Governors .

If you have any hopes of avoiding the $100 tuition fee increase next year, don’t hold your breath for the UW Board of Governors to help. The chevron interviewed several members of the board, which makes all the final decisions on university matters and must approve the tuition increase, and the responses were not encouraging. Carl Pollock, university chancellor and Electrohome magnate, said

may approve

he had not heard about the increase because he was out of town on business. He added that he would be leaving town (again on business), and wouldn’t have a chance to look into it “until sometime next week”. D. Peter Allison, past president of the UW Alumni Association and manager of engineering for Sutherland-Shultz Ltd., said he didn’t want to make a statement because he hadn’t yet studied the

matter. One of the staff representatives on the board, A.E. Lappin. said: “Based on the information that I’ve read, it is justified. “There are limits on the province’s ability to fund universities.” He stated that the percentage fees contribute towards the cost of education has to be in keeping with other costs. History Prof. K.R. Davis told

fee hike

the chevron: “I don’t hold to the philosophy of free education.” He thought the $100 increase was needed to “redress the decline in the percentage of education costs borne by students”, but that he wouldn’t like to see it rise every year. “It is alright as long as it’s not the start of something bigger,” he said. He postulated that if students have “some small direct involvement” in financing their education, they appreciate it more. Tom Brzustowski, the viceacademic, president commented: “It might have been a lot worse.” He couldn’t see much choice about passing on the increase to students. “The university can’t afford not to.” He pointed to “the increase in OSAP money” as a possible way that students could handle the increase. In a feature appearing in last Friday’s paper the chevron cutbacks bureau presented an analysis of Harry Parrott’s fee in-

crease announcement. They note that grants to universities will increase by eight percent next year, while inflation is predicted at only six percent. Thus, if programmes are maintained at their present levels, no fee increase will be needed. Responding to Parrott’s statement that the portion of education costs paid by tuition has declined to 14.4 percent from 17 percent in 1972, they point out that students get less for their money now. The ratio of students to faculty, for example, has increased to 20 to one from 15 to one in 1970. Also there are more lectures and larger classes as opposed to seminars and labs. They show that any increased costs are due solely to inflation because the level of operations at UW has actually been cut back since 1971, and there has been no new construction. They show that students are not the cause of inflation and ask why they should be the victims.

placed students from last term still without work? The directors say there might be a few, but concluded they have probably opted for a free term. Though some students have claimed many of the jobs to be of poor quality (mostly first year), the statistics show a different story. In a survey covering all co-op students (70 percent response) only 2.3 percent felt it was a waste of time while 11 percent felt it was of minor value. Of the few complaints Len Trembley was aware of as engineering AADUS rep., the biggest was that “the job description didn’t match the job they got.” King feels it is “not always the

student’s fault if unempioyed after interviews” since some companies renege on job agreements. Though he believes co-op can’t punish the employer, he says there should be some way of warning students about companies who have defaulted before. UW has the second highest coop enrollment in North America. It involves all faculties on campus with engineering and architecture totally co-op. The English department has just finished its first coop term, with 12 students participating. There remain potential areas of expansion of the system but change takes years of studies, support and budget approvals.

Most are placed

Some Co-op job placements are down from previous years, but the majority of students have placements for the winter term. Approximately 97 percent of the co-op students entering winter work term have been placed, according to associate director of co-op job placement Bruce McCallum and Jim Wilson. There are 5,800 co-op students at UW, half of them off campus each term. This term about 125 still do not have jobs. This group is comprised of approximately 100 engineering students, 20 kinesiology students, 12 architecture students and nine math students. The number of those unemployed will not necessarily persist, however, for the co-op coordinators will continue tot place students throughout the term. Those unplaced usually find a job for themselves says Engsoc A president Peter King. Very few change stream and take a double work term due to -finances and heavy workload.

looking From the inception of the co-op program and up to 1974, the system ensured 100 percent placement. In 1975-76 “things started to hit hard,” McCallum remarked. Work opportunities come and go with the economic cycle. The government’s wage and price controls and the AIB are deterents to company hiring, he explained. Since UW pioneered the system in 1957, 1,200 institutions in North America - 17 in Canada - now claim to be co-op. “Growth has been somewhat limited due to competition,” said Willson. “We’re all knocking on the same doors.” Competition for jobs among students can be fierce. King, who feels most engineers are satisfied with the co-op system at UW, also believes the state of the economy is the cause for increased competition for the better jobs. First year students are the hardest hit. Essentially companies are more reluctant to hire these students,-given the cost of on-the-

.job training and lower level of skills offered, King explained. The work that they do get tends to be of lower quality and relevance to their course. Co-op operates 0.n an interview system between prospected workers and employers. Students who are prompt, eager and know something about the firm tend to beat out the others, say the associate directors. Those who don’t get ajob in one work term, however, ask themselves what they did wrong, and- use their experience for a better chance the next time. Students in co-op are also permitted to find a job for themselv’es - mostly at the beginning of term. Jobs so obtained must be cleared through their co-ordinator. Those who remain unplaced can opt to switch stream, which may be done once but is not advised. Other options are to clear their own job or take one free term and get odd jobs or travel. Are any of the “handful” of un-

