I stance Life Building by Peter Brown Imprint staff

The campaign for the Student Life Referendum on Nor. 21-22 begins next Tuesday, Oct. 30, but some students think that the F&deration executive have already started endorsing the plan. The proposal would increase the current $10.00 Athletic Facility fee by $10 yearly

Vellinga says “vote YES for the SLB”’ increments until 1993 to help finance a $12,00O,OOO expansion to the PI-@cal Activities Complex. This addition would contain an indoor track, activity rooms, squash courts, an athletic injury clinic, and other facilities. A letter in fhis week’s Imprint (“Feds talk trash,” page 8) out&s a number of concerns about President John VelIinga telling students to ‘Vote YES for the Student Life Buildillg!” in the Federation’s student handbook and the Campus Recreation handbook published in September. Vellinga is out of town at a but Vice-President conference, (Finance) Tess Sliwinski was avail‘able to explain the executive’s point of view. “John’s endomement was supported by Km (Speers, VPUA) and myself. It’s the position of the executive,” Sliwinski said. But she did not feel that such a statement constituted campaigning even though the student handbook is an official Federation product. VelIinga’s statement also appeared in the C-Rec. guide, but SIMnski said

that Vellinga supplied the statement to Athletics, the publishers of the guide, at their request. Responding

to critic&n

three weeks given for the

‘The Icefield was just Phase One of the expanding of athletic facilities,‘: explained Sliwinski. “The debt for that project was paid off two terms ago, and the fund now contains $377,000. And we spent about $10,000 of that on the feasibility study.” She said that she can see how students may be concerned, but that this is a Catch-22 situation. “To bring the issue before the students, you need a plan, and that costs money to put together.” . Sliwinski also confirmed a rumour that the executive had commissioned the Federation’s -Board of Communications to produce a video promoting the SLJ3 earlier this month. This is despite the Oct. 30 campaign start date and the Feds’ referendum guideline %t “All major campaign work must be done outside The Federation of Students Office.” “The Video Commission is a service available to all Federation members, not an exclusive executive resource,” she said. ‘The No committee could ask BComm to assist in a video of their own if they wanted.” She did not indicate; however, how this did not constitute campaigning-

that the

not enough to educate students, Shinski pointed out that normal Federation procedure for referendum allows only ten days between the beginning of a campaign and the vote. ‘The beginning date of the referendum was set by the Chief Returning 0f@er Christopher Burcsik and the Referendum Committee,” she said. ‘They decided to extend it to three weeks because of the importance of this vote. Three weeks should be enough for both sides to make their case.” Sfiwinski admitted that the executive would be working tith the Yes committee, but maintained that this was not a conflict of interest. “Well be giving a slide presentation for the Yes committee, since we know more about the feasibility study (pfepared by Brisbin Brook Beynon Architeqts). But the others members of the cdm&tee will be the ones speaking at the forums and in classes.”

She also made it clear that anyone with concerns about how the referendum is being handled can appeal to the Chief Returning Officer Christopher Burcsik, who can Iimit campaigning for a committee or cancel a committee’s $1,000 budget, making the chairperson(s) financially liable for the costs of the committee’s carnpaign. Sd far, no one has stepped forward to form the No committee. Those wishing to do so must contact the Federation of Students by Monday, Oct. 29 and attend an organizational meeting that day, since that is when mailouts are sent to off-campus students. If the project is approved by students on Nov. 21-22, the ground would be broken in January of 1992, with the projected completion date being the fall of 1993.

Lb Sliwinski There til be two forums before Nov. 21 where students can hear arguments from both committees; the dates wiil be announced at Tuesday’s press conference. Another point of contention expressed by me student’s letter concerned the money spent on the feasibility study and the fact that the $10 athletic fee, originally intended to pay for the construction of the Columbia Icefield, was still b&g collected.

Referendum: r6Yes99 landslide’ by Pet&hown imprint staff

In the second referendum in a month, UW accounting students resoundingly approved a $75 educa: tion contibution last week. Chief . returning officer Scott Garrett reports that of the 410 students who voted, 344 or 83.9 percent said yes to the fee. 267 of 314 on-campus votes were in favour, .while 77 approved of 96 oficampus votes cast. “The results clearly show that accounting students want this fee,” said Janice Wright of the Yes campaign. ‘Well be able to forge ahead with introducing the fee.” Wright

hopes that the fee can be put on students’ fee statements for the winter 1991 term, but it may take longer. ‘We (the Accounting Student Educational Contribution committee) wiIl k m-g with administration in &e n& future to discuss the fee. There are a lot of administrative details to work out before the fee can actually appear on statements.” The fund created by the ASEC fee will go primarily toward offering two courses that accounting graduates need to be certified by the Ontario Institute of Chartered Accountants. This fund will be overseen by a committee jointly made up of students and hculty.

The 30 percent turnout was down from the first voided referendum in which 51.4 percent of the approximately 1,000 on-campus students cast ballots. Results from the first offcampus vote were not known. .

The first accounting referendum took‘ place on Se@ 26 and 27, and was declared null and void by its chief returning officer Scott Timson on Sept. 28. Timson said that opposition to the referendum had not been anticipated, and so the No campaign was not given enough organizational time. For the second vote, the Federation of Students appointed Scott Carrett, someone with no involvement with the School of Accountancy.

Correction An article titled “Artsies pay photo fee” in last week’s Impri@ (Oct. 19, 1990) described how the Arts St& dent Union collected a $5 fee from each arts student for booking graduate photos. The article also stated that the contract for grad photos between Jostens (the photographers) and the Engineering Society included a $15 sitting fee per student. This is irworrect.

The $15 fee is not a sitting fee (one that goes to the photographer for the session itself), but a cornposte fee for which the student receives a smaIl poster with the grad photo of everyone in his or her graduating class. This same composite fee exists for

the other faculties on campus, except for Arts. The only department within Arts that has opted for the coinposite fee is Accounting. A handful of nonAccounting students were charged the composite fee by mist&e, and all have received refunds. The article also states that “the Science faculty’s sitting fee ranges from $9 to $17.” In fact, Science has the same $15 composite fee, and no sitting fee.

FIBRE

It is important to have many sources of dietary fibre in your diet. Fibre is important for three basic reasons: 1. It provides bulk without calories. 2. his a constituent of foods which have a high nutrient density (fruits and vegetables). 3. It has certain beneficial actions while it passes through the body. There are two main sources of non-digestible fibre in the human diet. Cellulose and hen&cellulose (fruits and vegetables) and grains in the form of bran. A high-fibre diet is one which is rich in raw vegetables and fruits ;ind in whole grain cereals. A diet which is high in fibre will produce enou& bulk to keep your appetite under control while at the same time keep your caloric intake relatively low. Fibre is beneficial to the human diet because it allows us to increase the amount of food we eat but does not have an equivalent increase in the number of calories consumed. In fXt, many of the most successful weight reduction programs allow, and even encourage the consumption of high-fibre, low calorie foods.

The Benefita of a High Fibm Diet

One of fib&s greatest benefits is that it aids in stool elimination. Anyone who has ever suffered from constipation knows that by increasing the amount of fibre in the diet will alleviate their problem. One of the properties of fibre is that it traps water inside the gastrointestinal tract thereby softening its conten&.The result is thatthe muscular wall of the intestine works easier and moves the intestinal . contents more rapidly at a lower pressure. Fibre not only traps water, it may also trap other intestinal contents. One such constituent is cholesterol. In certain individuals, a high-fibre diet has been shown to4lower serum cholesterol levels. Increasing the rate at which food moves through the gastrointestinal tract may reduce the risk of cancer of the colon (large intestines). How to Increase the Fibre Content of Your Diet Persons wishing to increase the fibre content of their diet must adhere to three general rules: 1. Do it gradually A person who is accustomed to consuming a diet in which there is very little fibre will often feel bloated and may sometimes experience gastrointestinal discomfort if large amounts of fibre are suddenly introduced. Therefore, institute the necessary changes slowly, over a period of weeks or months. 2. Incorporate any necessary changes into your current diet. This wiil allow you to eat more fibre without radically changing the way you eat. For example, use whole wheat bread instead of white. As the amount of high-fibre containing food increases, the quantity of other foods will gradually decrease by itself. 3. Get the increased fibre from a large variety of foods. This will ensure that you get the maximum amount of the necessary vitamins and minerals. For most people, a high fibre diet offers a way to control appetite, to consume fpwer calories and at the same time take in adequate amounts of needed minerals and vitamins. Start your fill up with fibre - Today!

Annual Charity Run by John-Paul Doweon special to Imprint The residences of St. Jerome’s and Notre Dame have been hard at work since the start of the term organizing thii year’s 15th annual Charity Run. The run has grown greatly since its -inception many years ago, and cochairpersons Shannon Kelly and Dan Milkovich are hoping this year’s will attract a large turnout from students on the main UW campus. The Central Ontario Developmental Riding Program (CODRP) is the charity that will receive the proceeds from the fund-raising events this year. CODRP coordinator Anne Fielding recently addressed the students from the two residences to express her gratitude: ‘We are very excited about being chosen as this years charity.” CODRP is a non-profit organization that provides therapeutic and recreational ho&back riding for the developmentally handicapped. For many of the participants, horseback riding is the only activity they can take part in due to their physical limitations. The riding program feels fortunate that it can provide this form of recreation to disabled persons as well. “Self-esteem is important for our the program’s newsletter.

