he federal government’s proposed changes to its funding of postsecondary education have raised fears that students will soon be paying a much higher proportion of education costs out of their own pocket. “The government is trying to present these reforms of programs as being progressive, but they are actually very regressive in terms of increasing tuition fees,” says Guy Caron, chairpcrson of the Canadian Federation of Students. “Tuition fees could double by 1996-97.” Human Resources Minister Lloyd Axworthy’s social-security review suggests that Ottawa replace direct cash transfers to the provinces for postsecondary education with a new system of income-contingent loans to students. Cash payments make up about $2.6 billion of the total $8 billion Ottawa spends on postsecondary education each year. Provinces would likely be forced to increase tuition fees, or even deregulate the system completely and allow universities to set their own tuition rates. Kitchener Liberal MP John

English, a history professor at U of W before his election, observes that with cash transfers as a percentage of total funding predieted to run out within the next decade, an expanded loans systern may a way to ensure continued accessibility. “The country is facing a pretty severe financial crisis, so I can’t imagine that tuition wouldn’t go up anyway,” he says. “If we had a fairer tax sys“Tuition tern it would be different, but given the sociand by 1996-97. ety economy we have, this is a workable option in terms of fairness.” Caron, in fact, insists that the focus should be on making the tax system fairer. Rather than shift the burden of paying for education to students, he says, the government should look at reforming the tax system to maximize revenues. Mike Burns, Executive Director ofthe Ontario Undergraduate Student Alliance (OUSA) warns that reducing government fUnding to universities will seriously damage the postsecondary education system in Canada.

lasses with hundreds, maybe thousands of students; tuition at astronomical levels; program choice and location dictated by the government; an increase of video lectures; zero university autonomy. These are the catastrophes that may be implemented by the Ontario government if they follow the proposals from the Ontario Council of University Affairs (OCUA) with their “new and improved” funding models. A discussion paper entitled Sustaining Quality in Changing Times, Funding Ontario Universities is causing serious concerns among the Ontario university community. Fearing that the discussion paper is really a serious proposal from the government, student groups, university administrations, and faculty associations are actively opposing a number of the options presented. If the universities cannot influence the council and change its recommendations, this paper will be the basis from which the province revamps the current funding system for post-secondary edu-

“They’re talking about taking money out of the system when we should have more money going into it. It is going to be very difficult for a system that has already experienced great instability to support more students coming in.” he says. “Less govemment funding means quality will go down and access will erode.” Much of the debate centres around whether income-continfii&,~

Caron, warns that for the program to be self-financing the minimum level of income required for repayment would gradually fall, and interest rates would increase. “I don’t think that is accessible. We’re asking students to pay off loans until they’re grandparents. It will be a deterrent,” he says. English says those concerns could be met through expanded bursaries to help those with the most need. “The loans could be accom-

Our focus will be that governments have to maintain, and increase, their level of funding. That seems unlikely. Throughout the social security review discussion paper, Axworthy stresses the need to reduce government spending in all areas.

With much self congratulation, numerous Laurier officials and spokespersons recounted the university’s accomplishments, and stressed how different the uni-

At one point Dr. Barry McPherson remarked that professors are expected to not only “disseminate” knowledge, but also actively “acquire and create” that knowledge base. Chair of the Student Union, Steve Doak, commented on the demand for universities to become more accountable and the need for students to be better prepared on a global competitive evel. He said that universities If ave certain goals, and that the OCUA document does “pose a threat to the ability ofuniversities to accomplish those goals.” Students are not just con,sumers, says Doak.

The injection of BGH causes cows to experience an increase in infections, infertility and lactational failure. Because of increased infections, cows on BGH are treated with high levels of antibiotics, which can be passed along to humans through milk consumption.

Although Monsanto is pushing to sell this expensive product internationally, it does not deny any of these side-effects. In fact, on the product label itself Monsanto has warned that BGH causes a higher incident of “cystic ovaries and disorders of the uterus, reduced pregnancy rates and premature calves, high body temperature unrelated to illness, andvisibly abnormal milk.” The Bovine Growth Hormone has the potential to affect every consumer of milk in Canada, as well as the health of dairy cows, unborn babies, and the livelihood of dairy farmers. Not approving BGH, though, might mean a multinational pharmaceutical company losing a major investment. The Natural Living group of WPIRG is currently active in the BGH issue.

Overconsumption, not Overpopulation by Greg Imprint

Hood-Morris staff

here is only one serious threat to life on earth as we know it. As the population of the world increases, the supply of usable natural resources dwindles. This is an obvious’statement, ie: the more people there are, the more resources are required. A common equation used by experts in this field to determine this level of consumption versus population is called IPAT. The IPAT equation is thus: the impact on the environment is equal to thepopdufion multiplied by the level ofaJj7uence, multiplied by the i&~~oi~g-y employed in a given area. If any of these factors are raised, so is the impact on the environment. If there is greater technology, then there will be greater affluence and more industry, and vice versa. The depletion of resources can come about through two means. The first is the overconsumption of our non-renewable resources, such as minerals and fossil fuels, The second is the pollution and degradation of our seemingly renewable resources, such as air and water. Also, some of what we classify as renewable resources, such as Virgin forest such as those in Clayoquot sound in B.C., really ought to be reclassified, since they take so long to regenerate themselves, if ever. It is the pollution of our rcnewable resources that is a direct product of the IPAT equation. In looking for reasons for environmental degradation, especially in the third world, most people would look to population expansion as the rea-

son, mostly ignoring the affluence, and technology parts of the equation. This is an obvious fallacy. Affluence and technology are, in reality, more important factors than mere population in creating an environmental problem. The Northem Hemisphere consumes seventy percent of the world’s energy, seventy-five percent of the world’s metals, eighty-five percent of the world’s wood, and sixty percent of the food. Compare this with the fact that the North only contains one-billion people, whereas the South contains four and a half billion people. We can conclude then, that the North uses twenty times more resources per person, than the South, generating twenty times as much waste. Therefore, it is overconsumption, not population, which is the prime cause of resource depletion. Which isn’t to say, of course, that over-population isn’t a problem in the third world, and even here, because it obviously is, One needs only to look into any of the world’s large cities to see the problems attributed to overpopulation. However, the population of the South would have to multiply itself twenty times before it reached the level of consumption of the North. This obviously cannot happen. Canada really has no right to blame anybody but ourselves for the present ecological crisis. Per capita, Canada uses the most energy in the entire world. Before we can begin pointing to the Southern hemisphere as the ‘prime cause of environmental degradation, we must start cleaning up our own act.

ctober is Breast Health Awareness Month. In recognition of this, the Canadian Cancer Society is having Dr. Louise Liao, the research director of the Canadian Breast Cancer Research Initiative, speak at the Waterloo Inn on Tuesday, October 18. In addition, there will be displays and a hands-on clinical breast self examination teaching session. The master ofceremonies will be Canine Grespan of CKCO-TV News. The day starts at noon with a luncheon (tickets are $15.00) and continues until 9 p.m. . The Canadian Cancer Society provides many services for cancer patients. They offer one-on-one visits with cancer victims and their families. These visits can take place wherever needed, whether that is at home or in hospitals. The Society offers financial aid to some victims. Financial assistance with drugs, medical equipment, supplementary foods, and Iodgings for family members required to assist in treatments. Almost 50% of the money raised by Ithe Canadian Cancer Society goes to the National Cancer Institute of Canada, which uses the money toI fund various research projects across thecountry. In 199495, $2.7 million went to researchers investigating breast cancer. In addition to this, a new group called The Canadian Breast Cancer Initiative, which is a partnership between the Canadian Cancer Society, the National Cancer Institute of Canadzk, The Medical Research Council of Canada and Health Canada distributed grants of $6.8 million to 24 breast cancer projects. The provincial government is also helping out in the fight against breast cancer. Health Minister Ruth Grier announced on Tuesday that the province is funding an expansion of the Ontario Breast Screening Program. $500,000 has been allotted to fund centres in Owen Sound, Guelph, Pdterborough, Renfrew/Pembroke, Sault Ste. Marie and Cam’bridge. It is hoped that 6,000 additional women a year will be able to get breast cancer screenmgs. “I’m very happy to be able to announce these new centres will increase breast cancer screening through the OBSP by ten percent.” said Grier. “Early detection goes a long way toward avoiding more severe problems down the road.” The program, established in 1990, has found cancer in 1% of all women screened.

(Tuition fees currently cover about 25% of total costs.)