Staff -_ poke holes in referendum \

Federation executives and chevron staff squared off in a heated debate on the student newspaper referendum Tuesday noon in the Campus Center great hall. The chevron staff, maintaining its demand for reinstatement and investigation outlined a number of irregularities, contradictions and ambiguities in the federationsponsored referendum. Chevron staffer Toni Cody, outthe referendum. raged by stated that it was impossible for anyone to fill out the referendum in support.‘of the chevron demand?? “If you’re -a democrat, how do you fill this thing in‘?” demanded no investigation Cody. “There’s and there’s no way we can get reinstatement on this.” Chevron prodrlc-tion manager Neil Docherty, q(liJzed acting federation president Dave McLellan on why different questions on the referendum contradicted one anot her. Dot herty pointed speci fitally to questions two and three. Question two deals with Canadian University’ Press (CUP) membership. CUP principles state clearly that student’ councils should not have editorial control over the newspaper. Students “could condeivably fill it (Question no. 3) in to give the student government editorial control. They could have previously filled in that they wan&d to be members of CUP. 1s that not a contradiction’?” Dot herty asked.

’ McLellan replied that it would be a matter of interpretation and in that case the CUP question would probably take precedence over the other question “because it (the question on CUP) is more specific in nature. One is yes or no, the other is just a preference.”

Who owns “Canada was the largest borrower in International markets in 1976.. .” So read a Canadian Press wire story in the Business section of the Globe and Mail l&t Saturday. And there is a lot of borrowing going on: “ . . .international lending continued at a record, pace in 1976,” according to a Morgan Guaranty Trust Co. report, and Canada snaffled 16 percent of the available funds on the world market. In publicly announced new international bond issues and medium term Eurocurrency credits Canada borrowed $9.16 billion last year - double the $4.6 1 billion borrowed in 1975. CP reported that Canada’s current account deficit reached $5 billion in 1975, and is near that figure now. According to the article

Docherty complained that new rules were being made for the referendum. It was not outlined from the beginning that specific questions woutd be given precedence, Docherty stated. Ernst von Bezold, also a chevron staffer, called on McLellan to explain why he had obtained a legal writ of summons td evict chevron staffers from the office before the referendum revealed students’ opinion on the paper. McLellan replied that, “In the event that the students decide to have no reinstatement. it would be perfectly clear that people don’t support the free chevron position. So 1 started procedure, a writ of possession. to take back the chevron office when the referendum is over, if that’s what the way the st(ldenth decide. If not, it’s possible to stop this action.” One of the last students to speak about the referendum also pointed out that the referendum was biased towards the federation, “After-all. who wrote it,up?” he argued. He stressed that he did support a referendum but one that

The major portion of Engsoc B’s first council meeting on Tuesday dealt -with a discussion of the re: -ferendum. Free chevron staffer Tom Cody was allowed to address the council, explaining the free chevron’s case in general and on the referendum in particular. Cody emphasized the paper’s posiiion of Reinstate! Investigate! and explained why he felt the referendum questions are stacked in favour of the federation. Cody explained there is no mention of investigation and also tried to explain how a person in favour of the position of reinstatement only would be faced with an al-

most impossible task when trying to fill it out because of conflicts between questions. Cody invited council members to try and fill out the referendum form after the meeting was over, as if they wanted a reinstatement, and he would show how this is next to impossible. No one took up his offer. In the meantime Manny Brykmann, Engineering rep to federation council arrived and spoke to council, stating that engineers should vote on the referendum. He also claimed that the free chevron kicked out the president with no evidence to batk his claim. The discussion continued with

Canada? Morgan doesn’t have figures tot the total 1976 debt, but it is likely to be greater than fkg $34.7 billion which was outstanding in 1975. (That figure excludes short term non-bank trade credit liabilities.) And to put the debt in perspective, it is pointed out that Canada now has a greater external debt, in ‘relation to its gross national product - the value of the goods and Services produced -than Britain. The 1975 figure represented 20 percent of the GNP and 89 percent of its exports. Next to Canada it was reported that Brazil was the heaviest borrower in 1976, with loans of $3.42 billion, up 37-per cent from 1975. Morgan attributed the record world lending to‘ “huge and persistent current account deficits of many countries.” -neil

Engsoc A president Peter King presenting a brief history of the past events and comments regarding the three page memo to undergrad engineering students, outlining what he and Engsoc B president Aivars L. Kakis felt were the best answers to the referendum. Although this memo was distributed in the engineering building, King stated: “This isn’t meant to sway your vote.” He expressed the sentiment that enough has gone on and that the referendum will finally solve it all. Cody, on the other hand,) insists I- the opposite is true because the referendum would be hard to imple‘merit, adding that expediency does not justify this referendum’s presence. Although King admits that the referendum is “slightly slanted”, the executives of Engsoc A and B have taken a stand that their suggested responses to the referendum take in the best interests of the students. Cody maintains that purposely slanting a referendum serves no one except those who put on the show, namely the federation itself. In other busine%, reports from the varidus committees in Engsoc B revealed plans for the future. Engineering students can look forward to a winter carnival scheduled for the firit week in February, including sue h events as a volly tournament, nurses and engineers greaser pub, skiing trip to Blue Mountain, snow bowl, sleigh rides, ice sculpturing and a scavenger hunt. Other events later in the term include a semi-formal, bus push for charity a’nd toboggan races. Mention was also made that the incentive for class participation in these events will be eight cases of beer for the most active class. For the musically inclined engineers, there is a plea for people to come and join the Engsoc band. Engineers also will get to vote between two candidates today for the position of Engsoc treasurer. -ro

