directors decide on SLB appeals by Peter Brown Imprint St& Last Sunday, November 4, the Feddon of Students’ Board of Directory hetd an emergency meeting to d-appeals by the YES and NO Committees for the Student L.fe Referendum taking place Mvember 21 and 22 Theappeals wereconcerning decisions of the Chief Returning Ofker Chris Burcsik. The most important appeal concerned the content of the NO Committee’s proposed statement to be included in the mailouts to offcampus students The Federation’s referendum policy allows each committee to write a one-page insert to go along with the referendum ballot. The board, represented by a fourmember quorum consisting of the non-executive members, upheld the CROs refusal of parts of the mailout written by NO committee chairperson Mike Abramczuk, including a statement that compared the handling of the student life proposal to the federal government’s treatment of free trade and the Goods and Services Tax. The proposed mailout criticized the decision-making process that produced the proposal, with no mention of the building itself. Abramczuk has since resigned for personal reasons (see related article on this page). The Board of Directors upheld appeals from the NO Committee on two other mailout items,

Run for Charity:

thus overturning decisions made by Burcsik. The YES Committee had asked that the Athletics department also bq allowed to include a one-page statement, but the Board upheld the CRO’s refusal of this as well. The three executive board members, President John VeUinga, VicePresident (Operations and Finance) Tess Sllwinski, and Vice-President (University Affairs) Kim Speers, were asked to leave the room because of their close involvement with the student life proposal. With all issues about the mailout settled, the envelopes were stuffed and sent the next day, and Burcsik was able to set the dates for the two open forums in the campus centre: Thursday, November 15 and Tuesday, November 20. Because of Imprint’s production schedule, we will be unable to provide coverage of either of these forums, so it is vital that students attend one of them in order to be well informed about this proposal.

No Go for LLNOy9 by Peter Bruwn Imprint staff NO Committee Chairperson Mike Abramczuk resigned Monday, only one day after achieving mixed success at an emergency Fed Board of Directors meeting. This means that the NO Committee no longer exists, and that the $1,000 campaign budget allotted to this committee cannot be used.

In a letter to the Chief Returning Officer Chris Burcsik, Abramczuk cites personal reasons for submitting his resignation, but also lists several problems he saw in the campaign procedures. “I have seen the EC (Election Committee) disregard the referendum

WPIRG calls by Peter Brown Imprint staff The Waterloo Public Interest Research Group (WPIRG) wiIl be holding elections for its sevenmember Board of Directors on November 29. Nominations opened yesterday, Thursday, November 8, and close Thursday, November 15. The election was forced by the resignation of President Alison Ariss, the third board member to resign in two months. Previously board members David Rolls and Hu Macdonald had resigned. These resignations leave four members on the board: Jill Proud, Mary Bender, Lisa Chapman, and Jose Botelho. “Our goal for this election is to make the organization more accountable to the student body,” Ariss said. “We’d like to see students from every faculty be involved with the decisionmaking process.” Board elections for the environmental and social research group were held last March, but all seven members were acclaimed. Ariss feels that a contested election would be more in the interests of WPIRG and the student

body, because that would candidates to run with a

require specific platform and gain a mandate. “We’ve been struggling all summer with refining the direction of the organization, and we haven’t been successful. Hopefully, this vote can raise awareness of WPIRG on campus and get a wider range of People involved.” Macdonald echoed her sen-

the importance of volunteers to WPIRG, saying how an individual can come in and mold the shape of the group. Each student pays $3.15 per term to WPIRG, and gets an immense resource base for research in return. WPIRG first alerted authorities to methyl mercury poisoning in a northern lake, have brought many timents. “WPIRG has accomplished a lot in the last 18 years,” he said, “and getting a mandate from the students, being able to say that we have the conscious support of a constituency of 16,000, would enable us to accomplish a lot more.” Macdonald stressed

inspirational speakers, such as Ralph Nader to campus, and have prompted recycling efforts across campus. And let’s not forget Lug-a-Mugs! It organizes -volunteers into work groups to study problems from pesticides and landfill sites to junk mail and third world exploitation. WPIRG urges students to come into the office in the General Services Complex (the building with the smoke stack beside the Davis Centre} room 123, or call 8849020 or university ext. 2578 for more information about the Nov. 29 election, nominations, or just about the organization itself.

rules in order to inhibit a void referendum,” Abrarnczuk said in his letter. He went on to express disap pointment with what he saw as the YES campaign’s disregard for referendum rules in order to increase its campaign period and also referendum rules which are incomplete. Abramczuk has protested the penalty given to the YES committee for advertisements in the Federation student handbook, saying that it was too lenient. Last week, Burcsik fined the YES side $100 from its campaign budget of $1,000, and awarded a free one-quarter page ad in Imprint to the NO side because the advertisements violated the Federation’s referendum policy. Because of the dissolution of the NO Committee, the NO ad will not appear in Imprint.

Clarification Last week, Imprint referred to Jonathan Hagey as a member of the NO Committee. Before press time, he had resigned from the committee, leaving only committee Chairperson Mike Abramczuk, who has since also resigned for personal reasons. Also, we stated that Chief Returning Officer Chris Burcsik had find the YES Committee $100 from its budget because of the committee’s violation of clause 23 of the referendum policy. The clause in question is actually clause 2-m and reads: “Committees will be charged full value for any campaign material with their name, logo, or other identifying mark on it unless said material was financed by another agency/This is the text of the clause in the policy, not a quote of Burcsik. Imprint printed the words “full value” in bold to emphasize them, and indicated this clearly. Feter Brown Nimvs Editor

minorities and tribal peoples, some whom face extinction in our time, and coping with the global refugee Crisis.”

Former leader of Amnesty International David Hinkley will appear at the Humanities Theatre. The Federation of Students’ Public Issues Board and the Mathematics Society are sponsoring the speech on Tuesday, November 18 at 8:OOpm on the subject of ‘Torture and Genocide: What is Our World Coming To?” Hinkley spent 17 years as a leader in Amnesty International involved in countless efforts to free or protect political prisoners and prisoners of conscience from torture or execution. These days, his main concern is to spread the human rights bug throughout the youth of North America. His presentation dealing with the abolition of torture, genocide, and human rights violations, reflects the cynicism and political trade-offs in intergovernmental bodies like the United Nations. The cynicism and the self-serving motives of people in power are the major obstacles in the human rights movement’s way, according to Hinkley.

The PIB and MathSoc urge you to come out and catch the human rights bug. Tickets for Hinkley’s Nov. 13 at BASS/ speech are available Ticket-master and at the Fed office (CC 235) for $5 for Feds and $7 for Non-Feds.

by Peter Brown Imprintstaff The Dana Porter Arts Library turns 25 years old this year, and library staff will’ celebrate on November 16. The first floor of the library will feature a display of photographs, artefacts, and memorabilia concerning the construction of the ten-storey sticture, while two displays depicting Dana Porter and giving details of its history will be on the second floor. It was all the way back in the fall of 1963 that the ground-breaking took place, and on Oct. 23, 1965, the University held a special convocation to observe the opening of the “Arts Library Building.” A dedication ceremony on Oct. 27, 1967 marked the renaming of the library to “Dana Porter.” By late spring of 1970, construction of all ten floors of the library was completed.