He does not believe predictions of tuitidn doubling in two years are realistic. “We have to make sure universities have enough resources, and that programs are sustainable,” he says. The university would much prefer to continue to receive most of its funding from government grants, rather than from tuition fees, says Jim Kalbfleisch, Vice President - Academic and Provost at U of W. “This would create a great deal of uncertainty and would put an additional burden on students, which we’d prefer to avoid,” he explains. Under the government’s proposals, federal money would be used to make or guarantee loans to individual students. Access to tuition loans would not depend on any needs assessment.

Laurier’s President, Dr. Lorna Marsden finished offlaurier’s presentation by stressing that, like the government, Laurier is concerned with fairness and accessibility, but teaching and research are complimentary activities, and the highest priority for any university has to be providing an excellent education The session ended with a gcnera1 question period. However, instead of Laurier asking the OCUA questions about intentions or methodology, the focus shifted to Laurier. Repeatedly asking about procedures, levels of decision making, and the amount of community relations, the OCUA delegates appeared more interested in Laurier justifying its current level of accountability. OCUA also met with representatives from UW on Thursday morning. The results of that meeting were unavailable at press time.

Turning to the main focus of Laurier’s criticisms, Berczi had only criticism for Model “C.” Completely replacing the current funding system, model C would separate teaching and research, with the government allocating funds for either one or the other. Currently, individual universities decide how to spend the government money they receive. Berczi called the government “presumptuous” to assume that they know how the money should be divided better than the universities. He also pointed to the shifting priorities of governments and the problems of a single centralised bureaucracy as reasons why the government should not have a direct say in running universities. This model also involves the universities drawing support by

in loans and grants provided through the Canada Student Loans program. The government also allows for the possibility that some provinces would opt out of and run their own similar programs, as Quebec does under the current system. The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Human Resources Development will be holding public hearings prior to any legislation to be introduced next year. Telegdi says he has been in touch with administration and student representatives from U of W, Laurier, and Conestoga College and plans to hold a series of consultations within a month. “I strongly encourage students to talk to their student representatives... and meet with their Members of Parliament,” urges Burns. “We have to be discussing these proposals so we can come up with a system that will benefit both the government and students.”

continued from page 3 funds to. Laurier’s Dean of Graduate Studies and Research, Dr. Barry McPherson, responded strongly to this. He strcsscd that universities are vital for their role in “the creation of knowledge.” He also asked if an emphasis on teaching will necessarily bring about an increase in learning. He speculated that students spending more hours in the classroom might only resu It in more “force feeding” students, more recycling of knowledge, and more regurgitation by the students later on rather than an increase in quality. Dr. Andrew Berczi, Laurier’s Vice-president, Academic, responded directly to the 3 models proposed in the OCUA document. The first model, “A,” is very similar to the current model of bulk funding, but would set “program enrolmcnt priorities.” It would not affect how much money the province gives to universities, instead increasing the number of reviews for each university’s tinding. Noting that it allows for addressing “past inequalities” in funding,

Firing Line

anada’s identity is ultimately based on a desire to respect other cultures -- thus our fiercely egalitarian social programs and our unique dedication to multiculturalism. However the same ideals that bring about those policies almost necessarily force us into rcspccting one form of cultural relativism or another. It’s difficult to say that you respect another culture, and then force them to adapt the social conventions of another society. At the same time, your society obviously has certain limits and “that’s the way we do it hack home” isn’t good enough to justify murder or any similar act. Ironically, our desire to respect other cul turcs and stamp out racism at the same time can be mutually exclusive. It may not be possible to do both. Racism in this country is not limited to backwater rednecks, and the Heritage Front. It exists in first generations Tndians who have brought with them remnants of their home country’s caste system. India’s caste system is one of the most vile and ignoble social arrangements practiced by any state. This systematic prejudice against a group of people is more pervasive than South A rrica’s apatiheid was and makes Canada’s wrangles with multiculturalism seem laughable. The caste system is an unspoken, but rrrlivcrsnlly recognized and undcniablc inheritcd socio-religious rank that has been in practicc in the Hindu religion for over 4,000 years as a method by which the darker Dravidian races were separated by light-skinned northcm Indians. Off-shoots of Hinduism such as Sikhism cngagc in similar practices. There arc four different castes, each one representing a traditional profession: the priests (brahmans), the warriors (kshatriyas), the businessmen (vaishyas) and the artisans (sudras.) There are millions of Hindus, however, who are born outside the caste system; untouchables who are doomed to spend their entire lives in appalling subservience, treated like filth. Hindus will usually not touch food in the sight of an untouchable and a Brahman will try and purify himself with hours of prayer if he is touched by one. Such an antiquated social system no doubt seems as foreign as slavery to us, and well it should. Canada, with more cause than many other nations, prides itself on its multicultural foundation, yet this caste system is alive and well among practicing Hindus and Sikhs in Canada. Personally, I’ve been to well over 100 weddings; from my own sister’s to friends of friends of distant, distant, distant relatives. All of my relatives were of the same caste and the marriages themselves were between people of the same caste. My relatives are not ignorant people. Most of them are intelligent and friendly, but the idea of having their son or daughter marry outside their caste, even though they live here in Canada is as foreign as having their son or daughter marry a rock or a tree. My point here is that racism is not some alien, fiendish thing that is easily identified. It is a pervasive and subtle thing, that many ofus are unaware of. If Canada wishes to form some sort of identity, it must make a decision as to whether or not it wants to let other cultures exist, warts and all, or whether we want to adhere to ideals that it considers universal. It cannot do both.

Therapeutic Feminism and the Parking Lot affair “Good taste and humour m-e a contrudiction in terms, like a chaste whore. ” - Malcolm Muggeridge andy Atwal’s last column prompted my most recent exploration of what Doug Mann terms “therapeutic feminism.” For the uninitiated, therapeutic feminism refers to certain feminists whose feminism is bound up in their own psychological problems in dealing with gender relations. In Atwal’s column “The Parking lot is empty” he referred to another column that had been written by Jeff Zavitz. Atwal’s comment about the article’s offensive generalization of men piqued my curiosity and I dug up a past issue of Imprint and read “The Monster Within.” This article provides an excellent example of how therapeutic feminism is bound up in the psychological dysfunction of its adherents. As a man. I am the first to admit my potential for evil deeds (such as rapej, and I believe that this potential lies as a seed within every male (and human being). What separates Zavitz from the average male is, apparently, his closeness to the brink of committing the act. Reading the article, one cannot avoid the impression that Zavitz is indeed close to the brink. He states that he is “breathing visibly” and that “horror” is assuming form around him. He is “driven by lacking” and pictures a lone woman trapped in an empty room. You don’t get much closer to the edge of committing rape than Zavitz’s description of his own state of mind. There is one fact we should keep in mind. It is Zavitz’s proximity to committing the act that separates him from most fairly typical men. Although he should be applauded for hon-

ouring his conscience, and his article gives ample evidence of one, he can in no way represent most men who have never felt on the verge of rapt. What is fascinating is thenon-existent response to his column, non-existent save one case outright praise for his public confession. Perhaps this is because one man, who happened for a fleeting time in his life to be ill, fits so well the perverted view that some feminists have of men. As for Zavitz’s suggestion that his article be reprinted, the only

Stifling the freedom of our school newspaper in the shadowy corridors ofpower. l

suitable forum for the article is a psychotherapy group. Zavitz certainly is not unique in experiencing psychological crises (I ‘ve made use of counselling services) and I hope that he doesn’t take my last suggestion in a negative light. The latest annals of therapeutic feminism brings us the public furore over the Parking Lot cartoonHere we have the likes of people like Pat Apelvich, Matt Wood, Jennie Ormson, Kevin Miller and even Zavitz expressing their indignant outrage against this latest anti-woman cultural atrocity. Their indignant cries finally motivated me to go

back a few issues and read the cartoon. Upon surveying the offending piece I am left with one question. Where, pray tell, is the suggestion in this cartoon that women should endure-as Jennie Ormson put it-sexual torture at the hands of men? Clearly., the comic suggests that a very prudent girlfriend has locked her perverted boyfriend outside the door. 1 don’t, however, think anyone can seriously interpret this strip as an approval of sadistic sex. This is not to say that the comic isn’t in bad taste-it is. Oh what a different world this would be if our feminist crusaders focused their sensitivities to real issues in the world-like abusive work environments that denigrate women! Why doesn’t Ormson say something about job ghettos (restaurants, etc.) that aggressively place women into the category of second class citizens, or certain business owners who have outs&nding charges of sexual harassment levelled at them. I’ll bet she hasn’t even noticed. The only criticism I have of Sandy Atwal is that he panicked when confronted with the war cries of the polititally correct. These types of people are always conducting a wai dance within our democratic society. They will not rest until beneath the circled wagons of the last free institutions, the last free minds lie dead or slain. Whether the issue concerns the destructive effect of “official multiculturalism” on our continually fragmented and disintegrating society or just simply the assaults of therapeutic feminists on “men,” rest assured that these people will conduct their tired old ideological war. Imprint should take them in stride. continued

