Western robs Waterloo of sure win Warriors rack up 430 yards, but can't hold 10-point lead What do the Waterloo Warriors need to do to beat the Western Mustangs?
Sice 197I.Western has beatenWaterloo 24 times and tied them once. But few lases wereas painfulas last Saturday's 26-22 decision at J.W. Little Stadium in London. For most of the game. the Warriors dominated play and led on the scoreboard. They were up by as much as ten points late in the game, but could not hang on. W i 213 to play, the Mustangs' Tim Tm&le busted loose up the middle for a 68yard touchdown to put U W O ahead, capping off a I7-point fourth quarter. "The defence gave up some bigplaysand we had some penalties that hurt us," said UW head coach Dave "Tuffy" Knight The Warriors (1-2) seek to rebound on Saturday, October 2 (tomorrow) when they host the McMaster Marauders (1-2) at
Seagnm Sadium at 2 p.m. (see preview on Page 15). The Marauders w e n edged 25-20 by the nationally ranked Universityof Toronto Vanity Blues last Saturday in Hamikon. In other OUAA action, the Wtlfrid Laurier Golden Hawks thumped the Guelph Gryphons 33- 14andthe Univers@ofWindsor finally put the York Yeomen in the record books with a 36- 10 pasting. York now has sole posscsshxl of the Canadian university record for tohsecutive losses. 34. Waterloo's teams of L984-89 had held the record at 33. In London, Waterloo had its best allPound offensive performance in recent memory, ringing up 430yards in net offence. This total was buoyed by a 56-yard touchdown catch by wideout Adrian Thorne and 5 44-yard touchdown run by hllback Mike Mallot Thome's second-quarter T D gave UW an 11-3 lead, while Mallot's run put the Warriors ahead 19-9 late in the third quar-
ter.

But the 'Stangs rallied in the fourth, first with quarterback Warren Goldie, standing in for the injund Eric Ursic, passingten yards to Stuart Beak, and finally with Tm&le1s run. Between these majors, the teams traded field goals. Mallot was W s offensive hero with 1 15 rushing yards on I 8 carries, plus four receptions for 85 yards. (Mallot is fifth in OUAA rushing with 254 yards and a 7.1 'ydrds-per-rush average.) Quarterback Steve Bennet opened up a rusty passing game, completing l l-of-21 passesfor 230yards (his best yardagetotal as a Warrior) and two touchdowns. He also carried seven times for 64 yards. His other major receiving target was Gord Fawcettwithfour catches for 68yards. Tailback Jarret Smith could not repeat his success of the second half of the York game, finishing with only 21 yards on 9 carries. But Tindale stole the show. His game-
winning T D capped a 142-yard rushing performance. Battery-mate Sean Reade contributed 54 yards on 9 carries. Waterloo's defence did a good job of pressuring Goldie, limiting him to 12 completions on 28 attempts. but many of those completions were big plays, as he finished with I76 yards passing. Defensive end Brad Harris led the UW defencewith IItacklesandfour quarterback hurries, three of those veritable pancakings of Goldie. Mustangs Sandy McGregor, Kevin Foster, and Reade all had big catches to help Western maintain offensive momentum. Despite the 'Stangs' 384 net yards, Waterloo is still in.first in yards allowed in the conference. Warrior punter Rick Guenther suffered a slight dip in yards-per-punt (3 1.8). but still has the third-best average in the OUAA (36.1) behind Laurier's Pat O'Leary and Mustang Frank Jagas.

Stressed or depressed? These complaints are not as uncommon as you may think. Canada has one ofthe highest suicide rates in the world. The rate of stressed UW students is on the rise. The usual preThanksgiving influx cannot solely account for this trend, however. According to Health and Safety nurse Carol Hea, a person who is severely stressed for a long period of time is more prone to illness. Such is the case with students before exams and with the onset of a new school term. “The immune system becomes depressed and the body doesn’t produce the normal antibodies to combat diseases,” related Hea. The most common of these are flus and colds. Ulcers seem to have more complex causes.
for a waiting list has emerged at UW Counselling Services. As many as fifty students may be waiting for appointments by midterm exams. UW Counselling Services staff has been cut by half since the 1970’5 despite the steady rise of student demand. “We get the most students coming in mid-October,” said UW counsellor Jack Williams. “That’s after they get their mid-term results.”
Demand for counselling setsices decreases, and does not dramatically rise again following midterms, even during final exams. According to Williams, the students who do come during final exams are often severely stressed. Although the need for help has increased, UW Counselling Services are unable to offer unlimited aid any longer. Couples are now referred to other help organizations and group
sessions are replacing individual ones. Sessions are limited to ten people per term. However, those in severe crises are never turned away. The Counselling Office is situated across from the Registrar’s in Needles Hall. Health and Safety is the white building across the creek from the Campus Centre. Another place to turn to is the Help Line. Call PALS at 888-4840.
Canada has one of the highest suicide rates in the worki Hea emphasized wellbeing to relieve the negative effects of stress. “Students should try to keep up good eating habits, instead of just snacking on junk food during times like exams. Sleep and exercise are also important,” explained Hea. just into the fall term, the need

York’s program, Lisa Imprint
Sutttm stm
Another victim of dreaded budget-cuts is claimed. York University’s popular honours creative writing program will suffer drastically as faculty and courses are cut backs, which will make admission to the sought after program even more rigorous. Several courses and sections have been discontinued because of budget restrictions. The most extreme effects though, are faculg cutbacks. The full-time faculty that was once I? in 1979, has been reduced to 2. Close to 250 students are involved in creative writing courses at York but only about I50 are enrolled in the creative writing honours programme. After the budget cuts, #hose numbers will drop significantly. YorkUniversity’s creative writing programme is one of only nine such writing programs in Canada. Only three other schools offer creative writing in Ontario: Laurentian
creative a budget
University, University of Windsor and University of Wawloo, York, however, is distinctly one of Ontario’s premiere creative writing schools. York’s reputation of having a first-class program for aspiring writers is highly regarded across Canada. Historically,the program is one of the oldest and most stringent The rigid admission standards sepa rate the creative writing student population intotwocategories;those who write and those who devote themselves to their work Although any student at York may enrol in creative writing courses, to major in creative writing demands total devotion. The program looks for people who are serious about writing and the entrance requirements reflect this.
Students are required to submit a portfolio of poetry and prose which determines their admittance into a requisite second year creative writing course. The course, along with a formal admission portfolio, then determines admittance into the honours program.
writing cut victim
The programme is designed to advance writing skills of students , encouraging them to become exceptional writers. The department’s aim is to acquaint students with the various ways of writing which leading writers of our time have made possible. “The program is excellent A lotofgo4 writers havegonethrough the program and gone on to do their MJL’s at other universities,” said full-time creative writing instructor, Don Summerhayes, reported The Grcalibur. The costs to run this program are extremely high because the stu
dent to teacher ratio has to be low. Courses are small because of the interaction that must go on between the instructor and the student to make the classes worthwhile. “The courses are highly labour int.e!nsive,” said Summerhayef. The shortage of program spaces and the flood of students into second year courses will force admission numbers down and the admission requirements up. Future creative writing SWdents who are heart-set on York may have to consider attending another
institution.

Waste not, want not ,bg Tusha La&man special to Imprint Reduce, reuse, recycle. In the Region of Waterloo this slogan will become a way of life over the next few years. A proposed Waste Reduction Master Plan (VVRMP) is aiming to reduce waste by 50% with cost efficient recommendations by the year 2000. WRM P actively involves all levels of the community including residents, businesses, and school boards. “It’s a unique process that they went through... [ft was] put together by people for people,” said Faculty member of Urban Planning in Environmental Studies Murray Haight, who sat
on the original Master Plan committee in the ea~fy eighties. “It’s the best value for the taxpay ers dollar,” expressed WRMP Commercial Coordinator Marilyn Hill of the Master Plan. WRMP recommendations stress the hierarchy of the three “R’S”, emphasiring reduction, and reuse, before recycling. One of the plan recommendations that is of primary importance is the implementation of a garbage user fee. Homeowners will be charged for the garbage they produce. Municipalfundingforgarbage collection will then be eliminated from taxes. Ideally, the fee would then lead to a greater awareness regarding the

amount of garbage generated and reduce garbage output overall. Simultaneously, people will be encouraged to use their blue boxes and backyard composters, which will be provided at no cost. Education will be an intepl part of the plan, including distribution of household kits about composting, recycling and other reduction issues. More activities promoting ecological behavior will be introduced into the elementary school curriculum. Composting and recycling will be expanded both at the residential and industrial levels. In addition, the Region hopes to expand the market for recycled goods and is encouraging legislation changes
to reduce packaging. All those involved in WRMP were asked to give ideas concerning methods of waste reduction. Selected suggestions presented were combined and others eliminated using specific committee criteria. The Executive Committee haveagreed upon 28 recommendations.