This term, the .Division Managers at Dag Ha mmarskjold (Hammar) have initiated a program whereby several members have the opportunity to do volunteer work for community service organizations in the K-W area.’ One might ask why we are running such a pro&ram. The university population is sometimes labelled as lacking compassion for the outside commur’uty* We are hoPing that Pm grams such as this will help change this perception within the K-W community. We also wanted to give Harnmar members a chance to pursue individual interests for their bud&g &ores (an htegd pa of coop bving) doing volunteer work, in place of typical chores such as serving food, mopping or acting as management in the orgahtiom A key aspect of fie

program is the individual initiative which must be taken to participate, insuring that only dedicated memhers get involved. There are now 11 Harnmar memhers doing volunteer work for the duration of the fall term. The majority are doing three houn of work per week The organizations involved &,b term ilre be Red Cross Society, A&&& society Amnesty International, Heart and Stroke Foundation, Alzheimer’s Association, U.W.

Due to the success of this brand new program, we intend to continue running it each fall term. It could also expand into some of the other WCRI Divisions (on Phillip St.) in the future, which would significantly increase the number of members involved.

Everyone says that it is obvious. Americans and Canadians are fighting in the Gulf just to ensure that our oil supply will remain safe and cheap. Then there are those who compare this war to Vi+ Nam. At that time we were fighting against the intangible evils of Communism. At least this time we have sound business reasons. Or do we? The cost of the American effort in the Gulf is $1.5 billion a month. Should Iraq retain control over oil supplies in the long run, they will . be forced to sell this oil to the world markets in order to obtain food staples which must be imported. This implies that either the U.S. (and us) will continue the trade embargo with Iraq (Tesulting in a trade deficit and increases in fuel prices due to the higher cost of refining domestic resources), or we will agree to resume trade, paying just slightly higher prices for Iraqi controlIed oil. Do these higher costs justify spending $ billions now? Perhaps. One must also examine the benefits of these black scenarios. Admittedly, higher fuel prices are a blow to the economy. However, the recession is decidedly inevitable regard-

less of oil prks. The search for domestic oil and alternate energy sources would be intensified once importing oil became uneconomical. Higher prices will also provide incentive for the average citizen to drive less and generally reduce consumption. Both of these actions have been sqessed for years as absolutely necessary for the protection of the Earth’s environment. The value of this protection is immense, and the cost of delaying such measures due to any success at re-securing traditional oil supplies must be added to the $biIlions in this discussion. The next issue in the Gulf crisis is humanity. Iraq is bad and Kuwait is good. Adually, most of the world is good (by the defiktion that anyone who opposes the actions of Iraq is good). It is the duty of the good to protect its partners from evil. But aren’t we a little too late, a little sloppy, and a little snobby? Many in Kuwait have already suffered. A war in their territory will not help. Similarly, one must agree that many Iraqi are also innocent in the matter. Thus, we see the principal illogic bf war - it results in more death than any gain can justify. Will the parents or lover of a Canadian or American

serviceman killed in battle rejoice at the gas pump in the near future. q e while filling the tank of the hearse? The bottom line is that any death that results because of North American involvement in this affair is a cost that infinitely exceeds the previously mentioned $billions. War is uncivil and inhumane. The civilized world must make every conceivable effort and more to avoid such barbarous behaviour. An extended trade embargo may not have the lightning fast effects of a war, but patience will yield rewards. ‘wind your own business” cannit be chanted against our governments with respect to this crisis. Clearly, the Persian Gulf IS Our business. But even in business terms, the wisest move is confining our actions to passive involvement .only. The impact of a war on the other side of the Earth is never understood until the bodies are shipped back here. I hope that the fear of such an impact entreats us t& spend more to avoid war, than to cause it.

Big Prof sat at the head of the circle. Everyone was quietly staring into their own psychosis when she began the session. “I want everyone to feel comfortable and relaxed. Today well start by going over some of the terms by which you can all achieve your mutual freedom. It’s our ward constitution” Some of the Chronics swayed listlessly at the back of the Day Room. “Every time you do what you’re told you’ll get a gold star beside your name here on this sheet.” Big Prof pointed to a piece of paper with evexyone’s

name one it. “When

you have

received 30 stars you get a general and if you get 40, an honours.” ‘You might be asking yourself what we all have to do to get these rewards. And I will tell you, it is very simple. Just follow the rules and be obedient. You all do want to get better, don’t you?” None of us blinked as Big Prof’s eyes pierced into each of our personal insecurities.

“Now I’ve laid out different ways in which get the rewards, various YOU can requirements. They may seem foolish to you but we, the doctor and I, have determined that we should pick what you should do to get the stars I know it may take some of you three or four years to complete this big a project but’if you try and get ten stars a year. . .“ “But that’s too much!” It was McMurphy. “How can any of these boys really learn anything if they have b rush through that much material at a time?” “Learning is not necessarily the point of the exercise, Mr. McMurphy. You are all here so you can learn to have proper respect for authority. Now, if I may continue, if you wish to change one of these requiremeqts to another you must ask our

permission,

whereupon,

if your

reason

for not taking the requirement or wanting to change is good enough, we will grant you permission to drop.” “But why do you know better? It’s us who knows whether or not we got the stuff to do that much work, not you.” “Mr. McMurphy, if these outbursts continue . . . we know what is best for you, that is why we are in charge.

To the editor, As a music co-ordinator and music lover, I feel compelled to voice, my personal opinion regarding J+ Hagey’s reviews, whether he cares about it or not. I am appalled by the insulting tone he takes no matter what band or artist he happens to be reviewing. The main goal of a reviewer is to provide an interesting, informative synopsis of an artist. However, Mr. Hagey seems to believe that a review is merely an opportunity for him to make use of all the slanderous, derogatory adjectives in his vocabulary. I believe that campus radio stations and newspapers should be supportive of local talent. This is not to say that a review cannot include constructive criticism, but the key word is “constructive.” Perhaps J, Hagey should consider another endeavour more suitable to his disposition and leave reviewing to someone with a little more maturity.

There also happened to be two badminton posts sitting right there. Although the ceiling is lower and there are no lines on the floor we were perfectly happy to play there. We we?e bothering no-one; in passing some custodial staff even made an amusing remark as to how we could keep score. However, after only pIaying about twenty minutes, all the lights in the gym were switched off. As diplomatically possible we enquired if there was any way that they might be switched back on, even if drily in the upper wing so we could keep playing.

To the editor,

Please let us hear no more from Cheryl Curran, Women’s Issues Board Commissioner, in the pages of Imprint. LA me try to explain why I say this. In the October 19th issue of Imp&t, an article by Ms. Curran appeared titled, “Sexual Assault.. . Be (A) ware”. In the past, I have had serious objections to the publications of the Women’s Issues Board, both in the Imp+, and in the Campus at large. The concern I have is that their material is so discriminatory. In “Sexual Assault . . . ” for example, Ms. Curran seems to presume that all sexual assault is initiated by men. I have no objection to the distribution of material to protect people from sexual assault, but I do not see the point in specifying different ‘Tips for Men”, and ‘Tips for Women.” This kind of segregation is discriminatory to males, and offensive to me!!! I had the Same objection l&t year ivhen Imprint ran Tother WIB piece abut date-

rape. I attended the paper post-mortem meeting and asked what I thought was a sarcastic question: “Are tiales the only ones who commit date-rape?” I was quite surprised that % many people thought that males were. One bastion of journalistic intelligence even questioned whether or not females could “rape” males under the definition of rape. (Which, I .wilI point out, has no legal definition in Canada.) I do not like to feel ashamed to be male, yet I am when I read these pieces. Because of pieces such as these I feel that the Women’s ISsues Board does as much damage in the fight for sexual equality as it does good. This way of addressing an audience is discriminatory. It discriminates on the basis of sex - I believe that many people calI this “sexism,” and openly speak out against it. But let me return to the thesis of my letter. I have read the Imprint Principles and Guidelines document, and I am given to understand that Imprint does not accept material that discriminates on the basis of race, religion or sex. I am asking Imprint to live up to this self-imposed rule. Until Cheryl Curran and the Women’s Issues Board learn to transcend their sexism, I feel that the Imprint should stop being a mouth-piece for this organ&ion. B.C. HoIm& B.Math, CIass of ‘90

Feds talk trash To the editor and the Federation of Students, So the Fed executive has collectively spoken about the proposed “Student Life” building. Hot damn.. 11 In their letter to the editor last week they’re mad as hell at Jon Hagey’s commentary which asks fundamentalquestions about the content and motivesof a November 21/22 referendum for a 12” 21 million dollar megaproject. President Vellinga, VP0F Sliwinski and VPUA Speers accuse Hagey’s journalism of sensationalism, misinforming and “trying to create controversy instead of understanding”. Give me a break. AlI he is doing is asking a few insightful questions. This powerful trio have a lot more explaining to do than one defensive diatribe to the editor. Let me add to Hagey’s list of questions: First, why are alI students presently force to pay a non-refundable $10 fee for the “investigation and sydy of the feasibility of the construction of a Student Life building”? (UW Calendar, sec. 3:8) Have we, the students, ever approved the expenditures for these studies? What were the studies’costs and how much have the executive spent on advertising for the YES campaign? Second, why do two full pages of the widely issued 1990-91 “Student Handbook” and alI 32 pages of Campus Recreation’s Fall 1990 Program, blatantly advertise the merits of this megaproject? VeIlinga et al. state that executive (i.e. YES campaign) “had to exercise great care and discretion until October 30 when talking about the proposal”. What lies! The datebooks and the Campus Recreation Calendar are both widely issued early in September, before the “official campaign” was to have started. YES expenditures clearly have been channelled from our Federation of Students and Athletic Fees for propaganda. In the ads Vellingz exercises no restraint 1and states with rabid giee: “The fee is reasonably small for such a fantastic building . . . this is a solution for now and the future . . . vote YES for the Student Life Suilding!!” (p%O-161) Campus Recreation also feeds misinfonnation to new and returning students in the “Registration Newsletter”, the paper sent in our tuition statements. They inform us to “vote YES” for the Student Life Building, with no identification of what the building(s) might be or might cost students. (p.7) Third, are the “YES” Trio afraid to consult the 20,000 plus students who are going to foot the bill for consultant’s studies and the pro-

