The University of Waterloo slipped a notch in this year’sMucIecm’s magazine university rankings.. Falling from first to second place among “comprehensive universities,” UW was beat out by Simon Fraser Universiq (SFU) of Vancouver, BC, last year’s second place finisher. M&an’s based its rankings on in-depth anatysis of academic, financial, and student life issues, including average entrance grade of frosh, class sizes, operating budget, and library resources. First among “medicalldoctoral” universities was Mont&al’s McGill and first among “primarily undergraduate” universities was Mount Allison university of New Brunswick. Although placing second over all, UW finished first in its category in proportion of students who graduate, student awards, and reputation. UW received second place rankings for faculty with PhDs and student services and was within the top five in I3 of the 22 categories. Among the reasons for selecting SFU first was SFU’s desire to integratq, .#h .the community, its interdisci$inary,pro;sr%4ns, ar&ironitally, its co-operative educatio?t program. The University of Waterloo founded the first co-op system in Canada. . The annual Maclean’s university issue also discusses student life issues, surveys students’ opinions of their universities, compares universities across Canada and with universities from the United States, and of-

fers “hot tips for a cold job market” In ranking.the reputations of all Canadian universities, UW came out first in the categories of “most innovative,” “leaders oftomorrow,” and “best over all.” In the category of “highest quality,” UW ranked fifth behind McGill, Queen’s, UBC, and Toronto. Maclean’s caused an uproar amongst universities three years ago

with its first survey because it ranked every university in Canada in one category without differentiating between qpes of universities. M&on’s solved this problem a year later by separating universities into the three categories of “medical/doctoral,” “comprehensive,” and “primarily undergraduate.” UW falls under “comprehensive” because it does not run a medi-

cal or law school but has extensive graduate programs. Both Carleton and Acadia universities declined to participate in this year’s survey citing fiscal responsibilities. Both universities claimed that the ranking was not worth the time and money they would have to spend to compile data and provide interviews for the magazine.

Privatized MBA program possible Queen’s by Kieran Green Imprint Stag Queen’s University may be leading the way to an Americanstyle educational system with its plans to privatize their Masters of Business Administration (MBA) program. The plan would force students to cover the full $20 000 tuition bill starting. in 1996. The University of Western Ontario is also considering the possibility of privatizing their MBA program, as well as other professional programs including law and medicine. The possibility of privatized education in Ontario has students uneasy and concerned. Administrators, too, are concerned about the

possible effects. “It doesn’t surprise me. Given the nature of government funding, all schools are looking for ways to get money,” said Wilfrid Laurier University MBA student Ken Smale. “It certainty throws an interesting wrinkle into the whole marketplace,” remarked director of the Wilfrid Laurier MBA program Gene Deszca. “If you want them (universities) to be profit maximizing institutions then you might make an argument for privatizing,” he said. The primary concern is that privatization wilt severely damage accessibility to professional programs. “There may be some who are willingto pay, but unfortunately that’s not a very large part of our population,” stated Smale, “I don’t think

any of my fellow classmates could afford $20 000, given the nature of education, it’s tough just getting by.” Undergraduate students hoping to eventually enter these programs are particularly worried by the possibility of privatization. *‘Education will become extremely unaccessible, only the rich will be doctors and lawyers,” argued second year UW english student Rob Gtover, who hopes to enter law school. “They’re cutting the roots again. Education is the root of society,” said Glover. “My major concern would be the kind of financial hurdles put into individuals’ capacity to pursue the educational goals they have,” commented Deszca.

u cy u B YUCkYy Fighting to change UBC young offenders act

compiled

by Tammy

Bender

This past August, the University

of British Columbia

(UBC) was listed on the

BC Ministry of Environment’s biannual polluters list. This list was developed to prompt polluters to clean up their act. The cause of UBC’s placement on the list is the presence of an old incinerator on campus which destroys pathological (disease related) and biohazardous wastes generated on campus by medical and research students. UBC was the first university to handle its own wastes when the incinerator was built in 1972, but the university’s methods of waste disposal have since become outdated. In March 1993, the Greater Vancouver regional district air quality and source control found UBC’s emissions exceeded its permit by about three times its allowed amount of particulate matter. It was also found that the amount of hydrogen chloride being produced exceeded the permit by five times. Both of these pollutants contribute to health and visibility problems. At the beginning of this year, UBC decided to put the new incinerator project aside until the waste reduction commissioner releases a review about what to do with briomedical waste throughout the province. UBC plans to meet the terms of their permit by not emitting wastes past their allowed amount. The university wants to ensure they will not be on the polluters list in another six months. - from the UBC’s

A UW student has recently begun a petition to campaign for changes to the Young Offenders Act, believing that penalties for young offenders should be toughened. On August IO, 1992, Cheryl Racine and her friend Carrie Lynne Pinard were involved in a shooting at a Toronto apartment. Pinard was killed and Racine received four blows to her face, leaving her blind in her right eye. Currently a UW student, Racine is now challenging the Young Offenders Act because Pinard’s killer was only seventeen at the time. “I’ve talked to police officers and lawyers who say many young offenders are fully aware of what they are doing and even they [the youths] feel that if laws were toughened they would not be committing these crimes,‘* said Racine. Racine’s petition calls for young offenders to have ordered psychiatric treatment made mandatory and for offenders to be transferred to adult courts if they have committed sex crimes or murder. In

Budget cuts may cut out more programs. Dalhousie University’s academic community was surprised this September23, when school cutfing president Howard Clark announced that the way to balante the university’s operating library budget was to completely cut departments. The Budget Advisory Committee (BAC) of Dal housie, recommended that I6 million dollars be cut over three years. Based on this recommendation, the president suggested that these cuts

be made by eliminating the departments of theatre, music, public administration and Library and Information Studies.

Alt.sex newsgroups under scrutiny again by Peter Hiiflich Imprint stqfy The future availability of certain alt. newsgroups in computer labs at the University of Waterloo is once again being scrutinized. This action comes after a wake of complaints stating that files available in the alt.sex newsgroups accessed on campus can be considered as sexually haassing and illegal. Some of the groups were suspended in I99 I but then restored on the advice of a committee set up to study the matter. A complaint was made by Sonia Prevost-Derbacker of the Women’s Centre in July regarding certain images that can be considered illegal by the legal code of Canada. Availability of these newsgroups on campus was re: viewed after the complaint was filed. Other concerns have been raised over the fact that images displayed on terminals or posted in student labs will be offensive to some of the students who use the labs, thus constituting a form of public harassment. Some of the available newsgroups contain information and stories on any number of subjects ranging from movies to television shows to music to discussions on the TeallHomolka case. Information and graphics relating

The committee is headed by Matt Erickson, who says that they are moving as quickly as possible in researching the issue. It will be a few weeks before any time line of action will be decided upon. Erickson predicts the possibility of some of the newsgroups being kept out ofthe UW hierarchy of newsgroups. He adds that anyone who wants to access these materials will still be able to at another location, either upstream or downstream from the UW location on the access grid. In I99 I all of the alt. newsgroups, regardless of their nature, were removed from UW access. This sparked

an outcry among users, and the services were quickly restored. A report published by a special committee to study newsgroups stated that the university could not adopt a role of aguardian and place restrictions on what information students may or may not have access to in general terms. It also stated the logistical impossibility of screening the incoming mail (approximately I t megabytes of information) and pointed out that a mechanism exists for students who make formal complaints about matters that offend them. One of the problems of the news network is its infinite size. Another problem is the fact that there is no administration overlooking it or policing it. It is a loose collective of hundreds of networks and systems that allows for user anonymity. For UW to cut itself off from the usefulness of this resource has been compared to cutting itself off from electricity. Trying to stop maverick users from polluting the system with illegal material has also been compared to trying to stop acid rain by shooting one raindrop at a time. There is a system of tracing anonymous submissions, however it is extremely time consuming and would have to be the result of a formal complaint on a specific submission.

The I993 Central Canadian Debating Championships, also known as the Legion Cup, was held this past weekend at Queen’s University in Kingston. With 44 teams representing I2 universities from Quebec and Ontario, the University of Waterloo has reason to be proud. The team of Rahil Gangotfi, from political science, and lnit Printz, from mathematics, finished a respectable twelfth. Two very close losses, one to the champion York University, kept Waterloo contingent from advancing to the tournament playoffs. The most significant accomplishments were in the categories of individual performance. lnit Printz finished in fourth place while Rahul Gangolli captured first place out of eigthy-eight debaters. Gangolli’s top speaker prize earned him the distinction of not only being one of the top university debators in Central Canada, but it also included a Hewlett-Packard personal computer. The first place finish for an individual debator is a ftrst in the Waterloo team’s history. The university’s performance at the Legion Cup continues a tradition of success for the Waterloo House of Debates. Previous triumphs have included two national public speaking champions, and two national championship semi-final appearances. The Waterloo House of Debates holds meetings every Tuesday at 5:30 pm in Physics 3 13. They attend tournamernts every two weeks accross Canada and the United States. No experience is necessary and new members are always welcome.

University cafeteria profits students

Tuesday October 5 was the grand opening of York>+pniversitiy’s student owned and operated cafeteria, the first of its kind in Ontario. Students are now able to voice their opinions concerning the operation of the cafeteria and are assured their comments will be heard. Problems and complaints are brought to the attention of the management council members and are reviewed at each management meeting. The new method of management is unique because profits made through the cafeteria are used to finance student programs. Students attending York are excited to see that the money they are spending goes back to the students. After York University put the servery up for tender, the Bethune College Council and Stong Student Government worked together placing a bid for ownership for the cafeteria and were granted ownership in June.

verttcal cuts. Instead, Raby sees increasing salaries by only one per cent instead of the proposed three per cent as an alternative option, as well as cutting some of the school’s administrative costs. At the moment, the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences is suing Howard Clark “for acting counter to the university’s public interest,” said Raby. “He also acted counter to a collective agreement between Dalhousie’s faculties, which states that programs can only be closed on academic grounds or if the university is in a desperate financial situation,” she said. None of the department administrations or students had been consulted or informed prior to Clark’s September announcement. According to Raby, the president only met with students once and then said that he has nothing to do with the arts. Departments and faculties have until December 3 I to come up with alternative budget cuts. “They [BAC] take one and a half years to come up with their plan, and they give us three months to come up with ours. I am not happy, and the president knows this,” said Faculty of Management Dean James McNiven. Both of the affected faculties are working on finding alternative solutions. “I am not thinking of closing them [music and theatre],” said Faculty of Artr and Social Science Dean Graham Taylor. Despite the high cost of these programs, he sees them as essential parts of his faculty because “they provide a linkage with the community”. In early October, a rally was held in Halifax which was attended by at least four hundred people. Both Symphony Nova Scotia and Neptune Theatre, Halifax, hire a large number of Dalhousie graduates. The cuts in the arts would be felt deeply in the entire Atlantic arts community. Petitions are being conducted and people are being encouraged to lobby Halifax mayor Moyra Ducharme and Nova Scotia premierlohn Savage. Dalhousie president Clark was not available for comment

Stump travels Canada

by Tammy Bender Natalie Onuska

A 4.400 kilograms (8 000 pounds), 380 year old stump from Clayoquot Sound, British Columbia is coming to the University of Waterloo’s Campus Centre on November 16. The stump will then make a second stop in Waterloo to arrive at the destination of Market Square on November 20. The stump is only “a baby” because these trees grow to be one to two thousand years old. However, it is the biggest sized stump that could be brought without special permits. Earlier this month, the University of Toronto was treated to a visit by the stump that was recovered from a clear cut area. The red cedar stump, which has a diameter of four and a half meters (nine feet), is currently on a cross-Canada tour aimed at raising awareness of efforts to save Ciayoquot Sound from further environmental degradation, clear-cutting by logging companies. The tour, organized by the Western Canada Wilderness Committee, which began this past September 25, has already taken the stump to numerous universities including the University of British Columbia and McGill. The stumps many destinations have also included cities, small towns, civic centres, government offices, and shopping malls. Funds raised will go towards attempting to obtain a court order to stop logging road building and clear cutting in Clayoquot Additional funds will help to build a nature trail in the Sound. It is hoped that the stump, which signifies a piece of the clear cut, will help put into perspective, the current situation of Clayoqout Sound. There will be a slide show concerning the issue on November I6 at 7 p.m. in Engineering Lecture Hall, IO3 at UW.

