was “like a fraternity” . Like frater­ nities, a product of the traditional oldtype universities, it was almost a ceremonie tradition. Members of the company tended to stay with the group throughout their stay at McGill, pro­ gressing to positions of greater respon­ sibility as the years went by. Pride came with being a member of the com­ pany. Indeed, the Red and White Revue was known as “the premier showcase of student talent in the city of Montréal,” and it annual production was looked forward to each year with anticipation.

The unity of the Revue deteriorated during the 1960s. The last time the Revue was able to stage a large-scale production was in 1974, following which it was inactive for five years. It was re-established in 1979 as a musical variety-talent show, but was not entire­ ly sucessful in sparking the enthusiasm it once generated.

The last showing of the Red and White Revue was in 1982, the year when part of the cast of “My Fur Lady” celebrated its 25th anniversary at the Sheraton Center with a large scale two-day reunion. This may have been the spark to set the thoughts behind this year’s production, “ When I’m Elected,” in motion. This produc­ tion’s script has been the collaborative effort of Remy Kawkabani and Yona continued on page 8

by Michael Smart The brochure of the McGill Ad­ vancement Program (MAP) has the slick and glossy air of a prospectus of a high-tech firm embarking on its first stock issue. The booklet is intended to help MAP attract $61 million dollars in private funds to McGill by 1986. Much of the money is expected to come from corporations and private foundations, so perhaps the Program’s marketing techniques are appropriate.

The University’s increased reliance on private donations is seen by some students as an alarming trend. Some feel that funding by business will lead to too great an emphasis on program­ mes of interest to the private sector, such as business courses and industrial research.

Over half of MAP funds is expected to be raised from corporations and foundations. Almost two-thirds of the total will be in the form of “major gifts” .

Projects in the Arts Faculty are ex­ pected to receive $6.4 million from the Progam, less than half the figure allot­ ted to Medicine and Dentistry. Arts will receive less than Engineering and substantially less per student that Science.

Tom Thompson, Deputy Director of MAP, admits that donations to Arts projects are well below goals. The

by Heather Clancy McGill University’s theatrical organization, The Red and White Revue, is one rich in history. A tradi­ tion bom in 1924, the Revue styled its first musical revue after the vaudeville type, so popular in that day. Gradual­ ly, the Revue progressed to full scale musical comedies, and presented “ My Fur Lady” in 1957, soon to become the most popular Canadian theatrical pro­ duction up to that time with a record number of 84 on the road perfor­ mances. Ironically, The Red and White Revue’s bright past is relatively unknown to the majority of McGill’s student population.

The Red and White Revue is one of four theatrical groups affiliated with McGill University. In the Revue, each show is written, performed, and pro­ duced by McGill students or alumni. It is by no means a pre-requisite to be ex­ perienced in theater. Rather, the Revue draws participants from virtually every faculty on the main McGill campus, and also from the much forgotten MacDonald campus. Much hidden talent has been nurtured by the ex­ perience of the Revue, including that of Tim Porteous, Director of the Canada Council for the Arts, and Galt McDermott, musical composer of the rock opera “ Hair” .

donors “want to maintain tradition and yet build to reflect the changing needs of society,” he said.

Thompson doesn’t believe donations will “ squeeze out” Arts or any other faculty. “ I think our fundraisers will be able to convince (the donors) of the value of Arts,” he said.

Vice-Principal E.J. Stansbury, who is responsible for planning, says “it’s just not fair to evaluate the Program in mid-term.” He points out that fun­ draisers have been concentrating on at­ tracting money to other projects, such library automation.

Doctor Michael Maxwell, the Dean of Arts, says he hopes “we can also ap­ peal to business. Many of our pro­ grammes, such as East Aisan Studies are obviously of deep interest to businessmen.”

He admits “there is the problem” that universities are forced to tailor their programmes to business interests. “ It’s a lot easier to attract money to Science, and we’re desperately anxious not to be left behind.”

Maxwell discounted reports that Arts projects aren’t popular donors.

He stressed that “we’ve got to see the final figures. We remain confident that (MAP) is aware of the great needs of Arts.”

by Kathy Murray On Tuesday, October 30th over two hundred people flocked to the Union Ballroom for Principal Johnston’s of­ ficial welcome to foreign students at­ tending McGill. The majority gathered around the food and beverage table which was laden with sandwiches, olives and cauliflower.

