The student strike at Waterloo Lutheran University over the issue of parity representation on the contract renewal- committee ‘failed to achieve its goal. The faculty association, who had previously talked of three to two representation, voted Wednesday night to allow student involvement in hiring and firing in only an advisory capacity. The strike was supported on both days monday and tuesday by about 70 percent o’f the 2500 member student body. Some professors complied with the student request to hold discussions on parity with those-students who did show up to class. A few classes were interrupted by picketers. Student supporters from U of W carried signs and marched through the buildings. Small groups gathered around each guest speaker. The grad school of social work closed down completely. Most of the business school also went out. At one point a business prof attempted to physically oust a student picketeer who tried to obilize his class. The prof, J wever was reprimanded-by security. Strike was called at a general meeting on february 11. President Frank Peters announced a week later that he “will seek formation of a community-wide commission to study the whole question of how much responsibility various segments of the university should have in’ determining + policies. ” Parity has recently become the chief concern on campuses across Canada. Students are demanding representation in all academic and administrative decision making committees. Concern with course content and the creation of a relevent intellectual environment demands / a voice in academic decisions.

fails to achieve The eternal conflict between university concern with research and student concern with good teaching makes student parity in administration imperative. The later is the core of the conflict at WLU. The issue of representation still centers around the dismissal of philosophy pro. Joel Hartt who was refused ,contract renewal last fall. Hartt is presently appealing the decision according to the rules and procedures set up by the appeals committee. In the meantime the appeals committee sent a letter to the faculty proposing a change in their procedure, in effect-denying the right to appeal.. “The faculty appeals committee finds it impossible to operate under the procedures of september 30, 1970. The procedures admit of legal interpretation. No committee member is a lawyer or has legal training thus should the appeals committee attempt to operate in a judicial fashion it would undoubtably incurr legal responsibility and legal criticism. “The main concern of the committee is to provide a forum for.

We do not believe we can operate in a fair and reasonable fashion if we must use procedures alien to the generally accepted committee structure used in our University. To do otherwise, would be the equivilant to behaving as a kangaroo court. / “The faculty appeals committee suggests : @ that the procedures accepted September 30, 1970 by the faculty council governing the faculty appeals committee be rescinded. l that the faculty appeals committee be instructed to operate as any other standing committee of the faculty council, l that the faculty appeals committee establish its workable operating procedures as is the case with the- other standing committees of the faculty council. ” The students’ rebuttal came as a-parody of the above letter, part of which states:

The new wave attempted to stand up and shout, but fell flat on its face. An impromptu general meeting called by federation _ president Rick, Page, tuesday to support the student parity strike at Waterloo Lutheran failed miserably for _ lack of student support. WLU student’s president Jim Lawson outlined the situation to a campus center audience as a boycott of classes showing dissatisfaction with the decision reached by the senate last friday on the question of student parity on the contract renewal committee., ’ When Joel Hartt philosophy prof

We do not believe you can operate in a fair and reasonable fashion since you attitudes and procedures are alien to the generally accepted mores of our university. To do otherwise would be tantamount to being a kangaroo-court in the WLU tradition. ” The ensuing uproar on the part of the students and faculty alike overshadowed the approaching strike. At a university council meeting the proposal was unanimously rejected, however the incident underlines management’s determination to get rid of Hartt, and in doing so directly.oppose student opinion. Under these conditions student representation has little _-hope when the senate meets next monday to make a finaldecision on parity.

at Lutheran didn’t- have his contract renewed, students asked why.. They found that they had no say on the committee which decided Hartt’s future. They decided they should and the strike was on. Lawson suggested to students here that they go to Lutheran to support the lines, but that they respect the rights of students wanting to cross picket lines. Paul Jones, strike committee head, retorted that “this is a strike.” He claimed that the commercial press erroneously reported the number of people on strike as only 30 percent, when there were in fact 70 percent of the stu-

dent body involved in the issue. “Come on and get some other . people to join you and come down and support the strike,” were the comments of Abie Weisfeld, sci 2. Nobody moved. Nobody moved an, inch. “Jim Chrisholm, unsuccessful federation presidential candidate suggested that this had “repercussions for all university stu.dents.” Psych prof, Fred Kemp concluded “If anybody should decide to get off there butts, we’re going out here.” Then the usual rock music of the campus center came back to normalize all.

Allen gave way-to irrate faculty and the adjournment motion was passed. “Well now we’ve shown you we can play your games and win,” one of the students called out. “All you’ve shown us is we can’t have students on the faculty council” shouted a faculty member.

Uiiivac discusses minority report < T

The university act committee met monday to discuss the minority report presented by the federation of students on the issue of unicameralism. The federation brief questioned the role of the university and its definition. Federation president Rick Page stated that he would like to see the philosophy expressed in the minority report, adopted in the university act. He felt there should be a “fair and honest intent state‘merit and a fair and honest act”. Burt Matthews, administration president, said he doubted whether the board of governors would accept the principle of unicameralism. He also added that “hell or high water” the committee should not delay any longer and make its recommendation. Committee chairman Lynn Watt stated that he understood unicameralism was approved in principle and that the committee was established to find an acceptable method of applying it. Watt later said that he hoped the committee would have the report ready before “we get into the summer doldrums”. He hoped that the board of governors would have the opportunity to deal with the proposals this spring in order that they could be forwarded to the provincial leg-

’

islature in december. Marvin Brown, faculty association representative suggested instead that the committee should wait until the june meeting before bringing down its recommendations giving ample time to discuss the issue. Larry Burko supported this view adding that weekly committee meetings could be held to enable adequate discussion to take place. Chancellor Ira Needles disagreed with Burko on grounds of poor attendance at the meeting. One member mentioned that staff representative Bruce Gellatly was absent. Lynn Watt commented that one reason some members are reluctant to attend is that the meetings repeat what has been discussed at previous meetings. When questioned by Carl Sulliman as to the difference between administration, staff, and faculty, Matthews replied that “administration and faculty are the same.” It was finally agreed that june 22 be set as the deadline for the recommendations to be forwarded to the joint senate-board of governors meeting. Future meetings will deal with the issue of student-faculty representation on the unicameral governing council. I

Gregory to speak for Fat Angel After about five weeks delay, Dick Gregory, noted comedian, writer and civil rights worker will be coming to the KitchenerWaterloo area on march 19. The Fat Angel drop-in center is inviting Gregory again for a speaking engagement at St. Matthew’s Lutheran church (Charles and Benton in Kitchener). Passes will be given to those people who attended the benefit dinner last month at which Gregory was to be guest speaker. The remaining 650 seats will be sold to the first persons willing to exchange three dollars for them. Profits of the event will be used to support the drop-in center and its building fund. A full-time worker for the center is another possible use of monies collected. The Fat Angel drop-in center was originally started, ,according to its policy, “to provide an atmosphere of openness and frankness where youth are permitted and encouraged to participate freely in dialogue, in recreation,, in op/

portunity, and in relaxation. The Fat Angel exists for people. The Fat Angel encourages interest in and acceptance of, and respect for other individuals for what they are. ” The drop-in center shares the two\story building it occupies with the young adult program, an integrated studies type program of education for drop-outs, and youth development program, the probationary function of the local community. The staff of the center see it more as a community center than anything else. They want to include senior citizens of several surrounding apartments in their programs. With another large apartment going up a block away this will be a must. Tickets are on sale in the central box office on campus and in record stores in the local community. Better still go down to the Fat Angel. 42 College street any thursday, friday, Saturday or sunday night.

Repression

MONTREAL (CUP - LAST POST) - Although obfuscation and creating confusion are integral parts of his job, special crown prosecutor Gabriel Lapointe recently unwittingly authored one of the wiser statements about the wave of repression which began to sweep Quebec on october 16, 1970. Lapointe was pleading before judge Roger Ouimet at the sentencing of 22-year-old unemployed Come Leblanc, the first person convicted of an offence under the war measures act. While it would not be right to make Leblanc the scapegoat of “the events of October,” Lapointe told the judge, his sentence should be exemplary: “In providing a penalty of five years for this offense, the legislator wanted to make young people understand that the FLQ is not a sport. We wanted to show those youths who occupy themselves with such activities instead of studying or working, the serious consequences of their acts. ” Leblanc received ten months, for “advocating the aims and principles” of the FLQ. The jury which found him guilty of having FLQ ideas in his head had acquitted him of membership in the “unlawful association” and of distributing statements on behalf of it. What were the “activities” with which Leblanc occupied himself. The activities which young people must. be made to understand are no junior Olympic games?

