itori . ._ The Acid’s falling, the acid’s

falling !

,

Some notable government officials should really be gymnasts given their adeptness at backflips on major stands affecting environmental issues. The culprit in this case, is one Dr. Harry Parrott of the Ministry of the Environment. Aside from extending indefinitely the proposed ban on dumping of liquid wastes that was promised for January 1, 1979, he has also given absolutely no proposed date on measures to be taken to rectify the current acid rain mess despite a US- Canadian scientific study that was released Monday October, 15, 1979. The report, the most comprehensive to date, illustrates what many in the scientific community have suspected for some time.

The US produces approximately , five times the sulphur dioxide and

nitrous dioxides (which combine to form acid rain) than does Canada (25.7

and 5 metric tons per year respec- tively]. However, the exchange rate, that is the amount Canada sends to the US versus the amount they send back, is 0.6 and 4.0 metric tons per year respectively (Globe and Mail, Octo- ber 16,1979) or roughly 10 times the amount Canada sends them, due mainly to wind conditions and industry type and location.

But the differences do not stop there. Equally important is the fact that Canadian soils, because of type, are more susceptable to acid leaching. Add to this the facts that the industries in the US that are responsible are so diverse that regulations fall into many-different jurisdictions, and that the US is due for a presidential election in 1980, so anyone in the White House who has the power to do anything is sitting on his hands until the next president is elected. To date, 140

lakes in Ontario are so acidic that no fish can survive, along with 100 lakes in the Adirondack region in New York State.

An Environment Canada official probably put it best saying that ‘“the situation is almost irreversible. Not absolutely irreversible, but almost.”

And if you think the problem is

just isolated to Ontario, forget it! The previously mentioned study shows that the extent of pollution extends as far as the lakes in I Eastern Canada (just starting to show initial changes) and to rivers in the Nova Scotia area that will no longer support fis,h life.

The government would appear to want to handle this mess as they have other environmental castatro- phes that have taken place in that area. In the past 15 years the government has given Reed Paper exemption after exemption resulting

in massive amounts of liquid waste (including mercury] being dumped into the northern rivers and, lakes. The situation reached its tragic climax with the occurrence of Min- ’ namata disease in Indian children of the surrounding area. The government took its usual “do nothing” stand and has still not compensated these people. Well that’s not really true; they did see their way clear to give tax ’ exemption give aways to Reed Ltd. so that they could update their operation. In addition Into was <encouraged to build their “superstack” in 1971, so that they would dilute the pollution into a wider area.

What does Harry Parrott plan to do? Well we could wait and see because that’s’ the attitud,e he’s taking. . . just waiting for the sky to fall. Or we can write to our MP’s, MPP’s, Harry Parrott and to the companies involved.

rt r Student involvement in the CHOC

(Cutbacks Hurt Our Children) rally at Queen’s Park this Tuesday will be important to ensure the rally’s success. The rally was organized to protest cutbacks in post-secondary education funding and social service

\ funding.

Member groups of CHOC (includ- ing the Metro Planning Council, Ontario Federation of Labour, many teachers’ unions and CUPE) will be

present at the rally along with representatives from the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS).

Universities that can afford to are sending buses down to Queen’s Park. UW’s student Federation is sharing a bus with Guelph. It leaves the campus centre at 4:30 on Tuesday. It is free. When so many member groups of CHOC are partici- pating to the hilt to give added credibility to the argument against

cutbacks, it is imperative that the student presence be impressive as well.

Involvement is an excellent way to let colleges and universities

Minister Bette Stephenson know that students don’t intend to accept

y current government funding policies.

It is also an excellent way to gain a higher profile with the voting public, since media coverage is expected to be substantial. Local news confer-

ences to coincide with the rally (which takes place on the eve of International Childern’s Day) have been organized province-wide with social servie groups in aattendance.

The matter of accessibility and quality of education are of grave ’ concern to us today as students. It -will be of grave concern to our children tomorrow. Show your inter- est and your support. Attend the CI-IOC rally on Tuesday.

- Tuesday at Queen’s Park - .

.

LJW students meet with other groups at Queen’s Park this Tuesday to pro- test education cutbacks. A rally, to take place at the Provincial Legislature, and organized by CHOC (Cut- backs Hu-ft Ontario’s Child- ren), will start at Ryerson Polytechnical Institute with a pre-rally. ’

Various student leaders, including Ontario Federa- tion of Students (OFS) chair- person, Chris MacKillop, will address the participants be- fore they march at seven o’clock, to Queen’s Park. Once at Queen’s Park, the speakers will address the rally, joined by representa- tives from various Ontario political parties.

At a recent OFFS confer- ence in Ottawa, all Ontario university campuses voted to support CHOC in the rally. Ottawa Mayor Marion Dew- er, who spoke to the confer- ence, urged students to adopt a higher profile with the voters so as to aid their interests. Participating in this rally would be one way. Those universities which are too far away from Toronto or cannot afford to send rep- resentatives to the rally will hold press conferences at their respective campuses.

CHOC is a large umbrella- like organization of which the ’ OFS is a part. Among its supporters are the Metro Social Planning Council, the Ontario Federation of La- bour, teachers from many

unions including the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation, Ontario Public Service Employees Union, the Congress of, Canadian Women, and the Canadian Union of Public Employees, to name a few.

The rally’s overall strategy is that since cutbacks affect many services including hos- pitals and social help agen- cies, these groups should pressure the government as a large, unified whole, rather than as small, separate units. Furthermore, the rally is on the eve of International Child- ren’s Day, which CHOC thinks may embarass the government.

There will be no attempt made to speak with the Minister of Colleges and

Universities, Dr. Bette Steph- enson. Rather, the rally’s purpose is to attract public attention to the seriousness of education and social service cutbacks. Many student lead- ers think that the public now perceives the issue of edu- cation cutbacks as a narrow one, affecting only university students. Actually, they say, the issue is a very wide- ranging one, as the number of different groups involved suggests.

Board of Education and External Relations (BEER) co-chairperson, Sarah Met- calfe, was the primary or- ganizer of UW’s participation in the rally. Although stu- dents do not usually partic- ipate well in these sorts of events, she thinks that the

rally is worthwhile, saying, “‘She (Dr. Stephenson] seems to base her policies on econ- omics. She’s forgetting that education isn’t a service to the students, it’s a service to society,”

A bus leaving for Toronto will pick students up outside the Campus Centre at 430 pm on Tues. UW is sharing a bus with the University of Guelph. BEER thinks that it can remedy the apathy a- mong students to issues con- cerning them by adopting a more sensationalist approach to getting students involved. BEER thinks that although it may be hard to get students involved at the ,beginning, experience from other univer- sities shows that, if the momentum can be maintain-

ed by keeping up the drive to involve students, then more and more students will par- ticiapale in these sort of rallies.

Some ideas broght forth at a BEER meeting on October 17 were to place theatrical presentations on the local cablecast and radio stations (including UW’s CKMS), stage events to attract atten- tion to the cutbacks issue, and get different groups on campus to contribute in a series of similar posters all depicting how cutbacks hurt these groups. The idea is to . draw positive attention to the problem of education cut- backs, not diminish their importance with childish stunts.

Waterloo prominent in NUS conference The 14th semi-annual con-

ference of the National Un- ion of Students (NUS-Oct- ober 11-14 in Regina) proved to be quite an experience for W,aterloo’s delegation of Fed- eration president Mark McGuire, vice-president Peter Wigglesworth and Board of External Affairs chairperson Sarah Metcalfe. The group ended up with over 500 pages of printed material on items covered throughout the meet- ings. Many important issues, several of great importance to UW in particular, were brought up on the floor of the conference.

NUS was created in 1973 to give post-secondary students a viable forum for voicing their concerns on a national level. The organization represents over 400,000 students and is involved in such diverse activ- ities as providing field workers for student unions across Canada, and writing research papers on student matters for government committees. With the merger of NUS and the Assosciation of Student Coun- cils (AOSC), several other services are now available.

Among the aids obtainable through AOSC are the Canadi- an University Travel Service (CUTS), which offers substan- tial savings on domestic and international journeys. They also offer the international student discount card, a very helpful item to obtain. AOSCis

currently entering their 11th year, healthy and properous, and looking forward to a long relationship with NUS.

Of more vital concern were the issues of women’s rights, unemployment and student aid programs. There was a great deal of bargaining and lobbying done over the week- end, but a bill of rights for the woman student was finally passed (see article, page 9).

A number of motions were passed concerning the matter of unemployment. Complaints have abounded for a long time concerning student wages and UIC benefits. It was decided to use the power of the national group to recommend some changes to the UIC program, including special allowances for students. Student unions raised the problem of wages which are too low for students to exist on, and decided to also fight for equitable minimum wages. They almost balked when they realiied that this included their own staff wages, but were not to be labelled as hypocrites, as they specifically included them- selves in the motion. Job creation programs were also discussed and supported. On the national level, the Canadi- an Labour Congress and other groups will be in close touch with NUS on the matter. Local forums with public officials are also in the offing.

Federation President Mark McGuire looking th’oughtful.

Student aid programs, most notably the Canadian Student Loan PLan, were under close scrutiny as well. The major problem seems to be a lack of realistic cost estimates when figuring out the loan, Adjust- ments were suggested to amend the situation, and all passed. They include basing the student’s contribution on his/her actual savings instead of using an outdated formula,

and not including summer

n

earnings. Parental contrib- utions will be redefined to a more realistic level, to alleviate

.the strain on parents. Loan repayment was to be cancelled until at least six months after employment, and the age of independence set at 18. Cur- rently, independence is defined as the age when you marry or after three years of full-time employment. It is also rec-

ommended to include part- time students in aid plans.

I?

