\Nlore goodies In an interview with the chevron last Wednesday afternoon, university president Burt Mat-thews confessed that the student members of the arena board may very well be appointed by the societies. The wording of , the referendum that will be sent to all , students late next week is such 1 that it would lead most people I to believe that their representatives are to be elected in a general faculty election. Federation .president Andrew Telegdi and the presidents of the six societies met with Matthews over one week ago, at which time \~he agreed to submit to their demands of society control. These presidents believe that there are already too many elections on this campus and that the students would not co-operate -in the arena question . They wanted the societies to be able to handle the representation issue in whatever way they wish. This means that the society executive may appoint. someone from within -their own executive, their council, or if the mood would strike them, they could hold a -- general election in their constituency. Previously, Matthews had been

adamant about students being elected to the board. He feared that the societies would use this new-found power frivolously and tamper with the make-up of the board if they happened to disagree with any particular issue. <He wanted to ensure that the societies could not remove any board members only to control a certain vote. To secure the board againstsuch activity, Matthews plans to, have written into the constitution a clause dealing with recall of members. He does not want the societies to recall members only if they are going to vote against the societies wishes in a particular issue. It will be interesting to see how he plans to work that out. The chevron also asked Matthews about the plight of students that do not belong to any society. He seemed puzzled by the ideaafter all most students do belong to societies. However, some students have difficulty finding value in the activities of the societies and therefore demand a refund on their fee. These students will not be represented by any society on the arena board. I Matthews suggested that it was up to these individual students to protest their position and demand -------I -I--L’----x-:-- con- - -general eltx~ions in LL meu. stituency. . The replies to t,he referendum are due back. in the secretariat’s office on April 5, so while students are off campus for the summer, or busy with exams, more important issues will be decided-not whether or not to have an arena, but how to manage the one we may very well get. --swan

The five hundred people in attendance decided that Morgentaler-was not the, guilty party in the abortibn issue. The makers of the law should be the ones to be tried.

Feds again, , and again After a stormy term of office, federation president Andrew Telegdi welcomed a new council under his wing at the annual joint meeting held last Monday evening. The new c-ouncil quietly listened to the words of the president during his “address” and then, just as quietly, voted in all of his selections for the new executive. In his presidential address Telegdi gave a capsule-course on university government and how it works-and how those workings are discriminatory to students. He baffled many of the new coun-cillors with facts and figures that reeled off at an alarmingrate. Telegdi expressed hope for the future and the success of -the new council to meet any issues that may arise in the coming year. .The new council will have a chance “to get together” and get to know each other well during the last week in March *when they retire to Silver Lake for a quiet

“I didn’t really come here to make any speeches, and I didn’t come here to do combat- with you. ’ I really came to get you involved.” . These were the opening words of Mike Carson, an organizer for the Ontario@ Anti-Poverty Organization, who spoke at the HHELP Conference, ’ held on Thursday February 28 and Friday March 1 at Saint Paul’s College. The two day Conference on Poverty was organized by third year applied social science students from Renison College and was atten’ded by over one hundred people, many of whom were poor people from the community. The conference opened with a presentation from Agnes Higgins, who has been a nutritionist at the Montreal Diet Dispensary Clinic for the past twenty-seven years, on Nutrition and the Poverty Cycle.Higgins showed that- there was a direct correlation between IQ and the size of newborn babies,-which is why nutrition is so important for expectant mothers.. Because the poor cannot spend as much on food as the rich, proper nutrition quite often becomes a problem. The clinic Spends most of its time . working with expectant mothers, to make sure that they receive the proper foods. Director of Community Renewal Development for the city of . Toronto, Paul Ringer, opened the, af terno’on session by discussing the problems the poor had in obtaining housing. He admitted that anyone with an income of less than $12,000 per year had very little chance of owning their own home. As an example on one home in Toronto that sold for $3500 in 1961, $7500 in - 1967, $30,~00 in 1969 and $70,000 in 1973. He felt that the only way to alleviate the housing help problems for the poor was “involvements of the state. ,-involvements of government ; and one of the real problems with kinds of solutions that are necessary if the things that go along with those solutions, one of which is a bureaucracy.” Ringer’s presentation was followed by a short film entitled Two Ways Out, that dealt/with the hazards of having only one exit in a house in case ‘of fire. This was sponsored by the Waterloo ‘Fire Department. The final speaker of the day was Co-ordina tor of Special Education for Waterloo County, Victor Graham, who gave an interesting and informative speech on some of the questions being asked about the educational system-questions that are not new. For example, in 1898 the presidential address at the Ontario Medical Association’s annual meeting called for an end to cramming and competition in schools because they were detrimental to learning. Seventy

years later-in 1968-the Report of the Ontario Committee on aims and objectives in Education recommendedabolishing class standings, examinations, marks, grades, the distinction between elementary secondary, university and the streaming of students into academic, technical or commercial directions. According to Graham “evidence is now being produced that clearly indicates that teaching techniques which threaten, shame and raise anxiety brings real learning to a flat-footed stop and stimulates panic, memorization and evasion. The - educational structure of Canada and the United States still favours themiddle class agreeable child and distresses all others. This is estimated to waste about 85 percent of some five million school children in this country. The first encounter to our social institutions by children is in many cases negative. Y -Experimental schools have been testing a variety of schemes in meeting the needs of the distractable, restless children. There-is a high school called the Nova system in Florida that has classes only half the school day, leaving the remainder or students to pursue research independently, or else just to mingle with other students. Students for this school were drawn one-third from the professional class, one third from the blue collar class and onethird from the slums and 92 per: cent of the first graduating class, went to university. On Friday Agnes Higgins started the day with a discussion of _ Stretching the Food. Dollar. Folllowing her presentation Mike Carson spoke out that wages are not, as it is commonly believed, the cause of inflation. For example the cost of labour on a General Electric toaster is only 6 percent of the retail cost of the article. Carson also pointed out that if you doubled the wages of every United Automobile Worker! on the assembly line, the cost of the automobile would only rise 2 percent. He said his organization was fighting for a guaranteed adequate annual income. Friday afternoon featured a panel discussion on Health and Welfare, Recreation, Mental Health, Senior Citizens and Corrections, and the conference wound to a close shortly .after 4:30pm. One of the- positive things that came out of the conference was the decision to set up a regional AntiPoverty , Coalition for the Kitchener-Waterloo area. There will be an organizational meeting for_ this group on Monday, March 18th; at 8:00 pm at the St. John’s Anglican Church. ,

His plight was, however picked up, by professor Grayson who repeated the well, known truth that “if an ironclad procedure is attached to firing tenured staff then the effects will- be felt by contracting the junior faculty.” But despite the progressive remarksmade by Cummings and Grayson there seems little hope of the AFC starting any concerted action tosave the competent junior faculty as it is well known that the tenured professors by far outnumber the non-tenured.

