‘Yes for OFY carries UW campus As the smoke cleared Tuesday on the referendum to decide Waterloo’s membership in the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) the statistics showed that 1,208 students voted to stay in OFS while 659 voted to withdraw. A’ total of 6 ballots were spoiled. For the referendum to be binding, ten per cent of the eligible voters had to turn out, that being 1,549. That number was exceeded by two per cent. Most faculties voted heavily in favour of OFS. Arts voted 190 to 48 to stay in; Environmental Studies 156 to 48; Math 211 to 93; Science 66 to 27; HKLS 77 to 30; Integrated Studies6to 1; RenisonCollege 10 to 6; St. Jeromes College 24 to 1 1. The off-campus mailout ballot received 332 votes for OFS and 257 votes against. The Engineering faculty vote split into 128 for and 125 against OFS. Optometry was the only faculty that voted to get out with 13 votes against versus 8 for. All sides in the referendum debate had last spoken at a society-sponsored panel debate last week. It was a chance for all parties to summarize their campaigns and the final opportunity for interested students to ask questions. Wim Simonis, UW federation president, and leader of the movement to pull out of OFS, emphasised the financial aspect of OFS. Simonis said that UW students “are not getting a fair return”- on the $40,000 that they put intoOFS annually. Simonis also made reference to OFS income which is spent on staff and

executive salaries and expenses. Chuck Williams also spoke on behalf of the “No”side. Williams agreed with Simonis by stating that “past failures can be corrected by getting out of OFS. OFS policies are inane and ineffective”. Williams summed up his views by stating that “fourteen thousand students representing themselves is_ more effective than $10,000 put into OFS.” Bob Elliott, leader of the movement to remain in OFS and vice-president of the federation, stressed OFS’s strong voice, and representation of 230,300 students in Ontario universities and colleges, which constitutes a majority. Elliott stated that he felt the referendum was “obscuring the issues”, and that his main concern in the referendum was making sure that students are aware of the issues before they go to the polls. Barb Taylor, OFS chairperson, made an appearance in order to speak-for the“Yes” side. Taylor rz-emphasized the number of students represented by OFS, and that representatives can participate in a decision-making conference every four months. Taylor also justified OFS’s expenditures on staff salaries by pointing out that it takes a lot of field workers to keep in touch with the students, and a large executive to carry out the decisions made. Taylor also stated that staff salaries are aligned with the cost of living. Peter A. Luscombe Peter F. Saracino

Lavish dinner installs Wright In these times when universities are facing severe financial constraints-rising tuitions could force some students out of universities altogether, the possibilites exist that programs may be eliminated wholesale (Waterloo is seriously considering dropping the general programs in both Math and Science faculities)it is most interesting to note that some of the finer things in life can be retained. At least for a select few. The Installation Dinner held for our new university president, Dr. Douglas T. Wright, on October 23, was a ‘lavish affair. Held in the Festival Room of South Campus Hall, the dinner featured Renaissance dancers and musicians, an open free bar, and a menu that included crab mousse, rock cornish hen with mincemeat dressing, buttered baby carrots, fresh fruit salad, and shortbread. Over 300 people were invited, mostly university officials, senior government bureacrats, and

‘supporters’ of U W. Wright maintains that the dinner was, “a way to relate to those who this support university”, and that it was a way of attracting people here who otherwise would not have come to Waterloo during the convocation weekend. Waterloo’s Food Services department catered the dinner. Its director, Robert Mudie, refused to divulge how much theevent cost, citingthat it was not proper business practice to release that sort of information to anyone other than a specific client. However, a survey of local catering firms shows that the menu would cost at least $15 per plate, not taking into account drinks, or the entertainmenta figure of $4,500. Meanwhile, the Campus Centre cafeteria still serves 800-900 people a day. There, one can purchase a cheeseburger with french fries and a milkshake for $2.70. peter saracino

thin the last 25 years, women have begun to redefirie their roles in society. The Women’s Movement has emphasized the choices and options which are available to women today. But what options are open to men? Men’s Lives, a film by Josh Hanig and Will Roberts, was presented by Women’s Studies as part of the Brown Bag Film Series. In the film, Hanig and Roberts seek to “re-examine the roots of masculinity in our society.” Our traditional concept of masculinity is formed in childhood. Boys are dressed differently, taught diffe?ently, and treated differently than girls. In the film, an elementary school teacher said that she expects more of boys since boys will “grow up to become the breadwinners.” Young boys are given aggressive, non-emotional role models such as soldiers, athletes, and superheroes. If they do not copy these role models, they are “sissies”. Competition among men is encouraged from the start. Since they are assumed to become breadwinners, competitiveness will help them get better jobs and earn more money. This attitude can make a man who does not feel the need to compete feel insecure and “less of a man.” When they are older, men encounter tremendous pressure to be “men”. They are told that if they ‘put their shoulder to the wheel they can become anything they want’. If they don’t achieve success. it is their own fault. Menareexpected to succeed in everthing they do, from sports to sex. Throughout the film, Hanig and Roberts stress that an

aggressive, competitive, and profit-oriented society requires aggressive, competitive and profit-oriented men. But, they say, is this the kind of society in which we want to live? In Men’s iives, Hanig and

Roberts tell of men’s problems but they don’t offer any solutions to these problems. They simply say that men’s lives are difficult. This difficulty is blamed on the expectations our society im-

poses on them. Men’s Lives is a ‘men’s lib’ film. It succeeds in putting foward a cause. It does not, however, give us any suggestions as to how one goes about fighting for the cause. Pat Michalewicz

The sixth annual 1600kilometre charity run, organ‘\ lzed by residents of St. Jerome’s and Notre Dame Colleges, took place last weekend with the goal of raising $5,000 for the K-W Arthritis Society. Although chequesare Still arriving, charity run officials say the goal probably has been reached. Each runner was assigned to run the 1.7 mile circumference of Ring Road within 15 minutes. While some runners took only 10 minutes to run the circuit, others took 20 minutes. However, Stephen Emond and John Brioux ran the most laps of the participants with approximately 16 laps each. In addition, college residents raised money before the run by selling roses, ironing shirts, holding a three-foot sub-eating contest, raffling tickets on aseven-pound chocolate bar (won by Grant Wilson), participating in a jello-eating contest, and setting up a kissing booth at St. Jerome’s last pub. Runners were spurred on by letters of encouragement from Governor-General Edward Schreyer. Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and Premier William Davis, which were retid during Friday’s opening’ exercises. Debbie Elliot

