Two hundred md fSty students from Quebec and Ontario joined together to shut down the External Affairs office last Monday, January 21. Of the 36 from Waterloo, 26chose to risk arrest to cIose the building, of a total of 157 who risked arrest. Students stood or sat in tront ot tne doors from 790 am until 1290 noon, when the building was declared officially closed by senior External Affkirs officers. One worker, on learning that she would have to cross a blockade to get to work, decided to join the protest Others were more determined, and police cleared paths for them by pushing protesters off the steps. The Ottawa Police, Ontario Provincial Police, and Royal Canadian Mounted Police were there to escort workers. While all the students who blockaded the doors were risking arrest, only five students were arrested for various offences. One was taken away after he chalked anti-war messages on the steel wall,

Other &dents who chose not to risk arrest handed out leaflets, took pictures, and monitored the situation. The organization which set up the blockade, Alliance for Non-Violent A&m (ANYA), wanted both sup-
portem and blockaders to make sure there were witnesses, and to keep up the spirits of those resisting arrest, The organjzers of the protest were expecting the police, as they had notified the External Affairs office.

I’he proposal was divided betweer north and south of Columbia Street The south campus development plan focu&d on the necessity to maintain the “IO-minute walking distance circle” in order for the campus to be accessible by students and faculty alike. With this in mind, any new buildings for the faculties at the university would be built in existing parking lots. The most promising parking lot is that which exists beside the Biology 1 building.

“I’d also like to concentrate on publicity of the Federation,” Millard continued. “This is a very decentralized campus.

Much ink has been spilled recently about the issue of accessibility to postsecondar)i education. The Canadian and Ontario Federations of Students believe that post-secondary education should be accessible to all Canadians without discrimination on socio-economic, linguistic’ or cultural grounds. This article will the first in a series which focuses on the issue of accessibility. The OFS and CFS have identified sever4 barriers to accessibility, the most controversial being rising tuition fees. Both organizations feel that all tuition and user fees should be eventually eliminated, since these undermine the tenet that postsecondary education should be available to all. The financial burden students face is most apparent when studying the c&nections between social class and university access. The financial barriers exist even before a person enters university. The cost of luition is a deterrent, since many students come from average and low-income backgrounds and sadly give up on their intent to attehd university upon realizing that they cannot support themselves and/or their families on the available funding. Furthermore, after enrolling, those who have made it are still anxious about the funding from the gbvernment. This money sometimes comes weeks after registration, so many students cannot buy food or textbooks, and they’ find it difficult to feel like a student. They wonder if they have tried too hard to escape their life scripts, scripts that suggested in many complex ways that university was not for them. As the costs of housing, food, and childcare mount, and as students contemplate rising debt burdens . approximately $lO,OOP for single students and $20,000 for parents by
the end of a bachelor’s degree - they also wonder if university is for them. All but the essentials are foregone; computers, for example, are out of the question for most students. To ask students, who are already struggling to meet the costs of tuition, textbooks, and living expenses, to pay higher tuition fees is ludicrous. The extra capital needed to achieve a higher quality of education must not come from students, but from the government. Students have played their part in combatting the present underfunding crisis in our colleges and universities. Where is the commitment from the government? Percentage increases each year in tuition (eight per cent for 1990-91) have paralleled or exceeded inflation in most years since the late 197Os, with adverse effect upon accessibility. In contrast, the increases in government operating grants per student have been below the inflation level for mo$t years in the same period. The level of operating grants per student has steadily droppedbehind, and is now 16 per cent lower, in constant dolla&, than it was in 1977-78. The federal and provincial governments must make a financial commitment to improving the qualityof education so that students of today and the students of the future will be able to maintain the level of education other students in the world enjoy. The issues of class combine with the issue of gender, physical ability, and race and ethnic@ to reduce a multiple jeopardy. The stu x ent financial aid programs are barrier to accessibility as well. 1 hope to present to you the differing views surrounding the complex issue of accessibility in the next two months. If you would like more information about anything that I write, please contact me in the Federation of Students office in CC 235.

World Rehg-ion forum at UW Michael H. Clifton .print staff In the midst of widespread ago&ing over the issues surrounding war in the Persian Gulf come voices professing peace and the unity of humankind. Such was the message generally espoused by participating speakers in the World Religion Day forum, held Monday evening in +e Davis Centre. Speakers represented five differing religious groups: Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism, Christianity, and the Baha’i faith. No representative from
Judaism was located in time for this conference. The speaker for Christianity explained in part the Judaic foundations of his religion Most speakers summarized the history of the development of their beliefs. Through quotations from holy books, prcye&and discussions of rktoral principles they explaified what those beliefs are. The focus of the meeting. which included short lectures and a quick question and answer period, was the unity of religious objectives, the oneness of God, and the subsequent unity of humanity as God’s creatures. The meeting chairp&son requested
that the Gulf War be excluded
as a dis-
topic. When the topic did come up, it was encouraged that discussions continue afterward, outside cussion
of the meeting.
At the meeting’s
conclusion
the
audience was asked whether they would like to have more such con-

Forum highlights Hinduism: Hinduism has existed at least since the producing of the R@ tit%7 around B.C. 4500. Another text, Geeta, discusses allegorically the war between good and evil, and what one must know or do to overcome the evil. Built on a belief in the reinctiation of the spirit, Hindus believe that present*actions will affect their future conditions. Thus they seek to do as much good as they can in life, although a requirement of true goodness is the elimirration of selfish objectives, even personal salvation. Goodness also includes tolerance toward other religious ideas, meditation on the Divine, realization of the Divine in others, complete surrender to the Divine, doing occupations as if for God, and treating others as if they were yourself. Christianity: based on the religion of the Hdy Bible, Christianity believes that the incarnation of God as Jesus Christ was the fuEllment of the Jewish hope for the coming of a Me&ah to’ save the world. Jesus’ great work was to redeem all humankind from the effects of their tidividual wrong doings. A &rent trend in Christian ideology is Liberation Theology, emphasized by thirdworld Christian leaders, such as froti South American churches. They pick up on Jesus’ many references to the love of God for the poor (such as the parable of Lazarus and the rich man) and the oppressed. Christians are encouraged to develop compassion, in imitation of Christ, and to remember that Christ was not afraid to oppose “norms” in his day which contradicted the loving will of God. Islam: the term ‘%lam”comes from the arabic word for “submission” signifying those who actively submit to God’s will, The whole universe is in passive submission to God’s will, but humans have the faculty of freedom and are thus capable of choosing whether or not to submit. All peopte in all religions who submit to Gc$s will are, in that sense, ,Muslims. However, only in Islam is the account of God’s will complete, or perfect. Of alI religious books, only
the Qumn has been maintained as it was revealed directly from heaven (from the angel Gabriel to the pre phet Muhammad, ca. 600 AD.). The basic worship of the faith includes frequent prayers, giving to the poor, periods of fasting, and pilgrimages to ‘the Ka’bah, believed to be the first house built for the worship of God by Abraham and his son Ishmael. The practices encourage faith, temperance, compassion, and most of all, submission. Sikhism: the foundation of Sikhism was not initially a religious movement. The first Sikh guru, living 1469-1538 AD., travelled throughout Asii speaking with philosophers and kings, learning the ways of the world. He protested against the high expenses involved in the Hindu rituals at that time. The poor would often need to sell their very livelihoods in order to afford the ritual elements. He protested first to God, asking why He/ She did nothing to relieve the poor. Ultimately he aimed at refocussing religion on the heart rather than on ritual actions. The first guru’s sayings are preserved in a large volume. He emphasized the injustice involved in discriminatory treatment of women, the unity of all people as sufferers in the same world and dependent on the same God, and the necessity of humility and justice.j BahaT In the nineteenth century came’ Baha’uTlah, the Latest of God s messengers whom he sends in each age of human existence. He declared his presence in 1863, and ascended in 1892. The central message he delivered was that as God is one, we are all one in God. The similarities we share physically are representative of the more absolute sameness tie have spiritually. It is only possible for us to experience oneness in fellowship, however, if we first capture the vision of that oneness. BahaTUah teaches a new order which ought to run the world, which would do away with all discord, strife, war, and inequality. The foundation of this system is love

6 Imprint, Friday, January 25, 1991
Arguing Two weeks ago, in the January 11 issue, cover story was an analysis of the Persian Gulf conflict, openly critical of U.S. policy. Similar comment pieces appeared in last week’s issue (January IS), as well as articles questioning Canada’s role in the crisis. It should be noted, though, that there exists at Imprint no oBkiai~ditoria1 stance against the Gulf war. However, the staff of the paper has been in uncharacteristic agreement over the issue, so that in effect hnprht may seem to stand united in its opposition to the war. Therefore, the presence of a particular advertisement in last week’s paper was cause for some concern among staffers. The ad on page 30 of the January 18 issue - was a recruitment pitch for, of all things, the Canadian Armed Forces. ‘There’s an exciting new world of challenges waiting for you,” reads the copy, while the graphic depicts a tank beginning a long desert trek. Wmmmm. _ LJnsqxisingly, the ad was the source of much debate at iast week’s staff meeting. While I think it’s safe to say that the entire Imprint staff was pretty disgusted at the ad’s content, it was a little disturbing to see how many staffers felt that we should simply ban all such advertisements. What follows is a rundown of some of the arguments that passed back and fotih at that meeting. Imprint’s
Scuds made of wood We now can transmit images of war as it happens. Live. And in colour. If they aren’t prevented by censors. Censors are just one of the many peculiar things about this war, The military’s briefing to the press are particularly annoying. They speak another language. There is no enemy, there is “interference.” And so on. Doublespeak, doubletalk, obfuscation, et cetera. Not actually using the word kill’ is more pleasant, I suppose. Speaking in vagueness is in vogue. Keeps us from&nking that war is what it is. The military thinks it’s a “mission” or a “eonflick” They’ve not only brainwashed us, but themselves as well. There is some hilarity in the past week’s events, if you have a sense of humor. After some thousand “sorties” (read: bombings), officialdom has revealed that their high-tech missiles have been knocking out wooden decoys of SCUD missile launchers. . LO and behold, Hussein is an intelligent being, aside from a well-known human rights violator. Last Sunday, the TV program 60 Minutes devoted their whole show to issues about, and arising out of this war. One segment examined the possibility ‘that Hussein plans to dump a gigillian gallons of oil into the gulf and blow up every oil we,ll in Kuwait. Interviewed for their expert opinions were Carl Sagan and two others I had never heard of. Carl predicted massive crop failure, climate change, and so on. Of the other two experts, one worked for a government

