Waterloo but only the undergraduates.The deletion of the graduate students reflects an application made by the 198O-t81 Federation Council to amend its charter of incorporation. The change ends many years of discussion between grads and undergrads and allows the Federation to officially recognize the separately incorporated Graduate Club as the sole representative of the graduate students. However, grad students will still be able to, buy social memberships in the Federation to- enable them to use Federation services and attend Federation pubs and concerts.

What happeried to the fee hike strike? Those of you who left us last spring probably remember that the. Federation of Stud’ents was supposed 1to have been making p,lafis this summer for a September fee hike strike. But that is all over now. ‘How did it happen? Perhaps a- little background first would help clarify the iss-ues. , On December 31, 1979, the Minister of Education, Colleges and Universities, Bette Stephenson,announted that university tuition would rise 7.5% the fol!owing year (this September) and that universities <could raise their fees an additional 10% if they wished. The, UW Board of Governors approved raising UW’s fees by 7.5%, but no further, on February 5. In response to this increase, the Federation of circulated a Students petition and collected 4,oo"o signatures from studebts opposed to the fee increase. When Dr. - Stephenson rejected the petition, the Federation passed a iesolution, in the Federation Council meeting of March 17, calling for a fee hike strike. A Federation I Council

meeting was scheduled for June 22’ to discuss .preparations for the fee hike strike. But, rather than discussing preparations, the Council re-, ceived a sur@!ise. Peter-Hoy, Co-chairperson of the -Board of Education and External R.elatipns, introduced a resolution calling f8r the cancellation of the fee hike strike. Since Council had not reached quorum forty-five minutes after the meeting had started, ‘the meeting was cancelled and the Federation Board pf Directors met and passed the resolution by a 3 to 1 vote. The Federation ‘stated that the fee hike strike was distorting their anti-cutbacks campaign (giving it a negative orientation). UW was the only member of OFS intending to hold a fee hike strike. (Ottawa, a non-OFS affiliated university still has plans for suc’h a strike.) The Federation claimed that the fee hike strike was turning into a confrontation, which was not the Federation’s intention. \ Yet, the issue didn’t die there. The Committee to Support the Fee Hike Strike, a group formed when the strike was called, criticized the methods by

which the. Federatidn cancelled the fee hike strike. They stated that they felt such an important issue should have been put to a general meeting for all students to decide upon, that the problems facingthe strike were surmountable and that the fee hike _ strike was .a practical action. Freeman disagreed, stating that the decision was a responsible one, and that it had been made in a democratic fashion. He also said that the decision had had to be made quickly and that a general meeting would have been too time consuming. Freeman’s explanation notwithstanding, the ComMembers frp’m t.he Committee mittee organized a petition of Students Offices. under Federation by-law 21 to call a general meeting and began collecting signa,the Federation offices tures. beginning on July 16, There was immediate demanding that Freeman controversy over how call a general meeting on many signatures were the subject of the fee hike. needed.

Housing shortage a&k September may well prove to be a disltressing month for many UW and WLU students left sfranded in the wake of an acute I housing shortage. According to UW’s housing director, Al Woodcock, the summer which began with an increase of over 100 student beds was short ‘by the same amount *at mid season. When asked why the situation is worse this year than in the past, Woodcock -cited what he thinks are three reasons: r 1) A general decline in the building of townhouses and apa’rtments is presently affecting KitchenerL Waterloo. As families gradually populate the traditional student housing areas, the lag is not being picked tip by new devklopments. 2) Approximately 200 students glutted the hous-ing market in mid summer when it was announced by developers that the 68 unit townhouse complex they were to move into on Philrip St. would not -be finished by September. ‘3) Several- hundred more applications for student villagerooms were received this year than in years past. This means that the waiting list has been significantly longer than usual, and frustrated village hopefuls began hbnting for housing alter-

: natives late in the season. Swamped by students -looking for housing at a time of year when the resource& are all but exhausted, the housing office found it necessary to appeal to the public for more student rooms. Radio, televisi.on and news-; paper advertisements carthat ried the message students were in desparate of housing. The need attempt, was a success and . yielded over 200 additional student beds. Nonetheless, Woodcock expects that more than a few students will be looking for housing in Sgtember. In response to the question, “What should students do if they find themselves without housing by the fall?” Woodcock suggests that students will just have to persever! and frequent the housing office for new vacancies. (The office is now located in Village 1 next to the base of the large white village smoke stack.) Woodcock also suggests that those in need of housing should come to the Housing Office at 1:30 pm on September 9. At thi$ time a n’ew lottery will bb held for any available village rooms. September vacancies in this residence usually range from 25 to 65 beds, but students are only eligib_le ‘for the draw ifthey come in person on September 9. In anticipation -of thi!

housing shortage continuing in’to September, some groups on campus have begun to take action. The Federation of Students has recently .made a public appeal for more housing in the K-W Record. Informal discussQns have also been held on the issue by Federation President Freeman and other Federation members. Though a policy had not been formulated by mid summer, dis-m cussions concerning the way in which homeless students will be helped are to resume if housing is still problem by early a September. The International Students Office began in mid August to arrange temporary housing in the event that foreign students should arrive in Canada’ with no prior housing arrangements. Through their office in Needles Hall, foreign students in this situatioii will be temporarily housed by both faculty members and students who have volunteered an extra bed or couch until more suitable. lodgings can be found.. Other groups qn campus are aware of the situation but feel that measures such as those taken by ‘the International Students Office could only be followed if the problem has sh&n. by September to be a major oile.

Imprint reserves the right ti screen, edit, and refuse advertising. _

M.ost campus newspapers have a history that s.tretches back a number of decades, as well as a collection of stories and myths, and behaviours (some, embroidered, some factual) that add up to sorriething we ,usually label as tradition. If the past editors of the U. of Guelph Ontarion, for example, were to meet together they would fill a good-, sized room, and to have such a gathering of Queen’s Journal editors, a number of bodies would have t6 be exhumed. The editors of -this papershould get together ‘for a rubber of bridge between them. Imprint was born less than three years ago out of mass discontent and frustration with the then-official student newspapkr, the Chevron. On November 30, a dW student referendum drew the largest voter turn-out in Canada in ten year&. These students voted nearly 5-1 to disenfranchise the paper.The following March, an overwhelming 77 per cent of those votirig in a second student referendum endorsed Imprint as their

newspaper. Imprint’s first editor, Nick Redding, writing at the time of these events, maintained that “UW students need and deserve a g’ood student newspaper which is open to all-views, which reflects student life and which deals seriously and objectively with major issues facing students. They need a paper which welcomes humour in and provides an enjoyable learning its content: experience for those who wish to contribute.” This is in all likelihood the closest thing we have to a tradition at this paper, and ohe which we are doing everything within. our power to preserve. While no paper can claim to be perfectly objective, the unbiased reporting of t’he facts will continue ‘to be Imprint’s’ first priority. While this may limit sensational or col.ourful ‘reporting’, we feel that deliberate bias should be reserved for comment, editorials, letters, reviews, and the solicited replies to our campus question. In fact, we welcome opinions: our second function on this’campus is to provide UW students with a forum.,

The more students contribute to the paper the more representative it becomes: indeed, the more it becomes a student newspaper in the truest sense of the word. Over the last years, Imprint has been steadily growing. We’ve gained staff, community acceptance, experience, and momentum. Much of our success has been due to our willingness to improve and expand. There’s lots of room, however, for students who want to help us accomplish these goals. We need people who are willing to learn, to share their skills, to have fun. We need people who can report events;take photos, review pubs, research feature’s, do production, and contribute to debate. We need people who can contribute opinions and ideas. We need people in Campus Centre Room 140, September 4 at 2 o’clock. See you there. Marg Sanderson

Exam still. mandatory

The traditional forms of initiation, in which frosh were sometimes forced to participate in years gone by, is almost dead at UW. However, there are still some rites of passage required of first year students. One is provided by the university itself and is called the English LanProficiency Prowage gramme (ELP), and is required ‘of students in Arts, HKLS, Mathematics, and Environmental Studies. ’ The ELP, established. at UW in 1976, is designed to remedy a depressing tendency in high school graduates to have serious difficulties when communicatingin written English. It consists of a two-part examination designed to indicate the. student’s competence in reading and writing, followed by an intensive, individually tutored remedial programme for students who do not pass the examination. On September 2, the fall term’s first year students sit for two hours to write the exam. For the first part,, which takes fifty minutes to complete, they will write a 300-500 word expository essay. “We have met the enemy, and he is us,” is one sentence used last year asthe . topic about which students were expected to write.