Friday,

Co-op programme promotes careerism To the editor;: In his thoughtful response to my editorial on university funding, Mike Fitzsimmons misinterprets my viewof the role of the university in society. 1 was not saying that universities should be factories that- churn out bureaucrats and technocrats for the real world, as Fitzsimmons implies, but that they are, regrettably,‘ fast becoming them. Like I%zsimmons, 1 think that universities should be institutions dedicated to, inter alia, inquiry” and “liberal arts “disinterested education”, or in the words of Northrop Frye quoted recently in an article in Maclean’s, “a powerhouse of intellect and imagination and of civilization.” But the ethos of the co-operative programme and the ethos that is increasingly becoming predominant at the University of Waterloo, is one of careerism, in which the liberal artsareconsidered to beat best a luxury, or at worse an expensive frivolity to be cut back during the supposedly hard times universities are experiencing. The heavy demand for co-op comes from students’ heightened (and legitimate) con-

A

terns about their professional futures during these very competitive days of high unemploymerit, But because of underfunding, the university meets this demand by expanding in such are& as Applied Arts, and Accounting, etc., and cannot afford to maintain their general programmes. Our VP Academic recently suggested, for example, that the General programmes in Math and Science be dropped-in favour of honours and graduate studies which attract funds to the University. Aside from a general lack of interest in a liberal arts education among students themselves, the biggest threat to the role of the university, as Fitzsimmons defines it, is chronic underfunding, which forces the universities to specialize out of austerity. The solution to underfunding, in turn, is not to raise student fees, (for that would make university accessibility much less equitable) but, as Fitzsimmons so charmingly paraphrased my arguement, to stuff the bills for education “in the mailboxes of the corporate sector.” This can be done, contrary to what Fitzsimmons asserts, without further transforming universiti& into businesses themselves. It requires a government with the political backbone to demand from the corporate sector a more reasonable contribution

to their society, and the foresight to realize that universities should not be converted into training barracks. Such an enlightened government would allow the universities the administrative autonomy and the financial resources to preserve themselves as educational and financial resources to preserve themselves as kducational and not merely vocational institutes. Granted, we do not have such a government in Ontario at the moment, and, when one contemplates the future of universities, the prospect of TGF (Tory Government Forever) is as sad as it is frightening.

Women do not enjoy being raped To the editor: Congratulations on your feature about rape (Nov. 6 issue). Open discussion about this problem on this campus has been avoided for too long. 1 feel that it is necessary to expand upon one point: the myth that women enjoy rape. I was very disturbed after talking to a male student that his attitude was a woman should “lie back and enjoy it.” Hc failed to could be a understand how rape dehumanizing experience.

Remembrance Day-meaning lost Once again, Remembrance Day has come and gone, and I’m still beating my head against the same stone wall. (People think I’m crazy, doin’ what I’m doing. . .) Listen: I talked to a woman who was selling poppies. Her father had fought in The Big One, her husband in World War Two. She must have been in her mid-sixties. She volunteers for things - she gives out lillies during Cancer Week, she helpsthe“peace people”in Toronto. So I chatted with her for a while. I don’t know shit-all about what it’s like to be in the middle of a war. I don’t know what it’s like to be shot at, to know that a bunch of faceless strangers would like to separate me from my life. Not me asan individual, me as a representative of my country. I do know that people die in wars. So, the lady said to me, “Young people today don’t know what it’s like, wars. They don’t know history at all. My daddy and my husband fought for what was right. That’s the Canadian heritage.” I won’t even argue with that. War is historically (if not morally) a valid form of protest. If you want something to change (usually it’s just imaginary boundaries, but what

the hell, all thegreat causes are imaginary, right?), you can always go to war. I said, “I object to romanticizing war.” She replied to me with a yes-murmur and something like this: “They shouldn’t destroy cathedrals and mow down children.” I ended the conversation there. Isn’t that neat and precise? Some writer’s metaphor has entered the public consciousness: Mowing down children, like blades of grass, wheat before a scythe. And destroying cathedrals. What about the people who died? Snuffed it, deepsixed, cross the great beyond, fucking enditalldied? Maybe Harlan Ellison was right. We should take the moon, build bases there and run regular shuttle flights. Then all battles could be fought there, saving the precious land and buildings. I want Remembrance Day tocontinue. I want peoplFto realize that other people died, gave up their lives. Maybe there are causes worth dying for; I’ve never been in a situation where I’ve had to make that choice. But these people chose, and - through bad luck, high-level mismanagement, or s&idal intentions - died. Remember that. John McMullen

With over $26,000 in excess revenue, the Federation of Students is looking for places to spend this money. At a budget re-allocation meeting last Friday, Wim Simonis, federation president, Doug Clark, federation treasurer, and Dave Wilkie, federation councillor, met to discuss where the money could be spent, and to listen to people who hoped for a portion of this sum. Simonis cited several reasons for the surplus of funds. He announced that sales in the Campus Centre pub were up by 90 per cent over last year. Also, more money was realized from Federation Fees (see chart)-there being more students enrolled, and fewer were refunding. “We’ll be turning over nearly $1 million this year and we need to act mere like a business”, said Simonis. He suggested that the federation should begin to do long range planning, something it has not actively done before. “We are stable enough now”, he said, “where we can start looking at other (unspecified) ventures”. A representative of the St. Jeromes-Notre Dame - 1600 km Charity Run approached the three and requested that the federation consider aiding their cause with any available funds. All the proceeds of the run would be donated to the local chapter of the Arthritis Society of Canada. Simonis suggested that $500 be an appropriate sum and the consensus was that this be the

amount taken to student council for approval. Another request, from the Congress of Canadian Engineering Students, asked for assistance in funding an upcoming conference to be held at Waterloo this January. No ‘decision was reached on funding, nor was a doIlar figure discussed. A list of budget proposals prepared by Clark Iisted new expenditure items such as $1,560 for dental plan benefits that cover all full-time federation employees; $3563 to cover a new Gestetner copier; $600 for the president’s special projects fund (mainly for honoraria); $3,200 to pay for

The possibility exists that the federation may soon have even more liquid assets. This will occur when the future of the flying club is decided. Clark states that only two to three students per month are making use of the federation’s only remaining Cessna aircraft, valued at $8,600. According to Clark, the best time to sell the plane would be in the spring when the market would be better. peter saracino

Choosing outdoor boots? There are many on the market today. Be informed when choosing yours. Look for a boot that has lateral support and as-few side seams as possible. Good boots are always leather. Leathe,r breathes and has the ability to form to your foot. A welted construction and vibram lug outsole are also important features. Fit is important. As a rule of thumb, a boot should be relatively snug (not cramping) in the width but have ample space in the length. Professional fitting is essential. The staff at the Athlete’s Foot are qualified specialists who can give you the necessary guidance.

