udenti hopeto stay on . The harried student tenants of Waterloo Towers have decided to ignore three eviction notices received in the last two weeks. In a meeting Wednesday morning between the students and Federation representatives, two alternatives were presented by Federation president Steve Ireland. “You can either fight the eviction in court or you can press for an agreement between yourselves and Abrahak,” said Ireland. A.N. Abraham, who sent the eviction letters ,. is president of Heboto Management Services. The Toronto firm manages Waterloo Towers for a group of pric vate investors. It was decided that R.J.Hobson, the Federation lawyer repres&nt* ing the students, should attempt to arrange an agreement pith Abraham’s , lawyers, Ha’rper, Villemaire, Gothard and Richter. The agreemeti would be signed by both sides. In a press release Ireland outlined the proposed agreement. ‘?‘%e students have requested that Hobs on approach Abraham’s lawyers to obtainan agreement whereby the students could stay until mid-August, the end of exams.” The Heboto firm would accept the July rent‘ payment and half the monthly rent for August,De-

The boat will be launched with a quart of Carlings finest. LifeLpreservers, bunting and a foghorn complete the picture.

The release went on to say that the Federation cqmpletely sup ported the students in this action. “While we are interested in pursuing a test case, we feel our first responsibility is to the students involved, to ensure that they have adequate accommodation, espy ially since exams are fast approaching,” said.

Blinkin’ bobbies‘we ousted our kops The kampus kops are leaving. Well not quite--the men are staying but the image is changing. The security force is reorganizing and attempting to lose those im, plied comparisons with Keystone Kops ,which they have carried for so long. Under Alexander ’ Romenco, chief of security and a former member of the RCMP, the security department is changing. At the moment the department contains 17 men, five interior men with duties like night watchman, and ten
extexior men--the familiar kampt us hops--plus Sergeant F red Cook and Romenco. Three of the men, those with extensive police werience, have been recently hired by Romenco. By coincidence several of tha are British. As of July 1, Romenco has received authority to hire ten more men, six interior and four exterior. Ads currently appearing indaily Kitchener and Toronto newspapers for men experienced in “invest@-
tion, traffic control, and building supervision!‘. Romenco added one more qualification: “They must like students.” The recently hired men are not yet in uniform. Current plans call for a snappy new uniform. None has yet been approved, but the favored color is charcoal green, Romenco expects the complete reorganization of the force to take about two years. “After all with ten thousand people on campus we are a small city,” said Romenco when asked aboutthegreatpushfor security.

The council passed one major motion. The porters will no longer let a student into a locked room unless the student can prove it is his own room.

(CUP)--The Quebec government last week heard Universfty of Montreal students turn thumbs -down on indirect representation on the. university’s newly revised governing boa rd. Students at the University of Western Ontario rey Aed the same way several weeks Ago to asimilar plan, in which a graduate, representing students, would sit on the board of governors. The student position at U of M was brought forth in thepublic-bills committee of the Quebeclegislature which was studying a new charter for the university. The new charter would make the institution non-confessional and would give it a more modern and democratic administration.

Two University of Waterloostudents were convicted ofpublicmischief Tuesday in Waterloo magistrate’s court and fined $200 each. Richard Mocarski, math lB, and Russell Chaplin’ engineering lB, both from the Co-op residence, were among a group of about 20 students who shoved a railway car along the siding toward the University Avenue crossing in the early morning at June 21. The group - - also set off the warning-signal with a piece of wire. The gondola car, partially loaded with steel culverts, moved only a few feet. The unusually long ‘warning-signal attracted the attention of a nearby resident, Waterloo alderman Russ Ledger, who called the Waterloo police. The unusual night signal also attracted the attention of university security officers Gordon Crooks and Bill Richardson. They followed the students back to Hammarskjold House where Crooks arrested Chaplin. Cl-o&s and Richardson walked Chaplin to the security office ac-
companied by a small group of heckling students. At the office, the students requested permission for one of their number to accompany Chaplin “toensurefair play”. Permission was granted. Chaplin and then Mocarski admitted to having helped push the train. Mocarski stated that he was the leader and organizer and wished to take the blame. Both students were then charged with public mischief under the Crirninal Code. The men Appeared in court for a pre-trial July 4,and were remanded until July 11. In court one of the student spectators , Marty McGinnis’ atternpted to use a tape-recorder. A court official spoke with McGinnis and the recorder was not set up. Crown attorney Morrison later pointed out the recorder to the magistrate, who asked McGinnis to remove it. McGinnis pointed out, as he said he had before, that the tape recorder needed to be plugged in, and that no outlet was available in the middle of the courtroom. The

