-News 25th anniversary kicks Off today The plaque’s been made, the cake’s baked and the punch (non-alcoholic) mixed. All is in readiness for the launching of the University of Waterloo’s 25th anniversary year. The opening celebration takes place Friday afternoon (today) at 3:00 p.m. in the Festival Room of the South Campus Hall. It’s an open event and university pe le have no idea how many will come to the party -all st ff, students, and other members of the universitycommun i ty are welcome. Ceremonies will be brief. Dr. Douglas Wright, UW’s president will be the master of ceremonies. With him will be Dr. Burt Matthews, the immediate past president; Dr. Gerald Hagey, president emeritus and UW’s founding president; Dr. Josef Kates, UW’s chancellor and J. Page R. Wadsworth, chairman of the university’s board of governors. Dr. Hagey will unveil an anniversary plaque which will later be installed in a small park to be developed in the centre of the campus. Dr. Kates and Mr. Wadsworth will cut the anniversary cake and Dr. Kates will declare the anniversary year officially underway. Dr. Wright will invite people to share the punch and the cake and their memories and to view an exhibit of the plans for the anniversary park. Brochures outlining UW’s past and present will be distributed and Waterloo’s 25th year will be off and running. The major event will be a four day open house next October, although many other events will take place between now and then.

Technology The most current buzz word to be hear in Canadian economic circles is “high tech”. To some cononomists, Canada’s high technology more industry is even important than the natural resource based industries. But how will this industry, born out of the computer revolution and now feeding the revolution, affect thesocial and economic situation in Canada? Are the high technology companies responsible for taking jobs away from the job market, or are they creating more jobs than they are eliminating? The answer, of course, depends on who you talk to. In response to this question and many more that are raised by the current computer revolution, the Waterloo Interest Research Public Group (WPIRG) has organized a forum on the social impacts of Computerization. The forum is being held on this campus and begins next Thursday and continues until Saturday, January 16. According to Kae Elgie, the conference co-ordinator, the forum was’ organized as an attempt to answer some of the questions raised by students who were concerned about some of the effects of a rapidly growing trend toward It also computerization. became evident that many of the answers or attempts at answers would be of an interdisciplinary nature. It is in this respect that next week’s conference will be unique. The forum has been organized in collaboration with members of the Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Psychology, English, Integrated Studies, Systems Design, Electrical and Civil Engineering Departments, with several guest speakers from outside the University. Among the speakers is Dr. Josef Kates, president of SETAK Computer Services and former Corporation chairperson of the Science Cou iq of Canada and Cha ellor of the University of 3 aterloo, Ann Cameron,

critically Professor of Psychology and chairperson of the Social Impacts subcommittee of the Canadian Videatex Consultive Committee, Zavis Zeman, from the Institute on Public Policy, Arthur Cordell, Science Council of Canada, Patricia McDermott from York University and Perrin Beatty, M.P. for WellingtonDufferin-Simcoe. Speakers from on campus include Barry Wills from Systems Design and Robert Seim, from the department of Psychology. In addition to the many panel discussions and open forums, there will be a Telidon demonstration and other films, videotapes, and demonstrations throughout the three-day forum. ’

control

Is the structure of the Campus Centre Board about to undergo some solid changes or is it a matter of history repeating itself? For the first time since taking over the university presidency, Dr. Douglas Wright met with the Campus Centre Board (CCB) in December to discuss his proposal to revamp that entity. Wright’s draft calls for replacing the CCB, whose members are elected from the university community, with a seven member appointed “Campus Centre Users Committee”. It would also place day-to-day operation of the Campus Centre in the hands of a university ‘manager’ - both moves would effectively return the building to the way it was run in 1968 before students attained control of the building. The president told the Board that he found it “anomalous in nature” and that it was the only university department run by a board and not an individual. He said that a

number ofproblems the Board was having led to his decision, including: a review of a staff member (the Operations Coordinator) in which he asked the Personnel Department to intervene, and the plagueing problem of vacancies on the elected Board. Jim Frost, Turnkey representative to the Board, contended that the Campus Centre is not like other university departments and, therefore, should not be treated as such. Wright was accused by Joyce Pickard, Graduate student representative, of being “willing to scrap a system based on information that may be contradictory (she earlier said that minutes to previous CCB meetings were in error) and without understanding what you (Wright) are scrapping. And then you propose to initiate a system without understanding it, either.” The question of the ability of the federation of students to accurately represent the needs of Campus Centre users was raised because Wright’s proposal called for the federation to be responsible for nominating all the student members of the advisory committee. Concensus among the twenty odd students at the meeting (mostly Turnkeys and Gr.mes Room staff) was that the federation ‘does not represent effectively the students of Waterloo. One told the president that “the federation becomes a clique sometimes and very closed .” A board member mentioned that people who want to become directly involved,with the running of the CC should not have to join the federation. A slightly surprised and taken aback Wright replied by saying, “You leave me feeling the federation doesn’t represent very many students.” Before leaving, Wright assured the people present that he was not about to do any-

eyed WPIRG stresses that one, doesn’t need to be an expert in the field of’ computers to benefit from this conference. and that the speakers have been chosen for their ability to communicate to lay people the language and technology of computers. Although pre-registration for most students is over, winter co-op students have until Today to register without paying a fee. The forums are close to full but students may register for a three-dollar fee for each session or five dollars for the entire forum ifthereare vacancies.

OFS to be reviewed? Three months have elapsed since the November referendum and the Federation of Students has not yet submitted a list of grievances to the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS). During the campaign vicepresident Bob Elliott, spokesperson for the “Yes”vote(proOFS), stated that should UW opt to remain in OFS, a review procedure would be drafted. When asked if any complaints had since been registered with OFS, Elliott replied that as of yet no formal letter has been sent to the organization. However, as Elliott says, “I have been ostracized (since the referendum) and don’t know what’s going on around here. Ask Wim what’s up his sleeve”. According to Elliot, the delay was due to the timing of the referendum. Elliott maintained that because the referendum was held late in the term with exams following after, people had no time to get something together. Chuck Williams, Chairperson, Board of External Relations, whose responsibility it

is to ensure that the grievances are’ written up, was more specific. He also stated that there was insufficient time after the referendum. However, Williams citedseveral reasons for the delay. He stated that he himself was kept busy at the end of term with ,federation “housekeeping details”. Williams was also concerned about drawing up a comprehensive review of OFS and there just was not enough time to do a good job. “Considerable input is needed”, Williams said. People are needed to examine the organization in the various areas and the results approved by council. Personally Williams feels that advertising for the review procedure would be beneficial, allowing for outside opinions and suggestions. The final plenary of the January OFS Conference (January 24) will be the ideal time for submitting any grievances to OFS. Both Elliott and Williams are hopeful a submission will be available at that time. Anna Lehn

of the Campus Centre is at stake today

In 1968 the Campus Centre was ‘liberated’ from administration control by students who physically took over the building and evicted its director. Today, fourteen years later, the campus centre is anything but liberated. The president still has direct and absolute control over it. The Campus Centre Board is little more than a poor excuse, for it cannot do anything outside the confines of regular university policy, There is little hope that the Board, as its structure now,permits it to exist, will ever serve the needs of the students on this campus. It suffers from chronic apathy. At election time, seats either remain vacant or are filled by acclamation. The federation of students, under president Wim Simonis, shows no sign of doing much either. While Doug Wright is planning to scrap the; Board (or at least reshape it drastically) our student leaders don’t even pay attention to the issue. Why should they? If Wright’s draft plan is initiated, the federation will be the only body able to appoint students to the “Advisory Committee” thus creating another Sandbox for Fed Hacks. History has shown that when the federation has had a controlling interest in the Board they have used the CC for their own ventures to the exclusion of others. And what of the twenty-five turnkeys and twenty Games Room staffers? They stand to lose any voice at all if Wright abolishes the