One of the best construction boots

methods in outdoor is the Goodyear welt. This gives complete support under all areas of the foot, and the increased sole area lends greater stability to the foot.

Bruce County Grass ************

This year, for the sixth time, Dr. Wilbur Maust, Chairman of the Music Department, will be conducting a seminar in Vienna, Austria, in the spring term from May 10 to June 4. .Open to students from all across Canada, this course counts for a full academic credit and is a most rewarding experience. The prerequisties for participation are kept to a minimum, so that the group of 25 is made up of people from different disciplines. With its rich culture and history, Vienna has plenty to offer for everyone. Two years ago, for example, in addition to music majors the group included students of literature, philosophy, psychology, history, mathematics, engineering, a librarian, a figure skater, and a ballet teacher. There were two hours of classes every morning, which were a combination of lectures and seminars. These provided backgroind on the composers whose careers had been intimately connected with Vienna (Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Wagner, Brahms, Mahler, R.Straub, Schoenberg, Berg and Webern), prepared us in some cases for particular works we were about to hear, and allowed‘individual students to pursue topics of special interest to them, such as expressionist art (Klimt and Kokoschka), architecture (Adolf Loos and Otto Wagner) and political history (the Habsburgs).

quality, could not have been in a better location for easy access to central Vienna. Living just around the corner from the magnificent Stephansdom (St. Stephen’s Cathedral), we had only a ten minute walk to the Staatsoper (Vienna State Opera), where most of .our evenings were spent. Since the timing of the course coincides with the Vienna Music Festival, it is impossible to take in all that is going on. Tickets are booked for group seats months in advance, so that we attend 3-5 major events each week together: operas, concerts, ballets, masses, and we are kept well informed as to what else is going on that we may wish to attend on an individual basis. Contrary to what this would mean financially in Canada, it is possible in Vienna to go to the opera for the equivalent of a dollar if you are willing to stand. We heard and saw some of the world’s best artists: singers Renata Scotto, Janice Martin and Nicolai Gedda, conductors Kurt Voss and Claudio Abbada . .. Indeed the overall level of performance was extremely high.

town of Rust, with its storks and good wine; a winding trip up the mountain to Forchtenstein, the Esterhazy’s fortified castle; and a tour through the monastery of Heiligenkreuz, where we witnessed the monks singing Vespers and had dinner at the abbey. The second tour was of the Wachau area of the Danube River valley. After visiting the magnificent Baroque abbey at Melk, we took a steamer cruise to Durenstein and climbed up to the ruins of the castle where Richard the Lion-Hearted was imprisoned. Thanks to Dr. Maust’s excellent organization of the course, everything tobk place punctually as planned. It was left up to the students to arrange their own transportation to and from Vienna, since many wished to travel or work in Europe before or after the course. Certainly spring is the most beautiful time of year to be there. While a working knowledge of German is unmistakably an asset if you are planning to take the course, it is not essential. During the weeks of the Music Festival everything in Vienna is printed in several languages. You will find it to be a city of marked contrasts. The hotel, along with most other housing in central Vienna, is 300 years old. Deep underneath the city, though is a modern subway system which is amazingly fast. Past and present are well combined. For more information, contact Dr. Maust at 885-0220 ext. 54, or go to the Music Department in Conrad Grebel College. It is a marvelous opportunity to be able to live for almost a month in one of the cultural centers of the world. There will be an organizational meeting, Tuesday, November 10, in the Conrad Grebel Board Room at 9:00 p.m. for all those whoe might be interested in participating this year. J&an Chick, Mark Rowsom

Dazzle but no substance. -

The most recent viewing of the popular All that Jazz was at the World of Dance Series. Because this film has been criticized to death, this reviewer intends to explore the /director’s chor6ographer work from the perspective of a dance film rather than a film about a choreographer. Therefore, the film’s content that is not relevant to the dance element, will be ignored. Fosse is obviously a broadway choreographer. His jazz background grinds through with hips, pelvic thrusts and isolations; there are lots of bodies-beautiful, leotards are low-cut and highhipped; there is a hurricane of razzle dazzle, but very little substance. Fosse is not SO much a choreographer as a spectacle director. The exotic-erotic scene is realized as such but to say Fosse creates this through dance is an insult to dance. The movements are, on occasion, well put together, but they are obvious and not styalized in a manner that resembles dance. Fosse’s blatancy is shown by a woman, legs in straddle who flops down and sings for us through her legs. At another time, a man and woman glued like honey-stuck spoons, do a stylized walk on the spot. Movement, yes. Dance..!? ’ One is reminded of a rather well-done group strip-tease, slipped under the respectable guise of a broadway musical. The Top Hat dance with the lead character’s daughter as well as his lover, is a less feeble attempt at choreography. The dancers have the required long legs; they have good expression and are obviously enjoying themselves in this dog’s breakfast of ballet, soft shoe, vaudeville, tap and a little acrobatics. This writer had thought perhaps the theme (implied by top hats) would help restrain Fosse from dabbling in a kaleidescope of dance forms. No way. This mixing of dance forms continues through . the hallucinatory scenes wherein the lead’s loved ones plead

with him to “stay” and not die. Although Fosse is parodying himself (I think); he still has no original tiovement ideas. He merely flogs his old standardsthe wiggling bums, the sweeping arm ending in a flick of the wrist, the stuttering feet moving sideways, the knee brought up to the chest like a humpbacked flamingo. The only time Fosse honestly uses his dance is to illustrate dance as a reality in the opening dance sequence. Shot: close-up of a few moving dancers, moving back to reveal hundreds of dancers. This uniform movement, by so many, ‘to catchy music, is -inspiring. Shot: the camera zooms in on one dancer, who becomes another dancer who becomes yet another and so to clever effect. on, Shot: dancers leap high over the Camera for a dynamic, aerial result. But Fosse relies constantljl on camera tricks. He is ignorant of the potential of dance unadulterated. He insists upon loading it down with bright lights, elaborate sets and distracting costuming to such an extent that I realize that he knows that he is a poor choreographer. To cover his weaknesses, he puts stars in people’s eyes with his

One addition to the new Safety Policy will relate to the practice that has developed of taking bicycles into buildings. That inclusion will state that the parking of bicycles in campus buildings is not permitted. This policy is to be considered in place at this time and the Security Department is authorized to remove any bicycles found within campus buildings. The only exception to this regulation is the storing of bicycles in areas specifically designed for this purpose located in the residence facilities.