Those with difficulties take an English department course specializing in writing. Dr Robert Volden, Dean of Science, also believes that the ELP is not the best solution of assessing the abilities of students not in the co-op programme. He would like to see the improvement of writing skills remain a departmental matter, he stated. “I want the Chairman (of each individual departto be able to ment) demonstrate that the programme requirements mean that students won’t pass unless they can read and write and communicate effectivelv.”

Some take the clinic voluntarily. He adds that most students seem happy with things the way they are. For the first time this fall, the Mathematics faculty is requiring its students to .pass the ELP exam. “There’s a need for communication skills in all areas regardless of faculty,” says Mathematics Dean’ Alan George. He adds that the faculty will also continue to give awards for good co-op work reports as. a means of encouraging students to improve their writing abilities. Among the faculties which have been involved in the programme for a longer timeArts, HKLS, ES-there is general agreement that the

students find the programme useful. Some say it will take time’ to see concrete results though. “We’ll know only three or four years down the ~road,” says Steven McCall of Kinesiology, “But I’m sure it will show benefits.” McCall hopes, as do other faculty heads, that the programme will become obsolete as high schools produce graduates with better c’ommunication skills. Director Ledbetter says that the programme for students having difficulty in writing at UW ‘is almost unique in Canada. Says Ledbetter, “Its the result of seriously confronting the problem six or so years ago. The university made a rather crucial decision that, if these people(who have writing a problems) are admitted, you have an obligation to see that they are educated.”

CCB denies room to group On Friday, July 25, the Campus Centre Board met to hear from Maggie Thompson, Brigid Rowe, and Jules Grajower, representatives from the Committee‘ to Support the Fee Hike Strike. Their complaint stemmed from a Campus Centre Board decision to ban Mary Gillis, Johnson Cheung, and the Committee from booking rooms in the CC for a period of six months. Gillis and Cheung, according to the CCB had been soliciting on Wednesday, July 15 in the CC despite repeated verbal warnings and a written warning sent on the previous Tuesday to stop doing so. According to Joyce Pickard, Vice Chairperson of the Board, those soliciting, and the organization for which they were carrying out this activity, cannot book rooms. Rowe stated that Committee members were distributing information, not soliciting. She said that they were told that they could not distribute leaflets by hand, or leave them on tables. Rowe stated that students who want to “stir things up” are being prevented from doing so, and that, since the CC is a student place, students should have the right to use it. She called the ban on bookings “undemocratic”. Thompson said that “students are concerned about the things that go on” and that if they were approached by

somebody that they do not wish to -talk to they could always. “Pm not say interested”. All three insisted that other means of distributing were information which more acceptable to the CCB, such as information tables or forums, were ineffectual. Carol Hincks, Operations Coordinator for the ‘CC, pointed out that if students were allowed to distribute leaflets, there would have to be some way. of seeing that they conformed to CCB standards. Thompson said she thought an approval system was a possible alternative. Pickard, how-’ ever, maintained that such a thing wouldinvolve the Board in making value judgement s, something it does not want. Pickard -went on to say that, despite the fact that students are its major users, the CC is a building for students, staff, and faculty, and that all must be considered when decisions are made. She claimed to have spoken to many of the Committee members on the alternatives available to them. Jim Frost, ,a member of the CCB and a turnkey, -felt that. the individual has a choice whether or not to obtain material from an information table-a choice which is not present if a person is solicited. Referring specifically to the information table which the Committee operated at the

beginning of the summer, he said that if people did not show interest in it, it perhaps was not the fault of the system of distribution, but the material itself. Frost disagreed with the contention that, since harassment was a par! of the world “out side”, it should be allowed in the CC. He pointed out that the CC was the only place on campus where such treatment did not exist, an important quality which he felt was worth preserving, Rowe claimed that the policy affected the people on campus who wanted to do things, particularly the Committee to Support the Fee Hike Strike. ‘She called the rule an attack on students at the university. Frost said that there was an implication made that the policy was set up to block the Committee even though the rules on soliciting had been in existance since 1975. He insisted that the rules were not intended to block the Committee. He maintained that “whereever on campus they (students) may be approached there is nothing we (the Board) can do,” but that the Board does have jurisdiction over the cc. Hincks stated that the “intent of the policy is more important than one specific group’s specific aims.“‘ The meeting adjourned with no decision from the Board.

At the beginning of the summer, the Grit ario, Federation of Studentswas still complaining about the Ontario government’s .decision to allow universities to raise their fees 10% above the existing increase and the 7.5% inadequacy of student aid in this province. At the National Union of Students Conferenceheld in Halifax from May 21 to 25, a new subject was added to the OFS debating list: NUS/OFS restructuring. In the words of UW Federation of Students President Neil Freeman, the restructuring is meant to create a “centralized student movement with and strong provincial national components”. Among the changes made would be the* establishment of one fee for the national organization (which would then distrithe money to bute provincial bodies) and an enlargement of the NUS Central Committee. ’ Although OFS had some concerns with the proposal, its reaction was generally favourable. With the release of “Is the Die Cast? - Educational and Work Destinations of Ontario’s Youth” *in May, OFS had fuel for its argument, that student assistance in Ontario was inadequate. Althoughnot a complete access study, it indicated that students from lower income families had more difficulty in obtaining a post-secondary education than those from higher income families. . This study, completed by professors at York University and funded by. the Ontario government, called for a complete access study. The OFS Executive was elected at their summer conference ih SudburY from June 11 to 15. Planning for the UPcoming year took place, and included such ite-ms as*: .. e .i action ror the next provincial election, the undertaking Of Cutbacks surveys, the establishment of strong orientation and the building of alliances with other groups concern-

with

* post-secondary

On-July 16, OFS and NUS released their briefs to the Federal/Provincial Task Force on Student Assistance in a joint conference in Toronto. . Both . briefs claimed that theCanadian Student Loan Plan and the Ontario Student Assistance Programme did not give proper aid to students and that both needed major changes before they could. The Task Force decided only to hear representatives from NUS, but has , declined to meet with OFS.

It also asks questions dealing with the sources of action harassment, the taken to deal. with the situation while it was happening and the feelings arising from the incident. Brock noted that the caucus planned to encourage the government to keep records by sex on employment and placement. “In this way,“, said Brock, “We’ll have ‘more concise facts on which to base. our case if discrimination is taking place in the employment field.”

CCB \busy this summer At the beginning of the summer, the Campus Centre Board. was still awaiting word concerning how much money would have ’ to be cut from turnkey salaries. Adcording to University President, Dr. Matthews, a substantial portion of the $5,000 which the CCB had to trim from its budget ,would have to come out of even turnkey salaries, though money was available to subsidize them. It was later revealed that about $1,500 would have to be so cut. Although this meant reducing shifts on the turnkey desk, Joyce Pickard, a’ CCB member, stated that the Campus Centre would not close as long as alternatives could be found. At the, CCB meeting of July 4, local landlord Terry Good complained that his rental units were not being advertised on the bulletin boards in the CC. He stated that he was “an individual with houses to rent to students”.

its premises would put an end to the dispute since it applied to this situation. Students Mary Gillis and Johnson Cheung had their booking priviledges suspended for six months for. soliciting in the CC. This decision ,was upheld at a subsequent CCB meeting (see story on page 5).

Survey results ready soon One in five University of Waterloo students received a questionaire in the mail which asked questions about their socioeconomic background and their present financial situation. Debi Brock, researcher for the Federation of Students’ Board of External Relations, formulated the questionaire after consultation with statisticians and a UW sociology professor experienced in public samplings. Brock mailed the survey to 20% of UW students using the criteria of year, faculty and sex. Brock hopes that the tabulated results will give an indication of whether student summer or work term income is adequate for students’ financial needs and whether OSAP funding is adequate. She will also be able to compare the summer or work term incomes of male and female students. Brock points out that a similar poll taken at the University of Western Ontario disclosed that the annual parental incomes‘of 49.3% of students exceeded $30,000. Results of UW’s poll, which should be tabulated by the end of September, will join Western’s in a nation-wide data base to be used in support of NUS, OFS and various student union statements.

The first Canadian Entertainment Conference to be held in severalyears (CEC ‘80), took place at the Waterloo Motor Inn on June 13, 14 and 15. The Conference was ‘a three session of musical workshops, seminars and live entertainment showcases designed to “educate all college and universitv I

programmers from across the country in the ways of the music industry”. Workshops were held at various times throughout the session on such topics as: promotion and advert ising, innovative programming ideas, speakers on campus, stage management, budgeting, music law, orientation, using the community, the professional promoter on cam-, pus, record companies and booking agents . CEC ‘80 included presentations by 18 bands and acts over the three weekend evenings. “The college and university market is a large and valuable part of the’music industry, mainly because (students) spend millions of dollars in entertainment a year, and supply ideal venues- in which to break new talent,” stated the Conference Organizer, Denise Donlon.

