Winter term in review

All tImnew& by Peter Brown Imprint staff

January 1990 Sean Conway, provincial Minister of Colleges and Universities, announced an eight per cent hike .in university tuition for the 1990-91 academic year, as well as an identical increase in funding gI;ants, albeit for neti ‘programs rather than for support of existing ones. This translates into just a 2.5 percent jump for UW, just half of annual inflation. Both administrators end stud&t groups disagreed with the increase. - The UW Senate reviewed a report on the status of women showing that &presentati& of women on campus hasdch&ged little since 1978. The most striking statistics were numbers of full time faculty positions, with women making up between 26.9 percent (HKLS) and I.7 percent (Engineering). - The debate surrounding the Canadian Federation of Studints was renewed as the UW Feds planned a membership referendum in conjunction with February’s executive elections. The outcome of this vote would determine whether students would pay an extra two bucks per term so that UW can be a full member in the student lobbying group* - The faculty of Human Kinetics and Leisure Studies (HKLS) announced a name change to Applied Health Studies (AHS),

- Ontario NDP leader Bob Rae went toe to toe against Prof. John Ridpath on the topic of “Capitalism vs Socialism: Which is the moral system?” Left-winger Rae scored an emotional victory. - Long-time student representative Tim Jackson was elected as the chairperson of the Ontario Federation of Students, much to the relief of all Imprint photographers+ Last year, he lost. - UW president Doug Wright spoke to his “people” in a socalled state of the university address, followed by a question and answer period.

-Lewis celebrates Earth Day early

Lewis, statmg that he has long been fascinated by the tension between economic development and environmentalism, began in familiar territory: the UnitedNations, where he witnessed Norwegian Prime Minister Bruntland’s tabling of the report

make development sustainable to ensure it meets the needs of the present wjthout Compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” However, Lewis pointed out that one of the most challenging and important quests facing environmentalists since 1987 is to find a workable, practical definition of sustainable development and give it substance, urging UW’s Environment,al Studies students specifically to take a tough look at sustainable development. Before any constructive programs or actions can be considered, we must know what exactly it is that we’re discussing, and indeed. there are manv who see the expression as a &ntradiction in terms: “Increasin@ly, there. are large numbers of skeptics who think the phrase was a mistake from the outset: as long as you have the yard ‘development’ in a definitibn of the environment, you’ve had it.

In fact, that only makes me consistent with athe political leadership of this country.” From that point, the former Canadian Ambassador to the United Nations and Canada’s leading proponent of social democracy, presented by UW’s School of Urban and Regional Planning as part of the first Pragma Council, regaled a willing audience with his passionate and informed views of the environment, his vision for the future of the globe, and the eloquence for which Lewis is renowned. Specifically, Lewis addressed the thorny and oftdisputed issue of sustainable development;‘one

Western consumerism

is main culprit

reading this, David Nichol?) * “I’m not here to pronounce judgment,” Lewis concluded an this point. “1 am here merely to say the debate is now raging, and it’s a fascinating debate. And for students of urban and environmental planning, this desperate struggle togive substance to tension bet ween development and the environment and to see what it means in terms of intelligent academic discussion.” The other big development since Bruntland’s 1987 address, according to Lewis, has been the way climate change-global warming specifically-has become a focus of concern in the international community at all levels. “I have heard Mme Bruntland say that the effect8 of climate change, if they go unchecked, will be worse than a nuclear war. And there aren’t people up in arms after.ward accusing her of exaggeration or hyperbole: most of the world’s scientists concerned by climate change share her view.” . But in spite of the alarmingly laissez-faire policies many western governments adopt where the environment is concerned, Lewis feels heartened and excited by the amount of activity and dialogue within the academic, scientific, public, and even political forums on global warming, Since the landmark conference on the changing climate held in Toronto in June of 1988, there have been conferences in Washington (1988) and

Cairo (1989), endless resolutions passed by the General Assembly of the UN, andtheestablishment of an intergovernmental panel with representatives from over sixty countries attempting to draft standards, targets, and conventions regarding greenhouse emissions-the panel is due to release its report in August of this year. Lewis took great pains to stress the gravity of global warming, chronicling the potentially catastrophic fallout if the emission of greenhouse gases is not significantly curtailed over the next’twenty to thirty years. The possible flooding of such low-lying coastal regions as Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, The Netherlands, Australia, and The Maldive Islands could mean the emergence of up to fifty million environmental refugees. U.S. agricultural production has significantly dropped, a trend that could continue in Cgnada and the Soviet Union with terrifying consequecces for the developing world’s underfed. Also, concomitant with the destruction of rain forests is’desertification, a phenomenon which has already rendered the 1980’s a “lost decade for Africa. And if Africa continues in a state of impoverishment, it will be a lost generation. The prospect that climate change should further exacerbate the assault on the human condition is almost more than one can contemplate, But in scientific terms, it seems utterly likely.” “But,” he continued, “the fascinating thing is that we all know