Lot

To the Editw, 1 would like to concur with Jeff Zavitz’s statement in his letter to the editor (Oct. 7/94) made in regards to the controversial “The Parking Lot...” comic that appeared in the Sept. 23 issue of Imiprint. He said “ . . . to label the offensive ‘comic’ that appeared in the Forum on September 23, a ‘work’ is to overstate its importance as cultural criticism or satire.” I wrote my previous letter concerning this comic because I have always considered “The Parking Lot. . . ‘( to be of poor quality. The Sept. 23 comic was the last straw. Not only was this rip-off of the “The Far Side” bad, it was extremely offensive. Perhaps my opening statement to the “Parking Lot People” should have read, “Since when is a blatant attempt at sensationalism and controversy a substitule for true artistic and literary talent?” Granted, the fact that I even bothered to respond to the comic shows that it had some impact on me. However, I think the extent of the impact was to turn something that was formerly merely annoying into something that was now in extremely bad taste. Sandy’s editorial defence of his choice to print the comic was predictable and dissapointing. I don’t think that the issue at stake here is freedom of speech. The issue is artistic and editorial responsibility. J know that many artists consider their role to be to con-

stantly question and test the limits of social convention. However, if the artist is to have any hope of his work being taken seriously by that society that he is trying to reach, it behooves the artist to use good taste and good judgement in the presentation of his/her material. This is true for anyone trying to make a statement. Consider, for example, two approaches to the issue of abofiion. One man in Florida makes an antiabortion statement by shooting a number of people who perform abortions. He claims that it was “justifiable homicide” because the abortionists were killers themselves. Another person makes an anti-abortion statement by making the public aware of the trauma suffered by most women after they have had an abortion. Or better yet, they make a pro-life statement by educating the public on the advantages of adoption. Which statement will be more effective in creating useful discussion on the issue at stake? It seems that the killing of the doctors will draw attention away from abortion and instead people will discuss just how screwed up anti-abortionists are. The latter examples seem like they will be effective in promoting rational discussion on alternatives to abortion; which is exactly what the statement was meant to do. What I’m trying to say is, the “Parking Lot . . .” comic was its own worst enemy because of the crude way in which the message was delivered. Mr. Nesbitt, thank you for the thorough insult to my intelligence in your letter last issue. Let me give you some friendly advice. Good

Ponder, the political circus that the parking lot affair has instigated. This circus has distracted us from important issues and cast the shadow of unethical conduct on some of the characters involved. This is one of the latest contributions to a world of social justice brought by the rasping, discordant voices of “therapeutic feminism.” Atwal had to waste a whole column trying to defuse the critics. He wrote that this incident has taught him about the “limits on what one considers freedom” confirming what many of us already suspectthat he possesses a strong ethical sense (note his revulsion of corrupt politicians). As evidenced from this and other responses to the cartoon controversy, Atwal should have realized that a large number of us did not think an apology was warranted. Giving an apology for every little politically incorrect bobo wouldn’t leave much of a newspaper. As for Jeff Couckuyt and Pete Nesbitt, their bowing to the winds of our new politically correct commissars was even more pathetic. Why

Here is a paper that a fish couldn’t bear to be wrapped in. Aside from the comic relief provided by the Gazzete’s exploitation of the scandal, rumours of Downey’s intervention strike a slightly sinister note. Apparently, it is even rumoured that Sally Gunz was present at Downejl’s dressing down of Imprint’s editor. Let me explain why I don’t believe this persistent rumour. Downey’ s intervention would violate the very standards he seeks to defend: standards of ethical conduct. This kind of intervention is entirely inappropriate for the president of a university and casts a pall on the dignity of his office. How could the president of a university stoop so low as to give undue attention to one comic strip that may have been in bad taste? How could the president of a university intervene in the functioning of a newspaper that students support with their fees? Stifling the freedom of

humour is based on a paradigm shift. Here’s how it works: Present people with a situation that gets them thinking on one level. Then follow that up with a punchline that allows them to see the situation in a whole new light. Here’s a classic example from Steve Martin: “I can still remember sitting in a darkened theatre with my arm around 17-year-old Mary Jo Rasmussen, trying to get to first base. ‘I even remember the name of the movie: The Lion King.” I didn’t give up when I saw the dildo Mr. I&bitt, I just thought your joke was limp. I am not any more in favour of theImprint turning into “some stagnant tepid cesspool of political correctness” than you are. I just think that the issues that you tried to address could have been addressed in a much more intelligent, creative fashion. That reminds me, I laughed out loud at your mockery of my presumption to be a voice of reason. Now that was finely executed humour.

strips are notorious for), but also eliminates the dynamic spirit of a newspaper where sometimes dangerous ideas that can be entertained. Does Downey really want to see the Imprint become like the Laurier’s Co&? I don’t think so. As for Sally Gunz, I simply refuse to believe she could engage in conduct that so obviously departs from basic ethics, Would these people condone the intervention (on the behalf of a few) of a free press frotn some shadowy corridor of power? Certainly not. These days, too much attention is devoted to the rantings of therapeutic feminists. Surely more pressing problems lie on the horizon such as sexual harassment. I would like to hear more student response about a government agenda that recently leaked to the press. This agenda calls for tuition fees to double, and the repayment of loans to become income contingent. It doesn’t take a high IQ to figure out the threat to a democratic society, when access to information bases such as the university become the preserve of the privileged.

obert Redford’s new film&it Show, raises some timely questions about the nature of Television. Thirty-five years ago a scandal revolving around the Q&A show Twenty-One erupted when it was found out that the show’s producers were feeding contestants the answers . They wanted to manipulate the outcome of the show to keep the audience returning so that the ratings would remain high and the sponsor would remain happy. Executives at Geritol and NBC were very happy as profits for both soared. Unfortunately a former contestants was not so happy, causing an investigation by the federal government that destroyed the game show’s credibility. Columbia University instructor Charles Van Duren, the son of a prominent intellectual family blows an easy question, much to the dismay of the show’s producers, he is offered a $50,000 salary to become the cultural correspondent on the Today show along with Dave Garroway and J. Fred Muggs, a chimpanzee. The relative innocence of the young TV industry is long gone, but the idea of the tube as teacher is with us stronger than ever. In Southern Ontario there is a plethora of educational TV, English and French CBC, TVO, Chaine-Francais and U.S. services; The Learning Channel and various PBS affiliates. This multitude of choices constitutes a feast for a fat and bloated public. In his 1985 book, Amusing Ourselves To Death, Public Discuurse in the Age of Show Business, educator and McLuhan disciple Neil Postman posits that TV is acompletely ineffectual tool for education. The nature of the medium of TV is discontinuity. Lack of context reigns supreme. Critical thought and interactive discussion are in no way part its aesthetic. Postman likens TV to that of a vaudeville show in a vacuum tube. True enlightenment is not

possiblem through TV’s language of image and icon. Visuals always win out over speech or text, whichr@,e always subservient. The fleeting visual image is quickly forgotten by our brain. Meaningful education can only occur through the written word, where linear, linked thought can be eloquently expressed to form an argument or opinion. In the disjointed and momentary realm of TV, ordered thought is impossible. Everything on TV is reduced to entertainment, whether it is educational or news programming. This is done through rapid fire edits and accompanying music. The medium of TV thus shapes the content of all its programs as entertainment. A pertinent question then, is what is the provincial government through TV0 and the federal government through the CBC doing in the entertainment business? The CBC receives about one billion dollars in tax money a year to support Canadian culture that is not much more than special interest entertainment. CBC must decide what it wants to be. Is it ari elitist organization atternpting to be a mirror to a public that is disinterested in its goods? Or should it be honest and realize it is primarily a vehicle for entertainment of businesses like pro sports. At least CBC radio has a vocal if however small audience to sings its chorus of praise. Ontario’s TV0 is another story altogether. Originally a service to support the schools, it metamorphosed into an ersatz PBS North that hardly anyone watches. Taxpayers support this black hole to the tune of $85 million a year. With governments reaIizing that major cutbacks in expenditures are inevitable, can we subsidize these luxuries any longer? It is time to realize that educational television is an oxymoron that we can’t afford. Television is a product that better serves the public when market forces regulate the outcome. Satellite technology offers TV to anyone, anywhere at anytime. While the CBC could and should change, it is time to put useless agencies like TV0 out to pasture for good.

