their loot.
The stolen computers were actually the replacements for two which had been taken in a similar manner last June 18. In the first incident, the robbers broke in from the main lobby on the second floor but enter’ed through the twenty-four hour lab in room 2054 this time. The cream-coloured computer setups included mouse, keyboard, monitor and processor. Since the PCs were part of the JANET network, it is not believed that any personal software files were lost. The sergeant in charge of investigations for UW Police+ Brian Bradley, says this type ,of planned and forceful theft is highly uncommon for the university. The loss will not hurt UW financially, however, since the computers were on loan courtesy of IBM Canada. It is uncertain, though, whether Big Blue will continue to lend hardware while the mystery thieves are still loose. Any information on either crime would be greatly appreciated. If you think you can help,
give the UW Police a call at 8884911 [off-campus) or at ext. 4911 (on-campus).

Tons o ’ ,food
by Leslie Perrault Imprint staff
Thanksgiving weekend was the Food Bank of Waterloo Region’s most successful food drive to date. The Food Bank’s director, Carolyn Fast, estimates that 90,000 pounds of food may be gathered as a result of the drive. She hopes the ,food will last until Easter, serving 14 various agencies in Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge, Elmira, New Hamburg, and Wellesley. Last year’s Thanksgiving drive produced 81,000 pounds. The food drive began on September 28, in Kitchener-Water. loo with the distribution of a brown bag in the K-W Record. The bag listed non-perishable goods that are needed most: powdered milk, macaroni and cheese, pasta and ric,e, beans with pork, cereals, baby food, peanut butter, canned fruits, vegetables and soup, and canned fish, meat, and stew. These goods are needed all year round, says Fast. After the food drive is over, the main source of this food is the Food Bank’s “bin program.” Eighteen stores throughout the Waterloo region, including Dutch Boy, Zehrs, Mr. Grocer, and a Superfresh store allovdFood bank. volunteers to gather goods left in bins by customers.

The other 65 per cent of the half million pounds of food comes from corporations whose goods would be discarded because of overproduction, approaching expiry dates, or production errors. For example, snack boxes with too many broken pieces are still good, but not very market able. The Food Bank is made up of four staff and several volunteers: During the food drive, over 200 volunteers help to gather and sort the food. On the Thursday before Thanksgiving, Fast said 20,000 pounds were gathered in caneday.

The Food Bank sees the high cost of housing and nutritious food, and low social assistance rates as factors contributing to poverty. The organization states that 40,000 people are below the of them poverty level, 15,000 children. Each year the Waterloo Food Bank handles about half a million pounds of goods per year. About 35 per cent of this is gathered from the public during the Thanksgiving Food Drive and through the bin urogram.
Bomb threat just a joke A bomb threat at Torunto’s Vie Hall on September 12 was all a sick hoax. The threat came around 1~30in the morning and forced all students to evacuate. A wheelchair bound student was unable to leave the building and had to wait thirty minutes until she was rooms evacuated. The police let the students go back to their around 3:45 a.?., but warned them to look ror any unusual items not seen before in their rooms.
Recycling program starts A recycling program is getting underway at Western. The program, which recycles fine paper and newsprint, will cost Western $35,000 in the first year alone. The program will scatter 6,000, two gallon bins and 300, seventy-five gallon bins around the campus.

Many of us seek approval for our thoughts and actions. This need for external approval is often automatic. We don’t think about it, or if we do, we simply dismiss it as an obvious, but worthless observation. If we do, however, we forsake the essential value of our autonomy - the capacity to control ourselves, rather than concede that power to someone else. Because worth is usually defined in societal terms rather than personal terms, a large part of the individual’s self-confidence is based on what others (people this person perceives as authorities] tell him is good, bad, safe, dangerous, success, failure. In the 20th century, media has assumed the role of society’s watchdog and prophet, both rolled into one. Tt keeps an eye on people’s beliefs and predicts what they will believe in the future. Then, it only remains for the media-barons to transmit the messages and achieve the desired results in the masses. Does this sound like a totalitarian conspiracy ? Perhaps, it is.., Have you actually thought about it yourself...? There have been other features written on this (Imprint, October 14, 1988, p.14,) so I will avoid direct reference to it in this comment. Obviously, we may agree that the best decisions are formed by collecting many perspectives. I do not dispute this - I am merely stating that we do rely on external authority figures to make these decisions. More than we are willing to admit, the independence of our values and decisions is controlled by what we’re told by people such as parents, peers, priests, politicians. These people acquire and channel their values using various forms of the media structure as proof of their arguement or as the actual conduit of their opinion. Today, Media Is The Power: it commands the mass mentality. Often covert, sometimes dressed in fatse significance, but never willing to apologize, the media’s capacity for control can be exploited as readily as it can be used for assistance. The power of media lies in the support of the very people! whom it serves - those who need social standards to help guide their lives. Few people can escape jts sphere of influence - newspapers, TV, films, magazines. records, books - some aspect of the media i ouches everyone. Its prt!sence is virtually universal in most industrialized 7 countries. Consider these manifestations of media’s influence: Fashion tells the “successful businesswoman” to colour coordinate her shoes with the colour of her handbag and waistbelt. If shtb does not, somehow shp may appear to be Itlss successful to her colleagues and thus, in turn, to herself. But if she accepts the fashion, shf? admits to external control, and forsakes individuai confidence to maintain her security within the group. Billboards on highways order (using t htl imperative tone) drivers to “Enjoy Coca-Cola.” There is no plea here, nor any cruical information - merely a command to sut,rrllt to the authority of a large and successful corporiition and to consume I heir product. The driver may already be thirsty, so some dirtct pt~t‘suilsion will hopefully rnanipulate his desire for the desirtld effect. Once he does “enjoy coca-cola,” however, it ~na,y become a reflex, especially if he finds other people doing the same. The same principle can he applied to smoking. In short, collectivism lends validity to almost any thought (Jr action. A television commercial indirectly controls parents by manipulating their child’s expectations. If a young boy is shown that the new (2.1. Joe action-figure [as advertised on channel 4] may help him to win more friends around the block, he will surely try to force his parents to buy it for him. Second-hand manipulation may be “underhanded,” but there is no questioning its effectiveness. In terms of the print media, each newspaper (or magazine or book) is 1ikeIy to impress its view on those who read it. There can be no discrepancy in its version of truth unless one compares it with other literature - something we often neglect to do, because we lack the time or desire or [more honestly) the belief in its absolute necessity. To illustrate my point, let’s examine newsprint tabloids which make the world seem as simple and glamourous as a 50s Hollywood production. Maintaining a reader’s loyalty through sensationalism, tabloids treat entertainment, sports, news, business, features, and advertising all as viable forms of entertainment. Considering that reality is far from ‘*a happy ending,” this kind of “candy-glossingover” can blind someone into an artificial smugness, perhaps, in extreme cases, even blissful ignorance. If we give-credibility to one view ov’er another, which we must undoubtedlv do, we leave ourselves at’the hands of the media-barons who coitrol that particular perspective. Neither are politicians outside the influence of the media. Rather, they are firmly in its camp. Public. relations arc a priority for any modern leader - Bush, Mulroney, Gorbachev et al+ Politicians merely reflect the image that their advisors instruct them to portray for the magazines, tiewspapers, TV, etc. The modern political critics (“spin doctors”] in turn advise the masses as to what they should have noticed in their carefully-orchestrated socio-political transmissions. As agents of the me,dia, they try to identify mass trends and predict what will and will not appeal-to the majority. For example, in the recent LJ.S. presidential election, the biggest appeal for Americans was patriotism. So what did we see in the papers and on TV news broadcasts? We saw Bush visiting a U.S. flag factory and Dukakis riding an XM-1 battle tank. Both sides were using the media to portray what they thdught the majority would approve. Each side wanted to control the media’s portrait of their candidate, and in turn control the voting masses. I think it best to turn off our TVs, put down our books, and take a long introspective walk. Pietr Stathis