China Week This year’s China Week offers much to those trying to understand what is going on in China. The Chinese Students Association (CSA) made its plans for the week of January 17-22 in a January 2 executive meeting. The chief guest speaker will be William Hinton, who will speak January 21 on recent developments in China. Hinton is the author of many books on China, including the internationally acclaimed Fanshen, and The 100 Day War. He raised his daughter Carmelita in China. She took an active role as a Red Guard in the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution which struck down the Confucianist line of thought. This line advocated the solidification of a reactionary bureaucratic leadership which, if successful, would have halted the progress of the revolution. L Sammy Chan, uw csa president, will be editor of a special edition of Ta Lu, the Waterloo. CSA newsmagazine. The special edition will include many features on China’s agricultural, military and-scientific developments. In addition, there will be many films soreened that week, mcluding “bright Sunlight in Laser” on January 16, and “Pioneers” on January 20. -

leaves his post at the end of this month. Ram said in an interview Wednesday: “-I decided a long time ago, about two years, that I wasn’t going to make it a permanent job. I’ve been with the pub since it was started on a daily basis in 1974.” _ The Federation has decided the positions will not be filled. Instead the bartenders and pub employee Rita Schneider will do the work that Ram and Chamovit,z were doing, with Schneider becoming the person in charge. Doug Thompson, chairperson of the Pub Committee said that there will be “more of the bookwork done in the Fed Offices.” Peter Yate?, federation business manager, stated that the decision not to have the jobs filled is because the federation is investigating’ways to pare down the cost of running the pub. According to Yates: “Fifty thousand dollard currently goes into the pub, we hope to cut it down to $35,000.” Ram said: “The move is designed to streamline the operation. Currently the pub is running slightly in the hole, but by the end of the month they’ll be operating in the black.” Ram felt that getting rid of both positions might be a bit too much, but added he is pleased with the job that he and the other employees had done in getting the pub in working order. .Yates said that there was no guarantee that t.he idea would work: “We don’t know if this will work, we may have to hire another person. We’re just trying this out.” -doug

-photo by jonathan coles An orange and a glass of juice a day for 79 days now, and a he// of a lot of people who support him, is the story of this man, the president of the Union of Injured Workers (Kitchener chapter). The hunger strike is to point out the conditions that injured workers face, the treatment they receive from the government and from the Workmen’s Compensation Board, a board that treats injured workers “like trash”, a board that visits certain members and interrogates them; a board that visits each persons’ neighbours to investigate the situation and on top of that awards certain people who are disabled as little as 72 dollars a month in some cases. Erhard Kienitz is a principled man who went’on this hunger strike to point out the conditions that injured workers face. “This struggle is not my own, my personal case. It is the case of al/ injured workers I am fighting,” he kept repeating. “There are workers who are frustrated. . .they are ready to bomb the CB.. .I want to prevent this.” Last week Kienitz traveled to Queen’s Park to meet with labour minister Bette Stephenson. He was accompanied by two members - from Chatham and Windsor. The group proposed that the government stop harassment of Canadian and immigrant injured workers, and that every injured worker receive the report that the doctor sends to the WCB.

PSI doesn’t Psi Mind Development Institute Ltd. recently lost $175 to UW student Ciaran O’donnell, who took Psi to court in a move to force them to honour their -guarantee. Psi offers a four day course in mind development studies at a cost of $175. It claims to have educated thousands of people in the Toronto-London-Hamilton area in mind to mind communication. Two math students at UW, Trevor Thompson and Ciaran O’donnelj, enrolled in the course with the understanding that if they were not satisfied with the course they could get a refund of their fees. Psi’s brochure gives the following guarantee: “Psi Mind Development Institute Ltd. guarantees that unless you have experienced mind to mind communication at the Altered State of Con-

Those who think Mathsoc doesn’t spend any time on important issues were proved wrong Tuesday when Mathsoc devoted six motions to the application of ‘ ‘a place for everything, everything in its place” to the desk drawers of the Mathsoc office. After valiant opposition by “Mr. Everything” , JJ Long, the question was decided, and the oldtimers suffered a crushing 7-2-2 defeat. Two minor issues were given the short shrift they deserved. The first of these issues was the referendum. Long proposed that Mathsoc officially endorse the referendum. After mathNews editor Mike, Dillon pointed out that this would be taking a stand against the Chevron, the councillors proceeded to vote 5-3-3 in favour of the motion. With the exception of the mover, those voting in favour of the motion were all co-op students who had been out on work term last term. One of those voting in favour of the motion prefaced her vote by saying that “we should find out about the issues” before urging mathies to act in any specific way. The other minor issue was Antical. First, Long proposed a motion temporarily suspending funding for Antical. This term’s budget for Antical

They then took Psi to small claims court in an attempt to obtain a refund. When Thompson’s case came up last November, the judge decided in favour of Psi, although he felt the contract Thompson signed with Psi was deliberately misleading. The contract specified that the guarantee did not apply to those people who finished “the formal tutorials or classes”. Psi claimed that Thompson had dropped out of

tion in that leaves him facing an assault charge filed against him by chevron news editor Henry Hess. And Thompson was editor of the “bullseye” which pushed Roberts position and slandered all those who opposed his actions. Thompson is also the author of a letter to “the real chevron” Dee 3 which opposed the free chevron and Roberts’ recall, arid said: “To recall the president now would be to recall democracy. ” Another of the reformers, Lee, was ahead of all of his contemporaries in their attacks on the paper. As early as April 12 he brought a motion to council to decontinued on page 9