Violence by Stephen Younge special to Imprint

hen I read it in the newspaper the other day, I felt a sort of sick familiarity wash over me: another couple frotn Quebec was beaten up in Florida. Not robbed -just battered enough that emergency hospital treatment was necessary. Florida isn’t quite the ideal tourist destination for snowbirds that it used to be. What the hell is happening to American and, to a much lesser extent Canadian, society? It seems that it’s descending into a dystopian hell of violence, intolerance, hate and anger. Many people have always felt that society is going downhill or “to the pits.” This belief is usually based on a pessimistic view of the future and the present, and a nostalgic view of the past. However, nluch evidence seems to suggest that society is indeed entering a very ugly phase, because more people are brutally victimized or killed than ever behe. This fact is less terrible than two others which immediately callow: that people arc being nlurdered for senseless reasons, and that society in general has come to see such deaths as routine. We have always had psychopathic killers and we have always treated them as celebrities. Now, however, record numbers of people are murdering for reasons as petty as they “felt like it,” somebody annoyed them, or they were angry. In another incident in Florida, a man accidentally struck and wounded a pedestrian with his car. He was shot to death by bystanders. Many sources of blame are sought by

in America

those lamenting the increase in violence: racial intolerance, violent television, the proliferation of guns and, of course, drugs. However, all these factors have been present for decades whereas the dramatic rise in senseless violence - killing for the hell of it - is a rather recent phenomenon. Perhaps the insanity, for only insanity can prompt someone to shoot his neighbour because he was “pissing him off,” is merely a manifestation of the stresses our society is going through as it undergoes dramatic changes. One wonders if there was a similar state of affairs at the dawn of the Industrial

well-being of their child? How much damage is done to the children’s judgement and morals by having only part-time parents who are unwilling to commit their lives to their growth? No doubt that the incredible proliferation of firearms in the United States is responsible for much of the carnage. However, the gun is just a facilitator or catalyst; the violent sentiment of Kill Thy Neighbour was not planted in the minds of many Americans by cheap weapons and ammunition. It merely makes it much more convenient and easy to kill.

The media and entertainment industries, which routinely bombard us with images of incredible violence, cannot be blamed as they are simply reflections of society. They show us what we want to see, no matter how terrible Kevolution. Perhaps ouresc4ating problems are the death throes of a dying social organization. Or perhaps the rise of this insanity is simply due to inadequate parenting. l-low much of our social problems can be blamed on absentee parents who place their careers, their finances, and their toys above the social

The media and entertainment industries, which routinely bombard us with images of incredible violence, cannot be blamed as they are simply reflections of society. They show us what we want to see, no matter how terrible. Although I turned off the television in disgust when 1 discovered that network television was going to make a live special of

the O.J. Simpson car chase, many continued watching throughout the night. I don’t know why, perhaps for some incomprehensible reason, it mattered. Many critics have panned the movie Natural Born Killers, Oliver Stone’s look at modern society, as being an orgy of senseless violence. I was surprised and almost sickened by the violence in the movie. However, the movie critics fail to notice that many other films have more violence in them. What truly disturbs the critics about Natural Born Killers is the senseless, useless violence, rather than traditional “acceptable” violence such as the death of the Bad Guy or a Bad Guy blowing up a car. This traditional sort of violence doesn’t even register on the brain. However, inNatural Born Killers, it isn’t the Bad Guy who gets blow away, it’s the innocent waitress who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The critics are appalled that people are being killed who don’t re.ally Deserve to Die. Across the United States it isn’t the Bad Guys who are being wasted; it is innocent people. In this way, Natural Born Killers is a masterpiece because it can disturb our violence-sodden minds and encourage us to think, Fortunately, Canada seems to be in less rapid descent than our American neighbours. More importantly, I believe that one can be optimistic despite the increasing insanity and chaos; if you look around you will see that the vast majority of people are sane, normal individuals. This love affair with senseless and useless violence, must be temporary. It either represents the end of the industrial age or a fad that we can hopefully leave behind in the 20th Century.

Does HIV by Sandy Atwal Craig Nickerson Imprint staff

and

“It is concluded that HIV is not sufficient to cause AIDS because HIV meets neither Koch’s postulates nor established epidemiological, biochemical, genetic, and evolutionary criteria of a viral pathogen. Further, it is concluded that HIV may not even be necessary for AIDS because there is neither biochemical nor genetic evidence that it initiates or maintains AIDS. HIV infiltration and activity are just as low in symptomatic as in asymptomatic carriers. The association between AIDS and antibody HIVnow part of the definition of AIDSdoes not prove causation because otherwise indistinguishable diseases are now set apart on the basis of this antibody.” - Peter H. Duesberg, from “Human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome: Copelation but not Causation” in Proceedings of the hhtionul Acadony of Sciences of the United States of America, February 1984, Volume 86, Number 3.

hen HIV was first dis covered in 1984, AIDS researcher Robert Gallo announced that the cause of AIDS had been found. The U.S. government officially endorsed this view immediately, with no further testing. Secretary of Health and Human Services Margaret Heckler promised an AIDS test within six months and a vaccine within two years. We have yet to find a vaccine and still do not know exactly how HIV does what it is supposed to do. Gallo had at first believed that HIV destroyed the immune system by directly destroying the T-Cells. He flatly rejected the findings of Luc Montagnier, the man who first discovered HIV, which suggested that HIV worked in tandem with other co-factors to cause AIDS. Gal10 maintained, and many agreed, that HIV was sufficient to cause AIDS. A decade later Gallo has changed his views in light of what has been discovered, yet he maintains that HIV is still the primary cause of AIDS though other co-factors are necessary to result in or speed up the development of AIDS, In 1989 the influentialProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences published a highly controversial paper concerning the relationship between HIV and AIDS. Peter Duesberg, an expert on retroviruses at the University of Califomia, challenged the claim that HIV was either the sole or even a necessary factor in causing AIDS. Further, Duesberg argues that any significant threat posed by HIV, when isolated from the co-factors present in high risk groups, has yet to be established. Duesberg concludes that “AIDS prevention efforts (should) be concentrated on AIDS risks rather than on the trans-

mission of HIV.” Duesberg’s claims have been met with hostility and charges of irresponsibility from the majority of the medical community. However, several researchers and scientists with similar views have stepped foreword and an organization known as the Group for the Scientific Reappraisal of the HIV/AIDS Hypothesis has been formed. The view that HIV might not cause, nor represent the significant factor in, the development of AIDS has currently been receiving more public attention. This month, MASON has published an article entitled Whut CausesAlDS?The article is written by three members of the Scientific Reappraisal group including Kary B. Mullis who won the Nobel Prize in chemistry last year for his work on the detection of HIV fragments in AIDS patients. The article outlines several reasons for challenging the official theory that HIV causes AIDS. First, HIV is a ‘*conventional retrovirus with a very simple genetic structure” and researchers still cannot explain how such a virus damages the immune system. In its early stages, HIV behaves much the same way that other viruses do. There is no longer any argument that HIV multiplies rapidly, is sometimes accompanied by a flu like illness and is then reduced to negligible levels by the host’s immune system. If HIV does destroy the immune system, it does so long after it has been reduced to its smallest quantity within the host. Another reason to challenge the more orthodox view of HIV and AIDS is that, in the absence of knowledge as to how HIV causes AIDS, the only reason to suppose it does is the correlation between HIV and AIDS. However, this correlation is an imperfect one. There are cases of persons who exhibit the symptoms of AIDS who do not have HIV infection. There are also cases of HIV infected persons who, after a decade, still show no signs of AIDS. The apparently strong correlation between HIV and AIDS may have a great deal to do with the way in which AIDS is defined. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) defines AIDS as a combination of one or more of thirty previously known and independent diseases plus a positive result on a test for HIV antibodies. If any of these diseases are detected and the HIV test proves negative, then the condition is not defined as AIDS. In fact, ICL (Idiopathic CD4+Lymphocytopenia) is a name that the CDC has recently invented to describe a condition which is identical to AIDS except for a negative HIV antibody result. This has several

implications.