for -Quebec

According to a “confession” Leblanc made to police, and use as evidence to prove his FLQ connectiohs, the youth participated in numerous quebec demonstrations since 1968, worked for the parti Quebecois during the april, 1970, elections, and took a course from radical quebec historian Leandre Bergeron. He also attended two meetings of the front de liberation populaire and owned a copy of Pierre Vallieres’ “Ngres Blanc d’Amerique. ” That’s not all. Leblanc wore a red-white-and-green patroite tie, had a poster on his living - room wall showing jesus carrying a rifle, and owned a briefcase which bears a sticker supporting the Lapalme mail-truck drivers. Books seized at his apartment, and entered as evidence, included writings of Marx, Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, Che, and Tolstoy. Finally, it was known that Leblanc and his friends spent fair lengths of time engaged in “political discussions”. There are over 50,000 students in the CEGEPS, another 50,000 in the universities. aver 200,000 quebecois, many of them young, are officially unemployed. Thousands of others have jobs but feel they are working for nothing. Very many of them go to demonstrations, read Pierre Vallieres, and proudly wear the patriote colors. They all have FLQ ideas in their heads and they must understand, Originally, Leblanc and four of his , friends were to be among the

youth

“stars” of the show trials. Their arrest on October 25 was heralded as the dismantling of “an FLQ communication cell”. They were charged with seditious conspiracy and became known as “the little five”. It is now evident that they were not attackd because they - themselves represent a particularly strong threat to the state, but because countless more will identify with them and, the state hopes, will cease their “activities”. With the exception of a few bigname radical figures and the persons directly linked to the Laporte everyone kidnapping almost charged under the war measures act can serve as such examples. Most of the accused are under 25, I long-hairs, students, workers or unemployed, they have varying histories of political activity, ranging from passing interest to full-time movement involvement. Will the repression succeed in silencing the thousands of dissidents still walking the streets? One experienced observer of political movements in quebec, an older man who has managed to retain a youthful spirit, offered this cement last week: “The governments are afraid,” Michel Chartrand said shortly after his release from jail, “They are afraid of youth and of new ideas, so they put people in prison. ” “But they will never have enough armies and police to stop the millions of youhg people.” -

“There is no shame in- being an Indian”-architect by Bruce

Meharg

chevron staff

“There is no shame in being-an Indian. It is a badge of pride...We who have been born as hunters, we don’t have to struggle for freedom, like the younger generation of the dominant society must.” Douglas Cardinal told a systems design engineering class last friday. Cardinal, a Metis, served as a coordinator for the building of a 20 million dollar Indian education center in Alberta. He is the architect of the project for the 42 Indian bands in Alberta, but, in an article . in “The Canadian Architect”, points out that the ideas for it came from the Indian people themselves. Cardinal described himself to the class as a “soul brother to many Indians who have difficulty in coping with the immiand did not claim to repgrant society”, resent anyone but himself since repres-

tativity exists only in hierarchical systerns. “The present technology has produced an environment not fit for man.” he said. “The immigrant culture has no reverance for the land. ” Cardinal expressed disgust at the use of analysts sent to Indian communities to study them. “These ‘Indian experts’ permeate all levels of government when their own reason for being is their own positions. Programs are implemented by men without any understanding. People who have no understanding of us speak for us. We must speak for ourselves. We understand our society better then any immigrant analyst. “Our first priority is to preserve our culture, using our own teachers. The history of our culture is taught to us by the dominant society. Our existence makes them feel guilty of their past. Thus, we

must be presented (in the educational systern). as savages. It eases their own conscffnce’ These rascists are our guardians, but they are not fit guardians for their own children, let alone ours. “We have the right to control our own destiny. We will educate the dominant society to respect our rights and teach them freedom. The atrocities to our people are the product of ignorance and stupidity. We must pity their ignorance, not be pitied by them. We must teach them the meaning of life.” Cardinal described the recent attempts to integrate the Indians into Canadian society as an t‘excuse for the cultural genocide perpetuated on our people . . . in order to preserve the image of democracy and save face. “The immigrant culture is presumptuous to assume that we should conform to their society. Other nationalities in this country maintain their cultural bond.

We also have the right to preserve ours.” Cardinal argued that the Indian people have been purposely divided up and scat, tered across the country so that they could be more easily controlled by the government. He then explained more fully what he meant by the meaning of life. “We are much more sensitive to our environment.” he said. “The immigrant culture is programmed to’ live in a senseless environment. But we and’the land are one. Even though the reserves do not have material wealth, we have a better environment in which to live.” Cardinal believes that the Indian center in Alberta is a threat to the Indian affairs department because the project was proposed by the Indian people and not the government’s anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists, and all the other ologists who come to our reservations and make assholes of themselves”. friday

Canadian students can’t be as apathetic towards their own culture as many. continentalists would have us believe. The Canadian studies program at the university of Waterloo, which is the first undergraduate program of its kind in Canada, has been most successful in its first year of operation as far as student and faculty interest is concerned. Many other Canadian oriented courses on campus seem to attract students also, particularly professor Leo Johnson’s history course which has an enrolment of approximately 200 students. Nancy Lou Patterson’s half course on Canadian art (the only Canadian art course offered -on campus) attracted more than fifty students last fall. This course is being extended to a full years course for the 1971/72 academic year and requires no *prerequisite for students outside the fine arts department. Doubters, however, who still feel Canada has no worthwhile culture to offer, should turn up to hear Mrs. Patterson talk about Canadian art monday night in engineering lecture -112.

Illustrated by slides, the lecture will trace the history of Canadian art starting with Eskimo and Indian works, right through to the present, examining among others, the british and french colonial periods, the development of the nationalist style (group of seven) and the international trends of the post-war period. ’ The fourth series of the canadian studies program titled will intellectual environment consist mostly of guest speakers.

Given the obstacles which Canadian studies had to overcome last fall, its amazing that the program got off the ground at all. l The operating budget was miniscule and professors had to organize the whole show in their spare time. l Somebody forgot to put the program on the computer for registration purposes. - l The receptionists in the registrars office were not aware that the program existed. Now that it is obvious the program is of interest to students and could probably attract students from all over Ontario, surely it’s time to arrange proper funding. The students who plan to continue in the second year program next year i have, in consultation with faculty, already agreed on a broad outline for the course. The big problem now is how to fund the second year course as university budgeting is based on previous enrolment patterns, which opens up the whole question of how Canadian studies ‘should be run.

Why are there 337,900 american troops still in Vietnam? Are they being held there to secure the interests of Standard Oil of New Jersey, Union Oil of California, Gulf, and other american companies? These firms hold leases off Thailand and Malaysia and some are vying for leases off the coast of South Vietnam.

Pravda, mouthpiece for the ruling Soviet centraicommittee, says the United States does not want to withdraw from Southeast Asia because of the “huge oil deposits stretching along the whole coast of the penninsula of Indochina. ” The newspaper says that ten carried american corporations out large scale preparations in 1969 for the extraction of oil from the seabed surrounding countries of southeast asia -whose r@lleS depend on the US for money and firepower.

The US is currently extremely worried about ongoing supplies of energy to keep its industries rolling along:

ways lurking behind US actions is the fear of China and the desire to involve the Chinese in the widened Indochinese conflict.

The US industrial apparatus uses over 56 percent of the resources consumed in the world each year. And this apparatus runs on oil.

For this Laos was invaded last week. For this Vietnamese have been dying for over twenty years. Only the destruction of the US empire will end the present US equation that black gold equals death.

OTTAWA (CUP) - The Trudeau cabinet believes the RCM police (spying ) network intelligence let them down during the crisis brought on by the Front de Liberation du Quebec, according to an article in the Montreal Star (feb. 26). Defence minister Donald Macdonald said recently that both the RCMP and the armed forces have been reviewing their procedures for dealing with such emergencies. .

Conference

stresses

by Elaine Switzman \ chevron staff

The grad students of’ the geography and planning students deserve praise for the highly peopleoriented conference they organized this past weekend. If planning needs a proper direction, this conference focused on the areas it should concentrate on. People, people people and organization to become a motive force in controlling their own environment, is essential to peace and justice for all. Were the present ‘planners’-the management oriented, money hungry-listening? Probably yes because of their liberal nature but it did not sink in. The second day of the student conference continued the polarization of participants, that was evident the day before. As pyschology prof Fred Kemp a panel member discussing individual rights in the planning process summed it up, the participants were divided between those “people who want to change the system versus the people who want to destroy the system.” You had only to look around the audience at the facial responses the speakers’ comments provoked to see which side people were on. ’ The student panel on planning education was an exercise of the various Canadian universities offering undergraduate courses in planning to tell “where it’s- at”. Professor Achour representing the universite de Montreal and chairman of the panel felt his presence here was as the token French Canadian and noted the conservatism of his students who wore shirts and ties to classes. The questions directed to the panel were at first monopolized by non-students who apologized for doing so and expressed great desire to hear from students but continued on just the same. When students did begin to ask questions mostly related to the previous day’s discussion of the association of planning and the community, they were hotly put down by Achour. He stated that those students who had come to university to learn about the real world i.e. the community, had certainly come to the wrong place. To learn about the community it was the student’s responsibility to go out’and find out about it himself. The university exists to teach tools. The audience was not told by Achour how you relate these tools back to the community or how you perceive the community outside of officialdom if it is not a intricate part of your “training”. Perhaps these are ridiculous questions. After all who expects a university course to be relevant. Any university cannot be expected to teach about the community in ten easy lessons but a school “training” people to work in the community must facilitate an understanding or feel for it and that to some extent entails getting the classroom into the community. Perhaps the most exciting undertone of the conference was the level of social consciousness of all

people

the participants. Ideas that were kicked around, a few years ago would have to be argued tooth and nail were readily accepted as truths. The fact that the system screws so many so effectively was never denied not even by those members of the conference who were on the “inside” of the system working for social change. The sunday panel which included Kitchener Alderman “Boardinghouse” Villemaire and Joel Hartt, ex-prof of Waterloo Lutheran, professor Lorimer of York university and Waterloo profs Rich, Kemp and de’Ath was magnificent. Performances such as these are too few and too far between. Alderman Villemaire’s rendition of “some of my best friends . . .” was mighty fine. His follow up of “I have no conflict of interests just because I have 200 shares of Major Holdings” was however slightly weak. Lorimer the second principle actor of the piece was brilliant in his usual subtle style. Lorimer’s response to Villemaire’s answer to corrupt government “people participation” would not be a pat on the back of politicians and if it did come about as it is in Toronto, politicians would have to sharpen their divide and conquer techniques. As to Villemaire’s denial of political corruption in the fair city of Kitchener, Lorimer kindly came to the alderman’s defense as “a man who is lying down isn’t bowing”. Unfortunately because of his beliefs and his equal ability for wrapping it all up in rhetoric Villemaire was definitely by far the star attraction of the afternoon session. With all the questions directed at the alderman the other speakers except Lorimer and an occasional comment’from Fred Kemp were out of the limelight. The conference ended leaving many feeling ___ freaked out by the turn of events. I don’t suspect that very many people would have thought the two day session would take the direction it did. A thanks to Prof Leo Johnson for setting the pace with his introductory remarks Saturday morning. Many of the “technocrats” in the audience throughout the conference readily questioned the planning education and its middle-class values and orientation. Who benefits from their “expertise” the community with whom they are not in touch or the land developers who, it was suggested by a panel member view them as “alter-boys to land developers”, was questioned through out the two days. The fact that individuals who are not developers have no of few individual rights in the planning process (or any process) was a fact realized by most of the participants. As Fred Kemp pointed out in his workshop on family welfare we could not legitimize the workshop as there were no welfare recipients present. The conference could only be summed up as a success and I hope that next year the students will be able to carryoff a conference as interesting and as controversial.

