NewsBabies Infant deaths from malnutrition due to bottlefeedingare said to be, conservatively, about ten million per year: This was one of the state-: ments made by a health professional in the film, The Formula Factor. Presented Tuesday as part of Women’s Studies’ Brown Bag film series, the film was a hardhitting’ and often gruesome examiniation of the irresponsibility behind the marketing of infant formula to mothers in the Third World. The formulas are promoted in developing countries by corporations multinational such as Nestle and American Home Products as status symbols-of progress and western technology. They are aimed at mothers who have neither the education to read the preparation instructions, nor the sanitary conditions for nor the safe preparation, income to buy enough formula for healthy use. In fact, in some

Friday,

die* while, countries, the purchase of the formula makes up as much as one-half of a family’s income. Because some mothers are not able to prepare the formula properly, their children are suffering from malnutrition; this weakens the child’s resistance to infection, leading to further malnutrition, and . the cycle continues. In Jamaica, the government health services have taken steps to prevent the aggressive promotion of the formulas to nursing mothers by companypaid nurses. The nurses’ common practice is to gather a list of nursing mothers from the hospital, and to hand out free formula samples to these women. Consequently, “milk nurses” have been banned from the maternity wards of Jamaican public hospitals. And, although post-natal clinics have been established to educate Jamaican mothers on the merits of breast-

profits feeding, transportation problems, lack of available time and other setbacks make it impossible to reach more than a fraction of mothers. When contacted by the filmmakers, infant formula company officials refused to appear. Instead, they sent letters which said that nursing white women shouldn’t be the only ones allowed to “keep their figures attractive”. The defense of their hiring of registered nurses to push the products was that these women were hired on salary basis, not on commission. To effectively combat the problem; the film suggested that public pressure groups in the West need to work closely with Third World health organizations. Four objectives of this collaboration could be that: 1. education on breast feeding

OFS to stay at Wieetern LONDON (CUP) - Students at the University of Western Ontario have voted to continue their membership in the Ontario federation of Students. They were asked in a campus referendum February 18 if they wanted to continue membership in OFS at the increased fee of $3.00 per student. In the highest voting turnout ever recorded at U WO, 52 per cent of the voters supported continuing membership in the provincial organi-

d zation. A total of 6,373 students cast ballots, representing about 33 - 34 percent of the0 eligible voting students, said outgoing student council president Peter Luchak. Votes in favour of OFS membership totalled 3,362 and 2,667 opposed the idea. Luchak said the referendum was called two weeks before the vote, after the current council concluded that students should decide on continued membership in the federation.

‘Differential . fee doubles TORONTO (CUP) - There was a special surprise in store for international ’ ! students when the Ontario education ministry announced its annual funding levels for the ,province’s universities February 18. -Differential fees, charged to international students studyingat Ontario institutions, will roughly double in the 1982-83 academic year. The ministry’s funding announcements said international students beginnfng school ,in the province next year will be expected to pay anywhere from $2,700 to $4,400, depending on which program they take. For most, the new fees will represent increases between $930 and $2,600. The news was little better for Canadian students. The ministry will increase operating e grants for Ontario’s universities by 12.2 per cent, although the Ontario Council on University Affairs had

recommended that a 14.4 per cent funding increase be 1 granted. University tuition in the province has been given the green light for a 12.2 per cent climb’ next fall, and universities may keep the discretion they were given last year to add further tuition increases that could run to an additional 10 per cent. “That will leave an actual operating shortfall of $27 million,” said Mark Rosenfeld, researcher for the Ontario Federation of Students. “They say Ontario student assistance will cover it. They know damn well that’s not certain because the exact fees are yet (to be) determined.” Rosenfeld said the Ontario government’s philosophy on international students seems to have its wires crossed. “If they’re saying they want to promote third- world devellopement through Ontario training, they’re definitely sending the wrong signals out.”

“We had completed our calendar year. Past convention had it that the new council was committed to OFS,” said Luchak. Since the outgoing council had voted to reject the OFS Statement of Principles, he said, they felt a campus referendum should decide the issue of membership. The statement of principles goes beyond the objectives council sees for the student movement, according to Luchak. “Some of the statements are very broad, ranging from reforming the Canadian economy to creating free tuition. That has broad implications.” Luchak said a “No” committee was operating during the campaign, focusing mainly on council dissatisfaction with OFS objectives and calling into question the financial practices of the organization. Based in Toronto, OFS employs fieldworking staff andja researcher, who co-ordinate information on post-secondary education issues. “We think it’s interesting that they havesproblems with the statement of principles,” said ,Barb Taylor, OFS chairperson, “since in 1979, when the statement was adopted, it was Western that seconded the motion.” Sh,e said No committee activists at U WO had said issues like housing and unemployment “don’t concern students”, and they complained. OFS spent too much time on international issues. ’ “Thi? support will mean a lot to us in Windsor,” said Taylor. The student council at the University of Windsor is considering a move to hold a referendum on OFS membership. The council recently voted against an executive recommendation, calling for the formation of a provincial organization that would serve as an alternative to OFS.

In an interview after the meeting Federation of Students president. W’im Simonis said that the committee had decided to set up a series of open forums to meet withdifferent groups that use the Campus Centre.

ozen - new equipment

that funding for equipment purchases will be frozen at the current eight million dollar level next year. With an inflation rate currently at 12.5 per cent, this means colleges will have to further eat into their operating budgets, which are separately funded, if they are to fulfil1 their mandate to train skilled personnel for the province’s workforce. “Given the province’s thrust towards developing skills training,, the funding is inadequate,” said Tony Whitworth, vice president of Mohawk College. “It really is a very limited amount when you consider that there are 22 colleges and over 200,000 students,” said H. H. Shore, treasurer of Sheridan College. “Inflation is the worst thing because it means that the dollar we set aside won’t buy what we intended to buy.” Shore said that colleges across the province are experiencing the same situation. Mark Rosenfeld, a researcher with the Ontario Federation of Students, said colleges have been forced to work with obsolete and broken-down equipment.

The grant is provided by the provincial Board of Industrial Leadership and Development (BILD) as part of the government’s five-year economic development strategy. Colleges must apply for a portion of the grant, which is given out on the basis of each campus need. Last year-Mohawk college

received half a million dollars, which-Whitworth said did not keep pace with their need for equipment. All agreed that any funding was appreciated, but Whitworth sai’d “It’s not going to give us as much equipment next year as this year.”

The Concerned Citizen’s Advisory Committee feels that Planned Parenthood Waterloo Region (PPW R) should not receive public funding because they give abortion referrals. Albert Ruetz, chairman of the committee, said that he is opposed to Planned Parenthood’s abortion referral “as that which leads to violence and as such is unacceptable.” The Committee has circulated a petition which has gathered over 7,000 signatures. The wording of one of the petitions 1 they all differed slightly - went as follows: “We, the undersigned, are concerned about theprotection of human life and are opposed to the use of public moneys by agencies such as Planned Parenthood because of their abortion referral activities.” The committee was formed about two years ago, specifically for the purpose of stopping Planned Parenthood’s provincial funding. Ruetz said that the committee comes to life about this time every year, to make their protestations known to the Regional Council. The. group is . opposed to the public funding of PPWR, said Ruetz, because it makes the possible participation in abortion mandatory. According to him, such forced participation is undemocratic. PPWR operates on private donations and a yearly grant which they receive from the Ontario Ministry of Heaith. The application for this ,grant is’ done as part of the Regional Health Unit’s budget and as such must be approved by Regional Council. Kathy Douglas, Counselling Co-ordinator at PPWR said that this year’s grant isvital to thecontinuedexistence of Planned Parenthood. She also said that PPWR is the only counselling agency in Kitchener-Waterloo that is pro-choice. She added that if Planned Parenthood goes under, the implications are severe for any woman who finds herself pregnant with an unwanted child. If she goes to her own doctor, she has something like a fifty-fifty chance that her doctor will be anti-abortion, Douglas added. If so, he would probably do his best todissuade the . woman from having an abortion, she said. Planned Parenthood’s plight is especially disturbing, said Douglas, considering the current mood on the abortion issue in the United States. States that allow abortions are considering making them illegal. If this happens, Douglas said, the option of going to the States to get an abortion will be closed. Planned Parenthood’s motto is “Every child is a wanted child”. To achieve this aim, they engage in both birth control and pregnancy counselling. Part of pregnancy counselling does involve discussing the possibility of having an abortion and a referral to a doctor if the woman so wishes. Douglas said that not discussing abortion would be limiting the client’s ability to make an informed choice about her situation. Julie George

Coziunent Education is under attack. It has been strangled and suffocated by government policy. Since 1973, the annual government education grant has fallen below the inflation rate, while tuition has increased at a rate above the rate of inflation. This has resulted in a watered down product (higher teacher-pupil ratio, fewer new periodicals and books, old and faulty equipment, etc.) at quite an inflated price. This followed years of healthy government funding and a basically frozen tuition. And the future looks even bleaker. The honourable Minister of Education has slashed education funding across the board, Quebec may double tuition next year, and Ronald Reagan is rattling his spurs south of the border and drastically cutting the funding of education. No doubt, the economy is undir very hard times and government simply does not have the ’ money to’ spend on education. And certainly, a tuition increase that amounts to five casesof beer hardly seems tough to handle. However, we (students) must view this situation from a historical perspective -and realize . the trend education is taking in society and contemplate what will be fifteen to twenty years when we think of sending our children to university. The government’s basic assumption is that intelligence is in some way proportional to wealth’. A university education is the key to * social mobility in a democratic society. And, in turn, in a democratic society, post secondary education must be accessible to all with the intelligence and motivation to succeed. However, our student leaders have elected to ignore this serious dilemma and, hope it will go away. They tell us they will defend our interest and yet show total contempt for us by ignoring this issue. Student government is heinously irresponsible to ignore this issue. Instead ,of raising student awareness of these issues and’ attempting to create some concrete unified student action, they talk of working with the OFS and using tried and failed techniques for lobbying politicians. It’s such a nice idea, but I can hardly picture the amusing sceneof the OFS lobby up against theeauto-industry lobby or the mining lobby or any other established business lobby. Our student representatives walk around masquerading as leaders. Their idea of action is an Election Action Committee armed with $1500 to sway the massesof Ontario to defeat theTory monster in some naive hope that the Liberals will find a pot o.f gold and give it to us. Or saying in unison s\ucha politically ignorant comment that a tuition increase at the rate of inflation is acceptable. I am very sure these people are not as ignorant as they like to pretend. These people see the position of Fed president as nothing more than something to put on their

resume and furtherL their career aspirations. They strive for a term of pseudo-activity signifying nothing. They have no desire to protect our interests but simply to further their own interests. Certainly, it takes a courageous, uncompromising individual with firm convictions to lead an action confronting the administrations. The predecessor to our present leader, had a stern lesson in the political reality of his position and felt compelled to cancel the fee hike strike of 1980. I find it amusing that at any university where some concrete student action is developing, this action stems from some organization outside of the student government. The student govern-