Copingwith the global refigee crizs Hinkley aims to build a constituency of concern especially among the youth of North America who have not yet developed the skepticism and defeatism which hampers the institutional leadership of the world. ‘The remaining agenda of the human rights movement,” says Hinkley, “includes mal&g torture as unthinkable as slavery, confronting geriocide, prdtecting threatened

New ideas for Fed Hall Thismanwantsyoutocatchthe human rights bug.

by Dave Thomson Imprint staff The Federation of Students held their first Students’ Council Meeting for November last Sunday at Fed Hall. Highlights of items discussed include an imprint fee increase and the remodelling of the second floor of FedHalI. Imprint made a proposal to CounciI to have the fee that students pay toward the student newspaper increased at the rate of inflation at the

beginning of each spring term. The motion was passed by council, but the Bnal decision will be made by the Uni~+ty’s bard of Governors. This fee is currently $3.65 per term. The Federation has a number of plans to renovate the upper floor of Fed Hall, which include the purchase of a shuffleboard table and a television, as well as moving video games and the dart boardsup&irs. The Feds have already purchased a four by eight foot slate-top billiard table, which will not be coin-operated, but instead operate on hourly charges. Vice-President (Opera&s and Finance) Tess Sliwinski said that there are plans to purchase two more billiard tables if the first one is used enough.

A new activities position will be created in the Federation office, but it has not yet been decided whether it will be full-time or not. The position will be either a third Vice-President position or simply an Activities Coordinator.

_ MsSliwinski also discussed the implications of new liquor legislation which would affect admission policies at the on-campus bars. Currently Fed Hall admits minors and the Bombshelter does not, but the new legislation would require the Bombshelter to admit minors. Sliwinskiwill be meeting with the bar managers shortly to discuss possible revtiping of the entrance &i&s. The Women’s Issues Board announced ‘that there will be a memorial at St. Jeromes’ Siegfried Hall on December 6 in remembrance of the Montreal women who were killed last year by Marc Lepine. The Public Issues Board is bringing a number of notable speakers to campus in the month of November including David Hinkley from Amnesty International on Nov. 13, Elijah Harper on Nov. 23, and former model Ann Simenton on Nov. 30. Student’s Council meets every three weeks at the Fed Hall Boardroom on Sundays at 4 pm. The next meeting is Nov. 25.

Tonguewaggin’ ViiagoriBandwagons are addictive. Banning mprht, slamming the Feds, stopping the bliss October&t Pageant are just a few of the nany “causes” with which individuals at this Jniversity have associated themselves. Just as mportant as why these causes have been upported/debased is the question of how ong these causes are supported/attacked. Bandwagons are rather tick&y structures lespite the work that goes into them. They lon’t just pop into existence - it takes a fair bit If hard work to build one. People don’t like waiting for them though, they usually start oiling on one as soon as they can, just so that

hey

can say they were there first.

Once these

Mndwagons have enough people, watch out. rhose things won’t hesitate to juggernaut lver anyone ignorant of their existence. But landwagons don’t last very long either. /Vhether it’s a legitimate cause or not, itll run 3ut of steam pretty soon, because you can mly stand being on one for a little while. After hat, it gets boring and you just want to get a. @ut you don’t want to walk, because whatever the bandwagon may be, it’s a vehide. Sometimes a vehicle for social change, mmetimes the voice of angry youth, sometimes a vehicle for the freedom of artistic expression or sometimes a way to make money. Also, it might just be a vehicle with no -on home like a complete unknown. So you could end up with a bunch of people going around in circles, or a bunch of people who just think they’re moving. Somebandwagonsare legitimate, but there we only a few which cannot be dismissed as watered down armchair philosophy. The rmeswhichcriticizetwentiethcenturymanas aproduct of a consumer society, slowly losing his individuality to the market forces commanded by fascist government organizations is one which has simply become overburdened by its own rhetoric. Such examinations are an attempt to dismiss problems which the world is simply tired of hearing (read Ethiopia, China, etc.). After having mailed their cheque for fifty dollars to the World Wildlife Fund, most bandwagoners think their debt to the globe’s eco-system has been payed off. Even the current trend toward increased environmental awareness has been manipulated by industry as a tool for increasing profit margins, such as releasing “biodegradable” products to the consuer. What this indicates is an apathetic pop&tion. Not apathetic toward the issue of the day - hue believers are a dime a dozen. Due to the irresistible bandwagon effect, it would be relatively easy to find an individual at random who would be willing to make sacrifices for something he or she believes in - especially on a University campus where many people are for the first time experiencing criticisms of ideas which they held to be self evident. The bandwagon effect is undeniable, but also very fleeting. The tendency toward instantaneous thus causes a desire for revolutions change over a short period of time as to a slow change over a long period evolution True, this is in a large part

of the media’s attempt

results - a fast

opposed of time, an effect

to force desires for

their products into thirty second time slots, but to use that as a scapegoat is to dismiss yourself as a brainless automaton unable to

make choices. I feel I should be making a point right about now, but truth be told, I’m not sure what it would be. I’m just tired of people sticking with ideas for as long as they seem cool, and then just copping out, because it leaves people like the natives at Oka and the people who fought against Free Trade alone again.

SLB - up 2 U While pros and cons of the Student Life Building issue are very complex - and will be put aside and commented upon in greater depth in the next issue - I would like to single out one particular party for criticism in this editorial - the NO Committee. That last

sentence should actually read “the former NO Committee” since the members of the committee have resigned leaving no official opposition to the YES side. Though I can sympathise with the NO Committee’s frustrations and decision to disband - they felt as though the referendum deck was stacked against them - it is ludicrous to completely abandon the debate, leaving the students without any organized source of information which might question the validity and worth of the pro Regardless of whether one’s r t inclination is to support or oppose the Student Life Building proposal, it is accepted that a balanced debate is a necessary condition of the democratic process. It is therefore lamentable that the members of the NO Committee gave up so easily.

Sometimes, if one feels that one is on a righteous pa&t, then it would be expected that one would not be quite so anxious to give up the battle, again, despite perceived procedural biases. An issue of great personal concern, as editor of the student newspaper, is the position into which the dissolution of the NO Committee thrusts Imprint. It is traditional and expected that a free press acts in tandem with official opposition to monitor and question the performance and policies of adminis-

and, in the absence of organized opposition, assumes that role. The second position is, however, not a most comfortable

trations,

place to be.

Make no mistake, the Student tife Building is a policy of the current Federation administration. During the official forums, and in the extended coverage which we will devote to the issue next week, we will be forced to search for the near-invisible area at the intersection of advocacy, propaganda, and information-supply whence resides adequate and balanced reporting. As it stands, YES posters are going up all over campus, and there will not be any comparable NO posters. Two Student Lfe Building forums will be held, with only one side there to present their opinion. Without opposition, the process is a mockery; a binding mockery . . . and considering the momentous nature of this decision, that is tragic. As a final note, the absence of a NO Committee makes it absolutely imperative that as many students as possible attend the forums which will take place at 123Opm in the Great Hall of the Campus Centre on Thursday, November 15, and Ttiesday November 20. Come out, listen, ask questions, and vote with intelligence and information. Since the forum dates fall such that our press deadlines rule out the possibility of us being able to report on them before student cast their votes, it is up to students to attend these forums.