the course after the “formal” classes were over, although the agenda he received showed that the course was to continue after he had dropped out. However, when O’donnell’s case came up, the judge decided in his favour. He said the original decision (in Thompson’s case) was wrong, but that there was nothing he could do about it. The court then ordered Psi to pay O’donnell his $175 fee plus court costs within one month. Last week O’donnell still hadn’t received any repayment from Psi, so he went to small claims court and arranged to have the judgment executed. He said the court would probably seize property from Psi and that he expected some sort of action this week. -peter

includes $500 from Mathsoc and $300 or $400 from the board of education. Long pointed out that the quality of Antical was reaching an unprecedented low; and it .was getting to the point where serious questions abobt its utility to mathies were being raised.’ This motion failed 2-4-5. Then Kevin Willis told council that Gary Dryden, the person responsible for the last Antical, who resigned under fire last term as math/engineering fieldworker, had suggested that a position of Antical Coordinator be created and that he be hired to fill this position. Willis suggested that a three ’ person committee be formed to draw up an appropriate job description for this. A motion to this effect passed 7-2-2 after two friendly amendments which canceled each other out had been made. The only other noteworthy item on the agenda was the Toronto and Ottawa pubs which were said to be suffering from asymptotic size of about fifteen people. After about 1.25 hours of Al quality debate, the meeting ended. -mart

led\for reinstatement of the chevron, but they were hesitant about an investigation of the entire affair. Math councillor Ron Hipfner, a CRG member, went to the 39th CUP conference in Vancouver, where he informed delegates of its support for reinstatement. The CRG has since changed its stand and now calls for ‘an investigation of the chevron-federation dispute without reinstatement. At the council meeting on Thursday, Hipfner said the CRG was no longer calling for reinstatement because of the chevron’s conduct at the CUP conference. The CRG’s new position was born out by one of the Rorrisonl Thompson mot ions. The motion called for the suspension of the chev_ron’s by-laws until an election of an editor by the students at large. The motion would effectively eliminate the Board of Publications and would seem to be beyond the powers of students’ council. Last week’s council meeting included a report from acting president Dave McLellan aknowledgihg the recall of former president Shane Roberts: “The recall of Shane Roberts came into effect on December 28, 1976. Although the petition was short 2 names of the required 2,141, the recall wasdeemed to be in effect because the organizers of the petition were not notified of the inaccuracy within 72 hours of submission.” The report also states that McLellan will not run in the upcoming by-election for the position of president. Also on the agenda was a report from the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) which calls for reinstatement of the chevron as it was prior to September 24, 1976. The next council meeting is scheduled for Sunday. -val moghadam -peter blunden

Sellers better and better

‘<a . 1

‘The cat in the hat is back ’ The Pink Panther has struck again, and there’s no reason to believe that it’s the last time. This panther is indeed pinker than any of the others, but, for the first time it has nothing to do with that priceless diamond from the first movie of the same name: “The Pink Pant her’ ’ . The other Inspector Clouseau films were “A Shot in the Dark” “The Return of the Pink and Panther” (1963, 1964 and 1975, I believe). There ‘was one called simply “Inspector Clouseau” which apparentlybombed, and should have. The film had Alan Arkin instead of Peter Sellers, and was not directed by Blake Edwards who did all the others. (I don’t remember how good it was - I was nine when I saw it and I liked it then, but then I also liked peanutbutter and salami sandwiches .) But I digress.

‘t’s another remake

31d ‘star’ fades Here’s another movie to add to ir long list of remakes and seeels: “A Star Is Born”. This verIn sports Kris Kristofferson as e fading, washed-up, alcoholic jck) star and Barbara Streisand the star he gives birth to. The fading star is John Norman award. He has been destroyed by e drugs and alcohol needed to ep him going in the show-biz Brld. He has nothing left but conmpt for himself and his fans. John “discovers” Esther Hoffan singing in a little joint after one his fiascos. The usual series of bisodes throws them together, ey fall in love and get married. sther keeps doing better, and Ihn sinks deeper and deeper into jlivion. Et cetera. The movie begins promisingly ith a glimpse of the relationship :tween John and his “fans”. here are rocky roads ahead ough, for the film as well as for Ihn. Kristofferson’s portrayal of ihn’s character is sketchy and cks feeling. One never sympathes with him enough, nor really els much of anything in most of e ‘“good” scenes. What is there is st enough to carry the movie ong , barely .Streisand has a different probm: she sings beautifully and her ting is superb, but there is no real ridence that Esther actually loves bhn. Most of the time she seems different to him. When she says ie loves him, we only have her ord for it. She is too self-reliant to ‘ally care for him. (I suspect that, :ep down, for some’reason Baru-a Streisand is disgusted by Kris ristofferson, and the block is too g to hurdle for a silly little movie.)

There are some splendid scenes, most of which are brought off by Streisand alone. There is no consistency or regularity, however. Bad scenes keep ruining the good ones, and there is a whole section of the movie on a ranch which is so cliche-ridden (old and new cliches alike) that it’s nauseating. Whether the good parts outweigh the bad is a matter of personal opinion and taste (or lack of it). Perhaps the songs make it worthwhile. Several times the combination of Streisand, the song and the photography made a sequence near perfect. (Most of the lyrics were written by Paul Williams, who was so brilliant in “Phantom of the Paradise” .) The major tlaw with the film was the script. It consisted entirely of smart’ snappy, cynical ‘thirties dialogue. Although it worked in some of the scenes, it stood in the way of any tenderness or compassion coming through over the screen. Question: Did Kris Kristofferson sing badly on purpose, or is he really like that? (* * l/2 - Lyric Theatre) “The Tenant” is this week’s Fed Flick showing tonight through Sunday in AL 116 at 8:00 for $1 a head. It’s about a mild-mannered man (Roman Polanski not Clarke Kent) who becomes possessed by the suicide who was the previous tenant in his new apartment. There are good moments, and most of the film is interesting in a bizarre (one could say perverse) way, but the-ending is contrived, and the movie ultimately is a big disappointment after the stunning success of “Chinatown”.