Forum posed megaprojed? By student body, I mean more that the Campus Centre crowd who may happen to drift by for an emotional debate. I mean more than including a couple of pages in the Imprint, with less than one month before the 12-21 million dolIar vote takes place. YOU ARE OUR WELL PAID LEADERS: don’t bitch about student apathy if you cannot consult any better than Brian and the Boys, with their top-down Meech process. Be a little more creative when you consult. Do something about informing us when we return form our work terms or holidays, rather than telling us to “vote yes” for an unexplained 12-21 million dollar issue. Fourth, why the urgency to build? Are the plans set in stone? Do not tell me that: “Several studies have been done over the years indicating that students are concerned about the lack of recreational and activity space. ” Do not telI me, vaguely that “The Student Life Building has been an issue for over four years.” An issue to which students and how many? What types of studies were carried out and when? Whom and how many students on and off-campus (work terms) were surveyed? What were the issues they were asked about? Could student opinions have changes or be different from these past “studies?” Tell me this. Fifth, whose costs and whose benefits will result from the $12-21 miIlion expenditure? What realistic alternatives were suggested to improve the “quality of life?” Did you ever talk to our architecture/engineering students about the design, accounting /economics students about the financing? What sort of informed electorate do you expect to have less than one month from now? Tell me seriousIy. Sixth, has anyone estimated the additional student fee increases and capitalization period, linked to the estimated $12-21 million capital cost? When I became an alumni after this December, I do not want to be responsible for giving present and future UW students Fed Hall-like fees, which continue after the year 2000. Clearly executives’ role dealing with finances, tendering consultants, promoting and shucturing the referendum conflicts with their roles as “YES” supporters. The Fed executive should learn from the former government’s cost overruns on Skydome or UW’s own Davis Centre. Perhaps our Federation ought to ask UBC’s student government what happens when you try to ram down an expensive project down the throats of 30,000 students without proper consultation, or a mandate. The4JJK student executives and Phys. Ed. associations have promoted ongoing referenda for the past few years, and have been unable to restrain their support for a glorified athletic centre.

While I have never met Jon Hhgey it s appears that we have informally formgd-the “NO” campaign for the November 21/22 referendum. Not only will I be saying “NO” to one of three costly megaproject proposals, I will be saying “NO” to the consultation process, misappropriation of Federation and Athletic Fees and possible conflict of interest shown by the current executive.

Is Student Life worth 21 mil? s-

TO the editor,

J. Hagey did not just become the Features Editor by sitting on his rear, he must have worked for it. And still, people do not give him the respect that he should deserve. J. Hagey’s comment was right tin the spot. It does not matter if he knew of the answers, only that he filled his requirement as a journalist. He has informed the society of questions that need to be asked. In fact, J. Hagey’s comment has invoked J. Vellinga (President), Tess Sliwinski (VPOF) and Kim Speers (VPUA) to reply. In their response to the comment by J. Hagey, they say they have been pondering over other issues, like underfunding, safety, the environment, housing and women’s issues. Did they note the lack of space in science labs, or the lack of equipment or does that fall under the ‘underfunding statement’? What are the background of the issues of safety, the environment, housing and women’s issues? What are the results of earlier studies noting the lack of recreational and activity space? Has J. Hagey said, where are the lineups at the PAC?? Do we redly need everything planed in the Student Life Center? Is life at Waterloo University that degrading to spend 12 million to 21 million dollars? Does the majority of Waterloo students want this new building? Does every student fully understand what the Federation has planned? The Game of Life is played by all, only those small few decide on the fate. Shall we stand behind a President and Vice Presidents that are so shaky, they can not take some harsh, But true, statements from the Imprint? Robert HagIey 1A Physics

Reader reveals the TRUTH! ’ TO the editor,

Imprint has reached an all-time low. Every time I pick it up, I think “this paper is getting increasingly bizarre !” How can you print articles, ads and graphics that offend so many people?! Specifically, I believe that the “Club Dead” ad in your October 12 issue is a complete disgrace. Taking a close look you11 notice that the cut-out pasted into the ad depicts the crucifixion. Little do you realize that in everyone’s eternal life we will have to see Jesus Christ die again, whether we be in heaven or hell. FinaIly, it is because of this great event (Jesus’ death) that we alI have a hope for eternal life which wiI1 be nothing like your ad depicts. I think your ad and the person whose idea it was is both sacrilegious and unfortunately out of touch with the truth. DarrenRoorda 3B GeognPhY

Forum d alone, frustrated. Fifteen minutes ago. I was staring into the faces of my friends, saying, “It’s not the fucking bar you gotta worry about, it’s the fucking band, go in there and dance, ya jerks!” Right now, my friends are in some ‘club’ dancing to a certain tabernacle choir, Right now, I bet at least one of them is pissed off that I am not with them.

Even though you now tell me I can’t get such reward for my $5, because I have liquor on my breath?” And the little behemoth smiled, and said yes. Do not see band. Do not get $5 back.

WCRI To the editor,

After reading the brochure from Waterloo Co-op Residence Inc., I decided to live at Dag Hamrnarskjold (WCRI); however I was extremely misconstrued and disappointed. I was vulnerable when I decided to live at Dag Hammar because I had no place of residence

as late as -mid-August. From the moment I received acceptance of accommodation, my parents and I were suspicious about procedures and policies. In order to claim a room, I had to send $1,879 before I had even received notification by mail. Since the cost was three hundred dollars cheaper than all other on-campus residences, I decided to take the chance. My father’s final words before my decision were, “You get what you pay for.” The information from this brochure appeals to many psychological motives: a fun, enjoyable and stress-free environment; a challenging and rewarding experience; and a comfortable place to help each occupant to successfully make the transfer to a productive university education. The brochure describes WCRI as “student-owned,” “co-operative,” and “sociable.“All these adjectives give a person a perception of an enjoyable and relaxing community. In addition, “fags” (work-duties) are described as helping a person to feel responsible. this is supposed to be a challenging and rewarding experience. FinaIly, the social life at co-op sounds so encouraging and gratifying. the new occupant just cannot wait to arrive on site. Based on my understanding and experiences the communication through the brochure does not accurately reflect the type of experience desired. First, there is supposed to be a bike room; there is no room for bikes. Second “student-owned” is referred to as students taking part in the daily operations, functions, decisions, and duties of the residence. I was persuaded to believe thatthis is a benefit. In reality, “student-owned” should be changed to “‘student-conspired.” Ever since being at Dag Hammar, I’ve noticed that if a person does not conform, there are unnecessary consequences. In other words, the person must do everything another person (with special rank) asks, says, or advises. Failure to abide bi these principles will result in a fine and/or eviction Dag Hammar has been more of a student-jail than a studentowned residence. bstly, since cmxpants are given rankings (by vote, which is not mentioned in the brochure), the democracy becomes fascist. This is not a sociable and cooperative atmosphere. In Dag Hammar an occupant is always being reminded to do their jobs properly. There are designated people to ensure that duties are done properly. these designated people are similar to police. In comparison to other residences. WCRI lacks enthusiism and spirit. There is nothing

rewarding and challenging about living at Dag Hammar. From my experiences I feel I have relinquished 25 per cent of my marks for each subject due to “fags” and (work duties), and inconsiderate others. Three hours of an occupant’s leisure time per week must be contributed to building duties. These duties include: washing dishes, vacuuming, mopping, and washing pots. In addition, one hour per week must be spent on floor duties which include: washroom cleanup, kitchen cleanup, and vacuuming. Thus, four hours of a person’s leisure time must be sacrificed per week. As a result, I find myself cleaning public washrooms for four hours on my weekly day off (Friday). In the brochure, it is not mentioned how many hours per week are spent on “fags,” only than an occupant has to do them. Even when I signed the occupancy agreement, this was not revealed. After one week at Dag Hammar. I realised that my father’s judgment was correct. Finally, each Division Manager (building supervisor) claimed that the primary objective is “to make the transfer to a productive university education.” At Dag Hammar, there are two Division Managers. Since week one, I found them both to be unsupportive, biased and untrustworthy persons. Drinking parties always get out of control, and no-one realizes this until something happens. Unfortunately, 1 became a victim. Due to drinking party, and a minor confrontation, I was asked to attend a hearing for the purpose of my eviction. During this hearing, I was asked to tell of the occurrences. Since I prevailed as the sur: vivor (victor) from the confrontation, I became the accused. I was told that the judicial committee will be fair, unbiased, and unknown to myself, witnesses, and both Division Managers. This was not evident to me at my hearing. As a result, I have since been evicted, and I am appealing on the grounds of discrimination and improper policies and procedures. First, in the Owner’s Manual (each occupant is an owner since it is co-op), it states that I) Z%e

is entitled to representation (eg. lawyer, fiend, intepreter etc.); and 4) A verdict must be basedon facts established at the hearing through material evidence and credible witnesses, not hearsay. I was denied both these rights and accused

plan to take (proper) legal action against WCRI. In conclusion, I strongly feel that WCRI has misconstrued many with their persuasive,

Youngest PhD

JEkzt hasyour roommate done to oflendyou . lately??