Students from many nations, in­ cluding Japan, Indonesia, England, Pakistan, India and the United States, were represented. Milling about too, were the Principal’s wife and delightful young daughters. The fact that Dr. Johnston met as many students as he could made the ensuing speeches much more friendly.

Grace Permaul opened with an en­ thusiastic oration on the importance of appreciating the individuality of each McGill student, foreign or Canadian, f

S tu d e n ts who comprises the student c o m m u n ity .

Dean Stevenson then followed with in­ vitations to make full use of the ser­ vices offered at McGill specifically designed for typical student quandries.

And finally, Principal Johnston, in a short speech, reiterated Permaul’s message that foreign students con­ tribute character and diversity to the community of McGill. Paraphrasing St. Exupéry’s little prince, Principal Johnston’s maxim was: though I am different from you I don’t diminish but enrich you.

In general, the reception went decidedly well. From the comfortable and friendly atmosphere it seemed that the students were already quite ensconced at McGill. Principal Johnston’s message, however, added a personal touch and reinforced the en­ couragement to simply enjoy.

react to public opinion,” he said.

Thompson denies that the emphasis on private funding is hurting Arts or any other faculty. “Certainly practical things seem to push aside more esoteric ones. But people are looking back to Arts as a basic education, deepening their learning and enhancing their ap­ preciation of life,” he said.

However, Thompson’s views remain hard to reconcile with recent statements of Hal Wyatt, the vicechairman of the Royal Bank of Canada. At a recent conference of educators and businessmen, reported in the Globe and Mail, Wyatt berated the Universities for what he considered the self-indulgence and waste of many programmes. He called for a return to basics, among which he included “lifeskills courses,” such as how the system

of finance and credit works.

Thompson concedes that private business will tend to have its own in­ terests at heart. “This is an investment for them. They’ve got ta be asking themselves what they’re going to get in return,” he said.

Be prepared to be shocked but don’t miss Aaron Stern. For two bucks you just might learn more than what you get from a McGill course costing several hundred.

Ironically, Wyatt’s* immediate superior at the Royal, Chairman Rowland Frazee, is a member of the Board of Governors and a key figure in MAPs leadership. Frazee is responsible for soliciting “ key gifts” from in­ dividuals. To MAP, a key gift is anything from $100,000 to $6 million.

Regardless of the effects of business in­ fluence on the University, Thompson points out that any new money is need­ ed and welcomed. “A rising tide will lift all the boats,” he said.

by Grace Permaul The recent publication of “The Great Brain Robbery — The Decline of Canada’s Universities” (Bercuson, Bothwell & Graiiastein), has provoked a great deal of discussion with regard to the state of our institutions of higher learning. As one who has represented the student viewpoint in several of these discussions on CBC’s “The Jour­ nal” and in the Montreal Gazette, I am pleased that greater attention is being granted to such an important issue.

Yet, in spite of the coverage that “The Great Brain Robbery” has received, many of the potentially con­ tentious issues have been overlooked, and perhaps intentionally so. Until recently, to discuss such topics as women’s studies, black studies and native studies has been somewhat “ taboo” . When these programs have been mentioned, they have been ad­ dressed as peripheral items, and viewed as external to the true realm of the educational milieu. The ghetto men­ tality with which these areas of study are viewed has left them stereotyped as unnecessary and fruitless. Overtones of this mentality and atitude are present

in “The Great Brain Robbery” .

Ironically, in light of such concern for academic scholarship, the very pro­ grams that could attract serious scholars at all levels are either non­ existent or poorly funded. As a result, we export many of our best students to institutions in the United States where programs such as race relations and, yes, Canadian studies are offered.

With no guarantee that these scholars will return, we risk the loss of their contribution to Canadian society.

However, this loss of potential talent is a problem not only with those who leave and study abroad, but also with those students who become lost in the Canadian system. Professors Ber­ cuson, Bothwell and Granastein sug­ gest that lower entrance standards, grade inflation and a “supermarket” of courses to select from have provided both an easy entrance and exit to students who perhaps do not belong in the university enviroment.