A jury which included students and faculty from all four units of environmental studies and an ES staff representative, selected a photographic depiction of the Nile River as the winner in a two-stage mural design competition. The 3 meter wide by IO meter high mural will be installed-in the main stairwell of the ESI building. ES Dean Jeanne Kay is enthused with the winning mural design. “We are an international faculty, and the Nile design represents in many ways who we are and what we do,” said Kay. _ The designers of the winning mural are lrina Hersonsky and Aniko Mesaros, both students in UW’s School of Architecture. Hersonsky is a fifthyear, thesis student and Mesaros is in 3B. Other finalists in the competition were Monica Chadha and the &am of Michael lsner/Keb Geravito, all from 2B Architecture.

Students Advising Co-op (SAC) is anew committee under the Federation of Students Board of Academic Affairs. We are here to listen to you, and to ensure that something is done about your concerns and complaints. In creating SAC, its “Duties and Functions” were defined as follows: I ) to serve as the body through which cb-op students may liaise with co-op administrators regarding the Department of Co-op Education and Career Services, and theadministration of programs. 2) to ensure students’ views are repres&ted and that students partake in the decision making process regarding coop education. 3) to monitor and recommend changes to the Department of Co-op Education and Career Services. 4) to ensure effective communications between the Department of Co-op Education and Career Services and coop students.

Six jurors participated in the final, Stage II deliberations, in which students were required to submit drawings, budgetfigures, and an explanatory text. The jurors were ES Dean Jeanne Kay, Urban and Regional Planning graduate Kevin Fisher, Environment and Resource Studies student Sehdev Kumar, School of Architecture student Mary Lou Lobsinger, undergraduate geography student Bruce Winter and Robert McNair of the Environmental Media Information Centre. School of Architecture professor Larry Richards was the advisor for the competition. Although the mural has an aerial photograph of the Nile as its primary design element, the composition also includes a reflected imprint ofthe stair’s steps. There are three flexible “windews” in the mural for additional images that can be changed each year. Following several weeks of technical development and co-ordination with Plant Operations, the grand and colourful mural will begin to appear in ES I.

We can be reached at e-mail: for math undergrads just type ‘mail sac’ for engineering undergrads mail sac@ I08.watstar for others e-mail sac@undergrad.math Or drop a note in our mailbox in the Federation of Students Office, Campus Centre 235.

In addition to the new arrival of SAC to the Board of Academic Affairs (BAA), the board is also acting upon suggestions that came out of the Quality of Teaching report completed this past summer. The quality of teaching assistants across campus was one of the main concerns put forward in this report. BAA is currently looking at the qualifications of TAs, and will be making recommendations to the universiry.

Are you committed to human rights or environmental conservation? Waterloo’s Youth Building the Future (YB9 is looking to broaden its focus to include members of local groups concerned with these issues, YBF will soon be seletting delegates to send to Jordan as Canadian representatives at YBF’s annual international conference next summer. Youth Building the Future is an international network focusing on social justice and environmental issues. YBF strives to stimulate greater community, national, and international cooperation among youth, and to break down the barriers brought about by a lack of understanding, communication and political misinformation. The network acts as a linkage between the governments, non- governmental organizations and young people of the world. YBF allows youth a framework for global co-operation in developing action plans to solve critical issues. University of Waterloo’s YBF chapter has traditionally centred around annual international conferences, to which 2-3 Canadians (or landed immigrants) are selected each year to attend, Themes of these conferences vary and are chosen by the host coun-

nd so I begin to wonder about the difference between socialism and fascism. It is no secret that the left is under considerable strain and pressure from all sides to, in the words of Bob Rae even, “get real.” Everyone in Ontario hates the NDP; everyone in l3C hates the NDP. Everyone, it seems, hates anything to do with leftist politics. Just how can one justib oneself as being a socialist or even a social democrat in this environment! These are the questions I ask myself. Socialism is a system based on people {iving to the system and allowing themselves to be told what to do. For instance, Ontarions pay sales tax and Ontario employers pay OtilP gremiums for their employees. From this, taxDayers get to drive on well maintained roads and can rely on the police to serve and protect :hem, usually. Also, we can allgo to the hospital Ind receive seemingly free medical attention. This system is all very socialist because each individual is giving to the government for :he benefit of the whole. However, this system 5 also very fascist. Every time you decide to purchase a Ihocolate bar even, you are forced to pay eight >er cent ofthe cost ofthat chocolate bar to the government, or else you won’t legally be alowed to purchase that chocolate bar. Also, tverytime you take your life into your own lands and not obey that red light on your bike, rou risk a $73.75 fine at the hands of those iame police. Again, you have no right to decline hat fine. This is all very fascist because the indiridual is forced to go along with the desires of he establishment which most often concern he general public more than the individual. r’ou have to be protected for the sake of everyone else because you would drain the nedical system if you were to be hit by a car rvhile running that red light and required neu-osurgery. So is it really fascist? Or is it really socialst? This is a great paradox in society. So long LSindividuals piay along with the system freely t maintains itself as socialist The moment an ndividual, such as me or you, gets pissed off at ,omeone and breaks some rules, we are wel:omed by the fascist arms of society. S o vhat does it mean to be a leftist/socialist and vhy would anybody want to be one when ocialism can be such an easily disguised fas:ism? I liken my answer to the former Soviet Jnion. The common western response to the :ollapse of the Soviet Union is that commulism obviously failed, which is wrong. Commulism didn’t fail, the people who tried the ommunist experiment failed, simply because hey weren’t really communist, To be socialist/communist is to believe in he welfare of the entire nation over that of the Idividual. However, this does not mean that he individual must be ignored at all costs.

Ivery individual must be empowered through he political system to have some concrete neasure of control over the establishment, which the leaders of the Soviet Union simply tiled to do. They weren’t socialists, they were ticists.

In our society, the only reason this socialit/fascist paradox exists is because every individual isn’t empowered to be a part of the istablishment The establishment should seek o include those who don’t want to pay taxes I the system, through more effective systems If representation and more community based politics. If the individual is empowered in his

ommunity, he will be better empowered in he nation. SO, to those who would say that socialism i really just fascism, 1say; maybe but it doesn’t lave to be. so iong as people participate and >rce the establishment to let them in the door o responsibility.

Atheist enrages To the editor= I was enraged when I read Craig Nickerson’s latest article, “Reports of God’s Death...Exaggerated.” Mr. Nickerson showed disrespect to all religions, particularly mine, Christianity, the one religion that Mr. Nickerson considers to be most familiar to him. He also showed disrespect for my God by referring to Him as a “hoary old bugger.” I wonder if Mr. Nickerson knows that if he had made this same remark in the time of Christ, he could have been punished by death. In addition, Mr. Nickerson continually showed his lack of intelligence as a writer throughout his article. For example, how can Mr. Nickerson relate anything between Protestants and Branch Davidians, one is a religion, another is a & Secondly, referring to a Catholic’s God in the same respect as jehovah Witness’ God is clearly irrelevant, ]ehovah Witnesses believe in Jehovah, their manifestation of God. Thirdly, Mr Nickerson you have forcibly expressed distaste and hate towards other religions in an attempt to promote your own atheism. This makes you a hypocrite Mr. Nickerson, based on what you have said regarding the fighting between Protestants, Catholics, Muslims, and Jews. If you don’t see why, let me point out that the preceding groups killing of one another were done out of an initial hate and distaste for the other’s religion. You are promoting the same hate that has started these wars. Mr. Nickerson, if people believe in something, whether it is religion or not, it is still credible in their eyes. Therefore, respect towards their beliefs should still be evident when forming an opinion about their beliefs, especially from yourself, a so-called “writer.” With this in mind, I suggest Mr. Nickerson that before you discuss the credibility of religion, or in your feeble attempt, atheism, try toget some credibility as a writer by getting your facts straight Kevin fergin Civil Engineehg

Craig responds, at3oloaizes To the editor: Hi Jeff Zavia. Your editorial last week needs both a reply and an apology of sorts. First the apology. I made a bad choice of words when I said in my column on stripping,that I “enjoywatching and participating in the dance routine of a stripper...” The word “enjoy” seemed to many of my friends to imply that watching stripping gave me a certain perverted fantasy that I enjoyed revelling in. My intention was notto say anything akin to that and its connotations of insensitivity which you speak about. I’m sorry for my mistake; although I tried to cover myself in the last paragraph by saying the dancer cannot be

“thingified”, but is fundamentally a person. In a five hundred word column one can only say so much. In that particular c&in~ I was questioning the “perverted” sexuality of many a client of strip shows. An analysis of the entire situation is just not possible in the space allotted. Iwas brought up with a working class consciousness, and believe it or not Jeff, I was trying to defend women (some whom I have known personally) who due to their situation see stripping as a way to pay the rent and have the occasional beer - some of them are even married and have children, and some, if you can leave the books and statistics for a moment, like performing and dislike it when nobody watches. (I perform in different ways and I know what they mean.) The religious moralists, over politicized women and so-called sensitive guys are simply caricatures (as I mentioned) of three of my housemates last year and the type of positions they represent to me. I find all three of these kinds to be quite “scary”, especially when they become committed to a cause they believe in (fanaticism has many a strange face.) If you read my article on the Virgin Mary and the whore, you’ll probably see that my view echoes much of what you mentioned about dividing women into sluts and innocents. As a Christian Incarnationalist, I do my best to dignify all human beings, especially the people outcaste from the sort of institution that you and I are both attending (not many strippers or viewers ever get even the chance to get this far or finish high school.) I love the class and type of people 1 was encultured into, and feel that university by its nature has estranged me from my own self. I sincerely believe, Jeff, that the situation of life for most people is much more complex than either you or I can get in a student paper- Initiating a religion column was not to inflate myself or the religion I associated myself with. Anyhow, thanks for the re-