First of all, many staffers felt that by &ning the ad, the paper was supporting - at the very least, condoning - the war effort. This view doesn’t really hold much water, though, when you consider the amount of anti-Gulf war articles that the Imprint has published in recent weeks. Any perceived support for the war in running the ad is surely undone by the content of the paper as a whole. But by accepting advertising revenue from the Department of National Defense, argued some, we are making money from the war effort, even if we aren’t condoning it. Well, bear in mind that Imprint is .a strictly nonprofit organization. Any money the paper makes immediately goes back into its production; no-one is lining their pockets with the blood of dead fighter-pilots. Indeed, the revenue we receive from the ad helps us to continue critic&g the values it represents. But aren? we then being hypocritical and unfair to the advertiser, by accepting their ad while undermining its message elsewhere in the paper? Well, no. One would assume that the DND would invest a little research into their IMArkets, and would realize that the student press is not among their biggest supporters. In any case, Imprint has certainly made
no attempt to conceal the viewpoints its contributors have expressed. If the DND wishes to advertise in a-market that diey should know is less than receptive, that’s their funeral. Some staffers felt that the particular content of the ad (the desert motif), together with its rather bizarre timing (two days after the first strike on Baghdad) warranted its removal. Of course, both the nature of the&d and its timing are incidental. If the DND wants to run an ad reading “Come Kick Some Iraqi Butt with Us,“they should have that right. It would be very dangerous for the staff of a newspaper to begin censoring material simply liecause &y do not agree with the ideastxpressed. It is important to remember that the ad in no way contradicts Imprint’s policies and procedures with regards to content. It was reviled so thoroughly simply because the Imprint staff does not support the Gulf War, and we perceived the ad as a pitch to go fight. However, a ‘#boycott” of DND advertising would have no basis other than the unpopularity of their message. “Boycott” in this case would mean “censorship,” which is the enemy of any open-minded publication.

Iraq is considered a Third World Nation by the World Bank, the IMF, and the United Nations. - it has a per capita GNP of $US 1000 per annum (about one-tenth to one-twelfth of Canada) - less than 50 per cent of children even attend primary school infant mortality is 45 per 1000 live births (Canada’s is 8 per 1000) - has not met debt payments since 1983 - has a debt roughly double that of Canada ($US 65 billion vs. 34 billion), but in context of smaller economy Mason elaborates: Iraq is not rich or abundant in natural resources. “Iraq is virtually totally dependent on exports of petroleum” (The Middle East department and the other one was paid directly-by the government to study what could result if all this were to happen.

Iraq’s standard of living is only “relatively high“ compared to non-industrialized nations, like Egypt. It is low compared to Wes- ’ tern nations, or even Kuwait. . The massive Iraqi armed forces are not a testament to their wealth. It is more a testament to the short-sightedness of many nations in supplying weapons on credit (or for free). For example Iraq’s Scud missiles. were given to them by the Soviet Union. Iraq did attempt to solve its problems peacefully.

This is what we want To the editor, I have heard people a& “What do the Natives want?” or “What do we do with them?“As if we, the Native people of Canada, need or want the Settlers to decide what to do with us. Iast time something was “done with us,” Canada developed a reserve system, graciously granting us land that was aheady our own. A major desire of the Native people and their leaders is to be admitted to constitutional debates. Native people wish to be recognized as a distinct society and one of the three founding nations of Canada. Mainly, we want to be treated as equals within the constitutional forum. The Assembly of First Nations (AFN) put forward nine objectives, in 1986, at the meeting of First Ministers: 1. Deletion of the word “existing” from S.35 (1) Constitution Act 1982. “Existing” aboriginal rights are yet to be defined. With this deletion, aboriginal rights would no longer be subject to conditions imposed by the Federal government during negotiations. 2. Explicit recognition of First Nations’ title (an aboriginal right) to land. 3. Explicit guarantee of abdriginal and treaty rights. 4. Explicit recognition of First Nations’right to self-government (an aboriginal right). 5. Commitment to a process to clarify juris dictions of First Nations’ Governments. 6. Provision of fiscal resources for First Nations’ Governments. 7. Commitment to treaty renegotiation at option of First Nations’ Governments. 8. Provision for the democratic right of First Nations to consent to amendments affecting aboriginal rights, especially transfer or extinction; treaty rights; and governmental relationships. 9. Provision for enforcement and remedies.

stand and that at Oka were about respect- Mr. Bacogeorge, in the June 23, 1990 edition of the Sault Star states that, ‘X’s about people respecting themselves, or eaming respect, or demanding respect, or receiving respect from non-aboriginal people.” The violence at Oka was unfortunate, but it has called attention to the plight of natives across Canada and united us. Harper’s stand was the beginning, Oka a the Colonial continuation, eventudly Government may come to terms with its past and present acts. The renewal of Native selfrespect is here, whether the Government likes it or not. Also, Bakogeorge points out that the Aboriginal people of Canada are at the point that Quebec was at before the “Quiet Revolution.” Natives are trying to build their society and economy. lf Canada fails to come to terms with Aboriginal issues, Aboriginals may move in a similar way to Quebec.

This may be so, but UW Security alid Speedy Towing and Recovery are very cap able of drawing it from impoverished students’ pockets. One presumes that in this new humanitarian age, figures of authority and near-authority would practice what they reach. While I was kindly donating a pint of fl lood at the CC, UW Security and their everfaithful sidekicks (see above) decided that this was an opportune time (around lpm) to tow all cars near the CC. Why not, orily half of the cars parked out there belong to people donating blood. As we cannot expect vultures to lay
off stagnant flesh; I should have found it no surp&e to find my car missing from the VI Culde-Sac. It should be noted that I have found at most times this Culde-Sac to be locked up, and as it was not, and not having ever sizen a “No Parking” sign in the vicinity, I parked there. Promptly, I visited Security, and explained the circumstances. (I) No visible parking signs. (2) Open and unchained culde-sac. (3) Proximity to CC Blood Donor Clinic. (4) -17C weather. SILLY ME, why would they give a $%&!. Park an hour, pay $47.08. The sidekicks near Optometry were even more helpful When the situation was re-pleaded to them, the response was ‘Thatll be $47.08.

To the editor,
I would like to comment on the reactions and efforts put out by those individuals committed to world peace. it is something we have heard before but perhaps have overlooked due to the intensity of the past week’s news. The Gulf C&is is indeed a nightmare which evokes in each of us great feelings of shock, anger and helplessness. I am deeply touched by the spirit and devotion that people express in their actions for peace. However, the issue that needs emphasis is that we need to be living examples of what we stand for. What ‘good are anti-war demonstrations if we Iash out to those who can rightfully voice an opposite opinion? What good is our anger if we react destructiveIy to those we cannot convince? This is not only wasting vital energy, but fueling the problem. We may eventually have to contend with our own smalier wars withirl the community and nation should this persist. I am not suggesting that all activists tire reactionary. Nor am I suggesting that we become inactive. Demonstrations, rallies, and writing our MP’s are only some of the avenues we need to express our concern I am however emphasizing the importance of our approach. Should we truly want peace, we must start at the source. This is internal. How do we do this? We can meditate on and visualize world peace; our thoughts are powerful tools If this is not your style there are other approaches. Respect each person’s right to ‘their opinions. Understand that someone who may have, an opposite opinion may actually feel the same way toward the war. (We are all experiencing fear and/or anger.) Recognize that we need to be a living example of what we stand for. lt is from the inner place of discernment that our outer actions speak and have relevance. It is then that we can be taken seriously and our goals can be achieved.

last week, as I strolled through the CC I overheard what the powerful student organization, the OFS was up to. I heard them pass a resolution condemning “Iraq’s unprovoked attack” on Israel. The Gulf war is a terrible thing and I’m sure it’s on all students’ .minds, but the first thought that ran through my mind upon hearing this was “how completely pathetic: the second was “who the hell do these people think they are?“. To be honest I don’t know for sure how OFS reps are picked but I would be willing to bet that it wasn’t for any special knowledge of Middle Eastern politics, history and culture, or for expertise on foreign policy in general.

Forum that the Safety First Committee’s main argument is that safety can be improved through actual physical changes throughout the campus. By doing this it is hoped that students, staff and faculty, of both sexes, should not feel uncomfortable on campus during the evening. From a planning perspective, education and escort services are not enough to mitigate the perceived sense of danger around the campus during the evening hours. For example, lighting strategically placed along walkways leading to major buildings should be implemented. The present lack of lighting discourages people from using the campus facilities during the evening further accentuating the perceived sense of danger. It has

This war did not start in January 1992 (take note Paul Done and Andy Koch). January merely marks the period when coalition forces joined the battle. This war started fiveand-a-half months ago in the first week of August 1990 when Iraq attacked Kuwait. If you doubt this, ask the residents of Kuwait City. This war will be over when the sovereign nation Kuwait is liberated and secure. It is easy to bash Americans and I am no stranger to it. Living close to a giant we see their faults clearly, Their past motives and current motives may be tainted. But, how relevant are these speculations? I don’t want people to die but Iraq invaded Kuwait. Iraq brutally subdued the Kuwaiti people. Are we in favour of @at or against it? I categorically state that I am against it. The most important decision before sup porting the entry of coalition forces into the war is the personal decision: Would I go? At first, my response was no, because I don’t want to die and you can’t ask someone to do what you won’t do yourself. So I believe we should just wait for sanctions to work. After reading the rep,orts of Iraqi treatment of Kuwait&from returning Canadian hostages, I was appalled. The basis for my personal decision has changed. If I were in the Kuwait-is’ situation, I would want help. My decision changed. My support for the use of force is firm. I can only hope that if I am ever in the Kuwaitis’ situation the world does not wait five-and-a-half months before coming to my rescue.
ro the editor, On Wednesday afternoon, as I crossed campus, I was affronted by a bright yellow bristle board sign that commanded, ‘Western Troops Out of the Gulf Now!” The call for a peace rally later that afternoon did not stay in , my mind, instead it was the slogan that caused me to ponder. I am not a war monger, nor do I believe that the liberal use of force to solve problems is acceptable, but I have concluded that the presence of the Multi-national force in the Persian Gulf has been necessary to deter Saddam Hussein Hussein has assembled a formidable land army and possesses heinous chemical and biological weapons. He sees Iraq’s conquest of Kuwait as destinyand he is prepared to lead his country into a “Holy War.” Despite economic sanctions and numerous peace missions, Hussein has continued to keep a tight grip on Kuwait. Even the visit of the United Nations%ecretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar has produced no hope of peace. As this great threat to peace and national self-determination looms in Iraq, and all diplomatic measures have failed to produce an agreement; can we now remove the only force that is stopping Saddam Hussein from exerting his control over Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and his true objective of destroying Israel and establishing a Palestinian homeland? I don’t think that these protesters understand the consequences of Hussein’s actions, but perhaps they will settle for a trade off, If those wanting troops out are willing to give up their right to live free of oppression, the right to freely determine the direction of Canada through a democratic system, the right to speak freely against the ruling government, and the right to worship in any manner or to be atheist, then perhaps a deal can be made. Of course this sounds ludicrous, but it is /exactly whai has happened in Kuwait and could possibly be inflicted upon other states if Saddam Hussein is allowed to continue his terror. ti everyone in this world played by fair wles then their would be no war. It is unfortunate that the idealistic view of peach in the Persian Gulf will not happen against such a man as Saddam. Force is necessary to thrust Iraq from Kuwait, and force is necessary to destroy the brutal Iraqi war machine that threatens the Middle East. It is just after 2:00 am EST, Jan. 17,1991. As I sit in sombre stillness at my computer, only the drone of the television breaks my silence, I do not cheer the onset of war even though 1 believe in its objectives. May we always be thankful for our freedom. Andrew History