Sometimes there is not enough to breath or speak. The offtce located in Campus Centre 206 is currently shared by the Legal Resource mce, the Student Parttime Employment Info Centre (SPEC), and the Student Volunteer Centre. According to Coordinator of the Legal Resource Office Kevin Lanctot, some of the cases dealt with in the Legal Resources Office require co& dentiality. When in conversation with clients who require acoustic privacy, Lanctot is obliged to ask people who are using other services to leave the office. In some cases, people have had to wait up to an hour to re-enter the ofice. “Sharing the office with just the Volunteer Centre was not a problem because both organizations have a small enough clientelle that office hours can room
be staggered,” noted Lanctot. Since SPEC moved into the room, a larger volume of people enter the office making it impossible to alternate office hours. Lanctot related the problem. “The Feds underestimated the volume of people that come to SPEC looking for jobs,” he said. SPEC is an organization that started up in the fall of 1992. The Centre did not have any official office space last year, and therefore moved into CC206 and amalgomated with the Student Volunteer Centre this fall. Vice Presidentof Financial George Van Nooten says the limited office space is “beyond our control” and “we’re waiting for the expansion of the Campus Centre to take place.” The expansion of the Campus Centre will provide clubs and organizations with increased office space and organizations that are currently sharing office space will have better resources,

Teaching the Educated to Read! The main cause of student drop-out is stress stress over not having assignments finished, stress over not staying “caught-up” with the class, and stress over the realization that just staying “caughtup” isn’t going to be good enough. 1993 was the worst year in history for students getting jobs right out of college, and this next year looks even worse. It isn’t always the smartest students who get the best grades, but it is always the best readers - the ones who can get the most out of their books on their own. Simply getting through your reading assignments will only give you the minimum that your professor requires to pass you. Just passing your courses isn’t going to be good enough anymore.

hen I was just a wee frosh, living in residence, I used to look around the TV lounge of that same res and ask myself, as those other people got excited about Star Trek or Santa Barbara or whatever it was they were watching, and think, what the hell are these people doing at university if they’d cather get happy overjean Luc than whatever t was they were studying. Why did they not thirst for the knowledge I did, why did I thirst that knowledge rather than the intricacies of the holodeck! I didn’t feel that everyone else belonged at the same university that I did (I’ll get off my >ulpit soon oh dear reader, please be patient). well, now that has all changed. Sometime around the middle of third rear I began to wonder just why anyone cared about what they were studying when there Nere so many other unconventional avenues :o explore. Why did anyone care more about nolecular physics or computer programming :han basic ontology (who the hell am I, how did I get this way, and why?). Maybe I was just disillusioned with uni-; versity in general, but this past week, I’ve realized, with the help of countless strangers, tihy all that was. On Monday night I went out to Fed Hall to see this “one-man-sex-show” I Don’t Un3erstmJ Women. On Wednesday I checked out the career Fair in the PAC. Both of these events have sparked within ne an idea. The sex show was as base an undertaking 3s I’m Ii kely to see this year. Not only was the content aimed at those with a juvenile understanding of sexual politics and interaction, but :he acting was second rate and beneath the :ubject matter. “Clit class IO1 ” was more of In excuse to stick his crotch in the face of an Insuspecdng audience member, than an at.empt at instructing men (or women) the iner technique of cunnilingus. I didn’t feet educated, just misinterpreted and very slightly Imused. The campus career fest, on the other land, was a serious affair, as everyone from he police to Hostess, to UW, to Microsoft attempted to lure me into their employment bid. Thing was though, of all the displays, lone of them seemed to beckon journalists/ lack philosophers/professional writers. I felt LS if I needed to be an engine&computer whiz/business minded/pure math major in order to be counted in as a member of the arget audience. Once again I was alienated from the lroceedings. What fiper way to feel a part of he university community. So, as the realization of my continued nsignificance igr this professional/co-op camIUS poured into my brain like a OAC calculus :f(n)=x as n approaches infinity) question, I ‘elt quite un-at-home. I now surmise that I wasn’t really born to Ittend this university after all, even though I ind myself here. But that is okay because I’ll ust assert my differences and attempt to join :orces with hose like me, those lost in the JW sea. But you know, we’re not really any setter than everyone else, better than the masses gathered around the lV each afterboon and evening - we’re just different, that’s rll. And I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, lnd gosh darn it, at least my friends like me. And that last sentence is only slightly ronic.

ver hehepast several weeks, some of the less devout here at Imprint @cc have voiced their concerns about Religionand F&b in the Twentieth Gntury and The Qur’un Speaks, Imprint’s religious columns. The complaints, 1find, to be for the most part reasonable and w&l! directed. This week, I will devote my attention solely to The Qur’an Specks, and hope to deal with Religionand faith at another time. Since its acceptance as a column this summer, it has devoutly adhered to its title, and proSri&d the reader with nothing less than an understanding af the lsiamic holy book It has also provided the reader with nothing more. The column is, for the most part, completely rreIev&t to most if not all non-Muslim students attendng this University. Anyone may visit the Dana Porter
library to find numerous commentaries on the Qur’an.The column fails to present a new or useful account of the relationship (if any) of the Islamic holy book to the situation in the Middte East. Any column which purported to relate to Islam yet made no comment on th+ recent peace treaty between the state of Israel and the PLO. should justfiably be laughed out onto the street.

The article states that every secular Muslim state from North Africa to the Persian Gulf faces a challenge from radical fundamentalists.
Christian bible) the actual status of women in Islam is another matter entirely. Iran and other Muslim nations
are notorious for treating women as property rather than human beings, yet no justification for this is suggested by the column. This month, 8angladeshinovelist Tasiima Nasreen was condemned to death by the Council of Soldiers of Islam, who have offered $ I250toanyone who kills her. Her recent book Shame was about the recent HinduMuslim conflicts in India and she has of&en attacked Muslim fundamentalists and chauvinism. There is, of course, the related case of Salman Rushdie, who still carries a price on his head exacted by the Ayatollah Khomeni. These are the issues that should be, indeed must be, dealt with if the Q&an and Islam are to offer anything to Waterloo’s students. The stock response may be that the column is devoted strictly to the Qur’an itself, and not the Isiamic religion as a whole, nor the fundamental fringe which receives the most press, but it is this kind of narrowmindedness and complete avoidance of the issues that allows the irrelevance of The Qur’un Speaks to go unchecked. Sameh E. Rehan has, of course, as much right to write The Qor’an Speaks as I do Puran~iu, but I am still entitled to criticize it, as he I. When I say irrelevance, I don’t mean to implythat the column has no relevance to some Muslims, or even most Muslims, it is irrelevant in that it refuses to disc&s Literary blasphemer and those most impomnt issues in which the Muslim world heretic, Salman Rushdie. is embroiled today, even if only to refute the attention people like myself pay to the unsavoury side of Islam.

Lecture Yes, Jello no ‘You’ve got your books, now go read’em. Wisdom is ignorance, StupidiT, I call it freedom” - Paul Westerberg To the editor: There really is nothing like the view from above, or talking down to the masses, for that matter. But opinions it is you want, Mr. Bryson, so opinions you get. The University of Waterloo is the original product-oriented, Canadian University. Product in the sense that the liberal-minded founders interpreted it, during the onward and upward sixties. Now, retro fashions aside, I968 it is not Nevertheless the product approach has stuck. Through / those gloriously materialistic eighties, the crash of ‘PI, right through today, the model of the year has roiled out of UW’S door. To the system’s credit, the product approach has kept UW out of the Jurassic Graveyard of the U of Ts and UWOs of the world. Perhaps more importantly it has kept a decent percentage of UW grads employed. On the other hand, products are ideal for analysis, but hardly a model citizen when it comes to creativity, synthesis, or even free will. Practically, this means that whilst distaste and anger may bubble, they will never boil over. But then it is rather obvious what the priorities are, isn’t it. Universities are no longer institutions of higher learning. They are glorified trade schools, with silly Latin mottoes to remind them of the good old days when profs could hold their noses up without argument. It is pathetic that we pay tuition of $ I ,OOO-$1,500 a term so that on graduation some industry paper pusher can urge us to start up our own business

that is not safe. They could show us we were wrong, and that’s the one thing we can’t be. It might lower our selfconfidence for that all-important job interview. As for cerebral jelly, I don’t much like your talking down to the masses, Mr. Bryson, even if it is witty and satirical, but cerebral jelly it is not. There is likely a reason that you are the editor of the Imprint. Of course, that does not prevent you from producing the wider shade of grey gruel that fills the majority of Imprint’s pages. So please, don’t lecture; write, you’re likely quite good at it As you so aptly point out., there is plenty we should be saying and hearing.

Fak off apathetic classmates To the editor: There I was in my Classical Studies classroom. It was an outrageous 9:32 and Professor Faber coerced me into a public confession of my two names for being late. This I did not mind. In fact, it sent my Friday into a rip-roaring exploration of my role as student here at Waterloo. I felt as if I knew Professor Faber scintillating well. This is unusual, as most professors can only watch us shuffling between these mortal coils some call lectures with nary an eye contact. This has amazed and intrigued me these past four years here. Anyhoo, when Professor Faber asked a question, a simple and banal one, I sat back and looked at everyone sitting back and looking at everyone and asked myself “How long can this go on before someone gets the muster up and answers the question.” The question lingered, bleeding in the air in front of us all. A few furtiveencouragements from Faber forced me to think “Aw, piss on it”, and I answered the question. , 3 And the next one. And 0 the next one. I was then chagrined to notice that my classmates were regarding me as if I had three heads or something. “Aw, piss on them”, I thought “Professor Faber knows who I am”. Maybe I should be late more often. And then I read your Metaphysical Education, and how you called everyone a “bunch of fucking apathetic losers”. This made me smile with unconstrained joy. I even laughed out loud in the Arts Coffee Shop, where the patrons there too looked at me like I had four heads. “Aw, piss on it”, I thought. “I’d rather be a killer than a victim”. The point of this drivel is to say that people these days have taken to a new philosophy where apathy and in-

because industry has been packed off to Mexico. On average, a graduate student makes $12,000 a year, while a mature engineer (i.e. manager) in the oil industry rakes in a clean $l20,000. It is even more pathetic that we do not ask the idiots in charge (likely en route to a disgraceful re-election) how they dare do this. Then again, we are hardly a united student body; Divided along faculty lines from day one, Bornbarded by conformist groups from nose-ringed “rebels”, to nascent establishment men/women that Goebbels would be proud of, Marginalized by student associations (again divided along faculty lines) whoseglorified high-school student councils insult the intelligence and/or good taste of all but the bureaucrats in training who make them up. So the question of our being apathetic losers is really quite irrelevant, Mr. Bryson. See, we all have our places to go.