A three-pronged attack is

S

planned to obtain this goal. The first part depends on sup- port-from students, the Fed- eration, staff and the Board of Governors: With such backing, NUS feels that a real advance could be started towards MP’s, MPP’s and government minis- tries, the second prong of the attack. Third, it is hoped to be

able to set up a national task- force to meet with Joe Clark’s cabinet to redefine the Canada Student Loan Act.

NUS, as the national student unit, is of great importance and is supported by the students of UW. Out of the refundable $10 Federation fee, 5Oa: goes to NUS to provide every student with a voice at the highest levels.

Last Friday’s dinner sponsored by the Indian Students Association (Ind. S.A.) and held at the Math Faculty Club was a great success. Following the fare of native Indian cuisine, members of the Ind.S.A., members of the faculty and students of the University gathered to hear the guest speaker, General T. N. Raina, Indian High Com- missioner to Canada.

Since arriving in Canada in February, the High Commissioner has visited eight provinces. He pointed out that on these trips he has noticed the significant part that Indians have played in the Canadian way of life. Canada is a society of multi-cultural- ism and because of this combination and co-opera- tion betwen cultures, we have become a successful country.

Following this introduc- tion, General Raina said that India itself has become quite successful since In- dependence. At that time, India had no industry - everything had to be im- ported. In the 1950’s the government created a cam- paign whereby through private capital, govern- ment investments and con- trol, they attempted to build a stronger economy. Now, he stated, India is the tenth largest industrial country in the world and is third in technological

skills, behind the U.S. and Russia. Raina emphasized that it was not the quality or quantity but the di- versity of products that has made India successful. Vast achievements have been made in not only the area of heavy industry but in rural industry as well. He believes the govern- ment’s campaign has been successful - Indiacan now export some things such as wheat and its balance of payments from foreign ex- change is healthy to the

tune of seven billion dol- lars.

But there are some exi ternal threats to the e- conomy such as the in- creases in oil prices and the subsequent trade deficit due to those increases. Raina went on to say that just as the economy is doing well, so is India’s political development. He pointed out that there is no in- stability politically and that the armed forces have remained devoted.

There was enthusiastic

response to General Raina’s speech, and after- Ya wards, Baldhev Singh, president of the Ind.S.A., gave thanks to the General and to all those who par- ticipated in making the gathering a success.

A recital of native In- dian music followed the formalities. The trio, V. Narasimhan, Dr. Vijayan and Raghava S. Main play- ing the sitar, guitar, and tabla respectively, topped off the evening well.

The latest addition, ,50 students strong, to the existing arts co-op programmes at UW is under review for tentative implementation in September of 1980. The proposal for an Applied Studies Co-op Programme was passed by the Arts Faculty Council last week and is now on its way to the Under- graduate Councils and Senate for a final stamp of approval.

,

Speaking with Bruce, McCallum, Asso- ciate Director of Arts, HKLS, and Math Co- op, and Ken Ledbetter, Chairman of the Arts Advisory Committee on Co- operative Programmes brought details of the proposal to light. As it stands, interested Grade 13 graduates with a minimum 70% average will register in first year Arts Co-op for acceptance into the Applied Studies Co-op. Students would choose an honours arts major, on top of which 16 half courses.are prescribed, including a second language, introductory economics, political science, computer science and other management- related credits. A grade average of at least 75% will be required for students to proceed to year two of the program, after which time work terms will be assigned.

The focus of work terms for Applied Studies is hoped to be in managerial and administrative jobs of a general nature, or jobs that relate specifically to the depart- mental discipline. With the existing avail- ability of various seemingly successful arts co-op programmes, we were interested to know the reasoning behind establishing another apparently overlapping pro- gramme.

Bruce McCallum statedthat the depart- 8 ment of Coordination and Placement

“became aware of employer interests.” Liberal Arts students are usually confined to career areas open to them. According to McCallum, this programme will expand the traditional directions an Arts student can pursue, and graduation with an Applied Studies Co-op B.A. will be similar to a business degree. (A bit of mild competition for our business friends down the street?) It is also meant to attract those employers who are not interested in hiring existing co- op students offered by the University of Waterloo.

It seems a fair assumption that arts students registered in co-op already have

ani a

Math 1, Renison It’s INhat you can expect when you have to satisfy a large number of people’s tastes at

vocational concerns. If this programis going to offer artsies jobs in the business world not presently offered by employers, we wonder if the flood of Arts Co-op students transferring to the Applied Studies programme will not be overwhelming. Although students from either co-op area, existing or Applied, may ideally compete for any of the job offerings, ultimately it will be the employer who chooses the students he wishes to interview and accept.

Although McCallum points out that the past implementation of new co-op pro- grammes has usually brought increased employer interest to existing programmes, he does admit that with time and employer demands, other arts co-ops could faze out. Ledbetter, on a similar note, said that regular arts co-op would not die out “unless other students can’t compete” with the Applied Studies students.

So where does this leave you? The Arts Students Advisory Council has expressed their concern to the co-op administration over the future of regular arts co-op in regards to this prbposed new programme. CHEW will keep you informed on the progression of the proposal. If you are concerned over this new programme or have any other responses tomake regarding co-op at UW, drop us a note at CHEW, c/o Imprint, Campus Centre, Room 140, University of Waterloo. And remember that you can phone us on Thursdays from 2:30 to 5:00 p.m. at 885-1660.

For thqse of you looking over courses to enrol1 in for the winter term, it’s of interest to note that an introductorjr computer science course has been recommended by Ken Ledbetter for all co-op students. It seems that computer is the second language of the day - let’s hear it for business bilingualism.

For those first year students interested in arts co-op, an information session is being held onOctober22inArtsLectureRoom 113 at 430 p.m. Arts co-op’ offers everything from anthropology, applied economics, economics with a CA option, economics with a management accounting option, English, political science and sociology. Be there.

Confusion grows within me as if a taxi driver accepted his fare but drove off without waiting for an exorbitant tip. This world which was once so carefree and gay has now become . . . no, I dare not think of it lest I grow sane. And yet, I must, for I too am enwrapt in the madness that is midterms, an all-pervasive insanity which at once threatens the mind and the body, the heart and the soul. No! No! A thousand times no! - yet, maybe. For, I, too, shall sit in silent wonder in the thousand-seated halls where brave students do quake and quiver at the first sight of exam papers. Oh, vile and treacherous High School Guidance Councillors, why did ye not warn us? And yet, stay, such a question is meaningless, now. It is not meet for me to complain so; not kosher meat, in any case. Waterloo, . . . Wat- erloo, oh, for hoppier days agone! ‘Tis passing strange [a concept not easily intercepted or well-recieved]; how could I allow you to thus vex me? ‘Tis as if one thousand full beer bottles were lined up before mine outstretch- ed arm, forever out of reach. Yet, I must ask again, forsooth (maybe more, I don’t know), how didst this state of affairs come to pass? Mere weeks, nay, days ago, 1 was celebrating the sacred festival of Oktoberfest with a number of my close acquaintances. We were laughing and singing and wearing funny hats, as befits the solemn occassion. It never occurred to us (at least, not I) that the gods would send trials with which to test the strength of our purpose. Oh, great and glorious and wonderful and wise Needles, creator of all buildings, wouldst that I could prove my worth in a manner more becoming a man. And what of you, Hagey, god of arts and tacky architecture? Do you attend my pleas? And even you Matthews, who, at the moment, is popular with the plebes, art thou content to show no mercy to

such a worthy subject? Alas, they answer me not - mayhap, my room offends them. (If a room offend thee, clean it up?) No, whatever, the reason, the gods shall offer me little this day - it is for I, a mere mortal, to go intd these strange, barren places (which even now ! do recall as being called ‘Lecture Halls’) and, facing down Professors and Teaching Assistants alike, write my midterms. Midterms, *.. what an innocuous sounding word. See how easily it rolls off the tongue - midterms. -Surely no mere serendipi- tous a word be in all this vast and wondrous language. Yet, no more hideous and revolting a concept. A midterm by any other name would still spell defeat. Memories do flood upon me like flies upon spoiled meat: the Orientation ritual (wherein I was drunked nine times), attending the first week of classes, not attending the following weeks of classes. The gods look down and make ,rude gestures. Yet, stay, for an idea forms itself in the mush which now passes for my mind. ‘Tis a strange thought, to be sure, aye, and desperate, too. Aye, and fraught with peril. Aye, and ma.yhap even dangerous. (Ye gods, ‘tis indeed a strange time if one creatuse be allowed so many eyes.) Mine idea, to wit (for, indeed, one wit is not enough with which to envisage such a concept): j might I not . . . study? But ho, no! No! What fools we students be! Oh, gosh, what am 1 saying ? You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things; are we not men? See you not how you have affected me? - I ramble on like one of extreme age (at least 30). And now, this?

“Beyond realisrn”

The state and nature of Western art in the twentieth century will be the focus of this year’s Hagey Lecture Series, to be held October 22 and 23 at 8:00 p.m. in the Humanities Theatre.

Sir Ernst Gombrich, re- nowned art historian of the University of London, will deliver two lectures generally entitled, “Be- yond Realism” - on the influence of idealistic philosophies on Western Art. Monday’s lecture is subtitled “The Cult of Beauty”and Tuesday’s talk concerns “Twentieth Century Mystics”.

Sir Ernst was born and educated in Vienna and, after graduating from the University of Vienna, joined the Warburg Institute in London in 1936. He was its Director and Professor of the History of the Classical Tradition from 1959, until his retirement in 1976. He has held guest Lecture- ships at a number of British and U.S. univer- sities, including Oxford, Cambridge and Harvard, and has received eleven honorary degrees. He was knighted for services to the art world in 1972. He recently delivered the Wrightsman Lectures at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and is widely acclaimed for his lucid and stimulating lecture style.

Among his popular better known publications is the Story of Art which has been translated into thirteen languages. He is the author of three volumes of collected

articles on the taste, st,yle and patronage of Renais- sance Art and on the symbolism of Renaissance painting. To the scholarly community as a whole and to psychologists and philosophers in particular, he is well-known for his remarkable study of art and visual perception Art and Illusion, to which he recently added a pendant The Sense.