Organizer #or the- Ontario Anti-Poverty .Organization, Mike Carson spoke to a group of students and actu$ ‘poor’ people early this month in St. Pauls College.

Faculty to give up raise? /

Jay Minas, prospective dean of Arts, questioned the validity of tenure at Tuesday’s Arts Faculty Council (AFC) -meeting by declaring “no tenure may be a very good thing”. His comment, whether facetious or not, will certainly be considered by professors when they vote between Minas and history professor Ken Davies for the new dean of Arts. Minas was proffering his views on tenure in response to AFC’s fear of the implications contained in the revised tenure review policy of the university. AFC was asked by the tenure review committee to examine the policy and suggest changes before it went to senate. In true academic fashion, the distinguished pundits decided to postpone the matter. Philosophy professor Jan Narveson asked the committee, what were the guarantees of tenure? To this vested utterance, committee member Mike Mc-

Donald coul’d -only offer the assurance of a complex firing procedure. The greatest concern, in the eyes of these enlightened academics, was what would happen if a tenured professor is found to be “redundant” because the course he or she is teaching is no longer of interest to students, and hence a loss of income. Suggestions as to how to resolve this grave problem of firing “redundancies” for financial reasons centered on the dire necessity of safe-guarding tenure and the only solution would. be to make- the firing impossible. Lecturer Judy Wubnig put forth the unique contention that if a procedure for reviewing tenure is indeed established then the university. administration ‘would be !‘encouraged to rearrange financing”. Wubnig, of course, overlooks the fact that the university has already “rearranged financing” in the faculty’ of Arts with the future releasing of three to five Canadian studies professors (it should be noted that the threatened professors are mostly junior faculty). . Narveson and Wubnig no doubt due to their philosophical background, could not be brought to discuss the reality of the plight faced by the faculty of Arts: specifically that of a deficit budget due to committed expenses in faculty salaries. It is alleged that the only way for Arts to overcome its fina+al crisis is by releasing, faculty members. The first faculty members to go will of course be the non-tenured ones. The only feasible way of countering the above situation could be as expressed by English professor -Larry Cummings, the voluntary decrease in salaries of those who are tenured so as to benefit the threatened junior faculty. In other words, a voluntary fund would be created so as to “retain the competent individuals .” C-ummings’ opinion was of course taken lightly by the highly paid academic luminaries.

CNTU organizer Bill Morrison, in the first of the federation’s \ current L campus forum series, decried the apathy of the educated towards the labour movement. Students and university graduates tend to look upon themselves professional, too good to associate with workers, when in reality they are. simply workers without overalls. Students are trained to be individuals-but they are still trained or programmed. They may end up in high paid jobs but they are still controlled‘. Even professors will learn that they are no different than other worker,s. For if a professor doesn’t suit the establishment he is soon out of a job. “It’s bloody sad” he said, “when you see the inactivity in the universities and realize that these people will be the politicians of tomorrow .” He pointedto the recent federation. elections on this campus to back up his statement.. Despite the fee hike of last year and threats -of another hike this year the main issue- of the election seemed to be the amount of beer available to, the students. “It seems that students can’t even look after themselves let alone lend any help to the labour movement.” he continued. He drew on his experience in the labour movement and with the Labour Party in Britain to explain the need of the labour movement for educated members. Labour party members had trusted the leadership to carry out the ideas of the rank and file but discovered too late that the programs had been water’ed down beyond recognition. Morrison said that workers have learned that they must change the system or else they go on fighting forever for tiny things like pay raises. They will never be able to get down to the real work of making life better for everyone. There is a real need for educated people to help the workers in their -bid to take over and run things in their interests. With the fees rising as quickly as they are it is becoming more and more difficult for workers’ children to go to university. He pointed to research that shows that less than 5 percent of the students at university come from families with an income of. ’ less than $10,000 while the average Canadian wage is ’ somewhere around $S;OOO. “Students should decide which side they are on,” he said, “for the crunch is coming. The workers are going to take control.” While there is a way forward -together for students and workers, ‘Morrison is not very optimistic. “In other countries students lead the rebellion against the status quo. Here they can’t even organize themselves to fight a fee hike.” -jack

In- these two articles, , the chevron’s .London correspondent Jon McGill examines this and other issues surrounding the ‘election. The first, written before the election, analyses the Heath government’s record since its up-set victory in 1970; the second, written after Harold Wilson’s less than triumphant return to the prime ministership - discusses the post-election maneoverings typical of minority governments, and places Jeremy Thorpe’s middle of the road Liberal party in its thorny position with no , program to promote, and no permanent following to assure its success in future elections. J

Britain’s last General Election was in 1970, and at tiat time the major issues were Labour nationalization programs,the entry of Britain into the Common Market, and inflation. In what was commonly regarded as a “surprise” result, the Conservative Party, led by Edward Heath, took office from the Labour incumbents, with a majority of 30 seats. That result ran-contrary to the polls which gave Harold Wilson a preelection victory margin of the same size. Having been given the reigns of power by an electorate largely fed up with the waverings of the Labour Party, Heath’s Conservatives made capital from the “inep5tude” of- Labour, an incompetence which bore some (but far from all) : responsibility for the economic ill-health of . Britain. Much of Heath’s early period as Prime Minister was spent dragging Labour over the parliamentary coals. When the Conservative Party finally came to the business of government, it proceeded to prove itself more incompetent than any British government of this century. A catalogue of Conservative measures between the end of 1970 and the winter of 1974 might well be called a “Comedy of Errors”, were it not for the fact that Conservative policy was distinctly tragic for many people in this country. r It must be said, in the interests of objectivity, that the Conservative Party was not the sole \ author of the catalogue of crimes. They inherited the balance of payments deficit, were heirs to inflation, and were the recipients of trade union bitterness initially engendered by Labour hypocrisy. . -_ The fact remains, however, that in attempting to rectify the political wrongs, the Conservative government seemingly went out of its way to antagonize those whom it should have placated, than doubled; loans, more obtainable, go out at and encouraged those to whom further en16-18 percent interest, and while the banks made couragement meant deepening the gap between an “embarrassing” profit in. 1973 of more than the already very distinct classes here. twice the 1972 rate, the customer sees his savings The major political problem of the government dwindle as the pound sinks rather than floats. prior to 1970 was the “Irish problem”, or to be The Conservative response to these problems more accurate, the Northern Ireland civil war has been two-folddefend and attack, often at problem.

