Johnson by Len Gamache Imprint staff Leo Johnson, a University of Waterloo history professor, was sentenced this week to two years in prison followed by three years’ probation, during which time he is notto associate with anyone under 16 years of age unless accompanied by an adult and not to frequent any place where children under 16 congregate. Six weeks ago, Johnson had pleaded guilty to ten charges of sexual misconduct with juvenile females(ninecounts ofindecentassault and one count of intercourse with a

gets two years in reformatotiy female under 14). Since then, more than 30 witnesses have testified for both the Crown and the defence at the Waterloo Region court. Saying that Johnson had “broached the greatest trust that can be bestowed on a man”, Judge Robert Reilly indicated that he will recommend that Johnson receive treatment for his pedophilic tendencies. Defence lawyer David Cooke had argued that Johnson receive a short jail term and a lengthy probation so that he could be on hand to teach classes here beginning in January.

contract

by Kerry Woodrow Imprint staff On Tuesday, the Board of Governors’ Executive Committee awarded Watcon Inc. the contract for building the University’s new hockey arena. Watcon submitted a final cost estimate of $1,376,648, which excludes a running track. Considering the track an important part of the facility, the committee unanimously agreed to divert some Watfund money to provide for the running track. Director of Physical Earnie Lappin, Planning at the University of Waterloo, told the committee, “The arena will be ready by September ‘83 and will be open in October’83.” The final cost of the facility will be $1.5 million after paying fees (architectural, etc.) and buying an ice resurfacing machine. Lappin suggested that a few technical details needed to

Assistant Crown Attorney Dorothee Retterath had asked for a sentence of five years in a penitentiary. In issuing a two-year “reformatory” sentence to Johnson, Judge Reilly noted that while a stiffer penitentiary sentence would be in order given the facts, he questioned whether it would be in the “best interests of justice” and whether it would provide “the best protection of the community in the future”. Reilly indicated that character evidence given during the hearing mostly by university colleagues on

behalf of Johnson was a key factor in keeping him from receiving a “penitentiary” sentence. On the other hand, Reilly felt that the planned, deliberate seduction of young children was a “corruption” which existed in Johnson’s private life - a side of the man which the public and his colleagues were not familiar with. The charges against Johnson involve three of five Guyanese immigrant children under his legal guardianship. Evidence presented also showed that there was sexual involvement with other neighbor-

hood children. Johnson and his wife had volunteered to adopt the Guyanese children in 1976 after hearing about the possible deportation of the children and their mother. A specialist in Marxist and labour history, Johnson had been reassigned to a research term in September and had been working on the history of Canadian Indians. Since Johnson will be unable to teach in January he is subject to dismissal. There has been no official statement released by the university as of yet.

be worked out, which may add a few minor costs to the final figure. Watcon made it clear that most of the brick, timber, and other aesthetically desireable features of the arena will not be sacrificed to reduce the cost. One plan to save $7,000 is to have the score board donated by a sponsor.‘The commitee expressed little concern about having a sponsor’s name displayed on the scoreboard but have decided to consider the matter at another time. The site services, such as the sanitary sewer and watermain, will beconstructed to serve not only the arena but-the proposed future facilities as well. For the time being, parking will be accommodated by a gravel parking lot. Seating in the arena will be similar to the fold-out setup in the PAC, and will service 300 to 400 people.

E.S. students depart for India by Wendy Yurka On January 8th, 1983, a group of 26 lvironmental Studies students will ave for a four month field trip to dia. The group will be led by Sehdev umar, a professor in the Environental Studies department and rmer resident of India. India has been classed as one of the 3rld’s ‘great civilizations’ - its social -uctures as they exist to day can be iced back thousands of years with spires far greater in size and mplexity than anything in Europe. It is a country with many diversities; vast as it is crowded, as luxurious as s squalid, plain and featurelessas the malayas are high and spectacular.

Its role as the birth place for two of the world’s great religions is enough to ensure its significant historical importance. The trip begins in Bombay, where the first two weeks will be spent touring the city and surrounding tourist attractions. Bombay’s film industry is larger than Hollywood. From here, the group will embark on a train for a 20hour journey to Madras and Sri Lanka, where they will tour thecoastal fishing villages by boat. Sri Lanka, previously known as Ceylon, is home to one of the most productive tea industries in the world. Upon departing Sri Lanka, the group will disassemble into sub-

groups of three or four. Each subgroup will travel on their own for two weeks, to particularregions toconduct research needed to complete their degrees. After the two week period, the whole group will reassemble in Hydrabad for a five day conference to exchange ideas and share experiences. This occurs a total of three times with the final two group sessions in Bhuvneshwara and Katmandu. The final meeting in Katmandu will be spent trekking in the Himalayas. I There is no amount of preparation which. can be undertaken - by the travellers to prepare themselves for

India. However, the group has been meeting weekly during the fall for potluck dinners, films, and guest speakers. Upon returning to the University, the group will submit impressions, evaluations, and final projects based on the subgroups’ research. For many . the trip will expose a significant alternative to traditional education that of experiential education. The study-oriented nature of the trip will give students the opportunity to contemplate and analyse the experience while they are still a part of it. It will not only be an experience of India for them but also of themselves and their own unique cultural characteristics.