WCRI solve!i Mike McErlean, President of the Waterloo Cooperative I Residence Inc., disclosed that the last time the Co-op’s Board of Directors ratified its membership was on January 18, 1978, and that, according to the Co-operative Corporations Act, those who believed t hemselves to be after this date members were not.

KINDLY WAIT TO BE SEATED Does the above refer to bourgoise _ eateries for the middle class? Would we do that? You bet. Better service, decor and food than the average quickie restaura,nt, and less expensive than their more pretentions collegues are: ’ Bottles is named after its main decoration, and is located in a converted house in Market Village. The servings are modest and moderately priced; its a pleasure to know you’ll be able -to 8sample the soup and dessert as well as , the entree. 1, Market Village, Kitchener. The lovely plain decor and brick walls more than the’ ’ promise somewhat kitchen delivers, but the food at’ Marbles is still good. Salads, vegetables, dressed-up burgers. 8 William St E, Waterloo.

Kentucky Fried Chicken. in Kingston tastes the same as its counterpart in Waterloo. The nadir? You always know what to-expect... Put together a bland but comforably cheery low-maintainence atmosphere, with an ultra-limited menu and you have the Swiss Chalet, where a satisfactory hot chicken dinner starts at ’ $2.96 and includes a non-alcoholic drink. Take-out is popular and even more inexpensive. - i67 Weber N, Waterloo. The Tudor Arms is a nice place’to drop into for a drink if you’re shopping at Fairview Mall.

MARKETS The ones inthis area are something of an institution. The Kitchener Farmers’ Market is on so many tourists lists and guide books that you owe yourself at least one trip there to see what all the noise is about.

SOCIALIZING Ever found it easier to have-an inspired converstion with a group of friends in one location than in another? Ever wondered why? The answer is elusive but we can tell you that conversation is easy at The Hero. This lovely little corner pub serves a large array of foreign beer (domestic too), backgammon, darts, and piano singalongs are popular. King and Erb in Waterloo. Conversation also comes easy at the CC pub when the music is low. Watch for the opening. TAVERNS The K-W area has innumerable bars and pubs both in town and all over the country:side. The Heidleburg House has plain, oldfashioned cooking., ribs, pigtails, chicken, and schnitzel. It also has a happy, friendly staff, and shuffleboard, but no fancy drinks. Very popular. Heidleburg. Mud wrestelers aside, the Coronet has atmosphere to spare. And if bands on their way up are to be found anywhere its here. Be warned: lineups can be long, the place fills up quickly, and cover charges can be hefty. JWB reccommends The Pit for pinball and scenery. The Blue Moon in Petersburg is not just a pub, but a self-contained complex, and looks as,though bits have been added on to the original inn from time, to time. -Most of the university crowd is to be found in the room with

Take Erb St north to St Agatha, and look for the sign. The Lancaster House, located in Bridgeport, is a great place to go for a late night drink. Upstairs, the Ocean Queen looks like a ship and boasts jazz bands (comfortable ones, nothing too violently progressive) and a very mixed and friendly clientele. No cover charge that we’ve ever seen. Lancaster Rd, Bridgeport. UNIVERSITY FOOD What can we say about i these outlets except that ‘they’re convenient? Two are located in ’ the South Campus Hall: The Festival Room has cafeteria style service and its’ although certainly not rockprices, bottom, are still less than commercial restaurants. The Laurel Room next door has a fixed-price buffet (two’ entrees,. cold-cuts,, and a salad table), and is closed Mondays. Reservations reccommended. Sedate atmosphere. VEGETARIANS As far as we know; Tuckers is the one and @Y strictly-vegetarian place in KLW, however. As ’ is so often the case, Tuckers cooking is closely connected to whole-foods cuisine. Falafal, excellent soups, and a variety of other hot dishes are to be preferred to the pre-wrapped sandwiches. The atmosphere is relaxed, and the magazine rack ‘is a nice touch.

other historical’ -figures reach the headwaters ‘of the river, enter the tower there and confront the Ethicals, the race whose advanced technology created the Riverworld. The Mugic Labyrinth, as with the books before it, tends,-like Tolkien’s stories, to become bogged down in interesting but non-essential detail. Those not interested in historical detail and lengthy characterization wili find the book difficult to finish. Nonetheless, app’roximately half way through the novel, the action picks up; the skirmishes between Clemens’ forces and John’s grow into the final apocalyptic confrontation between the two riverboats. The battles were obviously planned meticulously, and it is here that Farmer’s penchant for detail serves him remarkably well. The final confrontation between Burton

“Though ‘some of the names in the Riverworld series are fictional, the characters are or were real.’ You may not be mentioned, but you are here.” Preface to The Dark Design Phillip Jose Farmer’s Riverworld series is one of the most ambitious science fiction/ fantasy projects yet attempted, on a-.par with Asimov’s Foundution trilogy and Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings tetralogy. With the publication of The Mugic Labyrinth, the saga of the Earthmen and the Ethicals comes to a spectacular conclusion. The story, initiated with the Hugo Award winning To Your Scattered Bodies Go (1971) and continued in The Fabulous Riverboat (also 1971) and The Dark Design (1977), takes place on the banks of a tremendousriver (estimated at over lO,OOO,ooO miles in length) on which most of humanity (over 36 biion souls) has been resurrected. Ail are twenty-five (or less if they died. before that age) and in perfect health. All four books deal with the creation of the Riverworld, and the subsequent attempts by those resurrected there,. to find out how and why. The result is an incredible blend of historical fact, fiction, science fiction, fantasy, religious speculation, and moral and philosphical discussion. The Mugic Labyrinth tells how Samuel CIemens’. ship the Not For Hire, catches up to the Rex Grandissimus, the riverboatstolen by King John ‘and how, in the aftermath, Sir Richard Francis Burton and

Anderson’s latest. F-landry ‘nod / disappointiryj .but good reqdiag she is not the courtier, the whore, or the spy that Flandry traditionally loves and leaves, but is ,his future companion - ‘with her personality and practical problems. Matters grow much more complex - two more sub-plots - when Abrams and Flandry meet, and the whole purpose of the Flandry series is again explored: The Terran Empire is falling; nothing can stop that fall. A man who has some moral capacity (of which Flandry has more than he suspects) wonders if it really shouldn’t fall - after all, it is beset with rebellious blunderers in positions of power. As a civil servant in A Knight of Ghosts and Shadotis (an earlier book in the Flandry series) says of the , Empire, “It’s competent people become untrustworthy from their very competence; anyone who can make a decision may make. one the Imperium does not like. Incompetence grows with the growing suspiciousness and centralization. Defence and civil functions alike begin to disintegrate.“What’s Flandry’s role in this? As he says

The capstone of Poul Anderson’s Terran Empire futuristic. history series, A Stone in Heaven, has just reached K-W bookstores, and, like all works of this sort, is a combination of disappointment and a feeling of, “hey, that was good reading!” At least, that was my reaction. In short, A Stone in Heaven is no better (and no worse) than any of the other Flandry or van Rijn or Falkayne novels in Anderson’s more than a dozen-volume, selfconsistent universe. It is, however, different. It is an ending to the Empire phase of humanity in Anderson’s universe, and to Captain (now Admiral) Sir Dominic Flandry’s (explorer, officer, scientik dilletante, woman&r, moral&r, spy) diamond studded career. As seems usual for Anderson, the book starts quite slowly, though a sense of anticipation is present. The world and thei aliens with which the main plot-of the story is concerned are described, as is the heroine of the story: Anderson goes to great lengths to have us ‘know Miriam Abrams - after all,

in Hunters

oj the Sky Cave, “Personally,

’ enjoy decadence; but somebody has tohold off the Long Night for my own lifetime, and it looks as though I’m elected.” The upshot of this plot, in A Stone in Heaven is that the Empire can’t be saved; but Flandry finds satisfaction in the sure knowledge that; thanks to his work, he’s created billions of manyears of peace for the myriads of beings in the Empire; and had some fun while doing it. Now you figure out if he’s an antihero or not. As in most of Anderson’s -works, the. ending is happy (if you ignore the Empire’s fall, and it’s been established that something better will probably follow). _ Possibly that’s why Anderson is such a popular author; things do generally come out right in the end, but at the same time much is merely bittersweet. Like life. Flandry finds happiness but where will Humanity end up? A Stone in Heaven is a valuableaddition to all science-fiction libraries, especially to those who have been following the series.