The Hagey Lecture series was founded in 1970 in honour ,of Dr. J. G. Hagey, one of the founders and first Pres’dent of the University of Waterloo. Each year it brings to campus scholars of world reputation who have distinguished themselves in a particular discipline. In 1978 the Anthropologist Richard Leakey was well received, and in earlier years Astronomer Fred,

“Hoyle and Zoologist David Suzuki were among the

.guest Hagey lecturers. The lectures are spon-

sored jointly by the Faculty Association and the University of Waterloo and are open to the community at large.

Ms Phillips was top student among candidates for masters’ degrees this year.

Gold medalist among UW’s PhD candidates will be Reginald Victor, an Indian-born biologist who has been on the campus since 1975.

Ms Phillips came to Waterloo as a geography students from the University of Victoria, where she had an outstanding record as an undergraduate student. During her stay at UW she was supported by scholarships fr‘om the Social Science and Humanities Research Council and from Bell Canada.

Ms Phillips is now enrolled in a PhD program in political science at Carleton, where she is also teaching an undergraduate course.

Mr. Victor completed a master’s degree at Waterloo in 1976. Currently, he remains on campus as a post- doctoral fellow in the department of biology.

In \addition, Mr. Victor has participated in a number of campus organizations and activities including the Graduate Club, the Indian Students Association and the president’s advisory committee on intercollegiate athletics funding.

UW Probe Demonstrates Against Reactor Sales

UW Pollution Probe conducted a trip to Ottawa for the demonstration against the overseas sales of Canadian nuclear reactors.

The rather small group left from the university Friday evening and were billeted in Ottawa by the organizers of the demonstration.

Total attendance for the protest ranged in the neighbourhood of 1000 to 1500 people.

The demonstration took the form of a march for the U. of Ottawa to Parliament Hill, where various NDP MPs addressed the crowd, calling for an end to sale of nuclear reactors, particularly to countries-which refuse to sign non-proliferation treaties.

The demonstrators then marched to a nearby auditorium where David Suzuki spoke on the seriousness of the nuclear issue.

Computerized Data Users To Meet at UW

Social scientists who use the computer to store and manipulate immennse quantities of numeric data. . , that is, whose research is in large measure “data-based” . . .will be meeting together on the University of Waterloo campus, November 10 to 13. The conference is being organized b.y Dr. Elliott Avedon of UW’s department of recreation; Dr. Avedon is director of the university’s leisure studies data bank, the world’s largest body of -information on leisure activities computer tapes.

The conference is being held

through the International Federation of Date Organizations and is being underwritten by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, UNESCO, IBM and the university.

About 40 will be attending - historians, political scientists, psychologists, sociologists, economists, recreationists and other

social scientists - from Poland, Denmark, Belgium, Sweden, Italy, West Germany, Norway, France, and England, as well as from the United States and Canada. They will discuss the use of data bases (huge collections of computerized data) in teaching as well as research, ne-w methods, new computer facilities and systems, the sharing of data banks and so forth.

“We’ll find out what’s happening and what’s coming up in the future,” says Dr. Avedon. “We’ll talk, for instance, about the best way to organize data for teaching and research purposes.”

David Assman, co- ordinator for Radio Waterloo, stated that the increase was “necessary due to rising costs in all aspects of the station’s maintenance”, This fee is the mainstay of the organization and Assmann stated that they had no choice but to ask for an increase if the quality of the station was to remain the same. This fee is refundable during the first three weeks of classes. The Radio Waterloo fee is not a requirement of

The University Tenure Advisory Committee, which also acts as the Appeal Committee, reported to the Senate, on October 15, with regard to appealing a negative Presidential recommendation for tenure. It was decided that the appeal should be granted providing it is considered according to the Procedure for Appeal,

Also, the minutes ‘of the 137th Meeting of Council of Ontario Universities (COU) on September 28 was submitted for report. The Council Chairman met with Premier William Davis and his ministers to “discuss the role of the universities in the 1980's and talk about the public financing necessary for the universities to fulfil1 this role.” The Premier also suggested that the universities should strive for greater communication with the general public.

No new cutbacks were introduced at this meeting, nor were there any committments by the Premier on financing. The Premier did not consider financing as important as the improvement of communication. It wastdecided at COU that the present policy of assuring a minimal funding for graduate students be retained.

The Senate approved the conferment of degrees for the Fall Convocation, to be held Friday, October 19, 1979. Also submitted was the resignation of E.J:Harris-Shwartz (Graduate Student Representative) from the Senate.

Canadian Campuses Storing Hazardous Radioactive

Chemical Waste OTTAWA .’ - Universities across

Canada are being investigated regard- ing the improper storage of radio- active and chemical wastes on cam- pus.

At the University of Ottawa recent- ly, it was discovered that 34 can- nisters of a radioactive ’ chemical, tritium, were being stored on a dock in the biology building. The storage area was not locked; the only warning was a “DO NOT TOUCH” sign, and a “radioactive waste” sticker on each cannister. ’ .

Athough the surface radiation level was nil, the radiation level would have been harmful had any of the cannisters been opened.

At the University of British Colum- bia, anger continues to mount over the discovery that radioactive Sodium-22 had been stored in the basement of a classroom/office building and that the basement has been used as a storage area for radioactive materials for several years.

Twenty-two professors whose of- fices are located in that building have written a letter to the Radiation and Radioisotopes Committee at UBC, calling for a complete description of what the building has been used for in the past.

“I think that the University itself should call an investigation, that they owe to us”, said Dale Rolfson, one of the professors. “The important thing is to find out what has been in there.”

Wayne Green, the B.C. Inspector for the Atomic Energy Control Board, said that there was no infraction of UBC’s licence to store the radioactive sub- stances because the radiation levels were below the legal limit.

Foreign Students: More pro- tests lodged against CTV W5

program.

OTTAWA - More protests have been lodged against the public affairs program W5 that claimed foreign students are crowding Canadians out of university programs.

The Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC) has filed a strong protest with the president of the CTV network and the producers of the W5 show.

i The show, which was aired Sept. 30, claimed that international students are forcing thousands of Canadian students out of post-secondary edu- cation programs such as engineering and medicine and are costing Cana- dians millions of dollars.

And a spokesperson for the Univer- sity of Toronto International student centre said W5, “misused the statistics we gave them.”

Figures released in a report “Citizen- ship of students and faculty in Canadian universities” prepared by the Council of Ontario Universities for AUCC indicate that in 1977-78 less than 5 per cent of total university admissions were visa students. The statistics, which are based on actual enrolment figures, indicate that in 1976-77 21.5 per cent of the 18,304 visa students were from Hong Kong, 20.4 per cent from the United States and 15.2 per cent from the United King- dom.

“The program was built around a particular case which was entirely unfounded,” said Alan Earp, president of Brock University in St. Catharines and current president of AUCC.

W5 interviewed a Canadian student from St. Catherines who was not admitted to the University of Toron- to’s pharmacy program. The impli- cation was made that she was refused admission because the space was taken by a foreign student. In fact not one single visa student had been admitted to the pharmacy faculty, he said.

The program also implied that there’ are large numbers of “foreigners” in medicine at U of T when there are only two visa students in a class of 256, he said.

Much of the problem, according to AUCC, lies in the confusion betweeen landed immigrants and those with student visas. Under human rights legislation landed immigrants cannot be differentiated from Canadians for the purposes of post-secondary ad- mission.

The president of the Chinese stu- dents’ association at the University of Toronto said they are concerned about the program’s implicit assumption that all students of Chinese descent are, “foreign.”

She said she has approached the Ontario human rights commission but the electronic media-is not under its jurisdiction. The association is cur- rently seeking an apology from CTV.

National Union of Students re- searcher Jeff Parr said the program had manipulated statistics and ig- nored other relevant ones, leaving international students the “‘scape- goats” for problems in the education system. Parr said it came across as a “thinly-veiled racist attack on inter- national students.”

“It’s incredibly misleading. They’ve got a bit of information and blown it out of all proportion. They’re basically causing havoc,” he said.

The W5 report also said that most of the foreign students coming to Canada are the children of the elite in other countries. But Parr said that measures taken to discourage foreign students. from entering Canada, such as the imposition of differential tuition fees in seven provinces, serves to ensure that only the economic elite can afford to study here.

Backed by unanimous resolutions from the execu- tive of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) local 793. ahd a group consisting of the presidents of the Federa- tion and the societies, the temporary summer stu- dent workers have taken th-e step they had hoped to avoid - legal action.

The issue arose when the local’s two-year con- tract expired on June 30 of this year. Because work- ers were awaiting the outcome of two other local CUPE strikes, and an arbi- trator was late in arriving, the new agreement was not hammered out until Aug- ust 30 and ratified on September 10. By that time, almost all of the student workers had re- turned to their studies.

Because of a supplemen- tary memo, which E. Lucy, director of personnell, claims is “standard proce- dure”, the temporaries did not receive retroactive pay

because they were no long- er employed. The Admin- istration’s story that they would be “too difficult to locate” has been vehem- ently refuted by student federation representative Larry Smylie.

Smylie observed that, ‘by law, the employer must keep a record of addres- ses for the 24-month per- iod after termination, and still must have the addres- ses since the students received their tuition bills, etc.

Concerning the memo’s validity, Lucy stated that it was ti “covering agreement” signed by the bargaining committees on both sides. The memg of agreement is as binding as any contract, said Lucy, but subject to ratification by the union l.ocal and the Board of Governors. According to Smylie, neither body actu- ally ratified the document, and ‘he said he had been shown theariginal contract by local president John

Kersley. The paper in ques- tion he says was in no way attached to the bargaining agreement voted on and signed by both parties.