Letter to the editor.
National lahd use plan needed To the editor, Since studying environment and resource studies at this university, I have been inundated with environmental concerns and issues. Consequently, I am often surprised when I leave this micro-community and meet people who are not aware of environmental problems (other than a generality from the vague media] or who are apathetic to the problems around them. An article in the Ontario Urban Development Institute News: “Policy Statement Won’t Solve Problems” explains why the supply of serviced [sewage, roads. water facilities, hydro, etc.,) land should be improved in order to relieve housing problems. “Housing problems cannot be solved without improving the supp[y of serviced land. A policy statem-ent will not accompliSh this, Instead, the province must’: expedi’te the provision of waste h*lsposal, sewer, water and road facilities -‘release government land holdings in the Greater Toronto Area, and -eliminate conflicting agency demands and unnecessary red tape in the approvals process.” This article goes on to state the iroblems regarding the process tit houses and .lack of “affordabJe” housing. The view put forth -h&e is that urban growth in Southern Ontario has no limit and the province should do whatever is in itspowers to facilitate the development process. A better solution might be to direct urban development and grotith where damage to the environment and/or to the public is minimized. A “National Land Use Plan” could serve to alleviate many problems. This document will illustrate various elements of this con’cept. It is well-known that Southern Ontario is Canada’s most prosperous province. While Ontario
experiences growth, the western and eastern provinces are stagnating or .declining. Can this growth not be shared throughout _ the nation?
A comprehensive nation land use plan would involve federal participation with the provinces and the territories. Two advantages of such a comprehensivl3 plan would‘ be: 1. The decrease of urbanization pressure in most larger cities in Southern Ontario due to decentralization of industry and services. Z. The decrease of animosity felt towards Ontario by other pro-“, vinces who no longer feel neglected or cheated out of development opportunities. As it is now, it appears that the federal government is decentralizing many of its powers to the provinces and territories which
in turn leaves the provinces liable and responsible, not the federal government I This concept of a national land use plan may not tx wtlll -rf?ceived or dcknGwiedged in any sector for many reasons simply because of the number of governments involved in the planning process. A national goal should be determined by the federal, provin.cial, and territorial governments which would take into consideration the resources in each section of Canada in relation to our hopes, as Canadians, for the fut ure.

Pro-Choice To the editor,
Having read Lyn McGinnis’s Choice articles of “Abortion: Versus Repression”, I detect a strong bias on his part and therefore I would like to direct this letter towards him. The most obvious statem+is the title. What exactly is being repressed here ? What is wrong with “Life versus Choice” or “Choice versus Life”? As far as repression goes, isn’t abortion repressing the birth of a human being? Another astonishing bias becomes clear with the thoughtful phrase “Anti-Choice”. Why is it that “Pro-Life”, “Pro-Choice” and “Anti-Choice” are all commonly used terms? “ANTILIFE”! Does this spark a fear in the very heart of all mankind? Does this unnerve the “Pro-Cho-
ice” supporter ? Does it put the word “murder!’ into our minds? Careful selection of words is always best if a sub-conscious doubt exists as to exactly what a person is doing! The biggest question is whether the father of the embryo/child and the embroy/child itself has any rights. It usually requires one male and one female for conception to occur. If the male partakes in the conception, he has a right. The emb?yo, a product of circumstance, also has a right, since it has become a reality. Whether their rights are VALID is what the “Pro-Choice” movement is really questioning. Equal rights of women has some validity, but deciding to piace oneself on a pedestal, ignoring the “rightful” opinions of other concerned parties, raises the question of going100 far. It would be interesting to
is Anti-Life
know how pro-choicers feel about suicide, murder or just walking around naked. If a female’s body is her own to do with it as she pleases, why is it against the law to walk around naked or to commit [or attempt] suicide or murder? As Robert Nadeau, a corporate lawyer in Ottawa states, “There is nothing more precious to Canada’s way of life that better defines who we are as a nation than the freedoms we have and hold dear.. . . Freedom of choice, after all, is the essence of liberty.” Yet liberty without life is meaningless. Rights and freedoms, no matter how cherished, can never be absolute in any civilized society. There must always be limits, to safeguard and protect, among other things, the rights and freedoms of others. Freedom of choice that denies others’ freedom of choice is not freedom at all.”
Have a good t’i me! To the editor, The article “Dancing for disadvantaged” [Imprint, October 6) describes the worthy cause selected by this year’s Village benefit. Imprint quotes a of House of representative Friendship saying: “Some kids are running away from abusive fam’ly situations, whet.her it is phy ical or emotional abuse: other kids want freedom.+’ The very next paragraph mentions “a program designed-to get the kids to go back to their families.” Would you support a program designed to get battered women to go back to their husbands
(“where they belong”)? i wouldn’t: I don’t think the Village semi-formal’s organizers would. Yet they will support people who apparently believe that children belong to their parents, and who are working to get runaway children and youth back to their .abusive homes. Have a good time at the dance, folks. Kevin Schoedel BMath, 1989

The charity the Village benefit semi-formal is supporting is Roof, a drop-in centre that p,ro-
vides temporary shelter for homeless youths. For this article, Imprint talked f 0 two other organizations about runaways and street life. These organizations are not associated with Roof, or with each other. A spokesperson for the House of Friendship said one reason kids leave home is to escape abusive situations. A woman at another organization, Street Kids in Preventive Programs, was said to be working on a program to help street kids return home if they can. It is not a program which forces youths to go back to abusive: homes. -ed.