This new movie, “The Pink Panther Strikes Again”, has (again) Peter Sellers in it (hooray !) and is directed by Blake Edwards. Her-

bert Lum (again) plays the now crazed Chief Inspector Dreyfuss \ (boo, hiss!). The plot is simple: Dreyfuss escapes from’the insane asylum he has been in for the past three years as a result of his behaviour in “Return”. He gathers together some of the world’s top criminals in order to carry out his fiendish plan: a scheme to murder Inspector Jacques Clouseau. -The result is hysterical. The story itself is all but irrelevant; it is the way Sellers works and the way the sight gags are constructed that makes the film almost one long, sustained laugh. Most of it is slapstick. The jokes are not very subtle, and we can see them coming miles away, but they are funny regardless because of the timing, finesse and sheer absurdity of- them. The film classy as which was mysteries. “Clouseau”

is not anywhere near as “A Shot in the Dark” more a spoof of murder The motives for making films has changed

slightly though. Now the intention is merely to provide a framework for the king of gags the “Clouseau” audience has come to expect (though there is nothing dishonourable in that). Hell, if you want .class, go to the Riviera. In passing, I should mention that the ultimate Sellers is not found in Clouseau but in the satire “Dr. Strangelove” (It’s also a sneaky way to put a plug in for my favourite director). In “Strangelove” Sellers played three completely different characters each of whom tried at some point to save Humanity from a dreadful “Doomsday device”. Each caricature was both pricelessly funny yet ,in its own bizarre way believable - an astonishing achievement. Anyway, if you still don’t know what a Pink Panther movie is like, nothing I can say more will tell you. If you have a spare evening, want to clear your brain and have a good time, go seeit! (There’s even a Pink Panther cartoon thrown in for free-* * *Waterloo Theatre) -oscar

‘Enforcer’ promotes hysteria The Enforcer is just another cop film and Clint Eastwood once again portrays Inspector Harry Callaghan. This particular show looks at the San Francisco Police Department and its response to a’group of terrorists called the Peoples Revolutionary Strike Force, a bunch of cartoon-characters led by a homicidal maniac. There is no one to take seriously in this movie and hence you can’t take the movie seriously. It’s a cynical cut-up of municipal politicians, police departments, feminists, revolutionaries, black nationalists. All-in-all the movie leaves a bad ta%te in your mouth’. Even Clint Eastwood has lost some of the wry humour that had made his man-with-no-name characterizations appealing. Really though, there’s nothing to smile about in the San Francisco portrayed in the movie for it’s a vicious place peopled by unpleasant characters. No one cooperates with Eastwood and he even has to back a priest against the wall at gunpoint to get him to talk. Violence, violence and more violence - if yougo in for that sort of thing. Th,e terrorists needlessly kill everyone they encounter during the execution of their plans and Eastwood too, doesn’t hesitate when given a chance to use his little instrument of death. Actually, we are supposed to condone his furi-

ous quest for justice, since the terrorists themselves are such a murderous group, having killed among many others, two of Callaghan’s partners. But it doesn’t really matter what we think though since the characters and situations of the movie are so hyped-up that you can’t honestly apply them to any current social situation. The movie simply promotes a lot of hysteria in the people who watch it and believe what they are seeing. The filmmaking itself is thoroughly competern t.hough not spectacular. It’s the kind of work you’d expect to see on a TV cop show, but with more money behind it. There is no imagery or symbolism to speak of but the action comes across smoothly. Unfortu-

nately, there are no unique action sequences, not even a car chase, but just a lot of running, blasting, shooting and stabbing. The most extended piece of action is a rooftop’ chase - a terrible waste of those fantastic San Francisco streets. One part-redeeming feature of the movie, is its effectiveness in imparting to the audience a sense of the pressures a cop is under in a sudden confrontation. Apart from this, though there’s no point in seeing The Enforcer. It’s unpleasant, not entertaining; and you don’t even come away with a useful moral lesson. It’s simply an exercise in modern urban-American paranoia. -jim

Rehash on the make Take a look outside your window towards the down town area and ask yourself if every conceivable possibility open to mankind has been used up. It sometimes seems that way. Now look at this page. “The Pink Panther Strikes Again” and again and again. More lawlessness in the name of the law - and more guts -from Dirty Harry in “The Enforcer”. Three unaborted lilmings of “A Star Is Born”. Last week there was “King Kong” touted as an original remake which is contradictory at best. Then there’s “The Seven-Percent Solution” the latest in a protracted list of Sherlock Holmes movies. What is to be learned from all this is just this. Producers are willing to take a gamble: Movies today are an art form, not a cold hearted business. The public always gets what it wants. So, not to worry. There’s plenty of new stuff coming out so why don’t you go down town and take in a movie in the area -say maybe “Carry On England”. -randv

