Board votes to suspend pension contributions Pension funds not affected by one-year measure

A portion of what is being described as "a substantial sur­plus" in the University pension plan will be used to help reduce Concordia's operating deficit for 1986-87. Funds in the actu­al pension plan - valued at more than $100 million - are not in any way affected by the measure.

The Board of Governors voted last Thursday "to sus­pend for one year" the Univer­sity's contribution to the pen­sion plan.

on the p~nsion plan's invest­ments.

The Chairman of the Board, the Rector and both Vice-Rec­tors were required to allay con­cerns raised by some of the faculty representatives on the board that the governors' action might make some employees jittery about the security of funds in the plan.

Even by suspending the Uni­versity's portion of the contri­butions for one year, the administration told the board that Concordia's pension plan remains 100% funded, and that there is more than enough money in the plan to meet all current and future payments.

A scene from the famous Odessa steps sequence of Eisenstein's classic film The Battleship Potempkin. If Soviet film interests you, then the Sept. 26 (8:30 p.m., room VA-114, Visual Arts bldg., 1395 Dorchester W.) lecture by Richard Taylor is a must. He will lecture on the Soviet Cinema. Taylor, who teaches in .the department of Political Theory and Government at the University College of Swansea in Wales, is the author of two books on the subject: Film Propaganda and The Politics of the Soviet Cinema (1917-1929).

In taking the decision the governors made clear their action is "an exceptional mea­sure for this year only," and noted that they had the support of the University's benefits committee.

The decision to use part of the pension plan's surplus will contribute to the overall reduc­tion of Concordia's operating deficit for 1986-87.

Board Chairman Donald · MacNaughton added that he

did not see "in all good con­science" how the board could agree to add additional funds to "an already excessive sur­plus" at a time when the Uni­versity is facing such serious financial difficulties.

Board members Terry Fan­cott and Hal Proppe suggested that the governors delay their decision at least until the Octo­ber meeting to allow time to inform the Concordia commu­nity about the move.

But Vice-Rector Whyte pointed out that the matter had been under discussion by the benefits committee for several months, that the committee has representatives from every sector affected by the plan -faculty, non-academic staff and the administration.

In other business, it was announced that 12 new gover­nors have been appointed to fill vacant positions on the board. They are: Marie-Josee Drouin, Director of the Hudson Insti­tute of Canada, and Leonard Ellen, Chairman of Leonard Ellen Canada Inc., represent­ing the community-at-large; John Economides, Chairman and Managing Director of Cor­porate Donations at Imasco Ltd., and Peter Shea, Vice­President and Manager of Test­ing Machines International,

Concordia University, in co­operation with other Montreal­area university engineering fac­ulties, will be sponsoring Cana­da's first-ever National Young Engineers Conference on Fri­day, October 3, to examine engineering challenges and opportunities in the 21st century.

According to civil engineer­ing graduate student Milind Pimpricar, the chairman of the meeting, some 400 engineers will be joining the conference which takes place. at the Four Seasons HoteL

Those attending the confer­ence will be coining from across North America and be either in their graduating year or the first five years of their professional experience. In Canada there are more than 3,500 members of the Young Engineers Society, says Pimpri­kar, this after functioning in Canada for just two years.

"The conference is being held to celebrate the first 100 years of engineering as a pro­fession in Canada. This will be

the kick off bash for all the celebrations taking place around the country during the next year:' explains Pimprikar.

"It will also serve as a forum to enable young engineers to increase their awareness of the technical, social, moral, eco­nomic and political concerns of the world:' he adds.

Major speakers slated to speak at the conference include Frank Oberle, the federal min­ister of science and technology, Claude Ryan, provincial minis­ter of education and technolo­gy, and Jean Charest, the fed­eral minister for youth. The conference, which will be opened by rector Patrick Ken­niff, will also be addressed by the dean of Engineering, M.N.S. Swamy.

"We will ·be discussing:' con­tinues Pimprikar, "both tech­nical trends and the career opportunities which will emerge in the next century.'

Certainly one of the high­lights will be an address by NASA reseatcher Martin Mikulas. He will be talking on

"Construction techniques · and structural design concepts for civilian stations in space'.'