While it is true that the screening process must be improved, it is impor­ tant to note that standardized testing is by no means a foolproof method of testing. Before such tests could be fair-

ly applied, it would be necessary to en­ sure that all applicants had received a comparable primary and secondary school education. It is at these levels where the-crux of the problem lies.

Is it the duty of the university to en­ sure that students possess knowledge o f basic reading, writing and mathematical skills upon graduation, or should the students arrive at univer­ sity with these skills? If in fact the university is an institute of higher lear­ ning, then it seems somewhat unfair for society to expect the university to fulfill a mandate that primary and secondary schools could not.

standard education has been received by most Canadian students before they reach the university level, any im­ plementation of standard testing will not be free of valid complaints that such tests are culturally or socio­ economically biased.

Furthermore, open admission policies such as that of the University of Regina will prove that students who do not meet regular academic entrance standards, but who demonstrate academic promise during a lengthy in­ terview, can and do actually excel in the university enviroment. Should these students be robbed of the oppor­ tunity to further their education and in turn to make a contribution to Cana­ dian society?

What Nightline Means To Callers

by The McGill Nightline Volunteers Students who call Nightline do so for many reasons. Since its opening last Valentine’s Day, close to 300 students have called Nightline. They talked primarily about school, loneliness, and relationships. On the whole however, the topics were limitless and we as volunteers have tried to listen as a friend would — openly and sym­ pathetically. We listen and give out in-formation, but we also do much, much more.

This article gives examples of what Nightline volunteers provide to McGill students. To do this we asked ourselves a couple of questions. The first being “what do we think callers get out of Nightline?” Volunteers answered that it gave students: “ ...a chance to talk and get any problems they might have off their shoulders;...a sympathetic

Barton Discusses Shakespeare And Directing

by Mario Emond “ In theatre, there are no rules about most things” , according to Mr. John Barton, the associate director of England’s Royal Shakespeare Com­ pany. The noted Shakespearian direc­ tor said this to his audience of about sixty students and professors huddled together in Morrice Hall on Friday, October 26.

For nearly two hours Mr. Barton directed his audience into the world of Shakespeare. With humour, dogma and insight he answered myriad ques­ tions on the director’s functions, the actor’s role, the design of sets and costumes, as well as on the many am­ biguities and interpretations of Shakespeare’s plays.

Since his college days at Cambridge, during the late 1940s, Mr. Barton has been directing and adapting and at times, acting in many of Shakespeare’s plays. In 1960 he joined the newly founded Royal Shakespeare Company and in 1964 became its associate direc­ tor. His workplace has since become the preeminent theatre for Shakespeare in the world.- Despite this prestige, the humility of the man — his casual man­ ner, his grizzled beard and haggard

cardigan — were well in keeping with the informality of the Hall.

Between several coffees and cigaret­ tes, Mr. Barton cleared the audience’s doubts with his lucid views. Regarding a director’s license, Mr. Barton’s at­ titude was flexible: usually he abided by the text but he often changed it for such considerations as budget restric­ tions (sets, costumes), length of time (cutting overly long plays) and spatial arrangements (limited area of stage). A director’s staging was also influenced by a previous production; it triggered him to accept or reject points which have or have not worked in the past.

On the whole he chose his plays accor­ ding to “ idealistic urges and practial needs” .

When working with actors a direc­ tor, according to Mr. Barton, must find the middle ground between his vi­ sion and the actor’s abilities. He must push his interpretation to extract from the actors those features that will best suit his vision. Actors “must follow in­ stincts on one hand and follow clues left in the text on the other. “On the whole,” Mr. Barton advises, “ I would discourage reading of criticism by ac­ tors, it tends to pervert the acting style.

Shakespeare’s characters are created with ambiguities and contradictions.

Actors must embrace them rather than run away from them.”

As for stage design, the dominant one in England is the eclectic one. The combining of elements — modern materials with Elizabethan dress, for example — is accepted by the audience.

In response to the difficulties of incor­ porating imagery into the sets Mr. Bar­ ton noted that audiences were more in­ terested in plot, characters and settings than in imagery. The latter would only distract the audience. He cites the in­ clusion of a snowman on the stage of Richard II as Richard phrases “To melt myself away in water-drops” as a bad, but notable, example.