This lost generation is beyond redemption, if you ask me. The only things we’ll get out of the 90’s are a few Cyberpunk writers and a global village. <PIah>. This mentality of mine is all the fault of a 3 I year old roving Australian fuckhead named Doogal Farquhar. I made his good acquaintance this past summer, and despite my relatively tender years he taught me many things while getting blind tight over boatloads of Scrabble. He taught me how to say “Piss on it”, for example. In return for his lessons in hammock making, baseball strategy, tirehouse building and proper mechanics of a sledge hammer, I taught him the fine art of getting drunk as gods and diving into the Port Elgin harbour. So this has turned out to be my Public Gratitude to Doog Farquhar, Professor Faber, and Ken Bryson. And should an apathetic anyone dislike this little pocketful offlowers then, as Doog might say, “FAK OFF UGLY!” Sincerely,

I am writing in response to the article “Religion & Faith in the 20& Century: Suicide”. The whole subject of suicide and depression is pretty large, and I think that maybe a few extra points should be made about it, First of all, I’d like to say that I can really relate with Earl’s story. Lord knows I’ve been there often enough
myself. He mentions “the prescription from that so-called doctor”, which reminds me of a friend of mine. His doctor put him on the wrong medication (I don’t know whether it was the wrong dosage or a bad reaction to the right dosage), and he had fits of hyperness and phobia. Eventually, they switched him to something less effective because the depression wasn’t as bad as the side effects of the medication. Stories like that, and fears about confidentiality, are some of the reasons why so many depressed people do not seek medical help. In my opinion, though, the potential benefits of seeking treatment far outweigh the risks. Go to a doctor, tell him that you’ve been feeling depressed. Arrange for a blood test, and make sure that they check for thyroid problems and mononucleosis (both ofwhich are common causes of chronic depression). Even if all the tests come back negative, there are many forms of antidepressant medication that might be able to help you (but note that these don’t always work). If that doesn’t work, therapy is another option. Above all, if your doctor doesn’t take yaw seriously or if you don’t think you can trust him, find another doctor. It’s as simple as that. I’ve been on the antidepressant Amitryptilene for a few months now, and let me tell you that I’ve never felt this stable in my entire life. I actually w&t to get out of bed in the morning, and the thought of being surrounded by total strangers all day doesn’t terrify me like it used to. Admittedly, my life is still far from perfect, but now I think I’m better able to deal with it. I feel good, Once again, if you’re depressed, get help. Trust me, you’ll thank yourself for it. Yours Topolistically, joeb Hewitt

I am glad that the Imprint has not been “swamped by letters from irate, ‘ideologically entrenched’ students”. A student paper should allow its writers to introducenew ideas and concepts to students* Is it not better that the writers be free to express themselves, without having to first chip away at some fanciful ideology? With your comment: “Does university life really promote free thought and discussion of ideas relevant to the very existence of our civilization?” Come on Ken, who is entrenched in ideology here? Your “top five stories” seem a feeble threat. Why not use them? Use them as opinion catalysts. You’ve never been afraid of controversy before, May I warn you not to alienate the few readers Imprint does have? The Imprint has not been “swamped by letters” because nobody is reading it Look at the piles of issues still bound together outside the Imprint ofice. “You are all a bunch of apathetic losers” is a juvenile and unprofessional attempt to incite a mob to action. But, do you really have the numbers necessary to incite a mob to action? If you want playground rules, let’s play* Ken, I DARE YOU to run those stories I do not believe that your column is “a load of cerebral jello”, but if you want to incite people to something, make sure you know what you are inciting them

Now that you appear to have completed your self-proclaimed mission to point out to us poor, ignorant, not to mention apathetic students how we should really be more like you (i-e, spouting off to hear ourselves talk!) at least for this week - may I interject?

To the editor:
I have had about enough of the “Religion and Faith in the 20th Century” column, presented by the UW Student Christian Movement. For the last two issues this column has consisted of short autobiographical accounts of the author’s expriences as they attempt to struggle with the absurdity and disallusionment of the human condition. While the questions they raise are indeed important and deserve discussion in light of the Christian faith, the authors offer no hint of conviction or enlightenment to the answers found in the faith they profess. The reader is simply left to share in the isolation and lostness apparently enjoyed by the authors; Listen guys, there is value in raising such existential issues, but if you are doing it only to romanticize spiritual poverty give it up! God has no pleasure in seeing you wrestle with truth and avoid conclusion! Remember Isaiah 66:9, where God asks rhetorically: “Do I bring to the moment of birth and not give delivery!” Please, for your sake and others, decide what your purpose is and who it is that you serve, or change the name of your organization.

In this series, I will be exploring various ideas from Star Trek and applying them to our world of the twentieth century. The title of the series is from the lyrics to the original Star Trek theme song. (ues, there are lyrics. Gene Roddenberty wrote them.) I will briefly introduce a topic in each article. I hope the articles will setve as a starting point for further conversatioh. My interpretations are just that: interpretations. You are always welcome to disagree. In one sense, Star Trek really isn’t about the future: it’s about us. It has been said that we can’t--no matter how hard we tty--imagine what the future will hold. (I doubt if anyone living in the nineteenth century imagined anything like virtual reality). Science fiction can only attempt to extrapolate from what we have now and place twentieth century humans in that contllxtFor many people, what makes Star Trek great is its hope, its optimism, its assertion that humanity will have a future. It is not a utopian vision, but it is a positive one. Our crew (pick your favourite if you must--l will be using examples from all three) is notperfect, but they have overcome some of the problems that plague our society. One

The frequently
opposing viewpoints of Speck and McCoy help Kirk to make important decisions. (I don’t believe a single person should make important decisions, but that’s another story). Whether or not aliens really exist, we can learn something from the aliens on Star Trek. Each alien species has its own way of doing things that the others respect, even if they don’t understand it. This is the philosophy of IDIC: Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations. Often we don’t have “villains” in Star Trek. Instead, we have beings who have reasons for doing what they do. A good example is the t-lot% in “The Devil in the Dark” who was killing people to try to protect her unborn children. Miners were destroyingwhat looked to them like spheroid rocks, but were actually eggs containing baby Hortas. Kirk decides to ask questions before firing, and is rewarded by discovering a new sentient life form. Contrary to many popular movies, no one is all good or all bad. (Even the Borg. have their good qualities). In some episodes, however, our crew virtually ignore IDIC and proceeds to convince the aljens (or give them no choice) that the human way is right- Kirk is obviously a firm believer in the Federation (American?) way, and on more than one occasion topples societies that don’t conform to his standards. We have seen Kirk, Wotf, and Kira overconie their hatred of, respectively, all Klingons, Romulans, and Cardassians, In Star Trek VI Kirk real-

izes that he is prejudiced against Klingons; once he realizes it, he can start to change. Chancellor Gorkon knows that inertia is a powerful force; the generation that grows up believing in the evilness of their enemies has the hardest time adjusting to new realities. If 23rd and 24th century humans work with and respect aliens vastly different from themselves, surely we can do the same with humans with whom we have a great deal in common. We probably don’t think that we’re prejudiced at all. But we have grown up doing things a cemin way. We may assume that our way is the right way&St because other people do things differently doesn’t mean their ways are inferior. (There are multiple methods of removing the external covering of a feline.) Other ways may not work for us, but if we learn about them we won’t fear them. We will always conflict with people whose views differ from our own. Instead of immediately rejectingtheir views, however, we should learn about them. Sometimes we will change our own views, sometimes we will convince others to change, and sometimes we will live with people who do things differently. Of course, some of us must work against some things that others do because our conscience allows us to do no less. If everyone was the same, it would be.a boring world. Ctinflict will always be wil% us, but if we uncIersrancJ where our neighbours are coming from, we won’t be as quick to judge them merely because they are different We shouldn’t just tolerate differences, but celebrate the magnificent diversity of humanity.

6 CONVENIENT LOCATION SERVING K-W “For a Christian the oath of allegiance to any government whatever is the direct negation of Christianity.“. -Leo Tolstoy
It is my opinion that the politically speaking Jesus Christ was an anarchist I believe the records are so blatantly in favour of this view that I cannot understand how the Christian Church, which has so ofeen aligned itself with the State conception of life, has perpetuated the status quo. There are many places in the Gospels where Christ’s anarchist tendencies are evident. I shall highlight only a few. Prior to his public life as a teacher, Jesus was sent to the desert alone to go through a spiritual cleansing. During this period Jesus is tempted by Satan (representative of political power) to have control over all the earth’s kingdoms. Jesus rebukes and rejects Satan on this point showing us that his ministry was to turn the State conception of life, which is based on coercion, on its head - not to legitimize its existence. Like all reasonable anarchists, Jesus sees laws and organization not as ends in themselves to control human beings, but as mere conventions like driving on the right side of the road which help us live socially together+ Hence “the law is made for people, not people for the law,” and the greatest of all laws is to love, which has no boundaries. Jesus is constantly criticizing those state conventions which enslave us as human beings
883-5050
and do not allow us to trust our neighbours. Money is one such form of slavery, for with it we quantify things which are unquantifiable and eventually we end up quantifying the human being which is repugnant and alienating. Jesus most assuredly saw the danger of taking money too far and considered its ultimate ownership to be with the corrupt Caesar not with God. The condemnation jesus has for the religious institutions of his own day offer us an insight into how any institution can stifle and kill the human experience. Jesus believed that the Truth and Spirit of God was available to all people, that true religion was found in the human heart, and that the institutions were often against the very God they claimed to be for. Jesus believed this enough to say that he himself was “the Truth.” There are many more examples of Jesus’ teachings which point to his political opinions, but I beleive it is even more so his life example which shows this to us. He constantly broke through taboos and prejudices of his own time without fear, and felt authoritative enough to put himself and his own truth above the law. The greatest test of Jesus’ political position as a spiritual position comes when he stares Pontius Pilate, the representative of Rome (and death), in the face and exclaims, “My Kingdom is not of this world.” In short., Jesus Christ was an anarchist.

Punishment
fn Islam
by Sameh E. Rehan Crime is often regarded as an individual aggression against the community and therefore the concept of crime and punishment is closely connected to the nation’s concept of the relationship between the individual and the community. The Capitalist states regard the individual as the center of all social life and try to give him/ her full freedom. As criminals are considered victims of corrupted circumstances, psychologiml complexes, and nemous disorders which they could not overcome, people sympathize with them and treat them kindly. This school of thought regards a criminal as a passive creature with no freedom of will or action and who is the victim of general and personal circumstances amidst which s/he was brought up. On the other hand, Communism refers offenses and crimes to economic rather than psychological considerations. No doubt, both individualistic and Communist conceptions are partly true. Circumstances surrounding an individual have a great effect on her/his constitution, and subconscious complexes may sometimes lead to crime. But humans are not completely passive beings in confronting such circumstances. Both systems ignore the controlling energy which is quite inherent in every human and can control his/her emotions and actions. In Islam, tie main question is that before deciding whether or not a criminal should be punished, we must determine the extent of her/his responsibility for the offense s/he committed after examining ail circumstances connected with the crime. Islam prescribes that a thiefs hand should be cut, but such punishment is never inflicted when there is the slightest doubt that the thief was impelled to crime by hunger. This is evident from what happened in the year of famine duringthe time ofthe second Islamic Governer (Caliph) w h o is considered one of the most

prominent legislators of Islam and who is known for his strict rigidity in enforcing the rules of Islamic Laws. He did NOT mrry out the punishment prescribed for theft during the year of famine when there was some doubt that people might be impelled to theft by hunger. This illustrates the clear principle that punishment will not be inflicted where there are circumstances which forced the wrong doer to commit the crime. This principle is supported by the saying of Prophet Muhammad: ‘Avoid the execution of punishment by doubt’ In fact, Islam tries in the first place to purify society from circumstances that may lead to crime. After taking such precautions, Islam prescribes preventive just punishments for persons who have no reasonable justification or excuse for their crimes, For example, Islam precludes and prevents all possible motives for robbery. It strives to ensure a fair distribution of wealth (please refer to last week’s article). The Islamic state is responsible for the support of every citizen, regardless of her/his religion, race, color, or social status. The state has to ensure decent work for all citizens. Where work is not available, or if an individual is incapable of working, aid will be given to him/her from the public treasury. The fact that the punishment for theft has been executed only SIX times throughout a period of-FOUR HUNDRED years is clearly evidence that such punishment is primarily meant to prevent crime. In reality, it DID prevent the crime! This article is excerpted from the Islamic bodk ‘Lessons on Islam’ by Dr. Abu-Bakr ElSayed, University of Kuwait, Kuwait.