CAMPUS QUESTION by Rike and Dave

W’s Youngest PiID From UW News Bureau An 18 year old computer science student, who has “only begun to realize his potential,” is the youngest PhD recipient ever at the University of Waterloo. Tony Lai received his PhD during last Saturday’s convocation and will soon head off for a year of postdoctorate research work for NIT, the telephone company in Japan. He was among 868 students graduating from six faculties during two UWummcation ceremonies. A native of Prince Edward Island, Tony breezed through elementary school, skipped all of high school, and entered university at age 11. When asked how difficult he found the studies for his PhD, Tony said: “I guess it was sort of tough.” “He’s only begun, to realize his potential,” says his supervisor Dr. Derick Wood. “There’s a lot of intellectual development that can go on within him.” In elementary school in CharlotTony was in an intetown, dividualized mathematics program and by the end of grade three, he had complete the course through grade six. He skipped grade four, and while in grade six, finished seventh iri a provincial math competition designed for high school &Ldents. His academic achievements came to the aftention of Prof. Owen Sharkey, a psychologist at the University of Prince Edward Island (where Tony’s father, Chai, is a professor of physics. Sharkey gave him a series of vocabulary and intelligence tests and helped to persuade the university registrar to enroll him on probation for one year. This was after Tony took a university summer course in calculus while in grade six and scored in the 90s.

Now at the grand age of 18 with a PhD, Tony says he plans to return to North America in 1992 for postdoctorate work after he completes his one-year assignment that begins in January in Tokyo. After that, Tony says, he’s “not sure” what the future . holds or about his eventual goal. His main area of study involves computer data structures - trying to organize information so it can be retrieved and changed quickly.

As a result, Tony entered univer-sity directly from grade six. He achieved straights A’s, completing a double honotirs promam and receiving a bachelor &f sence degree in physics in three years at age 14. Although it was a four-year program, Tony said he “took summer courses to try and speed it up.” Tony first applied to the University of Toronto masters promam but had a

When he came calling and was accep ted at UW, university officiaIs assisted him in finding a place to live, he said. He spent four terms in residence at UW’s Resurrection College. While at UW, he raced through the masters program in computer science in just three terms, completing his degree in late 1987 at the age of 15.

His brother, Jim, 22, is also a UW student. Jim, wGo skipped grade 12 in PEI, is studying for his masters degree in computer science. Academic achievement. at such a tender age does have some drawbacks, Tony has found. Since he isn’t yet of legal’drinkin~ age, Tony wiU miss out on one of the rituals of UW PhD recipients - enjoying a complimentary bottle of champagne in the Grad House.

Toward solidarity by Helen Victoros and Herold Women’s Centre Co-ordinators

Bernie

On November 8, the Women’s Centre, with the support of the Women’s Issues Board, the Graduate Women’s Issues Cbmmittee and the department of Women’s Studies will be holding a coffeehouse at the Grad House in support of Manushi. Manushi is a magazine written for and by the women of India and focuses on both the rural and urban society of India (and sometimes Pakistan). It has been integral in the fight for women’s rights and, more generally, on oppression in these societies. Government has been quite progressive in urban sector of Indian society; many women are employed in all sectors of society and pay equity problems seem to be virtually nonexistent. However, rurally, where 80 per cent of the population lives, it is a different story. For example last year four thousand women were burned because they did not bring enough dowry. These were labelled kitchen accidents and veq little punitive action was taken. AS well, there is no free legal aid for women. Manushi sseks to provide a safe forum for women to speak without fear, raise questions and generate widespread debate. The goals of Manushi are as follows: to bring women’s organizations and activists in touch with one another; to reach women everywhere who want to break out of their passivity and isolation; to encourage systematic collection and dissemination of information about the life situations of women among different communities, castes and classes in different parts of the country, especially women; among rural poor, encourage discussion of strategies for aiding women in their struggle for survival. Manushi contains reporting on women’s lives and work; their struggle for change; analyses of political, economic and social issues; reporting on human rights and minority rights issues and struggles with special emphasis on women’s part in them; interviews, fiction and poetry, etc. Because Manushi is financed solely by individual subscriptions and donations, they lack the resources to purchase their own equipment.

New reproductive

by Andrew Reeves-Hail 38 Computer Engineering

specialto Imprint

Rest easy! Sex is not out of vogue . . . yet. The broad subject of “New Reproductive Technologies” (NRT’s for short) is probably not as new to you as you might think It is just being discussed a lot more now than it has been in the past. It is a subject of equal concern to both males and females. We, as future engineers, will be creating the foundation for our entire physical society. The bridges, the computers, the mines, the chemical plants, the cars, and on and on. We will also be joinin@ our fellow human beings in creating the foundation for our continued existence: babies. Especially if you have a date for the semi-formal. Issues concerning New Reproductive Technologies (NRT’s) can be divided into a few categories: Technology, Ethics/L,egal.ities, Economics, Infertility and Women. The number of question marks used in this article reflect the large gap of knowledge that exists in the field of New Reproductive Technologies. The questions are very pertinent to decisions that are being made today. You, one day, will most likely be a parent. Or perhaps a hopeful parent {what if you are infertile?) It is up to you to help form an acceptable answer to these and other questions.

Technology

Many technologies classified as NRT’s are really not all that new. For example ultrasound, fetal heart monitoring and amniocentesis. Most of these technologies were developed for a particular reason and were intended to be used only in high-risk situations. But, as time progressed, thw developments were used on more people in general settings. Today, for example, 80% of women in Canada have at least one ultrasound performed during each pregnancy. Some people might argue that this shift in a technology’s use has also caused a shift in people’s perceptions: a pregnant woman was considered healthy until shown otherwise; now, because some technologies like ultrasound are common place, that same woman is assumed to have a problem until proven to be healthy. Technologies are able to separate the mother. from the fetus. No longer is it assumed that if the mother is healthy, the unborn baby is too. Procedures in use today are able to monitor the fetus’ health independently from that of the mother. Now, society can argue for the “best interests” of a fetus. Where does a mother stand when the “best interests” of her baby are concerned? In the US there have been legal cases where the mother has not been allowed to refuse the treatment of the fetus even though it meant her undergoing surgery. The technologies of today and tomorrow are even more reaching: genetic manipulation of the fetus, sex selection techniques, embryo experimentation and fetal tissue transplants. Work is already under way in the United States to map the chromosomes and decipher the genetic instructions that make up a human being. In vitro fertilization permits genetic screening and manipulation of embryos. A doctor can tell a mother, today, what the sex of her child will be, if it will have certain physical or mental disabilities or be a carrier of a genetic disorder. What are “undesirable” fetal characteristics? Do only “perfect”

babies have the “right”

to be born? Should the sex of a. baby be zhosen by the parents? By relative? Should prenatal genetic testing be allowed? What are its impacts on the fetus? On the mother? Should scientific research be conducted on embryos? What are the implications of genetic engineering and prenatal diagnosis techniques?

egg that enters the fallopian tube and is fertilized. It must then implant itself in a well developed uterine lining and then develop. _ The causes of infertility may not only be physical but perhaps societal as welL How should infertility be viewed? Is it on the rise? Or, is it just being discussed more openly? Can it be “cured” or prevented? Why were NRT’s developed? Were they developed solely for the ose of alleviating infertility? of these Who contra IF the development NRTS?

Ethics and Lqalities

In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer make it possible for a child to have five “parents”: (1) a biological mother (who contributes the WI (2) a uterine mother (who carries the pregnancy) (3) a social mother (who raises the child) (4) a biological father (who contributes the sperm) (5) a social father (who raises the child) For $10,000 you might hire a woman to have your baby. What if she doesn’t want to give you that baby upon its birth? You take her to court The “Baby M” case was such a court challenge. The original court that heard the case awarded custody to the social parents; the surrogate mother was stripped of all parental rights. A year later, another court overturned this decision and granted lihral visitation rights for the surrogate mother. Joint psychological counselling was ordered to be undertaken by both the surrogat& and the parents for the sake of the child they share. This case alone raises q&&ions such as the legality of surrogate contracts. In Canada, there are no laws governing surrogacy! Who has what rights? Do we have a “right” to reproduce? What are the rights of people using NRT’s? Are people adequately informed of their rights and risks? Do ethical issues change when money is involved? What is done with unused sperm, eggs and embvos’in case of the donor’s death? Or divorce? What level of confidentiality must exist between the different pare& and between them and the child?

Pugwash Conference on New Reproductive by Andrew Reeves-Hall 3B computer Enweering

A woman was kept func@oning by artificial means for 61 days after her death to permit the fetus to reach maturity$he was treated as a reproductive machine. This is an extreme example of how. human reproduction has, come to resemble an industrial complex with seeming little regard for the woman. The mother. To what extent do the various NRT’s create conditions which exploit women. What are the long-term physical, psychological and emotional effects on women by NRT’s? Picking up on the point made earlier about Third World women, we must ask ourselves to wh& extent the sock-economic and ethnic status of women affect their access to NRT procedures. Are women of certam ethnic backgrounds exploited for others? Are some refused the use of NRT’s?