Open letter from The recent events in the Campus Centre have piqued the interest of many students who were previously not aware of how it was run. As a member of the suspended Campus Centre Board (CCB), many plople are telling me that the reason they were given for the Board’s suspension is that the CCB never accomplished anything. This is a false and, I feel, an extremely unfair accusation. It is important to understand what the function of the CCB is in order to accurately judge its merits. Th’e CCB-is responsible for the management and policymaking decisions of the Campus Centre. For example, the CCB makes decisions about booking procedures, sponsoring events through the Turnkeys (Cinema G-ratis, Crafts Fairs, etc.), allocating rooms for the many services that are housed in the Campus Centre, and dealing with problems that arise through staff members. The CCB is not responsible for the Bombshelter, the Federation offices, the cafeteria or the basement. On the management side of the CCB many major decisions have been made this year. Of these, the principle concern was the future of the Games Room. The Games Room underwent a remarkable expansion under the direction of the past Games Room Manager, April Branch. By increasing the nuFnber and quality of the machines, and introducing various tournaments and events, under her management the Games Room profits quadrupled. The Games Room has become the prin: cipal subsidiser of the Campus Centre since the budget cuts of recent years and is responsible far keeping the building open all day and night, every day of the year. All of the money from the Games Room

ex-CCB member is used by the ‘Campus Centre exclusively. Naturally, with the expansion of the Games Room*came increased responsibilities for the manager. April Branch was working ’ full-time hours while receiving only part-time benefits. In fairness to the position, after a careful investigation into the matter, a committee of thy CCB recommended that the position be classified full-time (as was done with the Operations Coordinator’s position several years ago). The committee also recommended that the manager report directly to the CCB, rather than an intermediary, and that the Games Room’ staff have a representative on the Board (as do Turnkeysand all faculties on. campus). The CCB voted to adopt these proposals. Without ever attending a meeting, the new president of the university, Dr. .Dquglas Wright, put this decision on hold last November. The chairperson of the CCB, Judi Carter, supported the president’s decision. April Branch resigned in September 198 1. In appreciation for what she had ‘achieved the CCB voted unanimously to spend approximately $150 on a gift, using the amount spent on the past Operations Co-ordinator’s going-away party and the previous Games Room Manager’s departing gift as a guide. This money was to come from the chairperson’s Discretionary Fund. Both Dr. Wright and Judi Carter (the CCB chairperson) informed the CCB that this was not allowedunder university policy. After consulting the Policies and Proced;ures manual of the university, this was found not to be true. ‘Gifts for departing employees’ is, in fact, one of the stated uses for departmental discretionary funds. Six months after her resig-

ment attempts to defend the administration and tries to bring these “disturbed students” back to their senses. Education is under a crisis. Students must start thinking and talking about these problems. The students must get rid of the “shams” in student government and find dedicated individuals to create a unified action. As a united goal, directed group, students can be a tremendously powerful force. As individuals scurryingaround to hand in assignments and cram for exams, we are a pathetic, pitiful mass of sheep. But, I know - why worry, we are all going to be filthy rich. Right? Sure. See you in the unemployment line. . Gregory

to the University nation, the president still has not allowed for a present to be bought for April. Another major management decision that the president has put into limbo is what to do with the Games Room profits. Presently, the money is sitting in a university bank account, collecting interest for the university. The Games Room committee recommended that the money be invested in anticipation of economic hardship in the years ahead. If pinball is ever banned again, this money would act as a buffer until a new source of income could be found to subsidize the Campus Centre. When Dr. Wright introduced his new plan for the management of the Campus Centre (virtually eliminating student control of the building) all long range planning+ such as this ground to a halt.: i It is important to note here that the Federation of Students is no more than a tenant of the building; they do not run it. This tenancy relationship between the CCB and the Federation has been, and still is, a harmonious one. If the Federation is successful in convincing Dr. Wright that they should run the building(a plan that, like Dr. Wright’s, failed miserably in the early years of the Campus Centre) then they can transfer the profits from the Games Room to other Federation activities. Under irresponsible Federation leadership (as we have had too often in the past) the Campus, Centre, its activities and its staff could become a low priority on the financial totem pole. The final major management decision was to remove the chairperson of the CCB, Judi Carter, from her position. She was elected chairperson by last year’s Board. This year’s Board was disappointed with her perform-

Janes

community ante, so a motion was submitted by me at the last meeting (February I 1) to remove her. This action was taken after consulting as many of the CCB members as possible before the meeting. The concensus of these members was unanimously supportive of the motion. After this motion was read, Pat Robertson, Director of Academic Services, acting for Dr. Wright, suspended the CCB. The Campus-Centre has been under administration control since that time. The Campus Centre has now been open for fourteen years. In the early years the university administration, with a plan similar to Dr. Wright’s, tried to ru? the building. The students ended that era by physically removing the administrator’s office. The’ Federation, who ran the buildirig next, was equally inept. Finally, our past president, Dr. Burt Matthews, brought into being a plan that has worked relatively well for ten years. There are problems with the CCB, as there are problems with all other elected bodies on campus, but many positive improvements have been suggested that would not include turning over control of the Campus Centre to the Feds (who represent only Fed members) or the university administration (who represents only the university administration). I hope it is nowclearthat the Campus Centre Board has accomplished a great deal this year but has had most of it stymied by the new president. He has suspended a democratically elected board that is representative of students, staff and faculty, for following the Terms of Reference. (the. rules of the CCB) under the Policies and Proceed ures laid out by the Senate of the University. Ian Chamandy

New anti-rape Too often a sexual assault victim has to go home to her apartment alone. Kathline Mascato, an assault victim herself, knows what a terrifyingexperienceanemptyapartment can be.

Planning students to present housing ’ conference On Saturday, March 13th, the Urban and Regional Planning students of the University of Waterloo will present a conference entitled “Housing in the 80’s: Problems and Prospects”. The purpose of the conference is to provide a forum for discussion and debate among students, professionals and the public on the role of planning in housing. The conference will begin at 9:00 a.m. with an introductory address and a panel discussion on the affordability of housing, followed by a panel discussion on innovation in design. The conference keynote address will be delivered by Mr. W. Wronski, Executive Vice-President of the Urban Development Institute. Mr. Wronski’s previous experiences as Deputy Minister of Housing (Ontario), and Commissioner of Planning for the City of Toronto in combination with his current position enable him to discuss the role of planning and the planner in housing. Two panel discussions will follow dealing with the theme areas of determnnng special needs in housing and government intervention. The conference is open to all members of the community and registration fees are $5.00 ($2.50 for students). Registration will take place the day of the conference in the Arts Lecture Hall, University of Waterloo, beginning at 8:30 a.m. For further information contact, School of Urban and Regional Planning.

Mortgage on conse);vation better than one on nukes To the editor: In response to R. G. Franks’ letter of February 12th, I would like to first point out that the replacement cost of electricity is the price, per kilowatt hour, of additional generating capacity for the electricity grid in Ontario. The current replacement cost for nuclear-generated electricity is 8.74~ per kilowatt hour based on projected costs for the Darlington nuclear power station (this includes 5.9~ per kwh for capitalcosts, 1.93~ per kwh for transmission costs, 53~ per kwh for fuel costs and .38c per kwh for operation, maintenance and administration - Energy Probe 198 1). When Darlington comes on line later this decade, our electricity bills will go up, not down. Our electricity bills

Friday, have been kept at a reasonable level so far because cheap hydro-electric power is averaged in with expensive nuclear power. Peak demand for electricity in 198 1 was 17,2 11 megawatts, yet Ontario Hydro currently has a capacity of over 24,000 megawatts and is committed to construction which will add another 8,500 megawatts within ten years. To put this into perspective it should be pointed out that even Hydro’s inflated projections call for a demand of no more than 3 1,000 megawatts in the year 2000. The above projections are based on committing Ontario to a nuclear future, and ignoring further development of renewable resources for the generation of electricity. According to Hydro’s own reports, there’s still 10,000 megawatts of undeveloped hydro power in Ontario. In addition,

February

another 4,650 megawatts of power can be obtained from undeveloped pumped storage (pumped storage is a way of storing surplus power during off peak periods and making use of it when demand is high - something you can’t do with nuclear power). None of this is listed in -Hydra’s committed expansion programme, although a large portion of it is in southern Ontario and merely requires upgrading of existing installations. Ontario could also be using industrial co-generation to generate electricity. The Porter Commission estimated that an additional 2100 megawatts of co-generation could be installed in Ontario by 1990. We would be much better off if we were toemulate West Germany, where almost a third of all electricity is generated through industrial co-generation: However, as I pointed out in my article, conservation is the main alternative to nucleargenerated electricity. Canada uses three times as much energy per person as Japan and twice as much as West Germany. If we were to take half the money that is slated for Darlington we could properly insulate every home in the provmce, save more energy than Darlington will produce in its lifetime and create 16,000 more person years of employment than Darlington will provide. In conclusion, asan Ontario taxpayer and consumer, I would prefer to have a mortgage based on conservation and renewable resources as opposed to one which is squandered on a nuclear future.

Removing CCB chair would have solved problems To the editor: In reference to your Campus Centre Board (CCB) article (Feb. 19), I was disappointed to read that you had described my impeachment motion as an attack on Judi Carter. Most of the CCB had decided, after months of difficulties and discussions, that it was time to remove Carteras Chairperson. The proper procedure for this action is to make a motion and state the

reasons. After the motion is made and seconded, there is a discussion period in which the merits of the reasons are debated. Once this discussion period is over, a vote is taken and the results acted upon. This is the democratic process that is followed for all motions. I would like to now explain how this process was interrupted by the President (Dr. Wright) through his representative Pat Robertson, and what the ramifications of this decision are. At the beginning of the meeting I requested, and was granted, a change of order of the agenda. I stated the reasons why Carter should be removed and presented a motion. This motion was followed by a statement offering to withdraw the motion if Carter resigned. As in the past she refused todo so. Some of the reasons for impeachment had already been admitted to by Carter in past meetings (see CCB minutes). A discussion format was agreed upon and as we were about to begin, Robertsonsuspended the CCB. He feared I was making libellous statements (libel; n. & v.t.; 1. accuse falsely and maliciously, 2. false and defamatory statement). By interrupting when he did, before the discussion period, Robertson denied me my right to substantiate my statements. This makes my statements look like an attack (libellous?) rather than a fair and integral part of a motion. Would it be fair to Carter to ask for her removal without giving any reasons? Carter, too, was denied the opportunity to speak to the issues. She does not seem too concerned with this and I suppose I would not either if I had the unconditional support of Dr. Wright. What Dr. Wright has achieved is to avoid a vote that would have removed Carter. If the vote had been allowed, Carter would not be the Chairperson now and Dr. Wright’s arguments against the CCB would hold no water. For this reason, I believe, the CCB was suspended when it was.

News Peter Newman criticizes the ‘vulgar, rich’ Leaving the undoubtedly capable staff of Macleans Magazine to deal with the jeopardies of journalism alone, the editor, Peter Newman, came to Kitchener to address first the local chapter of the Confederation Club, and later the public at Wilfrid Laurier University. The lecture was sponsored by _ the WLU Bookstore as part of the “Meet the Authors” series. Newman was introduced with the following credentials: an M.A. in Economics., editor of Macleans Magazine since 1971, author of seven books, and the attainment of various literary awards. The author then launched into his topic: The Canadian Establishment Revisited. Interestingly enough, the United States hasanestablishment in each major state, such as New York, Texas and California, while Canada has only one such organization. This establishment consists of a’ narrow concentration of large companies and the men who run them. The latter have beendubbed “The Aquisitors” by Newman and are featured in the author’s latest book. In his lecture, Newman informed the audience that the Acquisitors are people that we have never heard of. He then recounted sketchy biogra-

phies of various members of the Establishment and spiced each story with a .humorous anecdote. One Aquisitor, for instance, owns a large swimming pool with a sturdy Tarzan vine and an elaborate lavatory complete with stereo accommodation, in the middle. Another a renowned playboy, when asked for his opinion on monogamy, replied that it was good wood, but not forconstructing an entire house. Newman summarized this segment by stating that the Aquisitors are “vulgar, crude and rich”. Yet he did not want to put them down because he feels that Canada needs people to take risks with big money. Newman declared that some of the men in his book may be bankrupt already, or will be in a few years. These dangers are an accepted part of, their passion for making money. Newman compared this dedication to that of a musician to making music. Elaborating on this dedication, Newman lamented the fact that the Acquisitors are attached to cash, not class. unlike thier United They. States counterparts, have no social conscience and do not make a habit of contributing money to worthy causes. During the question-andanswer period, Newman covered a variety of topics. In

Dullards club gets back at MENSA (RNR/CUP) - Mindless of the world, unite! A British man has started a club for people with low IQ’s Nigel Ffooks says his organization, “Densa”, is the answer to the “pretentious intellectualism on the Mensa society, the organization for people with high measured IQ’s. For years, Ffooks has been seeing magazine ads reading “Bright? Join Mensa,” so he’s countered with ads of his own: “Are you thick, Join Densa.”

The only qualification an applicant needs is to be dumb enough to send Ffooks 15 dollars. And so far, about a hundred people from three continents have done it. Although some - like the man who wrote in three times without giving his return address - are able to prove their. lack of mental agility, Ffooks says there’s no test involved. “We take their idiocy on trust.” All others cash.

the realm of journalism, he agreed with the Kent Commission that newspaper chains are not good. They eliminate competition between newspapers and have almost annihilated independent journals in Canada. It was competition between two United States newspapers vying for Washington D.C. readers that led to the thorough investigation exposing the Watergate scandal. This, according to Newman, could never have happened in Canada. One part of the Kent Commission with which Newman does not agree, is the location of govenmentappointed watchdogs in newsrooms. When asked whether the Western Independence Movement had any business backing, Newman responded that the movement was supported by large oil men. Smiling, he quickly corrected himself by saying that the backing came from men who owned large oil companies. Yet he declared that the crusade is mainly an expression of frustration and not a future threat. b Foreign ownership was also mentioned, with Newman asserting that in these rough times it is bad because the foreign parent companies look after themselves first. Nationalization is forseen by Newman as the great issue of the 1980’s. The Establishment, fearing that trend toward forming crown coporations will continue, is growing wary of Trudeau. When entreated to tell the audience more about himself, Newman combined hisanswer with a description of his writing. He stated that he rises at 4:00 a.m. to supervise the eighty people that work on Macleans Magazine. This early rising, he admitted, is the most difficult part of his day. When his finishes at Macleans at 4:00 p.m., he goes home and works on his books. One book, at the pace that Newman works, takes him years to complete. He does not, after all, have any researchers working for him. The men in his books will speak to him only. They dislike publicity and consequently getting interviews with them is not easy. How does Newman convince people to talk to him? Laughingly he admitted on Thursday, “I don’t know. I wouldn’t talk to me either.” The trick is apparently determination, perserverance and a touch of cunning. Newman conducts his interviews during lunch hours, in

the evenings and on weekends. Between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. he assembles the information. His tool is a manual typewriter and his inspiration is loud jazz music. He concedes that his work must be carefully checked because he “can’t spell worth a darn.” His books, Newman concluded, are snapshots of Canadian society and how power is exercised at the time. they are not meant to be a history or a judgment. they are merely a presentation of facts. At the end of Newman’s lecture, the author was wildly applauded. Every seat in the tiny Paul Martin Centre at WLU was filled. People were even propping themselves against the walls to hear Newman speak. They were not disappointed. Newman’s commentary on the Canadian Establishment was fascinating and the delicately balanced humour and sincerity held the audience captivated. Until last Thursday 1 had read only Peter Newman’s editorials in Macleans Maga.zine, and I entered the Paul Martin Centre out of duty. I emerged a Peter Newman fan. Renee Sander

Priorities not right: ’ science before recreation!