This film is boring. I liked the animated featurette R u p ert A n d The F ro g Song better than the main attrac­ tion; and this short cartoon left much to be desired also. McCartney co-wrote R u p ert A n d The F ro g Song and wrote the story to G ive M y Regards To Broadstreet. I suggest he stick to writing hit songs from now on.

This is McCartney’s first major role on the silver screen since his days with the Beatles. Many people will be frustrated with the results. The underlying plot to this film is a rock star, McCartney, having a hard day at

by Melinda Ham and Alfred Mose Unpredictable and intriguing rela­ tionships can develop behind mas­ querades at M.M.’s stereotypical McGill Hallowe’en party. The bare stage is set for a flash of improvisational encounters at Player’s Theatre in ‘Campus’ Soap Opera.

‘Campus’ is McGill’s first venture into the realm of improvisational theatre, and despite the shortcomings of the production the effort in a com­ mendable one which has room to grow and flourish.

The imaginative and elaborate costumes in the production betrayed the somewhat underdeveloped level of characterization. Perhaps due to the nature of an improv soap opera ad­ vanced characterization cannot be ex­ pected. In the space of 45 minutes the status and interrelationships of characters, plot, setting and theme had

the o ffic e . I say underlying because that’s exactly what it is. The main plot is McCartney and his friends jamming for whatever reason, be it for a film, a radio show, or rehearsals. The movie goes through many of McCartney’s hits including some of his old Beatles tunes and his newest single N o M o re L o n e ly Nights.

The good parts in the film are few and sparsely distributed. The comical fast motion sequence of McCartney speeding to his office in his customized roadster is one such scene. His daydreaming through Eleanor Rigby is another. The cinematography and use of sparkling colours through the ball room dance scene and again through Eleanor R ig b y are exquisite but soon forgotten through the rest of the film.

I’d say Give M y Regards To Broadstreet is strictly for diehard Beatles or McCartney fans.

to be developed and built upon.

As the production progressed it became apparent that some members of the cast were more talented than others. Othello, the 19th century high society lady, and the female vampire were the most convincing players.

Robert Pennant, disguised as Othello, played an infatuated and confused grad student very well and Helene Davis’ portrayal of the all too familiar sorority girl was brought off with minimal exaggeration. Unfortunately other members of the cast brought the production down.

represents to us all. Centered in his analogy was the vitality of the seeking of the intangible goals. Those objec­ tives sought with attention tp character, pride, and truth! Those at­ tributes so often mentioned but rarely manifested. The 1984 McGill Redmen would have made Grantland proud, for despite major setback that will have many followers of the Redmen asking questions and perhaps demanding answers, what cannot be questioned is the meritorious presence of the players in uniform. Those players who must, after having given so much for so long, be feeling that maybe it wasn’t worth it all.

T h e P arty is O ver! hours of effort and the times of pain and anguish for when the votes are col­ lected in quieter times, when the dust has settled and objectivity returns, each member of the 1984 McGill Redmen will have the greatest rewards for having played and lost and for sharing the anger and the anguish as well as the joy and the wonderous ex­ perience of joining together in com­ mon pursuit.

If the effort fell short of the objec­ tive it detracts not from the basis of en­ try into the arena reserved for the privileged in our midst who have been permitted a special standing; that of the collegiate footballer who plays for the grandest reason of them all: “ love

of the game” ! For these men are above reproach. If what they had to offer was, on this day, less than another superior football team it does not make their presence less than if they had put more points on the board. If they must bear the burden of coming up short they do so with the knowledge that their failing was of the noblest order for they gave what they had to give. No one should, indeed could, ask for more!

The point is made that everyone pro­ vided the ’84 Redmen with major positive presence. They should all be saluted for their contribution. Good luck to all!

by Glen Cunningham The curtain fell upon the Redmen football season with a resounding finality Saturday afternoon at Richard­ son Stadium in Kingston as old nemesis Queen’s Golden Gaels rocked the McGill Redmen 65-29 to knock the Red and White out of further play in ’84.

While everyone connected with the team will no doubt be walking around shaking their head wondering what happened, no one should hang their head on this spirited Redmen con­ tingent. A team’s worth goes far beyond mere wins and losses.

by “Boy” Aizeki The Redmen Soccer team won their fifth consecutive QUAA championship on Halloween night by shutting out the Concordia Stingers 3-0.