The economic crisis does not affect all the people in Canada equally. Workers are being laid off in increasing numbers, and many students are being forced to drop out of university for fmancial reasons, *whereas the rich are buying more luxury cars than they did last year (ie., 1975). According to the Dec. 6 issue of Financial Times, the total car registrations in Canada rose 4.5 per cent in the first nine months of 1976, but the sales of the luxury Cadillac Seville went up 84 per cent. DThe portion of new car sales accounted for by imports declined to 14 from 16 per cent in 1976, while sales of luxury imports increased substantially, as shown in the table: ,

Good sales were also reported for Aston-Martin ($37,500), the ;\ Turbo Porsche ($38,500), the Porsche 911s ($19,500 to $25,000), and the Ferrari ($29,300 to $33,800). According to John Mackie, vice-president of British Leyland Motors of Canada: “A corporate president. . . may be laying off people in his plant but he’s pretty much unaffected himself by a recession.” It is bitter irony that the rich are living in increasing opulence at a time when students are facing a tuition increase of $100 which many can ill afford. It’s something to think about the next time you try to hitchhike home. Bet nobody in a Rolls-Royce gives you a lift. -doug

quality of the participating teams, the Tenth Annual Athena Invitational should be the best ever held. The Athenas have been playing well this season and have a record of 4 wins and 2 losses after defeating Windsor last Friday. Yoe Sang and Jenny Banks have been playing exceptionally well for Pat Davis’ team in recent matches. Last night the Warriors Volleyball team hosted the defending -0.U.A.A. champions, the Western Mustangs. Both the Athenas and the Warriors are working very hard at their games. They are bolstered by the anticipation of playing before their home crowd in the Canadian University Championships which will be- held on the UW campus from February 24-27. The Warriors receive an automatic berth into the CIAU Championship as host team entry while the Athenas must win their way into the CWIAU championship tournament. Athena action this weekend starts 1:OO pm today and 9:30 Saturday. -

CSA rapsi racism ’ I In regard to the front page photo of The Real Chevron (Vol. 1, No. 5, January 1977). We consider the naming of the mouse as Mouse Tse-tung an irresponsible and ignorant act. It is the greatest insult to the late Chairman Mao Tse-tung and the Chinese people. This is not the first appearance of such articles on campus. An article “Getting it up for Mm”, printed on the front page of Bullseye (Vol. 1, No. 3, Thursday, October 28, 1976) says: “A series of sex manuals, complete with quotes from the works of Mao, is selling like hot cakes in red China. . . .As a deterrent (to masturbation), young people are urged to devote full attention to hard study of the wo;-ks of Lenin, Marx and Mao, and to wear loose fitting underwear.” We consider this as a very slanted and unbridled statement. We therefore demand an explanation of the inflamed incidents mentioned above. Regardless of ali the student disputes happening on campus, we want it to be affirmed that Chinese figures, articles, etc., will never be used as a means of derision Agam.

Freedom for the press Freedom of the press must be unconditionally defended not because it is some lofty principle which all must bow down before. Rather freedom of the press, along with freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and association, must be defended because it is an essential weapon in the fight against corruption, injustice, and mdst importantly economic hardships such as the recent cutbacks in public expenditure in favor of private appropriation. This right is the working tool of democrats, socialists;and especially the communists, who are engaged in the teleological aspect of social struggles in moribund capitalism. The opposition has a substantially different array of forces. Behind them stand the heroes of the status quo, the intelligence and military services, police and fascist organizations, courts, television and radio networks, newspaper syndicates, and anything else that money can buy. These forces are obje,ctively opposed to ONI- freedoms be= cause they represent the interests ofa ruling ;Iass which, to maintain its position, must <electively, and sometimes generally, restrict or eliminate these freedoms, i.e., the War Measures Act. We can use our free;loms only as long as they can afford it. A comparison between Latin and North 4merica should help to illustrate this. Throughout the ‘Americas there is essen:ially one ruling class, whose financial :ertre IS the North-east I ‘.S. In North dmet-ica.

-elatively good and correspondingly people -elatively complacent, there exist liberal democracies, of a sort. Contrast this to Latin 4merica, where the economic situation, for iour average person, is extremely dismal grid potential for revolution correspondingly jigher. There, democratic rights are generllty non-existent. The same ruling class, but lifferent rules for a different situation. If you consider this in the context of a vorsening economic climate along with an ncrease in militarism here, a pessimistic :onclusion cannot be avoided. If the need irises, this same ruling &lass will eliminate 111possible opposition here as well. After 111, it wouldn’t be the first time a liberal democracy experienced a fascist coup durng an economic slowdown. This doe&t mean to say that I think shane Roberts is a fascist. He would be