Campus Centre Board. While both groups have been accused of being as cliquish as the federation, they are closely associated with the operation of the building and are directly responsible for making many of the CC’s activities successful. The Campus Centre could become everything it was originally envisioned to be: “To make a contribution to breaking down isolated pockets of learning grouped together geographically onacampus but without any true intellectual or social relationship...to invoke a sense of community.“But this will never happen until students become directly involved in the handling of the building. The logical vehicle for this, for better or worse, is the federation of students. It is the only student organization at UW with the resources to wrest control from the administration. There is next to no hope of this happening unless students start putting direct pressure on Simonis and his cronies to take action. It is imparative that they force control over the Campus Centre into the hands of the people to whom it belongs. And it is equally important that a structure is set up to prevent any control of the building by a small self-centred group. Peter Saracino

In a world of heroes many are called but few are seldom chosen. The Honourable Robert Nesta Marley (1945-1981) was never really called. But his personal talent combined with a deep sense of individual committment singles him out as one of the few great musical philosophers of .our times. While his music stirred a despondent black youth, the searching depth of his lyrics brought a sense of pride to a community long denied that most basic of human attributes. His plea to mankind is uttered in language so forceful that one is compelled to listen. Critics have come and gone, their memories hurriedly forgotten or painfully erased by brutal tyrants. The king of reggae is dead and buried but his mystical spirit is _ very much alive. It is this quality which will go the furthest in ensuring to future generations the presence of a ‘natural mystic’ blowing through the air. Freedom and progress are fused into one vibrant message which draws its power from the seach for a distinctive cultural identity. Naturally, it is the black urban, lower-class individual who identifies most strongly with Marley’s distinctive ghetto style music which springs from the slums of Kingston, Jamaica. However, his political declarations have an appeal beyond the black West Indian community. This is obvious from the extent to which his image has influenced the music industry in the United States, Europe and Africa. Bob Marley did more than make public the horrifying spectacle of man’s inhumanity to man. His was a particuarly stirring and reflective contribution which moved because it was instructive. Marley saw the challenges facing the ‘small man’ in a ‘big world’ and sought consciously to meet them head on with a vibrant and equally challenging philosophy of freedom and progress. The greatest tribute one can pay a man is to say that he was alive until he died. Bob Marley lived life to its fullest and demonstrates, even in death, that he is still very much alive. Brian Osula

HAMILTON (CUP) - Fundraising has come on hard times for Hamilton-area cults. Two members of the Hare Krishna movement were detained by McMaster University security officers Nov. 27, after they posed as fundraisers seeking donations for the Crippled Children’s Fund. The security department received a complaint that the two men were stopping people outside a McMaster cafeteria and asking for donations in exchange for bumper stickers emblazoned with “I love Canada”. The security officials

One was an American citizen, the other a Canadian, and both listed their place of residerce as the Hare Krishna Temple on Avenue Road in Toronto. The person who phoned in the complaint could not be traced, so no charges were laid. However, the men were transported to Chedoke Hospital where they made a donation of $457 to the Crippled Children’s fund.

“We could not remain in the workshop with Laurin when his government’s (budget) cuts have ruined the careers of so many of our colleagues,” said Marie-Andree Bertrand, president of the Federation des Associations de Professeurs des Universites du Quebec (FAPUQ). The Universite de Montreal was notified last week that 103 of its faculty would not have their contracts renewed, due to funding cuts. “We came here to be consulted, but while we are trying to build Quebec’s universities, they are being demolished,” said Bertrand.

Administrators and students were left alone to discuss new proposals for financing Quebec universities. This was the second of four workshops sponsored by the provincial government to examine the future of univer-

Laurin’ said his financing proposals, while not yet fully worked out would assure equality. between the universities, taking into account subjects taught, types of degrees awarded, and priority developments established by the government. “We would work out every university’s budget in the fairest manner possible.” Before leading the FAPUQ delegation out of the workshop, Bertrand had attacked the government’s proposals as hypocritical and rigid. “The proposed methods are too vague and do not leave any room for social or political values in our universities,” said Bertrand. “Greater accessibility to universities was not taken into account.” “In his speech at I’Universite de Montreal .. last February, he (Laurin) made accessibility one of his greatest priorities. Now, there is no mention of it at all,” said Bertrand.

your reviewer and because I have forked out $6 for two student tickets to the worst dramatic performance I have ever seen in my life, the drama department’s mauling of Euripedes’ The Bacchae. Even television, which at least is free, offers nothing so puerile and so offensive as this production. The Bacchae is a play about the god Dionysius who brings the gift of wine to men. Thegift is two edged in that it contains both peace and madness. In this, Dionysius is like most other Greek gods. Euripedes plays on this duality expertly, demonstrating the inherent danger in the god’s gift and,

Budget The budget of the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) may be a subject for debate among universities and even within our own federation over the next few months. The auditors’ report, released sometime in November for the year 1979-80, reveals a deficit of $37,072. “It (the deficit) had been predicted”, stated Barb Taylor, Chairperson of OFS. She cited the two main reasons for the deficit as being the cost of conferences as well as remaining unpaid membership fees. As a result, cutbacks within OFS have occurred and are being planned. OFS has to hire an chased not administrative assistant and one fieldworker. The extra work load has been divided up

One of the major areas of discussin will be “The Engineer and Space Techincluding Canada’s nology”, role in space technology, the Canadian Remote Manipulator System (the arm for the space shuttle), .and applications of satellite technology in the areas of resource development and search and rescue. The list of speakers includes Milan Nastich, president of

I

of OFS may be questioned among other staff members. According to Taylor, OFS cutbacks will be discussed at the January OFS Conference. Both Bob Elliott, vicepresident of the UW federation, and Chuck Williams, Chairperson, Board of External Relations agree that it will take OFS two years to struggle back to their feet. The preliminary report prepared by the OFS treasurer for the OFS January Conference had stated the same figure. Taylor, however, is certain the deficit can be eliminated in six months depending on what happens at the conference. Comments from members of the UW federation vary. Elliott maintains the deficit was expected, but “not phenomenal”. He attributes

UW Engineers host conference The role of “The Professional Engineer in Today’s Society” will be the theme of the Fourteenth Congress of Canadian Engineering Students (CCES), a conference of engineering students drawn engineering schools from across the country. Hosted by both Engineering societies “A” and “B”, the conference will host approximately 125 delegates at the Valhalla Inn in Kitchener. The conference began January 6 and runs until January 10.