The win qualified the Reds for this past Sunday’s national semi-final match against University of British Columbia, which features Ken Miller, who has 14 goals.

Admittedly, the battle for the QUAA title was not close. The Redmen made it look easy. Howeyer, McGill’s head coach Gord Gow pro­ mised “ there’s no way that this team will be down for Sunday’s game.”

McGill scored 12 minutes into the game as Graham Butcher, the leading scorer in the QUAA blasted in an ontarget cross by Marc Noe. Minutes later, Valerio Gazzola took advantage of a slack stinger defense by drilling in the second for McGill from the goal area.

The Redsocs clearly outplayed their crosstown rivals, as the Stingers were» unable to take one decent shot at the McGill net manned by veteran keeper Aldo Braccio.

On the other hand, the Redmen of­ fense kept Stinger goalie Derek Smith on his toes. By virtue of their scoring opportunities, the Redmen could have had the game on a greater margin. At one point in the second half, Butcher shot right into Smith’s hands on the ground. Later, Louis Konstantopoulos deftly outdribbled Smith, but his shot nicked the right post.

Three opportunities were handed on a silver platter to rookie Kamal Ahfeda, the third of which he capitalized on by getting past the defenders and sending the ball home for McGill’s final goal with 2 minutes to go in the game.

Stinger forward Ron Ruffner, in his fourth and final year with the squad, has endured the perennial QUAA crunch with optimism. “ In the beginn­ ing of this season, we had problems ad­ justing to the new system,” he confess­ ed of Concordia’s first year with coach Andy Onorato, "but in the end, we came out more disciplined. McGill was well disciplined as usual. They know what its like to win. With experience our young team should improve great­ ly.”

For head coach Gow, this victory signified McGill’s psychological discipline. “There was a lot more than soccer ability in this game — it was highly emotional.”

Cross Country Wins Provincials

by Dave McGruer and Heather Peniuk McGill’s Cross Country Women’s team won the Quebec Provincial University Championship for the fifth year in a row. The women are now off the the National Championships being held in Guelph, Ontario next weekend.

Lizanne Bussières of McGill placed first in Quebec but will not be represen­ ting McGill at the Nationals as she will be running in the New York Marathon.

Coach Tom Silletta says he is looking forward to the Nationals, “ It’s going to be a tough competition but we’ll try our best against the best.”

by Lance H. Ricardo Have you ever noticed that bizarre character who comes into your lecture every week with a new and more ex­ citing injury: a black eye, a mangled leg or a broken nose? Well, if you have seen one of these walking bandage con­ sumers, then you’re probably wonder­ ing why he’s always so cheerful. The reason is not pain killers. Dr. Robert (Bob) Schnapps of the Protective Sciences Involving the Unwashed (P.S.I.U.) research clinic has recently been treating patients for what he refers to as Rugby Scrunitis Knock-on Syndrome. The chances are that if the battered individual in your class occa­ sionally wears an authentic Rugby shirt than he probably suffering from this syndrome. If this individual does wear Rugby paraphenalia (check the smell)don’t panic, as there is help.

According to Dr. Schnapps, these in­ dividuals are “suffering from never even knowing what quiche is, never mind eating it” . (Here it must be pointed out that Dr. Schnapps’ theories have come under doubt lately due to the dubious nature of his clinic).

A different explanation has surfaced that is getting widespread support throughout the rugby world. Doctors

Knirsh and Osmond have developed a two-part explanation for the cheer­ fulness of the McGill rugby players. If a rugby player is smiling during his night time activities it is due to the suc­ cessful season that the McGill R.F.C. is currently enjoying. Either that or he is, in the words of Doctor Dnirsh, “A walking beer keg waiting to be tapped” .

The first team at McGill has a credi­ ble record of 6-2-1 . the two losses occured early in the season to Manchester University of England by a score of 15-9 and to last year’s Quebec champs St. Anne’s by 4-0. Since the slow start, the first fifteen has begun to reach its’ full potential. Coach David Hardy believes that the team is “the best that McGill has had in years” . The perfor­ mance of the team has been rewarded by the appointment of six members to the Quebec provincial team and one to the Alberta team. These players are: Bemie Lasage, Mike Evans, Brian Simms, Frank Herrara, Ian Gamble, Theo Loveday and Jim Halverson.