the answers. There is no mystery to it. We have to stop the emissions of carbon into the atmosphere and the dramatic regeneration of forests across the earth is absolutely necessary.” The western wor’ld has been the-main culprit in effecting the atmospheric crisis, but as the widely documented destruction of rain forests in South America and Indonesia suggests, collaboration with the developing world is crucial if current trends are to be arrested or reversed. However, Lewis cites Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe’s response to Bruntland’s report at the UN a’s perhaps the m’ost succinct statement of the developing world’s position on sustainable development: if the industrialized world is moved to act on acid rain, the greenhouse effect, etc., fine, but they cannot count on the developing world’s active participation-until the western world is prepared t.0 deal with poverty, the developing world is not prepared to deal with theenvironment. “It wasn’t a threat: it was simply an explicit putting of a position which all developing countries must necessarily embrace. As deeply as they may be committed to economic development that is compatible with the environment, they are not prepared to have conditions dictated to them which will further exacerbate the conditions of their people, and they are not prepared to be told they haveI to

preserve the environment when the only way their people can live is by farming the land which has already been overfarmed, cutting down trees which can barely survive, or desperately attempting to flee the encroachment of the desertification which is destroying so much of, the developing world.”. In” other words, “a world where poverty is endemic will always be prone to environmental catastrophes.” Lewis sees the onus as clearly being on the western world to relieve the third world’s debt load before its cooperation can be expected. Figures obtained from the World Bank show that “the developing world is paying out 50 billion dollars more in interest to the wealthiest nations on earth than they take in annually. It’s an obscenity almost beyond expression. Their debt load is not the fault of the societies themselves, but the fault, I am willing to argue, of the insensitivity of the developed world. If there is no transfer of resources or technology, then you cannot ask the developing world to collaborate in defense of environment.” While Canadians can be proud of the initiatives taken by our federal and provincial governments to ameliorate environmental destruction in many respects’ Lewis is dismayed by the lack of commitment our government has shown in following up on its resolutions. Canadian environmental standards, such as the 1988 proposal to reduce the combustion of fos-

sil fuels by 20 per cent by the year ZOOS, were regarded by some as benchmarks by which other nations would measure their environmental progress, but Canada’s environment ministers gathered in August 1989 “to discuss the implementation of the recommendations and they decide not to do it. They need more research, not unlike Reagan’s response every time he was pressed on the acid rain issue, It’s positively insufferable,” “But much worse was this astonishingly simple-minded paper put out by a fellow I quite like, tucien Bouchard, a framework for discussion on the environment. On page 5 they write, ‘In the process of burning fossil fuels, Canadians are the world’s fourth largest producers of carbon dioxide on a per capita basis.’ Now that rings an alarm. And it rings another alarm: the statistics are wrong. .In fact, Canada ranks second behind the U.S, That’s worrisome in an authoritative paper.” Furthermore, Canada has failed to make good on its promise of two years ago to open an environmental research centre in Winnipeg, and has fallen behind Norway, Sweden, The Netherlands, and Australia in terms of concrete environmental progress. Symptomatic is Canada’s seeming predilection for developing nuclear energy, still a huge environmental question mark, instead of pursuing research into safe, renewable energy sources.

Love at firs-t tackle byP&&CMSUI The Daily HeraId Brown university Providence, Rhode Island Four community members will remove themselves from the Brown’s single scene tomorrow afternoon by vowing in two separate ceremonies, to spend the rest of their lives with each other. These four individuals are married, however, not getting becausethey cannot legally do so. These four are lesbian women. Maj Bonnet ‘89 and Tara Simsak ‘91 will take part in a “commitment ceremony” at 230 pm. in Manning Chapel in which they will exchange rings and vows, The ceremony, which will not be performed by a religious leader, will be “short and sweet,” with friends singing to the couple. “It’s not the traditional wedding” Simsak said. “We’re dealing in uncharted territory here.” Angela Taylor ‘91 and Carolyn Robinson ‘88, who prefer to refer to their celebration as just a “ceremony,” will have Associate Pastor Corelyn Senn perform the ceremony at 3:00 pm. at the First Unitarian Church of Providence. “Unitarians pride themselves in being socially conscious,” Robinson said. During the ceremony, passages will be read from the Bible and Senn will say Benediction. The celebration conclude with a wine will ceremony. Bonnet, a high school basketball coach and aspiring writer from southern New Jersey, and Simsak, a psychology major from Denver, met on the rugby field and have been romantically involved for the past six

months.

“It was love at first tackle,” they said. They have chosen to marry now, in the middle of the school year, so that it will be easy for friends to attend the ceremony and the reception in the Brown Faculty Club. The couple took their honeymoon over spring break in Hawaii.