thedebt to theproblemofcash flow and also states that “people have a tendency to misuse funds and this is probably what happened here.” However, Elliott is optimistic of recovery. Williams is bomewhat doubtful. “The next two years will be nothing but meat and potatoes”, he states. According to Williams, OFS may recover financially but the process will be difficult. Williams also believes that because of cutbacks there will be a need for OFS to select priorities and focus attention on those issues. Wim Simonis, president of UW’s federation, says of the auditors’ report, “It confirms what I thought in the first place. It is unfortunate that it wasn’t available until after the referendum.” Simonis also made a conjecture about OFS’ present budget: “I can make a safe estimate that right now OFS is in debt between 50 and 60 thousand (for the year 198081).” Cutbacks imposed by OFS, according to Simonis, may be too late to save the organization. Taylor, however, disagrees with Simonis’ estimate of the present budget labelling Simonis’ remarks “ludicrous”. “OFS is currently right on line

Fight _ incident iri hockey game overstated by press An incident at a weekend hockey tournament found its way into the news in a much different version than some of the people involved in the game quite expected. A hockey game between the University of Guelph’s Gryphons and Lava1 University that featured a physical confrontation between a number of players was billed by the newspaper Hamilton Spectator as an “ugly mass brawl”. The Sunday game was described as “rough from the start, with players trading insults and ethnic slurs.” The high spiritedness got out of hand when Guelph captain Jim Irwin was hit in the mouth with a hockey stick, causing enough damage that he left the game. Reports oft he injury range from two lost teeth to one chipped tooth. No penalty was called so Irwin’s replacement took after the offending Lava1 player, beginning a fight that quickly involved all players on the ice. As the situation was brought under control a second Gryphon was said to have “attacked” a Lava1 player and “Pummelled him to the ice.” WaI’ker’was then described by

Lava1 coach Lavoie as “a crazy man. All he wanted to do was fight.” The game ended just after the fight, when Guelph coach Bud Folusewych was accused of “pulling his team off the ice”, an action for which he could be officially reprimanded. According to the Guelph coach, however, the whole incident was “blown out of proportion” by the media. Having heard preliminary news reports early Tuesday, Folusewych was waiting to see what story exactly would make the papers. “The thing ‘that aggravates me,” said Folusewych, “Is that I got blamed for pulling the team.” In fact the Lava1 coach was consulted about suspending the game. With the score just 14-8 (Guelph’s advantage) it was a close game. With 10 minutes remaining there was a possibility for Lava1 to make a comeback. the referee refused to call an early end so both teams took leave of the arena. “It was a. mutual decision as opposed to mine,” said Folusewych. About the comments made of Todd Walker, Guelph’s

coach disagreed with the image portrayed of the athlete. He said that in nine games Walker had accumulated a total of 17 minutes of penalties averaging under two minutes per game, a penalty average that hardly made him “hell on wheels.” “If that’s violence I think we should all get out of hockey.” After the “brawl” the Gryphons were charged 122 minutes worth of penalties as well as five game misconducts. Guelph has the reputation throughout the league as being a rough team and McMaster coach Jack Birch, the tournament co-ordinator, blamed that reputation especially on Walker, according to the Spectator. Folusewych credits a lot of that reputation to an incident that occurred with the Gryphons in Regina. Walker, who at 230 pounds is the biggest player in the league is very noticeable and takes the brunt of such criticisms. Folusewych commented that controversy sells newspapers and said he would look into the followup reports. Virginia Butler

The Campus Centre in its fourteen year history has come to symbolize the struggle between students andadministrationfor student voice in university affairs. That history has been described by some as a move towards a truly democratic system and by others as putting a zoo in the hands of the animals. The following is a chronological review of the Campus Centre to help put matters in a better perspective. June 1960 Oct. 1962

University of Waterloo approves a $10 Student Union Building Fund Fee, as part of incidental fees. The University of Waterloo’s Student Council signed over the monies collected from the students for the Student Union Building Fund to the University of Waterloo. The amount of money transferred was $30,650.86. A letter from the President of the University confirmed that this contribution would be held in trust and used for the Student Union Building then contemplated. A pro tern committee formed from a number of university members interested in a Student Union Building. During the first meeting of this Committee the representatives of the Student Council expressed their discontent about the lack of firm plans for a Student Union Building and made suggestions that the $30,650.86 which they had turned over to the University might be given backto the students whowouldproceed withthe building. At that meeting the question of the represen’ tation and the authority of any governing body for such a Student Union Building was discussed. A pro tern Board of Directors is created by the Vice-President Academic, for the Campus Centre (CC). The committee formulated a number of basic principles under which the CC should be constructed, including: “That the building would be created for the use of the entire university community. ” “The activities which would occur in the building . . . should be of a nature which would encourage social responsibility in the individual student . . .“, and “The building is generally to be considered as a student activities building rather than a student government building.” A building schedule is set that calls for completion of the CC by December of 1966. The university fails to commence construction and students council unanamously passes a motion condemning administration for failing to fulfil1 its promise. Council also demanded return of the fees collected for building a CC and announced plans to finance the building itself. Under pressure from the student body the board of governors visited, en masse, the premier of Ontario to impress upon him the need for expanding the University of Waterloo.

Contract awarded to Ball Brothers tion to build the Campus Centre. Construction begins.

Construc-

Campus Centre opened without any official , ceremony. A ‘director’ is appointed to run the CC by university administration against the wishes of students who wanted a democratically run board. Administration then creates a “Provost’s Advisory Committee on the Campus Centre” with a student majority, to advise it on the building’s operation. Students council demands a return to the original plans for ademocratic CC government. The demand partly arose because of the “increasingly obvious inability of the advisory committee to meet the students’ needs,” said the federation president. Campus Centre director’s furniture is removed from his office and placed in Great Hall by students. In a report to the Faculty of Arts on the operation of the CC it is stated that student-administration tension is resulting in problems managing the CC on a day-to-day basis. About 150 students stage a sleep-in in the CC, which for the first time creates 24-hour operation of the building - something students had been requesting. The Campus Centre Agreement between the Federation of Students and the Board of Governors was approved by the Board. Theagreement acknowledged that “the group within the University primarily interested in the use and functions of the Campus Centre building is the student body” and that the CC “be operated so as to maintain and encourage the concept of a umversity community centre open to all.” The Campus Centre Board, composed mainly of students and possessing some administrative powers is created by this agreement. “Liberation Lunches” are sold in the CC for 50~ in direct competition with the services provided by Food Services. The reason: to provide decent food on a break-even basis. The first Chairman of the CC Board, Professor Leo Johnson resigns because “studied hostility on the part of administration, and unacceptable ultimatums made to him by the Faculty Association, rendered the position impossible.” Throughout the year there were many controversies over the Campus Centre revolving around the repair of furniture, the cleaning of the building, the behaviour in the building, the drugs alleged to be in the building, the management of the building and the relationship between the Campus Centre Board and the rest of the University, particularly the staff departments. The President of the University at a press conference indicated his intention of establishing a task force, in conjunction with the Federation of Students to enquire into certain aspects of the Campus Centre. The Special Campus Centre Study Committee was announced by the President of the Universitv and the President of the Federation of Students. The Special CC Study Committee releases its final report, recommending that the 1968 agreement be scrapped immediately, and that a new Board be formed with all members to be elected M