been well documented that there is a positive correlation between usage and safety. Perhaps proper and adequate lighting could be installed along the University’s major walkways, such as in front of c and around the library? While we agree that education is important in addressing the issue of safety on campus, we believe that it should be done in conjunction with actual physical design measures. The Safety First Committee’s concerns should be seriously looked at by the administration and students of the University of Waterloo.

Not another war story Pop, It’s hot, it’s sweaty and it’s sandy here. Real sandy. All the ‘guys are cool, even in uniform. TaIkin’ to the pilots they @ld me of the places they’d bombed, the buildhgs and machines they destroyed. It sounded pretty clinical though, no mention of people or anything. We bin fightin’for a couple a days. The guys we kill don’t look so evil as eyeryone back home seems to think. They just look like your average guy, but scared silly cause he’s bein’ shot at. Like a lot of the guys on our side. Like me. Some of the guys found a woman-soldier in the field yesterday, I don‘t know if she was Iraqi or Kuwaiti or Israeli or what, but she was real dead and a woman and that was all they needed to know. They jus’stashed her behhd a bumed+ut armour wreck, kinda slumped over and quiet-like, when they were done with her. I bin to the field hospital too. On guard duty, I seen children who only had shreds of face left. I seen women with bellies full of shrapnel. There are guys from my outfit 1yi.n round moanin’ ail night. I wish you coulda seen it. There was a whole lot more blood than on M*A*SH or those war shows.
One guy had his whole face scooped out from a shell and another guy didn’t have any arms. Some of them were only a bit of gristle, just burnt meat stuck on crippled spines. %u lied to me Pop. I went and did what I was told, I followed my orders, just like you said to, I did some real bad things.

Getting prepared for Brazil and 1992 by Angela Heeds Imprint staff The West may have more of a population problem than we think. Or at least this seemed to be a consistent theme throughout the Popu1c1ti~n and Developmen 1 conference last weekend at U of T, Scarborough Campus.

In fact, the approximately 70 student Pug-wash members who gathered for a 3-day workshop focused on themselves rather than the developing countries who would seeni to warrant the attention. But the point was well taken, “We’ve got to change ourselves to allow more maneuverability for change in the South,” stated one participant. Power relationships dominated many of the different workshop discussions - between humans and animals, the North and the South, men and women and the rich and the impoverished.
Program from UW News Bureau Students in a University of Waterloo field study program will get a chance to trek through the Himalayas in India this summer whiIe earning halfan academic credit. The six week program for up to 26 students is under the direction of Prof. Sehdev Kumar of the Department of Environment and Resource Studies. it will be the sixth time that students from Canada will travel to India since the program was started under Kumar’s direction in 1980. The program’s focus will be on the human ecology of the Himalayas and economic, cultural and ecological changes occurring there because of totim, deforestation, population pressures, i”dustry, and water and energy needs, Kumar said. Areas of study will be the state of Himachal Pradesh and the cold desert of Ladakh As part of the program, ipxialists in forestry and conservation wil1 present case studies. Last summer’s travellers Muded 10 students from UW and 16 from six other universities in Ontario and Quebec. James Gardner, dean of graduate studies and a professor in W’s geography department, accompanied Kumar and the students last summer. Their stuczies were centred around the theme of sustainable develop ment and the environment in a global context. One highlight was the group’s travel through the secondhighest pass in the world, at a height of 17,582 feet. It took three days of travel by bus and Jeep to get to the Taglangla Pass. Along the way, the group talk& with shepherds whose ‘lifestyle has changed little in the past several. thousand years, Kumar said. They find, however, there is pressure for change as “many people in the cities don’t respect them; they think they’re primitive peopleP so there’s a ruralurban conflict going on,” he said. The students observed how millions of people live in and around the Himalayas. “We don’t have peaple riving in our Rockies and you don’t see human interaction with the mountainous environment in the manner one observes in the Himalayas,” Kumar said. As well, the students took part in lectires and seminars

As part of this year’s program, eight students from India will visit Canada for six weeks in June and July to experience Canadian culture and environment. They will .also meet with the group that will travel to India. Both groups receive extensive orientation about Iife and culture in the host country, and about the challengesofvisitingandtravelXngin a different cultural and social environment, Kumar said. Last. year, the Canadian students were “well prepared to encounter pockets of poverty and deprivation in India, and different cultural values and mores,” he said..They left In& with ” a greater sense of sympafiy and appreciation for the challenges of development,” he added. The students from India found Canada’s Ievels of social order ana environmental concerns “impressive,” but -%hey were “quite distmught by gross misuse of resources here and the waste that resulted,” Kurnar said. about -sustainable -is development is a vast area of study tl-@preser$s many questions and few e?y answers, he said. ‘Tet the

A Brief History The aggressive role of the United States in rapidly bringing the world to a state of war is a seemingly blatant attempt to continue the American domination of financial assets in sovereign states, while at the same time protecting its own interests. But this is by no means a new role for the American govemment. As the title of Michael Levine’s speech last night at Fed Hall -“Guns, Drugs, and the CIA” - implied, the United States Govern-, ment has long waged false wars against countries to protect its own interests, such as under the guise of the war on drugs. Since the Second World War, the American through the Central InGovernment, telligence Agency -and other covert organizations, has conducted operations around the world that have incl;ded drug smuggling arms deals, assassinations, and mass murder. Stage-managed media events like the Iran-Contra hearings and the Watergate scandal only,portray part of a story, a thirty-year history which cannot continue to be ignored. Most of the United States’ machinations overseas which would later become the covert operations we know of toda started during World War II, when the 6 ffice of S~ategic Services (OSS) was created as a government organization to help organize the fight against the Japanese and the Germans. However, when the war ended, the OSS took on the role against what had always been considered the real threat to the United States - communism. After the war, Marines and some Japanese prisoners of war fought against Mao’s revolution on the side of Chiang Kai-Shek. The OSS trained KaiShek’s men to become Chinese Nationalist guerillas, known as Chi-Nats. The campaign ended in 1961, fearing a loss to Mao’s revolutionaries, and Chiang fled to Taiwan
where, in the p’roces~ of establishing himself, he killed over twenty thousand people. The OSS became the Central Int&igence Agency in 1947, and its first oqIer of business was “protecting” Italy. The U.S. feared that Italy was slowly sliding to the left, so a mpaign was started promoting American interests. It&an Americans wrote home saying that they would stop sending money if their hmilies voted communist. Gary Cooper and Frank Sinatra did Voice of America promotional spots, saying voting communist was un-American. The campaign worked. Over the next few years, the CIA helped bring the Shah to power in Iran, and tried to overthrow Syrias government. In South Korea, the CIA backed Syngman Rhee, who executed without trial over one hundred thousand people as suspected ,communists. men the CIA started getting down to business. Until 1959, Fulgencio Batik and mafia man Santos Trafficante had been running Cuba. In 1959 Fidel Castro and Che Guevara overthrew Batista in a popular revolution, In late 1959, vice-president Richard Milhous Nixon and the mafia set up a brigade of Traf&ante’s former mafia associates who were exiled from Cuba to remove Castro. The men were trained in Miami and Guatemala. Guatemala had been the United States’ since 1954 when they helped the extremely powerful United Fruit Company overthrow the so&list government and suppress the banana workers’ union Ironically, it was these very actions which turned a~young doctor into a revolutionary - Ernest0 “Che” Guevera. The exiles were trained to terrorize Cuba’s civilians, proving that their government couldn’t heip them. In 1940, this plan, “Operation Forty,” was expanded to include Castro’s assassination. Among the CIA members were Frank Sturgis, who was later arrested as one of the Watergate burglars, Felix Rodriguez, while the organizer behind it was Howard HUItt.

In 1961, the operation became much more obvious with the Bay of Pigs invasion, and later with the blockade of Cuba. At the time, the world was so busy watching the Soviet Missiles in Cuba that they failed to notice the American ones in Turkey and Iran - on the Soviet border. After the failure of the Bay of Pigs invasion, operation Mongoose - the new name for the was resumed. The plan to kiU Castro plan was run by Theodore Shackley from Miami, in a base called JM/WAVE. Under Shackley’was another top CIA man,Thomas Clines, as well as Ed Wilson who was later caught selling explosives to the Libyans. Between 1962 and 1%5, thirty three attempts were made to kill Castro. Before the plan was successful, Qperation Mongoose rsonnel were caught shipping narcotics r om Cuba into the United States through the JM/WAw base. In 1965, JMrwAvE was close& 5hackley and CIines moved to Laos, where the Chi-Nats had been sent. In Laos, Shackley and Cl&s befriended Hmong tribesmen who, Ied by an opium warlord Vang Pao, supported right-winger general Phoum. During the ‘609, a civil war was caused I by the American influenced exclusion of socialists from the coalition government. “ChiChi” Quintero, Rafael Viiverde and F&x Rodriguez trained the Hmong in assasihation Felix was also working with Donald Gregg George Bush’s former National Security Advisor, and General Richard &cord. Secord was the deputy air wing commander in Iaos. He helped Vang Pao by firebombing competitors’airstrips and fIying rice to the Hmone; freeing land to psow opium. &cord’s phes flew the opium to Ventiane, where a man narnedHuu ‘l’im Heng was supposed to be building a Pepsi-Cola bottling plant. This provided a perfect Cover, allotig the government to move cash and buy chemicals to refine the opium into heroin. Selling it, Secord and Clines and Shackley bought guns for secret assassination programs against the socialist Pathet Lao forces.