Another issue under in- tense debate is that of union representation. for the stu- dents. Lucy maintains that the dispute is “clearly not a union matter”. The fact that the temporary staff paid 80% of the regular union dues does not make any difference to the fact of whether or not they are provided for by the union. The last collective agree- ment has no mention of the fact that the union does represent them, but they have been treated in the past as if it did. The students maintain that they are rep- resented by CUPE, and are in favour of strengthening the ties, as dupported in the society/Federation resolu- tion. When questioned on the matter, Smylie replied, “Mr. Lucy is barking up the wrong tree if he expects students to cut t.heir own

A s *‘tos still kills A total of 100,000 to contract a disease. Cases

have been noted when miners’ families have contracted asbestos diseases from the miners’ clothes. Beall related an example of a woman who drove a sandwich delivery truck to a Johns Mannville plant in Scarborough and contracted an asbestos associated-disease.

States begin working with unions and the information barrier was broken.

The Asbestos Informa- tion Association often blames the victims rather than their working conditions for illness. The “Blame the victim syn- drome” points fault with the workers rather than with industry therefore saving industry the money and time of improving safety problems.

Some of us may feel that this situation is unfortun- ate and “something” should be done about it, but perhaps all of us would consider the threat of asbestos more closely if we realized that only one fibre of asbestos is necessary to create an asbestos disease. Instances of parking and bridge toll attendants contracting a.sbestos diseases, because of the asbestos emmitted from brake linings of cars, are common. Asbestos sur- rounds us in insulation, ceilings t’iles, make-ups and foods. Surely it is time, as Beall stated, that “something drastic was done about the control of asbestos in our lives.”

individuals have died as a result of asbestos related diseases in Canada and 400,000 in the United States. This number of deaths will no doubt be added to as the latency period between the onset of exposure to asbestos and when sickness can dccur is approximately 20 or 30 years.

Moya Beall, a researcher with The Corporate Research Centre in Toronto, spoke in a WPIRG ‘Brown Bag Seminar about the Politics and Hazards of Asbestos. There are two major areas of concern when discussing asbestos: its effects on the environ- ment and its effects on those who have to work in its presence. Beall’s talk focused upon the devas- tating effects asbestos has upon workers and how this problem has puposefully been ignored by both industry and government.

There are approximately 3,000 industrial uses for asbestos. It is used in floor coverings, draperies, insulation, talc powders, and cosmetics. Asbestos is even used as a filtering agent for many of our soft drinks and in some brands of beer and wine. Once bre:athed in or swallowed, asbestos can not be removed.

There are several types of disease -associated with asbestos. Beall outlined the four maj-or types. The most common, Asbestosis, is a crippling lung disease where the 1 ungs become inflexible. Asbestosis is irreversible. One out of ten asbestos miners contract this disease. Lung cancer, gastro-intestinal and larynageal cancers and a disease called niesothe- lioma are all results of exposure to asbestos. Qeall

,stressed the fact that a person need only have a minimal amoun-t of exposure to the substance

Beall emphasized the unnecessary ridiculous- ness of any of these diseas’es being contracted in the workplace as industry and government have known about asbes- tos’s effects since -Jhe 1920’s. The Asbestos

,Corporation of Canada’s behaviour was described by Beall as being “crimi- nal”. Beall cited that Canada is the largest producer of asbestos in the western world and has been the slowest to move on the reforms within industry.

Scandinavian countries have cut down on all uqnecessary uses of asbestos due to the extensive information relating to its negative health effects. Yet only two years ago, Bette Stephen- SOT,, then Minister of Labour, stood in front of the Commons and stated that there was no link between asbestos and lung cancer.

Beall urgently stressed that there is no neutral party between government and business that can look into the drastic change of working conditions for miners and those that work indirectly with asbestos. Iiformation about the effects of asbestos have largely been hidden from the public by scientists due to the pressure they have felt from their industrial financiers. Even now, some doctors are urged not to tell patients the severity of their asbestos diseases. Only in the 1980’s did doctors in the United

throats by ne’gotiating away their union repres- entation. We pay for union representatives - Mr. Lucy can talk to thoserepresenta- tives.” As of now, the Administration’s positibn has been to deny union representatives the right to give the students’ point of view.

The Administration, how- ever, appears to be willing to discuss the matter. An invit- ation was given by Lucy, who stated, “Smylie has insisted on discussing this as a technical issue and we are quite willing to meet with any group of students and

discuss it as a moral issue.” In light of the act involving contact with the CUPE lawyers by the students, the technical side has not been considered dead by the group. Smylie was quoted as saying, “It is Mr. Lucy who has put forward the technical issues, not the students. Mr. Lucv’s tech- nical arguments hive now , been technically dest- royed.” It now remains to be seen if the Administra- tion is willing to take the matter to court as the students have proven their intentions.

Sniylie left the Adminis- tration a parting question:

“Is it the intention of the University to cheat the students?” When asked to clarify what he meant, a reply was quick in coming, “Dr. Matthews has said that we can be paid if the university wants to, so we can assume that the uni- versity doesn’t want to, which, in essence, is cheat- ing us.” He also voiced the hope that he would not have to take the matter to court, since he does not wish to discredit U of W. However his mandate from the students is to obtain their “rightful pay”, and he intends to do so.

NUS passes pro-choice A formal declaration of

“the rights of the woman student,” sexual harass- ment, and- discrimination were the main ‘topics of discussion ‘at the second women’s caucus of the National Union of Stu- dents (NUS) conference held last weekend in Regina.

The declaration and its proposals were also one of the main focuses for lobby- ists at the NUS conference since all delegates were aware that the contro- versial declaration would be presented for ratifi- cation at the closing plenary on Sunday.

A steering committee was struck at the last NUS conference in May for the purpose of drafting the women’s declaration.

The main area of concern in the 22 point document was for most delegates the recommendation that “all women be guaranteed the freedom of choice in the matter of abortion.” Some delegates felt that they were being requested to endorse a matter of personal morality for their student bodies, and they were reluctant to do so. The lobbyists’ a_nswer was that the recommendation did not ask for a moral decision, only a decision that would allow women the choice to make their own personal decision.

UW delegates had been in a “quandry” over the “moral issue” but did vote in favour. “It’s a freedom of choice matter” explained Federation president Mark McGuire. “It gives the student freedom of choice.”

The declaration ob- tained the necessary two thirds majority, and passed although there were many abstentions,

Women’s caucus mem- bers had pointed out earlier during the women’s issues workshop that “a lack of control of repro-

,duction systems is part of women’s oppression and limits access to post- secondary education.”

Other recommendations in the declaration included the setting-up of adequate childcare facilities for student mothers in order that their education not be hampered; the revamping of the Canada Student Loan Plan to offer aid to part-time students; the responsibility of student councils to promote and finance women’s organi- zations on campus; that health services used by students should fulfil1 needs of women with respect to services to deal with rape, birth control and abortion; freedom of choice in sextial orineta- tion; and a boycott of advertising and entertain- ment that promotes violence and other forms of sexism toward women. -

During the women’s caucus, Jan Fox pointed out that there are no provisions in the Human Rights Codes which encompass sexual ha- rassment in education or employment. She sugges- ted that surveys on sexual harassment should be conducted on individual campuses to gain an indication of prevalence

and also that women’s centres, provincial stu- dents’ groups and NUS lobby the federal and provincial governments to promote changes in the Human Rights Codes. The survey would be circulated to all members of univer- sity communities. Confi- dentiality would be guaranteed. The women’s . steering committee will eventually circulate the survey on campuses.

Discrimination against women, particularly part- time students, was discussed at some length. Because of inadequate childcare, funding pro- blems, and reassessment of goals, many women who return to university or start their education later in life must attend on a part-time basis. The ’ Canada Student Loan Plan (CSLP) it was felt, makes it very difficult under these conditions to meet the criteria for obtaining a loan.

A lobby of CSLP to “address the particular financial concerns of women” and of the federal and provincial govern- merits. to “fully subsi- dize childcare” was endorsed by the women’s caucus.

It was also decided to encourage university administrations to “de- velop policy prohibiting streaming of women int,o traditional fields” and tq “create policy which recognizes the necessity of women’s study courses.”

Wives lead to worse (things)

The Editor, I’m disturbed by the levity with which

many people view the name of the all- male rock group “‘Battered Wives”, and I’m particularly disturbed that the Feder- ation of Students would sponsor this group. - Look at it this way. Why don’t we have rock groups called “Molested Children”? Or “Bashed Pakis”? Or “Battered Kids”? We find these names offensive, and they bouldn’t sell. But battering wives - that’s trendy and sells; sells very well.,

A few weeks ago I was a victim of sexist thugs. I was walking down one of Kitchener’s quieter streets and was set upon by two men who decided I was a “faggott” and were going to beat me up. Luckily, I managed to get away. I have curly hair, two hammer toes on my right foot, was wearing a red bush jacket, and like Indian food and the music of Berio. ,Obviously a pervert of the most insidious kind.

If we didn’t have Toronto police and religious biggots labelling guys as ab- normal, if we had legislation to enforce and promote sexual tolerance, then Kitchener’s streets could be safe for me and my straight and gay brethren. Assaults would no longer be sanctified.

When I mentioned this incident to my housemate, she smiled and said, “that happens to women all the time. This afternoon I was walking down a street and some guys sitting on a porch started whistling. When I ignored them, they started jeering and calling out ‘look ,at that frigid ass’ “.

That’s the kind of treatment that is fostered by the accumulation of small incidents such as accepting the name “battered wives” or talking about “hot chicks”, giving women inferior salaries, opening some bars only to men, and

parading female flesh as marketable meat. As a result, wife beating is accepted, and women have to fear the streets. Once we start marketing violence through such trendy h’ype, then it becomes accepted and expected. Eventu- ally, it becomes introduced into our lives by the media, as something normal.

Being faced by violence yourself is frightening - and it can hurt. It also rapidly changes your perspective. Don’t wait until it happens to you.