Taiwan seems to be one of those mysterious countries that no one knows much about, except that a lot of electronic and accessory goods are notoriously stamped “Made in Taiwan.” Someone asked me if accessories and junk bought in Taiwan are stamped “Made in Canada.” Not quite. The truth remains that Taiwan is a very misunderstood place in the West. Quick -- try finding it on a map! Taiwan is a newly developed nation on the Pacific Rim often ranked with South Korea, Hong Kong, and Singapore as Asia’s Little Dragons -that would be economic dragons. This little island of twenty million people is about as long as a drive from Toronto to Sarnia and not even as wide as the world’s largest foreign exchange. Despite its small size, it has an incredibly vital economy. While Canada, the U.S., Europe and japan are in a heavy economic slump, Taiwan has barely been touched by this. Business in the special economic zones of China are booming, largely with Taiwanese investment. This probably raises a tough question: what is the difference between Taiwan and China? China is officially named the People’s Republic of China (PRC), while Taiwan is the Republic of China (ROC), More informally, the two are known as Communist China and Nationalist China. The short history of the region goes approximately as follows: the early twentieth century saw the fall of he Qing dynasty and the&be_ ginning of a half century of turmoil in China. Chitia is large enough that gekrals could control large parts of it with impunity, which led to an age of warlordism, that also included Western (American, French, German, and Japanese) spheres of influence. On October IO, I9 I I, Dr. Sun Yet-sen established the Republic of China through his Nationalist party the Kuo Min Tang (KMT), which after his death was controlled by Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, In ttying to establish the ROC, Chiang had to fight the growing influence of the Communist forces as well as Japanese invaders. Japan was defeated in I945, but by this time the Communists had gained enough strength by mobilizingthe peasantry to challenge the KMT. A bloody civil war was fought between I947 and 1949, which forced the Nationalist armies and the government to retreat to the island of Taiwan with the entire gold of the Chinese reserve, as well as counttess priceless treasures from the Imperial Palace. From I949 on, the ROC has maintained its island fortress as well as its claim to be the legitimate government of all of China, which it in fact was from I9 I I to 1949. The PRC on the other hand considers Taiwan a province of China, as it has been historically, while it continues to threaten to invade “OCcupied Taiwan” and do away w’ith the KMT for good. These threats of an invasion by the Red Army have never come true, although one can onlyspeculate how many plans were on the drawing boards. The narrow Strait of Tai-
in Taiwan
wan has understandably been one of the most dangerous and well-guarded military zones, perhaps even more so than the 38th parallel demarcation zone between North and South Korea, or the Berlin Wall. Up to the Seventies, Taiwan also had US military support. The country was ruled by a harsh totalitarian government that imposed martial law well into the Eighties. This situation has mel towed considerably since the mid-Eighties when China’s Deng Xiaoping declared a “one country, two systems” policy that is a fairly even compromise, and relations between the two countries are becoming more and more open. Direct air links may be established soon so that traveflers don’t have to fly through Hong Kong in order to go back and forth. The ROC was officially considered the government of all China until the PRC was recognized by the United Nations in 1972. Since the PRC and the ROC are mutually exclusive and
can’t recognize each other’s governments, Taiwan became a non-nation after 1972, not able to have normal trade or diplomatic relations with most other countries. These formalities are mostly overcome through less formal channels, however, Taiwan’s status in the international community is still a huge issue in Taiwan. The people of Taiwan fall into several different categories. There are nine tribes of aboriginal peoples in Taiwan whose culture is more related to that of Polynesian tribes than with They were supChinese peopfe. planted in the 17th century by a wave of Chinese who were Ming dynasty loyalists fleeing the victorious forces of the Qing armies. This was the first big wave of Chinese settlers, the second occurring in I949 when the KMT came. The first settlers consider themselves Taiwanese by birth, and many of them are very patriotic. Some do not consider themselves as Chinese. The7

a
different
language
(Taiwanese has very little in common with Chinese, although it is spoken in parts of Mainland China), a different culture, different food and a different history. In 1895 when China lost a war with Japan, Taiwan was given to Japan as payment. Taiwanese nation-
alists point to this when attempting to undermine the.validity of ROC policy which calls Taiwan a Chinese province. In Taiwan, the Southern half is generally considered a very “Taiwanese” area, while the northern region all around the capital of Taipei is very “Chinese”. This situation seems similar to that in Canada between English and French Canada. In 1992, the nationalistic Democratic Progressive Party won a significant number of legislative seats in government for the first time, threatening the one-party rule of the KMT. This follows a trend in Asia for upturning one-party rule in Asia as has happened in Korea and Japan. Life in Taiwan today is very different from life in China, in fact they are almost diametric opposites. Sociatism in China provides a safety net for each and every citizen but Taiwan has nowhere near the same system. While China is ultra-bureaucraticand regulated,Taiwan is deregulated and laissez-faire. While the standard of living in Taiwan is much higher than that in China, there is also a higher presence of organized crime in Taiwan which brings with it prostitution, drugs, and gambling. Life on the streets is a muddled af’f%r. buildings are built almost on top of each other, and the streets are a mess of cars, taxis, trucks, the odd bus, a few cyclists, and more scooters than one could imagine a street could hold. They move like a swarm of bees - at great speed, and changing shape to accommodate the shape of the road, buzzing around slower-moving fourwheeled vehicles, and so forth. There are no pedestrians since there are no sidewalks, the sides of the streets being too cluttered with parked scooters and nood ie stands to negotiate at any speed. Try to imagine the fumes, Theatres are plopped next to clothing stores next to restaurants next to record stores next to pachinko parlors (i.e. upright Japanese gambling devices) next to department stores next to tea houses next to bars next to private cram schools. This muddle makes for a wonderful soup of colour and confusion that can be enjoyed as long as one has patience and is not too claustrophobic. Into this whirling environment come a handful of foreigners, curious, most likely with the intention of teaching English in the many private cram schools, although a few come aspiring to leak Chinese and do nothing else. Some have a lot of local friends and become quite proficient in Chinese or Taiwanese, others only befriend other foreigners and don’t bother learning the language. They are the ones who can only deal with those Taiwanese who can speak Engtish which is limiting. Many Taiwanese are quite curious about foreigners, and besides Iearning something about Taiwanese culture Westerners can also learn about the ways that people in Asia perceive their habits and sensibilities. It is quite easy for someone from Canada who has a university degree to find a job teaching English in Taiwan, probably easier than for Taiwanese to work teaching Chinese in Canada. Many people find it an interestingway to spend a couple of years trying to decide what they’re going to do with their lives, while they earn a decent wage and travel occa-
sionally to exotic Asian locales. Many more Canadian graduates are beginning to explore the advantages of iiving overseas, not just for life experiences, but also to experience other peoples’ cultures directly, and possibly to learn another language.
As the postwar era saw a wave of immigration of ‘Asians and Europeans coming to Canada, Asia and Europe is now experiencing a wave of its own: prosperous and educated Canadians finding out on their own a little bit of what this new world order is about.

Just in case you didn’t hear us on the evening of Thursday, September 23rd, for the annual Take Back The Night March, I’ll fill you in. Literally hundreds ofwomen of all ages, backgrounds and beliefs joined together to speak out against violence. We were there to say “NO MORE!” We were there to remember the past in hoping for a better future. We were there to break the silence. The numhers who participated and the path we took seems trivial compared to the feelings at stake. This march wasn’t about women excluding men, nor was it a chance
for women to “bitch” about things. Not at all. It was about speaking out. Although I’ve been a feminist for as long as I can remember, and although I’ve worked within the women’s movement for years, this was my first march. Perhaps that’s why I was so excited about the evening. There was something in the air. The feeling of empowerment was intense! It was truly beautiful to be surrounded by such a strong mass of women. The crescendo of the chants sent chills up my spine and hearing the speakers in front of City Hall inspired me to change the world. Participating in the Take Back the Night march taught me to stay strong. With voices, with determination and with love, change will occur. For me and for many others, the march will remain a symbol of strength and of hope.