Speakers The Caribbean association presented last thursday Geddes ‘Granger and Dave Darbeau, two political activists who spoke on ‘challenges of the contemporary west Indian scene’. They spoke on the present serious conditions in the Caribbean empha-w sizing immediate action to aid the problems of the black-man. The problems arising in the tropical islands are not new. They have existed for some four hundred years since the arrival of the first slave ships. The massive opposition of Trinidadians to their government has gathered around the black power banner and is in effect a contemporary slave revolt. The islands began as sugar plantations where slave labour \ prevailed. After three hundred years, these same sugar plantations are still worked by slave-like labour for the profit of others. Rallies, so far, have, been the primary answer to the situation. At one of the rallies there were thirty thousand in attendance out of a total island population of one million The struggle for the most part has been urban and black African. Any effort by the national joint action committee in Trinidad to involve the rurally based East Indian community continues in the face of strong pressures to keep these two groups divided and mutually an- tagonistic. Commenting on this division, Granger said that the African

Scientific knowledge has adopted a sacrosanct image of validity to the point where it now seems scientific knowledge is to all intents and purposes reliable. Indeed, science’s capacity to progress is one of the principal validations of its reliability. But as Grothendieck points out, “science has progressed to the point of replacing religion. Whereas normally, evolutionary adaptations have occurred over prolonged periods of time, technological advances tend to occur with increasing rapidity. The need for a response in self-evident.” Responding to a question asking whether or not he advocated confrontation tactics and violence against property, Grothendieck stated he didn’t think the scientist could be any real value to society by advocating violence to change the actions of his colleagues. “I am however, convinced,” he added, “that violence and revolutions are inevitable. ” “Governments,” he continued, “are no longer capable, nor are they free to act in the interests of the people. When despair rather than joy dwells in the people’s hearts they are powerless to change their own way of life. “But there is no simple solution to the problem of survival,” he concluded, “there are as many different means of coping with our predicament as there are people on this planet. The power lies with thepeople. ” Is science the infidel to all gods on behalf of none?

The laws of the islands, accord: ing to Granger, tend to be very strict. He added that the police can search, without a warrant, if they suspect you own a gun. He said the very military. uniform he was wearing at the meeting could bring him a prison term of up to ten years.

DOG Books,

198 pp. $1.25

At a time when pets are becoming more and more, popular, especially ,in this area and by a specific minority, there is a great deal of value to be had in reading a book of this sort, by a man as knowledgeable as Konrad Lorenz. Lorenz goes through the various character traits dogs have. He also traces through the various situations animals are put through e.g. being with children. The book however is not just another dry text on dog psychology, nor is it merely a sucky dog lover’s reminisences of past pets. Rather, the author presents us with some informative insights placed within interesting sketches. One of the more interesting points of the book’is when the type of person who owns $ets is dealt with. There are, of course, those people who have a high regard or even a love for nature. But then again, _ there are many who have neurotic attachments for their pets. L would like to point out here that there is a large difference between a neurotic and someone

who is lonely and looking for companionship. The two ends of the neurotic spectrum, (that concerns us), would be first of all the person who continually whips his dog for no apparent reason, possibly displacing the aggression he feels for someone else. And then there is the type that smotherloves their pet to a degree which is totally obnoxious. Lorenz in this book makes a plea to breeders to cease inbreeding dogs for the sake of mere appearance and instead to breed dogs with an eye towards intellegence. Implicit in this, is a plea to owners - dogs’ personalities are easily shaped - to treat a dog like an infant child is neither .healthy for the owner nor for the dog. It should be remembered that ‘man is never present in the , animal’, and yet some people insist on treating their pets as if they were their children, and not an independent entity in nature with the potential of a happy and healthy existence of its own. There are those, who for whatever reason, tend to think that

“animals are better than man”. It is not my intention to go into the pros and con of such a statement but rather to point out that these gentle people allow their animals to procreate unrestricted. Now don’t get me wrong. I have absolutely nothing at all against healthy sex but most of the time these animals have of-spring without any thought on the part of the owner as to where to house these new furry creatures. One also wonders what is to occur to these now neurotic pets when the present fad diminishes in popularity. I guess there might be some ,degree of protest from certain quarters. But, if you really care all that much for your pet would you allow it to get into the chemicals in the medicine cabinet? Would you smother any spontenaity out of the poor animal? Look at your pet, is it an animal with a life of its own to the degree that that is possible or is it just a mindless extension of yourselves? Lorenz does an ‘exceptionally fine job analysing domesticated animals. It is, however, somewhat, a shame he didn’t deal more deeply with the human beings who own them.

finesse in the spade suit. Two hearts were cashed ending in the west hand. West now led a small club. North realized that if he played the king of clubs losing to the ace, he would probably lose 500 points; but, if west had underled the ace, he could now make his contract. This reasoning may be faulty in that it means that east had opened in first seat with a very weak hand. If declarer ducks the club to the jack he holds his losses to 100. In actual play at the championship level, north played the king of clubs and went down five.

‘Failure’ has been the result of some individual fault - a view still held today but losing ground in the face of increasing automation. BeFore the advent of the computer the poor were mostly those tiho were physically or mentally Infirm, -the elderly, and those who were otherwise ‘expendable in the industrial economy in order to keep wages down and maximize profits - the ‘under-class’ as Marx called them. When computer control methods in industry spread during the fifties some industries, like oil-refining, chemicals, power generation, and even steel were able to move quickly into the new technology, for both the material input and the product exhibit continuousprocess character‘istics easily adaptable to computers. Advantages were obvious: greater capacity, high&- productivity, less tiine in production, I increased time for machine operation, reduced inventories, reduced variability in the product, less floor space, easier maintenance, lower cost per unit output and in some cases, even smaller capital outlay. In the machine tool industry, for example, numerical control now allows the computer to guide the drill press or milling -machine machine operation is taken completely out of the hands of the human operator. Not only is the skilled craftsman automated out of his job, the engineers who dream up Ithe new’ machines are also not immune. The most sophisticated examples of automation are taking over traditional engineering work much as they have takerrover the grinding, milling and boring operations, consequences Eorcing more people to take a critical look at the economic systems of all highly industrialized nations. Karl Marx’s linking of private means of production (for’ private profit) to the factors that generate unemployment and poverty may never have been more applicable fhannow. For the ‘poor’ are poor because of the inequalities and injustices of the economic structure of our society, and not, for the most part, because of individual faults.

lnadequa

te assis ta/we

The most obvious criticism of the current income maintenance programs in Canada is that the amount of assistance given is inadequate. Social assistance payments and unemployment insurance benefits are far below what is actually needed. And the degrading experience of the ‘needs test’ upon which as’-’ sistance is granted for welfare, family benefits and programs dealing with the elderly, causes some very needy people to neglect applying for assistance. Canada has attempted to treat pove’rty in terms of its symptoms rather than its underlying causes, a practice resulting in a hodgepodge of programs that have been called aptly ‘the band-aid approach’. Because we have not attacked the basic problem, said Richmond, the need for change in institutions and values, our efforts, at best, have been stop-gaps. Several organization inadequacies of major proportion-are apparent. _First the programs tend to be operated by conflicting or voluntary agencies. I Second, programs deal with specific groups many thousands of individuals or families may not qualify under the terms of different programs. -Third, the levels of financial support or services may vary significantly from program to program. Fourth, vertical integration is made more difficult because different levels of government and private agencies are responsible for administration. Fifth, government policy tends to reflect the ability of particular interest groups to generate public support for their problems, and the poor in our society tend to be politically inarticulate particularily in rural areas.

Right

to an #adequate’

Everyone has the right to a standard adequate for the health and well-being self and of his family, including food,

of living of himclothihg,

housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right’ to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age, or other lack of livelihood in circums tances beyond his control.