Lawyers for Chaplin and Mocarski then spoke with the approxilnately 20 students, watching the proceedings. About 10 then left the coutroom. McGinnis was not among the group that left. With the confession of the students, Magistrate Barron said he could only convict them. The magistrate looked past the convicted men at the 10 or so students sitting in court and said, Fortunately theyhadthegood sense to activate the signals, for if by some fluke they had got the car rolling down the track, I’d have no qualms about putting them in jail. “Assuming there were 20 students involved, at $20 a student, that’s $400. Split that in two and they’ll be fined $200 each.” And even more severe penalv is the criminal record the conviction carries . But Mocarski’s lawyer, R. C. Sills, said’ “In my opinion the charge is very minor. Iseeno reason why they should have any difficulty in obtaining a bond.”

Haiti

Haiti is the smallest independent country in the WesternHemisphere. It is also the poorest, This is one reason that Dr. J. Winfield Fretz, president of Conrad Grebel College on campus, visited Haiti for two weeks earlier this summer. The situation, Dr. Fretz found, was t‘deplorable”c “There is a real need for aid,“’ he said. “85 percent of the population is illiterate and the rate is increasing rather than decreasing.” Many factors are hampering the literacy rate, said Dr, Fretz. The population grows faster than the

Their efforts at working might be enough to keep a family alive.” Also they are completely uninterested in learning. The agricultural program sponsored by the Mennonite Central Committee is well-received. MCC tries to teach self-reliance, Dr. Fretz said, but it is hard to wear through the deep layers of voodooism, the religionpracticed by most of the native mulatto population. ?F rightening” is the only way to describe the medical situation,
of extreme Haiti is an island of great need. “Its slums are no comparison to the poorer section of Toronto or Montreal,” Dr. Fretz said. “The poverty is unbelievable.” His visit served two purposes. First, he was part of a fourmember team sponsored by the said Dr. Fretz,- The University of Haiti has no labratory. It eventually asked for the use of the lab in Bird College, a schoolsponsored by the English Methodists, The University of Haiti medical school is only books and bare walls.