To the editor,

Re: ‘B.C. man clubbed” (Imprint,NOV. has seemingly raised more questions than answers in his letter written to Imprintlast week this is partially due to the fact that Cameron’s method of argumentation is highly questionable (assuming, of course, that it is indeed a series of arguments that are being presented). For example, Cameron presents the premise that, “Sexual assault has Iittie to do with sex and everything to do with power.” The second premise that follows is, , “And power rests with men.” The conclusion implied by such premises would be, merefore, those with power commit sexual assault” Because of the absence of middle premises, however, this argument is highly dubious. (If Cameron’s argument is sound, Cameron’s later suggestion that women should be allocated more power would infer that women, with this newly acquired power, would then commit sexual assault!) Cameron makes the gross generalization that, “women both as a group and as individuals” face “fundamentally different and more problematic” burdens thk those fa;Ced by men. Cameron’s solution is to “ Bornehow (emphasis mine) allocate a fairer share of power to those who rightfully deserve it,” namely women For Cameron, such argumentation justifies “‘discrimination’ for women” To begin with, Cameron does not specifically state what are these ‘burdens” faced by women. Neither does Cameron go on to defend this position - it is merely asserted as being true. Compounding the problem is the fact that it is quite an ominous task to decide of what “power” consists, and historically speaking, exa,dly which gender has had more of “it-” The real danger, however, is wh&e a particular groups seems certain of what power really is, and then sets about redistributing “it” , through blatant d is&nination, via political or economic means. Such individuals run the risk of becoming the very disease they seek to cure. Perhaps the hazardous project of “redistribution of power” should be abandoned in favour of recognizing that all people, whether women, men and children, have been discriminated against throughout human history, With this in mind, we then set about the entire enterprise of no longer discriminating on the basis of gender, race or religion. In the end (or at the very beginning), we should

To the editor,

A comment about idiots out there who ruin a good cause. Back in spring 1990, Greenpeace descended upon, and eventually annoyed the heck out of Halifax. A British Nuclear warship (the Arch Royal) was visiting the naval installation and Greenpeace do not like things like nuclear warships. Thus, some of them did some dubious and, yes, stupid actions that made Halifax feel like it was being picked on. For example: (1) Six demonstrators climbed up the girders of the main bridge between Dartmouth and Halifax, in order to hang bannep and be noticed. Well, they were noticed; accidents occurred since the driven were gawking up at these people hanging off the support cables. Another famous MacDonald Bridge traffic jam occurred, where half the city became four hours late for work The police had to come in to cleah up the mess and to stop the people up on the cables from endangering themselves. (2) The Btitish did not mind the demonstrators co&g aboard, rooking around and hanging up a few banners. What they did mind was the suicidal idiots trying to weave their little speedboats in front of the path of the massive ship (ever seen and 18wheeler truck try to stop quickly - it CaMOt be done). Once again the protesters were stopped mainly iii order to protect them fron their own actions. (3) Note that the ship belonged to the British military, not the Canadian, yet it was a building on the Canadian base that wan broken into and set on fire. Imagine how my friend Kelley felt, when she. tried to phone her husband at his work a& found out the place was being

“Know ye that the Lord he is God. . , Enter into his gates with thanksgiving and intu his courts with pa&e. ” Ps 100:3-4.

Jesus’ clearing of the temple (Jn 2:12-V) was not so much a lesson in theology as it was an example of a principle, the principle of thankfulness. ‘True worship,” one Chrbtian writer suggested, “includes thanksgking to God.”

(McConkie,

1979)

Clearly the Jewsof Jesus’ time had lost an appreciation for the gift of God which was the temple. This is rarely apprehended today, kause very few people understand the nature of the ancient temple. John W&toe wrote that the temple was “a world of symbols.” (UGHM, April 1921, p. 62.) Its stnrcture, ritual, and teachings were all designed to represent the works of God from creation to salvation. Rabbi Nosson Scherman wrote that “each-~~ part of the structure and service symbolized an aspect of-the physical world or the human condition” The builders of the temples and tabernacle,

Adventures with Canada World Youth by Andrew Pape Special to Imprint When I sent off mj, application to Canada World Youth (CWY) during my first year of university, I never of the imagined the magnitude experience ahead of me when I a&ally participated in the propam. 1 I travelled

to Mali,

West Africa

after three and a half months in with southern Quebec the exchange. Mali is famous for the town of Timbuktu, which used to be on the edge of the Sahara Desert, in the north part of the country, on the Niger River. Because of rapid’desertification, the Sahara has engulfed villages south of Timbuktu in receYnt years.

Travelling to a Third World country for the sake of seeing it is probably the least significant part of CWY, considering the potential to learn different human cultures, languages, and ways of life. I discovered a lot about my own cultire as well, being in a minority position in first Quebec, and then Mali. I spent the Quebec stage of my exchange in Henryville, south of Montreal, with a host family on a dairy cattle and grain farm. My counKorotirni Traore from teq=b Bamako, Mali came over for that stage with 20 other MaIians, who were counterparts of 20 other Canadian participants. I spoke very little English during the program, because French is the official language of Mali, and my Quebecois family and Malian counterpart didn’t speak English. We were in Mali during the dry season from September to January, just in time for the yearly harvest. The majority of residents of our host village, Sougoula, are subsistence firmers. My host father, Mamadou Coulibali, is both a farmer and a merchant at the weekly market in Digan, where he sells dtierent s$:es. He spoke a little French, a ability he shares with only three others in his extended Lamily ‘of about 50. usually, only people who attend school are able to converse in French. It was important that I learn some Bambara;. the local language, to communicate with the other family members.lnBambtoasksomebodyif they are going to the field to harvest pads, me wodd say, ‘1 be taa foro la t&a bo wa?” Wouldn’t you love to lea&i a language like thai? I worked

daily in the fields five days a week with the Cdbablis harvesting cotton, corn, sorghum, peanuts, millet, and potatoes without mechanical aid. The peanut harvest was the most intense, digg-ipg them out from clay&e soil with a hand hoe with the hot African sun beating down.

At night, I often got together with members of my host family and conversed while sipping Malian Tea, which has a very unique taste. I learned a lot about Malian culture, andsharedaspectsofmycul~r&ith them Once a week, the CWY participants got together and pareducational days ticipated in discussing Third World, community, and agricultural issues. We atso worked on weekly communie projects with the youth of So@. h-

ing our stay in Mali, we ate traditional Malian food and slept under mosquito nets in clay huts with friendly lizards under our roofs, and not so friendly (but not deadly} scorpions around sometimes. The varieties of CW programs are endless in the 21 different exchanges, ranging from exchanges based on social service work in India and Alberta to cooperative farming-based ones in Ontario and Costa Rica The age limit for participants is 20 years old as of December 31 of the year before the exchange. CWY pays for all necessary expenses, outside of a sponsorship that participants must find in their own communityThe Work-Partner Program is a program for Canadians between 2125 vears old and is structured slightly differently from the traditional exchanges. CWY also hires several group leaders and exchange coordinators each year, who usually have a university degree and speak a , second language. The applitition deadline is January 31, 1991 for regular participants, April 1991 for the Work Partner pro&ram, and early in December 1990 for group leaders and coordinators, If you are interested in applm write to the follotig address: Canada World Youth Ontario Regional Office 386 Moor Street West Torclnto, Ontario, M5S 1X4 TeL: (416) 922 cI?76 Come out to the U.W.

The UW chapter of Youth the Future (YBF) is selecting dent delegates to attend annual YBF conference :9ge@ty, Oslo, Norway

Building two stuthe f&h at Oslo in July

CGer the past four years, the UW chapter has sent delegates to the annual conference in locations as incontiguous as Melbourne, Buenos Aires, and Cairo. In 1988, UW hosted the conference on campus. YBF is an international student network created by university students concerned about the well-being of their planet and its inhabitants. The group’s aim is to promote peace and cooperation through cultural exchange and education. The annual conference is the highlight of each year’s activities. YESFis not a single-issue group, but is concerned about all questions of importance to the world’s future. The conferences and the network are a means to break down barriers brought about by lack of knowledge, understanding, communication, and political misinformation, to increase the appreciation of other social, cultural and political systems, and to develop a&on plans for solving problems that face the world. The network bd its beginning in 1987at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology when the first conference was organized in conjunction with RMIT’s centenary celebrations. Niety university students from 18 countries participated in that first conference. Since the initial conference in Australia, concurrent annual conferences have been held at UW in August 1988, the University of Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina in July 1989, and