Tull not dull

The Editor, As an avid Jethro Tull fan, it was

refreshing indeed to read Mr. Scheffel’s review of “Stprmwatch”. Many major groups have, in view of the current Disco and New Wave rage, acceded to popular demand and radically altered their styles, Ian Anderson, however, has refused to cheapen his product. Going continuously against the mainstream of today’s music, he has proven himself to be one of the most talented. musicians around.

After last Friday night’s concert at Maple Leaf Gardens, the Toronto media characteristically lambasted Anderson’s ’ performance. The Globe and Mail music Critic, Paul McGrath, went as far as criticizing the concert for lack of a stage show! At a concert the focal point should be the music, not the lasers and firebombs that some groups employ to draw attention away from their music. What Mr. McGrath fails to realize is that in Tull’s case, it is the man and his music that packs that Gardens, year in, year out. The dynamism that Ian Anderson exudes on stage had the sellout crowd spellbound and more often than not, in a nearly frenzied state. Few, if any performers today can match his stage presence. The media-hype that follows most groups (like Supertramp, for ex- ample) is non-existent with Tull, and though not getting nearly enough airplay, Anderson’s music is as strong as ever, even after 10 years.

After just having listened to some New Wave or punk rock (or whatever it’s called), I’m more than relieved that I had “Thick as a Brick” to restore my sanity.

Increasingly we are bombarded with information about food andits effects on our health.-The information is confusing and often contradictory. However the overwhelming general consensus ig that our diet is harmful not only to the environment and the Third World, but to

.our own bodies. In fact, according to the- U.S. Senate Committee on Food, our diet is responsible for most of the major causes of disease and death in North America (heart disease, diabetes, cancer etc.). <

“We have sacrificed common sense to sugar-coated sensation, honest reality to cosmetic illusion. We are eating too much of the food that harms us and too

* little of the food that helps us.” -Food and Your Health

Of all the environmental factors affecting us, our diet is apparently causing us the most harm, and yet is is the area over which we have the most personal control. We may not have much influence over the arms race, polluti.on, crime or inflation. But we can-improve our general health, decrease the amount of illness, conserve food and the resources needed to produce it; and amazingly, in the process, cut down on the cost of our food bills, by improving our diet.

However, sorting through. the vast amount of often contradictory inform- ation is a complicated and often overwhelming task-and often in the

WPIRG Semihar

resulting confusion tie justify contin- uing to eat the same harmful diet. It is just too difficult to sort out what to do.

These books give a good !basic understanding of nu!rition and the health consequences of our diet; enable us to improve our diet; and provide a base of knowledge with which to assess much of the contradictory information on food. Of equal importance, these books are inexpensive, short, easy to read and contain pithy self-contained chapters.

comp&ition of our diet, the report outlines the decreases in specific dis- eases that would be-expected to result from this -change. Obesity would be reduced by 80 percent, heart disease by 25 percent, allergies by 20 percent, arthritis by 50 percent etc. It discusses how our food budget would decrease, how the behaviour of prisoners has been improved by dietary changes, and that nearly 70 percent of T.V. advertising is spent on lo w-nutrient, generally high- calorie foods.

we normally eat can be harmful (refined flour, coffee, tea, etc.). ’

The last section has very _concrete suggestions (including a meal plan) for . changing one’s diet.

Food and Your Health was originally a series of newspaper articles written by the medical fiporter of the Kingston Whig-Standard. According to a respect- ed source, when the project was first initiated the newspaper had no expect- ation that the research would support the views it did. theassumption was that once the reporter had talked to scien- tists, government and industry, the evidence would show there was a fuss about nothing. The result however is a*- book that discusses the link between food ,and cancer, the harmful effects ‘of lead, tin, drug residues, pesticides and dyes in our food, the controversy surrounding government regulations and more.

Nutrition, Back to Basics was origin- alljr written as a series of individual teaching pamphlets for a medical clinic with a preventative focus’. It is a synthesis of 5 nutrition books (repres- enting about 2,400 pages) which the author feels are key source books.

As in Eating in America, the first part of the book examines the problem: food and it relationship to health and disease. They approach the topic from different perspectives, thus the two books comp- lement each other.

Additive Alert is an important ad- dition to this series of books, considering each* Canadian consumes about 5 pounds of food additives a year. Additive Alert is the only popularly written publication dealing with the topic of food additives allowedinfoodin Canada. The handbook outlines the types and iises of food additives, and indicates which ones are of quektionable safety and why. In short it is a guide to reading food labels. The author exam- ines why there are so many additives in our food, unravels how Ottawa regu- lates their uses, and suggests what we can do about the proliferation of these additives. .

This book sets the stage for the ones that follow. It provides some examples of the processes and substance2 that render our food harmful-well docu- mented examples that are sure to - convince even the most hardened sceptic.

The report is a very credible source of information. the information had to be solid to stand up to the cross examin- ation and lobbying efforts,of many of the. major food industries. The report recommends decreasing our consump- tion of red meat, high cholesterol foods, fat (especially saturated), salt (by 50 to 85 percent) and sugar (by 40 percent). Following the recommendation on sugar would decrease our total energy intake by 15 percent. The next book on the list disctisses how to carry out these changes in a joyful and painless manner.

Student Housing.: Rent-out or Shelter, like food, is declared by the United Nations

to be a basic human right. The degree of quality of that shelter, however, is notdeclared, and varies around

the world. Here in Canada, or more specifically in Waterloo, we do not have the severe problems faced by the inhabitants of the Sahara, nor the overcrowded population of India.. We do, however, have our own specific set of icircumstances in our housing sit- uations. Most students;like a growing proportion of urbanites, are housed in multiple dwelling complexes owned by landlords; often these landlords are absent from the premises.

The interests of tenants and landlords differ, and are often found to be in conflict. A landlord is operat- s , ing a business and intends to make a profit, These are the overriding concerns governing his or her decisons.

A tenant -is interested in having a home that is liveable; and in being able to enjoy that home in a certain amount of comfort and privacy. For students, -- as well as many members of the general population, these criteria must be expanded to include theneed for - a living space that is also economically feasible.

In spite of these dissimilar points of view, many students and their landlords manage to co-exist in relative amicability. There are, of course, exceptions.

Many of these exceptions-students who have problems with their dwellings or their landlords- find their way to the University of Waterloo’s Legal Resources Office (LRO).

According to the Office’s Rob McKenzie, “50 out to the 75 or so problems brought to our attention so far have been about landlord-tenant matters.” Some of these cases have involved something as minor as the landlord asking for ten dollar key deposits (which is illegal), noted McKenzie, but others, he said, have been much *worse.

In one instance, some students were forced to pay their rent on a pro-rated basis. That, McKenzie explained, is a scheme in which the rent for one and z half months is paid each month. [While in some cases this procedure is legal, and in others not, it often posesa financial burden to students,,especially if they must pay the first-and last month’s rent before the first day of tenancy). In any case, McKenzie said that the students found that they could no longer live in the apartment, even though they had paid the rent and were entitled to occupy the place for the summer.

- Tbugh Act to Follow -

Legal Resource’s . .\ Leslie Robinson has worked for several years as a

member of the Tenants Action Centre in Mississauga, and. Metropolitan Toronto’s Tenant’s Legal Services. In 1978, during the Committee Hearings into Bill 163, Leslie Robinson, as a member of the Board of Directors

.- of the Mississauga Community Legal Services, represented the interests of tenants groups at Queen’s Park. At the present time, Leslie is associated with the University of Waterloo’s Legal Resource Centre. She is interviewed for the Imprint by Marg Sanderson.

Imprint: How did the new Residential Tenancy Act come about?

Robinson: The Residential Tenancy Act (RTA) grew, _ in part, out of the Residential Tenancy Rent Review Act (RTRRA). The RTRRA was a piece of temporary legislation that had expired and been renewed repeatedly because a permanent Act was taking years longer than expected to prepare.

Why was it necessary to have a new Act?

The RTRRA, which is often just referred to as the Rent Review Act, and the Landlord Tenant Act often didn’t mesh. For example, the Rent Review hearings could not deal with repairs or landlord problems; the County Court could not deal with rent increases that were illegal under the RTRRA.

There’s been rather a lot of talk about the controversiality of the Landlord Tenant Act. Is it a particularly troublesome piece of legislation?

From a tenant’s point of view expecially, the LTA is a very protective Act. The rights and obligations,of both landlords and tenants are spelled out quite clearly in it. When problems arose with the LTA they could usually be traced to either lack of knowledge on the part of the tenant, or the difficulties experienced in trying to enforce the Act.

Could you give an example?

When repairs needed to be made in an apartment, and the landlord refused to do them, it was-up to the tenant to take the matter to County Court. This is the same court where murder and rape trials are held. An individual would obviously be reluctant to go to County Court to get a leaky tap fixed!

What kind of-process did the Provincial Government use to formulate the new Act?

A green paper specified various choices open to landlords and tenants. One choice was to keep the situation similar to the present LTA. Other options all, by the way, worse for tenants, were also discussed in the paper. Then preliminary hearings were held in the spring of 1978 to get the opinions of large numbers of landlords and tenants. The major complaint at these meetings was the lack of knowledge of the LTA.

What happened as a result of the hearings? The green paper and the material from the hearings went to the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Affairs. Out of this came Bill 163, an Act to Reform Law With Respect to Residential Tenancy. Then another committee, made up of Conservatives, Liberals and New Democrat MPP’s in an approximate 6:4:4 ratio, very few of which were lawyers, held hearings about Bill i63. Landlords and tenants

presented briefs on the Bill as a whole, and then, on specific sections of the Bill.

It sounds like rather a lengthy process. Was there any problem with the time factor?

Yes. The fact that time was running out was responsible for some of the intiequacies of the new Act. Many of the briefs dealing with Bill 163 in general, incidentally, were completely disregarded in the section-by-section hearings. These had taken a great deal of time to hear. One of the members of the Committee made rule that once a section had been dealt with, no more discussion about that particular section could take place. Consequently, much material was rushed through and some pretty glaring contradictions were the result.