In January, 1972, the first major challenge to Conservative policy took place, in the form of a national miners’ strike: The government recognized, as it does today, that the miners comprise perhaps the one labour group strong enough to stick to its demands..The government gave in, although not without a needlessly drawn out battle; it is in large part, that defeat which is responsible for Heath’s ?.ron” stance ih 1974. There can be little doubt that the Tory policy, since 1972, is designed not to “curb” union power, but to break it down completely. To embark upon such a stance on a series of confrontations -is-- an indication of the Tory conception of strength. There is no doubt that, until the current miners’ action,’ Heath believed that the series of coercive and repressive measures his government carried out could indeed keep union power deflected along the lines of phase three settlements. The miners’ stance has served to remind Heath once more that there is more than one concept of power, and that united industrial strength can and will win out over financial strength. The issues of inflation and industrial relations should by themselves provide sufficient fodder for election cannons. When the revived Common Market entry issue is thrown in, a full slate seems evident. Yet, in this election, these three issues remain to a surprising extent peripheral. This is not due to anunwillingness by Labour to fight on these issues; on-the contrary, it is the Labour Party that is striving to keep the campaign on the even keel of traditional issues like nationalization of certain industries, as well as deal with the aforementioned . problems. The Conservative campaign has, however, since November been geared to a “who runs Britain” platform, positing the polarization of the government (i.e.

“democracy”) versus tl “misuse” thereof.

they are not the common variety charges of “harassment” but unprecedented (in recent years) charges of unlawful police entry, seizure of personal effects without a warrant, disruption of legal meetings and undercover infiltration of ‘several left groups. There is equally little doubt that a Tory victory in this election will-result in further attacks upon, legitimate groups, not to mention wholesale attacks upon trade unions and the working people in general. A government which holds grudges, as this one has shown it does, is dangerous. There is of course a further element’ in the current “crisis” situation which was not present in 1970, and that is the energy situation, Despite a series of back-slappingmeetings with Arab leaders, and a politically hypocritical arms-for-oil deal,. Britain’s energy future lies in coal and North Sea gas and oil. To aggravate an industry which has time and time again been sold out in, favour of the oil companies, that is the coal industry, may be politically rewarding in the short term, but in the long term it is suicidal. Miners are leaving-the pits at the rate of hundreds per month, and the only thing that will keep them and attract other miners is financial reward. Mineworkers as a group are perhaps the most class-conscious section of the British workers, and they undoubtedly have the-longest memories. Most of the men in the pits can still remember the promises of past governments, Tory and Labour promises which spread the message of “we will see you rig-ht”. Far from fulfilling such promises, successive governments since 1945 have abandoned coal interests for the lucrative b.enefits of cheap/oil. Now that oil is neither cheap, nor readily available, coal is back in fashion. Back in fashion too are the promises. The miners’ case is clear: promises mean nothing,‘ material reward everything. This message is aimed at every political party, *yet only the Labour Party is -willing to listen. Whether they can, in fact, act upon the message is not certain. It is certain that the Conservatives have no intention of acquiescing to the miners’ case. The confrontation can only be prolonged by Tory success in this election. The issues which run through this election campaign and were present in 1970, will either fade or be altered by policy. Most of the issues will be dealt with in short-term ‘policies, that is, put in abeyance for future politicians to resurrect. Some things will remain, among them the energy crisis and the “extremist versus moderate” argument. This argument, regardless of “who governs-Britain”, is both the most important and the least likely of solutions under present conditions. The Tories see the solution in terms of eroding union power; the Labour Party, in terms of a “new social contract”. Neither party can admit, without risking political life, that the solution must be put in an eit.her-or case. Either the “two ‘nations” are made one, through complete and irrevocable change, or one of the “nations” submits to the win of the other. This article is dated February 21. Obviously it suffers from the\fact that-by the time it sees print the election result will be known. It- will also suffer from the fact that it is directed to an audience who may largely believe that this current British situation is not as serious as I make it sound. Electoral predictions are best left to Gallup and Harris; therefore I make none. This however, I do predict: when Ted Heath says that this is Britain’s most important election since the turn of the century, he does not, exaggerate. His reasons for that statement are at odds with my own. The election is of paramount importance for the majority of people in this country who are neither classoriented nor “militant”. It is imh portant because these .are the people who see “firm” government in terms of social justice, and in Britain today, it is the Conservative Party ~ which offers “firmness”. It is a brand of firmness which relies upon the eradication of workers’ power, an eradication which in the past has always served as the forerunner of fascism. This election is important because, in many ways, it marks tha end and a beginning. It presents people with as clear a choice as parliamentary democracy can give; it asks them to consider the questions, to weigh all factors, to use intelligence and discretion; it then asks them to choose whether they shall reach the abyss speedily, or approach it with all due socialdemocratic caution.