Canada is. history Quebec will go First, I would like to state who I am. My name is Claude Theoret. I was raised in Eastern Ontario in a small town populated by a 2/3 French to English mix. Up to this election I have always believed that French and English Canada could make things work, de* spite our religious, linguistic and political differences and despite many incidents of strong anti-French sentiment in my past, my days here at UW certainly being of no exception. Even after the failure of the Meech Lake and Charlottetown accords, I still could see Canada being united. Afterall; these accords were the result of politicians dealing behind closed doors 07 a desperate attempt at trying to makq a patch work deal. The people them+ selves had not stated their opinions, yet. This election has dashed that hope for me. The dramatic rise of the Rei form Party and their policy of ending federal funding for official bilingualism has finally persuaded me that whatever hopes French Canadians and the resi of Canada (ROC) had of co-existin’ have ended. Don’t mistake me, I af , not blaming the Reform Party for this. The party is doing its job in represent; ing what the sentiments of a large portion of Canadians believe. It is a clear message that enough people in ROC don’t believe in bilingualism, that the attempt made to bridge the differences between the English and French cultures in Canada was basically a waste of money. At the same time, the implementation of the unconstitutional Bill I01 in Quebec was an equal sign that official bilingualism, was too little too late for Quebec. Even though the English minority in Quebec is still one of the best served in Canada (3 English universities in the province, a minimum hiring quota for Anglophones in the provincial civil service and an abundance of English TV and radio stations and newspapers), it is easy to see why English Canadians all over Canada cringe at such a law. But on the other hand Quebeckers aren’t stupid. They have always had to know English in order to survive in North America and hence English has, and always well be, a language widely practised in Quebec. Ariy trip to the Montreal Jazz Festival or to the Carnaval ii7 Quebec City wiH show you that they can be easily coaxed into speaking English if their livelihoods are at stake. This need to speak French is not as previlent in English Canada. Why has bilingualism not worked in ROC? Maybe, anti-French sentiment left over from the days of Lord Ourham? Maybe, the fear that English C?nadians are losing their positions gf power, a la APEC? Or maybe, simpb because the majority of English speaking Canadians simply can’t see the use

upset. She (that would be he - ed.)claimed that, “things are getting better environmentally”, proceeded to quote statistics from ONE source book, and then predicted that one year from now Clayoquot Sound will be a long forgotten fad, akin to hula-hoops. I have several things to say in response to this. Just because the consumption of resources is decreasing and their existence upon the earth is increasing does not mean that “things are getting better”. Things are, in fact, getting worse. Pollution levels of air and water (resources which Sandy failed to mention) are at all time highs. Human beings are dying of such wonderful things as lung disease and infection by water borne parasites, which are direct results of environmental degradation. Rare species of

the “fad” of awareness and action about the demolition of Canada’s ancient rainforest has been spread across Canada and across the world. Thanks to these people, some international companies have already cancelled their contracts to purchase Clayoquot lumber and paper products. Saving Clayoquot Sound is important to the biological diversity and wellbeing of this planet. If the hype dies down by next year, it wiIl be because the media and the public have become bored with the issue. Even if this hap pens, I will still commend the Friends of Clayoquot for convincing the media to shine their spotlight on Clayoquot for a few weeks or months. I will take pride in my participation in Clayoquot protests this summer, and I will continue

of learning a second hguage here in this sea of English which is North America, Whatever the reasons are is not important. What is important is that we realize that bilingualism and mutticulturalism has failed, certainly in Western Canada. There is no other conclusion when one realizes just how many people support the abolition of federal funding for bilingualism and the ending of “hyphenated Canadianism” which is put forward by the Reform Party. I think that Lucien Bouchard realized this earlier on when ROC at the last minute decided to turn its back on an accord that was signed a year earlier by atl ten provinces. If this election has made me doubt the future and reality of federalism and made me that much moreasovereignist it is not because I dislike English Canadians, to the contrary having lived with English Canadians all my life and having come here to UW the majority of the people I care for and call my friends are English Canadians. Similarly if Quebec decides to separate, they will not be rejecting English Canadians. They will be rejecting the idea of federalism. This election has showed me more than any failed accord what is the political reality that is Canada. Thatthere are indeed deeply conflicting views of Canada. After I25 years of trying to unite two solitudes there is one situation emerging from the people themselves: a sovereign Quebec and a Canada that is lifted of the burden of trying to accommodate a persistent French minority.

Don’t hide behind Christianity, Ken To the editor, Ken [Craig& I have written this letter in response to your second last piece (column on strippers) not to antagonize you nor to quarrel with your right to voice your views.

“I’m done. ‘+ Truth.

Regardless of what topic you choose to write about, whether it has a religious orientation or not, it is slanderous to write anything that is not based on fact. Secondly, on what basis are you writing in the name of Student Christian Movement? (I may add that the SCM was once known for its good biblical scholarship) Has the SCM authorized you as its spokesman? Moreover, why do you claim to speak under the banner of any religious organization? Thirdly, why do you try to legitimize yourself and conceal yourself behind the name of Christianity? For example, why did you claim in your column thatJesus enjoyed watching women strip when there is absolutely no biblical basis for such a reading? If you enjoy watching women strip that is up to you. But why is it necessary to bring Jesus into your article? From my perspective you are desecrating the word of God and perhaps that is your intent. You are probably not interested in my Christian commitments. But at least Ken stop seeking legitimization for your perversion and expose yourself so everybody can see

I don’t understand why you choose to devote as much time to frivolity as you do. People like yourself rnay have some hope of attaining some measure of credibility if you would only shift your attention from flashing your breasts in public and syntax discreprancies to real issues like pay equity and equal representation in the work place. I mean, just how long are you going to harp on the spelling of “woman”, and where is it going to end? If this spelling idiocy continues, monkeys will become nunneys, harbors would have marker buoys and marker guirls , and when I go to the pet store tlo buy a dog I will have to choose between a Doberwoman Pinscher and a Hener Spaniel. The fact that you dwell on such insignificance labels you as a shit disturber as opposed to the revolutionary you probably see yourself as. I wish that people like you would stop misrepresenting supporters of equal rights like myself. For you equality is not enough; you seek to exact a pound of flesh. I am not attempting to imply that women have not been penecuted over the years, but your “war reparations” approach to equality seeks to segregate further as opposed to achieving equality. I am also tired of people like you and your buillt in double standard. When you get together with a group of women to support each other and discuss issues facing your sex, you call yourselves feminists. If I did the same with a group of men, you would call me a chauvinist. This consistent double standard and sexism that people like you display is supposedly what you are seeking to abolish. And one final thing, if you want to know what it’s like to be a member of an oppressed minority, try being a white heterosexual male for a day. Chris

“Say (GOD)

Poppies and Enemies by Ken Craig “It is an easy thing to laugh at wrathful elements to hear the dog howl at the wintry door, the ox in the slaughter house to moan; to see a god on every wind and a blessing on every blast to hear sounds of love in the thunder storm that destroys our enemies house; to rejoice in the blight that covers his field and th sickness that cuts off his children While our olive and vine sing and laugh round our door and our children bring fruits and flowers.” - Willian

Blake

I have always believed in wearing a poppy on the lapel of my coat in the autumn. For me the poppy is a symbol of the tragedies of war and all the creatures human and otherwise caught in this tragedy. Although I wear a poppy I find it awfully difficult to attend Remembrance Day ceremonies in Canada. Not because the ceremonies honour the soldiers who fought and even gave their lives for their country, but because these qremonies never seem to take into account that on the other side of the battlefield there were also people who also fought and gave their lives for what they believed in. ._ Besides all the actual killing, torture, and destruction of wars, their greatest tragedy may be the necessary dehumanization of the people known simply as “the enemy.” This

process of dehumanizing and even satanizing the enemy is a tactic in war propoganda reaching back into biblical times, including some of our first accounts of human history. Denying the person hood of the enemy makes it easier toget around the ethical problems of killing a creature endowed with the same humanity as the people one is trying to protect. Today more than ever the propaganda surrounding war has a sinister tone to it due to the use of the television in the service of the war campaign. The clearest and most frightful example came from the United States during the not so distant Gulf War. Controlling the media in an example of Orwellian “doublespeak” in a free country, the officials of the United States turned the massacre of thousands upon thousands of people [civilians. included] into an abstract computerized game, much like the nintendo many North Americans lose themselves in. By denying the screams and the blood of the enemy, we commit the great sin of denying the fact that our enemy is made in thevery image of the god who is responsible for all of our existences. During this season let us remember all the people, both enemy and friend, who are the tragic victims in the human insanity that we call war. Let us remember that our enemies consist of children who laugh and sing while carrying fruits and flowers to the people they love.

(0 Muhammad), who has forbidden the beautiful gifts of ALLAH which HE has produced for HIS servants, and the things clean and pure which HE has provided for sustenance? ..” mtranslation of the meaning of part of the Qur’anic verse 7~32

by Sam&

E. R&an

It is true that Islam does not permit people td be dominated or enslaved by such desires. Ari individual who is thoroughly absorbed in satisvind his/her passions brings about an early enervation of her/his vital energy. Besides, all this person’s efforts and thoughts will be devoted to the satisfaction of his/her desires. What Islam requires of the young people, in this respect, is to control their passions without repressing them, to control them willingly and consciously, that is, to suspend their satisfaction until the suitable time (when they get married). This call for controlling the passions is not an arbitrary ordinance intended to deprive people of the pleasures of life, for history bears witness that no nation could safeguard its sovereignty without being able to control its passions or abstain willingly from some permitted pleasures. Subject m the limits that are meant to prevent the individual from inflicting harm upon his/ her ownself, other individuals, the family, or society, Islam permits her/him full enjoyment of the pleasures of life. In fact, Islam frankly calls on people to enjoy the pleasures of life. This article is excerpted from the. Islamic book ‘Islam: The Misunderstood Religion’ by

First, what is repression? Freud, who spent most of his life criticizing religion for repressing people’s activities, gave us a definition of repression in his book ‘Three Contributions to the Sexual Theory’. He says: ‘distinction should be made between the unconscious repression and the abstention from performing the instinctive act - which is a mere suspension of the act.’ Agreed! Repression is synonymous to the feeling that the instinctive act is dirty or wrong. Tempomry suspension of the act is NOT repression. Now, does religion repress the vital energy of humans? Let’s wait for a moment; in this column, we are not concerned with religion in general: we are discussing Islam. No other religion is as frank as Islam in recognizing the natural motives and treating them as clean and healthy. The Qur’an names the earthly desires (having sex, children, money, wealth, land, horses , ...etc.) and recognizes them as a matter of fact and states that they are desirable things to humans. The Qur’an does NOT object to these desires as such nor does It disapprove of such feelings. Islam recognizes the sexual instinct so frankly that Prophet Muhammad said: ‘From the pleasures of the world, perfume and women were endeared to Me; and the delight of My eye is prayer.’ The sexual instinct is elevated to the rank similar to that of the best perfume on earth, and it is bracketed with prayer which is the best means by which humans may come closer to GOD.