by their various constituencies. The proposal would also give the board autonomy with “policy and executive powers, subject to the ultimate veto of the President ofthe University.” The committee also deemed that physical alterations be made to’the CC as soon as possible. 1972 The CC Board has not met for nearly a year and not enough people can be found to fill vacant seats. University administration starts taking over the role of making decisions. Jan. 1973 The last “Liberation Lunch” is served. May 1973 Administration deems the CC is costing too much to run a severely reduces its operating budget. Students petition the cuts but with no success. Oct. 1973 Members of the student federation “stack” the CC Board and for the first time in its history the building is closed to students to allow the federation to use it for Oktoberfest celebrations. A $2.00 admission fee is charged. Turnkeys and other student groups protest. This marks the beginning of infighting between students for control of the building. 1976 The federation assumes control of the CC pub and is responsible for everything except the purchase of alcohol, which would continue to be supplied by the university, the official licence - holder. Today Structurally, the CC Board is still plagued by the same problems it has suffered for the’last decade: fuzzy operating rules, incomplete and vague bylaws, and elections that leave most seats uncontested or vacant. -

10 Plein De Larmes He took an old girlfriend to see Cascablanca the other night. They hadn’t seen each other in a while. Their relationship had settled into an amicable half-life, the merest shadow of its former self that could keep them convinced that they were acting like civilized people, and when he saw the flyer for the repertory theatre he thought at once of her. In a way, the get-together was somehow peculiarly apt; for he had first seen the mavie just after she broke off with him, and had identified with Humphrey Bogart as a romantic performing noble acts for a love he must renounce. But this time he was busy studying camera angles and editing; he hardly even noticed the major characters. It’s part of his latest gestalt: he sees his life as a movie. He knows it’s the same disease he had when he was spell writing regularly, but the theatrical is too much to resist. Then, he tried twice to convert the events of his life into novels. Both efforts collapsed at about ten thousand words, smothered by their own lack of energy. His problem was that part of the development was always taking place in the present; so, lacking structure in his plotlines, he tried to . introduce it into reality. When that failed, he wound down with a series of ever shorter pieces, vigne ttes’ easily constructed out of simple melodrama and confrontation. But the problem doesn’t arise with film.Iieknowshehasn’tgotthetime,the equipment, or the money to make a movie, so lack of creativity doesn’t bother him at all. He plans off-center tracking shots down the long university corridors, ponders microphone placement in the crowded cafeteria, strikes oblique poses in utterly empty classrooms so that a camera placed in the far corner can catch him as he pauses for a moment, ever so European, before flicking the light switch. He takes long walks in the twilight, seeing the muted cones thrown by the streetlights as grainy images on fast film, hearing the crunch of his own footsteps as soundtrack overdubs. His face framed in the bathroom mirror is all the more enigmatic for the impossibility of recording the image. Was it the single contact lens that did it, giving him back depth vision and bringing everything into sharp focus? Or was it the film course he took because he had a space in his timetable and sought some sort of artisticredemption? No matter; the changes in him read like a textbook on film. Gone is his keen awareness of past and future; films have no tenses, only an eternal present. Sound is merely an adjoint to the visual image. The world is Cinerama-plus, in 3-D and Technicolour, projected onto his retinas. To keep the upper hand, he had to become the -director. Every morning he claws his way LIP through all the ages of his life to awake in the pale, watery light of the new dawn. If there are any dreams, he quickly forgets them; they don’t seem important now. He stumbles to the bathroom, wiping the sleep from his eyes. His face is washed, his teeth are brushed. Then the important ritual begins: the lens is removed from its case and rinsed in a thin stream of water. It is placed on the index finger, concave side up. A single drop of wetting fluid is let fall on the upturned surface. Then he bends over the sink and inserts it. Straightening up, he blinks rapidly and looks in the mirror. And, every morning, his scowl subsides into a world-weary look of resignation as a single, perfect tear rolls down his cheek. The image is one he might have seen through had he ever bothered to write it down. It doesn’t matter ifthe tear is isotonic lens solution or theatrical glycerine; it’s spurious, false. And so are his concocted scenarios, arranged juxtapositions, candlelight-and-shadow compositions. More seriously, so is the

pain and pleasure he creates out of these mock tableaux. He won’t admit to himselfthat there are no hidden cameras. Perhaps he’s afraid that no one is watching. Still, there are moments when he almost breaks free, almost sees the contradictions in what he is doing. Watching Ingrid Bergman’s brimming eyes the other night, he became acutely aware of the greasy smell of popcorn and the way his feet stuck to the floor. And the contact lens somehow wasn’t making the film any better; the projection was still flat and the print still old and scratchy. The first time he had seen Casablatroa, he cried at the end, alone in his seat in the dark. Now it doesn’t matter who he’s with; he always sees movies alone, sitting on the crane behind the camera, shooting that last great vertical pan in the mist. The lights go up. All about them, people stir, stretch, snap their gum, as if the movie lacked some sort of final punctuation. The two of them walk through the lobby and out into the street. Snow is falling, large, lazy flakes that . shine in the glare of the mercury-vapor lamps. Looking at her, he finds his voice again. “Well? What did you think?” She yawns. “It was good, what I saw I think I slept through most of it.” There must be some echo of the past in his gaze, for she continues hurriedly, “Oh, I know it’s your favorite movie, but I was so tired - you know how hard I’ve been working lately.” IIe looks ahead at the streetlights, and at the probing, luminescent fingers seemingly emanating from them, an illusion he knows is caused by the small piece of plastic in his right eye. And he smiles slowly (cut to right profile tracking shot, head and shoulders steady within frame) and speaks: “It’s all right. I’m sure you’ll get a chance to see it again.”

away and tries to sell you headphones so that you can hear the in-flight movie. You wave her away irritably. You had finished a paperback just before they had served supper, and instead of dozing off you had to shovel the tasteless food into your mouth with the familiar sense of dislocation. Now you just want to stare out the window for a while. The stars are out; the unbroken cloud cover shines , with a false light. They were surprised when you phoned and said you’d be flying in for a couple of days. Just a business trip, you said, not much time to spare, hoping they wouldn’t hear the deceit in your voice. They’re the only reason you’re going back. Two dramatic gestures don’t -make a right; but you’re at-an awkward stage, with both the ability to afford such gestures and the need to make them. Most people turn out their personal lights when the movie begins, though a few diehards sit flipping through glossy men’s magazines. To your surprise, it is Casablanca; you didn’t think they showed old movies on these flights. YOLI don’t need the headphones anyway; you know most of the dialogue by heart. Why did you leave? You aren’t even sure ifyou knew at the time. Perhaps if they had come to you immediately, put their arms around each other with shy smiles and told you, you would have been delighted. But they hid it, for over two months, and then he had you over for supper one night. A lot of wine was poured, and the confession had gotten more and more raucous and intimate. The next day, certain you didn’t want to see them together, you called the New York office and asked them to find yotl something to do. Then you called her, said you were leaving town on urgent consultations for an indefinite period, and please give him your love. That was six months ago.