more correctly characterized as an individual trying to build a personal political empire through influence and bureaucratic manipulation. Many politicians do that and in fact, if you wanted to be cynical, you might say that it’s all politicians ever do. Even if he did not use the general repressive measure of the elimination of the freedom of the press to attempt to smash a political organization that posed a threat to his own personal political clique, any removal of democratic rights, especially in an historic period when they are coming to be more and more in question, effectively disarms mass struggles against injustice, especially the fight against class ‘and sex exploitation which strikes the system at its core. It also legitimizes the further removal of democratic rights which will surely follow if no efficacious opposition arises. This pattern has already developed in other countries’and 1 don’t see that Canada has any special immunities. In the Federal Republic of Germany, radicals and communists are banned from government jobs and trade union membership. At the same time, the long hidden Nazi pres-ence in the military is showing its face. The West German army has publicly saluted Nazi crusader and most decorated Nazi officer Hans Ulrich Rudel. in France, freedom of the press has been systematicall) undermined through monopoly control by a syndicate headed by Robert Hersant, who during the German occupation headed a pro-Nazi youth group and was editor o’f its newspaper, Jeune Front. Students should support the unconditional reinstatement of the chevron because it presages further attacks on their rights. Indeed without freedom of the press, they are easy prey for further cutbacks and the more uniform and authoritarian pedagogical methods which go hand in hand with low educational budgets in this society. This little principle, support of freedom of the press, goes a long way in forging the democratic unity necessary for a group, in this case students, to organize around the demands important to it. I hope that the ‘chevron affair’ has been enough to make this obvious. - Reinstate freedom of press. Reinstate the chevron and let’s get down to the business of organizing against cutbacks.

The Real rat

This letter is in regard to the front page photo and article on the “Real” Chevron vol. I, no. 5, Jan. 7, 1977. We are outraged by the “Real“ Chevron’s racist attitude. We cannot understand how such disgusting, slanted material can appear on a so-called student newspaper. Opposition to Chairman Mao’s ideas is one thing, but insulting a national leader in such an irresponsible and blatant way is completely unacceptable. This is not- the first ‘time Ehat such -insults appeared in federation newspapers (Bullseye, “Real” Chevron). This is the most degenerate form ofjotlrnalism - if it can be called journalism. Therefore, we demand a public apology from the “Real” Chevron staff to all the students for printing such material. We would like you to make sure no similar degrading material appears again on the “Real” Chevron in the future. A g!oup of angered students

Six off with knee injuries

Puck Warriors Last Wednesday saw the return to action of the Hockey Warriors at the Waterloo Barn in a shaky start against the WLU Golden Hawks. Playing without six regulars, including captain Eric Brubacher, all sidelined with knee injuries, the Warriors wilted in the third period and absorbed a 4-2 loss. Further bad luck haunted the Warriors as defenceman Doug Mitchell sustained a separated shoulder and had a pin surgically inserted Friday morning. His services will be lost to the Black and Gold for the duration of the season. The first period started slowly for both teams, obviously feeling the effects of too much turkey and Christmas cheer. However action quickly accelerated as both teams assaulted one another with a barrage of hard rubber.

Laurier’s Al McSorley and Warrior’s Bruce Morgan both looked sharp; it was not until late in the‘ opening frame that a Barry Musselman slap shot from the point was deflected for a Laurier 1-O lead?’ , The Warriors pulled ahead in the second session on goals by rookie centre Don Langlois and sophomore defenceman Al McKee. The Warriors were assisted by some erratic refereeing which saw the penalty box adorned with purple-and gold throughout. However the officials decided to do a redecorating job in the final frame as Black and Gold predominated the sin-bin. The combination of previous injuries and the shortage-of Warriors imposed by the men-in-stripes, wore down the Warriors, and Coach Bob McKillop was forced to

ding to the top go with two lines and three defencemen. Laurier notched a trio of goals to wrest the victory from the Home Team. It was a better than average collegiate game and the crowd of approximately 800 were well entertained. -Both Laurier coach Wayne Goring and Warrior helmsman Bob McKillop expressed consternation with the officiating. The Warriors had two days off before their weekend junket to

Windsor to encounter the Lancers in a pair of crucial games. The vastly improved border-cityaggregation caught the Warriors by surprise on Saturday and Windsor jumped to a 3-O lead. Warrior goaltender Bruce Morgan was replaced after Windsor and Waterloo exchanged goals, leaving Windsor with a 4-l advantage. The plucky visitors fought back twice with one goal but they were unable to cash the equalizer, as Windsor goalie Freeman frustrated the six Warrior attackers in the last minute of play.

Waterloo dribbles on The Warriors lost their opener in the western division of the O.U.A.A. to the Windsor Lancers 73-72. The action took place last Saturday night in front of 1,500 spectators. Traditionally the WarriorLancer games have been squeak.ers, and this game was no exception. The Warriors were down 37-33 at the half. In the second half the Warriors were the dominating team in all areas except for rebounds. The last 90 seconds of the game saw the Warriors down 3 points. Waterloo center Bob Yahasz scored a dutch field goal and then Ted Darcie sunk two free throws, putting the Warriors up by one. It was all to no avail

Athenas tie for-top spot

Before Christmas the University of Waterloo Athenas swim team returned from a weekend Invitational Swim Meet at McGill University with many outstanding performances. The’Athenas ended up in a well deserved tie for first place with the host team, rather than a decisive win, as a questionable call disqualified Waterloo’s winning 400 medley relay team which set the Athenas back the necessary points to warrant the victory. Heading the Athenas with individual wins were Val Quirk and Laura Hecker. Val won both the 50 free in 26.1 and the 100 free in 58.2, while Laura was victorious on both the one and three meter diving boards. Patti Gorazdowska won the 200 free and placed 2nd in both the 400 and 800 free. Leslie Patterson, a first year Kinesiology student, made an impressive showing in the 50 free and 100 fly as she placed 2nd in both. Quirk, Gorazdowska, Pat-