Few aspects of the recent British General Election attracted as much national and foreign attention as the Liberal “revival”. In a campaign largely devoid of real excitement

and honest exposure of issues, it-may have-been logical for the media to seize upon liberal resurgence as a legitimate feature of national politics. Nevertheless, there is little doubt that massive media exposure made the Liberal strength a beneficiary of the self-fulfilling . --Aprophecy. The origins of the upsurge in Liberal support *lie in a series of by-election victories in the past two years. Despite the fact that by-elections, in Britain, have seldom been accurate guages of national political preference, the Liberal victories and near-victories presaged, according to press observers, a national swing of some size to the Liberal Party. Unfortunately, few political commentators were willing to examine the Liberal renaissance in terms of party policies. That fact is not surprising, considering that such policies were not yet formulated by the party,, and only the imminence of a general election fostered an exposition of policy. Previously the Liberal position had been almost exclusively based on the “moderate alternative” image nurtured by party leader, Jeremy Thorpe. Certainly, Thorpe and his cohorts read national moods-well, for there was indeed some measure of voter alienation from traditional Twentieth Century ConservativeLabour allegiance. When, in the latter part of’1‘973, Edward Heath chose to make “extremism” the bete noire of British politics, he played into the hands of the Liberal stance. Heath, of course, referred to Labour and Trade Unions extremists; there were, holwever, many who, although no friends of the Labour movement, also- viewed Conservative labour policies as extreme in the other direction. As the shouting match between the Tories and Labour escalated, the Liberal party maintained its position as middle of-the road, rational, polite, and above all, untainted by either of the “extremist” positions. Thorpe was the third man in all political debate, embodying reason and )I“national unity” based- on a centrist position. Again, Thorpe was appealing to an electorate which was rapidly losing traditional party fervour. In a period of “crisis” during which the Conservatives and Labour had called for action in the “national interest”, only Thorpe and the Liberals were seen as placing that interest above party allegiance. Of course, since the Liberals had no entranched party position to protect, they were- ideally situated for maintenance of an altruistic stance. With a mere six seats in the House, there was small danger of electoral loss, and a vision of substantial gain. The Liberals quickly became the quintessential opportunists. Unlike the Labour or Conservative parties, they were given two opponents to attack. Neither Tories nor Labour were willing to bring the Liberal Party into their assault for two-good reasons:. there was no party platform with substance enough to attack, and both parties were wary of giving added credence to the Liberals by stooping to denigrate them. Both leaders, Heath and Harold Wilson, were aware of the dangers of the self-fulfilling prophecy, dangers already seen in the press treatment of the Liberals. Liberal opportunism was most obvious in its party “manifesto”, published a mere two weeks before polling day. That document was a masterpiece of non-commitment. Most of its platform seemed to derive from mixing Tory and Labour positions, thereby arriving at a Liberal “centre”. This mixture enabled them to take ‘away the “threat” of Labour’s nationalization policies, while still shying away from the Tory “free enterprise” idol. On the issue of Scottish oil, for example, the Liberals were able to espouse state control, and private control Private in3dustry would exploit the reserves, while a state body would- “regulate ,profits”. Labour relations also caught the Liberal eye. The Industrial Relations Act “stood _ as a monument to attempted. Tory repression and a perpetual reminder to the Labour Party of its capitulation to union pressure.. . .” -The Liberal solution was facile: “We advocate industrial -partners hip.. ..to achieve the identification of employees’ interests with those of the firm...” “Interests” are defined furtherin the platform, safeguarding “millions of pounds through industrial harmony I and responsible wage bargaining’ ’ . The Liberals advocate a profitsharing system, whereby “equal shares” will be distributed to employees. .-They therefore envision the possibility of buying off legitimate wage grievances by tying the worker irrevocably to a disguised. productivity deal. As the manifesto states, “there is little to be

1 1

gained by wage claims in exce&& productivity”. By this criterion, workers who are already engaged in maximum production; i.e. the miners, can expect little from a Liberal government. In the time-honoured tradition of Liberalism everywhere, the present Liberal Party stands for the “Just Society”, a society whose economic foundation rests upon worker acquiescence to the sanctificationof profit and efficient management. A good deal--of Liberal attention is focused upon the “anachronistic” trade unions; the confrontation made inevitable by “management versus unions mentality” must be eradicated in the “national interest”. Yet, that “national interest” is as vaguely defined, by Liberals as by Tories. The message that unions are not in the “national interest” is, however, quite clear. In the manifesto preface, /Thorpe does pay homage to his Liberal heritage: “Our present society is grossly unfair in its distribution of privileges and material rewards between capital and labour.. .the restructuring of our society is in sight”. It is understandable that many observers here feel that they have heard it all before from Labour, from Tories, and now from the Liberals. The message is Victorian; the message is the party. _ -The election resultshave both supported and repudiated the Liberal “surge”. The party gained 8 seats, giving it 14 in the new House, and the “balance of power”. Those 14 seats are not a reflection of the popular vote, which presented Liberals with 7 million supporters as opposed ,to ‘11.5 million for each of Tories and Labour. This situation has, and rightly so, sparked anew the flame of ,debate over proportional representation. Neither- Tories nor Labour are likely to be sympathetic to the Liberals, for obviaus reasons. The electoral change necessary to include proportional representation is huge; it is also not in Tory or Labour interests. Thus any Liberal “resurgence” is shattered by a “catch-. 22”. They cannot in the near future form a government unless they get electoral change; the only party likely to initiate such changes are the Liberals. The only hope for Liberals, at present, is the “balance” position which they now hold. It is a weak position, if only because they must emerge at the next General Election as political scapegoats. Politically they are closer to Labour, they may well lose the large Conservative swing vote. Similarly, if they support the Tories and Labour swing voter will defect. Their alternatives are limited by the situation-They have tried the coalition road, and have seen it fail They may now prefer to be spectators, a role which will do them great harm in any future election. In some sense, their “revival” is also the key to a rapid demise. That demise may be averted if ‘they manage to maintain their “nation above party” position, but ‘there are many in the party ranks who will soon tire of such a stance, faced as they are with a choice of non-partisanship-or an opportunity to use the party position to force some aspects of Liberal gospel onto national policy. Finally, the Liberal Party has yet to reckon with the possibility that Labour could cut the feet from under the “resurgence”. A Labour minority gover,lment will not be able to push its “controversial” policies through; it will therefore settle for popular policies which have immediate impact, such -as raising old age pensions, halting rent increases, and returning to the fiveday work week. Such measures will steal the “moderate” thunder from the Liberals, and will, in fact, deprive them of a substantial part of their platform. Settlement with the unions will alienate the Tory voter, but the Liberals; too, are committed to such settlement of current disputes. Liberal cries of an end to the two-party stranglehold are, to say the least, premature. They are the beneficiaries to a great extent of a particular economic situation, and have grown largely by reacting rather than initiating. Again, like Liberalism everywhere, they are suffocating under the weight of traditional liberal responses to political problems. By relying upon what they like to call the “moderation and rationality” of the British electorate, they are attempting to resurrect that which had a nebulous life, if indeed it breathed at all. In an attempt-to reconcile capital and labour, in attempting to awaken “social justice” and in calling for’co-operation, the Liberals have missed the political point so long adopted by Labour and the Tories; Britain is a nation of extremes, and the gaps are-growing. The bridge of Liberalism is founded upon positions proven inoperable and unsound half a century ago. Political inexperience, lack of radical alternative programs, and an insistence upon following dead tradition portend a brief political resurrection. Liberals had best keep their Edwardian crypt open. ’