"We are expecting Dr. Miku­las to bring some of the design models used by NASA for this project:' says Pimprikar, who is about to complete his PhD in structural engineering.

"In the end we hope this conference will be helpful to the younger engineers in point­ing the way towards career opportunities and for them to see what developments are tak­ing place in the world outside of universities'.' A speech by the chairman of the Montreal­based SNC Group, Camille Dagenais, on "Canadian Engi­neers in the International Scene" should illustrate this facet of the conference, adds Pimprikar.

The conference will wind up with a discussion by a panel of eight industrialists, including Bernard Lamarre of Lavalin Inc., about "Career Opportu­nities for Young Engineers" in different fields of civil engi­neer~ng. There will be a ban­auet to follow. . -SWTn

And now for the latest news ... Journalism students take over C!RL's newscasts

by Frances Anonsen

B ob Rattray, CIRI..:S sta­tion manager, was in desperate need of good

quality, reliable newscasts. Journalism director Lindsay Chrysler wanted to give his department a sense that 'some­thing was happening', and Ross Perigoe, professor of a first year radio course, felt that students needed more experi­ence in the medium.

The three got together and now Journalism students are broadcasting live on CIRL Mondays through Thursdays.

From 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., you may hear Robyn Hume, Jack Bramswell, or Danielle Bonneau with the news, weather and sports.

They're all taking a course called 'Advanced Radio News', modelled after one given at Carleton University. The 12 students enrolled are responsi­ble for producing all the news­casts on CIRL. At Carleton the journalism department pays the radio station $100 for every 10 minutes of airtime.

At CIRL, Bob Rattray isn't charging a nickel.

"News is the backb'one of a radio station," he explains. ''At

CIRL our reputation for news is not the greatest. Most stu­dents who come to work here want to be D.J.s, not news­casters. Around exam time all our news people disappear."

Rattray feels the only way to get quality newscasts is to have the Journalism students do them.

I n his 20 years at · Concordia, Ken Corrigan has been versatile . in

adapting to three positions as manager of mail services, hand book-binder, ahd trouble shooter for the new telephone system.

As manager of mail for the past IO years, Corrigan is responsible for ensuring smooth delivery of external mail to and from Canada Post; of internal mail twice a day, morning and afternoon, . to some 300 ~o 400 offices in 65 buildings; and of inter-campus mail back and forth between Loyola and Sir George.

"I organize and make sure everything is out on time," reported Corrigan in an recent interview. In the morning, trucks are dispatched to Fort and St. Catherine streets, and return to Hall, Norris and Loyola mailrooms where II full­time staff sort and deliver the mail, often on foot with bags as heavy as 80 pounds. Outgoing mail is processed, weighed and stamped by meter and sent on.

A miniature of Canada Post, "Concordia Post" can be hectic if someone is absent, and other people have to alter their schedules to take on the miss­ing person's workload, Corri­gan notes.

Special courier mail, includ-

ing computer tapes, books, and laboratory . materials, is another essential service which Corrigan handles, overseeing individual deliveries across the world as far as Australia.

During -a recent year and one-half period, Corrigan worked full-time for "Telesis" as a trouble shooter, helping people to adapt to the new system. "Centrex 111" allows three-person conferences on one line, and Corrigan finds faculty apJjreciate the "call for­ward" feature which diverts incoming calls to another office or their home.

PIVOT I is designed to emu­late the operation of the Cen­trex III telephone system and intended to be used as a "stand­alone, self instructional" work station.

The Concordia group is cur­rently working on the develop­ment of a more sophisticated hardware interface unit based on "touch screen" technology that will allow users to operate the system by touching menus and graphic images of the instruments displayed on the video screen. This process will simplify the emulation consid­erably and will be used, in this case, for the highly complex Centrex III "Integrated Busi­ness Network."

The project, jointly funded by Bell Canada, Northern Tele­com and Sony of Canada and is produced by a team at

NEW BUSINESS board reserved for a represent­ative of the University's non­academic staff. Elections for the post are expected to be held shortly.