Technologies

A forum for discussion of the questions raised in the accompanying article “No More Sex?” will be held th e weekend of November 3 and 4 here on UW campus. It is open to anyone from any faculty. The host for the conference will be the Waterloo chapter of the Canadian Student Pugwash organization. The weekend will be filled with workshop sessions in which a group of people will talk openly, hely, and as individuals, about various aspects of New Reproductive Technologies (NRT’S). A submission for the Royal Commission on NRT will be prepared from the discussions. The Government of Canada established the Royal Commission in October 1989 to examine the medical and scientific developments as well as their social, ethical, heahh, legal and economic implications. Currently, the Royal Commission is travelkg across Canada to hear opinions of groups, organizations and individuals. On November 2, they will be in bndon. Itis hoped they will attend this Pugwash Conference. If you would like to be involved as a participant and/or to help with the organizing please leave a message in the Pugwash mailbox in the Orifice or call Andrew at 725-5870. c --

Economics

The case of Baby M also m&s the issue of making money from NRT’s. The $10,000 paid to the surrogate mother was only a part of the total fee paid by the social parents. A further $15,000 was paid to the lawyers and agencies who made the arrangements. Obviously not every couple will be able to afford such prices. Some agencies have proposed that women from Third World Countries should be ’ imported to make surrogacy available to more people (the assumption being that these women can be paid less). Should this be allowed? What if your parents told you that you had been “bought”? How would you feel? How . would you feel if you knew your mum had sold a child? (your brother or sister. . . ?) (th&

is bejiore they &come brats and tempiyuu to uffer to pay peclple to get them out of your hair!). Also, who funds research into NRT’s? Who owns the technology? Who is paid for the use of NRT’s? Should ova and semen be sold? For profit? Is emphasis being taken away from other health care areas?

The National Centre for Health Statistics in the United States found that one in twelve couples were Infertile. A couple is usually considered infertile if a pregnancy does not result from intercourse (with no birth control) after trying for a year -or perhaps two. For pregnancy: (1) a male must produce a sufficient amount of normal, healthy sperm. He must also be able to ejaculate them. (2) both the male and female must have intercourse that results in sperm reaching the f&opian tube at just the right time for conception to occur. (3) a female must produce a normal, healthy

Science Solar Aquatics

’

by Phillip Chee Imprint staff

Are living machines a possible solution to help us alleviate the environmental burden that human activities generate? Dr. John Todd, a sev-called “ecological designer”, believes so. Todd’is the director of the Centre for the Protection and Restoration of Waters, in Cape Cod, M’assachusetts. Hi solution to water pollution $oblems and toxic waste disposal are tackled with ecologicaI knowledge. This past May, Harwich, Massachusetts opened an unusual sewage treatment plant developed by Todd and his colIeagues. Unusual because it does not t&e the familiar mechanical devices of the present, machines that contribute pollution while they work. The Harwich Solar Aquatics Septage Treat;’ ment Facility resembles a large greenhouse fiUed with large, translucent, cylindrical tanks full of algae, snails, fish, and plants all floating in the highly toxic waste of septic tanks calIed “septage.”

salt marsh; periods of drying and wetting. During half the day, the marsh is dried and then the other half it is made wet in a cycle of aerobic and anaerobic purification. A divers* flora including umbrella plants, eucalyptus, s&pus, and bulrushes occupying different depths and having different functions form a polyculturaI mix. This mix may remove organic carcinogens by physical break-up or trap heavy metals in roots and stems of trees. The trees can then be replanted for landscaping and the water plants composted and everything is continually recycled. Interestingly, the system is testing the use of plants cailed hyperaccumulators, in an attempt to mine specific metals for re-use as ore grade: silver, mercury, cadmium, and lead for exampte.

In his speech

at the plant’s opening day, he said, “this p@icular sludge is extremely cdncentrated. It’s some 30 to 100 times more concentrated. It’s very, very difficult to treat. This material alstihas in it, because of our bad household practices, a number of heavy . metals and toxic materials which are in them. selves carcinogens. So the idea here is, without the use of hazardous chemicals in the treatment process, to purify these compounds, to try and break up these carcinogens that get into our water, using organisms that have this capability, and to try and shunt out of the water stream metals, using organisms which have this particular talent. And so inside this building are probably over 1,000 species of different kinds of organisms, each of which are working in a constellation to accomplish a task that no single one or small group of organisms could ever do, and that’s the reason why it’s &led ecological engineering. Ecological engineering is really bringing together organisms from the wild and putting them into a new, contained environment to do s&me of the work for society. In the case here, the work is purifying the wastes. So, in a sense, what ecological engineering and solar aquatics really is, is miniaturizing in a high light environment the processes that take place naturally in lakes and streams,. and doing so under controlled conditions so that we can in fact effect something in a matter of days, say ten days here, that would normally take months in the wild.” This is the second prototype now in use. The first one is an 11 metres by,40 metres greenhouse structure capable of treating 150 homes in Providence, Rhode Island. In essence, this facility is an engineered marsh, doing the same work as traditional secondary

plants alljbizting in the highly toxic wuste treatment plants without the use of toxic chemicals and excessive demands on energy. What you get is a group of ginger, fSowers, watercress, fish, snails, clams and herbs and spices taking raw industrial sewage and pumping out pure water. It is divided into three treatment areas, each performing a different task First, the raw sewage is’ treated by a tank of algae, using various organic components as a food source. Their numbers are controlled by snails. Microscopic floating plants use the organic material left by this process. Bacteria, which are also consumed by the snails, continue to treat the substrate and a complex food chain is built up. As the year passes through various seasons, spring water hyacinths are replaced by orchid-like flowers, floating in soapy foam from the treatment of household waste. ‘The contradiction between the treating of waste and the aesthetic is one that we find very interesting and somewhat ironic,” Todd says. Second, a system of eight marshes running in parallel imitates the dynamics of a natural

“I can see the same kind of knowledge being used to produce foods without any environmental degradation, perhaps let’s’ say environmental enhancement. I can see the same kind of living machines to produce fuels for our automobiles, I can see these same types of living machines to regulate our climates, both heating and cooling and air purifications. So in areas of waste, food, fuel and even architecture, one can begin to see the concept of living machines which are contained in gossamer-like environments, with light penetrating everywhere, to function as the work horses. In a sense, for the first time in the history of technology we’re able to acti.AIy miniaturize the process of production and recycling.” In 1976, Todd, a Canadian by birth) convinced the Trudeau government to fund the result of this research, a bioshelter, a building that regulated its own climate and produced its own food and recycled its own waste. The Prince Edward Island Ark was built in Cape Spry, Prince Edward Island and was an experinrental success. Unfortunately, the government was not foresighted enough to continue its funding. Todd however, is optimistic. He believes that once the Gaian idea of the earth being alive gets into the consciousness of people, ecological economies will be possible. It will be easier to believe and live in a system where you feel you belong in. Without it, ecological disaster will destroy everything.

Todd says the facility treats a 120 acre area to advanced wastewater standards that current technology only does to secondary standards. Since the septage is 30 to 100 times more concentrated and harder to treat than sewage, it isslightly more cost effective than , anything else on the market. He also says that no comparisons have been made yet in relation to cost with other fa;cilities,.but he Suspects that the solar aquatics can be built for advanced wastewater treatment for the same price as ordinary secondary treatment plants. The solar aquatics facility is the end result of a lifetime of research by Tcxld on how different organisnis can work together into the concept of a living machine, an ecologically engineered technology. One of the questions that was posed by this research included how could one produce food fbr a small group of people using limited space and renewable energy sources and ecological cycles. Some novel answers followed. Ponds in greenhouses, able to use radiant energy rather than fossil fuefs. Ancient Chinese polyculture ideas and Mayan aquaculture were combined with modem ecology. Predator-prey relationships were studied to avoid the use of pesticides that would kill the fish that were being used. The realization that nature uses pulses to provide energy movement led to the study of tidal marshes and mangroves.

Squeezed into the middle of all this, I was prepared for the jostling I took, but not for the sharp tuggings on my pants leg. I looked down to find a baboon with a toothy, lippy grin fixed on me.

Then, dropping to one knee, he raised his face toward the heavens and spread his arms wide in vaudevillian triumph.

It was there that I first came to feel the full press of the city’s vitality, It began in early morning with the appearance on the street of a teen-age boy riding a bicycle while balancing a tray the size of a surfboard on his head. (I would see him again later that day, still pedalling only this time with loaves of unleavened bread stacked at least two feet high on the tray.) Then, as window after window became filled with light, I heard muted noises, like those of a parade band still three blocks away. Soon, however, it was all cymbals and brass as metal roll-down doors clanged open and buglethroated vendors went to work. By mid-morning the street was clogged. Cars and trucks and donkey carts pried through the crowds, brushing arms and legs.