Agnostics

asserting any new propositions, but that he is simply denying the truth of the theist’s propositions on the grounds of lack of evidence. The agnostic’s position is untenable in that he assumes that the statements “There is a god” and “There is not a god” are both propositions of the same type and that both require evidence. The first makes a claim about the world, the second is simply a refutation of this first claim. If I claim to have a purple dragon in my pocket, and I want you to believe that this is so, then I must produce the purple dragon. If I cannot produce said dragon, then you have no reason to believe that it exists. It is not up to you to prove that my pocket is, in fact, empty. The agnostic errs when he assumes that, as the atheist cannot prove the non-existence of god, the atheist’s position is based on an uncertainty. This point is made clear when we take intoaccount what type of propositions Huxley asserted that we ought to reject: “That which all agnostics deny and repudiate, as immoral, is the contrary doctrine, that there are propositions which men ought to believe, without logically satisfactory evidence; and that reprobation ought to attach to the profession of disbelief in such inadequately supported propositions.” This is, in actuality, the atheist’s position. Agnostics do not follow through on this assertion. If we do not have logically satisfactory evidence for the proposition that there is a god, then we should not believethis proposition to be true. The agnostic professes uncertainty as to the existence of god, he lacks satisfactory evidence for god’s existence, thus he should reject the assertion that there is a god. The agnostic’s desire to maintain that he cannot be certain as to whether there is or isn’t a god, is logically unsound. This is not to say that one might not have doubts one way or the other, but only in the sense that one might feel that he has not examined all the evidence. If one has, however, examined the evidence for the existence of god and found this evidence unsatisfactory, then one should attach disbelief to the assertion that there is a god.

Okay, lets leave the modemte Christian alone this week and turn our attention to that most adept of fence-sitters, the agnostic. An agnostic, as the term has come to be used today, is one who claims not to be sure whether there is or isn’t a god. While this all seems terribly open minded, the agnostic is no more rational than the theist. In fact, referring to one’s self as an agnostic seems to have a lot more to do with the desire to compromise than to keep an open mind. Only in a society in which we strive to please everyone and his dog, in which we live in fear of stepping on anyone’s toes, could a man hold his head high and claim to be an agnostic. The term “agnostic” was first coined by Sir Thomas Huxley in 1869. Huxley was concerned with demonstrating that the theologians of his day really had no certain knowledge on which to base their beliefs, so far so good. He adopted the term agnostic, meaning “without knowledge” in order to distinguish himself from the Church who was sure that they had attained a certain ‘gnosis” or “knowledge”. Huxley did not deny the existence of god, just the evidence on which the belief in god was based. In this way he was able to maintain, and herein lies the problem, that the existence of god was still probable. Considering the society in which he was living, this was a prudent move on his part. Huxley was able to claim that one could only come to believe in god through something other than knowledge, specifically, faith. As a staunch supporter of Darwin, Huxley was interested in keeping scientific investigation free from religious dogma. His agnosticism allowed him to challenge specific religious doctrine without having to publicly deny the existence of god. In his essay “Agnosticism and Christianity” he outlines the basic agnostic position: “...it is wrong for a man to say that he is certain of the objective truth of any proposition unless he can produce evidence which logically justifies that certainty.” It is important to note here that the atheist is not

Obviously they are able to use our deposits to make very profitable investments. However, it must be noted that in our economy, profitability only refers to financial gain. For a company to make money, it has to be an inequitable trader. That is to say that it must take more from its customers/employees than it gives to them in return. Such lopsided barter is usually the product of four primary causes.

of religiosity, or a toss of wisdom in the face of overarching rationality. Boosters of modernity hold that the missing element is in fact a liberation from a previous bondage - perhaps a liberation from religious ignorance, or a liberation from arbitrary thought processes. In sum, modernity is seen as either a regrettable loss of, or a necessary unfettering from, the idea of transcendence. Taylor holds that both of these loss theories are disastrous as they both fail to grasp the kinds of goods that truly characterize our (post)modern society. Both views see values as culturally neutral.

Understand Modern Age

Last week this space was dedi= cated to analyzing the basis for governmental poker in our (post)modern age. This week, this space shall investigate two different ways of understanding our (post)modern age, as presented by Charles Taylor . Both articles are based on the lecture that he delivered at WLU over the weekof oa.

The first perpetuator of uneven trading is the maintenance of perceived need at a level which is higher than real need. (Such is the result of the advertising blitzkrieg which rains down on us ceaselessly.) The second is the existence of monopolies which force purchasers to pay for necessary goods or services at prices in excess of their real worth. A third condition that maintains this imbalance is the impoverishment of workers where access to employment is scarce enough to force them to accept substandard wages for the work they do. Finally, unequal trading will always remain where key decisions are made outside of the community they effect. In any of these cases, your gain is someone else’s loss. The Local Employment and Trading System doesn’t rely on growth through the diversion of wealth. It

imaging of what it means to be an individual, and this ought to be at the root of any view of modernity. In other words, the question is one of what it means to exist within this new social matrix. The key word here is authenticiv, and this is where Taylor’s theory starts to break down in my view. Taylor embraces authenticity from the starting plaint of Herder - authenticity is simply to be ones’ self. Taylor refuses to elaborate on this any further, except to say that an individual cannot become authentic by himself, he requires a social interaition. This rather obvious appositive is quite tautolo= gous in the face of the above definition of authenticity which stressed the social matrix as constitutive to authenticity. If modernity is engendering a new view of individuality, how are we to undeirstand any view as veridical unless we have some sort of manner of measuring what it means to be authentic? But to Taylor, “measuring” authenticity is to miss the point = how can you measure yourself! ‘Yet, to counter this, authenticity implies that inauthenticity exists, and only through some process of ‘*measurement” can we distinguish between the two. If one is to talk of authenticity, the term better have a definite meaning. At the root of the question is, how can I truly know myself? Or better yet, can I know myself? A better definition of authenticity is needed, one that escapes the fuzzy logilc of self awareness. Taylor shys away from any existentialist understanding of authenticity = authenticity as a resolute awafeness of the implications of one’s own finite grasp on life. Here ,we have a true background; one that stresses both autonomy and social interaction; one that ought to satisfy both the boosters and the knockers, both groups whom I applaud Taylor for attacking. But Taylor does not go far enough. In fact, the corollary to Taylor’s failure here is hb ultimate wishy-washy outcome: that we are to embrace the good things about modernity. and be aware of the pitfalls. After three nights of lectures, I would have hoped that a better conclusion could have been reached - perhaps a conclusion that soid something.

The Black Plague infested the varsity team from Windsor, stole their Lance, and skewered the Chicken Hawks from taurier in their first two games in the OUAA West division, last Wednesday and Friday, respectively. They also played Wednesday night Brock, but the score was not available at press time. The Plague travelled three-and-ahalf hours to Windsor to play a game that took just a little over an hour to complete. With the Warriors struggling through their first match, they managed to hang on to win I7- 15. Rolling through their next two matches, 15-7, and 15-9, the Plague shattered the Lancers at the net, and on defence. Matt Reed led the way with six digs and Rene Holt was skying, accumulating I5 kills. Kent Prete, Al Schroeder, and Shawn Smith ate up the Windsor attack with a total of six stuffs. All and all, the first match of the year was good, but not anywhere near the potential this team possess; this was shown on Friday night when they plucked the feathers off the Hawks. The first home game at Waterloo saw an impressive display by the Warriors, sending the boys from that high school down the street home with a record of I - I, while the Plague remains

undefeated at 2-O. The stands were packed for the first home game of the Warrior’s regular season, and the team did not let their fans down devastating their opponents 15-6, IS- IO, and 15-2. Pete Denison lead the way defensively with four stuff blocks while Shawn Smith had six digs. Offensively, Matt Reed sent the Hawks running for the hen house as he buried countless balls into the floor and occasionally off of a potential defender. An impressive display was shown by Perry Strauss at the net, both blocking and hitting. Also noteworthy was the play of rookie Brian Snooks who came off the bench to jump serve against the Hawks, a very difficult position to be put in and one which he handled extremely well. After starting the season with a second-place finish in an exhibition tournament at Queen’s and devastating both York (3-I) and the University of Toronto (3-O) at Guelph in a minitournament, the Plague, now 2-O in regular season, can only get better. Their next home game is against Western next Wednesday, November 17, at the PAC at 890 p.m. Come on out and watch the Black Plague send the ‘Stangs to the glue factory. One other note, to the fans of Mr. Schroeder, cheers, and well done! Bring more noise makers and more people to the next game!

Bronze for basketball Athenas by Shannon VkznKoughnett Imprint sports Last weekend, our Athena basketball players did not win their own tournament, the Waterloo Invitational, as they had hoped. But they did learn a few things about themselves. First of all, they learned that even when they play far below par, they can tike on any team that is brave enough to face them. Secondly, they realized there is only so much the coach can do; thirdly they learned that in a league where almost all of the teams are equal, the team with the most heart eventually will come out on top. These lessons will come in handy now that exhibition is over and the real battles begin. Friday afternoon, the women cagers faced the chickenhawks of taurier. Despite the fact that the Athenas were not happy with their play, they won the game 68-3 I. Second-year co-captain Kim Stusyk led the Athenas with I9 points and IO boards. Forward Sue Kruis grabbed I I rebounds and point guard Janice Awad had four steals and three assists. As a whole, the team ripped down an impressive 52 rebounds, I8 of which were offensive. Susan Rymsha led Laurier with IO points. In Saturday’s game, the team met the eventual tournament champions, the Concordia Stingers. Getting off to a slow start, our Athenas were down by I5 at the half. Never being the type of team to

quit or be intimidated by getting trash talked in French, they fought back to outscore the Stingers in the second half, but it wasn’t enough. The final score was 60-48 for Concordia. Co-captain Janice Awad, who was named to the tournament all-star team, led the Athenas with I4 points, 6 rebounds and 5 steals. The scoring for Concordia was spread out among six players. In the final game of the three-day tournament, Waterloo squared off against the York Yeowomen (Yikes! What’s a Yeo?!) Water100 once again got off to a slow start, and this time they just couldn’t make a comeback. Kruis had I I points and four steals and co-captain Laurie Kraemer tore down five boards and also had four steals to lead the Athenas. York got I t points and nine rebounds from tournament all-star Karen Jackson which helped them to their 603? victory over UW. The Athena hoopsters are not in action again untiI Wednesday, November I 7 when they play their first league game at Laurier. Come on out and support our women hoopsters at 8 p.m. in the Hawk gym. (It’s realty not that hard to find; just look for the building on University Ave. that looks like a high school but calls itself a university). In the meantime, the Athenas will be practising hard and cheering on our men in the prestigious Naismith Tournament being held this weekend. Go Waterloo! Slam it, jam it, and make sure it’s broke.