Chess is a model problem to be solved by a computer. The aim is well defined, and performance can be easily quantified; it is clear that an exhaustive search or brute force approach is not feasible, and chess seems to have enough structure to be solved using “intelligent” techniques. It is natural to expect that advances in computer chess will be applied to different areas of Artificial Intelligence. Chess is the case study chosen for many computer problems. Almost any real life problem, when attempted to be solved by a computer, will borrow at least one of these techniques: pattern matching, knowledge representation, heuristics, positional estimates, problem solving, and time constraints. For these reasons chess has been branded the “drosophila” of Al. At the beginning of the century, while geneticists were experimenting with mutations and alterations of the fruit fly drosophila, laypeople questioned why geneticists did not experiment, say, instead with livestock. The answer at the time was that geneticists had to learn and experiment with a simple, well behaved organism, which the drosophila is. A century later geneticists are experimenting with livestock and more complex varieties of life. The most important question sought to be answered by computer chess devetopments is: can computers think? For long periods of time it was thought that high level chess playing must involve higher thinking. In other words, developing a good chess program was equated to emulating high level human processes like reasoning,

/mate logical derivation, and ordered recollection. It is now known that computers play chess in a manner that greatly differs from that of humans. Researchers with a pragmatic approach, claim that regardless of the strategy used by the computer+ if the computer plays good chess then it is thinking. Another schoot of thought claims that thinking involves a particufar set of procedures, which, if not employed, amount to nothing more than a brute search. It is not clear which position is closer to the truth. Hopefully advances in computer chess will help find the correct interpretation.
The Future By late I993 the new version of OeepThought will be ready. This version should be able to beat most human players, save the top ten or fifteen. Given the previous history of computer chess, by 1998 DT should be playing at the level of the top three players of the world. If by that time the original developers are not tired of computer chess, then sometime in the next decade DT should beat a Kasparov-strength player, as he plays today. (Hey, with time humans develop and play better too!). If no major developments occur on the human side of chess, a computer should beat the world champion (whoever s/he may be) by the year 2022, 70 years after ‘*sometime in the next decade” was predicted for the first time.
Computer
Chess
at Waterloo
During the 40 years of computer chess development, Waterloo has made significant contributions to the
world of computer chess. Back in the early days of university in the sixties, a revolutionary idea crossed the mind of UW computer administrators. What if we give unlimited computer access to our students? Students promptly developed a Fortran interpreter, made significant improvements to the Honeywell command interface/operating system, and wrote the Ribbit program, which achieved I stand 2nd place in the North American Computer Championship and tied for 2nd in the first World Computer Championship in 1973. From the team of undergrads who authored Ribbit, Ron Hansen went on to write his master thesis on computer chess. Prof. Van Emden became an expert in computer chess and endgames. Lionel Moser’s MSc thesis in parallel alpha-beta search, together with Jonathan Schaeffer’s efforts, are the fast word in parallel computergames to date. A special mention goes to Jonathan Schaeffer, whose Sun Phonex chess program tied for first in the 1986 World Chess Championship. Schaefier, who completed his master’s and PhD at Waterloo, and is now at the University of Alberta, spent the last few years working on a checkers program called Chinook. This checkers program broke the 40-year-long winning streak of the reigning world champion, Marion Tinsley, by defeating her in two games, albeit losingthe overall match. Schaeffer is a leadingauthority on computergames and computer chess. Computer chess at Waterloo lives on through the yearly Othello tournament organized by the Computer Science Club of the Faculty of Mathematics. There are very strong Othello programs, as well as Othello human players at Waterloo. THE EPJO

by Sepanfa Dtmi andShenycarter Imprintsports The Waterloo Athena cross country team improved their CIAU standings last weekend by placing second at the Queen’s Invitational in Kingston. The Athenas are currently ranked seventh from a tenth-place standing last week and are continuing to improve. The race took place at Lemoine Point in the beautiful town of Kingston. It was a summer-like day, perfect for racing the picturesque trails of the Conservation Area. It came as no surprise to witness speedy Judith Leroy crossing the finish line seventh in the field. Even though she claims that hills are her ‘thing’, she proved to be just as fast on the flats. Hot on the heels of Leroy, and quicker than we’ve ever seen her before, was our very own masters rookie Sherry Carter. She placed eighth, having run the best race of her life.

The rugby Warriors had a disap pointing week, losing two games to York and Guelph. Last Saturday, the varsity and junior teams travelled to York Both teams needed a win in order to put their j seasons back on track. They knew it would not be an easy task in light of the previous weekend’s results in which York lost by a mere two points to defending OUAA champs McMaster. The weather was once Again perfect for rugby with only a very slight breeze and mild temperatures. Waterloo kicked off to start the match and almost immediately found themselves in trouble. After four minutes they found themselves inside their own 220 yard line. After some sloppy tackling, the Yorkforwards powered theirway over the Waterloo line to open the scoring. The try was converted and York were quickly out in front 7-O. Once again, the Warriors seemed to get the wake-up call after being scored upon and from then on until half-time it was all Waterloo. The forwards, led by some awe-inspiring loose play by prop Dale Finlay, managed to be ’ the first to the point of breakdown in play for most of the first half. This led to Waterloo being inside the York half of the field in the first half as well. Veteran speedster Josh Windsor had a few good runj; off some well executed backline plays. Simon Lewis at flyhalf kept York under pressure consistently with some excellent touch kicks and monstrous up-and-unders to keep the York fullback quaking in his boots in anticipation of the onrushing Waterloo backline eager to smother him as soon as he caught the ball. Silly mistakes prevented Waterloo from scoring a couple of tries after being just yards outside the York endzone. Penalties were called againstthem at the most inopportune of times. These penalties did result in six points for the Warriors converted by Simon Lewis,
Following very closely behind was Sarah Brown finishing in ninth place. Brown proved that the key is to start fast with your teammates and hang on to the end, Injured but still painfully kicking, was I4th-place finisher Sepanta Dorri. At the present time, Dorri is recovering from an injury, but hoping to peek for OWIAA’r. Immediately behind Dorri was the quick to improve Julia Norman. Good job Julia -- keep up the good work! The team’s other up-and-toming rookie Sarah Thompson finished strong in 20th place, clearly having improved from last week. Motivation ran high at the race, and all the Athenas ran the, course following very closely behind each other with a miraculously low, team score of 53 points. On Friday, October I (today), the” Athenas, along with their male coun-, terparts the Warriors, will be heading,, off to a three-day hill {otherwise know3 as hell) training camp in Port Franks.

New team, new style for hockey Warriors in ‘93~‘94 This weekend marks the beginning of the Waterloo Warriors’ hockey season, with an exhibition game at 7:30 p.m. Friday, October I (tonight) against the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks at Columbia Icefteld. Another game at 2100 p.m. on Sunday, October 3 sees Waterloo host a strong team from Western. Fans should check out this season’s Warriors, as they promise to be different from any previous Waterloo hockey,> squad. Wholesale roster changes have been made since last season and this change of personnel has forced Waterloo to change their style of play. Gone are the days of the Warrior goal-rcoring machine, seemingly able to score at will. In its place, fans will see the new Ice-Men, playing brick-wall defence, and standing up opponents at the blue line. Head coach Don McKee says that the change in tactics is necessary, considering the new lineup. “We have no choice but to become a defensive team. This team will not have the offensive productivity of years past” McKee says. A glut of defencemen ensures that the Warriors will have a rock-solid blue line. Returning from last year’s team are backiiners Barry Young (drahed by the NY. Rangers), Geoff Schneider (drafted by LA. Kings), John Wynne, and Brian Holk, and they will anchor the squad. Supporting them will be former Kitchener Ranger Mark Cardiff and some lads who played in Junior A or B last year. McKee also mentioned Mike Chiini and Todd G!eason, who were both injured in training camp last year and didn’t get to play. “We’re hoping they’ll return to form, but we’re unsure of how they’ll do,” he said. The -abundance of quality defencemen has given the team the unique problem of tryipg to squeeze *em all on the roster,, which coach MlcKee has determined will be smaller ais year by two or three players. “We may have to shift some returning defencemen to forward,” said McKee, offering one possible solution
to his dual problem of too many blueliners and a lot of scoring to replace from last year. Graduation and defection have taken the players responsible for m&e than 50 per cent of last year’s goals. leading scorer Troy Stephens is now playing ,for a German team, as is ]amie Hartnett, while reliable Cory Keenan has opted to play in Sweden. Six players have graduated, includingsteve Schaefer, Darren Snyder, and John Williams, all of whom were in the top ten of Waterloo’s point producers last season. Questionable status has been given to Steve Woods and Chris Kraemer who were injured in the off-season. Woods had a bad leg break and is returning with a metal plate, while Kraemer lost his left index finger in an industrial accident. Kraemer will not be ready for the season opener, and Woods has been off to a slow start. All is not gloom and doom, however, as some quality forwards are returning for another campaign, notably jason Mervyn (19G-2OA) and Greg Allen (9G-20A). Set-up man Dean MacDonald, Bill Whistle, and Geoff Rawson are also returning veterans and they are likely to be bolstered by training camp standouts Sheldon Gilchrist, Mark Ferrier, and Steve Smith. All three played for the Waterloo Siskins last year. Net is one of Waterloo’s trademark positions and this year will be no different Fouti-year tender James Organ, one of the league’s bettertechnical and angles goalies, is back betweenthepipes,ablycoachedbyf&mer all-Canadian netminder Mike Bishop. The aim is for a team goals-against average below 3.00, and with the emphasis on defence, it is likely that they will achieve this. Fanscanexpectclose,tight-checking, exciting games. Coach McKee feels “we’re going to have to win a lot of one-goal games to be competitive against Western, Laurier, and Guelph,” which means tension-filled games all season long. On Oaober 8-10, the Warriors and Laurier will play host to six other tough teams during the annual Oktoberfest tournament, and the

The OUAA playoff race began in week one, but for the Waterloo Warriors it really heats up tomorrow. The Warriors (l-2) return home to Seagram Stadium to host the McMaster Marauders (I -2) at 2 p,m., a team that they must beat to get to the post-season. “We’ll need to win at least three of our last four games,” says Warrior head coach Dave “ruf3r” Knight Assuming that a victory over the Laurier Golden Hawks in two weeks is less than likely, the Warriors must beat the Marauders, Guelph, and Windsor to get the four wins that it will take to make the playoffs. The good news is that all four of those games are at Seagram Stadium. Laurier is the home team for that game. Both Waterloo and Mac are stinging from late-game losses, W to the Western Mustangs 26-22 and Mac to the Toronto Varsity Blues 25-20. McFfaster’s defensive performance was more unexpected, however, as they virtually controlled an offence
that had scored 63 points against the Windsor lancers the previous weekend. Tuffy is worried about that defence and about Mac’s balanced attack’ both of which looked good against a team that was ranked second in Canada at the time. (Since then, the Blues and the Golden Hawks have risen from second and third to first and second respectively.) “Mac ran the ball really well against Toronto, better than they did against York’ or against anybodylti Knightsays.
“And they passed enough to have a very balanced offence.” Running backjason Pardo led the Maraudergroundassaultwith IO3 yards on I6 carries against the Blues. But Marauders quarterback Mike Kennedy also threw for over 200 yards as well, led by Mike Morrealek 4 catches for 84 yards. Since I9f I, McMaster has a slight edge in wins, 12-I I, but recent years have seen Waterloo dominate, beating the Marauders for the last four years straight In the last two y-, W has ou&ored Mac 5 I-I 1..