arms race will be presented by Dr. Swadesh Rana. Rana is Political Affairs Officer of the U.N. Centre for Disarmament. She has been a consultant for several U.N. studies, one of which concluded that the populations of developing countries will be doomed to perpetual poverty unless global military expenditures are reduced. The session begins at 7:30 p.m. in Siegfried Hall and winds down with singing by Robert Carty, Paul Kirwoy, and Dave Graham from Toronto. The Canadian role in international disarmament and development will be discussed in a Saturday, 7:30 p.m. public session of the conference, again at Siegfried Hall. Speakers will be Walter McLean, MP, and Ernie Regehr, a researcher on Canadian Arms production .for Project -Ploughshares and the Institute of Peace and Conflict Studies at Conrad” Grebel College. The conference concludes with a public ecumenical service Sunday, 10 a.m., at the Conrad Grebel College Chapel. Rev. Dr. Russel Legge, President of the Canadian Council of Churches will be the main speaker.

Beating the food taxes? by Rob Macqueen Imprint staff Are you interested in avoiding the 7 per cent tax on campus food? Bob Mudie at Food Services has found a loophole which may make it possible. According to Mudie, if Food Services sells students “funny money” in minimum amounts of 150 dollars thenall food purchased with this money from any Food Services outlet on campus will be tax-free. This is because the scheme qualifies as a “meal plan” under recent tax .legislation. Questionnaires are available at South Campus hall and other Food Services outlets this week, and if student response is favourable, then the plan will be instituted next term, says Mudie.

The “Women’s Health Products Study” is a Iroad study taken or/l by the City of Toronto’s Department of Health examining the’lack of rigilance in the testing, labelling, and montoring of women-only products such. asp louches, feminine hygiene sprays, birth conrol devices, tampons, and pregnancy and ’ nenopause drugs.

without

competition” in Canadian banking, “the banks and inflation”, and thedubious practices ofthe Canadian banks in their overseas. operations. Printed below are some of Stewart’s caustic comments on these and other subjects. The purpose of Towers of G%@: Feet of Clay: The attempt . . . was to look &t banks in a different way than ‘they’re pormally looked at in this country . . . that is, simply ,. without awe. Ba-nking is a straight business like any other, e;en though it seems enormouslycomplicaterl. It is, in essence,& one bariker told me, “apointlby number business. The banks are in the-business of buying and selling money. The banks say that they are trying to control inflation.” . ., . So, what I tried to do was to look it what the banks do instead of what they say they do. And what the banks dd is &lI u’s’ as much money as they possibly can, at as high a rate as they possibly can while telling us that it’s good for us. The aspect in which banks are unique is that they spend more time denying what they do for a lixing thanany other industry with the possible - exception of streetwalking. The banks’role

as financial

advisors’

Bankers are great kidders, which is what makes life so interesting in this couptry for widows and orphans. Bankers are always telling us thai we can trust them. . . that they have advice for us. That we accept their advice on financial matters seems’ berserk when you think about it. The blanker, like the car salesman, is pushing a product, he’s pushing it with all his skill and he’s pushing it for his benefit and not for, -yours. The banking

industry

iation. It is us&d primarily by the medical profession and designed only for drug-related adverse- affects. It is a dead-end body where complaints are lodged and little is done about them. More publicity is needed, to inform women of the ,health products that are potentially dangerous. When a product is pulled off the market, few peopleareaware why. The Dalkon Shield was quietly pulled off the market in 1974. The average female consumer was unaware of the thousands of women tiho had severe pelvic inflammatory disease, and of the 17 women who died. In fact, one million of the three million women who used Dalkon shields had them inserted aftercthe company learned they were dangerous through complaints. In all cases, Canadian women are at the mercy of the corporation. To help change this, read the Women’s Health Products Study, available at the Waterloo Public Interest Research Group office, CC 2 17, and write Dr. A. B. Morrison, Assistant Deputy Minister at the Health Production Branch, Health and Welfare, Ottawa.

and competition:

One of the ways banks like toskid us is when they talkaboutthe tough competition in their business. And we’ve believed them.

After all, would they spend all that moqey on TV ads if they weren’t coml>eting? But look at the-prime rate. There is no prim-e rate anywherein theU.K.ThereisnoprimerateintheU.S.ButinCanadawehave a prime rate (the rate at which the banks lend money to their most favourite customers) and it’s the same for every bank, right across the board. When I made this point in my book, the -president of the Canadian Bankers Association said I was quite wrong. “It’s a fact,” he said, “that you can walk into a bank for a loan at any time and bargain about ra_tes.” So you can move a bank rate by as much as half a percent. Up! You start with the 1 prime rate and then you go up. T~s+a.zzd g~~~nrne~t-regulation: I j .* ~2,’++-+Yw As far as I can tell in Canadian banking, the reguratbrsand the regulatees are all mixed up’into,one - th,e Canadian Inspector , General of Banks, when he talksabout banking, talksabout“we” and “us”. I’n the U.S., bank inspections are carried out in an advisory situation. In Canada, the inspections of the banks are carried out by the banks themselves. Loans to foreign

countries:

When you’re dealing with enormous loans to (countries like) Mexico, Rumania, Zaire, Chile, and Poland there’s no backing there. What happens, when these loans turn sour, is that the bafiks, sensibly, pretend it didn’t happen. They “reschedule” the , loan. Poland has been bankrupt for four years. . I went to my bank managerand said,“1 would likealoan on the same terms as Poland.” Namely, That I wouldn’t pay anything for four years, 60 per cent of the interest would be dropped and I’d be given-another 550 milliondollars to tide me over. I got a wintry . smile but I did not get a loan.