First, if there is a causal relationship between HIV and AIDS then HIV should be present in every AIDS patient. If we define AIDS with HIV as a component, then we assume rather than prove a causal

relationship and make a close correlation between HIV and AIDS inevitable. Further, this may skewer statistics as many persons who could have exhibited symptoms of ICL might very well have been assumed to be infected with the HIV virus, the AIDSKL distinction has only been made recently. In the United States, there is also a great deal of incentive for doctors and health departments to diagnose patients with AIDS rather than ICL or simply as having one of the component diseases of AIDS without HIV. The Ryan White Act insures that the medical expenses of persons with AIDS are covered, but those who have similar or identical illnesses while remaining HIV negative do not have their expenses covered. The claimed correlation between HIV and AIDS is flawed at an even more basic level. Even if the AIDS test, which tests for antibodies which react to HIV, were administered in every case, the results would be questionable as the test itself is unreliable. Papers in both Bio/Technology and the Journal of the American Medical Association have shown that the tests are not standardized and give many “false positives” because they react to substances other than HIV antibodies. Even if this were not the case, the tests at best confirm the presence of antibodies and not the virus itself, much less the virus in an active, replicating state. Antibodies typically indicate that the body has fought off a viral infection, and they may persist long after the virus itself has disappeared from the body. Since it is often difficult to find the live virus even in the bodies of patients who are

dying of AIDS, Gallo and others have had to speculate that HIV might cause AIDS even when it is no longer present in the body and only the antibodies are left. Finally, predictions based on the assumption that the HIV hypothesis is correct have turned out to be false. It was predicted that AIDS would spread beyond high risk groups and into the general population as HIV infections spread out into the general population. However, new cases of AIDS in North America still remain primarily confined to drug users and homosexual men in urban areas. Those who have contracted HIV through tainted blood transfusions are in low risk groups and do not develop AIDS at a fraction of the rate of those who are in high risk groups. It is often argued that cases of HIV and AIDS are reaching epidemic portions in Africa and that, as over half are women, we are all still at equal risk in North America. However these statistics are extremely malleable as accurate HIV testing is not widely available in Africa. This means that those who die of diseases that have long been common there, such as “wasting disease” accompanied by diarrhea, are now assumed to have had HIV and thus died of AIDS. Duesberg’s report in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences states that as of February 1989, about 10% of the 30 million people in Zaire have been reported to be antibody-positive since 1985. However, only 335 AIDS cases had been reported in Zaire as of 1988. Today, many scientists are theorizing that AIDS is a multifactorial, synergistic disease. This means that several factors might be involved and thus focus-

ing research attention on one factor in which the role might possibly be negligible, namely HIV, is a misuse of time and money. These scientists are proposing that the emphasis be placed on controlling high risk behaviour such as drug use, unprotected anal sex as well as on nutrition and sanitation in order to help prevent AIDS. Furthermore, they propose that the individual diseases that comprise AIDS be treated separately rather than placing emphasis solely on trying to stop HIV. Since, according to Duesberg, there is no proven mechanism of HIV treatment, exploring the HIV hypothesis is not a rationalbasis for the control of AIDS. Thus, the treatment of symptomatic and even asymptomatic HIV carriers with azidothymidine (AZT) cannot be justified in terms of its original design, which is to inhibit HIV DNA synthesis by chain termination. It has been ten years since Robert Gallo’s press conference “proved” that HIV is the cause of AIDS. Since then, most AIDS literature has used hi&dings as a starting point, and those attempting to question that assumption have been met with scorn and ridicule. In light of the facts, it is time that the scientific paradigm of the HIVAIDS connection be re-examined, in hopes that we will come closer to a re’al cure for AIDS rather than spending time and money on a connection that, there is good reason to believe, does not exist. -with files from REASON, andProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The Eight Month Abusive Relationship: A Tale of .Terror by AJ. special

Jenner to Imprint

ave you ever been kicked awake at 5 a.m. and upon rising, been choked unconscious by your male roommate? Well, I have. As a female, have you ever been terrorized and treated like a prisoner in your own home by your friend? Well, I have. The number of times he physically and mentally abused me is countless. It just kept coming at me like a runaway train off the track. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. William’s abuse was spaced at first, usually once every month and he varied the abuse: tossing me into my bedroom, yanking my hair out by its roots, throwing a barbell and dinner knife at me. When the violence escalated further, it was a matter of weeks in between. When he started the emotional abuse with me, I thought it was cute. I could see right through his psychological tactics (need hierarchy, stimulus/response, routine therapy). In a way, I wanted to see how much techniques.

tried to control everything I did and said. I felt like his prisoner in our basement apartment. He told me how to cook and if I didn’t do it his way, hc would take the pots away from me. He’d follow me from room to room hurling insults at me. WC would call me fat, ugly, a loser, a mess, a fuck-up, and a psychotic bitch. He had a long list of insults for me. It seems he never lost steam, his need for control kept escalating. When I watched T.V., I could only watch the shows that he enjoyed or gave his sick stamp of approval to. He regulated when I went to bed, 11 p.m. no later. He degraded my speech almost anytime I opened my mouth. He touched me almost anytime he wanted to. I don’t care who you are, nobody has the right to touch me when I don’t want to be touched. Eventually he graduated to extreme violence. One night he walked into my bedroom and kicked me awake at 5 a.m. to ask me if I had money for the telephone bill. I did and told him so. He kicked me a few more times afterwards - maybe for good measure, I’m not sure. The morning after I got up real early to go to school, hoping to leave before he got up. I never made it to the exterior door. He came out of his bedroom and closed in on me demanding money for the telephone bill. I replied that I had the money. I guess he didn’ t like the answer because he started pounding me on the back of my head, then threw me into the bedroom. I felt trapped in my basement apartment bedroom, so 1 panicked and walked back out into ‘the snake pit’. He slithered up to me again and continued pounding me again until he thought of a new tactic, He put his hands around my neck and picked me up off the floor with my legs He

dangling and choked me with his hands until I couldn’t breathe, then he dropped me on the floor. As I lay there, gasping for air, he told me to get out. I eventually got out after a few more kicks and pounding on the back and sides of my head while on the way to the exterior door. On thew way to school, I realized that I couldn’t help him psychologically

I called the police when I reached school. Enough was enough. 115 pound, five -feet-four Fe was not enough to stop a six-foot-two, 210 pound man from striking againThe officer who came to my aid said my and William’s relationship was like a domestic violence situation because we had a strong emotional bond as we had dated before. As friends, we moved in

While 1 was at home, I found myself apologizing for him and feeling guilty. I thought that I should not give up on him and so decided to go back and try to help him again. I realize now that I had just put another one of his guns to my mind and body for him. ---~-anymore. He needed help that I wasn’t qualified to provide.

kindly to that kind of relationship. I gave the officer an account for his report, and William was picked up and put in jail for a day, as a cooling off period. The police then charged him with assault. The charge was precedent setting because of the male/female roommate relationship rather than spousal. With the police charge being processed, I fled to my parents to recover. My family took this opportunity to tell me exactly what they thought about William and our relationship. They said he was scum, worthless, and that it was about time I stopped wasting my time on degencrates. While I was at home, I found myself apologizing for him and feeling guilty. I thought that I should not give up on him and so decided to go back and try to help him again. I realize now that I had just put another one of his guns to my mind and body for him. It didn’t take him too long to get started again, One concussion later, I finally left him for good. One call to my brother was all it took. He moved me within a couple of hours. Now that is what I call brotherly love, nothing like it in this world. The abuse didn” t stop completely; William continued to harass me at work. 1 also didn’t like the fact that he knew where my new apartment was. One afternoon, I just broke down at my new place. I had had it. All 1 had been through finally caught up with me and I needed help fast. So 1booked myself into the hospital with a psychiatric wing to get over the torture, flashbacks, and the aftermath. Thank god for psychiatric units! By the time counselling sessions ended, 1 no longer blamed myself for not being able to help hirn to recross the fine line between normal and abusive behaviour. By the time the pre-trial proceedings day came, I no longer felt any friendship or guilt towards him. In court, I was making a stand so the truth would come out. This man needed major help before he could even think about a marriage or having children. I wanted to prevent what had happened to me from happening to someone else. William’s sentencing was not a surprise since he had no previous record. But I wonder, how does his year of probation, counselling sessions, and an assauIt conviction - that could be wiped clean in seven years - compare to what happened to me? It can’t and never will. To this day, I am still haunted by his character type. How can they willfully set out to destroy someone’s spirit? How can they enjoy someone’s eyes getting sadder every day, sleeping all the time, and in a constant frightened state? How the heck can they enjoy watching someone shrivel up before their eyes? Something kept me centred while I was in the abusive web. What people cling to in such situations varies. Some want to taste the sweetness of carrot cake again. Others want to take on the thrill of bungee jumping. . What kept me going? Real love. I had fdlt;~l

Waterloo wins it all at Oktoberfest tournament Warriors

de_feat arch rivals

Western and Laurier

by Kimberly Moser Imprint Sports If last weekend’s tournament is any indication of how the Waterloo Warriors are going to do in this year’s OUAA season, we should be in forone heck \, of a season. The Warriors beat seven other hockey teams last weekend, banging enough bodies and scoring enough goals to win the 1994 Octoberfest Tournament in a dramatic shootout against cross-town rival Laurier. With the score 3-3 after 60 minutes, Laurier and Waterloo tried to settle the game with ten minutes of overtime. But the extra time could not declare a winner in the championship final and the teams went to a shootout. When Greg Allen scored the winner past Laurier’s goalie, the team and the crowd went wild Coach Don McKee is now convinced his team is one of Canada’s top university competitors. “The way they played gave me an indication that the team is really committed to being able to play with anyone in our divi‘on,” Coach McKee said after the win. “This is the toughest division (Laurier, estern and Windsor) in university hockey, id this weekend we played all three teams Id beat them all. “We can’t ask for a bigger confidence uilder for our team. We demonstrated this .eekend that we can beat any team on any ven night if we conic to play hockey.” Waterloo’s forward Jason Mervyn was 1

named M.V.P. of the tournament, and was also named to the all-star team. Mervyn was all over the ice throughout the tournament, creating many Warrior chances, and basically playing his heart out every night. Defenceman Brian Henry was also named to the first team all-star. Coach McKee said he was happy with the play of a number of key players. “Dean MacDonald, Joe Han-is and Scott Patterson played exceptionally well,” said McKee.