-. Music& notes

The local deities assembled last weekend and voted in an ice storm to plague Alfred Kunz and his music m&ers in their efforts to bring us the spring concerto program. This’ cost us the entire double-reed section of the orchestra, less than mortal blow to Mozart’s 21st Concerto, and had effects on the other two works on the program, the Beethoven C Minor Concerto and Mozart’s Exultate Jubilate, Despite this, the concert may he pronounced a success, and was witnesssed by about’ three hundred music lovers. Margaret Euigsen, turnedin a splendid performance of the Exultate, a demanding work whbse difficulties seemed only to inspire the performer. Connoisseurs will savor the trill near the end of the adagio movement, and the many runs tossed-off with authority as well as. elan. She has a sweet and pure voice rather than the lavish operatic type,‘ but, given vocal apintelligent use, Elligsen’s paratus makes for Mozart. -This is the most outstanding performance yet of the many excellent ones givexby this soprano. Andrew Tao must be the envy of every amateur musician arqand; he seems entirely unperturbable, and gave the impression that even with no orchestra at all, he would still have done his solo part as crisply and precisely as always. Technically, he was impressive. The 2 1st concerto is a display piece -in its outer movements, requiring fleet fingers and dexterity; and Tao made it, clear that such challenges bother him not at all. On the interpretive side, however, Tao’s approach to Mozarrt is unsatisfying. Tao dispenses with pedals, for instance, on th_e ground that Mozart’s pianos ,didn’t have any. They contribute greatly to the expression of those htiuntingly beautiful slow- movements-this concerto is 9 perfect case in point. Greater shading of dynamics along with longercontoured phrasing _would have been used. Tao-‘s pursuit of purity ends up, in puritanism, whi5h is not Mozart’s cup of tea. It is- interesting to have so austere a--reading now and again, and it &akes one wonder if this technically gifted pianist’s interpretive outlook on Mozart will alter any in future. . Having produced an impressive account of the Beethoven work six weeks. previously with the K-W Junior Symphony, the question about Joanne Elligsen’s reappearance was whether the ldng . interval between performances would have dulled the fine edges before, with the problems especially y-hat resented by a sadly incomplete orchestra behind her. Fortunately, only a little was lost, and this audience had a pretty close likeness to her earlier triumph. There was eloquence in her slow movement, and her general conception of the work ‘shows a solid grasp of Beethovian sfyle and structure. In brief, very satisfying. ti program with -Joanne doing one Mozart concerto and Andrew doing another might be worth con- sidering for the future. The Little Symph‘bny has a hard time in life. We don’t, of course, have any inducement at all for ta_lented orchestra _ musicians to come to this University. Much of the orchestra ata this concert was hired help, and that means not much rehearsal. An auto-accident on the 401’ deprived ‘us of two oboes and two bassoons on top of this, and we must end up being astonished that orchestral support was anywhere near accepttible. It really wasn’t _a11that, bad, considering. None of the errors in ensemble or defecks

in intonation were as serious as the absence of the double-reeds, instruments for which Mozart in particular had an unsurpassed ‘gift. Throughout, Alfred Kunz’s merits as a conductor were. in evidence. Tempos were very well judged, and he kept things in as good balance as could be hoped undel: the circutistances. All things takentogether, the concert was a tribute to t;he ability of those concerned to rise to a difficult occasion, and‘ the audience’s warm tributes to their efforts. were well earned. . * * * * The K-k Symphony Orchestra, the Bach Choir, W LU ‘s Collegium Musicum, --and several soloists and extras teamed up under Raffi Armenian’s leadership to bring us the St. Matthew Passion of Bach last Sunday, although we had to brihg ourselvest’o Galt t6 hear it. The choirs were divided into four groups, and the orchestra into each with its own two orchestras, harpsichord and Armenian manning another harpsichord himself to accompany the’recitatives. But withal it was a much smaller-scale performance than this woik .tends to get, at placeslike Massey Hall, for instance; in consequence the modest size of the Central Presbyterian Church suited this performance’ pretty well, even if its acoustics aren’t inspiring. For v.arious rea/sons, the forces were obviously underrehparsed on this occasion. The occasion can’t be accounted an unqualified success; but a success, on the whole, it nevertheless was. Very good singing from the choruses was the main contributing element, but there were some other noteworthy things, and the orchestra was reliable if not brilliant. The many demanding arias and r&itatives for solo voices in this h;ge work carry a major share of the burden of any performance. On this occasion, the soloists were not uniformly SUCcessful. Neither the ladies, Lynda Neufeld and Ruth Ann Archibald, were in best form. Victor Martens was better than usual, with outstanding_ diction overcoming a rather ailing tenor. Alvin Reimer, WLU’s bass, was satisfactory as always, the other tenor, Roelof Oostwoud, from the Canadian Opera, was vocally excellent. An indication of the unevenness of the soloists is that some of the long arias seemed too long; this doesn’t happen with a well prepared performance. Seveial other contributors need mention for bringing some points of real distinction to this performafice. One was a beautiful elderly lady who commanded the viola de gamba (which is ancestok of the cello, more or less, and has a warm; somewhat nasal tpne ideal for certaih baroque supportmg passages). This instrument provides wonderful accompaniment in two of the greatest arias in the work, and Peggy Samson, leader of York’s ancient music group, really turned people on. Ano-ther worthy was Stewart Knussen, the double bass player who is ex-London Symphony Orchestra: His depiction of the rending of the temple veil upon Christ’s crucifixion was really impressive. Another stellar bit performance came from Architecture’s Rheinhold Schuster, who had the small role of Pontius Pilate. Hi$ commanding bass voice overwhelmed the part. Credit should go to the first orchestra’s oboe English Horn players who managed the sublime, crooning obligatto parts which do so much for some of the great arigs from this work. It’s not too m&h to say that these people provided much of the distinction in this performance which otherwise wou!d have been ranked-very good but not memorable. Conductor Armenian, of course, is unfailingly reliable in his general handling of thk score, though I

felt both that things weren’t going quite thti way he wanted, and that his sympathies don’t seem wholly w-i& this piece (perhaps the former accounted for the If this was -an imperfect latter). realization ’ of his wishes, then a performance which really does the job he wants will be something to look forward to. -jan