As for your nicely boxed, “Cross Cultural Summary” statistical data, 71 per cent of these statistics provided do no relate to the issue of abortion, and, the remaining 29 per cent are gross generalizations which do not apply to civilized societies.

Leases by Michael
’
Matthew
QUESTION: Do I have to sign a lease? . ANSWER: No. An oral agreement to rent is just as legally binding as a written one, and you should not be pressured into signing something you don’t want to. However, please be aware that a written agreement is much easier to enforce - for both parties than an oral one. QUESTION: My lease expires in three months. Does that mean I have to move out at that time? ANSWER: No. The tenancy does not end when the lease expires: it continues until explicitly brought to an end by one or both parties. This is known as securitq of tenure.-If the tenant wishes to stay on #and does not want to sign a new lease when the original lease expires, the tenancy is converted to a statutory month-to-month tenancy. However, this conversion works both ways. The landlord can rightly expect the tenant to stay on if no notice is given. If the tenant wishes to move out at the end of a year lease, written notice must be given at least sixty days in advance of the expiry of the lease, with the notice being effective as of the last day of the tenancy, As with all notice requirements, if notice is given even one day , late, it is null and void; the exact number of days -as a minimum - must always be given for the notice to have full legal effect. QUESTION: I signed a year lease, but I’m going to be out of town for four of those months. What can I do? ANSWER: You can either sublet or assign your premises; be careful, there is a difference. You sublet your premises when you leave temporarily (i.e. for four months) and plan to return to reclaim the premises at a later date before the tenancy agreement expires. * The head tenant (original tenan;) establishes a landlord-tenant relationship with the sub-tenant (the person to whom the premises were temporarily let). The sub-tenant usually has no direct dealings with the actual landlord, although the sub-tenant can pay the rent directly to the landlord. Otherwise, the original tenant continues to pay rent to the landlord and remains responsible for the unit. The sub-tenant will pay the tenant rent and has the same rights and obligations as any other tenant, with the important exception of security of tenure. The head tenant may move back in at a prearranged date or after giving sixty days notice to the sub-tenant. When a lease is assigned, it means the tenant finds a suitable replacement to take over the rest of the rental agreement, or longer. In this situation, the new tenant pays rent directly to the landlord,, and assumes all rights and responsibilities that the original tenant formerly held, The original tenant is usually free from any obligation towards the unit, but this is not always the case. To be safe, the original tenant should get a written agreement with the landlord terminating the tenancy. This column is published every other week’as a source of landlord and tenant information.

To the editor,
‘The Sexual Intpirer Chlamydia and Pill Interactions DEAR SEXPERT: I found out this week that I have chlamydia and my doctor -prescribed tetracycline. I’m on the Pill and was told to use a backup method of birth control. How long do I have to do this? ANSWER: Use a backup method of contraception until the end of the menstrual cycle during which you stop taking tetracycline (not just until you finish the prescription]. If you finish your prescription during your present cycle (before you finish your current package), continue using a backup method until you finish that package. Treatment for chlamydia can last for one*to three weeks, therefore it is possible fhat the prescription will carry over into your next cycle. If it does, you will have to use a backup until the end of that cycle. 1 am assuming that your partner is currently being treated as well, If he is not, use a condom until he has been checked and treated. In many cases, partners of people with chlamydia will be treated even without being tested for it. This is particularly true for males because the test can be somewhat uncomfortable for them. If you or your partner has had sexual contact with anyone else recently, it is important that they are informed that they might have this sexually transmitted disease (STD). Most females and many males who have chlamydia will not show any symptoms of it, Although c’hlamydia can be easily ‘cured, it can have serious effects if it is not treated (i.e. it can lead to sterility). Hopefully your doctor discussed what backup methods of birth control wqre available to you. Assuming that this is a temporary concern fsr you, condoms and foam are probably your best bet. When they are used togethec, theywillprYtvide as much protection from pregnancy as does the Pill. The diaphragm and cervical cap are other alternative methods of birth control but these require a doctor’s prescription. The reason you have to use another method of birth control is that tetracycline is one drug that reduces the effectiveness of the Pill. Other drugs that have this effect are penicillin and antihistamines. When you take both oral contraceptives and tetracycline, it is possible that the level of estrogen and progesterone in your system will not be sufficient to prevent ovulation occurring (thereby making pregnancy possible). If you are unsure whether or not a drug reduces the effectiveness of the Pill, use a backup method of birth control until you have a chance to find out for sure from your doctor. This column is prepared by volunteers of the Sexuality Resource Centre [formerly Birth Control Centre]. it will now be published every other week, rather than every week.

Captain Paul Watson hah become internationally renowned for his innovative and aggressive approach to wildlife preservation. As a founding member of the Greenpeace Foundation in the early 197Os, Watson was actively involved in a variety of activities, including an on-site protest against nuclear testing in Alaska in 1971. His dedication to the preservation of the whale population lead him to be the first man to place himself between a harpoon and a whale. He also took part in the first organized attempt to directly interfere with the killing of seals in Eastern Canada in 1976. Upon leaving the Greenpeace Foundation in 1977 due to what he calls its “bureacratization,” Captain Watson founded the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. This international group has been in the forefront of marine and wildlife conservation activities. The Society is registered in Canada, the United States, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia and Sweden. He and other crew members of the ship “Sea Shepherd”, have successfully prevented the slaughtering of whales, dolphins and seals around the globe. In 1985 and 1986, Watson led a campaign against the slaughter of Pilot Whales in the Danish governed Paroe islands, an expedition that led to a full scale armed assault on the “Sea Shepherd,” a situation that he and his crew escaped from and ,exploited through the media on behalf of the whales. Captain Watson recently led an expedition in protest against the use of monofilament nets used by Japanese fishing fleets in the North Pacific Ocean.

He is presently associated with the American Branch. He is a McLuhanesque conservationist and he says his studies in communications and the media have helped him to use the media as a weapon in the struggle to protect marine and wildlife.

More than 4 months have passed since the massacre at,Tiananmen Square. The furor has subsided but only to be replaced by questions. What really happened? Why so many dead? And . what now? “China-1 aft& the Massacre” was the subject of a speech delivered by Dr. Diana Lary of York University, the former Canadian cultural attache in China, last Tuesday, October 3 at Siegfried Hall, St. Jerome’s College. She began by discussing the events that preceded June 4. ‘Ironically, 1989 was to be a year of celebration, a year of triumph for China. Deng Xiaoping was to be crowned the greatest leader in the history of China. While the leaders basked in the world’s attention, unrest grew in the people.