Simsak are walking down the street holding hands and a group of guys yells “Dykes!,” Simsak will yell back, ‘You betcha!” “You have to take it with a grain of salt,” Simsak said. Besides dealing with prejudice, Bonnet and Simsak, as well as Taylor and Robinson, have to deal with a

“Gay and lesbian couples cannot file joint income taxes, receive insurance policies a Or . . . retiebe credit .” , We’re not making a political statement,” Bonnet said. “we just love each other and want to spend the rest of our lives together.” The celebration will be attended by approximately 100 people, most of whom will be female members of the Brown community. “About twothirds of the people will be women,” Simsak said. Both Bonnet’s and Simsak’s parents are planning on attending as well as Bonnet’s two aunts, great uncle, brother and brother’s girlfriend. d Though both Simsak and Bonnet said every member of their families has a “different level of comfort” with the fact they are lesbians, they feel they have the support of their families. “People who don’t feel comfortable about it and who don’t understand it are still coming because they love us. That’s the great part,” Bonnet said. “My parents have been dealing with this homosexuality for a cou-

pie of yearsnow.” Bonnet and Simsak have approached the myriad problems facing them-in perspective and with a’ sense of humor. Bonnet said that if she and

In order to receive some of the rights which married heterosexual couples take for granted, both lesbian couples wiIl sign a Durable Power of Attorney. This legal document allows the couples to bill and make medical decisions for each other in the event of a serious injury or illness which renders one of them unable to make decisions. This document, however, only addresses a few of the problems. For instance, gay and lesbian couples cannot file joint income taxes, receive insurance policies or, in many cases, receive credit. “Carolyn works for Brown and I work for the state of Rhode Island ,” Taylor said. “I have better benefits than Carolyn, but I cannot give them to her.” Says Kris Renn, Brown’s student life coordinator for gay, lesbian and bisexual affairs, “There’s absolutely no legal recognition for homosexual ,parents. Akj the existing laws were written fur heterosexuals.”

Helpless Sometime last month, CBC decided to air the National/Journal before the 9:30 Kings/Oilers second round opener, so I ended up watching Barb Frum interview Premier of Nova Scotia John BuchI anan about his views on Meech. According to lohn, the country has three options if Meech is not ratified and Quebec (John’s pronunciation is cwee-bet] eventually separates. One, the country will somehow survive without it, two, the Atlantic provinces will form their own nation, or three, the Atlantic region will join the United States, assuming of course that they want them. Listening to Barbara trying to make a conversation and coming up with 5 minutes of inane babble, from a provincial Premier no less, I had an revelation similar to John Belushi’s in The Blues Brothers, when that ray of light hit him in the church, The reason that an incredibly large proportion of Canadians don’t have a clue about the Accord suddenly became clear. Whenever the government is going to force anything through the House of Clowns with their majority, and knows it will become law, they take out full page ads in newspapers, air television and radio commercials, and print up a @zillion non-recyclable pamphlets. Recent examples are Free Trade, the GST, and annual budgets. It is odd when a government seemingly so anxious to explain its policies to the ignorant masses suddenly clams up about Meech Lake. The Mob that is the Mulroneyites have chosen to let the press battle it out in innumerable endless editorials, comment pieces, and features rather than actually explain their version of it. Almost anyone who can

voters read knows the essential purpose of Meech Lake, but the government has neglected to make the slightest attempt at informing the public about the contentious clauses in the deal. Even when the Prime Minister flashed his grin at the nation in a supposed television address to the nation, we received little more than a history lesson and reassurances that Meech was the right thing. When they announced the GST and Free Trade, an information hotline was set (l-800-267-6620 for the GST, 8:30-500 weekdays) and. twelve pounds of books and pamphlets were sent to you if you wanted. It is upsetting that the government has let this important issue be debated ad nauseam in the media by bureaucrats and other self-proclaimed authorities. Perhaps I’m too young, but I cannot recall any other policy that has been so controversial and the government has made no realistic attempt to promote any possible benefits of it to the voters. Even with countless intellectuals explaining the pros and cons daily in the newspapers, I would doubt that 5% of the population could sustain a Meech Lake Debate for longer than thirty-six or thirty-seven seconds, Mr. Gallup has given the Tories a fairly good indication of this problem, but the government doesn’t give a shit,, except upon the voters, June 23rd will come, and so will the 24th, It will pass or die, We are powerless. Sit and watch and wait. That is the role imposed upon this generation of voters,

Unfortunately, your situation is not unique. The landlord is correct in that yo-J should have given at leastsixty dayswritten notice to terminate your tenancy. The landlord could move against you in Small Claims Court by suing you for $630.You could attempt to dis-

pute the claim by claiming damagesfor the landlord’s failure to comply with the Landlord and Tenant Act. Unfortunately, it would have been better if you would have’ brought a Repairs Application against the landlord while in possession.By filing a Dispute and a counter claim to a potential Small Claims Court action, you will have the right to argue for compensation for the lessening of the enjoyment to your premises due to the landlord’s failure to do the necessary repairs. It is probably unlikely that you will get a fuI1set off

of $630 against a landlord’s claim for rent. If you are able to convince the sitting judge that your use of the property was severely curtailed by the needed repairs, there is a strong likelihood that the landlord’s claim would be reduced.

perty Standards By-Law officer, you should

attempt to tie pictures of the areasthat need repair, These photographs could be quite useful in court to convince a sitting judge that the landlord is not complying with the Landlord and Tenant Act. We still suggest direct contacts with the lan-

dlord prior to going to court since it will enhance better landlord and tenant relationships if the parties can talk to each other and solve mutual problems.