There’sgot to bea reason. There’s got to be a reason why Federation presidents. land on their feet against seemingly overwhelming odds. Supporters of Shane Roberts and Doug Thompson, in the long run (albeit in the widest possible sense)ended up with what they wanted (in the Chevron issue), though of course Roberts and Thompson certainly didn’t benefit from it. Neil Freeman, in the most dramatic contest (the Fee Hike Strike issue) in recent years, ended up fully in command. And now, so does Wim Simonis and the Federation Board of Directors. It appeared a significant number of people thought that Simonis and his administration were about to meet their Waterloo. There was a significant number of Student Councillors disgruntled over the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS) issue. They had a vocal student group angered, and a student group that might have supported Simonis (the Waterloo Jewish Students Association) was, as a group, curiously silent‘(the Iranian-Muslim Student Association (IMSA) issue). There was publicity -in addition to advertisements and Fed posters, even privately published posters. While I didn’t believe that IMSA would be reinstated, I felt sure that the votes turning up in support of that, plus people in agreement with the motion calling for (albeit clumsily) censure and resignation of Simonis and the Board of Directors (BOD) would be enough, together, to upset Simonis. But the Luck of the Presidents was abroad. If Simonis had written a note to Santa, the outcome of that meeting would be at the top of the list. He won everything. Mullarkey (mover of the censure motion) and IMSA lost really bad . . . Now, I don’t want to talk about‘“stacking” the meeting. Democracy has its rules, they are not gentlemanly rules, and they allow (actually, they encourage) people to ask their friends and supporters to attend. Student councillor and Board of Directors’ member Greg Cassidy -encouraged ,people to come; IMSA must 0 have tried, too. Mullarkey put out a poster.

The Impiint

But there\were enough people-present that no onegroupcould control the meeting. It appears the single largest group present were “just” students. I I The results of the meeting appear to knock the props from beneath the arguments of Fed critics (doubtless including myself). Students appear to approve of *what Simonis has done, and is doing. Specifically: 1. Restructuring the Federation is fine. Notably, Simonis can remain president until the end of next term, an extens,ion of two months. 2) The usual wimpy motion on a new Pub was passed. Research is fine . . . though not, perhaps, as much as Simonis wanted, it nonetheless keeps at least one Fedexec harmlessly and creatively occupied. 3) Considering at least two thirds, and possibly.more than three quarters (Nobody counted the votes. I don’t believe it, but nobody counted.) of the meetingvoteddown censure and resignation for the BOD and Simonis, over the CFS issue, said people can look at one another and say,-“We did right.” 4. Since the proportions were approximately the same on the motion to reinstate the Iranian Muslims, the BOD and Simonis can once again congratulate themselves on a job well done. .

(Though what may -be worth noting is, since the suspension of IMSA was for this term only, they are reinstated next term. Who will take a bet that this dead letter will be resurrected anyway, de,spite the fact that IMSA has appealed to every Fed body in sight?) It is very hard to invalidate a Federation General Meeting. A GM is where the stops are all pulled out. Everybody and his dog has a vote. There is plenty of time to lobby. The result may be hard to swallow, but it is usually, undeniably, the bottom line. Such is the case here. Merry Christmas, Wim Simonis. If VOX Populi, Yox Dei is in fact true, God is on your side. John W. Bast

WHERE PHOTOGRAPHY

STARTS


B,uddies To the editor: We are writing’in response to the November 15, 1982 letter, written by Udai Basavaraj (more commonly known as Woody), in which he demands a personal apology from a certain. University of Waterloo security officer. we ‘were among the grotip that was with Woody when the circumstance occurred. Since we became acquainted with him that particular evening, we believe that we have the necessary objectivity it takes to see the situation in light of what it was. When -Woody saw a bicycle (fully knowing that it was not his) in the trunk of a moving

say ‘-Woodf to 1 security vehicle, he believed it would be amusing to the rest of the group if he started to shout excessive prbfanities at the officers. Woody said that he was then surprised to see the security car stop, and an officer approach him; upon hearing the series of obscenities. We were not and still are not surprised at the officer’s behaviour. Why shouldn’t he .appreach a student who is shouting profanity directly at him for no apparent reason? We are also not surprised that the officer gave Woody a push with his fingers on Woody’s chest and told Wood)- to shut his

I

Fed’s politics

mouth. We believe that it was the officer’s intention to instil1 fear into Woody, so that he would nut make his bad behaviour a habit. Woody said that the officer was acting in an unprofessional manner. We-on the other hand, believe that if the officer had not acted upon Woody’s verbal abuse, then the officer would have been unprofessional. However the use of profanities by the officer were uncalled for since the same results could have been obtained without the use of them. Woody suggests that the officer should not be “prone to personal emotional and immature outbursts.” The fact of the matter is that tlhe