Waterloo beat Windsor 4-2 and Western 5-3 to advance to the tournament championship, while the Laurier Golden Hawks beat Ottawa 2-O and Guelph 7-6 to make the final. Waterloo had been on a tear all weekend,

dominating with their high intensity level of play. Tempers flared everywhere on the ice as the fought their way to the championship match up with Laurier. The Warriors will continue to prepare for the upcoming season with the Western Tournament this wee_kend, The first game of the tournament was last night against Laurier (results were not available at press time.) The Warriors second game of the tournament will be against Ottawa in London on Friday. The Warriors have 14- 15 players returning from last year and expect to make the final cuts by the end of this weekend’s action. They will annouce the final team early next week.

Malott shines in 25-23 victorv over Guelph as Waterloo moves into third spot by Kimberly Moser Imprint Sports It was a game that left you on the edge of your seat with your heart pounding until the final second escaped from the clock, as the Warriors hung on to a slim 25-23 victory over the Guelph Gryphons. Only a week previous, Waterloo fans watched their team let a sure victory slip away to McMaster, but this week, this week would not be the case. The Warriors were led by OUAA all-star Mike Mallot, as the running back scored two touchdowns, and ran for a season high 15 I yards.

Mallot is this week’s male athlete of the week, and was more than impressed with how his team played. “I think we dug deep offensively and defensively,“said Mallet who maintained good control carrying the ball 19 times. “We got a couple of key first downs.” The win puts the Warriors in sole possesion of third place, and only one victory behind city rival Wilfrid Laurier. The stage is now set for second place, for ifwaterloo defeates the Golden Hawks, they will move in behind the Western Mustangs. Warrior quarterback Steve Bennet knows the importance of winning tomorrow’s game. “We play each other so much and we know each other so well, that it’s a big game,” said Bennet.

“There are no special plans. They know what we do and we know what they do.” Like Mallot, the Warrior’s pivot man had an excellent running game on Saturday, rushing for 124 yards on 15 carries. He also threw for 126 yards, completing 9 of 17passing attempts. Down 13- 1 I at the half, the Warriors were watching their playoff hopes dashing out the window. However, the Warriors came out of the locker room a different team. They scored only three minutes into the third quarter, as Bennet dumped quick passes to his receivers, and watched as Mallot slashed his way past defenders for the TD, making it 18-l 3. From that point, the Warriors never relinquished the lead. After

Guefph kicker Peter Barbari made it 18-l 6 on a field goal, Mallet scored his second touchdown at the 13:27 mark, making it 25-16. The fourth quarter was tedious for thewarriors, as they watched Guelph scored with four and a half minutes left in the game. But they would not score again. Saturday’s game was important for Waterloo’s record books as Gord Fawcett captured the all-time receiving mark. . “It’s a nice honour,” said Fawcett about the record. “But to tell you the truth, I’m not too wor-

ried about it. I’d rather the team does well. It’s going to be something to look back on in 15 years and see your name up there, but you know I’ll give it all up if we get a shot at the Vanier Cup.” Mallot was especially impressed with how the Warriors controlled the last five minutes of the game. “Offensively, we got a couple of key first downs to allow us time to kick the ball away and leave them with nothing. ” Our punter had a heck of a kick at the end of the game.”

Replacing kids for cash by T.J,Behe Imprint Sports Make no mistake about it, are for kids. Even though most of us admit to competing,(or at least participating in) some kind of sport or another, we all maintain a childish competitive attitude while we,redoing it. Nothing feels better than killing your best friend in a good game of squash. Or perhaps scoring the winning touchdown in a game of flag football with Uncle Bob tossing you the perfect pass in your front yard. We all become kids when we play * But organized sports is to help kids build self-confidence, improve skills, and keep them healthy. Kids don’t realize this though. They play sports because they want to be like their heroes. I saw a kid the other day who was wearing a San Jose hat, a White Sox baseball uniform and a Buffalo Bills pair of track pants. Obviously a big sports fan. “I don’t know why the season ended, but I’m hoping baseball will be back,” said the boy. “Frank Thomas is the greatest.” The twelve-year-old only knows that this year was the first in over 85 years that there wasn’t a world series championship. Jays keep it again? Big deal. Same with hockey. No sight in end to a dispute over money, money, money. (By the way, the whole ‘save the small market teams by controlling team salaries’ is a cover. The owners are making big cash, and they want to keep it from their employees) So I tell the kid about the players wanting to keep salaries escalating, and about the owners wanting more of the player’s share, and he sports

stands staring at me dumbfounded. “I guess the NHL doesn’t have enough money,” he peeps as he walks away. How ironic that he, like thousands of other kids, are wearing official merchandise from leagues that can’t seem to split up the multi-million industries they run. The message to kids: play for money and glory, not for improving self-worth. Last monday, ABC sportsman Brett Musberger was discussing the latest ruling on steroid use in the NFL. “Before, a player would be suspended for four games without pay,” says the football commentator. “Now, he will lose his pay, but he will be able to play the games. It’s called player integrity.” Player integrity? If a player decides to use steroids, they have destroyed their integrity. What is the message here? Hey kids, if you use steroids and have enough money, you can still play the game? Give me a break! As an adult, I’m confused with the decisions of

There are too many drug users in high school football as it is, and the habit spreads right into postsecondary play. Kids may not know much about drug use, but they sure know how to follow their idols.They know everything about them.

major league sports. Imagine what a kid must think. Watching the hundreds of kids lining King street hungry for a glimpse of Doug Gilmour, made the whole Oktoberfest parade stench of the mighty buck. The season hasn’t started, Gilmour is doing nothing, why not thrill a couple of kids. 0 ya, pick up a few thousand for making the appearance. It’s about time professional sports takes its head out of the giant wallet, and looks at what they need to do. Preserving the integrity of fair play. Football needs to ban all players from playing for a year, and make their steroid use a very public thing.

A rugby tale: Warriors win again, L to perfect 5-O and top divigion by Mark Morrison Imprint Sports

Brock Badgers broueht their t varsity rugbyy squad & the Columbia Icefields last Friday, to take on the Warriors for the second time in a week. The Badgers came out with a stronger rucking game than the last time we saw them, but the Warriors held strong, coming out on top of the 15-O score. Waterloo started the game slowly, appearing visibly surprised by the strong Brock rucking. A hard battle was fought by both packs, but the first half finished scoreless. After words from coach Derek Humphreys at the break, the Varsity Warriors came out an improved team, s( ing three tries in the second half. After some sinnificant Waterloo pressure on the Brock line, the Badgers were iwarded a strum on their own five metre. That should have put an end to the Warrior attack, but some excellent work by ‘the Waterloo front a, a1 1. 1 a stolen .I ,I,0 rrom me row’ 9 clellverea Dal1 put in. The ensuing number eight pick-up resulted in a maul that Anthony Beaty was able to come out of and go over for the score. Promoted to varsity this game, Steve Goodacre

made attempted the conversion but was unsuccessful. A blind side move from scrummage yielded the second Warrior trv and the second of the afternoon for Beat;. Brian Anderson moved up from his fullback position, creating the opening on the blind, 4 swinging the

the scoresheet, taking credit for the third Warrior try. Lynch chased down a kick from Pither, who showed that he still had his flyhalf skill out on the wing, and beat out the Badger defenders for the five points. Goodacre missed wide again, giving us the final 15-O in favour of our varsity Warriors. The win improves the Warrior’s record 50 and opens the door to the OUAA finals. Queen’s rugby suffered their first loss in the first division last Friday, but they are still likely to be the Warrior’s opposition in the first round of post season play. The Thanksgiving weekend proved too strong a pull for much of the Brock junior varsity team, causing them to turn up with only nine men. After accepting the default win and lend-

ing Bruck six Warrior players, what was left of Waterloo’s JV squad took on the make shift Badgers. The influx of Warrior talent proved sufficient, as Waterloo came out convincingly on top, 35-O. The Warrior junior varsity team rarely found themselves outside the Brock half throughout the game, as they totally dominated from the opening kick until the final whistle. This win also improves the JV record to 5-0, paving the way for them to move into post season play along with their varsity counterparts. Like the varsity team, the junior varsity team will likely meet Queen’s first place in post season play. The Warriors host the Blues from Toronto tomorrow, with kick-off going at 1:OO. The pressure is on now to finish at 7-O.