Unable to tolerate injustice any longer, the studhnts began a peaceful protest. They ‘*gently, quietly...asked for dialogue with the leaders.‘* Striving for a more equitable society, they hoped to increase human rights and decrease corruption of those in power.

The last such activity is a pledge to “escalate my participation in nonviolent resistance if ’ the Canadian government allows the installation of a NATO base on Innu land.” If the NATO base does go in, the number of low-level flights will increase from 743,000 per year to 40,000 each year.

test, begun to occupy the run ways at the Goose Bay, Labrador airforce base. Hundreds have been arrested since September of 1988, and most recently six are being held in jails in Goose Bay and Stephenville for occupying one runway in the last week of September, awaiting trials on mischief charges which could begin as late as spring 1990. Pledge organizers hope their November blockade of DND will mirror the efforts of lnnu resisters to stop the flying: if the Innu can stop the flights by occupying the run ways at Goose Bay, then the non-native community whose government is leading the invasion can stop the flights, symbolically at least, by preventing business as usual in the organization that is coordinating and carrying out the war testing - DND.

People become anxious to witness another way of life that may offer alternatives to some of their own society’s ways, to the point that some will risk running away and being unable to return, Schulz said. He felt, however, that the majority of East Germans would rather be able to just visit other nations, still desiring to live in their own country. The only people who might have a strong desire to leave East Germany would be academics and scientists, Schulz explained. As with almost any virtually closed society, education is biased towards the state ideology. It is impossible to study any subject unless it is according to the ya;;xist point of view, Schulz .

more openess would be welcomed to allow visits to foreign countries and alternate points of view in education. Rather, Schulz suggested that the attitudes of the East German people are more dangerous to what stability the nation has. Neo-nazi factions are apparently on the rise in East Germany. Their ,violent attacks on lews, and their necessarily antigovernment viewpoints (the government is very ’ anti-Hitler, and anti-nazi) make these skinhead rebels a great concern to the government leaders, said Elder Schulz, Almost but not quite equelly dangerous, Elder Schulz suggested, is the increasing number of “bums.” The spreading laziness of the people has even reached high government circles.

The minister of justice (secondary leader of the Liberal Democratic Party, one of two alternate political factions, and the one of which Elder Schulz is a member] has sent a letter to the head of state, Erich Honecker, communicating his concern that the moral fabric of E&St German society is being threatened by the lack of incentives for workeks to work hard, Social programs provide as much for the unemployed as for those who have jbbs, and many workers are beginning to realize that life can be a lot simpler on the dole, said Schulz. The incentive for doing overtime is equally obscured by government social programs, Recognizing that the Marxist ideals are not becoming perfectly manifest in East German society is causing some leaders to believe that small reforms, at least, will be necessary, Thus organizations like the church are permitted to take East German young people away for two years service in a foreign country, so that their experiences can serve the nation well. Of course, the other side of the bargain is that the American missionaries are believed to become equally good emissaries of Communist ideals in the West, 1

They ar6 interpretations, as are the following opinions and impressions, from a Canadian businessperson who travels frequently to the U.S.S.R. to promote international trade. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics has a diverse ethnic population and varies immensely from place to place. Like Canada, the U.S.S.R,‘s physical landscape and ethnic cultures change depending on the region. The European portion is a low plain, grassy in the south
Dostoyevsky’s grave and wooded in the North. The Asiatic portion is also a vast plain with mountains in the south and east: tundra in the extreme north, with forest belt below; plains, marshes in the west: and desert in the south, west. Similarly, its population

the inefficient [compared to our standards) communication channels used to inform people about the availability of produce.
The following is an account of Paul’s impressions of Russia I The following is an account of three days in Russia. All the impressions and opinions are those of Paul taken from an interview session, . Moscow is the center of bureaucracy and home to the K,remlin. On first impression, Moscow is drab and dirty. As a tourist coming from the airport, you are aware of the glaring custom officials dressed in uniform. You wait in a dimly-lit airport for your luggage, sometimes up to four hours. When you finally get your luggage, you get your first view of Moscow, It seems there is little concern for aesthetics in Moscow’s modern architecture. The historic buildings constructed before 1917, hdwever, are beautiful. I got the impression that most people in Moscow live in prefabricated rows of apartments. Continuing your journey by cab to your hotel, you get the same miserable impression about the decor of the hotel. On your second day in Moscow,,you decide to see what the natives of Moscow have in the way of entertainment. Russian extravaganzas are filled with traditional cultu,re. Some of the popular attractinns include the Kirov Ballet, Opera, and the Circus. You will be delighted to find that recreation in Moscow is a relatively cheap commodity, reflecting the fact that cultural enrichment is a vital part of Russian society. Another popular pastime in Russia is universal to all cultures - getting together with friends. I was impressed by hrlw Russian people rely on each other for entertainment. The third day you are in Moscow, you might take a walk through the streets and notice the line-ups. These are not for the local rot k c*oncert - they are for food. The concept of shopping centers and department stores is fairly foreign to Russia. What they do have are old buildings with limited supplies of merchandise* For example, in Leningrad department stores on Nevsky Prospekt, you will find a few stacks of plastic watchbands (but no watches!) It’s wise to buy the bands when you see them before they’re sold out, and then wait far the watches to come in later. Generally, the way to pick out a store in Moscow is to look for a few notices hanging on the store window. Another place where goods are sold is the Moscow Free Market. I believe this market contributes to one percent of private enterprise. Unlike other places, all products are available in the Free Market, but at about seven times the price. In Leningrad, you can see the spirit of free enterprise in the streets. Young Russians dis-
Most consumers in the open market get their information from the rumour mill. Not all products are available at all times; they come in stages. As the trucks roll up, the goods are unloaded onto the sidewalks, and often times sold even before they’ve been shelved. The final (unofficial} route of purchases is through the black

market, which is very much alive in Moscow. Here, as a tourist, you would exchange dollars for roubles or exchange goods for services or services for goods. I found that Moscovites are eager to get “hard currency.” Although the official exchange is about 1.6 roubles to a dollar., you can get 20 roubles for a dollar on the black market. The bqrter system is also frequently used by visitors. It is common for tourists to barter for services they have received. In

Gorbachev’s government has decided that the traditional system no longer works. He has introduced two new major policies. Perestroika (restructuring] and Glasnost [openness) contradict many of the entrenched patterns of political and economic life with which the country has been run for decades. Slowly the government is introducing measures that will, in the long-term, strengthen the Russian economy. I believe the main reason for the government’s changes is a desire to make the economy more efficient. As it stands, it lacks incentive and entrepreneurship. With all of its capacity, Russiais still, in net terms, an importer of food. Every aspect of the economy has been controlled by government bureaucracy, making it slow and complex. There is little coordination between each productive component in the system. The farmer must wait for the shipper, the shipper must wait for the distributor . . . No one can act individually.