,-Pugsley won’t swallow it! To the editor: I am sorry to see a student council so disoriented that it can cancel its own vdte in two successive meetings. I refer to the vote to ask for prospective membership of the CFS, which was followed last Sunday by another vote effectively deciding not to apply for the prospective membership. In between the two meetings Wim Simonis and his sidekicks tried to sabotage the student council’s decision by appealing at .. the Victoria conference to a little known clause in the CFS constitution. The student body last year voted, in an expensive referendum, against Simonis’s motion to leave the OFS. So the Fed. president has a pretty clear mandate from the students to stay in regional and national student bodies. Simonis is using devious political tactics to keep Waterloo out of student bodies, ignoring what Waterloo students want. Why would he do that? Possibly because membership of the CFS would cost Waterloo $4 per stud,ent, or at least $40,0.00 a , yeai. SO there would be less money to spend on decorating the Fed. offices ($16,000 this year) free concerts ($3,000 each) and enlarging pub facilities (I forget how much). There would also be

Does Cohen 4

Allison:

less money (and therefore,less power) for our local student body to control. However, CFS works for all students acrdss Canada, supporting their rights by campaigns of-united action and by research projects. It’s a body to which we ought to belong for educational reasons alone. if it isn’t perfect, wecanchange it once we have full membership. Wim Simonis was once enthusiastic enough about OFS to apply for membership on its executive board. He was rejected. Suddenly the campaign against regional and national organizations began. Another thing about our Federation president that makes me laugh is that he was opce quoted in Imprint as saying that he wanted to keep politics out of the Federation of students, (perhaps to set it up more like a business - take a look at their outfits). Does he think-we are so stupid as to swallow that? He is an experienced politician who wants to keep out only thi: opposition. _ Meanwhile, back at the student,council: there were red faces when the councillors who had just voted out CFS realized that a previous council meeting had voted for a referendum on the issue. Oh dear. Try again. Pam Pugsley

like massacres?’

- To the editor: ’ As a person raised in the Jewish faith, I am appalled at the insensitivity of other Jewish students on campus to the genocide committed by the Zionists in Lebanon. All of them, with the exception of-myself, have kept their mouths shut about these ’ crimks ag 1st humanity which equal those committed by Nazi Germany in World War II. For a group of students who like to present themselves as authorities on’persecution, the Jewish students on campus are conspicuously silent about the Israeli aggression in Lebanon. It seems that when it comes to Israel, invading, occupying and coionizing other people’s lands is acceptable to some Jewish students. It seems that their motto is: Isiael right or wrong. During this semester, though, a number of Jewish students have managed to fine a pretext to attack one of the few student associations, the Iranian Muslim Students’ Association, which took a public stand against the Israeli aggression. One of them, Dgn Cohen, submitted a Ietter to Imprint last week in which he statedthat he was“hurt”bytheIMSAposterequatingtheStarof David with the Nazi Swasfika.

But Dan Cohen, like most of his co-religionists, have avoided themainissueraisedbytheIMS,Aintheirposterwhichisthatthe Israeli aggression in Lebanon, gui!ed by the ideology and politics of Zionism, is equivalent to the activities of Nazi Germany. I would really like to know whether Dan Cohen supports the invasion and occupation of the sovereign country of Lebanon; if he supports the wanton destruction of cities and towns by the Israeli armed forces; if he supports the massacres of the Palestinian women, children and old folk in the Shatilla and Sabra refugee camps which were organized and supervised by the Israeli Zionists; and if he supports the expansionist activities of the Zionists on the West Bank and Gaza. AsfarasIamconcerned, theaboveactivitiesoftheZionistsare no different than the activities of Nazi Germany and it is no metaphor to say that the Star of David is dripping with the blood of Palestinian and other Arab peoplesjust like the Nazi Swastika was drenched with the blood of millions of European and other peoples.

out of line, timing

To the editor: I would like to inform readers, and especially Villagers, as to ’ the fund-raising methods of the 3rd Annual Benefit Semi-Formal Committee. As President of the Village 1 Council, it came tQ my attention this past Monday that our Council was expected to makea quite sizeabledonation, in order to help cover the overhead costs of the Semi-Formal that was sponsored by the Villages. To the editor: On Wednesday, December’ 8th, 1982, Planned - Parenthood Waterloo Region is sponsoring a workshop on’rape. Guest speaker Kathy Moscato, will discuss how both sexes can w’ork together to aid rape victims and eliminate this growing problem. This meeting is open to the public, and both men and women are encouraged to attend. The workshop beginsat 7:00 p.m. in the board room of the new Waterloo County Board of Education building, building two, 51 Ardelt Avenue, Kitchener. For more infqrmation, contact Marg -van Vliet, ~ 743-646 1.

off?

First of all,%it seems ironic that an event which was staged on the part of the Villages, was organized without the consuh.ation of either Council. Secondly, I feel that the Chairman of the Committee, Tom Allison, made his appeal for donations at the wrong time. Mr. Tom was expected to present the sum of the financial donations to charity on Tuesday, November 29. However, he waited until Sunday (Nov. 27) to approach the Village 2 Council and Monday (Nov. 28) to appeal to Village 1. If planning for the event begad in late September, then why did he wait until the last s minute to seek support? Fqrthermore, it was made clear to Mr. Tom at the VI meeting that the Council could not afford to make the donation he requested, without placing their financial status in jeopardy. It was moved, nevertheless, to donate upwards of $800 to the Committee, but fortunately the motion was not passed. Finally, I would like to thank all those who voted “no” on Monday night. The actions of Chairman Tom Allison were out of line. Also, the complications that were added by Doug McCarthy-did not help matters. I hope that Mr. Tom is happy with his efforts to “enhance the reputation of the Villages” in the community. Peter MacLeod President, Village 1 Council