A chowderhead writes To the editor,

I generally find J. Hagey’s asinine comments too laughable to warrant comment, but his “Freddy Awards” in the March 30 Imprint really ticked me off. I must be a “chowder head” too becauseI completely support the “anally retentive stunt” to sto the university library’s subscription to PIay& y. I spoke to Bruce MacNeil (x2112) at the library and he said the reason the library subscribed to Playboy was it represented “good literary writing.” C’mon Bruce, we stopped buying the line ‘1 buy it for the articles” a long time ago! I’m sure the guys who used to cut out the pictures from the magazine (when the library subscribed to it in its paper version) were appreciating Playhosl’s“good literary writing.” I’m sure that when the move to go to microfiche was made, the choice to go to colour (five times more expensive than than black and white per MacNeiI) was made in order to enhance the the magazine’s “good literary writing+” Yeah, I bet the ati& and intewkws look reaIly hot in colour. But now it’s only on black and white microfiche so I’m supposed to chill out. “Good literary writing” (and that’s debatable) does not compensate for the sexism which runs rampant in Playboy. Colour or not, a magazine which features nude women laying around in sexualIy suggestive poses and come-get-mepouts is sexuallydegradingI see no place at a university library for a magazine which depicts wotien as sex objec& as“entertainment for men”1 wonder what the reaction would be if the library subscribed to a magazine that read ‘Entertainment for Whites” and was replete with racist images of a particular group?

ply catering to sexist macho maintenance men who buy the tools. I guessit has nothing to do with the fact that the company is located in Ridgeway,Ohio (look, there’sthat silly “d.” Imagine that!). Well, it looks like we’re going to have to blame the founding fathers of Ridgeway, Ohio for the name of our forever “Ridgid TOOL”Those sexist bastards! How could they, with a clear conscience, name their town “Ridgeway?” Couldn’t they seethe obvious connotations and consequences of their actions? ,Istrongly agreethat sexismis an intolerable thing. its major cause undoubtedly is ignorance. The vast majority do not propagate sexism knowingly or do not understand the damage it can cause.

The ignorance that needs to be addressed in this “Ridgid Tool” issue (or non-issue) is concerning the origin and meaning of the name.1 hope EngSoc takes the time and has the “genitalia” to do waht’s necessary; to educate the public on the “Ridgid Tool”‘s origin and to restore its proper name. We must refrain from senselessacts like this one and must not treat sexism as a taboo where every witchhunt is tolerated. T&e a dqep breath and put the torches away. hrren Becker Chem Eng ‘88

Simple statement - anyone who requiresuse of thesechemicalsto enjoy themselvesis a thoroughly uselesshuman being. It is so easyto have a great time without intoxicants.I avoid hangovers, alcohol poisoning, overdosing, looking like an idiot, losing control, bad breath, falling asleep, throwing up (wow - must be fun!), running out of money, and not being able to drive home. It’s pretty sad watching a party die becausethe alcohol has run out (“Oh man, it’s finished - party’s ovei’). Why is alcohol required at everything?

ELECTION COMMITTEE

SCIENCE

UW Information and Public Affairs Many Ontario cabinet ministers and backbenchers can expect calls from their local university representatives this spring as the Liberal government prepares to unveil its budget. Billed as “spring lobbying activities” by the Council of Ontario Universities, the focus will be on oneon-one meetings with politicians intended to express the 16 universities’sense of emergency concerning recent provincial funding announcements for post-secondary education. As well, university reps want to voice concern about further repercussions of the federal budget’s planned cap on transfer payments to the provinces for social services, including education. Also high on the agenda is the gathering of documentation by each university, illustrating the particular problems each is experiencing as they attempt to cope with everdwindling support for base operating budgets. Figures gathered by the universities in the wake of recent provincial funding announcements show that actual grants for operating expenses in 1990-91 will rise by around three percent, still well below inflation. COU also plans to devote an entire issue of its newsletter 7%~ Ufli\&ties lirpc7n to the accumulative effects of the financial crisis. It will be distributed in the first week of April. Key to the lobbying efforts are the with the provincial meetings treasurer, senior cabinet members, local MMPs, and opposition members. Universities are being asked to