So says the United Nations declaration of human rights. _For me the concept of a guaranteed income represents the possibility of putting into effect the fundamental belief that each individual has a right to an adequate share of the fruits of his society’s production. . It is not enough to state that it isSpossible for our society to provide a minimal standard of living, which of course it is, but rather to state it is essential to do so. The prese’nt lateindustrial age is burdened with problems arising from ti mismatch between the neeqs of the human society and the pressures exerted by aii economic production, distribution and consumption system so complex and inter-related as to need the whole of the national--culture to / be organized around it. The Keynesian economic gospel that potential demand is balanced with available supply is now challenged by a growing number of economists voicing the opinion that even if this can be accomplished (it has happened o$y dufing war-time) it will still be impossible to employ’ all those with low skills and inadequate education. Besides that, Keynesian economics, by and large, tends to play down ‘the growing impact of advanced machinery and the results of continuing increases in the amount and coverage of the minimum wage legislation. Increases in the minimum wage decreases the attractiveness of marginal employees and further adds to the attractiveness of automation. Man the master becomes man the servant. In his book, the Guaranteed Income, R. Theobald somehow, in any given area where men and machine compete, the output of the computer is more ‘authoritative’, more ‘correct’ than man’s. Sp man’s role is rapidly becoming that of consumer, prompt obeyer of punchobedient card demands, apathetic observer of environmental abuse and human degradation, of wa’ter waste of pollution, lethal air, the continuing natural resources, the aimless misery of the unemployed and the underpaid, the neurotic defence mechanisms of the occupationally threatened middle-class.

Today’s socio-economic system uses a very simple mechanism for distributing resources : it assuqes that the overwhelming proportion of those who want jobs can find them and that the incomes received will allbw the job holder tolive in dignity - surely a cruel fantasy.

Necessity guaranteed

of income

So a guaranteed income is absolutely necessary, and for two good reasons. First, because an everigrowing number of people - bluecollar, white-collar, middle-management and professional cannot compete with machines the number of people in hopeless, extreme pov~ erty will increase. Secondly, a guaranteed income will provide justification for the distribution of resources not based on job-holding. We must -shatter the present myth which dictates a balance be maintained between supply and demand. The common criticiim of these reasons suggest any guaranteed income scheme would limit incentives. But economic motivation is not the, only reason for -- working. People, especially the children of the -well-to-do, are becoming less motivatid-by the prospect of increased income’ than they are by other potentials. For history proves that material incentive is by no means the only incentive for work and effort. First of all, there are other incentives: pride, social recognition, and pleasure in work itself. Take, for example, the work of many sci-

entists and artists whose outstanding achievements are often not motivated by the incentive of monetary profit, but are a mixture of’ various factors - interest in the w&k they are d,oing, pride in achievement, or. the wish for fame. This example is by no means coqvincing, because it can be said that these outstanding people can make outstanding efforts precisely because they are extraordinarily gifted, and hence are no example for the reactions of Jhe average person. Efforts made in the field of all sports, of many kinds of hobbies, are examples of other motivations to work besides incentives material. To what extent interest in the work proce% itself can be an incentive for working was clearly demonstrated for the first time by Professor Mayo in his classic study at the Chicago Hawthorne works of the Western Electric Company. The very fact that the unskilled women workers were drawn into the experiment of’work productivity of which they were the stibjects, the fact that they became interested and active participants in the ‘experiment, resulted in increased productivity,, and even their physical health improved. Several very well known authorities in the field of psychology, Erich Fromm in particular, feel that man, by nature, is not lazy, but on the contrary suffers from the results of inactivity. “People might prefer not to work for one or two months, but the vast majority would beg to work, evtin if they were not paid for -it,” states Fromm, who goes on to say that man suffers from the ‘disease of laziness’ which a direct result of the alienation which is rampant in all highly industrial societies. If work, in its technical or social aspects was made to be more attractive and interesting instead of the dull, boring drudgery that it is, then alienation could be Attacked and gradually reduced.

Alter

the consumer I

society

However, for this to be even a remote possibility the consumer society must be radically altered. Twentieth-century industrialism has created a new kind of man, ‘homo consumers’, primarily for ec_qnomic reasons like the supposed need for mass consumption which is stimulated and manipulated by advertising.

The end result is a voracious, passive man who tries to compensate for his inner emptiness by continuous and ever-increasing consumption (there. are many clinical examples for this mechanism in cases of over-eating, over-buying and over-drinking as a reaction to depression and anxiety). He_ consumes cigarettes, liquor, sex, movies, travel, education, books, lectures, and art. He ‘appears’ to be active; ‘thrilled’, yet deep dovirn he is anxious, lonely,. depressed, and bored. In order to implement the guaranteed income we system from one of maximal consumption .

must change our to ~one of optimal

A guaranteed income, which becomes possible in the -ga of economic abundance, _could for the first time free man from the threat of starvation, making him truly free and independent from any economic threat. Nobody would have to accept conditions of work merely because he otherwise would be afraid of starving; a talented or ambitious man or woman could learn new skills to firepare himself or herself for a different kind of occupation. A woman could leave her husbtind; an adolescent his family. People would learn to be no longer afraid, if they did not have to fear hunger. The shift from a psychology of scarcity to that of abundance is one of the most important steps inlhuman development.

A psychology of scarcity produces ,anxiety, A psychology of a’bundance envy, egotism. produces initiative and faith in live solidarity. The guaranteed income, coupled with the reduced working hours‘ of the future, would make the spiritual and religious problems of human existence ‘real’ and imperative, surely marking -the transition from a prehuman- to a truly human society. There should really be no need to justify the ‘concept’ of a guaranteed income as an alternative to the inhuman, exploitative system of income maintenance which -we are saddled with now. There are many different kinds of guaranteed income programs and it will take major research to develqp a justification for any one of them. But if we, as a society, accepted the basic philosophy of a guaranteed income, then the development of the actual program would be a relatively simple step from there.

“where the h&d to find sports items are”

We handle quality merchatidis for all sports ,

by Robert Garthsdn chevron staff

Behind the serene visages of the administration on this campus lie many contradictions to the impressions of competence and fairness our bureaucrats like to give. The following letter and analysis only briefly scratch the surface of the one example of the degree to which the staff as well as students and faculty are being mistreated at this university. Hopefully this story and others in following weeks will shed some light on the back-room injustices that occur here daily. Mr. McGlone: This will confirm our conversation of yesterday regarding your request for transfer to another lead hand.-As you know, during the past year you have had four lead hands, with all of whom you have had “trouble”. Therefore, we begin to wonder who the source of the trouble is and can only conclude that you must have a large share in the responsibility. You have also had your doctor make representatations on your behalf to have you placed on a day shift. Yet, when the University arranged an inter-view for possible transfer to grounds (day shift), you did not show up nor extend the courtesy of cancelling your appointment. Therefore, University supervision must question your sincerity in regard to your medical problems. This letter will act as a formal answer to both your medical request and your request for change of lead hands. Since most lead hands are reluctant to have you and since it appears that you are the prime cause of the problem, your request for transfer to another lead hand is denied. You will have the right to apply for any other day jobs that come up from time to time but no special consideration of your medical problem can be given, for reasons stated in the above paragraph. In conclusion, we will again emphasize the ‘need for you to cooperate with supervision at all levels. Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action. Yours

truly,

‘The above letter from Schmitz to Larry McGlone, a janitor and union steward at the U of W is open proof of the heartless attitude taken by the university% administrators towards - many employees. This appears to be particularily true when it involves those people who have worked hard and sincerely to better the working conditions of their fellow employees as well as their own. Could it be that the administration believes that if it constantly intimidates the hard-working union stewards other workers will tremble before them in fear and succumb to its demands? In addition to employing supervisors to carry on intimidation, the administration employs union members as lead hands. These lead hands often have the effect of dividing the workers among themselves and against their own interacting as “policemen” ests - but very much in the interests of those who run the university - Schmitz,, Sloan Lobban, Matthews, Pollock and his board of governors. In the first paragraph of the letter, Schmitz writes that since McGlone has had “trouble” with the various lead hands that he has been in contact with, McGlone “must have a large share of the res,’

ponsibility”. The specific “troubles” and their causes are not spelled out? Why not? Why is McGlone largely “responsible”? Because of health problems, which are not unique to him alone, it is becoming increasingly more difficult for McGlone to perform the tasks involved in his work as janitor - particularly when he must work from 12 midnight to 8 a.m. For this reason, his doctor requested that he be shifted to days. However, as it is admitted in the letter (second paragraph), the university wanted him to transfer to grounds. This transfer, while it would allow him to work steady days, could prove even more physically demanding than his present work. Yet the university questions his “sincerity in regard to your medical problems”, thus avoiding the issue of the nature of the work he would be doing and how it would effect his health. (Schmitz is also questioning the honesty of McGlone’s doctor who offered his professional advice to the university.) The third paragraph of the letter alters the university’s position and takes an even harder linedenying McGlone a transfer. According to Schmitz, McGlone no longer has “a large share in the responsibility” but he is “the prime cause of the problem” and most lead hands don’t want him working with them - their’ own union brother. Schmitz asserts that the condition of Larry’s health is henceforth irrelevant. What seems to count most in Schmitz’s bureaucratic mind is blind obedience, and efficiencynot the human beings who must work under adverse conditions. The quality of Larry’s work is not in qW?StiOIl! It is his lack of co-operation._ vision at all levels”.

But who are these supervisors and what tasks do they perform that help in keeping the buildings clean? What expertise do they bring to the job? It is the men and women who do the cleaning who understand the requirements of their jobs. They do not need soft - handed supervisors to -boss them around. In fact these bosses (as well as their superiors) are scavengers who live off the productive labor of others - those with no power to determine the nature and conditions of their work. Nor is it necessary to have union members work as lead hands to keep their fellow workers under the control of the bosses. ~This only perpetuates the status quo. Schmitz concludes his letter with a threat. Referring to the necessity for Larry to “co-operate” (nothing specific is mentioned), Schmitz writes “Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action”. How intimidating! In other words McGlone and his fellow workers should docilely perform all tasks they are told to do without question. Upon what humane and ethical principles is the university being operated? Where are equality, democracy, justice, and respect for the rights of human beings to work and live meaningful lives? Obviously the university administration does not hold any of these principles. Its prime interest lies in using and manipulating people to serve the selfish interests of a few - those who control the university and the society at large - the board of governors and their fellow/associates in big-business and big government. This is a matter which all people must show their concern - through active repudiation of this r situation and those who maintain it.