TM: A religion or-a science? Tr In the past twenty years, a great many cults, movements and organizations have sprung up and flourished in our society. This phenomenon is basically a response to the growing hunger for alternative methods of coping with complex modern day realities. However, serious questions have been raised concerning the validity of some of these groups’ intentions and their possible e,ffects on the people involved. Transcendental Meditation is one of the most familiar of these alternatives. It has developed into a movement that has penetrated all facets of society, including politics and education. Tom Wilkins, a former instructor in TM, showed The Silhoue& a highly confidential report submitted to the Quebec provincial government in 1978 by the World Plan Executive Council (the executive board of TM) outlining the benefits to be had by introducing TM into the Quebec public school system at the primary level. At the Board meetings of the World Plan Executive Council Canada, there were discussions about the way in which universities could be approached with TM. According to Terry, some of the Governors were university professors. There were attempts made to get some TM courses into the curriculum at almost all Canadian universities. Invitations to introductory lectures appear in mainstream publications as well as on bulletin boards lining university halls. University students comprise one of the biggest targets of TM recruiting methods. Yet, in spite of this mainstream acceptance, a growing number of former members are now speaking out against TM. The Transcendental Mirage, Transcendental Hesitation and TranscendentalMisconceptionarejust a few of the books that have been written in opposition to the TM movement.

Essential contraditions in its ideology have been revealed in an attempt to tell the public what TM really is, rather than what it claims to be. These people claim that TM is religious in nature, and not a science as it professes to be. “Today, my purpose is not to ridicule, condemn orjudge TM,” said Wilkins. “What l’m doing is making available the secret knowledge which the instructors have in order to let the uninformed public make an informed decision.” TM was introduced to North America by the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in California in 1951. Born some 60 - 70 years ago in India, Mahesh studied physics at Allahabad University. He later entered a life of spiritual pursuit and took vows as a disciple of Swami Brahmananda Saraswati, or “Guru Dev” (divine teacher) for short. Guru Dev was one of India’s most powerful and revered holy men. Mahesh entered into a close relationship with him, learning the essence of yoga techniques he later simplified and offered to the world as TM. Mahesh was dealt a traumatic blow when Guru Dev died. He wenttothe Himalaya Mountains where he remained by himself for two years in meditation. He came out of the mountains with the self-proclaimed title Maharishi (Great Sage) Mahesh (family name) Yogi (one who has achieved union with God). He met with little success in preaching his message to the‘native people, since there were virtually gurus on every street corner in India. He brought his technique to the West, whose inhabitants, he said, “are in the habit of accepting things quickly.” He began with small house meetings. Small groups of people listened to him talk. Those who were interested made small donations in support of him. As yet, there were no set initiation fees. Although it is shrouded in the mystery of Eastern mysticism, TMdoes not bear the stigma that is associatedwith extremists such as the moonies or the Hare Krishna.

Court declares TMis a religion

any teacher of the TM technique will tell you, it is not a religious ceremony at all. In no way does it involve religious belief, or any belief at all.” But the instructor, at the beginning of the ceremony, recites the names of beings of legend and history. According to Wilkins, “the initiator says that it is his way of expressing gratitude to the tradition of teachers that have passed this down through the ages. The initiator is paying homage to dead Hindu maters. ,This is a Hindu tradition. TM is teaching Hindu religion under the guise of science.” The instructor speaks San&it, and the candidate has no idea ofwhat heissaying. Only the instructors-are given the English translations of the Puja. The Silhouette was shown this translation. ’ The instructor then makes seventeen separate offerings before the image of Guru Dev, saying at the end of each presentation, “1 bow down”. He then invites the candidate, who has not understood a word of this, to bow down beside him. The initiate is then given his mantra, and allowed to meditate for the first time. “Although he may not believe what’s going on,” said Terry, “there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that there is a powerful, subtle effect. Regardless of belief or disbelief of the initiate, this is my observation after teaching for five years and having instructed over 500 people.” During the Puja, the instructor lights a piece of camphor and liftsit up in front of the picture of Guru Dev making a circular motion. This is one of the seventeen offerings. A direct quote out of the instructor’s manual explains the process: “The offering of the light presents a silent demand for Supreme Knowledge . . . Camphor burns without smoke and without leaving any re8Pdue. It burns free from any stain or darkness . . . this signifies that celestial light of pure sattiva which forms the basis and the material for the world of angels. It is the finest field of creation. When our consciousness is infused by celestial experience, then life is lived in the light of God.” In a book written by Maharishi, entitled Serenity Without Drugs (Signet, 1968) he says, “There are some who try to make use of the supernatural power of creation by contacting the spirit world through a medium or through invoking spirits. That is on a limited level of strength because no spirit is in possession of the total power of nature. There may be spirits who may be more powerful than man, but invoking these spirits or behaving as a medium for them is not a practice to beencouraged.” “But what else is the Puja but the invoking of spirits?’ said Wilkins. When Wilkins became an instructor, he signed the Initiator’s Pledge of Loyalty, a highly confidential document. The following are some exerpts: “ . . . as a teacher.. . except as greed in writing I expectto receive no monetary compensation but am fully compensated by the love and joy that 1receive from the work. . . I further recognize that as a Meditation Guide and Initiator I am a link in the chain of organizations that you have founded.” It continues, “It is my fortune, Guru Dev, that I have been accepted to serve the Holy Tradition and spread the Light of God to all those who need it . . . and I promise on your altar, Guru Dev, that with all my heart and mind I will always work within the framework of the Organization founded by Maharishi.” “Scientific, huh,” commented Wilkins. “You see, Maharishi claims to be an exponent of the truth, which he claims is a non-changing reality. If that be true, how can truth and deception walk hand in hand?’ Unable to reconcile himself with this essential fallacy any longer, Wilkins left the TM movement on October 21,1975, giving up a powerful and prestigious position. He is not alone. A lot of people involved in TM, especiallythose still in their first few months of belonging, are dropping out. As well, according to Terry, a lot of the initiators are splitting up their marriage. Raj Hathiramani, a McMaster student, presently practices TM. “It has helped me to be more objective about my personality,*’ he said. “I can differentiate between vanity and pride, I can control my ego, and I can numb my senses. This helps me to be less tense in otherwise tense situations.” “The whole ideology behind TM,” he said, “is that you can attune your mind to reaching the higher astral causal levels of the universe. But it’s definitely not a science, it’s an art. It is culturally bound. You’can’t teach someone TM or Hinduism because it’s a way of life. It’s the same as trying to teach someone a martial art. You can show them how to do it, but it’s impossible to show them how to live it.” Raj has never been instructed in TM. Instead, he learned it unofficially from his mother and grandmother and their guru. “I’m very orthodox,‘* he said. “ldon’tthink TM should be taught. You don’t know what you’re getting into.” What does all this mean? Why are the people involved in TM at the instructional level apparently deliberately attempting to deceive others? Most TM teachers, according to Terry, are sincere in what they do and say. They are merely agents for the Maharishi’s own intentions. Obviously, the po!icy-making process starts at the top.