You mentioned that the Committee included members I from th-e three major parties. Did party politics play a

lip-Off? When they came back during the four months, they found that someone else’ had moved into the place.

In another LRO case, a certain landlord had, a notice put on his tenants’ door saying that services wo,uld be ctit off unless his tenant personally paid the hydro bill (for which the tenant was not responsible).

Another student, one who was expecting guests on Saturday, found on Qiday evening that his toilet wouldn’t flush, said McKefizie.

There has been a building reported to the Legal Resource Office where at least one version of the lease has been discovered to be illegal.

In another instance, a student who was completing her lease was told to give her receipt for her key deposit to the landlady and that she would receive her money “later”. When she asked for the money, however, she was informed that the landlady couldn’t find the receipt and so, she was told, no money would be forthcoming.

Again, one group of students went back to their townhouse to find that the door lock had been changed

talk to the Liberals because often the NDP’s would support them, and the Tories would at least listen to what the Libirals had to say. Often decisions concerning the Act were’made along party lines rather than on the merit of the proposal, and it seemed to me that at least some deal-making took place at these meetings. ’

What happened after the Committee Meetings?

From the tenants’ point of view there were still’quite‘a few problems. The tenants’ associations intended to lobby for amendments, but the Liberals didn’t meet with us and “the bill went through the house as planried, mainly due to time restrictions. . .the House was closing in only a few days for the summer recess.

Under the -Residential Tenancy Act (RTA), if a landlord obtains an eviction order and a tenant appeals the order, the order is not automatically stayed. The tenant could still be evicted while the eviction.order itself is under appeal. He or she would have to know enough to find a RTA commissioner who would be willing to give another order to stay the original order to evict. Another problem concerns precedents. Under the old Act, the LTA, a judge is bound by a dicision from a higher court. With the new RTA, precedents are not binding. The same decision could be made and successfully appealed over and over again.

What kind of machinery will there be to deal with problems under the new Residential Tenancy Act?

There will be a Residential Tenancy’ Commission. Commissioners will be appointed for a 5 year term by’

- the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Affairs, They will investigate complaints, make decisions and issue orders to landlords or tenants. Appeals will be made to a’ tribunal.

Access to the Commissioners will be much easier and more immediate. Decisions won’t have to go through. the long. process of court hearings. On the other hand, the same commissioner that first hears a complaint from either a landlord or tenant will also do investigations and issue orders from the commission. Because the new Act leaves so much unsaid, so much implied rather than stated, a lot will depend upon the particular cdmmissioner’s opinion, bias, or point of view. House /rules will present another problem because they can be changed during ienancy. A commissioner who hates cats, for instance, might be inclined to favour a landlord who decides, suddenly, to Take a house rule disallowing the tenant to have cats in his or her apartment.

When will the new Act come into effect?

As it stands now, the RTA should be effective by December of this year.,

and that the-y were only able to enter their place ’ through a broken window. the landlady refused to give them aCkey until they paid the rent that they were withholding because repairs, such as the broken window, were still not done. _- .

One of the worst cases--occured where a student informed the LRO that he was 1ivin.g on the second floor of a building that had no light, and no railing on a landing which fell away in$a twelve-foot drop. He also mentioned that the clock on his stove emitted sparks. W()‘S advice to him, said McKenzie, was to ask for a fire safety check and to call the municipal building inspector.

There have been instances, agreed the LRO’s Kriss Eidsvik, where students have telephoned to find out about their right to ask the landlord to call an exterminator. “One of the buildings we know of has an infestation problem,” said Eidsvik. “In one case, where we advised a student to have her landlord extermin- ate, he entered her place with the exterminator when she was studying in another room and had pesticide all over her kitchen before sh.e even knew he was there.

Needless to say, her dishes all had to be taken out and thoroughly cleaned, and ,a11 of her food was a total write off.”

Many of these problems, note McKenzie ‘and Eidsvik, could have been avoided if the students had known their rights or had done some checking before they agreed to move into a townhouse or an apartment.

McKenzie’s advice to students who are thinking about moving into off-campus housing is to always read everything very carefully before signing. “If there are problems with the wording in a lease, or if you suspect parts of it to be illegal, especially if you are moving into a building with a “well-known reput- ation”, bring the lease into the office before you sign it,” suggests McKenzie. = -

McKenzie also would advise students to keep copies of all letters, receipts and notices from landlords and reminds students that, until they receive a signed copy of a lease, they are not bound by the terms of the lease, except for having to pay rent if they are living on the premises.

Students should also be aware that in signing a form called either an “intent to lease” or an “application to lease?, they are signing a document that, is as binding

as a lease. As well, says Eidsvik, students should be aware of

their rights when it comes to evictions and complaints (see box).

“One of the major problems we see in this office,” she adds, “is the lack of communication between tenant and landlord. A lot of students, when we ask them if they’ve been in touch with the landlord about the ,problems they have, say no.” In many cases the landlord is not aware of the sticking door, or the leaky tap, and would be only too willing to fix it, she said.

‘McKenzie stated that, although no approaches had been made as yet, he would like to see more communication between the Legal Resource Office, and Wilfred Laurier University’s legal counselling office, as well as a liaison with the housing office. The LRO is also planning to set up a type of Legal Education Week for students, advising them of their rights, sometime in early February. ,

“In the future,” said McKenzie when asked about the direction in which’the LRO is moving, “I see our office providing somewhat the same function for students as a tenants’ association.”

Peek concert .k “I love God, and I love to talk about Him.”

Dan Peek’s comment about halfway through his concert at the Humanities Theater last Sunday pretty well sums up both the content and the purpose -of the show.

s

Bob Nolte, a former Chicago Tribune reporter and spokesman for the sponsor, Maranatha Ministries, estimated the crowd at just under 500. The show began about 8: 10 and lasted for an hour and a half.

We were ushered to a pair‘of front-row centre seats around 7:30 by Mr. Nolte, who later returned to ask me ‘if I’d like some publicity phots of Dan. He returned again shortly thereafter with the pictures, re- marked that he’d heard the title cut from Dan’s new All Things Are Possible album on a Detroit rock station, and told me to enjoy myself. Being inclined towards cynicism, I

> viewed this red-carpet treatment as ass- kissing, j although I’m sure a number of people connected with the show would go out of their way to assure me it was no more than ordinary human kindness and consid- eration. Thanks, I appreciated it.

It’s pointless for me to talk about Peek’s show as a concert. It wasn’t. It was a religious experience, a gathering for a group of people who shared Peek’s religious views

and fanatical zeal for Jesus Christ. Anyone who showed up at the concert who wasn’t prepared for a sermon was in for a shock.

Peek’s set consisted of 13 songs (and a one song encore), five of which, as advertised, were hit singles for Peek’s former group, America. Not only were the other nine songs about Peek’s return to the teachings of Jesus Christ, but the America songs were imbued with a spiritual feeling as well; these slightly altered lines from the America single, “I Need You”, “And now they’re gone/I guess I’ll carry on/And make the best of what you’ve left to me”, once only about a lost lover, could have been written yesterday about Peek’s decision to leave America, give up drugs and the other “pitfalls of success” and follow Christ. The other America songs similarly sounded much different out of the original context.

My opinion of Peek’s performance really doesn’t matter. The vast majority of the audience was with him from the time he set foot onstage to the time he left, and did his bidding, whether it was clapping or singing, with more spirit than any rock audience I’ve ever seen. The sparkling eyes and the beaming, cheery faces in the lobby after the show were evidence that the performance had been an enjoyable and moving

On Friday, October lZth, pianist- composer Andre Gagnon performed to a sell-out crowd at Humanities Theatre. The native of St-Pacome, Quebec, is finishing off a year-long tour of Canada.

Gagnon on piano was backed up by a rather strange mixture of instruments. To the left side of the stage there was a standard string quarted and a flutist. To the right were two electric guitars, a drummer and a tympani player.

The piano was in the middle of the stage, middle of the road between the two music styles.

Andre Gagnon plays well in a wide variety of styles, from long melodious concertos such as Le Saint-Laurent to short, snappy pieces of pop-disco such as Ddnna and WOW. He also had a good rapport with the audience, speaking in both English and French during the show. Nobody seemed to mind that; he got his point across every time. “It-says in the program that I’ve sold millions,” he said to the audience. “That’s

I not true, but I count on you to make it true.” Gagnon has made ten albums so far, and

an eleventh is on the way. The latest, Le Saint-Laurent, sold 100,000 copies in two

, weeks. Across Can&la, his performances were sold out weeks in advance. His tour started about one year ago in New Brunswick, and included one month at the Place des Arts in Montreal. The run through

Ontario finishes off the tour. Next Gagnon will be recording his new album, Movements for a Christmas releas,e date. After that, he will write an opera to be performed in Paris in the spring of 1981. He has already done a ballet, a movie score, and two CBC Superspecials. The second will be telecast November 25. It is truly amazing how one person can do so much with a piano.

Gagnon’s performance never lostethe audience’s interest; one man who had never heard of Andre Gagnon before said after the show that he wished he had.

Gagnon led the audience hand-clapping a few times, and received two standing ovations at the end of the show. After the first, he returned onstage for a curtain call, waited for the applause to subside, and said, “I’m still here, you’re -still here. I will play another song.” He received a second ovation for that.

After the show I managed to talk with him for a few minutes. He said the tour has been very successful. When asked if English audiences differ from French ones, he replied “The English are more quiet. They don’t yell as they do in Quebec.” *

Gagnon will not be touring for another ~year or‘two, but when he does, he says he will play at UW again.

jVilliams: razor-wit Reality, What a Concept

Robin Williams

Robin Williams, star of TV’s Mork and Mindy, has just made his first comedy I album, Reality, What a Concept. In it he manages to satirize nearly everything topical with a razor-sharp wit that never lets up. Moving quickly from one routine to another, Williams keeps the audience wbndering what will come next.