Having never met a real live Russian, except for that drunk poet in Riihimaki, Finland, I looked’forward to seeing the Soviet answer to Lawrence Welk and his family singers and dancers last monday.

mediately follow. ‘Nough about hockey. Lawrence Welks’ alterego certainly garners a different sort of response from his fans. The Canadian Committee For Human
Rights In Latvia reminded us cultured folk that Lawrence’s merry band of croaners and hoofers also brutalize Baltic conscripts. AND that’s not all! The Ukrainian Youth In Canada differ on the notion that Glasnost and Perestroika equals independence. Yes, these Soviet embassadors of goodwill showed us all what fools these protesters were. They were here to interface with the American public. They must have thought they were in the good 01’ US of eh, because they neglected to sing the only Canadian song on
the program. Instead, we feasted
on a song from “Porggie and Bessy”. The grand finale, the showcase number to leave us all happy was a tribute to Gershwin. Now picture 200 Soviet military personal singing “God Bless Amerika, My Home..,” to a Canadian audience and the audience give them a standing ovation. In spite of all the bullshit, I did leave the performance a little wiser; a fuck is a fuck and if you charge admission you can always get an audience. I don’t know about anyone else at the

Along with the raw, visceral appeal that good rap records possess, some rap - at least the stuff with no sociopolitical credibility with white reviewers can be appreciated at the level of stupid fresh. concept to This is a difficult grasp for some, but if you can see the humour in SCTV, or Rollergames or in most Queen and Kiss records or even in WWF Wrestling or Weekly World News, then you should have no probIems coming tb terms with the
needed to obtain maximum en-. joyment from this LP. Case in point Knick-Knack Paddy Whack: to most, an inane procession of mush-mouthed’ rappers saying stuff like “Knickknack paddy whack give the dog a bone/Ye! I pass P the microphone.” However, to those who have refined their sense of the stupid ,fresh, it’s classic, monstrous and massive. EPMD have not deviated greatly from their first LP; the bulk if their songs are still comprised of slow, bass-heavy samples from obscure early ’70s songs. Over these, Erick and p arish recite their usual litany of
self-aggrandizement and threats of violence (which seem rather exaggerated considering the considerable amount of baggage strapped to their gluteous maximus), So, why then the appeal? It all boils down to their knack for stealing grooves which, though often plodding at first listen, have a infectious kinesis which their laid-back rhymes compliment perfectly. Though De La Soul may have set the all-time record for the most varied and numerous samples on one LP, EPMD’s sampling is often more effective like the great, slowed-down clip from Funkadelic’s One Nation on So What’Cha Sayin’ or the distorted, echoed sample from Dave Bowie’s Fame on the track of the same name. With the exception of the putrid anti-drinking song You Had Too Much to Drink, Unfinished Business meets the high standards they set . I with Strictly Business. Considering the fact that the LP clocks in at over 50 minutes in length, it also represents a lot more rap for your buck than any other rap artist beyond PE.

RE’CORD REVIEWS

Scathing Jane Siberry reviews Naughty album covers Strip-club ads Exploding hamsters Slightly modified cross-symbols by Peter Diaz Imprint etaff The fourth LP from The Alarm is titled Change. Don’t ask me why though. It appears that there has been very *little since their last couple of albums. However, this album do& has more of an edge to it, as opposed to the softer sound of Eye Of The Hurricane. It seems that they are picking up where they left off with Strength. Peters is singing with a passion that was missing on most of their last album and Twists’ guitar playing is brought to the forefront once again and not buried in the mix.
The first side sounds like The Alarm that fans will be used to. Sold Me Down The River, The Rock, and Change II are all great tunes which call to mind older Alarm standards such as Strength and Rescue Me. Although I hate the comparisons that are made between The Alarm and U2, I have to admit that Sold Me does reek of W’s influence. If you’ve seen the video, it’s even more obvious. Peters looks like he has recently graduated from the “School o”f Bono.”
The second-last song (Rivers To Cross,) is a simple acoustic song. I don’t know why these guys don’t use more acoustic guitar on this album. Some of their best material is acoustic. On the album closer, New South Wales, they add the backing vocals of a Welsh male choir. I guess it should be no surprise that The Alarm decided to include a song about their heritage on this album. The Proclaimers, The Pogues, Van Morrisan, UZ and Simple Minds have all done it recently so why shouldn’t The .
A passion lacking on last album On the second side they begin to experiment. Sometimes with great results [Where A Town Once Stood,) and others times it sounds very, very bad (Scarlet). The lead-off song for the second side No Frontiers is a good song and would be agreat single.
Alarm? ,After all, they have never been known for their originalit y. Change will keep Alarm fans happy for the time being but if you. are not already a fan, I wouldn’t rush out to buy thih album.

So charges of revivalism will nut be dismissed out of hand, but the mid-60s R&B/mod-infIuenced rock of Now Dig This is, by this point anyway, a considerably less trodden and cliched terrain than the territory staked out by moptopped bands that still stick covers of Gloria, Psychotic Reaction, and lock The Ripper on their B-sides. Raveups like Now Dig This and So Long sound as fresh as they would have more than twenty years ago precisely because next to nobody’s pIayed this sort of power pop for twenty years. And pop it is. Nobody thinks twice about marketing The Creeps toward a campus radio or “alternative” music crowd, but if this was 1966, record companies would be licking their lips at the prospect of three or four sure hits on this alburn - Spencer Davis, The Yardbirds, even The Hollies sold millions approximating The Creeps’ sound.