Even past horror cim . grow tiresomt To the editor: Although I support neither the misuse of political symbols by the I.M.S.A., nor the murder of Jews, Gypsies, and Blacks etc. by the Nazi’s during World War Two, I wish to question the apparent bitterness felt by Mr. Cohen (Apalled by . . .; Forum: Nov. 26) for an event ending nearly forty years ago. For our grand-parents’ generation the Holocaust shall never be forgotten. For our parent’s generation for those who were old enough to remember it - it is a memory that remains by choice. For our generation - to which I feel safe in including Mr. Cohen - any memories, and in this case, anger, can only be inherited and kept alive by the individual himself. I question whether the loss

Mr. Cohen feels for those r.el atives killed ten to.fifteen year before. his birth is justified o whether it is merely an attemp to make the rest of us feel guilt for a historical period in whit we had no part. I also wonder: his sense of loss shall be passe ohto his children a& thei children in turn, creating i them aggrievegent for whit there is no cause. , The lessons, for both ma and psychologist ‘alike learned from the secon World War are many and’sha not be-soon forgotten.

supporters

To the editor: Re: Letter by Dan Cohen, p. 9,Imprintfor November26,1982. As a Survivor of the Holocaust and founder as well 2s Chairwoman of the University of Waterloo Ad Hoc Committee on Holocaust and Jewish Studies Studies I can only concur strongly with Mr. Cohen. Since I am also one of the two founding members of the Women’s Studies activities, including the new Option, on this campus, it can hardly be said that I am not one hundred percent for the rights of women. The other founding member hasleft this campus to go to OISE, but I am sure the majority of women active on behalf of women’s rights will endorse my support of Mr.

Cohen’s letter. It might be of interest to your readers to seejust ho& persistent and dreadful the social disease of anti-Semitism has been during twenty-three centuries. To help them get some idea, I am enclosing a chronology derived from a booklet by the title AntiSemitism. I am also enclosing a starter bibliography which you may wish to print in part. A very good starting point for those unfamiliar withathe whole issue of the historical scapegoating of Jews may find the little paperback, The Anguish of the Jews, published by the Catholic priest Edward H. Flannery in 1965, to be of great assistance in throwing light on a totally monstrous chapter of human history. The bookstore of the University of

Waterloo also carries a few copies of a famous paperback, The Survivor, An Anatomy of Life in The Death Camps, by the American scholar Terrence Des Presand issued by Pocket Books in 1977. A new Canadian text on the subject is None Is Too Many by historians Irving Abella and Harold Troper, published in hardcover by Lester & Orpen Dennys in 1982. This book costs $19.95 but will presumably appear in paperback next year.

by George Elliott Clarke Poverty is one of those touchy subjects, like sex, that we would rather not discuss..It is a fact of life that we prefer beencountered only by middle-class social workers, misguided radicals, tooserious ministers and other busybodies, for we have comelier things to do and think about. Thus, we Pave recourse to, and take refuge in, various, pieasant, bohrgeois myths: “People who are poor don’t work hard enough, so it’s their own fault”and another: “It is God’s will that some people be poor”. Naturally, if we are to grapple with dirt-true poverty, we must dispense with myth (for the coming winter is predicted to be long and cold, and we don’t have much time). Let us begin with some definitions: Poverty is not a batch of statistics intoned by the CBC, it is stick children standing in breadlines at the decripit Salvation Army in downtown Winnipeg. It has an anxious, human face. Poverty is not the faded denim of a counter-culture

agronomist; rather, it’s the torn, tattered and ragged clothes of a migrant, scarecrow, emaciated farm labourer. Nor is it church or “easy listening” music; instead, it’s a dustbowl dirge on the praries, a washerwoman’s wail in the Maritimes, and the wind crying like workers unemployed all over the industrial heartland of Ontario. Poverty is not bright lights,excitement, travel, oreloquence: It is a grin- , man-filthed sky; dawn-terror before the factory gate (or ever before getting out of bed); short trips to taverns, hospitals, and morgues; and clipped and clumsy phrases either worn to cliches or twisted to fresh, shocking meanings. Nor isit a neighbourhood of elms and ice cream trucks; rather, it’s a collection of boarded-up homes with garbage-bag windowpanes, burnt-out fire hybrants, and the-flung:wildcorpses of dogs. Poverty is not dinner for two at a posh restaurant: It is the toothless grimace of an old age pensioner eating cat food in her lonesome apartment. It is not iustice in court,but three peace

officers beating a drunkard to a bloody pulp . It is not an offer of admission to a university, but sieges by bill collectors and constant fear in the night. Poverty is not Christmas, but the Crucifixion; not Porter’s Vertical Mosaic, but Dante’s Inferno. It is the ever-lengthening soupline at the Scott Mission in Toronto this year, npt 1932. It is politics descended to bestiality; hopelessness; the haggard face of a sixteen-year-old looking for work;and doom realized ina stock exchange report. It is the disabled, the elderly, the uneducated and unskilled woman or minority; in short it is a freak show; for, to be poor is to be abnormal (if one falls for the bourgeois myths mentioned earlier. Poverty is not chic. Let us conclude where we started: Poverty is a natural purgatory that most of us will never have toenterisavein its most abstract manifestations), and for this good fortune, we must give thanks to God and count our pennies,-if not ourblessings, before falling asleep each night. -

If you-enjoyed that little pun, you probably won’t have any problem with cryptic definition clues: A cryptic definition clue is one in which there is no indicator and. no true definition.