The creative-arts boardscored a major success Monday and Tuesday with its triple billpresentation in the Theater of the Arts . The three plays were Anton Chekov’s “The anniversary’ under the direction of Patricia Connor, Tad Mosel’s “Impromptu’ directed by Thomas S. Miskiewicz and ‘The dock brief’ by John Mortimer , under the guidance of Joan Gaskell. The dramatic productions were put on entirely by persons associated with the university--faculty, staff and students. ‘The anniversary’ takes placein a 19th-century Russian bank, The bank’s bookkeeper (PaulF rappier) is attempting to rig the books so that his boss (Jerry Parowinchak) will receive the approbation of his shareholders. Events are complicated by the arrival of the boss’s tiife(Dorothy Schlosser) and the elderly wife of an unemployed civil servant (Elizabeth Hynes). All the actors mentioned carried out their parts well
Paul-Emile Frappier still has a slight tendency to shout when he tries to project his voice, but he always is entertaining’ The one weakness in the play was the makeup of Elizabeth Hynes as the old woman0 Miss Hynes was far too spry and healthy inappearance, Ted Mos el’s play ‘Impromptu’ is reasonably well known, In it, four actors are thrown together on a stage and told to create a play. The action revolves around their attempts to do so, The players learn that the only way that they can succeed is to be themselves and face reality, rather than seeking artificiality. Special mention should go to Saskia Tuyn who convincingly plays a part much older than she is and to James Schramek who put a considera l~ole ble amount of feeling into his . ‘The dock brief’ is an amusing bit of gallows hut-nor as an unsuccessful lawyer attempts to find a way to defend a murderer. CarlE Gall as the barrister’ and Robin King as the criminal provided the highpoint of the evening’s entertainment .
The forthcoming week is important for the creative-arts board as it presents four more evenings of drama at the Theater of the Arts. On Monday and Tuesday at 8~30, the second of the successful triple bills will be presented. The plays being put on include Pinter ‘s ‘The dumb waiter’, ‘Passion, poison & petrifaction’ by George Bernard Shaw and Thornton Wilder “s ‘Pullman- car hiaw atha’, Paul Olinski, chairman of creative-arts, will have an especially busy night as he appears in both the Shaw and Wilder plays, and directs ‘The dumb waiter’. The Compact Six of the University of Western Ontario rounds out the week with three plays. On Thursday they will present James Saunders’ ‘Next time I’ll sing to This will be followed on you’. Friday with a double bill consisting of ‘She, I it and me’ by Tony Penikett, and ‘One-man masque’ by poet James Reany. The group is under the direction of Tony Penikett.

Folksinger Phil Ochs attracted a near-capacity audience to the University of Guelph’s War Memorial Hall last week. Much of the crowd came from Waterloo. During his three-hour concert, Ochs sang most of his best known songs: protests like White boots marching in yellow land’, satires such as his popular ‘Draft-dodger rag’ (“If you ever get a war without blood and gore, I’ll be thefirst to go”) * and the song he composed on his first visit tocanada, ‘Chang;eS’. v He also introduced three songs which will be on his next record, to be released this fall: ‘The crucifixion’, ‘miranda ‘, and ‘Cross my heart’. The style, the voice’ and the personality of Ochs seem strange at first. One must get used to them. This made the second half of the concert much more en joyable than the beginning, particularly for those new to Ochs. Ochs’ voice’likehis guitar style’ is jangling and technically imperfeet. Yet as a performer he had a presence -which held even those . who were not fans. His fans respect and enjoy, but do not idolize him, and he responds not as a star but as a person.

This book is a collection of ten essays by German historians on the Nazi triumph in Germany. For a long time’ the question of how the Nazis came to power in Germany has been one of interest to historians. Ten German historians have exanined this question with mixed results, in this volume. The first three essays seem to say democracy couldn’t work in Central Europe; parliamentary government was not a German tradition; and there was considerable antidemocratic throught in Germany. These arguments do not seem to stand the test of asking why not? The chapters on the parties, while describing their internalsituations quite well, do not cotiider the question of why a popular front of the left could not be formed. The essays of the Nazi takeover are straight history and show how inefficient the Nazi power structure was. The most illuminating chapters concern the early resistance to the Nazis, which collapsed after Mu+ i&, and the changes in the German social systa which mitigate the possibility of another Nazisituation from being created. The appendices are quite useful in providing chronologies of the German political scene.

A committee of the university senate, including three student members, is studying this problem - an important problem - in relation to university government at U of W. The Federation of Students was invited to submit a brief and did so in May. As part of an ongoing discussion on the problem, Stephen Flott, one of the student members on this committee, replies to a criticism of the brief by Carl Silke, a fourth-year math and physics student. Silke’s position was printed in the Chevron two weeks ago.