In the nineties human sexuality and those who endeavour to explore it have been deet some heavy cards, the Mapplethorpe trial for example. But they have been vindicated as well. The two publiiations herein discussed deal with sex, and its various incarnations, and are refreshing in a world that thinks a certain other publication’s forum section is the beail and end-all to contemporary erotic literature. L&do is a quarterly journal which looks similar to those you find in the Dana Porter, but its a little different on the inside. First off, its fun. T?~JournaZ of Sac and Sensibiiity, published in Chicago by journalists Marianna Beck and Jack Hafferkamp, contains essays, short fiction, poetry and pictorials all dealing with some aspect of sex. It was produced to fill the growing egghead lust for “intelligent” erdtic material. And that it does. But let one of the stories speak and see if it can get your home fires cooking: (excerpt from Anne Rampling’s (one of Anne Rice’s pseudonyms) novel in the works Exit lo Eden.

what was then the capital of Egypt, El Fustat. The ropes were strung in a square, about 1200 yards on each side, and on them were attached many bells. At the auspieious moment when the planets were properly aligned in the sky, the bells would be rung as a signal for workmen to start turning the sod for this new seat of government and military power. Less than a miIe tothe west the Nile flowed past, running high, as the

Clearly, this we no time for seizing on good luck and fortune, not with Mars blieved to be raining down a curse of black forebodings. Too late to turn back the devils of the ill omen, it was decided to appease them by naming the place El Qahira (The Victorious) after El Qahir (Mars). So goes the legend. True? Probably not, But for Cairenes to assign the history of their city’s birth to anything less dramatic would be at odds with their bent for the fanciful. Here, even

long dhmed by blackout precautions during the wars with Israel, flash with multi-coloured neon. New tourist buses haul pale platoons of foreign invaders toward Giza’s marvels or the leather and gold bazaars of Khan el-Khalili. Merchants and dragomen, busier than ever, rub their hands and raise their prices. Contemplating the staggering fullness of life in this shuddering metropolis I finished my thimbleful of thick, black brew at the strategic Fishawi’s coffeehouse, across from the centuries-old Al-Azhar Mosque, and pressed through the throng to* decipher the Arabic numerals on the buses. Not finding a bus with the desirable scrawls I flagged an etipty cab. In Cairo a taxi ride is an adventure, a nightmare and a total frustration. ” Wen-Nabi,” my driver pleads “By the Prophet” - and leans on his horn for emphasis. A cyclist balancing a hundred loaves of bread on a tray on. his head eases left, and we squeak between him and a ten-ton Mercedes diesel truck slung with steel pipe. The scream of horns is deafening. We jerk to -a stop inches from a hearse, a road-worn black Ford

Fiats, creaking pushcarts, red buses jammed with commuters who cling stubbornly to any makeshift handle in their attempt to squirm through the seething masses already hanging from the vehicle, past Soviet motorcycles, a horse-drawn wagon heavy with limestone, and now and then a herd of sheep. From sidewalks clogged by spilling shop stalls, noisy coffeehouses, and hawkers of combs and ball-points, pedestrians overflow into the street - laughing school children, old men in long flowing galabias, women in black shawls, office workers oblivious to the perils. Through it all my driver never flinches. His honk, weave, and banter get me back to the university off Tahrir Square on time - not that timing is ever too important in Egypt. My every protestation is answered with a smiling response: ” Malish” - “Never mind” or “Don’t worry.” Africa’s largest city and one of the world’s most crowded, with estimates of 15-20 million inhabitants, Cairo struggles to make room for thousands of newcomers each day - a result of a high birthrate and migration from rural areas. Housing costs are sky high; as many as 10 people sometimes occupy a single room in the poorest districts. Some are forced to live on rooftops; others find a wretched home in one of the city’s cemeteries. How I wondered can all these people live in this madive urban centre? Svre there is character but what about some .peace and quiet, don’t the residents of this city ever crave solitude and serenity? I climbed to the Citadel, a 12th century fortress built by Saladin on the eastern edge of the city, just below the Muqattam HiIls. From there Cairo spreads out across the Nile to the Great Pyramids, faintly visible through the heavily polluted air. Hundreds of mosques thrust their thin, ornate minarets into the sky, over rooftops crowed with people hanging out laundry or cooking meals in the open air above the hubbub of the metropolis. Maybe in a mosque I would find solitude. Returning through the teeming streets, I entered the mosque of Muayyad Shaykh, an island of coolness and peace. High walls decorated

Widows along Suliman rasha are stocked with the finest luxuries: Japanese stereos, Italian shoes, French automobiles. Fashionably dressed shoppers eagerly crowd the stores.

Il%e Bellv of an Architect

Arts/Film

La dolce vita, English style! tagonist has brought his wife LOU&J Over from Chicago, and @though they seem to be getting along fine when we first see them, as soon as they hit Rome they begin to feel the seven-year itch. Kraklite (everyone, even his wife, calls. him by his last name) is obsessive about the project at hand and the unrecqnized figure it celeb,&es, but even more destructively, he is obsessed with his large stomach, which has suddenly begun to pain him. He begins to suspect that his wife is poisoning his food. Meanwhile, Caspasian, a young, thin, Italian architect involved in the exhibition, sets his sights on the comely buisa. Brian Dennehy gives a tour drforce performance as Kraklite. ‘He is by turns lucid, boorish, paranoid, analytical, lost, bear-like; you name it. He fills the screen, even in long shot, (even when the point is his powerlessness) and the movie is unmistakably about him, his mind and his belly; the warring factions of civilization and animalistic urges. The rest of the cast has evidently been directed so that they will all sound cold, detached, uniformly foreign. Even Louisa, played by Chloe Webb (a guest star in the original China Beach episodes) loses her American rhythms early and adopts the floaty vocal patterns of Caspasian (Lambert Wilson). The fib itself has a special rhythm; Kraklite and Louisa “enter Italy” bumping and grinding on a speeding train, but in Rome their life becomes a decadent wade through molasses. Although the scenes are short, the pace established by Greenaway and editor John Wilson is smooth, patient, inexora bie. Underscoring the modern tale is a sense of centuries, maintained through. ‘the CaSUal conversations of the exhibition workers about the pitifully human attributes of Rome’s vanished, onceglorious figures. Kraklite’s The hostility of colleagues toward him and the subject of their show is part of the lupine atmosphere of the film. A wolf comes up to the group of genteel artists and art patrons and tries to steal from their picnic; later, it laps up Kmklite’s vomit. The reference recalls the legend of the origin of Rome, the wolf who suckled Romulus and Remus, and this, combined with the omnipresence of ancient ruins, equates the decline and fall of Stourley Kraklite

Stepbystep,ooohbaby... with the decay from within of the Roman Empire, itself a paradox of refinement and barbarism. Kraklite feeds off of Boullee by scnhiing details of his life, creating his own architectural models to commemorate him, and by recruiting him as an imaginary correspondent. Later, Kraklite Sees that Caspasian’s sister, a photographer, has been spying on him, his wife, and Caspasian in the

explanation that the togas are just towels - yqu probably would have accepted them as togas. Reality doesn’t count for too much; Louisa doesn’t look as pregnant as she’s supposed to be, Kraklite doesn’t bleed Dreaminess is the order of the day, and you don’t trouble yourself about whether with questions Kraklite is a paranoid schizophrenic, whether he’s being gadighbi, or

V& alla spiaggia most private moments, devouring them with her camera in the same kind of gluttonous way. Art becomes a carnivorous activity at times. Greenaway shows us very mixed feelings about art; about its purpose, ethics, and ultimate life-span. At the same time, Kraklite’s obsessivecompulsive behaviour is couched in lovely music by Wirn Wertens and Glenn Branca and stirring visuals by cinematographer Sacha Viemy. The film breathes cla&ical art and architecture; when men appear in Roman togas, you scarcely need the

whether he is inducing physical illness in himself through his men@ state; you just sit back and let yourself be hypnotized. Greenaway certainly knows how to make a film, how to write it and direct it so that it all ties together at some perfect level of your mind that lies below the conscious.

The Belly of an Arch&u never becomes ponderous or hard to swallow. Take Greenaway and Dennehy, sprinkle liberally with a healthy dose of humour and stir well. This film is a feast to be savoured.

This fairly recent release while filmed somewhat professionally contains many obvious, low-budget sequences, the best one being replacing a girl with a mannequin just before impact with a Mack truck. The wig and head fly off and nobody’s fooled for a second. Originality is prevalent at times with the ridic+ous methods that Angela, certainly not your average camp counselor, uses to do in her peers. Running someone over with a lavower tops the list while watching her kill someone with a stick is a riot. As well, the way below average I.Q. of every character makes this movie amusing if not in the least bit frightening. Mountaintop

This film has to the most pathetic of the bunch. It has nothing going for it except a funny name, a really cheap cover {with eye balls that look like marbles), bad filming (it looks like it’s done on a camcorder), bad editing and bad effects (mannequin limbs and ketchup), bad acting, bad acting and more bad acting. But what makes thii movie so bad is what makes it the best of the worst. When I first watched this movie (and I use that term loosely) with my friends we laughed harder than we had at any comedy in years.

Apparently, the stupid Canadian ratings board would have slapped an X-rating on Hardware due to the violent nature of the film. This would have resulted in ‘yotirs truly having to search for a seat in an “adult” theater to see a sci-fi horror movie. Or the film simply would have been unavailable. By cutting 3-4 seconds, Hardware became “acceptable” as an R-rated film. The same sort of idiocy has happened with WildAt Heart and several other films lately. How much of a difference can three seconds make? These 3-4 seconds seem to have been cut out of the gore scenes, rather than the love making scenes. Specifically, a scene where the Mark-

Scary Planet, illustrate a JBC caught in an important cross-roads. The Conspiracy is now setting about recording albums, not singles. They have been doing this for a while, but met with little success until recently. Cult exhibits this clearly: it is an integral whole, full of pieces supporting each other. bY J* mFY rmprint staff

Imagine if you will a Canada in the future. Free trade is twisted into a bizikre deal creating a situation in which Quebec trades Rene Simard for Michael Bolton. Due to the strict province, language laws in la belle Bolton must now compose, play and sing in French. You need not imagine it, this nightmare exists for your aural horror. It’s called Motion, and it should rightly have sickness after the title.