And then there was “Intergalactic Laxative”, whose. title speaks for itself. For the “Dallas Rag”, Don did some fancy finger-picking, and a fine guitar solo hmerged in the best Nashville Skyline tradition. Both of the brothers are better than average guitarists, and their interplay on numbe& like “San Francisco Bay Blues” was a pleasure to behold. Their abilities as songwriters was also illustrated on a coup_le of original numbers, in particular Dennis’ “Brung Down Talkin’ Blues”, a satiric account of a trip to New York City. This, song, and a rousing “Ring around the Rosie Rag”, brought the performance to a finish.. The, Abiett brothers provided some good music for this last s&t of theirs on university premises, and is m,usic that will be missed among those who have heard and enjoyed -_it over the past few years. -pad

school in the morning and a dance depicting the meeting of the demure nightingale with the flambouyant peacock. Extravagant production numbers were also to be had. One seemed to be little more than a baton 1 twirling exhibition, another a tambourine thumping review of gypsy. folk tunes and the thud a slick multi-media extravaganza, performed to the !now’ sound of ‘Pink Floyd’. Perhaps the least inspired choreography in the programme but one which could have been the most original was the effort at interpreting the basic’ or primitive elements: The routine entitled ‘Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Space’, was, if anything, ten years out of date. Flailing arms and bodies strained to the heavens is passe. One might presume to suggest a study of the work being done by some of the still primarily’ black repertory companies in the United States. * Certainly the evening had its moments. ‘Open Spaces’ a dance simply produced not only nicely correlated dance and music but allowed the performers to demonstrate the control, and discipline of body which they obviously had. Unfortunately there were few other opportunities for the dancers to demonstrate these skills. One could also enjoy Bernd Juche Cossack-kicking his way across the stage and the handsomely done costumes and lighting in the Pink Floyd review. However, for those who came to see a performance of good dance these tiny tidbits were just not enough. Hopefully, of Waterloo The University Repertory next year more time will be spent on demonstrating the various techniques developing the dance and less on the -weekend.

Foliage can often enhance the stark beauty of a. bloom but never is .it acceptable as its substitute. Those attending the ’ concert, presented by the University of Waterloo Dance Repertory Company last Saturday and Sunday night were given just that-an abundance of foliage to buffer a less than mediocre dance. Costumes, stage props, film clips, slick lighting, music Y gimmicks allcan and should be used; but only to intensify what the dance itself is attempting to convey. One found, however, that any effect created by the various routines was made by these gimmicks and not by the dance which, if one could find it, was generally uninspired and appeared more like badly strung together exercises. The programme, primarily choreographed by students, was diverse in order to exhibit the different dance forms. Included were routines interpreting poetry, the day to day occurence of people scurrying to work and ‘.

Easv~’, on the extras J

Tl rerefore I or any other person has no it on -the terms a rig ;ht to /judge theatre school is judged. Pr’ ofessional Prof. Peter O’Shaughnessy , <Maurice El fans, Gordon McDougall, Prof. Hc :dges and Paul Roland have done an ex cellent job in involving students in \\._ Illi sjor productions this year. Tro$llus and Cressida used .apoximately twenty-nine students inrding cast and crew. Waiting for Godot used eight. What the Butler Saw used around tw renty-nine. I have no estimate for Poor Bitos. The , cr( JW was largely students. Madelline’s Place was entirely St1 udents. Caucasian Chalk Circle which is co ming up this. month is using up to as llli any as forty to fifty including cast and ’ cr( 3W. There are a large number of noon hour oductions going on and all include \ udents.

Recently I experienced working for the on-campus, Pizza Palace outlet. I would like to relate a few of my findings to fellow students. The pizza dough is frequently rolled out by Dave, the store manager, who has a distasteful habit of directly sneezing on about 45 percent of the pizzas. Pizza dough comes in three pre-manufactured sizes according to which size pizza one orders. Should. the size dough, as shop run out of “large” frequently happens on busy Friday and Saturday evenings, the skilled chef invariably manages to molest a smaller size dough to meet the standards of a larger order. A few hints when ordering your snack could possibly ensure a higher quality product; l Never order “doubles” of any one item on the pizza. When the store runs short of these items you may not be receiving these extras but paying for them none the less.. Dave’s most popular saying is,. “Easy on the extras or we may run out fellas”. l Pick the- pizza up yourself! Surely something is wrong when a pizza which is made in 6 minutes ends up being delivered in no. less than 45 minutes. Believe me, a lot can happen to a pizza at the Palace of Pizza while it is waiting around to be delivered. , l If uncertain, order elsewhere. I have often found that a pizza may travel across town faster than it does from the campus outlet to the/student villagers. This store’s monopoly should not influence your decision as to whom you purchase your product from. It certainly isn’t offering University of Waterloo students a convenience which other competitive outlets in K-W P&a couldn’t provide, , Leo Burosch Man-Environment, Year 2

.