Warriors’

by Nicholas Mizzu Imprint sports Two of Waterloo’s toughest opponents came to the Icefields on Friday and Sunday last week to play in the Warriors’ two home games of the season, and while the Warrior Ice-Men played two strong games, they only managed to come away with one out of a possible four points. Friday, November 5 saw the Western Mustangs ride into town, sporting their perfect 4-O-O record. One of those wins was a IO-S result over Waterloo in Western’s home opener, so the Warriors were looking to redeem themselves against the rich-kid brats from London in Waterloo’s home opener. Things didn’t look good from the start, as Western scored three times in the first period, with Waterloo having a hard time getting shots on the Western goaltender. Meanwhile, James Organ, in net for the Warriors, was being liberally peppered with shots. Late in the first period, the Warriors began co play their style of hockey, and shut the Western scoring machine down. Any shots that managed to get past the defence and backchecking forwards were cleared away by Organ, who was solid in net throughout the-game. Waterloo spent the rest of the game chipping away at the score, putting a goal in the Western net in each period, and having several other excellent opportunities. Warrior goals were scored by rookie Sheldon Gilchrist, goalmeister Jason Mervyn, and defenceman John Wynne. Wynne and Mervyn also had assists during the game, Notable by his absence was Warrior head coach Don McKee, who has not missed a home opener in his nine years with the Warriors. However, late Thursday night coach McKee received news that his mother had suffered a heart attack Unfortunately, she passed away later that night, and Family concerns obviously took precedence over the game. Our thoughts and condolences are with the coach and his family duringthis difficult time.

held the lead throughout the game. At the end of one, the score was knotted at one, with winger Greg Allen scoring on a breakaway. Allen completely deked the Hawk goalie Rick Pracey out of his pants, and gently putting it past the netminder as he sprawled helplessly on the ice, looking remarkably similar to a fish on land.

managed to keep the shot totals on Organ down during the game, but the chances that were available were usually breakaways and two-onones where Organ had little chance of stopping the puck In the end, the final score was 7-3 for the Golden Chickens. The, three Waterloo goals came from Greg Allen, rookie Marc Vaughan, and that scoring madman, Jason Mervyn, who now has eight regular season goals for the Warriors to his credit After the game, the frustration of the players was evident, and several voiced their view that the team was not playing as a team, and they were nor taking the game seriously enough. The intensity level of some Warriors seemed to fluctuate wildly throughout the match, going from full steam to full stopOther players let their intensity get the better of them, as they took needless penalties and got caught retaliating by the ref. In this category can be placed super-pest Dean MacDonald, who was called for spearing. In addition to his five minute major, he was given a match penalty, which entails at least a three game suspension, Returning from a pre-season injury, defenceman Mark Cardiff, formerly of the Kitchener Rangers, hatd two assists in the two weekend games. Cardiff is now on a point-per-game pace, and hopes to continue this, as well as to increase his penalty minute totals. For some unknown reason, he feels that this improves his game. Possibly this causes other teams to be cowed by his fearsome totals, but who knows. The Warriors play at hbme again on Saturday and Sunday, and they stiy seek their first win of the season. Without uyin@o jinx it, ortake any opponent too lightly, there is a strong possibility that Waterloo will pick up their first win this weekend. Saturday at 2:00 p.m. sees Waterloo host Ryerson, while the opposition on Sunday at 100 p.m. will be Laurentian. A strong fan contingent should help the hockey Warriors win these crucial games:

NAISMITH

November by Peter

Imprint

Brown

The St Francis Xavier X-Men are not back for the 26th Annual Naismith Classic starting today at the PAC, but we may not even notice, given the national calibre of this year’s draw. The Winnipeg Wesmen edged the X-Men 69-65 in last year’s Naismith, but St FX exacted sweet revenge by winning the national title last March, while the Wesmen, ranked number one for much of the 1992-93 season, bowed out in the first round of the eight-team CIAU title tourney. The Wesmen want another crack at the CIAU championship, and where better to start that quest than here at the PAC, where they will try to defend their Naismith ‘92 title this weekend. Winnipeg will have to fight off some serious contenders for the pre-season crown, especially the OUAA champion Ottawa Gee Cees, the OUAA West winning Western Mustangs, and the St Mary’s Huskies. But what about the Warriors? Despite the apparent improvements in the depth of its roster, this Waterloo team has yet to gel enough to beat teams like Winnipeg. Here’s to hopingthe Warriors can prove me wrong, especially with the return to the lineup of point guard B. J. York. Last year’s OUAA West rookie of the year sprained his ankle badly during an intrasquad game three weeks ago and has not played since. “8. J. practised hard on Monday, but he’ll take it easy for the rest of the week so he’s rested for Friday night,” Warrior head coach Tom Kieswetter told Imprint “He’s not going to be 100 per cent, but if we’ve got him 90 per cent, he’s going to be a great asset” This page and page I8 contain short previews and the rosters of the eight participating teams, plus the complete tournament schedule. And remember, this is not competition, only an exhibition -- please, no wagering.

The Warriors look to return some consistency to heir offence with the return of B. J. York to the lineup. His presence is crucial for the Warrior scoring effort, as it allows Sean VanKoughnett to concentrate on his forward duties and Alex Urosevic to seek lots of outside screens.

earned their reputation as a team that can play with anybody. Returning for the Mustangs is potential all-Canadian Mike Lynch, the leading scorer in the conference last year. Lynch averaged 28 points per game at the Nationals. Point guard Brendan Noonan, a t e a m leader and outstanding defensive player and centre John Vermeeren, who had some outstanding clutch performances late in the year are also backfor the Mustangs. A more than pleasant surprise in 1992-93, sophomore Blake Gage returns at guard. Rookie sensation from I99 I - I 992 Brad Campbel I is also back following major reconstructive surgery to an injured knee last season. With a number of other key young players returning and the addition of five newcomers this year’s Mustangs should have significantly more depth at every position and greater overall versatility than last year’s squad. It is the most experienced and mature team since Western won the National Championship in I99 I. Only Noonan and Lynch remain from that team.

Can you say rebuilding year? The Golden Hawks are going to have a tough time competing in the OUAA West this year, let alone at a tournament with nationally ranked teams showing up. They finished in the bottom half of the division last year and lost almost all of their veterans to graduation. Fourth-year forward Shawn Roach is the only player older than a sophomore on a roster which includes seven rookies, None of the Hawk front court has the height to be a dominating post player, but the 6’6” Roach has a stable of players his size to provide depth for thd f&at-d spots.

Fourth-year man Jeff Battrer, known for his three-point shots and kamikaze defensive play, will see more playing time as his game has progressed. Last year’s record of I l-3 should not be difficult to match, and the team hopes to progress beyond the AUAA final, which they lost the CIAU champions last year. Provided the second-year men and transfer players come into their own, this team could be the best that St. Mary’s has ever sent into action. Great things are expected from 6’7” Srian Luinstra, and 6’6” Dwayne Hemmings, both second-year players, as well as vetean guard 6’4” Mike Dixon and transfer forward 6’8” Bill Seaward.

Another exciting swim meet was held at the PAC Pool last Saturday, Nov. 6, with the Athenas and Warriors competing against Guelph and Queen’s. Waterloo crushed the Golden Gaels and lost to the Gryphons, but certainly not without a good fight A highlight from the meet was when the men’s 4-by-50 free relay team of Ian liunt, Terry Boyko, Chris Nagy, and Ed Furs showed their increased speed and improved abilities when they beat Queen’s by four seconds and Cuelph by over seven seconds. This was the Warriors’ strongest relay of the year. Their performance illustrated the mens overall improvement in the pool and their ability to work well as a team. Rookie Ed Furs had excellent individual swims; he showed his strength in the 100 free when he won the race, over the game Cuelph and Queen’s swimmers. In the 800 free, Furs proved he has enduranceabilitiesas well. Throughout the race, it looked as if Furs would be one of the last-place finishers. However, he surprised us all by working the last half of the race (4:00 split to 4: 14) and coming in second place. Fellow rookie Chris Nagy was close behind Guelph in the 100 fly. Nagy also took a third place in the IO0 breast. Veteran Ian Hunt set another example for the rookies when he swam a

solid 22.2-second 50 free; he also had a second place in one of his secondary events, the IO0 back Other strong swims achieved by the men’s team included veteran Brian Roughley placing third in the 800 free, Terv Boyko winning second-place finishes in the 400 individual medley and the 400 free, and Andrew Cartwright with a second in the 200 free. The women’s team was just as successful as the men’s, Rookie Tereza Mace1 crushed the competition when she swam the 800 free and placed first. This was followed with another great swim by second-year veteran Amy Jarvis, winning the 200 free. Rookie Veronica Stephenson surprised everyone when she received a well deserved first-place finish in the IO0 free. Fellow Athena Christine Gueriero had a couple of smashing swims, placing second in the 50 free and third in the IO0 fly. Teammate Kara Rice also placed third in the 50 free. Melissa Williams had a solid second-place swim in the 100 breast Macel, Gueriero, Rice, and Jarvis made up the 4-by-50 free relay, finishing off the meet with a successful second-place showing. Overall, the swim team had a number of excellent races. Waterloo challenges Brock today (Friday) at 5 p.m. at the PAC Pool. Tomorrow (Saturday, Nov. I3), they challenge the alumni swimmers at I2 p.m. Both promise to be great meets so we encourage every&to come out and watch.

Saturday was a successful day for the varsity figure skating team. The team hosted the Waterloo Invitational Skating Competition at Columbia leefields. Representatives from nine universities took part in the one-day competition. Waterloo finished the day with a strong first-place standing beating the second place team by over 20 points.

The free skating events began with a first place finish byAngela Birch in the intermediate singles category. Sharlene Slater placed second in the technical program and Valorie Miller placed sixth in the Senior B Singles event Lesley Neave finished second in SeniorAsinglesand Carolyn Chuiended with fourth place in the open singles event.