draft a resolution for consideration by boards of governors along the theme “we can’t do the job with funds available.” Local newspaper editorial boards will also be approached under the theme that there is genuine crisis and that support is needed to help communities and taxpayers understand what is going on. For the long ten-n, university .executive heads will meet after the budget to evaluate its implications, and what can be done to make postsecondary education a key issue in the anticipated provincial election. UW will cooperate in several ways, provost Dr, Alan George said. Material specific to this university is being gathered which illustrates some of the areas in which it is being hit the hardest by the financial crisis. Among the most serious problems, George said, are the faculty renewal and pressure on base operating budgets. Faculty renewal is a serious problem since many of Waterloo’s professors, hired in the late 1960s and early 197Os, are marching to retirement together in the next century. And it will be extremely difficult and costly to replace them because of market forces, including private industry competition and the needs of other universities to renew faculties. Operating b&get woes have only become worse in the last year because of added pressure brought by the health levy and pay equity. *Both policies were imposed on employers, including universities, by the province. Moreover, inflation continues to outstrip provincial operating grants by at least three or four percentage paints each year.

Researchers look for cause of Spina Bifida

Spring lobby by Martin Van Nierop

Imprint, Friday, May 4, 1990

WATERLOO, OntA novel research project at the University of Waterloo holds promise for revealing the mechanical causes of one of the most common human birth defects - spina bifida. A team of scientists, supported by graduate and undergraduate students, has received a grant of $25,320, renewable for a second year, from the EasterSeal Research Institute to tackle the spina bifida problem. Principal investigator, Dr. Wayne Bradland, civil engineering department, believes a major breakthrough will require collaboration by embryologists, medical doctors, and people with experience in image processing and computer graphics. He has gathered a multidisciplinary team including, UW embryologists, Drs. Morton Globus and swani Vethahny-Globus, several engineering and biology students, University of Manitoba biologist Dr. Richard Gordon, and neurosurgeon Dr. Roland0 Del Maestro, director of the Brain Research Laboratories at Victoria Hospital, University of Western

several years. . Dr. Del Maestro, the neurosurgeon on @e team, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in the ~hkaI aspectsof spina bifida and its

related disorders, One of the reasons why so littlehas been done in this field to date, is that it is not possible to tackle this problem solely from the viewpoint of one discipline. A muItidiscipIinary approach involving both engineers and bioIogis& is essentiaI to find answers to the questions raised Moreover,

these people with widely different training must understand, in detail, what the other is saying. It is hoped that a computer simulation of the type BrodIand is develop ing may provide new apprmches to understanding the causes of other types of birth defectsas well, including eye defects, cardiac defects, and cleft lip, which are also known to be causedby abnormal shapechanges in

sheetsof embryonic tissue. A further advantageof a computerbased model is that as more specific information becomesavailable about the cytoskeleton and shape changes associatedwith neuraI tube develop ment of human embryos, the technique can be used to model human

embryos and to perform computer experiments of the effects of specific

alterations in cell behavior. In addition, these techniques may be useful for understanding the behavior of cell sheets under conditions of wound healing and reconstructive surgery. This research is important because it represents a major, interdisciplinary initiative to understand the fundamental cause(s) of spina bifida. Its success would provide a solid foundation for possible action directed towards the prevention of this relatively c~ommon and severely debilitating birth defect.

This year, it was Vancouver’s latest sensation Spirit of the West, making a stop on March ,Z Add they did not disappoint the pbcked house, supplying a typically superb perform,ance: sometimes raucous, other times delicate, and

always riveting. The band members stuck to, their usual practice of trading instruments, with Linda McRae periodically handing her bass guitar to Hugh McMillan and John Mann taking\ over acoustic guitar from Geofelement in the glass and steel Fed Hall, the band still threw itself

into the show. The joint was charged with energy from start to finish as Spirit of the West concentrated on its latest LP Save This House, as well as 1988’s Labour Day, the record that finally broke through to central Canada. Spirit of the West is the kind of band that attracts a loyal and enthusiastic following, and it showed that night. The dance floor was a mass of swaying and jigging bodies, and the front onequarter of said floqr was the closest to Celtic slam-dancing you’ll find this side of a Pogues concert. The energy pulsed especially high during such rollicking drinking tunes as “The Crawl”, “Home for a Rest”, and “The Old Sod”, when lead singer John Ma n incited the crowd with a h wling, grimaced vocal delivery % d stomping, staggering trips around the stage. Sure, this band is fun to listen and dance to, but its politically left lyrics are the true source of their success with theuniversity crowd. Well, not exactly.