On October 19, 1977, the U.S. District Court for New Jersey ruled that TM was religious in nature, and that its presence in the public schools violated the establishment clause of the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution. In a course entitled “Science of Creative Intelligence”, TM and its associated doctrinal teachings had been offered as an elective in five New Jersey high schools at public expense, using both the state and federal funds. This arrangement was challenged by the Spiritual Counterfeits Project and a group of local parents and clergymen, who claimed that TM was a religious teaching and practice and had no place in the public schools. In the case of Malnak vs. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Judge Meanor ruled that the government was “establishing” a religion by supporting TM, thus violating the constitutional principle of separation of church and state. Judge Meanor concluded: “Although defendants have submitted well over 1500 pages of briefs, affidavits and deposition testimony . . . defendants have failed to raise the slightest doubt as to the facts or as to the religious nature of the teachings of the “Science of Creative Intelligence.” The U.S.organization of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi appealed the decision, which was heard on Dec. 11, 1978, by a three-judge panel of the Circuit Court in Philadelphia. On February 2, the three judges handed down their ruling. It supported Judge Meanor’s decision in the original hearing, finding the SCI-TM course to be religious in nature. * Judge Adams, a member of the panel, observed the need to define religion and proceeded to do so. He suggests three specific elements which identify religion. (1) The nature or content of the ideas in question: do they relate to “the sum and essence of one’s basic attitudes to the fundamental problems of human existence?” (2) While a science course may approach ultimate questions (such as, where did the world come from?) Adams says that, “it is unlikely to offer a systematic series of answers to them that might begin to resemble a religion.” This would include formal services, ceremonial functions, and structure and organization. Judge Adams finally stated that TM is not just “religious” but is a “religion”: SCI-TM is not a Theisitic Religion, but it is nonetheless a constitutionally protected religion. It concerns itself with the same search for ultimate truth as other religions and seeks to offer a comprehensive and critically important answer to the auestions and doubts that haunt modern man.”

Every week night, I walk south to College Street from 564 Spadina where I buy the early morning edition of the Globe & Mail. I pay 20 cents, add a time for a tip, feeling a sad sort of contempt for those news vendors. In the last week of April, there was an Indian girl with thin, broken nailed fingers feverously clutching a cigarette. I wasn’,t shocked that night, when she offered not only the early morning editio of the Globe & Mail to take home but also her thin and wasted looking body. I have not been a good man, I have found evil coming from me in my prior experiences with women and I was tempted again, but maybe because the -News Girl reminded me of one of my sisters or maybe because I just got paid earlier that day, for whatever reason, I gave the News Girl 50 dollars to help her on her way to beyond the Rocky Mountains, to the shores of the vast beckoning ocean where she said her parents lived. I’d like to offer a lot of different endings for this narration, endings like I saw her going into the Silver Dollar later that night or I got a letter of thanks from some place beyond the B. C. mountains but I don’t know what happened to that News Girl though I feel a sad sort of wonder. George Kenny

,Production A reviewer cannot excuse a production because it is amateur. That’s my opinion. The minute a production becomes inconsistent or incongruous, then it fails. This is the - opinion of a reviewer whose seminar I attended this past weekend. I agree with him. Pinocchio, presented by the Drama Group here at the University, was certainly an amateur production. It was inconsistent; characters walked through walls as well as doors. Gepetto walked on stage through the back end of the whale instead of the mouth. The fact that the audience was almost entirely made upof 4-9 year old children and their teachers did not excuse the lack of effective lighting, inconsistent and often poor projection, scene changes which were often messy and which were too long for the hyperactive audience. In my opinion, Pinocchio was a failure. This special 100th birthday special presentation of Pi-

nocchio was adapted from the book by Carlo Collodi. UW thinly spread eight cast members across nineteen roles having the good sense to let Lesley Waterfield concentrate her energies in the single role of Pinocchio and carry the show with its only continuity. Lesley’s biggest difficulty was relating to the young audience. s The theatre is not a place of simply make-believe for children. It is also a place of interaction. The children answered all the rhetorical questions. They counselled the actors and actresses as they faced dilemmas. The actors and actresses were not sufficiently prepared for the audience reaction and participation; therefore, lines were constantly lost amidst the screaming and yelling of the children. This posed an especially difficult problem for Chris Spencer in the role of Jiminy Cricket. ,Chris had volume difficulties with his squeaking cricket voice. It was never loud enough.

Canadian art exhibit opens here “An art gallery is many sided, but two of itsphasesare acquisition and education, to possess and to give.” Those words, written in 1928 by Arthur Lismer, founder of the Art Gallery of Ontario School, aptly apply to the November 12th unveiling of the A.G.O. Staff Exhibition at the UW Arts Centre Gallery. The Toronto based gallery will give Waterloo area residents a unique opportunity to view the works of 15 artists, who are on the staff of their gallery’s Activity Centre. The . exhibition will include paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures. The group exhibition will include works by Jim Thornton, the head of the Gallery school since 1978. The other participating artists work at A.G.O. as technicians,education officers, or instructors. What they have if7 common is education experience in the