Propylene Polymerization by Bob Whit-ton special to rqwint

that is, it is a sub&&e which when melted, moulded and then cooled, retains its moulded shape. If on the other hand, the methyl groups are randomly arranged in space along the chain, the polymer is a viscous liquid at room temperature and is not commercially useful. Isotactic poly(propylene) is produced by the polymerization of propylene, which is a cheap product of crude oil refining in the presence of a catalyst. The catalysts employed in industry are calIed Ziegler-Natta catalysts after their discovers, Karl Ziegler of West Germany, and Gilvo Natta of Italy. These catalysts are prepared from a metaI -salt and an alkyl akminum compound. Poly(propylene) is formed on the surface of these catalysts when individual propylene molecuIes combine with each other, in a step wise.manner, at specific sites on the surface.. . called “active centres.” Ziegler-Natta catalysts have been used by industry for over 30 years, yet the structures of these active centres are still unknown Since they are present in low concentrations on the surface of these insoluble catalysts, it is difficult to structurally characterize them by conventional methods. For this reason a great deal of largely empirical research has had to be performed, at great expense, to develop

One of our most useful plastics is polyp ropylene. It is Iight, heat-resistant and is used in the manufacture of many things including fabrics, rope, carpeting . . * even underwear and socks, because one of the properties of cloth made from it is that it permits perspiration to pass through freely so the wearer keeps dry. It is also used foi packaging films and as a synthetic rubber. Research at the University of Waterloo could, at some future time, have a significant impact on the way polypropylene - perhaps more accurately written as poly(propylene) - is made. Poly(propy1ene) is a polymer; it consists of a large number of identical structural units joined together by carbon-carbon bonds to form long chain-like hydrocarbon molecules. The three-dimensional arrangement of methyl groups abng this hydrocarbon chain has a s@nificant influence on the physical prc+ perties of poly (propylene). If they are all oriented the same way in space, as shown, the polymer is called “isotactic” - in which case it is a solid that melts at a high temperature. It is also a thermoplastic -

catalysts aqI pxqssesA fox the efficient manufacture ’ of poly(prropykne) and other poly(olefir-6). Much of our fundamental chemical information on how polymerization occurs using Ziegler-Nat& cataIysts has been obtained indirectly . . . through the study of catalysts that are soluble and therefore much more readily characterized.

It wtwhi be

desirable...to dmebp molecularweight,Until recently, however, soluble catalysts were of limited commercial interest since they were not as efficient as the insoluble ones; they were less stable, and in the case of propylene polymerization they produced poly(propylene) which was not isotactic. In the last 10 years or so new soluble catalysts, prepared from organometallic compounds, have been discovered. These are very efficient catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene and propylene. These organometaliic compounds are structura~y well defined; the mechanism of polymerization, can be more readily determined. Ultimately, a better understanding of the polymerization mechanism will lead to better control of polymer properties Poly (propylene) is actually a mixture of

Plans I

hydrocarbon chains of different lengths; thus the molecular weight of poly(propjrlene) is not a single value, as for most chemical compounds. Polymer chemists describe the molecular weight of a polymer as being a “distribution” - for example, a plot of a number of Dolvmer chains wh a &en molecuh we&hi versus molecular w&ht. pOly(propylene) that is produced using Ziegler-Natta &alysts has a very broad molecular weight distribution This is because hat active ce&res on the surface of these catalysts are not the same; some produce poly(propylene) much more &cieAly than others; in contrast, poly(pr0pylene) pro duced using the new soluble catalysts has a much na&wer ,molecular weighi distribution All catalyst molecules produce poly(p ropylene) with about the same efficiency. The average molecular weight of poly(p ropylene) is an important property. In part it determines what products the polymer will be used for. It would be desirable therefore to develop catalysts thatcould be used to produce poly (propylene) of fairly specific molecular weight and with a narrow molecular weight distribution. The studies now underway at UW may allow such a goal to be accomplished. They are being carried out by Dr. Scott Collins, organic chemistry professor, who was collaborating closely k&h Dr. David Holden, a UW polymer chemist. Essentially, Collins provides the expertise in :organome&llic catalysis and Holden provided the polymer expertise. izollins has become interested in this field since his arrival on campus five years ago.

As for the significance of potential applications of his work, Collins feels it could lead to such bet&s as lower manufacturing costs for poly (propylene). He notes that while it is already techn&lly feasible to recycle poly(propylene) it is not economically attractive to do so on a be scale; this situation will change in the future as pdrochemicals become more scarce.

‘Thus far, we feel, our approach is valid,“he says. “I would say our initial results are interesting and if they continue, our next step might be to scale up to the pilot plant level.“At such a point, he feels, the expertise of faculty members in UW’s chemical engineering department might be most helpful.

“At this point in time we are not in a position to state that such things may actually result from this research,” he insists. %ut certainly anyone who discovers a catalyst or catalysts that can accomplish them will have made a very significant contribution to polymer chemistry.”

pr ‘cent used a condom occasionaIly, and 25 per cent never used one. In North America the most common risk behaviours in contracting AIDS are unprotected anal sex between men and the sharing of intra,venous needles According to the studies, however, there is also a growing concern about the incm of sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV infection (the forenmner of AIDS), in Young women. In

street kids surveyed had weekly drug or alcohol habits, the drugs of choice beiimarijuana, hashish, cocaine, and acid.

particular, more women are contracting HIV through heterosexual sex. The studies say Canadian youth are potentially at risk because of increased pressure to “use drugs, especially alcohol, that impair judgment and ability to make decisions at a time when they are beginning to be sexually active.” They also say the increasing rate of AIDS in 20 to 25-year olds probably reflects infection contracted in the victims’ teens, since the incubation period for AIDS can be up to seven years or more. Why then are young people putting themselves at risk when they how the possible consequences? The studies’ co-author Dr. Alan king of Queen’s University’s Social Program Evaluation Group, says it is a reflection of the norms and pressures of the adolescent’s life. “A lot of kids value seRual activity as a measure of status,” he says. “It’s expected that young people will engage in sex before mafl-iage and it is acceptable,” to the kids and to a large segment of s&ety, he adds.

At greatest risk on the streets are prostitutes and drug users. But, as King says, “there’s so manyotherrisksintheirenvironmentthatthe idea of AIDS is of less consequence.” FIe adds that “they tend to interact with themselves, sharing themselves as well a their cigarettes-” The studies culled information on the subjects’ backgrounds, sources of information, knowledge, attitudes, concerns and percep tions of the media. ‘We’re looking at commonalities across the country,” says King the aim being to”help change the norms and pn>vide information” that will encourage young people to take fewer risks,in their lifestyles. The studies may have been indirectly responsible for the changes in AIDS-related pre grams, such as needle exchanges, condom machines in schools, and new educational materials. King says the “studies seem to be cited as the basis for many initi&ives . . . they’re using the studies to illustrate the level of activity of the kids and the need for these kind of initiatives.”

Computer

The highest risk is on the street, where there is more sexual activity and greater alcohol and drug use, the studies Say. Although only one per cent of all AIDS cases i.nCanadaareattributeddirectlytodruguse (infection by sharing needles) it is a risk factor that must be dealt with. Nearly haIf of the

The I current plethora of mature comics are more likely traced to Art Spiegelman’s Maus, a series depicting the illustrator’s experiences with his father who weathered VVW II in Auchswitz. The twist on this holocaust story is that everyone is portrayed as some type of animal, Jews were mice, Germans cats, Americans Pigs, etc. The themes introduced were not only much more complex than those found in Superman or Spiderman, they were also more entertaining to a mature audience. The comic employs metafiction@ devices, multiple narrators who z&e all of questionable bias, and special attention to the inter-play of text and illustration.