“Is there anything yori want to tell me?” Paul Henreid says soundlessly to Ingrid Bergman, up on the screen. Nothing’s ever said in this movie, until it’s too late. Maybe you’ll get around to asking them why. You need a drink; but it’s a pain flagging the stewardess, and you only get standard spirits in those tiny bottles. You must buy a fifth for the journey back. Was it the precious virgin myth, the apple-cheeked blonde-haired girl nelxt door in a white, flowing dress? No, her inviolacy had always been a source of irritation. You remembered her casual comments had hurt you when you were a virgin, and you were never sure how much kidding she could take, Perhaps you were jealous of him. You love her, to be sure, but it’s a differentsort of love more pure, more abstract, like the love Paul held for Ingrid. “I love you very much Ilsa.” Perhaps you were jealous of her? You smile, stop your hand yet again from reaching for a drink that isn’t there. Ingrid Bergman’s face is a black-andwhite study of pain. Funny, how they say that this movie appeared to be a disaster from the start, that the indecision in her eyes was more than just good acting; there were constant script rewrites going on and she really didn’t know who she was going to end up with. But it was such a perfect finale - how could it have been any other way? * A gentle bell warns you that the airplane is beginning its final descent. But the movie isn’t - oh, yes, it is, the cabin lights are on again. You must have dozed off mooning at the stars, and missed that great airport scene. “The problems of three people don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.” The stewardess is drawing a curtain over the screen. You recall the first time you walked down a cinema aisle to see what was behind the screen. To your surprise it was mounted on the back wall. To you,

a screen was never anything but paperthin. You’d been watching a movie in California, and you’d left, childishly, when you discovered everyone else was watching a different one. Being an observer was bad enough, but being a blind observer was something you couldn’t handle. But nothing’s changed. So why are you going back? Until this moment, you had thought it was,-a test, a noble ordeal you would go through to prove something to yourself. But as the plane breaks through the clouds, as the stars disappear above and the cold lights of the city appear below, you know you will feel nothing when they embrace, that you could even watch them make love with no more than clinical interest. But it’s a hollow triumph, no victory at all - you know it’s only your own selfabsorption that’s done it, that your ego couldn’t keep your passion for her, abstract or not, alive without the constant gratification of seeing her regularly. Not for you the sweet pleasure of self-imposed martyrdom; you can only suffer in not having cause to suffer. Then what purpose this trip? You’re too old for voyages of discovery, there’s no curiosity left in yore. You’ll kick around the sunny streets of LdA. and long for the bustling emptiness of the Big Apple. Turn the plane around! But, of course, it’s too late. It was too late when the plane left the ground at La Guardia. YOLI can feel the flight ending, you can feel it ebbing away, you await that first fatal bump on the runway - And the film runs ant, runs through scratched and punctured trailer tape and then the sudden brightness of the white screen. In the projection room the reel flaps noisily as it turns. No one in the theatre moves. Perhaps there is no one there. Prabhakar Ragde I(itchener, December 1980 Haton Rouge, December 1981.

4The Arts Waterloo Motor Inn Pub

Villains Attention! For those of you in search of a good time, the following recipe is recommended. First, place a generous number of Waterloo students within the confines of the Waterloo Motor ’ Inn. Next, gracefully mix an applicable amount of alcohol amongst the students, and add enough energy to run the U. of W. for a week. The Villains, of course. Tuesday night one of Waterloo’s favourite nightspots hosted a five piece British band called the Villains. In the trail of two successful British ska units, Madness and the Specials, the Villains are currently forging through North American territory that is dominated by slower and heavier rock’n’roll. In this way they have ignited interest in their own brand of Caribbean music. The group is presently based in Vancouver, B.C. and headlined Tuesdays show, which was opened by a very topical Canadian band called Current Situation. Nevertheless, the capacity crowd was evidently very expectant, waiting on the dance floor before the Villains even took to the stage. Did the floor move? Up and down it flexed to the con-

simple tinuous flow of up-tempo music presented by the band. Although not totally original in style, the ska played by this unit case distinctly pi-ogressive tones in the direction of the audience. The saxophone, keyboards and double-time drumming employed added to the progressive cause, as well as enabling everyone in the building to find a beat. And the dancing didn’t stop all night. Hand in hand with the relative simplicity of the Villains music when the anonymity of their stage show. Skinheads all, the group played with great vigour, sharing the percussive, melodic and vocal duties. However, the Villains have produced a vivid image of social relief that is easily accessible to their audiences. This is due to the seemingly infectious beat that dominates their sound. Since the recent break-up of the Specials, the Villains have released one EP in Canada. Some import pressings are now available as well. In conclusion, I would like to thank the Villains for theirgenerous entertainment and again, for their anonymity. Their songs don’t merit superstar status, but who needs it? Peter MacLeod

Reds a fine movie, but leave at intermission Reds is long. Really long. I mean, mindbogglingly long. The time between conception and birth can hardly be imagined as longer than this. I think the scrip weighed as much as a healthy baby. Consider the situation: trapped for 195 minutes, plus 7 minutes for promotional trailers, plus whatever time you arrived early, in one of those theatre chairs, so familiar to us all. The theatre itself has only minor details of architectural interest; there is an interesting pattern on the ceiling, and the snack bar closes after intermission. So much for the important peripheral information. There are really only four things wrong with Reds: the script, the direction, Warren Beatty, and Diane Keaton. Lest you think that I am being scathing without cause, let me say that Reds is almost bearable. It could have been a very good movie, even with the stars (and I admit to a personal bias here: Warren Beatty should stick to light comedy). That’s why it rankles so much. Let us begin where Iam sure it all began. The script. Oh, God . . . There is so much. It covers several minor characters in the Russian revolution. It also covers a number of characters in American literature, and just tons of everything else. Warren Beatty portrays Warren Beatty (oh, sure, they call him something else - Jack something or other, but he really is playing Warren Beatty) and Diane Keaton portrays somebody else. Jack Nicholson turns in the only wonderful performance of the show as Eugene O’Neill, playwright, poet, and cynic. It is such a refreshing change to see him in an understated role. Th2 sad part is that his role, his part, could-have been entirely lifted from the movie. What the movie is about, is the rise of communism in both Americaand Russia. Jack Reed (that’s Beatty) and Louise Bryant (Keaton) meet, fall in love and move to New York, where the intellectual action is. Many historical figures, intellectuals and others of that ilk, meet to discuss thing, ideas, communism. They are a happy group of socialists (I am sure that everyone has gone through that stage in their own political philosophy). Jack