Deep down in the cellars of downtown, Kitchener breathes a people-oriented coffee-house. Here some community minded young people are trying to provide a centre for information. entertainment, community involvement and aid_ in curing “apathetic sciousus”. I speak of the tunnel-in coffee home beneath the YWCA on Frederick st. It is aplace where time,- talent, thoughts and feelings are shared to create a~bettercoexistence among people. Jeff Beckner, the director (we have to give him some title) puts in 30-40 hours a week into the operation without getting any money for doing so. He gave up a job at the board of education to devote his time to “more useful things”. For a good time of music for beautiful relaxing or thinking this is the place to be on friday and Saturday nights. The performers are first rate ranging from Perth County Conspiracy, Fred Baue from Detroit, Joe Hall and Mic Delaney from Toronto to such well known local entertainment as Poor Charlie Robertson, Jonathan_ Kramer and Terry Le Blanc. One of the most popular bands features a 14 year old girl fiddler backed up by an 11 year old drummer. There is a set admission of 75~ however if, some one honestly has no money they aren’t turned away and it’s not uncommon to compromise on 5Oq: or less.

freak basketball team. They hope to play teams made up of aldermen, businessmen and police as well as others. It is being done in the hopes that better relations could evolve from getting together and . having a boozeless, drugless good time.

Both the people involved in the game as well as the people watching could hardly help but feel the warmth of knowing that the whole world isn’t going down the drain if people from supposedly different viewpoints can still get together and play basketball. In december a “craft market.” was begun on Saturday mornings. This is where a number of area craftsmen display and sell their works. “This project is not only for craftsmen but for people who enjoy handcrafted articles, people who like to see‘what other people are doing, people who like . to talk about weaving and carving and painting, people who’d just like to come into our kitchen and enjoy a now antique 10~ coffee during their hustle bustle Saturday morning”. ’ The craft market is always looking for new people who make things. The organizers have been trying to get community-minded university students more involved in helping the inn, but many who come with good ideas don’t stay longer than two or three weeks. ’ They are hoping to organize a show including singing, acting, philosophying and spirit boosting to use for special high school assemblies. In the past they have made way for community picnics, aided with the Expo 70 rock festival, and helped numerous other groups in any way they could. They-hope to do more of the same as well as having more people do so too.

These are some of the many objects and crafts on display at the Tunnel Inn. All these works were done by local people and the Tunnel Inn is on the look out for more people who are willing to contribute to the displays and possibly sell their works.

I believe we. are a I party- of socialists, led by socialists. The’ socialist theme of the New Democratic Party may be muted but it is unquestionably there. AND it is nothing we need be ashamed of. We are still largely motivated by the secular-rationalist trinity s of liberty, equality and fraternity. We still look forward to the day, when these prin ciples will be achieved by the socialization of work in that society we referred to for so long as the co-operative commonwealth. __ This is what’ I believe in and this is what YOU believe in.

Life under one goverti*ment-a recurring vision comes to tantallize me with its logic, desirability, and ultimate stark necessity. I compare it with the world of today, frozen in habits of nationalism made obsolete by Hiroshima. It is the vision of One World-where the arms raceis ended, the pentagon a museum for the study of ancient weapons, a workable parliament of man in control of all lethal hardware-but a world still far short of Utopia.

Let us suppose that at some conference the United States and Russia had agreed on a design for world peace through world law, and had set up the machinery-as sketched by Grenville Clark-to enforce it. (We were on the edge of it, remember, with the Lilienthal-Bafuch plan at the end of world war II; there was also Beardsley Ruml’s “Great Island.“) Now, in my vision, recharged by Helsinki, tough, efficient machinery has been _ constructed for settling disputes between nations. It will not solve all the world’s problems. But it is strong and seasoned enough to stop wars, and thus make most of the $200-billion now being spent for armaments each year available for the looming problems of peace-the population explosion and the rest. Suppose we had, in sober fact, a functioning world legislature with an executive arm in sole control of nuclear weapons. What would be read in the morning paper? What would we not read? These are questions to stir the imagination, and I think I have an approach to an answer. Here on my desk is The New York Times for november 21, 1969, just four days after the opening of the Helsinki conference on arms limitation known as SALT (may it never lose its savor). The first section consists of forty-eight pagesmore than 75 per cent advertisements to be sure, but the remainder solid news. We shall look intensively at every headline. What stories would not be found if one world were a reality? What stories would be there, but in a different con: text? I will put the headlines of the Times in small capitals-some a little shortened -and then put the word out, if the story makes no sense in the world of my vision. Let us see how the stories might go.

Out. No draft evaders left. Well, that’s the lot. I have skipped the editorial page; as it carries no news stories. Most of the editorial items, however, have to do with the war in Vietnam and American reaction to it. I have skipped the obituaries and society notes, too. The date, november 21, was not handpicked-it was the day I first thought of making this analysis. It is probable that any other day in 1969 would give a similar result. Out of ninety stories, thirty-four would be out, or told differently, if one world were in effect. (There were twelve moon shot stories, which I have counted as one big story. ) But what kind of stories would replace the outs? I am sure there would be plenty of news, hot and exciting, good news and bad. If my vision holds? and one world is now, say, a dozen years old, the news will be concerned with such stories as the following (I never learned the skilled art of writing headlines ; so I give only (the subject matter) : World population growth rate declines again. ‘Zero expected in another decade. Pope makes no comment. Lake Erie still seriously polluted. New nuclear fusion plant continues without accident. Solution in sight for mankind’s energy problem in utilization of the hydrogen of the oceans as raw material. Moslems and Hindus clash in India. Crash program for cancer research makes a major break-through after $500million outlay. landing on *Mars indicates Instrument a wholly new concept for structure of the universe. Race riot in South Africa. ’ Fuel cell cars replacing steam. Last internal combustion car-a Chevrolet -to Smithsonian Institution’s antiquities department . Thirteen motorists in jail for trying to drive into New York. Drug traffic being controlled at source. All school children studying world language, together with a short course in semantics. Something like this in the headlines , when one worldis ten to fifteen years old: No arms race, population coming under control, the environment beginning to breathe again, world-wide communication improved, problems of race and religion still serious. Yes, Virginia, there will be news. STUART CHA-SE is the author of Men and Machines, The Economy of Abundance, Some Things Worth Kno.wing, The Most Probable World, and many other books.

With all the action happening around the university sports circuit, this department is a little late in telling you ,just how the respective Warriors made out in basketball and hockey. Better late than never, I’ll start with the all-star teams. In hockey the first team included Ian Young in goal, Ian McKegney on defense with Dave McDowall, and the front line was the Buba, St. John and Peterman trio from the Blues of Toronto. Our representative on the second team was Ken Laidlaw who took right wing on a line of two more Toronto players, John Wright and Gord Davies. Breaking the Warrior, Blues stranglehold were defensemen Hod Hare of Guelph and Dick Oudekerk of Western. The other two fine goaltenders in the league were tied in the voting so Ken Lockett of Guelph and Grant Cole of the Blues shared this position. Turning to basketball, we have our own Jaan Laniste (O-QAA scoring leader) and Paul Mazza of McMaster, joining Bruce Dempster, Al Brown, and Marnix Heersink of Western on the first team. The western second division team consisted of Warriors Walt Lozinsky, and Tommy Kieswetter, while Mark Walton of_ Guelph, Windsor’s Sante Salvador (also chosen MVP at the O-QAA championships) and Chris Wydrzynski grabbed the remaining berths. An honourable mention, or to the layman, running a close eleventh was Paul Bilewicz. In all the Warriors placed six all-stars out of a possible twenty-two positions, not bad for a school that didn’t reach the finals in either sport. Listed below are the final scoring statistics- for the Warriors in regular season play.

fusing Warrior playoff weekend, they did manage to upset their competition and take third. As mentioned in an earlier report, the first two spots were clearly reserved for Western and Toronto and this is how they finished with the Mustangs edging the Blues 30-24. It was a fight for third that was foremost on the Warriors’ minds as they prepared for battle. Team captain John Cushing had been saying that his young and improving squad would do well, but .finishing third must have pleased even this inveterate optomist. I Although squash is an individual effort on the courts, this victory at Kingston came from a, solid team effort. In the five seeds that made up the competition not one of our members had a losing record. Team veteran Dave Harrison representing Waterloo in the first seed took three of his six matches, while rookie Doug MacLean found the tough going to his likeing in the second division and fin.- ished with a 4-2 record. Doug took all competition he faced except against the two top teams who both blanked the Warriors in all seeds. Peter, Armstrong in winning his match against his Queen’s opponent helped the Warriors to a 5-O sweep victory over the Gaels. It was this sweep over their immediate competition that enabled the Waterloo -entry to finish with

for

such a strong hold on third., The fourth seed had Warrior captain John Cushing holding down the fort. Finishing with a 4-2 effort John again led his team both by exampli and vocal support. His sweep of games against Mark Nunn of MclMaster paved the way for a 4-l Uniwat team win. Lastly but not leastly in the fifth seed it .was John Moore keeping the Warriors’ point total from thinning with his four match victories. John Cushing deserves credit for the excellent job he has done in getting his team to their third place finish this season. Consider this a tip of the hat from this department, John, for a job well done.