As well, the governors (i) approved the creation of a joint undertaking with John Abbott College and ICAM Technolo­gies Corporation to establish a non-profit consortium to pro­mote research and technology transfer between the public and private sectors; and (ii) autho­rized the creation of an adviso­ry search committee for the position of Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science. The current office­holder, M.N.S. Swamy, is approaching the end of his

no longer any need for two repairmen. Corrigan has not seen a Bell repairman in at least two weeks.

Taught by a Jesuit brother when an apprentice at the Graphic Arts Institute in Mont­real, Corrigan was a manager of the book-binding section of Loyola's libraries for IO years before automation and . the amalgamation of Concordia.

He continues hand book­binding as a hobby, and some­times takes a week to finish an individual order of a treasured family heirloom, sometimes a bible l,000 pages long and 100 to 150 years old.

Corrigan enjoys working with fine old rag paper which "shows its fibre in the light" and does not fade and yellow in sunlight as does' today's pulp and chemical-ridden paper.

One of 12 hand book­binders in Montreal, e orrigan taught adult education classes at Concordia until two years ago, when computer classes usurped his classroom space. Recently approached by Saidye Bronfman Center, he might resume teaching there.

Born in Montreal, a resident of Chateauguay, Corrigan and his wife, Linda, a secretary in athletics at Loyola, commute to both campuses. They have one daughter.

Playing on air waves Conference to discuss radio drama & broadcasting archives

by Simon Twiston Davies

F or aficionados a radio play can be the ultimate dramatic experience.

Listening to Hamlet, you can see in your mind's eye the battlements of Elsinore far more emphatically than could be produced by the most effi­cient Hollywood set designer. A radio play set in a submarine can have the listener rapt in the claustrophobic atmosphere of the engine room far more strik­ingly than could be created by the cleverest visual effects. Dylan Thomas's radio play, Under Milk Wood, loses much of its power when performed on stage. The scenery of the mind is the most powerful of all. Far more vivid, many would say, than can be discov­ered in any movie theatre or on television.

This Monday (29 Sept.) some 150 radio producers, researchers, artists, writers and critics from around the world will be sitting down at Concordia to take a look at the

future of their industry. As a part of this year's 50th anniver­sary celebrations of the CBC, a special emphasis will be placed on the importance of radio drama.

Attending the conference will be speakers from the U.S. Britain, France, Sweden, Chi­na and West Germany. On the Saturday of the six day confer­ence, a special highlight will be an address by M. Florian Sauvageau, co-author of the Sauvageau-Caplan Report for the federal government on the future of Canadian broadcast­ing.

The conference, a meeting of the Association for the Study of Canadian Radio and Television and the Internation­al Federation of Television Archives is co-sponsored by the Concordia Centre for Broad­casting Studies (CBS).

Sweet music Music grads do well on job market

by Simon lwiston Davies

T he story goes that if you graduate from a fine arts course, the odds are

that you will end up driving a taxi or worse. Taking a degree in engineering or business administration is the way to go, runs the myth .

Band. Two recent Concordia music grads have decided to make their musical lives in their native· Greece. Penelope Piro­caeus is the music consultant to the public school system in Athens and Nikolaus Psolakis works in Crete as a music teacher and performer. Not so, says Christopher

Jackson, the chairman of the music department. Graduates and students who have taken their _ degrees in the cramped quarters of the refectory build­ing at Loyola will almost cer­tainly end up making their living by making music.

Of course, many graduates go on to teach from one side of the country to the other. Many go on to graduate school at the likes of Cornell .or Eastman or North Texas State.

· in Montreal. cian. "I don't really consider myself just as a jazz musician, though;,.. says Lang. "I think of myself as a musician who is as rounded as I possibly can be!'

making a living. Some of them perform in string quartets or even perform for the occasion­al pop recording session which might require a string or wood­wind section.

"They are all doing some­thing in music, either going on to graduate school at places like Juillard or performing or teaching!' Jackson adds that many people are slightly skepti­cal when told that almost all Concordia music grads find work in their field.

"We give what might be called an 'alternative' type of education for our classical musicians as opposed to the conservatoire system. For a start the small size of the department and our very strong jazz performance pro­gram make us different:' says Jackson. " But don't get me wrong, we aren't a touchy-feely California type of place. There is nothing liberal about our program!'