What I’m getting at is everything is going to cost more, food, housing, books and the university wants me to help pay for the construction of a recreational facility I’ll probably never get to use. Why can’t they spend the money on keeping the fees down so an education is available to everyone. The university spends a lot of money on team sports such .as football, basketball, and hockey which isfora select few. Why not give some financial support to all students by providing better, cheaper housing. And what about a decent science library for a

To the editor: Well! Well! Well! And who says the fees aren’t going up next year? CBC announced last week that the government of Ontario was expecting a 12% increase and each university could raise their fees accordingly. So students could be faced with a 12-25s increase and with professors wanting salary increases in salaries equal to their status we could be paying another $250 next year.

with a clear understanding of their actions. The question then in 1982 is whether the administration has done students a favor by putting an end to principles that either no longer work or that students are not interested in, or, rather, is the suspension of the C.C.B. the culmination of administration aggression for more technical and financial and bureaucratic efficiency in the Campus Centre. Will our student leaders (or misleaders as one campus group used to label them) look after our interests, you might ask? To my knowledge they have more than taken a blind eye to these occurrences, they have happend with their full consent. If 1 were a speculative sort of person my guess would be that they have been dreaming about having the C.C. under their own insignificant (of which I can attest to first hand) hierarchical power structure. In any event, do students need to be paternally looked after or can they look after themselves? ‘Neil Freeman P. Sci. 4

To the editor: Well, is this the end of an era for the Campus Centre cooperative and democratic student control? Has the C.C. Board simply been put out of its misery by a thoughtful University administration or has this decision making body been forcibly put to rest. 1 have not followed events closely enough to have an answer, but 1 do believe the essence of the C.C. controversy is epitomized by our new University President’s invitation to dismissed Turnkeys to have their case reviewed by the University’s own personnel department (Imprint Feb. 19, ‘82). Why does this epitomize the essence? Because the Campus Centre is (was) managed by a fundamentally different set of principles than the University as a whole. The University is a Corporation with a very rigid hierarchical administrative structure and decision making process. This is precisely the reason why students “liberated” the building in 1968. The purpose was to create, for the only building students could in any way call their _own, a co-operatively, collectively and democratically run student building. They threw out the administrative hierarchical control

Waste lethal for 250,000 .

One of the most insidious legacies of nuclear power is radioactive waste, some of which remains lethal for 250,000 years. To date over 3,500 metric tons of high level wastes have piled up in water-filled pools at Ontario’s nuclear stations. Every operating CANDU (Canadian Deuterium Uranium) reactor is adding to this stockpile of spent fuel on an annual basis to the equivalent of 1,000 Hiroshima sized bombs. Despite more than 30 years of research a safe,permanent disposal method for these wastes has not yet beendemonstrated. In the meantime, Ontario is running out of temporary storage facilities for the waste produced by reactors. The storage bay at Pickering will be full by 1985 and the Bruce nuclear generating station will run out of room for its wastes by 1989. In Canada, Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. (AECL) is taking primary responsibilityfor nuclear waste disposal research. According to AECL, the most promising disposal site is in hard rock formations, called plutons, in the Canadian Shield. Unfortunately, our geological and hydrogeological knowledge of the Canadian shield is still very limited and the Geoscience Council of Canada has warned that it would be dangerous to opt for the hard rock solution without many more years of research. Conflicting scientific evidence has been presented in different parts of the world on the feasibility of proposed waste disposal methods. Reports by the U.S. Interagency Group on Waste Management, the U.S. Geological Survey, the U.S. Office of Science and Technology and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have all concluded that presently planned “permanent” facilities are unworkable. A report by 14 American federal agencies in the Interagency Review Group has also expressed the view that permanent storage “may prove difficult to implement in practice and may involve residual risks for future generations which may be significant.” A major nuclear accident involving wastes has already occured. In March 1958,anatomic wastedumpintheuralsinthe Soviet Union exploded without warning, spreading clouds of radioactivity hundreds of miles. Hundreds of people were killed and thousands were contaminated as a result of the explosion. Towns have disappeared from maps, and the area remains a wasteland. ,

residents if they approved of the research at East Bull Lake. Of those who voted, 88 per cent opposed the research being conducted by AECL. Incredible as it may seem, AECL seems more concerned about the political problems surrounding nuclear waste disposal than about the technical problems. On October 4th, 1976-A. M. Aiken, a vice-president of Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. told the Ottawa branch of the University Women’s Club that “waste disposal is not a technical problem; it is a public relations problem”. Reprocessing has been offered as a partial solution for the waste disposal problem. Plutonium in the spent fuel rods can be extracted and re-used. However, there are only two ways to use plutonium. One is in the manufacture of atomic bombs and the other is as a fuel for breeder reactors. Breeder reactors are more dangerous than other reactors because they can explode (unlike the CANDU reactor) and because they are cooled with liquid sodium (which ignites spontaneously when exposed to air). Breeder reactors are fueled with a mixture of uranium and plutonium and end up producing more plutonium than they consume. Plutonium is one of the most lethal substances known to human beings. One millionth of a gram, if inhaled, can cause death within days. Reprocessing. has been started - and halted - in the United States. It is certainly not an attractive option and will not solve the waste disposal problem, particularly since plutonium is only one of the waste products created by nuclear power plants. CANDU reactors have a life span of about-30 years beforeage and radiation wear them out. At the end of that time period they must be disposed of. The decommissioning of worn out, highly radioactive reactors is an integral part of the waste disposal problem. -Many Canadians feel that it is irresponsible for us to continue with our present nuclear expansion program before the waste disposal problem has been solved. In 1978 the Canadian Medical Association passed a motion demanding a halt “to the further development of uranium mining and reactor construction until a safe, proven permanent disposal technology is developed for the wastes that have already-been generated.” Ontario’s Royal commission on Electrical Power Planning (the Porter Commission) called for a moratorium of further nuclear development if progress towards waste disposal had not been achieved by 1990. Let me conclude with a quote by Dr. Hannes Alfven, Nobel physics laureate: “The fission reactor produces both energy and radioactive waste: we want to use the energy now and leave the radioactive waste for ourchildrenand grandchildren to takecare of.” David Assmann

Peking In Ontario, AECL has also had to deal with political opposition to waste disposal. Because of .opposition from municipalities and resident of northern Ontario, AECL,has now selected two waste disposal research areas located in remote, unorganized townships administered directly by thegovernment of Ontario. In addition, AECL has decided to locate a $13.8 million underground nuclear waste research laboratory in Manitoba. One of the two research areas chosen in northern Ontario is East Bull Lake, located a few miles from the small community of Massey. Last month a referendum was held in Massey asking

twelvegroups of fixedstars. These groups, constellations, are the “signs” oft he zodiac. Four of each of these signs are referred to as cardinal (dominant), fixed (reactionary) ormutable (changeable); three of each are associated with the four elements of fire, earth, air and water, and their characteristics. Aries, thus, is acardinal fire sign; Taurus,thenext,isoffixedearth and so on. You may simply consider yourself an Aries because of your birthdate, such as March thirtieth. But if you have a different ascendant sign, or several planets in another sign, that other sign may be predominant. The positions of the planets configurate at different angles, called aspects, as well. ’ Astrology is hardly as uncomplicated an art as it may appear.

1Tarot Cards byLoriMontague - TheLance The need to know what the future holds in man arises from t-hat part of him that most definitely delegates him as different from all other creatures on Earth. It is that type of self-awareness that allows him to see himself as a being living within a a framework of time; and enables him to anticipate and plan for the future that he knows lies ahead of , him. Because of this very unique trait, and the fact that many of its individual arts are so deeply interwoven into our very cultures, it is . not hard to see why so-called “fortune-telling” remains significantly important to so many people. Today it is an international and multi-million dollar industry; and more people than ever are,doing their own searching, for their own purposes. . Perhaps this is the best quality of ’ several of the techniques of “divination”: they are open to everyone. One does not have to be a swami, a priest, a magician or a wizard. One no longer has to cast runes or examine the intestines’ of sacrificial beasts either, as was popular in some past civilizations. With today’s most in vogue forms, basic dialect, processes and equipment are fairly easily acquired. Assuredly, one of the oldest and most colourful of all divinatory arts is astrology. Every magazine and 8 newspaper mentions it; most daily. Thus, almost everyone has a smattering of knowledge of the art. It is said to have been established in ancient Babylon; it is from that particular country that the earliest records of this method arise, using the twelve basic signs. These “sun signs” - from Aries to Pisces - are familiar to each individual as his or her sign of birth, listed in the daily horoscopes; and each has had certain attributes fastened to it as astrology has progressed through time. An Aries, for example, is generally very impulsive, and extroverted; and most Ariens are aware of this. It says something about how, ’ despite man considering *himself above superstition in our great age of technology, humans will be humans. (CUP)

If an embryo is a person from the moment of conception-afactstillhotlydebated -shouldnot the horoscope be chartedthen?Thiswouldmakean Aries acapricorn, andthese two particular signs supposedly embody very different mentalities. The constellations’positions havemoved since Babylonian times; and traditional astrology is based on the totallyoutmodedideathat theEarth is the centre of the solar system. Astrologers, however, are used to thepresentationof these flaws. They claim that their art is not astronomical, as disagreeing scientists refer to it. To an astrologer, planetary andstellarterms act merely as symbols for human associations. They point out studies that have been done that appear to provethatplanets,andtheMoonin particular, do affect the cycle and behaviour of things. The Moon is secondinimportancetotheSunin astrology; andwiththeother . influences, it can be explained why anAries just may act like a Capricorn. Many astrologers quote, too, the famous words of Isaac Newton. Whenteasedfor‘his interest in astrology, Newton chillingly replied, “I have studied it, sir; you have not.” IfonewishestogobeyondJean Dixon on the comic page - as any astrologer would heartily advise one to do -it is not particularly hard. Professional readings and a host,of books are available to the public. All one really needs is a pencil, paper, some simple geometry tools and several details of,birth: the time, day, month, year, andlocation. If the birthdidnottakeplaceinthetime zone that the books concernedrefer to, an atlas may be necessary. Unless volumes of astrology are detailed - such as Grant Lewi’s “Astrology for the Millions” (Llewellyn Publications) -two other sources are needed to provide data. One is the ephemeris, usually pu’t out annually; the second is a table of houses. Bothcan befoundin scientific bookstores, in some libraries and in several monthly astrological magazines. The former identifies what planet and to what degreeitwasinwhichsign.The houses of the horoscope divide its circle into twelve sections, starting from the point of the ascendant. The ascendant is the sign on the eastern horizon at birth, and astrologers place great importance upon it. The Sun travels yearly alongthe zodiac.Withinitspaththereare

Tarot cards, due to their association with Gypsy lore, are cloakedin amystery of their own. Some believe that they originatedin fourteenthcentury Europe; others, . as far in the past as ancient India or China. Egyptian clay tablets are said to bear similar markings. Many different decks are available today. They contain seventy-eight cards, bearing the same or similar pictures. The meanings of these cards are generally universally upheld, tempered only bythe judgement andintuitive feelings of their reader. Tarot readers often cherish one deck with a special reverence, due to the circumstances of its acquisition. In some Romany circles (what Gypsies preferto becalled), thecardsofthe household are kept in the very highest spot in the home. They must be read with tact; but with truth nevertheless. If one lies aboutthe cards -they are said to lie back to him. Like astrology and palmistry, theTarot’s resurrection has, as of late, become prevalent, as people strive to discover what their lives will hold. The seventy-eight card pack is usually composed of fifty-six regular playing cards: the Lesser Arcana. These are of swords, batons or wands, cups, and coins or pentacles; in modern terms spades, clubs, hearts and diamonds, In additiontothese,eachwithitsown

meaning, there are twenty-two pictorial cards known as the Major, or Greater Arcana; numbered from twenty-onetoorie, withoneunnumbered (the Fool). Today’s ordinary deck of cards is a direct offspring of the tarot deck of the fourteenthcentury.TheMajor Arcana cards were dropped as card playing became more popular; the “Fool” became the Joker, and the “Cavalier” and “Page” cards combinedinto the Jack to make the deck equal fifty-two. Many dealers in the art of “cartomancy”like to introduce an element of enigma to their reading at theonset,toinvolvethesubject. They may ask him to concentrate on what he’s come to seek; and/or ask t him to shuffle and cut the cards. Cuttingisregularly done thrice, withthelefthandandtotheleft (the left being the “magical” side). The reader then seeks a card to represent the subject, called the “significator”, based on their appearance and usually, marital status. For example, adarkmanmaybesignifiedbythe King of Batons, or Wands. The Queenof that suit, if it should turn upinthereading, thereforewill represent the wife or belovedof that V subject. Hearts, ingeneral, are associated with pleasure and relationships; clubs, with work andits virtues; diamonds with money, and spades withpoorluck andviolence. The twenty-two Major Arcana cards, however, “triumph” over all oft he lesser-hence the word“trump”in our language. And these twenty-two are the core of theTarot’s lure and riddle, being most potently and symbolically charged. Which is apt; “arcana” is from the word“arcane”, meaning secret. Thus - a proper reading can only be imparted by one trainedin the art of Tarot.