Lightfoot On Thursday October 5 at 8:02 pm, one of Canada’s greatest singer/songwriters, walked onto the stage of the Centre in the Square. ’ Gordon Lightfoot has been delighting audiences with his music foralmost twenty years. But age has not affected Canada’s leading folkstar. My first trip to the Centre in the Square was truly an impressionable experience. The impressiveness of the design of the building was only exceeded by the fantastic acoustics. The sound did not squeak out and try to reach you as if from some distant planet, nor did it blast you out of your seat. Instead, it enveloped you, as did Lightfoot’s music. From the soothing melody of Zfyou could read my Mind to

studio arts derived from a close involvement with the Gallery School. The school, founded over 50 years ago, has involved many of Canada’s best known artists, such as William Ronald, Michael Snow, William Winthrow and David Rabinovic h. The vitality, variety and depth of the work in this exhibition confirms that the tradition of involving outstanding Canadian talent in their programmes is still very much alive at the Art Gallery of Ontaio.An informal opening will be held at the UW Arts Centre Gallery on November 15th at 2 p.m. when visitors will be given a chance to meet and talk with the artists. Located in the Modern Languages Building at the University of Waterloo, gallery hours are Monday to Friday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Sundays 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Other areas of the production were also weak. The music which accompanied the scene changes was patchy. It opened the show inappropriately. This long empty lull quieted the children for about one minute, and when the lights did not change, the stage did not come to life, the kids went back to playing. Jiminy Cricket appeared in a wandering spot and tried to establish’a rapport with the audience. He managed to get the children’s attention and

At one point in the second half of the show, when Lightfoot was making a fuss over not having some of his new material down perfectly, one girl shouted out, “We love you anyway!” Lightfoot smiled, and the whole audience applauded, showing that they too felt the same way.

levels apples’ while saying their lines. Lesley Gordon put in a good all round performance as Harlequin, Dr. Crow, and the Parrot. Her facility for these types of roles has been noted in the past. She is well cast here. An area seemingly overlooked in the play’s direction is the use of lighting. An effective lighting sequence could have created the fairy tale mood during the first piece of music and could have successfully

carried the scene changes. As presented, the play was choppy, monotonous and ill-prepared, or perhaps less prepared than it could have been. Overall, the play Pinocchio was not well enough prepared to be put in front of a children’s audience. Long stage changes made the audience impatient. Small voices kept crying out: Is this the end? As far as I’m concerned, fairytales shouldn’t have flaws. 1 Patricia L. Shore

great-- entertainers

There are concerts that I attend primarily tolisten to the music (eg. Supertramp). There are others that I attend to see the show (Kiss). There are still others that I attend in order to watch talented musicians perform, as well as listen to the music. Last Friday at Bingeman Park I saw the best show of this latter type that I have ever seen. The evening began with a 45minute set by Canadian Rocker B.B. Gabor. It wasn’t a bad set, but it wasn’t a great one, either. (I didn’t really care; I wasn’t there to see B.B.). There are two things Gabor could do to improve his show: learn how to end a song (they tended to drag on), and try to make it look like he and his band are enjoying themselves. C’mon boys, rock and roll is supposed to be fun! After that was over I went and stood right in front of the stage, to guarantee a good vantage point from which to view the main attraction. As it turned out, I was standing up there for over an hour and a half before the band appeared (they had a lot of technical problems) but it was well worth the wait. The show had been advertised as a Chris Spedding concert. Spedding is an extraordinarily gifted guitar player who, over the past decadeplus, has played sessions for a large number of musicians. I had seen him twice earlier; once with a group called The Necessarys and again with exSharks bandmate Snips. Both times, Mr. Spedding appeared rather distant, almost bored.

the haunting sound of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Lightfoot kept the audience’s attention and certainly lived up to his reputation as a great entertainer. In between songs, Lightfoot attempted to get a little rapport going with the audience, but they were basically slow to get his jokes, and generally unresponsive except for a brave few who shouted out their feelings much to Lightfoot’s delight.

hold it, before the curtains squeaked open for the first scene. The play improved as it progressed. Some sequences were obviously more well rehearsed than others. I had the distinct feeling though, that no one had thought to view the play from the audience to see the effect of the direction and blocking. Maria’s walking through the walls bothered me. Many of the crew proved distracting as they‘bobbedfor

Despite what Lightfoot said about his new music, however, I was unable to detect any flaws. The new pieces which Lightfoot played, mixed with just enough old ones to keep the audience happy, were all distinctly “Lightfoot songs”. They followed in his old tradition of a slight “country twang” in the melody, and, of course, excellent lyrics. ; Lightfoot also delighted his audience, which included his mother and sister, with Cotton Jenny, Endless Wire, Old Dan’s Records, and The Ghosts of Cape Horn. All in all, it was a. performance which allowed you to sit back and do nothing but be entertained. I was able to leave the theatre feeling as though I had gotten what I came there to get. Peter A.Luscombe

He seemed to be a man in search of a band that could offer some motivation, something to hold his interest; a band in which he could simply be a guitar player and would not have to bea“astar”. I think he has found it in The Trio. In a three-piece band, deficiencies in the rhythm section can be covered up by having the guitar player go nuts at a high volume for the entire show. However, this tends to become boring and besides, that is not Spedding’s style. He is a minimalist of the highest order. He plays an old Gibson with a single pick-up, and uses a minimal amount of effects. He needs a solid rhythm section to create a full, rounded sound. Spedding had already found the drummer he wanted in D. Van Tieghem; he had been part of the SpeddingSnips outing. Now he had to find a bass player. Spedding’s latest studio LP, I’m Not Like Everybody Else, contains a song with the following chorus: Need a shot of rhythm and blues With just a little rock and roll On the side Just for good measure. This is an accurate description of the bass playing of Busta Jones (who toured with theGangofFourandaspartof the extended Talking Heads lineup), and appears to be exactly what Spedding needed. The Trio put on quite a show. The sound was wellbalanced, they played songs from all of Spedding’s solo albums and a couple of Busta’s tunes. But best of all, the band looked like they were genu, inely enjoying themselves. Spedding appeared to be very relaxed, very comfortable, and his playing was the better for it. Jones was all over the stage. I have seen few performers with so much energy, and some of it rubbed off on Chris; he even jumped up in the air a couple of times. Jones and Van Tieghem provided a solid basis upon which Spedding could work his magic, if he was so inclined. He was so inclined, and it was magic. Chris’ guitar playing is very understated (read “not flashy”). Having the opportunity to watch from up close as well as listening to his playing, I was better able to appreciate just how talented the man is. I have always enjoyed watching the fingers of a good guitar player at work; I got spoiled last Friday. When Chris decided to lay back a bit and just do some basic chording, Busta had a

chance to stretch out and show his stuff. Bouncing around the stage, he was a joy to watch; he even caused Chris to crack a few smiles. As I stated earlier, the show had been billed as a Chris Spedding concert; that is not

Equators!