Sometimes incongruous efforts pass themselves off as brilliant: tentative works of art that succeed’ in imparting a message and meaning as wonderfully as the music itself sounds. Sometimes. But sometimes scatter-brained projects are simply revealed as such. Cult of theBizsement contains both such traits. Call it a very fIawed masterpiece.

Now what J., you might say, is so vile about this album? Is it that not only are all the lyrics in French but the liner notes too? No, I think French is a swell lingo. Then is it the tiger’ ripofflexcuse for a front cover? No, I think a return to futurist/modernist technique in albums is necessary to the rebirth of the Canadian recording mdustrv. Then is it the blatant imitac ing of- an American who badly imitates white guys from the sixties whd imitated black soul dudes? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! Add to this the fact that you don’t even notice the lyrics are being sung in another language and you get nineties answer to Myzak, via Montreal. The only really good thing about this band is they don’t come from Toronto, and the producer’s nickname is Baz. But, if titles like, “Sur quai des reves”, “Y’a quelqu’un lahaut,” or ‘“Tant besoin d’aimer” get your knickers in a knot then try these guys out. You could do worse. You could leave your first born alone with me for a couple of hours. HA, ha, ha, ha, bee, ha, hee, ha. . . I-IL . HA!

Its flaws lay not in the direction of Fishcotque, which presented a few good songs within the showcase of utter boredom. Nay, Cult’s short comings stem from an ambition that the Jazz Butcher Conspiracy (JBC) have neglected since Sex and Travel: the idea of the album as an organic unit. In short, the JBC have ventured near the concept-album again. Not epic in

But 1 can’t help but feel that the approach that they took ‘this time leaves me a little disappointed. I can’t quite figure out why. Perhaps Pat took a little too much pop out of his sound.

Half key could show Eric Clapton a thing or two, while Ferrer is the only drummer I’ve ever heard who’s knocked Keith Moon from the top of my list.

The name of the band is Technotronic, and the accent is definitely on the TECHNO. This album is a collection of the singles released by this technofunk band, remixed for all those who didn’t get enough the first time around.

the Dying marks the

ninth album for one of the world’s most influential heavy metal rock bands, Iron Maiden. iron Maiden fizzled in the latter half of the eighties, but rebound back to the old style with this gem. The new release is no Number of the Beat (1982), but it is a great improvement over its predecessor, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (1988). This time ‘round, the 10 tracks were not overtampered with or drowned in lavish arrangements, just a solid flow of Maiden mastery. The new album features the guitar wizardry of new Maiden member Janick hers, and is produced once again by Martin Bin&, who guarantees Iron Maiden’s patented forceful and aggressive souid. “We got together in January to start writing intending to go into Battery studios in London to record in midApril,“said bass guitarist and premier s&g writer Steve Harris in a recent interview. “But everyone was so fired up not having played together in so long and everything came together so quickly and brilliantly with Janick, we were ready to start in February.”

about the song is that it’s a love song a Ia “Have You Seen Her,” only it’s a him, and it sucks, The sampling is completely devoid of any originality. Three or four samples are used in almost every song, so literally, the only way you can tell the songs apart is from the breaks between the songs. So do I hate this music, yes. However, if your life is ont the line, and you have to find some music that you can dance to, I guess this’ll do.

Bring your daughter to the slaughter The most captivating track on the album in my opinion is “Bring Your Daughter.. . To The Slaughter”. This hard-driving track h& some of the most controversial Maiden lyrics ever written, which; are 1sure \tosend the right-wing fen&&s to th&r gun closets. Other beauties on the album are “Mother Russia,““Tailgunner,““Fates Warning” and “Run Silent, Run Deep.” The tracks which fail to deliver the goods are “No Prayer for the’ Dying,” “Public Enema Number One,” and “Hooks In You.” A North American tour to promote the album is planned for May of 1991, which follows a grueling ‘sweep through 54 arena co&erts gl7 Eurdpean countries. With 25 million albums sold worldwide, spawning countless gold and platinum discs, Iron Maiden is sure to please their legions’of fans once again.

The UW football Warriors were eliminated from the playoffs on Saturday as they lost “The Battle of Waterloo” to the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks, 28-9, before a packed house at Seagram Stadium. Waterloo’s record dropped to 2-4, sixth in the eight-team OUAA conference, while the Golden Hawks still have a chance at post-season play with one game left. In other OUAA action on the weekend, Toronto whipped Windsor 40-2, Western dumped Guelph 35-3, and York won the Futility Bowl by losing to McMaster 25-4. Western (6-O), Toronto (5-l), and Windsor (4-2) have all made the playoffs. The Golden, Hawks (3-3) could grab the fourth and final playoff berth if they beat Guelph (also 3-3) Waterloo (2-4), this Saturday. McMaster (l-5), and York (O-6) cannot catch the leaders. “We were extremely disappointed,” said Warrior head coach Dave “Tuffy” Knight regarding the loss. “I thought we played one of our worst games of the season. The problem was that we didn’t enter the game in the right frame of mind. We reverted back to animal instinct and forgot things that were taught in day one.” The Warriors could not penetrate a much stronger Laurier defensive line and the Golden Hawks kept to a fairly successful passing game. WLU had 16 first downs compared to a measly three by Waterloo. Laurier collected 441 yards of net offence, 367 of that on the pass. Unfortunately, the Warriors accumulated a total of only 176 offensive yards: 125 on the ground and 73 in the air. Early in the game, third-year running back Tom Chartier passed former Warrior Dick Aldridge to become the all-time leading rusher in the UW record books. Chartier, the

Freshman pivot Bill Kubas threw an 18yard touchdown pass to sophomore Brent Stucke and then taiIback Andy Cecchini scored another major on a Z-yard run.

The Warrior rugby team won their inal game of the Season last Saturday, peating the lowly Laurier Golden iawks, 6-4. Waterloo finishes with a 3-4 record, good for fourth place in he six-team Division I.

Showing the significance bf the Waterloo - Laurier game, the referee did not show up. So, Warrior assistant roach Glenn Harper had to step into a big pair of shoes and officiate the natch. This placed him in a tough msition.

In the first half, the LJW forwards rucked well and provided good position and possession of the ball. The backs ran effectively against a less skilIed Iaurier back-line. Waterloo forwards dominated the strums, anchored by the front row of Dave Stone, Drew Davidson, and Paul Avbar. The Warriors opened the scoring

Waterloo then showed some inexperience when a fumbled ball was chased by Laurier, and a Waterloo player interfered with the Laurier back. A penalty try was awarded. The convert was missed, and the score remained 6-4. Waterloo had another scoring chance when Keith Peck, supporting a Waterloo break, engineered by second-row players Doug Milbum -and Anthony Beattie, danced gracefully up the sidelines and dived into the endzone. Unfortunately, he fumbled the ball as he crossed the he. The game marked the departure of number-eight Paul Toon, fullback Peter Keir, and utility forward Dave Stone.

Cagers drop exhibition opener 89-83 . Warrior Basketball by Rich Nichol Imprint staff

You never know what to expect from any newly formed team going into it’s first pre-season game. Waterloo’s basketball Warriors made their 1990-91 exhibition debut last Sunday with a disappointing 8983 loss at the hands of the Toronto Varsity Biues last Sunday afternoon at the PAC. The contest was fast paced, despite the fact that both teams milked, the clock down to under ten seconds with every possession- But it was also a sloppy game as both sides combined for over 100 turnovers. “We were a little rusty. It was a typical pre-season opener,” said Warrior head coach Don McCrae. “We got caught in phases where they ran away from us. The score may have flattered us, as we didn’t play that well. There are still a lot of questions which we have to answer before the season starts.” “On the positive side, we had a good performance from Jason Poag and a great start for our rookie Sean VanKoughnett with 27 points,” said McCrae. Toronto jumped out to a quick ZO11 lead in the first eight minutes, spearheaded by the dominance of team leader Rob Wilson in the paint. The Warriors kept pace with U of T to the half, behind 48-38. The Blues widened the gap midway through the second half, but a late rally by Waterloo made the score more respectable for the host squad. UW went 3-for-13 from threepoint range, shot a forgivable 41 per-

paratively, Toronto canned 53 percent from the hardwood and 60 percent at the gift box. Wilson, a possible All-Canadian nominee, led all scorers with 31 points. VanKoughnett paced the &tack for the Warriors with 27 points (including three treys) and seven rebounds, and logged an exhausting 33 minutes on the court Other Warriors in the double digits were quick-footed sophomore guard Mike Duarte with 14 points and spidery third-year player Jason Poag with 12 points. The black and gold are on the road for the next two weeks. They participate in the Winnipeg Invitational Tournament this weekend with York, Lakehead, and the host squad Winnipeg. On Friday, -November 2, Waterloo plays York with a tip-off time of 8 pm in North York. The Warriors’ next home games will be when they host the prestigious Naismith Classic Basketball Toumament homecoming weekend,

November 9-11. As was mentioned last week, the eight participating teams are Winnipeg, Guelpb, Laurier, cent from the field, and tossed in 64 percent at the free-throw line. Com-

24-28.