.. Ailing industry may be dead in five years c The price of comic books was recently’ raised once again, this time from forty,to fifty cents. While this is unlikely to be considered a national tragedy, it forebodes an end to the comic book art form as we’ presently know it. Such an event would be unfortunate. The economics of the situation are simple: a person with two dollars can afford only four comics where before he or she was able to . buy five. Sales of comic books will necessarily suffer (and don’t forget that most comic book readers are between the “ages of seven \and twenty, and in all likelihood not able to spend much more than two dollars), and titles will have to be cut.‘ Add to this the ever-increasing production costs, and the possibility of comic books pricing themselves right out of the market is a very real one. The makers of DC comics, realizing that an. increase in price was inevitable, has added eight pages to its books in the form of a backup feature. While this is an admirable attempt to give the reader at least some compensation for the price increase, one wonders how long it will last, since the same tactic was used / during the last price hike with disasterous results. At that time, DC hailed the move to larger comic books as the “DC explosion”, although _ interested readers have since termed it the “DC implosion”. Although it continued for a &w months, DC was eventually forced by rising costs to cut back to the normal number of pages (17) and to cut a number of the less popular titles. The strategy which worked fairly well for DC during the last increase, something which might become a trend in comic books, was the amalgamation of several different strips in one book. During the pre.sent phase of - increases, the Dollar Comics line (which

/includes_. such titles as “Batman Family”, “Superman ,Family”, and “World’s Finest”) has remained the same price. Marvel, on the other hand, does not appear to be ready for the increase. Although it _proudly proclaimed “Still 35V’ for a number of months before raising its prices to forty cents per book, the present change was immediate and quiet. To ‘woo readers, Marvel ‘has resorted to putting money into prizes for various contests. Despite its apparent lack of awareness regarding the presm situation, Marvel, too, has laid the groundwork for’ continuing a comic industry after the demise of comic books per se. There have been a couple of “special double-sized issues” (Thor no.300; and X-Men no 137) for seventy-five cents. There is an obvious limit, however, to the number of special&sues one can fit into this format (which is used for important concepts such as the denouement of the Celestials saga, or the fate of Jean Grey). But this is relatively unimportant; such a move is, at best, only a temporary salve for an ailing industry. What, if anything, is likely to save Marvel comics is a move to the “comic magazine” format. Magazines such as The Incredible Hulk, Conan, and most recently, Howard the Duck, and Epic are proving to be an economically and artistically sound alternative to more traditional forms of comic books. Alternatives to the present comic’ book do I exis\ and utilizing them to their fullest, the comic industry is likely to survive, albeit in .a much attenuated form. Given ‘the present _comic book trends, though, it is my prediction that the comic bookas we know it will be dead within the next five years. ‘\ ka

graphs. Anobile, ever aware of the page’as a whole, always managed to ascribe the right words to the right character without making the whole thing look like a comic book. Such is not the case in other fotonovels. Most infuriating are the,thought balloons, which have been added by the person in charge of the production. Whether they are an&curate reflection of what the character is thinking isn’t really the question; they were not part of the original and have no place in the fotonovels. Mandala Productions, who put out the Close EnStar Trek series, translated counters of The Third Kind into a ,fotonovel before handing over the reigns to Fotonovel Productions, which has put out such masterpieces as Nightwing, Grease and Hair. The evolution of the fotonovel is complete. The latest fotonovels are ill-conceived in a number of ways, one of the most important of which being photographic reproduction. Foreground figures are acceptable, of course, -but backgrounds don’t bear up to close scrutiny: they are invariably grainy and out of focus. The problems which the eye doesn’t pick up when watching a film are quite visible in stills taken from the film. (The only film #which seems immune to this is the animated version of Lord of the _ Rings. The obvious reason for this exception, though, is that every frame in the movie was conceived as a picture before it became part of the film.) As well, the problem of word and thought c balloons seems to have become worse. As the quote at the beginning of this article suggests, they have become silly and quite juvenile. A look at some of the films which. have become fotonovels is enough to confirm the suspicion that Fotonovel Publications is trying to attract a young (seven to fifteen) readership. Ice Castles, Love at First Bite and The Champ, to name a few. This is a far cry from Anobile’s original intentions, and I, for one, am quite disappointed by it. As a film buff myself, I question the need for adaptations of mildly popular films when classics such as Citizen Kane, City Lights, Modern Times, and Birth ,of a Nation (just to name a few which come to mind immediately) have yet to be adapted. Where the evolution of the fotonovel goes next is anybody’s guess: it seems to have peaked in popularity and is now on the way out. You’ll notice that really popular films, -Superman, Star Wars and the like, will not ’ be ‘translated into fotonovels; makers of those films realize that there is more money to be made by having people see the movies over and over again. Perhaps a return to the Film Classics Library format is called for; I, for one, would applaud it. Ira Nayman c

been a chanse in emphasis between the concept originally envisioned by Richard J. Anobile and the present fotonovel series. ‘This change in emphasis, while giving the fotonovel a wider general appeal, has corrupted its basic aims. The evolution of the fotonovel began innoculously enough in 1968 with the release of Draf!, which was the “encapsulated view of life by W.C. Fields in his own words.” Anobile put together stills from Fields’ movies, quotes from the movies and the text from an article which he had written entitled “Alcohol and Me”. Although &at!-bears no resemblance to fotonovels, it is important because it prompted Anobile to create a similar volume ‘for the Marx brothers. What he came up with, two and one half years later, was Why A Duck?, a “book of verbal and visual gems from the Marx brothers’ films”. Why A Duck?, which uses morethan 600 frame blow-ups and corresponding dialogue from the movies, was a more satisfying creation for Anobile, himself a film buff. His idea was to put into print the classic moments of film for those serious enough to study it, as well as those who wanted a lasting keepsake of them.

J. Anobile

Anobile followed .Why A’ Duck? with Who’s on First (featuring the works of Abbott and Costello), Hooray for Captain Spaulding! (the complete version of the Marx brothers’ Animal Crackers). and A Flask of Fields and Godfrey Daniels (featuring the ,expanded works of W.C. Fields). These were meant as Anobile’s tributes to some of the greatest film

comedians. In 1974, Anobile attempted the same thing with The Maltese Falcon, the classic starring Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor, Sidney Greenstreet and Peter Lorre. It became the first entry in the Film Classics Library, a series which was to include such films as Buster Keaton’s The General, Frankenstein, Casablanca and, Psycho. Until this time, all of the books, with the -exception of Drat!, were hardcover and expensive. This changed with the release in 1977 of the first fotonovel, an adaptation-of athe Star Trek episode “City on the Edge of Forever”. the first of twelve Star was put out by Bantam Books in paperback form and in full colour. The entire series proved to be economically feasible and very popular with fans of the television show. It also established some of the problems with the fotonovel genre. The reproduction ,of stills ‘was quite acceptable for the Star Trek- series (something .which cannot be said for its successors), although the quality noticeably drops from the first to the last volume.

4Sand aut~tibiography i .displays sehsitiwity. \

George Sand was an apostle for women’s rights, a writer and a distinguished innovator. I had high expectations of such a woman’s memoirs - too high. Her story is an interesting one, but the writing is certainly far from extraordinary. The Story of My Life in its original version appeared nightly in a Parisian newspaper in 1854-55. Hofstadter, the translator, tells us that the original ac~count was mercilessly padded as it was written to raise money for the dowry of the writer’s daughte,. Hofstadter has managed to cut out much of what would be redundant or too confusing to the reader. What remains is a quaint, perceptive and sometimes unintentionally amusing account of the writer’s childhood and first 40 years of life. Sand says of herself that her life was nothing out of the ordinary: “I never thought I was lovely, lovable or logical enough in my character taken as a whole, or in my actions, to be poetical or interesting. Oh I could have powdered my nose and dramatized my life but to no avail, I’m sure. I’d never have. brought it off.”

Sand does, however, have an intense perception of both experience and personality. She concentrates quite rightly on expressing what she perceives, for herein lies her gift as well as the book’s greatest appeal. George Sand was born in Paris in 1804, with the name Amantine- Lucile Aurore Dupin. Aurore .was the daughter of Maurice Dupin, a retired lieutenant and Sophie Delaborde, the daughter of a Paris financier. The first third of the book is devoted entirely to the story of Aurore’s parents, preceding her actual coming into the world. Perhaps it is because the writer believed so strongly in the importance of heredity that she- devoted so much time to the elaboration of her pedigree. I found,, this section interesting as a whole, but at times far too long-winded and unnecessary. A marvelously retentive memory enables the writer to recreate much of her childhood spent at Nohant under the care of her grandmother. The child’s mother had been forced to abandon her to the grandmother’s care after the loss of her husband Maurice.