The two losses drop the Warriors to fourth spot in the OUAA West division with a 2-2-I record. The Athenas have not been able to convert their spirited play into victories yet this season; their win-losstie record stands at 04 I and they are in the basement of the OWIAA West division, two points back of Western. Both teams travel to McMaster University in Hamilton to play the Marauders. The Athenas take on the Mac women’s side, who sport a 2- I -2 record, at I2:OO p.m., while the Warriors meet the CIAU finalists, currently also 2- I -2, at 2:OO p.m. This is the only game for both teams this weekend.

Kraemer, Futver, Smith also to be honoured
UW hall from UWAthletics On Saturday, October 2 (tomorrow night), the University of Waterloo athletics department will honour six inductees in its hall of fame:]ane Fraser Baker, Cam Crosby, Kirk De Fazio, Keith Priestman, George Roy, and Alice Strachan. Also, the department will honour three contemporary players, last year’s UW athletes of the year Brenda Kraemer and Steve Futyer and 1992-93 All-Canadian Shawn Smith. Brenda Kraemer was a threeyear OWIAA all-star in basketball. She was the most valuable player of the Athena team for the past three seasons and leader in all statistical categories last year.
of fame
Steve Futyer was an OUAA allstar at defensive back with the footbali Warriors for the past three seasons. Both Kraemer and Futyer were heavily involved in their respective interuniversity councils. By virtue of their sel.ection as female and male UW athletes of the year, both automatically become members of UWs athletics hall of fame. Shawn Smith, in his first year with the Warrior volleyball team, was named to the ClAlJ all-star team last season, quite an accomplishment for a freshman player. Jane Fraser Baker was a twospoor athlete in the late I 960s and early 1970s. She was a discus thrower with the Athenas when track and field was conducted in the fall. She helped the
inducts
Athenas to a third-place finish in 1969. She was also an outstanding volleyball player in ail five of her years at UW. In her first year, the team had a record of 22 wins in 23 matches. She led the team to five medals (two gold, two sitver, and one bronze) in league competition. ‘Cam Crosby was a three-sport Warrior in the mid:70s, He won league championships in the discus and shot putand set records in both events in his freshman year at UW. He also played quarterback for the football Warriors for one season. But it was as a Warrior hockey player that he made his greatest contribution to UW athletics. He played a vital role during the 1973-74 season in which UW won the ClAU hockey champion-
ship, th,e first national title ever won by Waterloo. Kirk De Fazio played defensive back for the Warrior football team for five years in the mid-‘70s. He received the Tom Pate Memorial Award in the first year it was presented. It was an award that the Canadian Football League presented to the player, who in his graduating year, best combined academics and athletics and who was the best prospect to succeed in the CFL. De Fario played for the Ottawa Rough Riders for two years. Keith Priestman was a Warrior badminton player in the late ’70s and early ’80s. He won numerous titles during his time at UW. He atso represented Canada in many international competitions at the timi, winning med-

spread the ball out wide to his backs. Doherty found himself running out of room about 35 yards out and gave a little chip through. The Warrior forwards were there in numbers and good second-phase halt again enabled Joel to score the try, his second of the match. This made the score 13-0, the way it ended up at the final whistle. The junior side was quite impressive considering the number of first-year players ori the squad. Alt that is needed for them to contend for this year’s championship is to cut down on silly errors due to lapses in concentration, because the talent is definitely there for them to contend. Next on the schedu ie was Gudph this past Wednesday. The varsity side once again played inconsistently and wound up on the losing side of a 25-I I score. The Warriors came out very flat and found themselves in a I O-O hole after just I5 minutes. Play evened out after that and Simon Lewis pulled Waterloo back to within seven points with a penalty kick. Waterloo then started to pile on the pressure. From a penalty five yards out, the forwards set up a clean ruck
six. als at the Pan Am and Commonwealth Games. He later returned to coach the Athenas and Warriors while he completed his degree in 1985-86. George Roy was a Warrior water polo player and a member of the swim team in the late ’60s. He was captain of both teams in all five years of competition. He held nine Warrior records at one time. Alice Strachan is being honoured for her outstanding contribution to the campus recreation program, particularly in the areas of fitness programs and fitness instructor training. A decade after establishing many of UW’s fitness programs, she still helps the department with the fitness instructo& program.
rugby
Anthony Beatythen picked up the loose ball and lumbered over the Guelph line dragging four opposition playen with him and making the score I O-8 Guelph. Waterloo came out smoking in the second half. Dale Finlay was again a standout, getting all over the field and hitting hard. For I5 minutes Guelph didn’t see the Warrior side of the field, but all Waterloo came away with for their efforts was three points from a Simon Lewis penalty. After gaining the lead for the first time in the game, Waterloo ehen proceeded to lose all the momentum and Guelph took over. It wasn’t pretty and frustration began to show as evidenced by veteran speedster Josh Windsor’s extremely late tackte on Guelph’s fullback late in the game. This precipitated a little bit of “how’s your father” between the two sides which was quickly cut short by the referee. The Warriors f&II to O-3 and face a daunting task tomorrow at Queen’s The junior varsity once again
played well and came away with a 1O- IO tie. Outstanding in this game were Mark Morrison with a great try resulting from loose play in the Guelph 22 yard zone and sixth-year veteran Eric Ciezar with excellent support play and a good run to score his first try in six years. It just goes to show that perseverance pays off and Ciezar is the epitomy of persistence. The game was marred by a couple of key injuries to fCrhalf Steve Goodacre and Corey “l’rn playing rugby so it must be Saturday” Rfiards. Subs Jerome Walton and Fenton Travers did a good job fiHing in. The score was IO-5 in Guelph’s favour with about IO minutes left when Eric Ciezar scored the game tying try* After this Waterloo piled on the pressure but were unable to break through for the game-winning points. The tie left the JVs at l-l-1 on the season and with a good shot at making the playoffs. The Queen’s game tomorrow will go a long way to determining whether they are up to ti challenge.

Her apparent loss of concentration was attributed tp a dispute with the Queen’s coach over the coaching of his players between games. Meanwhile,fifth seed Manju Sekhri was giving her Gaels opponent a hard time on the court as well. With both players desperately attempting to break the other’s service, Sekhri played it smart by placing the ball deepand running heropponentaround the court. After nearly two hours of battling it out, in the end it was Sekhri’s confidence and aggressiveness that overwhelmed the opposition.

Waterloo Tennis Club was the venue for a match-up bemeen the Athena tennis team and the Queen’s University Golden Gaels last Saturday. It was anticipated that this meeting would provide some very competitive tennis, since the two teams were tied for third place in the OWIAA %*ing into this tournament The singles line-up included Stephanie Salbach playing the secondseeded position against Mary Jo Young of Queen’s During the first set, Salbach repeatedly won points playing her own style of consistent tennis, succeeding in frustrating her opponent by getting every ball back and forcing a rally situation.

ners Teresa Kindree and Janet Tseng were paired up to play the numberthree seeds. As a team, they kept the pressure on throughout the first set by attacking the net and winning some key passing shots. Steady serving was also a major factor, of which Queen’s was lacking for the early part of the match. The first set led to a tie-breaker, which Queen’s took with score of 7-3. With a set in hand, the Gaels eventually defeated their Athena counterparts by producing some unreturnable serves in the second set to win it 6-3. The final score for the tournament was Queen’s 8, Waterloo I. This Wednesday, the Athenas travel to London to play against the number-one ranked team, Western. Coach Kristyn Klopp is confident that the team’s strong doubles combinations will help carry it through.

Varsity swim team dives intoseason at PAC by Natalie Serkin Imprint sports l
The Waterloo varsity swim team headed into their first meet of the season last Saturday, the Selection/Time Trial Meet. This event was exclusively for.this year’s Athenas and Warriors, to remind them what racing is like and to prepare everyone for the upcoming Biathlon with the University of Toronto and Brock at the Physical Activities Complex pool starting this afternoon (Friday, October I). Returning veterans Amy JarvisJen Beatty, Kara Rice, Marcela Garzon, and Andrew Cartwright seem to be having no problems getting back into the pool after training all summer for a few triathlons. Returning members Nicole Peters, Christine Gueriero, Andrew Russell, and Edgar Seidan are competing again after a year’s break. CIAU qualifiers Ian Hunt and Melissa Williams,as wellasTerry Boyko, Steve Brown, Mitesh Kotecha, Sean Lashmar, Brian Roughley, and Andrew Wahbe, return to lead this year’s rookies to a successful season. They should be helped by new assistant coach Jay Nolan.

Rookies Ed Furs, a Torontonian, and Chris Nagy from Brampton proved to be pretty strong contenders on this year’s team with strong performances on the weekend which we hope to see again. Newest Athenas Teresa Macel from Thornhill, Corrine Peden of Perth, and Londoner Veronica Stephenson showed a great deal of potential with impressive swims by all. Also on the ‘93-‘94 swim team are Waterloo natives Tatjana Sabados and Craig Batten, plus Kristie McComb all the way from Nepean and Laura Anderson of Acton. Warrior frosh jason Cull of Mountain, Ont., devoted regular Trevor Denstedt from Stratford, and Todd Girard from Lynden showed much enthusiasm for the sport in the water and out. Philip Joyce of Sillery, along with senior rookies Randy Gordon andjames jaquith, proved their toughness and eagerness to be part of the team. Absent were Deanna Hlywka, Gillian McDowell,Adam Fox, and Peter Spoor, but we expect good results to come. This meet has started off the year well, so keep your eyes open Waterloo because the swim team is back with a blast!

Cycling
is the Way
to Go
More than 13.5 million Canadian adults have joined the growing movement toward pedal power, and for good reason: bicycling is convenient, it’s fun, and it’s affordable.
If that’s not convincing enough, here are some more reasons to get involved in cycling: I) Studies show that cyclingsharp-
ens put mental acuq, relaxes your -es and boosts your spirits. Commuting by car, on the other hand, raises your blood pressure, lowers frustition tolerance, and fosters negative moods. 2) Instead of going somewhere to get fit, cycling lets you get fit as you go. Regular cycling tones your thighs and buttocks, improves strength and endurance, boosts your membolic rate, lowers your risk of .heart disease and increases your energy. 3) Cycling is safer than you think -- as long as you observe traffic regu lations and wear a helmet Recent North American studies show that properly fitting approved helmets reduce the riskof serious head injury by more than 85 per cent

Maybe they were having a bad night. Maybe I was. Maybe it was a combination of both. I had heard from friends
that Lowest of the Low is a great band to see in concert. Their album Shokespeare My Buti had sounded pretty good cruising down a highway in the beat of a beautiful August afternoon. Their songs were typically alternative rock. I liked them. On Thursday night, I must admit, I was tired to start with. I missed most of Dig Circus, who were opening for the Low, because I ran into an old friend in the Campus Centre. They sounded alright, however, I was not inspired enough to leave friend and sofa and venture 6to the smoke filled and packed Bomber.