This weekend in league play, the ithenas were scheduled to face the jowerful University of Toronto Var;ity Blues. The Toronto team fielded a lineup itacked with members of the junior mtional and provincial teams. The inal score is not important. Suffice it :o say that the Athenas lost (7-nil buttkicking by the Blues - sports ed.), and :ount the game as a _ learning experience.

In the first game versus McGill, a goal by Annette Koehler gave Waterloo the lead. McGill r&hated with their own goal to even the score. The second half saw a goal from Janet McPherson, and the Athenas led again Strong play for the remainder of the game left the final score at 2-l in favour of the Athenas. The team continued to play with vigour in game two. The initial goal, off a penalty comer was by Koehler. Soon afterwards, McPherson reacted quickly on a cross and basebaIled the

ball into the net. This happened so fast, McpPherson’s own teammates were unable to tell how the ball ended up on the back board. Waterloo shutdown Trent 2-O and finished fourth in the ten team round-robin competition. So, the Athenas, much to their relief were able to report their successes to absent Coach McCrae. Although many adjustments were made with positional play due to injury and absence, the team was able to adapt. Thanks to substitute coaches L&a Bauer and Sharon Creehnan for their support. The Athenas depart on Thursday for Ottawa so they can begin final play on Friday against the Queen’s Golden Gaels in the OWIAA Championships.

Most LJW crews were able to improve their standing in relation to some of their opponents, ending a most interesting week of training. The Heavy 4 was first to race, and was given instructions to correct its course by the sta$er as he was calling he race. This meant that all of the Ither crews were able to get off the starting line, and most had gone 3Om pefore UW took a stroke.

In other races, the men’s Double was able to continue to make up ground on their Trent counterparts. Losing by only 4 seconds, the crew pushed Trent to the maximum. This crew has been one of the more pleasant surprises, as neither rowed before this September. The Lightweight 4 had starting problems, as well, colliding with Erindale. The crew was able to recover, and pulled hard, but came in 6th one length behind Trent.

Amidst the final vestiges of the late Indian -summer, the soccer Athenas visited Hamilton on Wednesday, October 37, and hosted the Wilfred I-aurier Golden Hawks on Saturday, October 20 at the Columbia fields. The euphoria experienced after the previous weekend’s win over Western and tie with Guelph was absent as Waterloo suffered a frustrating 2-nil loss to the Mac Marauder squad, despite playing a strong

a he&d start on the Lightweight women’s 4 race. At the finish line, they were still able to hold off 2 of the 4 crews entered. UW participated in one more race. The coaches were able to secure an 8 from Western, which allowed for both men’s sweep crews to race as one. It was fun because few of the guys have raced 8’s seriously, and three never rowed one before. After about 30 minutes of practice, UW took its place beside 7 0th~ boats that were much more diperienced racing this type of shell, only the U of T and Western Varsity lightweight crews were faster as the ultimate throwtogether boat dominated over Trent, RMC, Mac, Western #2, and Erindale. It was the surprise of the regatta, and a great experience for all in the boat. Tomorrow, October 27, marks the championship regatta, to be held at Henley Island, St. Catherines. All of the sculling events should be finals only, with UW looking to figure prominently in all of them. The sweep races will much more difficult, but UW should still qual@ at least one crew into the finals. It will be a fine end to a season that has seen Waterloo become more competitive with the established rowing schools.

Hockey season

by Rich Nichol Imprint staff The Waterloo hockey Warriors began their 1990-91 season on a positive note with a- 3-l win over the Toronto Varsity Blues in Smogville. Waterloo took the early lead with two gods in the first period. The first goal came at 9% on a shot by center Tony Crisp, assisted by John Williams and Rod Thacker. Then, just 32 seconds before the first break, fourthyear center Clark Day capitalized on a setup by rookie teammates Ken Feddema and Jeff Ballantyne. Neither team could score in the fast-paced second period, which featured the stonewall goaltending of rookie Steve Udvari. Five minutes into the third period, Jan-tie Maki drained one, assisted by freshman defencemen Kevin Falesy and Ballantyne, to widen the gap to 3-0. Finally, with 5:19 left in the game, Toronto broke Udvari’s shutout to make the final score a respectable 31. “Steve Udvari had thenumber 1 on his shirt tonight and for a while we thought it was Mike Bishop,” joked Warrior head coach Don McKee after the game. ‘Performances like that will cause us tb forget about our gr&at AlICanadian goaltender.” The shots on goal in the game were 46-25 in Waterloo’s favor.

The Indiana Pacers’ three game preseason pilgrimage to Canada ended with a 139-l 21 victory over the Houston Rockets. Kitchener Memorial Auditorium was barely a third full as huge admission prices chased away fans. The empty seats, uneducated fans and taped enthusiasm boosters reinforced insipid first quarter play by both squads. There were no defensive struggles as both teams relied heavily upon transition offense up and down the University of Toronto Varsity Blues hardwood installed over the ice. There were the requisite slam crams by of course Akeem Olajuwon and monster meat, James CaldwelI (6w, 266 lbs.). With ten minutes to go in the half, the Pacers led by Detlef Schrempf had knotted the game at 40-all Indiana and Houston ran the court, exchanging baskets, till the Pacers applied full court pressure with 6:45 gone in the frame. The Pacers’ Reggie Miller was fouled just before the buzzer by Sleepy Floyd. Miller missed the conversion to bring Indiana within one. At the half, the Rockets led 71-69. LasalIe Thompson put Indiana into the lead at the 2:32 mark of the third quarter, 77-75. Chuck Person began to take control of the Pacers’ offense knotting the game at 86. Indiana opened the fourth quarter leading 100-98 and began to apply defensive pressure as Olajuwon was sitting on the bench. The Pacers

With five minutes to play in the game, Houston was held to six points, and Indiana built their insurmountable lead to 124-104. The teams traded transition bas-

kets to close out the game. With perhaps a $10 adm& Memorial Auditorium would have been filled and merited the NBA hoopla. Instead, at $25 - $31, the frozen seats betrayed a promoter interested in short term snacking on scarce entertainment dollars.

altered the course to provide the runners with more mud and hills. The Athenas and Warriors both took 6th place in the team competitions. Individually, Marci Aitken (17:26 for 4.4km) was the top Athena finishing in 7th in the interuniversity competition. Other Athenas figuring in the team scoring were Kelly McHale, 1lth; Margaret Barnes, 23rd; Fiona Griffiths, 25th; and Magic Navaleza, 30th. Daralyn Bates, Lisa Whiting and Louise Touqnard also gave strong performances for the Athenas. Bob Hooper of U of T led the men’s competition from start to finish, the forum for yet another Strong performance by rookie Tom Rand who finished 16th (28:51 for 8.2km). Other Warriors competing were David Thompson, 16th; Paul Sudlow, Zlst; Scott McDonald, 28th; Dave Frake, 31st; Scott Nichol, and Darryl Bush. The Laurier nieet was the final marker in the selection process for the team to compete at the OUAA championsl-+p this weekend. The Warrior team representatives will be Tom Rand, Mark Ferguson, Jeff Barrett, Dave Thompson, Paul sudlow, Willie Bassin, Brian Hagemeier,. and Scott McDonald. The Athenas are Jill Francis, Marci Aitken, Kelly McHale, Margaret Barnes, Fiona Griffiths, Magic Navaleza, Nancy Calder, and Daralyn Bates. The mostly rookie men’s team will be hard pressed to crack the top five teams in the competitive OUAA. The Athenas took the bronze medal at the C.I.A.U.‘s last year, with Frticis achieving All-Canadian status for her seventh place finish.

The team was hoping to build on its stunning victory from the previous day. As a result, the players came out flying with veteran mid6ielder Nazti Sacooi dazzling the crowd with a brilliant individual effort. Sacoor danced his way past a number of stunned defenders before pushing the ball by the keeper. Unfortunately, defensive lapses in the final ten minutes allowed the twice.

PM.TOVISITuw (PC) WATERLOO) In a surprise move, the local PM (PC FACTORY Manag&) has announced that PC FACTORY will set up shop in the Campus Centre for two whole days. “That’s right,” the unidentified PM said loday, “Thursday, November 1, and Friday, November 2 we’re going to bring in a complete range of computers, computer systems, and peripherals.

AS HOAX. (PC) WATERLOO. Recent claims made in various PC FACTORY ADS (including this one) have been challenged by local anonymous authorities. “These people are making outrageous claims about offering ‘free sex’ when they are doing nothing of the sort”, said an unidentified spokesperson for Advertising Overview, a local truth in advertising watchdog. “What they are really offering is a free condom to people who come to their display at the Campus Centre,” said the source, “and that’s a completely different thing.” , But an unidentified PC FACTORY spokesperson disputes this. According to him/her, “I am willing to stand behind these ads. Condoms have a pretty clear connection with sex. And they are free. That’s good enough for me.” Interviews conducted this week with UW students tended to support the PC FACTORY view. 56% of students expressed “general agreement” with the claim that giving away free condoms amounts in a round-about-way to “free sex”. 28% thought this was nonsense. 24% were undecided. Polls of this sort are accurate to within plus or minus 5%, 19 times out of 20. When asked for his/her opinion on the matter, an unidentified ’ philosophy grad student said, “It seems to me we have a logical problem here. Beyond that I have no commnt.” ’