There is also an Early Music program where sackbuts and the like have an important part. A diploma program in organ, piano, baroque flute, harpsi­chord and clarinet is a growing section of the department which attracts mainly post graduate students.

When describing the size of the department Jackson can only come up with the word "ridiculous!' There are rather more than 250 full-time equiva­lent students and just ten full­time faculty. "We are all squeezed like sardines into the Refectory Building!'

But what sort of work do these graduates end up with after their three years of scales and woodshedding at Concordia?

Fijian police band "One interesting graduate of

ours is trumpet player Eppy Naganacaki. He is now the conductor of the Fijian Police Band. He's the arranger, teach­er and just-about-everything else for them!'

Clarinetist Chris Atherley graduated not long ago and now has much the same func­tion for the Barbados Police

"Another couple of our most interesting graduates are Ronald Sylvester who is a clari­nettist with BBC Welsh Sym­phony Orchestra in Britain. Voice student Wendy Berger first took a jazz course at Concordia t-hen followed the Early Music program and now studies and works in England, where she has made a number of recordings!'

Many of the jazz students and grads remain in Montreal and most of them manage to find work on the local scene.

Some teach, others play jin­gles for a living. They're often the fellows who play those jolly tunes you hear in the commer­cials during yet another episode of Dallas.

Some contribute to their incomes by playing with the likes of the Montreal Denis Christiansen Big Band or the prestigious Vic Vogel Orches­tra. Current student Stephane Lessard is the moving force behind the Orchestre de Jazz de Montreal. And the fully pro­fessional and increasingly well known Andrew Homzy Jazz Orchestra is chock-a-block full of concordia graduates and teachers, as might be expected in a band run by a member of the University music faculty.

Others just play jazz in bars and clubs when they get the chance. They are mostly suc­cessful by jazz standards. How­ever, even "musicians" in fairly low-life punk bands without the ability to strike a chord in tune, will often take home -more money than many a fully professional jazz musician.

One graduate, tenor saxo­phonist Richard Lalonde (B. Music '81), teaches at a polyva­lent high school in the north of Monteal for his bread and butter. The cream and cookies come from 15 hours a week on the bandstand under a number of guises . He will play any­thing, he says, adding that no musician, however good he is, can make a living playing jazz

"I often work in a big band which plays Glenn Miller. I also play Top 40, anything really. I do jingles as well, when I get the chance. A lot of the time it is weddings and stuff like that, though;' says Lalonde.

Jingles most lucrative The jingles are the most

lucrative, if not the most fun, for a freelance musician, he continues. "You go in for two hours, and they give you a cheque. Every 13th time that jingle is played on the TV or radio, you get a royalty. But ye&, of course_, I would prefer to play jazz all the time!'

Drummer Geoff Lang (B. Music '81) says he makes a good living as a freelaQce musi-

Lang spends three days a week in a studio orchestra for a French variety TV show called "Casse Tete!' For the past eight years, he has sat at the traps for a co-operative quartet which performs at the likes of wed­dings and bar mitzvahs. "It's called ' 1945' and we play just about anything from small social affairs to big corporate functions !'

While the jazz musicians may well be able to turn a

i mo t of the populaF areas of the trade, the classical musicians are also out there

''All the student organists have jobs:' says Christopher Jackson, an organist and harp­sichordist himself. One exam­ple is undergraduate organ stu­dent Claude Bernier, who is the assistant organist at St. Philip's Church in Montreal West. And, of course, continues Jackson, almost everyone has private students to keep body and soul together.

Not everybody can end up running a brass bandinthc sun somewhere in the Caribbean.

Sunshine girls for Montreal? Journalism profs. question whether rumoured new English-language daily will succeed

by Stephen Puddicombe

R ay Heard, former man­aging editor of the Montreal Star at the

time of its 1979 demise, is trying to make a comeback with a new English language daily in Montreal.

Heard,. who works for Global News, said last week in an interview on CBC's morning show that the time is ripe for a second English language daily in Montreal. Heard is not the first to think this, as several other groups of investors in the past, including Quebecor pub­lisher Pierre Peladeau, have looked at the possibility of such a venture, but in the end decided it was not feasible.