Theincentive for completing the crossword, by the way, is a set of prizes. There are three paperbacks of interest to p‘uzzle solvers that were specially bought for this ‘exam’; Three winners will be drawn at random (Student’s distribution?) from the complete (or almost complete) crosswords submitted.‘Good luck!

The word POLITICIAN has only 10 letters and would not be very cryptic. But if you think of ‘current’ to mean ‘electric current’ rather than‘contemporary’, you’ll arriveat ELECTRICIAN, the answer. Other tricky words to watch out for are ‘fare’(referring to a meal instead of a price), the phrase ‘of course’ (which could refer to a course of a meal, or even golf), and the word ‘main’ (used instead of ‘the sea’). For example: .

This clue is looking for a course of a meal, and DESSERT is the answer. Another trick found in cryptic definxtion clues is-that of the invented meaning. For example, a driver is something. that drives, and a beater is somethingthat beats. So wouldn’t aflower be something that flows? (i.e. a river). With this trick, an African flow& might be the Nile. These invented words will typically be (like ‘flower’ to mean the Nile, or’tower’to-be a of the ‘ _er’type tugboat). Sometimes they’ll be w,ords with the prefix ‘re-’ (like ‘refuse: for ‘unite again’). r ’ ‘A-third trick is”to refer’td actual words in the clue without letting on that that is what is being done. For instance: ’

by NancyM. Drost The second Forum for Student Writers took place on campus last week. A good variety of creative writing was presented by published andunpublished writers - six in all; however, allwere equally appreciated. for their individuality and unique talents. Dona Massel, an undergraduate English student, was the first to read from her new manuscript about a Norwe&n settlement in Northern Ontario. The poems ranged in subject mat@ from an intense poem about a training pilot who crashes to a reminiscent poem about a little girl. Many of Massel’s poems involved audience participation. She had us singing along with one of her poems. She also used sound effects like clapping atid imitating the’noise of a motor. This p@icipatory aspect made the poems come alive fbr the audience and allowed the listeners to enter into her world. The highlight of Allison Knight’s reading was her short story about a child’s encounter with a dragon from another planet. Allison, an uhdergraduate English student, introduced the workas a children’s story. But, of course, adults love children’s stories just as much as children, so we escaped into her fantasyworldwith pleasure. The unique aspect of the story is that the child and the dragon are the same age and have similar problems with their parents and friends. It was a heart warming story and although the possibility of a reunion between the two remained questionable, the audience wished eternal ’ friendship for the boy and the dragon. Jana Karger, \ an undergraduate English student, has just recently begun to write.’ Her poetmrycan be described as beautifully delicate. In, for example, her poem about the moon, she brings to mind all the fragility of the scene with viti,d and subdued images. Jana also had a poem requiring two readers, which was an interesting variation. The highlight of Jana’s reading was her story about the emotions of children. It was a ~moving story, with a lot of appeal for general audiences, which is an attractive characteristic of Jana’s stories. George Elliott Clarke, an undergraduate English student, is known for poetry which isvery ’ sound-oriented. He experiments with word combinations, alliteration and assonance. His ’ poem “Aviary” is an example of his own “symbolic” form - seven lines of seven syllables. .He has depicted the Waterloo community through a poem called “Colin De’Ath’s Waterloo” which exemplifies his style. George concluded his reading with a poem about his native Nova Scotia - truly unique. Jeff Ardron, an Integrated Studies student, read three of his poems. One was told in the voice of Abel; brother of Cain, and was a fascinating study of the biblical story. Jeff s last poem, called “Golden Adventure”, is a special poem for Remembrance Day which contrasts the propagandist glorification df war with its horrible rqality. Its vivid images were impressed on all those present. Wayne Hughes, a former Integrated Studies student, entertained us with a marvelously funny story about a man with an obsession for toilets. The protagonist gets most of his serious thinking done on the toilet and enjoys his solitude, except, of course, when he meets his wife sitting on the - throne. Wayne’s imagination never ceases to amaze! The Fortim for Student Wiiters was a tremendous success which proves that UW has a great deal of writing talent. The poetry on these two pages are samples of these six writers la$ week. This term it seems the UW campus has experienced a new enthusiasm for Creative ~Writing.The English Sbciety has brought to us p;iets Michael Ondaatje -and Gwen MacEwen,