constantly leaves Louise alone. She has an affair. Jack and Louise get married. They argue. She goes to France. He convinces her to go to Russia, where the physical action is. Russia has a revolution. Intermission. They come back to America. The communist party is oppressed in America. Jack goes back to Russia where he is held prisoner in the Ministry of Propaganda. She tries to follow him. They both move around a lot and have difficulty meeting again. They finally see each other again, swear undying love and promise to go back to America. In an agonizingly long sequence, he dies. The point I am trying to make is that the movie would have been much better if the scriptwriters had known what story they wanted to tell. There are several stories through here, each of which would have been sufficient for a two hour movie. Instead of appearing to be a complex film covering a number of themes and treatmen@, it is a long and boring exercise. The movie could easily (and happily) have ended at intermission. It would then have been a clumsy movie, but a good one. As it is, it goes on. And on. This movie is brilliant for sustained periods of sixty seconds. It would have been wonderful as an educational series of commericals. The tedium - ah, the tedium. For this, Ilay blame at the feet of the director, who wasalso Warren Beatty. There are so many “meaningful” shots, clever and symbolism-loaded cuts and sequences that they are no longer meaningful, clever and loaded with symbolism. I did, however, appreciate and approve of the semidocumentary technique he used. A nice touch. It could have been so good. It could have been a wonderful love story, a marvelous political statement, a truly enjoyable film. Oh, it it had only been - If only If only it weren’t still a cut above half the other films playing. Reds3s playing at the Lyric cinema, one show a night, in Kitchener. If you can bring yourself to, leave during the intermission. , John McMullen

The zoted Camerata Quartet fro; Toronto will be coming to Waterloo early in January to present their well-known and well-loved children’s programme Red Riding Hood and other children’s entertainments. The group will present three shows on Saturday, January 9 at lo:30 a.m., 1:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. to entertain children from preschool to eight years old. This versatile chamber music ensemble takes a few liberties with the Red Riding Hood story - there seems to be a gorilla in evidence. The programme is designed to be both humourous and informative and can last anywhere from 45 to 55 minutes. Because it develops spontaneously from the children’s reactions and responses, the length and content are flexible. The group encourages participation from their young audiences. An example would be what Camerata calls the “mood” section of the programme, where children are asked to suggest words which describe feelings such as “happy”, “sad”, “ excited”. Camerata then plays a piece which best illustrates these varying moods. Part of the programme will include an “opera spoof” in which Mary Lou Fallis satiriz,es styles of operatic singing. Vocal pieces are chosen which are particularly accessible and amusing for children. The Doll Aria from Offenbach’s Tales of Hoffman is included along with songs from Winnie The Pooh. Other pieces which are generally included are: The Golliwog’s Cakewalk from The Children’s Corner by Debussy, Brahms’ Hungarian Gypsy Dunce, Beethoven’s Piano Trio and Schubert’s Shepherd on the Rock (last movement). The Quartet will include Adele Armin (violin), Doug Riley (piano), Coenraad Bloemendal (cello) and Mary Lou Fallis (soprano). Tickets are $2.00 for children and seniors, $2.50 for others, available from the UW Arts Centre Box Office, Humanities Theatre.

Russian sci-fi flick at film series

The first film to be shown in the New Year in the International Film Series at UW is the science fiction classic Solaris, that many have called the Russian 2001. It will be screened in the Humanities Theatre on Tuesday, January 12 at 800 p.m. Also on the programme that evening is the 1 short subject entitled Closet Cases of the Nerd Kind which asks the question, “what powerful unknown force can turn a mild-mannered sewage worker into a complete nincompoop?” Solaris was released in the USSR in 1972. It was directed by Andrei Tarkovsky and filmed in cinemascope. The film has English dubbing. It is constructed about the private life of Kelvin, an astronaut psychologist sent to investigate strange happenings on the space-station circling Solaris, a mystery planet with a viscous, flowing surface, and an atmosphere of livid, unsettled colours. The Solaris miracle is a process whereby the planet fathoms fears and memories buried in the minds of its observers, and externalizes these into living reconstructions. The film has been termed a prophetic vision, where the space fantasy becomes a moral allegory. Tickets for the film are available from the UW Arts Centre Box Office, Humanities Theatre., or at the door. Film fee is $2.50 (Stu/sen. $2.00) plus a one-night membership of 5Oc. Or you can save up to 25% by subscribing to the Winter miniseries of five film evenings including membership for $10, stu/sen. $7.50.

Ballets Jazz &mes to Hum

Les Ballets Jazz de Montreal will perform again at UW on January 14 at 800 p.m. in the Humanities Theatre. Now beginning their tenth year, the 12 member company has been together longer than any other modern dance company in the world today. Over the decade, they have earned an enviable reputation, most noted for their creativity, energy, aggressiveness and daring. Les Ballets Jazz has met with critical acclaim in Italy, France, Switzerland, Ireland, Mexico, Venezuela, the Carribean, the United States, and at home. Directed by Genevieve Salbaing, the company has had a number of ballets choreographed especially for it by such well known artists as Brian Macdonald, Lynne Taylor-Corbett, Norbert Vesak, Herb Wilson, Buzz Miller and Rae1 Lamb. As well, the company has obtained permission to perform other works, such as the recently acquired Escargot by Louis Falco and the exclusive rights to a number of the works in Lee Theodore’s American Dance Machine repertoire. Following last year’s performance at the Humanities Theatre, local headlines read, “Les Ballets Jazz leaves K-W stage in flames.” Les Ballets Jazz de Montreal is one of Canada’s most exciting dance companies and has consistently dared to be different. Tickets are $9.50 (Stu/sen. $8.00) and are available from the UW Arts Centre Box Office, Humanities Building.

turning to caricature or parody. He must have imagination, -and understanding of human nature, and a sense of both comedy and tragedy. He must be able to use surprise, anticipation, and pathos tempered with timing to make his slapstick work. Unfortunately, the modern clown often neglects the skills that would permit him to make a meaningful humourous statement about his condition in relation to his world. He needs all of these skills and abilities simply to cope with life and make people laugh.” This book will not give you all of that. Like a book on writing, it can only give you advice to make the best of your abilities; it cannot make you a ciown. But it can make you a much better clown. Sanders has the sense to refer you to “People Who Know”. If you really want to juggle, go beyond the chapter on juggling and read The Juggling Book by Carlo. For gymnastics and tumbling, go to the YMCA or somebody like that; Someone Who Knows. Sanders is aware of his limitations, a trait I find endearing. So: If you really want to be a clown ,if it dominates your life, enrol1 in a clown school. New York University, the State University of New York, the Ringling Brothers Clown School, ail teach the art. Some, of course, are better than others. But if you are an amateur, doing it part-time because you want to, pick up How to be a Compleat Clown. It’s worth it. John McMullen

coming Fialkowska will be performing selections from Bach, Chopin, Debussy, and Prokofiev. Fialkowska has just finished a busy 1980-81 season, which included a European tour, as well as engagements with North American orchestras. Highlights of her 1981-82 season include appearances in San Francisco, Houston, Boston, Chicago, Washington, D. C. and Los Angeles, in addition to her annual European tour. At age 30, Fialkowska, a Canadian, is rapidly becoming the standard by which others among the new generation of pianists are being measured. Fialkowska is one of less than a handful of female pianists of her generation with an international career. She was a top prize winner in the First Inter-. national Arthur Rubinstein Master Piano Competition in September 1974 in Israel. Rubinstein, among the judges at the competition, was so impressed with Fialkowska’s masterful playing that he .became her mentor and, subsequently, advisor and friend. Tickets for Fialkowska’s Waterloo performance are available from the U. of W. Arts Centre, WLU faculty of music, or at the door. Student /Senior tickets are $5.00; all others $8.00.