My feet hurt, my head ached, and I was very tired. The line-up to last Friday’s Fed pub was probably the worst I have ever seen. It appears the Villains had arrived late and the concert thus started an hour late. I spent that hour watching the skinheads, punkers, and occasionally catching a glimpse of a normal student. When the line finally started moving, I silently thanked God that it was over. Wrong. There was another half-hour wait inside. Finally the Villains appeared. The band was not good. They were excellent. They began the set with “Wooly Bully” an old song originally done by Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs. In the time it took for the first three notes to make it to my ears, the floor was packed with dancers. You took your life in your hands every time you crossed the floor. My body still aches. The music was loud, it was distorted, and it was fun. The floor bounced vibrantly, and the temperature in the hall rose to about thirty-seven degrees.

Some of the folks in costume who showed up at the Villains/Equators pub at Waterloo Motor Inn. The event was sponsored by the Federation of Students. Photo by Carol Marks When it finally ended the crowd was deaf, hot, weary, and next to dead. But there was more to come. The music of the Equators was flowing, and very rhythmic. It was more reggae than ska, but that didn’t matter. Few people stood still for more than two minutes. Most were dancing. Others were dodging the arms and legs which frequently flew past. The lights were pretty good. They ranged from blindingly bright to unseeable ultraviolet. Playing next week are Martha & the Muffins, same time, same station. Cliff Goodman

Friday, November 6: Prof. Michalenko on the phone: “You might be unaware of it, but you have to make a presentation for Man-Environment 490 this weekend, and you’ve been scheduled for Saturday night from seven to ten. Are you working tomorrow night?” I say, “No, I can be there.” But I’m thinking, “Awshit, . awshit, awshit? I ‘Saturday, November 7: Well, Spedding was a drag, and B.B. Gabor might as well not have been there at all, and here I am in this classroom, and the presentations are going slow and the clock is going fast, and when can Iget out of here? Because L’Etranger are probably playing already and I’m missing it. And I’m trying to explain in intellectual terms where music (which is essentially emotional) comes from, and I’m talking about energy and presence and all the time I’m thinking that I should just drag all these people off to the Kent and then bring them backandexplainit to themlater because it would be so much easier that way. Finally . . . it’s over. I zip to my apartment, drop off my guitar, race down to King and Princess, run up the stairs, “Hi guys,” and scoot over towards the stage. Yes, this is L’Etranger, these are the same four guys who blew me away six weeks ago, and if anything they’ve grown louder and faster. Great! It turns out that there was an opening act, Private Union, and from what everybody is saying I’m sorry I

missed them. But this is no time for self-pity; the way those presentations went I’m lucky to be here at all. Realization hits like a cold bowl of chili: the place is almost empty. Where is everybody? Where the hell is everybody? Because I’ve been writing about all the fun we have at the Kent, and people read these reviews and comment to me about them, and why don’t they come out? Who knows? And L’Etranger are dedicating the second set to “those of you who stayed”and they’re looking up into the balcony and saying, “It would be a lot better if you came downstairs.” And again this band is blowing me away, but this time it’s for a different reason. Last time they came rocketing in after a horror-show of a gig in Toronto and closed out the same night onstage at the Kent. This time it’s because they’re playing their asses off for an audience that can’t number much more than thirty, and that includes a handful of slobbering clods who are throwing bottles and profanity from the balcony. These drunken fools want to hear some Sex Pistols tunes, and, to be sure, L’Etranger sound as if they could pull off a nasty Anarchy in the U.K.but what would be the point? And, if you want to get political about it, what is the point of getting all bent out of shape about something that’s going on in Europe or Asia or wherever, when there’s so much around here? And L’Etranger clearly understand this. It’s an understanding you don’t run across every week, especially in such a young group. All of which makes it a shame that I can’t make out very many of their lyrics; most of the verbal communication is going on between the songs and not during them. And as remarkable as that evening was, and as good as I. felt about it, I have to admit that it’s not all that unusual among the bands brought here by Artistic Endeavours. They seek out musicians who are real people. No bullshit, no facade, no hassles . . . Tonight and tomorrow the Upstairs at the Kent boys present Harry Palm and Common Ground. It’s a whole new approach to music, it’s like a fresh approach to entertainment, it’s another manifestation of the aesthetics of madness. I’d better see you there. Perry Domzella

In a bold and daring feat, the Menno Singers, under the direction of Jan Overduin and with the help of the KWSO, staged Handel’s imposing oratorio Saul at the Centre in the Square last Saturday evening. This imposing work, with four symphonic interludes, including harp and organ solos, and a rich ’ dramatic programme embodied in the libretto, took on an even larger air with the 300 voices of the massed choir. To make the audience feel more at home, Overduin, with the help of artistic director Earl Steiler, broke with 18th century tradition and presented a version of the oratorio in which the soloists, in full old testament care, acted out their parts. Although this made for a colourful production, and allowed the audience to follow the dramatic programme more easily than if it were performed simply as a musical recital, it is questionable whether this type of presentation is appropriate for one of Handels oratotios. The soloists, first of all, appeared a little awkward in the situation of having to act while carrying a score in front of them. And at times, one could not tell1 whether conversations characters were having between themselves while they were not singing were dramatic devices or

simply occasions where the actors could clarify stage directions. If one wanted to present a colourful production, it would seem more apt to present the oratorio in an 18th century setting, as it would have been in Handels day. Oratorios were presented as musical extravaganzas, not as religious services, nor as dramas, and in these respects the biblical costumes, the attempts at acting, the church light effects seemed a little out of place. But aside from these aspects of the performance, the concert was quite successful musically, especially considering that the choir and singers were brought together only for this production. Overduin, with a deceptive calm and reserve on the podium, managed to harness the 300 voices of the massed choir. For an ensemble that is not professional and one that was brought together so recently, they displayed praiseworthy tuning and timing, and were remarkably nimble for such a large choir. Among the soloists baritone Dan Lichti in the title role and .soprano Margaret Elligsen, as Michal excelled perhaps the most exotic voice was that of counter tenor Peter Mahon, who sung the role of David, which is usually transcribed for tenors. Al-

though the unique quality of his voice raised a few eyebrows at first, the more he sung the more one could grow to appreciate the rare beauty of the counter tenor voice. The orchestral ensemble from the KWSO had ample opportunity, through Han-

When was the last time you had a Knight in Shining Armour ride through your bedroom? That long ago? Well, they maybe you had better see Time Bandits, the latest film from the Monty Python gang. The plot could almost be from any fairy-tale. In fact, it’s from a lot of fairy-tales. Take six dwarves and one eleven year old. Add a map. But npt just any map - this is a map of all the holes in time that God (or the Supreme Being or whatever) has forgotten to fill. The dwarves used to work for Him (in the foliage department, I think) but were upset with the benefits (or lack thereof). So, they, stole the Time Map and decided to become bandits. The first person the dwarves meet is Kevin, the eleven year old. Actually, they

.