Strongmen to-moffow This Saturday an unusual event will be taking place at Seagrams stadium. It will be the southwestern Ontario weightlifting trials. The university of Waterloo will be sponsoring these trials and the action will be ongoing from 1 pm and again starting at 7 pm.

Sue Murphy led the team in both offensive and defensive rebounding, as well as collecting 8 points. She ranked third in scoring behind Patty Bland and Mary Ann Gaskin. In the final outcome, the ‘Mat’ team hooped 30 points to the Athenas’ 45. Early Saturday morning, with two victories behind them, the Athenas met the tournament hosts. Two weeks earlier, the Waterloo girls had defeated Queens by a small margin in exhibition play. Saturday’s game started out as expected with both teams attempting to gain a sizeable lead but failing in their bid. At halftime, Waterloo trailed 21-23. The Athenas employed a man-to-man defense to stop Queen’s deadly outside shots, and were fairly successful. Throughout the game, Waterloo’s formerly effective shots from the floor dwindled as they tried desperately to close the scoring gap. Then, with only a few moments remaining, the Athenas sank four quick baskets to give them the lead. Guarding a seven point margin, the Water-

The WITCA basketball title returned to the Waterloo campus for the second time in three years. The championship was the inevitable result of a dedicated effort-by the team, backed by long hours of practice. Last weekend at Queen’s university, the Athenas met the top teams from the three other sec_j tions of the association to determine the league champions. The local Kingston newspaper ranked Waterloo as the favourite, followed by McMaster, Guelph and then Queens (although the Athenas had only finished second in their league ).. In their first game on friday, Waterloo met Guelph, a team the Athenas had been unable to defeat in the two scheduled games However, I the of the season. Athenas were out to win and impressively outpointed the startled Gryphonetts 59 - 25. The Athenas 2-l-2 zone defense was a key factor in preventing a closer score. Waterloo’s rebounding, led by Yonna Luypaert, was outstanding and allowed the Athenas to gain control of the game. Another important asset was the Athena’s shooting accuracy, particularly from the foul line as they were good for 61% of the attempted shots. In the second game of the day, against McMaster, the Athenas

last Saturday evening, it was evident that the Athenas would come through with their fourth straight victory of the weekend, and with it, the WITCA championship title. The Athenas took an early lead and never looked back. As with the first game against ‘Mat’, the Athenas’ defensive rebounding, with impressive of coupled fensive play were the key factors which led to the 58-35 win. The victory for the Athenas was a total team effort, as two of the four games played last weekend saw every player scoring at least one basket. The top five scorers, from the weekend competition were Sue Murphy (37 -points), Mary Ann Gaskin (34)) Patty Bland (29), Charlotte Shaule (23) and Yonna-. Luypaert (20).

For the two veterans, Mary Ann Gaskin and Charlotte Schaule, who have been with the Waterloo team for the past six and five years respectively, this marks the end of their college basketball careers. Both women have made outstanding contributions to the Athenas b-ball team and ended with impressive performances this weekend. There is a possibility that next year, there will be a Canadian National basketball championship tournament and if this becomes a reality, Waterloo should definitely be a top contender, according to victorious coach Sally Kemp.

The track Warriors took time out this weekend from their basketball watching and ge “\ era1 carousing for a sidetrip to Kalamazoo to compete in Western Michigan’s invitational meet. ’ At the last minute they acquired a basketball fan who took on the grave responsibility of writing about the outcome of the meet. Having not attended any track meets since high school and knowing only things about the team that I had read in the chevron left me unprepared for a good analysis of the team’s effort. .I can say that Waterloo probably has one of the most unorthodox track teams in Canada as well as probably the best.

Off inla rented

van

It is not often that track teams ride to meets in a rented van without the benefit( ?) ‘of coaches and comfortable hotels to stay in.‘ Heading out to Windsor on friday afternoon the team knew only that they wanted to see the 0-QAA basketball finals in Windsor, before their trip to Kalamazoo. Being friendly enough people they picked up a hitchhiker who offered them a place to stay for the nightin Windsor. Solacing themselves with various addicting entertainments *after‘ the defeat of the b-ballers left them groggy in the morning and the two hour ride to Kalamazoo didn’t shake them out of it any. ’ . But on arrival at the Western Michiganfieldhouse they started to loosen themselves up for the afternoon’s competition. It seems amazing that the team does so well with such a casual outlook as far as competing goes but their record for the U.S. meet, while not their best showing of the season, saw four. ofithe team come out with ,personal best records. h - ,

Responsibility

their own

It would be very hard to generally say that the team proves that self discipline in sports is more important than externally imposed discipline which some coaches take it upon themselves to impose and it would a,lso be hard to prove that curfews, diets and abstinence from certain activities in preparation for competition is unnecessary ; but the track$eams attitude and effort in the meet were as a result of their own wishes which must certainly count for something considering their record this year.

way, .

It was only two weeks ago that our Athenas’ journey to Calgary and the national championships appeared,to be in very deep jeopardy, but since that time concerted efforts by many individuals have ensured-the Ath-1 enas will represent Waterloo and-the O-QWCIA in Calgary at the volleyball finals. The team that spent most of the year working in the tote room and , gathering pop bottles will at the time of this edition have spent one day practising for the nationals and will be worthy candidates for the title. This is not the main reason why they got the support though-it was more . . than this that caused people to rally behind them. It was the question of the girls in all sports deserving the right to meet theircanadian counterparts from across the country.. Hopefully, the. fact that the federal government has seen fit to help with the costs of sending these vollevballers indicates a willingness to help with other girl’s sports next year, when it is proposed we have nationals not only in volleyball but basketball as well. The reason for nationals may not be obvious to all, but maybe an example close. to home will help. On our volleyball team there are two girls who have been chosen to thenational.‘B”team. It is only through the kind of top calibre competition- which Calgary will offer that these girls will improve and others be noticed by the selectors of the team. If Canada is ever to improve in world competition, it must develop its talent here at home to the utmost of its ability-national t.ournaments are a step in the right direction. This is why I sympathize with the athlethic department’s reluctance to finance the team’s trip. Although Carl Totzke and myself fail to see eye-to-eye on a lot of subjects, I agree with his stand that national cham-’ pionships must be sponsored. by the federal government. In fact it is imperative; for no school with restrictive budgets can afford to send their teams across the country every year. This federal sponsorship makes even more sense when you consider it will be the country reputation (if thats your trip) that will benefit from the experience gained by participants. I close with a belated wish of luck to the deserving Athenas in their. search for the national crown. a

It was the men’s turn last weekend, but now the gals take over the swimming lanes at\ the Waterloo pool. Action is now underway. With nearly the entire Athena team in competition and over 100 swimmers from across Canada taking part in the first CIAU womens national championships the local boosters will have lots to cheer about. The west has arrived with a very strong team made up largely of girls from the universities of British Columbia and Alberta. The west coasters were a big surprise earlier in february by upsetting the gateway city gals in the WCIAA championships. UBC will have eight swimmers, many of whom are among the best in the world. Shirley Cazalet of UBC has been on six international teams, won a bronze medal at the Pan-Am Games in 1967 and went to the World Student Games in Italy last summer. She was also voted the outstanding female swimmer at WCIAA for the past three seasons. Karen James also of Vancouver was on a tour of Australia and New Zealand with the Canadian team in january and holds a number of national open records in freestyle. ’ The team who has won the western title for three of the past six years is coached by Jack Pomfret who was named as the college swimming coach of the year at the men’s championships last weekend. Alberta’s squad is also a power house and should battle it out with UBC and Waterloo for the national crown. Sprinter Diane Gate a member of the last Canadian Olympic team should pick up a few first places. Other swimmers for the u of A will be Arlene Henderson a middle distance freestyler, twins Kathy and Debbie Kato and Glynnis Thomas a breaststroke and butterfly specialist. Two of the countrys best divers will be coming in from Saskatoon. Kathy Rollo walked away with first place in the WCAU finals followed in third spot by teammate Jean Levers. Saskatchewan seems to be quite a diving school as Ron Friesen took both the one and three meter diving for the stubble jumpers at last weekend men’s CIAU’s and was named the outstanding diver in college ranks this year.

From down east the university of New Brunswick will be fielding 11 swimmers, and their big, hopes will be in Jane Fraser in butterfly and Pam Henheffer in backstroke. Acadia has Janice Mattson who hails from Bangor, Maine and Claudia Crownin of Manchester N.H. The best swimmer from the ‘WIAU league is by far Toronto’s Marrily Stratten winner of three golds at the International meet here in january. The question is however, how fast do the western , speedsters go? Other top swimmers will be backstroker Randy Croome and Liz Daniel, a sprinter. Pam Kitchen and Louise Kennedy will take to the water for Western. The Waterloo Athenas dominate the 0-QAA conference team with 11 of the 24 swimmers.