Does Mr. Ireland’s acclamation as president of the Federation 1as.t January show widespread student indifference, as Mr. Silke states? One has just to point out, as the Chevron did (January 13), that there was no one else willing to dull who had ‘Steve Ireland’s “admirable cap~acity for stating his opinions forcibly and yet staying friends with all s’ides.” “The 1966-67 _Student Council executive has illustrated that university students are not always capable of good de&ion-making”. (Carl Silke) Such nonsense does Mr. Silke’s academic background no justice. Since when does a political body lack the capability of making good decisions when the definition of “gocxlss is personal opinion and not absolute right or wrong!

I personally, and I’m sure Mr. Ireland also, welcome any ‘intelligent discussion (that does not mean that we expect agreement with our contentions s passed by Student Council) on the issue of university government. Our brief is hardly the last word on the question, but it is an honest attempt to consider a question which weighs heavily on the ability of this university to educate its junior members.

CAMPUS
Mr. Silke, your lame and disorganized attempt to add to the debate on university government has hardly contributed anything to the search for a more meaningful and efficient--in terms of theuniversity’s goals as outlined on the first five pages of the student brief-government of this university.

“The problem of being a student, of being for the society though being abstracted and freed from its particular order, now is reduced to the problem of securing conflict in the academic society. That is to say, the development of consciousness in the academic community is the problem of creating conflict within the conceptions in that community itself, so that they may advance beyond the limited static, dead concepts which rule us most immediately in our special studies and’, interests.” (Wayne Hankey, ‘A philosophy for kings and students: September 1966)

CORNER
”
What I find particularly repugnant about some university students is their lack of interest in the learning process--what Mr. Ireland calls “expediting their graduations “. What I find incomprehensible about Mr. Silke’s response to this is that he demeans Mr. Ireland’s statement--and at the same time remains so totally unaware of the real university and its students that he actually believes most students are here to learn. That is, Mr. Silke, not only to complete courses, but to learn more about anything that interests l3ElT-l.: The desire to learn has one neceSsary correlative: a very skeptical investigation of what is and a restless curiosity to know--not just one specific area, but as much as one can about as many things as one can, for fields of knowledge are almost totally interdependent. What is true in physics must be borne out in mathematics and must affect the deliberations of both the engineer and the philosopher . How many students has Mr. Silke seen or met who are vitally interested in more than their course work (we assume that course work comes first.)

It would be absurd to think that anyone is concerned with nothing but university government. But university government is part of the scene at the University of Waterloo as the senate study committee on university government has made very clear by their year of investigation. Students were INVITED to participate. Mr. Ireland’s concern with university government is a result of his workon that committee, and not a result of some psychopathic fascination with our university’s political structure.

There is absolutely no attempt being made by either President Steve Ireland, the other members of the Student Council committee on university government or the Student Council itself to “transform students into policymakers I’. (Carl Silke) Rather, as made quite clear on more than one occasion, the brief wants to t rans form the government of this universityinto one which can and will respond to a legitimate student point of view. The brief has spelled out that there is no attempt to seat an overpowering number of students on any throne of control, rather an attempt to formally recognize the right of students to a voice in those decisions which affect them.
Mr. Silke’s statement of minister of university affairs William Davis’ position on student representation in the government of the university does not correspond to the minister’s own statements: “...A story in the Globe and Mail which indicated the minister was opposed to student representation on a board of governors . ..does not reflect the position of the minister whatsoever.” (Legislature of Ontario debates s June 14, p. 4774)