Witch Burning: The LLWomen9s Holocaust” byPhiuipch~ Imprintstaff

The struggle for the emancipation of women in the Western world is far from over, Except for a few blated, so-called wtim tr&~ scattered about the w&%& pat&CGA societies are the .ztam #a the’lwentieth centi*. The histo&a!‘roots of mimgyriy are complex, varied and controversial. Indeed, evidence supporting fhe development of one male-centred culture may not apply to another. For Donna Read, the producer of a new National Film Board documentary, The Burning Times, a lot of the violence against women today began in the fomeenth to seventeenth centuries during the witch hunts. She calls it the “women’s holocaust” because it wasn’t just a few women that were tortured and burned at the

stake, but thousands, The movie claims that nine million lives were taken during this period;85 per cent of them women, a figure Read took from a group of Germ+m femi+t historians. She says it doesn’t matter if it was only nine thousand but it is just remarkable that thousands of years of traditions were lost during this”great historic31 event? *

Nine million livesweretaken According to the film, by the time the Romans made contact with the Celtic tribes, women held positions of authority in the villages. For thousands of years, women were the physicians, healers, counselors, and wise women. Women always led the gathering of the village to celebrate nature, the arrival of spring. and fer-

The healing powers practiced as folk medicine that were once dismissed are now being re-investigated by doctors trying to understand the power of spiritual he . Fog r&.&Jim emphasized x ’ land, exp&ential:knowledge, and a senseof~*~afeco~ cepts that can be found in the literature of the modern ecological movement. The word witch corn- from the Anglo-Saxon wiche, meaning to bend or shape. Starhawlc a feminist historian, witch and colleague of Fox at the same Catholic college, the pagan traditions now associated with witchcraft were really means of developing altered states of consciousness without the use of drugs. Another tradition is the celebration of the summer solstice. The “double, double, toil and trouble” sterotype is a false view of witches, along with derogatory terms such as hag. Historian Thea Jensen says hag originally meant “sacred knowledge.” 7&e Burning r’imes provides some fascinatinghis~orical perspectives for the basis of our misogynist society. It gives us a chance to retrieve those traditions that may help us deal with the environmental problems that face us, according to Starhawk Sexism, racism, militarism and many other isms might be dealt with as well, she adds. Sexuality was no longer a gift but a sin. Woman the temptress, was an obstacle to Man’s holiness. It was a woman that caused the Fall. Husbands were advised from the pulpits that they must beat their wives, not to control them, but out of charity for their souls. For St. Thomas Aquinas, the greatest pleasure for those in heaven was to watch the suffering of the damned. By the sixteenth century, women’s rights were severely eroded, especially the right to property. Women that held property, the spinsters and widows, fell under suspicion. In fact, their property was seized in order to pay for the cost of their torture during the “witch craze.” Roberts draws some disturbing insights. The scientific revolution and l

the scientic method relied on the techniques of witch hunting and the Inquisitions. She sees Fran&Bacon’s idea of science as “teasing the secrets out of Nature” as a metaphor for witch burning and its attendant interrogative methods. It was also the period in which capitalism arose. Large sums of money were requ&d to pay people to do the jobs invo!vti with irtmeraiing witches. Employment opp@uniti~ weTe provided fdr lawyers and judges. It only took two hundred years to transform paganism into satanism. Folk traditions into heresy- Satan’s demons were depicted as women Thewild-homedDionysiangod was transformed into the devil. The Devil had become .elevated to God’s worthy opponent. Women were weak and susceptible to sexual passion and were therefore the greatest sinners. When a woman signed a pact with the devil, she did it sexually. Gatherings of women were seen as evil practices and forbidden.

Her faith rooted in the old ways, she claimed to hear voices that gave her a greater authority than the church. The church felt threatened by her claimofadirectKnktoGod. The witchhunts and suppression of women was a political one, too. Midwives were condemned because they eased the pain of childbirth Eve’s sin. Midwives also practiced abortion and gave out contraceptive advice. In short, they allowed women to control their own bodies, an issue that is pertinent to modem abortion debates. The church said that untrained women who practiced any form of healing were witches. Since universities were closed to women, women were effectively shut out of the male medical p&e&on that arose.

There were even handbooks written for the inquisitors. The Mulkus Mal&an4m (translated as Hum mer Aguird Wti&hes)Was published in 1486 by two Dominican priests. In it were elaborate techniques for the torture and extraction of confessions from the accused. Matthew Fox, a Dominican priest in the film says it was a “highly sexual book and it’s all about the projection of man onto others, the fear of their own sexuality, the fear of the night, the fear of the dark, the fear of women.” It was a pure study in sexual repression The witch hunts, as suggested in the film, were a means for the emerging male-dominated church and state authorities to dismiss and suppress ancient traditions and cultures. Barbara Roberts, an historian from the film, says that there were two religions; the formal church religion and the people’s religion based on natural spirits. The hunts were the response of a threatened institution, Thus it was also a way for them to

Bishop’s features two big veteran &IS, 6’3” swingman Pierre Tibblin and 6’3” forward Jeff Harris. The return of sophomore pivot David Fisher (6’8”) and the addition of rookie forwards Colin Feasby (6’4”) and Brennan W&es (6’6”) should help in the paint battle. The Gaiters challenged all in 1989-90, determined to be contenders. Only Toronto and Concordia in the East kept them under control. The only main concern for veteran head coach Eddie Pomykala will be trying to keep up their intensity for a full 40 minutes on the hardwood.

The Tigers enter the tournament with some great athletes. This cohesive team will be led by 6’8” veteran center Dean Thimeau along with the perimeter support of forward David Chiasson and the CLAUS newest member, guard Keith Donovan. Other than Thibodeau, Dalhousie lacked an inside game in recent years because of height. But the recruitment of 6’9” pivot Ron McIntosh ana 6’7” forward Randy Fehr should change all that. Dalhousie must be worried about their lack of experience though, with eight freshmen, three sophomores, and only three junior players.

Among the elite of CIAU basketball is Guelph, last season’s national bridesmaid. If your putting some -serious money down on this year’s hal, look for the Gryphons to toss the bouquet, or should I say “jam the bouquet forcefully down the basket.” Guelph is a huge team with endless inside scoring ability in veterans Eric Hammond (6’8”), Tim Mau (6%“). Freshmen Jason Myles (67”) and Dave Sherwood (6’9”) boost the& average height of the front men to over 67“. This season the Gryphs will sport a more versatile perimeter, capable of breaking the game wide open. They will be exciting to watch and near-insurmountable for their opponents.

Pre-season scouting reports show that Laurentian and McGill will be Concordia’s strongest challengers for the OUAA Cent&East Championship tilt. The Voyageurs, commanded by six year head coach Peter Campbell, boast great quickness and range shooting. The attack is led by spidery guards Dave Games and Norm Harm ‘on the outside @d fourth-year forwards John Campbell and Rod Gilpin under the glass. With the recruitment of some of the best freshman talent in Northern Ontario, Laurentian will be able to take on anybody with their gutsy style of play.

The X-Men - nationally ranked last year - enjoyed huge success with the trifecta firepower of guard Wade Smith, who collected MVP honours at the 1989 Naismith Classic. But Smith is gone and StF.X. will miss him big time because he opened up the game, taking pressure off the big men. The experience of Augy Jones, Danny McFarland, Doug McKinnon, and Otis Delaney should help fill the hole. Brian Lee, a rookie from Ottawa’s Sir Rob&t Borden, will be a keyplayer to mtch. The outstanding feature of this squad is the shot blocking trio of Richard Bella, Guy Mbongo, and A.&tide Nguilibet, all natives of the Central African Republic.- Overall, the X-Men are more mature but still developing-

Waterloo’s biggest story during the off-season was the recruitment of one of the best rookie prospects in the nation - 6’7” hometown product Sean Van Koughnett. He amassed 34 points in the Warriors’ opening round game of the Winnipeg invitational Tournament three weeks ago. UW took the silver medal in the weekend long event The speed of third-year players Jason Poag and Rob Baird, coupled with the flypaper defence of sophomore Mike Duarte, gives depth at the guard positions. Dave Rosebush is a welcome return at the post. Sophomore forwards Chris Moore and John Hamilton both have an impressive shooting range. Look for Don McCrae to mold another OUAA contender, in this his 21st year as head coach.