Ad ‘Hoc Committee to Recommerid a Policy - on ’ Ethical Behaviour The Ad Hoc Committee to Recommend a Policy on Ethical Behaviour was established by President Matthews on February 23, 1981, with the following broad mandate: 1. To develop a policy includin a code of ethics to be a guide to the re &ationships between faculty, stafs and students. 2. To propose existing or new mechanisms that may be necessary or desirable to be used in the investigations of allegations of unethical behaviour by a faulty member, stafl member or student. 3. To submit a report incorporating the above to the President by December I, 1981. (This date was later extended. to February I, 1982.) Following is the text of the report. I have asked that it be circulated widely for

comment by interested faculty and stafs members and students. Responses shquld be made in writing, ‘in the first instance, for receipt in the Secretariat, Needles Hall, Room 3060, by March 31, 1982. The Committee will review responses, and may schedule a special public meeting to hear additional comments’if it feels it is necessary. Members of the Uniersity community are also invited to contact Michael McDonald, Chairman of the Committee (Department of Philosophy, ext. 3594), about any aspects of the report. The final outcome of this process will be the issuance of a policy on ‘ethical behaviour’. Douglas Wright 4 *,‘ President ‘j7.

The realm of ‘ethical behaviour’ was left open to determination by the Committee but it was understood that, broadly speaking, it should concern itself with matters other than those of academic ethics strictly speaking, e.g., plagi’arism, cheating on exams (which were to be covered by the report of the Senate Qmmittee on Academic Regulations and Discipline). To interpret its mandate, the Committee has availed itself of the advice and experience of others within and without the University.

I. STATEMENT OF GENERAL PRINCIPLES i The Committee quickly- decided not to write a general code of ethics for faculty, staff and students. For one thing, such codes tend to be general and unenforceable. They - also tend to annoy those-the vast majority of faculty, staff and students-who conduct their relations with each other in a decent and honourable manner, by suggesting that nearly everyone is at fault, while the minority, who choose either deliberately or in ignorance to act otherwise, are not touched by such generalities. The Committee also recognized that many specific directives on many. likely ethical issues are already embodied in existing University policies, such as the aforementioned Policy on Academic Regulations and Discipline, the Policy on Faculty Appointments, the Committee on Research Involving Human Subjects, the Policy on Private Corporations, etc. Indeed, many matters brought to the Committee’s attention were already covered by such policies, for example, such serious matters as faculty manipulation of students for factional purposes in the context of departmental politics, and the failure of some faculty members to carry out important teaching responsibilities (e. g . , by being inaccessible letters of or failing to write promised reference). There were some matters that came to our attention that we found deplorable and not already covered by University .policies, but that we did not believe should be directly dealt with in this set of recommendations. The Committee was presented with sexist

The Committee has sought and studied relevant policy statements and reports from other universities and academic groups both in Canada and elsewhere. It has also had interviews with representative faculty and staff members and students. All members of the University community were extended a general invitation to aid the Committee in its work. As a result, a large number of suggestions were received about what should or should not be included in a policy on ethical behaviour.

materials from a student newspaper on this campus that it found both tasteless and offensive. We could not in good conscience, however, recommend a policy which would license Clensorship by the University. Nevertheless, faculty members and *administrators can unmistakably indicate to the writers and publishers of such materials both their displeasure and their considered opinion ‘that, such conduct is unworthy of those who aspire to be fellow-professionals. ‘Beyond this lie the remedies of law concerning pornography as well as libel and slander. The Committee was given other examples of boorish behayiour. While such behaviour (e.g., sexist or racist ‘humour’ in lectures and ‘backbiting’ by fellow employees) can be of such intensity or frequency that it would be actionable under this and other University policies, there will probably be many more incidents of such behaviour whidh fall below this threshold. This does not mean, however, that it does not warrant pressure from administrative superiors or peers. Finally, matters were brought to our attention that are beyond University policy as such and require police action, e.g., violence and intimidation between students. The Committee has singled out a number of specific problems that it believes can be usefully dealt with in a policy statement. No doubt the list will prove with time to be incomplete and will require additions. Perhaps, also with time, some matters will become dead-letter articles. (We have not, as such a committee might have done t&n years ago, said anything about student sit-ins or the use of the classroom as a political sdapbox.) Beyond this, we have tried to ennunciate

broad general principles that would have general acceptance at UW but still have some ‘bite’. We have presented three such principles in the first section (I) of the proposed policy. The first states that all segments of the University community-faculty, staff, and students-have jobs to do, and should be allowed to do them without undue interference by other members of the University community. The second is a nondiscrimination clause borrowed from human rights legislation. It can be described as a statement to the effect that the University will make decisions about opportunities, benefits and status on the basis of. the merits of individuals-either academic or employment-and not on the basis of irrelevant features such as race, sex and religion. The third is concerned with the po.ssible abuse of positions of authority-whether the authority be of an academic kind (e.g., teacher-student) or of an employment kind (e.g., department headstaff member). We believe that the first principle should be more or less confined to on-campus situations, while the third principle is to some extent of wider scope and, so to speak, ‘portable’.

II. SPECIFIC IMPLICATIONS While we think these general principles have clear and important applications, we believe. that we must be quite explicit about two of their specific implications. The first concerns sexual harassment. The second involves a more precise statement about an often-related matter, viz. the abuse of supervisory authority. Both require some further comments here.

A. Sexual Harassment Clearly a major, if not the major, reason for the Committee’s creation was to provide a statement* on sexual harassment., In fact many universities have drafted or are in the process of drafting separate policies on this problem alone (including Y&k ( 1980)) McMaster (1981), Concordia (1981), Stanford (1981), and Yale, (1979, 1980)). It is also at this time a matter oi government concern -(cf. An Act to Revise and Extend Protection of Human Rights in Ontario, Bill 7, 198 1, Part I, 6, 2-3). While we have tried to put sexual harassment in the general context of trying. to ensure the wellfunctioning of all segments of the University community, it has been one of our major concerns, too. We cannot say with any precision how widespread the problem of sexual harassment is at the University of Waterloo (in fact the evidence available here and elsewhere is mostly anecdotal and only recently the object of scientific scrutiny); however, much of the testimony has suggested that the problem is lamented at UW, and we believe that the prevention of even one such incident here would warrant a policy statement. Other statements on sexual harassment include those by the Ontario Federation of Students ( 1980), Fanshawe College ( 198 I), Ryerson ( 198 l), and CAUT *( 198 l).. Also see Sexual Harassment: An Employment Issue CUPA Monograph, 198 1; Catherine MacKinnon Sexual Harassment of Working Women, Yale 1980; Constance Backhouse and Leah Cohen The Secret Oppression: Sexual Harassment of Working Women, Macmillan, 1978. Defmition We have tried to select a defhiition of ‘sexual harassment’ that covers the problem but is precise enough to be enforced fairly. (From The Preliminary Report: Towards the Establishment of Sexual Harassment Grievance Procedures at Ryerson, September 198 1, p. 11.) We have centred on ‘unwanted attention of a sexually-oriented nature’. This would include sexual insults or taunts, requests for sexual favours, gestures or actions (such as touching, fondling, up to and including sexual assault). Sexual harassment might involve the abuse of supervisory authority (e.g., threats or offers involving grades or salary) or it might not (e.g., from fellow-students or employees or even from those under one’s supervision). The former violates the Committee’s third general principle concerning the abuse of supervisory authority; the latter violates the first general principle, concerning undue interference in another’s work. First, it is important to note that this definition centres on the recipient’s reaction,

which may, admittedly, vary from person to person. The Committee does not believe that this unduly restricts or inhibits normal social relationships, for it is assumed that mutual consent is morally essential to such yelationships.. Moreover, the definition should centre on the recipient’s reaction for: a. historical reasons having to do with the different socialization of the majority of victims of sexual harassment, and b. the University by its nature as an educational institution will attract individuals of varying backgrounds and levels of maturity. Secondly, the definition, while reasonably specific, must leave the determination of sexual harassment. in particular cases to the appropriate investigatory bodies. Thirdly, the Committee believes that the wording in question covers the matter of sexual harassment as raised in the recent act to amend the Human Rights Code in Ontario. However, it goes further than this Code by requiring all’ those in the University community to refrain from sexual harassment, not just those in authority. The Committee thinks this a reasonable extension of the University’s authority because of the institution’s responsibility for providing a decent academic and work environment for all its members. (In this respect the Committee thinks the University’s responsibility is limited to the campus; however, the .abuse of supervisory authority is of concern even if it occurs off campus.) Fourth, the Committee thinks it important that there be a University response to the problem of sexual harassment. We should not be content with the Human Rights Code here. I (It should be observed that the Human Rights Commission usually asks complainants if they have pursued local remedies. The provision, or lack thereof, of local remedies may well be an object of the Commission’s scrutiny.) The University has sufficient interest in the conduct of its own members to warrant such a prohibition (see page 7, York University report on the ‘nexus’ of university concern). In particular, the UniversiJy should + be extremely careful that those to whom it ’ entrusts authority do not abuse that authority; the abuse of academic authority in the teacher-student relationship runs directly counter to the most basic aims of the University by threatening the trust that is essential to such a relationship and corrupting (in the case of offers or threats) the academic evaluation process. ,

B. Abuses of Supervisory Authority (Other than Sexual Harassment) The Committee was naturally led from “a consideration of the second sort of sexual harassment to a consideration of other possible abuses of supervisory authority. Presumably, if it is wrong to demand sexual, favours for grades or other academic or employment benefits, it is also wrong to demand or require other irrelevant services. It should be patently obvious that academic evaluation should be strictly on the basis of academic merits and that employee evaluation should be on the basis of employee performan&. The introduction of other criteria is tiot only an injustice to the person so evaluated (and, possibly, others who are not so evaluated), but also threatens the integrity of the University’s evaluation processes and so undermines the very foundations on which the University is conswwted. Under this area of poliiy the Committee includes making academic or employment benefits conditional upon unauthorized soliciting or accepting payments (e.g., money for grades) or services of benefit to the recipient. Here, those who occupy supervisgry positions and who, in their private capacities, also employ students or workers under their supervision, must be careful to separate their roles as University supervisors and as private employers so as not to make benefits in the former conditional on performance in the latter. The Committee wishes to go further and point out that this problem may arise even if there is no question of self-interest involved. Sometimes those with supervisory authority solicit money or other forms of support for charitable organizations (both University and non-University), political parties, and other groups and causes. They must take great care not to give even the appearance of making academic/work assessments conditional upon the *donation of money or services to such groups or causes. It is important to remember

,


here that a supervisory relationship can change the nature of a request for support to, say, a charity, from an innocent request by a faculty member when made of a colleague, to a serious threat when made of a student. The Committee would recommend as a model here the University’s practice of maintaining strict confidentiality with regard to contributions to the Federated Appeal, scholarships and other University fund drives. Another matter which concerns the Committee under this heading of ‘the abuse of supervisory authority’ is the academic evaluation or supervision by faculty members in s (including graduate students acting teaching roles) of members of their own families or those with whom they have a family-like relationship (‘lovers’ or ‘covivants’). Su.ch supervision can raise conflicts-of-interest. It may also raise the possibility of sexual harassment, especially with regard to ‘co-vivants’. Moreover, such supervision raises the possibility of ‘favouritism’ or, almost as damaging, the widespread suspicion that such is the case. We think that, at a minimum, such relationships should be I reported by the faculty member to the appropriate supervisor (Chairman or Dean). Where possible, supervision of family members et alii should be avoided, and the appropriate Chairman or Dean should take the appropriate steps to ensure this. Where this is not possible, appropriate steps should be taken to ensure the integrity of the evaluation procedure (e.g., by providing outside evaluation). The ‘Committee does not mean to suggest that ,such supervision of those in close proximity to oneself is necessarily corrupt. The Committee takes an institutional stand here; that is, that the University has good reason to request that a teacher or supervisor avoid even the appearance of a conflict-of-interest.