On the bright side of the Warrior competition picture, the national wrestling championships were held in Kingston this past weekend. Our Warriors were represented in two weight classes by John Barry (126) and Pat Bolger (142). Of course both won their divisions and their total of twenty points was good enough to finish the Warriors in third place, Tthe top team at the meet was the 0-QAA who walked off with five titles and sixty-six points. Their closest competitor was the Western Canadian Inter collegiate Athletic Association who grabbed four titles and finished withd fifty-six. r Their top school and main con-, tributor to the team was the University of Alberta and not surprisingly they walked off with the individual school honours with a total of thirty-four points. Congratulations to both Warrior competitiors for their fine showings and also a nod to their fine coach Kurt Boese who helped to make their wins possible with his fine tutoring. In end,

It has been my/habit over the past several years to collect the posters displayed by various oncampus groups. Since I am a movie buff, much of rqy collection consists of movie posters. I have found that when you compare the prices of the federation under Burko and Page with the socalled capitalistic groups, you will notice that the federation prices are actually higher. Last year, for example, the Chris geography club under Fleming ran three movies for $1 .OO general admission which works out to 33@ per movie. Earlier this year, “burkorama” was running two films. at 5Oa: for students and $1.00 for non-students. On a campus where there are about four guys to every girl, it is obvious that many guys inust bring dates from off-campus and therefore pay the higher rate for the girl. The “burkorama” price averages out to 37%& per movie or 5q: per movie more -than the capitalists used to charge. In december of last year, the St. Jerome’s film club screened A lice ‘s Restaurant and The Bride wore black for .75$ and 5Oq: for St. Jerome’s students. This averages out to about 31~ per film. In january of this year, the federation of students brought back A/ice’s Restaurant along with Easy Rider and charged $1.00 students and $1.50 non students which averages out to 62~ per film or double the price per film of the supposedly capitalistic group. It is obvious that Burko’s promise to show movies “at least 25~ per movie cheaper than the commercial film groups” is a complete lie. In fact, now that it appears that the commercial groups are no longer running, Burke’s rates have gone up 25q: or more. Films that used to be 5Oq: and $1.00 are now 75qt and $1.25 or as with last weekends showing of Straw-berry Statement, $1.00 and $1.50. Never in my two years of poster collecting have I ‘seen such a high per film admission prices, and never such boring fare. The

Brian Huber a& 3 Verbose vefbositiar versus simple succinct sentences As an undaunted hockey warrior chauvinist, I was abstrusely intrigued by the warriors inexorable, prolific offensive and penurious defensive brigades which persevered in league play to effect the debacle of the perennial paragon, Toronto Blues. When our fleet-flooted, dexterous warriors captured their premier pennant by mercilessly routing Guelph “in a sincere and savage combat for a 5-2 decision...,” I was, among that “seething horde” of more -than 2,000 raucous spectators who witnessed with frenzied approbation that ‘ ‘glorious, tumultous spectacle. ” Indeed, a magnificent , delectable evening it was, as our resplendent warriors performed impeccably to mesmerize a disillusioned Guelph team in that “shabby yet hallowed sports mecca to a nation,” the Waterloo Arena. As a zealous, punctilious reader of the chevron-- who would rather be’ eviscerated than be denied his weekly manifesto, I was replete with anguish and disdain as I perused the ignominious game rqport scribed by a turgid, flaunting member of the chevron staff. I was appalled by the conspicuous deficiency of relevant material pertaining to the game itself. Other than the first two paragraphs the “story” was a hideous ’ travesty of sports reporting. Instead of reading about the warrior-Guelph hockey contest we were maliciously, informed of the chimercial, capricious nature of a certain prognosticator, Dr. Dumont, who appears to be obsessed with occult contingencies. , While this local “pundit” may possess a substantial degree of veracity in his mystic endeavors, I cannot coqprehend why he merits nine entire paragraphs in a story which ‘$hould have been written for th&$xclusive purpose of recapitulating? hockey game. I was vehemeritly rankled by the superfluous omission of the warrior goal scorers (with one exception) and defensive stand-

outs, as well as by the deplor- _ able, disgusting lack of any perspicacious observations on the game itself. From the sundry reports I have endeavored to read by this obnoxious staff member it is patently evident that he is more concerned with vaunting a prodigious vocabulary than in accomplishing anything else. Supercilious jargon and meretricious metaphors exude from his execrable articles which are tumidly dogmatic and in many instances diametrically obtuse. In the future, Cousin Nick, would you mind concentrating on covering the activity itself and writing so that normal people can understand you. We all know by now that your vocabulary is simply wonderful, so you don’t have to impress us any more. * / Larry Anstett Because of the severity of reader Anstett’s criticism, the chevron has allowed a reply from staff member cousin. Nick Dumont. -the lettitor Dr. Dumont has often observed (and I agree with him) that imitation, in contrast to the poet’s ‘vile mimickry’ which we so 1 justly condemn, ‘as well as being the sincerest form of flattery, also represents the potential presence of the germinal capacity for crea- . tive selfexpression. This being the case I should have been delighted to have received your flatteringly imitative letter, and but for one small detail your comments would indeed have elicited my (as you so irigeniously put it) “frenzied approbation”. And what might be this nagging defect, seemingly so small yet outweighing all other considerations? Permit me to assure my criticism derives YOU that from &me trifling personal grudge or from any hypothetical offens? I *might have taken at being unwillingly subjected to the disjointed drivel and pretentious cluttered verbiage, no doubt culled at great pains from a poorly wielded thesaurus, which is undeservingly dignified by the description ‘letter’. AIJ this I might have taken _ lightly in my customary affable way, were it not for the pernicious and dastardly slur which you have so malevolently cast upon the character of my friend and mentor Dr. Gabriel Dumont. To term this noble -and. worthy man “chimerical” and “capricious” and to dismiss his brilliant and highly mathematical pioneering work in the complex field of probability computation for precedented events as the mere lucky guessing of a wildeyed mystic is surely a slight which cannot pass unnoticed by the observer who is untrammeled by base and shallow prejudice. However, Dr.- Dumont is now, as always, benevolent in his wisdom and has informed me that he will not press libel charges in this instance; he has urged me, however, to let it be generally known that he cannot guaranthat his tee magnanimity will \ continue to protect anyone who should in the future venture to denigrate his deservedly good international reputation. If you now feel that your objections remain unanswered, I would be pleased to reply to your arguments, in writing, through the chevron office. COUSIN NICK DUMONT

I: Although it appeared as if St. Paul’s captur-ed the Bullbrook cup last friday, it was only a disguise. Really the Artsmen for the second consecutive time showed their superiority on the ice by downing a rugged Village West team 5-3. The Artsmen struck first taking. a 1-O lead with West tying it l-l after the second. West in the third took a shortlived 2-1 lead only to fall behind 3-2. Three minutes later, Arts added the winner at 1O:OZ. West fought hard to 4-3 but Arts capitalized in the last minute to finally win 5-3. The score probably would have been higher if it hadn’t been for two factors: George Swanson of Arts missed two absolute’ breakatiays then still managed to miss the wideopen net but not the post in the last minute. The s Village West. goalie turner did a phenomenal job stopping around, 42 shots by Arts. In semi-final play Village West advanced to the final by scoring with 8 seconds to go and defeated St. Jeromes 2-1, while Arts had to go to the 4th overtime rule i.e. pulling the goalie-to defeat a tenacious St. Paul’s team 3-2.

Vi11 South experienced ,their toughest competition of the season by luckily defeating Phys Ed & Ret 51-44 after 2 periods of overiime. Tuesday night was no easier on the south squad.

Russ Gnyp is not one of those athletes who train all the time. Most of the time he simply doesn’t feel like it, so he doesn’t, Although he ranks as one of the top dozen quarter-milers in the country, he says he’s not keen enough on track to let it take up too much of his \ time. After winning the 400 metres for Kipling collegiate last spring at OFSSA in a fast 48.0,seconds, Russ accepted a scholarship at Tennessee valued at $12,000 and. went there last fall. He lasted about three weeks before coming. home: “They make it clear that they own you down there and expect you to train all the time. They made .me live in a jock dorm and spend three hours every night in a supervised study hall”, saysRuss. A condition of the scholarship was that he report in September with no facial hair and a. well trimmed head. When he left, he justi- went to- the airport and flew home without telling his owners. “You can’t talk to those guys”’ he says. “If I’d tried, they might have talked me into staying, and there was no way for that, man.” Apart from these specific complaints, Russ finds that the States in general piss him off and he was conscious. of racial tension on the* campus at Tennessee. SC, he came to Waterloo and re-’ gistered in Arts. “It was the only place I could get in.” He’d rather be in a business course and SO he

wants to transfer to York or Western next year if his marks are good enough. If not, he’ll probably be back. The business course will be the first step in the pursuit of his ambition, which is to make a million dollars so that he’ll be able to do anything he wants. He feels that one day a big business deal will do the trick. In the meantime, he in an accomplished monopoly player. On his arrival last fall, Russ became a valuable part of the War-, rior track team which won the

O.Q.A.A. for the third ‘-Oar in a row. He liked the relaxedapproach toward. the sport here. “The guys who run up here do it because they want to. Down there they have no choice once they have signed their body over.” Toward the Warriors’ victory at Hamilton, Russ contributed a winning 46.7 performance in the 400 metres, and l&ter ran a spectacular anchor leg aS the mile relay team set a new conference record. As well as his 48 flat best in the 400 metres Russ has runI a 21.5 second 200 metres and is an accomplished hurdler. He plans to move into the 400 metre hurdles as his specialty ne%t summer if he , ever gets around to doing the necessary training. I For several hours every day Russ can be found in the campus centre growing his new moustache. I asked him why he spegds ’ so much of his time in there just sitting around. “I’m in Arts, man. Besides, there’s nothing else to do.” At home, he listens to the likes of Curtis Mayfield and Roberta Flack, preferring jazz and disliking heavy rock and Buck Owens. He finds the town of Waterloo an unexciting place to live in and often spends the weekend in the big city. During the week, since he has little work to do, he simply sleeps a lot. His studious roommate George describes Russ as “a bawdy chap, lacking in scruples and moral fibre. ”

It is like having a reserve that looks like a junk yard because the beauty in the soul is dead and why should the soul express an external beauty that does not match it? It is like getting drunk and for a few brief moments an escaping from ugly reality and feeling a sense of importance. It is most of all like awaking next morning to the guilt of betrayal.

future . . . And that is where we pretty well stand today. I think it was the suddenness of it all that hurt us so. We did not have time to adjust to the startling upheaval around us. We seemed to have lost what we had without a replacement for it. We did not have time to take your 20th century progress and eat it little by little and digest it. It was forced feeding from the start and our stomach turned sick and we vomited!