Well folks, I don’t have to tell you what the hippest place in town (nay, the universe) is>going to be tonight. Of course, it’s the “Black Oktoberfest” party at the Wod’s. Need I say more? There’s a couple decent bands in T.O. tomorrow night (Saturday the 14th). Montreal’s Asexuals are at the Rivoli, supporting their latest, Dish (lame LP, great title track). Parabeilum are .opening up fsrr them. Oh, and the Forgotten Rebels (are they stiII around?) are over at Lee’s Palace. Andrew Cash #has achieved a certain measure of commercial success since the dissolution of his old band L’Etranger; too bad his creative output just hasn’t measured up. Anyway, he’s at the Diamond in T.O. on Sunday the 15th. Get 8 grip on your netherworldly cryspals, new age fop Andreas Vollenweider is at Massey Hall on the 16th and 17th. The rumoured on-campus Butthole Surfers gig is a bust (Feds couldn’t afford ‘em). But at least they’ll be at Toronto’s RPM on Tuesday the 17th. AIways described by survivors as “gross”, a typical Butthole Surfers gig features pornographic film backdrops and self-mutilation by chief Butthole, Gibby. The real grab-bag comes on Wednesday the 18th. Over at the Humanities Theatre there’s a Nettwerk Records double bill, with The’ Grapes of Wrath and Sarah McLachlan. I’ve never seen McLachlan, but I can tell you that the Grapes are a snore. Meanwhile, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are serving up their funk-p5p-rock hyphen-hyphen everything else over at the Diamond, to promote their new LP Mother’s Milk. Promises to be loads of fun, And bluesabilly wailers The Phantoms are at the Trasheteria in Guelph. Finally, there’s this indie band called the Wammee that the Fiddlehead keeps raving about. If he’s got any credibility in your books, you might want to check them out at Lee’s Palace on Thursday the 19th. Up and Coming: well, there’s still that Public Enemy gig at the Twist on the 236. You can also look forward to The The and the Pixies. Happy happenings.
The point is that while the’60s influence is indelible and the comparisons warranted, The Creeps are crafty enough to keep moving ahead of and around the competition and have 1 .. _ .-e - the pagan rustmess to instill fear in faint, puritan hearts. . Just dig it. And that’s anorder.
Expressway. All of the songs here are ‘straight-ahead r ‘n’ r, with Moore’s vocals sounding like someone cross-bred Rudi Protrudi .and Billy Idol. The title track is the strongest number, but the fiveyand-a-half-minute full-versiori’ included here is a stretch. The other two songs, Live from Dearth Row and Houtchie Cootchic Man are blues numbers, the latter being an unspectacular cover’of the Willie Dixon staple. This EP is a good, but certainly not a great, start for John Moore’s new band. Hopefully their debut album ExpresBway Rising will pick up ,where this release falls short. c

Get down- in Dylan’s groove Dylan - A Biography by Robert
Spitz
639 pages
by Sandy Atwal Imprint
stuff
It would be quite simple for someone who admires Bob Dylan to gush over an extremely well-written book about him; and that’s exactly what I’mgoing to do. Dylan - A Biography, by Bob Spitz, is quite simply the definitive book on Bob Dylan. It is a 639-page tribute to quite probably the most important singersongwriter of modern music. -
Spitz (author of Barefoot in BabyIon, an account of Woodstock) takes us on a trip from the heyday of Hibbing, Minnesota (Dylan’s birthplace) to Dylan’s 1988 album Down in the Groove. It is above all a very detailed book, that covers much more ground, in greater depth, than the other major Dylan biography, Anthony Scaduto’s 1970 book sob Dylan. The book, however, is not a glossed-over, glorified version of Dylan’s life. It also shows Dylan at his most sadistic and cruel. For example, Dylan and Bob Neuwirth’s (Dylan’s friend and personal aide) tormenting of Rolling Stone Brian Jones, driving him to tears just days after he was released from a mental hospital.

There is no knocking Spitz’ writing style. It is an informal style which gives the reader a strong sense of association with Dylan and his life, The book reveals Spitz’ strong sense of dedication to a project. He was supplied with hpurs of recordings of interviews and outtakes, revealing just how elusive Dylan was to the press, yet Spitz manages to capture some of the truth through all of Dylan’s lies.
The book also identifies the strong ties between Dylan’s life
and his music. The book shows the true stories behind songs such as Girl from North Country and Ballad in Plain D, as well as exploring the stories behind the

McMaster 25-27
in
football playoff race
by Rich Nichol Imprint staff Many people say that the meek shall inherit the earth. Well, the meek are becoming the mighty in OUAA football this season. The Waterloo Warriors football team players and staff have e been walking around since training camp with sweatshirts that read “Warrior Football” on the front, and “Playoffs in 89“ on the back. Now, to most people, any mention of the playoffs two weeks agb would seem entirely ridiculous, especially for a team that is in the midst of a major rebuilding and recruiting process. All Waterloo wanted this season was a win to end the losing skid, and their wishes were granted with a 32-9 thumping of the hapless York Yeomen two weekends ago. But ‘now the expression “Playoffs in 89” is no longer tongue in cheek, because the much improved football Warriors surprised the McMaster Marauders last weekend 25-21 at Les Prince Field in Hamilton. The win puts Waterloo in a-tie with Windsor for fifth place in the eight team OUAA West division with a 2-3 record. The top four teams’ makeethe playoffs. Talk about a turnaround year. Just think, if it wasn’t for that one lapse-of concentration in the final minutes of the Guelph game, Waterloo would now be standing at 3-2, which is kind of scary. “We didn’t play real well, but played well enough to win the game,“ said head coach Tuffy Knight. “Even though it was a negative game for both teams, the positive thing for us is that we came back to’win it in the end.” Knight also agreed that the wind played a major role in the

single point atid the Warriors had the early lead 7-O. On the second play of McMaster’s first possession, Marauder quarterback Anthony Alfano threw the ball outside deep into the hands of Waterlao safety Steve Futyer for the interception. This would be the beginning of a game littired with offensive turnovers. With possession, the Warriors could only bring the.ball to the Marauder 36 yard line; So Tchir tried a field goal, but ,the sporadic winds blew. the ball just to the left of the uprights and, luckily, out of the end zone for the single point.

This had no affect on the Dave Ropret who scampered down the left hand side for the Warriors, as they totally domimajor in almost carbon copy fanated play in the opening quarter, collecting two majors and a shion of his touchdown last game.