Gallant’s styk of prose escapes ,’ from k&lane boundaries

The child desires nothing more than ,to be with her grandmother but understands that her mother cannot cope. Sand writes that, “along with her precious love. she had abysses of neglect and lassitude.” 1 Aurore goes, at the age of 13, to the convent of the English Augustines in Paris. Near the end of. her two years at the convent, the child unde,rgoes a kind I of mystical conversion. The account seems genuine and her religious feelings appear to maintain some kind of permanence throughout her life. Sand is, however, quick to. mention that she never “sought” a conversion, and that what originally kept her away from religion was, “precisely the fear of arriving at it through self-seeking calculation.” In 1820, Auroreis recalled to Nohant and two years later, upon the death of her grandmother, the young woman marries. The first two years of married life-produce two children and little conflict. What follows is a kind of amicable separation at which ’ time Aurore departs for Paris with. her daughter: The young woman regains her liberty and makes no secret of her intent to live her life to the fullest. . At the time of her “debut” in Paris, Aurore has already begun to write but nothing is as yet published. She becomes friends with Delatouche, editor of Le Figaro and Jules Sand, a clever young lawyer. Jules and Aurore collaborate on a book and Aurore decides to adopt the name George Sand as ‘a compromise between her and her partner. The woman was to. remain anonymous and often dressed as a man in public, for she was clearly living in a man’s world. Throughout the next 20 years Sand lives a kind of bohemian lifestyle and has various lovers including the poet Alfred de Musset and Chopin’one of the greatest musicians of his day. Sand’s liaison with Chopin begins at a time when the “maestro” is dispirited by a temporary lapse in popularity as well as the first stage in his fatal illness.

pioneer literature of Frances Brooke, Elizabeth Simcoe and the sisters Susanna Moodie .and Catherine Parr Trail1 through Victorian writers and several groups of poets to modern writers like Laurence, Atwood and Engels. Canadian writing is divided into several categories ,according to chronology and whether it is prose or poetry. At the end of . each section there are sections which ask questions for discussion and research as well as list novels, poems and critical works for the reader to study further according to . their interest. These further readings would best initiate one into Canadian literature by women. The references in this book are good-and the text is thoughtful, but the entire work is too general and provides too little information. There seems to be a lack of scholarship and intellectual depth. This is not the book for university profs; but neither should it underestimate the intelligence and interest of the readers. 1 Atwood and Laurence are the only two authors who have been given their own chapter; they are the only two studied in any Gblence of detail. The textis !supplemented by pictures of most of the authors. All are in black and white except for a few which have been tinted a curious shade of orange to simulate aging. On the whole, McClung’s discussions of the poets were the most interesting, . particularly her short section on Margaret Avison. Each author or poet is discussed both biographically and through an examination of her major contributions to literature. Plot ‘summaries are far too common. This work could have been much better: longer, in greater detail and more all- , inclusive. There are limits to what any resource book can cover, but too many good writers such as Susan Musgrove have been ignored. As an introduction, it is worth reading. Even the slowest reader could have it fin&d in under an hour. Ce!ia Gpiger (

Gettin’ BENT’

All work and no play made Jack a dull boy, not to mention thoroughly annoying Jill to the point where she refused to sit at home one more night thumbing through dull ledgers, >postulating vector theoiems, reading and rereading Conrad and then, still baffled, reading again. Jill was hip, she knew where it was at. Everyone who knew Jill knew Jill knew where it was at because she’ ‘was always saying, “Life’s a garden, dig it.” Jill had a ball on campus last year. She managed to swing her studies, frequent the Pub, let her hair down .- .or up, as the occasion dictated - at the BENT extravagansas, and still found time to flip through the hip, completely up-to-date, no-jive journal for people in the know, the Imprint. Yes, Jill caught all the action last .year, some in ivory sneakers and leopard tights, some in ebony nosepickers and designer jeans. She pogo’d with the Teddy Boys, she raised a little hell with Matt Minglewood, she faithfully accepted her share of concert blisters with Max Webster, she got high with Helix and David Wilcox, and she got down with JJ Cale. Jill knew what ‘she wanted from life and she knew how to get it. While Jack was busy contemplating the syntactical efficiency of his planned posthumouslywritten autobiography for English (for advanced minds or supernafural host) 701, Jill was boogying at the ‘Loo with little more -on her mind that the superficialities of life as it exists in this time slot, in the great scheme of things. In other words, Jill was “spaced, without a trace, trying to keep from /going insane.” (Aerosmith, circa 1974) . Now for those of you who feel: perhaps, that Jill, holds too little concern for the academic responsibilities of University life, that she has shirked her studies, let me assure you that Jill had matters quite in hand. The Board of Entertainment offered, for the most part, weekly entertainment such that Jill found plenty of time to keep her astro-physics and aeronautical design courses in ship-shape.

The upcoming school term promises much excitement for those of you who, like Jill, enjoy such modest pastimes as “Seek and Destroy” or brain cell “Toke for Broke”, and “Acid Rain excursions, aperitifs”. . To aid in your quest for fullfiilingness, Denise Donlon and her BENT friends, with their one-of-a-kind BENT outlook on life, have arranged for the following performers and events. A “Rock ‘n Roll night at the movies” heads the list featuring Woodstock, Phantom of the Opera, and The Last Waltz, September 6.. ,The original Mandrake the.Magician, who at the age of 86 has outlived every - rabbit, dove and buxomed assistant ever in his employ, will attempt to thrill and spellbind all disbelievers as he leads his magical mystery tour this way, September 8. Cano and Minglewood will bring their -respective brands of madness back to UW this term, ,due to popular demand, and for the grand finale, Carolyne Mas, often referred to as the real Springsteen, (the other more popular version merely a crotch-rock imposter) brings her gruff’tyke vernacular and hard rock edge to a ready market sometime early in October. Everyone needs a little lift now and then, whether it be synthetic or the natural high attainable from beer, weed, beans and rock ‘n roll. So remember Jill, and all like her, if you can’t get Jack off the books, don’t get bent out of shape ‘cause there’s plenty comin’ down this term. Go ahead; get BENT before you graduate. You’ may find you like it. ” MDCook

The wrong stereo .for..y-W at .- a - ’ the right price isn’t’any bargain. l

Buying a Stereo system by price alone is just about the biggest mistake you can make. It may not look Iike it at the time, because you may be blinded by the low price, but it is. And that goes for “marked down” expensive equipment as well as “bargain basement!’ equipment. For example, you may see a system that costs well into four figures that is ’ marked down many hundreds of dollars. Looks tempting, but if it’s more stereo than you need, where’s the i saving? You could get the same enjoyment from a system costing half as much. Conversely, a less expensive system at a bargain price may not deliver the sound you want, so you’ve blown that bargain too. At Schneider Sound we not only match all the coimponents of a stereo ’ system, we match the system to your requirements and budget. That way G you don’t spend any more than you should, or worse, spend less than you should. Mind you, we have”sales”too, but if we think that any item is not what you should buy, we’ll tell you so.

rem&w creative It is probably safe to say, now that September has rolled around, that one of the best releases of the summer is the sequel to Star Wars called The Empire Strikes Back. The movie is still. drawing large crowds at the University Theatre in Toronto,, where it began months ago. That is not to say that The Empire Strikes Back has had any stiff competition for the position. (it hasn’t) or that it ,is particularly better than the original (it is; but not by much). Nonetheless, the same magic which made Star Wars the largest grossing film in the history of the art form is bringing the crowds to see The Empire Strikes Back.

Excuse me, sir, but your Star Cruiser is double-parked -The major drawing card of Empire, like Star Wars, is‘the special effects. Unlike certain science fiction shows on television which, largely for monetary reasons, repeat their special effects until audiences1 are sick of seeing them, Empire has an all-new battery of special effects. For the most part, they are as good as, if not better than, those of the i original. -,I The most brilliant of the effects, without a “doubt, is the chase through the asteroid belt. Interestingly enough, a -similar effect ::was attempted on an -episode of the television series Buck Rogers in the Twenty‘S’ifth Century. The Buck Rogers asteroid &equences rarely showed ships manoeuvering through asteroids; most of them took - place just outside the belt. The Empire’s asteroid sequence, which is far superior, has the Millenium Falcon being pursued by Imperial fighters through asteroids .which themselves are moving. This sequence alone is worth the price of admission to the movie. Really. There is also a series of splendid shots close to the beginning of the film during the battle on the ice planet Hoth., The series shows the surface of the planet from the cockpit of Luke Skywalker’s moving ship. Whether or not the effect was unique tdthe University, because of its larger. screen, I cannot say, but it looks and feels as if you are actually sitting in the cockpit. It is soon after t.his excellent effect, however, thatone of the worst innovations in the film is introduced: the Imperial. Landwalkers.. Despite their being made of some indestructible metal, these weapons have an obvious weakness: they are vulnerable to attack from below. I was surprised to see the effect in the movie; any intelligent commander would have scrapped them before they ever saw battle because of their poor design . (although, I suppose, they did the job which they were assigned to do). The only advantage I could see these horrible creations having over simple air vehicles made of the same metal is, perhaps, that they use less energy. On the other hand, any Empire that can build a Death Star capable of destroying entire planets isn’t likely to.be in the midst of an energy crisis! _ , The other major logic error in the execution of the special effects takes place in the asteroid belt (it would appear that every good effect is paired with a bad one). Most viewers, I believe, appreciate the fact that, when Han Solo and Princess Leia stepped out of’the Millenium Falcon into the mouth of a giant slug (or whatever the thing was), they stepped into a vacuum.’ Thus being without special clothing or breathing apparatus was’ not a good idea. Further, the brief shots of the creature’s head rearing up out of the hole after the Falcon takes off were just silly. They are of about the same quality as a bad Japanese horror film (sort of like Godzilla on a bad