Laurier is short on experience (seven of their 13 players are ‘in their freshman year) but high in quickness. Team leader Mike Alessio enter&his final year of eligibility with a deadly perimeter shot. Junior Danny Deep is the Hawk’s fastest guard and another offensive threat. Steve Duncan and Chris Speyer are two forwards that should season in 1989-90. After suffering without size for the last three years, the Golden Hawks have finally got a front court, with the recruitment of 6’6” Shawn Roach, 6’7” Alex Thornton, and 67” Derrick Shirley.

Winnipeg begins basketball training camp in the late summer as opposed to mid September for most other university cager squads. Thus, the Wesmen are known throughout the CIAU for being far ahead of other teams with their multiple defences. Winnipeg has great depth at the front court positions with six players at 6’6” or over, including freshman giant Norm Froemef at 7’0”. Veteran forwards John Math&on, Nick Janzen, and Scott Anderspn will pace the scoring attack and sophomore Jeff Foreman will command the boards. Head coach Bill Wedlake looks forward to coaching one of the best balanced teams ever to come out of Manitoba.

Hockey

I guess you could have called it the clash of the Titans. The Waterloo hockey Warriors travelled to Cornell

University in Ithaca, New York to play the NCAA’s Division 1 Cornell Big Red, the number

college

team in the United States. And when it was all over, the Big Red came out on top with the exhibition win on a tip in goal by Joe Dragon with 1:13 remaining in the five-minute overtime period. “It was an exercise in practisimg SeIfdiscipline under conditions that would force a normaI Canadian hockey player. to blow his top,” said Warrior head coach Don McKee, refeming to the fact that the referee put his team two men down only 45 seconds into the game. Under those circumstances, Kent christened the Manderville scoreboard on the powerplay at 18: 15 with a slapshot from the middle of the left faceoff circle. Manderville drained another one through the legs of UW starting goaltender Mark McCue midway through the first period to put the Big Red up 2-O to the break The Warriors were outshot 127, but McCue made some spectacular SaVeS.

In the second period, the pace quickened as the Waterloo freshmen took control on the powerplay. Former Kitchener Ranger Junior “A” Cory Keenan finished off a Tony CrispJohn Williams passing combination with a howitzer blast from the top of the circle to put the black and gold on the score sheet at the eight minute mark.

Cornell 3, Waterloo 3. The Warriors took the lead for the first time in the game on brentz’s second goal at IO:28 Spidery center Tony Crisp held onto the puck for what seemed like a week and tin, at the last minute, he dished it over to Lorentz, who put it upstairs where Wally and Beav share a room. With only 16 seconds left Andison potted his second goal of the period to force overtime, putting the 3,000 pIus hometown crowd into a frenzy.

This shadowed the phenomenal netminding of Steve Udvari, who took over goaltending duties in the third period. Udvari was peppered with 22 shots in the third period, comp’ared to the five shots that his teammates tested the Cornell backstop with. Play was rather conservative and defence overwhelmed during the opening of the five-minute overtime period, before Dragon nailed the winner.

WaY by Sian Jennimgs special to Imprint

last Saturday, the OUAA rugby final was contested at M&laster University in HamiIton. The leagueleading Marauders host&l perennial playoff favourites the Queen’s Golden Gaels on a well-groomed pitch. M&aster switched the venue of the game from their usual pitch to the football stadium, which provided slightly better fan accommodation, but robbed the game of the social atmosphere and camaraderie usually evident. The hastily drawn rugby lines were confusing Setting the pace for the first half, Mac kicked the ball deep into Queen’s territory. The ball was ably handled by the Queen’s fullback who sent a towering kick into touch. Kicking dominated the first half as the flyhalfs on both teams were reIuctant to run the ball.

McMastefs fullback Alan Hamilton notched his first three points of the day on a 40-yard kick horn a steep angle. Mac struck again on another penalty and led 6-O. In an exchange of kicks, Gareth Pettigrew for Queen’s slipped nine points beh+veen the p&S. The only try in the first frame came after good rucking by the M&laster forwards drove Queen’s five yards backward from their goalline. The ball travelled quickly out to the backs and a Mac winger touched the bail down in the corner for four points. After missing the conversion, Mac led lo-9 at the half. In the second half, some boisterous Mac fans urged their team on to greater efforts. For the impartiai viewers, however, the question was when would the Golden Gaels show the playoff magic they perform so well. It wasn’t long before Queen’s

Stout and resolute defence accompanied by the sniping runs of the number eight and astute kicking by the scrumhalf pinned Mac in their own zone. McMaster did engineer one impressive drive late in the game that pushed a maul pell-mell 20 yards down the field before it collapsed. Mac was unable to capitalize on their ensuing strum. The Marauders also showed some poor decision-making skills when with time running out they elected to kick for field position instead of running the ball. The game ended with the score 18-13. In a continuation of their dominance, the Queen’s junior varsity team defeated the Guelph Gryphons in a hotly contested battle. The only black mark on the day was the public address system used by McMaster. A p;vlisa” announcer openly questioned the refqee’s calls as they were made. This was unsportsmanlike and detracted from the well-refeed and well-played game. Man of the match honours went to Gael Gareth Pettigrew and Marauder Al Hamilton. In the end, there were no losers: rugby was the winner. McMaster

HOMECOMING SWIM MEET

Swimming

Friday

by Jeff Slater Imprint staff

7 p.m. At the PAC pool Cheer on our Warrior and Athena swim teams.

The University of Waterloo swim teams packed up and headed off to Brock iast Friday to challenge their provincialfoes at the OWIAAI OUAA Relay Meet. UW was anxious to escape from their grueling practice schedule and race sbmething other than the clock. Although no swimmer has ever beaten the clock there were plenty of Warriors and Athenas rolling past their opposition. As the season begins the Warriors are buoyed by the return of Bermudian Commonwealth team member Mike Cash, the anival of outstandins freshmen tan Hunt and Eric Huff and

the deepest goup of returnees in years. These include Jason Krupp, Brad Oesch, Dave Dineen and Jeff Budau, The Athenas have also strengthened their line-up with several strong rookies led by Christie Selig and Christine Cuerriero. There is an outstanding attitude permeating the women’s team this seasonwhich is helping veterans Kris Jackshaw, Nicole Peters and Sheryl Slater charge toward their best seasons ever. Trish F&zegi, a winner of three events in Windsor two weeks ago, heads up a deep group of young returnees. The outstanding swim of the meet for the Warriors was posted by the 3 X 100 fly relay of Oesch, Hunt, and Krupp, another Bermudian vacationing where the weather is better, Oesch and Hunt. Their 3:02 clocking suggests big things for the year ahead. This effort was strongly backed by the

University of Waterloo

SENATE BY-ELECTION

For one undergraduate Mathematics student representative to Senate, term to April 30, 1991. The campus election will take place on:

combination of Budau, Kevin McDonald and ever improving Andrew C&wright. These three battled to a fourth place finish in the backstroke relay, posting in-season best times along the way. The Athenas will have to rely on their depth to reach their lofty goals. Waterioo is endowed with a powerful crowd of flyers, backstrokers and breaststrokers who are really making their mark. The distance freestylers are the strongest this side of Toronto and will make a huge difference in the dual meet season. Juanita Diegel, Andi Kenyon and Chris Gibson showed that the team records in the 100 and 200 breast are in jeopardy thisseasonastheyauisedtoafourth place finish in their relay. The women’s team combined for 23 points good for fourth place at the relay meet behind Western, Toronto and Guelph. The men were able to surprise many rival teams by captur-

ing 48 points and wand place behind Western They were jusl ahead of Guelph and Brock, teams theywillbebattlingwithuntilthe final weekend of the season in February. ThosesmeGryphonswillbein Waterloo’s pool Friday evening for what promises to be the highlight of the fall season for the men’s and women’s teams. The two teams are closely matched although Guelph has prevailed in the dual meet the past three years. Waterloo will be scrapping for every point they can collect, the women’s team will be looking to vault into the national rankings if they can pull off the upset.