C . Non-Discrimination In federal and provincial law, and in many collective agreements, there is a nondiscrimination clause pledging ‘equal treatment in the enjoyment of services, goods and facilities, without discrimination because of race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, sex, age, marital status, family or handicap‘ (from the Act to Revise and Extend Protection of Human Rights in Ontario). The Committee thinks it important that the University make a similar declaration so that members of the University are clear that they have a right to treatment by the non-discriminatory University and, in addition, have a right to the internal procedures and remedies that the University can provide. .

D. Confidentiality

of Records

At a number of points in the Committee’s discussions issues concerning the . confidentiality of records and documents at the University have arisen. Concern has been expressed about access to personnel (faculty and staff) files and to various records kept about students. The Committee realizes that various segments of the University have adopted certain working procedures with regard to records. This includes Personnel, Payroll, and the Registrar’s Office. The Committee feels that an effort should be made to make such procedures known to those affected by them. Beyond this, the Committee thinks the University should seriously consider drafting a policy with regard to such records to ensure both the accuracy and fairness of such records and, moreover, to safeguard the confidentiality of such records. In drafting such a policy, the Committee thinks that special attention should be paid to the problems posed by increased . computerization of data within the University. It is important, too, to recognize that records are kept in diverse places for diverse purposes, so that, for example, a student may well have a ‘record’ with Health Services, the Student Village, campus individual faculty members, a Security, department, the Library, and so on. Some general guidelines should be given to these and other record-keepers to ensure (as far as possible) against abuse or error. Specific procedures should be required, where they are not -already available, to implement an adequate policy on University records concerning faculty, staff, and students. An important element in such a policy would_ be general and specific statements about an individual’s access to his or her own records. The general principle to be followed

is that there must be good reasons to restrict access to any parts of his own records. Such reasons should be clearly stated in the policy.

E. - Mechanisms for Enforcement, Implementation of Principles One of the Committee’s foremost concerns was the implementation of the above principles. While we recognize that even the publication of a report of this kind could have a salutary educative effect, we believe that the University has an obligation to enforce as well as promulgate these principles. This raises a question about the appropriate mechanisms for enforcement. Clearly, there are a number of existing University policies and procedures that are relevant here, including the Policy on Faculty Appointments ( 53), the Staff Grievance Procedure ( 36), and Academic Regulations and Discipline (Senate, April, 198 1). These and other University policies and regulations partially define ‘appropriate conduct’ for faculty, staff, and students and provide disciplinary procedures to help ensure that conduct. The Committee recognized that the principles set forth in the policy it recommends could and should be added to the notion of appropriate conduct for faculty, staff, and students. Beyond that the Committee took the view that these and other University policies and regulations, provide the appropriate procedures for disciplining those who violate these principles. Yet, this does not in itself ensure that existing policies and regulations. provide a satisfactory range of remedies for those who have been injured by violation of these fundamental principles. Accordingly, the Committee looked at existing procedures to see if they already provided or could, with minor alteration, be made to provide such a ,range of remedies. The Committee then carefully considered a variety of cases that could arise under this policy. For some of these cases, it was reasonably clear that existing procedures could be made to provide satisfactory remedies for those who had been injured. For example, if a student had been denied an appropriate grade because of racial discrimination it could be anticipated that existing grade appeal mechanisms would provide the appropriate remedies, viz. regrading the work after its re-evaluation by appropriate experts in the field in question. Yet, to continue with a variant of the above example, the Committee was not sure that existing mechanisms were always entirely suitable. Imagine a student who alleges that because of sexual harassment, she (or he) has been unable to complete satisfactorily the work assigned in a given course. There are two basic problems here. First, re-evaluation of the work in question could not address the central complaint, viz. that workperformance was adversely affected. Secondly, and probably more importantly, because the harassment was of a sexual nature, it is unlikely that such a complaint would ever be lodged in the first place. Both reasons point to the need for a special procedure to implement this policy. There is a third reason. It could well be the case that individual members of the University community might be wrongfully denied (according to the principles stated in the first two sections of the proposed policy) benefits, services, opportunities, and facilities for which there are no specific grievance mechanisms. It is all well and good to say that in such cases administrative action is possible, but that we think is not entirely satisfactory for a number of reasons: One of the principal reasons for setting up this Committee was to avoid the necessity of forcing administrators to invent ad hoc procedures on the spot. Administrative procedures by their nature do not meet the standards of procedural justice that regular grievance procedures do. Thus, if the University takes the principles ennunciated in this report seriously, it should be willing to make reasonable efforts to ensure that a victim has a fair opportunity to secure a fair remedy. Given the number and variety of University policies and regulations, there is a real danger that serious injustices could ‘slip through the cracks’. Current policies and regulations are directed at specific segments of the University community , i.e., aimed particularly at faculty or staff or students. This poses two real problems: (a) it doesn’t deal directly with interrelationships of faculty, staff, and students (e.g., would a secretary who believed herself the victim of

harassment by a faculty member seek a remedy under the policy for staff or for faculty?); and (b) if the principles set out in Section I of the policy are as basic to the . existence of the University community as the Committee thinks they are, then it would be wrong to reinforce the perception that many on campus have of University procedures, separate but unequal viz. as providing ‘justice’ that unfairly favours faculty members over staff members and students. For such reasons the Committee thought to recommend special it appropriate procedures to implement this policy. Some aspects of that comments on specific implementation are now in order. 1. Trust and Sensitivity A primary concern of this Committee was to establish a procedure that would enjoy the trust of all segments of the University community. For this reason it was proposed that a cbmmittek be set up to administer this policy. For purposes of this report, we call it the ‘Ethics’ Committee. Both the size and composition of the ‘Ethics’ Committee are important. It cannot be too large or else individuals will worry about confidentiality when seeking advice on specific problems. It also should be approachable by all segments of the University community. For these reasons it is recommended that there be a three-person committee-one student, one staff member, and one faculty member. Needless to say, the success of the ‘Ethics’ Committee depends on the actions of the people appointed to it and how those actions are perceived by other members of the University community. For that reason, we would recommend the appointment of sensible and sensitive individuals who can work well together and enjoy the confidence of all segments of the University community. Because of the complexity of University procedures (mentioned above), it is important that there be someone on the ‘Ethics’ Committee who is familiar with University policies and practices. Concern with the sensitive nature of the issues that this small committee would be handling is manifested in another way within the procedures set forth. In III. B . of the policy, one of the primary roles of the ‘Ethics’ Committee is described, viz. informal advice-giving and disputesettlement. Although the next sections on formal procedure take considerably longer to state, it is reasonable to anticipate that this informal role will occupy most of the ‘Ethics’ Committee’s time and energy;.and, if all goes well, this will be the role in which it should be most efficacious. Indeed, we would expect that the ‘Ethics’ Committee would make every reasonable effort to resolve complaints informally before the hardening of positions which would inevitably follow making the complaint formal. There is no way in a policy‘statement to provide all of the ‘words of wisdom’ such a group will need in this informal mode: All that we can say is to appoint the best people possible and extend to them the utmost cooperation and support. 2. Overlap with Other Policies As should be evident from what was said above, it was recognized that this recommended policy to some extent (in often unforeseeable ways) overlaps a variety -of existing University policies and -procedures. For that reason we decided to give the ‘Ethics’ Committee a kind of ‘yardmaster’ role in handling complaints both informally and formally. Informally, .we hope that the ‘Ethics’ Committee will steer those who seek remedies under this policy to the appropriate mechanisms set out in University policies and, where appropriate, even assist, these individuals in making use of such mechanisms. With formal complaints, there has to be a formal analogue to this, viz. what we talk about in III.C.3. of the Policy as ‘jursidiction’ . Despite its apparent complexity: the point of this section is simple: the ‘Ethics’ Committee has to meet to determine whether the formal hearing procedures set out in this policy are the appropriate ohes for the given formal complaint. The ‘Ethics’ Committee will have to consider a number of factors in determining its ‘jurisdiction’. It will have to consider its own expertise or lack thereof, the purposes of the relevant alternative policies and regulations and the nature of the case, in particular its sensitivity. In emphasizing sensitivity once again, we are not suggesting that existing ‘hearing committees’ are insensitive; rather, we would stress a serious problem ,of perceptionthat not only must such a committee be sensitive to the plight of

the complainant, it must also be perceived all parties to be sensitive.

3. Fairness to All - The last sentence brings up a basic point, viz. that of- fairness not only for the complainant, but also for those (if any) against whom complaints are lodged. (Note: It is not inconceivable that the proposed policy could be violated in such a way that while there is a victim who requires a remedy, there is no specific individual who has culpably violated this policy. The report is not directed to such cases-i.e., where the failure seems ‘institutional’ rather than ‘individual’. Although it should be noted that the proposed policy ‘as a whole can deal adequately with such problems .) In drafting this report and policy statement, fairness to the accused has been a foremost concern. We have tried to ensure such fairness in two ways. First, we have emphasized that the primary aim of the procedures under this policy is remedial and not disciplinary. Second, we have tried to build into this policy such procedural safeguards as we think would meet principles of natural justice and be generally acceptable to the University community at this time. 4. Hearing Committee For this last-mentioned reason of general acceptability, we decided that it was best to offer a variety of alternative models for hearing a complaint (see III.C.4. of the Policy). Our own preference is for the first, viz. having the ‘Ethics’ Committee serve as the formal hearing committee that makes recommendations directly to the President. We think this is most in keeping with the spirit of the policy and has a number of advantages ,- in particular, administrative, simplicity and the ‘growth of experience. Yet, we also recognize that there are other ways of providing a , fair-minded and competent body to make such recommendations to the President. Three alternative models are set out in the Policy. We would point out, though, that while having an all-faculty hearing committee (as mentioned in Model 1) might win m,ore support from faculty members, it might well be perceived by. both staff members and students as being inherently unfair.

III. CONCLUSION The Committee wishes to recommend to the President that this report and the accompanying draft policy be circulated widely for comment by interested faculty and staff members and students, as well as by University administrators and the University . solicitors. The Committee would also recommend that supporting documentation which is in the public realm, including policies of other universities, handbooks, etc. used by this Committee in drafting its report be available to members of the University in the Office of the Secretariat, Needles Hall.

DRAFT UNIVERSITY POLICY I. GENERAL PRINCIPLES The University exists in order to furth,er ‘the pursuit and dissemination of knowledge and understanding through teaching and research‘ (Policy 53, II.C.1). The realization of this intention requires respect for the following general principles: A. That no member of the University community (faculty, staff, students) unduly interfere with the work or working environment of other members of the University (cf. ‘Report of the Senate Committee on Academic Regulations and Discipline‘, April 198 1, 111.8.). This shall be taken to apply to the campus of the University and official off-campus functions of the University, such as course- or programrelated field- trips. B. That services, benefits, opportunities, and facilities provided by the

l


University be offered to those qualified in the University community without discrimination because of race, ancestry, place of origin; colour, ethnic origin, creed, sex, age, marital status, family status, or handicap (cf. Bill 7 ‘An Act to Revise and Extend Protection of Human Rights in Ontario‘, 1981, Part 1.2). C. That those with academic or employment supervisory authority use such authority, both on campus and off, solely for the purposes explicitly stated or implied in University policies and with regard to the overall aims and purposes of the University. Such supervisory authority shall be taken to include both permanent and temporary academic or employment supervision of any faculty or staff member or student, whether such supervision is set out in the University of Waterloo Act or University policies or implied therein, including all delegated supervisory authority. Academic supervisors include faculty members, designated staff members, and students appointed as Teaching Assistants. ’ (Note: In this principle, two kinds of supervision are considered, viz. academic and employment, and three groups of people, viz. faculty, staff, and students.)