"There is too great an invest­ment in starting a newspaper with not enough guarantee of an adequate return to make it worthwhile," said Journalism prof. Enn Raudsepp.

Journalism director Lindsay Crysler, however, said that if the Heard group does go ahead with the plan then they must feel that they can make money. "These are hard-headed busi­nessmen who are going in with both eyes open."

Yet, belief in the project is not enough to guarantee suc­cess. The bottom line, accord­ing to Raudsepp, is whether or not the paper can obtain the advertising revenue necessary to sustain a daily newspaper. That is why Raudsepp is scepti­cal.

The English community is well served by its weekly news­papers around the island, which carry heavy advertising. ' 'Advertisers will not spend more money for duplication of

a service," observed Raudsepp. Ad money might be available

Ross Perigoe, another Jour­nalism prof., said there are signs that the advertising money for such a daily is available. He pointed to the recent statement by the super­market chain Provigo announcing that it will publish a weekly eight-page color jour­nal of over 1 million copies. "(They) are not satisfied that

Re~ling to success Students win prizes at World Film Festival

by Simon Twiston Davies

T hey aren' t quite an Oscar or even a Genie but, nevertheless, win­

ning a prize at the Canadian Student Film Festival , a part of the M ontreal World Film Festi­val, gives great satisfaction.

For the four Concordia stu­dents who won prizes a_nd spe­cial mentions at the festival competition, comprising some 55 films, there is the possibility of making more films with even greater professionalism and originality.

Franc;ois Miron, who won a $500 prize for the best experi­mental film in the competition, describes his film as "a struc­tural film based on a mathe­matical formula of permuta­tions, computations and reoccurences of images. When all the possibilities run out, the film ends ."

Third year cinema student Miron says he is very surprised

received the $500 cheque yet. "They tell me it's in the mail," he says with a chuckle.

Cinema student Pierre M. Trudeau also carried off a $500 prize for his film, 'Ruston Kea­ter'. However, says Trudeau of his animated movie, " it doesn't change much for me because to make an animated film costs a lot more than $500. Even so, it

The silent, black and white Ruston Keater attempts to recreate some of the atmo­sphere of the movies of the classic clown Buster Keaton. Trudeau, who returns to Concordia for another year this fall, takes the characteris­tics of a Keatori film and manipulates them to fall in with his own late 20th century vision.

According to France Longtin, whose film, A Votre Service, was given a special mention by the competition jury, "the recognition should help in looking for more work, maybe in television. But, you know, I am still not quite sure that having a special mention by the jury means. Nobody seems to really know."

A day in the life of a waitress The three minute long A

Votre Service tells the story of a waitress and her inner life as she moves through her day.

"It took me about five months to put the film togeth­er. In the future I hope that I will be able to make more fiction films ," says Longtin, who is currently making "little reports" for the new Montreal French language television sta­tion, Televison Quatre Saisons .

from the festival and it was a complete surprise to me that I even got a special mention," says the third year Communi­cation Studies student.

Cinema student Jacqueline McClintock also received a spe­cial mention for her six minute film, Porter and Sabu.

The film, which cost about $3,000 and took nearly six months in the making, is about the relationship between a young girl and an old man.

"It's quite a simple story," says McClintock, who worked as a production secretary on the Burt Lancaster feature film, Barnum, this summer. "The

. old man wants to sell the house they live in and the young girl tries to discourage him. That's it. The main theme is that kids perceive more serious feelings than we give them credit for. It was an idea I have ·had for a while."

McClintock continues that the recognition from the jury has helped to encourage her in her film studies.

"It makes you feel that you must be doing something right.

It makes you want to continue. Although the film is very short, I have always felt that it could be something longer and most probably on the same theme."

McClintock, who has just graduated from the Fine Arts faculty, ~ on't be doing that quite yet , though. This fall she travels to New York City to study theatre a t the Neighbourhood School The­atre.

McClintock hadn't expected to end up getting an award from a film festival when she first came to Concordia. She started out for a year in the Commerce department, then went to Bishops and took a a BA in drama and finally returned to Concordia to take a BFA.