Stompin’ Tom Connors Ldu’s Roodhouse September 24, I993
by Fergie McCormuck special to Imprint Prior to last Friday night’s Stompin’ Tom show at tulu’s, I overheard some comments by what I can only ascertain w! a naysaying non-believer. The guy in question said things like, “Nuramburg ‘34 all over again,” and “if you substituted ‘USA’ every time Stompin’ said “Canada,” and stars and stripes for the maple leaf, everybody’d think Stompin’ Tom was just some fascist Bob Roberts wing-nut. But because he’s Canadian, we’re supposed to believe he’s somehow as cute and harmless as a teddy br, and therefore above being called out onto the carpet for it” At least., I think that‘s pretty close to what he said. Now I don’t know who this Bob Roberts guy is, but the guy who didn’t like Tom, well let’s call a spade a spade and get it all over with. Tb,.bguy should’ve been shot and pissed on. At the very least deported. Stompin’ Tom is simply A GREAT CANADIAN!! Anybody who thinks differently can do us all a big favour and move elsewhere. This country isn’t big ~--@I for Tom’s fans and enemies alike. And believe me, if you’re not a fan of Stompin’ Tom, then you’re an enemy of Canada. it’s that simplt:.

mered like the rest of the crowd. Buy their albums and play them in the car when those CFNY radio waves get too weak. Cruise out into the countryside, listen to such old faves as “Gossip,” “Eternal Fatalis&” or my favourtite “For the Hand of Magdalena.” Take a look at this country called Canada.

duced. Well probably, although Don Cherry’s right up there with him. He started the show with “Bud the Spud” and sang some more songs about potatoes and Canada. Places like Sudbury, Newfoundland, Alberta,
Tillsonburg, Saskatchewan and Skinner’s Pond. While it may be true that most of the songs pq well all sounded alike, if you tried real hard you could close your eyes and actually imagine you were there. And if I’m not mistaken, I’d almost swear I heard Paul Henderson’s goal being scored over and over again. Interestingly, Tom claimed that the evening would be “IO0 per cent Canadian,” but he didn’t sing any songs about Quebec. Fuck 6ouchard. On the other hand, he sang a patriotic song about the Blue Berets, they being Canada’s peacemakers-par-excellance, and saluted the ever-present Canadian flag strategically placed at the front of the stage. Lest anyone forget where we were, fans and nationalists alike drank Molson Canadian and waved Canadian flags and chanted “STOMPIN’ TOM!! STOMPIN’ TOM!! STOMPIN’ TOM!! STUMPIN’TOM!! STOMPIN’ TOM!!” and Tom thanked them, responding by saying thing like “Bring it on,” and “You know when you see a crowd like this you’re home... In Canada!!!” I believe Tom has been doing some heavy touring in other parts of the world, so to see the Lulu’s crowd must have brought near tears to his muchtravelled eyes. If you weren’t there, you missed an amazing show and a mosr amazing Canadian. And you would most definitely be classisfied in most of Stompin’ Tom’s fans’ eyes as a major league loser. Like that leftie who figured Tom was just another Bob Roberts.

Juliana Hatfield Three with Madder Rose Lee’s Palace, Toronto Monday, September 27
by Chdene special
O’Grczdg
r
to Imprint
Madder Rose entered the stage Monday night with determination in their eyes. They had a job to do and they were going to do it, With barely a “hi there” to an impatient crowd, this $-piece band from New York City plunged into a melodic opener featuring waves of multi-dimensional solos that rippled down the spines of curious but well-behaved onlookers. A petite yet mighty female vocalist stepped up to the mic with humble finesse ail the while strumming precise chords with a concentration equal to her male cohOItS.
If one word could sum up Madder Rose performance it would have to be
concentr’ation. They lacked any cxpression of joy to be onstage, with the exception of the lead guitarist, who at one point grabbed his beer bottle to screech piercing$ren calls above his mates’ instruments. Even this impressive feat seemed part of a well-disciplined technique rather than a spontaneous, whimsical act. Impressed as the audience were, they c&ed a human connection --eye contac&insults, anything-- to lessen the distance between themselves and the band. It seemed the 45minute set took the audience on a roller-coaster ride of loops and curves driving to an intense climax that had me grasping for air (or perhaps it was the asphyxiating hairspray haze of giggling coliegiate types). My anticipation turned to emptiness when without warning, perfect momentum crashed to the ground and Madder Rose engaged in a slow “cry me a river” ditty. Their performance flutterred slightly after
just
wants
this but never quite attained the same edge. After a couple of duets between the bassist and female lead, they ended their gig with a cover of Modern Lovers’ “I Felt Asleep in Your Arms.” At least one guy in the audience was “prett)c darned impressed with that” It &as standing room only for the dozens of latecomers who arrived in time for a lengthy wait before The fuiiana Hatfield Three -- or JH3 as their T-shirts promote-- descended the stage. Hatfield not only traded her bass for a lead guitar on this tour but also swapped her brunette locks for a golden b&de coif. Could this explain her new-found zest to perform? I would hate to stereotype but it seemed Hatfield left her shy, serious self from the Hey Babe tour behind and opted for a “girls just wanna have fun” attitude. This in no way refers to her subject matter which in her latest album Become What You Are stilt speaks of love gone wrong, iil-confi-

Me, Mom
& Morgantater Stages September 23, 1993
by Eliz~ RaJlsott special to Imprint What can you get for two bucks these days? A burger and fries at McDonald’s, or maybe a bag of Twiulers (red of course). But as far as live music goes, you can’t get shit for two loonies -- or rather, you usually can’t. But last Thursday night at Stages, two bucks got you a stunning acoustic experience, an energetic workour, and the chance to witness one man’s social awakening -,- all roiled into one. In a performance packed with charisma,
talent and just plain energy, Me, Mom & Morgantaler demonstrated that great music doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg -- although a healthy sense of humour helps you keep those limbs intact The band started off the show with a lively rendition of “Invasion of the Corporate Cockroaches From Planet Widdley” from their 1993 release Shivu SpaceMachine. They then moved quickly into the immensely popular “I Don’t Want To Be Your Friend,” sending the crowd into a dancing frenzy that didn’t let up for the rest of the night. MMM’s music is a quirky amalgamation of jazz, rock, and reggae with an array of other influences thrown in to add spice. Their style combines a boisterous, spirited sense of humour with social awareness that is more open and self-reflexive than it is dogmatic or self-righteous. Their performance of the provocative “Everybody’s Got AIDS” is a case in point Midway through the song, singer Gus Coriandoii encouraged the en-
w-w IHMIGRATIow SERVICES
thusiastic audience to accompiny him in betting out the chorus. Noticing one audience member who seemed a benevolent non-participant in this harmonic expression of human fellowship, Coriandoii vowed to convert him to the cause. A mixture of goodhumoured threats from the band along with noisy peer pressure finally succeeded in doing so. Happily, the song’s message -- that co-operation and responsibility will go further in battling AIDS than will apathy and ignorance-seemed all the more apparent from this little interlude. From there, the show just kept getting better. Vocalist Kim Bingham’s powerful performance of “Angel’s Time” and accompaniment on “I Still Love You Eve” were two other highlights of the evening, although her usually vigorous accompaniment in the song “Laura” was inexplicably absent. All in all, the show was more than up to the high standards of a typical MMM show, and everyone was left sweaty, smelty, and (quite happily) exhausted. And I, for one, was left wondering why people are so eager to head for Maple Leaf Gardens, SkyDome, etc. to pay 30 or more dollars to see preeningand pretentious bands whose musical talent is so obviously inferior to Me, Mom & Morgantaler’s. I guess it’s just one more of life’s little mysteries. _

But You”, “Spin the Bottle” and “A Dame With a Rod.” Hatfield crooned from the aching style of J Mascis to the vibrato effect of Tanya Donnelty, all the while keep ing her eyes shut tight The transition from bass to lead has done anything but harm her performance. The trio eventually brought things down with three heartbreakers featuring “The Lights” from Hey Bube, “Here Comes the Pain” from the I See You EP and “Mabel” from their ‘93 release Become Whti You Am. As expected, rowdy, sweat-drenched patrons demanded an encore and the juiiana Hatfield troupe obliged breaking into a previously unreleased “Put itAway”which is now available on a U.K. EP My Sister. They also appeased requests for “Nirvana” off Hey 8ube. But the finale was an impressive cover of Leslie Gore’s “You Don’t Own Me” in keeping with Hatfield’s themes of self-empowerment which slowly appear to be moving to the forefront -of this artist’s career and intriguing persona.