II. SPECIFIC PRINCIPLES Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following actions or practices shall be taken as violations of these general principles. The actual determination of any violation of this policy can be made only in the context of a particular case in accord with fair procedures (as set out in Section III). A. Sexual Harassment Sexual harassment is unwanted attention of a sexually-oriented nature which is objectionable to the recipient and has the intent or effect of: 1. Creating an offensive, ‘intimidating or academic hostile employment or environment; 2. Unreasonably interfering with the recipient’s employment or academic performance; or 3. Preventing, impairing, or making conditional the recipient’s academic or employment status, or full and equal enjoyment of employment or educational services, benefits, opportunities, or facilities. B. Abuse of Supervisory Authority Abuse of supervisory authority includes all forms of making conditional or appearing to make conditional academic or employment services, benefits, opportunities, or facilities upon performance unrelated or irrelevant to the academic or employment status of the one supervised. Such abuse can occur even if it does not have the intention or effect of benefitting the supervisor in question. Furthermore, the University strongly with such supervisory advises anyone authority who has or is likely to have under his supervision persons in his immediate family or anyone else with whom he has such a relationship as is likely to create a conflictof-interest situation, either to relinquish the academic or employment supervision of the person in question or to seek the permission of the University to continue in that capacity with appropriate safeguards (e.g., for an academic supervisor to secure a second reader for written work or for an employment supervisor not to be involved in determining conditions of employment or benefits).

III.

IMPLEMENTATION OF POLICY

The primary aim of this Policy is to implement Sections 1, and II above by providing access to appropriate remedies for those injured by violation of the principles stated. In some cases the provision of an appropriate remedy will require the initiation of appropriate disciplinary action (as set out in other University policies and regulations) for the person who has violated the principles just stated. While this Policy is designed especially for the use of those who believe themselves injured (by violation of the *Policy) and who seek redress, it is assumed that those with academic or employment supervisory authority who detect what they believe to be violations of this Policy will act to provide or initiate the appropriate remedial or disciplinary measures as set out in this and other University policies and regulations (including Policies 11, 18, 53, and Academic Regulations and Discipline). A. The ‘Ethics’ Committee 1. Terms of Reference The Committee is to be advisory to the .President, and is: a. To advise the President on the implementation of the principles stated in Sections I and II. b. To deal with specific complaints arising under these principles. c. Charged with making the provisions of this Policy generally known to all segments of the University community and with making recommendations to the President for the revision of this Policy. d. To report formally to the President at least once a year. The President will make available to the Committee, or cause to be made available such facilities and information as is necessary for it to carry out its duties. 2. Membership The Committee shall consist of three members -a faculty member, a staff member, and a StudentLappointed for overlapping two-year terms by the President in consultation with the University community as he sees fit. The President shall also determine who shall chair this Committee. B. Advice and Informal Dispute Settlement Members of the Committee shall be readily available to members of the University community to .offer information and advice on the implementation and interpretation of this Policy. In particular, they shall be available to advise individuals on the application of this Policy to specific situations. When it deems appropriate, the Committee as a whole shall offer its good offices to resolve, informally, complaints arising under this Policy, including, for example, problems that may have arisen due to innocent misunderstanding or misinterpretation. The Committee shall also be prepared to advise individuals about alternative means of resolving complaints through, for example, administrative action or other appeal procedures. It is to be the practice of the Committee to proceed discreetly ‘with due attention to the sensitivity of the matters brought to its notice. C. Initiation of Formal Complaints 1. Formal Complaints Whenever possible, before a formal complaint is received, the Committee shall

make every effort to resolve the matter informally. To initiate formal procedures under this policy, complaints must be submitted to the Chairman of the Committee in writing, stating the alleged violation(s) of . this Policy and setting out the remedy sought. The complaint must be signed and dated. The complaint must contain sufficient detail for the Committee to make a judgment about jurisdiction (see C.3) and, in particular it must, where possible, name the person or persons (if any) alleged to have caused the violation for which the remedy is sought. 2. Notification. Any person or persons named as having caused the violation for which remedy is sought must be promptly (within one week) sent a ‘copy of the complaint with an indication of the date on which the Committee will hear arguments (if any) over jurisdiction. The complainant shall also be informed of this date. (The time-limits set out in this and other sections of this Policy are to be followed, circumstances permitting.) 3. Jurisdiction. Within one week of the receipt of a formal complaint the Committee shall meet to determine whether the matters alleged in the complaint come within the scope of this Policy and, if so, whether other University policies and procedures are relevant. This determination shall be made in consultation with the appropriate existing University bodies. If other policies and procedures are not relevant, then the Committee shall consider the appropriateness of trying to resolve the complaint informally. If informal resolution is, in the Committee’s view, inappropriate or if the complainant * refuses such resolution, the matter shall proceed to formal resolution (see 4. below). If, however, other University policies and procedures are relevant, the Committee shall determine whether the complaint is best addressed by the formal procedures set out below or by the measures set out in other relevant University policies. It shall take into account the purposes of this and other policies as well as the matter of appropriate expertise. It shall also make the appropriate consultations with those directed to implement the other policies in question. The Committee must also carefully consider the nature of the complaint, paying due attention to the sensitivity of the matters alleged. In arriving at its decision on jurisdiction the Committee shall give the complainant and, provided there is such, the person named in the complaint, an opportunity to present . arguments on jurisdiction. Because the Committee is advisory to the President, its decision on jurisdiction may be appealed to the President. 4. Hearing Committee The three-person ‘Ethics’ Committee specified above (III. A.) shall hear the formal complaint. (Note: As stated in the attached report, the drafters of this policy statement were concerned that significant segments of the University community might object to having the ‘Ethics’ Committee hear formal complaints. To focus discussion, the drafters have provided the following three alternative models for creating a committee to hear formal complaints. These are intended as mutually-exclusive alternatives, so that in the final policy statement adopted by the University either the drafters’ proposal or one of these three would form this section of the Policy.)

At the request of the ‘Ethics’ Committee, a special committee shall be called to hear a . specific formal complaint. This committee shall be constituted as follows: Model I -c on the model of the Committee to Investigate Adequacy of Cause (Policy 53), consisting of nine persons, either faculty members only or faculty, staff, and students, of whom three shall hear the complaint. The complainant may exclude three, and the person (s) complained about or the VicePresident may exclude three others. Model 2 -- on the model of grievance arbitration, the complainant names one and the person complained about names another. These two nominees name a third or, failing that, a third is appointed by a designated neutral third party (such as the Chancellor). Model 3 -- on the model of ad hoc committees, the President names three individuals to hear the case.’ 5. Preliminary Meeting and Procedure. In the event that the complaint comes to the Hearing Committee, its chairman, at the mutual convenience of the principal parties concerned (viz. the complainant and anyone named in the complaint as having violated this Policy), but not later than 14 days after jurisdiction is determined (and the Committee constituted, if applicable), shall hold a meeting of the principal parties and the Committee to review the complaint, exchange evidence and supporting documentation, and determine procedures for subsequent meetings. With due attention to confidentiality, such procedures shall follow c principles of natural justice. a. Anyone on the Hearing Committee who is a party or witness to the complaint at hand is disqualified. In the event of such disqualification, the remaining members of the Committee, with the agreement of the President, shall select a third person to complete the Hearing Committee. * b. All the principals to the complaint by may, if they wish: be accompanied another member of the University community to act as an advisor or representative. c. No principal may be denied access. to relevant evidence. The Hearing Committee may choose to allow all the principal parties to be present throughout. d. No principal party may be denied an opportunity to present evidence and argument. An adequate opportunity must also be provided for the rebuttal of contrary evidence and argument. e. The Hearing Committee shall keep an adequate summary record of proceedings. f. The Committee shall determine whatever other procedures are necessary to ensure both fairness and good order. 6. Formal Report to the President. After having conducted a hearing according to the procedures indicated above (5.), the Committee shall prepare a formal report for the President. It shall make a recommendation of the appropriate disposition of the complaint, indicating the nature and relevant circumstances of the complaint, in what respects (if any) the principles set forth in this policy have been violated, and what remedies (if any) it recommends. The Hearing Committee may also recommend that the President initiate disciplinary procedures as set out in University policies and regulations; the Committee’s, report may then be adduced as evidence in 1 such disciplinary procedures. The Committee’s report and summary record , of the proceedings shall also be made available to the principal parties.

lbw Orleans jaaz recreated with,energy Bob Greene is a pianist. He is also a magician. Saturday night, before a large crowd at the UW Humanities Theatre, he and his six accompanying musicians recreated the New Orleans ragtime/jazz, turn-ofthe-century world of Jelly Roll Morton (with whose musicians Greene has both performed and recorded) and it was pure magic. Playing the sweetest music this side of Harlem, Gr,een and company, like seven, wondrous Muses, transported their enraptured audience back to another time, another world; a world of the pungent scent of magnolia trees and the equally pungent smell of lynching victims hanging from those trees, gaslamps in the windows of harlots, horsedrawn wagons on cobblestone streets, and barefoot street-waifs in alleys, learning to play begged, borrowed, or stolen clarinets, cornets, and trombones, the world of Jelly Roll Morton. Despite the different visions that one had, listening to this music - the roots of jazz, bIues, and rock ‘n roll - was always what set the mood and described the scene. There was no need for ornate backdrops or decorations. In fact, .Greene and his fellows were a spartan ensemble indeed. Dressed plainly in

Dancemakers Dancemakers is a troupe that is neither of the calibre of the top dance companies, nor of the small provincial ones. It floats in between and will remain so for some time. Its performance in Humanities Theatre last Thursday, contained exciting choreography. and diminutive, very fine dancing and less than pro. fessional ability varied within the dancers. One style of movement coming easier than another; and amongst dancers. The completed effect was one of waves - crests and troughs of quality. Aureole, choreographed by the highly respected Paul Taylor, begins with two figures downstage left, seated and in silhouette. To the right of and behind these two, stands a sideways ‘T’, covered with filmy material. Lights come up, revealing the ‘T’ as a man holding a woman parallel to the ground. The dancers wear ballet-like, chiffony skirts. The movement is balletic in style, flowing arms and well-carried torsos, but ballet technique is absent. Taylor’s choreography has a constant asymmetry that swirls from one image to another. A dancer presses down on cottony air with soft hands; the air expands and hands float upward, impulses \ open. C. Anderson is most at home with this technique. In the section for four, she winds ‘her torso and arms into knots like a magician’s rope. and suddenly straightens out without any apparent effort. Her energy is free and yet centred. Suspensions on demi-pointe (tiptoe) are ‘on’ consistently,

not by accident but by will and control. The male dancers have difficulty with the technique their shoulders are often strained, turns are jarred, joints are stiff and an overall heaviness drags against the intent of the choreographer. Although the realization of Taylor’s work is only partial, the audience is given a hint as to how well Dancemakers could, one day, perform this. A.K.A., last in the programme, is the flipside of Aureole. The dancers have a strong grasp of the choreography but unlike Taylor’s work, the choreography is old and moldy in conception and weak in execution. Anna Blewchamp’s piece of every conceivable North American social dance form of this century, is accompanied by a hatchet collage of complimentary music. Here, the musak and paltry costumes do not divert from this morass of mediocrity. The sophistication of the work is equal to Big Al’s Talent Showcase. In short, a piece unworthy of this troupe. Quick Studies is a clean contrast. Anderson has produced a work of light quicksilver based on Taylor’s technique; she uses special movement sequences in the right measure two dancers, close, wind into a slow spiral, the legs lift together in striking outgrowth and blend into solo ‘spindowns’. Although awkward lifts are distracting, dynamic changes in individuals and the whole group produce twinkles of life, as does pedestrian movement

moving (such as walking) turneh to graceful stylization. Spirul,~ however, is a stylization of another-sort. This psychological study of the descent into insanity (whatever that means) begins chillingly with a woman standing alone on a shadowy stage. A group of bodies crouches at stage’s edge. A woman’s high operatic voice is heard clearly. Indiscernable whispers intrude upon and undercut this voice. The group rumbles about silently. A strong beginning. But this type of work, created through improvisation, has been done before and better. There are zombies; there is harassment by word and deed of the ‘heroine’ by the group. They pecklike birds to the soundsof seagulls; there are seduction scenes; there is the theme ‘Do you know . . .?’ Although Rimmer sprinkles in relief in the form of dance sequences, she cannot save this overlong, self-indulgent, emotional piece. Ttio Ecstatic Themes, an antique by Doris Humphrey (1931) is performed with care and understated dignity by Z. Wolofsky. Her curving arms leads her head about and flourishes with a weaving back. Wolofsky has done this dance with more clarity and sharper changes of dynamics but as a pearl midst some costume jewellery, it is still a pleasure. Dancemakers is struggling to create an identity.

From the crazy, happy, ‘ragged rhythm that gave testimony to the good-times had on the riverboats churning down the golden Mississippi on Steambdat Stomp to the slow, mournful tones that told of the sorrows of a dirt-poor Black woman in a New Orleans rooming house in Mami’s Blues. Green’s interpretation of Morton’s compositions constantly evoked the ghosts of Buddy Bolden, Ma Rainey, Satchmo, Bessie Smith, Duke Ellingtdn (listen to his album A Drum is a Woman), and Billie Holiday. However, this impression could have arisen from the fact that Greene’s musicians have played in bands that accompanied the aforementioned jazz/blues greats on their recordings and tours.