The team, reunited after the Na­ tional Championships, has begun to reach the apex of its potential as they trounced Bishop’s 101-0, a score that is ___ continued on page 8

Congratulations go to Wayne Colizza, Frank Herrara, Eric Frieze and John Dingle who showed Bishop’s mercy and were the only team members not to score in the match.

Despite the rout of Bishop’s, and the solid 40-0 victory over the University of Vermont, the firsts will have to polish up their act in the next two weeks before the Covo cup against Harvard. In addition to being the “McGill of the South” , Harvard is also home of the current university champion rugby team. Harvard is out

for revenge after losing the last two Covo cups to McGill.

The cup not only has a strong first fifteen, but the second fifteen is also loaded with talent. After losing their captain Iain Ellison to “irreperable head damage” — according to Iain - a minor concussion according to all others, the team was a little dismayed.

With the appointment of Rob WilsonSmith as new captain, the team regain­ ed it’s composure. Last week, a com­ plete team effort allowed them to beat the Ontario provincial Juniors. Great individual performances were put in by Mike Sorosiak, Dave Howard and Patrick Murray.

Just below the seconds in the inter­ mural league which has six teams. Only in its first year, the inter-mural pro­ gram has shown great promise. The third fifteen for the Harvard trip will be made up of members of the intermural league.

Accompanying the men to Boston for the first time will be the women’s team. The girls — led by import Karen Richardson — are likely to continue their winning ways. Thus far, they have beaten Bishop’s, Champlain Col­ lege and a men’s fifteen in the first ever McGill boy-girl rugby match.

The club, as a whole is expecting to win all four games in Harvard to crown

R ed an d W h ite continued from page 1 Shtem. The original musical score was written by Steve Wood. All were in­ volved in the Revue’s last production.

This year’s production of “When I’m Elected” marks the 60th anniver­ sary of the Red and White Revue. It is only fitting that the story, in this year of Federal elections, revolves around these events. The central character, Steve Baker is fresh out of McGill University and aspires to be someone “big” . After witnessing a House of Commons debate, he decides to run as a student independent in the upcoming election. His riding is “McGill/St.

Laurent” , with a 95% student consti­ tuency. Seeing a possible political upset, the other parties decide to run students also. The conservatives decide to run the charismatic Mr. Studley Gripwell, captain of the Redmen foot­ ball team. The liberals select, on patronage, Irwin Goldfarb, an aspiring punk rock star. The NDP chooses mature student Mr. Ed Broadway, and the Parti-Nationaliste picks the “irresistable, insatiable” Miss Dianne Chantelle.

The entire cast and production staff of “When I’m Elected” have high hopes for the show. McGill University is one of two remaining schools which

produce a full-scale original revue of this type, the other being Princeton University. We feel that it is vital that this outlet for creativity should be kept open here at McGill University.

The outcome will be decided beginn­ ing on Wednesday, November 14 at 8:00 p.m. through November 24. (with the exception of the 19) Join us at Moyse Hall as we bring you up-to-date coverage of the exciting electoral race.

off a fine season. According to club President Andy Stuart and Captain H. Brian Simms, the only thing that could stop McGill from winning would be if Abe decides to come on the bus. So, the next time you see that slighlty malfigured individual in the red and white rugby shirt, remember that he or she is only suffering from the smell of victory._____________ continued from page 6 the game and used high sets to put their spikers in a better position to score.

This strategy payed off, as McGill quieted Ithaca in the second game 15-5.

In the third game, however, McGill lost ground with several missed serves and barely sneaked by with a score of 16-14, to the pleasure of the crowd which hadn’t witnessed Ithaca beaten by anyone.

In the semi-finals, McGill romped over U. of Rochester, 15-0, 15-4, and continued on to the finals to meet Ithaca again.

From the first serve to the final point, McGill controlled the weary Ithaca, and to a sell-out crowd, showed them how to play ball. Everything “came together” for McGill as the superior spiking and blocking reduced to nil any hope for Ithaca’s offence.

The final score was 15-4, 15-5, and the crowd loved it!