When asked if he ever got sick of listening to music McCulloch replied: “Yeah, everybody gets sick of everything they like, and then something happens,and the crowd is great, and then 1 think I really like this.” Halfway through the press conference, McCulloch became more jovial when someone mispronounced his name and called him Ian McLauchlan. “Who is Ian McLauchlan? What a classic,” chuckled McCulloch as he lit a cigarette. McCulloch also gave advice to aspiring musicians by instructing them to write good songs and use Graphic Hairspray.

but because of the sheer amount of the dramatis personae introduced. As an aid, the author includes a five page list of characters, and several family’ trees. They are almost indispensable as the novel draws to a close. Quincunx itself is a Latin word that translates loosely into “a thing that is made up of five part 3”. Hence the ‘five families, Palliser continues this division

They are all tied in to a century-old conspiiacy which binds five families in an all-out war: each trying to claim the inherit ante of a vast estate.

by John Hymars Imprint staff The weather is bad, the vision bleak, and the squalor overwhelming. Andthe plot? Thicker than proverbial ketchup. Yeah, Charles Pallister is no post-modernist. The Quincunx, being his first novel, has its flaws but they aren’t fatal enough to obscure the brilliance that went in to it. , The Quin’dunx is a stunning novel of immense proportions: both its physical size (781 pages) and its scope (the entirety of Victorian English society.) Basic&$ the book’s narrator, John Mellamphy, recounts his attempts to regain his rightful inheritance, It was denied him by a cabal’s legal acrobatics and criminal shenanigans.

in to the physical properties of the book; it is divided into five arts, with each part having five Eooks, and each book having five chapters. Each part is named after one of the families and deals, for the most part, with that specific family. But because of the relations of each family, all the families act in each part. As the-book is a period novel, Palliser is .very careful to spin the tale in Dickensian fashion/ Using such Victorian tricks as addressing the reader while simultaneously apologizing for the intrusion, Palliser well conjures the spirits of James and Dickens. But he does not become possessed by them: the plot itself is grand conspiracy; theory that fits along nicely with anything that Vague magazine has etter printed. And therein lies t’he interest of the book. It is a perfect statement on the human condition where money and power become paramount over everything, including blood relatives. What was true of Victorian society is doubly ue today, but substitute Big Busi ess for the families, and the eart i ‘s precious resources for the estate. The book is also great entertainment: a true page turner. His style is sweeping and beautiful, full of quaint English phrases and bizarre underclass slang. Though perhaps a might too long, with a slightly trite ending, it is a good read. But the book has one serious drawback that requires a giant leap of faith. Though John, as the narrator, almost consciously avoids giving his age, the action in it transpires from his birth to about his eighteenth birthday, with the bulk occurring around his ages of eight to thirteen. Often he advises his mother; and he does possess a keen legal mind. Such actions do not seem likely of a preteen. Perhaps living in such conditions forced him to grow up.fast, and.#erhaps in reality this happened. But I found myself having to willingly suspend my belief. o matter.

A capacity crowd was privileged Jastweek to see~0 hours of inspired dance. Billed “%!udolf Nureyev and Friends,” the performance provided a spectrum of selections, resulting in over two hours of ballet. While anticipation for the talented Tartar was high, the audience sat patiently throught the first piece,a pas de six from ikpoli. which featured the other dancers which are touring with Nureyev. While it was slow and not exactly an inspiring opening - marred with out of synch group work and a hesitancy of emotion - it provided an introduction to these dancers and their talents, not unlike the required figures in skating or gymnastics. More cleverly,it built a restlessness among the spectators;nay, a yearning for the Master. In the second piece,, SongsOf A Wayfarerhe came. In this piece an elderly man must come to terms with the aging process and the new limitations it puts upon him. Nureyev made this piece central to the whole performance. He himself is now fifty-three, old in many professions,but ancient in the grueling discipline of ballet. So convincing was his portrayal of an aging dancer who can barely keep up to the younger rnpn (played brilliantly by CharlesJude) and is at a lossof breath by the end, that half the crowd at intern&ion thought that, indeed, Nyeyev himself was only coasting on past achievements. But that was only the genius at work, for he wasnot the tired old,man at all in the second half of a night which called onto stagesuch diverse pieces as an adaption of Eugene Ionesco’s 75e Lason to 73EeMuur’s Pavane(a variation on the theme of

by Paul Done Imprint staff I’m sure that Fear of a Black Planet is not the third Public Enemy album that Chuck D visualized when he and Hank Shocklee created the concept 5 years ago. Like the boxer he so often resembles on the stage; jabbing, feinting, ducking, Chuck has rolled with the punches thrown at him by hostile media, and has used the turmoil and upheaval within and without Public Enemy as fresh fuel for the fire of creation. The great self-contradiction contained within the concept of Public Enemy finally came home to roost when a black Washington Times reporter, David Mills, published the interview with Professor Griff (ex-PE minister of imformation) which was the match to ignite their incendiary politics of exclusion. Excluding whites, the larger group which contains that subset known as “oppressors,” from the struggle for black empowerment is one thing. Excluding blacks women, gays, bourgeois, wannabe’s - just doesn’t fit. The ensuing explosion of antiPE resentment nearly ended the group for good: and, for a time, it seemed the group had disappeaTed. The group dragged itself