The cornet player, Ernie Carson made his instrument walk, strut, and parade notes on A Closer Walk With Thee and made it talk, whine, and cry on other songs. “tailgate” tromPlaying bone, Richard Dreiwitz was mellow, moody, seductive, and “hot”, sometimes shouting, sometimes sighing, always eloquent, producing the brassy, sassy notes required for what is essentially outdoor music. Herb Hall, his snow-white afro shimmering angelically, swung. low with his sweet clarinet, making it pray, the notes flying on wood and velvet wings to Heaven. On bass, John Williams, swaying majestically as an elm, gave the group its sound foundation, his .low notes revealing the deepest secrets of the soul. And on acoustic guitar, Wayne Wright played with delicious perfection and fervent conviction that loped along with the bass or drove the whole band. Finally, Bob Greene, the leader, tinkled his piano in harmony or counterpoint with his brother musicians, coaxing from each one-and-himself-the best they had, to offer. Indeed the piano was ubiquitous in its aural presence. It was with expert dexterity that showed their long acquaintance with their repertoire that Greene and friends performed each of their 22 songs’ (including an encore) for the 2.5 hour concert. The audience reacted warmly to the performance. ‘Heads bobbed, toes tapped, fingers snapped in time to the swinging, swaggering melodies. The ensemble had an obvious love for the music; its members soloed, dueted, or played in concert as the various songs demanded. These sultans of jazz played with more energy, commitment, and vitality than most rock bands half their ages. Perhaps it was because these men are the last, living links with the origins of music we : take for granted now. Perhaps ,this knowledge made them play with extra urgency, hearing even louder than their own thoughts and music. Time’s winged chariot hurrying near. Though the entire concert was memorable, the song which touched me most was Cannon Bull Blues. A song composed in the year that saw the advent of the Great Depression, it was a long, slow blues, a funeral waltz, a T.S. Eliot instrumental. Buchanalit. ‘Hearing the heart-breaking, shaking, cracking sounds of the clarinet, cornet, and trombone, bass, and the tracking, sonic beat of the piano, I felt like a motherless child a long, long way from home. I understood pain, poverty, and weariness. When I heard Jelly’s jeremiah wail of a freigh?train crying in the wilderness of night, my soul grew deep like the Mississippi. I became a believer.

Perpetuating Poverty: The Political Economy of Canadian Foreign Aid Robert Carty and Virginia Smith Between The Lines, 1981 One purpose of education is to instil in the student the ability to distinguish between what is pleasurable fantasy and what is harsh reality. Artsdisciplines accomplish this objective-with various shades of success. , However, a course which is particularly instructive in the ways of the real (nine-to-five) world is that curious hybrid “political economy”. A shotgun marriage of political science and economics, it seeks to explain the actions of peoples and governments on the basis that political relations are organized to suit the demands of the economic relations within a society and between governments. Such works,asTrilateralism: The Trilateral Commission and Elite Planning for World Management edited by Holly Sklar and How ’ EuropeUnderdeveloped Africa by Walter Rodney exemplify this type ’ of analytical approach to human affairs. Of course, the problem with using political economy as a glass+ through which to view the world is that you may not like what you see; you may not like having your fantasies shattered. A book that explodes some myths that one might- prefer remain intact is Perpetuating Poverty: The Political Economy of Canadian Foreign Aid by Robert Carty and Virginia Smith. The book is a critical analysis of the philosophies and practices- of Canada’s major foreign aid agency: the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). In their investigation of the boondoggles and mishaps experienced by CIDA (for example, the building of a Don Mills-style housing project in dirt-poor mountainous Lesotho that houses only the “haves”), Cartyand Smith put to death the common fantasy that Canada gives foreign aid to other countries as a purely altruistic and humanitarian measure, that is, as a form of international welfare, which might or might not be better spent at home. The authors argue convincingly that aid is welfare, but not for the countries to which it is given, but for the corporations and financial institutions of the donor. It is a “politically expedient technique of crisis management”, an instrument of foreign policy (hence, Canada’s External Aid Office is under the jurisdiction of the Department of External Affairs): a prop to “friendly” regimes (those amenable to the present world economic system) and a weapon against those which choose independent, usually socialist modes of development. There is, then, a method to the apparent madness of our foreign aid programs to the socalled Third World: to reinforce the domination of their economies by northern nations and interests now that the colonial era process of “political subjugation” is untenable. For as the authors state: The Third World is trapped in the poverty cycle, not because western countries have failed to commit their capital overseas, but because they are continually draining massive amounts of capital from the South. The injustices and inefficiencies associated with Canadian aid programs in the developing world are the result of “tying aid”. Carty and Smith define thispractice“the insistence of aid agencies that the money they grant or lend bilaterally to underdeveloped countries be spent on products and services from the donor country”. The problem inherent in this practice is that recipient nations of aid are

often better off developing their own products and services, using small-scale technology and local materials, or buying them more cheaply from another developing country. Another problem with “tying aid” is that the producks and services offered by the donor nation are often irrelevant or inferior to the needs of the recipient nation. However, the root of the matter is that “tied aid” is aid with “strings attached” so that, finally, the business of Canadian foreign aid is “not so much ‘development’, as the development of (Canadian) business”. Perpetuating Povertyisa well-researched and well-written exploration of a complex subject. It has, like the Ho/y Bible, a macrocosmic view (it discusses matters of global concern) and a microcosmic perspective (it discusses matters of local concern such as the underdevelopment of the Atlantic and Western provinces by Ontario and Quebec). It is, as well, a history book, documenting the origins of modern foreign aid and the present global, capitalist, economic order and its institutions (the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs). Carty and Smith will even state a universal truth now and then: “No government can retain its power without an effective system of sanctions against those who violate its laws”. They can be sarcastic, too, as when they liken “some thinkers’expectations that the Third World developovernight along western nations’ lines to a ‘Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court’ version of development, entertaining as storytelling but more hallucination than history.” Overall, the authors are insistent through not strident in stating their case. A difficulty with smashing illusions and busting myths is that it is often hard to stop. Thus, Carty and Smith, not content to simply debunk the fantasies regarding foreign aid, tear away the veils of falsehoods about the developing world with pithy statements to show that it has been ripped off: ’ The problem is that the northern nations, having climbed the ladder (of development) in stages themselves, took the ladder away by imposing international economic and political systems that perpetuate underdevelopment. In their conclusion, the authors give suggestions as to how foreign aid programs can be made to work. These suggestions stem from their belief that development is “a question of political power”, that it isa process which, when authentic, “seeks to reduce dependency and promote self-reliant economic growth”. It is a process which “democratizes and reorganizes the ownership of the means of production” and which “expands and dynamicizes popular participation in the political life of the country”. It is, in other words, a sensible, caring process of development that Bay Street will hate. I This book is required reading for anyone interested in Third World development, Canadian domestic and international politics and economics, modern global problems, reading an informative and fascinating book, or visiting in the real world of 570 million hungry people. The book is 212 pages in length and incorporates footnotes, 21 charts, and quotations, often eloquent, from. political and business leaders and even an author or two. No price is listed for this book, but it will probably sell for $5 or $10 when it hits the stores. It is an allCanadian production. George Elliott Clarke

Film bizarre, but has lots of fun The pretty coastal village of Monteray, California, is the backdrop for Cannery Row. Based on John Steinbeck’s novels Cannery Row and Sweet Thursday, the story revolves around a reclusive marine biologist named Dot. Played by Nick Nolte, Dot earns his living digging up rot ks in shallow waters searching for sea urchins and other water creatures. Helives his life in a oneroom home which he shares contentedly with his sea-dwelling friends. 4In the far more elaborate house across the street, its architecturG1 style similar to Something from Disney’s Main Street U.S.A., is the town whore house. Fauna, the number one floozy, played by Audra Lindley, heads the establishment and refers to the other members of the household as her “girls”. Other inhabitants of the quaint l little fishing town include Mat and the boys, the local bums who happily make their homes in boiler pipes. Hazel - with the heart of a saint but the mind of a sixyear-old - though not the leader of the gang, is the leader by virtue of his superb acting ability. Hazel, portrayed by Frank McRae, is told by Fauna, who has completed a prediction of his future, that he is destined to become the president of United States, and there isn’t a thing he can do about it. Initially Hazel takes it hard, but he is determined to take his responsibility seriously.

Thus, he spends a great deal of time perched high above the coastline contemplating the necessary preparations. Enter Suzie Desoto (Debra Winger of Urban Cowboy fame). She’s a young girl, stunning yet understated. Simply dressed with a straightforward attitude and nononsense approach, she heads for Cannery Row in the hopes of locating work. The canneries are closed, however, for lack of sardines, and Suzie ends up (where else?) but in Fauna’s friendly den. Within a short time Suzie encounters Dot and is immediately intrigued. Instant mutual animosity is triggered and, as in any godd, dependable production, impending romance is inevitable. The. story is bizarre, defivitely, but it works. With the witty omniscient commentary of the narrator, John Hustin, the picture is a lot of fun. Camera innovation is almost non-existent but the plot is fresh and unique enough to make the movie absorbing. 1 Though perhaps the plot isa little far-fetched, the events serve to create important relationships between characters that are real and believable. These relationships and the emotions involved are emphasized as embodying the life fdrce of the picture, making other minor imperfections inconsequential. A rare event, Cannery Roti is a heart-warming picture without descending to the level of Karina Kraenzle kitsch. 0

Toronto loses m Theatresports play The exciting team of Torontonians, Champagne for Caesar, was narrowly defeated Friday in the first in a continuing series of Toronto-. Waterloo Theatresports grudge matches. John Ferguson, Steve Hull, Most Valuable Player Rob Nickerson Gd Bill O’Hara, ably coached by Julie Salverson, played an entertaining, competitive game which was as fast-paced as the record crowd’s highly vocal response would allow. The triumphant locals were Marg and the Medics, consisting of the seldom-seen Ian! Allen, the disabled Margaret Eaton, the hirsute Bernie Roehl and the not-quiterookie -Chris Stone. The

score, a close 70-66 in favour of the Waterloo team, accurately reflects the even matching of the players. Champagne for Caesar was refreshing to watch in action, and used several interesting new variations on challenges. A workshop for novice Theatresports players will be held Saturday from 1:00 to 4:00 in CCllO, and all intrigued newcomers are welcome to come out. The session will cover the basic improvision skills and rules of the Theatresports game. As usual, the seekly game is Friday at 9:30 in HH180. The Linda Carson Press Release Company

Film with

experiments language.

Every now and again something new arrives on the scene. In the film industry, back in 1927, the talking picture created ucusual excitement and only decades before Pathe of France introduced the Berliner gramophone in quasi-synchronization with film. Again today the film industry experiences something new. Quest For Fire is a film that has the ability to create a new and unusual excitement. Quest For F ire is the new invention in universal language communication. Our present day is made up of high speed electronic communications that dazzle the mind. It is refreshing to find that Quest For Fiie transcends the present day by the’ invention of new correspondence between pre-historic beings. The time period for this film is set 80,000 years ago and centres upon four leading characters who struggle for the possession of fire. Fire is the essential source for cooking food, keeping warm, for light, and for protection.