running backs. However, in typical Quarterback style, Bennet has been able to shake off that criticism and have a brilliant passing season last year. He has continued to improve in 1994. Bennet has a 60.9% completion ratio and has also helped the team by rushing for over 250 yards. His ability to continually improve has established the Warriors with a very dangerous offensive attack. “A lot of people say an option Quarterback is more of a running back and that’s why the first few years my passing really paid the

Steve Bennet has spent his off season working hard and developing his skills to become the accomplished quaterback he now is for the Warriors. “I just basically threw a lot in the summer.” says Bennet when asked about the improvements he’s made over the past few seasons. “Just repetition, throwing, watching a lot of films to pick up reads. I developed a lot slower than other quaterbacks. I came in the same year (Bill) Kubas did and he’s at a passing school and has developed as a passing quaterback. My developments have been slower because there’s more time spent on the option. ” I feel like I can improve a lot but I’ve made good strides in terms of passing and that’s just through repetition, repetition, repetition, inthe summer and in practise.” Now, in his final year with Waterloo football, Bennet has high aspirations for the 1994 Warriors. With most of the pressure ofthe team’s successes and failures falling on his shoulders, Bennet handles his role with the same cool confidence he carries on and off the field. “My role here is simple, just help the team win. I’m in a position where I can The man with the golden arm. influence what goes on in the field a lot price.” Bennet says in reference to more than other positions. Which is the adjustments he’s had to make to not to take anything away from become the Quarterback he is now. them - but that’s basically what I “ I had to learn a lot, like the reads. felt my role is. Just to play well, to You read the defense in terms of the play great every week and help us line and do different things that win.” other Quarterbacks don’t do.

adapted to the coaching style of Dave “Tuffy” Knight and has an interesting perspective on the feared coach. “He is not unapproachable by any means. He is a players’ coach. YOU can always come and talk to him and he’s there for you, He just wants the best out of you as a football player and you have to be able to sort that out. If he’s yelling at you or giving you heck, you can almost take that as a compliment that he wants you to get better. If you’re messing up and no one’s saying anything, that pretty much means they don’t really care how far youcomealong. He takes time with every player to make sure they develop to the fullest. Until the time he’s done with you or you leave here he’s always coaching you. Youjust have to realize that... but he is a tough coach too!” As for his future plans, Bennet is going to see what happens. “I’m going to try after the season to go to Europe and maybe play and coach football over there. My plan is to go to teacher’s college andeventually teach but we’ll see where the roads lead.” As with many other athletes, Bennet would like to see more fan support at the games. “I’d like to see big crowds. It directly rubs off on the team. It helps the athletes get up for the games a little more. It lets them know that they these fans are supporting them ‘let’s get out there and really go a little harder’. T’d like to see, not just this year, but even next year, more fans at the University on a Saturday afternoon. That’s not just for football but for Women’s basketball and Men’s basketball and any other sport. From where Waterloo football was five or six years ago to where it is now, it was a quick turn around. We’re now in a position where I think were at a prominent level nationally and also in the Ontario league. We’re a force to be reckoned with. 13.3 Iike pr;uy\~ to realize that this is a good football team.” Come out and see Bennet as he leads the Warriors into action against :Laurier tomorrow at 2 p.m.

Warehouse. The crowd was slow to warm up to the band. It wasn’t until the last few songs before the crowd even began to move to the music and the first crowd-surfer could be found. The new material like “One Way Street” and “Freeway” was cooly received even though the Primal Scream sounding “Don’t Get Down (Get Down)” was memorable. Sean realized right away that this was not going to be his night. It was evident that the new members had little time to gel before the promotional tour and it hurt the performance. Older songs like “Backwards Dog,” “Softly” and “Kiss The Gun” were de- I void of the mood that they had previously carried. Only “Divine Thing” and “Pleasure” held any of their former spark. Although remaining member Dickson is the chief songwriter, the Soup Dragons were a former shell of themselves on stage. Without the rest of his former band be2 hind him, the cohesive na1’ ture of the show was lost. “I’m Free,” the Roll- ‘:j ing Stones cover song and Soup Dragons biggest hit, ;

by Mike Buss4 and Hana Solomon special to Imprint

ast Thursday night, Blue Rodeo came to Stages. Now Blue Rodeo is no stranger to these parts nor to the hey-pourme-into-my-too-tightJordaches slightly-over-30.crowd-ofStages. But Thursday night was different - Thursday night was Bazil’s night. 1 Bazil Donovan is the Friar Tuck look-alike bass player for Blue Rodeo and right from the opening cords of “Rosecoloured glasses” the crowd was ahootin’ and ahollerin’ out his name (see below). Last time Blue Rodeo was through town they had just pieced together a new band after the departure of keyboardis Bobby Wiseman. Now after little more than a year playing with the addition of Kim Deschamps on pedal steel guitar, James Gray on keyboardi and Glenn Milchem on

drums, the band arrived in fine form with a stage full of circa 1972 reading lamps. Blue Rodeo exemplifies the gritty, hard working Canadian band and shows no sign of letting up on touring and recording. The band played a wide variety of material from “Outskirts,” “Diamond Mine, ” “Casino,” “Lost Together” and “5 Days in July.” The sold out crowd was amazingly receptive and the night quickly turned into a sing-along; at times the crowd’s singing even overpowered that of the band, Neither of Blue Rodeo’s frontmen (Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor) looked their usual roadweary selves and fhc band seemed as relaxed of Jim because we don’t as they were tight. Blue Here’s a picture Rodeo has choosen _1to haveoneofB&], keep some of their alder porating the pedal steel, adding material sounding fresh by incor-

more piano bits and longer guitar solos. The result of these looser arrangements was a great jam-like feel for such songs as “Till I Am Myself Again, ” “Diamond Mine,” and “Trust Yourself.” Typical of a Blue Rodeo show, both Jim and Greg were happy just to play their tunes and add only the occasional “thanks” between numbers. A bit surprising was the fact that the band was more than receptive to the crowd’s shouting out song requests. Clearly the highlight of the evening (apart from the standard Stage’s laser was show - uh, hello?) Bazil taking to the microphone and singing some song called “I Was Stoned and I Missed It” while the rest of the band huddled around another mike to sing back-up. The band seems to be sticking to

their tried-and-true style for the new material they showcased at this show. If a new album is in the works, songs such as “In Your Eyes” and “Sky Falling Down”

promise to continue to please Blue Rodeo’s ever growing fan club. Lor< Yates opened the show with a five-piece band that sounded fresh from Nashville. The band played really tight and Lori’s voice was solid. She even offered. to buy herself a new leather coat if we’d all go out and buy her record (good trade Lori)! We only caught the last three songs, but if would be great if she came to town again in a smaller venue fbor her own show . After almost two hours worth of Blue Rodeo mania the happy crowd was treated to a three song encore of “Heart Like Mine” (which they had to start twice cause the crowd was singing along so loud), “5 Days in May” and the athemic “Lost Together.” Without a doubt Blue Rodeo will be back in the area sometime soon so catch ‘em if you can - and tell Bazil we said “hi.”