from the ashes though, and has begun the process of selfregeneration. Single-mindedness, extremism - they produce literary and artistic statements of immense power and certitude. Public Enemy’s second album, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, was such a statement. It’s crystalline purity of intent gave it a force which made less committed, more temperate groups sound shallow. Its force and perfection, however, was also its weakness: Nation’s singularity translated into intransigence. You either had to accept it or reject it. Discussion was impossible. In contrast, Fear of a Black Planet, magnificent title aside, is a far more human record: flawed, but more worthwhile for it. There.are still contradictions on this album, but they stem from the conscious process of ideological redefinition, not from dogma which is built upon a basic flaw. The black situation in America defies easy solutions, especially solutions which exclude segments of the black population. Chuck D is moving tentatively toward an inclusionary redefinition of black/black and black/white relations; a difficult but necessary process, The major t-hematic thrust of Fear is contained within three songs spread throughout the LP: “Pollywanacracka,” the title track and “Revolutionary Generation.” The first two discuss interracial relations - “POlly” an examination of blacks’ derision toward other blacks who are involved in interracial relationships. “Fear of a Black Planet” is a condemnation of white fear “I been wonderin’ why/Peoples livin’ in fear/Of my.

shade.” Chuck D attempts to reintegrate women into the PE sphere with “Revolutionary Generat ion” - “There’s been no justice for none of/my sisters.” Clearly, these are issues which contain far more gret area than, say, the anti-drug sentiments of “Night of the Living Bassheads,” or the reductionist antiestablishment sentiments of “Fight the Power.‘+ “Revolutionary Curiously, Generat ion” actually exposes more contradictions than it solves. For elsewhere, on “Burn, Hollywood, Burn,” guest rapper Ice Cube (ex of NWA) expresses a completely different attitude toward women “Ice Cube is down with the PE/now every single bitch wanna see me” . . I say what!?! Not only does the content of the songs address issues which have previously been excluded from the palate of themes, but likewise, Chuck varies the position from which he approaches the problem. Specifically, “Pollywanacracka” shows Chuck ditching his customary stentorian bark - and the authoritarianism it implies. Instead, he delivers the rap in an exaggeratedly funky drawl. For the most part, the rest of the album attacks the usual selection of easy targets: the police in “Anti-Nigger Machine” - “Instead of peace the police/just wanna wreck and flex:” the establishment in the guise of emergency services in “911 is -a Joke;” the system in “Who Stole the Soul” - “Intentional rape system, like we ain’t paid enough in this bitch/that’s why I dissed them,” The two tracks which have attracted the most attention so far have been the first single,‘

“Welcome to the Teriordome” and the Aids song “Meet the E that Killed Me.” Muchmusic established a new standard for boneheaded censorship in the name of decency when they banned the video for “Terrordome” - based upon owner Moses Znaimer’s reaction to the lines “Crucifixion ain’t no fiction/so-called chosen frozen/apology made to whoever pleases/still they got me like Jesus” and the accusations of gnt i-Semitism which resulted.

fragmentary samples which are used as linking devices are contained within the songs, rather than being glorified with phony song status. One especially successful exDeriment is thelinking of two separate songs, “AntiINigger Machine” and “Burn Hollywood Burn” with a phone conversation. These musical dissimilarity gives in to the cohesivenes created by the call. While It Takes a Nation of Mil“ens to Hold Us Back was a more

Let’s play world domination! Meet the G that Killed Me,” a chgin-reaction account of Aids acquisition, should certainly catch some flak from the usual anti-PE sources for its antihomosexual opening “Man to man/I don’t know if they can/from what I know/the parts don’t fit.” Chuck claims though that “G” stands for girl, not gay. Other rappers have followed Public Enemy into the exploration of thematically cant inuo us LPs, but just as the competition appears in their rear view mirrors, PE once again drops the hammer and pushes the art form ‘way beyond their competition. Fear is a huge album, clocking in at around 65 minutes, with 20 tracks, Unlike the 16-song Nation of Millions, there is no obvious filler on the new LP. The

perfect album than Fear of u Black Planet, it was so onlv because its narrowness of ideoiogy allowed it to be so0 Fear shows Chuck D to be escaping the strictures imposed by an exclusivist attitude toward black power. The reconciliation and inclusion of the previously excluded segments of the black population is a difficult process, but it is absolutely essential for the ideological growth of the group. Public Enemy may never make another album as near-perfect as Nation of Millions, but the kickin’ beats and rapid-fire samples of Fear still produce an immeasurable visceral charge. Combined with a growth in ideological complexity, I’d say that’s a fair enough trade.

Okay, Ill stop hedging: I like the album. Not a lot, but enough to say that it’s provided more than one moment ,of listening enjoyment. The title track is most enjoyable, a brooding story of alienation, and others, like the bluesy “Blind Lemon Sam,” are boss as well.

It’s not that you can’t make heaps of money off of being confused, far from it; Wayne and The Mission have sustainedtheir entire careerson the wayward confusion of the late 80s.