The firstraceis at7 pm on Friday so come on out and support the swimmers before you head into the gym. A big crowd will be guaranteed some close and exciting racing between these two aquatic foes.

Faces

of the future:

the

Rhinos

A quiet (?!?) local band, the Rhinos are made up of Danny Michel, Michael Blanchard, Darren Iles and Steve Kendall. They play anything and everything, mostly whistles and things from the guts of pump organs. More seriously they funk their audience in an amazingly fresh and warm style. They are fun and they are now. They are 7124 Rhinos. Imprint talked with Dan, Mike, Darren and their manager Doug and this is what happened. IMPRINT:

DARREN: The Chili Peppers ed Fishbone, that’s pretty-neat sounding new music. DAN: And Bootsy, the greatest bass player alive, Bootsy COllh. DARREN:I think that everyone in the band is really different in the styles of music they listen to. I’m really influenced by the keyboards of early Talking Heads and some Cure. Dan’s influenced by Adrian Belew and David Bowie, Steve by Ring0 Starr and Charlie Watts. MIKFz And I like the South African guitar style called Highlife. DARREN: Yeah, so I think what happens is a combination of Mike’s ideas, what he would like to hear in the song and what Dan would like to hear and even what I like to put in. DAN: And then there are two other guys: Jim who plays bongos and percussion and Jim (Ed) on sax. IMPRINT: So b this the root of your e&tic sound?

So, Iezk start with somefcrcts

here. How long have you been pkyirg tug&her? DAN: The Rhinos have been together for almost three years. IMPRINT: And how would you describe yourselftx~ a band, besides g4tting old. DAN: Oow, that’s Darren’s appeal. IMPRINT: i.He’s the philmpher? DARFZN: I think very deeply. Urn. I don’t know. Describe us? A chunka jazz, a chunka funk - everything. ., its indescribable. DAN: Lf you like Fishbone, you’ll like us . . . and if you like Glen Miller, you3 like us.. . and if you like Barry Manilow, well you might like us. But, we stay away from covers, its all OriRinal.

DOUG: And once the whole vase was thrown. IMPFUNT: i.It seems you search out weird types of things. I hear tell of organ pipes being used in songs and weird samples. How do these come about. DAN: We should describe the organ pipes so people understand what we’re talking about. They’re from an old pipe organ, they’re big. 4 foot long wooden pipes that air blows through and makes a sound. We just blow through them with our mouths. MIKE: And get two to three notes off them. A lot of the weird instruments we play, people have given them to us. Once I got a pipe for my birthday and that night we plaqed some place and I played it and it came out like a mystical guru-Indian sound. DAN: And then we were playing at the Huether and I was playing this bass line when a kazoo hits me in the head. Somebody threw it on stage so we played it. DOUG: So the band is basically a trash magnet. IMPIUNT: i.That almosksoundslike a chaknge, if anybody brings up any kind of bizarre instrument you’ll play it. MIKE: Well play anything as long as we can keep it. IMPRINT: Do you jnd a lot of imp?wisuhbn working it~ way into your musk?

A bunchof wimps?No, the Rhinos DOUG: Covers have been added for levity, for comedy. Lately they’ve been doing the odd one, like ‘Fame” by Bowie. DAN: Only we funkize it. We make it funkier than Dave could ever do, because he’s an old man and he’s a woman inside just dying to get out IMPRINT: so redly, yuu concen~ute on your own materid and m what I’ve seen the crowds realry +F,apomi to it. MIKE: At one show a girl actually lit her lighter and waved it back and forth. DOUG: That was your mom. DARREN: Didn’t we have a rose thrown at us once?

DARREN: Most of our show is spontaneous. The songs are arranged about half a an hour before we go on, but the rest is improv; all the time samples are used spontaneously. DAN: Jim the bongo guy doesn’t really do any&Q the same ever. He just plays whatever he wants whenever he wants and it usually works. and if it doesn’t after the show he gets a good whop in the head and is told not to do it again and everything’s cool DARREN: What’s neat too is that Jim digs into this little box and pulls out all these different percussion instruments. IMPRINT: Is there anyone on the con-

party studio input in them. We’ve been working in the studio to create a demo which is starting to sqund pre tty good. Its getting near the stage where there’s enough mated to caU it an album, and we might take one of several approaches with that album, It may become an independent album, but hopefully it will become the key to opening a real record con+

DARREN: I: think so. In a lot of of bands, all the members dress the same listen to the same music, do things the same. Everyone in our band is completely separate from one another, in personal life and everything. MIKE: We Fhouldn’t be playing together. That’s what makes us good.

“Wb shodkin ‘t beInlayingtogether.

That’swhat makesus BM&” IIMPNNT: This all &x.4nds quiE contiadictoly to many groups today who concentrate on a studio sound and aren ‘t as concerned with live peforrnunCRT. DOUG: Well, I don’t think The KhinoS started as a band that was going to look for songs and make songs. They were a bunch of guys that seemed to enjoy playing together and wanted that fun thing to continue. And when I saw them, that’s what 1 saw, The songs haven’t had a lot of

tract. We need a few more tunes on the tape we’re working on a few tunes to add to that right now, and soon well be ready to approach the record companies with that. The band had several really good gigs this fall that we all really enjoyed playing and I had good response from, people told me they really enjoyed the band. We really had fun opening for the Pikes and Crash Vegas because they had good PA systems to use.

he knowledgable, the curious, and the ignorant: Fed Hall was full of all kinds when They Might Be Giants sauntered on stage last Saturday night. As for the knowledgeable, they were blown away and then some; the curious, satiated and th6n some; and the knowledgeable and ignorant, blown away and then some. They Might Be Giants pulled off one of music’s hardest feats: they were able to put on a great live show with the severe handicap of tapes. TMBG are simply a duo, and their sound is defined by overdubbing and much electronics. Thus, in order to capture their sound live, they needed to use a barrage of prerecorded and sampled sounds. Often it is hard to coordinate this with the live musicians, especially if the mood desired is one of spontaneity. But TMBG, through a combination of superb sho wmanship and technical expertise, were able to transcend the pitfalls of such a process and produce a near seamless set that still had all the charm that they are noted for. The dudes have a fantastic song catalogue, three albums with about fifteen to twenty songs on each. And these songs don’t just fill space on a disk the majority of them are practically pop-masterpieces. Though they are all so short, most of them contain unforgettable hooks and melodies. And with such a base to draw from, TMBG couldn’t help but choosing anything but chestnuts. Thus, the show became essentially a greatest hits show, with no obvious bias toward their most recent album. This decision was a prudent one;

dally in many and create a hybrid sound. This is quite evident on “I’m Free,” which mixes drum-machines, buzz-saw guitars, Jamaican toasting and a great Jagger/Richards creation to divine something positively Soup Dragon&h. “Everybody was influenced by the says guitarist Jim McStones,” Culloch. “And it is a very good song. But it is kind of tricky. First of all, it is not a well known Stones song. Secondly, the way we did it makes it sound even less like a Stones song.” But the band has taken flack for its most recent sound change; to some, it smacks of band-wagonism in the wake of the Manchester explosion. But, according to McCulloch, this is not true: “we are using this sound now because we finally have the studio expertise to do it. Whenever we have gone into the studio, it was a learning experience. In the past,. we played our just went and instruments. But now we have learned how to make the studio itself