HAT DID WE SEE in the new surroundings you brought us? Laughing faces, pitying faces, sneering faces, conniving faces. Faces that ridiculed, faces that stole from us. It is no wonder we turned to the only people who did not steal and who did not sneer, who came with love. They were the missionaries and they came with love and I for one will ever return that love. ’ Do you know what it is like to feel you are of no value to society and those around you? To know that people came to help you but not to work with you for you knew that they knew you had nothing to offer . . .? Do you know what it is like to have your race belittled and to be made aware of the fact that you are only a burden to the country?

“We will weep. . .” E

DUCATORS, YOUR systems have failed, and are continuing to fail, the indian people. Your own statistics show that on the average 95 per cent of indian people fail to reach grade 12. I say our people are casualties rather than failures. Educators try their best to make us believe that we are the failures rather than themselves, and many of them succeed in damaging our children. Your teachers, your curriculum, your very textbooks are racist and are a vehicle to program our children into believing that we are inferior beings incapable of looking after our own affairs. You who reflect the prevalent attitudes of the dominant society, you gyardians of knowledge, principles, spirituality, environment, are not fit guardians of our children. Your programs are irrelevant to our people. We, the Indians of Alberta, will be the guardians of our own children which is guaranteed in our treaties. Our elders are our testaments and books since we are of a non-literary culture. The thoughts of the 42 bands and chiefs are expressed in our eight languages in the following words.

’ We, the people “We, the people of this land, from the scattered-areas of this province, will send our chiefs to virgin land, where we will gather together and sit in deep meditation. We will weep for the lost herds of buffalo. We will weep for the destruction of the animals, the birds and the fish. We will weep for the destruction of the earth,the land which was ours. We will weep for the poisoning of the air which we breathe. We will weep for the poisoning of the water which we drink. We,will weep for the destruction of our spirit and our pride and we will contemplate those people who have controlled our destiny- and the destiny of our lifegivers for the past few hundred years. We will weep for the destruction of life and the lifegiver, for we are life and when our lif egivers - our environment - is destroyed / we too are destroyed. “We will give thanks that we have survived, and we will look into each others eyes and feel the oneness of our people and the oneness of our spirit and we will reflect our heritage. We will stand on the land and feel

the roots which reach out from our feet and we will feel the winds across our brow. We will recall our rooted past and will turn to our forefathers and we will look inward to ourselves. Again, we will \feel the true meaning of the land. Again, we will feel the true meaning of the animals, the fish, the birds. Again, we will feel the true meaning of the air, which we breathe, and we will feel reborn. “We will join together in ceremony around the offering pole and look up to the Great Spirit and relive the ceremonies that grew from our association and love of our land. With the help of our medicine men, we will raise our spirits, for we are burdened with a heavy task. When we feel the oneness of our total environment of our brethren and ourselves, we will gather around a ceremonial fire. Where there were many bands, there will be eight tongues, but the eight tongues will learn to speak as one tongue, one voice - and here, we, ourselves, will determine the destiny of our own people. We will call together, from each band, men to be trained as warriors in the indian way. We will teach them how we have survived for thousands of years on this land. We will teach them the true meaning of being a warrior in spirit. We will give him the pride and self-esteem which we hold here in this sacred place, and we will teach him how to use the old weapons of survival.

Instruct

our warriors

“But, we have an even greater task in the instruction of our warriors. We will have to teach him to survive in the world of today. We will equip him well with all of the tools for surviving in the world of today. They will not be dull weapons, they will be sharp and useful. We will improve and hone these weapons, for our survival and our stature as a people. “The buff alo and the moose have given us_ food, clothing and shelter in the past. The buffalo is gone, the moose is going. We look to the dominant society for our food, clothing and shelter. When we hunted the moose, we knew the moose. We thought like the moose, indeed, we-were the moose. The hunter and the hunted were one. But though we were one, as all life is one, we were still apart - we were men and we respected the moose as a lifegiver of food, clothing and shelter.

Cardinal

“NOW because of the immigrant culture, our way of life has changed. We look to the dominant society for our food, clothing and shelter. We must know the ways and the habits of the dominant society, in the same manner which we learned the moose. We must think like them, we must be them, in order to survive. We must become one, but like the moose and the man we have our own identity as men, and as men we are proud of who we are. The same respect we hold for the moose we <will hold for the dominant society for they are our new lifegivers, we cannot deny their existence. They are there.

Teach

to love

“But, not only will our warriors be dedicated to the survival of our people, but, they will also be dedicated to teaching the immigrant culture the love the Indian feels for this land. We will teach the immigrant culture to love the animals, the-fish, the birds. We will teach the immigrant culture to love the land, the earth, which we- love. We will teach the immigrant culture to love the air which we all breathe and. the winds we feel across our brow. We will teach him to love the clear waters and the mountain streams. We will teach him to love this land as we love this land. -Our very survival depends upon this task. “When we let others destroy our own environment, our own lifegiver - we desttdy ourselves. For our own survial, we must, teach the immigrant culture to -love as we love, for we have been here thousands of years and theirs is but a short time. We have survived great suffering and loss but we are a great people, the true people of this land, and the great suffering and hardships which we have experienced in the last few hundred years and the fact that we haye survived will give us great strength, endurance and tolerance, so thfat we will be an even greater people. The future achievements of our people will be even greater than the past.” This was a speech made by Cardinal to the Canadian education association. Cardinal (see report on page 3) is a 36 year-old Red Dear, Alberta architect who is a spokesman for the Indian Association of Alberta. -

You’ll read it friday and try to make a comparison that is impossible because the weather friday will be as different then as the word “trouble” is from “pentangle”.

ROFESSOR MEPHESTO was a pacifist, and today’s lecture had been about war. Since he did not ‘have a regular question-and-answer period in his lectures, he very often posed knotty problems to himself and then answered them, as he was doing today in his closing remarks. “I spent last summer in Stillwater, Maine, with a friend of it’s a place of incredible beauty, Stillmine, Tab Hutchins... water, you’ll want to go there sometime... well, Tab .isn’t, by our pompous standards, an ‘educated’ man... I mean he’ doesn’t have the robes and the scrolls, and. he-doesn’t speak in polysyllables, but I can tell you this: Tab Hutchins has one of ‘the finest minds of our time. An auto-mechanic by trade, a positivist-humanist by choice, and- a scholar of the classics by inclination. I always get a little thrill somehow to see old Tab crawling under one of the dilapidated trucks that the farmers around Stillwater bring for him to fix-crawling under, a volume of Plato sticking out of one pocket a volume of Aristotle out of the other. “Well, one day Tab and I were talking and he said to me, in that serious way of his: ‘Meph, you say you’re against war. You say that war never accomplished anything.’ “I said, ‘That’s what I say, Tab.’ “He drew on his old briar, thoughtful for a moment, and then he said: . “‘Will you answer me one question, Meph?’ “‘I’ll answer it if I can, Tab,’ I said. “Tab -said, ‘Then what about the american revolution? Do you mean to say-that didn’t accomplish anything?’ “I said, ‘Do you know who it was we fought that war against, Tab?’ “‘Of course, I do,’ he said, ‘the British.’ “Well, I didn’t say anythingmore for a while, and I think Tab felt that he had me all right, the way he was watching me out of the corner of his eye, and drawing on his old briar. I was looking at the truck he-had been working on all morning. “‘How’s that truck running now, Tab?’ I asked him. “‘She’s running fine now, Meph,’ he said, ‘had to tear down the differential a little, and clean a few cogs: and ’ now she’s believe that answers my question.’ running finebut I don’t “‘I’ll .answer your question, Tab,’ I said, ‘but let’s take a drive first.* I think we ought to give that truck a pragmatic test before returning it to its owner. I’ll drive,’ I said. “Well, we got in and pretty soon I had the feel of the old _ bus, and we were going along at a great rate, down country roads, and across, and back, along the highway for a while. It’s beautiful. countryside around there, and I remarked on it / to Tab. “He said, ‘Yes, it is.’ “I sa.id, ‘Do you know where we are, Tab?’ “He said, ‘Sure I do.’ \ “I said, ‘All right,’ and we drove on fox wliile, and pretty soon I asked him again, ‘How do things look out there now, Tab?’ “‘Pretty much the same as they did when you asked before,’ he said. ’ “I said, ‘Do you know where we are?” “Tab said, ‘Yes, I do.’ “I said, ‘Where are we, Tab?’ “He said, ‘Do you want-a technical answer?’ “I said, ‘Yes, I do.’ * “He said, ‘We’re on the planet world, of solar system number continent, USA western. hemisphere, north american one, , and I should say about ‘seven miles northeast of Stillwater, \ Maine.’ _ “I said, ‘You’re wrong, Tab. We’re not in the USA now; we crossed the border into Canada about ten minutes ago. Canada is still a British protectorate, Tab, and it’s exactly what we didn’t accomplish by the american revolution-and yet you can’ttell the difference! I guess that answers your question, doesn’t it, Tab?‘.”