Appearing Tonight! Friday, December 3rd

by don button Doug Bennett is disproving the convention that successful rock singers must be longhaired, angular men with as little intelligence as possible. The Slugs laugh at those who think that Canadian bands must be inferior to-their American or British counterparts. So when you sit down to watch Doug and the Slugs perform, be prepared for an interesting sight - six men producing music of a level that prompted one member of the audience to inquire, “Are you sure these guys are Canadian?” Oh, and another thing - if you are sitting down to watch Doug and the Slugs perform, be prepared to get up very quickly. The majority of the audience was up clapping and dancing for most of the second and last set, last week at the Coronet’s centre stage, and I was left with the feeling that, hadit beenanyothercitynorth of the Mexican border, they would have been up long before that. With the combination of good, solid music, penetrating, clean vocals, and Doug Bennett’s teasing witticisms, it was not long before the Coronet crowd realized the talent before them. “You either come and like us,” quipped Bennett, “or get lost and leave. We don’t care, just don’t ask for your money back.” Nobody asked for their money back, and while there were a few who got lost, most left with a reborn faith in the Canadian music scene and. the ability of a band in Canada to survive while playing their own music, their way. “We’ll listen to anybody”, admitted Bennett, “but the music is us. We don’t do anything different for the American tastes.” For Bennett, the success of the band’s first album came as a bit of a surprise. “I left Toronto in the early 70’s because I was bored. I wound up in Vancouver doing graphic arts and music on the side. The music started taking up more and more time and now. . . Well, as long as it keeps working, we’ll be together. When it no longer works, we’ll stop.” The Slugs have been together since day one, ‘which probably explains why they now play so well together.‘ Musical talent abounds in the band, and they are capable of playing anything from rock, to reggae, to rhythm and blues.

The crowd at the Coronet were treated to z sampling of all three, as well as a touch of new wave. “We’re taking a bit of what we like frorr new wave, and adding a touch of warmth,’ explained Bennett. When asked if. this was the direction the band was taking on their new album scheduled for release in January, Bennet declined to comment, saying, “If we tell peopk what’s on it, they won’t buy it.” Judging from the reaction of the Corone. crowd, people certainly will buy it, though no’ in time for Christmas. “We are missing the Christmas trade, but we are cashing in on al those people who want to trade gifts o Liberace’s Greatest Hits for something good.’ Before coming out for an encore, Doug ant the Slugs played Forget about Me to end the last set. Perhaps that was-Doug Bennett’s las witticism for the night; it is not likely tha Kitchener will soon forget Doug and the Slugs And should the band return as promised, I’n sure most of the crowd will be back - I know will.

Athena’s Basketball: things are looking

THIS ISN’T A TEST..,

by Donald Duench _ Imprint staff Unbeknownst to most people, there are two first-class Waterloo basketball teams. The Warriors get most of the attention, based on the possibility that a glass backboard could be broken to bits by a thunderous dunk, among other things. The Athenas find themselves playing before only a handful of spectators at each game, despite being one of the best teams in the OWIAA at this point in the season. Eastern Michigan University’s Hurons provided the opposition in an exhibition game Saturday against the Athenas at the PAC. With three girls over six feet (I .8288 m.) tali, EMU held an obvious height advantage over the Athenas. Starting Huron guard Sharon Brown was on the receiving end of their baseball-type passes off rebounds to put in layup after layup. A combination of EMU foul trouble and Athena persistence (especially by Patti Edwards) kept the score close. Waterloo was down 37-26 at the half. The final twenty minutes of the contest saw a better offensive output by both squads. While the Athenas finally got some perimeter shooting to work, EMU was able to both stay out of foul trouble, and also get a player open for the easy shot quite often. The play was both good and fast, ending with the Hurons on top, 8 l-60. Four of the nine Huron players ended in double figures point-wise. Starting centre Jennifer Litomisky led with 21, including

perfect field goal shooting. She was followed by Brown and forward Jane Shaffer at 16, and Carla Campbell with 10. Athena Patti Edwards led all competitors with 24 points on 12 field goals. EMU coach Kathy Hart was impressed with the quality of play shown by both clubs. “The Canadian schools are improving, but not equal to us as yet.” She has many young players to work With, and is looking forward to a good 28 game season in her league. Hart paused to praise Edwards, whom she views as “an excellent shooter, and a great player. She took onallfive of us and beat us.” I Sally Kemp, the Athena’s mentor, thought her team played “really well. EMU’s a pretty strong team. We were respectable, and played all our players.” Waterloo will be losing the services of guard Heather Tyler for the rest of the season. Tyler. a 2A Chem. Eng. student, is about to enter the winter work term. Coach Kemp states that “she’s been a big help to us. She’s played exceptiotial ball. Hopefully, Jennifer Russell will fill the hole.” The Athenas take their 3-l regular season record into the Christmas holiday period. They’ll get back intozsGjjon with an exhibition game against California State January 26th, and the Athena Invitational,’ to be held January 7th and 8th. Both events are to be held in the PAC.

AthenasjZoat / right to the top by Terry Bolton Imprint staff Last weekend was quite busy for the Waterloo swim teams. The Warriors had a meet in Toronto last Friday night, then came back to Waterloo for another meet Saturday afternoon. The Athenas also swam on Saturday, except they were in Hamilton The meet held at U of T was the OUAA Invitational. The motive behind this type of meet (an invitational) is to givt swimmers a chance to swim the events they want (as opposed tc the ones the coaches want them to swim), and to qualify for the CIAU’s. The result was a meet that was not too well organized U of T head coach Bryon McDonald kept changing the event around to suit his own purposes. One rival coach was heard tl comment that everything would have run smoother if Bryonjus asked everybody what they wanted to swim next. Typical U of efficiency. Another reason for general lack of enthusiasm was that n total points were kept. That means that there were no overa winners or losers. All in all it was a fairly dead meet. The only event winner for Waterloo was Joe Murray in the 5 metre freestyle. This surprised everyone, including the Waterlo coaches. Other Warrior swimmers swam well enough to get speci; mention from head coach Dave Heinbuch. They are Dou Funnel1 (100 free and 200 backstroke), Gerry DeLeeuw (IC butterfly and 100 back), Sandor Mathe (100 fly and 100 free Trevor Wilcox (100 free) and Terry Bolton (1500 free - “0 mile”).