The Rhinos The Vokuno Club September 24, I993
by Samlie Edwards special to Imprint Okay, the fact is 1was a Volcano virgin before tonight. Hem is my verdia the Volcano is great, the Rhinos however, are not. And that folks is the most polite way I can think to put it The atmosphere in the Volcano is great. The three hour wait was the best part of the evening, full of The Catherine Wheel, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Ride and The Happy Mondays. But now the Rhinos are on, and it isn’t fun anymore. Where are the Nowhere Blossoms I was so looking forward to seeing? They were billed as tonight’s special guests -- but there is no mention and no sign of them. Unfortunate. Back to reality; the Rhinos have taken over the stage. One in a pink felt hat, one in a handkerchief twisted at the corners like an old Englishman on holiday at the seaside and another in a vest made of material that was in vogue for school bags last year. It is probably better if I just neglect to mention the other two, since my petty remarks have gone far enough already.
The music is tedious -- granted I wasn’t expecting such a reggae feel, but that doesn’t change the fact that it was so repetative. The bass is so strong that my friend is holding her active stomach in fear that it may explode. I do seem to be the exception in the crowd though, most people are bounding around and singing along. Hmmm, I wonder what I’m missing here? Highlights ofthe evening did include the circa 50’s sofa which I planted myself on after fifteen minutes of the Rhinos. The cool fish tank also provided a diversion for a little while. But not long enough. The music is so annoying, and I have to endure some drunkguy repeatedlytelling me how great the band is since all his other pick up lines have failed. Oh God, this is unbearable. Complete and utter tedium. .. .. And that is where my scribbling on a scrap of paper ends, and it is now the day after. To be honest I still feel the same way about the Rhinos -- totally unimpressed. Their gymnastic bouncing on stage, and annoying happiness just didn’t do anything for me at all. Not even a flicker of interest. Sorry, but attempts at the white boy reggae thing just aren’t my scene. The fact is though, the band looked like theywere havin&m, and that’s all that really counts -1suppose. -

3 by Sundie Edward25 qbecicd to Imprint This is a do-it-yourself effort from a Toronto outit. From the recycled paper sleeve, printed only on one side to the obvious “Produced by: Slowseeds.” This is someone’s labour of love. I have listened to the Blowseeds a few times but 1don’t know what I want to say about them. Dobroesque is good -- but it isn’tgreat. What the Blowseeds are doing both the Lowest of the low and the Waltons do better. I like the
tape but there aren’t any outstanding moments on it It is honest and straightforward, and that is great -- but it needs more. What more thwgh, I don’t know. Holc! on while I listen to it again... The guitars are the first thing 1 hear when I put the tape on, and this smys with me throughout. Not harsh and loud, just clean and consistent The opener of the album, “Fight For Love” is good, true pop, and although not monumental it gets yqur toes tap ping. “Hash” (aka Your Garden) is full of energy with a great guitar oriented bridge, and “Mexico” is the epitomy of the folky sound the Blowseeds aim at. Unfortunately it’s also the epitomy of repetition. After that, nothing on the tape stands out. It’s good, but the Blowseeds aren’t going to the head of the music class yet. Listen to it while you read or get ready to go out, because it isn’t spectacular enough to revolve your life around. 1don’t liketo slagthe Blowseeds because Dobroesque is good -- but I can’t realiy praise them because it isn’t great.

Part of the backlash against Nirvana no doubt has to do with the fact that if they weren’t in one of the biggest bands of the decade, they’d all be bagging groceries by now at some KwikiMart in Washington. 8ut they did release a fantastic single, a good album and some pretty hilarious videos, and were well rewarded. So, did they pull the comeback off? Did they manage to keep their artistic integriq intact in the face of all their fame while not insulting their fans as welt as keeping ahead of the pack, without alienating any new teenage angst victims? Well, yes and no. (How did you know I was going to say that) Musically, the album sounds a lot better than Nevemind. The loud cock-rock of Butch Vig has had all the smooth sides ripped off and the bleeding sores that Albini has left leaves the album feeling much more painful than even Bleach.

The latest release from the Gods of Goth is a live atbum featuring fourteen tracks from their Wish tour last year. Recorded at the Palace of Au burn Hills in Detroit’ it is a magnificent project and a must-buy for any Cure fan. The tunes chosen for the album are, in order, “Open,” “High,” “Pictures of You,” “Lullaby,” “Just Like Heaven”’ “A Night Like This,” “Trust,” “Doing the Unstuck,” “Friday I’m in Love,” ” In Between Days,” “From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea”’ “Never Enough, ” “Cut,” and “End.” Also worth mentioning is the upcoming release they tell us about on the sleeve, another live album featuring twelve other tracks recorded in Paris. A live video is also coming soon (prepare to be broke, ye faithful. ) The album is very tight, very detailed and very good. When you turn this one up loud it feels like you’re sitting in a stadium watching them live. The only differences are that you don’t smell that familiar aroma of illegal substances, and that for some reason the band chose to leave out most of the talking done by Robert Smith, introducing the songs and stuff. He talks a little, but not even close to the amount of burbling he usually does. The sleeve of the C.D. is a huge foldout with a big picture of the Cure on stage on one side, and individual pictures of Robert, Simon, Pori, Boris and Perry on the other. Lovely. There’s not too much else to say - we’ve heard ail the songs before, just not from this perspective. If you’ve seen the Cure live, this one will really bring back pleasant memories.
Hammerbox is a post-punk/heavy metal cross; a skeletal band from Seattle. A band’s members shouId function as do the organs of the body, each component dependant on the sum functioning of its parts Hammerbox consists of James Atkinson on bass, Harris Thurmond on guitars, vocalist Carrie Akre, and drummer Dave Bosch who also sings. Consideringthe instrumental backing and overall auditory impression given, the characteristic image is one of bare bones. -Hammerbox is skeletal in the sense that there is no co-operation. Each band member battles for the lead, overlapping each other’s efforts. A band should be musicians working together towards a common goal of musical offerings, each member contributing more or less equally: The only feature aliowing Hammerbox to function as a band is REPETITION. There is no repertoire as each song merges into one sound chain. The words may change and song titles distinguish a separation between pieces, but these are the only clear cut divisions offered by the artists. Then again, how much differentiation can exist with such basic, battling band elements? Numb, the Hammerbox album in question, seems an attempt at copying the Seattle grunge style of music. Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Nirvana’ and Tempie of the Dog saturate the music with

.
those “new Seattle band” sensibilities. Instead of developing themselves in their own style, Hammerbox seems to be using a common formula for “Seattle success,“developed byheirabove mentioned predecessors. Carrie Akre, Hammerbox’s lead singer (for lack of an appropriate title), yodels her throaty efforts over a heavy bass, competing for recognition. Her voice is reminiscent of early Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, but with a bit less gravel. Tune the bass on your stereo down to zero, and Akre’s efforts are not ail lost. , “Hole,” “bed,” and “when 3 is 2” are Hammerbox’s best attempts. The guitars wail, the bass overpowers you while you thrash about the room, banging your head to the beat like a true metal head. Hate is not the opposite of love, indifference is. Hammerbox explores the irrational and desperate side of love’s vices: Obsession, Want, Revenge, Acts of Desperation, ail figure into an auditory assault The music is capable of inciting you to vioience. “Hdie” is above all-my favorite, with its aggressive lyric dei6er-y. Empowerment is the message. Take control. ‘Look at me!’ says my imaginary Hammerbox fan, ‘But if I ever catch you looking at me withoutan invitation, I’ll consider this an assault on my person, and eat your eyes.’ Side 2 of the album is like the B side of a 45. The band doesn’t seem to expect anyone to listen to it so no effort was put into its production. One phrase sticks out. The voice of a man giving some sort of lecture bridges the gap between two songs: “Sometimes it appears that we are reaching a period when our senses and our minds will no longer respond to moderate stimulation.” It would seem that Hammerbox’s musical contributions are dependant on the truth of B-side’s statement. The audience will allow assault and battery because it has become numb to all media of stimulation.

Barely awake is more like it On this six-song EP, these folks try hard to be hypnotic but only manage to come off as plodding and directionless, As far as the technique of minimalist, repetitive guitar chords foes, other bands like Gaiaxie 500 have done it much better in the past. At least Dean Wareham (former Galaxie frontman and self-confessed Codeine fan) knew how to invest his melancholia with emotional and melodic impact Co-

This compilation soundtrack to judgment Night, an as-of-yet-unreleased flick starring Emiiio Estevez (ouch!) and Denis Lear-y, sports the interesting proposition of recording hard rock performers with rap/hip hop artists. It’s an idea that’s been successfully combined in the past -- Aerosmith & Run D.M.C., Anthrax & Public Enemy, Body Count with Ice T -- and of course premier rap acts such as PE and the Beastie Boys have long exploited heavy metal sampling to great effect. But it’s a testament to the album’s producers that they managed to get together some really good frontline players, and the results are, for the most pan fairly solid. Of particular interest to this reviewer is the partnership of Sonic Youth with Cypress Hill (singing a song titled “I Love You Mary Jane” no less.) Since most of the album relies rather heavily on the thrashjgangsta sounds of most of the bands, this track is a bit of an aberration, with sleepy, trippy manti repeated over and over. It’s more Cypress Hill than Sonic Youth (who’re evident only by Kim Gordon’s sultry backing vocal and some m’mimal-butcharacteristic SY guitar tunings), and it’s one of the soundtracks better songs. Cypress Hill also collaborate with Pearl jam. Given my indifference to the
Seattle grungers, it’s surprising just how solid their results are. Another winner is Dinosaur jr.3 J. Mascis adding some tremendous fretwork to Del the Funky Homosapien’s “Missing Link” The other blends’are Helmet & House of Pain, Teenage Fanctub & De La Soul, Living Colour & Run D.M.C., Biohazard & Onyx, Slayer & Ice T, Faith No More & Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E, Mudhoney & Sir Mix-A-Lot, and Therapy? with Fatal. Besides many of the songs being pretty good, (listen to the similarity of Faith No More & Boo-Yaa T.RI.B.E.‘s “Another Body Murdered” to P.E.‘s “Channel Zero,“and Teenage hnclubl De b Soul’s nice take on Tom Peq’s “Faiiin”‘)‘the songs offer good introductions of fans from one of the genres to the music of the other. If for that only, judgment Night makes for a nice package.

The “one man sex-show” received sporadic applause from polite Waterloo students, unaware of their right to demand quality from a free-for-all performance.

Son to the plot However, the filler was the most memorable part of the firm, notably the beautiful scenic shots of the US southwest and northeast. All of this was marred at times by the bouncy camera workthat tried to put the audience into the film, but only served to be extremely annoying. The plot was thin and completely predictable.

The Good Son directed by loseph Ruben
The previews intrigued me, and I looked forward to seeing Macaulay C&in’s new moneymaker The Good Son. Less than 90 minutes later, my date and I left the theatre wondering what had ken on lV that we could have watched instead. Time dragged ponderously throughout this slow moving film, which had been liberally stuffed with “filler” scenes that had little to no relevancti
What wasn’t predictable was unbelievable, in the sense that the audience was left to say ‘yeah, as if. The acting ran the gamut from excellent to pathetic. Newcomer Elijah Wood was wonderful as the truly good son, and his expressive face __-- was_.- his- best - --- asset .- -. Macaulay Culkin, on the other hand, was awful, but much of the blame for this can be placed squarely on the shoulden of the screenwriters. The phrases and concepts Culkin’s character dealt with were so far beyond what any child, even a genius, would say that it was impossible to take it all seriously. Yes, there are some very twisted children in the real world. but usually not with a deep philosophical understanding of the rationale behind their behaviour. It was blatantly obvious that adults were putting words into the mouths of babes. See this if you really must, but the price isn’t worth it, so wait until it comes out on video, and even then see if there’s something better around.