" I have really liked being at Concordia because of the atti­tude which allows a depart­ment to give the student some equipment and they say 'Go out and make a film'. Where else could you find that? Once you've done that, you become addicted. Truly." Oscar beckons, it would seem.

Page 6 THE THURSDAY REPORT September 25, 1986

by Simon 1\viston Davies

The men's soccer team got off to a bouncy start once again this year when they defeated UQTR 6-1 and their other performances have been just as impressive .... The Canadian Olympic soccer organisation has decided to use Concordia as their home base. Another sign of the increasing stature of Concordia soccer .... However, there has been one big disappointment. the guys and gals who gather to watch the Eastern Canadian champions, the Concordia Stingers, can only honestly be called a crowd if they cram themselves into a phone booth. Soccer has the highest spectatorship in the world, but not at Concordia, it would seem. and it doesn't even cost anything to watch the games out at Loyola .... The next home fixture, this Sunday, is against McGill -a traditional nemesis for-hopeful Quebec soccer clubs - Kick off is at 2 p.m. Get out there and see why millions of people can't be wrong.

If you're often not feeling too spry first thing in the morning as you wander into school or the office, maybe you should be thinking of a gentle work out before work begins. Just to get the old liver into shape, of course. If you need that soft shock to the system, there are aerobic fitness classes at 8 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the main gym at Loyola and at Victoria School at Sir George. "Good Morning Aerobics" runs for just 45 rejuvenating minutes .... Con U. librarian Tina Schubert leads the class downtown.

The annual Concordia road race takes place this year on October 11 at 11 a.m. Teams and individuals will be setting out from the Hall building at that time for the arduous and surely exhausting run to Loyola .... Relay teams are being organised for those of us who feel we can't run, walk or stagger much more than a block at a time, says intra-mural co-ordinator Vlad Pavlicik. "We are doing this to encourage mass participation. We don't care how many people are on a team. The more people you have, the more fun you have. The shorter distance, the· faster you run!' Registration takes place on Saturday October 11 at the Hall Building after 10 a.m. All those who complete the course will be given tickets for the afternoon football game.

New to the vagaries of Concordia sports, Kathy McDonald, reports there was a two-day meeting of all those involved irt the organisation of women's athletics a couple of weeks ago .. . Nearly a dozen people got together to talk about the support systems available for female athletes at the University. Then the users of the system (the athletes and coaches) gave a 'blast' , as McDonald calls it, to the administrators for their failures .... Over the two days, goals, priorities and solutions were passed around the forum . "We got all the junk from the past out on the table and were able to put it behind us .... Then we tried to develop a c;oaching philosophy for athletics in a university.' There was a lot more talk in much the same vein, says McDonald. There will be more half-day sessions where a "total program" balancing both varsity and intra-murals will be hammered out.

Men's Hockey coach Paul Arsenault spent a long time searching out the newcomers for this years vintage of Hockey Stingers. But it gets tougher every year, he says gloomily. "We talk to literally hundreds of potential players but most either get refused at Concordia or decide on other schools. It's worse and worse every year. We're at the stage where we are finding it difficult to compete with the other schools in our conference. · These clubs seem to be able to generate a lot more money for their programs .... Part of the problem for him is that some other schools, such as UQ at Trois Rivieres, don't have a football team to support. They can put all their resources, financial and manpower, into their hockey schedule. Concordia, suffering from chronic financial anorexia, can only just keep up. Getting back to the top of the heap is going to take more than mere goodwill .... Even so, the Stingers do get one treat this season. They're off to Europe. From Dec. 29th to Jan. 9th they'll be on a tour of Czechosloyakia_aIJd Switzerland.

SUNSHINE continued from page 4

their message is getting_ through (to the consumer)," he said.

Perigoe sees the other chains following suit which means that there are more advertising dollars to be spent. "These chains are waging a pamphlet war in my mailbox for my consumer dollar," he added.

The major fear among jour­nalists concerns the form the new paper will take if Heard's group do~s decide to go ahead. Heard told Perigoe earlier last week that the backers are both Anglophone and Francophone and very well connected. The principal backer would be the Toronto Sun, notorious for its blood-and-guts crime report­ing and its "Sunshine girl" on page 3.