Even though the final score was 61-34 fc Dalhousie, the meet was a lot closer than the score indicate Both relays were extremely close and could have gone either wa! but Dalhousie won both. Most of the other races were close 2 well. Of the nine individual events, Waterloo captured four ofthen Peter Kornelson led the way winning both the 100 and 200 yar frees (U of T’s pool is in metres, U of W’s is in yards).

When asked to comment on the Warrior’s performanc Heinbuch replied that they were “fairly good results for the fir back to back meets of the season.” Meanwhile, back in Hamilton, the Athenas were displayir exceptional spirit. Thoughagain no points were tallied (it was tl McMaster Invitational), Waterloo did look sharp. Event winners were Lynn Marshall (200 & 400 free and 2( individual medley) and Kelly Neuber (100 free).

.( Variety of services offered members - by Julie George Imprint staff The. Canadian Federation of StudentsServices (CFS-S) will be one of the most important factors in determining the success of . CFS in general. Though the lobbying abilities of CFS are vitally important in these times of 6 and 5, CFS-S is the most visible and tangible side of the organization. So what are the services offered by CFS-S? A brief summary of existing, as well as proposed, services. follows.

Travel CUTS was one of the only travel agencies in Canada that did well this past year, earning substantially more income and higher commmission than had been expected. CUTS also refunded its customers’ deposits onflights offered by Laker and Sunflight when those companies went bankrupt. A wholly-owned subsidiary of CFS-S, Travel CUTS has all the regular services of a travel agency, as well as runningcharterflights to a number of Canadian cities. CUTS offices are located on some campuses across Canada, ’ the newest offices being at McGill and the University of Victoria. When Imprint asked Andy Knight, Ontario’s representative on theexecutive Board of CFS-S, whether he thought a CUTS office at f University of Waterloo would be feasible, he replied that he thought Waterloo would . provide a good market. The Federation of Students would have to approach CFS-S with a request for such an office, demonstration the’ existence of a decent size market. I The liquidity of CUTS is weak but CUTS has been reducing the entire CFS-S deficit with . its available income. CUTS is currently the most important service offered by CFS because CUTS is the only one that is not operating at a loss.

Youthsaver

a Youthsaver card which they can then present for discounts at stores participating, in the program. Stores are recruited to the p.rogram by students who receive a four dollar commission for every store that signs a contract to give the discounts. The Board is workingondevelopingasystem-for-developing a more equitable system of commission since some discount contracts are obviously worth more to students; for instance, if the products are necessary for students or if the’store is a large chain. I Every year a guide to all the stores in Canada participating in the program, called Youthsaver NationalStudent Discount Guide, is published by CFS-S. Youthsaver is building on a discount program.operated through ISIC (International Student Identification Card); the present Youthsaver card can be presented for a free ISIC card which can be used for discounts here and overseas. CFS-S, however, decided to create a separate discount program because ISIC refuses to issuecards to part-time students, a significant constituency group of CFS.

SWAP SWAP’s (Student Work Abroad Program) biggest problem is with the Canadian Immigration Department, according to *David Jonas, executive director of CFS-S. Because the department makes it extremely difficult for foreign students to come here and work, only a limited’ number of Canadian students are welcomed by the exchange countries; fewer countries want to trade students with Canada because the exchange is so limited. SWAP facilitates students working in Britain, Ireland. New Zealand, or Belgium a period between two and six months, by providing work permits. Students are either guaranteed a firm job.offer or assisted in a job search, depending on which country is involved. The hours per week and the pay all vary again depending upon in which country the participants are working. All students are given a couple of nights orientation accommodation, as well as other support services.

According to a report on Canadian student discounts, “YOUTHSAVER” has given the , Canadian student discount program a whole new image. It is a name retailers will come to recognize instantly as that of the only I) nationwide system of student discounts.” Canadian Programming Services However, many students do not want to be The Canadian Programming Services associated with the name, partly because the (CPS) ran a deficit of $10,000 this year, image of youth does not fit so many students; according to Terry Palmer, CFS-S Treasurer. also, the brochures introducing the program He added that any business is expected to lose described students as “the last leisure class.” money in the first couple of years, and he Having students thought of as a leisure class expects CPS to be generating a profit by its does not help the political wing of CFS when third year of operation. lobbying for- better student aid programs, CPS-is a speakers bureau, presented in its complained several delegates at the recent CFS brochure as an alternative to expensive conference.

Proposed

Serviceb

“How about some services that aren’t so consumer oriented, where you don’t have to pay something to get the benefit of the services?” asked Charlie Dobbin (Guelph) at the Victoria conference. As she pointed out, all of the existing services of CFS-S do require that students-buy something - a plane ticket or products of a store participating in Youthsaver - in order to save money. The proposed services are getting away from the consumer orientation, towards providing more, information dissemination kinds of services. As well, the proposed services will have to be more evenly available to all members of CFS. The current services favour thexinstitutions in large major cities, because they have more stores to subscribe to the discount program and- because CUTS’s charter flights naturally, favours those institutions near major airports. These are also the institutions that are generally richer and therefore have less of a need-for other CFS services.