Eric Clapton Thursday, Umber 6 Maple Leaf Gardens

by Chris Aldworth Imprint staff

he name Eric Clapton can unashamedly be used in the same sentence as rock and roll stalwarts Neil Young and Bob Dylan. Relics from the sixties, all three have retained their popularity through time, all the while creating some great music. Unlike the above mentioned artists, Eric Clapton’s music is far more steeped in the blues. At every turn in his career Eric Clapton has kept himself closely linked to this compelling form of music. Whether it was with John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, The Yardbirds, Cream, Derek and the Dominos or as part of his solo successes, Clapton is always trying relate to the early American bluesmen. With his latest rclcase From The Cradle, the master guitar player pays homage to this emotional style of music, by covering both well known and obscure blues songs. It was this raw emotion that fans were greeted with at Maple Leaf Gardens. Eric Clapton gave the audience an education in the blues, simultaneously treating them to a night of fine music. Billed as “A night of the blues,” Eric Clapton served up exactly what the title implied. It

was a night filled with blues standards that have no doubt had a huge impact on the course of Eric Clapton’s career. Opening with “How Long Blues,” the clocks were rolled back in time to the early years of blues, a time long before the sound of the Allman Brothers, The Doors and The Rolling Stones commercialized the sound, creating a rock/blues hybrid. The master musician was technically

They opened their show with the midtempo “Powerful Today,” and picked up the pace with “Murder in Yer Own Backyard,” which is typical of their songs in that it describes the world around them. Christian Wagner, the bassist and newest member of the band, kept the crowd thoroughly entertained all night long with his

open stage space that the lead singer Jeff didn’t use. Christain’s influences from groups like The Circle Jerks and what he described as “weird underground rap,” (which he admires because, “it speaks so real”), has given the band a harder edge. Jeff Beardall on lead vocals sang a good version of “Powerful Wonderful,” their new single, which led into “Big Big World.” Tight and together, hard and fast, they work off one another with ease, without sounding sloppy or e. punk-surf guitar sound atanatras was let loose in

Oedipus Spanking the Monkey written and directed by David 0. Russell playing

at the Princess Cinema Friday October, I.5 h4mday October 17

by Pat Merlihan Imprintstaff

eating the meat, choking the chicken, and spanking the monkey are all slang phrases to describe the wondrous joy of solo sex. And quite relevant terminology for David Russell’s black comedy debut Spanking the A4onkey which takes you to the inner depths of a young man’s Oedipal instinct as hc faces a dreary summer tending to his ailing mother. After having returned from a successful first year Mrs at MIT, Raymond Aibelli (Jeremy Davies) is accepted into a prestigious summer internship with the Surgeon General’s office in Washington, DC. But because of his mother’s condition - she’s got a broken hip and suffers wild bouts of depression -and his father’s business trips selling motivational videotapes, Ray is thrust upon home duties instead of taking the internship. Playing frustrated house servant mixing stiff drinks of vodka & tonic for his bcdriddcn mother and taking his father’s precious dog for long walks (who’s rotting gums need weekly brushings) is about all in store for Ray’s anticlimatic summer. With the slow passage of time something has to

ne of the most promising folk singers to break waves is Victoria based Greenhouse. If his new

independen t release The Things That You Believe is any indication, his debut performance in this area will be an intimate evening of insightful music. The Schoolhouse Theatre show in St. Jacobs will be a particularly special occasion, as Greenhouse grew up minutes away from St. Jacobs in Conestogo. His music career was spawned while attending Elmira District Secondary School where he played trombone in the school band, performed in highschool musicals, and con-

Furthering his musical education obtaining a degree at McGill and a masters in Musicology at University of Victoria has crafted Greenhouse’s musical mastery which is evident on The Things That Yuu Believe. For the past four years Greenhouse has stationed himself on the West Coast and strongly established himself on the local folk scene. He is quickly becoming a sought after performer in Pacific Northwest venues and festivals and will probably fair as well in these areas. Not only is he a well rounded musican mastering fiddle, violin, guitar, and harmonica, but his rich compelling voice, the muscial arrangements, and insightful lyrics add testimony to the talent that will be exhibited on October 14. Local events also contributed to the inspirations for several of the songs from the album which Greenhouse will undoubtedly unfold for those in attendence. The intimate setting of The School House Theatre in St. Jacobs, and Greenhouse’s warming to the audience will definitely prove to be an enjoyable evening

Have you been trying to find those few obscure numbers to round off your collection of surf music? Look no further. The soundtrack from the 1994 Cannes Film Festival ‘best picture award’ winner has what you’ve been looking for. You’ll want to plug in your Fender Jaguar and play along with The Tornadoes, The Centurions, The Revels, The Lively Ones, and Dick Dale and His Del-Tones. These bands provide the framework for the album. Also featured are songs by Chuck Berry, The Statler Brothers (“...smokin’ cigarettes and watchin’ Captain Kangaroo”), Ricky Nelson, Al Green, and the queen of blue-eyed soul - Dusty Springfield.

digging into “musical roots,” can make you depressed if you let repetitious chorus lines and lyrics like “I wouldna, wouldna, 1 wouldna wouldna want to be ya,“and “Life in this world can be such a bitch...day in, day out.” The album’s messages are definitely not too subliminal but if you listen xo them while sleeping you’ll probably never have unnrotected sex again.

While their first album, And Nuw the Legacy Begins was full of jazzyplayfulsongslike”WashYour Face In My Sink,” and “My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style,” this new album has somehow lost something of their boombastici sm that endeared me to them in the first place.

Jones is, of course, that master of the elcctric piano who brought us such memorable songs as “Green Onions” and, well. . . “Green Onions”! The M.G.‘s seem to be whoever Booker T. can get together with for the purpose of cutting an album. Be forewarned: Booker’s not that big on vocals or lyrics. In fact, there aren’t any. As per usual,

represented here. Along with the usual political ramblings and mutterings of a band of this type there’s some blues, country, ambient and just plain weird songs on this album. The first track “Drumtrip” made me think I’d mistakenly put on my “Papa’s got a Brand New Pigbag” 12” with its pulsing drums and throbing bass. Listening to another track “Ecstacy” I just had to grin. It was Santana and every other pseudo-latino influence rolled into one song, complctc with a cheesy fake Mexican accent. The band cites The Rolling Stones, Peter Gabriel and many world beat and tribal bands as influences. So if you’re into this sccnc and find Peter Gabriel a bit too album’s poppy, then this rccomendcd as being a fine example of the “new” global music scene. the entire album is a bluesy instrumental collection of tunes. The opening track, “Slip Slidin”‘, sounds a little like John Mellcncamp’s “Rumbleseat” with a little hammond organ and acoustic twang thrown in. Some notable cover tunes include Bob Dylan’s “Gotta Serve “I Can’t Stand the Somebody,” Rain,” late of the Commitments fame, a cover of the Motown classic “Just My Imagination,” and a formidable version of U2’s “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.” Unfortunately, many of the tunes come across as a funky muzak kind of thing, sometimes with some heavy beat in the background, but not very often. Overall, not a bad album. Good background study music.

than a passing debt to early seventics country-folk-rock pioneers, such as Poco, or Crosby Stills, and Nash, and especially Gram Parsons, of the latter day Byrds. Idha wrote most of the songs, and sings in a breathy style that is original, neither reminiscent of country, nor of her native Sweden. It is this originality of voice that makes the album so beautiful and original, and definitely the best in a bunch of new Creation country bands. The tunes are familiar, with Dobros, Nationals, and Fender Rhodes making up the complement of instruments, but are nonetheless beautiful, risen from the mundane by Idha’s beautiful voice. With its folk strummed guitars, and prominent vocals, those expecting another British indiepop album should stay away from Melody Inn. However, for those searching for something as familiar as it is honest, then this album will satisfy and scintillate while making inroads on country’s crossover to the respectable.

listening to the voice talking like cheap Vie the lyrics, the sounding and voice rarely shows any emotion other than guilt and anger. The absolute worst track is “Consolidated buries the mammoth” where a shitty rhythm track bores the listener for a few minutes, broken up by Adam’s tales of how he would kill William F. Buckley, Kush Limbaugh and Howard Stern. This would be excusable if they were funny, but “I think tk

The opening track of Business of Punishment, “Cutting” is the most telling of where Consolidated are headed. Whe’re once, the sounds were crushing, distorted drum machines, and inventive samples. “Cutting” wouldn’t sound out of place on a Nine Inch Nails album. Although Consolidated have always been stupid, they haven’t always been this boring. Both lyritally and musically, this is bad -even for Consolidated. The low points are probably “no answer for a dancer” and “dog + pony show. ” Tn the former, Adam Sherburne et al. are at their lowest, groveling about how they’re worthless white males, and they just don’t understand how hard it is to be a woman, etc. etc. This song illustrates brilliantly, the problem with Consolidated - they can’t write songs. All of the topics they discuss are important in a sense, but four minute song just isn’t the way to deal with any of these issues. The best they can do is to rant vaguely about some issue. Wait a minute, that sounds a lot like me.

tc, insert Hukl!ard Stern him and /et him die there.” isn’t my idea of a hilarious tale. There is, however, one pretty good song on this CD. “Butyric Acid” has a fantastic beat to it; better even than “This is Fascism.” Adam is still affecting this rough, growly voice but there is a sense of cadence and rhythm in .his words, which is lacking from everything else on this album. With this a single, Consolidated would at least be going somewhere. ,4s it is, this album marks the decline of a band that grows more and more ridiculous with every release.