"I would have a quarrel with tabloid yellow journalism," said Raudsepp, adding: "I do not think Montreal needs Sun­shine girls." (On radio, Heard denied that the paper would be like the Toronto Sun, but admitted that it would be in tabloid form.)

Indeed, most Journalism experts agree that just because the Toronto Sun will own the newspaper does not mean their formats will be the same.

Many also would welcome a new daily just to give The Gazette some competition. "Many people would like to see David take on Goliath," said Perigoe.

Healthy competition needed Raudsepp believes that a

new daily paper could provide healthy competition which has not been seen in Anglo Mont­real since the 1979 death of the Star. "Diversity of news sources is good for the public," he said.

The reason for the Heard group's interest in starting a new paper may lie with the

Faculty Footnotes :returns

The first Faculty Footnotes of this season will be for the Engineering Faculty.

Would members of the Civ­il, Electrical, Mechanical and Computer Science depart­ments, and the Centre for Building Studies with relevant information send it to: "Fac­ulty Footnotes," Room BC-219, SGW Campus before October 19.

Will The Gazette still be laughing when a new Anglo daily starts?

change of government and a general change of attitude in Quebec, according to Crysler. There is the possibility of the English language population expanding, and this would be a definite encouragement to Heard and his backers, he noted.

If the paper does start, Raudsepp said that they will have to be prepared to lose money for a while. One way to

reduce costs, he suggested, would be to -farm out printing, like Le Devoir. "The actual cost of putting out a newspaper has been greatly reduced since the days of the Star," he added.

Heard concluded his inter­view with CBC on a promising note. "If this thing (the news­paper) flies, the first thing I will do will be to call up the J our­nalism department at Concordia University."

CIRL NEWS continuedfrompage2

he says. "Writing for radio is not the same as writing English."

The students' work-day in Advanced Radio News is divided into two shifts with a minimum of three people per shift.

There's an assignment edi­tor who must pick out story ideas for the newscast. On the morning shift, work begins at 8:00 a.m. Reporters arrive a little later. They will be sent out to cover press conferences, or to do interviews. Then, there is the newsreader, responsible for selecting and writing stories.

On Mondays, the newscasts are criticized by someone work­ing in the field.

The students will be broad­casting directly from the Bryan building but difficulties have delayed the broadcasts by two weeks . Those two weeks have been spent in rehearsals.

"Everytime we go into the studio, there's a mystery," laughs Julie Charles, the teach­ing assistant for the course. "It's a question of giving it the right kick."

Charles goes on to explain that this is one of the rare courses in the department that actually gives students real experience in their field.

"We work towards a real deadline," she says. "That

makes a big difference." According to Perigoe, most

journalism graduates will at one time or another work at a radio station. He feels the course will give students direct marketable skills._

"Students are far more likely to get jobs working for radio first rather than for T. V. ," he says. "This is a chance for them to build up a portfolio."

The newscasts will be focus­ing on university news. The students have access to two wire services and have contacts with the MUC police and weather station.

"So far," says Perigoe, "about 50% of our newscasts is University news . I would have been happy with one story a day."

Students can hear CIRL in the Guadagni lounge, Oasis lounge and games room at the Campus Centre, in Hingston Hall and Langley Hall. It is also available on cable FM.

Plans for the second term could include a feature pro­gram but Perigoe will wait and see how well things work out.

"There are lots of kinks to work out throughout the term," he says. "We're just taking it one step at a time."

Rattray is ready to give them the whole year.

"But there is hope. . . more radio drama is being heard than in the past 15 years. "

continued from page 3

"We also have 10 private collec­tions from people in the world of Canadian radio drama'.' Every extant radio drama script from Halifax to Vancouver, from 1920 to the present day, is represented in some way at the Centre, says Fink.

Certainly, the researchers have travelled far and wide to discover and retrieve materials.

"The nature of radio pro­duction allows very important materials to disappear," explains Fink. "If they are preserved it is usually on fragile glass discs or just the scripts which we have found in attics, CBC basements and in private collections which have been forgotten for years and years. We even found scripts in an old barn."