Maybe alumni should offer money ’ rather than opinions on university politics. However, recent developments

in the History Department of the University of Waterloo have prompted me to publicize., a conviction which, although dangerous to expound as an undergrad there, now seems imperative (distance expelling a modicum of risk). Because of budget cuts, however’ necessary, the plan is to cut three junior members of the department (all into various facets of Canadian history) when their contracts cease next year, The wisdom of such an action escapes me. One wonders if this is not an ideal time to take stock and clean house in a more judicious 1fashion. Before jeopardizing the vitality and growth of any department, the older, mustier institutions should be reassessed. Tenure, s for one, becomes often an excuse for vegetation or an incentive for lapsing into mediocrity and irrelevance. Unreservedly favouring the tenured over younger, newer members in this instance, results in not only depleting the resources of the department and reducing significant Canadian content courses but also deprives all students of relevant, expanding instructors. Susan M. Darling Carleton University [past president, History Society University of Waterloo]

About all this streaking bullshit. It’s nothing new in this area, regardless of the novelty for some of the local buff freaks. Does anybody remember the- six-toed nude who stalked the hallways and mallways of Waterloo Square two years ago? Or the Phantom Flasher who roamed Victoria Park in Kitchener, _I. without a trench coat? And even Andy Telegdi, revered federation president, can claim to be in the pre-history of streakers (although he wore most of his clothes at the time). Telegd%-once ran from Hammarskjold House to the arts library and back in his bare feet during Februaryto win a bet. So, you see, it isn’t so new after all. Square ball in a round hoop 8’ - Alumnus

“Symposium\ fricari P Josef Ben Jochannan, a NYC university black historian, asserted the need for blacks to research their history in order to gain a true insight of their heritage, at last Saturday’s African symposium. He emphasizedthe urgency of dedicated research into the magnitude of African culture by blacks as whites have always tended to perpetuate the myth that Africa has never made any relevant . history. Jochannan refutes this white “thesis” as being a deliberate attempt to “shackle the minds of blacks” so they themselves will come to believe their own backwardness. History is primarily the list of of a culture and it is achievements natural for the culture in question, especially if it is hegemonic, to undermine the historical value of other cultures. Such is the case with black history and the treatment it has received from white scholars. The . indoctrination process starts when the black child goes to school and learns from his teachers the irrelevance of his - people’s history. Jochannan exemplified this process well by drawing from personal experience: “the teacher asked us all in class to- say something our cultural background about (Jochannan went to a Puerto Rican high school when his parents left native Ethiopa) and when I got up, he said ‘what are you going to talk about?“‘. After his childhood experience, Jochannan “got the urge” to study his African background and 54 years later he still has not achieved his initial goal. Jochannan, being bright of mind, managed to -work himself up to Cambridgeuniversity standards bn a scholarship. There he encountered racism in its most obscure form, as the black students are encouraged to renounce their heritage and become like whites. Obviously this renouncement of heritage is not forced upon ina heavy handed manner but, to the contrary, very smoothly, such as in mannerisms of speech: “I (at Cambridge) was told not to ‘communicate my emotions while speaking but rather to ex.press myself in the polished European manner”. Jochannan openly -admits that he “had to put up with white history so he could have the opportunity to research black, history”. Black students are therefore brainwashed into being ashamed of the$r own culture. One example is the acceptance of the term “qegro”’ as descriptive of black people, by blacks themselves when in-reality “negro” is a 16th century word with the same negative connotation as “nigger” today. ,Jocahnnan- lays many attacks on the European or -Western interpretation df world history and the Christian religionan integral part of Western history. He?old the audience of the shortof established religion’s comings assertion about the virginity of Mary, mother of Jesus. It seems there was a conference of 219 bishops at Niceaea in 322 AD, and the major concern-of their meeting was to decide whether or not Mary was really a virgin. They decided that she was and also decided that the book of Mary, which until then had been considered to be a book of the bible; was not divinely inspired. It is appropriate to note that the book of Mary which was thereafter suppressed, talks of ‘James

the lesser’, who was born to Mary when she was 13. Jochannan concluded that there was no way she could still have been, physically, a virgin. Jochannan also makes factual attacks on historical truth as seen in the eyes of Western wisdom. A case in point, is the recent discovery (1969) of a 43,000 year old iron mine in Swaziland. A fact countering the tradition that the Persians were the ones who brought iron to Africa. Finally to elaborate on the cultural -genocide of - black people, Jocannan relates on how he “went to a black were church and the congregation singing ‘. . . make me whiter than snow”‘. -randy

hannigan

“As long as the black people. have problems these conferences will continue . ’ ’ This was the rationale given in the opening remarks of the second annual symposium of African People, for sponsoring the conference. “It is not action that we seek at these conferences, -but hopefully action will follow.” The purpose of the conference according to the ope‘ning remarks was to stimulate and formulate ideas, ‘and to give the participants an opportunity to measure their ideas against others. The first-speaker of the conference was ,Dr. Rawle Farley, a black professor of economics at the. State University of New York. Farley opened his remarks by stating that the one compulsive question that all blacks must see for themselves is the question of how does one survive and how does one triumph. Farley’s answer to this question -was that _ without economic and technological power, blacks cannot be beautiful. ‘Beautiful thoughts can only be achieved by the blacks after they have gained economic and technological independance. Farley used most of his time to emphasize the poor economic situation of the black countries. He stressed that the blacks were the poorest of the poor and were in moreof an emergency situation than any other ethnic group. As an indicator of just where the -black countries stood economically, Farley compared the gross national product per capita of the African countries to that of the United States. The average GNP per capita, of the African countries is two hundred dollars, whereas the per capita GNP of the United States is- over five thousand dollars. In eight African countries the per capita GNP is one hundred dollars or less and only three countries, including South Africa and Libya, where the per capita GNP reaches 2700:00, are above the United Nations poverty line. Added ~to this poor economic state is the fact that the African countries have the highest current population growth, except for Latin America. If current trends continue, by the year 2000,-theAfrican countries will have 500 -million more people than North America. Added to this is the fact of a very high dependency rate, that is, people over’ sixty four years and under fifteen years old. Fifty per cent of the population is under the age of fifteen. Illiteracy is high, in countries such as Angola and Ethiopia, the illiteracy rate reaches as high as ninety-five per cent. The overall rate of illiteracy is about eighty per a’cent, for all of Africa. This i situation must be overcome, according to Farley and the solution to that is to

put every available time into educating the people. ~Although Farley - emphasized the fact that the black people must gain economic control of their resources and achieve technological power, he failed or completely neglected to analyse why blacks were in the position that they are in or how to overcome their current situation. Farley also used the white American capitalist system as a basis for judging the African countries. -Throughout his talk he seemed to be assuming that the goals of the black people should be those goals which white America holds so dearly. But it was unconvincing that a middle class black professor could be speaking for his “brothers and sisters” in black Africa, many of whom have never even heard-of a university. Even though as Farley stated, “only a black man can tell his story” it seems equally true that only a poor black man can tell his story.