. New Traditionalists Devo WEA Devo is back. Differently. Strangely. There is no longer that common sound which to be everyone appears playing one note through the whole song. The first cut says it all. Entitled Through-Being Cool, it is musically better than any Devo piece to date. There is no more one-noting. The percussion is excellent, and the keyboards are above par.

Exit Tangerine Dream . Polygram Tangerine Dream, that group with one of the wildest electrical sounds in existance, returns with a new album entitled Exit. The album contains six cuts, the first of which is called Kew Mission. If you ask me what a kiew is I will tell you that I don’t know, because I don’t. The piece consists of some very heavy electrical keyboard and a contribution from the percussion in the form of a constant background beat and some interesting drumming. This cut is probably the most electrical on the album. Somehwere in the middle the piece fades into an obscure sounding hum and then returns to once more lay siege to your eardrums. Pilots of the Purple Twilight is the second cut, and it really deserves to be. It is very basic electrical rock and is extremely repetitive. The next piece, Chorozon, starts out with a very heavy percussion-type sound. It has several very interesting and very excellent sound effects throughout. The second side begins with the title track Exit. It startsout very soft and slow and builds up to a good volume and beat. By ‘good’ I mean that if you play it at ten it will break windows within a two kilometer range. The keyboards are great. Basically, all the pieces on this album are repetitive, with

the exception of Network. It is very diversified and complex, and filled with sound effects like little computer noises which surface occasionally to assail your mind. Remote Viewing, the last cut on the album is, very simply, eerie. It fades in with a sound like that of a soundtrack from a computerized horror film. It is weird. The sound quality is good and everything blends well. The sound is very Kraftwerkish, Alan Parsonish, and has a little taint of a Klaatu-like influence to make things interesting. This is an album but for one occasion: sitting in a room which is weirdly decorated and drinking your favorite alcohol. Cliff Goodman

,P .

Jerkin’ Back and Forth is the second cut on the album. It will obviously be a single hit. It is an excellent dance piece with good sound and a great blending of instruments. You’ve probably heard it on the radio. The third cut, Pity You, is very much the old style of Devo. The sound and the’ voice are very reminiscent of the sound on their first two albums. It does have good quality sound, though. Love Without Anger is the seventh cut on the album. (If you wonder where numbers four to six went, I have no comment, they are average songs.) It is on par with their previus hit Whip It. It could possibly be a semi- hit. All in all Devo has improved and if they continue this way, they are going to be great. Cliff Goodman

If you are graduating as-an engineer ‘Ikane I the’Energy Fitness’” company challenges you. We can lick the energy problem by working together. You and Trane and everyone else in Canada who wants to help. We can do it by conditioning ourselves to work, play and live efficiently and by working harder to tap new sources of energy. That’s what we mean by the Energy FitnesP idea at Trane. We’re constantly developing and redesigning heating and air conditioning products and systems for greater efficiency. Our research is paying off but we require sales and marketing engineers to apply our ideas in the buildings and factories across the nation.

The opportunities are many, peak shaving, version and waste heat recovery. opportunities can be met with current technology and state of the art equipment. Other applications are highly experimental and Trane Research is developing new products and ideas for energy fit buildings, homes, businesses and industries of tomorrow with the resources of today.

applications for Trane products are found in the Canadian mining, exploration, transportation and process industry. Anywhere that hearing, cooling and re-cycling of waste heat is found, our sales representatives are ready with the 1atCst computer and equipment technology to provide unique solutions to problems and provide the application equipment to make energy-related systems operate efficiently . Energy

and Industry manuair

Trane goes beyond facturing efficient conditioning equipment. Already, we have shown North America how to save the equivalent of mil-

lions of barrels of oil. We’ve done it with a unique computerized energy analysis of large buildrngs. We call this sophisticated scrutinizing system TRACE (Trane Air Conditioning Economics). TRACE evaluates everything from geographic location and square footage to building height and tenant occupancy schedules.

Fit ideas Now Energy fit ideas for buildings, homes and industry are more than a promise. At Trane they are already a resource. But we need more than ideas. We need qualified engineering people to sell our ideas to people

from coast to coast. If you are interested in putting the promises of tomorrow to work now and share in the energy-efficient future of our country we will be interviewing on campus January 27, 1982 for permanent employment.

Malice: “He writes the book on gktting even,” says the commerical for Absence of Malice, talking about Paul NQWman’s character in the movie. , If so, the ‘book’ is a poorlybound Harlequin paperback whose pages keep falling out - perhaps a blessing to the reader.

Fields’ Malice leaves me with the same feeling that Tess did, in terms of plot structure. In neither case can I offhand think of a scene which could be cut, thus making the movie move faster, and still develop character. On the contrary, in both cases every scene is somehow necessary to pro-

Start with four old men called the Chowder Society who tell monthly ghost stories to each other. Add a naked man falling from a high rise. Stir in some crazies and a beautiful woman who keeps changing her face. Serve it up and you have the makings of Ghost Story. Ghost Story is a great movie. It comes close to being fantastic. About fifty years ago the members of the Chowder Society were involved in a murder. Now, the rotting corpse is back to haunt them. Utilike most horror stories, Ghost Story actually has a plot and characters - it’s not just a mass murder on some lonely spot. But it’s still scary. Be prepared to scream. Having never read the book by Peter Strub that the movie is based one, I can’t compare the two (the book is supposed to be excellent). However, the movie is quite capable of standing on its own and you don’t have to read the book to understand the movie. This is a

definite plus - so many movie adaptations get confusing because they leave out so much. Ghost Story has an excellent cast and the9 are all at their best. John Houseman turned in a good performance as the crusty lawyer. Fred Astaire played the only sensible member of the society and proved that he can do more than dance. Craig Wasson did a good job playing ‘60th sons of one of the society members. Alice Krieg was superb as Eva/Alma - by far the best performance in the show. Ghost Story ran for a full two hours - a rarity in this day and age where most movies are short. Unlike most long movies, however, Ghost Story didn’t drag at all. You weren’t looking at your watch midway through, waiting for it to end. In fact you get so caught up in it that you want it to go on just a little longer.