The most astonishing advancement for this film is that there is not a single word of English nor any living language spoken. The four leading characters speak a 150-word language developed by Anthony Burgess. Surprisingly, this science fantasy adventure is easily understood. Various sequences of this film are very comical, while other sequences reveal the harsh cannibalistic environment that faces all beings. Ika played by Rae Dawn Chong (daughter of Tommy Chong of the successful Cheech and Chong comedy team) emits a high squealing language and knows how to survive by making fire and making love. This Canada-France coproduction was shot in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, in Scotland and in Kenya. The colour and natural surroundings combine with music that is dramatic and highly moving. This film offers something new about a subject that is as old as mankind. James Hayhow

their voices, hands and feet tapping. Somehow the end result sounds great! What kind of music-do they sing? How does the crowd respond to them? Don’t they use any instruments? To get the answers to thesequestionsyou have toactuallyexperience their show. The overhead lights godownand the peopleinside quiet down in anticipation. Four men in black windbreakersand black pants make their way through the crowd. By the time they reach the stage, the crowd is giving them a rousing roundof applause. The bass singer starts with his “Do de wop, do de wop”, to be joined by the other three to form a vocal backup wall of sound. Before the lead si’nger starts singing the words, a girl towards the back excitedly exclaims, “This is great!” For the people who had&t heard the Nylons before, they had heard the songs before. Everyone joined in, tapping and singing along with some of their favorite old songs. In their first set, it was songs. such as Runaway, Silhouettes and Bumble Boogie (in the key of Bee) which got the biggest response. Intertwined with the old songs were some of the group’s original compositions. Since these songs were written specifically for themselves, the members take advantage of the complete range of the human voice. These songs also drew excellent responses from the audience. The second part of their show was even better than the first. Both they and the audience had warmed up to each other. For 3 change of pace, they actually used a set of congo drums, a tambourine and a cowbell as they whetted the crowd’s appetite for some Love Potion ##9. It was easy to tell that a good portion of the audience had heard the Nylons before, since they knew which songs were coming up next. It was this group of people that lead the cheer for an encore. The result was a superb version of The Lion Sleeps Tonight. Unfortunately, the crowd was unable to get a second encore out of the boys. Maybe they were saving themselves for their shows the following two nights. Even though we wanted more, the show was very well done. Everyone enjoyed what they heard, and are now spreading the word about how good a show the Nylons put on. If they come back to this area again, I would definitely recommend that you try and datch their act. It is something everyone should get a chance to experience. Terry Bolton

‘WWIII

Good guys lose in World War iI Brian Harris (based on screenplay by Robert L. Joseph) Pocket Books, February, 1982 As the title suggests, this is a war story. It is also science fiction, in that a) it is concerned with the future (1987), and b) it tries to predict events from current trends. However, the technology is in no way exceptional (although it seems the writers have given some thought to accuracy) and the book should be easily understandable to a non-science fiction audience. The upshot of all this is that the book tries to guess what the world will be like in 1987 - what the US is doing, what the Soviets are doing - and why. It does this through several characters’eyes; one character is the President of the United States; another, the Soviet Chairman of the Central Committee; yet a third, the man who directs the first military action on the US side of World War III. The latter character, Lt. Col. Jacob Caffey, is the hero of the book. I think it could be said with a great degree of correctness that the villain of the book could be called “force of circumstance”.

Friday,

This narrative technique tends to make the book very readable; it commonly doesn’t descend into textbook-like reciting of circumstances as to why the characters have to act the way they do. World War IIIcould have beenextremelydull; it is merely tedious at times. About three-quarters of the way through the book, I had thought the point the author was trying to make ran something like this: It is well to remember that the United States is not theonly - and perhaps not even the most evil - villainabroadon the international scene. The style of today’s self-styled intelligentsia is to criticize the States for their involvement in South American countries, for trying to encourage nuclear ,arms proliferation in Europe (e.g. persuading the British to accept Cruise missiles on their soil), or anything else that Reagan or Haig feel necessary to ensure the security of the USA against Russia. While remembering the evils of American imperialism, people tend to simultaneously forget the Soviets - e.g. Afghanistan: a blatant invasion and takeover; or Poland, a visible and active threat to a country already more than half-

novel satellite. Or the KGB and the Gulag Archipelago. What these socially-minded individuals should remember is that their personal survival - and the survival of a society that permits their protests to go by without them being in danger of arrest in the night and a quiet garroting in a cell - is very directly dependant on the survival of the States. What price survival? I like and approve of this theme, if only because that “selfstyled intelligentsia” seems especially concentrated at university and one runs across them dismally often. It is refreshing to hear the opposing view. One doesn’t want to sound like a war-hawk, or to defend human rights violations; on the other hand, quite frankly, the American system is probably easier to live with than the Russian. (Let us be glad we aren’t El Salvadoran, or Ukrainian.) The book’s central conflict is between the States and the USSR. Remember the grain embargo against the Soviets the States raised when Afghanistan was invaded? In this book, it works. Very well. Russians are hungry - even starving. It doesn’t work the way Carter thought it would, however; instead of pulling out of Afghanistan, certain parts of the Soviet government look on this as an act of war - and retaliate. Having established the theme that Russians are as bad as Americans (maybe worse) the book goes on to some others. Another theme throughout the book is reminiscent of Dr. Strdngeloue - instead of an American Colonel beginning the first actions of ‘the big one’, a Russian KGB man on his own authority, lands 900 superbly trained assault troops in Alaska, figuring if the USA could cut off grain, Russia could cut off oil. Another, related, theme the book expresses is written succinctly enough to quote: Rudenski (KGB head) knows. Not Chairrna+Gorny. Vorashin felt his hands tremble. He tasted the metallic flavor of fear on his tongue. The shrewd little men with notebooks were taking over . . .” The idea is that bureaucratization is acting to remove the power from the men who should hold it; and this is happening to the Russians as much as the Americans. Another theme (unfortunately one that vanishes, or the author strives to disprove in the last two pages of the book) is that personal heroism still matters. This is the reason I liked this book (up until the last two pages). The culmination of the main plot of the book, and this theme, is that Col. Caffey, with nine men, confronts the Russian force (in excess of seven hundred) and wins. I like a book where the “good guys” win. The author doesn’t. That’s why he puts in the final “plot twist”. I shouldn’t say what this is because it would spoil whatever impact this book is supposed to have. It don’t have a lot of respect for that impact, because its purpose is to prove heroism, skilful maneouvering, hope, or simply having the courage to face facts and act upon them, prove entirely meaningless in the face of the force of circumstances. I don’t want to accept that. On the other hand, maybe that is the message of the book and I am quite simply wrong: all the best of intentions cannot save the world from destruction; the collective human death-wish (nuclear arms proliferation) has progressed so far that almost anything can push us over the brink. In the final analysis, the best recommendation I can come up with is one should borrow this book from someone else; $2.95 is too expensive for a disappointment. As for myself, I got it free for review and when Iam done with it (now) I am giving it to an unsuspecting anti-war oriented fellow. Anti-war people deserve books that say no matter what you do, you’re going to get blasted. Myself, I’m not pro-war; I’m pro-winning. The shame about this book is that the good guys almost win. That’s why I’m not keeping& John W. Bast -5

other divinatory sciences, the palm reveals a detailed pattern that is absolutelyunattributable to anyone else. Intuitive palmists interpret mounds, lines andmarks on the hand through their intuition; while scientific palmistry correlates them with particular meanings. The two can be combined. Accurate palmistryisrightlyreferredtobyits advocates as also beingapsychic ability. Once again - no one is quite sure how old the art is. It was mentioned in Chinese manuscripts dated three B.C. andin some Indian records preceding then. It is difficult to pinpoint because palmistry was verymuchorallydictateduntilthe thirteenth century when definite writtenevidencecomes to light. The palmistry used today seems to have emlerged from Indiain the pre-Medic era, andspreadthroughEurope by merchants and learned men. It fell out of popularity in the suspicious Medieval age; back, in the Elizabethan; and then out again, when science began to worship rationality in the seventeenth and eighteenthcenturies. But another comeback occuredin the 1800's; and a William Benham produced his detailed text, “TheLaws of a Scientific Hand Reading”, advocatingpalmistry basedonrational deduction andobservation. Now, several modern authors are attempting to merge traditional modes of the art with current psychological and medical research that associate markings on the hands withspecificmentaland physical states.

Sillborn and premature children are statistically more likely to have the simian crease as well. Schizophrenics tend to bear more deformed or broken ridges on their palms, more whorls on their fingertips, and have exceptionally long, pointed fifth fingers in relation to the rest of their hands.

meet Brock Warriors basketball semi-finals If any basketball game has ever been aptly titled “tense” it was Tuesday’s quarter final at Western. Western had beaten the Warriors twice in regular season play but before the game Waterloo coach Don McCrae said that the were the team Mustangs Waterloo wanted to meet. It was a Waterloo delight with the final 78-73 for the Warriors. * Expecting a tough match the Warriors came out strong. Western offers a tough squad, with big man Ross Hurd, who will be an OU AA all star, and a complementary tight zone and quick offense, the Mustangs are quite a team to face. Nonetheless, it was Waterloo who quickly took charge running up an immediate lead. At 17: 16 with the first time out the Warriors were ahead 9-2, giving Western a fight at the boards, one of the spots Waterloo has had the most trouble with the Mustangs in previous encounters. The early spurt tired them though and by the half Western had managed a single point lead. It wasn’t a lead that was to flourish or be enjoyed for long. Waterloo came charging back in for the second half. Breckbill put three smooth buckets up from the top of the court to spark the assault and then Coach McCrae made a slight change of staff that helped seal the game in Waterloo’s favour. Harry Van Drunen came in off . the Waterloo bench with amazing results. According to Harry “When you’re on the bench you’ve always got to be ready to go.” Go he did. Waterloo took charge of the game, “The post men exploded to the box,” commented Phil Jarrett and McCrae went so far as to say that Kurtz, Breckbill, Van Oorschot and King played the game like it was football. Breckbill had eight rebounds. Van Oorschot had 7. Both men scored 14 points. The game itself attests once more to the fact that the OUAA (Ontario University Athletic Association) is a tremendously competi,tive league. That the Warriors won the game was not too surprising but the struggle they put up to do it was delightful in the opinion. Western. ‘writers attempted to feed their big men under the basket but their gamble was expensive for Hurd and Hunt only managed 17 for 23 attempts between them and the Warriors post men held on for dear life, a decisive point in the Warrior onslaught. “We’ve played with so many people all year that we can always find a player to play well. It’s a different bunch of guys every time,” explained the Coach, “You find theguys who are clicking and you go with them.” .“Harry has had very few minutes all year but few people are aware that he trains twicea day. He has set a real example. When I put him in 1 had no anxieties. It was a very critical time and ourgame improved,” added McCrae.

Now the Warriors advance to meet Brock. After last week’s loss to their Badgers, the Warriors are psyched up. “They shoved it at us with their big men,” McCrae said, “We’re going to make sure we

Coach Don McCrae estimated, “We just,, got carried along. That’s a dangerous thing to have happen in a basketball game.” Brock and the Warriors spent a good portion of the game going basket for basket, with the Badgers able to pester Waterloo by taking an edge that wouldn’t quite be closed. The end of the first half saw Brock ahead 40-36, not a substantial lead, with Waterloo looking good on rebounds and Savich making 14 points. Statistically the Badgers only shot 5 1% ( 18/ 35) as compared to Waterloo’s 44% (17/39). Waterloo had possession in the second half and Savich quickly made the score 40-38. Brock however managed to reestablish a healthy lead that held until theI end of the game when the final score had the troublesome badgers up by eight points.

Skaters

UW students Last weekend, the University of Waterloo . Figure Skating team competed and finished remarkably well at the 0 WI AA championships held at Western. Universities that competed included U of T, York, Western, Queens, Carleton and of course Waterloo. Among the top finishers of the team was Mary Cook, a fourth year Recreation student, who took top honors placing 2nd in the Junior Interpretive event, and finishing at the Intermediatelevel. “I skated giving it my best shot, knowing that this would be my final year competing for Waterloo”, said Cook.

Reid, with her dazzling skating performance, finished 3rd overall in the Junior Ladies competition. Fiona also competed with 4th year Optometry student, Lorelei Locker, in the Junior Similar Pair Dance, ending up with a respectable 5th place finish. GinaGincauskas,coachand team manager of the skating team, won third place in the Intermediate Solo Dance competition. Gina, a third year Science student, was more than ecstatic with the performance of the Waterloo team this year. “This was our best year ever at the OWIAA fials. We all felt prepared going into the competition and so, in turn, ,our. confidence paid off in the standings”.

The Senior Danceand Open Ladies categories were well represented by Tamara Allison who finished 5th and 6th respectively. Unfortunately the Waterloo Figure Skating Team is not funded by the University. Therefore, all the atheletes that did complete, do so on their own expense and initiative. This in itself is quite an accomplishment.

“Placing as high as we did was an extra bonus for our team”, says Gincauskas. “We were happy enough just to be able to compete”. Thanks to these competitors, this was Waterloo’s most successful ’ year ever at OWIAA figure skating finals.

The team played on International courts and thus had difficulty placing their high lob serves (perfect for our North American courts) in the court. Campbell dominated her squash match displaying her excellent playing ability. Lyn Caswell played anexcitingand exhausting match finally winning 3-2 in games. Many of her drop shots were winners.

The meet was over: The coaches gathered together, locked away in a room somewhere. The nominations were in. The vote was taken. Finally the results were made known. Dave Heinbuch, the coach of the Waterloo Warriors swim team, is the Ontario University Athletic Association’s “Coach of the Year.” Heinbuch has been Waterloo’s head swim coach since September 1979, and this is the first recognition he has gotten for the outstanding job he has done. Under Heinbuch’s coachfinished ing, the Warriors fourth out of fourteen teams in the Ontario championships. It went right down to the wire at the end. It wasn’t until the final relay was’ over that Western was assured of third spot. When asked his opinion of the swim team’s performance, Heinbuch replied, “This is the youngest team we have ever taken to the OUAA’s,and they did very well.” Only one member of the Warriors, Steve MacNeil, re-

At the first meet held February 12, the highlight was Mark lnman’s race, this time a 1500m in 3:50.9, the leading University time in thecountry. In other action, Lisa Amsden ran to the third fastest time in University competition nationally this year with a 2:53.0 1000m.