Trunks of material found The barn, 40 miles outside

Toronto, may have yielded up one of the most fascinating of all the archives, says professor John Jackson, who acted as director of CBS until taking a sabbatical this year.

"We found the collected scripts of The Craigs there. They were written by Dean Hughes." The Craigs was an enormously successful 15-min­ute daily serial about the every­day lives of farming folk which ran for nearly 30 years on CBC radio until 1966. "Dean Hughes in many ways devel­oped much of the technique of writing radio drama in the same way a stage play would be written or a film script."

There were about 40 trunks of material in the Hughes find which had sat in the barn, on · the farm where the The Craigs was set, for nearly 20 years. "We in some ways were risking life and limb going in there after those trunks . Who knew what sort of infections and insects we would find there. When we got them back to Montreal we found they were indeed infected and we had to have them carefully fumigated before we could work on them."

Another recent find was a collection of all the correspon­dence between the Newfound­land Broadcasting Company and the CBC immediately prior to Newfoundland joining Con­federation. These were found in a long forgotten cupboard in the CBC building in St. John's.

. . , , . . . . ,. ' ,. ,. . .... , , , , ,

Radio drama, which in Can­ada really means drama on the CBC radio network, is in a sorry state. Both Fink and Jackson agree that the rot set in, following the golden years of 1945-60, when administra­tors rather than active broad­casters became predominant in the hierarchy of the Corpora­tion. Since the 1970s things have gone from bad to worse witlt drama taking a smaller and smaller slice of network time.

The CBC has, on the whole, abondoned the premises that radio drama should examine social issues and experimental techniques, says Fink.

"They don't have the same goals as they used to and we don't have the same kind of society. The current feeling in the CBC radio drama depart­ment is that the only way to. survive is to try to recapture the public's imagination. They think they may be able to do this by entertaining them." However, many people have complained about this, adds Fink.

In the old days there would be one-off plays written and performed more or less in a vacuum. The author would submit a play and it would be judged on its merits. The only characteristic these plays would have in common was that they were broadcast in a specific time slot. Now, the policy is to have themes and subjects whereby a writer is assigned to a topic.

Another problem is that of inserts, says John Jackson. A play is commissioned and then it will often sit on the shelf for many months and then be sliced into segments to be broadcast as a serial on Morningside, for instance. "This means that the status of radio drama is . no more than that of a time filler."

But there is hope, say both Fink and Jackson. "We think there has been a slight improve­ment. More radio drama is being heard than in the past 15 years. More is being written. Popular radio drama can bring more people in and get them used to it. The writers are also being trained once again in the techniques and language of the medium. They can then go onto more experimental dra­ma."

Wake up those creative powers People are all born with the

ability to think in original ways, but as they grow older they develop attitudes which undermine this creativity. In a rapidly changing world, gener­ating and implementing new ideas are crucial surviving skills. The ideas that served last week may not be the best sujted to solving tomorrow's prob­lems.

Olivia Rovinescu can help you regain your creative powers and originality. She will lead a Lacolle Centre workshop designed to help participants examine the blocks which imprison their creativity as well as explore techniques to enhance self expression and creative problem solving.

The workshop is open to all who wish to revitalize their creative powers. Students, teachers, those working in business, art and social service, as well as reiliees will find the workshop useful.

Rovinsecu, who is director of Concordia's Lacolle Centre, has experience in teaching peo­ple to develop their creative skills. She ' has taught such courses as "Psychology of Cre­ativity" and "Creative Problem Solving," and has an MA spe­cializing in the Philosophy of Education.

In addition to conducting workshops on such subjects as values clarification, career counselling and personal goal setting, she is one of the found­ers of Community Expres­sions, a Montreal based audio­visual company which produces educational materi­als. She is co-author of Expres­sions of Montreal's Youth, Exploring the World of Work and Words on Work.

The time of the workshop is from 7 p.m. Friday Oct. 3 to 3 p.m. Sunday Oct. 5. The cost is $85 to the general public, $65 for Concordia staff, and $45 for full-time students . For more information, call 848-4955.