we&We?2 ‘t infruencedby Manchester into an instrument.” Using the studio as an instrument, to the Soup Dragons, meant redefining what they are musically. Yet, this was nothing new to the Dragons, who seem to have read fie M~umorphoses from cover to cover and likewise identify themselves with legendary familiars of all sorts. ’ “It is useless to be stagnar$” explains McCulloch, “because it bores us and it bores our fans. Perhaps certain fans want a sound that they recognize, but we are not making music for the purposes of doing what anybody expects.” That they come from Glasgow is another 1proof that the lads offer against the charge of cashing in on a popular sound. Vocalist Sean Dickson expIains: “we’ve had a lot of the same influences all the way through. Coming from Glasgow, we’Te actually quite removed from what’s going on in Loridon or Manchester. I honestly don’t think we’ve changed our basic ideas since we’ve started. When we started the Soup Dragons, one of the main influences was Hendti, and his records are basically brilliant dance records: ‘Fire’ has one of the best drum beats ever, and ‘Crosstown Traffic’ has a wicked groove. That’s why we first used a wah-wah pedal and that’s why we once played ‘Purple Haze’ live.” Although Glasgow is removed from the Londcn and Manchester

scene, the band h+sstill nothadrnuch difficulty in being accepted’ thr&ghout the UK; this is attested to by their chart-topping success recently. And coming from Glasgow has one interesting, ,facet: it is unlike its southern neighbours, in regard to its music scene. Says McCulloch: “Glasgow has no identifiable scene. All kinds of music exists there, from

CowboyJunkies and bagpipes metal bands to pop.”

One trend that the Dragons can not (at Ieast, not yet) be accused of falling for is the move towards blending in traditional ‘folk’ music with pop. Folk music, if you remember, got one of its b&j& pushes when Los Lobos rethe Latin-American popularised sound with their version of “La Bamba,” Working autonomously,

T,

’ ell, Pat Fish, aka the Jazz Butcher, is on the road again, to hit and is scheduled southern Ontario this weekend: U of Guelph’s Peter Clark Hall tonight.

He and his band, the Jazz Butcher Conspiracy (JBC), can always be counted on to play an honest set of fabulous pop riddled with humour and drunken stupor. This tour showcases his latest LP, Cult of the Btasemerit, which itself continued the fine tradition of solid JBC releases. By the time they hit southern Ontario, the troop should be polished and in fine form. According to Fish: “we’re up and running now and we’ve done about seven dates. We’re beginning to’ sound like the JBC ag&. We started in Portland, Oregon; did Seattle; came in tluou& Vancouver; and we’ve been heading west ever since.”

really got to know; I mean, living in North Hampton with Bauhaus and all. Then I got to meet his brother David (David J) and he played with us and so on.” But he never had much to do with Peter Murphy, at least not musically.

why?

“Well, I mean, what could you do with Murphy but buy him a nice expensive production job? I must admit, I do get the odd laugh out of Bauhaus. .There was a glorious occasion when they played the Repertory Theatre in North Hampton - a nice old theatre like Barrymore’s in Ottawa - and they were down 01 stage and they started with ‘BeL Lugosi’s Dead.’ ‘It was the big soni then.

Primal Scream got in on it and actually had hits. It’s like when punk happened: somebody tookit to America and twisted it to their own sick ends. That’s effectively happened to House Music; it’s been filtering through the English DJs, who have been getting closer to the mustins.” "SQ this DJ Steve Procter was sit-

Mixing that album was so much fun because ofall the little pieces between the tracks, you know, like the screams that jolt you after a nice little ‘doo doo da doo.’ It’s like a concept album; it’s filmic. It suggests that something is going‘ on, but there is no central, single theme. But there is a pervasive mood. It keeps coming back to the same thing: love sex hate death. It’s our goth album. Hahe (Cue Demonic laughter)” The first single from Cult is “Girl Go,” a real dirge that grin4 from its explosive beginning to its acophonous ending. It is a fine song in the tradition of the oft-imitated VeIvet Underground. “It is a huge dirge, isn’t it?” resrids Fish/We call it the corpse, L d.

Confessions cfrom the quiet room

Brian Eno: Often I dream of ghosts The various screens were mounted in banks and scattered individually throughout the space, which was subdivided by various barriers in order to produce a greater sense of intimacy within the separate display spaces. On various CRT’s, Eno had mounted opaque screens to produce a more diffuse illumination. Others had been laid flat on the floor and had hollow boxes mounted on them which produced softly glowing shapes of radiance.

the idea of musicians, or any other for that matter, dabbling in other fields and passing themselves off as “multi-media” artists is painful for the multifaceted pretense and mediocrity it usually implies. So with skepticism brandished like a broadsword, I descended into Ia Galerie D’Art Lavalin to see Brian Eno’s i%e Quiti Room, an audio-visual environmental installation produced as a part of the Montreal New Music Festival 1990. Upon entrance, one is in the ante-chamber, which serves as an acclimatization zone for the main exhibit. In the ante&amber the o-l&5

Although there are Native Canadian artists who express their lives through Western conventions, this is still from a Native Canadian’s point of view, and cannot be fully appreciated by an individual brought up in Western society.

Underground on modem alternative music. They were the ultimate cult band: bu Reed, John Cale et al never made any money, but the four studio Velvets L.Ps are required listening for any rock fan. For a new alternative band to cite the Velvets as an influence is now redundant, meaningless: it simply goes without saying.

The rest of the tracks range from merely boring (Ride’s “European Son,” Chapterhoe’s “Lady Godiva’s Operation’? to utterly atrocious (The Telescopes’ “Candy Says,” The- Wedding Pre+ent’s cowardly attempt at “She’s My Best Friend”). So: a couple bright spots, some passable tunes, and lots o’ crap. All in all, a pretty shitty record. Better luck with Volume Two.

by Sandy Atwal Imprint staff The centre of the music universe changes often and unpredictably, but there’s no mistaking where it lies, because EVERYTHING gravitates toward it Currently, the Man&n craze is creating a vortex of wah-wah guitar rhythm and funky drum beat, sucking everything within hearing range, cloning it to resemble as much as possible what has notoriously become known as thal Stone Roses’

mund. One example of a successful band doing this funky dance thing is The Soup Dragons. Rather than waiting for their own Muse to appear, they just borrow the one that The Stone Roses’ have been (ab)using. It’s not entirely fair to lob The Soup Dragons in with the rest of the Manchester clan primarily because they’re from Glasgow, not Manchester. Although I don’t buy into the “we’re not geographically close to Manchester, so we’re not influenced by them musically” line, The Soup Dragons use gospel choirs and reggae toasts and more sampling than you’ll find used by any of the other Manchester bands. Their sound is distinct from say, The Charlatans or Inspiral Carpets - residuals of The Sotip Dragons’ first two albums

The fist single, ‘I’m Free” is a cover of a Rolling Stones B-side, and the song is easily recognizable, but this Mancunian version is designed to get you on the dance floor, and The Soup Dragons go to extreme lengths, fusing a reggae toast and a gospel choir. The result is a kinetic musical trip which whirls the listener down several aural avenues at the same time. My personal favorite on the album, is ‘Mother Universe”, an eclectic mix of drum machines, careless whispers and powerful pop. The song is also a good taste of The Dragons’ psychedelic injection which mixes well with the band’s other influences allo&ng the Dragons to add even more colours into their musical melange. . This album shows that The Soup Dragons’strength is in balancing just the right number of chefs to properly stir in the adequate number of tape loops, drum machines and samples. The end result is just the right groove for danceaholics to find some refuge in.