In 1968, Santos Trafficante visited Vietnam. Soon, Pao’s heroin started flowing into the United States through Miami Some profits were laundered through Australia’s Nugan Hand bank set up by Francis Nugan and Michael Hand who had worked for Shackley in Laos. By reinvesting the money into their operations, the plant made billions of dollars. Between 1966 and 1968, John Singlaub, head of the United States Military assistance command, helped Shackley 8 and Climes. Singlaub lead the U.S. branch of the World Anti-Communist League (WACL). It was something of an embarrassment when some European members of the WACL turned out to be ex SS officers. In 1968,the operation in Laos was aided by a young man who had been an altar boy until his high-school senior year - Oliver North. Later, in 1971, North protested Press Coverage of L&utenant William Galley’s My Lai massacre, saying he’d never titn&sed any atrocities. North aided the team of Shackley, Cl&s, Singlaub and Secord, and this group was helped further in 1968 with the election of Richard Nixon as the 37th president. In 1969, Shackley and Clines moved to Saigon and directed Operation Phoenix, assassinating people that were suspected-of collaboration with the communist organization the National Liberation Front. By 1971, CIA director Bill Colby stated that this had resulted in the killing of over 20,000 people. The South Vietnamese government’s estimate was over 40,000 people. In 1971, operation Phoenix was exposed, and Congress ordertid the plan shut down It was maintained until 1975. In 1972 another problem arose. Shackley moved to Chile to handle the problem of the election of socialist president Allende. The American point of view toward popular elections such as this one was summed up by then %hnued to page 13a

Back in the United States, the government was having its own problems at the Watergate hotel. Howard Hunt and some Miami Cubans as well as Frank Sturgis were caught burgling the democratic party headquarters.

After Ford became president, he waited less than a month to pardon Nixon ending the investigations, and asking congress for $850,000 dollars to ease Nixon’s transiti0Jl to civilian life. The United States’ war against the people of Vietnam ended in 1973, with helicopters scrambling from rooftops trying to get U.S. everyone out of Saigon, and with the declaring Victory. Over two million tons of bombs were dropped on Laos alone - more than on Germany and Japan combined in World War II. Theodore Shackley who headed the East Asia division “lost” tons of American weapons during the war. They were stashed in Thailand as a back-up in case weapons were needed in a hurry. The Nugan Hand bank continued to help the U.S. It eventually ‘expanded to thirteen branches in WACL countries like the Philippines. It didn’t do much banking, but it paid heroin bills, laundered profits, shielded tax dodgers, and monitored Asian troops. In 1975 it helped destroy Gough Whitlam’s Australian Labor government, by tying it to Commerce International, a company tied to Ed Wilson, the man who. was helping Shackley, who was used as a scapegoat. Whitlam’s attempts to expose this CIA plot to overthrow him revealed an Australian space study headquarters as a CIA bugging facility.’ Shackley sent threats to Australian Intelligence, days later an unprecedented constitutional maneuver deposed Whitlam. That same year, a company associate arranged a Nugan Hand/Iran money pipeline, funding U.S./Iranian arms ‘sales. Later, in 1977, Nugan Hand opened Thai offices, handling nothing but drug money. The blatant disregard the CIA had for other American agencies could not be doubted after it was revealed that the branch shared receptionists with the United States’ Drug Enforcement Agency. In 1979, Clines met Bernie Houghton, a drug runner and Michael Hand’s advisor. This was the last transaction that both founders of the bank would have a part in, as in 1980, Francis Nugan’s conscience got the better of him and he killed himself. This caused a series of investigations which caused a colIapse of the bank amidst a national scandal for the bank. Clines helped Houghton escape the mess by sending him to the Philippines, a safe WACO country under dictator Ferdinand Marcos. Ins 1975 Richard Secord moved to Iran, employed by a U.S. pentagon agency to

however, saw this as an opportunityto get Reagan as president and ex-CIA director George Bush as vice-president. For the CIA this was a dream ticket, but this particular dream had a price tag and the bill was sent to the hostages in the form of another seventy six days of imprisonment. During ti election campaign, on October 21 of 1980, Reagan hinted that he had a secret plan to free the hostages. This was just one day after CIA contact and arms dealer Richard Brenneke offered Iran forty million dollars to delay the release of the hostages, and promised to lift Carter’s arms embargo. The government members involved all had collective amnesia regarding the subject. The CIA told Iran not to give Carter any credit for promises he made, thus sentencing the hostages to another seventy-six days of imprisonment. The hostages were released the day Reagan took office, and shortly thereafter Israeli and American arms were shipped to Iran with the ClA’s approval. Also financing Reagan’s election, like Nixon’s, was John Singlaub who x promised WACL countries that were demanding renewed CIA presence that help< was coming in the form of Ronald Reagan. Guatemala alone contributed milKor& of dollars through Reagan campaign manager Michael Deaver.

who was also helping Pastora denounce the CIA’s involvement accidentally informed a woman named Martha Honey of the American bombing of the journalists (later known as the La Penca bombings). Honey’s husband was hurt in the bombing at La Penca. This lead to the beginning of legal action against the CIA by Martha Honey and the Christic Institute, In 1988, George Bush was elected as the 41st president. Former head of the CIA from 1975 to 1977, he is a compl@e opposite of the “wimp’: he ~a.$ portrayed -as. In 1964, at the age* of 40, he$ampaig&d against the Civil Rights A& Irr44?79, he &rned that a nuclear war was winnable. As Vice President, he cast three tie-breaking votes to renew chemical weapons production, while now he denounces Iraq’s use of them. ’ His attack on Panama was the last in a series of transactions he had with Manuel Noreiga who first worked for the CIA in the 1950s spying on leftist students. Noriega also worked with the Reagan administration on covert actions against Nicaragua and arranged ship ments for the Medellin drug cartel who supply 80 per cent of the U.S. cocaine market and who have murdered Colombia’a minster of Justice, two successive attorney generals, a presidential candidate, 181 narcotics attorneys, 57 judges and a dozen reporters. When Bush became president in 1989, he authorized coveti CIA support for Noreiga’s ’ opposition, because of Noriega’s refusal to continue to work with the CIA leading Noriega to “annul” the 1989 elections which had been running two-tonne against him. Today, we are in the midst of a global confrontation involving over eighty countries. The CIA campaign to misinform the American public as to why they should support the United States is only another page in the history of the government’s foreign involvement. All of this information is not new or difficult to obtain. The history of American involvement in other countries, violating almost every fundamental concept of the American constitution, is well documented in many books which have traced foreign CIA involvement.

Under Ronald Reagan, things went relatively smoothly for the CIA until 1984, when pro-Iranian Hezbollah fundamentalists kidnapped CIA man WilEam Buckley, torturilig revelations . about earlier Iranian assassinations out of him. They ransomed Buckley, and so No&, appointed by Reagan, picked Secord to try to ship U.S. arms to Iran from Israel. Meanwhile, Reagan caIled Iran a “new version of murder incorporated”, saying America wouldn’t make concessions to terrorists. By August 1985,the CIA started shipping missiles from Israel, but Buckley was already dead. They kept Buckley’s revelations a secret, and the U.S. kept selling them arms, netting 30 million dollars. Oliver North received 200,000 dollars in the form of a trust fund while Hakim, Clines and Secord pocketed 285,000 dollars each. Other profits funded the Contras. To convince Iran that helping the United States fight communism was a legitimate enterprise, North and Robert McFarlane delivered presents: more missiles. In 1986, Iranian Students publicized McFarlane’s visit, while the U.S. denied it happened. When the

Warrior Hockey by Andrew Kinross Imprint sports
If you’re the superstitious type, you might think that the hockey Warriors’ number has finally been called. But thus far, at least, not a single OUAA iuliversity has iced a team capable of conquering the Warriors in regular season play. Last weekend, Western and Brock were the latest squads to fall victim to the Warriors, who remain undefeated through 13 regular season games. Head coach Don McKee said that the team, now in sole possession of first place in the OUAA West Division ahead of Laurier and fourth-ranked nationally, does not specifically aim to go undefeated, but he’s not complaining about the way things are
l
going.
“Looking at the zero under the losses in the standings helps build the confidence level,” said McKee. Captain Clark Day’s philosophy was similar. “We take things game by game, and if we can throw a whole bunch of one-game winnjng streaks together, we’ll be happy.” UW visited London, Ontario fof an encounter with the Western Mustangs on Friday evening and handed the ‘Stangs their fourth loss of the campaign against seven victories and a tie, 5-2. Waterloo got off to a slow start, being outplayed for most of the first period.’ But solid netminding by Steve Udvari kept them in the game and a late goal put them up 2-1 at the end of one p&iod. The line of Steve Schaefer,> John Williams and Mark Mackay was formed for the first time on Friday night and clicked for both of Waterloo’s firstperiod goals. Schaefer set up Rod Thacker at 2112 and also assisted on a goal scored by Williams just 41 seconds before the end of the frame.

Costigan tallied the only goal of the second period at 4:27 by manoeuvering from the Brock blue line to the slot and pulling the trigger. David and Lorentz scored in the third period to round out the scoring. Both sides played a chippy game and even though the Warriors were heavily penalized in the first two, I .periods, the out-matched Badgers 1 could not capitalize. The teams exchanged goals during a fiveminute. penalty to Dave Lurentz in Fedfust perrot and earher, brentz a scored while Ian Pound was off for holding. Goaltender James Organ turned in a fine performance and he along’ with fellow. rookie Steve Udvari boast averages of less than 2 goals per game. Veteran centre Tony Crisp is the current Warrior scoring leader with 27 points (13 goals and 14 assists) in 13 games. He is followed closely behind by Dave Lure&, who has 23 points, and Darren Snyder with 16. Last night at the Waterloo Arena, the Warriors played the first game of a home-and-home series against the second-place Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks, last year’s national choke artists; Details were unavailable at press time.