day. I much prefer the Marvel Comics version which shows the Falcon shooting off but doesn’t show the head chasing it.) The reason the effect looks the way it does is obvious: the creative team on Empire has limited, if any, experience with stop-action photography and hasn’t mastered its intricacies. Most of the special effects of all of the recent science fiction movies and television shows use matte photography, a completely different ‘process. Hopefully, if stop-action photography is needed in future efforts, it will be used in a more expert way and .produce a better effect. The other poorly executed effect which was more a case of directoral bad judgement than anything else, shows Luke falling through the refuse ducts of the city’ Bespin, close to the end of the film. There is no explanation of how he survived the fall from the platform where he was fighting Darth Vader or why he athletically tumbles towards the end of the duct. One possible reason can be found in the Marvel adaptation (which, it can only be assumed, was taken from the shooting script), in a brief scene with Darth Vader, a scene which is absent from the movie. Vader explains to an underling that the ducts suck all of the falling refuse out of the city. Without this scene, a plausible effect became an implausible effect. Yet, when I first read of Luke’s rescue; I envisioned a last minute, Perils of Pauline type of rescue with Luke falling onto the top of the moving ship. The scene was much more believable, I found, than I had originally given it credit for. Despite the minor flaws in the film (which are, nonetheless, inexcusable), it must be pointed.out that the good special effects add .rriore to Empire than the bad one detract from it. For this reason, Empire will attract those fanatical science fiction fans who like

What’s a nice character like you doing in a movie like this? What is likely to attract those interested in a good movie or those just looking to kill an afternoon (those who aren’t likely to see Empire more than once or twice) is the * introduction of new characters and the fleshing out of the old characters. In this, as in special effects, Empire is superior to Star Wars, although it does have problems. The big event is the introduction of Yoda, the wizened 800-year-old trainer of Jedai Knights who sounds a lot like Fozz E.-Bear. This is not surprising considering the fact that both were created by Frank Oz. Despite his cloth and stuffing beginnings, Yoda is one of the most interesting characters in Empire, rivalling Ben Kenobi and Darth Vader. He is articulate, enigmatic and surprisingly expressive (watch his ears), and there’is the possibility that Yoda will be the thread stringing all of the future movies together. Personally, I would applaud such a move. ’ Furthermore, Yoda is responsible for one of the two major plot advancements which take place in the movie: a deeper investigation of the nature of the Force. The Yin to Yoda’s Yang is the other major character introduced in Empire: Lando

Calrissian is an awful character, or that Billy Dee W_illiams is a badactor; neither are true. It’s just that the character is like a regular star among novas, it doesn’t stand out. It is a blank. Nothing. A nullity. Zero. To be honest, Calrissian struck me as a black Han Solo. That means that the character of therascal-with-a-heart-of-gold is almost identical in both characters (Calrissian appears to be a little more ruthless, but not much). The cast of characters has gained nothing with his addition, and, if not for the workings of the plot, he most certainly would be redundant. Ben Kenobi is not used extensively in Empire,and, unfortunately, is not used well. The character’s spirit appears in a shimmering white haze, as if invested with some magical power, The problem is, this is supposed to be an effect of the Force and, whatever the Force may be, it certainly isn’t a manifestation of magic. Further, the symbology of the “good guy in white” harkens back to the overriding problem with Star Wars: its simplistic morality. Ben Kenobi’s scenes could have been much more powerful, much more compelling, if he had remained a disembodied voice. It is Darth Vader who grows in Empire, revealing the startling secret of his identity (I still refuse to believe it!) and partially revealing his face. The mania surrounding this character is becoming more understandable to me; Vader could .be the strongest character in the first three films and is undoubtedly one of the meanest, baddest villains ever portrayed in the cinema. Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher are Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia (respectively). Although these characters haven’t the ability to transcend the special effects in the film (unlike Ben Kenobi, Vader or Yoda), and have the ignominous fate of being minor characters in a film in which they are supposed to star, they. do continue to grow and become more interesting. Finally: a brief glimpse of the Emperor& enough to rem,ind the audience that, evenif they kill Vader, the Star Warriors have not won their struggle. After all, Vader would have desttoyed the Emperor if the latter wash? meaner, badder and more villainous than Vader. ’

The Force and The Word The Empire Strikes Back is the fifth part of a nine part series of motion pictures which, it is planned, will end in the year 2001 (a not inconspicuous date in itself). Star Wars, as we know now, was part four, leaving seven movies unaccounted for. ’ Lucas, who is still the guiding light of the project, has.proven himself a shrewd.moviemaker, and it is likely that he will be meting out surprises and goodies throughout. Still, the two movies at hand show dome disturbing, trends. - Empire was, for the most part,.a betterwritten film than the original: the lines were snappier, a little less stiff. This made the characters seem less like comic book characters and more like real people. (The reason is that, although Lucas supplied the story for Empire, he didn’t write it himself.) However, this bodes ill for the rest of the series. Assuming that different writers will be working on different films, the viewer will not be able to tell about the quality of any particular film until he or she sees it. Which is, not fo say that the series is doomed to go ‘downhill; newconcepts are being dealt with every three movies, new premises are being worked over (unlike, say; the Planet of the Apes movies, all five of which had ‘the same premise and dealt with more or less the same concepts). The Star Wars series (if it may be called that) could vary drastically in quality from movie to movie as oppbsed to getting worse with each successive movie. That would certainly be different. The creators of Star Wars will have to find a way of maintaining creativity without sacrificing quality. If they can find such a balance, the makers of one of the, greatest space fantasies of all time may have the greatest science fiction series on their I hands.

_.Brave’ new wiiverse~ In 1884, Edwin A Abbott wrote a short novel called F&land. In it, he envisioned a- planar world filled with two-dimensional beings. Unfortunately, he used the story more to doralize than to theorize, and his two-’ dimensional world proved to be not terribly self-consistent. . A few years later (1907, to be exact), Charles H. Hinton published An -Episode In F’tczttand which, while more ifiternally consistent than its predecesser, nonetheless did not explore the possibilities of a twoidimensi&al universe. Hinton, too, abandoned scientific speculation ‘for blatant philosophizing and moralizing. What was sorely ,needed was a serious exploration of the possible physical properties of a two-dimensional uni.verse; the subject might have lain dormant, the source of idle speculation and the rare story in scientific

The similarity and modification principles: figure (a) represents a hoist as an engineer might build it according to the principle of similacity. A metallurgist finds that materials in the planiverse fracture more easily than their steriversal counterparfs and invokes the rule of modification to change the original design (b). An atomic physicist, invoking the two principles at an even more fundamental level, calculates intermolecular forces far in excess of those used by the metallurgist.