Finally, on 3rd rushing plays or waiting too long and throwing the ball either into and 2, coach Knight called a play the ground or into open-air. that allowed Waterloo pivot Midway through the quarter, Brian Lenart to make a pass flat right to wide open halfback T.J. Waterloo linebacker Dave Brush Diehl, who trotted into the end tore through the line and sacked Alfano in an impressive effort, zone untouched. UW place kicker Peter ,Tchir kicked the stopping a possible touchdown
drive. Consequently, McMagter was at 3rd and 14 within field range. The Marauders settled for a 36 yard field goal, kicked by Jason Beer, to narrow the bulge 15-3’. With five minutes left in the half, McMaater attempted another field goal from 42 yards out (with the -wind-) but the ball wasdeflected away from the uprights by a-diving Warrior at the line of sdrimmage. The ball spun awkwardly into the end zone where Richard Chen caught it and dropped to his knees to concede the single point for McMaster. Two ‘plays later, Waterloo threw the ball onto open turf or a backwards lateral pass and a Marauder defender recovered the ball. MdMaster capitalized on’ the turnover six plays later when Alfano ran through a gaping hole in the Waterloo weak side from five yards out. With only two minutes left in the half, Waterloo had a narrow lead 1511, and the Marauder offence was showing signs of life. Flashbacks of previous bad luck stints began to plague Waterloo. The Warriors had possession of the ball for only 30 seconds before halfback Tom Chartier fumbled the ball at the Waterloo 25 yard line on a routine handoff. McMaster accepted the gift and then knotched a first down at the Waterloo eight yard line with a receptive one-handed catch. On the ensuing play, Alfano lobbed a pass to wide receiver Ray Martino, who juggled the ball and finally caught it before it hit the ground in the end zone. Waterloo’s offence could only ‘collect five yards on its next three plays and therefore punted the ball back to the Marauders. Mac accepted the short punt at the Waterloo 45 yard line but could not gain any yardage on goal
:
the possession. Beer’s virtually impossible field goal at tempt. of 51 yards was blocked and recovered by Waterloo freshman Lie; nel Felix, and the score would remain 18-15 for McMaster at the half. Yours truly shared the birds eye view of the field in a box high above the stands with Waterloo assistant coaches Ed Bajon, Chris Triantifolu, and Brad Winter. After witnessing a pathetic Waterloo offence in the second quarter, we all agreed tfiat the quarterback and offensive backs would have to pull up their socks or be replaced in the se&nd half. I don’t know what was said in the dressing room at the half, but the offence was a lot more consistent in the final half. Poor coverage on pass defence allowed the Marauders to storm to the Waterloo 27 yard line in the opening minutes of the second half. On-the next play, the Marauder quarterback threw the ball purposely into the ground just a split second before. All-Canadian linebacker Dave Shaw sacked him, creating ‘a Mac penalty. With the ball moved back to 2nd and.20, Al-
fano hesitated once again and , paid the price when defensive end Mark Yarmel broke through the line to sack the Marauder QB for a loss of another five yards. Things remained rather quiet until Beer notched a 28 yard field goal at 4:10 of the third quarter after a 50 yard drive. McMaster led 2~15, . With less than a minute remaining in the quarter, the Marauders had possession on a 1st and IO situation at their own 30 yard line. While executing a running play, McMaster fumbled the ball. Waterloo veteran defensive back Richard Chen grabbed the bouncing ball on the run and headed down the sideline with four Marauders in pursuit, The speed Warrior out-ran the first two Befenders, dodged another and then flopped into the end zone as the last Marauder -tackled his legs. Tchir added the single pain; and Waterloo regained the lead 22-21. Waterloo’s crowd of 250 fans restarted the ecstatic cheers that had stopped in the dismal second quarter. The momentum was finally swinging Waterloo‘s way. The applause of the Warrior faithful was silenced momentarily on the remlting kickoff when McMaster returned the kick all the way back for a touchdown. However, there was a flag on the play and the Marauders were called back on an illegal block. The defensive backs, normally ’ the most solid unit on the team, looked a little shaky. Three minutes into. the final frame, Tchir added to hir convincing season total with a long 43 yard field goal. Waterloo 25, , McMaster 21.

They began to consistently J&J their rucks, forcing Western into a strategy of concession. Western realized that they would lose most of the rucks, so they left more players outside to hit the emerging Waterloo ballcarriers.

Although he didn’t get much time on the hardwood in his freshman year last season, Baird definitely has the talents that p&iously put him on the Ontario provincial team.
from page 24
This year’s lineup of possible future Waterloo basketball stars are as follows: GUARDS: With four of the five guards from last year returning, there is little repair work needed in this area. McCrae will not give away secrets of who will replace Schneider at shooting guard, but here are the list of hopefuls.
Mike-Duarte - 6’ 2” This peay’s only first-year addition to the guard roster is Duarte. He was well known in high school at St. Thomas Moore in Hamilton for’his great quickness.
Chris Troyak - 6’2” The guard positions will be led by this very consistent third year player, who orchestrated the offence well in 1988-89 as, Waterloo’s starting point guard. The Kitchener native is well known throughout t!heleague for his well controlled dribbling skills. Andy Zienchuk - 6’3” Zienchuk enters his sophomore year with a wise move from small forward to point guard position. Andy shoots well from just inside three point range. He was a K-W’aM-star while playing for Bluevale Collegiate two years ago* Jason Poag i 6'2" Poag, another Bluevale product, will also be playing in his second year. He was well known-. last yeal’ for his successful relief role for the starters. All of the above three players have really stood out in training camp and should take on leadership functions. The other guards vying for floor time dre:
Lance Lockhart - 6'4" Lockhart played relatively little last year but will give support to the big men in 1989-90. He is a big, strong player despite coming off knee surgery and is now the healthiest he has been in six years, including high school.
THE FORWARDS: The Warriors lost Mootie, Clark, Rosebush, Bilawey, Vinic, and Sawchuk for various reasons and so have many gaps to fill. There are only four returning forwards to combine with five rookie prospects. Again, McCrea will not speculate on who the starting power forward will be. Right now it is too early to tell and he considers all of them swing guards.
Chris Moore - 6'6" The freshmen forwards are headlined by this Barrie North High School prospect. McCrae calls him a diamond in the rough and comments that fans will be #impressed by his aggressive style.
Pat Telford - 6'8" Thq tallest and most experienced player at his fourth year of eligibility should be at his opportunity now. He has been at an unsettled position for three years now. There is a sign that hangs up on the gym wall at Waterloo games that reads Let Pat Play. Well,‘ McCrae says that those pleas will be answered this season.
Bruce Vanloon - 6’6” This native of Newtonbrook High in Toronto works well in the paint and has a good basketball sense. lohn Hamilton 1 6'4" Hamilton won the Mike Moser Memorial Award for being the Player of the Year in the K-W area. He played for Bluevale Collegiate last season.
Ron Braley - 6’7” After a year’s absence, this 235 lbs. powerhouse forward made a return to basketball with I a transfer to Waterloo, But a severed tendon in his foot took away half his playing time last season, This year Braley is much healthier and will take more of a limelight role.
Sean McDonaugh - 6'2" This freshman from John Abbott in Montreal can play both small forward and shooting guard effectively.
Don Meace.- 6'6" The team relied on Meace for his astounding shooting range in 1988-89 and it helped win some big games. His game, in this his junior year, must expand more, if possible, for Waterloo to imrtTIT\ffca 1
Darren D’Agvilar - 6'4" . Last, but certainly not least, is this local player who played his high school years with St. Jerome’s and Forest Heights. Anything McCrae picks from these schools seems to turn to gold in future years.