McKee also speculated the Hawks may stilI feel worn from taking in an exhibition weekend in the wintry north of Fairbanks, Alaska, where they played against the

Enough dicking around! It’s back to the business at hand. Finally, after taking nearly eight weeks off from league play, the Black Plague volleyball Warriors met their latest OUAA West victims, the Brock Badgers for a match in St. Kitts on Wednesday, January 16. And as the odds makers in Los Angeles had piedicted, Waterloo bullied the Badgers 3-O (15-13, 15-3, E-6), unlike those girly ?Viners on the West coast. Wednesday night, the Plague once again played the spoiler, defeating the host GueIph Gryphons 3-1 (15-5, l l-5,15-6,15-7). The two wins keep the Warriors apace with the McMas-
ter Marauders,both with identical records atop the OUAA West.

Waterloo travelled to Halifax this past weekend to participate in the Dalhousie Classic Volleyball Ind vitational hosted by the Dalhousie University Tigers at the Dalplex. A mixed bag of talent filled the event, including third-ranked Manitoba, fourth-ranked Sherbrooke, fifth-ranked Waterloo, sixthranked Dalhousie, eighth-ranked Winnipeg, along with New Brunswick, Moncton, and Queen’s, The Plague put forth a fine effort, winning four out of five matches, (14 game victories out of 19). Veteran power hitter Steve Smith was named to the tournament ail-star team. That is his third all-star selection in as many tournaments this month, and a shoe-in for AUCanadian. No surprises there. But the big story of the tournament was the surprise gold medalists, the Dalhousie Tigers. They used a very
strategic offence to sweep the event with match victories over Moncton, Queen’s, and surprise upsets over the Manitoba Bisons and uur own Waterloo Warriors. As a resuIt, Dalhousie vaults to third in the nation (from number six last week), while Manitoba slipsone notch to fourth and Waterlod remains at number five. Dalhousie fourthlyear player Scott Bagnell, spearheaded the Tigers’ success with 1.1 kills, 23 blocks, and three aces, and was awarded the tournament MVP honour. But the Tigers didn’t take the crown without a strong fight from the Plague in the semi-final tilt. Waterloo looked, to be going to the champidnship match, taking the first two games by a hair, 15-13 and 17-15. ba1housi.e squeaked out a victory in game three, 14-16, and with the momentum and the Dalplex crowd behind them, took the match by winning the final two games by the identical score of 15-12. Steve Smith led the Warriors with 29 kills, while brother Scott ham-
mered down 26. William Zabjek loomed over the net in a defensive role for 10 stuff blo+ and added 16 kills. The Plague was relegated to the third place match against Winnipeg, a rematch of last weekend’s bronze medal battle at the Winnipeg Invitational. Refusing to go home empty-handed once again, Waterloo took revenge with a three game sweep (15-10, 15-10, 15-10). Steve Smith paced the offence once again with 27 kiIls. Scott Smith Ianded 24 kills, Brian Shin scraped up nine digs (please don’t confuse that with “shindig”) and William Zabjek scored four aces. ‘*I

defensive players in the country,” said Warrior head coach Scott Shantz. “That will really help us in the playoffs.” Waterloo began pool play with a 31 victory over Winnipeg on Friday (17-16,15-5,16-l?, 15-4). Guess who had the highest attack stats? Oooo! You’ve been paying; attention. That’s

Beat Laurier but lost to Guelph
Warriors drop to 3-2 Warrior Basketball by Rich Nichol Imprint sports The heads of the many Waterloo Warrior basketball faithful must still be spinning. Last Saturday, the Warriors marched down the road to WLU and notched their third victory in four starts with a 72-62 drubbing of the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Basement. Then the Guelph Gryphons came to the PAC just four days later and gave Waterloo a good old fashioned whup pin’, 95-69. You could argue that Waterloo & up against two different opponents, first the futile and then the elite. But normally the Warriors adjust and play well in the challenging battles against the league juggernauts. ‘We couldn’t stop them inside,” jaid a severely disappointed Warrior head coach Don McCrae. “There was no point in the game where we could put a handle on it.” In other OUAA West action over the past week: Friday night Lakehead defeated Windsor 77-69; Saturday zftemoon Lakehead beat Windsor again 85-77, Western walloped Brock 97-66, and Guelph edged McMaster 67-65; Wednesday night Western crushed Windsor 102-79 and, do not adjust your set, this is not a fypo, Iaurier conquered Brock 78-77. Western sits atop the OUAA West standings undefeated at 5-O with Guelph in a close second at 4-1. takehead (3-l) and Waterloo (3-2) are tied for third, the IUorWesters having a game in hand. The bottom
half of the pack has McMaster pegged in fifth at 1-3, while Brock, Lauder, and Windsor are all log-jammed in sixth with identical l-4 records. Saturday afternoon’s contest was fairly close with neither Waterloo nor Laurier getting more than a ten-point advantage throughout. The Warriors. burst out of the starting gate to take a 14-6 lead on a trey from Sean VanKoughnett, a steal and score by Mike Duarte, and another deuce by Duarte moments later. It took nearly the rest of the half for the Golden Hawks to shave the margin, with most of their baskets coming off the hands of Mike Alessio at the perimeter and Danny Deep at the top of the key. UW had a four-point jump on the Hawks at the break, 34-30. In the second half, Laurier kept tying it up, but the Warriors would pull ahead each time, refusing to let Laurier take over. In a last ditch effort to steal the win, Hawks head coach Gary Jeffries had his team commit sacrificial fouls, hoping the visitors would choke at the free-throw line. Mistake! Mistake Signor! They nailed all of their last eight free-throws to solidify the win, 88-81. Free-throws were definitely a part of the win. Waterloo sank 3O-of-35 attempts at the line for 86 percent, compared to a gruesome 63 percent by the Hawks. Leading the assault for the Warriors once again was VanKoughnett, who potted 19 points and snatched eight rebounds. He shot 8for-8 from the line, which interestingly enough, put him at a perfect 18-for-18 on free-throws after the first four games. Other high scorers for Waterloo were Duarte with 15 points (including 5-for-8 from the field),

The Waterloo basketball Athenas took a four game losing streak into last Wednesday’s game against the Brock Badgers, and by 8:30 Saturday night the streak had run up to six after visiting the Witid Laurier Golden Hawks. Brock beat the Athenas (now l-6 in league play) 53-40, while host Laurier decisioned them by a 59-48 count.
Plagued by offensive lapses Wednesday night, the Athenas found themshlveidown early to the bigger and stronger Badgers. Brock was up 14-4 just six minutes in, then expanded the lead to 13,20-7, with 9:40 left in the first half. Waterloo stormed back, behind only a basket at the half, 26-24. Early second half play saw plenty of. back-and-forth action, and although the Athenas were never able to pull even, they stayed within acoupIe of points of the Badgers. With ten minutes left on the clock, Brock was up 38-34 in what looked like was

Jason Poag and Chris Moore both canning 11, and Dave Rosebush sinking an even 10. Top scorers for the Golden Hawks were Alessio with 20 points and Danny Deep had 15. Wednesday night’s cakewalk, as McCrae said, was the work of Guelph’s inside players. Freshman Dave Sherwood (6’9’3, and the veteran duo of Tim Mau and Eric Hammond (both 6’8”) combined for a total of 57 points and 23 rebounds, sheer domination under the glass. Sherwood was the major cawe of death draining 27 points (12-for-18 from the field and 5-for-7 at the charity stripe) and ripping down 10 rebounds. “We are so glad that Dave decided to pick Guelph as the place to play his university basketball,” gleamed Gryphon skipper Tim Darling. Ttipping the scoresheet for UW were Duarte and Moore with 13 apiece, while VanKoughnett was held to just seven. Guelph’ out-rebounded the hosts 33-18, yet surprisin&ly, the shooting stats were fairly similar. The game was a nightmare from beginning to end for Waterloo with the Gryphons dominating early. They nearly doubled up on UW, Zl12, after eight minutes, on route to a 43-30 halftime lead. Waterloo could not sustain a solid comeback, allowing the Gryphs to turn it into a scrappy cakewalk. McCrae then allo wed some valuable floor experience for his bench players including good performances from Mike Dvoracek, Bruce Vanloon, and Rob Baird. The three held Guelph to under thirty, 95-69. Next action for the Warriors is this

Waterloo then proceeded to tighten up, a couple of missed open shots violations plus two ten second resulted in Waterloo managing but six points to the final buzzer. While the Athenas did not wiri, head coach Denise Dignard was not totally dispIeased. ‘We rebounded well, especially on the offensive boards,” (where Waterloo held an impressive nine to one advantage). Waterloo shot only 24 per cent from the field as compared to Brock’s 40 per cent, obviously the difference
in the game’s outcome. Centre Leah Ann Erickson had a strong game on offence, hitting 7 of 11 field goals plus a single free throw for 15 points to lead the Athenas. Brenda Kraemer added 11 points and eight rebounds, while Erickson and Sandi Cannery had seven rebounds apiece. Centre Chris White topped Brock’s score sheet with 14. In Saturday’s game, Waterloo reversed a trend by jumping out to an early lead. On the strength of six points by Erickson and four by rookie playmaking guard Tina Murray, the Athenas found themselves up 10-6.