And they did just that. Warrior squash continues the tradition of being one of Waterloo’s most fierce and winning teams by winning I7 of I8 matches at the RAC. Their 17, I record was more than enough to place first at the Ryerson Invitational. Last weekend’s squad was without veterans Tyler Millard (number two) and Colin Leong, but still managed to defeat McMaster 6-0, Ryerson 6-O. and Guelph 5-l.

The team was anchored by Neel Vyas, who showed that summer squash pays off by winning all of his three matches wihout losing a game. Brian Eidridge (number five) proved to be too fast and too strong for his opponents as he also won all of his three matches 3-O. Kitchener native and number-four Andrew Olijnyk, sporting his new length game as his artillery, won all three of his matches 3-O and beguiled his Guelph opponent 9-0,9-O, 9-O. Consistently improving at number three, Eric Kamel had a strong showing by defeating all three of his opponents with little difficulty. Oldest Warrior Mike Zidar (numbertwo)won hisfirsttwomatches 3-O but lost a thriller to his muchimproved Guelph rival. This match w+nt the distance as Guelph needed over

and hour to sneak out the win and handed Waterloo its only loss on the weekend. Number one Warrior Bruce Marrison also won all of his three matches, defeating McMaster S-0, Guelph 3-1, and Ryerson 3-2 in what proved to be the longest match of the tournament. Not playing on the weekend but also on the Waterloo squad were Jeremy Sneider, Dean Serrao, and Joel Schoenner. The Warrion have finished in the top three of the 0UM finals over the last three years and plan to equal that performance and give Western a run for the gold medal. The next step in this year’s quest is to equal this weekend’s performance next weekend in Guelph for the Western Sectionals.

King Apparatus Bombshelter November 4, I993

Pat

Merlihan

Imprint stuff Itwas a night unlike any other, except King Apparatus was in town. The band was there, there was lots of cold beer, but where were all the people? Despite the small showing that turned out to rock, jump, bounce, and downright boogie to King Apparatus, the band proved that they could play to any crowd. Their ska music dazzled us song after song, and when it was over, they begged for more. (Well, not really but it soundedgood.) From the sound, and reaction of the crowd to their music, King Apparatus is sure to win over crowds everywhere. And I have to admit that seeing King Apparatus was not in my original plans for the evening, instead I was on my way to watch our hometown boys, STRANGE DAYS, wail it out at the Volcano. However, I’m glad I was disadvantaged for a ride and was able to take part in a hell of agood time with King Apparatus (not taking anything away from Strange Days, but I have seen them 4 times already). To get back to the show, lead singer Chris

you thought

we were

normal...

Murray was able to groove with the crowd with his insightful lyrics, and the rest of the band kept the upbeat tempo of the show right to the end. They moved from one songto another quickly and exhibited their endurance keeping the fast pace, and the crowd gasping for air (of course I wasn’t though). KingApparatus played largely from their recent release MarfJes as well as their self-titled debut album. Most

‘em

memorable songs were “Strong Physical Urge”, “Aesthetics”, “Liars”, “Michael and Anne” and “Buy our Stuff’, all from Marbles. From King Apporo~s they played “Death Car on the Freeway”, “Heartless” and *‘Non Stop Drinkin”‘, which if I might add was a common theme for this particular evening. Actually they probably played most songs from both albums which I surprisingly new most of. The

songs are very catchy, and the infectious beat even made those who were watching the big screen turn their heads in awe. (O.K. that’s bullshit too, but really, the songs were/ are good.) How about an excuse for the boneheads who missed out on a good show. I realize that Nirvana was playing in Toronto on this same evening, that’s a good excuse. If you went to see STRANGE DAYS at the Volcano, well that’s a good excuse too. If you just thought that the band was really geeky looking, well that’s a good point but hey, didn’t your mother ever teach you to not judge a book by its cover. (They are pretty funny looking though.) This was a great show that was enjoyed by all (well, I had a good time anyway). Next time, be sure to attend their show, and in the mean time you may want to whip out the dancing shoes, brush up on all the latest in ska dance moves (if you can bounce, hop on one foot, touch your finger to your nose, than you’re in pretty good shape), and definitely pick up their new release Marbles.

Smellslike cattle prod heaven Nirvana

Maple Leaf Gurdens, Toronto November

by Dave special

4, I993

Fisher to Imprint

Seldom is punk rock any good when the drummer seats himself a solid fifty feet away from both guitarist and bassist. So when you’ve got Nirvana’s beat-keeper Dave Grohl perched in Felix Potvin’s goal mouth and frontmen Kurt Cobain and Chris NovoseIic standing up at the Garden’s blue line, you needn’t bother holding your breath about the performance in any fashion being an intimate one. Regardless, expectations were running pretty high for the first Nirvana appearance in Toronto since Nevermindand “Smells Like Teen Spirit” smashed the musical landscape. The Seattle slouches are responsible, afterall, for placing “grunge” into our cultural lexicon. They’ve also subverted the term “alternative” with laughable contempt. This, nevertheless, seemed hopelessly lost on the audience. How else does one explain the existence of cigarette lighters by the thousands suddenly appearing during the show’s quiet parts, as with numbers like Nevermind’s “Polly?” Perhaps it’s the cattle-rock nature of hockey arenas that reduces any band, even today’s so-called ‘:alternatives,” to the same absurd levels as yesterdays bloated corporates Ii ke Journey and Foreigner. Perhaps it’s likewise understand-

And you thought

we never

stood

able as to why Cobain, everyones favourite heroin addict, so cynically mocks the ticket buyers. There he stands, the future of rock apparently, moving so slightly as to make the typical shoegazer look like a young Pete Townshend by comparison. All that space and he appears at pains to know what to do with it. And as for “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” the anthem that’s arguably the decade’s most importantground-breaking song? They didn’t play it. Couldn’t care less, Too sick, too tired. That was made all the more obvious in the show’s concluding guitar destruction scene, surely the lamest you’d ever have the

still... misfortune to witness. At least you have to admire their nerve. And should any of this give a surface impression that the show was a total throwaway, then you’d be clearly misled. It’s just that it’s difficult reconciling the band’s origins with their massive success. None of this should ever have happened, and the band look as though they’d wished it never had. The fact is, Nirvana, like most bands, should be playing their music on much smaller stages in far smaller venues. Some bands, like Metallica for instance, can make the big jump with-

out losing much in the transference. Nirvana isn’t one of those bands, It’s not as though I wasn’t head-bang ing on the odd occasion. Rather that had this show taken place in any of Toronto’s smaller concert halls, Nirvana’s performance would’ve been amazing. Because in spite of “Smells Like’s” absence, their ninety minute performance featured an astounding number of instantly recognizabte songs.“Come As You Are,” “Polly,” “Breed,” “Lithium,” “Radio Friendly Unit Shifter,““Rape Me, ” “Heart Shaped Box,” and on and on they went. They are beyond doubt songwriters of the first stripe. It’s simply that as far as the distance between Cobain and the moshers pinned against the pit barrier were concerned, it looked and sounded as though Nirvana were a thous&d miles away. Perhaps all those cigarette lighters were merely a subconscious way of reminding Nirvana of the fans adoring existence. Or else they’re trying to stick one of rocks best enduring truths right where it’s gonna hurt Kurt the most: forget your fans and you might as well forget the smack. Just ask David Crosby.

ments. The big surprise for me was seeing just how good lead singer Adamson can play the guitar. He was incredible! As he introduced the songs, it was also easy to tell that Adamson’s lyrics are almost exclusively influenced by the plight of the working man in Britain (and globally) and his hope for a more equitable life between the classes. There were no quiet moments during the show. While the band played most of the songs from the new

And so began one of the best live 1have ever seen. Big Country are back, and they are better than ever, even after a five year absence. It is concerts

three

days later as I write

this review,

and my ears are still ringing. Unexpectedly, this was the loudest concert I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been to some loud ones. As we arrived during the opening band, 700 Miles’ set, we noticed that the place was packed. I had never seen Lee’s Palace as crammed full of people as it was this night, even though it was twenty bucks to get in at the door. We

had our first pleasant surprise almost right away. Joining vocalist/guitarist Stuart Adamson, lead guitar player Bruce Watson and bass playerlbackup singer Tony Butler on stage was to be their long time drummer Mark Brezezicki. Mark left the band a while ago and didn’t record the new album, BufiIo Skinners with them. From what I understand he’s now back with the band full time. Big Country is a full unit again, the same band I grew up with. As the band came on at 10:45, the crowd went nuts. I mean absolutely nuts. The guys went into “All Go Together,” probably the best song on the new album, and certainly the heaviest. After this song, Stuart said in his thick Scottish accent “Can you understand me?” After getting an affirmative response, he welcomed the crowd to the

“Big Country sxrravaganza!” and with this the band started into “We’re nox in

Kansas.” After this song Adamson looked at Butler as if he was surprised that the crowd response was so positive and

loud. He thanked us for making them feel so welcome after being gone so long. Adamson is truly one of the nicest guys I’ve ever seen up on stage. I was slightly surprised that so much of the crowd was singing along to the songs, especially the old ones. I thought this was unheard of in a bar like Lee’s, that it was just reserved for a large stadium. While watching the band perform throughout the night, it was easy to tell that they’ve been together for over ten years. That kind of tightness and familiarity doesn’t happen overnight. It was also obvious how amazing these guys were at playing their instru-

Bufluk~Ski~nersalbum. it was great to see them play oldies from The Cmsing, the Wonderland E.P. and T/x Seer(such

as ‘Look Away,”

“Chance’ and “Wonderland’ itself.) Theabsolute highlight ofthe show came in the form of the last song before the multiple encore. At this point Adamson said “Unfortunately we’ve run out of time, but fortunately we haven’t run out of songs. Here’s something to remind you of growing II UP. Wiih this the band launched into, in my opinion, maybe the best song of all time, “In a Big Country.” The crowd went absolutely wild, dancing, singing and jumping around (I even saw a bouncer dancing.) My eardrums finally ----A A PQPPe”. In closing,

I’d like to thank

Big

Counvy for putting on one hell of a show. You guys deserve all the success you get. Good luck in the future.