Genre: Mystery/suspense, with elements of social comment. Writer/Director: Michael Crichton: Attempts a cross between The Andromeda Strain (his own) and Dawn of the Dead (George Romero). Achieves a likeable enough product, although it isn’t in the same league as either of its predecessors. Story: Four women come to a plastic surgeon to have minor (but incredibty detailed) plastic surgery done t6 make the’mselves perfect. Three of them die under mysterious circumstances. The hero tries to stay in the company of the fourth to determine just what is going on.

genre continues couldn’t miss him - they took a time hole that ended in his bedroom closet. Kevin joins their band and they go off to rob Napoleon. From there they encounter Robin Hood, Agammemnon, the Titanic and various other beasties such as ogres and giants. Of course, no movie of this scope would be complete without the Devil. He is there, in all his resplendant evilness. Naturally, he wants the map for his own use and sets out to lure the dwarves and Kevin into his hands. * The scenes when the company goes through a time hole are perhaps the best in the show. Did you know Napoleon conquered Italy because he heard they were all short? Sean Connery is excellent as Agammemnon, who adopts Kevin when the boy drops through a hole into Greece.

Saul is a long work, and Overduin didn’t help this fact by pacing the performance quite slowly. Fewer and shorter pauses between sections, and a spriter tempo would have improved this nonetheless laudable effort at staging this demanding work.

Though one can quibble with many aspects of the performance, it was nevertheless a very entertaining evening. To hear a genre of music rarely performed in this area, and a work within that genre rarely performed anywhere, can only be a treat.

del’s rich orchestration and the several orchestral interludes to display their professional stature. Particularly impressive was the opening symphony and the symphony in the third act, which gave the audience a taste of Handel’s lavish baroque style.

top.Andromeda

Milieu: Crichton attempts to repeat his Andromeda Strain success: the story takes place in the very near future, with technology which is very plausible but just not yet a reality. As could be expected, the scientific detail is impeccable, although the major plot device is poorly explained . Maguffin: Looker is the strange acronym for a device which shoots a stream of light which affects the nervous systems of those who happen to look straight into it. Exactly why people lose track of time and don’t see their assailant is never properly explained, although if you can accept it, the rest of the movie works. Meaning: Crichton tries to raise Looker out of the mystery/suspense genre by making a couple of pointed statements about how teievision makes zombies of us all (a looker is, of course, a person who looks). The point has been made before, but it

does add an interesting dimension $0 Looker which was absent from The Andromeda Strain (and it is also responsible for some of the movie’s most humourous moments). Surrealism: There is a scene where two people are watching television when their daughter comes in, distraught. They don’t seem to notice. The scene is dripping with meaning; it doesn’t work. Surrealism: During the final few scenes, the action takes place on several sets which are being used in conjunction with computer generated figures to create commercials. The entire thing is run by a computer which isn’t able to take into account the fact that live humans are chasing each other around the sets. Some of the scenes are very funny, and, within the context of the film, they work. Cop-out: It defies the logic of even the most obtuse filmgoer that a hero should be chased by a half a dozen characters who want to kill

him and should end up prevailing, with all of his enemies dead, without having killed any of them. Stars: Albert Finney: A good actor whose talents are totally wasted. Stars: James Coburn: Plays an evil genius well, but isn’t on screen long enough to quite reach the proper amount of civilized malevalence. Stars: Susan Dey: A useless actress who deserved to appear on The Partridge Family. Acting: Unlike in his other work, Crichton hasn’t created real characters for Looker. This tends to undercut the tension of the movie (it is hard to care about what happens to characters who do not appear to be real). The cast struggles in vain against this limitation. Conclusion: Looker is by no means a classic of the film medium, and it does not accomplish all it sets out to do, but it is more entertaining than most movies currently playing and is worth taking a look at. Ira Nayman

Katherine Helmond does a wonderful job as the wife of a hypocondriac ogre. In fact, the only problem with these scenes is that they are too short. There are a few holes in the plot. The script gets a bit pretentious and tries to cover too many events in a short period of time. The result tends to be dissatisfying as none of the time travelling scenes are really ever developed fully or resolved. You want more after the scene has ended. Although many of the Monty Python crew worked on the film - it was written by Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam and John Cleese keeps popping up in various roles - it really isn’t a Python film. The starsare the dwarves and Kevin, not the Pythonites. Mind you, at times it comes close. The sets are reminisent of the stark historical accuracy seen in The Holy Grail and Life of Brian. John Cleese plays at least four characters, all in the Python line. Perhaps the best is his prissy, clean Robin Hood surrounded by typical, grungy Medieval robbers. Time Bandits is one of those films that can be takenat many different levels. It can been seenas the classic fight of good versus evil. It can be seen as a commentary on our television-orientated times (Kevin’s parents live for game shows and new improved kitchens). Or it can be taken as just pure fun. Whatever else it is, Time Bandits is fun. Definitely a movie worth seeing more than once. Cathy McBride

Everyone wonders why St, Jeromes does so well in the

Campus Recreation program. They not only win in the competitive sense, their share of games and championships, but they win in the number of participants and the level of improvement. In fact there is rarely an event that they are not involved in. What is is that makes thecampus Recreation program so important to them?The answer was elusive for anumber of years until it was realized that St. Jeromes believes in total participation in campus life. This strong sense of committment to do things well; in short a tremendous pride in the College. There were several examples of this at Seagram Stadium on Thursday November 5th. , It was championship night in flag football and soccer. Of the 80 or so teams vying for 5 championships, St. Jeromes had 3 teams in the finals. A throng of fellow residents filled the sidelines to cheer the teams on. Filled with the excitement of competition and the desire to represent their college well, they stepped onto the field. By IOpm, the soccer team had captured the A .championship l-0, over an excellent Math team, their A football team were upset by the Village 2, West D team 2826, but their second football team had captured the C level title in a prior game. Yes they won on the scoreboard, but they won much more. They played with courage and conviction, pride and’dignity. It is that same sense of involvement that leads them in the staging of their Charity Run. We at Campus Reccreation would like to publically express our sincere congradulations to everyone at St.Jeromes for their tremendous sense of involvement, committment and pride.