Iate Saturday afternoon the larrior and Athena swim teams lade the trek down the QEW for a set ! dual meets against the Brock adgers, the famous. Western Musngs, and the Trent University ccalibur. Both the Warriors and Athenas emolished Trent, handily beat rock, and swam very well agair& feestern but lost in two close fought at&s, with the men only losing 11214. The highlight of the meet for the hrriors occurred in the 100 fly phere.rookie Ian Hunt, swimming in is home pool, shattered $e school !cord with a 58.85 cl&king. Hunt so made the Warrior top ten all time 5t in the 50 free with the fourthIstest time ever, placing third in the bee. To top it all off Hunt swam fly on ke opening medley relay with teammtes Mark Yip, Erit Huff, and Brad jesch (KOD) to finish a close second ) Western. This was also the seventhistest Warrior time ever. Because of
these accomplishments, Hunt was selected as Warrior Athlete of the Week. ~ Yip led off this relay with the fifthfastest Warrior 100 back ever, then came back later in the meet to handily win the individual 100 back in a similar time. Sandwiched between these events Yip swam to a second in the 100 free. Freshman Eric Huff, after a two year layoff, has made ai-t excellent return finishing third in the 200 IM and a close second in the 200 breast. Brad Oesch (KOD), fresh off the flu bug, completed the 200-400 free double by placing third in the 400 and second in the shorter event. Fellow KOD Jason Krupp swam a very fast time in the 100 fly finishing second only to Hunt, and destroyed the field in the 200 fly for the win. The other KOD, Michael Cash, swam a brave race for fourth in the mile and another fourth in the 100 free. Team captain Dave Dineen showed his leadership by winning the 200 back convincingly, and putting in a good performance in the 200 IM, placing fifth. University of Ottawa transfer Michel Denault chopped off an ur&eard of 30 seconds from his personal best in the mile coming in sixth. Other exceptional point scoring efforts were turned in by Chris

Cupidio, Andrew Cartwright, Mark Goodwin, Scot Whyte, Kevin Mcponald, and adic. The Athenas also had an excellent meet, with several fine individual performances. Team veteran Sheryl Slater started things off on the right foot by winning the first individual event, +e 800 free. Slater then came back to finish third in the unfamiliar (to her) 100 back. Also competing in the 100 back was Ttih Felszegi who finished second, for seventh on the Athena top ten all time list, but this paled in comparison to her 200 back which she< won easily. For her efforts Felszegi was awarded the Athena Athlete of the Week. Super frosh Christie Selig obliterated another field in the 200 fly for a convincing win and the thirdfastest Athena time ever. Selig also tied for third in the 200 free (sixthfastest ever) and placed fourth in the 100 fly (ninth fastest ever). Two outstanding Athenas made their debut this weekend. In their first meet since the Ontario championships last year Corrie Powell and Shawn Joynt exceeded all expectations. Powell placed fourth in the 50 free, fifth in the 100 fly, and led the tifinal free relay to a fourth place finish. Joynt swam several great races, com-
ing third in the 200 IM and fifth in the 100 free. Kris Jackshaw made a @eat comeback from a recent injury placing sixth in the 100 fly and swimming excellent relay legs on both the medley and free relays. Topping off the top ten performances was Juanita Diegel in the 100 breast placing fifth and ending up at ‘eighth on the all time Athena list. qther point scoring efforts were put in by Andi Kenyon, Joann Aldridge, Chris Gibson, Nicole rookies Christine Peters, and Guetiero and Andrea Booth.

UW Karate Club chops competition at RMC Karate Club by Kelvin
Pmsyk
Saturday, January 12 was a proud day for the University of Waterloo Karate Club. Eight members, led by sensei Lisa Findlay and brother Greg Findlay, arrived in Kingston for the RMC Varsity &rate Tournament after a nearly eight hour ride through blizzard conditions. With only a week’s notice, the team had little time for preparations, articularly since many had never %efore participated in a tournament. Despite these obstacles, Uw managed a first place overall in kata and second to Q&en’s in team kumite. Katas are trainfig forms featuring a specific series of moves imitating a fight against several 0 ponents (sort of a cross between s K adow boxing and a gymnastic floor routine). A kaG is scored on technique, timing power, speed and focus. Scores for the entire team are totalled. Kumite is light contact sparring with a point going to the competitor making a proper strike to the torso or head area. A match is won by scoring three points or by having more points than your opponent after two minutes. During kumite competition, one team will choose a member for a match, and their opponents will decide who to commit as a challenger. The first choice then alter-

this year. Although the team has picked up several outstanding rookies this year, it has been and will continue to be the veteran team leadership that will decide how good this team can really be,” This weekend the teams will make the long journey to the high school down the road for another set of dual meets with the Laurier Golden Chickens, Carleton, and Laurentian. The meet will be split over two days with the first session on Friday night at 6:15, and the second on Saturday morning at 9:45. This will be the last opportunity to view these two amazing teams in action in town, so come on out and show your support.

Yellow belt David Lorber dis- tinguished himself in both kata and kumite: Although the most junior member of the team, he took all kumite matches and scored very high in kata. A surprise victory was achieved by Tom Luu. During kumite one team wears white belts, the other red. Luu was matched against RMC’s top sparrer. After being tied at two points in sudden death overtime, he captured the win. Reportedly, RMC’s black belt was rather dismayed when Luu removed his sparring belt to replace it with his own orange. With a certified JKA/ISKF instructor, the UW Karate Club practices traditional Shotokan karate. The modern Shotokan style began in the Gichin early 1900%. Master Funakoshi, a poet and school teacher, travelled from his home in Okinawa to Japan proper, hoping to teach the ancient martial art form he practiced, to the Japanese people. At first called Okinawa-te, the name changed to karate (emity hand) as it gased in popularity and the forms practiced by the master were referred to as Shotokan after Funakoshi’s pen name. Through ‘intense physical and meiltal conditioning, students learn fighting techniques that maximize the body’s potential. Training also includes mutual respect and a peaceful attitude - toward others. AS Funakoshi wrote in one of his training principles, “Hitotsu! Jinkaku kansei ni tsutonuro koto,” which means, “One thing! To strive for perfection of character.”

Curling by Darryl
Van Dusen
The Waterloo curling Warriors concluded the weekend with excellent results at the Guelph West Sectional, the first tournament of the season. Waterloo will now continue on to the Toronto East Combined tournament January 25-26 with a 3-2 record. Unfortunately, the breaks were not 09 the side of the Waterloo Athenas. They lost three of their five matches by only one point. With a O-5 record, the Athenas must clinch all of their games at the Toronto East Combined Tourney to advance to the provincials. The weekend revealed strong teams from every university rep resented. Both the Guelph and Toronto tournaments are round robin. Consequently, only the top six teams from the OUAA and OWIAA divisions will continue to the provinci& hosted by WLU in Kitchener on February 9-10. For the next few weeks, look fqrward to nothing less than Kgh-calibre professional curling. The following are Waterloo’s results from the West Sectional Curling Brier hosted by Guelph: warriors: Sat., Jan. 19 [Waterloo 7, Western 3 Waterloo 7, Brock 5 Zaurier 6, Waterloo 4 8 Sun., Jan. 20 Guelph 6, Waterloo 3 Waterloo 7, ‘Windsor 2 Athenas;

year domination in the conference. The Warriors, like Western, dominated their opponents from the East, beating Toronto and Trent, six matches. to none, and defeating Queen’s, McGill York, and Ryerson by identical scores of 5-l. Waterloo secured the second seed at the OUAA finals, to be held here at Uw February 8-9. The beauty of this year’s team is the unmatched depth found at every position. This is exemplified by the fact that three Waticjrs (Bryan Allen, Mike Zidar, and Colin Leung) did not dress for this past weekend’s com-
petition. They could easily start for any other team and most likely will still see action in the OUAA finals. Combine these three players with this weekend’s starting six, namely Jeff Deverill, Ron Hurst, \Bn.~ce Marrison, Lee Marshall, Steve Millard, and Tyler Millard, all under the coaching of Chico Silvestri and Barney bwrence, and you could arguably have the best squash team in the history of UW Athletics. Come out and sup art the Warriors in their quest Por a first OUAA championship F”ebruary 8-9 in the PAC.

The bight hour soundfest raised over ilOO0, with the Gator adding the Light’s bar sales for a total $2000 conribution. Opening the evening was Tindsay itewart, Kitchener’s “poet laureate” n his musical persona ‘The Beggar.” Cnown for his Tuesday night shows It the Coyote, ‘The Beggar” permmed many of his own acoustic pieces as well as covers, unique in heir solo performance, of such’ :lassics as the Beatles’ “A Day in the ife.” Lindsay’s own selections blend ~ock/folk ballads -with figurative,

derisive lyrics and simplicity.. Sunday’s performance marked the long awaited retum of Anonymous Behaviour. Thomas Greer and Ronald Roy appeared as an acoustic guitar duo in their first live performance in three years. Experiments in textual sounds and Greer’s illusive quivering vocals distinguished their poetic compositions “Hoax” and “Still Life” and a haunting version of Peter Gabriel’s “Here Comes the Flood.” After extensive demo work, Anonymous Behaviour plans a return to live format with new material within the year. A spe&l appearance by local performer Mary Anne Epp captured the theme of the evening with a healthy mix of pop and folk. The appropriately titled original “A Friend” was a boisterous display of overwhelming vocals and acoustic manipulation. The lacerating guitar sounds of the Diamond Cutters rocked the third set with an e&&-pop mix The mastery of Willi Buschert’s guitar coupled with Mark Stevenson’s dissonant voice created a highly polished mod-, em rock format.’ Blending philosophy, philanthropy and guitar based rock, the

Micheal MacDonald took the stage for a quick set of superb rock and roll. Backed by the Homewreckers, this inspiring’ hip-shaking selection of classic standards was played as it would be: live and soulful!

His prints can be viewed at Kitchener’s Galleria (Walper Terrace) and South Side Johnny’s Roping the crowd back into a boogieful mood were the l-1 bluesbased band The Hot Tamales. Katrina Maugham belted out blues only the way those sweet soul women can, to the delight and applause of a captivated audience. Too bad if you missed it, but you can catch the Hot Tamales every Tuesday at the Gator. The highlight of the &ht was The Rhiios calypso-funk tuqe, ‘African Song” (we like the drummer in that band) which had everyone (including Mel Brown) grooving with Mike and Danster’s dance-gymnastics. Joined by guest horn Paul Mitchell, The Rhinos’ sound accessories were in peakform for their dynamic cover of Glen Miller’s “In The Mood” and Rhino trademark ‘I Wish I Had A
Wife.“ The Gator crowd noticeably doubled in bulk half an hour before The Rhinos performed, and judging b the response, was thoroughly c z arged. This band is a must see; check them out tonight at the Hoodoo Lounge with the Phantoms and February 8th at the Grad House. Ask about their new video at the Bombshelter, it’s hot! Of course the perfect ending to eight great hours of music was the Gator’s own Wednesday night jammeister Mel Brown and his illustrious Homewreckers. Ironically, they took the crowd’s frenzied Rhino exhaustion and built from it a satisfied crowd, everyone having their fill of musical treats and staple samplings. Of particular note was Mel’s incredibly blue version of ‘Stormy Monday,” it not only let Mel release his furious guitar but allowed all to enjoy the full range of his vocal ability. The evening was brought to a satisfying end with Mel’s signature closing song “Hey Joe.” No slouch was philanthropist Leo Valvasori and his bass, slapping his way through not only the last set but backing several of the other groups as well. All of the artists are well worth seeing and should be watched for around, town.