WLU and Western best bets again The OUAA [Ontario University Athletic Association) western division foot ball league is shaping up to be a battle between six teams WiIfrid Laurier, Western, Toronto, Windsor, Yorlc and Guelph. The final two teams in the league, McMaster and Waterloo will have their hands full in league competition but ironically may prove to be the nemesis for one or more of the top teams. Following is Q rundown on the prospects. Last year’s league champions, Laurier, will rely on their young offensive line who are all returning. They have very good running backs led by Paul F&on (525 yards on 60 carries) and Dave Graffi (356 yards on 70 carries). If Tuffy Knight (last year’s OUAA-West coach of the year) has a weakness, it is on defence where the Golden Hawks will lose a lot of players. In particular, the defensive backfield may be the achilles heel of an otherwise powerful team. Look for them to finish second. The University of Western who Ontario Mustangs, finished second in the standings last year but knocked off Laurier and Queen’s to advance to the College Bowl before being outclassed by Acadia, had a very young team last year and look good to take the league championships. Western appears to be solid in all departments. Their defence (second best in the league) will be all the more experienced while their offensive line (perhaps the best in the league last year) were all freshmen. They will be starting a rookie quarterback - Andy Rosset from Quinte Setondary School in Belleville

- but despite his youth, reports indicate he is an excellent prospect. According to Warrior head coach Wally Delahey, the reports claim that Rosset (who is apparently able to throw with both arms and averaged four touchdown passes per game in his last year in high school) will develop into the best ever quarterback at Western. That’s an impressive claim. The University of Toronto Blues have 3g veterans returning to camp . They were a good team last year but were suspect on defence. They won their big games but were inconsistent, at times looking completely outclassed. An important returnee is Dan FeradaYy for two Years the Blues’ starting quarterEi$. ye, sa,t Outatit YGyli in]uries provide more strength at that position than last ‘year. They will be stronger but will not improve on their third placefinish. The University of Windsor Lancers took the final playoff spot last year mainly on the strength of the passing/receiving skills of the Mallender brothers. Scott Mallender, top offensive player in the league, completed 96 passes, 12 of them for touchdowns. Brother Craig led the league in

The Windsor Lancers, shown the top offensive combination everyone else, will have their receiving with 31 catches for 494 yards. Craig also carried the ball 85 times for 495 yards. Both are returning. They could finish ahead of Toronto. Guelph finished in fifth place only one win out of third. Rumours have it that coach Dimitroff has had an excellent recruiting season nabbing eight or nine good prospects. If true, these players combined with the 35 returning veterans could’ move Guelph into a playoff spot.

here giving Warrior Bill Boug a rough time, should be strong this year as in the country - Scott and Craig Mallender, return. They, along with photo by David Trahair hands full with Western.

York’s chances will rest heavily on the shoulders of Mike Foster, who is returning for his fifth season as quarterback, and all-star defensive back Angelo Kioussis. Look for the Yeomen to finish sixth but scare a few teams. McMaster didn’t win a game last year. They averaged under 8 points of offence a game while giving 35. They may UP over improve but they won’t win any games. Jacob Arseneault

hena hockey team looks like winner 1 The University of Waterloo field hocketieam will soon begin the 1980 season. This year, the Athenas will have a nucleus of young players returning from last year’s team. These returnees are relatively inexperienced, most having had only one or two years in the starting lineup. Since the rest of the league is strong (Toronto and ,York were one-two in Canada last year), the Athenas must make a lot of progress this season if thev wish to finish in the top half of the eightteam league - they must take not one, but two steps forward. However, the players have shown a lot of potential, and Head Coach Judy McCrae is confident that her team can finish in the top four. According to McCrae, there are seven players knowh to be returning. Key forwards are Cheryl Chapman, who has two years of university experience, Kim Imada, with one previous year on the varsity team, and Lisa Bauer, anot her second year student who played for the Ontario Provincial Squad during the summer gaining valuable experience at a high level of Play* The Athenas will gain another asset this year in the person of Jean Howitt. Howitt, -a graduate of St. Mary’s High School - a perennial field hockey powerhouse in the K-W area -has had three years of Provincial Squad experience. Acquiring a fourth exper.ienced forward will bolster the offensive thrust, since high scoring Cathy Cumming has been lost through graduation. Four defensive veterans will be back this season. Susan Scott, in her fifth vear with the club, had a very successful season last fdi, and should make a strong contribution to this year’s defence. ”

Another plus for the backfield is sophmore Jennfer Shaw. She was a member of the Quebec Provincial Team this past summer, Other returning defencewomen are Tammy Horne, a fourth-year student, and Cathy -Lindquist, entering her -second - year as an Athena. Goaltending is still an unknown quantity at the present time. McCrae states that the defence will have adjustments to make to comnensate for the loss of some strong players such as Lois Scott, a current member of Canada’s National Team, who has used up her university eligibility. The returning players will be required to play major roles, rather than supporting roles, which will mean there may be some shifts in positions: The coaching unit will be three-strong this season. Last year’s assistant Wendy Frisby will be returning. Frisby is a Ph.D. student in the Sociology of Sport, and is formerly a head coach in the Western Canada conference. McCrae’s other assistant will be Lois Scott, also a Ph.D. student in the Sociology of Sport, and a current National Team player. -Waterloo will be competing against tough teams ,this year. They will travel to Michigan twice, playing some Division I teams from the AIAW (US counterpart of CIAU), such as the University of Michigan, Western Michigan, the University of Kentucky and others. The remainder of the schedule is comprised of games against the other Ontario schools. Everything is exhibition until the final two weekends, when the teams are divided into pools and playoffs are held. Waterloo will be hosting the finals this year. Tammy Horne I

. Rugby Warrior& -i padding unavailable ‘i Rugby has been played at the University of Waterloo since 1967. In‘ this 13 year . period,, the University of Waterloo Rugby Football Club (WWRFC) has compiled a record-of one OUAA championship, OUAA finalist, Ontario Universities clubside champions, Ontario universities Y-aside champions once and finalists twice. The-club has trairelled’to Notre Dame, Dartmouth, - and Ann Arbor as well as . having the distinction of being the first foreign team to play in the Tulane University Mardi Gras Tournament, in 1969 where , I they were finalists. The club has made several trips to Hammond Louisiana to play in their international tournament.. Last year we weie once,

again finalists in the Tulane tournament. Surprisingly enough, many of these successful teams developed from players with very little or no experience at all in rugby. ’ The WWRFC was formed with- the attitude of playing rugby for the enjoyment of the game. The invitation is open to all members of the university who desire to learn’or to play rugby. The club runs at least two teams - a varsity side, the Warriors, and a club side, the Trojans. Both teams play in highly competitive leagand coaching is ues available for both sides. The club also carries on other activities such as intramural -teams. Last year we won the ‘B’ league in floor hockey. We also run an intramural y-aside tour-_

nament - Ruggerfest which -included men’s and women’s teams. It is hoped this year we might even be able to field . a women’s ’ Is-aside team against the clubs from Guelph and Western. This year the club is embarking on an ambitious adventurewith its first Oktob%rfest Tournament that will feature teams from Canada and the USA. People willing, to assist us in this venture will be welcomed. If you do not think you can play, here is an opportunity to’be part of the club in an administrative, role. This year’s season begins September 11, with an exhibition game against the Toronto Scottish, and the ever popular alumni game will be played on September 14. This should be an

away.against .Queen’s which is coache*d by former Warrior _ captain Ralph Jarchow. This year’s club will have four coaches. Derek Humphreys who has also coached the Ontario junior team and the Niagara Rugby Union under-23 side. Phil White, who has played with the club on its first championship team and has experience playing in England will be coaching the ’ backs along with Scott Hadley, a former Ontario serum-half-and coach of last year’s successful, Trojan team. Assisting ‘Derek Humphreys with the forwards will be Jeff Sage, another member of the OUAA championship team and an experienced player - under the coaching of George Jones from Brantford. Roger Downer, a long time member and coaching associate is also working with the club this year. Once again, we welcome anyone with or without experience to come out and be a part of the University of Waterloo Rugby Football Club. Practices start on Tuesday, September 3 at 5 pm; on Columbia Field. For more information phone Derek Humphreys and Scott Hadley at 884-7343, or Roger Do-wner at 885-1211, ext. 3226. Derek Humphreys

Intramurals: more than 8,000 served The Intramural department at the with its Uriiversity of Waterloo, (approximately) 8000 participants, is the largest program of its kind in North America. Offering involvement in competitive touch football, activities, such as basketball, soccer, badminton and broomball is, however, only a small part of the program of activities for men and women. Instructional programs in a wide variety of endeavours, from ballroom dancing to yoga, from scuba diving to do.wnhill skiing, and from karate to golf, offer learning experiences sure to break the tedious monotony of 8 am classes, mid-terms and essays. While the competitive leagues offer activities of fair1.y high intensity, the CoRecreational leagues make available many of the same sports but at a decidedly slower pace, and often with the added attraction of members of the opposite (dare we say it?) sex. A complete schedule of activities is given on the next page. Please note that entry dates are rapidly approaching for r many sports.

Soccer (top left) is always one of the most competitive of autumn activities with teams competing in two leagues (A and B). Defending champions from last fall [the Caribbean Students) will have to handle Simbq, the summer league champs. Photo by Jesus Zarzar. Touch foot ball (top right) is only one of the fall activities for women in the competitive league. This game was between‘ St. Paul’s and Conrad Grebel. Photo by Ed Zurawski. Basketball [opposite] is, perennially, the most popular sport at Waterloo and Intramural competition is often fierce for men &d women. Photo by David Trahair. Seen moments after winning the Co-Ret volleyball tourney I’ast winter (bottom), this picture emphasizes the fun aspect of Intramurals. Photo by Jacob Arseneault.