ent community a fair on consistent hearing. Mr. Silke rather cloudily asserts that, should the community of scholars which Steve Ireland advanced come into being, it would mean a decimationof students who would be willing to serve on university committees. This stands as testimony to Carl Silke’s distance from the real world of our university. Already students serve on many committees of the university: ancillary enterprises, athletics, library, planning and others. Mr, qilke’s dean, Dr. W&E. McBryde, solicited his faculty council’s opinion in April on his proposed study of the firstyear curriculum and on “theappropriateness of inviting student participation in this study,” (Dean’s report tothescience Possibly he was off the faculty council). beaten track. Again, Dr. J. Sayer Minas, deanofarts, in statements on student participation in the departments of the various faculties, ethos rather than contradicts one of the basic suggestions of the Federation% brief. (The Chevron, May 12)
The (university) presidents are not opposed to a student representation. They are only asking for time to consider it.” (Globe and Mail, June 16) The childish allegation that student activists are planning a university coup falls flat on its face. Simply reread the definition of “university” upon which the Federation’s brief was based: “The tiversity government must seek to instil1 in the minds of its members an understanding of, and a desire to participate in, the radical activity of learning and searching, in addition to providing them withthenecry technical, adrninistr the or schol-

Once again Miss Savlov (another reporter) has managed to completely garble a report on thematter of policy at Waterloo Lutheran University with regard to the Coop (same page). Certain quotations appearing in the article supposedly made mearenot quitecorrect. A telephone conversation at 9:30 on the evening of July 5 just prior to assembling the article is apparently the basis for the report. Both quotations are notquotations. In future remarks attributed to me should be confirmed in writing. On Thursday morning I appeared in your office to confirm the gist of the report. In conversation with yourself and Dale Martin, I was assured that the report was of aminor nature and would bequiteacceptable to all concerned. Copy had apparently gonetopress. As print-
ed in the Chevron it is not acceptable. Our policy regarding residence regulations has not been in complete agreement with Waterloo Lutheran requirements. I would hope that in the near future our policy will be sufficiently &al- to warrant a realistic appraisal by governing bodies in WLU. Until that time the Co-op will accept non-recognition by W LU. The Co~op is doing its very best to assist with a critical housing shortage in the area. Once again, please check with people concerned on printed stories. ALVIN W. WOOD general manager Waterloo Cooperative Residence hC* The Chevron did not garble Mr. Wood’s words, although perhaps other statements, which he might have preferred quoted, were not used.

The bounds of silence The newspaperbusiness is one of the most frustrating in the world. And the most frustrating frustration occurs when someone, who has refused to tell you anything, complains to you that a story about him is incorrect. A few random bolts of lightning have indicatedto us that the faculty of mathematics is unhappy with the coverage given their proposed Rene Descartes Foundation. (June 16). This case is a striking example of what we mean by frustrating. When the news of the foundation first reached the Chevron, our best reporters were sent out to cover the story. They were misled, given the runaround or just ignored. When it became known that the Chevron was interested in the story, the word was sent down the line and mouths snapped shut like steel traps. The story still had to be written, and this was done to the best‘ of the reporters’ ability. Now we hear that the mathematics people aredecrying us as enemies of the people. Are they angry because we were in error or because we were inquisitive? lf this were an honest venture, why did they try to keep it secret? If they want-

ed to help the students, why did they not take them into their confidence? The entire university, as well as the Chevron, would like to hear some answers. The Chevron has always felt that openness and honesty was the best policy for all. It is only when openness is shunned and secretiveness reigns that stories convey incorrect or partially correct information. Why must there be the feeling that the student newspaper must be lied to and avoided? What is there to kee p secret? Noted political scientist James Eayers recently told journalists in Toronto that there is no reason for foreign policy decision-making to be kept secret. To do so would be to offend against the people. The same ‘case could be made for decision-making in the university. How can the students participate in the life of the university if they are not aware of events? And how can they be aware if there is a conspiracy of silence against the newspaper?

On Tuesday two university of Waterloo students were convicted of a criminal offense. The students were fined, but this is the least of their worries. Both now have criminal records. A criminal record is a serious impediment to job-finding. The person with a criminal record cannot be bonded. He or civil cannot join any law agency service, and related jobs are barred to him. This raises a serious question. Are persons who commit stupid or silly pranks to be burdened forever with the stigma of a criminal record? Such a case as this provides a strong case for amnesty or wiping out criminal records after a set period of time. The Pearson government has suggested this.