We tend to associate classical r&sic with technology or grandeur. Two pictures usually spring to mind That df an audiophile and her compact iisc play=. Or that of a large concert t@l, cold and formal. _. ~ ’
j These pictures, howev;er, do not capture the full range of available classical music. Chamber music, or works for one to five instruments, fills a niche in classical music which has not existed in more popular music since
the sixties.
Since the music industry’s t+mph over small bands and individual playing freely in public places, we have only been able to experience the large and glossy concerts. We may have to waif for intimate popular music, but we can still experience it classically. The Music Room, of the KitchenerWater100 Chamber Music -1 I Society,
provide the ideal atmosphere f&r enjoying chamber music in an intimate manner. It is actually part of the so&y president’s, philosophy Professor Jan Narveson, house. This large room, which would be too large to serve any other practical purpose, can hold approximately 85, .in ’ slightly cramped, but cozy seating. The concert is the first of three Mozart Concerts to celebrate the composer’s birthday. Mozart’s music is the most approachable classical music to the novice. Yet he can still ,fascinate the experienced listener. Kenneth Perkins on the violin, and ’
Sophie Renshaw on the viola, both of the @ford Quartet which is based out of the University of Toronto, play together w$.h amazing talent that can only come with years of practice together. Paul Pulford, again displays his ability to fit in to a group. His cello playing provided the necessary third for the opening piece. K563, “Divertmento”, which is Mozart’s only three piece chamber works, The piece is not a slight or “diverting”as its name would suggest. In fact it is remarkably compelling more sd, than many bf Mozart’s chamber works. The interplay between the three pieces, with the cello seeming to. sit slightly to the side, provided a low moaning background to the conversation between the two small instruments. The sixth, and final movement (allegro) will be easily- recognizable to any person who has seen the film brahunt,as it provides the tune which is played, in many variations, throughout the soundtrack. This is not surprising since Sir Netille Marriner, who did the soundtrack, also did “Amadeus”, has produced many excellent interpretations of several of Mozart’s compositions. The second piece, with Leslie De’Ath playing the piano, makes the listener realize the limitations of recording technology in its ability to capture the soundi of 8 ‘piano.
Although it is possible to tell the diffqence between a violin wd.+quality recording of it, the difference is not as obvious as it is with a piano. The Piano Quartet in G (K478), was well performed. When the piece was originally commissioned the benefactor refused payment because of its extreme completiity. But Mozart makes the listeners feel that they are hearing somethiig incredibly simple, and the quartet was played in a manner that perpetuated the illusion. j:g The proximity that you h$ve to the erformers, and the friendliness of P$he environment make “you feel aware of how the music was intended, for relatively small groups. A criticism which could be raised is the lack of officiality, the lack of ushers, the folding seats, the lack of anything that even appears official. But this may be a blessing an avenue of escape *from the bureaucracy of university life.

Then we played in New York City in October.” Their touring was done to help the sales of their vinyl, which is receiving distribution in the US.: “soapbox’ was released in the States on Cargo, md I guess the single wilI be too, and b-t Europe too, as was the last one.” Change of Heart has a new product coming out, according to Blurton. “We just did a single which we produced ourselves. It should be out in March; Cargo Records is putting it out. It’s a split thing with Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet. We are both doing a version of ‘Tired of Waking Up Tired” by the Diodes. They are doing an instrumental, arid and we are doing it with lyrics. We both also are doing an original song each. Ours is called ‘Mythology.’ It’s pretty different; there are samples on it. It’s our dance hit.”

Change of Heart, a Toronto band, have enjoyed much favour in and around the UW community, From great live shows at the Bomber to well received vinyl at CKMS, Change of Heart have built up a solid reputation. The band worked its way into my heart two winters back when I was drawing a salary from IBM and spending it at the Slither Club. They were halcyon days - William New ran ‘em and called ‘em Elvis Mondays. Many bands would surmount the stage through out the course of the evening, often mixing up their line ups to form ‘supergroups.’ Bands like Jr. Gone Wild, Scott B. Sympathy, the Big Daddy Cumbuckets, Minimalist Jug Band, and Change of Heart all shared the spothght and made Mondays worth living for. Ian Blurton, guitarist and lead vocalist for Change of Heart, explains

I’m tired cf... k his part in it: “the Slither had an open stage, so we would just come down and play. Actually, a friend of ours booked Mondays. It was mostly on birthdays, actually.” Perhaps it was usually on birthdays, but I swear I saw him there. more often than not, frequently playing in other people’s bands, like Scott B’s, “I was never committed to Scott B,” explains Blurton, “it was more of a gig to me. I like playing with him and everything, but outside of that, I do make money out of it, and that’s how I live. l’ve been asked to comment on this before, and Change of Heart is definitely &e band that I want to play with. Basically, we formed out of boredom; Rob lived down the stree’: from me - he was out of school, but 1 was skipping school all of the time. And we decided to form a band.” Music seems to be his life: “I’d been plitying music since I was eight anyway, so it was something that I felt that 1 had to do. So when Rob and I formed the band, we had hopes that we would be someday as big as our favourites - the Clash, theJam, Gang of Four.” Bands. often rail against being

“We’re not Rock’n’Roll, ‘cuz that makes me think of the ’50s. or even like the New York Dolls, something that I don’t think we have. I think that we are a rock band, maybe.

Change of Heart enjoy popular success in Southern Ontario, especially in Toronto. But their ,popularity is not limited to this immediate area. Sajrs Blurton: “We do pretty well outside of Ontario. Montreal has been good for us, and so has Van-

Bands often are another band’s biggest boosters. Change of Heart have worked up a network with other bands, and are touring with the ‘Doughboys presently. Explains Blurton: “musicians are generally your friends on the road. They are the people who come out and take a chance on a band.” Videos, as you well know, are the least painful way to take a chance on a band. Sitting at home, watching the tube, is decidedly less costly than trudging down to a club. Change of Heart have entered this world, more than once. ‘There’s a video for ‘Pat’s Decline’,” says BIurton. “That11 be out in the next couple of weeks; we got a Videofact grant. Videos are weird; we have this problem with the lyrics because we try to decide how to present them visually. They are kind of obscure so its kind of hard to decide what to put with them. You don’t want to be too obvious. We like it when the song remains an open ended subject. When you make a video you have to define what you are saying. I don’t think you can d it an art, it’s a commercial really.” But the commercial, in this instan& advertises a most cwl product.

“I reulfy am not interested in gangsters,” filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola told Fkmiere magazine. So why did he bother to make three long movies (close to nine hours total) abut a fictitious Mafia family? Well, Paramouqt did pay him a lot of money, both back in the seventies, when he made parts I and II, and recently, when he updated the story in The GodJathpr IIL After the failure of his studio, Zoetrope, and several of his films, he needed the funds, and more importantly, the bar&ability. But it wasn’t the 5 miNion dollar offer that Coppola couldn’t refuse, it was the idea, the possibihti~ to pick up on the characters * a project over which he would have complete creative control. Like Shakespeare, Coppda is able to read profoqd meanings into the m&t trite materiaL Mario Puzo originally wrote the novel in order td make enough money to write the kind of books he wanted to write. He knew he was selling out, so he didn’t try to redeem the trash When you finish the last page, all you have learned is what to do if a rival gang ever ties to topple your empire, or what to say if you meet Frank Siitra. Puzo’s quick reti doesn’t exactly have universal &~&cations. But when CoppoIa sbld out, he threw tid, body, and soul into the bar@n, and ended up infusii Fktzo’s characters and plot with dimensions the author never imagined were there.

avenge the attempted assassination of his father, the don. Michael Corleone had been an introspective, philosophical son, repulsed by the Mafia world in which he had be& raised. Murder was very much against his nature. But, like Prince Hamlet of Denmark, he felt driven by forces of anger and loyalty tieyond his control, and also like the Dane, he had to pay for his transgression, his upsetting the divine order. At the end of 7he Godfather 11 (the first two films seem like one, though they were made two years apart),.Michael is don of a powerful corporation, but is utterly alone. He has lost two brothers, several close frieods, his sister’s respect, his wife’s love, and his own integrity. It is as if he had signed a bstian contract that stipulated he could save the Corleone Family on condition he submit himself to a hell on earth. Comparisons with classical drama are not out of line here. The Corleones are a ruling warrior class, like so many royal clans in Shakespearean and Greek tragedy. Michael’s faI1 from grace is due to a mixture of his own character defects and ca ricious destiny. 7%e Godfoth*& picks up on Michaet at the age of 60, an aging leader who is as anxious to settle up his kingdom and retire as Lear was. And this time, his loss & less intellectual and more personal more prim& tive. .