“A Meltdowner’s Nightmare” is a Shakes- pearian-styled spoof of radiation, full of subtle political jokes and stabs at television and disco. “Come Into My Mind” offers an insane look at everything.

One outstanding routine is “Pop Goes the Weasel.” I’m sure you’ve heard of Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood, a children’s pro- gram in which a nice, middle-aged man talks ’ to kids, does experiments, and so on. ,

Williams mimics the voice of Rogers perfectly, singing as he comes in, then suggesting “an experiment that you can do in your own home:. .let’s put Mr. Hamster in the microwave!”

Williams uses his impressive vocai range in a variety of crazy routines like an impression of Lawrence Welk introducing the Lennon sisters singing “I Can’t Get No Satisfaction.” “ Kindergarten of the Stars,’ features Truman Capote Jr. and Sammy Davis Jr. Jr. in a high-class kindergarten.

The album has one minor flaw: Williams’ excessive use of foul language. Occasional swearing is one thing, but there.‘s too much on this album. Williams also recorded a “clean” version for radio airplay, though.

Reality, What a Concept is great fun at parties, and a refreshing change from the Williams you see on TV as Mork.

expensive experience for them.

‘It didn’t matter than he couldn’t keep his guitar in tune, that the rented monitor wasn’t working well, that the microphone on the piano could barely be heard, or that his frail Neil Young-ish voice sounded naked singing the America songs without the help of Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell. Similarly, his frequent pleas that we let

’ Christ into our hearts in order to find perfect happiness were applauded, and his sugges- tion that we pray right there in our seats was accepted gladly. He could do no wrong.

What does matter is that this wasn’t advertised as a religious rally-it was advertised as a concert. Ads for the show drew mainly on his success with America:

. “An artist who captures the emotions of today’s people through the lyrics and feelings of his music. A man who is respected for his personal and spiritual commitments” and that he is “now ready to

share his artistry and faith with audiences across America”, lines which appeared in the concert ad, could probably be applied just as easily to Dan Hill and Bruce Cockburn.

Nowhere did it say that Maranatha Ministries had 2nything to do with the show.

sermon And that, as far as I’m concerned, is deliberately misleading: some people came just to hear good music, and found that the music took a back-seat to religious matters.

I don’t hold anything against Maranatha Ministries-the people I met were very nice to me, regardless of whatever motives they may have had. I admire their members, and Dan Peek, for having the kind of dedication they have, although I can’t in any way relate to it. I do feel sorry though for that handful of people who paid $4.50 or $5.50 for a ticket, expecting just music, and got a Maranatha pamphlet and sermons ramrodded down their throats along with the tunes.

If Maranatha expects to gain some credibility on campus and obtain club status, they could start by making it clear what is in store for us when they sponsor an event. Using techniques like those they used for this concert is not going to do _ anyone any good.

What little they may have gained financially or spiritually from getting a few’ people to come who might not have attended had they known what was in store for them cannot offset_ what they lost in credibility. I, for one, will know better next time.

Merle Shain McClelland and Stewart-Bantam

It has often been said that the one thing that everyone has to give and no one is willing to take is advice. That is why it is

! refreshing for an author to write about life and love, while banishing altogether the smug tones of Ann Landers. ’

When Lovers Are Friends by Merle Shain I is not a code book on how to run your love

life. Rather, it is as a compassionate letter of reassurance to those who are caught up in the confusing knot of relationships known .

AS everyday life.. The book is a collection of anecdotes,

personal philosophy and proverbial stories. Because of the thematic arrangement of chapters, the chaotic potential of the material is overcome.tThe book is easy to read and flows beautifully from topic to topic.

The major emphasis of the work, implicit in the title, is summed up-“There is no perfect person who can make you whole. You have to do that yourself, and if you wait , for someone,to fill you up, you will always wait in vain because no one-is equal to the task.”

plain. Well, wouldn’t you know it-the plain one managed to marry a nice doting . accountant while the gorgeous creature was always beseiged by con men who left her miserable. _-

The implied moral is that a loyal husband

One of the author’s main themes is how to find strength in yourself, to truly\ trust yourself to make the right decisions. Her belief is that you will only find that strength if . you learn how to make friends, and more important, learn how to be a friend yourself.

Thus Shain advocated the possession of a caring group of friends to support you over the major and minor tumults of life instead of the “ownership” of a spouse or mate.

The one major flaw in the book is a tendency towards triteness. She presents some pretty hackneyed opinions, then

is the ideal while the attentions of many admirers is less than desireable. This story contradicts in part the message of her book, yet she glibly relates it and quickly changes the topic.

For the most part, however, the anec- dotes and stories are vivid and new, and illustrate her viewpoints lucidly. Shain does

C oncert . ..the problem being, of course, how to objectively review a band that has the good taste to incorporate a line from a Three Stooges routine. into one of their songs, and whose biggest audience reaction was derived from said line...

Having consumed no small quantity of , ‘-beer (conservately estimated at five gallons)

and danced for the better part of six hours, I was convinced that, unless they played some high energy space rock polkas, there was no way FM could avoid putting me to sleep. How can anyone follow Walter Ostenak? Furthermore, I wasn’t sure how to approach the members of the band, having heard that they were at very least a little bit pompous.

Meeting drummer Martin Deller before the show helped to dispel my skeptical feelings to some degree. Deller’s responses to the few questions I asked - once I got over the idea that he must sit up at night planning his responses to potential ques- tions - were precise and to the point, and the impression I got of him wasThat he was a man who knew exactly what he wanted in life, and how he was going to get it. He was confident of his own abilities, and those of the band. In short, he was in total control. It was hard not to admire him for it.

Deller and FM’s precision, confidence and control were quite evident, in their playing too. It’s difficult to describe exactly why FM seemed so good at first; it has a lot to do with their tight, precise playing and their perfect sound system. Somehow, even

I hearing their direct-to-disc album on a very good stereo pales in comparison to their live show, although the way they play the songs live is not much different from the album versions. It’s obvious their music is made to be heard live. Whatever misconceptions I’d come with disappeared, and for the first half hour, I was spellbound.

.

- FM inconsistent - c -!

lP g e. ins ’ Well; _ ends well , , Unfortunately, something happened to

change the momentum of the show, and FM seemed to lose hold of the audience after that first half hour: It started around the time that Deller did qfive minute drum solo - a solo that proved absolutely nothing because we already knew from his previous thirty minutes of playing that he was an above- average drummer. His bow at the end of it suggested that maybe he did have a bit of an inflated head - he looked like a rookie U.S. college halfback who’d just scored his first touchdown on national TV. Audience contact at this point was minimal,-and the use of a lot of synthesized bass and a lack of vocals tended to make everything sound the same. The near capacity crowd began to murmur, the guy on the end of our row passed out/fell asleep, and the guy beside us began to ogle at the young ladies in front of us. It looked like FM were losing control.

It’s hard to say when the tide turned again, but it certainly did. Cameron Hawkins, on keyboards, began talking to the audience more, and Ben Mink, on violin and mandolin, seemed to really hit his stride. Sneaking across the stage like a mischievous child about to play a trick on Hawkins, he’d acknowledge being caught with a smile and run back to his side of the stage, only to try again later. While not as visually striking as former FM-er Nash the Slash, his playing is no less flamboyant, and he really seemed to enjoy himself. By the time FM ended 1 l/2 hours of playing with a great “Phasors on Stun,” they had the audience back in their collective pocket. Three encores, including a terrific rendition of the Yardbirds classic “Shapes of Things,” and the tune with the immortal Stooges “Mae, Larry, Cheese!” line brought the audience to its feet, and ended the show on a positive note.

Blithe Spirit i

Marital rebellion .

&the Spirit,Noel Coward’s often hilar- ious drawing room comedy, was presented

I last Thursday at the Humanities Theatre. The touring production, which was also e staged by the Shaw Festival this sumper, was excellent, garnering much laughter throughout the evening.

The play started off slowly, with the introduction of the major character2 and plot line. Charles, the central character, his wife Ruth, their maid Edith, friends Dr. ‘and Mrs. Bradman, and Madame Arcati, a mystic, elicited little positive response in the first act as they prepared for a seance. Although the characters showed promise, none of them appeared able to carry the play.

until the entrance of Elvira.

. .

Elvira, the ghost of Charles’s first wife, appears to him and him alone. Much, of the humour of the play revolves around his inability to convince those around him that ‘she exists, and, when he finally does, around the efforts-to get rid of her. To his credit, Coward’s play, though somewhat dated, still

i! corn s across as funny.

revealing her true shrewish nature only in the second. Again, as a ghost (for by the evil machinations of Elvira, Ruth dies at the end of the second act) Ruth’s earthly character seems exaggerated, yet it never attains the status of a caricature. # ,

hadame Arcati, the mystic who summons up the original ghost, is well-played by Betty Leighton. At first, she may seem-to be over- acting, but by. the time the seond act gets ‘going, her insistance on unrestrained good cheer (which, gene;ally, is not borne out by the events in the play) is quite humourous. i- A r&or disappointment in the cast isJack

Medley, who plays Charles. At the end of the play, he is supposed to denounce both his former wives (who held him under their sway when they were each married to him). Whereas he doesn’t do a bad job of showing to what degree he is imder their thumbs, Charles never attains quite the right amount of wishy-washiness, thereby weakening the ending.

.

An ending which, undoubtedly, would have feminists up in arms. Yet, within the context of the play (not to, mention the context of the times), Charles’ eventual rebellion against his wives makes sense. He has been under the domination of women for most of his life, and the events of the play gave him an excellent opportunity to change this state. (In a way, this can be seen as a reversal, albeit an odd one, of feminism’s urging male- dominated women to take control of their

- own lives.‘ Feminists notwithstanding, Blithe Spirit

was an enjoyable play. r * Ira Nayman

What sets this production apart from others is the acting. Jackie Burrough’s Elvira is properly coy and quaint with just the correct amount of domination. As a ghost she is wilIowy and rather demure (an exaggeration, perhaps, of the way she lived?.)