There were times I laughed, times I cried, but to be perfectly fair to those

of you who’ve already got God’s Own Medicine: these tunes are tired rehash. “Sea Of bve” and “Hungry as the Hunter” had me humming but a packagebookended by the wretched “Amelia” and ‘Lovely:” “I believe irr sunshine, I believe btit__ - __ --_. in friendship, . most of all . . . 1 believe in yoooOOU.” urp. As for the Delivemxe FP, the *‘free boxed set” packagingis flimsy, suspicious, and psychologically damaging - avoid it at all costs. this record is by no means great, it is promising. The weaknessesof this record lay mostly in the performances of Little and Gould, as I said before, most of the songs on this album have been recorded before, and, are a little stale. The biggest problem, though, lies in their style of harmonizing. Gould and Little cave beautiful voi&s but their voices sound exactly the same, and they always sing a third or a fifth apart. As a result, the vocals are very

Most of the material on their Nettwerk debut has already been recorded independently. As a result, songs that were innovative and fresh two years ago seem derivative in the age of the

tndigo Girls’and Julia Fordham. Not that Lava Hav are quite as mainstream as I&. Fordha&, i?s just

inevitable that LavaHay will be lost in an avalanche of folksy, female singers.Its too bad, becausealthough

On an up note, the songs themselvesare pretty good, more pop than folk and lyrically strong. Guest appearances from members of the Grapes of Wrath and the Water Walk don’t hurt either. The besttracks,“Fall With You”, “Wild Eyes”, and the _ single “Won’t Matter”, were produced by Steve (Faith No More) Berlin. B&n gives these tracks an edge that nothing else on the album can match. , If Lava Hay were to go into the studio right awaywith a bunch of hastily written tunes, and if they got SteveBerlin to produce it, they might end up with a record with some soul. If they didn’t harmonize so much their &ngs might really soar. If you take a chance and buy this record maybe they1 sell enough copies to make another, better album.

Football

by Rich Nichol

Imprint rtaff

The 1989 Rridiron Warriors. led by. the &zardry of CIAO Coach of the Year Dave “Tuffy” Knight, finally put the University of Waterloo back on the map in - Canadian varsity football. After five embarragsing years without a win, they knotched a 4-3 regular season record last season, before falling to the eventual national champions (the Western Mustangs) in the OUAA semi-finals, But the big question now is can Waterloo repeat their Cinderella story of one year ago? With Tuffy on the sidelines once again, football fanatics are keeping a sharp eye on the once taunted Warrior crew, With this in mind, over 50 players began spring camp -on April 20, determined to keep the winning momentum alive. “Attitudes were great and we got a lot accomplished,” said Knight. “We’ve had a chance this past week to look at,recruits who haven’t played at UW before, and I cati honestly say that competition for positions-is the best ever. We definitely have a lot more depth.” Returning players had the chance to shake the rust off their wheels and get back into the workout mode in preparation for the fall. “I was disappointed that we didn’t execute better and some injuries occurred that hurt us a bit,” added Knight. “Buf we made some great progress . We’re ahead of where we were at this point in the last two years.”

The departure of three-time All-Canadian Dave Shaw leaves a gaping hole in the backfield. That, combined with a couple of unfortunate injuries midway through camp, may force Knight to hunt for replacements in the fall. Veteran linebacker Paul Kilby injured his hip, but it is not too serious. Other returning players include Dave Brush, Bob Casey, Benoit Drouin, Jeff Lake, and Scott Wlodarcyzk. The arrival of some promising rookies should increase potential according to recruiting reports, LINEBACKERS:

role this fall.

OFFENSIVE LINE: This may become the deepest unit on the team. “Competition for positioss on the offensive line is going to be keen,” said Knight, All five starters from last year [Marshall Bingeman, Ross DePalma, Jeff Smith, Alan Rydman, and Terry Cantwell) will be returning, with several worthy players vying to dethrone. Bingeman, an OUAA all-star in 1989, enters his fifth and final year of eligibility with the Warriors. Cantwell received team Rookie of the Year honours last season. SPECIAL TEAMS: Place kicker Peter Tchir raised the eyebrows of several CFL scouts in 1989, and should repeat his performance in this, his draft year. As of yet, Waterloo has no punter and hopes to fill this position through the incoming freshman class. Last year, Lenart doubled as punter throughout most of the season.

Bhllet-like cornerback Paul Meikle may get the call to fill the shoes of Warrior graduate and first-team AllCanadian Richie Chen, who was drafted by the Calgary Stampeders earlier in the year. Dave Ropret and Marc Loisel are the other qualified candidates.

Overall, this year’s team showed great potential and expectations for the upcoming season.’ The Warrior freshmen begin practicing on August 22, with the veterans to follow suit two days later, Waterloo’s only exhibition game of 1990 will be September 8 against the Concordia Stingers in Montreal.

DEFENSIVE LINE: This squad showed great improvement through the course of the 1989 season. Included in that recognition is defensive end Len Willems who had an impressive rookie year. OUAA all-star and two-time Doug Shuh Award winner (outstanding UW lineman) Mike Lane will anchor the line at nose tackle, along with the always colourfu1 Mark Yarmel. Four other returning players will challenge for a position on the D-line.