To Hell With

Burgundy

Phil’s Grandsons Place

November

3, I993

To Hell With Burgundy played two rousing sets Wednesday night at Phil’s to an appreciative *..and very polite crowd. Drawing mainly from their new release, the folky Only The World, this English band played rousing versions of ” I :8 Million” as well as “Money” and “Beaches”. The highlight of the show was the Dylanesque “Honest Man” complete with some great harmonica by Karl Walsh, but alas, it’s not found on the album. To Hell With Burgundy almost has a Canadian sound to them. If you enjoy the likes of Andrew Cash, Skydiggers and The Waltons then this is a band for you. All you have to do is picture any of these bands on stage but singing with accents. My only regret was missing the first set by this amazing band. Only The World is the second release for this three piece band from Manchester England. They have been together for five years and this is their second tour of the great white north. This is definitely not (thank god) another band with the “Manchester Sound”. With a

distinctive folk sound, To Hell With Burgundy is the furthest from a shoe gazer act as you can get. They have sort of a Proclaimers meet the Waltons style of music with some Celtic and country thrown in to boot! To Hell With Burgundy consists of Karl Walsh on acoustic guitar, Kevin Metchear on bass guitar and Joanne Hensman on bass drum and percussion. All three members of the band contribute vocals to the quirky pop songs that prove to be quite catchy. Tunes to pay close attention to off the album include the

bouncy

“I Can’t

Understand

You” and the slightly Celtic “Going Under”. When talking to Joanne after the show she said that her influences are quite varied, ranging from James Taylor and Carole King all the way to The Velvet Underground and Bob Marley. The great vocal harmonizing of To Hell With Burgundy isa highlight of both their recorded material and their live sound. There is a pure quality to the music on Only The World. Kind of a stripped down unplugged sort of thing. A great band to just sit and listen to. You can catch To Hell With Burgundy November 20 at the Commercial Tavern in Maryhilt and November 22-24 at Brass Taps at the University of Guelph.

“I invited a girl home to my place. She said do you have cable? I said no, but the ropes should be strong enough.”

When you lookat a joke that way, cold and analytically, it flounders like a fish out of water and dies the death. It looks sick and twisted (which it is), and totally unfunny. Which, in the hands of joke-meister Emo Phillips, is definitely not the case. In the hands of Emo, that pathetic little joke above snuggl& itself into his friendly bosom, and his frightened little lunatic’s voice, and his to-

tally goofy, awkward and shy demeanor, and becomes quaint and very very funny. That’s because Emo himself is intrinsically funny. He looks funny, and talks funny, and somehow you know it’s not an act. Emo Phillips is the kind of guy you’d rathersee on stage, than in a bar or library, where he might just offend your personal space. But on stage, he,,doesn’t offend anybody. Even if some of the things he says might be outrageous, hey, it’s Emo Phillips, and his innocence makes his humour all the more funny. So in conclusion I’ll merely say, see Emo, and have an out of body experience. By the way, the first 10 peopte to come down to Imprint (cc 140) today and make us laugh will receive a pair of tickets to see Emo Phillips. Hurrah a contest!

One week from today is the second coming of Kim Deal’s band the Breeders, a show that will no doubt improve on the reputation that the band has earned from their recent release Lcfst Spbsh. The Breeders were originally a supergroup consisting of Tanya Donnelly from Throwing Muses (who now has her own band Belly), Kim Deal who was originally from the now de-

funct Pixies, and Josephine Wiggs from Perfect Disaster. The departure of Donnelly allowed for some nepotism, and her spot is now occupied with Kim’s twin sister Kelly. LastSplash, perhaps the Breeder’s best release to date, demonstrates that without the shackle of Black Francis and the Pixies, Deal has more than enough of her own ideas to sustain a band. The album is squidgy and soft, and you want to hug it. Jumpy melodies, weird noise things happening all over the place, and lots of originality make it one of the most listenable albums released this year, and if they can transfer any of this energy onto stage, it will be a most excellent event -

I feel very sentimental

right now.

In my very first piece of writing for this rag, I wrote “Wow. I wish I had been there.” It was in reference to “In a Field of their own, vol. I “. Recently I just picked up volume two. And once again I say, “Wow, 1wish I had been there.” Three days of peace, love and music. Aquarian exposition. Oops! Wrong festival. Easy to confuse, except that Glastonbury sounds about a million times better than the Bethel fair of 1969. Glastonbury is an ancient spiritual centre in the south of England, and

more recently has become the place where all the hippies go to hang out Every year in some farmer’s field nearby, (do they bathe naked in the lake?) there is a mammoth festival featuring some of the brightest lights on the NME’s horizon. This year’s line-up on the disk is nearly as impressive (albeit shorter) as last year’s In order as they appear on the disc, the bands are: Suede, the Auteurs, Dodgy, Eat, Adorable, Belly, The God Machine, Mega City Four, Lemonheads, Superchunk, Teenage Fanclub, The Orb, Stereo MC’s, Ultramarine, Verve, and Spiritualized. All of these great bands on one double disc package! It’s pretty amazing. The sound quality is great, and it doesn’t seem so much like a live album, in that it’s not terribly plagued with bad vocals, and endless rounds of clapping, which tended to get a little annoying on last year’s disc. The only band which I was disappointed with on the disc was Suede, whose song”My

NME has been touting heavily is represented on this disc. There is techno, represented from the highly clanceable Ultramarine, to the increasingly weird Orb, who I think will probably open on the next Grateful Dead tour. There is fast, funky rap from the Stereo MO. There is perfect shimmering pop from Dodgy, and the Auteurs, there __ - is ambiante and pleasant lethargy from Verve and Spiritualized, and grunginess from the Lemonheads. The spirit of the festival really shines through on the disc, and every band represented seems to have had just a phenomenal time. Forget the pressures of touring, this three day festival was a chance for the bands to

I do assume that they are American after reading some of the babble in the sleeve, however beyond that, your guess is as good as mine.

There’s something about the physical nature of a record, or in this case a seven-inch, that commands a degree of respect The novelty of the thing only increases when it is released independently, which explains my amazement at discovering this Toronto band has put one out. ltvvas plopped into Imprint’s hands a few weeks ago when the band came by the Bombshelter in support of Eric’s Trip, and the lead singer recognized an Imprint representative at the show. Grasshopper are the kind of barebones outfit that sound pretty much the same recorded as live . . . fabulous!

The distinctive baritone of Brad Roberts is still forefront in God Shuffled His Feet but there is something missing from this new release by The Crash Test Dummies. With God Shuffled His Feet, this Winnipeg band has totally abandoned the celtic/country/fol k sound that was found on their first effort and made up their signature sound. It turns out that this omission or change in direction is a big mistake! No longer are backing accordion or fiddle incorporated into the new songs that made The Ghosts That Haunt Me so great. It is not that God Shuffled His Feet is a horrible album it’s just that it does not have those extra little sounds that made their premier effort so unique and special. These little extras seemed to give The Ghost That Haunt Me that extra little jolt. Another criticism of this sophomore effort by The Crash Test Dummies is that they fail to utilize to full advantage the strength of back up singer Ellen Reid. She has an amazing voice that was very welcome at offsetting8rad Roberts deep baritone on the last album. The album features some great writing by Brad Roberts but that shouldn’t mean that has to do all the vocals. She’s in the group and so talented that you just have to utilize her skills more than what is present There is no ‘*Superman Song” found on this album, but that is to be expected as it would be hard to duplicate the success of the chart topping single. God Shuffled His Feet is not the

same sound that you expect from this foursome, which is a shame, but they do come close on the inspired “Afternoons & Coffee Spoons”. Other stand out tracks included the first single “MMM MMM MMM MMM” and “Here I Stand Before You” with its catchy chorus. The fun lyrics of “Swimming In Your Ocean” take a different view of sex and “Days Of The Caveman” see Ellen Reid in fine form doing back up vocals. If you enjoyed the vocals of Brad Roberts on T/X Ghost That Wount Me then you could very likely enjoy God Shuffled His feet, but don’t look for a repeat of their earlier success. The lyrics are fun and the musicianship is polished and first rate but there is definitely something missing.

Who said you can’t judge an album by its cover. 2 I had never heard of the group Counting Crows, when I stumbled upon their groovy album cover in the depths of the Imprint office. Their new album “Autumn and Everything After”, caught my eye with its poetic lyrics scrawled across the cover in fountain pen style. After surveying the list of songs, the titles sounding relatively catchy, I decided to give them a listen. Have you ever needed a tape that you could listen to when you were totally frustrated with life? This tape grabs you and screams out with intensity and style, its the kind of music that reverberates in your head hours after you’ve listened to it. The song “Mr. Jones”, has an especially captive rhythm. It describes two friends taking on our chaotic and often lonely world together. Many of the songs give an artistic, or poetic view of the world. The Crows paint a sometimes lonely, sometimes funny and nonchalant, but always energetic world picture through their bizarre lyrics. The creative energy is the most memorable sensation from this album. The reason the Counting Crows have such an addictive sound, is that the lead singer, Adam Duritz, croons with conviction, He sounds restless, energetic, and in short, he sounds as though he is reaching out to the listener. If you are looking for a musical release from midterm blues, this is the album for you.

The Cocteau Twins are a British band who named their recording stun dio after the month all their children were born in, “September Sound”. How fucking nice. “Evangeline” is the latest single from the Cocts. It features the songs “Evangeline”, “Mud and Dark”and “Summer-Blink”. When I first heard this single, I must admit I hated it. I expected some-

thing with a little more substance and a little more intensity (more like the Cranes, perhaps). Instead I heard a very weak, boring and much too held back sound. After listening to it a few times, however, I began to appreciate it I may even become a fan of this band someday. Regardless of intensity levels, some of this stuff is actually pretty good. “Summer-Blink”, particularily, is quite catchy. I even caught myself humming it the other day between classes. My first taste of the Cocteau Twins has left me largely unimpressed, yet intrigued. I may have to track down some other stuff by them. Unless you are a big fan of the band, I suggest you start your first sample of the Cocteau Twins elsewhere, instead of with this single. Oh, and by the way, on a completely irrelevant note, the disc itself looks really cool, with little pictures of animals and objects on it (see above).

BORING! BORING! BORING! BORING! BORING! BORING! BORING! BORING! BORING! That about sums up the entire album. Put it this way, there isn’t a coffee that has enough caffeine to keep you awake for an entire listening of Belinda Carlisle’s new release ReoL If this album does get any merit for radio play, you are forth warned to stay clear of your AM radio stations. Unless you are a diehard Belinda Carlisle fan (like you’d admit it if you were) I don’t suggest this be added to your music collection. To show that I’m not biased and I am keeping an open mind reviewing this atbum, I’ll have to admit something that haunts my past. Something that will clear up any questions dealing with my apparent distaste for Carlisle’s new album. Something so incredibly embarrassing, and things that not even my family knows about Yes, I will admit it.