Soccer teams were involved in matches ’ Q with their counterparts from York

‘University and all three Waterloo teams came up on the short end of the score.

The football Warriors, playing at York, Saturday afternoon, were blown out 25-1, by the improving Yeoman. The .Rugby team failed to capitalize on its opportunities and lost 15-6 while the Soccer team blew a 2 goal lead, dropping a 3-2 decision to York Sunday at Columbia Field.

“We played them on fairly even terms but it was the big play which really hurt us against York; They broke our backs with those two long punt returns and thei did it against the wind. We were holding them when they returned the one punt Ear approximately 90 yards for a TD and then they came right back with anothe$ return of approximately 60 yards to set up their other TD,” said Wally Delahey the Head Coach of the University of Waterloo Football War- riors. ’

-4 “Our failure to score has also hurt us,” said Delahey. “It’s not from a lack of trying. The players have been really putting out. It’s just that we seem to

. have lost our confidence in how to score. We get over cautious and then we niake simple mistgkes and that hurts us,” said the Coach.

“‘Our dkfense played well. It wasn’t their fault that we lost. If anything, it was our speciality teams which let us down.

“Dave Goodwin and Joe Alves play<d well against York. Joe simply never stops trying. He’s a candida,te for an All Star position this year.

In looking forwar to the visit of the UT Blues this Friday evening Delahey said, “They will probably come up with some new wrinkles that they will want to work on prior to the playoffs. They shold be pretty loose. They have a tgugh defensive team. They’ll know that they have been in a game after Friday’s contest.

“I[ may have to play Bill Boug at the quarterback position. ‘Bob PTonyk hurt

* his shoulder against York and it may keep him out of the Toronto game. While Bill Boug can certainly db the job as QB, it will hurt his chanck to become the leading receiver in our Division. Friday’s game against Toronto will start at 7:00 pm and not 8:00 pm as originally scheduled.’

RWbY The Rugby Warriors suffered their

second loss of the year last Saturday to a smaller though quicker York Yeoman side. Again the score’was not indicative of the play as the majority of the pressure was exerted by the Warriors.

A strong wind which faced the Waterloo side in second half along with stupid penalties at moments of great pressure aided in the loss.

The Warriors have still got to be rated as one of the better teams in their tight league but are suffering from indivi- dualism and mental lapses which have resulted in either scores .by the good teams or prevention of scores by the Warriors.

Phil White was again responsible for the Waterloo scoring with penalty kicks of 40 and 45 yards in the first half. Still, two first half tries by York resulted in an 8-6 lead for the Yeoman.

In the second half the Warriors’ pressure was apparent. Thirty minutes of the forty minute half were played in the York end of the field, but whenever the Warriors threatened, one of those pehalties had them starting all over again.

* A mental lapse in the backs resulted in York’s third try of the day.- The War,riors still had an opportunity t;b take the game as the convert was missed but penalties once again turned the game around.

The Warriors still have a chance for second snot and a berth in the final, but Above and below, soccer action between York (white shorts) and Waterloo. The Warriors

Soccer . ’ , “We had a 2-O lead but we just

couldn’t hold it,” said Ron Cooper, the Head Coach of the 1JW Soccer Warriors.

“If all of our players had played up to their potential, we’d have been alright. But we seem to have those letdowns and

8 they really hurt us. “We executed well but we couldn’t

keep it u.p. We jumped out to a 2-0 lead after about ten minutes. It was 2-1 at the half. York scored with about one minute to go to win the game.

“We’re really getting short of players. We had two injuries in the York game. I had to take Alex Harrett and Bryan Billar to the hospital. Alex had an eye injury and Bryon had a head injury. Both were released but they may or may not be ready to play against Brock this Wednesday. ’

“Alex got hit in the eye with the ball when a York player shot from about four feet away. Bryon hurt hi.s head in a collision with a York player.

“Our scorers were Jeff Hill and Mike Wigmore. I had moved Mike from his defehder spot up to centre forward. It was a gamble that we had to take. It left us vulnerable in the backfield area but we needed more pressure up front.

“We’re down to about thirteen pl.ayFrs at the present time. I hope that they’re all ready to play on Wednesday against Brock.

The win over York was similar to the previous victories in that many strong individual performances were over- shadowed by a great team effort. The Waterloo forwards have begun to be recogpized as an intimidating force due to their hard tackling, fierce rucking

*Iniraplay Replay Flag Football

With one week remaining, in Women’s Flag football

‘schedule it looks like Sou- thern Selects will capture the division-one title, St. Pauls the division two title ; division three and four are still up for grabs.

In football action last week, we saw the possible preview of the champion- ship game. Southern Se- lects, a veteran team (de- fending champions) played off against the rookie team from St. Pauls.

The 15 minutes of the first half saw both teams move up and down the grid iron several times, with neither team able to put points on the scoreboard.

With 5 minutes remain- ing in the half, Barb Colton connected on a short dump pass to Karen Reid who dashed 15 yards for the touchdown. Barb and Ka- ren connected once again for the extra point making it 7-O.

1

After St. Pauls received the ball on the kickoff they marched right down the field under the guidance of their rookie quarterback Mary Lee Kapusty. Mary Lee picked the Select’s defence apart to put St. Paul within scoring dis- tance.

After two unsuccessful attempts in crossing the goal line, Mary Lee con- nected with Carol Haven in a picturesque play to bring St. -Pauls to. within one point. At half time Selects had 7, St. Pauls 6.

The second half of the game saw Mary Lee pick up where she left off in the first half. On several occassions St .Pauls were knocking on the goal of the Selects, but the veteran defence held strong and firm.

With five minutes re- maining in the game .St. Pauls tied the game on a punt by Mary Lee. I

With time running out Shirley Koshi intercepted a Barb Colton pass to place

St. Pauls in excellent field position. Mary Lee threw a long pass to Shirley Koshi for the winning touch- down. Final score St. Pauls 13 Southern Selects 7. Men’s Flag Football

After five weeks of play in Men’s Flag Football St. Jeromes A team still re- mains undefeated. S J should take the division Al title. In division A2 it looks like Optometry will retain the title.

In B league action the Beagles are the favourites this year to capture the championship. In division Bl, Amalgamated C should have no trouble capturing the title. In division B2 the engineering team of Mech .Manics will most likely capture the title. In division B3 we have a close race between the C.R.‘s and Beagles for the division title. In B4 Mech 83 are most likely of claiming the title. In B5 the division is still wide open. In B6 we pre-

Ball Hockey In last weeks ball hockey action at Seagram Stadium we saw the top two teamsin A division battle it out”for first place. West D Alumni came out on top with a 6-3 score over the Muffriders.

If the past few weeks of play are of any indication of the type of play that is to follow, the A league teams will be battling it out to the end for a playoff position.

Of the 21 teams in B league the Bang Gang seem the favorites to capture the championship as they are the only team with an um- blemished record.

If the Bang Gang team is to be defeated it will most likely come from one of 3 teams, OTLB, ES5 or

Irtterco&giate BriejIis - Warrior Band

This Friday, the Ontario- Quebec Intercollegiate Band Conference champion Waterloo Warriors Band, augmented by their pro- visional wing, the Plum- mers Hard Hat Band, takes on the no. z ranked Lady Godiva Memorial Band from the University of Toronto. As the last reg- ularly-scheduled concert of the season, it promises to be a -real battle for su- premacy. Warriors Band coach Steve Hayman feels that the real test will come at half-time.

“All three groups will be joined together to present the National Anthem before the game”, Hayman said Tues- day. “With any luck, we will all be playing it in the same key.”

When asked if the War- riors Band had been holding extra practices to prepare for the big match, Hayman is reported to have said, “No”.

Lately, he has contributed a higher per- centage of his team’s points than just about any other kicker in the league. Toronto is coming off a 6-4 loss to Laurier, so all the fans that turn out will no doubt witness a football game.

Note that the game time has been moved up one hour to 7:00. The football Warriors deserve a good turnout for their final game of the season. Stick around Friday evening.

Field Hockey Saturday last, the Athe-

na field -hockey team tra- velled to Toronto to play perhaps “the best and the weakest” in the league. The University of - Toronto squad have won the league (OWIAA) championship since the league was formed in 1971. The Toron- to team really out played the Athenas, pounding se- ven unanswered goals by the Waterloo team. “I can’t remember a game where we

success and seemed to be going along smoothly. This really represents a set back.“.

The second game of the day was against Western, whom the‘ Athenas had defeated earlier this year 4- 2. The final score was 5-O with the Waterloo goal scorers being Cathy Cum- ming, Cheryl Chapman, Lois- Scott, Leslie Yeates and Lisa Bauer. The Athe- nas redeemed themselves slightly but Coach McCrae was quick to point out that there really isn’t a redemp- tion of the Toronto game.

The Athenas complete their exhibition schedule Wednesday, at 4:30pm at the Columbia Fields against McMaster. The OWIAA tournament play begins on Saturday at Toronto. The Athenas will face Lauren- tian, McMaster, York and Guelph in their pool.

“Our players picked up a lot of experience,” said Lou Wagner, the Head Coach of the UW Water Polo Warri- ors. “Our players have real spirit this year. We should do well before the season is over,” said Wagner. -

While inexperience may be a problem this year, a de- manding schedule of tourna- ments should toughen the team before league play starts in the new year. The Warriors contest November tourna- ments at Lakehead and Laur- ier before hosting the Nai- smith Classic November 23 and 24.

. to a second team all-star and McCrae admits he will not be readily replaced.

The burden of leadership will-fall to OUAA all star forwards Seymour Had- wen and Doug Vance, and to guard Leon Passmore. However, Hadwen’s broken hand could keep him out of several early matches.