Duringthe question period, wrhen Farley was asked whether or not he was in fact supporting a black capitalist ideology, Farley asked whether anyone had heard him use the word capitalist. Supposedly, since Farley hadn’t used the word capitalist, ,one was to assume that he wasn’t a capitalist. However, Farley constantly used words such as entrepreneurship, diversification of industry, advertising power and technological advances, as steps to achieving economic power. Farley , had throughout his talk defined capitalism perfectly, without using the word capitalism. Farley went so far as to say that the blacks must not get-caught in the ideologies of any of the “isms” but instead must look at his own situation and do what is-best for him. It was evident, however, from the questions asked, that not all the audience agreed with Farley . -john morris \

One of the questions raised during the recent symposium of African Peoples was whether or not all blacks are indeed “brothers & sisters”. For instance, can a‘ middle class university professor truly speak for his “brothers and sisters” in the African tribes? Is it not possible that the ’ middle class blacks have beclome assimilated into white society to the point that they begin to judge their “brothers and sisters” in Africa using white America’s standards. Is it the role of an American black professor, purporting to speak for black people of the world, since they are all his “brothers and sisters”, to try and introduce technology to the tribes of Africa in order to bring the per Gapita gross national product in line with those of the western world? Is economic power the most important struggle for the black ii countries? -.. The main reason for the highest per capita gross national product belonging to America is the fact that America has the- most highly develop&l capitalist economic system in the world. And a very important and intrinsic part of that American capitalism is the exploitation of the resources and people of the African countries. Countries like Angola and Mozambique which have very low per capita gross national products, and a very high rate of illiteracy, are major sources of coffee and mineral for the’ American countries. The American companies are clearly not doing anything to alleviate the problems of the native black population. \ It .would be redundant to state that inherent in- the capitalist system is the exploitation of a large labouring class, with the concentration of capital in the hands of a very few. Therefore anyone \

who proposes that the black countries better their economic status by means of‘ capitalism must keep in mind that there still will be required a large labouring class. This means, in turn, that there will be a few blacks better off, but the majority of blacks still would form the labouring Class, and as such would still be exploited. ’ The black people look on the white world with disdain, but perhaps there is something to be learned in the mistakes of the white;‘capitalist system. Is a black capitalist any different from a white capitalist? Do the blacks feel that they must prove that they kan be equal to the white man’s capitalism? ’ Another factor that must be looked at is the role of culture ‘in a capitalist system. Culture in this country certainly runs a poor second or third to accumulating capital, for the average person. One of the identifying marks of the black movement, however, was the link of the American black to his ancestors in Africa. This includes a strong identity to the- culture of the home country. This culture then would be buried !,by an onslaught of technology if capitalism were chosen as a means of improving the black’s economic situation. Thus the black person is faced with a choice between losing his culture and being assimilated into a technological state or forming a society based on traditional African culture. The blacks must realize also that there is something to gain by working in cooperation with the non-blacks who are involved in forming alternative societies. Perhaps it is true that only a black man can tell, his story, but then only the oppressed, regardless of colour, can tell their story. -randy

The following article is by Neil Dunn&g; and thk photographers are Randy Hannigan -and Martin Ship. The city of Waterloo ‘owns a zoo, built ‘as a centennial project by the Lion’s Club on land given by the&y in Waterloo Park. It is now run by the city parks board. This zoo was built as a wildlife display, to give city-dwellers a chance to see wild animals that they might not see normally. Many people take advantage of the zoo, especially on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. It would be very hard to argue that the intentions of the visitors and founders of the zoo -are not highly honourable-at the very least they are innocent. There are many which must be’ asked questions however., before the caging of animals can be justified. The biological questions that lie. behind zoos and zoological gardens are far from being completely answerable now’. It is too simple to say that animals have complete freedom in the wild to travel where they pleasewhen one is arguing against t caging animals. It is t also- too simple to say that animals are happy as long as they are fed, if one is arguing for having zoos. Just as, in human society, _ the daily lives of‘ creatures lower on the evolutionary scale than man are governed by thousands of factors which overlap everywhere and can -not be separated from each ,other.

Accoiding to H. Hediger (Director of the Zurich Zoological Gardens) it isn’t just the amount of space at the animal’s disposal, but the quality of life that exists for the animal in the cage’ that must be considered. To improve quality you don’t just put a concrete pond in the middle of an animal% cage. You, have to look at physical factors such as diversity and quality of food and the creature’s dependence on external and internal stimuli. There are related psychological problems such as the degree to which fear of man is learned through experience and carried by instinct, the territorial I of one demands of animals and natural ‘5 and hope to catch a ‘glimpse conflicts which arise between inwhile out in the woods?_dividuals and species.

than their own very small cage that has a large concrete pond in the middle of it. There are no large trees to climb something Hediger considers and essential for young black bears. Again one could raise the question as t-o the validity of keeping an animal in a cage which offers it no chance to behave naturally. What are people gaining from seeing it? There is, however, a -definite need for zoological gardens in the world. This is- because man has increased so prolifically that there is little room left for the other inhabitants of , Earth. Therefore animals must be studied at range under conditions that are reasonable for <them -and doing this perhaps people can find ways to ensure the ’ continued existence of wildlife until the people get themselves under control and back into harmony with nature. There is- an.ther side of the Waterloo ‘ Wildlife Display which can be viewed from a differeQt point of view. This is the keeping of farm animals at the park. At present there are, ducks+- geese and chickens which have the freedom to wonder at &ill and can also be hand fed by children. Large numbers of wild ducks come to the park as well, to feed with the domestic fowl. According to one representative of the parks board there aren’t more farm animals such as goats and’ cows because “any resident of K-W can drive out to the and’ see country farm animals anytime” while rarely would one see a wild elk or cougar. “Mere curiosity on the part of visitors does not in itself justify the interference by man in the animal’s life, by turning it into a captive in a cage or enclosure-; but it, rs possible to defend the transfer of single animals from the abundant stocks of wild animals to captivity under the best possible condition in order to- help man in his understanding of nature.” - F. Schmidt.