Old stories still good +arns Birth of Fire Jerry Pournelle Pocket, 1976,198l

Police Your Planet Lester De1 Rey Balantine, 1956,198l

I’ve always had a weakness for books by good really gooclauthors which are not that author’s best work, but instead are earlier works which show an author developing a style, or are books where a writer thinks, “Enough philosophy - do something fun.” Police Your Planet by Lester De1 Rey and Birth of Fire by Jerry Pournelle are two’ such reprints. They are reviewed together here since a) they both take place on Mars, in a “colonial” period; b) they both have a “mercenary” type theme. As well, if one is looking for deep existentialist meaning, you won’t find it here. Neither of these books

as well as edits. This is something of a tragedy, as De1 Rey has contributed much to science fiction writing, even in “juvenile” science fiction that is, books aimed at teenagers. He is equal in expertise to the Heinlein novels in this genre. Police Your Planet is close to this vein, though a bit more intellectual. Quick synopsis: Man

after all) is transported to Mars, which is essentially a prison colony. Mars is a mess. Dirty politicians, grafting police (Gordon becomes one for a while, but he’s too “honest” - after all, he’s the good guy), vicious slums, a girl, gangleaders in control of more than the corrupt government. . . not anice place, and getting worse. Gordon helps straighten it out, and becomes a hero. Straightforward and simple. The science, though selfconsistent, is elementary enough not to get in the way of the story. There is very little Message in this book - good vs. evil, the virtues of a pioneer society, honesty is best, honour is important. A minor subplot running through the book is that there is a secret organization of “good guys” that actually got Gordon sent to Mars, rather than liquidated on Earth, hoping that he’d be the catalyst for a Martian Revolution. In the end, Gordon consciously joins this organization and is sent off to cure an even worse situation. Pretty trite. Actually, the whole book is “pretty trite”. But when I bought it I was looking for action and adventure. I found it. I Minor works by major authors are like that. Fitting that description very well is Jerry Pournelle’s Birth of Fire. Of a more recent vintage than the De1 Rey, it differs also in being well into

the mainstream of Pournelle’s efforts Pournelle is no

between

Fal-

kenburg and Garrett Pittson of Fire are obvious. Pittson is probably a literary experiment, as he predates Falkenberg. But they are the same person. Both are from the lower end of the Terran society of the time, both are natural fighters, both areconcerned with personal honour and both have that warped sense of social responsibility that makes a man capable of thinking, “This man is worth saving. That one is taking up useful space.” Pittson, like De1 Rey’s character, has the choice of going to prison or going to Mars as a colonist. He naturally chooses Mars, a planet still in it’s colonial stage. Pittson is picked out at once by a recruiter from a secret Martian revolutionary committee as a likely candidate for aiding the forthcoming rebellion. Pittson is drawn into the intrigue and eventually assumes a major role in helping the good guys of Mars triumph over the evil

Warriors

nipped

In. a disappointing opener, the basketball Warriors met defeat at the hands of the Laurier Golden Hawks. With a final score of 83 - 80, the Hawks completely outplayed the Warriors, making tremendous perimeter shots that sealed the game for them. , Judging by Naismith performances the Warriors should have had an easy advantage. They’re a much faster team than Laurier and their offense usually manages to outscore opponents substantially. This time, however, the tables were turned. The Hawks managed to keep a slight lead in the early first half although Waterloo’s man to man defense managed to hold the Hawks back. Late in, that half a number of crucial turnovers, all to the Hawks’ advantage, built Laurier an eleven point lead. Inside play also hurt Waterloo as the Warriors were dominated badly on the defensive boards. Waterloo dropped the first bucket in the second half when Rich Kurtz slipped in for a neat inside basket. Three consecutive Warrior baskets made the Warrior outlook less dismal. But they quickly fell into a sad state of allowing turnovers and losing rebounds and making poor shots that Laurier forced them into. With all due respect to the Hawks their calibre of play was the best that it has been in years. Bob Fitzgerald, perrenial Hawk hero, led the team to its lead in the first half and

It was tied at 75, but the Warriors choked in the end, missing crucial foul shots. A Warrior foul and a Laurier technical sent both teams to the line but only the Hawks benefited. Continuing turnovers 1e.tthe Hawks finish off Waterloo. The early basketball season is both hectic and very competitive for the Warriors. They play seven games in eleven days including the Acadia tournament where they will come up against number two ranked St. Mary’s and number three ranked St. Francis Xavieras well as their Acadia hosts. Hopefully, the opening night defeat was only a case of first game jitters. In any case, meeting the league leaders on the east coast should put the Warriors in fine form for their upcoming home games against Guelph and Windsor. Virginia Butler

The basketball Warriors open their home season with two exciting games on January 16 and 17. The Warriors’ opponents on those two dates would appear to be theclass of the Western Division of the OUAA at this point in the season. -The Warriors will host the University of Guelph Gryphons on January 16 and the University of Windsor Lancers on January 17 in an unusual Sunday game. Both games will start at 8:00 p.m. The Athenas basketball team hosted a minitournament on the first’three days of this month. In a round-robin tournament, the Athenas lost to Western 6044, Alberta 78-55 and Toronto 73-49. “It was encouraging in that our team played forty minutes of basketball in each of our last two games,” said the Athenas’ coach Sally Kempt. “Before Christmas, we had a hard time putting together 40 minutes of sustained effort. When you consider that we played with only eight players, 1 thought that we showed good progress.” The Athenas renew their OWIAA seasons when they meet Guelph this Saturday in Guelph. A week from today, the Athenas will host Brock University. “1 would say that Guelph and Brock are the two toughest teams that we’ll meet in this half of our schedule. The Christmas tournament was good preparation for those games,” said Coach Kemp.

Lana Marjama finished second in the 3000 m. in 10:07.2, only one tenth of a second behind Western’s Sue French; her time was only 2.5 seconds off of the CIAU qualifying standard. In the afternoon section of the meet, rookie Elaine Veenstra won the high jump at 1.65 m., just missing an attempt at the CIAU standard of 1.68 m. Betty Ann Schnurr, running for K-W Track Club, ran a solid 2: 18.4 off a slow start to finish second in the 800 m. This meet, held thedayafter i\Jew Year’s certainly needed some aspect of Auld Lang Syne. This was provided by the 500 m. victory of Tom Boone, ex-Warrior extraordinaire, now a graduate student df the University of Texas. The indoor season gets underway a little more vigorously this weekend at an OTFA ail comers meet on Sunday. The first university -invitational j1 ‘.meet will take place at York , University on January 23. Alan Adamson

Classic

Basketball The U W basketball Warriors were in action at the Wesmen Classic in Winnipeg over the holidays. In the words of Warrior Head Coach Don McCrae, “It was a nonproductive tournament as far was we were concerned. At some times we played better than we had at other times this year. But at other times, we played worse than we had played this year. It was just very inconsistent basketball on our part.” In the opening game of the‘ tournament, the Warriors lost to the University of Lethbridge 76-75. In that game the Warriors trailed by 23-4 at one point and by 45-22 at other point. “Neither team played very well in that game,” said McCrae. “We weren’t playing very well and Lethbridge got

They will play Acadia, St. Mary’s and St. Francis Xavier. other teams competing in the tournament will be Concordia University and the University of Guelph. The champion will be determined by a complicated point system. Coach McCrae likes the tournament as it provides the Warriors with the opportunity to play three strong teams; teams from the strong AUAA and teams which they would ordinarily not have an opportunity to play except in the Naismith or the C.I.A.U. Championship.