Tha~&gwdness!Som&i.mesthesy+ tern works. But to dismiss the trilogy on the groun& that it’s full of shootingandkillingisakintos@ngMackh is an immoral play because it features satan-worshipping. The Gotjfather Il;l is different from
the first two. Michael (Al Pacino) is no longer the grim, silent schemer, and there’s more affection and humour between the characters. It’s 1979, and Michael has just been ublicly commended by Vatican o Fecials for his “charity work” He wants to legitimize his conglomeration by linking with the papal company Immobiliare, but to his dismay, he soon discovers that the seat of the _Roman Catholic church is as full of sin as the inner circles of the Mafia. “The higher I go, the crookeder it becomes,” he laments, and his disappointment is profound, for he has spent years in full knowledge of the corruptibility and depravity of* ordinary men, scores of cops, judges, and politicians “on the take.” At the close of his life, he desperately wishes to come to terms with the path he chose, or at least to believe in something outside of himself; but it seems impossible. Meanwhile, Vincent Mancini, the bastard son of Michael’s dead brother SOMY, has been working for enforcer Joey Zasa, and has become fed up with his methods and his ambitions. Vie (Andy Garcia) is ready to commit himself to the Corleone cause. When Joey tries to wrest power away from the Corleones and other Families, Michael enlists Viiie as his right-hand man. Pacino’s - more relaxed,, more human perfo-ce is twice as moving as his ghn, brooding porhayal in the previous &a&them Michael was very serious in those days because there was still a chance for him. He had never had any interest in the business; Having been pushed into taking on the responsibilities of don by circumstance, he tried to persuade himself that he could settle a&irs (murder a few enemies) and still transform the Family to a respectable operation. When hen&& that in trying to be the ideal male rovider and protector he had in Pact destroyed the loved ones it was all for, he came close td ultimate selfknowledge. But, like the thane of GM and Cawdor, he was “so far stepped in blood,” that should he “wade no more, returning were as teclibq as go o’er.” So now, in part III, he is resigned, and manifests his feelings in bursts of ironic humour. Tryins to win Kay (Diane Keaton) back,hegrabsacarvingknifeand holdsit tohisth.roat,tellinghisformer wife to “just say the word.” It’s a mere split+econd, and Kay accepts the gesture as a joke, but it’s the most poignant moment in the film, because l%cino is the kind of actor who spk~ volumes with his body; there is
incredible information in his eyes. Garcia plays off of him. V-e grew up on the streets and on a diet of T.V. violence; he delights in killing for the pure physical release of it. Garcia didn’t seem such a dark-eyed beauty in The Untouchables, where he played an honest guy; he’s sending out vibes from within her& When Vinnie appears at Michael’s formal dinner in a leather blazer, Garcia instantly suffuses the screen with energy. He’s plawg a likable rake, and his violent scenes are casual, flippant. He is meant to be scary on a deeper level: the Corleone dynasty is going to continue because Vinnie passionately wants it to. Like Henry Hill in GoodFeZkn, he ha6 grown to manhood idolizing gangsters. This may be the real reason Michael doesn’t want his daughter, Mary, to get involved with Vinnie. (They’re also first cousins.) Sofia Coppola, the director’s own daughter, was cast as Mary when Winona Ryder dropped out at the last minute under doctor’s orders. Coppola hasreceived a lot of heat over the decision, but his casting is often questioned: he had to fight for both Pacino and Marlon Brando in the original Godfather. He isn’t being nepotistic; he’s following the Italian neo-realist tradition of hiring non-professionals to play themselves. Sofia is herself the daughter of a hous, doting dad, and she has a touching awkwardness and off-kilter beauty that set her apart from the smooth glamour of actresses like Julia Roberts, Madonna, and Iaura San Giacomo, who Were also considered for the part. Admittedly, Sofia is weak in ‘some emotional scenes, such as when she says “No” to her father and storms off. But for the movie to wok, all that Mary really has to be is completely innocent Sofia’s inexperience makes her so. Keaton is less whiiey here, since Kay has gained a great deal of selfrespect by striking out on her own. Consequently, her scenes with

Joe Mantegna,
Eli Wallach, and George Hamilton. Robert Duvall, formerly the Corleone consi’kt?~ is missed, the more so since he has been in more Coppola movies than anybody. (Contract disputes are the depiorable reason for his absence.) Coppola reunites cinematographer Gordon Willis, production - designer Dean Tavoularis, costume designer Milena Canonero, co-writer Puzo, and composer/ conductor Carmine Coppola (his father). With their help, the broad sweep of narrative, the bold reds and golds of the imagery, and the resonant flourishes, like the daring finale at the opera (cross-cut by Barry Malkin, Lisa Fruchtman, and Walter Murch to a dizzying peak) combine to form an exciting tapestry that is both modem and ancient. The film is not without its faults. They range from confusing plot exposition to skimmed-over character details (Has Michael been celibate all this time? Is Vinnie really in love with Mary?). At times Coppola seems to be copying himself too much - the religious parade, the shot of Michael alone at the end, the pattern of violence - and the recapitulations seem cloying.

When People heard our record, they heard the West Indian sounds, and they heard the rapping, so they couldn’t pin us down. The mix comes from the fact that we aw West Indians living in Canada, and that’s something that you can’t just get rid of.

The.Mission, in an attempt to catch the Christmas market, has collected the &ides and outtakes from their last album, Carved in Sand. The problem with this is that Carved in Sand was not a great album to begin with. It was good, but it had some very bad tracks, such as the hideous “Amelia,” the tedious ‘Paradise Will Shine L&e the Moon” and the last track, which is so forgettable, I forget the title. With the original album containing these gems, Grains uf Sand sounds like an ill-fated project to begin with.
The followin songs, ‘me Grip of Disease” and ” %1‘vided we Fall” are also good. After this, it’s all over the place. Some of the tracks are memorable simply because they are-so bad. Songs to avoid include “Love,” which is very possibly the most boring song ever written, and the acoustic vetsion of ‘Butterfly ,on a Wheel.” Also, the Mission gets itself the ‘What the Hell is this?“award for “Mr, Plesant” which is so cut&-fun it belongs on a Bobby McFerrin album. Then there is the list ofcould-havehen tracks. The Mission try there hand at experimental gothic rock and come up with ‘The Sweet Smtie of a Mystery,” “Heaven Sends You,” and ‘Bird of Passage.” The first is a mesh

Well, alm0sf the entire genre. * Most of the credit for the great sound of AmPriKKKa’s Most Wan&d was given to the production of the Bomb Squad, who didn’t twiddle the knobs on this EP. Instead, the work was handled by Lench Mob members Ice Cube, Sir Jinx, and Chilly Chill who must have’spent countless hours in the studio pestering the Shocklee brothers. And it shows; not only is the production seamless, but the variation in songs is fantastic. Most people who hate rap ignorantly dismiss all songs as sounding the same, but even the most ardent rap-hater can tell the difference between “The Product,” which cooks MCs like Pig Championsized portion of bacon, and the mellow, sombre groove of “Dead Homiez” which follows it The biggest letdown about thisrecord is the volume of filler on it “Jackin’ For Beats,” which strings together beats from EPMD, public &my, Digital Underground and LL Cool J, sounds great at first, but the noveltv , auicklv wears off as the a ’ song’s lal& o”if substance shows through.

A good starting point for an introduction to jazz is to find some common mound. somewh<;e to beEin exPlorine. Most deoDle, if thev have heard anv raz al ill, have heard b% banb in s&e w&o; dr anoiher (not aU a& necessariIy good.) This kind of jazz developed in the twenties, had its hevdav i6 tLe thirties and Detered out in the forties when other forms I&am; more prominent anh economicaL It is still a very influential form and one that produced many greats in the jazz canon. An excellent disc to get a good overview of this period is one from the Columbia Jazz Masterpieces series, ” 1930’s Big Bands.” The album includes cuts from most of the major players in the thirties and demonstrates the intermingling that OCCUIS behveeniazz musicians that is unlike any other musical g&r; Besides featuring w&known names like Duke Ellingttin and Count B&ie the disc has the Blue Rhythm Band, Ben Pollack and Claude Hopkins. But where to start? Big band music does not necessarily imply a huge orchestra, many groups numbered only seven or eight players in the early twenties. What came to be called the typical big band arrangement developed when it was discovered that reed instruments sounded more impressive when thev played pre-arranged harmonies. This led to a three s&/three bra& line u6 &ith a f&r piece Rhythm section in the mid-twenties and was enlarged with additional saxophones and brass. In this environmentimProvised solos were encouraked and were seen to enhance the ensembl& over-all presentation. This-allowed a great deal of devebpment in solo work &d created many excellent sin&lar players who became important to jazz in the hte forties and fifties. , The CD opens with a cut from the Casa Loti Orchestra, led by Henry Biagini but master-minded by Glen Gray, its alto saxophone play&. From the5 sound it’s hard to tell that they are ail white player& ones*wh*o built up immensely the popularity of jazz in middle Ameeca. They incorporate Dixieland fixtures (which were garnered at the time from musicians who had migrated north to Chicago from New Orleans). This Chicago style influenced nearby Detroit where the Casa Lomans got started. The selection, “San Sue Strut” is typical of early big band of the t&ties which paved the way for the swing stylings later in thddecade. I Of the mbre?nteresting tracks are Cab Calloway’s “The Man From Harlem” which demonstr$es the place of vocaIs and &ban commentary in the big band sound. As well, the selections from Count Basic, Duke Ellingtin and Benny Goodman are representative of their earIy work and help-reveal how th&e was not a spec&ic sound to which these musi@ans bent to but how these musicians bent swing to fit what they wanted to say; in sum a wide spectrum of tastes and expressions are -displayed by- the album. The chronological progression that occurs, with the first cut Tom 1930 and the last fro.n?193$, d&elops the changes within the fork and where it: ended up at the end of the thirties. All in all a very good disc. Jumping tq the present, let’s examine a new release from A&M, Don Cherry’s Mu/tic&i. Twelve tracks of experimentation with a variety of indigenous cultural music are presented in excellent mix. This die is quite demonstrative of how far jazz has dtised and grown. The structure is interesting, Cherry plays a solo instrument pieceP everything from his infamous pocket trumpet to exotic melodica and dovssn” gouni, with full band pieces placed in between. The entire aibum’is knitted together like this for extended listening pleasure. The album features not only Cherry’s superb playing but clear and concise playing from Peter Apfelbaum, Ed BladkweIl and the rest of Cherry’s Hieroglyphics Ensemble. Of particular note are Cherry’s short solo treats and “Rhumba Multiculti”, which demonstrates the over-all mood of the album, the synthesis of music from several different cultural sources. The piece uses modal jazz solo, Latin PO&rhythms, west African harmonies and European vocalization spiced with the patented Sout&m State’s call and response. Clearly 4 fine project. .’

hip-hop eminence, From the opening found voices, to the close of the album, The Devil Made Me Do It is brimming with musical ideas which are both inventive and titaniumtough. The most obvious comparison to the growling rap of Paris would be Rakim {of Eric 8. and . . .), but Paris engages in little or no selfaggrandisment, instead focussing upon social ills - like racist skinhead intolerance or oppression of blacks. The focus upon issues of race extends to the inner sleeve which instead of reproducing the lyrics, features a sort of Afro-American History 101, with paragraphs on, among others, Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, and the Black Panthers. tn the majvrity, Z%e Dali! Mgde Me Do It is dense and uninviting. . . but then that’s always been the point of musics like rap, heavy metal, and punk, which speak and appeal to marginalized segments of our society, Rap speaks in musical cipher, in an esoteric language far removed from the csnventional language of pop music. Flaccid song-and-dance men like MC Hammer and VaniIla Ice have adulterated the form enough to allow their product to slip into the mainstream and though there is a certain membrane of fascism which envelops purism of any sort, this is an album to satisfy purists, and is better for it,