BORING!

by Nicholas Mew special to Imprint If I told you that I was a huge Hunters and Collectors fan, and that I’ve been following their career right from day one, what would you say? Well, if I said that then I’d be lying, because even though I’ve known of them for years, I never took the time to find out what their music was like. Sure, I’d heard a few cuts here and there, and I even borrowed a CD of theirs off a friend, but nothing really knocked me over. There’s just so much out there, and H&C just weren’t very high on my list of priorities. Now, however, I wish that I had spent more time listening to them, because it seems that I’ve got a lot of catching up to do. I even had to do some research for this review, listening to prior releases to gain some comparison information, and overall this band impresses me. H&C’s latest release, Cut, is not as

dark as many of their previous releases, and it delves more deeply into orchestration and a fullness of sound, yet it maintains that hard and bitter edge to it. This is achieved mainly through the vocals of Mark Seymour, who can make a seemingly innocent phrase sound like a cry of pain that makes you want to take up arms against your family. Powerful, emotive, compelling. No track really stands apart from the rest such that one can say ‘This is the best song’, but at the same time the songs are certainly not all the same. “Grindstone” highlights the voice of Mark Seymour, and ii a solid rock song featuring counterpoint vocals. “We the People” is simple, yet appealing, with a drum beat that surfaces in other tracks on the cassette/CD. This is contrasted by the next number called “Hear No Evil”, which has a light beginning, but develops to an amazing crescendo, with a gradual diminuendo at the end. Many cuts begin with interesting rhythms and syncopation, but they all eventually turn into 414 time. One cut that students should like is called “Where Do You Go?“, and it has the best set of lyrics for idealistic students looking for jobs while hoping to keep their standards and integrity: I’d like to say damn the torpedoes I’d like to sa; hang the expense I’d like to say no to the cold hard cash would not make sense Memorize-&d repeat.

I own a copy of Belinda Carlisle’s Hemn on Earth CD. (Thanks for the Christmas present Grandma.) I like to say some nice things when reviewing a new album. I discovered (just before I dozed off) the inside cover (big discovery, I know). Anyway, if you haven’t seen recent pictures of Belinda, the inside cover is worth a glance, (or two, or an afternoon). Belinda’s looks practically melt the CD package, and you actually have to take a knife to pry open the heated case. Really, you do. Now lets get to business. If you like sappy love songs about breaking

this repetoire. Again, I’ll have to thank Granny for Carlisle’s Heaven on Earth CD, as now I can at least give you some kind of comparison. Well, there is no cornparison. I mean it is still Belinda, but on Heaven on Earth she was a little more upbeat and alive sounding. Carlisle is practically comatose on Real, which gives it that fine ability to make you snooze. If this album accidentally happens to slip into your collection and somebody notices, just say it was a birthday present or something. But really, you’ll want to stay clear of this one.

drunken debauchery that McGowan represented and translated so well into song is gone, and all that remains is a Gaelic band trying to recapture some of the energy that went with “Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah” and the misveyed sadness that was “Fairytale of New York”. The album does have its high points. The opener, “Tuesday Morning” is a very pretty song, and the rambling “Drunken Boat” is worthy of the name Pogues, but the rest of the album completely lacks the drinkin’, fightin’ lrishness that the Pogues faked so well. You can’t but help but wonder if they would have done better with Joe

Strummer, who sang the lead vocals on last year’s tour. It’s not that Spider Stacy does a bad job, but he lacks the charisma that a band leader needs in order to make the band appealing. Many of the songs seem like shadows of former songs. “Girl from the Wadi Hammamat” (don’t ask me) is a faint “Turkish Song of the Damned”, and the musical bridges in “Modern World” echo the same Middle East influence, but it’s just a shade of the former greatness the band once possessed. (“Modern World” is a bit of a weird song, since it also sounds a little like the Jam song of the same name.) MichaelBrook is perhaps to blame for a lot of the problems. His muffled producing does nothing to transfer any energy the band might have had. The aforementioned “Girl from Wadi Hammamat” could easily be a great song live, but on CD, it’s flat and tasteless. Hopefully this will just be a oneoff album, and Shane can pull himself out of whatever sewer he’s drinking in and get it together enough to make some more music. The original Pogues never released a shitty album, and it would be sad to think that Waiting for Herb is the beninning of a trend counter to that.

Some of us will be fortunate enough to encounter another individual who, through coming to know and share with that person, widens within us an understanding not only of ourselves, but of the human condition. The connection that transcends the stereotypes and prejudices of daily social interaction and reaches the level of inviolable truth, a truth within and among us. This beautiful affinity has inspired many powerful works of art, among them Serge Bennathan’s Ghronic/es of a Simple Life, which was performed by Dancemakers last Friday, at the Humanities Theatre. Dancemakers is a Toronto based company comprised of eight dancers, one of whom, Julia Aplin, is a graduate from the University of Waterloo Dance Department. Dancemakers also performed guest choreographer Yvonne Coutts’ innovative piece Bluck on BIock as the evening’s opener. Black on Black was a non-narrative study of the relationship between people and the space around them. It was inspired by the painter Mark Rothko and the poet e e Cummings, both ofwhom experimented with new spatial and formal relationships in their respective art forms. In this spirit, Coutts used the eight dancers to transform the stark stage into fluid spatial configurations. The costumes were black, the stage was black; hence the title. Perhaps the most striking feature of the performance was its silence. Black on Block demanded a great degree of synergy among the dancers, as they retied on each other and the stage environment for their sense of timing. And their sense of timing was extraordinary, particularly during some of the more kinetic stunts which required split second reactions. The absence of music also allowed aural contrasts to be perceived between the stomps and slaps of the movement and the quiet of motiont essness. The performance fu tly engaged the senses. In one sequence, the dancers performed a series of jumps, but before any of the dancers jumped on his own,

Daniel Day-Lewis is a pretty good actor. Michelle Pfeiffer is pretty and a good actor, while Winona Ryder, well she’s just the pretty American schtiolgirl from Mermaids. Other than Winona, this film seems to have it afl - great actors, a generous budget, and director Martin Scorcese. The story was adapted from Edith Wharton’s novel “The Age of lnnocence,” The setting is upperclass New York in the I87Os, with all the glitter, intrigue,gossip and closed-mindedness of the Victorian Age. People go to balls, dinners and picnics, and have not much to do and even less to say to each other. Newland Archer (Day-Lewis), a wealthy lawyer is engaged to young, innocent and obedient May (Ryder), when he meets Countess Olenska (Pfeiffer) who captures his heart and imagination. Olenska has recently returned from Europe where she left her husband whom she wants to divorce. New York society is shocked and the Countess never quite does fit in. For a while Archer tries to deny his

ingona”normal”conversation. White they “chatted,” three of the female dancers appeared and rushed back and forth between upstage and downstage in a sort of showy Richard Simmons workout, complete with silly conversation. “I’m too old for this,” they complain, “Whoop, whoop, whoop!” I found out later from a discussion with one of the dancers that many of these more comical segments were improvised. Serge Bennathan highly values the individuality expression of the dancers, and provides them with ample room for personal interpretation. They were all united in theatrical time, within which they were free to explore a certain amount of personal time. This is the kind of rare collaborative understanding between dancers and choreographer that maximizes the energy at hand. Every performance is in some way fresh and unique to both the performers and the spectators. It is also extremely appropriate to the universal/individual nature of the dance itself. The score for Chronicles was created by Vancouver composer Arne Eigenfetdt for small orchestra, but a taped recording was heard Friday night The music and dance matched each other well, the result of a close collaboration between choreographer and composer. For the most part the music had a strong classical character and strings were predominant, but into this traces of contemporary influences were integrated, giving it a more timeless quality. The performance prompted me to look to my own experiences and memories, to personalize the kinds of humanistic relationships and experiences presented onstage. Many people who are unacquainted with Modern Dance are often uncomfortable watching it because they don’t think they’ll “get it” But for the most part Modern Dance is not about figuring out a mimed story literally. Chronic/es ofu Simple Life was a celebration of life and humanity. There is much diversity in society, just as there is within each of its individuals, but what we share far exceeds our differences. As Serge Bennathan said, “You have to love and cherish, to enrich yourself, to become what we think should be a human being.” If you could sense this love of humanity from the stage, then you were actually in the dance yourself.

Age of Innocence

dir. by Martin

by Kat Imprint

he was assisted by another dancer. This strong sense of unity and support characterized the dance, and became an important quality in the second performance of the evening, Wlronicles of a Simpk Life. At one level Chronicles commemorated the life of a close friend of the choreographer who died recently from AIDS; at another it revealed and revelfed in humanistic love without discrimination. The dance unfolded with the random connectedness of memory, blurring time and layering imagery in vignettes that disclosed universalities of life. The performance began with two male dancers: Gerry Trentham stood motionless at centre stage in his underwear white Garry Tai walked around him barefoot, Tai’s steps quickened, accelerating into leaps around Trentham which suggested the passage of time. Eventually Tai stopped, at which point Trentham presented a gesturat sequence of emotions which also were repeated faster and faster. This scene implied a correspondence between the cyclic nature of emotions across one’s life, while it also introduced the bond of friendship between the two dancers. The ambiguous appearance of the nearly naked Trentham cleverly prompted contrasting images of innocent infant, sexual adult, and self sacrificing Christ. Here and throughout the dance associations could be made both within and beyond the moFtatity of an individual. Chronicles was not about the differences among people, but about their commonalities. By exchanging stereotypes freely among the performers, they became neutralized. In one vignette Trentham and Tai’s dancing could be read as flirtatiously sexual or childishly playful. Their lifts and embraces were provocative yet pure; they transcended sexual stereotype. I found it commendable that sexual issues between two mates could be dealt with in a way that was ultimately asexual in nature. The ethnic and age differences between the two performers nullified

and

later

confused

about what to do, and finally after Olenska tells him that he must do something, he does nothing and marries May. Was there ever such a wimp

onscreen? Was there ever a film that dragged this much? The boredom and uselessness of the upper class is depicted admirably, but after half an hour you get the message. Two and a half hours is, well, too long+ Nothing ever happens+ except for some passionate and tragic looks and sighs between Archer and Olenska. There is a scene where 0 ten&a is at the beat h at sunset Archer is sent to look for her (he never does anything on his own account) and decides that he will speak to her if she turns to him before a ship on the horizon passes a certain mark. Atright, she doesn’t turn and he leaves it at that (at this point the whole cinema started laughing, because the tragic

moment

was

just

too

sappy).

Later, when Archer tells Olenska of this incidence, she replies that she knew he was there and waited for him to speak. I guess the woman is not just a rebel but a rebel with a sixth sense. (Or maybe he smelled bad...)

There is one good scene. In this film, the lovers keep their clothes on. During a carriage ride Archer makes love to 01&&a’s hand by carefully removing her silken glove and touching her skin with his lips. Sizzling, were it not so hard to reconcile Archer’s wimpy character with this’ sexy guy. May also provides too many contradictions. Most of the time she is a mindless, naive, obedient child, but she suddenly shows too much insight when she tells Archer to either break off the engagement or to stop seeingolenska. Everything about this film is too slow and boring, and the characters are too rich, stupid and schizophrenic to evoke any sort of compassion (except maybe Olenska). If they were just complete stereotypes, if they had just cut the last two hours or so of the film. if+ if... Society seems to always have been unreal, uptight and full of double standards and very boring people. Accept that and then you don’t have to waste your time or your money on this film.