The views and opinions expressed in the following opinion piece are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect thos# of the Imprint staff as a whole. ,
For several years, Ben Johnson was an inspiration for many Canadians. For a couple of days 1,astSeptember, he was; arguably, the greatest hero Canada had ever seen. It doesn’t seem fair that such a man is now-a failure in the minds of mariy, These eople still have sore feet from jumping off of the bandwagon so q9 ickl Johnson will finish serving his two-year suspension from the International Amateur Athletic- Federation (IAAF) next September and will be allowed to run again as an individual entrant in international meets. However, there is a strong possibility that he won’t be able to run ,Fgain for Canada after his lifetime suspension announced by Jean Charest, our sport minister. It makes no sense that Canada should give a harsher penalty, completely distinct from the IAAF suspension. In April, Initernational Olympic Committee President Juan Antonio Samaranch made it known that. Johnson would be welcomed at the 1992 Ganies. “Johnson was treated like any other athlete in Seoul when the IAAF suspended him,” said Samaranch. “Now we have to do the same. He must not get more sanctions just because he is Johnson.” Jean Charest should listen to Samaranch. Johnson made a mistake, was caught, and subsequently is paying the price. Heshould be able to continue his career where he left off, after he has served his two years. Canadian track officials are not the only ones who have treated Johnson unfairly. The IAAF recently stripped him of the world record that he set two years ago. The reason for this decision was Johnson’s own admission at the Dubin inquiry that he was taking steroids at the time. In Seotil, he tested positive and there was no doubt that the record could not stande7In Rome, he won the race undetected and his record should remain. As long as records are retroactively removed from athletes .because of steroid admissions, these admissions will become few and far between. Also, between the various international, national and Olympic spurts committees, federations and associations there are so many inconsistent rulings bn drug use, For instance, Ben cannot keep his gold from Seoul in 1988 nor his gold from%Romein 1987. But for some unknown reason he can keep his bronze from L.A. in 1984 despite his confession of being on steroids since long before that. Many of Johnson’s top opponents, including Carl Lewis, have publicly denied using steroids. But they have not been put into a situation where they have had to testify under oath of past or present ‘use of steroids. Johnson could’have lied at the Dubin inquiry and kept his record. His reward for telling the truth? The removal of his coveted recor$ Johnson’s record in Rome should have been allowed to stand and he should be allowed to run for Canada next year. He will be tested for steroids frequently, as should all world-class athletes. Ben Johnson should not be treated differently simply because he is Ben Johnson. What is needed now is other “Dubin-like” inquiries all over the world including the U.S., U.S.S.R,, Germany, etc. Only then will fairness be brought forth. For now, Ben Johnson remains the main scapegoat for the entire amateur track and field population.

Soccer Athenas ’ bury Badgers by Lynn Hoyle8 Imprint staff With visions of four days off over the holiday weekend and third place standing on the line, the Athena soccer team hit the pitch on October 4 against the viSiting Brock Badgers. The saga of injuries continued as emergency keeper Sheri Macdonald broke a finger in practice, and centre back Lisa Page became fate’s next victim to play between the posts. As well, halfback Kerry Jameson was sidelined with a quadriceps injury suffered in the McMaster game. The Brock team chose to defend against the wind in the first half and although the Athenas kept them hemmed in their own end, neither team managed to score. In the second half, the Waterloo squad played an excellent passing game on the ground, and this paid off as fullback Mary Green gave the ball to centre half Heather Bowers, who put a through ball to forward Julie Latreille. lules coolly buri.ed the ball behind the Brock keeper, for her first goal of the season. Brock came back to tie the score at 1-1 soon after this and the game settled into a battle for possession of the midfield, The

fullbacks moved the ball- well into their ‘own end, and Kelly Campbell laid a long pass to right half Joni Gendron. She beat the Brock fullback with a clean cross and Laurie Whyte collected her second goal of the season off of a right-footed half volley. Waterloo came right back at Brock from the kick-off by stealing the ball. Left wi ger Anita Toogood combined J ith SWhyte on a give-and-go that resulted in Toogood beating the Brock keeper to the near-side post, notching her third goal of the season. The game ended 3-1 and the Athen& maintained their thirdplace tie with Western in the quest for the final playoff spot. The entire team played well, and special mention goes to two players: former fullback Sarah Boswell, who continues to play well. in the increasingly familiar midfield positions, and sweeper Lisa Bater, whose Ben Johnson imitation (speed. not s,teroids) has allowed the team to press forward on attack. secure in the knowledge that she can run down almost any opposition. The team plays Laurier here on October 11, and then Windsor comes up from the south to play on Saturday. Octnber 14 at 3100 p.m.at Columbia Field.

This past Thursday, the Athena Field Hockey team met the Guelph Gryphons on their home turf. After a week of practicing to play on Guelph’s fast, crowned field, the Athenas felt very positive about the match. Guelph’s powerApparently, house: had also done their homework and were more prepared than the Waterloo squad. In the first three minutes of play, Guelph had full possession of the ball and carried it straight to the Athena goal circle. The shot was fired from the un-. marked forward, leaving the Athenas with their mouths agape. Before the whistle blew for half time, the Gryphons added two more goals to the scoreboard. At halftime, the Athenas gathered into their huddle to try and play fix-up for the remainder of the game. Coach Judy McCrae stressed the fact that the Gryphons were flooding the ball and not allowing the Athena-forwards to carry the ball into their disgoal circle, They quickly cussed what major adjustments needed to be made before the whistle signalled the start of the second half. If the Athenas appeared to be struggling in th*e first half, the struggle was magnified in the second. With the exception of a few , key players - namely defenders Lisa Armstrong, Helen Snare, Carolyn Robinson as well as links Annette Koehler and Caitlin McGregor, the Waterloo team simply let themselves down in terms of technique and
discipline. Guelph scored two more goals in the second half which resulted in the final outcome - 5-O Guelph. In the post-game huddle, coach McCrae addressed the defeat ed squad, “You guys let yourselves down, you got your asses whipped. . . okay, we lost, now let’s see what WC can do to make things better.” The Athenas look forward to

This summer our cheerleaders went to a cheerleading camp at Rutgers University in New Jersey for a grueling week of stunt practices, fitness activities, and cheering drills. They were up every day at 7 a.m. and participated in the various activities until 5 p.m. At the end of their week, they were awarded with two trophies: Best Fight Song and Most Improved Squad, These guys and girls are pretty busy. Their strong lungs and vocal chords go through a grueling workout with practice twice a week for two hours and cheer throughout an entire varsity game. Practice time will be increas-’ ing because of an upcoming competition in November where the cheerleaders will be up against other squads from the region. They will also be performing at the Vanier Cup half-time show with other teams. Good luck to our cheerleaders. We’ll be rooting for you!