terson and Eve Toy teamed together to finish first in the 400 free relay. Other fine performances were turned in by Karen Stewart who touched out Pat Smith of McGill by a tenth of a second for a second place finish in the 100 breastroke and finished 3rd in- the 200 breastroke; Brenda Lawry who placed 2nd in the 100 and 200 backstroke and the 200 I.M. and by Daphne McCullock who placed 4th in the 800 free and 200 breastroke. Other University of Waterloo swimming Athenas who helped contribute to the team title were Jane Goodyear, Vivian Vanden Hazel and Jackie Luty. Warriors also doing well The University of Waterloo Warriors Swim Team has finished its pre-Christmas season with an impressive win, 69-44, over Western’s Mustangs. This was the first time the Warriors have defeated Western in four years in dual

meet competition. Waterloo, winning 11 of the 13 events, was paced by three individual wins from John Heinbuch, a first year Science student, who captured the 1000 free, 200 I.M., and 200 fly. Waterloo had three double winners with Steve Brooks taking both the one and three meter diving events; Ron Campbell winning the 200 free and 200 breastroke, and Tim Wilson finishing first in two closely contested freestyle events - the 50 and the 100. Campbell and Wilson also teamed with Brian Harvey and Boris Jacyszyn to win the 400 medley relay with a new team record of 3:43.6. Harvey won the 200 backstroke and finished third in the 200 free while Jacyszyn came 2nd in the 200 I.M. with a season’s best time of 2:09.0. Other good performances were turned in by Tom Hett with a 2nd in I the 500 free and Rick Adamson with a 3rd in the 200 Backstroke.

as the Lancer’s Landry hit for a last second field goal. The entire game was very physical and the Warriors’ main weakness seemed to be under the boards where they were out-rebounded 64-39. Six foot nine Charlie Pearsail,’ the Lancers’ center, starred under the boards with 18 rebounds. Mike Visser was Waterloo’s top rebounder with 9. Yahasz was hot as he hit for 20 points in the night followed by Mike Visser with 16. Dan Revne topped the Lancers’ score sheet with 14 points. Before the season started it was predicted that there would be a tight race for first place in the Western Division. These predictions seem to have some substance as the other league scores are scanned. The Lancers dropped their first game to Western a week earlier 73-72, McMaster upset Guelph 74-72 and Brock beat the Wilfrid Laurier Hawks 94-80. The Warriors went into last Saturday’s game having just finished winning the consolation of the Calgary Invitational Tournament. Waterloo lost in the first game of the tourney in a block buster error filled game, 66-65, to the University of B.C. Thunderbirds. In their second round the Warriors beat Concordia convincingly by an 85-70 score. In the finals the Warriors met with and disposed of the University of Alberta in a convincing manner. The Warrior attack was spearheaded by Mike Visser who played a brilliant game, scoring 23 points. Calgary,_ the host club, beat Laurentian in a tight final 85-81. The Warriors played against McMaster last Wednesday night. The results of that game were unavailable at press time. Tomorrow Waterloo faces Wilfrid Laurier at Laurier.

Warrior marksmen were Mike Longpre, scoring his first of three weekend goals and Archie Chase, Al McKee and Don Langlois. Windsor was led by the hattrick effort of number 6 Forernier. In a must win game Sunday for the Warriors, gutty determination and an improved defence paved the way to a hard-fought 4-3 victory. Strong goaltending by Warriors Bob Clarke and Windsor’s Jake Dupuis highlighted the first period. Late in the opening stanza Mike Longpre took a pass just inside the Lancers’ blueline and smoked a booming drive over the shoulder of Dupuis. The period ended with the Warriors barely ahead. The Warriors and Lancers scrapped and snarled through the second period, with the Warriors again coming out ahead on goals by defenceman-captain Mike Zettel and Longpre with his second. Midway through the third period the Warriors pressed Windsor and tied up the puck for a faceoff in the Lancer end. Chase drew the puck to Harry Robock who drilled what proved to be the eventual winner. Windsor closed the gap to 4-3, but the persistent Warriors held on for the hard-fought victory. Bill Daub picked up a bruised lower leg which will have him on the limp for a few days. Also gutsy Joe Marcaccio picked up a bruised left shoulder which will keep him out of contact for the next lo-14 days. Warriors still cling to first place by two points with Laurier, Western, Guelph and Windsor barking at their heels. Good improvement has been shown by newcomers Mike Reger, Paul White and especially defenceman John Vermeer. Monday’s practice saw Dave Jitzie suit up and return to a regular. Eric Brubacher looks soon to be back in the lineup, Chris Cheppel and Jeff Fielding are out of their casts. Looking at things optimistically it is hoped Marcaccio and Jutzie will return for the next league game, Friday Jan. 21 against Western. That game goes at 8:00 pm. Keep in mind, fans, Waterloo arena is only twenty-minutes walk through Waterloo Park, you can even observe the tame wildlife at the Waterloo Mini-Zoo (training camp residence for the football Warriors), and don’t forget Waterloo Arena is easily accessible by foot from the Kent, Waterloo, City and Jokers Tavern. The Warriors would greatly appreciate further support, if there are any persons who can ward off the evil spirits of injury, please let the Hockey Team in on the necessary chants etc. Cheer the Black and Gold Warriors on to good health and a championship.

Look out Schenectady! The University of Waterloo Warriors, at least those who can push their wheel chairs or who can hobble on their crutches, will head through the snow for a game against Union College in Schenectady N.,Y. this coming Saturday, Jan. 15. Union College is coached by Ned Hawkness, the former Head Coach and General Manager of the Detroit Red Wings of the NHL. Hawkness is no stranger to university hockey, having chalked up an excellent record at Cornell University before moving to Detroit.