. A new school year is beginning and soon the Physical Activities Complex, surrounding roadways and nearby fields will be bustling with bodies in motion. Waterloo people seem to have- a zest for physical activity. Unfortunately, the probability of being injured increases when one becomes involved in physical activity. However, preventative measures can reduce this probability. I . Many of the people who come to the Athletic Injury Centre [Blue North in the PAC) for treatment have what are known as over-use injuries. These are most often caused by a person trying to do too much, too soon, too fast. Often the injured person cannot recall an exact time the injury occurred. He or, she may say something like “Today my knee just starting hurting, but I didn’t do anything different than I have been doing for the last two weeks.” It was likely the repeated stress on the knee (in this case) during the previous two weeks which led to a noticeable injury. Most over-use injuries are injuries to muscles or tendons (which attach muscle to bone). When repeated s’tress is placed on a muscle which is not used to being stressed, some of the fibres of that muscle or tendon may tear. If the muscle continues to be stressed, more tearing occurs. When fibres tear inflammation occurs.

Over-use most

injuries common

Inflammation is the process by which the body repairs damaged tissue. When tissue is damaged, enzymes are released by the damaged cells to initiate the inflammatory process. The enzymes cause the permeability of the vessel walls to increase. The blood >vessels thus lose their ability to retain fluid and cells,, and blood serum (plasma and white blood cells) leaks out into the tissues. The white blood cells begin to repair the damage by engulfing debris (such as dead cells in the area). Also, a substance called fibrinog.en is released to cause clotting of blood and lymph fluid that has escaped from ruptured capillaries and lymphatic vessels. This clotting prevents further insult to the damaged tissue. In most cases, however, more inflammation occurs than is needed to repair the damage, causing a large increase in fluid in the area. This fluid presses against nerve endings, stimulating pain receptors, causing pain in the injured area. If there is fluid present, swelling may be noticed. To prevent this type\ of injury when beginning a new activity, begin gradually. Begin running, cycling, etcetera, at a slow pace, increase to a moderate pace, slow down if you begin .and .

ice on it immediately to constrict blood vessels- and slow down inflammation. Do not massage an injury or attempt to ‘run/ it off’ because these activities increase circulation to the area, - thus increasing inflammation.

The outdoor track season is quite short, consisting of three meets, including the Ontario Women’s Intercollegiate Athletic Association (OWIAA). finals on October 18 at Laurentian University. So while the season offers rather limited highfor opportunities calibre-competition, it gives the track and field Athenas -an excellent chance to become acquainted with one another and with the main opponents they will face in the more intense indoor season which follows. This is in keeping with the traditional use in track and field of autumn as a season for recuperation from the previous winter and summer competitions, and as a preparation for. those of the . next year. The University of Toronto won the OWIAA championships in 1979, and it seems unlikely that they will easily be dislodged from their first place position ,this year. Waterloo finished fourth last year; within striking distance of both Queen’s, in second place, and McMaster, in third. With a little luck, and a lot

of. enthusiasm, the< Athenas should be able to improve their finishing position of I last year. The Athenas’ greatest strength lies in sprinting and hurdling. This is a consequence of the fact that the most prominent members of the team are members of the KW Track Club and are, coached by UW graduate Brent McFarlane, one j of Canada’s top hurdle coaches. This orientation should be even more pronounced during the outdoor season, as most of the distance runners will be primarily concerned with cross-country. -Among the K-W Track Club members involved with’ this year’s team are Sylvia Malgadey, Leslie Estwick, and Faye Blackwood, who formed the core of the Waterloo team that finished second in last year’s ‘OWIAA indoor championships. Sylvia -Malgaaey graduated from UW last spring and has,taken over coaching duties for this year’s Athena team. She is one of Canada’s top sprint hurdlers, the 1980

Western, having graduated from Waterloo. Elaine McCrea, who ran- so gallantly last year on only one week of training, after an injury had forced a long layoff, has graduated as well. Also lost to this year’s team is BarbShowers, who has gone to teachef’s college. Remaining, however, is the core of last year’s team, a ‘stalwart, earnest band’ of second year students, all of whom were relatively inexperienced in cross-country as freshmen last year. With a year of coll$giate racing and steady training behind them, they should all look forward to great improvement this year. This group includes Rhonda Bell, who has recorded personal bests on the track this summer, Lana Marjama, who has been training steadily, Angie Hohlheimer, who has squeezed her running in between two summer jobs, and Lucy Van Esbroeck, Waterloo’s third finisher at Western last fall.

Jeanne Harris’ and Janet McPharlin alsd competed as Athenas during last fall’s season. Sue Budge, one of Canada’s top orienteers, worked out with the team but was prevented from competing by> conflicts with orienteering champions hip meets. The return of just these athletes to the ‘1980 team would guarantee the . solid centre so essential to crdss-,eountry racing. Waterloo can also expect to benefit by the addition to the team of some very strong rookies. Lisa Amsden, a middle distance runner, tiho has so far run only track at Waterloo, seems ready to try her feet op new terrain. Help should also be forthcoming from incoming first-year students Mary Frances Lloyd, an excellent middle-distance runner, and from Karen Hatchard, a multi-talented performer who can be called upbn to give the team race-walking lessons when ennui set,s in. The coaching staff is very’ hopeful that many runners not mentioned above will

schedAt henas provincial champs ‘“~hI”,‘,:;::::y Waterloo’s Athenas participated in the last major fixture of the 1980 summer track and field schedule on the weekend of August 2 in Tillsonburg _- the Ontario Senior Championships. Two became provincial champions in the process, while two ,others finished with medals in their competitions. Sylvia Malgadey, who graduated from UW in the spring and is now the Athena track coach, won the provincial lOOm hurdle title in a time of 14.04 seconds on a slippery, wet track. In so doing, she easily outran a field that included her ‘nemesis’ of last year’s indoor season, Jill Ross, of the University of Toronto. Leslie Estwick also became a provincialchampion, winning the high jump in a jumpoff at a.‘height of 1.70 metres. She also competed in the long jump, and finished fifth at 5.31 metres.. Not content to compete in only t,wo events, Leslie also reached the finals of the 1OOm htirdles, where she came fifth.

Struggling with a painful knee injury, Ftiye Blackwood ran courageously in the 400m lo collect a bro’nze medal with a time of 56.1 seconds. With the end of the current season now here, Faye will be able to give her knee some sorely needed rest. Lisa Amsden continued her initiation into 15OOm racing by _improving her personal bes; time over 10 seconds to finish third in 4:35 behind front running Janet Dick of Western, who ran 4:24. Lisa also fell prey to Dick in the 800m, ‘b@ collected a silver medal and yet another personal best of 2:11.6. Two runners who will join xhe Athenas this fall competed successfully in* the Ontario Junior Championships, which were conducted simultaneously with the Seniors. Betty Ann Vanderkruk collected a silver medal in the ‘400m hurdles in a time of 64.1, and finished third in the 400m in 56.0 seconds. Mary Frances Lloyd finished sixth in the 15OOm, running 4:47.3. \: Alan Adamson

Often students who play-, ed for high school teams come to university convinced that they will not be able to make the jump from high school to university play. However, tryouts involve more than just you playing and the coach watching. There is actually\ a lot of teaching involved. If the coach sees that you are learning quickly and seem to have potential to play the sport at the university level, your chances are good.

If you would like to talk to the coach of your sport before you try out, it can be arranged. If the coach% location is not on the women’s sport’s posters, the receptionist in the PAC (Red North office wing) can suggest how you might locate that person.

If you do not seem to be quite ready for varsity this year, the coach c-an give you suggestions on what parts of your game need work, so your chances will be better the next year.

Participation in intercollegiate sports can give the athlete many positive benefits. The level of competition is high and the quality of coaching is ‘good, so the athlete is able to get better at her sport.

Being in good physical condition gives you an advantage when trying out. Start training now! When you are conditioned, practices will be less tiring and you will hurt less afterward., It is difficult to play your best when tired or sore. Also, your coach will see that you really want to play, and coaches want people with a desire to play, since most teams practice every day and have games or meets most weekends.

Some athletes read on the bus. Most of the women who play sports seem to get their their work done and midterms studied for, and do quite well in school.

The coaches will be very helpful in giving you more information and answering any questions you may have. Feel free to approach your prospective coach.’

A high level of fitness is attained through training and playing. Sports provide an opportunity to meet a lot of people. Many present and former women athletes met some of their best friends through participation in sports. There is also travelling involved.

Keith Priestman and Jeff Goldsworthy are both members of the National Badminton Team. Maria Kasch has just completed her first summer with the National Volleyball team. Rob Town is a decathalete who has competed internationally for Canada. Kurt Mitchell,’ a 28 year old engineering student, is Canadian shooting champion and a member of the National Team.
